A waterdrop of the BIG size is individual!
The maxiskirt length skirt that a waterdrop of the big big multicolored was printed. I use firm 100-percent-cotton material moderately. Because a hem is changed, describe the silhouette such as the balloon casually; exquisite; bring about a feeling softly. The waist is entire surface rubber. It has the string for size adjustment built-in. Because it is with good lining of the sliding, the comfort is light!

First, I disconnected the electrical power by pulling apart the plug behind the range. Next, I removed the screws holding the service plate on back of the top panel.I removed the switch knob by gently pulling it from the stem. Underneath I found 2 screws holding the switch in the panel. I removed these with a phillips screwdriver.I was able to pull the entire switch out to the rear leaving all wires attached.The new switch looked different from the original and the wires were configured differently but the wires were clearly marked. By removing one at a time and placing it on the new switch to the corresponding marking,it was a simple matter to wire the switch.I reinstalled the switch in the panel,put back in the screws to hold the switch, slid the knob back on the stem, reinstalled the rear panel,and plugged the power cord back in.The switch worked perfectly.

PASADENA, Calif. -- This detail of a Dawn FC (framing camera) image shows scarps, hummocky (eg. wavy/ undulating) terrain and impacts in Vesta's south polar region. The large scarps are most visible in the top right and bottom left parts of the image and partially surround this southern region. Slumping features and landslides can be clearly seen near the base of the largest scarp in the top right of the image. The hummocky terrain near the scarps is probably due to landsliding, but it is unlikely that this mechanism formed all of the hummocky terrain. Impacts have resulted in both the scarps and hummocky terrain being covered in many craters ranging from small to large in diameter. Counting the distribution of these craters can help to date the various parts of Vesta's surface. NASA's Dawn spacecraft obtained this image with its framing camera on August 17th 2011. This image was taken through the camera's clear filter. The distance to the surface is 2740km and the image resolution is about 260 meters per pixel. The Dawn mission to Vesta and Ceres is managed by NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory, a division of the California Institute of Technology in Pasadena, for NASA's Science Mission Directorate, Washington D.C.. UCLA is responsible for overall Dawn mission science. The Dawn framing cameras have been developed and built under the leadership of the Max Planck Institute for Solar System Research, Katlenburg-Lindau, Germany, with significant contributions by DLR German Aerospace Center, Institute of Planetary Research, Berlin, and in coordination with the Institute of Computer and Communication Network Engineering, Braunschweig. The Framing Camera project is funded by the Max Planck Society, DLR, and NASA/JPL. Image Credit: NASA/ JPL-Caltech/ UCLA/ MPS/ DLR/ IDA

Abell continued talking about his top receiver and top 2008 prospect. "He's such a powerful young man," Abell said. "6'3, almost 6'4, 210 and a 4.55 guy. He's very explosive and dynamic for high school football, just like you would expect for someone going to Virginia Tech. He can go and get up over smaller defensive backs. There are games he takes over both sides of the ball and that's why he's heading to Virginia Tech."
Although recruited as a wide receiver, Coach Abell notes that McCoy could play a variety of positions at Virginia Tech. "Probably wide receiver in college, though really, Tech sees him as a guy who can do either/or. He can play on the other side of the ball and I think that's another attractive thing with [McCoy.] He could probably play whip or rover there also."
Prior to committing to Virginia Tech, McCoy had yet to receive offers from other schools. They were not far away, however. "At this point, Tech was the only one that offered," Abell noted. "I think within the next month, he would see a ton. Florida liked him and wanted to see more tape on him. UVa was the same way. To be honest, he was prob the most important and highly recruited player I've ever had here. Nebraska, Notre Dame, Florida and of course all the locals like Maryland. He gets lots of letters from everyone."
McCoy, who will likely attend Tech's one-day senior camp, ended up with 29 catches for almost 900 yards, just over 30-yards per catch for a run oriented attack at Amherst. He also amounted 78 tackles, 7 sacks, and 2 interceptions including one for a touchdown in leading Amherst to a state championship in 2006.

While Chicago and Indiana try to overcome injuries to their top players, the Milwaukee Bucks have gotten out to the early lead in the Central Division. They'll look to get off to their best eight-game start in 11 years by earning just their second victory in the last 13 meetings with the visiting New Orleans Hornets on Saturday night. Milwaukee (5-2) had one of its better performances of the young season Wednesday, leading by as many as 32 points in a 99-85 victory over Indiana. The Bucks find themselves ahead of the division's projected top two as Chicago plays without former MVP Derrick Rose and Indiana continues on without star forward Danny Granger. "We played some of our best defense in the first half and some of our best offense as well," coach Scott Skiles said. "We moved the ball well. Overall, it was a very well-played game." Brandon Jennings and Monta Ellis scored 16 points each while Samuel Dalembert added 14 for the Bucks, who had a season-low six turnovers after com...

A 28-year-old woman was arrested by the Kurar police on Sunday for allegedly kidnapping a two and a half year-old girl from her neighbourhood when she was playing outside her house in Malad (East).
The accused, Ashadevi Saroj, took Monica Thakur, the girl, to her residence after luring her with an ice cream around 12.30pm on Saturday.
Not finding her, the family members of the girl panicked and they asked for their neighbours' help in searching for her. Later, they filed a case of kidnapping with the Kurar police.
Some locals informed the police that Saroj had a girl child sitting in her house. On searching her house, the police found the missing girl. Saroj told the police that she had two sons and was longing for a daughter. She also said that she brought the child home as she found her to be pretty.
"Saroj seemed to have slapped the child and burnt her hand with a hot stick. She was crying. Saroj also bought new clothes for her and took her pictures," said a police officer.
The Kurar police had to convince Saroj that she could keep the child. The child was later handed over to her parents while Saroj was arrested under section 363 (kidnapping) of the Indian Penal Code (IPC).
The child lives with her parents and two sisters at Azad Hind society in the Pimpripada area of Malad (East). Her father, Sanjay, 30, works as a security guard.

What can I do if my husband won't help with the baby or the housework?
I'm grateful that I can stay home with our 6-month-old, but my husband doesn't realize that while his job is Monday through Friday, mine is seven days a week. It's like pulling teeth to get him to watch our 6-month-old for half an hour so I can take a shower or just get a breather. He won't change a diaper unless I ask, and then he gives me a hard time about it. The same goes for feedings or even giving the baby attention. I can't get him to clean, cook, or help with the laundry either. I'm exhausted and I never have time for myself. What can I do?

I had the same problem. I worked two jobs and was going to college full time and taking care of my 5 year old at the time. I finally had enough when my baby turned 5 months old and I left him because I just couldn't take it anymore. This will not help everyones situation but I felt that this was the only way that I could survive. At least your husbands were working my now ex husband didn't work or do anything. My daughters are now 10 and 5 and I did just fine. I graduated from college and we are doing well. Everybody's situation is different but you have to do what you have to do. I did and it worked out better than expected. I think everyone (women) go through this you just have to hang in there and do your best.posted 02/13/2006 by Lillian29
I think at first our husnabds are afraid that they might break the baby so they step back too see how it is done. as soon as that 4th mounth come's around the dads are good to go unless they just don't care. it is always good to talk to your spouse not scream and fight. you do not want your child to see that or hear that. becuse thats not love and the way you treat the dad in front of the child well that might be the same way your child just might treat thier spouse. so love not hate and talk thing over as far as the help around the house tell him how you feel and any MAN not a boy will take care of is women when she needs him most and that gift from GOD called the baby. hope that helped love you stay cool and love your slef no matter what take care of your self for the baby. no one can make you feel low un less you allow them to.posted 02/09/2006 by bean36011
I have gone (am going) through some of this with my husband too - both our families live on the opposite side of the USA so we don't have that as a source of help either. Along with taking care of our 9 month old girl, I work part time... My husband and I have a very good relationship and we have had many conversations about why he doesn't want to help out as much as I would like him to. A lot of it seems to be just a natural reaction to having our lives change so drastically after our girl was born. We've decided moms HAVE to change immediately because things need to get done (feeding being number one). Men on the other hand can't do a lot at first which means they can enjoy their freedom a bit longer and are more likely to fight "the change" of life. My husband would go fishing (as usual :) ) for a whole day on the weekend - He would ask me if such a thing was ok with me, and me - not wanting to force him to stay home - always said he should do what he needs to do for himself. Finally, (after venting to a good friend of mine), I decided to have a serious talk with him. Going by my friend's advice, I planned to only talk with him about it for 10 minutes and then stop. There would be no yelling and if there was, the conversation should be postponed. I told him that I felt he was not doing what he could be. He was either always on the computer or watching TV. I told him that it might be a good idea for both of us to write a list of things that they do around the house on a daily or weekly basis. He wasn't so sure he liked this idea (mostly because he new his list would have very little on it). Being the humorous guy that he is, he suggested writing a list of things that annoyed us that the other person was doing. We kept a list for one week and kept it in the kitchen counter. We titled them too because that made it more fun. His read "Jeffrey's Julie list" and mine read "Julie's Jeffrey List". I thought this "Bad list" thing was going to be pretty hurtful but it actually turned out to be a great idea! He had little things on his list like I left the rag on the floor, my jacket on the floor when I got home, didn't put my shoes away, etc. I had a heck of a lot more, especially when he came home, layed on the couch and watched TV till he fell asleep while I fed our girl, bathed her, put her to bed, made her cereal for the next few days (I make my own from scratch), cleaned the kitchen, and so on... You moms, I'm sure, know what else was on there. The next day, my husband approached me with a smile on his face and said he saw my list (I had filled almost a page in one night with word like "jeff still sleeping while I make cereal"). I told him, the sad thing is that happened a lot. Since then, he has really been helping. Even though he still has some lazy nights, he is getting better at letting me have a few at times. He always did rotate nights with me on who gave her a bath but now when its my turn to bathe her, he cleans the kitchen or puts her toys away or something else thats helpful. I hope you consider doing this technique, just remember to make it a fun thing and laugh about what goes on the list. If anything, it will help him understand what you do. So far its really helped us and if he starts slacking again, I jokingly tell him I'm going to start a list again. I've realized that men are much different than women. I think we think we can alter our husband's behavior by praising them for good things or nagging at them for not doing other things. Instead of that, we should just be straight forward and let them know what they need to do (specifically at specific times). At least that's how my husband listens best - he still doesn't do everything I ask but he listens :) . This experience has really helped me learn how to communicate with him in a way where he understands :) Be just as simple as "Me woman, him man", hee hee. Good luck to us all :)posted 02/04/2006 by a BabyCenter Member
Maybe you can try to set up a schedule with him for free time, alternate nights cooking dinner and set up a chore list. I'm sure if you talk to him about it he'll be understanding. My husband was the same way with our two kids who are 2 yrs and 5 months. He probably doesn't even realize he's neglecting his part of the responsibilities.posted 02/03/2006 by AidenWilliamsMom
With our first baby my husband did not help. With our second baby I was not going to put up with it again, so I started working part-time on his days off. Then he had to care for both of the children. We just had our third baby (I quit working when I found out I was pregnant)and now he takes an extremely active role in our baby's care. He dosen't help around the house, but holding and playing with the baby and our other 2 children for an hour can yeild amazing results around the house.posted 02/02/2006 by a BabyCenter Member
I work 45hrs per week and my husband works 40hrs per week. He still throught it was MY JOB to take care of the baby. I was tired of fighting so I had to come up with something. My baby is 5 months old now so what I do is...say to the baby infront of my husband "now tell daddy to change your diaper or tell daddy to feed you". It seems to work well. Now he helps out alot more because my son is getting more attached to him. Try It!!posted 02/01/2006 by a BabyCenter Member
My husband was given three weeks paid paternity leave from work. I really enjoyed spending the time with the three of us together; however, for one entire week, I left the house for entire day. This worked wonderfully! He learned all about our daughter and how to care for her. Now, because he has a whole new undestanding, he helps care for her a lot! Previously, he wasn't always quick to help because he didn't know how to! When they are on there own - they learn real quick!posted 02/01/2006 by a BabyCenter Member
Hello everyone, I am 22 years old and I have 3 children. My oldest girl will be 4 in February, my youngest girl is 14 months, and my newest addition is a handsome boy that is 2 1/2 weeks. Not to mention my boyfriend's oldest child from a former girlfriend, she is 5. When I had the baby I had to have an emergency c-section that I was not counting on which has required me to have a lot of help. My sister is temporarily living with me cooking, cleaning, taking care of the girls, and helping me and the new baby in the process. My problem is my boyfriend. Right now he is going to work from 6:30am to 4:00pm and going to school until 8:00pm 3 days a week. I understand he is very busy and very tired and I appreciate that he is doing everything he can to support us. But while all of this is going on I feel very lonely because I don't feel like he is appreciative towards me for putting myself through all of this is well. I don't feel he is trying to understand what I am dealing with. I am stressed out, my horomones are out of whack, I am in pain, my body is ruined, and I feel kind of hopeless sometimes. What can I do to get him to understand and to get him to show me a little more love?posted 02/01/2006 by jflow83
I'm a work at home mom (15 -20 hours/week) of a 2yo girl and a 7 month old boy. I agree that I've never worked harder in my life, and my house is still not as clean or organized as I would like! My husband is a wonderful dad and husband, but he never intuitively senses when I need a break. He works full-time, goes to school part-time, and has a long commute, so when he is home he wants to relax. Since the baby has become more interactive, I can really see him enjoying their time together more, and the same thing happened with our first -- I think some men have trouble finding interacting with a newborn that exciting. Sometimes on weekends he takes the 2yo with him while he runs errands. I still have the baby, but it is a break of sorts. I also try to spend at least one day a week out of the house. We do toddler gym, playdates, and storytime. It is tiring, but I come home to a clean house and the kids have had fun and are really tired at bedtime! The main thing that seems to be working for us now is that I've given up on having everything done before he comes home. I save laundry for weekends so he can at least be in the same room as the kids while I get things finished up. And since he gets home sort of late, I feed the kids dinner and give them their baths while he's driving home so that we have just relaxing family time when he's home. I save the dinner dishes for the morning and that frees up my time to spend with him, too. I wanted it to be like a tv show from the 50s -- clean house, well-mannered kids, the works. Instead I have a semi-organized home office and focus on making sure the kids have plenty of walks, art and music activities, and home cooked meals. But I have to admit, I still feel like I have almost no privacy, and I get jealous when I think about his daily lunch hour -- I can't even imagine what i would do with a whole hour to myself 5 days a week! Good luck, ladies!posted 01/31/2006 by PeninahandNolansMom
I am sorry, but that behavior from the man who made that baby with you is UNACCEPTABLE!! If talking to him doesn't work, then plop the baby down with dh on his day or night off and just leave the house. He will quickly learn how hard you work and why you need help.posted 01/31/2006 by marnijill

LT will sign with Chargers for 1 day and retire today
Tomlinson spent much of that game on the bench, wearing his helmet and a large jacket. Many fans and others, including some teammates, perceived he had abandoned his team in one of the franchise's biggest games ever. Tomlinson maintained he could not have played and that he was simply devastated on the sideline, having worked so long to get that far in the postseason.
The emotional Tomlinson departed the Chargers two years ago somewhat acrimoniously. He and the team reworked his contract after the 2008 season. In the lead-up to that restructure, Chargers General Manager A.J. Smith criticized Tomlinson in an interview. In his farewell news conference, Tomlinson said he could see himself coming back to the team once Smith departed.
After Tomlinson left, some Chargers players expressed a feeling that the team chemistry might be better without Tomlinson's presence. Feelings were hurt when Tomlinson made comments about the offensive line. Smith fairly routinely took veiled barbs at Tomlinson. For his part, Tomlinson said last October that the Jets were the best organization he had played for.
But there was also a feeling that time had healed wounds.
Rivers received notice for comments he and tight end Antonio Gates made before the 2010 season about there being a different aura in the locker room with Tomlinson gone. Rivers meant no disrespect then and maintains a lot of respect for his former teammate.
When apprised Friday of the plans for Tomlinson, Rivers pulled out of a long-scheduled appearance today in Los Angeles to attend the Chargers Park ceremony.
"I wanted to be there for it," Rivers said. "You feel fortunate to have an opportunity to play with a Hall of Famer. That's no doubt what he is."
Tomlinson said his appearance at last month's memorial service for Junior Seau also served as a sort of litmus test for him.
"This was unbelievable, to be honest with you — the reception that the fans gave me," Tomlinson said after speaking at the Qualcomm Stadium ceremony and being warmly acknowledged by fans throughout the night. "I didn't know what to expect coming in."
He signaled then that bygones were bygones.
"That was the emotional side of things when changes were happening," Tomlinson said of the things said a few years ago. "Now, we're all in a better place. We all have moved on from that time. Change is hard. And so this is not only closure (for) Junior, but it's kind of like bringing me back here."
A Charger once.
A Charger always again.

Celtic winger Aiden McGeady will sign for Spartak Moscow in the next 48 hours, reports the Scottish Sun.
Hoops boss Neil Lennon will get all the £9.5m windfall to pursue three new signings for the SPL title bid.
Lennon said: "Aiden was in on Saturday and more or less said his goodbyes, so we'll see how that develops over the next couple of days.
"He is going to Moscow to get the deal finalised. In that respect, the sooner it is done the better. I won't be relieved when it's done as I'll be losing my best player. But we feel it's good money for a top player.
"I know he was initially apprehensive about going, but having spoken to him on Saturday he seems a lot more settled about the idea of going there.
"You never know what might happen at the last minute, but from what I gather it should get done over the next few days.
"Aiden is going to a big club in a big city.
"This is what he wanted to do, so all we can do now is wish him the best.
"There is no doubting Aiden's natural talent. What he did under Gordon Strachan was improve physically. He's a fantastic athlete, allied to his natural talent."
McGeady has been given permission to miss the Republic of Ireland's friendly against Argentina on Wednesday to finalise the move.
Ireland boss Giovanni Trapattoni said: "We let him go to do what he must do. Maybe he'll go to Russia but at the moment he's not with us."

So lift those heavy eyelids
What if people could easily function with much less sleep?
Jon M at Sociological Speculation asked that question after observing that "new drugs such as Modafinil appear to vastly reduce the need for sleep without significant side effects (at least so far)." At extremes, as Jon M noted in a follow-up post, modafinil allows a reduction to 2.5 hours a night, but "the more common experiences seem to be people who reduce their sleep by a few hours habitually and people who use the drugs to stay up for extended periods once in a while without suffering the drastic cognitive declines insomnia normally entails." In fact, alertness is not the only reported cognitive benefit of the drug.
The US brand of modafinil, Provigil, did over $1.1 billion in US sales last year, but for the moment let's dispense with the question of whether modafinil is everything it's cracked up to be. We're speculating about the consequences of cheaply reducing or even eliminating the need for sleep for the masses.
If I can add to what's already been said by several fine bloggers – Garett Jones at EconLog on the likely effect on wages, then Matt Yglesias at Slate sounding somewhat dour about the prospect, and Megan McArdle at the Daily Beast having fun with the speculation – the bottom line is that widely reducing the need for sleep would be a revolutionary good, as artificial light was.
For a sense of scale, there are about 252 million Americans age 15+, and on average they're each awake about 5,585 hours a year. Giving them each two extra hours a night for a year would be equivalent to adding the activity of 33 million people, without having to shelter, clothe, and feed 33 million more people.
Whatever objections critics have, sleeping less will be popular to the extent that people think the costs are low. For all the billions of dollars spent trying to add years to their older lives, obviously people would spend more to add life to their younger years. Who ever said, "If only I'd had less time!"?
Consider that the average employed parent usually sleeps 7.6 hours each workday. He spends 8.8 of his remaining hours on work and related activities, 1.2 hours caring for others, and 2.5 hours on leisure and sports.
If he spends more time working productively (i.e. serving others), that's good for both him and society. The time and effort invested in birthing, educating, and sorting people for jobs is tremendous, so getting more out of people who are already born, educated, and sorted is just multiplying the return on sunk costs.
That's a godsend for any society undergoing a demographic transition after the typical fall in birthrates, because aside from hoping for faster productivity growth, the specific ways to address having fewer workers per retiree – higher taxes, lower benefits, more immigration, or somehow spurring more people to invest in babies for decades – are unpleasant or difficult or both.
And if he uses extra hours to pursue happiness in other ways, that's generally fine too. A lot of people may simply get more out of their cable subscription. Others will finally have time for building and maintaining their families, reading, exercising, or learning a skill.
Yes, once a substantial number of people are enhancing their performance, others will likely have to follow suit if they want to compete. But then, that's also true of artificial light and many other technologies. If people naturally slept only four hours a night and felt rested and alert, who would support a law forcing everyone to sleep twice as long, cutting a fifth of their waking hours so that everyone would slow down to the speed that some people prefer to live their lives?
I don't think most people have such a strong presumption in favor of sleep. We like feeling rested, or dreaming, but not sleeping as such; a substantial minority of Americans sleep less than advised despite the known costs, and so reveal their preference for waking life over oblivion.

Question of the day: how do you enforce "universal background checks?"
A part of the legislative gun control package and executive orders President Obama has set in motion includes this:
Mr. Obama would require background checks for private sales between individuals, including those at gun shows and via the Internet. Expanding the checks is the "single most important thing we can do," a senior administration official said.
Sounds reasonable on the surface, right?
But then the deeper question – how would this have to be accomplished?
Well, let's see – there's no way to track how well this law is being followed unless you are able to identify all the guns that this requirement would cover. And, of course, it would cover every existing gun out there now, right? Isn't that what "universal" means?
So what is required?
Ah, gun registration. Every single, solitary gun that is legally held by the public would have to be registered so the Fed could then track sales and ensure that "proper background checks" were executed. If not, then we have a new crime with which to prosecute citizens and populate our jails.
Oh, and the crimnals? Yeah, they'll play along, won't they?
Can't wait to watch the gang-bangers in Chicago line up to register their guns and do background checks before selling them.
Absurd. And useless.

Just in cased you missed it, our problem STILL isn't revenue
I continue to be stunned by the apparent willingness of all involved on the left to whistle past the graveyard when it comes to understanding what our fiscal governmental problem is and how to fix it. Here … let's try a picture:
Oh, look … it's spending. Specifically, spending on entitlements and interest on the money we've borrowed to do so. And what are we talking about cutting? The military, of course. Because, you know, it is in the blue slice of the pie. Make sense?
Pac Man's revenge. By 2050, he will have swallowed all of the blue.
But, hey, it's "absurd" to argue about raising the debt limit. By the way, does anyone remember when Sen. Obama declared that raising the debt limit signaled a failure in leadership?
Ahem …

The reason for the mess in Mali?
One word: Libya. Seriously… many of the armaments and fighters came from Libya and their fight there to overthrow the government. All, of course, aided and abetted by the Obama administration and their brilliant foreign policy.
Over the last four years, the United States has spent between $520 million and $600 million in a sweeping effort to combat Islamist militancy in the region without fighting the kind of wars it has waged in the Middle East. The program stretched from Morocco to Nigeria, and American officials heralded the Malian military as an exemplary partner. American Special Forces trained its troops in marksmanship, border patrol, ambush drills and other counterterrorism skills.
But all that deliberate planning collapsed swiftly when heavily armed, battle-hardened Islamist fighters returned from combat in Libya. They teamed up with jihadists like Ansar Dine, routed poorly equipped Malian forces and demoralized them so thoroughly that it set off a mutiny against the government in the capital, Bamako.
A confidential internal review completed last July by the Pentagon's Africa Command concluded that the coup had unfolded too quickly for American commanders or intelligence analysts to detect any clear warning signs.
And finally:
Then an American-trained officer overthrew Mali's elected government, setting the stage for more than half of the country to fall into the hands of Islamic extremists. American spy planes and surveillance drones have tried to make sense of the mess, but American officials and their allies are still scrambling even to get a detailed picture of who they are up against.
Now, in the face of longstanding American warnings that a Western assault on the Islamist stronghold could rally jihadists around the world and prompt terrorist attacks as far away as Europe, the French have entered the war themselves.
Exceptionally well done, no? /sarc
That's what leading from behind brings you — oh, that and "Arab spring".
Can you imagine what will happen when Syria finally collapses?
Debt ceiling: Orwell just missed it by a few decades
The more I see politics of today the more I think George Orwell simply listed by about 30 years. Imagine a politician a few decades ago trying to make this argument and then calling the other guy's argument "absurd".
"While I'm willing to compromise and find common ground over how to reduce our deficit, America cannot afford another debate with this Congress over how to pay the bills they've already racked up," Obama said in the East Room of the White House at what aides have billed as the final news conference of his first term. "To even entertain the idea of this happening, of America not paying its bills, is irresponsible. It's absurd."
But the problem is, thanks to both Congress and this administration, we are not paying our bills. We're borrowing money that we don't have and have been spending it. I find it ironic, that the president who has run up the largest deficit in history is talking about being irresponsible.
And then, there's this:
"They will not collect a ransom in exchange for not crashing the American economy," Obama said. "The full faith and credit of the United States of America is not a bargaining chip."
But that is precisely what Obama is doing, using the credit rating of America as a bargaining chip – to justify more spending on credit. No irony there. Interesting that Obama is suddenly concerned about "not crashing the American economy" when his profligacy has put us in a position we are in today.
"The issue here is whether America pays its bills," Obama said. "We are not a deadbeat nation."
Yes we are. He just doesn't know it yet, or at least won't admit it. And much of the cause rests with him as signified by his absurd argument.

Economic Statistics for 11 Jan 12
The following US economic statistics were announced today:
Export prices in December fell -0.1%, while import prices rose by 1.1%. On a year-over-year basis, import prices are down -0.1% and export prices are down -1.5%. Softening prices may be a harbinger of economic slowdown, but, on the plus side, we can expect inflation to remain restrained in the immediate future.
The the US trade deficit expanded to $48.7 billion in November, a $6.6 billion increase from October. Apparently, though, this is a one-time surge due to imports of the iPhone 5 from China.

On September 10, the FDIC approved a final rule to clarify that deposits in foreign branches of U.S. banks are not insured. The impetus for the rule was the U.K. Prudential Regulation Authority's (PRA) (formerly the Financial Services Authority) proposal to prohibit banks from non-European Economic Area countries from operating deposit-taking branches in the U.K. unless U.K. depositors in such branches would be on an equal footing in the national depositor preference regime with home-country (uninsured) depositors if a bank were to fail and require a resolution. The FDIC believes that U.S. banks seeking to comply with the PRA proposal likely will change their U.K. deposit agreements so that the deposits are payable both in the U.K. and in the U.S. The FDIC rule is intended to protect the Deposit Insurance Fund against the potential resulting liability that the FDIC could face as a deposit insurer for customers of foreign branches of U.S.-based insured depository institutions. While deposits at foreign branches of U.S. banks will not be insured, they can be treated as deposits for purposes of national depositor preference laws. The rule will not affect deposits in overseas military banking facilities governed by regulations of the Department of Defense. The rule takes effect 30 days from publication in the Federal Register.

Center cockpit or aft cockpit?
I have a CC Cheoy Lee. At 36 feet it has much better accomodations and storage than all the aft cockpit boats I looked at in that size. (Did not find an aft cockpit boat with an aft cabin that was usable for anything but sail storage. (Dislike coffins)Salon is a bit smaller will admit but makes up for it with wonderful aft cabin. It also has a hard windshield that is necessary in rough weather. Passage through is low but have learned to duck - this avoids the common problem of the boat being too high. With a CC docking can be a challange but what boat isn''t. And you are closer to the bow and not that far from the stern. Also for a ketch it has the mizzen aft of the cockpit not in it like Pearson 365 etc.

If your company was subject to an IRS audit, would you be prepared to respond?
A mACCOUNTING's client was recently audited by the IRS. Although we did not prepare the tax return, we were responsible for bookkeeping and controllership services, including maintenance of all accounting records - from credit card receipts, to vendor invoices, to bank statements. With a large number of travel and entertainment expenses claimed on the return, we knew that this was an area that would be examined closely.
Prior to the audit, the IRS agent sent a letter detailing the records that our client would be required to provide. it was no surprise that credit card statements and a detailed list of travel and entertainment expenses were on the list.
While some businesses may struggle with this oversight, mACCOUNTING was able to promptly retrieve statements from the files, along with the receipts, as well as create a printed detail from Quickbooks. For all expenses examined by the auditor, we were able to answer: who, what, where, when and why.
In the event of an audit, a business owner should be prepared to turn over records with the following information:
• Who was present and their relationship to the taxpayer (Who)
• The amount of the expense (What)
• The location (Where)
• The date (When)
• The business purpose or expected benefit of the expenditure (Why)
When the audit was completed ahead of schedule, we received a note from the auditor thanking us for our preparation and oversight. More importantly, the final report recommended no changes to the tax return and the client saved money by having mACCOUNTING involved rather than the tax preparer.
Avoid putting your business at risk. mACCOUNTINGcan help your business prepare for IRS audits with our bookkeeping and controllership services.

Scott Boras says Stephen Drew has a market, Xander Bogaerts going to be 'top five' player
|12.11.13 at 4:28 pm ET
LAKE BUENA VISTA, Fla. ' Scott Boras has spoken.
The agent for free agent shortstop Stephen Drew addressed the media in one of the hallways at the Dolphin Resort and Spa Wednesday, touching on the shortstop's market thus far in free agency.
'He's going to have numerous options to choose from,' Boras said of Drew. 'Obviously there are a variety of teams that want a shortstop of his defensive acumen, capability.'
Throughout the winter meetings, there has been a curiosity regarding Drew's market, with any team (except the Red Sox) who signs the 31-year-old having to surrender a draft pick.
The agent said that while a return to the Sox isn't out of the question, Drew will have the opportunity to choose from more than one scenario.
'Well, I think that's not a decision Stephen has made yet because we have to look at the totality of what's available to him,' Boras said when asked about Drew potentially returning to the Red Sox. 'And some of the offers and positions teams are taking are somewhat contingent on another move. And so, to have a full slate of what's available to him is not yet something that's ripe.'
According to multiple sources, the Red Sox are planning to wait until Drew's market defines itself before looping back in with the shortstop.
Ironically, the player who would take Drew's place at shortstop, Xander Bogaerts, is also a Boras client.
'Clearly. Bogaerts played very well in September. He hit about .270 and his defense was great,' the agent said. 'Bogaerts really established himself in the major leagues. When you've got a young man that age playing in that environment, it's a pretty remarkable achievement.
"I think Xander Bogaerts is going to be one of the top five players in baseball.'

Mason Ohio Luxury Homes: How Much Can I Take Off The Price?
How much is it going to take to buy that Mason Ohio luxury home? The answer is of course: IT DEPENDS! But we can use past performance to give you an indication of what is LIKELY to be the case.
All data is derived from Cincinnati MLS recorded sales, so custom builds or For Sale By Owner homes won't be included.
We reviewed the time period of June 2014 to May 2015, and in that year 87 homes sold for $500,000 or above. $500,000 is the local price used to define "luxury". All homes were located in Mason City School district.
There are of course variables related to motivation:
- Has the owner already moved?
- Are they building another home that is almost completed?
- Is the home being bought by corporate relocation?
- Are the owners in financial trouble?
- Divorce?
- Is the builder just starting the home or is it finished?
A total of 87 homes sold for $500,000 or greater since June 1, 2014. Of those, 68 were consumer owned, 14 were new construction, 4 were corporate owned (relocation company) and 1 was bank owned. As you can see, foreclosed homes in the Mason are practically nonexistent. Short sales are scarce also, with only 1 of the 87 homes sold in that category.
There are a limited number of subdivisions in Mason that can support the values needed for a sale above $500,000 and fewer still when you double that number. Long Cove & Heritage Club are your primary communities for million dollar homes, with Chestnut Hill in the tier just below that.
So back to the question at hand, how much can you expect to take off the price of a Mason luxury home?
We're going to exclude the lender, corporate and builder homes. Fact is with builder homes you're often not taking money off, but ADDING money to asking price as you add the options you want.
Consumer owned homes are the majority (68) of the 87 luxury homes sold. The chart below details the number of homes sold and the bottom numbers list the percentage off list price for the final sale price.
A few key takeaways:
- The average discount from asking price at time of sale was just under 6%.
- The median (half over/half under) percentage discount was 5%.
- There are a smaller number of homes sold giving discounts in the double digits.
What do the last year's worth of luxury sales indicate? That you can expect some dollars off, but most likely 5-6% OR LESS will be the amount of discount you can expect.
Stop and think about it from a seller's perspective. If they REALLY were okay with taking $100,000 less than their asking price, would they be at their current asking price? No, if they were motivated to sell and not just testing the market for highest dollar, they'd move their price closer to what the buyers will be willing to pay.

You then need to stay within range of the flag for ~1 minute (for 1 player) to capture the flag. It goes blue/red when captured and glitches a bit, it can be very hard to tell when it changes colour.
If you leave the flag before it's captured, then any opposition player nearing the flag will turn it neutral, and immediately start capturing it for his own team.
When capturing an opposition flag, it simply stays as it is, but with a white stripe on the logo.
The game takes the number of flags owned by each side, and applies a penalty to your opponent.
e.g. you have 2 captured flags, they have 3 captured flag = -1 points/second for your team.
- "capturing" flags do not count for anything.
- there's lag in calculating the next tick, so wait a couple of seconds to see whether it took effect.
- if 3 defenders and 4 attackers fight over a flag, the attackers are actually capturing the flag during the fighting... (4>3 so it captures at the same rate as 1 ship afaik)
The huge problem is the difficulty in telling whether a flag is captured. (it is not uncommon to leave a flag and have it immediately switch when an opponent enters it's range).
Excellent info.

In this classic text Henry Kamen shows how Spain achieved world power in the sixteenth, seventeenth and early eighteenth centuries by examining crucial political events and foreign policy during the reigns of each of the nation's rulers, from Ferdinand and Isabella at the end of the fifteenth century to Philip V at the beginning of the eighteenth century.
Kamen also explores the essential factors that distinguished the Spanish experience, from the gold and silver of the New World to the role of the Inquisition and the fate of the Muslim and Jewish minorities. He identifies the essential fragility of Spain's material resources as the main reason why it never succeeded in achieving success as an imperial power. He also examines the origins of the eternal obsession of Spaniards with their own failings and alleged 'decline', arguing that the perception of 'decline' distorts what really happened in their history..
For undergraduate courses in Spanish history and Early Modern Europe.

Multitude gathers for epic TV event.
There was an air of nervous anticipation in the Minster Church of St Michael and All Angels in Sunderland city centre.
Latecomers dressed in their Sunday best searched for their seats while those who had been sitting patiently in their pews for 40 minutes sipped the bottled water they had been told to bring.
They had done their voice exercises, checked their hymn sheets and were ready to sing for their city.
At 7.30pm, they burst into the opening bars of traditional hymn Oh Praise Ye The Lord and the sound of 500 Sunderland and district Christians soared around the minster.
The Journal was getting a glimpse behind the scenes at a true broadcasting institution, Songs of Praise.
The BBC's flagship religious programme has been on the air for 41 years and, love it or loathe it, it has come to shape viewers' Sundays.
For many, the sound of hymns being sung and the pictures of packed pews are a sign that the weekend is coming to an end. It is Sunday evening and time to prepare for work.
The programme's mix of Christian music and interviews has proved consistently popular.
Even today it attracts up to six million viewers and up to 10 million more watch overseas.
Songs of Praise will always be centred on Christianity but also contains elements of a travel programme and features well-known people talking about their faith.
Nowadays it boasts a roster of celebrity presenters. The current crop includes Aled Jones, Diane Louise Jordan, Eamonn Holmes and our own Jonathan Edwards. Jonathan, one of the programme's newest presenters, who started last year, was fronting the Sunderland edition.
He agrees that Songs of Praise is an institution and says he enjoys travelling the country and meeting fellow Christians.
"Songs of Praise is hard work just for a half-hour programme. Making it is a massive operation and it has a pounds 4m budget," he says.
"It is a good religious programme and it is helping to change the viewpoint that you cannot be a thinking Christian."
He has a point. Tomorrow's edition, for example, will see Archbishop Desmond Tutu talking about the process of reconciliation in South Africa.
And last January, Songs of Praise put out a programme from Edinburgh for Holocaust Memorial Day.
But the Sunderland recording was along more traditional lines featuring an enthusiastic congregation and interviews with prominent local Christians, including businessman and school sponsor Sir Peter Vardy.
But how do you get your church on Songs of Praise? Despite receiving letters from parishes that would love to be featured, it is the BBC's researchers who make the decision on where to send the cameras.
They run the show, turning the featured church into a television studio for several evenings for rehearsals and then the recording. They also find out about the area's Christian heritage and whom they can interview.
The BBC handles the invitations and makes sure that other strands of Christianity in the area, for example Roman Catholics and Methodists, are present at the recording.
You might think that appearing on Songs of Praise is a matter of singing a few hymns, but it is a lot harder than that.
It lasts three hours and the hymns have to be sung a number of times until they are right. A conductor controls proceedings and gives the congregation tips on how to sing certain parts.
The eventual effect in Sunderland was impressive. After a few attempts, a wall of choral sound enveloped the minster.
Canon Stephen Taylor, who is based at the minster and led a prayer at the start of the recording, was delighted with how the evening was going. "It is good for Sunderland to get on Songs of Praise - it has been a long time since it came from the North-East.
"It is a big commitment for people. No-one will be going home until about 10pm."
But the Sunderland congregation were showing no signs of flagging. They were determined to give a good account of themselves and their city on a televisual institution.
* Songs of Praise from Sunderland will be shown on BBC 1 on May 18.

This Is The Worst Brand Tweet Of The Week
A toilet-paper brand weighing in on the LeBron James news makes for a really crappy social-media moment.
Congratulations, Cottonelle, you have outdone yourself—and everyone else—with this off-brand tweet. Your social-media manager really s*it the bed on this one. (We're holding ourselves back from the sheer number of bathroom puns we could toss out here, but feel free to share some of your own in the comments.)
On the other hand, look how many favorites! If by "favorites," you mean, "I hate this."
(Update: Not to be deterred, competitor Charmin's Twitter account also fired off a scatological LeBron tweet, as commenter Lauren Longo notes):

My question is why does "Cottonelle" need to have a "Verified" count, and just who, exactly would follow them and why?
Aw, I love when other toilet papers try to be as relevant and funny as Charmin. Just go home Cottenelle. There's only room for one TP brand on Twitter.
Not their best work, but better than that ^ https://twitter.com/Charmin/status/487641610084048896
This one is pretty bad, too... https://twitter.com/ItsFlo/status/487636978562002944
I don't even get that, what does it mean?!
Best guess - "Calves" is supposed to be Flo's misunderstanding of "Cavs." Short for "Cavaliers." Get it?
Yeah, in retrospect, the joke (such that it was) really wasn't worth the effort it took to explain.

USDA finalizes new microloan program
Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack announced a new microloan program from the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) designed to help small and family operations, beginning and socially disadvantaged farmers secure loans under $35,000. The new microloan program is aimed at bolstering the progress of producers through their start-up years by providing needed resources and helping to increase equity so that farmers may eventually graduate to commercial credit and expand their operations. The microloan program will also provide a less burdensome, more simplified application process in comparison to traditional farm loans.

Interactive whiteboards are expensive and time-consuming, says teacher Heather Wolpert-Gawron, who writes that the future of education technology will be guided by mobile devices. She writes that mobile technology is less expensive, and encourages student-centered learning and greater access to information. She compares the benefits of mobile technology, such as smartphones, to what she describes as the interactive whiteboards' antiquated style, which still relies on a teacher-focused style of learning.

Customer Raves & Reviews
These invitations will definitely leave guests in awe! The colors are so beautiful and vibrant; it's a brilliant design, really. The pictures were printed very clearly as well (drastic improvement in clarity compared to the last time I purchased the same style of invitations for my son's birthday back in 2013). THANK YOU Magnet Street!
The magnets came out great! The only reason I gave a 4 star is because the estimated shipping date was off by a couple of days which delayed me mailing them late.
Great card
This magnet card served as both an invitation and a "keep-the-date". I wrapped it around sparkly gift-tissue paper everyone loved it. i must warn you tho, *** this invitation is heavier than the regular envelopes and it takes $.60 (one forever stamp + one twenty cent stamp) to mail it out within the US***. overall i was very pleased!!!! oh and the picture is not HD but it looks great.
Birthday magnets
I found the web site by searching a magnet for my dueghters birthday.I am really glad to find this web site because since from the begining customer service helped me every single step immeditely so I highly recomend to everyone.
Excellent Service - Magnet
I am very pleased with the overall service by magnet street. The process is great and delivery times are very reasonable. Their willingness to help in case of any corrections was absolutely wonderful. Thank you magnet street!!

Red Rosa Found?
Maybe, if Jerusalem woman's spit says so
Ever since the Polish-born Jewish revolutionary Rosa Luxemburg was murdered nine decades ago, the fate of her corpse has been a favorite historical mystery for her admirers. (Luxemburg led a brief, failed Communist uprising in Germany in 1919.) Now, thanks to a spit sample from an elderly resident of Jerusalem, the mystery may be solved. A few weeks ago, rummaging through Berlin's museum of medical history, a pathologist named Michael Tsokos discovered a decapitated, limbless female corpse. He immediately thought of Luxemburg, whose name adorns one of the city's bustling streets and whose body was never found. Searching online for living relatives of the felled firebrand, Tsokos came across Irene Borde, a great niece of Luxemburg's who grew up in the Soviet Union and moved to Israel in 1973, settling in Jerusalem. Contacted by Tsokos, Borde agreed to send a spit sample to Berlin, where her DNA will be analyzed and compared with that of the newfound corpse. But the scientist cautioned Luxemburg fans not to get their hopes up: even the most advanced tests cannot indicate a relationship with more than 70 percent certainty.

Narrow your search
The $180 Samsung Galaxy Tab 4 is a fine choice for a budget tablet, but it's ultimately bested by great older devices, and new slates that are cheaper still.
This all-in-one adopts the same curved display as Samsung's big-screen 4K TVs.
The new Ativ One 7 has a sleek white, rounded-edge design inspired by Samsung's Galaxy line of products.
Pricing not available
Provided you take the time to find your way around, iOS 7's new design makes it a compelling upgrade that completely transforms Apple's mobile OS.
Sure, it's cheap, but what exactly are you getting for the $199 price? Let's start with a lack of storage place and a low-resolution screen.
The shiny Samsung Series 7 Ultra has a long battery life and nice design, but its now-older processor gives us pause.
Toshiba's ambitious Kirabook has a screen that rivals Apple's MacBook Pro with Retina Display, and a price to match. It's a solid, useful laptop, but for these prices, the design should really be more exciting.
The Samsung Series 7 isn't the fastest, or the most fully featured midrange all-in-one, but casual PC users should consider it for its affordability and overall polish.
Quad-core CPUs, AMD graphics, and a touch screen fill the near-ultrabook slim Chronos at CES.
A bland effort, the HP Envy 23 has nothing to recommend it over other Windows 8 touch-screen all-in-ones.

BERLIN (ICIS)--Butyl acrylate (butyl-A) sales control at Germany-based chemicals major BASF will remain in place until the end of October and until further notice, a source from the company said on Sunday.
Speaking on the sidelines of the 47th annual European Petrochemical Association (EPCA) meeting in Berlin, the source said: "We will keep [sales control] for October, that's for sure."
The source added that the company was hoping to lift sales control at the beginning of November.
BASF implemented force majeure on butyl-A on 13 June because of production problems at its Ludwigshafen facility in Germany. It was lifted on 21 June and sales control was put in place.
The annual EPCA meeting runs from 5-9 October.
