"Creativity is a highfalutin word for the work."
—Ray Kroc
How to Airbrush Real Fire
In the history of airbrushing, few custom painting airbrush techniques have taken the industry by storm like flames. While many custom painting trends fluctuate over time, flame jobs have remained in the highest demand. For professional airbrush artists, knowing how to paint flames is a necessity--and the more realistic, the better. No matter what an artist's skill level, the need to airbrush real fire is one that will be encountered time and again.
From vehicle designs to helmets (and even to eclectic jobs like computer CPUs), those who airbrush real fire can corner the market, bringing repeat business. Airbrush artists step up to the challenge of flame creation that is both expressive and realistic, and instructional books, DVDs and flame-focused airbrush classes sharpen their skills. Classic instructional books like How to Paint Flames by MotorBooks Workshop take artists through the development process in stages, while recognized experts like the legendary Craig Fraser teach viewers how to airbrush real fire in DVD guides and demonstrations. Certain instructional guides focus on motorcycles, cars, or application on miniature hot rods.
One of the most famous flame artists in all of airbrushing, Vandemon, also has a series of must-have instructional airbrush videos. His ultimate Vandemon Complete Video Guide to Flames video starts with the simple principles of basic fire layout and design, and then guides artists through learning to airbrush real fire through the techniques of pinstriping, masking, and multi-color implementation. For those looking to master the flame trend's hottest and trickiest design, the ghost flame, Vandemon walks artists through the process of pattern transferring, spray-painting techniques, and equipment like reducers and the electro pounce machine for stunning, authentic ways to airbrush real fire.

I like #6 - to me, the sun shining through the bridge at DeVos Children's Hospital are rays of hope for all the sick children, and one day they'll be back outside, healthy, and enjoying all the world has to offer.

I completely agree with gardengazer. Some of the best works were at the lesser known venues (although it was great to get away from the crowds on Saturday!). The Top 10 is a total bummer, because there is some real talent out there that is sitting undiscovered in teeny tiny venue. Hopefully they'll change it up for next year, or maybe the media can showcase some of the smaller venues and that will help get the word out and away from silly giant bugs and people spraypainted in bronze.
Interesting! I kept smelling it today and assumed someone was burning their leaves, which I don't often smell being in the city limits. I can only imagine how acrid the air is near the wildfire itself if we can smell it in Michigan.
Donate it to GRPS and they should set it up at Creston High School. Their mascot is the Polar Bears.

The Gilmore Girls have become our family treat. We watch one a night, two on Fridays, from the boxed set. It is the 50s family all over again, with popcorn, wine and tv dinners. But I don't think we could do this with current shows anywhere but on public television. The commercial interruptions are too jarring, too loud and unpleasnt, too much a reminder of everything we hate about the common culture and about the fundamental, underlying predatory motive in media.
There's a trend here worth watching. If other people are like us, then lots of folks are getting drama in 45-120 hour chunks -- perhaps the longest works of drama ever assembled. They make Wagner operas seem short. It may be very important for aesthetics to note that, in the 21st century, the age of the sound bite, drama in excess of 100 hours became well established as a cultural institution. There are all sorts of fine questions to ask: what new standards come into play, with drama of this length? How do the old rules apply to the new medium? Is it still reasonable to expect that 100 hour dramas have beginnings, middles, and ends?
I suppose that this development has already been prefigured, in soap operas. Perhaps that is right. I suspect though that soap operas aren't unities in quite the way some of these pieces are unities. The West Wing follows the Bartlett presidency through eight years. The Gilmore Girls track's Rory Gilmore's high school and college. These shows have at least a chance of coherence.
Perhaps it is not ultimately possible to make a 100 hour drama. But that's worth talking about.Posted by shea0017 at February 8, 2006 9:49 AM

no problem Sarah, as I figured it out, and its only a mistake. When you think you figure it out let me know. I will keep looking for those notes I recorded a long time ago.

Sorry, her name is actually Aisha (sometimes with at 'y') Benhima -- Ahmed was her husband.

No worries!! It was really curiosity more than anything. I did try googling but didn't have any luck. I found one woman who I *thought* it might be - Ahmed Benhima, wife of the former Moroccan ambassador to the U.N but something contradicted it (can't remember what) but that was all that I could find. I will keep y'all posted if I decide to take a trip!

Sarah, my apology...I tore my office apart looking for that info I saved, and still could not find it. I am still looking & when and if I do I will post it.If I could"just remember the name as I tried hard at the time to memorize it. I hope you do go to Extremadura, to Trujillo, and maybe Pascualete. What a wonderful trip it would be for you!

Anita did you ever find the real names of Salima and Fatima? I also would love to know who Casilda was!! I recently moved to London, and since I'm so close to Spain I thought maybe I'd go down there for a visit. There's a parador in Trujillo that looks amazing and maybe I could see Pascualete!

I still believe that her books hold a lot more fact than many others are willing to believe. I guess the same critics might think that God is fictional, based on the many different descriptions and forms he takes, and the lack of physical proof. Just a thought...
posts on 6/24/2011 7:07:02 PM
I too, read the Preface in her book, and now I think, we can put this minor "dispute" to rest and move on. Let's face it, Aline's books are nothing short of wonderful. Marvelous characters,fully of mystery and espionage. That is what is so appealing not to mention her references to Spain's Peerage and Social community. The balls the parties, The hunts,and all the rest of it. Frankly I am saddened that she won't be writing any more since this last book published in Spain. Truly, the "End Of An Era".

Thank you Roseanne! I'm so glad that other people take the time to read the Preface of a book.

The Spy Wore Red was published as an autobiography. While there is no disputing the fact that the Countess embellished her escapades, I would not go so far as to say that her first book was a fictional memoir. Suffice to say, however, that we all knew, and know, that her purpose was to entertain, as she states in her foreward, and she has succeeded in doing so.

My hat's off to October Mist. This is what I've been preaching for years. The Edmundo Lassalle as Top Hat that Aline created is a man that never was. He was a lover but never a model for 007. The proper category ought to be FICTIONAL MEMOIR. Anita: Thanks! If I had your address I'd send a bouquet of roses. PS I'm now working on a spy novel set in Barcelona

438,000 jobs eliminated in six months … Three words that could torment Obama … Charlie Cook sees a photo finish … Hagin may be the longest serving president aide since Roosevelt era … McCain takes a holiday … Schmidt centralizes McCain campaign … Obama's "emergency news conference"
Good Friday morning. It's Independence Day. A takeaway from HBO's seven-part "John Adams" miniseries was that the Founders were human. Could we have done it? What side would we have been on? We're grateful for their foresight and salute the guts of those serving today.
N.Y. Times A1 – "Outlook Darker As Jobs Are Lost And Wages Stall": "Apart from the 62,000 jobs eliminated in June — and 438,000 since January — most workers lost ground to inflation last month, the Bureau of Labor Statistics reported."
A well-known Republican gives FREE ADVICE to the McCain campaign in the new National Journal. In a "Political Insiders Poll" on Sen. Obama's "biggest vulnerabilities," the unnamed panel member says: "McCain can undermine Obama's entire candidacy with just three words uttered daily: 'JUST NOT READY.' "
A Democratic member of the panel on McCain: "Every time McCain gets off the airplane, he hikes his pants up like a GRANDPA. That does not speak to voters' hopes for the future."
Paul KRUGMAN flays McCain campaign tactics as "Rove's Third Term."
***CHARLIE COOK in National Journal: "Democrats should be beating the daylights out of the GOP in this election. And yet general election trial heats match the private expectations of most pros on both sides: This will be another very close election. Most analysts probably give Obama a bit of an edge, but nowhere near as big as betting pools predict."
Several outlets report that Sen. Obama may move his acceptance speech out of Denver's Pepsi Center (capacity: 19,000) and into the Broncos' stadium, Invesco Field (capacity: 76,000+)
The L.A. Times' Doyle McManus: "The unusual move … would be an echo of John F. Kennedy's acceptance speech in 1960. Kennedy delivered his address before thousands of supporters at the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum. Obama's big moment also would fall on the 45th anniversary of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.'s 'I Have a Dream' speech, delivered at the Lincoln Memorial in Washington, D.C."
The Denver Post's "Politics West" blog: "Obama, who will become the first African-American major party nominee, spoke in an interview with The Denver Post of a desire to include more people from the public at the convention."
BTW, the Obama campaign shot down reports the convention might be cut from four days to three.
***CNBC today runs the "Great American Brands Marathon," complete with its own logo, hosted by Donny Deutsch. 10:30 a.m. Eastern: Wal-Mart. 12:30: UPS. 1 p.m.: McDonald's. 2 p.m.: Nike. 3 p.m.: American Airlines.
Guess which one Jill Hazelbaker will TiVo.
JOE HAGIN, a White House deputy chief of staff who is one of the longest-serving members of President Bush's inner circle, told friends Thursday he is leaving the week of July 20 to take an undisclosed corporate position. Hagin has been an absolute constant at the president's side since his campaign days, kneeling in the rubble at Ground Zero as Bush spoke into a borrowed bullhorn on Sept. 14, 2001. Hagin's stints with both Presidents Bush apparently give him the longest cumulative service as a presidential appointee since at least the Roosevelt administration. "Combined with my time in previous administrations, I have had the honor and privilege of working here at the White House for almost fourteen years," he wrote in an e-mail to friends, saying he had been "blessed to work for such a decent, honorable and caring man."
Hagin, whose middle name is the apropos "Whitehouse," was an operational wizard who handled some of the president's most sensitive assignments: orchestrating the secret trips to Iraq and Afghanistan; helping create the Department of Homeland Security; setting up a Western White House at Bush's ranch; and masterminding the renovation of the Situation Room, Eisenhower Executive Office Building and the press briefing room. In short, Hagin manages everything around the president and the presidency except politics and policy. As an astute young friend put it, he is the single junction where Bush's personal life, presidency, security and military support all come together. Colleagues say he revolutionized the way the Secret Service, White House Military Office and the White House staff work together to support the president at the White House, Camp David, on the road and at the ranch.
The WashTimes' Jon "POTUS Notes" WARD visited Hagin in his West Wing office, and remarked on his low-key departure announcement: " 'Stay in character to the end,' he said … "I don't see any reason to change the way I operated on this date.' … Only chief of staff Joshua B. Bolten, his deputy Joel D. Kaplan, adviser Barry Jackson, administrator Linda Gambatesa and [media affairs] director Jeanie Mamo have been in or near Mr. Bush's inner circle since he took office almost eight years ago."
The Cincinnati Enquirer gives the news a big headline tease on A1: "Indian Hill native: Bush aide Joe Hagin will leave White House role."
The New York Sun drives insider conversation by speculating about New York Attorney General Andrew CUOMO running to succeed Mayor Bloomberg next year: "Mr. Cuomo, an ambitious politician who lives in Manhattan and was born in Queens, would be following in his father's footsteps. Gov. [Mario] Cuomo ran for mayor in 1977, losing to Mayor Koch."
THE MOST VIVID EXAMPLE SO FAR OF OBAMA'S QUEST FOR A BIG MAP -- After a day in North Dakota, Sen. Obama will stage a family picnic in Butte, Mont., as part of what AP's Jennifer Loven calls "a red-state Fourth of July": "[T]he campaign is making a serious play for red states like Montana and North Dakota, building up an extensive ground operation, buying television time and sending the candidate in for a visit. Obama's first two ads of the general election race are running in 18 states — seven of which have gone Republican in the last several elections, including Montana and North Dakota."
AP's Matt Gouras, in "Obama looks to turn Montana blue in the fall": "Only two Democratic presidential candidates have carried Montana since 1948. [LBJ in '64 and WJC in '92. Even Bob Dole won there.] … With just three electoral votes and its reputation as a red state, Montana rarely sees presidential candidates in the summer before a general election. … But Obama has been spending a sizable amount of time and money on Montana, hiring a state director and staff."
Sen. McCain is down in Ariz.
At today's picnic, who will be the first Ward to get beaned with a beanbag?
WashTimes banner: "State Department – Passport workers snoop in files of famous: Probe finds no procedures to prevent, detect, punish."
TALKRADIO/BLOG ALERT -- Warren P. Strobel of McClatchy Newspapers: "A State Department passport record system that holds personal data on more than 120 million Americans is wide open to abuse and unable to prevent or detect unauthorized access, investigators said Thursday. The review by the department's inspector general was ordered after revelations in March that State Department employees and contractors had accessed the files of presidential candidates Hillary Clinton, John McCain and Barack Obama. The IG report found a much broader problem. Investigators surveyed the records of 150 high-profile Americans, whose names were selected from Forbes and Sports Illustrated magazine lists and Internet search engine Google's most-searched names. Of the 150 — who weren't named in the report — 127, or 85 percent, had had their passport files accessed a total of 4,148 times, strongly suggesting attempts at unauthorized access."
STEVE SCHMIDT, taking firm hold of McCainland, e-mails his 11 regional campaign managers a memo (later released by the campaign) explaining that they are so important they will now have less autonomy: "In order to strengthen our regional operations and provide better coordination between our headquarters and the regions, we are going to be adding a political director and a field director to our headquarters organization. … By putting emphasis on our regional operations and hiring experienced managers such as you, we have built a campaign that will be nimble when it counts and close to the ground where grassroots activity will drive our message and efforts."
TALKING POINTS MEMO'S GREG SARGENT: "Upshot: Before long, the McCain campaign will look much, much, MUCH more like the Bush operation in 2004. Another upshot: The Obama campaign will probably not be able to count on the McCain camp's incompetence and inability to gain organizational or message traction for much longer."
TOP STORY – At what ABC's Charles Gibson called "an emergency news conference" in Fargo, N.D., Obama recommitted to withdrawing all combat forces from Iraq within 16 months after earlier telling reporters there: "When I go to Iraq and have time to talk to the commanders on the ground, I'm sure I'll have more information and will continue to refine my policies."
ABC's George Stephanopoulos: "On Iraq, he can't afford a shift. And the Obama campaign knows that and acknowledges it. That's why they called the press conference today. If there was any indication he was shifting positions on Iraq, it would enrage his Democratic base. But it would also create unease among swing voters who wonder whether he's ready to be commander in chief. As one of Obama's aides put it to me, they have to believe he can handle the keys to the car. That's why he can't afford to be uncertain or uneasy at all on Iraq."
CBS's Dean Reynolds: "Barack Obama sounded surprisingly willing to change his position on Iraq" with his first remarks.
NBC's Lee Cowan: "If there was any confusion, he said it wasn't his fault. He blames the McCain campaign."
N.Y. Times, A1, col. 1, top of page, "Obama Fuels Pullout Debate With Remarks: Talk of Refining Plan to End War in Iraq," by Michael Cooper and Jeff Zeleny": "Sen. Barack Obama said Thursday that he might 'refine' his policies for Iraq after meeting with military commanders there later this summer. But hours later he held a second news conference to emphasize his commitment to the withdrawal of all combat troops from Iraq within 16 months of taking office. … Mr. Obama said at his first news conference on Thursday that he planned a 'thorough assessment' of his Iraq policy when he visited that country this summer. …
"In his second news conference, Mr. Obama laid out his proposal in less ambiguous terms. 'Let me be as clear as I can be,' he said. 'I intend to end this war. My first day in office I will bring the Joint Chiefs of Staff in, and I will give them a new mission, and that is to end this war — responsibly, deliberately, but decisively.' … Mr. Obama added that when he had spoken earlier about possibly refining his policies, he was referring to questions about how big a residual force should be left to train Iraqi forces and conduct counterterrorism operations, not the overall timeline for withdrawal. … [Republicans] are trying to put him in the political equivalent of a double bind: painting him as impervious to the changing reality on the ground if he sticks to his plan, and as a flip-flopper if he alters it to reflect changing circumstances."
WashPost A1 lead story, "Obama May Consider Slowing Iraq Withdrawal: Candidate Says He Remains Committed to Ending War."
AP, "Obama says Iraq trip could refine his policy," by Jennifer Loven in Fargo, N.D.: "Democrat Barack Obama struggled Thursday to explain how his upcoming trip to Iraq might refine, but not basically alter, his promise to quickly remove U.S. combat troops from the war."
The N.Y. Times' Patrick Healy in a piece about how Rs seem to have a new Obama message every day: "McCain aides said Mr. Obama's comments about Iraq on Thursday provided perhaps their best opening yet to diminish his image. It came after weeks when they said they were struggling to portray Mr. Obama as a stereotypically two-faced politician who was willing to recalibrate his positions on Second Amendment rights (after a Supreme Court decision last month) and on public campaign financing (after he said he would pay for his fall campaign with private donations)."
"NOT SEARCHING FOR MANEUVERING ROOM" – OBAMA DURING HIS SECOND AVAIL YESTERDAY – ""We're going to try this again. Apparently I wasn't clear enough this morning on my position with respect to the war in Iraq. ... I have said throughout this campaign that ... I would bring our troops home at a pace of one to two brigades per month and at that pace we would have our combat troops out in 16 months. That position has not changed. I have not equivocated on that position. I am not searching for maneuvering room with respect to that position.
"What I said this morning and what I will repeat because it's consistent with what I've said over the last two years is that in putting this plan together, I will always listen to the advice of commanders on the ground, but that ultimately, I'm the person who is making the strategic decisions."
"NOT WEDDED" – On CNN's "The Situation Room" on Wednesday, Obama chief strategist David Axelrod was asked by guest host John Roberts: "If the commanders on the ground said we have to stop, we have to take a pause, however long that pause may be, would he be open to that, or would he want to continue the withdrawals?"
AXELROD: "I think he will take the advice, not just the advice of the commanders on the ground, but his general assessment of conditions on the ground in calibrating that withdrawal. He said he thought we could get one to two brigades out a month. But he's not wedded to that in the face of events. No president would be. And he's always said that he's never said that this withdrawal would be without any possibility of alteration based on events on the ground. That would not be a prudent thing to do for any president."
PRESSWATCH – The Chicago Tribune runs L.A. Times reporters' copy thusly: "By Peter Nicholas | Chicago Tribune Newspapers."
SPORTSBLINK, from AP: "Red Sox stop losing streak with win over Yankees: Jon Lester looked like he did when he threw a no-hitter six weeks ago. The New York Yankees looked like they have in their recent struggles. Lester threw a five-hitter and the Boston Red Sox ended a five-game losing streak with a 7-0 victory over the Yankees on Thursday night in the opener of a four-game series."
Economic cycles come and go. It's fun to watch politicians associate each other with them, good or bad, as if they actually had something to do with prosperity of a downturn.
three words that will haunt McBush
"438,000 jobs eliminated"
GOPs Digital Insurgents Attack Obama
They can't beat presidential candidate Barack Obama on real issues. Their brand is a decisively damaged commodity devoid of integrity and credibility. Conservative and Republican hacks are down to their last few mud pies filled with moronic distractions, rhetorical flack and schoolyard logic. They pray that voters will forget the damage from a decade of deception until the polls close on Election Day.
However, in the deceit decade, you just can't run around the schoolyard talking trash and spreading lies. When you want to disseminate big or better lies in the Information Age, you have to go digital. Realizing Obama attracted the best of the new media geeks to push his message to the masses, assorted GOP insurgents figured they could beat the Illinois politico at his own game. Viral media, innuendo and reverse logic have become their remaining weapons of mass distraction.
In the interest of full disclosure, I am an ex-Republican, activist and 2006 District of Columbia mayoral candidate recruited by the Republican National Committee's minority candidate program. Fortunately, genuine friends and contacts of integrity never abandoned me when I left forever on principle to be an active and proud full time Independent. As such, these very reliable sources have confirmed for me that much of the pushback and blogging that candidate Obama is receiving on his own website is actually coming from embedded GOP activists acting as disgruntled supporters.
It's attack politics by digital camouflage, and will become more intense as we get closer to the Democratic Convention, up to Election Day. The objective is to break, or at least minimize by about 20 percent, the Obama phenomenon by getting diverse issue-oriented supporters to attack him and each other. The FISA (Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act), Iraq war and patriotism issues are the second phase of the divide and conquer strategy. Phase three, around September, is alleged to become nastier, repetitive, more personal and deceptively scorched earth.
Driving and smearing the "flip-flop" theme on issues Obama has consistently answered, and tactically outlined in stages, the operatives hope to generate the levels of viral media and cable TV buzz mainstream media needs for raising summer news ratings. The GOP's twenty percent solution is just enough to cause doubt and diminish Obama's popularity across a spectrum of voters. Many of these operatives and sycophants still believe a marginal or dirty win is still an acceptable victory. The Obama campaign absolutely needs to not take any vote for granted.
Unfortunately, there will be some casualties in the new media wars. Most of the collateral damage will affect determined Hillary Clinton supporters and single-issue liberals who emotionally can't get with Obama's shade of centrist politics. Most of them are locked on issues that disable them from signing-on to the politics of the greater good. Let's not forget those who would prefer to cut their own throat rather than change to a different comfort zone. Collectively, they're all still hard pressed to vote for John McCain while choosing to be in political purgatory. Then again, people that emotionalize their vote rarely use it in a rational or constructive way.
Election 2008 is truly the Democrats' to lose. Barack Obama recognized this early on by not playing the GOP's game, being more politically agile, and regularly affirming his core beliefs. Nevertheless, desperate Republican elephants could still trample a multitude of Democratic mules that choose not to walk toward Obama's horizon.

When President George W. Bush went to his first Group of Eight summit in 2001, a dominant issue was the dollar -- the strong dollar, that is. The U.S. currency was on a record-setting streak, and the free-marketeering president wasn't going to stand in the way.
On the eve of Bush's last G-8 appearance, the dollar's gyrations are again in the crossfire. This time, it is a weak currency, upended by slumping growth, a housing recession and record gas prices, that is gnawing away at the world economy.
The dollar's 41 percent drop against the euro during Bush's term writes the economic epitaph of an administration that set out to restore American preeminence. Instead, Bush heads to Japan next week for his final international summit with diminished leverage as Russian and Chinese influence grows.
The United States needs new leadership and not more of the same.
Why are the Democrats Not Pulling ahead of Republicans? Because of the same old same old...

INVESTOR'S BUSINESS DAILY | Posted Thursday, June 28, 2007 4:20 PM PT
Immigration: The Senate's 53-46 defeat of the immigration bill Thursday was more than a victory for rule of law over alien amnesty. It was a triumph of citizens' will over politicians' disdain. Real reform
The Bush-Kennedy immigration reform bill is dead and unlikely to be served up again before a new administration takes office. No wonder. It was a pork-laden spending bill that offered de facto amnesty to illegal immigrants, federal contracts to the usual contractors, spoils for businesses that habitually hire illegals, and new layers of bureaucracy, supposedly to speed immigration entries.
The only people it didn't reward were those not looking for cash largesse, citizens who ask only that the federal government show the will to enforce existing laws.
Over two decades, border and labor laws have been so neglected that some 20 million illegal immigrants have entered the country with impunity. No lawmaker blames himself for this state of affairs. He just insists it's a question of more money.That's why grass-roots Americans took legislators aback with letters, demonstrations and phone calls, the latter in such overwhelming volume that they crashed the Senate switchboard on Thursday, sending a message that words couldn't quite match.
politicians not only tried to shove this bill down voters' throats. They repeatedly implied that voters weren't smart or reasonable enough to understand why they were doing it. They blamed talk radio, as if their constituents were sheep. They also made the bill long and secretive.
All that did was fuel voter anger. In turn, lawmakers declared war on their constituents, calling any who questioned the bill "yahoos," "bigots" and "simpletons." President Bush, who had a key role in crafting this bill, fell into some of this, warning against letting details "frighten people."
The bill's co-sponsor, Massachusetts Sen. Ted Kennedy, took a lower road, calling the bill's opponents Nazis. What opponents really sought, he bellowed on the Senate floor Thursday, were "gestapos" to remove illegals, contemptuously confusing anyone seeking rule of law with a proponent of a lawless police state.
Majority Leader Harry Reid called talk-show critics of the bill "generators of simplicity" and vowed they'd eat their peas sometime. "We will come back," he said. "It's only a question of when."
South Carolina Sen. Lindsey Graham pandered to La Raza activists by way of the Southern-guilt card, saying illegal-immigration opponents were "hatin' on people who aren't from around here."
All of these efforts to distort the government's failure to enforce the law and blame voters are signs of a Senatethat's out of touch. Rather than having a civil debate taking the issue piece by piece, starting with border enforcement law, moving to a guest worker program and then resolving how to deal with the millions of illegal aliens, as most Americans favor senators insisted that pork be doled out first and that the same failures that began with the 1986 amnesty be repeated.
With this kind of "reform" off the front burner, maybe the Senate can spend the time remaining until next election listening to what voters really want and build from there. Arrogance always fails in a representative democracy. Defeat of this bill was a wake-up call to politicians to remember those who elected them."
So the Two Poltical Parties who control the Election Process in the USA...got together and managed to get Two Senators..both arrogant..both disrepectful of the American People..Nominated for President. And Both VOW to push the Kennedy-Bush Plan through Congress.
There's Eveready and then there's Neveready. Neveready is the Republican logo, it was amply demonstrated by Geroge W. Bush and would be perpetuated by John McCain. If we elect Never Ready the delcine of America begun by George W. Bush will culminate in the destruction of America.
This logo epitomizes the Republican Party.
Let's hope for a depression before November--at least affecting the pickup driving rednecks who live in the rural areas of the US. I would love to see them in a world of pain.
Your wish is granted - but if you think it's only going to affect those you don't like, you're sadly mistaken. All Courtesy of and brought to you by the Republican Party. There's a soup line waiting for you.
The Democratic Take On Letting the American People have their Votes On Massive Legalization Plans..be counted...on ballots in November..In Special Election..by Refrendum...EVEN GERMANY...GOT TO VOTE BEFORE THEY RE-UNITED WITH EAST GERMANY.

John 6:60, 66 On hearing it, many of his disciples said, "This is a hard teaching. Who can accept it?"... [66] From this time many of his disciples turned back and no longer followed him.
Luke 8:14 The seed that fell among thorns stands for those who hear, but as they go on their way they are choked by life's worries, riches and pleasures, and they do not mature.
Luke 8:13 Those on the rock are the ones who receive the word with joy when they hear it, but they have no root. They believe for a while, but in the time of testing they fall away.
Hebrews 3:13 But encourage one another daily, as long as it is called Today, so that none of you may be hardened by sin's deceitfulness.
1 Corinthians 15:33 Do not be misled: "Bad company corrupts good character."

The round of 32 in the annual Bidvest Namibia Cup produced a few shock results with some of the big guns falling by the wayside.
All matches in the Bidvest Namibia Cup were preceded by a moment of silence in memory of the late Minister of Education Dr Abraham Iyambo, who was laid to rest in Windhoek on Saturday.
The biggest upset in the weekend's action was the early elimination of two time winners Civics FC. The mighty Civilians were knocked out of the cup by minnows United Stars (7-6) in a dreaded penalty shootout after a goalless stalemate in Tsumeb on Saturday.
Another premiership outfit casualty came in the form of Tura Magic, who suffered an early exit after a 3-1 rout by Hotspurs at the Sam Nujoma Stadium in Windhoek on Saturday.
The defeat marked Woody Jacobs' first game in charge of the MTC Premiership League rookies following his unceremonious departure from Ramblers less than a week ago.
Jacobs' former team Ramblers easily cruised through to the next round with a 7-1 hammering of lower division opponents Pubs FC in the opening match in Tsumeb, yesterday.
Newly promoted Northern Stream Division One team, African Lions, recorded the biggest win in the round of 32 when the Otjiwarongo outfit drowned a hapless River United FC by 13 unanswered goals. The latter hails from the country's 3rd tier league in the Omaheke Region.

Please be aware of the following press release.
Updated Statement by Tommy HillSovereign Grace Ministries Director of AdministrationNov. 14, 2012Re: Civil Lawsuit Filed Against Sovereign Grace Ministries in Maryland's Montgomery County Circuit Court
Sovereign Grace Ministries (SGM) leadership has obtained a copy of the civil lawsuit filed Oct. 17 against SGM and several pastors from its associational churches. This complaint makes broad allegations that SGM pastors were negligent, resulting in errors and omissions in pastoral counseling and spiritual care, which was voluntarily sought and provided years ago to some families of child abuse victims.
The suit does not allege child abuse by any current or former pastor of SGM or any church associated with SGM. The suit does not allege child abuse by any employee or staff of SGM or any church associated with SGM. The suit does not allege any child abuse occurred on any SGM property or any church associated with SGM.
SGM leaders provided biblical and spiritual direction to those who requested this guidance. This care was sought confidentially, as is a right under the First Amendment. We are saddened that lawyers are now, in essence, seeking to violate those rights by asking judges and juries, years after such pastoral assistance was sought, to dictate what sort of biblical counsel they think should have been provided. SGM believes that allowing courts to second guess pastoral guidance would represent a blow to the First Amendment, that would hinder, not help, families seeking spiritual direction among other resources in dealing with the trauma related to any sin including child sexual abuse.
SGM is not in a position to comment on the specific allegations at this time, but upon review it appears the complaint contains a number of misleading allegations, as well as considerable mischaracterizations of intent. Legal counsel is preparing responsive pleadings.
Child sexual abuse is reprehensible in any circumstance, and a violation of fundamental human dignity. We grieve deeply for any child who has been a victim of abuse. SGM encourages pastors from its associated churches to minister the love, grace, and healing of God to any who have suffered this horrific act.
SGM is committed to integrity and faithfulness in pastoral care, as are the pastors of local congregations. We take seriously the biblical commands to pursue the protection and well-being of all people – especially children, who are precious gifts given by the Lord and the most vulnerable among us. These biblical commands include fully respecting civil authority to help restrain evil and promote righteousness as Romans 13 instructs us. SGM also encourages the establishment of robust child protection policies and procedures based on best practices.
SGM churches are separately organized and constituted in their respective communities. They voluntarily partner together for certain aspects of their broader common mission: to plant churches, develop resources, train pastors and serve international ministries in order to proclaim the good news of the Gospel of Jesus Christ. We ask that you please join us in praying that God guides and leads all of us in these challenging circumstances, ministering his grace, comfort and peace to all who are affected by this situation, and that His truth would prevail.

The original and first zoo, Noah's Park, was a huge success until a seemingly innocuous burst water pipe turned out to be much worse than anyone expected. Experience a drier and more modern wildlife sanctuary with today's Groupon as this voucher allows for discounted entry to one of the UK's finest zoos, the Broxbourne Paradise Wildlife Park, for just £6.40.
Paradise Wildlife Park is home to an array and variety of animals from tigers to tapirs, from lions to lizards and a whole raft of activities and play areas for kids to let off steam during half term. Each of the animal species have their own well-designed and dedicated areas that allows them room to move around, as well as having some of the country's finest veterinary and recovery rooms and animal food preparation areas. Each of the zoo keepers are both highly trained and extremely knowledgeable and are only too happy to engage with visitors, young and old.
Broxbourne Paradise Wildlife Park is situated just off the M25, a short drive away from London, and has been around for more than 50 years. However, it is only since the 1980s, when the area was purchased by the Sampsion family, that it's reputation has genuinely been enhanced. With a commitment to totally overhauling the facilities and to the quality of its animal care, Paradise Wildlife Park has risen to become Hertfordshire's top visitor tourist attraction and is rightly proud of a record for global animal conservation that Noah himself would be proud of.
What people are saying...
"What a great day out. I've just come back from a day out with my nephew at the Paradise Wildlife Park in Herts. It's not that big, which is great for the little one's legs and lazy Uncles. That said it's not small either so you will not be disappointed. The selection of animals to observe is good too ranging from ants and cockroaches up to the BIG CATS and trust me they are big...Seriously go, it is a fantastic day out, which in comparison to other events for kids, is not that expensive and to so see the smiles at the end of the day was worth every penny."

After a recent incident where you made very public your exasperation in a totally over-the-top reality television kind of way - which led to some kind of finger pointing reprimand from an authority figure (including that lowly ranked shopping mall guards) - your confidence to vent further, publicly, has been dealt a knock. Looking on the positive side, the good thing with you not being on a reality television show right now is that you are free to take your scheming underground and deliver your hit swiftly, viciously and unexpectedly, or take your time to plan a masterpiece of vengeance in due course.
Barnacles, Flavonoids and Neutrinos are all supremely starred in a celestial big screen swashbuckler type way not unlike the enthusiastic upper swipe of D'Artagnan in The Three Musketeers, showing in all good movie houses now.

Guest Opinion
Ducks need to keep wrestling
MY VIEW ? The pure sport plays a special role in Oregon
By David Gillaspie
, Aug 7, 2007 (4 Reader comments)
This is an open letter to Dave Frohnmayer, president of University of Oregon, and Pat Kilkenny, athletic director of University of Oregon, about the recent decision to cut wrestling from the university?s roster of interscholastic sports.
Like both of you, I come from a unique place in America, small-town Oregon. Because of our shared roots, we can agree a state is more than its major cities. We also know that small towns ? the sort of places we came from ? make Oregon special.
In many small towns, wrestling season is the only season on the calendar. As wrestling goes, so goes the town. Burns wouldn?t be complete without a wrestling parade. Through wrestling, kids from small-town schools gain a certain inner quality they carry the rest of their lives.
With the home gym packed for a duel, friends of wrestlers see firsthand one of their own mix it up on the mat. No helmets or gloves or cleats. They see a guy in shoes and a singlet go head-to-head with someone just like them.
At the end, win or lose, the friends see their buddy walk over and put his warm-ups back on. After a loss they see him standing alone. It?s this guy they remember when they have to take a stand.
A wrestler is more akin to regular students, someone they can relate to. He?s in the science lab, playing trombone in band, doing the extras. He runs an extra mile, works an extra hour. That he asks so much of himself encourages his friends to do the same.
You?ve both seen these kids on Oregon college campuses. Kids with a little more bounce in their step, fresher gas in their tanks. These are the kids you want to point to as University of Oregon graduates. They are Ducks for life, and you don?t want to lose them.
Young wrestlers from small towns throughout Oregon have their hearts set on joining the tradition of Duck Wrestling. That is their dream.
In North Bend, for example, the dream began with Coach Dave Abraham. He wanted guys who could cut it in Eugene. He sent many who tried. If you were good enough, you might be a Duck. In the last few years of his coaching career, even Coach Abraham became a Duck.
High school wrestling needs the dream of University of Oregon Wrestling.
Robin Reed, arguably the greatest American amateur wrestler, came from Portland?s Franklin High School. On his travels before the 1924 Olympics, he stopped at Iowa State long enough to teach proper wrestling.
Richard J. Sanders of Lincoln High School headed for Russia after the 1972 Olympics to show them how the local boy works the mat. Sanders and Fred Fozzard of Marshall High were the first American World Freestyle Champions.
They are wrestling history, and they belong to us, as much as Duck Wrestling belongs to the greater wrestling family. University of Southern California won?t cut football and UCLA won?t cut basketball, sports with distinct associations to those schools. Wrestling preserves a unique quality in Oregon, one of only seven states where both name universities have teams.
Duck Wrestling isn?t ready for the archives. A successful UO wrestling team is icing on the cake of a thriving athletic department. Please don?t scrape it off.
David Gillaspie of Tigard is a former wrestler for North Bend High School, class of 1973, and a wrestling fan.

Re: Ducks need to keep wrestling
Coming from a small town(in Arizona)myself I can appreciate the perspective and the point Mr. Gillaspie makes. Too many universities have their eyes on the prize of competing with the "BIG" schools in the nation that they have lost sight of those that they were created to serve first and foremost. In this case, citizens of Oregon and the surrounding Northwest. Access to higher education is gained not only through a hoop, field goal or even honor roll. Some talents are brought out on the mat. And remember, just because someone is good at something, it may not be the ONLY destiny for fame. Who knows if that next Nobel Prize winner isn't the one pinning the guy on the mat?

Re: Ducks need to keep wrestling
These are great points. I myself was a kid who got an opportunity to attend the University of Oregon and attain a great education because of the wrestling program. Now, because of a decision by a few people and in this writers opinion not in the best interest of the people of ths great state, many others will not have that chance. This state has produced great wrestlers and individuals over the years, and will continue to do so. Hopefully the University of Oregon will realize the importance of the program and keeping it, and re-instate it. The administration can be heroes if they decide to be a leader for the opportunities of many young men, rather than tow the party line that the sport is being dropped due to changing trends.....Actually the trend is that wrestling is growing at virtually every level in most every part of the country, except at the Big time college level. We all know what has happened in the last 30+ years to many programs across the nation. In my mind that is reason more than ever to stand up and be a leader, be "out front", as I believe the admin used on that fateful day- Friday, July 13th. Be a leader and an example for young people, do what sports are supposed to teach young people....get up, dig your feet in and battle when in a tough spot. Pick yourself up, get tough in a tough sitaution and find a way. Be a team player, have integrity, perseverence. If you want baseball, cheer, whatever else...find a way to do it, but not at the expense of another program with a long proud history such as the wrestling program. When I signed a letter to attend the U of O, the teacher education program was dropped that spring, a major that I was set on going into during my undergrad. I kept my commitment to the university and the program. Now the University should do what is right and keep their commitment to these young student-athletes.

Re: Ducks need to keep wrestling
After the past month and all I have heard about how this whole thing transpired I still am in shock. Wrestling is a sport that has given me everything i have in my life. I came from a very rough neighborhood a family with not alot of money, a family that had one car or no car at times. I did learn the value of a dollar and I learned how to sacrifice with the combination of how I grew up and because of the sport of wrestling. I knew my parents gave me all they could and they were the most supportive parent I could of ever had. I knew we didnt have alot and I knew my way out and my way to achieve high above was to wrestle. My dream came true as I received a wrestling scholarship to a Pac 10 school and was able to wrestle in the NCAA tournament a couple times. Most importantly, I was the first in my family to graduate from College. The sport taught me how to be tough when hard times happened. This sport builds men and builds men of character. I hope the University of Oregon will re-consider and do what is RIGHT and keep wrestling. I want other young men that are in the same position I was in to have the opportunity I had. They deserve a college education and a chance to rise above all.

Comments about Pirastro Cello Rosin:
this product is amazing! I would not like to see new cellist with this rosin tho. wood block rosin is better for younger players and this color of rosin suits soloist. darker rosins are also better for younger kids since they do not have to press as hard on the strings to make a loud sound. I have been playing 6 years now and I do some Orchestra work and solo work and I think this is best for my style.

NYT on Natural Gas and Fracking
The Independent Petroleum Association of America has a pretty good point-by-point takedown of the New York Times's piece over the weekend suggesting that the American natural gas industry is an Enron-style fraud. My favorite part of the IPAA critique is the light it shines on the Times's sources. From the Times:

LOUISVILLE, Ky. – Ancia Purdy of Sonoma State and Katie Warrington of Wilmington University (Delaware) have been chosen as the Louisville Slugger/NFCA Division II National Player and Pitcher of the Week for March 6, respectively.
A sophomore shortstop for the Seawolves, Purdy helped her squad to a 4-2 record last week, going 13-for-22 at the plate (.591) with six runs scored, two triples, three RBIs and eight stolen bases. The reigning California Collegiate Athletic Association (CCAA) Softball Player of the Week, she sported a .609 on-base percentage and a .773 slugging percentage, was errorless in 19 defensive chances at short and managed the walk-off RBI single during a 5-4, Saturday triumph over Cal State East Bay.
Senior pitcher Warrington registered a perfect 4-0 mark from the circle with a pair of shutouts, a 0.54 ERA and three complete games while allowing the opposition to hit at just a .169 clip. The Central Athletic Collegiate Conference (CACC) Softball Pitcher of the Week struck out an incredible 53 batters over just 26 innings and registered double-digit K's in each of her four appearances.

CHIPLEY — The water tower that has been a Chipley landmark for the better part of a century needs to be demolished.
The Chipley City Council declared the state of the water tower an emergency Thursday in a special meeting and set in motion the process of demolishing the water tower.
The water tower, which has stood at the corner of U.S. 90 and Highway 77 since the 1930s, has a bent leg and the top of the tower is loose due to the clamps rusting away, water tower expert Jim Morris told the council.
"In my opinion, the water tower is way too far gone to paint," Morris said. "And I don't think the city wants to spend the money it will need to spend to bring it up to today's standards."
Morris estimated that the tower would need a minimum of $175,000 in repairs to bring it up to code.
He had been asked by the council to give an estimate for repainting the tower, but the condition of the tower was too dangerous for his employees to climb, Morris said.
The tower also has a base coat of lead primer, which would have to be handled with a lead abatement program, Morris said.
City Administrator Dan Miner noted that the water tower had been deemed unsafe 25 years ago. "One of the legs is bent," he said.
If the city had the $200,000 to spend on repairs, it would still cost $5,000 or more per year for maintenance on the tower, Miner added.
Morris estimated the cost of demolishing the water tower at $24,000.
The company Morris recommended specializes in demolishing water towers and the job would take 1-2 days, he said.
"If it puts our citizens at risk, we have to take it down," said Council member Karen Rustin.
"I'm not going to sit here and tell you that it is going to fall down tomorrow or the next day, but it is going to happen," Morris said. "I hate to see it go, but it is time to pull the plug."

The TV show Tribe, or Going Tribal, is watched by millions worldwide. Rapt viewers know the score: ex-marine tough guy Bruce Parry meets tribe, struggles for acceptance, hunts, makes friends, waves tearful farewell. The only people, it seems, who don't rave about the show are anthropologists, some of whom dismiss it as exoticism or exploitation. But would the rest of us have known about these vanishing tribes without Parry? Could living with so many of them give him a perspective denied to anthropologists and ecotourists? Can we learn something new about being human? Lucy Middleton hunted him down.
Why do we need to know about tribal people?
These cultures are in a massive state of flux and many are under threat. We need to realise the impact we have on others. Take sustainability. What we buy comes from so far away that we have no idea what consumerism is doing ...

Hostelworld "meet the world" by Lucky Generals

Woodford, who is also president of the National Advertising Benevolent Society (Nabs) and former president of the IPA, bring almost 30 years of advertising experience to the role.
The 51-year-old will serve as the voice of the advertising industry on Skillset, helping to address the skills issues the industry faces today, and in the future.
His appointment comes at the start of 2011, a year in which product placement is expected to arrive on British TV, the Advertising Standards Authority increases its remit to include online, and the industry faces increasing challenges around government restrictions and censorship.
Stewart Till, Skillset's incoming chair, said: "We are extremely happy to be welcoming such an accomplished member of the advertising industry to our board. We look forward to Stephen's voice being added to the discussion about the future of skills in our industries."
Janet Hull, the IPA's director of marketing, said: "Skillset definitely has the ear of government on the skills agenda. We are working together to define skills gaps, expand our links with higher education, and join forces with other creative sectors – TV, film video gaming, online publishing – to help improve the talent pool from which we all draw."

About Guilherme Ghisoni
I am a Professor of Philosophy born in Tubarão (Santa Catarina - Brazil), with background in photography and music. In 1999 I studied music at London Music School. Also in that period (1997-1999), I did part time courses in photography at Working Men College, at Kingsway College and worked as a freelance photographer in London. In 2004 I completed the Bachelor Degree in philosophy at the Federal University of Paraná (Curitiba/Brazil). At the same university I took the Master Degree in Philosophy in 2006. The concern with the temporal aspect of representation entered the horizon of my photographic works as a consequence of my Ph.D. research (started in 2007 at the Federal University of São Carlos - Brazil), on the role of the analysis of time in the work of Ludwig Wittgenstein. My current woks can be seeing as a consequence of my interest in the contemporary philosophy of time and its bearing on photography.

New Nap is under new management. I had stopped going previously due to its ridiculously expensive mediocre food. Im glad I gave it a go, food is good. Still expensive but good.
Posted by Houghton on 12/30/2010
I've been ordering from new naps for over 10 years, I think. At least 7 years. I love their fries and milkshakes are almost always a must. Even their salads are dank. If your pondering on whether or not to order tonight, do it.
Posted by Anonymous on 06/10/2010
had ordered 2 sandwiches and a side of fries. the fries were not only burnt to a crisp, but were soggy. Basically were burned and were left to sit. then dowsed with what had to be salt. topped with more salt. and of course more salt. the cheesesteak was almost inedible as the roll was left on a oven to keep warm, burning an entire side of the roll. but i can handle that if I were able to stomach the cheesesteak topped with salt, and more salt with a slight hint of pepper and more salt. We had ordered your basic italian hoagie. no onions. so of course we got a italian hoagie smothered in salt. with onions on it. we checked the receipt and wouldn't you know it, no onions on the reciept. to my surprise the reciept had no salt on it. aside from throwing away 18 dollars and two sandwiches and a side of fries. I can assure two customers were left with a very salty taste in there mouths. literally. and figuratively.

Justin Bieber booed for Billboard's Milestone Award speech: 'I should be taken seriously'Add to Favorites | 2014 Billboard Music Awards
Justin Bieber didn't show a whole lot humility when he accepted the 2013 Billboard Music Awards' fan-voted Milestone Award, which is given to an artist who shows the most musical ingenuity and innovation. The Canadian pop star beat out Taylor Swift and Bruno Mars to be the first recipient of the award, and he made it clear that he feels he deserves it.
RELATED: See Bieber being booed video here
"I'm 19 years old. I think I'm doing a pretty good job," Bieber says in his speech. "Basically from my heart I really just want to say it really should be about to music. It should be about the craft that I'm making. This is not a gimmick and I'm an artist and I should be taken seriously."
RELATED: 2013 Billboard Award best and worst moments
The crowd in attendance actually booed for Bieber because of those comments as he went on to thank his manager Scooter Braun, his mother and family and Jesus Christ for his success. While the camera scanned the crowd for reaction shots, Swift could be seen clapping for Bieber's win while his ex, Selena Gomez, sat down almost immediately after Bieber's name was called. This was Bieber's second win of the night.
At least host Tracy Morgan tried to negate the situation, saying, "Don't be booin' nobody, this ain't 'Showtime at the Apollo.'"
