Is Kristen too 'Kstew'?
My latest girl crush is Kristen which isn't really my style but I've been crushing on it lately. I would probably never use it but is the name too 'kristen stewart'?
I actually quite like her - but I wouldn't want people commenting on it all the time, saying 'Like Kristen Stewart?'
Again, I would probably never use it but was just wondering..?Hazel Naomi ♥ Arthur Redding

Unless your surname happens to be Stewart, it wouldn't get a raised eyebrow from me in the least. There are enough other Kristens that it's not so associated with her.

Daniella Yacobovsky, left, and Amy Jain are co-founders and co-CEOs of BaubleBar, a fashion jewelry e-commerce site that just announced a deal to have a pop-up store in 35 Nordstrom locations. Click through to see some samples of their favorite pieces for entrepreneurs. BaubleBar/Jason Imber
The UpTake: Daniella Yacobovsky and Amy Jain co-founded fast-growing fashion jewelry e-commerce site Bauble Bar, which is launching pop-up stores at 35 Nordstrom stores. It's a crucial step in their big plan to make their brand synonymous with fashion jewelry.
If bib necklaces, one of the big trends for some time, give way to statement earrings, they want to know about it as soon as possible.
Initially, the two bootstrapped their beta site and got a seed round in November 2010 prior to their official launch in January 2011. Their idea that they were filling an unfilled niche for professional women, especially, resonated with investors who came through with a $4.5 million Series A round in April 2012 via Accel Partners and Greycroft Partners.
"One of the biggest pain points that we hit on when we started with is that they really feel like there isn't one go-to place for fashion jewelry where they feel like they are always going to find what they're looking for,"Yacobovsky says. Instead of one place, women end up shopping at 25 to 30 places or randomly picking up a piece of costume jewelry while they're shopping for clothing.
While the founders won't disclose revenues, they have scaled up: their staff numbers now just over 100, triple what it was last year, and now they occupy a few floors of the office building where they were located.
Being their own bosses has been just as rigorous as working in investment banking, the two women agree, although back then quitting time was quitting time. "It's very different now," Jain says. "You're always on, you need to be available. But that's part of the fun of it. It allows you to build faster."
Yacobovsky adds that if you were working on a deal for an investment bank, you may know about the project, but you are shut out of the high-level meetings where the C-suite discusses big plans such as acquisitions.
"We are the C-suite now, so we are thinking through those decisions at a high level," she says. "We are still very high stress and overworked but we are calling the shots which is nice."

The Daniel Bryan versus John Cana match at Summerslam is one that many hope will be amazing. Obviously the hope is that it will be, but the doubt of it all is still present. Many believe that Cena can wrestle well enough to make the match memorable. There was never a worry when it came to Bryan of course.
I think the match will play to the strengths of both men. Cena will play toward a story-telling side, with power spots due to his size and entertainment ability. Meanwhile, Bryan will play toward a technical side.
When Cena did big matches with top wrestlers like Shawn Michaels, RVD, and CM Punk, he was able to wrestle in a 5 star match with them. To me, it wasn't the other wrestler that "carried" Cena. It was the fact that he played toward his strengths during the matches and the others played toward their own.
The question is how will this match go?
I think it's obvious that it will be the main event match of the night. It is for the WWE Championship after all. That means it will be given a lot of time. I'd say that 40 minutes would be enough time to give the two.
Summerslam is a stacked card, and as a result, we're going to be seeing a ton of big matches take place anyway. With that being said, will the LA crowd be dead by the time the WWE poster boy and new age Benoit go at it?
With all the questions regarding the crowd, I imagine that the two will involve the crowd a lot more than most matches on the card do to that point. Since Bryan is so over these days, he plays to them frequently in the first place. They get involved most of the time on their own, but Bryan is known to pump them up when need be. Cena is a professional when it comes to the crowds himself.
You may not notice the little things he does to get the crowd back on his side or against him, but the man knows how to work everyone in the room. This is something that makes him very interesting to watch in big matches. You expect him to be the "TV Cena". However, when the lights shine brightest and the cameras come closer, there may not be a better man who can "turn it on" to make a match amazing currently under the WWE banner than Cena.
CM Punk does well with this too, but Cena can make a total change in style and even wrestling thought in big matches. This is why you want to see what he will do.
In the Bryan/Cena match, we are looking to see if Bryan can win the big one against the face of the WWE. That's at least how we are getting it marketed to us. But the match, in my eyes, will be the match where we see John Cena show he can hang with another great in-ring talent.
With all of the crap on Cena regarding his "5 moves of doom", it escapes the average fan's thought that the man can actually wrestle well.
So the crowd will be interesting to see. Will Cena and Bryan play toward the crowd a lot more than usual or will it be the same as a normal match? It at least is worth a thought that WWE may want them to get a lot more crowd reaction than usual.
Outside of the crowd, you have to market to the people watching live at home. The way to do this is to play to what they want, and that's the wrestling side.
They are already going to play to the crowd with some minor cheap pop ideas. But just like how Punk pulled a piledriver out of the hat to take out Cena randomly, we may see something we did not expect with Bryan/Cena. This will need to happen throughout the match in order for the people at home to remain invested.
To consider a match great, it doesn't take much these days. You simply have to do things unexpected or "out of character". If Cena were to start doing several submissions we've never seen him do, or see Bryan do some power moves. Then I think some of...

The pecking order of democracy is reduced to this: When the president wants to go, he gets to go.
That parsing of the pecking order, though, didn't extend to his personal life or interactions with colleagues.
During any other month, that news alone would have signaled a new world order, an upheaval in the pecking order.
A hierarchy within a social group or community, in which those members at the top assume positions of leadership, authority, and power. The expression originated from a description of social behavior among chickens, which attack each other by pecking to establish dominance.

This is an unsurprising move to me. Money is basically no object to the Angels. They're a pitching and defense model club. This won't change much, except maybe help their offense a *bit* but not much. Unsurprising, but not a particularly great move for the Angels. Just okay, IMO. The best thing is that the Angels didn't have to move any player assets to get the offensive improvement.
This is great for the market however as a team without a perceived lack of a CF now has taken away the #1 option. I guess that means the Freels of the world go up in value just a tad. But for the Angels long term to have the guys they do in that OF and the $$$'s committed to them is not a good thing.

At least Moreno isn't afraid to spend money. And, with reference to John Allen, 'It is his money!"

Sox too cheap for bidding wars
After leading fans, media to believe they were bringing Hunter to The Cell, South Siders lose one-sided bidding war to Angels
November 23, 2007
BY JAY MARIOTTI Sun-Times Columnist
Shocked? What is Ken Williams so "shocked" about? In the Reinsdorfian tradition, the White Sox underbid for a major free agent, making their fans believe they were going guts-out after Torii Hunter when, in the context of a rich 2007 marketplace, they merely were half-buttocksing it. Then they told the world about their offer, a dumb poker move that let the Angels swoop in on Thanksgiving Eve and sign Hunter to a five-year, $90 million deal.
Shocking? Try embarrassing.
Because once again, the Sox have shown they're full of stuffing when it comes to bidding wars. Deep down, chairman Jerry Reinsdorf doesn't want to win such battles, or he and Williams would have been more competitive for Hunter in a period when baseball is flush with wealth -- $6 billion in revenues this year, as Bud Selig repeats every five minutes -- and Sox fans have been filling U.S. Cellular Field the last three years. Don't you just love Reinsdorf? For two decades, he has been centrally involved in trying to build a better industry financially, but once that has been accomplished, he still refuses to play high-stakes, big-boy ball in a major city. You're better off not bidding for Hunter at all than losing him to a more pro-active franchise that makes you look, well, second-rate.
"They shocked me," Hunter said of his new club. "I wanted to be with these guys. I thought maybe they didn't need a center fielder like me but they shocked the world. I love these guys. I want to say thank you, guys, for choosing me. I'm honored.
"I've watched the Angels play for a long time. They play the game the right way, they play hard-nosed baseball every day."
As opposed to the Sox, who suffered the worst offense in the major leagues last season, a plague that won't be helped by the consolation signing of set-up reliever Scott Linebrink.
Consider this the latest significant setback in a bloody, 17-month Sox slide, which includes a 109-135 record since early July of 2006. This is more confirmation that a star like Hunter, who fled Minnesota with the aim of winning a championship, thinks he has a better chance of achieving those goals in Anaheim than on the South Side. "Maybe I can do some damage and get about three rings out of this," he said. More and more, it's becoming obvious that baseball people view 2005 as an aberration for the Sox, a championship that won't happen again anytime soon. The Angels have sustained a consistently high level since their World Series triumph five years ago, primarily because they have an elite manager in Mike Scioscia and a title-driven owner in Arte Moreno. The Sox have a ditzy manager in Ozzie Guillen and an owner who likes to win but only at his price, though Reinsdorf has no problem charging top dollar at The Cell.
Remember: A $100 million payroll in 2007 is equivalent to a $65 million payroll a few years ago. That's how much the baseball business has boomed. It's one thing to pass on Alex Rodriguez during his brief availability window, with Williams explaining at the time, "For our purposes, we would very quickly run the average fan out of our ballpark ... our economic situation wouldn't allow for something like that." But now, the economic situation doesn't allow for Plan B. What DOES the economic situation allow for, gentlemen? A mid-priced alternative like Coco Crisp, I assume, even though fan favorite and '05 character-builder Aaron Rowand is out there in free agency. My guess is, Rowand will end up with the Dodgers because he, too, costs more than Sox management wants to pay.
And brace yourselves, Soxdom, because more surprises could be coming from the Angels at your expense. Earlier this week, Williams made a questionable move in dealing pitcher Jon Garland -- a skilled, durable starter entering his prime at 28 -- for Orlando Cabrera, a fine shortstop who, unfortunately, is 33 and becomes a free agent next offseason. The trade came only days after Williams strangely spent $4.5 million to re-sign another good defensive shortstop, the out-of-shape Juan Uribe. But in relinquishing Garland, all the Sox did was put the Angels' new general manager, Tony Reagins, in a sweeter position to land another player supposedly on the Sox's radar. With a rotation that now goes six-deep and a surplus in center field, Anaheim can put together a much better trade package for a more prized Cabrera -- Florida's gifted, young slugger, Miguel Cabrera -- than the Sox. In the Garland deal, all the Sox did was weaken their rotation, deplete their potential trade pool for Miguel Cabrera and pick up a veteran who might play here one season.
Yep, the Ken Doll is being humiliated by a rookie GM in Disneyland. But the bigger problem is Boss Reinsdorf, who establishes the tone for tighter spending when the Angels seem far more interested in getting deals done and beating the Red Sox, Yankees, Indians and Tigers in an ultra-competitive American League.
What I resent are these orchestrated pep rallies by Williams intended to excite Sox fans -- and, of course, sell tickets. At the start of November, he sounded like an enraged bull in defining his offseason mindset as "Full go." Said the GM: "We have unfinished business. I didn't like the taste I had in my mouth watching (postseason baseball) from my couch."
Then, after dumping Garland, Williams launched into his we're-conquering-the-world speech, saying, "Last year did not sit well with any of us. We'll be damned if we're going to go through that again. We will aggressively pursue a championship. We're trying to win the 2008 championship. We were embarrassed last year."
When some of us doubted the Garland deal, Williams fired back. "People want to examine each deal as it comes along and don't see the big picture being painted," he said. "Hopefully in the next month -- and in my desire, the next week -- people will say `Oh, I get it.' "
Well, I didn't get it when he re-signed Uribe, I didn't get it when he dealt Garland and I obviously don't get it now. Unless Williams pulls off the pipedream of Miguel Cabrera, giving him a half-Cabrera infield, his "Full go" offseason is stuck in the muck. No wonder he suddenly was shy when reached Thursday by the Sun-Times.
"What's to say?" he said of Hunter.
How about this?
He gone.
And now, I'm going to say thank you 89,999,999 more times. Thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you...I want to say thank you, guys, for choosing me. I'm honored.
I wonder what it would take to get Willits. He seems like a decent player who can take a walk and steal a base. He's listed at LF, but I thought he was a CF in the minors. No power. If he's any good defensively, he'd be a cheap option for CF.

Secretary of State Hillary Clinton says the arrest was unwarranted. Congress has proposed cutting aid to Pakistan by $33 million, $1 million for each year of his sentence. Realistically, is there anything that the U.S. can do to help this doctor?
It certainly seems like this is a shot across the bow, saying anyone who ever helps the United States, you know, the U.S. is not going to be there, and you're going to be held accountable by your own government.
PANETTA: It's -- it is so difficult to understand and it's so disturbing that they would sentence this doctor to 33 years for helping in the search for the most notorious terrorist in our times. This doctor was not working against Pakistan.
He was working against Al Qaeda. And I hope that ultimately Pakistan understands that, because what they have done here, I think, you know, does not help in the effort to try to reestablish a relationship between the United States and Pakistan.
TAPPER: Secretary Panetta, can we call Pakistan an ally when they do something like this, when they sentence a doctor who helps the United States find bin Laden, who has killed more Muslims than I can count? How can we call them an ally when they sentence this guy to prison?
PANETTA: Well, Jake, this has been one of the most complicated relationships that we've had, working with Pakistan. You know, we have to continue to work at it. It is important. This is a country that has -- that has nuclear weapons.
This is a country that still is critical in that region of the world. This is a country in which we have to go after an enemy that's located in their country as we have. So we have to continue to try to work with them. It's an up-and-down relationship. There have been periods where we've had good cooperation and they have worked with us.
And there have been periods where we've had conflict. But both countries have a responsibility to work together because we're dealing with common threats. They're dealing with the terrorist threat just like we are.
They've had huge numbers of Pakistanis who've been killed by terrorists. So our responsibility here is to keep pushing them to understand how important it is for them to work with us to try to deal with the common threats we both face. And what they did with this doctor doesn't help in the effort to try to do that.
TAPPER: And you've been in the middle of a very difficult negotiation with the Pakistanis about the lines of transit through which we supply U.S. troops in Afghanistan by using Pakistan and they shut them down after that incident at the border in November. They initially charged about $250 per truck.
They are now trying to charge $5,000 per truck. We already give them – the U.S. taxpayer already gives the Pakistanis billions of dollars a year. And now they're trying to charge $5,000 per truck. First of all, how high are you willing to go in this negotiation? Are you willing to pay more than $1,000 a truck?
And second of all, what are the American people to make of this relationship, when they hear about this doctor going to prison, when they hear about they're trying to charge us, even though we already give them billions of dollars?
PANETTA: Yeah. No, I -- you know, I think the American people are concerned. We're all concerned about the relationship. And at the same time, as I said, we have to do everything possible to try to work with them in order to protect our interests.

29 year old woman | Ocala, FL, USA | Seeking men 25-37 within 50 miles
Looking for someone I can't live without...
I like to think of myself as a single fun-loving female. I have plenty of friends, just have not found that special person. I enjoy drama-free friendships. I recently graduated with my Masters in Nursing from UTK and moved to Central FL to continue to pursue my career dreams. I work in the medical field with Children..I would love to have some people outside of my work environment to hangout with. I would enjoy anything from dating to just platonic friendships. Moving to a new area intimidates me! I enjoy going out to eat, going to movies, and listening to live music. I love to cook and bake. You might even be able to sucker me into going bowling. I love sporting events. Mainly football...and NO, I don't bleed orange. Yes, I went to UTK, but am not a huge fan. Any of my friends will tell you, I spend more money on "Kitchen stuff" than clothes. My ideal date would be preparing and enjoy a meal together, then cuddling on the couch and watching a funny movie. But, I can get dressed up and go out and have just as much fun. I work hard and am 100% dedicated to my job and I would like to find someone who enjoys their job as much as I enjoy mine. I am passionate about nursing and the health of my patients. I am a sucker for a romantic man who knows how to treat a lady. That being said, I also believe in relationships being 50/50. I love doing sweet things for the person I'm with, but I want someone who can appreciate it and not take advantage of it. :) Shoot me an email, you never know where this could go! :P

I enjoy hanging out with friends and family. I enjoy a night in cooking a good meal and watching a great movie. I also enjoy going out and eating at a new restaurant, and maybe listening to live music. I love to bake in my spare time. :) Hungry?

Texas Republican Louis Gohmert Announces He Will Challenge to John Boehner for Speaker of the House in New Congress
This morning on FOX News, Fox and Friends Weekend, US Representative Louis Gohmert (R-Texas) announced that he will be challenging John Boehner (R-Ohio) for the Speaker of the House in the new Congress. Gohmert said, if he is elected Speaker, he would "fight amnesty tooth and nail. We'll use the powers of the purse. We'll have better oversight. We'll fight to defund ObamaCare." Unless the Republican party wants to lose its base forever, newly elected and establishment GOP representatives best vote in a new Speaker of the House. A recent poll conducted by Caddell Associates and commissioned by the People's Poll indicated that 60% of GOP voters want Boehner replaced as Speaker. Voters are tired of the status quo and gutless GOP establishment candidates. The GOP was not given control of the US Senate and a wider margin of control in the House so that establishment Republicans like Boehner can pass bills with Democrat votes. YOUR DAYS ARE OVER.
Gohmert Announces Run for Speaker of the House
Rep. Louie Gohmert (TX-01) released the following statement today regarding his decision to buck the status quo and challenge John Boehner in the race for House Speaker:
"After the November elections gave Republicans control of the Senate, voters made clear they wanted change. There have been numerous examples of problematic Republican leadership, but we were hopeful our leaders got the voters' message. However, after our Speaker forced through the CRomnibus by passing it with Democratic votes and without time to read it, it seemed clear that we needed new leadership. There had been much discussion. But, until yesterday, no one had stepped up.
I applaud my friend Rep. Ted Yoho for putting his name forward as an alternative to the status quo. Ted is a good man for whom I could vote, but I have heard from many supporters and also friends in Congress who have urged me to put forward my name for Speaker as well to increase our chances of change. That is why I am also offering my name as a candidate for Speaker. (MORE)
Rep. Louis Gohmert (R-Texas) said Sunday that he will challenge John Boehner (R-Ohio) as Speaker in the new Congress.
"I'm putting my name out there today to be another candidate for Speaker," Gohmert said on "Fox and Friends."
Gohmert said that after "years of broken promises, it's time for a change."
Rep. Ted Yoho (R-Fla.) on Saturday announced that he would not support Boehner for Speaker.
"This is not a personal attack against Mr. Boehner, however, the people desire and deserve a choice," Yoho said in a Facebook post. "In November, they resoundingly rejected the status quo."
"Eventually, the goal is second, third, fourth round, we have enough people that say 'you know what, it really is time for a change,' " Gohmert said Sunday. "'You deceived us when you went to Obama and Pelosi to get your votes for the cromnibus. You said you'd fight amnesty tooth an nail. You didn't, you funded it.' "
Gohmert said, if elected, he would "fight amnesty tooth and nail. We'll use the powers of the purse. We'll have better oversight. We'll fight to defund ObamaCare."

CNN – State of the Union: Former White House Press Secretary & CNN Commentator Jay Carney says "It's not going to be a good year for Democrats"
Former White House Press Secretary, now CNN commentator appeared on CNN's 'State of the Union' with Candy Crowley and stated, "It's not going to be a good year for Democrats by definition." The majority of the panel agreed that the GOP had the advantage in this upcoming 2014 midterm of taking control in the US Senate.
The Republicans need a net pick up of 6 seats in order to gain control. My person opinion is that because of the nature of the seats held by Democrats in red states being up for election and Obama's poor job approval polling in those states, the GOP will most likely get to a +6, but it will not be a wave election. Too many establishment Republicans are nothing but Democrat light and the establishment still attacks its base as they run on ideas that are no part of the GOP platform.
"It's not going to be a good year for Democrats by definition," Carney said. "The sixth year is always particularly bad for a president's party. You couple that with the fact so many seats are defended by Democrats in red states where Mitt Romney did very well against the president, double-digits in most cases, and there's no outcome in November that anybody could say would be great for Democrats, except for barely holding onto the Senate."
Carney added that this by no means meant the GOP was in the clear. "The problem for Republicans if they win is Americans begin to think that 'we hate Congress' and it is now clear that one party is in control of Congress."

Laura Ingraham Comes to Nashville, TN to Support Joe Carr for US Senate … Beat Lamar Rally … Retire Lamar, Vote for Joe Carr!!!
Laura Ingraham rocks the Millennium Maxwell House.
Conservative talk show host Laura Ingraham came to Nashville, Tennessee in support of Joe Carr in his efforts to defeat establishment GOP US Senator Lamar Alexander in the upcoming Republican primary. At the "Beat Lamar Rally" Ingraham held nothing back and blasted the out of touch incumbent Alexander as a senator who has lost touch with Tennessee in front of a crowd between 600 and 700 people. Laura Ingraham stated out with the old and in with the new as she compared Alexander to an old sweater. Ingraham looks to do for Carr what she did for Tea Party challenger David Brat in his shocking primary victory over Majority Leader Eric Cantor in Virginia.
Facebook: Joe Carr for US Senate
In a speech that seemed to tap into the audience's deep-seated concerns over immigration and the pace of change in the country, Ingraham spoke for 45 minutes to a packed house at the Millennium Maxwell House Hotel that attended a "Beat Lamar" rally for Carr.
Comparing U.S. Sen. Lamar Alexander to an old sweater, a hooked fish, beige wallpaper and a baseball player who has struck out, Ingraham urged listeners to believe Carr, a three-term state representative from Lascassas, can upset the incumbent senator in the Aug. 7 Republican primary.
She said Alexander has failed to stand up to liberals and Democrats, whom she said were more concerned with reshaping America than standing up for their interests.
"I'm here to tell you that he still is not hearing you," she said.
Lamar Alexander
Breitbart.com: Laura Ingraham at Rally for Joe Carr: Lamar Alexander is Old, Out of Touch, In With the New
"I say this, and I mean it: Lamar Alexander, he's probably not an evil guy, he probably doesn't hate the Tea Party, I don't think he knows the Tea Party, I don't think that's what he's about, I really don't," she said.
On amnesty, she explained, Alexander was wrong on the number one issue in the country, citing the recent Gallup poll showing that the issue was at the top of voters' concerns. She criticized Alexander for supporting the Senate "Gang of Eight" immigration bill, working with Senate Democrats like Sens. Chuck Schumer (NY) and Dick Durbin (IL).
"What planet are you living on, are you that naive, that tired, or are you that bought off?" she asked, as the delighted crowd applauded.
Ingraham noted that the modern left was filled with "utter distain" for conservatives and their values, and said today's Democrats weren't the moderate Democrats of Alexander's era.
"They think you are more dangerous any day of the week than ISIS or Al-Qaeda," she said as the crowd booed.
Ingraham encouraged all voters in Tennessee to work hard for Carr in the remaining days of the election to send a loud message to the Washington establishment.
"We have to grab the establishment by the lapels and say very forcefully — No. You. Won't," she said.

Ingraham, who just announced her full support for Joe Carr in her nationally syndicated radio program, said "Tennessee is one of the most beautiful states in America, and deserves a Senator who would rather spend his time with Tennesseans at Cracker Barrel than with lobbyists at elite Washington eateries."
The Restore America: Joe Carr for Senate rally will be held at the Millennium Maxwell Hotel at 7 pm on Tuesday, July 22.
"With tens of millions in our country still out of work and the border crisis worsening, citizens across America are waking up to the shocking failures of the Washington establishment that Lamar Alexander calls home. Electing Joe Carr will be a major victory in this new movement to restore America," Ingraham said.
The American Conservative Union (ACU), gave Lamar Alexander a 60 percent rating for 2013, 68% in 2012 and a lifetime rating of 76%. What does that tell us? Lamar is becoming more and more liberal in his votes.

Sarah Palin Uses the "I" Word for Obama & Fires Back at Attorney General Eric Holder at Western Conservative Summit … "I Don't Need Lectures From Eric Holder"
At the Western Conservative Summit in Denver, Colorado former Alaska Governor Sarah Palin slammed President Barack Obama, Attorney General Eric Holder and the gutless GOP establishment Congress who do nothing about a lawless president. Palin stated, you hear politicians these days denouncing Barack Obama saying he is a lawless, imperial president who ignores court orders and changes laws by executive fiat. And refuses to enforce laws that he just doesn't like." Palin went on to say, "That is true, but the question is … hey politicians what ya going to do about it?" Then she went there with the "I " word. Palin said, "we need a little less talk and a lot more action … There is only one remedy for a president who commits high crimes and misdemeanors and it's impeachment."
Then Palin fired back at Eric Holder, "I don't need lectures from Eric Holder, a guy, get this, so incompetent that he denied voter fraud existed even after someone claimed that they were Eric Holder and they got his ballot and they voted in D.C."
"Oh dear, Eric. Not many cabinet members in U.S. history have been held in contempt of Congress, but he still wants to weigh in," Palin said.
Palin pushed back on Holder's claim that race might still be a major factor in America, calling it a "disgusting, false charge."
"Try to get it," Palin said. "Illegal immigration hurts all Americans – all races and backgrounds."
Western Conservative Summit: 7-19-14
Former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin hit back at Attorney General Eric Holder on Saturday for criticizing her call to impeach President Obama over the border crisis.
"I don't need lectures from Eric Holder, a guy – get this – so incompetent that he denied voter fraud existed even after someone claimed that they were Eric Holder and they got his ballot and they voted in D.C.," Palin said at the Western Conservative Summit in Denver.
Palin was referring to an April 2012 video by a conservative activist that showed a man entering a Washington, D.C., polling center and requesting Holder's ballot, offering up the official's mailing address. The video did not actually show a ballot being cast in Holder's name.
Earlier this month the former Republican vice presidential candidate called for the president's impeachment for his handling of illegal immigration. "This unsecured border crisis is the last straw that makes the battered wife say 'no mas,'" Palin wrote on the Breitbart website.
Holder said in an interview aired Sunday on ABC's "This Week" that Palin "wasn't a particularly good vice presidential candidate" and "an even worse judge of who ought to be impeached and why."
"Oh dear, Eric. Not many cabinet members in U.S. history have been held in contempt of Congress, but he still wants to weigh in," Palin said.
Palin pushed back on Holder's claim that race might still be a major factor in America, calling it a "disgusting, false charge."
"Try to get it," Palin said. "Illegal immigration hurts all Americans – all races and backgrounds."
WOW, Just WOW … Dave Brat Defeats Incumbent Republican House Majority Leader Eric Cantor in Virginia GOP Primary, 55.5% – 44.5%
Down goes
Frazier Cantor, down goes Frazier Cantor, down goes Frazier Cantor!!!
Establishment Republicans were rocked this evening when US Rep. Eric Cantor, the Republican House Majority Leader lost to virtual unknown Dave Brat. To borrow a line from Al Michaels from the 1980 Winter Olympics in Lake Placid, NY was the USA defeated the Soviet Union, "Do you believe in Miracles … YES!!! It was thought by many in the establishment that Cantor was the next in line for the Speakership; however, "We the People" had other ideas. So much for the notion that money wins these elections, Brat trailed Cantor in fundraising, pulling in $200,000 this cycle compared to Cantor's $2 million.
In an upset for the ages, Majority Leader Eric Cantor of Virginia, the second-most powerful man in the House, was dethroned Tuesday by a little-known, tea party-backed Republican primary challenger carried to victory on a wave of public anger over calls for looser immigration laws.
""This is a miracle from God that just happened," exulted David Brat, a political science professor, as his victory became clear in the congressional district around Virginia capital city.
Speaking to downcast supporters, Cantor conceded, "Obviously we came up short" in a bid for renomination to an eighth term.
The victory was by far the biggest of the 2014 campaign season for tea party forces, although last week they forced veteran Mississippi Sen. Thad Cochran into a June 24 runoff, and hope State Sen. Chris McDaniel can prevail then.
So much for Eric Cantor's internal polling that showed him ahead of David Brat by 34 points. Oops, missed it by that much.
The poll, shared with Post Politics, shows Cantor with a 62 percent to 28 percent lead over Brat, an economics professor running to Cantor's right. Eleven percent say they are undecided.
The internal survey of 400 likely Republican primary voters was conducted May 27 and 28 by John McLaughlin of McLaughlin & Associates. It carries a margin of error of +/-4.9 percentage points.
Cantor conceded the race around 8:25 p.m. — shortly after the Associated Press pronounced Cantor's 13-year political career at least temporarily over. With nearly 98 percent of precincts reporting, Brat had 55 percent of the vote, while Cantor had 44 percent. People close to Cantor said internal polls showed him hovering near 60 percent in the runup to the race.
It's one of the most stunning losses in modern House politics, and completely upends the GOP hierarchy in both Virginia and Washington. Cantor enjoyed a meteoric rise that took him from chief deputy whip, to minority whip to majority leader in the span of 13 years.
Cantor was seen by many as the next speaker of the House, biding his time until Ohio Rep. John Boehner wanted to retire.
UPDATE I: Victory Speech … Dollars do not Vote, You Do!
Texas Senator Ted Cruz Wins 2016 Presidential Straw Poll at a Republican Leadership Conference in New Orleans, Louisiana
If Ted Cruz is Constitutionally allowed to run for President … He will be a real threat to Democrats and establishment Republicans …
Texas Senator Ted Cruz won the 2016 Presidential straw poll at a Republican Leadership Conference in New Orleans, Louisiana. Cruz finished first with 30.33%, Dr. Ben Carson second with 29.38% and Kentucky Senator Rand Paul finished third with 10.43%. They were followed by former Arkansas Governor Mike Huckabee and Texas Governor Rick Perry rounded out the top five, at 5.06% and 4.90%, respectively. Moderate RINO's Florida's former Governor Jeb Bush came in 7th with 4.42% and New Jersey Governor Chris Christie came in dead last with 1.11%. During his speech Cruz said that Republicans would take back the Senate, they will retire Sen. Mary Landrieu (D-LA) and remove Harry Reid as Majority Leader.
Cruz finished in first place in the annual conference's presidential straw poll at 30.33%. Dr. Ben Carson, a Fox News commentator and conservative activist, finished in second with 29.38% while Sen. Rand Paul, R-Kentucky, was third with 10.43%.
Fox News host and former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee and Texas Governor Rick Perry rounded out the top five, at 5.06% and 4.90%, respectively.
Neither Carson nor Paul spoke at the conference, but their support was a show of confidence by the traditionally more conservative crowd. The annual meeting of activists features of who's who of big-name Republican politicians. It is an important appearance for potential presidential candidates to make.
More moderate Republicans also skipped the conference, but many fared much worse in the straw poll. New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie came in dead last with 1.11% while Florida's former Gov. Jeb Bush and current Sen. Marco Rubio and came in seventh and eighth at 4.42% and 3.32 %, respectively.
Nobody Cares what any politicians in Washington says. Power in politics, sovereignty in America is with We the People!
Ted Cruz, an ardent defender of The Bill of Rights and the Second Amendment said during his speech, "In Texas, we define gun control real simple. That's hittin' what you aim at." Cruz Also went on to say, "that following the tragic shooting in Newtown, CT the president didn't do what she should have done. What he should have done is he should have stood up and said we are going to go after violent criminals and we are going to come down on violent criminals like a ton of bricks. instead he used it as an excuse to come after the rights of law abiding citizens."
Cruz consistently pointed out that Democrats and establishment gray-beard Republicans both says that things can't get done. Yet time after time in examples of drone strikes against Americans, Second Amendment gun control, foreign affairs and provisions in the International monetary fund. All won by conservatives.
Too often the establishment GOP says it can't be done because they are afraid to take a position. In order for there to be change, not only must Democrats go, so must the establishment Republicans who have long forgot what they were sent to Washington, DC to do.
Cruz went on to blast the establishment same old-same old way of doing things within the GOP of trying to win elections. There is a cluster of political consultants who keep running losing campaigns, making the same mistakes and keep coming back to donors to make the same failed mistakes that did not win the previous times. He stressed that the way you win elections is you stand for principle and you empower the people.
Dazed & Confused … Even Hillary Clinton is Challenged to Come Up with Her Accomplsihments
Imagine being on a job interview and asked about your accomplishments to be considered for the job and you got nothing …
Thus was the case for Hillary Clinton when Thomas Friedman asked her what do you see as your biggest accomplishment on the job as stated by Salon political writer Steve Kornacki to the MSNBC Hardball audience. Hoe is it possible that even Hillary Clinton herself was "flummoxed" when asked about her accomplishments?
"So Joan, you know, this isn't just a case of State Department spokesperson being caught off guard one day. This is something that sounds like Hillary herself has not fully come up with a way to articulate. Republicans clearly think this is something they can hit her with in 2016."
Hmm, how's it going in Syria, Libya, North Korea, Iran or Russia? Maybe Hillary should have said the Russian reset button, the powder keg that now is the Middle East or Benghazi … but I guess what difference does it make.
Hillary Clinton "Flummoxed" When Questioned About Accomplishments
State Department spokeswoman can't name Hillary Clinton's diplomatic achievements … and neither can Hillary Clinton!
State Department Press Secretary Jen Psaki was flummoxed, too, when asked about a 2010 State Department Quadrennial Diplomacy and Development Review (QDDR) that summarized then-Secretary Clinton's goals and accomplishments.
'Can you, off the top of your head, identify one tangible achievement that … resulted from the last QDDR?' asked an Associated Press reporter during the daily briefing.
'I am certain that those who were here at the time, who worked hard on that effort, could point out one,' Psaki replied through a forced smile.
'I'm sure there are a range of things that were put into place that I'm not even aware of,' she offered moments later.
'I won't hold my breath,' the reporter shot back

Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof;
or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble,
and to petition the government for a redress of grievances.
An alarming 55% if likely voters in a recent Rasmussen poll stated, "they believe the government should be allowed to review political ads and candidates' campaign comments for their accuracy." It gets better, they also wanted to punish those that it decides are making false statements about other candidates. OK FOLKS … HAVE YOU COMPLETELY LOST YOUR MINDS!!! You do realize that "Freedom of Speech" is intended to prevent a tyrannical government from trampling the speech, opinions and comments of ab individuals right? I could care less what party was in power, I would never want a government to control campaign speech. It is up to the voter to inform yourself as to whether some one is fabricating the truth. If that is too difficult, don't vote.
So 55% of clueless voters would want whatever political party was in power to review and determine whether a political ad was truthful or not? Who could see anything going wrong with that because of course political parties are not partisan of course. The American Spectator has an idea, just create more government bureaucracy and a new agency, call it the Ministry of Political Truth, to oversee this brave new government power. Oh wait, you don't want the government agency to do it, how about the media?
The U.S. Supreme Court heard arguments this week in a case aimed at overturning an Ohio law that makes it a crime to make false statements in a political campaign. But most voters favor government policing of the truthfulness of campaign ads and statements.
Fifty-five percent (55%) of Likely U.S. Voters believe the government should be allowed to review political ads and candidates' campaign comments for their accuracy and punish those that it decides are making false statements about other candidates. A new Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey finds that 31% oppose such government oversight. Fourteen percent (14%) are undecided. (To see survey question wording, click here.)
Presently we have a president in Barack Obama who thumbs his nose at the US Constitution, you would actually give him the power to control political speech for campaign speech, REALLY? WAKE UP AMERICA, many brave souls fought and died to bring freedoms and independence to the colonies and form a United States. Act like it!

Sony Ericsson teases with countdown and an XPERIA device
Sony Ericsson is trying their hand at the whole countdown teasing, but they haven't got it right quite yet. The mysterious device hiding in the dark is quickly revealed to be an XEPRIA, maybe an XPERIA X10.
Update: It looks like that 13 hour timer timed-out early. And yes, the "mysterious" device was in fact the Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10. It will be available for pre-order shortly (the page isn't available yet) - with an AT&T contract, the XPERIA X10 will cost 129.99 US dollars. The XPERIA X10 will launch on August 15. Here it is on the AT&T site, though they didn't breathe a word about an OS upgrade so it's 1.6 Donut.
If you copy the teaser photo into a photo editing program and fiddle with the brightness setting you'll get the result bellow. And putting it next to photos of the Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10, there are too many similarities to be ignored - the silver strip design, the camera/LED/logo arrangement.
But is it a new XPERIA albeit with the same design? We wouldn't bet on it - the "Smarter is coming" tagline sounds like a hint at an Eclair update for the current XPERIA X10 to us. Sony Ericsson has been promising an update to Android 2.1 Eclair but it was scheduled for Q4.
The update is pretty big - it gets you not just Eclair but 720p video recording too, along with DLNA and updates to Timescape and Mediascape. Could Sony Ericsson really be ahead of schedule?
We'll know for sure in about 13 hours so stay tuned.

It is the X8 - budget version of the X10. Played around with it a few weeks back. Looks quite good.

New York City is known for its awe-inspiring sites, historical achievements, and diverse population.
One major milestone in New York City history is the founding of the stock exchange. The world's biggest stock exchange NYSE began in 1792. History reveals that people began trading on 68 Wall Street beneath the shelter of a buttonwood tree. The first listed company was the Bank of New York, created when stockbrokers signed the Buttonwood agreement that decided the trading rules.
Since then, NYSE has a US$16.613 trillion market capitalization. This stock exchange is quite a milestone in New York financial history.
