Battle for obscure Nevada office all about 2016
LAS VEGAS (AP) — Like most lieutenant governors, the No. 2 executive in Nevada doesn't have much to do most days. So why are Harry Reid and Brian Sandoval so involved in the battle over the office this fall?
For both, the outcome in an obscure race could shape their political futures.
Sandoval, the state's popular Hispanic governor, is the challenger national Republicans dream of should Reid seek a sixth-term in the U.S. Senate in 2016. Should Sandoval run, Nevada's lieutenant governor would move into the governor's mansion in Carson City.
For a politician like Sandoval, who has a reputation for being cautious and conflict-averse, challenging Reid, a former boxer, legendary political brawler and the Senate's majority leader, might be worth the fight only if he knows a member of his own party would take his place should he run and win.
Enter Mark Hutchison, a genial Republican state senator Sandoval recruited to run for lieutenant governor in this year's election. He'll face Assemblywoman Lucy Flores, 34, a former gang member who boasts Reid's backing and an unorthodox, up-from-the-streets life story Democrats hope can mobilize Nevada's hefty number of Hispanic voters.
"A lot of Nevadans are viewing it as a trial run for governor," GOP consultant Robert Uithoven said.
Hutchison was wrapping up his first session as a state lawmaker last year when Sandoval approached him about the race, promising to lend the Las Vegas attorney his respected political and fundraising operation.
"I've got a great advantage in having Brian Sandoval want to be partners with me," said Hutchison, who represents a majority-Democratic district in the city's suburbs.
Hutchison was also one of several Republican lawmakers in Nevada who voted to urge Congress to pass legislation allowing many of the 11 million immigrants living in the U.S. illegally to eventually become citizens. Republicans hope that with the upbeat, well-liked Sandoval at his side, Hutchison could draw down the outsized Hispanic support for Democrats that allowed Reid to win a tight re-election race in 2010 and Obama to twice carry the state.
"One of the problems that we have with Republicans is that they don't approach us. He has done that," Otto Merida, president of the Las Vegas Latin Chamber of Commerce, said of Hutchison.
He faces a candidate with a compelling backstory in Flores, who said she began to mull a run for lieutenant governor last year — with Reid's support.
"Harry talks about her so constantly," Vice President Joe Biden said at a recent campaign rally. "I thought she was his daughter."
One of 13 children raised primarily in northeastern Las Vegas, Flores last year revealed during a statehouse debate about a sex education bill that she had an abortion at age 16. She regularly speaks about serving nine months in a juvenile detention center after leading police on chase in a stolen car through east Las Vegas, and how she got a second chance from her parole officer after getting into a fight with her often-absent mother.

Cristiano Ronaldo pulled a fast one on us and announced that he has become a dad.
Ronaldo posted a message on his Facebook and Twitter accounts stating that some woman has given birth to his baby.
Cristiano Ronaldo: From Kim Kardashian to Russian Model
The message reads:
"It is with great joy and emotion that I inform I have recently become father to a baby boy," he wrote. "As agreed with the baby's mother, who prefers to have her identity kept confidential, my son will be under my exclusive guardianship. No further information will be provided on this subject and I request everyone to fully respect my right to privacy (and that of the child) at least on issues as personal as these are."
Ronaldo was spotted with Kim Kardashian a few months back and most recently with Russian model Irina Shayk. Both ladies have not been sporting a baby bump so we're assuming they're not the baby mama's.
We wonder who the mother of the baby is!!!

Stewart goal sinks Well
Michael Stewart scored the only goal of the game as Hearts gave Craig Brown a losing return to management.
Last Updated: 30/12/09 10:36pm
Michael Stewart scored the only goal of the game as Hearts gave Craig Brown a losing return to management with Motherwell.
Stewart struck on 41 minutes at Tynecastle as Well began life without Jim Gannon with another defeat following his sacking on Monday.
Brown, who began his coaching career at Fir Park in 1974, took a place on the bench alongside assistant Archie Knox and they should have been celebrating inside two minutes.
John Ruddy's long kick caused confusion in the home defence and Marius Zaliukas headed the ball straight to Jim O'Brien with Marian Kello way off his line, but the winger's cushioned volley lacked power and allowed the goalkeeper to get back just in time to claw the ball off the line.
Murphy and O'Brien, playing in advanced wide positions in Motherwell's five-man midfield, both had decent efforts at goal as the visitors continued their bright start.
Well threatened with a direct counter-attack with Lukas Jutkiewicz inches from connecting with O'Brien's left-wing cross.
Headed clear
Hammell comfortably headed out a Jose Goncalves header as he guarded the near post at a corner before Hearts lost Jamie Mole to injury in the 20th minute, with Nade coming on.
Hearts pushed Motherwell back for a 10-minute spell but a wayward shot from Nade was all they had to show for their pressure.
Motherwell looked comfortable but they conceded a soft goal in the 39th minute.
Nade turned Stephen Craigan on the byline and recovered quickly after the Well captain and Tom Hateley combined to stop him crossing.
Ruddy came well out of his goal to close Nade down but the goalkeeper was stranded when the Frenchman cut the ball back and Stewart passed it into the net from eight yards.
Forbes volleyed well over from the edge of the box after Jutkiewicz had intercepted a poor pass back from Zaliukas moments after the restart but
Motherwell almost fell further behind in controversial circumstances in the 54th minute.
Crawford Allan gave Motherwell a free-kick on the halfway line after Steve Jennings and Stewart went in for a challenge but reversed his decision and allowed Goncalves to take it quickly with the visitors up field.
Nade was clear down the left and crossed for Suso Santana but the Spaniard skewed his volley high and wide before the Motherwell players surrounded the referee and Brown raced to the touchline to protest.
Motherwell pushed forward and Kello kept out a Steven Saunders header before diving low to brilliantly push away Jutkiewicz's strike following a knockdown by Sutton, on moments earlier for Murphy.
The Hearts keeper then held a Sutton volley and smothered at the feet of the Englishman after Jutkiewicz and O'Brien had worked their way into the box.
Motherwell brought on Lasley and Steven McGarry, making his first SPL appearance of the season, and they continued to press.
But Hearts held firm with their defence putting their bodies in the way time after time, especially during a late goalmouth scramble when Kello came off his line to block from Lasley.
Craigan then headed wide from a Forbes corner and Kello beat away a Forbes free-kick deep into injury time.

2005 Nissan Pathfinder Q&A
2005 Nissan Pathfinder Question: automatic transmission
Ever heard of a 2005 Nissan Pathfinder automatic transmission failing. Have been advised by Nissan mechanic that there are pieces of metal and copper in it. We have owned this car since new and have regular scheduled services - BMS
5 Answers
Answer 1
I personally haven't, older generation (early pathfinder had automatic transmission problems), perhaps call several transmission specialty shops or check the Nissan/Nissan Pathfinder forums to see if other people are reporting premature failures, - patrick mannion
Answer 2
Just a word of caution. If your mechanic has said that there's pieces of metal in your tranmission and that means it cannot be repaired. If he has suggested that you need a totally new or rebuilt transmission. Be wary and go to another mechanic for a second opinion. Over my 58 years on this planet, I've been told the same thing by every mechanic, when I had a tranmission problem. I was later advised that there's no way a tranmission can have pieces of metal floating around in it, and that's a lie told by those who want to stick you with the cost of a completely new transmission. - beemur2002
Answer 3
I have an 06 pathfinder and the transmission started shaking at 45mph and under acceleration. Started doing some research and there are a lot of 05's and some 06's that have a well know issue: engine coolant gets mixed with the transmission fluid inside the radiator. This causes your transmission to fail. My dealer has replaced the radiator and is now changing the seals in the transmission. They did not find any metal pieces in it. I am lucky that I am still under warranty, but some other cases I've read were not so fortunate and are now stuck with $ 7,000 for a transmission and $ 2,000 for the radiator. Check your coolant and transmission fluid. If they look milky, then you have the same problem. - Visitor
Answer 4
Nissan changed their radiator vendor in 2005. This is a known issue. Faulty part, flawed design. There are thousands of posts out there of people with the same issue. Radiator fails and coolant leaks into transmission. There's a pending class action lawsuit. DO NOT get your transmission replaced. Replace your radiator and have your transmission flushed. That might do the trick before you invest at least $5K in a 5 year old vehicle. - Visitor
Answer 5

Gear Question

does it work SAFELY at the low end for tires?
Angus Bohanon
Yes it will, but it's a very low-volume pump so it'll take weeks to inflate a tire.
KC Gaudet
Uuhhh...I dunno if that's the direction I'd go. You could walk to an air compressor from the moon faster than pumping a tire up with this. It will thread on to Schrader valves, but you'd need an adapter for presta valves. Remember, after you fix a flat, take the extra time to put the correct pressure in the tire or you'll probably be fixing another flat. Slow down to speed up.....
This is not for pumping tires at all. It is for bicycle shocks. Front forks and rear air shocks.

Matt Ridley's biography traces Crick's life from middle-class mediocrity in the English Midlands, through a lackluster education and six years designing magnetic mines for the Royal Navy, to his leap into biology at the age of thirty-one. While at Cambridge, he suddenly began to display the unique visual imagination and intense tenacity of thought that would allow him to see the solutions to several great scientific conundrums--and to see them long before most biologists had even conceived of the problems. Having set out to determine what makes living creatures alive and having succeeded, he immigrated at age sixty to California and turned his attention to the second question that had fascinated him since his youth: What makes conscious creatures conscious? Time ran out before he could find the answer.

PHILADELPHIA — Comcast Corp. showed the biggest gain in customer satisfaction among cable and satellite TV operators, a survey showed Tuesday.
Philadelphia-based Comcast's overall score rose 9.3 percent from the prior year, according to the University of Michigan's American Customer Satisfaction Index. The improvement comes as the cable operator reached out to disgruntled customers who posted complaints through blogs or on social networking sites.
It's a marked turnaround for Comcast, where complaints against service ran so deep at one point that a Web site called ComcastMustDie.com arose and a frustrated customer smashed a keyboard with a hammer at a Comcast office in Manassas, Va.
DirecTV Group Inc. came in on top, up 4.4 percent, keeping a perch it has enjoyed for several years. It pulled away from fellow satellite TV operator Dish Network Corp. whose customer satisfaction score fell 1.5 percent to a historic low as the company retools its service.
Satellite TV operators partner with phone companies to offer phone and Internet services, and the choice of partner affects customer satisfaction. The Michigan researchers pointed out that DirecTV has a deal with Verizon Communications Inc., which ranks high on customer service, while Dish partnered with Sprint Nextel Corp., which ranks low.
Atlanta-based Cox Communications Inc. was the top cable TV performer for the sixth straight year, up 4.8 percent to an all-time high score.
Time Warner Cable Inc. had the same score from a year ago while Charter Communications Inc., which is in Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection, fell the most. Its satisfaction score fell 5.6 percent to a record low for any company in the survey's 15-year history.

Pirates Makes Three at Savoy for D'Oyly Carte
Editorial Staff • West End • 30 Jan 2001
When D'Oyly Carte first brought the production to the West End - via the Queen's Theatre - in 1998, it was the company's first appearance in the West End for a decade. Since then D'Oyly Carte has had successes with G&S's The Mikado and HMS Pinafore, both of which have been nominated for Outstanding Musical Production in the 2001 Laurence Olivier Awards.
This time, The Pirates of Penzance will be installed at the Savoy Theatre, D'Oyly Carte's "home" venue. In 1876 Richard D'Oyly Carte formed the Comedy Opera Company and the following year produced The Sorcerer, his first collaboration with Gilbert and Sullivan. The ensuing success of their partnership enabled D'Oyly Carte to build the Savoy in 1882. It was the first public building to be lit throughout by electricity. The theatre was virtually destroyed by fire in 1990 but, after extensive refurbishments, it reopened in 1993. D'Oyly Carte continues to be dedicated to producing faithful recreations of the Savoy Operas of Gilbert & Sullivan.
In The Pirates of Penzance, Frederic, a slave to duty, thinks he has finally completed his apprenticeship to a band of pirates when he turns 21. However, his attempts to follow a more honourable profession are scuppered when he realises he was born on February 29 of a leap year - and thus his apprenticeship has many, many more years to run. The score includes 'Poor Wandering One', 'I Am the Very Model of a Modern Major General', 'The Sergeant of Police' and 'Policeman's Chorus'.
This is the second major production of The Pirates of Penzance which has hit the capital in less than a year. Last summer, the Open Air Theatre in Regent's Park mounted a highly successful revival which has also garnered several Olivier nominations: Best Actor in a Musical (for Jimmy Johnston as the Pirate King), Best Director (for Ian Talbot) and yet another for Outstanding Musical Production.
D'Oyly Carte's production is directed by Stuart Maunder, with musical direction by John Owen Edwards and choreography by Lindsay Dolan. It is presented in the West End by Raymond Gubbay.
Currently at the Savoy, The Importance of Being Earnest, starring Patricia Routledge, is booking until 21 March 2001.

Last edited by aimster; 07-05-2011 at 05:03 PM.
I like to think of Duffy and Shellie as sweethearts but in an "innocent" way much like Mickey and Minnie. I guess it's the romantic in me wanting everyone to be happily coupled. :P
I think they are advertised as sweethearts but I also see it as Shellie May having a crush on Duffy and Duffy just...being oblivious XD
I think they're besties. I had a boy as a best best best friend all throughout my pre-k and elementary years and there was no thought of gooey mushy stuff like that. I think that Duffy and Shellie May are both young souls and are too innocent to be thinking of such matters. Shellie May is just very cute and girly to me and I like to think of her as a little sweetie to everyone, with no exception to Duffy. It's easy to see a male and female together and assume they're together - it happens all the time at my school (Especially to me because I have a lot of friends who happen to be boys) and Duffy and Shellie are no exception.
But this is just my opinion.
Like DuffyD always says, "Every Duffy is Duffy", and the same goes for ShellieMay. They have the name, but they are all different.

Bringing the Love since January 10, 2011
I that there are so many perspectives on this, as long as none of them is forced as canon by the Company. That's my only reason for always bringing up the sibling or friend option when people say they are sweethearts. One of the immediate draws for me with Duffy was that he wasn't a "paired off" character. I don't personally see them as "young," though. More like ageless. And with the kind of wise innocence or innocent wisdom of the enlightened. Teddy bears are kind of similar in function to bodhisattvas, I think.

Bringing the Love since January 10, 2011
Well according to the story in the Duffy FAQ, Shellie May was created when Duffy liked Minnie being Mickey's "friend" and wanted a "friend" of his own, so Minnie made Shellie Mae. So the word "friend" is used for both Mickey and Minnie's relationship and Duffy and Shellie May's, so both pairs would have parallel relationships, and Mickey and Minnie are more like sweethearts, friends with a bit of a mutual crush and love for each other, so I think Duffy and Shellie May are, too.
I have always thought of them to be sweethearts, but all the different perspectives make me reconsider...
Ohh! "Duffy" I read that as "Dusty" which gives this thread a whole different spin.

And another Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star seemingly bites the dust.
On the heels of Adrienne Maloof and Camille Grammer's shocking exits from the hit Bravo show, Marisa Zanuck, a part-time season-three castmember, has hinted she will also not be returning to the reality TV show despite earlier reports she was in talks to become a full-time Housewife for season four.
"In truth, I have moved past all of the drama, and I don't want to acknowledge it anymore," she posted on her Bravo blog after the season finale Monday night. "This is my final blog and I want to dedicate it to all of you that have supported me immensely throughout this experience."
All the best of the Bev Hills reunion
She continued, addressing her relationship with her husband Dean Zanuck (yes, that's the grandson of legendary Hollywood producer Darryl Zanuck), whom she often insulted and criticized on the show, even causing costar Brandi Glanville to suggest the pair give each other a "hall pass" to save their marriage:
"I have learned so much from this experience and it has changed my life in ways I couldn't have dreamed. My husband Dean and I have grown closer as we discussed the things I've said on the show," she insisted. "I regret many things that I have said without thinking, but my husband and I are deeply in love and after 16 years we know how we truly feel about each other. Dean is an incredible man and he knew that I didn't intend on hurting him."
Finally, she addressed the challenges of being a Bravo star and admits the job isn't as easy as it seems:
Find out what Brandi Glanville really thinks of her costars
"I don't think anyone or anything can prepare someone for becoming a part of the Housewives," she wrote. "A Housewife must be many things: she must be media-savvy and tech-savvy. She must think about what she says and its potential impact, she must have a thick skin to handle the constructive criticism and a sense of humor about her to enjoy the creativity of the many writers that blog the show. A Housewife must also recognize that she is not perfect and be willing to learn from her mistakes. If 10,000 people are telling you that you are being a bitch, they can't all be wrong."
Well said. But now that Marisa knows the tricks of the trade, do you think she'd really give Beverly Hills the boot?
Andy Cohen talks Adrienne Maloof's skipping the Reunion
"To answer many of those who are asking!! I'm not sure if I will be asked back to the show for season 4. We all have to wait and see!!!," she posted on her Twitter page in response to the exit reports. "I don't know what I want or if they will even want me back but thank you to everyone who's been so great!!"
Guess the answers not as clear as Lisa Vanderpump's crystals.
Do you want Marisa to return for season four? Tell us in the comments!

I got this post from one of my other threads. Read it and tell me what you guys think.
"And as I said somewhere else Goku Never beat anyone 1 v 1. It has never ever happened. He lost to His brother. He lost to Vegeta. He lost to Freeza. He lost to Cell. He lost to Kid Buu. Though he came out of those fights "the winner" he always has help from other people. Freeza was the only "Casual " Planet buster. Kid Buu was the only Casual System buster (though he did it planet by planet."
And at the end of the day, he lost to them both. If it where for the fact that Freeza was on that B.S. and didn't just kill Goku when the Spirit bomb didn't work, instead of targeting his friends, we'd never have SSj1.
If it weren't for them constantly using the dragon balls, Kid Buu would have killed everyone.
So while I completely agree with everything you've said, what I have never understood about his debate is Goku is not as good as everyone make him out to be. He's extremely over rated because he never ever wins. Minus lame fights like Goku vs nappa. Goku Vs Berta. Goku vs Riccum. When the real fights take places, he gets trashed every single time."

The apartment was cozy and our stay was comfortable. It was very close to SFO and travelling to downtown SF was only a short trip away. Met with lovely Maggie on the first & last days of our stay, she made our arrival easy and we were able to start our vacay right away!!!
I had a wonderful time. The place is quite comfortable, and just as adorable as shown in the listing. I never had the chance to meet Stan, but Maggie is delightful, and so very helpful. I'd love to stay again when I'm back in the Burlingame area.
Thanks a lot for Maggie and Stan!:)
Nice and very-very cosy house, perfect for pairs and single travellers. Homemade jam and fresh pastry were right what was needed in the morning after the 20 hours flight) My hosts were so friendly to meet me and tell about the nearest shops and transport, really helpful)
Only good memories about my staying! Thank you!:)
This was a terrific place to stay. It's extremely comfortable, with lots of little extra touches - fruit, bedside chocolates, lovely toiletries. The wifi was fast. There are interesting shops and cafes just a short stroll away. And best of all Maggie was just terrific about picking me up from the station and dropping me off at the airport. She's a great host, friendly and very helpful. Altogether a great stay.
Very warm welcome, a home from home. Nice touches - jam, bread, butter, plus the house was cosy and characterful.
This was our second stay with Stan and Maggie and it was as lovely as the first. Stan and Maggie were welcoming and accommodating. We had a crazy schedule and they worked around our needs to make our stay easy and comfortable. The location is great, the accommodations clean and comfortable. Maggie's homemade marmalade was a special treat on this trip and one we will return for! It was delicious on the fresh baked croissants accompanied by the organic coffee we brewed each morning. Next time we are in the area we'll definitely look to stay with Stan and Maggie.
This little apartment completely lived up to our expectations. It was clean and quite comfortable. Maggie went above and beyond to provide us with our breakfast requests and great coffee, and was always available when we had questions. She even got up at 5:30am to say goodbye and make sure we didn't oversleep our early flight home. She has a good sense of humor, a lovely Irish accent, and was a wonderful hostess. The only problem she couldn't fix was the sound of the trains going by at night. They are quite loud and did wake us up. People who live there say they don't notice after a while.

It's been a while since Congressional Democrats have rallied around President Barack Obama's push for a Federal minimum wage increase, so it's about time for some fresh publicity. The midterms are less than four months away.
So this week, a gaggle of Democratic Representatives is putting itself through the minimum wage austerity experience, attempting to get by on $77 for a week — a budget that's supposed to reflect the discretionary spending power that comes from earning a minimum wage of $7.25 per hour.
Here's how progressive blog ThinkProgress weeps over the tribulations of former Ohio Governor Ted Strickland, who joined with Congressmen Tim Ryan (D-Ohio), Keith Ellinson (D-Minn.), Congresswoman Jan Schakowsky (D-Ill.) and others in attempting to subsist on fast-food earnings:
Since he began his minimum wage challenge on Sunday, former Ohio Governor Ted Strickland, now president of the Center for American Progress Action Fund, has had eggs and toast, a bowl of cereal with a peanut butter and jelly sandwich, and a banana. On Monday, he came to work with a bologna and cheese sandwich and a banana. "I'm not sure what I'm going to have for supper," he told ThinkProgress.
He's also had to give up some pleasures. "I was walking by a nice restaurant last night near my apartment and people were sitting outside and eating nice food and drinking," he said. "I was thinking, 'You know what would be nice? To have a cold beer.' But you know, I didn't. Ordinarily I would, but if you don't have much money there's a lot of things you can't do."
Sounds like he's in a cold, dark place.
This "Live The Wage Challenge" theater is the product of a push, on the five-year anniversary of the last Federal minimum wage increase, to persuade Congress to raise the Federal minimum wage to $10.10 per hour. The challenge, which has a website that invites you to participate, is sponsored by dozens of labor unions and progressive organizations, according to a report from The Washington Free Beacon.
Instead of living for one week on minimum wage, perhaps well-intentioned Democrats could challenge themselves to live for one year on a middle-class wage (while they're at it, they might even consider enriching the endeavor by doing middle-class work). It would be an experience far more representative of Americans who, while working to pursue their careers and long-term goals, must make tough financial decisions that have lifelong consequences.
