Green stovepipe hat with buckle? Check. "Kiss me, I'm Irish" t-shirt? Check. These are the items most people pack for their St. Patrick's Day celebrations. But if you really want to be prepared for anything this March 17, we recommend bringing along an emergency LED flashlight for the reasons listed below.
Pinch accurately. Everyone knows failing to wear green on St. Patrick's Day will earn you a pinch. But in the darkened atmosphere of your local pub, it can be quite difficult to tell who is actually decked out in appropriately verdant shades. Carry an LED emergency flashlight to make sure every party pooper you pinch deserves it. LED flashlights produce a pure, sun-like light that will allow you to accurately carry out the duties of the "green police."
Walking dance party. For many of us, St. Patrick's Day is a chance to let loose and have a good time. If you're planning on shaking your tail feathers this March 17, an emergency LED flashlight is one of the best accessories you could wish for. Just bring the torch onto the dance floor and you'll have an automatic spotlight for flattering your dancing buddies. Or flip over to a strobe setting (as you will find on many of our high performance LED flashlights) and let the trippy robot dance moves begin.
Light the way to sobriety. Need to walk off a green beer or two before heading home? With an LED emergency flashlight in your hand you'll be far more visible to cars.

Giga Wing (ギガウイング Giga Uingu?) is a 1999 vertically scrolling shooter arcade game developed by Takumi and published by Capcom on their CPS-2 arcade system board and ported later that year to the Dreamcast console. The arcade version is notable for using a horizontally aligned monitor (much like Treasure's Radiant Silvergun), something that is considered rare for a vertical shooter.
Giga Wing takes place during a fictional war within a steampunk setting. The player controls one of four different futuristic aircraft and must destroy enemy aircraft, tanks, ships, and buildings using both guns and missiles mounted on the aircraft and a limited supply of bombs which damage or destroy all enemies on-screen when used. The game is based on the player(s) trying to destroy a medallion which possesses great power. Many of the bosses use the medallion as a weapon. At the end, it shows that an evil man who pilots a ship called the "Stranger" is the real person who is in control of the Medallion, and was responsible for the war, as well as other conflicts in the past including World War II, and you fight him three times as a mini-boss and as the last boss. He appears to be a friend of Stuck 30 years ago when you fight him with Stuck.
There are four different characters in the game: Sinnosuke, Ruby, Isha, and Stuck; and each of them has their own individual storyline. Players can also do team play mode that has two characters at once, creating a new storyline. In each storyline, there are two endings. In the bad ending, the character the player uses will sacrifice their life in a kamikaze attack that destroys the Medallion. In team up mode, generally one of the character does this, but sometimes both characters survive. In the good endings for either solo or team play, the characters do not sacrifice themselves.
The player chooses one of four different craft and shoots through seven stages. Each game (on default settings) begins with three lives, and an extend can be earned in stage four if specific requirements are met. The option to continue is given when all lives are lost, although the seventh stage is only accessible if the player does not use any continues.
Each ship in Giga Wing has three attacks.
- Normal shot (Tap the A button): A spray of bullets that can be strengthened by collecting power-ups.
- Reflect Force (Hold the A button): An attack that reflects all enemy bullets and sends them back in the enemy's general direction, causing damage. Can also be used to plow through enemies.
- Force Bomb (Press the B button): A large attack that nullifies all bullets on screen and causes great damage to all enemies. Each fighter has a different explosion formation.
Power-ups and bombs[edit]
Power-ups are released when certain ships containing them are destroyed. A maximum of three can be collected; they increase the power of the player's guns. The power-ups are shown as purple P's that bounce around the screen. Once the player is destroyed, the P's that have been collected come out of the destroyed ship and must be recollected to get the players power level back to its former state.
Each ship starts out with two bombs and up to seven can be collected. Each bomb left in reserve after any boss fight gives the player a bonus.
Score multiplier system[edit]
The points received for destroying enemies are the product of their nominal value and the player's current score multiplier, which is increased by catching the medals that some enemies and destructible scenery release when destroyed.
Catching the medals increases the current score multiplier by the current medal value, which in turn increases by 1, 5, 10, 20, or 100 multiplier points for every medal caught depending its type. For example, catching three "5 point" medals at the beginning of the game leaves the score multiplier at 31 (1+5+10+15) and the following medal will be worth multiplier points equal to its base value plus 30.
Score multiplier is also increased by 100 when obtaining P icon when player's ship is at maximum power level.
The score multiplier is reset to 1 when continuing after losing the last life; the current medal value is reset after losing each life.
Reflect Force[edit]
Giga Wing is notable for having, at times, literally hundreds of enemy bullets on screen, which earns it the title of manic shooter. To prevent the player from being overwhelmed, the game features the Reflect Force. The Reflect Force is a reflective shield that is activated after the player holds the A button down for a short period of time. Any enemy bullets that come into contact with it are reflected back in the general direction it came from. If a shot is reflected and hits an enemy, it becomes a 1-point multiplier medal that can be collected; this is a major contribution to score. The reflect force can also be used to have the fighter plow through enemies.
Ridiculous scores[edit]
The reported world record score for Giga Wing is 294,631,625,840,450 points;[1] the score multiplier mechanic entails a lower limit to the average score for each enemy of many thousands or several millions of points, and end of level bonuses are scaled accordingly.
Rank system[edit]
Like other shooter games, Giga Wing contains a rank system. A player's 'rank' is determined by how well or badly they are playing, the game then adjusts the difficulty accordingly. It has been noted on one of Shmups.com's[2] strategy threads that Giga Wing contains a simple rank system that is influenced by how early a player dies in the game. If a player were to live on one life for a good duration of the game, then the bullets would begin to travel much quicker. On the other hand, if one were to die earlier in the game, the bullets would travel much slower. In fact, some players 'suicide' as soon as the game begins to take advantage of this.
The sequence of first 3 stages (lava, base, train) are changed depending on the chosen character. If the game is started with 2 players, the stage sequence is determined by player 1.
If the player can complete stage 6 with only 1 credit, the stage 7 becomes available, otherwise the game ended with pilot sacrificing its own life to win the war. In the case of 2 players, both players must complete stage 6 with only the respective beginning credits to enter stage 7.
At the end of each level the player fights a boss character, such as a battleship, a huge bomber, or a building-sized tank. Destroying the boss is not necessary to complete the level, but the player will not receive the points bonus for it unless they shoot it down before the timer runs out.
Obtaining 100% boss break also gains bonus points.
The limited-edition GigaWing Original Soundtrack was released by Sony Music Entertainment.
Dreamcast features[edit]
The Dreamcast version of Giga Wing contains a few improvements over the arcade game, as well as a few bonus features:
- Slowdown present in the arcade version was eliminated
- Remixed music
- Character art has more detail
- Slightly changed minor enemy placement
- A score attack mode
- A gallery mode
- A fifth selectable plane (the Stranger) that is unlocked by either finishing the game with only one credit or by accessing a cheat code

In the video above Museum entomologist Chris Lyal introduces us to the work of artist Mark Ines Russell.
Mark uses microscopes to examine the tiny weevils that he studies and paints. His images capture both the essential nature of the whole insect as well as details that cannot be seen with the naked eye.
Mark Russell is an entomologist and artist who worked at the Natural History Museum on the classification and naming of weevils. As well as studying them scientifically, Mark paints strikingly beautiful and very detailed images of them, which immediately and accurately communicate what the whole insects look like.
This is especially important because the weevils are too small for all details to be seen clearly with the naked eye and because specimens preserved in collections often have parts obscured.
The detailed descriptions required for the accurate classification of large numbers of relatively similar weevils requires a lot of difficult terminology. Although vital to scientific research and communication, it's often hard to get an image of the entire animal from them.
Mark's images act as surrogate specimens and many have been published in a series of books on weevils: Apionidae of the Western Palaearctic.
In 2000, the Museum purchased 2 examples of Russell's work as fine examples of late 20th-century scientific illustration.

School Bus and Children
What's better than knowing your child's toys are made of renewable, nontoxic materials? Knowing that your purchase helps to improve the lives of struggling artists in third world countries. This big yellow school bus is a Fair Trade product--handmade in Sri Lanka from albizia wood, one of the fastest-growing trees on earth, and colored with nontoxic paints. It comes from the Gospel House Handicrafts Artisan Group, which provides training and work to young adults with little prospect of employment. A great way to pay-it forward, the toy provides hours of creative play. While they "pick up" the 16 brightly painted children that come with the set, preschoolers get comfortable with the idea of the school bus, and the importance of public transportation in an increasingly carbon-conscious society. (Ten Thousand Villages, $64)

Our vision for the future is taking shape.
The illustration to the right shows what the hospital's campus could look like a decade from now.
A preliminary study suggests that a phased approach would be the most economical way to build a top-notch medical center that would serve our community well into the century.
The first phase would include a medical office building (already under construction), a parking lot and a six-story parking structure
Phase 2 could include construction of a central power plant, an outpatient services building and administrative offices.
Another feature of Phase 2 could be a new hospital building with 144 private intensive care and telemetry rooms, a new state-of-the-art emergency department and a new surgery center.
Phase 3 would add 216 medical/surgical/OB rooms, all private, in a seven-story tower. And this final phase would make new use of the current hospital building.

recorded during an orchestra reading prior to Santa Barbara premiere
Because Myra has never received the recognition she feels her gifts merit, they hatch a Plan: They will kidnap the daughter of a local wealthy industrialist, and keep her safe while the media frenzy over her abduction builds. When Myra has a "vision" that leads to the successful recovery of the girl and the ransom, her fame will be assured. As The Plan is put into action, the girl's presence in the house leads to complex psychological responses from Myra, Bill, and Arthur. The delicate balance of Myra and Bill's relationship and Myra's sanity itself begins to fray, as long-buried secrets are revealed. The Plan goes badly awry, and in Myra's final séance, the drama comes to a devastating conclusion.
of Séance on a Wet Afternoon
From Executive Producer Michael Jackowitz
From 2000-2003, Stephen Schwartz and I would frequent the NYC Opera together. During this time he was developing Wicked for Broadway and while I was certainly aware of his ability to write Broadway and pop tunes, I was amazed at his level of understanding of classical music as well. I would hear him talk with other classical composers and it really made an impression.
After Wicked opened, Stephen told me he was done writing for the musical theater. Of course I didn't believe that and said, "I don't believe that….but if it were true, I have a prediction to make. I believe you are going to write an opera." He looked at me and said, "funny you should mention that…." A year or so earlier, an agent, Peter Franklin had given Stephen the idea of adapting the film Séance on a Wet Afternoon into a musical, but he felt it was too dark for musical theater (but very interesting material for an opera). We wondered why there weren't more operas with complex stories, legit scores written for operatic voice AND 'tunes' that people long for, but that was the end of the conversation.
Fast forward to 2005. I had relocated to Southern California and was walking down State Street in Santa Barbara. There was a beautiful theater undergoing a huge renovation with a sign that said "Granada Grand Re-opening 2008." I got in touch with Steven Sharpe, the General Director of Opera Santa Barbara and pitched the idea of launching a new Stephen Schwartz opera at the Granada. He and his board loved the idea and agreed to commission their first new opera. I then called Stephen: "How serious were you about that opera idea…because you have a commission!" He was serious.
Developing this opera has been an incredible experience for everyone involved. We brought in an accomplished theater director I had worked with on tick, tick..BOOM! and My Antonia, Scott Schwartz, Stephen's son. Scott and Stephen had wanted to work on a project together for a very long time. We then approached Lauren Flanigan to be our leading lady. Heidi Ettinger came on board to do scenic design. The pieces were all coming together.
American Opera Projects (AOP) agreed to host professional readings of the first Act in Jan 2008 and the entire piece when it was completed in Nov. 2008. We have been accepted into the NYCO VOX orchestra reading program and we are all very excited to hear the first 30 minutes with a full orchestra for the first time May 1st, 2009 in NYC.
I have been documenting much of the process with Video Journal Diaries that can be seen on our Facebook Group page. Ultimately, we have developed an opera with an intense story, a legit opera score AND tunes.
Please check back to this website for exciting development and dates for upcoming productions.

Below is the poem entitled Queen of my Heart Part 1 which was written by poet
Shango. Please feel free to comment on this poem. However, please remember, PoetrySoup is a place of encouragement and growth.
Read Poems by
L'nass Shango
The queen of my heart lies here in state today, and my heart throbs,
Breaking like the darkness of any day, when she rose from her bed
And through rain and cold found her way in peasant haste and garbs
To scrub the pots, the clothes, the floor so her castle was fed.
I cannot regret her life, nor the hard gales of familiar poverty
It was her choice. My mother, Esther Jackson, in her simple life
The mold that makes great women virtuous, and wore the purple silk
Only few could see. She taught us them, nay, made us hard for strife:
This merchant ship that brought home bread, drank tea without milk
That we could form the fool in school; her hands were not afraid
To work and we learnt the royal value of industry, and took pride
Like her in doing simple things well. Against our selfishness she laid
The whipping of her tongue, and kept the best things she had inside
For strangers she expect to come. She wasted no oil, and used liberally
The rod of correction, pleading in our ears the cause of the poor
So that even a Balias, unwashed, unloved, found favor at her door.
When she told us to blow out that "Home Sweet Home" lamp, surely
You know she was saving oil, that she may have something to give away
And we may learn a person is never too poor to give, for bounty
Is not from the hands, it is from the heart. I loved this woman, the way
She prayed, calling each name and action to God, praising him happily,
And full of thanksgiving for each pound of flour and codfish she
Was able to cook at dead of night. You cannot measure her industry,
Tilling the soil, or raising hens and children, you do know her here
Whose fingers fumbled through arthritis to sew her children clothes
Who stood like a man, machete in hand, to fight the one who would dare
Disrespect her gate or threatened violence, the thorn upon the rose
Command respect, and her beauty a fragrance we can still smell today.
Our lamp never went out, our clothes had no holes if we cared

It's no secret that birthday girl Mila Kunis is one of Hollywood's hottest celebs. As evidenced by her July Interview spread, the 29-year-old seems to be getting even more gorgeous with each passing year. We've previously discussed how her perfectly shaped and bold eyebrows may totally be putting Mila on a whole new level of beauty, but this girl seems to be pretty much working everything she's got. She is striking in an unconventional way that makes us ever so intrigued about what's going on behind her large, dark eyes. She is mysterious while simultaneously being the girl-next-door … well, if you live near extremely attractive people.
OK, so clearly we have a girl crush on Mila but please tell us how it is possible not to. Not only is she one stunning lady but she radiates a refreshing confidence that is hard not to admire. Starring in successful movies like Ted, Black Swan, Friends With Benefits and The Book of Eli, Mila has demonstrated a unique amount of depth in her acting, talent that may just be the cause for her unflinching self-assurance. Not only can she completely transform into a manipulative ballerina in Black Swan but she also has a knack for comedy, apparent from her long-term involvement in shows like That '70s Show and Family Guy.
While we might still have mixed feelings regarding Kunis' recent romance with Ashton Kutcher, we definitely are not confused about how we feel about Mila. This girl is a winner. So without further ado, take a look at 29 of her hottest looks to celebrate the day this wonderous woman was born.

Kevin Clifton and Susanna Reid wow Strictly judges
Posted: October 14, 2013|
WALTHAM dancer Kevin Clifton and his dance partner Susanna Reid have been tipped to go all the way after they soared through Saturday night's second eviction on BBC's Strictly Come Dancing.
Kevin and Susanna scored 34 points for their impressive Viennese Waltz to John Denver's Annie's Song, while Kevin's fiancée Karen Hauer and her Hairy Biker partner Dave Myers survived Sunday's results show despite picking up just 16 points for their rousing dance to Meat Loaf's I'd Do Anything For Love.
TV personality Vanessa Feltz and partner James Jordan were given the chop after a dance-off with fashion designer Julien Macdonald and his partner Janette Manrara on Sunday's show, meaning 13 couples remain.
Grimsby enjoyed worldwide fame on Saturday night, trending on social networking site Twitter after Kevin, who turned 31 on Sunday, was twice referred to as "Grimsby's Kevin Clifton".

Kevin's Dad Keith said his son and partner Susanna Reid are going to be "tough to beat" and are "growing all the time" after their weekend performances.
"We were a bit worried about the Viennese Waltz because it is a very difficult dance but they accomplished it very well," said Keith, who tipped the duo to be "certainly worth a 50p each way bet to win".
"Their marks are going up and I am sure they did Grimsby proud.
"They played it slightly slower because that is the speed of the song but it was terrific.
"The most important thing to come out of Saturday was that it took away any fears that their ballroom would not be as good as their Latin.
"You have to be able to do both and now Susanna has proven she is equally good.
"They are growing all the time and have substantiated what we all thought they had which is raw talent.
"They are certainly going to be tough to beat."
On Saturday's show, Kevin and Susanna's training video saw them take to Crystal Palace's Selhurst Park pitch, in a bid to find more space to practise their waltz.
Judge Craig Revel Horwood had some criticism of Susanna's technique, to boos from the audience, but veteran panelist Len Goodman waxed lyrical about their waltz.
"This is love week and I'm in love with that waltz, it was the best [dance] I've seen tonight," he said.
Karen Hauer, and her partner Dave enjoyed mixed reviews for their dance which Keith Clifton described as "mindboggling".
Judge Craig Revel Horwood said the performance was "dreadful" while Len Goodman said it was "painful".
But Goodman described Dave as "not the judges' champion, but the people's champion."
"Some people have different ways of showing love, and that was one of them," replied Dave.
But Keith Clifton said the dance was "a real Strictly moment".
"The place was rocking," he said.
"Everybody looks forward to seeing what they are going to put on the floor which is good for the programme."
Keith and wife Judy returned from Saturday night's show for medal tests at their Clifton's Dance Academy in Waltham.
"We had a lot of kids in the studio and they all sang happy birthday down the phone to Kevin, the only problem is we woke him up," Keith said.
The next Strictly Come Dancing show is on Saturday night at 6.30pm with the results show on Sunday at 7.15pm on BBC1.

I started this as a sports blog a little over a year ago to try and share some humor in life and in sports. I think I accomplished that. Then, on September 9, 2013 at 10:22 PM, the world changed forever. It could have been a lot worse, but it took a lot of fighting, courage, pain and a miracle to make it through. I wrote a book about our story and is a raw look at the daily drama that unfolds when a loved one is injured in a car crash. Check it out, The Never Say Never Kid, and more about out story there.
I still love me some sports and am starting to resume my old self with my annual mantra of loving and hating the Cowboys. I write about my life and am raw and edgy, and I am in the process of redefining myself at this point. I promise to keep it real, and if you do not like what you read, please don't read it!
Please check out my books. I have one that is very virtuous and one that is not. Please buy several copies of both of them!

Scott Kazmir threw for scouts today, clocked in high-80s
Feb 17, 2012, 3:25 PM EDT
Scott Kazmir held a workout for scouts today and Buster Olney of ESPN.com reports that approximately 10 teams sent someone to take a look at him.
Kazmir's fastball was clocked mostly in the high-80s, which is similar to the diminished velocity he's shown while struggling during the past few seasons.
Kazmir is still just 28 years old, but hasn't been healthy and effective in the same season since 2008 and was released by the Angels following just one start last year. Overall he has a 5.54 ERA and 210/141 K/BB ratio in 299 innings over the past three seasons, but Kazmir's once-overpowering raw stuff has gradually deteriorated and he coughed up a remarkable 30 runs in 15 innings at Triple-A last year.
The fact that two-thirds of the teams didn't bother sending anyone to scout Kazmir says a lot about his chances of getting back to the big leagues, but it wouldn't be surprising if he landed a no-risk minor-league deal from one of the 10 teams in attendance.
- Detroit Michael - Feb 17, 2012 at 3:33 PM
That is remarkable indeed. Nice understatement, Aaron.
Kazmir was in the majors at an early age and threw a lot of pitches per inning due to the high Ks and high BBs. I don't think his arm is bouncing back.
- braddavery - Feb 17, 2012 at 3:37 PM
He should probably just take a full year off of any throwing activity and start anew in 2013. Maybe a year off from throwing will be good for his health and he can bounce back.
- SmackSaw - Feb 17, 2012 at 3:49 PM
Scott, call Frank Tanana. He'll tell how it's done.
- henryd3rd - Feb 18, 2012 at 4:29 AM
Scott, you should call Freddie Garcia and Bartolo Colon. Now those are guys who can show you hows its really done.
- youk75 - Feb 17, 2012 at 4:05 PM
He needs to take some time off and try to work on other pitches. If a high 80s fastball is all people are taking about, then that's not good sign.
- greasebawl - Feb 17, 2012 at 4:16 PM
I really hope Scott makes it back. He was the one bright spot on some horrible Tampa Bay Devil Ray teams during 2005-2007…
- ikedavisnose - Feb 17, 2012 at 4:24 PM
Cue the Mets ☺☺☺♥

- aaronmoreno - Feb 17, 2012 at 4:54 PM
He still bouncing that slider?
- mianfr - Feb 17, 2012 at 6:07 PM
Seems like he's kind of done. My first thought was maybe go all Freddy Garcia on him and turn him into a finesse pitcher, but honestly his control is too poor to even consider that… Time to find a nice manager and start investing his career earnings.
- tropboi11 - Feb 17, 2012 at 6:22 PM
As a Rays fan im just glad we got his good years and then traded him for Sean-Rod who has been a great utility player for us
- mlhlite - Feb 18, 2012 at 3:47 AM
he needs to call Greg Maddox or Wakefield and ask how to throw knuckleball cause thats a weak ass fastball unless ur names Maddox, beat that pittsburg will take a shot on him

Ding ding! The fight is officially ON between Kendrick Meek and Jeff Greene, who went off on each other in dueling press releases this afternoon.
First Team Meek blasted Greene's introductory video:
Miami Gardens, FL — Kendrick Meek issued the following statement in response to Jeff Greene's misleading campaign video that claimed he had not succeeded in the real world of hard work:
"I'm running for the Senate to stop Wall Street from ever again wrecking the Florida economy. Jeff Greene profited from the misery of millions of Americans who lost their home equity, if not their homes. That's not the kind of candidate the Democratic party needs, and it's not the kind of senator Florida needs.
"And I want to remind Mr. Greene that before running for office I worked as a baggage handler and a state trooper. In fact, I was number three in the entire state of Florida for DUI arrests one year. I know it's not making billions on the backs of the middle class, but saving lives on our highways is a real job."
And from Team Greene:
Paul Blank, Jeff Greene's campaign consultant issued the following response:
"It's been 4 hours since Jeff Greene announced his campaign, and already it's politics as usual."
"Kendrick Meek is a career politician in the pockets of special interests. Meek came to office in a sweetheart deal and is being helped by the special interests who fund his campaign. After being in the swamp of Washington for the last 8 years taking the special interest money while everything continued to get worse and Floridians lost their jobs, Meek, like the other career politicians in this race, wants a promotion. Predictably, rather than running on his record, Meek has resorted to smears and lies."
"Jeff Greene took on Wall Street and won and will take on Washington and win for the people of Florida. He will shake things up, create jobs and put Florida first. And unlike the 3 career politicians who have only been worried about their jobs for the last decade, Greene is running to fight for the jobs of Floridians."
And the coup de grace from Team Meek, in an email forwarding a slew of negative Greene stories. The headline:
The Reviews Are In: Jeff Greene's First Day on the Campaign is a … Flop

Get over yourself. Illegal immigrants are criminals, they are stealing from your pocket.
Was this answer helpful to you?
Jr. is angry
but, illegal immigrants DO have access to equal rights, the same as any other criminal.
if a police officer witnesses a man murder someone, even if the murder is caught on live TV and broadcast around the world. even if the murderer admits to the murder. the murderer still has to have a trial, if he pleads innocent. every criminal, including illegal immigrants have the right to refuse to speak to the police without an attorney present. if they cant afford one, America will even pay for the attorney.
what rights to you feel they do not have access to?
the right to live here illegally? i will check my copy of the Constitution, and Martin Luther King Jr speeches, but i dont think that is a civil right.
Was this answer helpful to you?
Because we are taught to be. In the aftermath of 9/11 we are told that everything is a threat to us. Since we are moving to a service economy, low paying jobs are more important to the average citizen as well. It is becoming more and more obvious that big business is using unskilled illegal immigrants to circumvent minimum wage laws, as well as to keep from having to pay federal, state, and local taxes. This has always been true in the agricultural industry, where profits are traditionally very low and consumers actually benefit from lower prices for produce. It has moved into businesses like warehousing, meatpacking plants, assembly line labor and construction however, and the benefit has moved from the consumer to the multi-national corporation which sends most of it's revenue to offshore accounts and home offices.
Illegal immigrants are also becoming more desperate since the Federal government has tightened the borders (although not so tight that the businesses still can't get their cheap labor) so that more of them are dying. Coyotes are also holding these individuals for ransom when they think they can squeeze a few dollars from the families, so it is becoming riskier and less cost effective to make the trip unless you can protect yourself. IF you can protect yourself, you become more of a danger to the families that live on the border itself. Farmers are being driven out of business due to increased security requirements and loss of revenue due to border concerns and outright theft of property by desperate border jumpers.
Keeping in mind that the majority of these people just want an opportunity to feed their families and go home again, it's a travesty that our government hasn't worked out a legal way to do this, but sincerely, there is no profit in it. As soon as this system goes legal, the unions and human rights groups get involved and suck all of the profit right out of it! If you doubt this for one moment, just take a look at what it will cost to become a citizen after July! If a person can't do what they have always done more or less legally, they won't necessarily stop doing it unless they are stopped by force. IT definitely costs more to stop these people by force, than what it is worth. None of the large corporations want that to happen anyway, so unless we get another Cesar Chavez (more applicable in this discussion) or Martin Luther King to champion for these poor victim's cause (and they are victims, just as we are becoming victims since fewer and fewer people can get one job that provides a living wage every year) the hostility and violence are going to continue to escalate. There is no easy solution and most of our resources that would normally be used to remedy this situation are currently being dumped into the black hole of terrorism.
I hope this helps to answer your question however. Americans are hostile towards illegal immigrants (and the second generation legal immigrants are some of the most hostile of all. After all, they paid their dues and did it legally, why should this group be allowed privileges that they never received?) because they are taking the jobs that nobody used to want, but that we are all being forced into because the production is moving to the third world countries. Corporations are actually moving out of Mexico and into China and India which makes the employment situation in our neighboring countries even more impossible than it was before. Mexicans are becoming increasingly hostile towards Americans because they can't even make the little bit that they used to make before and it seems that everything we do becomes a scam to trick them out of the little bit that they make. Their Country actually encourages them to come over since they can't provide jobs for them, and the corporations encourage them to come over because it is a great deal for them to be able to circumvent our own laws with cheap, foreign, under the counter labor. There must be a reason that Border Patrol Agents are allegedly going to Wal-Marts in the middle of the night to deport their work force!

As far as I can recall, Martin Luther King never once stated that he was for people coming to this country illegally.
As I recall he was an advocate for equal rights for all American CITIZENS.
What part of the word "Illegal" do some of you people fail to understand?
Was this answer helpful to you?
I think basically people feel illegals have spit on our laws.Which in essence they have.However I can also understand some people's reasoning for their desperation to try and make a better life for themselves.Our immigration process is very slow and unfortunately costly for the very ones,the poor, to try and deal with when they are desperate.Illegal immigration NEEDS to STOP.We NEED a new immigration policy that deals with today's issues not 21 years ago.Times have changed drastically since then.With the terrorist threats etc. we HAVE TO get a better system in place if for that reason alone.We can't allow people to just enter our country with no types of monitoring that's just asking for trouble.BOTH borders need better monitoring.Our port and airports do too.There is no way possible to deport as many illegal immigrants as we have.For one thing there are people who ASSUME a person is illegal due to race.How many will get turned in costing us money to check each and every report to find out the person was LEGAL?Do you see what I mean?SOMETHING HAS TO BE DONE.It's better than nothing which is what's happening.

candy g
that's mixing the two things together tho.........blacks regardless of how they came here are now allowed full rights, how they use them is mainly up to them and if they are NOT being given there is a proper recourse of action.
The hostility is in the main part the fact that they are here illegally, they are NOT putting a huge amount into the "real" economy , they can not get a drivers license as they dont have a SSN so they can NOT have car insurance, so when they hit YOUR car you are poop out of luck etc etc etc.
I feel you are taking the words he said out of context, and IMO you dont have it right yet for the people that ARE citizens stop importing loads more, after all if was the doctors and lawyers flooding the country they WOULD be coming in the right way................so it stands to reason that you are not getting the cream of the crop are you.

This isn't rocket science. If you're rude to someone, chances are they will be rude back. I don't agree with illegal immigration but I am not hostile toward anyone unless they give me a reason to be. I know Spanish, I know what the majority have to say about Americans. If they want everyone to hold them in the highest regards, they better start giving people a reason to.

Illegal immigrants are NOT CITIZENS. The speak Spanish and don't pay taxes.

Equal rights is not given to murderers, child molesters and rapists. I seriously find your logic flawed. ILLEGAL means law breaking.

Besides, MLK was a womanizing hypocrite. Yeah - I judged him by the "content of his character, not the color of his skin" just like he said to do.

Martin Luther King wants everyone who is a CITIZEN to have equal rights in this Country. Everyone has a chance to become a legal immigrant. They also have a chance to become a citizen. It involvels following the rules regarding paperwork, jobs, proper entry, keeping visas current, schooling yourself in English, working to pay your own ways. Americans are not asking for you to stop being the culture you came from, but to assimilate into ours as far as possible since YOU want to be here.
We are tired of the illegals demanding RIGHTS to which they are NOT entitled, they are not citizens, they do not have the same rights that our forefathers fought to give us. Yes, many of us were born here, however many were not and they would not in a minute behave like many of todays immigrants.
Those who belittle this country by burning our flag, staging riots, stealing, dealing drugs, profiteering in people trafficing.
Demanding that WE pay for their Food, Housing, Medical, Schooling, Legal Fees and Clothing simply because They chose to break our Laws and enter this country without proper papers is not a duty that we as Americans have to submit to.

If you were in line to see a movie, had waited 20 minutes and finally reached the ticket window only to have a family of 5 cut right in front of you, then, when you complained to managment they told you "well, they are already here&could you pay for their tickets also?" Would you be hostile? The first thing they do on American soil is criminal- send them home.

Maybe this will answer you question. By the way, illegal immigration and equal rights are two different issues.
According to ImmigrationCounters.com, here are some of the realities that Flake-Gutierrez would airbrush out of the picture:
Number of Illegal Aliens in the Country 20,807,645
Money Wired to Mexico City since January, 2006 $22,213,001,672.00
Cost of Social Security Services for Illegal Aliens since 1996 $397,450,739,563.00
Number of Children of Illegal Aliens in Public Schools 3,958,789
Cost of Illegal Aliens in K-12 Since 1996: $13, 965,063,431.00
Number of Illegal Aliens Incarcerated 332,594
Cost of Incarcerations Since 2001 $1,398,127,429.00
Number of Illegal Aliens Fugitives 642,799
Skilled Jobs Taken by Illegal Aliens 9,872,838
Figures can trick your eyes. Take particular note that items 2,3,5, and 7 reflect BILLION not millions of dollars -- and that item 3 exceeds one-third of a TRILLION dollars.
Can you imagine how much it will cost taxpayers if we triple the number of Illegals entering this country!!

You have to "earn" the rights, not just take them and feel your entitled to them.....

they can have equal rights when they become legal. and you know as well as i that martin Luther king would not want illegals using the black people to justify illegals. I'm being hateful today because the glitterbug pised me off with her ignorance. she never has anything nice to say about Americans. and your the first black i have heard say that about the illegals.?????

Martin Luther King was referring to legal citizens of this country, so you really don't have the right to bring that up. As far as being hostile. You would be hostile too if someone forced their way into your home unwanted and you paid all the bills.
Was this answer helpful to you?
Because the illegal aliens are hostile towards Americans.

King wants equal rights to all "American Citizens", illegal immigrants are NOT American Citizens.
Good God...

Civil rights for American citizens not for illegals. Illegals are not citizens so therefore have no rights.
Was this answer helpful to you?
Because the broke the law.
I'll repeats that, because I feel it bares repeating: because they broke the law!
I also oppose amnesty for thieves, murderers, and rapists.

Could it be because they're ILLEGAL and don't follow the rules for legal immigration?
Was this answer helpful to you?
For starters.. your argument is flawed:
"After all Martin Luther King jr. did for civil rights for all American citizens"
Criminal immigrants are not American citizens..
And we're hostile to criminal immigrants.. because they steal about 100 BILLION a year from us. Yes.. people stealing from me makes me hostile.

Do you really think all the illegal Mexican immigrants come here to pick lettuce?
Here are some facts you should know:
40% of all workers in L.A. County (L.A. County has 10 million people) are working for cash and not paying taxes. This was because they are predominantly illegal immigrants, working without a green card.
95% of warrants for murder in Los Angeles are for illegal aliens.
75% of people on the most wanted list in Los Angeles are illegal aliens.
Over 2/3's of all births in Los Angeles County are to illegal alien Mexicans on Medi-Cal whose births were paid for by taxpayers.
Nearly 25% of all inmates in California detention centers are Mexican nationals here illegally.
Over 300,000 illegal aliens in Los Angeles County are living in garages.
The FBI reports half of all gang members in Los Angeles are most likely illegal aliens from south of the border.
Nearly 60% of all occupants of HUD properties are illegal.
21 radio stations in L.A. are Spanish speaking.
In L.A.County 5.1 million people speak English. 3.9 million speak Spanish (10.2 million people in L.A.County).
(All 10 from the Los Angeles Times)
Less than 2% of illegal aliens are picking our crops but 29% are on welfare.
Over 70% of the United States annual population growth (and over 90% of California, Florida, and New York) results from immigration.
The cost of illegal immigration to the American taxpayer in 1997 was a NET (after subtracting taxes immigrants pay) $70 BILLION a year, [Professor Donald Huddle, Rice University].
The lifetime fiscal impact (taxes paid minus services used) for the average adult Mexican immigrant is a NEGATIVE .
29% of inmates in federal prisons are illegal aliens
Tomatoes and Cheap Labor
This should make everyone think, be you Democrat, Republican or Independent
From a California school teacher - - -"As you listen to the news about the student protests over illegal immigration, there are some things that you should be aware of:
I am in charge of the English-as-a-second-language department at a large southern California high school which is designated a Title 1 school, meaning that its students average lower socioeconomic and income levels.
Most of the schools you are hearing about, South Gate High, Bell Gardens , Huntington Park , etc., where these students are protesting, are also Title 1 schools.
Title 1 schools are on the free breakfast and free lunch program. When I say free breakfast, I'm not talking a glass of milk and roll -- but a full breakfast and cereal bar with fruits and juices that would make a Marriott proud. The waste of this food is monumental, with trays and trays of it being dumped in the trash uneaten. (OUR TAX DOLLARS AT WORK)
I estimate that well over 50% of these students are obese or at least moderately overweight. About 75% or more DO have cell phones. The school also provides day care centers for the unwed teenage pregnant girls (some as young as 13) so they can attend class without the inconvenience of having to arrange for babysitters or having family watch their kids. (OUR TAX DOLLARS AT WORK)
I was ordered to spend $700,000 on my department or risk losing funding for the upcoming year even though there was little need for anything; my budget was already substantial. I ended up buying new computers for the computer learning center, half of which, one month later, have been carved with graffiti by the appreciative students who obviously feel humbled and grateful to have a free education in America . (OUR TAX DOLLARS AT WORK)
I have had to intervene several times for young and substitute teachers whose classes consist of many illegal immigrant students here in the country less then 3 months who raised so much hell with the female teachers, calling them "Putas" whores and throwing things that the teachers were in tears.
Free medical, free education, free food, day care etc., etc., etc. Is it any wonder they feel entitled to not only be in this country but to demand rights, privileges and entitlements?
To those who want to point out how much these illegal immigrants contribute to our society because they LIKE their gardener and housekeeper and they like to pay less for tomatoes: spend some time in the real world of illegal immigration and see the TRUE costs.
Higher insurance, medical facilities closing, higher medical costs, more crime, lower standards of education in our schools, overcrowding, new diseases etc., etc, etc. For me, I'll pay more for tomatoes.
We need to wake up. The guest worker program will be a disaster because we won't have the guts to enforce it.
Does anyone in their right mind really think they will voluntarily leave and return?
There are many hardworking Hispanic/American citizens that contribute to our country and many that I consider my true friends. We should encourage and accept those Hispanics who have done it the right and legal way.
It does, however, have everything to do with culture: A third-world culture that does not value education, that accepts children getting pregnant and dropping out of school by 15 and that refuses to assimilate, and an American culture that has become so weak and worried about "politically correct" that we don't have the will to do anything about it.
If this makes your blood boil, as it did mine, forward this to everyone you know.
Isn't that what the whole immigration issue is about?
Business doesn't want to pay a decent wage.
Consumers don't want expensive produce.
Government will tell you Americans don't want the jobs.
But the bottom line is cheap labor. The phrase "cheap labor" is a myth, a farce, and a lie. there is no such thing as "cheap labor."
Take, for example, an illegal alien with a wife and five children. He takes a job for $5.00 or $6.00/hour. At that wage, with six dependents, he pays no income tax, yet at the end of the year, if he files an Income Tax Return, he gets an "earned income credit" of up to $3,200 free.
He qualifies for Section 8 housing and subsidized rent.
He qualifies for food stamps.
He qualifies for free (no deductible, no co-pay) health care.
His children get free breakfasts and lunches at school.
He requires bilingual teachers and books.
He qualifies for relief from high energy bills.
If they are or become, aged, blind or disabled, they qualify for SSI. Once qualified for SSI they can qualify for Medicare. All of this is at (our) taxpayer's expense.
He doesn't worry about car insurance, life insurance, or homeowners insurance.
Taxpayers provide Spanish language signs, bulletins and printed material.
He and his family receive the equivalent of $20.00 to $30.00/hour in benefits.
Working Americans are lucky to have $5.00 or $6.00/hour left after paying their bills and his.
The American taxpayers also pay for increased crime, graffiti and trash clean-up.
Cheap labor? YEAH RIGHT! Wake up people. THESE ARE THE QUESTIONS WE SHOULD BE ADDRESSING TO THE PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATES FOR EITHER PARTY. 'AND WHEN THEY LIE TO US AND DON'T DO AS THEY SAY, WE SHOULD REPLACE THEM AT ONCE!'

As the saying goes, there are many possible reasons for an insider to sell a stock, but only one reason to buy — they expect to make money. So let's look at two noteworthy recent insider buys.
On Monday, Alexza Pharmaceuticals Inc (ALXA)'s Director, Gordon Ringold, made a $54,000 buy of ALXA, purchasing 100,000 shares at a cost of $0.54 each. So far Ringold is in the green, up about 13.9% on their purchase based on today's trading high of $0.61. Alexza Pharmaceuticals Inc is trading trading flat on the day Thursday.
And on Tuesday, CEO John E. Crisp bought $14,690 worth of Forbes Energy Services Ltd. (FES), buying 2,825 shares at a cost of $5.20 each. Before this latest buy, Crisp made one other buy in the past year, purchasing $10,800 shares for a cost of $5.40 each. Forbes Energy Services Ltd. is trading up about 0.8% on the day Thursday. Investors have the opportunity to pick up FES even cheaper than Crisp did, with the stock trading as low as $5.06 in trading on Thursday — that's 2.7% below Crisp's purchase price.

After doing nothing to dispel rumours he's bagged a slot at Glastonbury, Paddy Power make the Prince of pop a skinny 1/3 to be announced as the Sunday night headliner down on Worthy Farm.
Elsewhere, the bookmaker makes Kasabian 6/1 second favourites after the Leicester rockers were reportedly left fuming last year after they failed to make the cut, while it's 9/1 for the Red Hot Chili Peppers and 10/1 for Guy-Manuel de Homem-Christo and Thomas Bangalter, AKA Daft Punk, to get lucky and get the nod.
Should Prince get the yes, Paddy Power is offering 11/10 for Rita Ora, who performed on the Pyramid Stage last year and has since laid down some tracks with the big man, to make a guest appearance with the star.
Meanwhile talking Purple Rain, while Somerset-on-sea is currently three feet underwater, the bookmaker makes it a depressing 20/1 for the festival to be called off due to rain or flooding, or for the 'glass half full' types there's a cheery 12/1 available for the hottest day of the year to occur during the festival.
A Paddy Power spokesman said: 'Eavis has made it crystal clear he thinks Prince is one of the biggest acts in the world and having never graced Worthy Farm, it's not surprise the odds are as skimpy 1/3'.

All of these are words that make most parents wonder:
"Do I really know what my kid is up to on the computer?"
Most of us know who to check the Internet Explorer history for visited websites but let's face it. So do the kids!
Some of us are savvy enough to set up "kids" accounts on the computer to restrict their access to websites, streaming video, etc. On the other hand you may choose not to restrict or limit your child's computer and internet access at all.
Whatever your decision is you should at least know what you options are to monitor your child activity on the computer.
And it is an ongoing challenge that constantly needs to be fine tuned and updated.
For example: Pace School employs a Barracuda Networks Web Filter solution. A sophisticated hardware application that provides web content filtering, malware protection, etc. Yet, our students constantly find ways to bypass the filter mainly by using tunnel sites. A tunnel is a website from which you "tunnel" (bypass) any web filter. Tunnel sites are being developed daily and keeping up with them can be very difficult.
So what can you do to safeguard your child from the internet without restricting them too much?
Throughout the school year, once or twice a month, I will try to "feature" some possible solutions to monitor and possibly limit your child's activity on the computer.
Please use the comment section to let us know if there is a particular area you like covered.

The International Air Carrier Association (IACA) welcomed its first fully-fledged non-European member at its annual general meeting in Palma de Mallorca this week, with the addition of Nouvelair.
The latter is is a Tunisian carrier with seven Airbus A320s and two A321s that operates on routes between the North African country and
IACA, the trade body for leisure carriers, does have two Turkish members, Atlasjet Airlines and SunExpress. However, both have significant stakes held by German shareholders.
Intriguingly, a Chinese charter carrier has indicated interest in joining the association.
The other change to the membership is that there are now a number of airlines operating a hybrid charter/seat-only model. Indeed, the organisation and its members eschew the word charter, and in recent years have preferred the term 'leisure carrier' to emphasise that the business model is not just about traditional package holidays. But with some members also carrying business passengers, this definition is also being questioned. One delegate suggested 'low-cost leisure' may be the way forward.

The Vampire Diaries
Ian Somerhalder Muses on Being in Love, Shifting Paradigms, and Buckminster Fuller
In a recent interview with Flaunt magazine, Ian Somerhalder waxed philosophical about many a topic, from empowering the youth of today to love. The Vampire Diaries star says he's continually impressed with the show's young fans. "What you can change is the next generation; generational change is the only thing that's going to shift the paradigm," explains Ian. As those who have helped out his organization, the Ian Somerhalder Foundation, know, Ian's passionate about a variety of issues, from the Keystone pipeline to mistreated and endangered animals.
Although Deepak Chopra and Allan Savory — whom Somerhalder wants to win the Nobel Prize — are amongst Ian's spiritual and environmental inspirations, he's also a student of the past — especially when it comes conserving natural resources. "I am fed more information on a daily basis than I know what to do with, but if you start to study the history of the most phenomenal thinkers of modern times, guys like Buckminster Fuller, who in the '40s designed cars that ran on ethanol that got 60 miles to a gallon that transported four people … What I'm saying is that we are perpetually pushed backwards technologically … Wouldn't it be better to show [oil companies] really amazing technologies that they can actually invest their money in?" Ol' Bucky doesn't get too many shoutouts these days; well done, Ian.
And if you're hoping he'd hint at his relationship with Nina Dobrev, here's one cryptic quote you could spend all day deciphering: "I mean, I know what it's like to be in love, trust me, and it's a very interesting game because it always inextricably brings up our deepest darkest insecurities. It's just a matter of being able to see them, appreciate them, squash them, and let them go before they get the best of you." And what, pray tell, would Ian Somerhalder have to be insecure about? Being too handsome, inspirational, and lovable?
