With all the talk about Obamacare lately, I thought I might ask a few questions.
- How many know that the original plan for "affordable health care" came from the Heritage Foundation, a right-wing think tank?
- How many understand that it is the same plan being used in Massachusetts, and it has been in use for a number of years with no problems?
- If it were really evil incarnate, would tank our economy and make our president look bad, wouldn't those politicians on the right just let it happen? After all that has been their stated goal for the past five years.
No, I think their biggest problem is they have labeled it Obamacare and they can't stand to have that as a reminder for all time!

The Republicans don't like the idea, that a black president will get credit for the "Affortable Health Care Plan." They are most likely planning to delete that fact from future history books.

Race card! Still won't admit, the GOP members are not racists! Continue wearing your blinders and keeping covering your ears with your hands.
PeggyJoy 1 year, 10 months ago
By the way, ImJustSayin.............don't even talk about the race card being played. The GOP is and always has been a racist party, which is one of the main reason so many are drawn to it.

This is a quote from one of your links:
"Obama's election provided an opportunity to recover from the loss of white privilege in recent decades. Rich white people are not so much racist as they are conservative of their wealth and privilege."
DUH - they earned it and want to spend it! This Robert Parry is the racist and race-baiter of all times - He is one of many (Sharpton, Jackson, MSNBC, CNN and I could go on and on) that are causing divisive race relations in the US today.
PeggyJoy 1 year, 10 months ago
Colin Powell's former chief of staff Col. Lawrence Wilkerson publicly stated that the Republican Party is "full of racists" who only want President Obama out of office because of "the color of his skin". "Let me just be candid: My party is full of racists," Wilkerson said on MSNBC's "The Ed Show." "And the real reason a considerable portion of my party wants President Obama out of the White House has nothing to do with the content of his character, nothing to do with his competence as commander in chief and president, and everything to do with the color of his skin. And that's despicable."

Mr McCutcheon - If somebody told you to follow them over a cliff you and multiples of Liberals would be right on your heels.
Your first statement is false: This was brought to you by the 111th Congress
This was brought to you by your adorable Nancy Pelosi and friends. Second this Affordable Care Act does not come close to comparing with the Massachusetts health bill. The Romneycare plan was 70 pages compared to 2700 pages of Affordable Care Act. The Romneycare plan did not raise taxes or reap funds from some other source. The Affordable Care Act is going to use $1 Trillion dollars ($500 billion in tax hikes & $500 billion robbed from Medicare) to start with. Romneycare was also passed with bi-partisan support but the Affordable care act was forced through with Democrat partisan vote. There are multiple other differences as well.
On top of the blatant exaggerations (I did not say lies) what does race have to do with the President being a Narcissistic Ideologue? But have a nice day anyway.

namvet: What is your source for a 500 billion dollar tax hike? The savings by removing luxury coverage under medicare was a cost benefit to the taxpayers and a cut in the extra money going to insurance companies. Medicare Advantage was costing 14% more than standard medicare and it was all going to insurance companies, not to medical care.

Wait - my error - that last part is already true.

The Heritage Foundation did float a plan in 1989 that superficially has some things in common with Obamacare, principally an individual mandate, but in reality, there's a world of difference, particularly in that the HF plan encouraged consumer price consciousness of both insurance and health care itself by separating insurance coverage from employment making ALL plans individual plans, focused them on protection against catastrophic events, and left most routine health care needs paid for out-of-pocket (exactly like the plan I've always had). Tax benefits (including subsidies for the poor) were superior for directly paid costs than for insured costs, again encouraging price consciousness. It also made Medicare more of a subsidy for individual plans than a reimbursement system.
Obamacare turned all that on its head, leaving most insurance still provided through employers, requiring coverage for routine things people could more realistically have shopped for (preventive care), and more heavily subsidizing insurance than directly paid costs. It also does nothing to impose price-consciousness on Medicare spending or anything else. In many ways, Obamacare is the anti-Heritage plan, not the son-of-Heritage plan.
And the Massachussetts plan implemented during Romney's administration has proven to increase costs and actually increase the number of uninsured. It has been a failure in economic terms, although Massachussetts being an extremely liberal state, it has enjoyed popularity nevertheless. I have no problem with Obamacare implemented on a state-by-state basis; I can always move. It's the national mandates that are inescapable and a waste of my money.

The very best question is number 3. If this was going to do all the things Republicans are screaming about, plus destroy this President's legacy, I guarantee they would be lining up to move it through without a peep.
PearlY 1 year, 10 months ago
I know the hatred and contempt some liberals feel toward Republicans is visceral and beyond all reason, but sit back and try to re-engage your brain for a minute: Do you really think Republicans want their own and their country's health care and economies ruined just in order to "destroy this President's legacy"? Do you really think millions of Americans have their eyes firmly focused on the history books of decades from now, instead of the dollars being plucked from their bank accounts today and the imminent destruction of the best health care options available anywhere?
NewInWW 1 year, 10 months ago
You ask: "Do you really think Republicans want their own and their country's health care and economies ruined just in order to "destroy this President's legacy"?"
Absolutely, and it started before Obama took office. There was something about a black, Democratic progressive that drove them insane from the moment the election results were in.
Congressional Republicans have been substantially more interested in avoiding a Tea Party primary opponent than governing in an even remotely responsible way. And I don't hate Congressional Republicans, but my contempt for them as a group couldn't be stronger.
As for the rest, when the "best health care options" include no health care for so many, I'd question the use of the word "best."
PearlY 1 year, 10 months ago
Sorry, the race card is no longer the wild card in the deck. It's barely even IN the deck anymore. It's convenient for YOU that you get to label anyone who disagrees with you a racist, since that allows you to label them and ignore them, but Bill Clinton advocated many of the same policies, was disagreed with just as vigorously (more, in fact, since Obama hasn't been impeached yet), and his title as the first black president was only honorary.
ALL politicians want to avoid primary opponents and win re-election. It's a curiosity of democracy that the way to do that is to try to keep your constituents reasonably satisfied. Call them 'tea' names if you want, but constituents in Republican districts seem to WANT their representatives to fight Obamacare.
I commend your restraint on your contempt though. Mine extends not only to your party, but well into most of mine.
PeggyJoy 1 year, 10 months ago
If you HAVE been paying attention..........the GOP has done a damn good job of destroying this country, since Reagan was elected. Most likely YOU have and are making use of any/all liberal programs, that you seem to detest/bad mouth all the time.
Like I told of frined of mine, that was bad mouthing the liberal/Demoracts. If you hate them so much, then reimburse our government with your Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid benefits. I really wouldn't like for you, Pearl, to feel like we "liberals" forced these on you.
PearlY 1 year, 10 months ago
I've never received Social Security, Medicare or Medicaid benefits. (Or welfare, food stamps, subsidized housing, or any other entitlement program, and only three years of public education, which was worth pretty much what I paid for it, but I was compelled by law to attend.)
And if you "liberals" would repay to me the Social Security and Medicare contributions I made during my work life, inflation-adjusted to today's dollars, I'd not only waive those benefits in the future, but waive all interest on the money as well. (Of course, in fairness, I ought to be repaid at the same rate of return I've earned on my privately invested retirement funds.) I'm not even asking for the general tax dollars, state and federal, that have gone to Medicaid.
Where should I pick up my check and sign my waivers?
PearlY 1 year, 10 months ago
As I recall, two of the principal goals of Republicans of the Reagan era were the defeat of the Soviet Union without triggering a nuclear war, and a reduction in violent crime. The Cold War was brought to a peaceful conclusion, with Eastern Europe liberated and proxy wars ended, and violent crime has plummeted. I guess you feel these accomplishments were bad things for the country?
pdywgn 1 year, 10 months ago
I've paid into Social Security and Medicare my entire adult life and have collected a total of not one cent. PeggyJoy please enlighten me as to how much I have to reimburse the Government? These payments are taken out of my paycheck automatically, so yeah they are forced on me. These funds have been robbed by both democrats and republicans for over 40 years, but only the liberal democrats add to the theft by concluding that I would somehow owe them a reimbursement.
PeggyJoy 1 year, 10 months ago
We're in the same boat! My pension will NOT allow me to double dip. I have a choice of either my Social Security or my pension. I took the pension, which is twice as much.
More than likely, then your are collecting a pension; and can't double dip. So you want your Social Security..............then refuse your pension.
PearlY 1 year, 10 months ago
Ah! A former government employee. Those (and a few religious workers) are the only people who got the huge privilege of opting out of Social Security for many years. It's not very nice to brag about how good you had it compared to the rest of us.
Also helps explain your bias and your self-interest in the positions you take. Your future income depends on the ability of government to keep extracting ever larger shares of the economy.
PeggyJoy 1 year, 10 months ago
LOL A former government employee! Bragging! Your Republican colors are showing, PearlY. No, I have never worked for the government. The corporation, that my husband was employed by for 43 years, gave me the option of receiving a pension, which was 1/2 of what my husband's, plus benefits; or take Social Security. (My Social Security goes into the pot, that helps you!)
So like a typical Republican, PearlY, you draw conclusions about people without knowing the facts. According to you everyone must be on the dole!
No, PearlY, I'm a Progressive Democrat and proud of it. Since both of us have worked for 43 years, and have no children; we have paid more than our share of taxes. And neither one of us begrudge our taxes going towards helping others in this country.
PearlY 1 year, 10 months ago
The only way what you describe happens is if the pension you are receiving (in this case, your husband's) was earned while NOT contributing to Social Security. That is usually government workers, but there are a few other cases, like people who were working outside the country. It wasn't your husband's company that gave you the option, it was a requirement of the Windfall Elimination Provision law that closed a loophole allowing some people to reap an unearned windfall.
If you had to choose between a private pension and Social Security, then by definition you did not pay your "share of taxes" as it related to Social Security. You may not think it's bragging to rub it in to the rest of us that you had it better than we did, but that's what it amounts to.
By the way, if you think you paid "more than" your share of taxes, then you obviously DO begrudge the taxes you paid.

PeggyJoy 1 year, 10 months ago
Nam, Nam, Nam! What can I say! Seems you STILL can think for yourself! Can't comprehend the "Affordable Healthcare Act," YET? I'm positive, that you and Pearl would and will benefit from it; just like many other Democrat policies, that have be around for decades. So both of you......actually read/study the info available on "Affordable Healthcare Act," and quit biting of your noses to spite yourselves.
By the way..........if your sources are from Fox News......Murdoch and Ailes have made it quite clear, but you were not listening! "We don't have to tell you the truth," which seems to be the mantra of ALL Republican in the media. You know, Nam, if I were you, I would be extremely angry for them lying to me.
PeggyJoy 1 year, 10 months ago

namvet60 1 year, 10 months ago
PeggyJoy - its not difficult to respond to your comments in fact I see that your above post you liked so much you posted it twice. Also indicating that a "silly old law" would prevent you from double dipping.
First I would say that the surprise is that usually people by retirement age outgrow the gullible stage but I guess you've got a ways to go.
In your previous posts you have condemned the hard working American by paying his taxes and Social Security and in turn at retirement age start drawing those monies out. Then in kind you brag about leaving your Social Security for someone else while you draw half a pension off from someone else's hard work. Along with that pension you probably have a health plan along with it subsidized by the company. While bragging about how good you have it while condemning others is very typical of the Progressive Liberals lifestyle.
All I can say is watch yourself because Karma has its way of putting a kink in the best laid plans. And to say the least you are a pathetic person.
PeggyJoy 1 year, 10 months ago
Did I say there was a law stating I could not "double dip?" NO, I didn't. The corporation, that my was employed with for 43 years doesn't allow the "double dipping." You have either two choices: collect their pension (which is a benefit to ALL spouses) or collect Social Security. I really beat you would have taken the Social Security, which is the lesser of the two! RIGHT! LOL Also, if you have retired from the same corporation, I JUST BE you would have told them, that your wife wouldn't take the pension they offered. RIGHT! LOL Also, you would had your wife refused the health plan, also!
Only one here that is pathetic is YOU. Typical Republican. YOU don't knnow a damn thing about Progressive Liberal.
namvet60 1 year, 10 months ago
PeggyJoy - apparently from your incoherent post I must have struck a nerve - almost like keyboard rage? You must have blown spellcheck right off your computer.

Why is it that the people behind Obama and his health care atrocity are so demeaning to anyone who disagrees? Why hasn't the Senate passed a budget in 5 years? If anyone studies history the Republican party ended slavery, so how are they racist again? The majority of the people I speak with (a wide range of people) think Obama is a terrible president and could care less about his half black background. Race is not skin color it's pigmentation, most of us have some shade of it.
Stop and think for a second. More people covered with Obamacare, less doctors and it will save you money. Which only works if the millions of young (healthy) people signup and there is no incentive for them to do so... How can anyone think that is possible.
See intelligent dialog can be made without criticism.

New Year Enquiry Steady- all from websites 08/02/2011
Since being back on board from 10th January 2011 I am pleased to say that leasing enquiry has been steady, all coming from websites. The enquiry is genuine, from tenants wanting to commit to new premises for the New Year- resulting in 3 lease agreements being written and concluded in one week. Good quality office spaces are still being sort in the city and the fringe areas, with owners maintaining their asking rental rates. The only difference being that tenants are taking a shorter view on lease terms of a minimum of 2 years. Building owners are agreeing to these shorter lease terms with minimum resistance. I am in the process of updating office availabilities and putting these options onto my website so keep an eye out for some new opportunities in the coming weeks. www.suecollis.co.nz

Knowledge of Arabic contributes not only to our geopolitical connectivity with Arabic speaking countries; it also contributes to students' work in the interdisciplinary program of Islamic studies and in anthropology, comparative literature, history, linguistics, religion, sociology, and other fields. Study of Arabic language through the third year and study abroad are particularly recommended for students who want to develop proficiency for research or fieldwork. Interested students are urged to begin studying the language early in their academic careers, to have time to develop a useful level of language proficiency and to be prepared to study in an immersive program abroad.
First-, second-, and third-year Arabic are offered every year; first-year Arabic has no prerequisites and is open to everyone except native speakers. Native or heritage speakers of Arabic should consult with the Arabic faculty for placement. Courses in literature in translation, culture, and film are also open to all students. Students of Arabic language are urged to take these courses and others related to the Arab world in Islamic studies, sociology and anthropology, history, political science, and religion to gain perspective on classical and contemporary Arab culture.
Introductory and Intermediate Arabic are intensive courses that carry 1.5 credits per semester. Study abroad is particularly encouraged for students of Arabic; academic credit (full or partial) is generally approved for participation in programs recommended by the Arabic section. These include, but are not limited to universities and non-university programs in Egypt, Jordan, Lebanon, Morocco, Oman, and Tunisia.
Courses in Arabic Language, Literature, and Culture
As a Tri-College language program, Arabic is offered at the first- and second-year level at Swarthmore, Bryn Mawr, and Haverford Colleges. Third-year Arabic language, other advanced language courses, and introductory courses in Arabic literature and culture are offered at Swarthmore. Other courses are available at the University of Pennsylvania and elsewhere in the Philadelphia area.
The Academic Program
Coursework in Arabic can be part of a special major or a special honors major, as well as part of a major or minor in comparative literature.
Arabic is a central component of Swarthmore's Islamic Studies program, an interdisciplinary program that focuses on the diverse range of lived experiences and textual traditions of Muslims as they are articulated in various countries and regions throughout the world.
Arabic is also a valuable addition to programs in Humanities and the Social Sciences and can be part of the major in Languages and Linguistics, through the Linguistics Department.
Special Major
Students may arrange to do a special major or an honors special major in Arabic after consultation with faculty in Arabic and the department chair. Work abroad will be incorporated when appropriate.
Application Process for the Major
Applicants for a Special Major in Arabic must consult with the Arabic section head and be approved by the relevant faculty members and the department of Modern Languages and Literatures.
International Baccalaureate Credit
Students presenting IB credit in Arabic language or literature should consult with the faculty in Arabic.
Transfer Credit
The Arabic faculty will assist students in estimating credit for study of Arabic language and related topics abroad. Transfer credit (from study abroad or from courses taken at other institutions in North America) will be evaluated after students return to campus. Students should consult with the faculty in Arabic to estimate credit before studying abroad.
Off-Campus Study
Study abroad is crucial to gaining proficiency in Arabic because it allows immersion and significant cultural exposure. Studying Arabic in an environment where it is widely spoken exposes the student to natural language use outside the classroom. Modern Standard Arabic is the official or co-official language of Algeria, Bahrain, Chad, Djibouti, Egypt, Iraq, Jordan, Kuwait, Lebanon, Libya, Morocco, Oman, Palestinian West Bank and Gaza, Qatar, Somalia, Sudan, Syria, Tunisia, Mauritania, United Arab Emirates, and Yemen. Large numbers of Arabic speakers also live in Iran and France (about 600,000 speakers each), and Turkey (about one million) Students are urged to consult closely with the faculty in Arabic as well as the
Off-Campus Study
Office in planning study abroad.
Research and Service-Learning Opportunities
Academic Year Opportunities
Some study abroad programs can arrange internships or other kinds of special opportunities for students.
Summer Opportunities
Like other programs in the Humanities, Arabic welcomes student proposals for guided summer research and will advise students applying for a Humanities Research Fellowship at the College.
Life After Swarthmore
Career possibilities that utilize foreign language skills parallel the opportunities of liberal arts graduates in general, with a strong focus on international or multicultural aspects. Obvious career paths for Arabic Special Majors are the professions in which foreign language is a primary skill—language teaching, academia, translation and interpretation, or working with non-governmental organizations (NGOs). But as communication, travel, and business endeavors have expanded in the global marketplace, now even relatively small organizations may need to communicate with partners, clients, or customers in other languages, in the U.S. as well as in other countries.
ARAB 001–002. Intensive Elementary Modern Standard Arabic
Students who start in the 001–002 sequence must complete 002 to receive credit for 001.
The purpose of this course is to develop students' proficiency and communication in modern standard Arabic in the four basic language skills: listening, speaking, reading (both oral and for comprehension), and writing.

The course will start with the 19th century but emphasize discussions following the military defeat of 1967 and the ensuing cultural and political crisis. Discussions related to "turath" (heritage), the different strategies of its reading and interpretation, and the possibilities of using these readings to confront contemporary challenges will be the center of attention of the course. Readings will comprise three types of texts: those providing historical and social background, translations by the different thinkers under discussion, and articles and essays that interpret and critique these thinkers.

Going out in style
The year 1984 was made memorable long before it happened by George Orwell's novel looking toward a future of sophisticated totalitarianism.
The year itself saw Carl Lewis win four gold medals at the Summer Olympics, Martina Navritilova and John McEnroe win Wimbledon championships, Michael Jackson win eight Grammy awards and Ronald Reagan crush Walter Mondale to win his second term in the White House.
And that year, Ron Benson became the coach of the Chapel Hill High School girls' soccer team. Many parents of today's high school students may well still have been in grade school.
In the 30 years since, Benson has mentored hundreds of young women, paced many a sideline and won almost 400 soccer matches.
But one big win eluded him. In all those years, his teams never even made it to the state championship game.
Until this year.
Then, in a storybook ending fit for an inspirational movie, this year's team gave him the greatest retirement gift for which he could have hoped. They beat Weddington High School – from Waxhaw, near Charlotte – to claim the school's first-ever girls soccer championship.
"If you had told me to write the story, I probably wouldn't have written it this way," said Benson, who is 73 and will hang up his whistle June 13.
You don't coach for 30 years without developing a certain resilience. Even though the Tigers trailed 1-0 at the half, Benson said afterward he was confident. "We just have good players," he said. "We tell them just go back and play our game …We always have faith through our girls. This is a special team."
And, we suspect they would add, a special coach who understates his role in helping the team figure out a way to counter an unusual Warrior offense.
In any event, Chapel Hill finally tied the score at 1-1 with just under 27 minutes left in the match – then scored what turned out to be the game-winner with just 1:33 to play.
Benson and his team celebrated together after the win, and senior Megan Dell probably spoke for all her teammates. "As a player, you're doing it for your coach, your doing it for your teammates, you're doing it for your family, you're doing it for your school…"
Saturday, we suspect, that part about doing it for the coach was especially and rewardingly true.
For his part, Benson said he might come back from time to time as a volunteer, "if they want me to come help them with drills in practice or something."
But mostly, he's looking forward to a different challenge.
"I grew up surfing and haven't been able to do it as much as I wanted to, but now I'm going to," he said Saturday.
He surely has earned the right to pursue his neglected hobby. And we congratulate him and the Tigers for sending him on his way with a richly deserved state championship trophy.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR: Selectively Offended?
POULSBO - Reader Submitted
Regarding the offensive images portrayed outside Planned "Parenthood" — which so often results in counsel for fetal death and non-parenthood — I also am offended, but am glad for the signs' disincentive for choice to terminate birth.
We live in a strange world where we tolerate and even pay for entertainment to be offended by prevalent media images, yet we want no reminders of realistic offenses such as war, abortion, suicide or capital punishment.
Yes, I dislike exposing children to the awful truth of fetal death, but where's the outcry over the more damaging daily fodder of sex, violence and even torture, as entertainment that we allow our kids to be fed TV and movies?

Series Information:
Title: Ninjago: Masters of Spinjitsu
Genres: action, martial arts
Themes: ninja
Vintage: 2010
Status: ongoing
Long before time had a name, Ninjago was created by the first Spinjitzu Master using the four Golden Weapons of Spinjitzu; the Scythe of Quakes, the Nunchucks of Lightning, the Shurikens of Ice and the Dragon Sword of Fire. Weapons so powerful, no one could possess them all at once. For decades, Ninjago was balanced with good and evil, and peace was maintained under the watchful eyes of the master. When he passed away, his two sons swore to protect the weapons, but the eldest was consumed by darkness and wanted to possess the weapons for his own nefarious purposes. A battle between brothers broke out, and the eldest was struck down into the Underworld. Peace returned, and the younger brother hid the four weapons, but knowing his brothers relentless ambition, he placed a guardian that would protect the weapons. And, in fear of his own demise, he created a map for a poor blacksmith, which was hidden with care. The older brother is Lord Garmadon, the younger brother Sensei Wu, and the blacksmith the father of the main character, Kai. Now Garmadon has taken command of the undead legions of the Underworld and is searching the land of Ninjago for the four Golden Weapons to exact his revenge on his brother, Wu. Now Sensei Wu has gathered four brave ninja; Kai, Master of Fire; Cole, Master of Earth; Zane, Master of Ice, and Jay, Master of Lightning. Together, they must train to defeat their skeletal foes and find the golden weapons, and eventually defeat Lord Garmadon.

This is not a question with an easy answer, because, fortunately, Russell has written and directed a nifty little war movie that defies convenient categorization. Based on a story by John Ridley and 18 months of post-Gulf War research by Russell, this tale of mercenaries and morality summons common expectations of the genre only to skewer them. The criticism lately leveled against a certain veteran director applies equally well here that violence and viscera needn't be celebrated graphically to make an effective movie but Russell counterbalances his gratuitous wankery with doses of irreverent wit. The result is a war movie less opposed to war than to dull, crusty philosophies. World War II? Been there. Vietnam? Done that. Really, is there anything left to say about nationalist valor or disillusioned rage? Three Kings makes its bid on new ideological turf by giddily dissecting the essence of fighting itself.
Of course, this isn't so much a war story as a politically charged fiction, an adventure set immediately after the Gulf War. It is March 1991, and George Bush's high-tech Desert Storm has left a squadron of American troops restless in the Iraqi desert. Archie Gates (George Clooney) is a divorced and cynical Green Beret who's not above a little slap and tickle to pass the two weeks before his voluntary retirement. Chief Elgin (Ice Cube) is a resolute Christian, an airport baggage handler whose tour of duty reveals the resiliency of his personal creed. Troy Barlow (Mark Wahlberg) is a new father and doting husband whose patriotism is paralleled by his urge to party. Aided by Conrad Vig (Spike Jonze), a white-trash caricature who, curiously, idolizes Barlow, the men set upon their quest: Barlow and Vig have discovered a map between the buttocks of a stripped, surrendered Iraqi soldier. Elgin and Gates stumble onto their clandestine meeting, and the four decide to seek a stash of stolen Kuwaiti gold bullion.
"What is the most important thing in life?" Gates asks his subordinates after their treasure hunt's first near-miss. They've whetted their appetites for excitement by this point, skeet-shooting Nerf footballs from their speeding Humvee and blasting American classic rock (à la Apocalypse Now, in this case the Beach Boys' "I Get Around"). They've met oppressed Iraqi civilians and a few of Saddam Hussein's troops face-to-face, so the complexity of their original back-before-lunch plan is starting to dawn on them. The younger men make their guesses: "Respect?" "Love?" "God's will?" Gates, a pragmatic sort of guy, tells them the answer is necessity. In this case, that means that what is most necessary to Hussein's troops is to put down the civilian uprising. Therefore the temporarily AWOL Americans are free to plunder the booty without interruption.
Or so they think. As Three Kings unfolds, these men find themselves spiraling into complications they never anticipated. Traveling from bunker to village, mosque to minaret, they discover that, despite the recent official cease-fire, their self-serving mission may become painful and messy. What starts out as simple Yankee greed quickly escalates into the bloody stuff of battle. Caught between the civilians, who provoke their empathy (and, eventually, solidarity), and the Iraqi army, who have the sheer nerve to fight back when their posts are invaded, these soldiers of fortune learn a lot more than they bargained for about the culture of the land they've been parking on and bombing.
As a truly surprising breath of fresh air, so do we. Though countless standard-issue Hollywood racial slurs are hurled against the Arabs near the beginning of the movie, these serve primarily to illustrate the ignorance of the characters who spout them. Once the smug comfort of their base camp is stripped away, the foreign soldiers start meeting the natives eye-to-eye. For the project, dialects, religious motifs, cultural icons and general behavior were overseen by a team of Iraqi advisors, including Sayed Moustafa Al-Qazwini (a religious leader), Sermid Al-Sarraf (an attorney), and Al No'mani (an actor and filmmaker). The contributions of these men cannot be underestimated; many Americans (and American producers) would be all too happy to doom the Iraqis to being this generation's version of the Axis, the "Reds" or "Charlie." By bringing forth subtlety and vast diversity not only between the U.S. and Iraq but within Iraq itself these men have made a major contribution to mainstream American cinema.
Acting as a sort of lightning rod for much of this cross-cultural illumination is Amir, leader of an Iraqi rebellion, played without a wink of irony by native New Zealander Cliff Curtis (The Piano, Insider). Amir, once an entrepreneur, has lost everything to Hussein's army but his daughter and his hope, and, once the matter of the gold is sorted out fairly, he joins the heroes for an exodus to freedom. Though it is certainly strange for Curtis to be playing a Middle Easterner, his conviction as Amir is beyond reproach.

The signs of Alzheimer's disease were not immediately evident. At the first grocery store, her grandmother forgot the pumpkin and a few other items for the holiday dinner. "It's not a big deal. Everyone forgets sometimes," the granddaughter tried to assure her.
Too embarrassed to return to the store, her grandmother insisted on going to another market. And then another. And then another.
By the end of the grocery store excursion, the granddaughter, just home for the holidays, began to realize the extent of her grandmother's cognitive impairment. The family would soon have to make some tough decisions about medical care and living arrangements.
Paul Schulz, MD, associate professor of neurology at UTHealth Medical School, said this is a common scenario that plays out when families gather for the holidays.
"We tend to get an increase in calls during the holidays or right after the first of the year," said Schulz, who directs the Brain Health Clinic, which is part of the UT Center for Healthy Aging and UTHealth's Consortium on Aging. "Children and grandchildren come home for the holidays and get a glimpse of the problems."
Because of the prevalence of Alzheimer's disease and other forms of dementia, UTHealth's retiree organization, which is known as UTHRO, is raising funds to benefit the Brain Health Clinic, which assesses cognitive health and treats older adult patients.
"This is a cause near and dear to my heart as the statistics for developing dementia as a senior are just dreadful," said Frances Poole Knight, chair of the UTHealth Excellence Fund Steering Committee for UTHRO.
Gifts to the Excellence Fund will enable the Brain Health Clinic to augment the work the health care team does in coordinating resources for families, helping to educate patients and families and in managing memory and cognitive health.
"With this type of support, we can expand resources that are so critical to improving the quality of life for both the patients and their families," said Schulz, who also directs the Dementia, Memory Disorders, and Cognitive and Behavioral Dysfunction Program for the Mischer Neuroscience Institute at Memorial Hermann Hospital – Texas Medical Center.

Following the recent crash of Dana aircraft, which resulted in the death of 153 persons, NIKE POPOOLA writes on the role of different insurance covers meant to protect air travellers and third parties.
Ever the years, the foreign insurance and reinsurance firms have continued to be the major players in the insurance of aircraft in Nigeria.
The aviation insurance is a juicy business area, which is domiciled in dollars. However, it can be very costly to the underwriters, most especially in the event of a major loss because it is always accompanied by huge claims.
In the absence of plane crashes, insurance of aircraft could be very lucrative. It is one of the major areas of capital flight in the country. This is because the level of involvement of local underwriters in the business is still very low.
Unfortunately, each time any plane had dropped, it had always been trailed by controversies because these underwriters and foreign insurers usually delayed the payment of claims or under paid the relatives of the victims.
Local underwriters had always blamed this on the fact that they only took a minimal part of the risk, while the foreign reinsurers took the major portion.
Insurance of aircraft consist of three major aspects, which include the passengers' liability, the third party liability and the insurance of the haul.
The Managing Director, Anchor Insurance Company Limited, Mr. Ademayowa Adeduro noted that it was mandatory that an airline should be properly insured before it could be given the license to fly.
According to him, the passengers liability cover compensation should be paid to those who are in the plane if it crashes, while the third party liability covers damages that may be done to the lives and properties of those on ground, if the plane should crash on them.
He also noted that it was necessary to insure the haul, which is the aircraft itself.
Adeduro, however, expressed worry that most times, when such huge losses occured, it was usually discovered that the underwriters did not charge appropriate premium to do the business.
He noted that because of the nature of the risk and the huge capacity required to do the business, there were some pool of funds into which insurers had been contributing into, to enhance the capacity to do such business.
He said, "There is the African Aviation Ppool, which is under the management of Africa Reinsurance, and that combines all the risks of African countries."
The insurer noted that generally, the claims profile in Africa had not been encouraging because of several cases of plane crashes which the region had recorded.
These incessant mishaps, he noted, had made getting an aviation cover very expensive because local underwriters lacked sufficient capacity to underwrite a larger proportion of the risk.
The foreign underwriters, who are the major insurers, he added, had continued to charge outrageous rates in order cover the risks.
He said, "There is poor maintenance of the aircraft and infrastructure. All these have made aviation insurance very expensive. The foreign reinsurers charge high, and penalise us for the poor risks that we are introducing."
Consultant, National Insurance Commission, Mr. Yemi Soladoye, observed that all over the world, 90 per cent of plane crashes occurred as a result of human error.
An aviation accident, he noted, could also be caused by bad weather. Expressing his disappointment, he said that just when there was high anticipation for no mishap in the aviation industry in the last 10 years, unfortunately, the recent crash of the DANA airline was a bad loss.
Soladoye said, "In general, in the past six years, we have had a record that compares favourably well with what happens in the developed world. Unlike years before 2006. I think there has been a lot of improvement in our air travel."
The former President, Institute of Loss Adjusters of Nigeria, Mr. Darlington Mgbojikwe, said that in the country, a larger percentage of the aviation risk was usually insured abroad.
He added that planes were not allowed or given the license to fly without proper insurance cover. The passengers in the plane, he noted, were covered under insurance policy.
He said, "A comprehensive cover for the passengers and third party is mandatory. However, in the aspect of the insurance of the aircraft, the operator may decide to have higher cover if he has more aircraft and exposure, but if it is smaller, he may decide to have smaller cover."
The loss adjuster noted that the people whose properties were damaged when the plane crashed would also be compensated to the minimum amount of insurance stipulated by the regulator.
Explaining the insurance of the aircraft, he said that it depended on the value that the operator placed on it.
Some operators, he said, might not want to pay much premium on their aircraft, depending on the size, number of aircraft and the coverage.
While there is no fixed amount to be paid to the third party, he said such covers were usually regulated.
He said, "The regulator may say that the minimum you may cover for third party is $10m. The operator may decide to go for a higher rate depending on the kind of exposure and number of aircraft. If you have more aircraft, you have wider coverage and vice versa."

By the time we got to round three, another problem had manifested itself: Portions at Mosaic are small, even for tapas. Few dishes sustained a full pass around the table. The "roasted sea scallop" described on the menu was just that: a single, nine-dollar disk perched upon a mound of braised leeks and shaved beef, virtually impossible to share. Ditto the lone Maryland crab cake.
There was one server at Mosaic who kind of annoyed me. She kept setting things down unceremoniously, and then telling us what it was in an inaudible whisper, as though she couldn't care less -- kind of like a magician who never bothers to throw in a "Ta-da!" Throughout the meal, used saucers were removed without being replaced with clean ones (at one point, we resorted to stealing a fresh stack from a nearby table), and communal platters were taken away when there were still a couple of bites left on them -- quite the buzzkill considering how wee and pricey the portions are to start with.

I really like the design of the Revolution; it's not necessarily practical (and of course, serious vinyl fans will blanch – blanch! – at the unprotected record) but it's definitely tiny and the price is right – only $US150. It runs on battery power (they'll probably go with rechargeable AA) or AC, has a USB out and a 3.5mm headphone jack (no RCA-out). It's not really meant for your entertainment console, hooked up to a real stereo, but for a bedroom turntable it sounds really great. It also will feature software (probably made by a veeeery interesting partner that I'm not at liberty to name) that will identify and tag your vinyl-to-digital rips. The Revolution should be available in mid to late summer for $US150, in black at first and then in a variety of colours. [Crosley]

Re: vLite and Win7
Well, it apparently works.
I did a few minimal component removals, and added one NIC driver I know I need as a test.
The entire process was pretty sluggish on my underpowered test machine.
The entire build, from start to finished ISO, ran just under an hour (with my CPU frequently spiking to 100% and RAM usage up around 68-89%} as I expected it would.
My new ISO image tips the scales at 1.87 Gb vs 2.44Gb (or whatever the 64-bit Microsoft image size is). That's a fairly substantial drop in size IMHO. Especially considering how few changes I made to the default install.
Pretty cool.
P.S. Thanks again f0dder for those components. If I had to download the entire WAIK to get them, I wouldn't be posting this right now.

A federal judge has approved Transocean Ltd.'s agreement with the Justice Department to plead guilty to a misdemeanor charge and pay $400 million in criminal penalties for its role in the 2010 Gulf of Mexico oil spill.
U.S. District Judge Jane Triche Milazzo accepted Transocean's plea and imposed the agreed-upon sentence during a hearing Thursday. The Swiss-based drilling company could have withdrawn from the deal if she had rejected it.
Transocean agreed last month to plead guilty to a misdemeanor charge of violating the Clean Water Act. The company also agreed to pay $1 billion in civil penalties. A different judge will decide whether to accept that part of the settlement.
Transocean owned the rig Deepwater Horizon, which exploded and sank over BP's Macondo well. The accident killed 11 men.

LAS CRUCES, N.M. - The New Mexico State baseball team (27-9, 5-3 WAC) took the home series with San Jose State (23-14, 3-5 WAC) after coming back from a 7-1 deficit to win 20-8, Sunday, April 17 at Presley Askew Field.
NM State was down 7-1 heading into the bottom of the third when the Aggies started its comeback posting three runs in the third before the Aggie offense erupted for a 15-run fourth. The first five batters reached base safely and scored, while 11 of 12 batters scored before two outs were made. There were nine batters who reached base safely with either a walk or by being hit by a pitch, while sophomore designated hitter Zac Fisher tallied a grand slam and senior Ryan Aguayo tallied a three-run homer.
"This is huge for us," head coach Rocky Ward said. "I am proud of our team because sometimes it is hard to come back and play an early game after playing in a doubleheader the day before."
Junior middle infielder Ty Forney led the Aggies again going 4-of-4 at the dish with two runs scored and three RBI, while Aguayo was 4-of-5, crossing the plate four times and marking five RBI. Fisher also finished the day with five RBI and scored twice.
Relief pitcher Riley Bevill took his record to 2-1 on the year after picking up the win. He enter the game in the third inning and didn't give up a single run. Starting pitcher, lefty Trey Ross was in on a no-decision as he worked 2 2/3 innings, striking out three of the 19 batters he faced.
The Aggies showed that they can come from behind again and move to 10-8 when the opposing team scores first.
The Aggies head to Reno, Nev. next weekend to take on the Wolf Pack in a four-game series starting, Friday, April 22 at 7:00 p.m. (MT).

Dancin' in the Streets About Birth Control, Bollywood-Style
Categories: Reproductive Rights
|Dancing birth control pack? Check.
It's a huge victory for women's health, family planning and both sides of the abortion debate -- everyone wants to see fewer of them, and contraception is an excellent way to prevent unplanned pregnancies and, thus, abortion.
And Planned Parenthood is stoked. Check out this slightly absurd video featuring ebullient Bollywood-style carousing from dancers and...a pack of birth control pills. What does it mean? Who knows, exactly. But, like this HHS decision, it is awesome.
