Yes, we had that email exchange already. Good thing the camera was only 42.50. But, evereything I've read it'll be top notch when it gets back. He's quoting 10 week turn around...so that'll put it at the end of Sept. Can't wait.
Vincent, I can highly recommend Paebke in Düsseldorf. Last year I bought on ebay a Cord "in very fine condition".
When it arrived it was a ruin, rust and filth, the self timer was broken, cable release socket gone, shutter only partly working. Against evrybody's advice I decided to have it restored. Paebke did it - 300 - and since then it has produced plenty of excellent negatives.
good luck.
and btw, I found a sticker inside the camera from Paepke! Seems they've had this camera in for repair before.
and to mike who basically "stole" the 3.5f: congrats! ;)
It is an old thread, but for reference purposes: I bought an 2.8C which suffered from a badly affected rear lens. I discovered this much too late, because I had no dark room at the time, nor a scanner, due to relocation. When I found out I could not try to send it back.
In the UK, I was told it was badly scratched and beyond repair. But somehow I did not believe it was, since the glass otherwise seemed immaculate.
So I took a bargain, sent it to John van Stelten (Phocal Point, US) who can polish and recoat it if it concerns shallow marks or fungus.
As it was the rear lens, it did not come cheap at $350, but it has been completely restored. I'll soon have a comparison with my beater 2.8F planar (perfect glass, only the shutter times wheel can be stiff, and deadly sharp).

Kate Gosselin: Lying About Who Watches Her Kids?
Last week, Kate Gosselin was fired from Celebrity Apprentice, and if you opened your windows during the episode, you could hear the chorus of that "witch is dead" song from The Wizard of Oz ringing out across the land.
Bad news for Kate, but hey, at least she can get back to caring for her eight kids now, right? Hey, by the way, who was watching her kids during the three weeks that she was filming? Well, that depends on whom you ask:

Plan, Evaluate, Respond
Emergency preparedness is a basic survival skill. The information on this site will help members of the Yale community develop thoughtful emergency plans regardless of the incident.
This website is a tool to help you plan for emergencies. It takes into account different types of emergencies that may occur, while introducing an overall concept applicable to any situation:
Plan, Evaluate, Respond
The first step in approaching an emergency is to think ahead of time about what might happen. Though planning takes time and work, it pays off by bringing awareness to the choices you may confront in an emergency. By preparing both mentally and logistically, you can increase your confidence and ability to handle a real emergency situation. Being prepared can reduce the fear, anxiety, and losses that disasters often bring.
Having a plan allows you to consider your options in an emergency. Understanding these options will help you respond more consciously and manage your natural instincts of "fight, flight, or freeze." You may only have a few seconds to evaluate the situation, and in that moment you can ask yourself these questions:
- Should we evacuate?
- Where are the exits?
- Should we shelter in place?
- Whom should we call for help?
- How can we help?
- What do we need right now?
Once you have evaluated the situation and understand your options, you are able to choose how to respond to the emergency in the way that maximizes your safety. Remember:
- Do not take unnecessary risk
- Remain as calm as possible
- Always use common sense
- Trust your instincts
Every one of us may someday be the first to respond to an emergency. We hope you will take this responsibility seriously.

WTF?? Where is the deception?
fair point that
WTF?? Where is the deception?
Estes a timeout and field position.
Wow, how stupid are we????
What kind of F*@*@#$* play call was that on a 4th and 3 are you kidding me?
Awful! Why wouldn't you let DG bootleg?
What are we doing?
And that's what you run?!?
Was it a misread?
What the fuck brady
Why Brady? Why?
That hurts bad. We need some special to happen.
Fuck you Borges. Up the middle, absolute moronic play call.
Denard up the middle? What is he the next Bettes? Wow awful
that was the most retarded playcalling I've ever seen.
come on Borges. Jesus
Would have been a good time to see if Denard could throw. Instead we get stupidity and a wasted timeout.
Jesus. Roll Devin out. That hasn't been stopped ever. Just awful coaching there. Awful.
You. Weird play calling.
Up the middle against Hankins and Zach Boren with our great interior offensive line? What could possibly go wrong?
They haven't stopped the read all day and you run that shit! Would have been the perfect time to pass out of the read with Denard!
Worst play call in history of the world.
I really hope this does not turn into last year's game against MSU.
That could very well cost us the game, the way our defense is playing.
What a fucking momentum swing.
Great play Roh and Ryan
borges, i haz sads now :(
comon D
We just wasted a timeout, made the two worst offensive play calls of the season and gave up great field position. Disappointed would be an understatement.
That was a small-time play. You dont go for it on 4th and 3 on your side of the field when you're leading the damn game. Only time you consider it is if you're freaking ball state or something.
Alright, hold em to a field goal.
The squib kick and the stupid 4th down call have handed them 6 points. The coaches are screwing it up!
Good change-of-possesion D.
Gave them 3 points.
Going for it wasn't terrible. Risky and aggressive, but not terrible. The play call sucked though.
We are lucky it only cost us 3.
Agree - I'm okay going for it, but the play call was terrible and so was wasting a timeout.
Yeah, I'm not. This isn't Dantonio ball. Stop wasting downs running Rawls. Run Denard.
Good stop. They ran the QB up the middle too. The defense saved us again. Come Borges. We have to score.
Lets see what horrible play calls are in store for us now......
We gifted them 3 pts and the lead. If we lose... It better not be by 1-3 pts
I'm curious to see how that call is going to bite us. I agree with going for it but it had to be DG on the bootleg with a run/pass option.
We find out if the coaches are choking today.
I'm glad this isn't boring 3 yardas and a cloud of dust, but there have been two offensive play calls that I wonder about. The first half long pass, backed up inside the 20, for an incomplete helped allow Ohio a short field. The fourth down call at midfield. That was doa. The timeout gave OSU time to prepare, then with the play call itself was telegraphed with the lineup.
......HAS to EXECUTE
Lets do some trickeration with Devin and Denard.
This can never be unseen. What a bunch of sicko cheaters, disgusting: http://gif.mocksession.com/2012/11/grabban/
idiot idiot
WRF Jones????
Wow! Get Mike Jones outta there.

Series: The Flying Cestmir
aka: Letajici Cestmir
The Flying Cestmir (the original Czech title is Létající Čestmír and it was translated in German as Der Fliegende Ferdinand) is a Czech TV fantasy/sci-fi series for children written by Milo Macourek (script) and directed by Václav Vorlíček from 1983. The series has six episodes. Later, a book based on the series was written by Milo Macourek and Petr Markov.It's about the Cloudcuckoolander school boy Cestmir who one day is magically transported to a planet of magical flowers but nobody believes him. However, he brought two magical flowers back. Much Hilarity Ensues. And then, other people are drawn to the flower planet - and the city's barber wants to get said flowers for his own advantage...
- Bald of Evil: The barber is the villain of the story. He's bald and wears a moustache.
- Cassandra Truth: Even more so when he appears as his father to tell off the barber that he stole the flower pots. At this time all the people healed by the barber state that they'd still support him even if the accusation was true.
- Children Are Innocent: The professor explicitly says so. Note however, that the barber's son is pretty much an asshole despite being a kid, and the professor is a good guy despite being old. It's really more about whether you are "a child at heart".
- Cloudcuckoolander: Cestmir, the protagonist. After reading a pseudoscientific article about telekinesis, he thinks it's really possible in our world. Of course, most people wouldn't believe in magical flowers either...
- Cool Teacher: Philip, who falls in love with the protagonist's big sister. He has a friendly relationship with his pupils and he helps the trio of our heroes in their fight against the villain.
- The Cuckoolander Was Right: The one time Cestmír tells a story he didn't make up, nobody believes him.
- Cyborg: The institute where David's father works, which aims for the improvement of man, has invented among other things a helm which improves the olfactory sense and a more practical tool for improving hearing.
- The Ditz: The barber's son. In one scene he fails to add two one-digit numbers! (Alternate Character Interpretation: He sees homework as beneath his dignity.)
- Dub Name Change: Cestmir's name was changedd to Ferdinand in the German version. There were other changes in the names as well.
- Fountain of Youth: One of the flowers causes people to de-age. The old professor uses it, but apparently nobody else.
- Flight: Done by one of the two flowers Cestmir gets, plus it is in the very title — you can fly after smelling the magical flower.
- Generation Xerox: Everyone tells Cestmir that he's "just like his father". Consequently, when the one flower turns him into an adult, he's played by his father's actor. Despite the fact that there isn't really much similarity.
- Go Among Mad People: The father is mistaken for crazy, because his son sometimes poses as him — in his adult form, caused by the magical flower, he looks like his father. Cestmir is a weird boy as it is, and with his pre-teen behaviour, he can't succefully pass for a sane adult.
- Green Rocks: The meteorite which is found by Cestmír and later, his teacher Philip. It glows blue, and sometimes changes its size; when people come too close to it, they're sucked into it and go to the planet of the magical flowers.
- Healing Hands: One of the magical flowers can heal any disease, including baldness. The barber uses to become a famous healer. At the end, the city's hospital is empty.
- Jerk Ass: The barber and his son. They are arrogant, insufferable and full of themselves.
- Magical Land: The planet of the magical flowers.
- Overnight Age-Up: One flower the protagonist gets can do that for a few hours. Which he and his allies use a few times.
- Plant People: The flowers in the other world can speak, and apparently humans can communicate with them.
- Psychokinesis: Cestmir thinks he can obtain this ability after reading an article about a fakir. Later, he tries using it to open the safe where the stolen flowers are.
- Screw the Rules, I Have Money!: The barber, Mr Blecha, when he gains lots of money from the magical plants.
- Small Name, Big Ego: The barber's son. He wants to be called "grand vizier" by the other kids and throws a temper when they won't.
- Super Intelligence: One flower boosts one's intelligence and mental abilities. It gives you all kinds of sklills, like speaking Japanese.
- Super Senses: The barber's wife uses it to learn all kinds of interesting gossip, which she puts into the newspaper.
- Super Strength: One flower plant causes extraordinary strength and speed. The barber and his son once use it to win a tennis match (6:0, 6:0, 6:0, unsurprisingly).
- Tempting Fate: At the end, the barber has lost the flowers, though he has the meteorite. When the boys mock him, he shows them the stone... which flies away into space, never to return.
- Two Guys and a Girl: The group of friends consist of protagonist Cestmir and his great friends David and Barbora.
- Urban Fantasy: The story is set in a small Czech town in the 1980s. The characters can be transported to a fantastic plannet of plants and they gain magical flowers that boost your abilities and give you amazing super powers.
- Villain with Good Publicity: The barber who wants to use the flowers to make money and get famous. He's popular since he can cure people's maladies easily.
- Year Inside, Hour Outside: Philip spends almost one year there, but on Earth only a few minutes passed when he gets back.

Additional Information
About Fundación ParaguayaFundación Paraguaya is a financially self-sustaining social enterprise that promotes entrepreneurship in urban and rural areas through microfinance, education programs, and more. Its focus on agriculture has helped many farmers boost their crop yields. And a number of other borrowers have taken out loans to start and grow social businesses that have helped deliver eyeglasses, medicines and other helpful services in their local communities.
This is a Group Loan
In a group loan, each member of the group receives an individual loan but is part of a larger group of individuals. The group is there to provide support to the members and to provide a system of peer pressure, but groups may or may not be formally bound by a group guarantee. In cases where there is a group guarantee, members of the group are responsible for paying back the loans of their fellow group members in the case of delinquency or default.
Kiva's Field Partners typically feature one borrower from a group. The loan description, sector, and other attributes for a group loan profile are determined by the featured borrower's loan. The other members of the group are not required to use their loans for the same purpose.

CABE slates St Katharine Dock scheme for a fourth time
CABE has slated the latest redesign of Gaunt Francis Architects' (GFA) St Katharine Dock's scheme in East London
Once again the scheme has failed to win the backing of the design review body, which said that, while 'broadly supportive of the overall aims of the proposal', it had not changed its views of the scheme, despite additional information being provided.
'We are not yet convinced that the overall public realm strategy has been resolved. Overall, in keeping with the robust character of the dock itself, we would suggest that a simpler approach is taken.'
It is the fourth negative review the £120 million scheme has received. In March 2006, the original proposal was labelled 'muddled' and a substantial redesign was carried out. The scheme's landmark 17-storey elliptical tower was remodelled after CABE labelled elements 'awkward and unstable'.

1. Re: DPS Cert SAN requestSylvain Duloutre-Oracle Aug 20, 2013 11:31 AM (in response to pgrFrank)
It might be possible to do that with Java 7 as Java 7's keytool has an option to include a Subject Alternative Name (-ext) because dps cert admin commands use keytool under the hood. However, this would not be officially supported.
Some CA might also support adding SAN in the cert even if it was not explicitely present in the cert request.
My 2 cents
2. Re: DPS Cert SAN requestpgrFrank Aug 21, 2013 11:27 AM (in response to Sylvain Duloutre-Oracle)
We decided to add the subject alternative names from the CA to the cert requests from the proxy.

Have you ever had one of those moments? You could call it coincidence but you know better. Last month at church a sweet sister got up during a testimony meeting. One of the ways she expresses herself and her faith is through song. She sang a beautiful old gospel hymn that I had not heard before called His Eye is on the Sparrow. It was beautiful and touching. I went home that afternoon and was looking through some blogs in my reader and came across this post over at Red [Continue Reading…]

"We can very easily see that although only 5% of hospital stays are among patients who have no insurance, 19% of the people who leave against medical advice are uninsured," she said. "To me, that's the biggest finding here, and we wanted to draw attention to that."
"You can imagine the scenario," she added. "Once people start feeling better, they want to leave right away. And if someone is responsible financially for their [own] hospital stay, they're going to have a much different threshold for wanting to stick around, because they know everything that happens to them in the hospital they will be financially responsible for [themselves]."
Medicare and Medicaid Patients
Patients covered by Medicaid made up 20% of the inpatient stays but accounted for 31% of those who left against medical advice. Patients covered by Medicare made up 40% of the inpatient stays but only 29% of those who left against medical advice. And patients who had private insurance coverage made up 32% of the inpatient stays, but accounted for only 16% of those who left against medical advice.
According to published research, reasons other than fear of costs prompting patients to leave the hospital before they are ready for discharge include lack of home conveniences or lack of hospital room privacy or other amenities. Additionally, they may think they don't need to be in the hospital or don't want to wait for a physician to complete discharge orders.
An estimated 1% to 2% of all hospital admissions are said to leave against medical advice, although people with substance abuse history and who are younger are more likely to do so.

Watch out for turtles crossingMay 06,2013
The Vermont Fish and Wildlife Department is reminding drivers that reptiles and amphibians are on the move this time of year.
The agency said amphibians migrate by the thousands each spring looking for breeding pools. They can frequently cross roads contributing to high rates of mortality among some species.
The Fish and Wildlife Department has been working to identify stretches of road where migrations take place and is working with the state Agency of Transportation to include culverts and wildlife barriers in road construction plans.
Most amphibian crossings take place on several rainy spring nights. Steve Parren, the departments wildlife diversity program director, said many frogs and salamanders are already well into their breeding season.
He said by late May turtles will start crossing roads to build nests in sandy embankments.MORE IN Vermont News

Ready to solve some of the most complex software challenges? Our developers and software engineers work across multiple operating systems and a broad range of platforms to enable cutting-edge features and functions for everything from smartphones, tablets, and Ultrabooks™ to smart TVs, cloud computing, and other top-secret new products we have up our sleeve.
At Intel, you can use your software skills to change the way people think about computing. You'll get your hands on new technology years before the general public. And you'll get to work with some of the smartest people in the business. So, if you consider yourself a coding genius and want to learn, grow, achieve, and make the world a better place, Intel has opportunities in a variety of software development areas, including: applications, middleware, driver, firmware (BIOS, MicroCode, etc.), graphics and media, OS-kernel, security, silicon co-design, software services, developer tools, customer enabling, and web.
Just like in traditional software companies, Intel software engineers work as part of a larger project development team to write, edit, and debug new software. But instead of being tied to a single operating system or hardware platform, our teams get to work across the software ecosystem. They also play a role in driving hardware and software integration. In fact, our engineers help influence the next generation leading hardware so our software solutions run even better.
We also need developers to help put together developer tools, including APIs, programming tools, compilers, libraries, performance analysis tools, software messaging infrastructure, and documentation to help third-party developers create exciting applications for our different platforms. You may even get the chance to work directly with third-party developers or other companies providing architectural advice and consultation, as well as best practice guidance for Intel technologies.
Software—Intel's Best-Kept Secret?
Intel is more than a silicon company. In fact, we're one of the largest and most influential software companies in the world. We're committed to enabling great computing experiences and that demands the ideal interaction between hardware and software. To help make that happen, we've focused on working internally and by helping the external developer community deliver an Intel—optimized software stack for everything from smartphones to the cloud and more!
In-vehicle Infotainment, Smart TVs and More
The Open Source Technology Center at Intel is a key supporter and member of the MeeGo* Community. MeeGo's common core supports development for a variety of devices from netbooks, handsets, in-vehicle infotainment, Smart TVs, and media phones.
Intel® Software Development Products
When it comes to third-party software solutions, we want to help developers rock their code on Intel® architecture. That's why we deliver powerful developer tools for any Intel platform, serial to manycore. For everything from compilers and performance libraries to error-checking and profiling tools, we help developers succeed at every step.
Successful Intel developers and software engineers typically have a bachelors in Computer Science, Computer Engineering or Electrical Engineering. Depending on your technical area of expertise, some positions require a masters or PhD, as well as developing experience. We look for individuals with a clear understanding of software development lifecycle methodologies and practices, software security practices, WRT coding, agile programming, and object-oriented design and analysis.
As an Intel developer or software engineer, you'll need to know how to knock out tight code, work effectively with other incredibly smart people, and tackle some of the toughest software problems. We want people who have the determination to see their ideas brought to life and then the pride of authorship to brag about their achievements through blogs, whitepapers, and forums. We value experience with the latest computer languages and extensive knowledge of the software development process from initiation to final launch. And we want people who love working with the latest technologies and appreciate all kinds of device applications from tablets and in-car infotainment to desktops, servers, and beyond.
Select View Development/Software Jobs to see all the opportunities we have in Software. Within the developer/software engineering role we typically have opportunities for interns and college graduates, as well as individuals with related work experience.
I delivered a highly valued internal software package as an intern last summer. My manager then offered me a full-time position to come back! ― Michael, Software Engineer, Hillsboro, OR, USA
I work on integrating AppUp with MeeGo*—be it tablets, netbooks, or the next form factor that comes in. I'm also the group's Linux* referent. ― Sergio, Sr. Software Engineer, Cordoba, Argentina
What makes me want to come to work every day? The satisfaction of writing code from scratch that will eventually be used by hundreds of people. ― Richard, Program Manager, Austin, TX, USA

Are there any other techniques for limiting a pallet other than gamut masks?
I wish to compare various methods of restricting colours in a painting for my dissertation but im struggling to find other methods to do so.
I know old masters used to limit there pallets for various reasons but they could pretty much mix any colour out of the pigments they did have anyway, which isn't really the same as gamut masking, or really any use to me as it hasn't got the same effect so I would not be able to compare the two.
any idea's?

With the high school football season in full swing, I decided to revisit a piece of local history that had been completely unknown to me until earlier this year.
Fast-pitch softball games were once played at Harmon Field, attracting players from throughout the area, an enthusiastic fan base and plenty of publicity in the local newspaper. Local business sponsors were part of the lively competition.
Turns out that baseball also was played there and the softball games didnt stop just because the high school football season began even though the official softball season did end.
Ron Whisler, who played fast-pitch softball in town for many years, competing against and playing with some of the very best around, recalls the interest and excitement of those times.
Those were good years I miss it, Ron said during a recent conversation.
Ron recalled that the softball and baseball fields were east of the football field. The visitors bleachers which were much smaller at the time were in the outfield and many times an outfielder had to chase a ball under the bleachers. There was no home run fence, but the bleachers might as well have been, because the time the ball was recovered from its hiding place all but the very slowest of runners would have safely circled the bases.
Ron, who regularly played third base a real hot corner in fast pitch soft ball remembers that the shortstop actually played on the cinder track used by the high school track team. While the third baseman sometimes had to deal with the cinders, he was more concerned with balancing the effort to protect against bunts and protect himself against hard hit balls down the line. When they were hit at you, they were hit like shots. You knocked down more than you caught.
The makeshift condition of the field didnt stop the fans from filling the temporary bleachers that were erected near what is now the parking lot between the football stadium and Stamm Elementary School.
Ron recalls that there were three levels of fast pitch softball in town at the time: A, AA and AAA.
One of the reasons for such success at the time was young guys had a chance to develop, he said.
His greatest memories included seeing players that he called softball legends. Rip Riley, Al Rohr, Tony Porczak and R.B. Myers were among those he mentioned. Longtime softball players will remember those names and many others. A number of the best from the Fremont leagues were recruited to play with well-known teams on a regional or national level.
The Harmon Field baseball and softball games came to end in the late 1940s with action moving to Lutz School and Rodger Young Park.
Roy Wilhelm started a 40-year career at The News-Messenger in 1965, as a reporter. Now retired, he is writing about the history of Sandusky County businesses.

Firefighters have a lot of tools at their disposal, but one of their most important supplies is the clothing they wear when battling flames.
"It protects us from the extreme heat inside a house fire," said Brandon Cocke, chief of the Big Island Volunteer Fire Department.
The insulated jackets and pants are known as "turnout gear."
The National Fire Protection Association recommends the garments be replaced every ten years.
Cocke says most of his department's gear has already expired.
"In May of 2012, this gear according to the NFPA should have been taken out of service," explained Cocke, pointing to a label on one of his jackets.
The material on some items is frayed and coming apart.
"As the chief it makes me wonder if my guys are really safe," Cocke said.
The need is not unique to Big Island. All 12 of Bedford County's volunteer agencies need new clothing and much more.
At least seven fire trucks in the county are more than 20 years old. Replacing just one will cost around $500,000.
"We can't spend half a million dollars on a fire truck, when there are other more pressing needs," said Ryan Burnette, a lieutenant with the Forest Volunteer Fire Department.
For the last ten years, the Bedford County Board of Supervisors has given each volunteer fire company $34,600.
Volunteers say that amount barely covers routine expenses, like fuel.
"Upkeep and maintenance has increased," said Eric Shell, chief of the Hardy Volunteer Fire Department. "The cost of every aspect of fire fighting has increased, but our funding has stayed the same."
To complicate matters, Bedford's firefighters say they're now battling a new money problem.
Starting in July the county plans to give each fire company a flat payment of $25,000 annually, plus $100 for every call they answer.
Volunteers say the change will make planning ahead impossible.
"You can't budget a certain amount of money when you don't know whether that funding is going to be there," said Burnette.
To make up for shortfalls, fire fighters are trying to get money from other sources.
They've applied for grants to replace some equipment, like the air tanks firefighters use to breathe.
Individual departments are holding fundraisers to pay for basic needs, but people aren't giving as much as they did even a few years ago.
If they don't get more funding from the county, some firefighters worry their ability to adequately protect the community will be effected.
"We'll still answer the call, it just may a different way than what we're accustomed to or what we've been trained to do," said Cocke.

Politics Counts
Foreign Policy
Just remember the vast majority of folks working in corporate america don't get the massive bonuses or stock options or get to pontificate on the need for "govt" subsidizes" or special treatment. If anything the CEOs can whine all they want for big govt, most of their employers will vote against crony capitalism everytime. As for Goldman Sachs..the big banks need a strong dose of the free market...they simply can't survive given their management if they were forced to live in a world of sound money, free markets, limited govt and peace. In other words...the GOP should not be in bed with Goldman and big business that exist based on crony capitalism.
If "big business" were willing to stand on its own in a free and open market, that would be OK. What is not OK is the unholy alliances between big business and big government that create barriers to competition, enables gross inefficiencies and insulates big business managers from the discipline of the marketplace. Too big to fail is the extreme example of the dysfunctional consequences of a rigged marketplace.
Against higher academic standards? Really Johnny boy? Do you have kids in school? I do and this so called "common core" replaces tried and true math drill methods with "cut and past" fuzzy math. Common core replaces a strong civics education in the DOI and Bill of Rights to replace with "diversity and multiculturalism".
If you want you kids to not be able to solve simply rate problems (Algerbra) they by all means be for common core. And honestly, why should we subsidize any business? What 'green subsidizes" that makes no sense. You sound like the real estate agent down the street. "We need to promote home ownership" he always said. In truth the "promotion" only increased prices, put more people in more debt they could not pay and force both spouses to work to maintain the same standard of living I had in the 70's growing up when My Dad worked full time and my Mom part time.
Sorry no one should get a free ride in the free market.
As far as some background on this, Common Core was a bipartisan effort to enhance state standards for academic achievement.
Jack Markell, D-Delaware, a second-term governor, has noted that opponents mistakenly equate a coalition from across the nation with a federal government initiative.
Mr. Markell co-chaired a National Governors Association's Common Core panel with Republican Sonny Perdue of Georgia, who left office in 2011. Perdue claimed Common Core was a pushback against George W. Bush's federal since Bush signed the No Child Left Behind law, a national education act.
Perdue further claimed it was "embarrassing" for governors of both parties that Congress and the White House pushed higher standards before state leaders.
have been in big business for many years. That's why Obama goes to New York to fund raise. It's also why Holder has not charged anyone in the big bank for the housing crash. Polis, Steyer, Soros, Imelt all have Obama by the nose so they will keep giving him money.
The schism in the GOP now is between not just the populist Tea Party little guy who really believes in a genuine free market and the GOP establishment, but also against the Tea Party funders and higher-ups who never expected the street-level populism of their followers to take on an actual life of its own.
Nowhere is this more evident than over the issue of immigration: rank-and-file Tea Partiers are demanding adherence to the rule of law and that the interests of American citizens to be put first, much to the chagrin of those who organized the Tea Party as a leverage and wedge to futher the interests of big business.
"What would happen if Big Business decided to change sides?"
Big Business political support has been split 50/50 between Republicans and Democrats for decades. They've always contributed to whichever candidate was willing to do favors for them, regardless of party identification.
So is the question "What would happen to the Republican Party if Big Business gave 100% of its financial support to the Democrats?" Either the Republican Party would survive (and thrive) on libertarian populism – and Big Business would have to compete in the marketplace vs. Washington, DC – or the United States would become a fully fascist corporate dystopia.
I'll take my chances on libertarian populism.
We know what will happen because it happened in the Virginia Governor's race last year. The Democrat got nearly 100% of the business contributions. He won easily.
Have you actually read the Obama large campaign donor list? Big business money has already moved into the Democrat's pockets.
Big Business has been playing both Democrats and Republicans for decades. They donate lots of time and sometimes even take jobs in government for both parties. Both parties have become good at getting government to put up barriers to new competitors coming into the market for their business friends. I hope the Republicans do stop crony capitalism and I also hope the Democrats support them. We can always hope right?
Yeah I am quite sure the Chamber will fulfill its self imposed mandates by having a BBQ and making s'mores with Elizabeth Warren.
Big business has been the downfall of the GOP. Wall Street over Main Street. That would be the military, healthcare, higher education (there is no bigger business than higher education), and you name it K Street industrial complexes.
Obama gets fundraising money from big business types (of which there are many) who want to stay out of jail. The DoJ will prosecute any CEO that does not contribute to Obama.
The Koch Bros. are a great example of the Tea Party/Libertarian business model. They represent limited govt, free markets, personal liberty, and fiscal responsibility. These are moderate issues according to the polls. Contrary to another comment, the Tea Party has never been anything but grassroots.
News Flash: The GOP Big Business types are the far right wing of the GOP not the Tea party.
@Andrew P - Terry McAuliffe won the Virginia Gov. race with 48% of the vote. Ken Cuccinelli, a very conservative Big Business type, got 45% of the vote. McAuliffe is not faring well with the less than 50% vote. The GOP controls both houses.
Big Business and Big Government are natural allies. Big business uses its money, influence, etc. to get Big Government to tip the scales in its favor. Both "big's" inherently hate small business--or at the least don't care about it. Small business doesn't pay the vig, is hard to control, etc.
So--to the extent the GOP becomes the conservative party as opposed to Left Lite, Big business will move to the Dems.
so be it.
"Big Business is for immigration reform....exactly". Want to explain WHY to a pancake breakfast in Ft Wayne?
Corporate agendas have become so blatantly anti-worker that you no longer even try to hide the fact that you want to flood the labor pool in order to drive down wages & pay less. The only group that wants a border free US & Mexico more than La Raza is Wall Street money men.
The ideological contradiction of better wages and millions more immigrants is a split that the Left has coming in the very near future. But in their own way, the right is already on it.
Amnesty WILL BE the end of the Republican party, have no doubts whatsoever!
Whatever happened to "Good jobs at good wages" rhetoric of the Democrat party? I guess they've gotten past that.
BOTH parties are now lining up against the best interests of the American people. SOMETHING has to fill that void. Hopefully it's peaceful revolt at the ballot box. Hopefully...
Why didn't Feheery just say this: I make lots of money as a lobbyist. I have big corporate clients. They pay me to 1) influence Congress to give them favorable subsidies, taxes and regulations and 2) influence Congress NOT to pass bills that would potentially hurt them. In other words, what I do is compete in the political marketplace to insulate my clients from competition in the actual, productive marketplace. It's cheaper for them to pay me A LOT than to deal with pesky competition in the actual marketplace. If Republicans start supporting competitive markets and business generally -- small, big, whatever so long as it's via genuine competition-- instead of the big business greasing the pockets of politicians and lobbyists, all those big companies are going to stop paying me so much money. And I like my money. And my influence. And my fancy DC parties. So, I really want DC to stay the way it is.
Barf, Feheery. Barf.
What would really be great would be a federal government small enough that business, large or small, did not feel obliged to pay homage or protection money to.
Having Big Business even more explicitly and openly on the side of the Democrats would be the best thing that could happen to the Republican party. The Republicans lost in 2012 not because everyone was happy with Obama, but because the Democrats were able to paint Romney as the agent of plutocracy, with some justice. The Republicans do not need money to win elections, they need votes. A more populist GOP would be much better off.
The intellectual dishonesty of liberals is truly shocking. Their strategy - which sadly works with a great deal of their constituency - is to ascribe absurdly exaggerated, distorted, or outright untrue motives and positions to conservatives, then argue against those motives and positions as if they were genuine - thus making themselves out to be the heroes of the "little people" they are "trying to protect." If a conservative wants to save the lives of unborn children, then he hates women. If he disagrees with the Common Core as the proper means of improving public education, then he is trying to prevent poor children from receiving a good education. If he wants to move aggressively to stop rampant federal spending, then he is trying to destroy the government. If he wants to end crony capitalism, then he hates big business - etc., etc., etc. What's even more sad is that this strategy continues to succeed amongst a constituency that like to think of themselves as the smart ones on the block.
I wonder how well the GOP would do with out the millions and millions of votes provided by the Main Street minions big business seems to think can be bought with money? They weren't bought in 2012 and they can't be bought for Democrats either.
This is the most remarkably tone-deaf establishment piece in years. What would happen if the Chamber of Commerce switched sides? You and your cronies already have, nitwit, and long ago. The difference would be that we would not have dirty Chamber money in Republican primaries - it would just be Dems bloodying each other to death in the fight for table scraps from the beloved overlords.
What a fool, and he puts it in print.
Choose limited federal government.
Stop making millionaires out of our politicians and lobbyists.
Stop increasing the power of connected corporations.
Choose limited federal government.
Stop making millionaires out of our politicians and lobbyists.
Stop increasing the power of connected corporations.
Feehery is the a walking example of what's wrong with the GOP. He has no problem with taxpayer bailouts, subsidies, giveaways, earmarks and cronyism. In fact, he defends them so he can benefit his client's and get rich off the backs of the average American.
I find the ignorance of the Tea Party at new heights each day. It is not a party, it is a collection of individuals that have said enough. The "enough" applies to corporate welfare the same as it does to an over-reaching Federal government. Boy do we need to strip the Federal government of power, with the lack of money lobbyist will have to find new careers and the corporations will have to compete on their own merits. Oh and big business sits on the fence. By nature the money and influence will move to those in power whomever is in charge.
That article is incredibly out of date. The Democrats jumped in bed with business back in the 90s. It's been wild orgiastic sex ever since. I think big business primarily gives money to Republicans at this point to keep the Democrats honest and because Republican pols are stupid enough to do everything they are told even when it leads directly to them losing office. Which by the way can't happen soon enough for me.
Go ask Paul Ryan how much good all that business money did for him. He lost to a guy spending peanuts. Try again, losers.
Eric Cantor, rather, not Paul Ryan
Proof that Big Business doesn't care about the Constitution, free markets, or limited government -- it's pretty much aligned with the Democratic Party already.
A defense of crony capitalism? This is satire, right?
"What would happen if Big Business decided to change sides?"
Then they'd be supporting libertarian free marketers. That's because right now the side Big Business supports is the Incumbent party. (The Republican and Democrat denominators of the one party being cosmetics and marketing.)
Let's see, which side would they be on if GE, Goldman Sachs, Microsoft, Google, ... etc., etc., etc switched sides?
If your willing to threaten a move into Chuck Schumer's pocket if you don't get your way then we - and you - have already lost each other. That and GFY.
Just think of what would happen in a big corporation like, say GE or GM supported Democrats! Or Microsoft or Apple! Or Dreamworks or Comcast!
Kind of amazing how you just come right out and admit that you support crony capitalism. Kudos for your candor and all, although it would've been nice of you to mention that your client list includes Immigration Voice, the Bill Gates (read: Common Core) funded Strong American Schools and, get this, US Chamber of Commerce.
I get that crony capitalism -- better known as corporatism or Fascism -- is good for your business, but for small to medium sized business, not so much, and it's antithetical to the principles upon which our nation was founded.
You already support the Democrat Part. Stop acting like you care about free markets.
Ok, lets try this. Most for the "crony capitalism" is the "too big to fail" for huge bailouts, or subsidies, or government no-bid contracts.
IF this ends, you wont; donate to GOP interests? So IF we stop paying BILLIONS we'll stop getting MILLIONS in return... and you think this is persuasive?
Here, give me $100,000 a month... in return I'll give $100 wherever you want, your call.
No deal? SO why should we panic that the SAME RATIO deal might end if we don't support more crony capitalism graft, corruption, bribery, and kickbacks?
Either it's a good deal, and I can expect my monthly $100,000 check from you in return for my $100 donation; or it's a crap deal... and maybe you can see why this isn't something fiscal conservatives think we'd want MORE of.
Whichever way you choose is fine with me... but I would like the monthly check.
Feehery seems to think that the typical American suffers from a lack of imagination as to how to deal with fascists. It is a shame he slept through the part of history class where they dealt with the entirety of the 20th century.
By all means, he and his ilk can run on a crony capitalism platform. They might even win for a while. But when the reckoning comes history has shown it will not likely be at the ballot box. Even in healthy societies the ruling class doesn't eschew rigging the game because of their inherent morality, the elites rarely have any such compunctions. They avoid it out of a sense of self-preservation for fear of what will happen if they do not.
What Feehery is signalling is that our elites are not properly cowed. That can be rectified. I do not expect that they will find the experience much to their liking. But then that is the point of the exercise, is it not? Given the fact that millions from both ends of the political spectrum just took to the streets to make that point with the OWS and Tea Party movements you would think they would take the hint. Alas, they are nothing if not slow learners.
Look, this guy was for Charlie Crist and Arlen Specter. Give him the respect he deserves.
The stupid it burns. Even at the WSJ.
Fascism is on the rise. The unholy coupling of govt and business, with terror instilled by an increasingly militarized regulatory state. This man is not a patriot, but a slime ball.
I'm for pushing a business tax break for small and mid-sized business to be paid for by a tax increase on big business
The GOP should kick big business to the curb. I'd love to see the Republican Party completely break with big business and denounce them as the liberal welfare queens that they are. Then, the public will rally behind the GOP and we'll finally get an effective Republican Party that advances the cause of liberty and limited Constitutional government, not the cause of some Wall Street fat cats who want a handout from the feds and certainly not the cause of the lobbyist crooks. If big business went over to the Democrats and left the GOP as a libertarian populist party, then the GOP would win every national election and the Democrats would lose every national election. That would be fine by me.
So if Republicans don't like big business, why then do they choose to continually pass legislation favoring them? Hit them in their wallet by raising their taxes. The current US corp tax is 39%. However, after deductions, the average effective US corp tax rate is only 13%.
So how come the alleged anti-tax party won't do anything against those who don't pay their fair share? Oh, right, I forgot, dogma.
This Lobbyist the wrote his article is only worried about his own job! What's wrong with striving to follow our Constitution instead of big business corruption in our federal government...the brilliant Founders warned us about this!
Samuel Adams said: "Neither the wisest constitution nor the wisest laws will secure the liberty and happiness of a people whose manners are universally corrupt. He therefore is the truest friend of the liberty of his country who tries most to promote its virtue."
