It's not going to happen. Clinton stated quite clearly that she has no interest in the possibility.
"Obama is thinking about dropping Vice President Joe Biden from the ticket in 2012"
What on earth makes him think that he's running? The DNC will support Hillary over Uncle Bo Bo in a second.
Say it isn't so, Joe . . .. Joe? Jooooooe . . . .
"O" must have been breakin' himself off a piece of dat! Bubba gets to watch though.
Watch for Hillary to leave the State Dept. and run against Obama.
The dirty little secret is that Mrs. Clinton is allowing Uncle Barrack to pave the way for a Hillary 2012 presidential bid.
He misunderstood, Biden is trading Clinton for Obama at the top of the ticket.
Maybe to stop her from running against Obama in 2012 for the Democratic ticket?
Obama/Oprah 2012
(or vice versa. . .)
If Clinton runs, there is no way Obama is going to win the Presidency. FIrst Clinton is highly likely to beat him in the primary--he can't use her lack of foreign policy experience as an argument anymore. Secondly, if he miraculously won the primary, there is no way he can come out of the primary unscathed enough to win the election.
I thought that Hiliary was silly to give up her Senate seat to become Secretary of State. I think that she would be even more silly to give up being Secretary of State to be the VP. She will be too old to be President in 2016, and she might as well retire, become an elder statesperson, and enjoy retirement. The only thing it would do is possibly provide Obama with some extra votes in 2012, which he may need as he is no longer very popular.
Are there readers out there silly enough to believe Obama's, or his handlers, ever had any intention of him running a second time????
It's not his style to stick around to have his performance measured. His life time benefits don't change. He can't be first Black president twice. Would you want to stick around to clean up his chaos? He'd get a kick out of watching conservatives do their "deer in the headlights" imitation again as they spluttered ... but he cheated ... we were supposed to beat him fair and square ... which they can't do if he doesn't run.
And best of all ... imagine this. "Well I'd love to stick around, but the new UN global government [lots of money and no responsibilities] needs its first president (my chance to be G. Washington too).
So here ya go Hil ... (handing her the mop to his messes) ... I got America back on track, now don't let us down. See ya all!
And your reasons for saying "of course he wants to run twice" are ... what?????
More likely that Obama won't run for a second term and Hilary becomes the Democratic candidate and will win.
Impossible to make legit predictions this early in the game. Let's see how the rest of his first term goes, and if republicans and democrats find a way to work across party lines. Everything hinges on the economy. I don't see Obama as the type that would switch VPs though. Clinton has generally been regarded as an effective secretary of state, especially alongside Bill with the Clinton Global Initiative.
Finally...a Democratic ticket with balls.
I thought Joe Bite-Me was Obama's insurance policy against a Republican assassination attempt. Make Hillary the VP and the Democrats will start shooting at him.
Changing one socialist ego-maniac for another isn't progress. But nothing Obama does is progress. We've elected the "black" President, so now we'll need to elect the "female" President. Nevermind that neither of them has any clue how to fix the economy, and is interested only in their own immortality in the history books.
One thing it would accomplish is to reduce expenditures for room deodorant at the State Department
I think Obama is nervous Hillary will win the democratic primary for president in 2012 - which would have been impossible to predict even 6 months ago - and by floating her to the VP spot he doesn't have to worry about a head on competitor in the election on the Democratic side. She might be the only one he could lose to in his own party. Given his approval ratings are not good - if the economy doesn't approve the entire country is going to be looking for a replacement with experience instead of a party organizer who flamboyantly vacations every other month despite the tough economy.
Let the Clinton(s) fade into the sunset and enjoy their retirement.
It was the Clinton(s)Gore transnationalist too big to fail:failed financial banking cabal and cartel that got us into this global financial meltdown.
Clonton(s)Gore are has beens who were.
Bad message management? Name one thing this White House has done right? It is the most ideologically driven, incompetent administration in history.
Many Secretaries of State have had a greater impact than Vice Presidents. Who's to say this would be a "dumping" of Biden, not a promotion?
Wow!! Really??? That's Eath-shattering news!!...NOT!! VP-Gate? LOL
Big effn deal.. Maybe he can pick a Kenyan to run with him..he's Kenyan remember? God RWERS are morons.
Getting rid of the doofus Biden does not address the primary problem with the Obama Administration - The dogmatically socialist yet economically ignorant, geo-politically clueless buffoon Obama himself.
This is called simultaneous resume padding.
Cincinnatus - Beck University Summa Cum-Loudly Graduate
Facts not needed...just follow Uncle Beck!!
Well, for one thing, dumping Biden would rid the potitical scene of a babbling, buffoonish and totally embarrassing clown!
Republicans wil love to have Mrs Clinton on ticket. Joe Biden doesnt bring any weight or vote to ticket .... Hillary brings weight and deflect votes.

Really? So Reps can replace him with scholars like Odonell, Angle, Palin & Rand Paul?
If something were going to come out that would force Obama to leave office, then it would make sense to have position Clinton in the VP role.
Obama running with Hillary would insure that she would not run against him. I believe she would have made a better more decisive president with Bill as her supporting spouse. Unfortunately Americans voted by race and gender, Hillary was always the more qualified candidate. I think she should run for president and get the Clintons back in the white house, they solved the last huge republican made mess they can solve this one too. Run Hillary Run!
A key point is being missed here. Biden would have to be confirmed by most probably a Republican controled Senate in order to become Secratary of State. He is no shoe-in for confirmation. Remember, Biden, as a Senator, opposed the surge, voted to cut funding to the troops, and floated a ridiculous idea of carving up Iraq into 3 or more independent countries. This baffoon would not be confirmed to head our international affairs.
If I were Hilary Clinton and had any future expectations of any high office, I would avoid anything to do with the Obama administration (except being Secretary of State) like the bubonic plague. Obama et al are now rapidly becoming box office poison.
Hilary would do well for herself to stay on as Secretary of State, but not get invovled in politics. Obama and the Democrats have systematically alienated everyone they can think of.
Hilary won't do them any good becuase the people know that she has no imput on Obama's domestic policies.
The big mistake was making him president. It should have been her. Popularity was chosen over qualifications. Why do you think Bush ended up president...
Voters check your candidates not mob popularity.
As a Democrat he is not getting my vote next election.
Who cares!!!!!...there nothing but a bunch of spendocracts, any way you slice it obama, are hillary, the American people need something better then more spendocracts holding any office. Look what they have visited on the American public to date now!!!!!. Vote the spendocracts out of office come Nov 2 2010
Bill Clinton, after losing the 1994 midterm elections, was free of his "friends" and went to the "center" and won re-election. Watch history repeat itself.

Obama won't run in 2012 unless he grants amnesty to the 12 million illegals in the USA...
At this point he can only survive using race politics
Any sane scenario would have Biden dumping Obama. Joe is a regular guy with all the faults of regular guys. Obama? Well, he seems like he came from outer space.
A Biden presidency would put somebody in the white house with actual experience and a common touch. Mrs Clinton is a divisive and arrogant person with little connection to the people.
Why on earth does anyone give credibility to a leak? These kind of "reports" and rumors are always around in Washington, especially on a slow news day. In this case, it's just another opportunity to rave, rant, and vent for the WSJ and the right-wing paranoid Obama-haters who populate its comment sites,
Why not put a Massachusetts ultra-liberal on the ticket. There's a real chance that Barney Frank or Martha Coakley may lose their respective elections.
According to DNC chairman former VA governor T. Kaine, chances of Hillary running for VP with Obama is like Randy Moss going to the Vikings... Oooops, Randy Moss just joined the Vikings. Either Tim Kaine has a sixth sense of what is in the air or very good betting statistician.
If Obama does this, it i maybe the only career saver available to him. Why does it matter that he throws Biden under the bus,? Disillusioned democrats at least consider Hillary more credible than Obama and she has clearly maintained being committed to the leftist agenda.
Biden as a secretaray of state, can continue to be a buffoon which will make him among the good company of similar species around the world leaders from Iran, Afghanistan, North Korea, Mexico, Venezuela,
Should Obama has a seond term, imagine Greece, Spain, France's union members street performances. Is it far behind in US?
It would be like re-arranging the deck chairs on the Titanic.
The ship would still be going down !!!
It's the policies stupid!
How about we dump Obysmal from the ticket and have Hillary be Pres and Biden be VP? Otherwise, I'm sure that the Democratic ticket is doomed. But that's alright with me!
Dumping Biden for Clinton: What Would That Accomplish?
Obamas death in less than 2 months. (If they would win, which would be a REAL long shot!) :>)
loose cannon Biden as Sec State is a very scary thought. As VP he is relatively harmless. As Sec State he could really cause global security problems.
Why would Clinton even entertain the thought of V.P. when if she wants it the people would vote for her in the primaries and she could beat Obama and run for President on her own. The people are tied of O.B. and his B.S.
"Hey come on, man. I mean why would I give up the gig I have now? Becoup perks, little to no responsibilities other than, you know man, showing up at things like the opening of the Olympics with my entire family and posing for photos with Shaun White? Man, you must be kidding me. And why would I want to actually have to make a decision? Man, one of my advisors told me once that can be hard work. Man, I'm stayin' right here. You media guys have got to stop working this. Man, my gig is to be the anti-Cheney."
Biden should dump Obama and run Hillary for his boss.
Barrack Obama has destroyed the future of all minorities everywhere. It's going to be another fifty or one hundred years before another black is elected president and he more than likely set back the chances of electing a woman as well.
Barrack Obama is the worst President to ever old elected office. Hilary Clinton would have been a much better choice. He's going to be a one term dunce and after November 2, 2010 he will become a Lame Duck. Fortunately, the Republicans will have the majority in the House and move up a few notches in the Senate and we will be able to cap some of this excessive spending toward bankruptcy.
Barrack Obama ran on a promise of hope and change, but once he was elected he is not following through with any of his campaign promises. The problem of course is that it's going to take a long time to get America back on her feet again, and with a guy like Obama in charge it's going to make it doubly hard.
Hilary Clinton is not the person for VP because the VP basically does nothing. So, her input will not be of any value whatsoever.
Another Chicago politician throws a "friend" under the bus to to save himself.
Sorry. Biden who?
"Dumping Biden for Clinton: What Would That Accomplish?"
A gain of about 50 IQ points.
The similarity that Obama's poll numbers were like Reagan's first term ends there.
Reagan knew that he HAD to fix the economy or everyone loses. So he made that a TOP priority as soon as he took office.
Obama ignored the economy that has promoted so much suffering for Americans BOTH Democrat and Republican. Instead, he chose to push Healthcare which is already plunging the economy further into crises and is projected to compound current healthcare problems - such as the lack of doctors and nurses.
He's just grabbing at straws now.
Better idea. Let's dump Obama for Clinton
Clinton made the mistake of underestimating Obama or overestimating her election team. Considering how unpopular Democrat Senators have become it was brilliant to "give up" her Senate seat for Secretary of State. She is now in the perfect position to be seen without being blamed.
If BO recovers she has done nothing wrong. If he destructs Hilary Clinton will be the only alternative with both brand recognition and a national constituency. The Democratic Party will have no other real choice.
With a husband who can campaign better than anyone else in national politics the Clintons would be the frontrunners from the day they announce Hilary's candidacy.
Can we dump all 3 of them along with Pelosi and slick Garry?
Rearranging the deck chairs on the Titanic would NOT save the ship of state in 2012. I seriously doubt Obama will even get the nomiination in 2012, let alone be in a position to chose his useful idiot Veep. Long before 2012, Hillary will have left her job to begin her run against Obama and we'll see the same scenario that brought Johnson to the conclusion that he would not seek the nomination again, also in the face of serious challenges from within his own party. After Nov 2, being the President will become a very lonely job!
Hopefully nothing. Democrats have had two years to "run the table" and their stewardship has proven a disaster. Even the Europeans have turned on them.
Perhaps to reward a loyal old soldier (Biden) by insulating him from defeat ?
Why is the WSJ 'reporting' on unconfirmed speculation? Oh, yes the WSJ as the same owner and reporting standards as Fox 'News'.
Maybe the Prez recognizes Biden is an idiot who usually has his foot in his mouth . . . God help us were he ever to become President!
remember what happened to the guy in the park when he was between the Clintons and something they wanted??????
Certain defeat!
Why exchange one loser for another? At least Biden has qualifications other than "but I was married to a President..." and "I could have been someone".
Biden is an IDIOT, enough said.
The only reason Hilary would be offered the position is to keep her from running for President.
What would it accomplish?
1.) It would stop Hillary from sucking up AIPAC dollars for her presidential campaign in exchange for engageing th US in yet another 4 trillion dollar war in the middle east. This time against Iran, and
2.) It would also stop Hillary sucking up Chinese dollars for her presidential campaign in exchange for all the State Department's intelligengence data being leaked in her Chinagate 2
BHO has given us healthcare, financial reform and oversight, an energy policy, dialog with some enemies, the pull out of Iraq and an economy heading to recovery with the saving of the banking and housing industries. What's left to do?
I do not comment on WSJ blogs; even though I would like to. WSJ make them part of the WSJ community' then I will participate. In the meantime, I will not bother to read the blogs.
Obama not running for a second term...
Right. And I got some real estate on the moon I can sell you.

GOP voters in Nevada congregated around the state on Saturday to caucus and play their part in deciding the Republican presidential primary.
As expected, Mitt Romney ran away with the contest, leading throughout the day and eventually winning by more than 10 points. The real competition played out between Newt Gingrich and Ron Paul, who jockeyed for the runner-up spot hoping to come away with much-needed delegates. Nevada allocates its 28 delegates proportionally, meaning that Romney extended his lead over the rest of the pack, while Gingrich and Paul also made modest pick-ups.
The caucusing process didn't go over as smoothly as state GOP officials might have hoped, as caucus-goers at some precincts were turned away after showing up late due to confusion about the schedule. This doesn't reflect well on the Nevada GOP, especially considering ongoing calls for the to return to a primary system like it used before a switch in the 2000 election. In primaries, voters cast ballots without the preliminary discussion period used in caucuses.
Despite some hiccups, many of Nevada's 500,000-plus registered Republicans showed up to vote, around 25 percent of them Mormons who overwhelmingly supported Romney -- who is also Mormon -- over his rivals.
All of this took place in a state that leads the nation in unemployment, foreclosure filings and homes with underwater mortgages. While candidates campaigned on their typical pro-jobs platforms, they managed to largely skip over the housing crisis all together.
Below is a list of winners and losers from the Nevada caucuses. Make your pick for the biggest in each category.
Romney blew out the competition on Saturday, cementing his status as primary frontrunner and building on his delegate lead. His win will likely propel him into other February primary contests -- in states such Colorado, Minnesota and his home-state of Michigan -- where he's also expected to put on a strong showing. Apart from just winning, Romney also managed to perform strongly among Tea Party supporters and more-conservative voters, something that he has had trouble doing in previous states.
Not everyone was happy with the way the caucuses played out across the state on Saturday. Confusing notices on scheduling and placement of the meetings reportedly led to some voters being locked out and disenfranchised. Others who got in were still confused about how to go about the process. On top of the issues with the electoral system, GOP candidates themselves managed to neglect the broader state of Nevada on some key issues while traversing the campaign trail. The state leads the nation in unemployment and was among the hardest hit by the housing crisis. Despite this, the four candidates managed to avoid serious discussion of solutions to the foreclosure epidemic and reasons for rampant unemployment in the state in particular.
Mormon voters made their voices heard loud and clear on Saturday, helping propel Mitt Romney, a Mormon himself, to a huge victory in the Silver State. Around a quarter of all voters were members of the Mormon Church, and over 90 percent of them cast ballots for Romney.
Failed U.S. Senate candidate Sharron Angle threw her support behind Rick Santorum in the week before the Nevada caucuses, calling him a "strong fiscal and social conservative who stands on principles above politics." Her endorsement carried little weight, however, as Santorum finished last, far behind the other three candidates. Despite the failure to produce both now and in 2010, Angle isn't ready to rule out a return to electoral politics.
The problems with the caucus system played out as some still remain unconvinced that the caucus system, implemented in the 2000 election, functions better than the previous primary system. Under the primary system, voters would cast votes without the preliminary discussions and pitches from supporters that take place during caucuses.
In typical Trump fashion, the reality TV star made a huge scene with his endorsement. On the day before his announcement, it was reported that he'd back Gingrich, but on the morning of the event, the story was thrown for a loop when he declared he would support Romney. Despite the dramatics, a subsequent Facebook/Politico poll found that the endorsement helped Romney very little, and perhaps even hurt him with voters in Nevada. From Politico: Forty-one percent of those surveyed said Trump's endorsement gave them a more negative view of Romney, compared with just 10 percent who said they now view him more positively. Forty-nine percent said the endorsement had no effect. The results only represent the sentiments of Nevada users on Facebook, not registered voters or likely GOP caucus voters that tend to be more reliable barometers of caucus elections. The Facebook poll, for instance, doesn't exclude Democrats or independents.

Priceless British Antiques Roadshow
Episode #105
Fiona and the team examine the hidden meanings behind some of the stunning jewellery that has appeared on the Roadshow, and Henry Sandon recalls some crimes against ceramics, usually committed by the owner. Also, the cameras get access to all areas at the home of one of the specialists, who left rock n' roll behind to focus on his new obsession. [29 minutes]
This episode has not aired in the past few months on Iowa Public Television.
Series Description: Everyone has their favorite moment from Antiques Roadshow; the exquisite jewelry found on a rubbish tip worth thousands; the cracked tea pot worth enough for its owners to buy their house; the blood-spattered Boer War book that saved the life of the owner's grandfather by stopping a near fatal bullet. In this very special series, the greatest moments from the Roadshow archive, spanning more than 30 years, are revisited, unpicked and explored with newly filmed and revealing accounts from the men and women who first brought these objects to light. The stories uncovered reveal the fascinating personal tales behind the lives of some of the program's most familiar faces - the experts - who in turn, shed new light on some of the greatest treasures rarely seen since their first broadcast.

I live in SE Michigan, and the only fabric shops near me are Joann, Hobby Lobby, and some quilt shops. There is a nice fabric store in Royal Oak (Haberman) that I need to check out, but from what I've heard the prices aren't always the greatest. I've never been in a Hancock to know whether it could possibly be worth an hour drive each way. If I went I'd be looking to stock up on apparel fabric. Thoughts? Am I better off just shopping online?

I am an hour's drive from any fabric store and am primarily a home-dec. person. Hancock's is the nearest store, so I go there several times a year, but I would not consider them to be a great place for apparel fabric if you are looking for a huge variety.
Well, it's certainly worth going at least once. Then you can decide if you want to go again. :)

***When all else fails, call Tiffany.***
They have about the same amount as a JoAnn's but I think some of their fabric is nicer. I prefer to shop at Hancock's. They have a big sale today but they are over an hour for me too now. I think it would be worth it to see.
Hancock's is also nice because they sell Mettler threads - and Metrosene is far and away the best garment thread I have used. Also use it for everything else usually. Also, they sell Maxi-Lock which is most generally used for sergers although I use it for quilting a lot. And they have good sales. Sign up online for the mailings and get your coupons before you go to the store! The nearest Hancock's to me is hundreds of miles away, but I go each year when I visit Seattle and I buy thread and Janome bobbins (they sell Janome machines and a few accessories) and whatever else, and usually fabric that I sew up while I am there. I like Joann's but would love a Hancock's nearer as well.
------"Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible."

My take is that Hancocks has more of a sewing focus than JoAnn's.
I didn't have a Hancocks nearby until we moved to the Seattle area a few months ago, and now I have one on the way home from work. (JoAnn's is just a five-minute further drive away.) I probably stop off at Hancocks about once a week--they have a good stock of high quality thread (Mettler, Gutermann) and some hard-to-find elsewhere notions, unless you have a good sewing store nearby. And of course, pattern sales.
Basically, it's a nice option to have nearby. Would I drive an hour each way to visit? Probably not unless I had a shopping list of notions, patterns (assuming that the appropriate pattern sale was running at the time of my visit), etc.

It depends on the particular store. We only have one Hancocks left in the area, but when we had more some of them were great but some were not that impressive, as far as amount of apparel fabrics goes. I do think that Hancocks is better than Joann's for garment sewers. I'm not sure I'd make a special trip just for it, though, but I might do a combined trip with any other things I wanted to do in the area. :)
From what I've heard about Haberman's from people here on PR (never been there myself), I'd try there first, at least once, unless you are on a severe budget.

We have a Hancocks in town; I think of it as the polar fleece store. That being said, it is the only apparel fabric store in town and I spend a lot of happy moments there pawing through the flat fold tables for treasures. I'd make the drive but then in Wyoming we have been know to drive 100 miles in one direction for an especially good malt. ;)
------I've quit fighting my inner demons. We're on the same side now.
It's just fabric; we can out-think it.
Funny; I drove thirty minutes each way this morning without thinking twice just to buy cat food...funny how the areas we live in affect our perception of what is a decent or not decent distance to drive for a trip.
I think it's worth seeing once, then you'll have a better sense. It's hard to judge by other people's experiences, particularly when each store is so different. While there are a FEW things I like there, for the most part, the local JA has significantly more with better prices, which means a lot to me. If one store doesn't have it, I generally find it at the other though. Is there another errand you might need to run out that way that would make a trip more worthwhile??
------2015 In: 36 yards
2015 Sewn: 25.5 yards
2014 In: 99.75 yards
2014 Sewn: 80.5 yards
I'll try anything once :)
Please excuse my typos...sometimes it is harder to go back and edit on mobile than it is worth!
Thanks for all the input! I'm in the Ann Arbor-Ypsilanti area, and while I have regularly driven 30 min each way for local trips for things on the far side of town or east of here, an hour each way feels much further for whatever reason. The closest Hancock looks to be on the south side of Toledo. Not sure what else I'd do down there, but I can't say I've thought about it terribly hard. We pass by Toledo on the way to visit family in Pittsburgh, so I suppose on our next trip I could tortue hubby with a slight detour.
Yeah, I need to take a trip to Haberman, but I've been putting it off because funds are tight right now. Hubby is between jobs and I'm a grad student (I get paid for my research work, but not much).

As highest amongst OECD countries: Israel's unemployment rates jumps to 6.3%
The rate of unemployment in June jumped 0.3% to 6.3%, in seasonally adjusted figures, the Central Bureau of Statistics reports. Unemployment has risen from 5.6% in April.
In absolute figures 241,000 people are unemployed. It should be stressed that the figures relate to before Operation Protective Edge so Israel already entered the Gaza conflict with a sharp rise in unemployment.
On the positive side the figures show that participation in the work force in June climbed from 64.2% to 64.7%.
Part of the explanation of the rise in unemployment is that many young people have come onto the job market but have not yet succeeded in finding employment.
The quarterly figures also reflect the rising trend in unemployment which was 6% in the second quarter of 2014 compared with 5.8% in the first quarter.

David Shames Saul
1After Saul had chased the Philistines away, people told him, "David is in the desert area near En Gedi."
2So Saul chose 3000 men from all over Israel and began searching for David and his men. They looked near Wild Goat Rocks. 3Saul came to some sheep pens beside the road. There was a cave near there, so Saul went in to relieve himself. David and his men were deep inside that same cave. 4David's men told him, "This is day the Lord told you about when he said, 'I will give your enemy to you, and you can do whatever you want to him.'"
So David crawled closer and closer to Saul and cut off a corner of Saul's robe. Saul didn't notice what happened. 5Later, David felt bad about what he did. 6He said to his men, "I pray the Lord never lets me do anything like that to my master again. I must not do anything against Saul, because he is the Lord'S chosen king.#24:6 chosen king Literally, "anointed one." Also in verse 10." 7David said these things to stop his men. He would not let his men hurt Saul.
Saul left the cave and went on his way. 8Later, David came out of the cave and called out to Saul, "My lord the king!"
Saul looked back. David bowed with his face to the ground to show his respect. 9David said to Saul, "Why do you listen when people say, 'David plans to hurt you'? 10You can see that with your own eyes that is not true. The Lord put you within my grasp today in the cave, but I refused to kill you. I was merciful to you. I said, 'I won't hurt my master. Saul is the Lord'S chosen king.' 11Look at this piece of cloth in my hand. I cut off the corner of your robe. I could have killed you, but I didn't. Now, I want you to understand this. I want you to know that I am not planning anything against you. I did nothing wrong to you, but you are hunting me and trying to kill me. 12Let the Lord be the judge. I hope the Lord will punish you for the wrong you did to me, but I won't fight you myself. 13There is an old saying:
'Bad things come from bad people.'
"I haven't done anything bad, and I won't hurt you. 14Who are you chasing? Did the king of Israel bring an army to chase a single flea or a dying dog? 15Let the Lord be the judge. Let him decide between you and me. He will support me and show that I am right. He will save me from you."
16When David finished speaking, Saul asked, "Is that your voice, David my son?" Then Saul lifted his voice and began to cry. 17He said, "You are right, and I am wrong. You were good to me, even though I have been bad to you. 18You yourself said it when you told me about the good things you did. The Lord put my life in your hands, but you did not kill me. 19This shows that you are not my enemy. A man doesn't catch his enemy, and then just let him go. He doesn't do good things for his enemy. May the Lord reward you for being good to me today. 20Now, I know that you will become the new king. You will rule the kingdom of Israel. 21Now make a promise to me with an oath using the Lord'S name. Promise that you will not kill my descendants, even after I die. Promise me that you will not erase my name from my father's family."
22So David made a promise to Saul. He promised that he would not kill Saul's family. Then Saul went back home. David and his men went back up to the fort.

Dear Listeners,
What a total absolute treat for you this morning--all this great new music from all these wonderful and wondrous and talented and creative musicians--all gathered at the Folk Alliance conference this past weekend in Eugene.
I become more and more aware of this everyday: that music can change and heal this troubled world. Support the musicians who work long and hard towards this goal. Go see them live, buy their CDs, tell your friends about them, and tell the musicians themselves that you appreciate their music. That's an order.
Tonight we'll listen to releases on the Grrr label.. -- not the American label which releases Christian music, but rather the French label which has released some incredible music in the last 35 plus years. Mainly the label of Un Drame Musical Instantane, who combined free jazz, rock, and modern classical and mixed electronics with acoustic instruments in highly creative ways, Grrr also went on to release other excellent recordings by similar artists like Helene Sage, Bernard Vitet, Pied de Poul and more.. .

Tuesday 10/18/2011 from 8-10pm
On this weeks edition of THE MELTING POT We will be focusing on the music of BEATS ANTIQUE featuring Interviews & Music blended and remixed live in the studio for 2 hours. Focusing on the new release ELEKTRAFONE, as well as rarities, remixes, classics and covers... Refreaked!! Like youve never heard them before.
Since the group's inception from the eclectic underground of San Francisco's performance art scene, Beats Antique has been notorious for making it nearly impossible to sit still. They meld their mediums as attentively as they fuse the cultures that inspire their sound. All self produced and composed, the trio creates a unique collage: an animalistic, raw musical event that blurs the lines between the provocative, the spiritual, and the artistic, while still maintaining an allegiance to the muses of class and beauty.

DENVER, Colo. Colorado oil and gas regulators have decided to allow a Weld County wastewater disposal well to reopen, albeit at lower pressures and volumes after two earthquakes.
The Colorado Oil and Gas Conservation Commission announced Thursday that the well east of Greeley has been determined to be "potentially related" to two small earthquakes in May and June.
The Commission says that well operator NGL Water Solutions DJ LLC has plugged the bottom of the well, an action thought to mitigate the potential for future quakes.
The Commission ordered a temporary stop to injections at the well on June 23. Regulators said that the injection well will be monitored and may be halted again if there are more quakes nearby.
Injection at the well began in April of 2013.

Leveraging PaaS to Tune and Monitor Apps in the Cloud
Tobias Kunze (11.Oct.2011 at 14:45)
Talk at International PHP Conference / WebTech Con 2011 (English - UK)
You've probably heard about the cloud and how a Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS) can simplify your life by easing the deployment of apps. But you probably haven't seen too much on what a PaaS can do once you are up and running. This talk focuses on how to leverage OpenShift's deep monitoring and profiling capabilities to enable you to make intelligent performance tuning and scaling decisions. We'll also cover how to automate many of these tuning tasks. Using an example application, we'll explore when to tweak an application's code vs its architecture, how to tell deployment-related from distributed issues, and in general how to adapt your application to scale in the cloud. We'll also look at using alerts to link your environments with Continuous Integration on one end and Disaster Recovery and Georedundancy on the other.

Hi everyone, I am struggling, trying to import an XML file into my wordpress. I've tried several templates with their respective XML and I always get the same error, the page takes a long time to load, it doesn't load, then I get this:
///////////////////////////////////////// 500: Internal server error
This error is generated when a script running on the server could not be implemented or permissions are incorrectly assigned for files or directories
Troubleshooting suggestions:
Temporarily disable any rewrite rules by renaming your .htaccess file if it exists.
Ensure that any CGI or Perl scripts have at least .755. permissions.
If trying to run PHP and you get this error, you may have an invalid php.ini in your /cgi-bin, or may be missing your php.dat file in this folder.
I would appreciate if some expert could help me !!!

The rest will either oxidize or sulfur out eventually (fixer). My suggestion is to shoot more film but 20 rolls should be fine for 5L of chemicals over a year.

Spanish Tomato Bread
Serves 2
|2 red ripe tomatoes
|1 small clove garlic (or large if you prefer) peeled
|1dessertspoon extra virgin olive oil
|Salt and freshly milled black pepper
|4 long thick slices of French stick
|8 thin slices Serrano or Ibérico ham
|Oven temperatures and Conversions
|Click here for information
This recipe is adapted from Delia's How to Cheat at Cooking
First skin the tomatoes (see How to Skin and De-seed Tomatoes here) then roughly chop them. Place them in a mini-chopper together with the garlic, olive oil and some seasoning, and simply whizz to a purée.
Now empty the mixture into a nylon sieve set over a bowl and let the excess liquid drain off for about half an hour.
Meanwhile pre-heat the grill to its highest setting.
Then press out the excess liquid from the tomato pulp with the back of a tablespoon.
Next toast the bread lightly on one side (about 10cm from the grill), then spread the tomato pulp on the untoasted side.
Top with slices of Serrano or Ibérico ham. Followed by a few drops of olive oil and some freshly milled black pepper.
These are lovely on their own served as a starter or divided into small pieces to serve with drinks.

Filmed at the Serbian Cultural Center in Chicago by The Allan Film Company (www.theallanfilmcompany.com)
Bio: District 97 is the only Progressive Rock band in the world to feature an American Idol finalist and a Chicago Symphony Orchestra virtuoso cellist.
The band was formed in the Fall of 2006 by drummer Jonathan Schang, keyboardist Rob Clearfield, bassist Patrick Mulcahy and guitarist Sam Krahn. The foursome from Chicago honed a no-holds barred style of Liquid Tension Experiment inspired Instrumental Rock before deciding the right vocalist was needed to complement their sound; enter 2007 American Idol Top 10 Female Finalist, Leslie Hunt. With a look, sound and stage presence comparable to a young Ann Wilson from Heart, Leslie's dynamic performances pushed the band into a new direction that forged a unique marriage between accessible, catchy vocal melodies and an adventurous instrumental prowess.
After attending a show and being highly impressed, Katinka Kleijn, cellist extraordinaire from the world-renowned Chicago Symphony Orchestra, joined the band. She was followed shortly thereafter by one of Chicago's finest young guitarists, Jim Tashjian. With this new lineup of peerless musicianship in place, District 97 began wowing crowds and establishing a devoted fanbase through packed shows at legendary Chicago venues such as House of Blues, Schubas and Martyrs'.
In May 2010, the band signed with Laser's Edge Records, the foremost home of new Progressive music. Laser's Edge will oversee a worldwide physical and digital release of District 97's debut effort, Hybrid Child, in September 2010,. Recorded with two of Chicago's best engineers, Manny Sanchez and Chris Harden (Billy Corgan, Fall Out Boy, Umphrey's McGee etc.), the album balances a meticulous attention to detail and studio-craft with the visceral power of a rock band that is firing on all cylinders. Running the gamut from Meshuggah-inspired metal, the epic majesty of Yes, and the melodicism of the Beatles, Hybrid Child unveils District 97 as a true force to be reckoned with, and one that is poised to take the music world by storm. With fans ranging from high school students to world-class musicians, this process is clearly well underway.

Summary of traits: Driven, sporty, at times insane.
A lot of people ask me if any of the holidays doesn't involve physically-intensive activities. Yes, some of my holidays are pure sight-seeing (nice beaches). Being in the real estate line, the last thing I would like to see is another concrete jungle during my free time. Yes, most of my overseas trips are physically intensive and a justification to eat the local food the entire day (Yes, is entire day! My friends and I will eat almost every hour the day before and after the trek/ marathon). It is all relative. To some people running 10km is a killer, to me is just a form of relaxation and reflection.
Even though I enjoy pushing myself beyond the comfort zone, I also make silly mistakes like pushing the door with the label 'Pull' or boarding the bus in the wrong direction. As a strong believer of substance over form, I can't be bothered over stuffs like differentiating between a sorbet spoon, soup spoon or pasta spoon. As long as it is a spoon that puts food into my mouth, I'm happy with it. Call it low class or whatever class and I don't care. Who I eat with is more important than the food and it can be as simple as a McDonald's happy meal.
Life isn't perfect, neither is this creature. You probably spotted a few grammatical errors. Life isn't about being the perfect person, or making perfect choices. Life is about giving your best, getting the best out it and enjoy the journey.
*I'm not on A-list so I won't be able to see who likes me. Message me if you want to find out more.

(Or any others) .... just wondering which is everyone's favourite and why?

(Or any others) .... just wondering which is everyone's favourite and why?
Ilford Pan F+ and Delta 100 for portraiture and landscape is quite my taste.
I'm not really crazy about T-Max except for the TMZ 3200.
Pan F+ @ iso 12 developed in Rodinal 1:100 for 6 minutes makes nice negs.
I like Tri-X for its tonality, long density scale, strong sense of line, and even traditional grain pattern. It's a flexible film available in most of the formats I shoot. I process it in PMK for enlargement, ABC pyro for contact prints, and Acufine when I need the extra speed.
The others you mention are all very capable films. Try them all, pick the one that you have the strongest affinity for, and use it exclusively for a year or so to see what it can and can't do.
Delta 100 (120) developed in Pryocat-HD for highlight-control, fine detail and grainless rendition. APX100 (35mm) in Barry-Thornton's Metol 2-Bath for foolproof 35mm photography with in-camera metering. APX100 and FP4+ are to close together for my taste to use them both side by side. I do not use Tri-X.
I am glad to hear that APX 100 and FP4 are close together since I can't buy APX 100 in 4x5 anymore. I have just bought 100 sheets of FP4 so will see how it works for me.
Tri-X 90%, HP5+ and FP4. about 10%.
I've also got a box of Delta 100 that I'm going to experiement with.
The look may be more different than my above comment implied. Sharpness, grain and speed are not to far apart, the rest is a matter of taste and specific application IMHO.Quote:

Pan F @ ISO 32 in Rodinol 4 3/4 mins 1:25 is my fave for 35mm landscapes.
Medium format Tri-X in Rodinol, lovely skin tones.
Just starting to play with Delta 100 for 5"x4" in Rodinol. I have just developed some studio shots of some Cala lilies which look promising.
GO TRI X and PAN F !!!!
I like Efke 50 in roll film too.

Not to be the bearer of ill tidings, Herman, but you are close to the last person in America still wondering this.
Getting yelled at for being the bearer of bad news—or even non-news—is not uncommon.
In about 12 minutes the gun carriage and bearer party and escort party, led by a band of the Royal Marines, will lead off.
How would people in the audience have known that here was a bearer of friendly fire, not an accomplice in the massacre?
Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but here at Royalist towers we think not.
"I would prefer to become the bearer of terms than of information," he said.
The bearer, if suspected and examined, is to produce that as the only one he carries.
She turned her head and glanced at some cards that the bearer had brought in on a tray.
I immediately determined to follow the bearer of this letter.
Miss Alton, the bearer of this, is the person I recommended as worthy the honour of attending you as a companion.

Mats made in heaven! Our edit of this season's must-have rugs
by Sophie Thrower • Thursday, June 18, 2015 • Uncategorized • 1 Comment
Whether it's a small fluffy runner at the foot of the the bed, or a big statement mat in the middle of the living room, the right rug instantly makes a house feel a little more like a home. Whilst finding the perfect one can be tricky, there's nothing like the current flurry of mid-season sales to help inspire us! Keeping the warmer weather in mind, we've rounded up a few of our summer favourites.
For simple schemes, these monochrome options from H&M are a great place to start. Adorned in repeat folksy prints in a pared-back palette, they're unfussy, budget friendly and look great paired with the matching range of cushions! Team with unvarnished floors and chalky finishes for a cool, scandi feel.
Bring a sense of glamour to a neutral scheme with this gold-flecked beauty from Graham & Green (above). Putting a modern twist on a traditional cow hide rug, it's a great way to add a touch of sparkle and opulence to your room! Tip: make the most of its shimmering tones by adding metallic accents around the room, such as a statement gold table stand.
For a subtle burst of pattern, this screen-printed durrie rug from French Connection has a softly faded design in muted blush tones. Combining a dainty print with a distressed finish, it would look great with leather occasional furniture or stripped-back floors. The tassels add a pretty touch, too!
If you're scouting the shops for an understated design, look no further than Rockett St George (above). This rustic range has it all; handmade in India, these affordable pieces would look great in any room of the house. Plus, the lightweight weaves make them perfect for summer!

Improving Teaching Does Improve Teachers: Evidence from Lesson Study
Lewis, Catherine C., Perry, Rebecca R., Friedkin, Shelley, Roth, Jillian R., Journal of Teacher Education
We comment on three aspects of Hiebert and Morris's article, "Teaching, Rather Than Teachers, As a Path Toward Improving Classroom Instruction." First, we add modestly to their ideas about why teachers, instead of teaching, receive so much attention. Second, we support their call for a focus on improving teaching (we suggest teaching and learning), and we discuss evidence that such a focus improves teachers as well. Finally, we argue that teachers need practice-based, collegial learning structures.
Hiebert and Morris advance several explanations for the dominant focus on improving teachers (rather than teaching). We add one more explanation: policy makers' disappointment with many results of investments in instructional materials and interventions. A number of curricula "proven" effective in rigorous small-scale research have not succeeded when tried more broadly (e.g., What Works Clearinghouse, 2009, 2010). So, the logic goes, the problem is the quality of the educators who use these "proven" curricula and programs. However, many U.S. educators lack three very basic supports needed to implement any program well: high-quality instructional resources (especially teacher's manuals), practice-based opportunities to learn, and collegial learning that enables development of shared knowledge and commitment among teachers. Our research on U.S. lesson study shows that when such supports are made available to teachers, they are able to improve their knowledge, to build habits and dispositions that support improvement, and to improve student learning (Perry & Lewis, 2011).
A Brief Background on Lesson Study
Lesson study is an inquiry cycle conducted by a team of teachers that is centered around a "research lesson"--an actual classroom lesson designed to investigate and improve the teaching of a particular topic (Lewis & Hurd, 2011). During the research lesson, team members gather data on student thinking and learning, studying selected students to see how their thinking evolves (or fails to), and what aspects of the lesson design enhance or pose barriers to learning. Team members present these data during a postlesson discussion, drawing out implications for teaching and learning the specific topic and for teaching and learning more broadly.
In Japan, lesson study occurs as a school-based, district-based, and national activity, with the different layers working synergistically, to allow innovations to spread across the country through live public research lessons (Lewis & Tsuchida, 1997). The Japanese mathematics teaching through problem solving that attracted such attention through the 1999 Third International Mathematics and Science (TIMSS; StiLler & Hiebert, 1999) video study was developed, refined, and spread through public research lessons. In addition to spreading the annotated instructional plans highlighted by Hiebert and Morris, public research lessons provide an opportunity to see, critique, and refine how the plans are actually brought to life, to meet colleagues who can be called on when questions arise, and to build a shared commitment to the ongoing work of changing one's practice. For teachers, watching lessons from the student's perspective can build knowledge of student thinking and motivation to improve their own instruction. A Japanese teacher in her 10th year of teaching recalls how, early in her career, she cried after seeing a research lesson taught by her fellow first-grade teacher:
I felt so sorry for my own students. I thought their lives would have been so much better if they'd been in the other teacher's class. You realize you have had a big impact on your students. You see how authoritarian teachers have very quiet classes. Teachers who value students' ideas have very active classes. You see how teachers are creating a class, not just teaching a lesson. (Lewis & Tsuchida, 1997, p. 16)
Three Supports Needed to Improve Teaching
Although Hiebert and Morris make the case that annotated instructional products and common assessments are needed to improve teaching, we identify an overlapping and somewhat broader set of supports, illustrated in Figure 1: high-quality instructional resources (including teacher's manual and assessments), structures for learning within practice, and collegial learning. …

Australians - heat and fire
View Single Post
January 5 2013, 10:24 PM
Miss Chicken
Little three legged cat with attitude
Location: Howrah, Hobart, Tasmania
Re: Australians - heat and fire
UPDATE - still no confirmed deaths.
The possible death reported at Dunalley was reported by a firefighting crew who was force to take shelter in their firetruck as the fire passed over them. Just before the fire went over them they spotted a man who was trying to defend his home. There was no way the crew could reach him and later they couldn't see him and reported him as a possible death. However no body has been found and it seems that the man might have escape somehow.
The weather conditions on Friday were very similar to those that occurred on 7 Feb 1967 when fire swept through southern Tasmania. However back then 62 people died, 2000 buildings lost and 264,000 ha ((652,360 acres) burnt in just five hours. As far as the current fire go about 36,000 ha have burnt and about 100-110 buildings lost. I think this shows just how much better fire fighting techniques and equipment are than they were back in 1967 and also how much better the early warning system and evacuation procedures are.
Some very lucky escapes
One extended family on a caravaning holiday was trapped with fires on three sides of them. Luckily they were spotted by a fire bombing helicopter. The helicopter bombed their site time after time with water from a nearby dam until the fire had passed.
One woman holding her 11 month old son had to wade out until only their heads were above water as fire burnt down to the water line.
