hell no anything he does is for campaign reasons
Agree, its his job
and a very poor one
sadly...i know
Oh yes, he put on his superman suit and flew to New York under his own power and single handedly rebuilt the city using his superpowers. Or at least that is the way his spin doctors and the media are playing it. It was a bad hurricane, but we have had worse that did not get half the publicity. All media hype.
heel yea. he even said that at a time like this politics dint matter. where mitt romney and his helping hand? exactly. nowhere in the picture
For himself yes. He wasnt to compassionate and courages when MY ambassador to Libya was calling for air cover in the middle of an attack. Infact he watched those men die, went to vegas and cried that he had had a rough day. Yea he is compassionate for himself.
He is doing and saying exactly what he has campaigned against ( putting more control in the local authorities and streamlining federal aid in short less federal oversight) and what Romney has campaigned for.

Just goes to show that when the cards are down even 0bama thinks Romney's way is the right way.
How can that do nothing good worst president ever get reelected?

I got this from a reliable source, but even he questions the veracity of this story.... But here you go anyway:
Matthew McConaughey is rumored to be the front runner for Marvel's early
2011 superhero project "The First Avenger: Captain America" reports _Cinema
(http://www.cinemablend.com/new/Scoop-Captain-America-May-Be-Matthew-McConaughey-8737.html) .
The character's real name is Steve Rogers, a sickly young man who was
enhanced to the peak of human perfection by an experimental serum in order to aid
the United States war effort during the Second World War.
The character remains one of the few of Marvel's most popular characters yet
to have been turned into a feature film. In many ways it still faces much
difficulty due to the nature of the uber-patriotic character in a modern world
which has become more critical of American imperialism than before.
The solution seems to be repositioning the character and placing the
emphasis on his role as the leader of 'The Avengers'. The character will team up
with Iron Man, Hulk and Thor in that film opening a few weeks later in July

Amid a push for Illinoisans to enact constitutional amendments on recalling governors, redrawing legislative and congressional districts, new tax rates and other pressing issues, Illinois House Speaker Michael Madigan is concerned about a different issue – judicial qualifications.
Amid a push for Illinoisans to enact constitutional amendments on recalling governors, redrawing legislative and congressional districts, new tax rates and other pressing issues, Illinois House Speaker Michael Madigan is concerned about a different issue – judicial qualifications.
A proposal by Madigan – officially, House Joint Resolution Constitutional Amendment 57 -- would add an experience requirement for a person to meet in order to become a judge.
Specifically, a would-be judge would have to have been a licensed attorney for at least 10 years before becoming a circuit judge, 12 years before becoming an appellate justice and 15 years before joining the state's Supreme Court.
The state constitution now requires judges to be a U.S. citizen, a licensed lawyer and living in the district from which they are elected.
"I think it's basic, sound policy that before people become a judge and have rulings that affect other people, they should be licensed attorneys for 10 years," Madigan said after a committee hearing on the idea last week.
Why it's needed
The measure would give Illinois the toughest judicial experience requirement in the nation.
Of states that require a certain amount of years before becoming a judge, none requires more than ten years and most require less.
The change would ensure that someone couldn't become a judge without having knowledge of the judicial system, said state Rep. John Fritchey, D-Chicago, chairman of a House judiciary committee.
"When you look at the important nature of the cases handled by judges, they can involve anything from principles and constitutional law to life or death matters in a criminal case," he said. "This would ensure that we have qualified people on the bench.
"The reality is that, all too often, voters simply look at surnames of judicial candidates without qualifications."
But Andrew Leipold, a professor of law at the University of Illinois, said the change probably would not have a huge effect on the quality of judges – mainly because extremely young judges are hard to come by even now.
And considering the broad range of law one can practice after becoming a lawyer, he said a simple years-with-a-license benchmark doesn't necessarily translate into a solid candidate for a judge.
"There are people who have practiced for just a few years but have done very intense and sophisticated work that would give them lots of experience relevant to judges," Leipold said. "And then there are those who have been practicing for 20 years, but with a narrow kind of work that could make them an expert on a certain subject but doesn't mean they have the experience needed to become a judge."
Getting on the ballot
It's not the change that has some lawmakers concerned – it's the amendment's ballot impact.
Page 2 of 3 - The constitution provides that only three constitutional articles can be put on the ballot for voter approval at one time. One of those spots already is taken by a proposed amendment allowing recall for future governors, which was approved last year.
House Minority Leader Tom Cross, R-Oswego, says Madigan's judicial experience amendment could be used to keep other ideas from reaching the ballot – such as changing how lawmakers draw their own districts, an effort Republicans are pushing this year.
"We believe it is a tactic by the Speaker," said House Minority Leader Tom Cross.
Cross also sent Madigan a letter urging no movement on the judicial amendment.
"The three-article restriction on General Assembly-initiated amendments requires a judicious and prioritized approach on which amendments deserve consideration by the General Assembly," the letter stated. "Focus is needed on what proposed amendments are most timely and therefore appropriate for the November 2010 ballot."
Madigan said the Republican speculation about whether he has ulterior motives "is a bit premature." Madigan said he proposed a near-identical amendment in 2000, but that measure failed because of a lack of Republican support.
No opposition from judges
Regardless of motives, those in the judicial community are backing Madigan's proposal.
David Anderson, executive director of the Illinois State Bar Association, said the association's board of directors voted unanimously to support the requirements.
"There have been instances where someone newly out of law school who was clearly eligible to run has been elected," he said. "And we feel that experience in practice is an important precursor to service on the bench."
Ron Spears, president of the Illinois Judges Association, said the change would be in the best interest of judges.
But Spears also warned of possible anomalies – and that includes examples on the state's highest court.
Thomas Fitzgerald, the chief justice of the state's Supreme Court, practiced law for only eight years before becoming a circuit judge. Justice Robert Thomas served only seven years before he reached the bench.
"I think it is important to have highly qualified judges – experience is critical," Spears said. "But people don't like artificial barriers to things. For every general rule, there is that exception, that brilliant person who has qualifications in the election coming up."
Spears also pointed to the difference between a licensed attorney and a practicing attorney. The language of the proposal doesn't require attorneys to be practicing, so they could get a license and have another career before becoming judges.
Madigan admitted he would prefer future judges to be practicing attorneys, but said having a license is simply the method by which lawyers are credentialed.
Brian Feldt can be reached at 782-6292.
Page 3 of 3 - At a glance
The Illinois Constitution has three requirements for judges: the must be a U.S. citizen, a licensed lawyer and live in the district from which they are elected.
House Joint Resolution Constitutional Amendment 57 would add experience to the list: at least 10 years as a licensed attorney before becoming a circuit court judge, 12 years before becoming an appellate court justice and 15 years before becoming a state Supreme Court justice.

OCR02252 - *YES* Final Fantasy Legend 2 'Heroes' *RESUB*
Posted 29 December 2010 - 10:15 PM
Title: Heroes
Remixer: ziwtra
Game: Final Fantasy Legend 2 (Saga 2 in japan) [1]
Original song: The Legacy
Composer: Nobuo Uematsu / Kenji Ito
FFL2 is one of the gems of the gameboy and had one of the best
soundtracks on the system. In terms of personal videogame music
nostalgia, this game was one of the earliest I played as a kid. The
recent remake of FFL2 for the DS made me curious as to how the
soundtrack had fared. I was disappointed, but not surprised, to find
that most of the tracks were updated without much creativity
whatsoever. There was only one thing to do of course -- start remixing
the soundtrack myself : )
It should be no surprise to OCR listeners by now that the artists on
OCR are constantly influencing, challenging and learning from each
other. In particular, I'd like to give a shoutout to two classic
tracks that influenced this mix: the peerless big beat of tefnek &
zircon's Waste Water Wipeout [2] and the lo-fi infectious groove in
Fragments of Gold [3] by beej.
This mix takes the original and gives it the lo-fi symphony treatment
with some attitude.
Posted 03 January 2011 - 05:03 PM
As I mentioned above, the sounds were kind of surprising, but enjoyable to listen to. Balance is good, and as far as I can tell the drums sound fine compared to the track (which was one of the issues brought up in the previous judgement.
Sounds good, YES
Posted 04 January 2011 - 08:07 PM
This addresses all of the issues I had with the first submission, and I think sees the song through to it's full potential. Very nice work.
Posted 26 February 2011 - 01:53 AM
I wouldn't even know where to start making some of these transitions and effects. They are here aplenty but done well enough that they aren't getting old. The sounds mesh surprisingly well and the both suit the theme.
The vinyl crackle was a little irksome but it's not an omnipresent issue and it's stylistically fitting so it doesn't bother me enough to make an issue of it.
I will however say that you have selected the most boring name in the history of OCR. It's like you've taken sophisticated pinup and named her Bob.
Posted 02 March 2011 - 08:26 PM
I don't remember the last version too well, but the beat is definitely not plodding anymore, as I found the last version to be, according to my vote. Now it's quite groovin'. The arrangement was also gelling pretty well, so whatever you changed worked. Snare could've been fatter, but the snappiness was sweet and did the job. I think I would have liked this more with chopped-up high-quality samples, instead of SNES/PS era samples, but the articulations are good, the effects are ballin', and this is a pass.

If we are gonna do this we will need a lot of participation from the attendees as well as sponsors. We will need a location where there is an airport a good clean hotel and an area where those that want to photograph can do so. And the weather is temperate. None of this Death Valley in August stuff. AZ in the south is out most of the year. North Texas fails on at least one account and that is lack of desirable things to shoot. Sorry Jim, but Ks and Neb and the like fail that test also.
just a few thoughts right now.
Leelanau county Mi, Traverse Airport more Hotels, B&B's and campgrounds than you can shake a stick at. Some beautiful scenery, some of the best beaches in the world --located on a fresh water inland sea with 30 or 40 miles of National Park coastline, and some very nice hidden beauties.Quote:

Just a thought...
I would like to go to the Upper Pensiula of Mi. It looks to me like the gold mine country of Northern CA. I think the flys and mosquitos are as big a canarys tho.
And summer music festival at nearby Interlochen.

Stereophonic recording?, L/R balance

What does stereo recording achieve? I noticed that the left and right channels of some stereo samples don't sound the same, and loaded them into audacity. The program confirms my suspicion that the sounds vary greatly in characteristics. For a vibrato filled note, most often only one of the channels displays the wavy pattern induced by the vibrato. Is this what stereo recording is supposed to do? So the sounds mixed into your music will have certain instruments placed to the L/R side of the listener?

Minor differences are just a nice variation to our ears. We have two of them, right?
Is there a online library of samples of instruments? I would like to find a sample THAT wrong that you hear a note nearly fully on left channel or nearly fully on right.

He said the company was still determining whether games for the machine would be region-locked, so as to only play, like most console games, in systems sold in certain regions of the world. He noted that downloadable games for the DSi were the first games for Nintendo's DS line to be region-locked.

High-Resolution Audio Explained (PCMAG, February 1, 2012)
[Neil Young] was referring specifically to the compressed MP3 and AAC files most people listen to today. Truth is, they just don't sound all that good. [ ] Even 256Kbps (and yes, 320Kbps) files are still audibly different than what you hear on a CD, although at least those are somewhat closer to the mark. [ ] Switch to an uncompressed FLAC file, and all of the above flaws go away. [ ] Stereo sound fields become three dimensional, with a sense of depth and space. It sounds as if a veil has been lifted; everything has more definition and natural sound.

My opinion lossless downloads from a major vendor like Apple are far far away. The majority of people don't know what it is and will only complain when it takes up far more space with no audio quality benefits to their ears.

People can be coaxed into investing into new hard- and software and audio formats by throwing large numbers at their heads. People believe in numbers. "24 is bigger than 16, so I want the thing with 24 on it". Same what happened in the video sector with 1080p resolutions. "1080p" is a meaningless number if the video is just upscaled from DVD resolution or 720p. Resolution (alone) is no useful metric to assess video quality. The same holds true for audio bit- or sample-rate. Still I expect marketing to focus on exactly that: "Bigger" means "better". Also, placebo and elitism are strong forces, Apple have built a notable portion of their empire based on the latter.

I think that Sam has the right idea. Blogspot seems to be a "secret" back door into the AdSense program.
And friends, thanks for suggesting blogspot, But i don't wanna go like that. I wanna know what is the problem with my blog?? I really don't know why adsense is working like a shit. They are approving 25 days old domain. and dupe content website, That blog is having UAW plugin to get articles automatically.
Now i hate adsense!! I don't wanna apply for adsense anymore!!
Thanks for your help guys!!
Seriously go the blogspot way but if you don't want to apply anymore, don't.
Reapply for Adsense first. I doubt it'll hurt.
I just made a blog about general things all I said was I am looking to buy a car spray gun and am looking at many options like those sorts of posts. Just write posts about anything like I said my friend got accepted for things copied of wikipedia but I wouldn't recommend trying it but you will have to apply under a different name or address as far as I know
Go to blogger.com and start a free blog. Hope the following would be helpful:

You also need to get rid of the duplicate content and write your own articles. Almost all of the articles are found on other web sites.
This violates the rule, "*Your website must contain substantial, original content." You may be getting rejected if took the content from other web sites.

The No. 14 ranked Glenwood girls soccer team suffered its first loss of the season on Friday with a 2-0 setback against Sioux City East.
The Rams (4-1 overall, 3-0 in the Hawkeye 10 Conference) struggled to adjust to the Black Raiders' offensive scheme in the loss.
"Sioux City East played a formation that we were not used to seeing," said Glenwood coach Amy Benson. They did a really good job of using their outside defenders as an extra option on offense."

As the second snowstorm in less than a week rolled into Eastern Jackson County early Tuesday, Jan Keeler said her prayers.
As the second snowstorm in less than a week rolled into Eastern Jackson County early Tuesday, Jan Keeler said her prayers.
And evidently, the wishful thinking and hoping worked, says Keeler, co-chairwoman of annual used book sale led by the Independence Branch of the American Association of University Women.
With the streets cleared for the most part, the 39th annual AAUW used book sale started Thursday at Independence Center on the upper level outside of Macy's. The sale lasts during the mall's normal business hours of 10 a.m. to 9 p.m. and continues Friday and Saturday.
"Was I nervous? Talk about blood pressure," Keeler says. "I was thinking, 'Gosh, what are we going to do?' We can't really call it off because we're scheduled eight, 10 months in advance."
Keeler, who's involvement with the book sale goes back more than 30 years, says the crowd Thursday morning and afternoon seemed lighter compared to the past, calling the weather a likely factor.
She remembers snow showers and torrential rains during other book sales, but Keeler says AAUW has never had to worry about snowstorms affecting the sale like this year. Large piles of plowed snow still filled several parking spaces outside of the mall's main entrance off of 39th Street.
"I have a feeling (Thursday) evening, we'll just be deluged with people," Keeler says. "I think they'll be coming out of the woodwork because of cabin fever. I think it's going to be a really good sale."
This year's AAUW used book sale started as the organization's largest ever, with more than 7,000 books available. Boy Scout Troop 347 – Good Shepherd Community of Christ loaded the boxed books into a rental truck and delivered them to the mall.
Terry Woodruff of Independence stayed mostly in the children's book section Thursday afternoon, seeking out titles for her grandchildren, ages 7 and 10.
"Oh, they have so many books. They're awesome," Woodruff says of why she's returned to the sale for more than five years. "You can always find something. I've already got a bag full. Last year, I spent over $20, just on kids' books."
Starting in January, Woodruff emailed a friend who is a member of AAUW, eager to know when the 39th annual book sale dates were scheduled.
A self-described book person, Roy Manade of Independence says he's attended the sale for at least 10 years.
"What's weird is that I've donated some of these books," Manade says, laughing. "I may not buy anything at all, but I'm going to look for a little while."
This year, Manade actually forgot the book sale was taking place, but his wife quickly called home to remind him when she was at the mall Thursday afternoon, shopping for something else.
Page 2 of 2 - "Everything's pretty clear," Manade says of the weather affecting his trip to the mall. "Now, (Wednesday), I wouldn't have been able to get out of my driveway."
Roy Manade's wife also called a family friend, Luan Miller of Blue Springs, to remind her of the sale. Miller says she has attended the book sale "for as long as I can remember." On Thursday afternoon, she sought the titles of popular thriller authors like James Patterson and Dean Koontz, who are among Miller's favorites.
On average, Miller, who is retired, reads two or three books a week.
"I just like to read, period," she says. "I'm not a television person. I read instead of watch TV. If there are books on sale, I'm coming."
Although she's attended the book sale for at least 20 years, Miller hadn't heard of the after 3 p.m. Brown Sack Sale on Saturday. For the final six hours of the sale, AAUW sells brown grocery bags for $5 each, and customers can fill as many of them as they'd like with books as full as they can get them.
A smile spread across Miller's face as she learned of the Brown Sack Sale for the first time.
"Really?" she says. "I might have to do that."

Open-Air Shakespeare
Under Australian Skies
|Publication Date
|May 2014
|Hardcover Ebook (EPUB) Ebook (PDF)
|Palgrave Pivot
|Global Shakespeares
Many people today first encounter staged Shakespeare in an open-air setting. In Australia, picnic Shakespeares seem particularly suited to the predilections of contemporary audiences and the plays have been performed in a remarkably varied range of sites. Shakespeare has been transported to gardens, parks, caves, mountains and beaches all over the country, in a place that for Shakespeare and his contemporaries was completely unknown. Why does the anomaly of performing Shakespeare in Australian space exert such a strong appeal? This book traces the history of open-air Shakespeare production in Australia from the beginning of the twentieth century to the present day and suggests that the industry reflects important changes in the ways contemporary Australians relate to both their environment and to Shakespeare. It provides striking evidence of the diversity of localised responses to Shakespeare that exist outside Britain, and contributes to our understanding of Shakespeare's changing global impact.

Don't let the raised bar trip you up
On 15 April 2013, significant changes to Australian patent law will come into force. These changes increase the requirements for patentability of inventions. Patent applicants should take steps now to prepare themselves for the 'raised bar'.
As we previously reported, in 2012 the Australian Parliament passed the "Raising the Bar" amendments to the Patents Act. The changes raise the requirements for patentability, most significantly by raising the inventive step threshold, increasing the disclosure requirements for a patent specification, and limiting the scope of amendments to the specification…

Arizona State Sun Devils
ASU revamps Pat Tillman Tunnel at Sun Devil Stadium
The Arizona State Sun Devils will walk through a revamped Pat Tillman Tunnel before games at Sun Devil Stadium this season.
The tunnel redo features new graphics and signage, a massive TV and an image of Tillman walking on to the field, an ASU press release said.
The point of the revamp was to remind every Sun Devil that they are part of Tillman's legacy.
"The way Pat lived – the Sun Devil Way – is something we teach our team about every day," head coach Todd Graham said. "Now the final thing they will see before taking the field is the embodiment of everything he stood for – and everything we hope to emulate and accomplish."
The tunnel was redone ahead of ASU's season opener Thursday against Sacramento State.

Last week, I went over the major advantages and differences among the various types of Individual Retirement Accounts (IRAs) available to investors. But today I want to dig a little deeper into one particular aspect of Roth IRAs that makes them really attractive to anyone planning on leaving money to an heir.
It all starts with something I said in my last column — namely, that unlike their traditional brethren, Roth IRAs do not require you to EVER begin taking minimum distributions. In fact, as long as you keep earning income (or alimony) you can continue contributing.
What that means is that you can leave every single penny of your Roth IRA intact for your designated beneficiary. That alone is a huge plus!
Even better is the fact that your heir will face a choice upon your death: Either withdraw the whole amount by December 31 of the fifth year after your death OR begin receiving minimum distributions based on his or her life expectancy.
Under either choice, all the proceeds should be tax-free (with the exception of estate taxes).
Here's an example:
Say you leave your Roth IRA to your son who is 53 at the time of your death.
If your son decides to take minimum distributions, the IRS will use its actuarial tables (available in IRS pub. 590) to figure out roughly how long your son is likely to live.
Then the IRS will divide the value of your account by that number (31.4 in 2011) to arrive at a dollar amount for yearly distribution.
In the case of a $100,000 portfolio, your son would have to withdraw $3,289 in 2012 ($100,000/30.4).
Important: While your son is taking those minimum distributions, the value of his inherited investment account can continue to rise!
I'm sure you can see the appeal of this approach, especially since you're well aware of the effect of compounding.
Think about what would happen if you loaded up that Roth IRA with stocks that steadily increase their dividends. And imagine what would happen if you were reinvesting those dividends back into more shares!
You'd be combining complete tax efficiency with multiple layers of compounding interest. Heck, with enough time, you could leave behind a nest egg that was rising FASTER than the rate of your heir's mandatory withdrawals!
That brings me to another point. While this strategy would be great for a son or daughter, it would be even better for a grandchild or a great-grandchild.
After all, those minimum distributions are calculated on the recipient's age. The lower the number, the less money coming out every year and thus the longer the account can grow.
Obviously, the lynchpin in this whole plan is absolute agreement on the part of the original account owner and the beneficiary on opting for taking the minimum distribution route.
But if you have an heir you can count on, I consider this one of the smartest moves you can possibly make.
If you're eligible for a Roth IRA, take advantage. And even if most of your money is currently in a regular IRA account, it may very well be worth your while to roll it into a Roth if this particular wealth transfer strategy appeals to you.
Although you'll take a big tax hit in the process, if your goal is leaving that money to someone far younger, the Roth could still prove the smarter wealth builder over the long haul. That's definitely something to be thankful for!
Best wishes,
Nilus Mattive

|It's amazing how true that
It's amazing how true that is. Every big play has you waiting for the flag. One strategy PSU tried, and it paid off in at least one case, was to just heave it up and hope for a flag. That's where the ref's experience (assuming some reasonable training) has to come into play for the benefit of the game. They failed miserably.
On the kick returns, why so much focus on meaningless holds so far from the action as to be irrelevant?

|On the subject of penalties
On the subject of penalties there was one really hilarious commentary by Huard today. On the Henry holding call he actually rationalized it by saying that, by occupying two blockers (who were in fact double teaming him), Henry prevented one of those blockers from blocking the guy who sacked the QB. For a while after that I couldn't help but keep thinking...wft is this guy doing calling this game? Can't we just get some professional broadcasters?

I still haven't seen the holding on Henry - that was strange. They showed one quick replay and Huard oddly said it was obvious. Okay.
After that the most egregious to me were the PI on Lewis where the receiver actually pushed off, and the "low" block on Chessen that wasn't even low.
The only one where I felt we may have gotten a break was the non-call on Henry for driving Hackenberg to the turf - held my breath a little there.
PSU got handed a lot of cheap breaks in this game and still couldn't do anything.

Did they arrest all four or just the OSU fans in the picture? Sounds like all four were swinging but they're only naming the buckeys. Hilarious.

I'm old. More than any other show "I Dream of Jeannie" still does something really amazing for me. Barbara Eden might still be TV's all time greatest goddess.

Ridiculous but completely predictable. If Saban was doing this stuff you'd see 5 page loving articles on how he had evolved and loosened up. JH is being himself and has to be shot down.

|I'm inclined to give Martin
I'm inclined to give Martin more of a pass. It had been 40 years since Michigan went outside to hire a football coach and I think they just didn't have the institutional experience to handle it. They got the guy everyone else wanted - RR - but weren't aggressive enough in putting everything else into place. Pretty much everyone in the process made mistakes. It was painful but it's all good from here on. The success about to come will only feel that much sweeter for the pain.

Wonder how long it took Urbz - or more likely someone else - to decipher what that chicken scratch actually said. Without the cheat notes I don't think I could have.

In fairness I'm assuming the BTN decides what to call a "classic", not Rutgers.
Also, don't forget what state we're currently getting a few top recruits from. Publicity is good.

If what I just read in the NYT is right the Giants offer could have been rescinded regardless as soon as they found out he had a non-football related injury, so the employee's actions wouldn't have cost JPP anything.
That doesn't it wasn't a stupid and/or illegal thing to do.
