The article on avoiding Obamacare with a bare-bones plan mentioned the possibility of being liable for the $3000 tax for employees who then used an exchange. Wouldn't any logical employer simply offer a $1500 bonus to any of his low wage worker who did not use the exchanges? Wouldn't all of the existing conditions and incentives lead most of these employees to take that deal?

Mark A. Smith is professor of Political Science and an adjunct professor of Comparative Religion and Communication at the University of Washington. His research focuses on economic and religious groups, ideas, and influences in American politics. In his new book, Secular Faith: How Culture Has Trumped Religion in American Politics, Dr. Smith argues that religion is not nearly the unchanging conservative influence in American politics that we have come to think it is and is best understood as responding to changing political and cultural values rather than shaping them.

War Requiem: An International Musical Experience Comes to the Quad-Cities
News Releases
Music & Entertainment
Written by Mark McLaughlin
Friday, 17 February 2012 15:44
IA/IL QUAD-CITIES – "It is cruel, you know, that music should be so beautiful. It has the beauty of loneliness and of pain: of strength and freedom." That compelling quote comes from Benjamin Britten, the creator of War Requiem, an epic work that addresses the grim reality of war through stirring, beautiful music.
"War Requiem is a large-scale, non-liturgical setting of the Requiem Mass," said Jared Johnson, Marketing Director of the Quad City Symphony Orchestra (QCSO). "It was composed in 1961 and is a timeless masterpiece that holds great social significance in any era. This powerful work will put hundreds of performers on stage including our orchestra, several college choirs, the Minnestota BoyChoir, and even a secondary chamber orchestra from Detmold, Germany."
The War Requiem will be presented 7:30 p.m. Saturday, March 3 at the Adler Theatre, Davenport, IA, and again 2 p.m. Sunday, March 4, at Centennial Hall, Augustana College, Rock Island, IL.
The QCSO, the University of Minnesota School of Music, and the Hochschüle für Musik in Detmold, Germany, under the leadership of QCSO Music Director Mark Russell Smith, have embarked on an international collaboration to perform Britten's War Requiem. This thought-provoking work combines a setting of the Requiem Mass with nine poems by Wilfred Owen, an English poet and World War I soldier.
The War Requiem was written for the 1962 consecration of the newly reconstructed Coventry Cathedral, in Coventry, England, rebuilt after its destruction by the German Air Force during World War II.
A Musical Work of Epic Scale
"The War Requiem is scored for soprano, tenor and baritone soloists, chorus, boys' choir, organ, a full orchestra and a chamber orchestra," said Johnson. To present the work in its full glory, the Quad City Symphony Orchestra production will include the talents of the following individuals and groups:
Mark Russell Smith, Conductor
Caroline Thomas, Soprano
John De Haan, Tenor
Philip Zawisza, Baritone
Chamber Orchestra from Hochschule fur Musik in Detmold, Germany
Karl-Heinz Bloemeke, Chamber Orchestra Conductor
The Minnesota Boychoir
Mark Johnson, Boychoir Conductor
The University of Minnesota Chorale
Kathy Romey, Director
Macalester College Concerti Choir
Matthew Mehaffey, Director
Augustana College Choir
Jon Hurty, Director
Quad City Choral Arts
Jon Hurty, Director
A Life Dedicated to Music
Britten (1913 -1976) was an English composer, conductor, and pianist, as well as a central figure of 20th century British classical music. His first major accomplishment was the 1934 a cappella choral work, A Boy Was Born. Britten gained international fame when his opera, Peter Grimes, premiered in 1945. Other operas by Britten include The Rape of Lucretia, Albert Herring, The Beggar's Opera, Billy Budd, Gloriana, The Turn of the Screw, A Midsummer Night's Dream, and Death in Venice, among others.
War Requiem will be performed in Germany in mid-February and at the University of Minnesota on March 1. The Norwegian Nobel Institute will hold its 23rd annual Nobel Peace Prize Forum in Minnesota from March 1 to 3 to coincide with the University of Minnesota performance. War Requiem will conclude its historic run here in the Quad Cities on March 3 and 4.
For ticket information, call the Quad City Symphony Orchestra Box Office at 563-322-QCSO (7276) or visit
. Members of the military and their families are eligible for free War Requiem tickets through the USO of Illinois.

We have a new deal, NFL channel reports no details yet. Lets sign Bruce!

We have a new deal, NFL channel reports no details yet. Lets sign Bruce!
Yup, just saw it also. This is great news!
Updated: March 8, 2006, 8:46 PM ET
NFL owners approve six-year CBA extensionESPN.com news services
NFL owners have approved a six-year extension of the collective bargaining agreement by a vote of 30-2 Wednesday night.
Buffalo and Cincinnati were the two teams to vote against the proposal, according to ESPN's Chris Mortensen.
ESPNEWS reports that Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones briefly left the owners' meeting shortly before the 8 p.m. deadline the owners set to decide on the extension and told the waiting throng of reporters that owners were "getting close, getting close," but that it would take about "30 minutes" before anything was known. Jones did not offer any other details.
Earlier Wednesday, the NFL moved back the waiver deadline for teams to get below the salary cap from 9 p.m. ET Wednesday to 11 p.m. ET.
Free agency is set to begin at 12:01 a.m. ET Thursday.
How much cap room will we have?
Finally. I was almost ready for another delay.
This Means The Signing Of Bruce Omg Sign Him Now
Im hearing around 28 mil. If true, THATS ALOT OF MONEY!!!Quote:

GRAPEVINE, Texas -- Labor peace was restored to the NFL when the owners agreed to the players' union proposal Wednesday, extending the collective bargaining agreement for six years.
There were no further details on the agreement, including whether it includes expanded revenue sharing.
The vote was 30-2, with Buffalo and Cincinnati, two low-revenue teams, voting against it.
"On behalf of the players, the NFLPA staff and the negotiating team, we are pleased that this process has finally concluded with an agreement," Gene Upshaw, executive director of the NFL Players' Association, said in a statement. "This agreement is not about one side winning or losing. Ultimately, it is about what is best for the players, the owners and the fans of the National Football League.
"Moving forward, this new agreement gives us the opportunity to continue our unprecedented success and growth."
Free agency, put off twice by the protracted negotiations between the owners and players, now will start at 12:01 a.m. Friday.
"It was a good compromise," said Jim Irsay, owner of low-revenue Indianapolis. "We're happy with it -- 30-2 is a good vote."
The agreement concludes weeks of contentious negotiations between the league and the NFL Players' Association. The new extension was expected to add $10 million to the 2006 salary cap, pushing it over $104 million. Without a CBA extension, the 2006 cap would have been $94.5 million.
"The union is delighted," NFLPA attorney Jeffrey Kessler said. "The new CBA is a big leap forward for the players and means a fairer system for all. It also means seven more years of labor peace. Fans can now forget about the lawyers and owners and enjoy football."
Earlier Wednesday, the NFL moved back the waiver deadline for teams to get below the salary cap from 9 p.m. ET Wednesday to 11 p.m. ET.
Had the owners been unable to reach an agreement, it would have put a number of veterans on the street and would have limited the amount of money available for teams to spend in free agency. By reaching a compromise, the league managed to avoid an uncapped year in 2007, which would have allowed some teams to spend almost at will and keep others from spending at all.
The crux of the debate over the last few days has centered on revenue sharing and the disparity between high- and low-income teams. Low-income teams such as Buffalo, Cincinnati and Indianapolis say that high-revenue teams -- Dallas, Washington and Philadelphia, for instance -- should contribute proportionately to the player pool because they can earn far more in non-football income such as advertising and local radio rights.
Those high-revenue teams might contribute only 10 percent of their outside money compared with 50 percent or more for low-revenue teams.
That is great news! They were so far apart I didn't think they would get it done in time. Assuming a revenue sharing agreement was reached, the high income clubs are really going to be giving up alot of money. That would be a hard pill to swallow. If they did, it was for the good of the league. I tip my hat to them. Good job and thanks!
Oh and don't forget that little $10,000,000 cap increase owners! :D
Rams need to put in a phone call to Isaac Bruce right now.
If the Rams done get it done now i will be at a loss for words.It will almost be as bad when they let ED walk over money.Quote:
Rams need to put in a phone call to Isaac Bruce right now.
yeah, I said the same thing Nick, the original post maybe was about the signing of Bruce? You never know, if it wasn't maybe we get another player, and still get bruce, I don't see any reason not to resign him now, if we don't its just totally ridiculous
Great job, what a relief.................
As long as both parties are still talking and free of resentment Isaac should remain a Ram in the next couple of days.
There's room for Bruce...UNLESS....he really does want to test the market. Everybody else has that same extra $10 mil that we have.
As long as he wants to stay here, there shouldn't be a problem arriving at a mutually beneficial number. However, if he wants to go for the gold mine, the extra cap space neither helps nor hurts us.

Social Proof in Action: Why I Give
The Nature Conservancy has taken a lesson from the essential marketing playbook - Influence: The Psychology of Persuasion by Robert Cialdini.
In addition to soliciting donations via their website, they're also asking people to share the motivation behind their giving. This is their way of generating "social proof."
I first learned about the concept of social proof from my BFF Katya Andresen. (She's been writing about it since 2007!)
According to this post on her blog, "social proof is the powerful idea that if we think everyone else is acting in a certain way, we're likely to act that way, too."
Why I Give is a classic example of using things people say about you and your organization (also known as testimonials) to generate more giving.
Again, from Katya, "Quotes from people talking about why they support you are powerful. Other people are often your best messengers."
In addition to demonstrating social proof, Why I Give is also a great way for The Nature Conservancy to:
1) Engage current donors by soliciting and highlighting their feedback; and
2) Do FREE market research to better understand donor motivations for giving.
What are you doing to show prospects that others are giving and they should join in too?!

Matchbox Car Collection Expected To Fetch over $1million
Fans and collectors of Matchbox cars are looking forward to this fall with great anticipation. For on September 16th and 17th, Dr. Scott Gillogly's collection of 3,500 Matchbox cars will be auctioned off in Middlesbrough, U.K. by Vectis Auctioneers.
Dr. Gillogly, who had always been a big fan of these miniature life-like cars as a kid, became an avid collector a few decades ago. However, now in his mid-fifties, he thinks its time to sell them and enjoy the money.
The experts at the auction house, who have dubbed the extensive collection, 'a collectors dream come true', believe that the cars will fetch over $1 million USD.
The reason Matchbox cars, especially some of the older ones are so coveted is because there was only a limited supply of each one.
Very early on, the first manufacturers, Lesney Products realized that if produced in limited quantity, they could become collector's items. Accordingly, only 75 cars of each model were made - Mattel, who bought the company, has continued to follow the same strategy.
What makes Dr. Gillogly's collection even more special is some of the really rare models he has got. One that is expected to fetch over $12,000 USD is model # 13, a Dodge tow truck made for British Petroleum.
When Lesney Products made the first batch, they painted the cab and the boom green and the bed yellow. However, BP didn't like the color scheme and they had to reverse it. Because there are not even 75 of the first batch, these trucks are even more precious than normal Matchbox cars. In addition to the cars, the Doctor also has original boxes, which in some cases could fetch more than the car they house.
So if you are an avid Matchbox car fan, plan on heading out to England this fall - for you'll rarely see a collection this great again - unless one person buys it all.

Learn About Haystack: The Universal Information Client
With desktop access being a popular topic these days, here's research from MIT (an early version of some of the software, a semantic web browser) that might be of interest to some of you.
I haven't had a chance to try out the software yet but I will soon. From the article, "Computer science professor David Karger hopes new software will transform the way people organize and search for information on their computers. The Haystack project, which Karger started in 1995 with former MIT professor Lynn Stein, offers more-intuitive ways of organizing files, far beyond the traditional categories of file name, type, or date." You can find the Haystack overview here. Screenshots here. Download (semantic web browser, an early release) here.

The location of the podcast for the short Flat Learning Action talks we're now having with the Flat Classroom project students and leaders.
A great learning community to find others. Just remember that sometimes teachers are taken in here because of PD and not because they are going to engage. Vet the teachers and take small steps before you jump in and plan a collaboration with someone who hasn't proven themselves as a collaborator.
Here is detailed information and dates for the Flat Classroom certified teacher progra.
The discussion forum for our Flat Classrooms ning has been reorganized to organize projects by grade level. Join in the conversation.
Reading books and sharing information using videoconferencing. Cool Global collaboration sharing mentioned in the Global Education Conference.

In partnership with Elluminate, we are in the process of organizing a free virtual online global education conference to hopefully take place in November of 2010. Our conference strands are *tentatively* set to include: Teachers (professional development, training, etc.), Students (student-led initiatives, exchange programs, service learning etc.), Pedagogy (curriculum, digital citizenship, assessment etc. ), Policy and Leadership (exemplary schools, ICT infrastructure, government initiatives etc.), and Change (peace and social justice, equity, etc.).
If you are interested in joining our mailing list to stay informed of developments, please sign up using this form. We also are looking for people with various expertise and interests related to the following tasks:
- Serving on an international educator advisory board
- Recommending students to serve on a student advisory board
- Presenting a session at this conference
- Facilitating conference sessions in Elluminate
- Volunteering to develop the resource wiki
- Translating conference sessions and materials
- Volunteering to mentor other educators around the topic of developing global collaborative projects. We are seeking people who will partner with less experienced educators to introduce them to this concept.

Pierre Marcolini is a chef not easily satisfied by a victory. After winning the Coupe du Monde de la Pâtisserie (the grand slam of pastries), the Belgian confectionaire simply set his sites on a different dessert: chocolate. Look beyond the flower arrangements, the cherrywood counters, and the marble tiles of his American flagship, and you'll find the truffles (caramel, almond, and Champagne infusions) that helped to earn him a featured spot in Oprah's O magazine. All the chocolates are handmade in Brussels although Marcolini imports the beans from anywhere from Ecuador to Madagascar. If you can stop yourself from relishing some delicacy with a raspberry ganache at the self-service seating, you can take home a customized assortment of chocolates or a sampler like the World Flavors box, which features flavors from seven regions. Colorful marshmallow sticks and handpicked teas are also available.

This version uses real bronze powder - cold cast bronze! me likey. now available on my etsy page : [link]?
its unavailable?
i want it
"Beautiful" skulls are quite hard to find... I like yours because you manage to give the face an "expression" without using (at least obvious) "mimic wrinkles" that shouldn´t be in bones and resist the temptation to create "bad" or "angry" countenances; although nevertheless they look very much somber and menacing...
Am a liitle envious right now.

After the success of The Wages of Fear (le Salaire de la peur) Henri-Georges Clouzot cemented his reputation with his masterpiece, Les Diaboliques, an acknowledged influence on Alfred Hitchcock and Stanley Kubrick among others. Based on a novel by Pierre Boileau and Thomas Narcejac (who also wrote the novel on which HitchcockâAos Vertigo is based), Les Diaboliques tells the story of a sadistic headmaster (Paul Meurisse) who brutalises his wife and mistress (Vera Clouzot and Simone Signoret) and their plot to murder him.

Earth Observing System:
Concentration on Near-Term EOSDIS Development May Jeopardize Long-Term Success

- Full Report:
(202) 512-4800
GAO discussed the National Aeronautics and Space Administration's (NASA) development strategy for the Earth Observing System Data Information System (EOSDIS). GAO noted that: (1) NASA has taken positive steps towards addressing the National Research Council's concerns about EOSDIS; (2) NASA has revamped the system's technical architecture to make it more flexible and accommodating to users' needs and activities; (3) the new system design will allow users to share their research and data products as well as retrieve archived data; (4) NASA has strengthened system management and hired highly qualified people for the project office; (5) NASA needs to better understand and incorporate user needs before deciding on critical system elements; (6) NASA needs to give the regional data centers greater authority, responsibility, and funding, since they better understand the needs of the scientists who will use EOSDIS; (7) NASA knows very little about potential EOSDIS users beyond the earth science community; and (8) NASA needs to focus on more modest near-term system development efforts until advanced software is available and more information is known about expected users and the level of functionality to be provided.

Almost a Candy Bar Recipe
4.5 26
Says Barb Wyman from her kitchen in Hankinson, North Dakota: "Because I love candy bars and marshmallows, this recipe was a cinch to invent—and I've yet to find anyone who doesn't enjoy it! The quick bars make great individually wrapped treats for picnics, lunch boxes or out-the-door snacking. And with all the different layers and flavors, they're sure to please just about everyone."
- 1 tube (16-1/2 ounces) refrigerated chocolate chip cookie dough
- 4 chewy s'mores granola bars, chopped
- 1 package (10 to 11 ounces) butterscotch chips
- 2-1/2 cups miniature marshmallows
- 1 cup chopped walnuts
- 1-1/2 cups miniature pretzels
- 1 package (10 ounces) peanut butter chips
- 3/4 cup light corn syrup
- 1/4 cup butter, cubed
- 1 package (11-1/2 ounces) milk chocolate chips
- Preheat oven to 350°. Let dough stand at room temperature for 5-10 minutes to soften. In a large bowl, combine dough and granola bars. Press into an ungreased 13x9-in. baking pan. Bake, uncovered, 10-12 minutes or until golden brown.
- Sprinkle with butterscotch chips and marshmallows. Bake 3-4 minutes longer or until marshmallows begin to brown. Sprinkle with walnuts; arrange pretzels over the top. In a small saucepan, melt the peanut butter chips, corn syrup and butter; spoon over bars.
- In a microwave, melt chocolate chips; stir until smooth. Spread or drizzle over bars. Refrigerate 1 hour or until firm before cutting. Yield: 3 dozen.

Demand Congress Continue Funding Food Stamps, End Childhood Hunger
Nearly one in four American kids can't count on having enough to eat. You can't see it just by looking, but it lives next door. Hungry kids struggle to concentrate at school, are more likely to have behavior problems, and are more likely to get sick than their well-nourished peers.
Now Congress is considering a budget cut that will put even more children at risk of hunger.
Recently, the House Agriculture Committee indicated that they would consider cuts to the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) over reducing automatic subsidies to farmers.
More than 20 million American children depend on SNAP, or food stamps, to provide adequate nutrition.
In this tough economic time, we shouldn't be making it more difficult for families to feed their children.
Right now, Republican Budget Chairman Paul Ryan is weighing the proposed cuts to SNAP. He needs to hear the public demand that Congress continue funding food stamps at their current level.
Join the No Kid Hungry campaign and take action today. Tell Chairman Ryan that cutting SNAP means he's contributing to the childhood hunger crisis.
No Kid Hungry started this petition with a single signature, and now has 12,487 supporters. Start a petition today to change something you care about.

Ultrafractal 5.04. Done entirely with fractals. 11h rendering.
Wow, the brush strokes and colors used are amazing. The only slight thing I'd try and change is the blending of the Ship's Hull into the seas, right now it looks like it's sitting right on top the sea, instead of through it.
But another one of your great works man.
But another one of your great works man.

I always use rimmel products and this is great. My lashes do look longer.
The wand on this mascara seems to have a tendency to get a bit clogged up however if you have a bit of patience to remove excess product this is a cheap and cheerful mascara.

I am waiting to hear back from my local travel clinic. I will be bringing my LO to a country where yellow fever vax is recommended (not mandatory) when she will be 7 months old. She is curently on normal vax schedule and is and will be ebf. Should, can she take that vax... or is it enough if I have it since I will still be BF ?
I also have to look into the malaria pills... so any experience about it would be great.

This article is about the MUD-related networking protocol. For the recreational drug mCCP, see 1-(3-Chlorophenyl)piperazine. For the computer game forum Miniclip Club Penguin Forums, see Club Penguin.
In computing, MCCP (Mud Client Compression Protocol) is a network protocol that is used in text MUDs for data compression.[1][2]
Specifically, MCCP is used to compress the output text stream sent by a MUD to a MUD client using zlib streaming protocol,[3] in order to reduce bandwidth usage, resulting in a faster connection.[4] MCCP must be implemented on the server side as well as the client side, and negotiated using the Telnet protocol.[5]

It's October and it's Friday, which can only mean it's time for Indie Horror Month to begin! This year we're starting out with another mobile game or at least a game that I played on a mobile device. It's also available on PC, but surprisingly the mobile version is the better experience.
Latest Blog Posts
As I watch Geralt of Rivea get a haircut in The Witcher 3, I can't help but think of the hype that surrounded his hair before the game came out. The graphics card manufacturer Nvidia made a big deal about their new "HairWorks" tech and how it gave long hair a more realistic look and bounce. As I walk out of the barbershop with a clean chin and short hair, I can't help but think, "Well, so much for that." AMD tried to create similar hype for their TressFX hair tech in Tomb Raider, and the result was hair that hovered a few inches over her shoulders and blew in her face with every minor twitch.
I stopped playing the The Witcher 3 a while ago, and every week I tell myself that I'll get back to it. Yet, every week I put it off for other games or other forms of entertainment. It's not that I didn't enjoy it, and this post isn't about the difficulty of going back to old games, but about why I still want to go back. This same thing happened to me with Dragon Age: Inquisition. I stopped playing just after the end of Act 1, but when I stopped, I didn't tell myself I'd go back to it. I didn't want to go back, and I still don't.
I'm one of those people who is genuinely excited for virtual reality gaming, but then I get genuinely excited for any weird new control scheme in gaming, be it a Wiimote, touch screen, analog sticks, pressure sensitive buttons, or any of the other cool and debatably-useful-but-definitely-underutilized controller gimmicks we've seen in the past decade of gaming. I even liked 3D gaming, and I wrote a couple articles several years ago about the unique issues facing 3D games. After finally being able to play some VR games at PAX Prime this year, I think that it's worth comparing and contrasting this new gimmick/hook with that latter gimmick/hook. 3D and VR make for interesting contrasts because they seem to have the exact opposite problem from one another when it comes to selling themselves to a wide audience.
I was never a very outdoorsy kid. I didn't climb trees or jungle gyms. The one time that I tried to jump from the top of a tall slide, I landed in such a way that my knee hit my jaw, and I burst into tears. The one time that I tried to jump from a swing, my shirt got caught in the chain and tore as I leapt away. Yeah, I wasn't a very outdoorsy kid.
I bring this up because it seems the most natural explanation for why I'm so fascinated by climbing in video games. I love climbing in games. It's part of why I always enjoyed Prince of Persia as a kid, and it's one of the central reasons that I fell in love with Assassin's Creed.

I believe my original post mas kinda confusing. I didn't want to ask for
vulnerable versions and their corresponding exploits, but for experiences
regarding the creation of such a laboratory from people with expertise in
the area, I've received flames, of course, which I understand now that I
have re-read my original post. As someone said to me "You're asking for
YOUR job to be done?". The answer is NO. Other people sent me original
ideas, interesting facts about lab creation and setup, team coordination,
etc, and what they Attack Plans where. That kind of information is what
I'm now asking. I'm sorry if someone was offended or touched by what I
asked, which was not what I wanted to do. I wouldn't be on this mailing
list if I couldn't find an exploit by myself ;). I'm on vuln-dev, secprog,
bugtraq and sectools too.
Thank you all, specially to the moderator, I kind person.
