"The Achilles' heel for SaaS has been integration with the rest of the enterprise – until now."
SaaS Integration maximizes the Value of Your Applications
Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) allows companies to innovate beyond their legacy enterprise applications without additional IT infrastructure and resources.
Organizations with one or more SaaS applications running usually have numerous existing investments in on-premises software.
As a result, the key to realizing the full potential of your SaaS investment is the ability to integrate your data in the cloud to your on-premise applications and databases.

text: I was heartened to learn about Placer High School bringing the Breaking Down the Walls program to students (Journal, Feb. 3). It is essential for the student community to live in awareness and compassion if harmony is to exist. There is considerable pressure to successfully compete during the high school years academically and in athletics. Social acceptance is also an area of competition but it is more difficult to attain due to a lack of guidelines and marks of achievement. An individual's social life may also be highly impacted by circumstances such as those arising from abuse, drug use, crime, family strife, or death of a loved one. Programs such as Breaking Down the Walls help the students to see the threads of connection amongst themselves, that they are not as different as previously conceived and there are others who share their challenges. These interpersonal connections will bring happiness, strengthen the bonds within the student body and improve the campus culture. Moreover, these students are on the cusp of adulthood and what a better world it could be if they take their place in it with open hearts and a sense of belonging. Robyn Woodall, Auburn

Sylvester Williams is a testament to belief and willpower, to peering over the edge of the future and taking the leap.
When the 303 area code popped up on his cellphone Thursday night, the North Carolina product knew he was about to take another step in what has been an improbable journey to the NFL.
"Once they started talking, I honestly couldn't talk because I was in tears," Williams said. "I was so excited. For me it was like, 'Wow, everything I've worked for, this is what it's come to.' I couldn't talk."
Williams was introduced Friday as the Broncos' first pick of the 2013 draft.
The team's newest defensive tackle wasn't an all-everything player in high school, not even a scholarship player when he arrived at a junior college. He walked away from football after one high school season. He worked in a factory that made parts for truck radiators. And now he is a player the Broncos see as a future starter on their defensive line.
"We're thrilled," said John Elway, the Broncos' executive vice president of football operations. "We've been looking for an anchor on the inside for a long, long time."
Williams made the rounds at the Broncos' Dove Valley headquarters Friday, meeting with team officials and the defensive coaching staff. Williams was briefed on the playbook and told to be prepared to return when the Broncos have their rookies-only camp the second weekend of May.
Williams became the first defensive tackle drafted in the first round by the Broncos since 1997. They selected Trevor Pryce with the 28th pick that year and Pryce played nine seasons in Denver, including the Broncos' back-to-back Super Bowl victories.
Williams was among the players the Broncos brought in for predraft visits.
"Coming here last week on my visit, I knew that I had a really strong connection with these guys and it's somewhere I wanted to be," Williams said. "So when the opportunity came and the Broncos took me, I couldn't even talk because I was so happy to be here."
Williams plays with power and explosiveness, a coveted combination for an interior player on the defensive line. Last season, he made 13½ tackles for loss and finished with six sacks.
The Broncos have signed defensive tackle Terrance Knighton in free agency and resigned Kevin Vickerson to a three-year contract, but Williams will enter the rotation immediately and the expectation is that he eventually will be a starter at one of the two tackle positions.
"I want to come in right now and help this team any way I can," Williams said.
He hit a bump in the road while he was trying to talk to the Broncos on Thursday night. As team officials called to let him know that Denver was going to be his NFL destination, Williams lost cellphone service.
"So I was asking for somebody to give me a phone because I wanted to call them back," Williams said. "I didn't want to not get picked because I couldn't answer the phone. So I was rushing to get a phone and (NFL commissioner Roger Goodell) came up to the podium and said 'Sylvester Williams,' and that was the last thing I heard. My family went crazy and jumped on me. Then I was running around trying to get a phone to call them back."

"Nursing management of the patient with multiple sclerosis." has been saved, and will be accessible from the My NGC page.
Go to My NGC
Alert me when this guideline summary is updated.
This is the current release of the guideline.
Multiple sclerosis (MS)
To offer evidence-based recommendations on nursing activities that have the potential to maximize outcomes for adults with multiple sclerosis (MS)
Patients with multiple sclerosis (MS)
A computerized search of MEDLINE, Cochrane, and the Cumulative Index to Nursing and Allied Health Literature was performed by using multiple sclerosis, symptom, disease management, nursing, and education as keywords. The search was restricted to works in English and adults. The reference lists of identified articles were also searched for additional, relevant references including books, guidelines, and articles.
Not stated
Levels of Evidence Supporting the Recommendations
Class I: Randomized controlled trial (RCT) without significant limitations or meta-analysis.
Class II: RCT with important limitations (e.g., methodological flaws or inconsistent results) or observational studies (e.g., cohort or case-control).
Class III: Qualitative studies, case study, or series.
Class IV: Evidence from reports of expert committees or expert opinion of the guideline panel, standards of care, and clinical protocols.
A panel of nursing experts determined the level of evidence for each study included in the guideline, summarizing the level of evidence for each recommendation (see the "Rating Scheme for the Strength of the Evidence" and the "Rating Scheme for the Strength of the Recommendations" fields).
The Clinical Practice Guidelines recommendations for practice are established based upon the evaluation of the available evidence. Resources and recommendations must describe the best practices that can enable registered nurses (RNs) to provide optimal care for persons with multiple sclerosis (MS).
Levels of Recommendation
Level 1: Recommendations are supported by class I evidence.
Level 2: Recommendations are supported by class II evidence.
Level 3: Recommendations are supported by class III and IV evidence.
Economic Considerations
The guideline underwent peer review by a panel of reviewers listed in the guideline document.
The levels of recommendation (1-3) and the levels of evidence supporting the recommendations (I-IV) are defined at the end of the "Major Recommendations" field.
Definition, Natural History, and Epidemiology of Multiple Sclerosis (MS)
The model of nursing care in MS includes establishing, continuing, and sustaining care along the MS spectrum of new or probable MS, relapsing forms of MS, progressive MS, and advanced MS (Level 3). Nurses should facilitate treatment and symptom management, promote and enhance function, and support a quality of life (QOL) of adults with MS and their family-care partners that is wellness focused (Level 3). Nurses use evidence-based knowledge to determine an effective course of action for MS patients with specific needs (Level 2). Nurses act as advocates to ensure that patients and their family-care partners have access to needed care and assistance in using resources crucial to managing MS (Level 2). Nurses should help patients locate and develop appropriate resources and initiate contacts as needed (Level 2).
Classification of MS
Nurses caring for patients with MS need an understanding of the various types of MS and should be familiar with the typical clinical course of each type in order to:
Immunogenetics and Pathogenesis
Well-designed multidisciplinary research is needed for a more complete understanding of the pathophysiology of MS (Level 3).
Assessment and Diagnostic Process
A comprehensive assessment should be completed, including the following areas: physical, cognitive, sensory, and bowel and bladder function. The baseline functional assessment can be used to compare with future neurologic examinations (Level 2). For assessment of function, frequency of evaluation has not been extensively studied. Nurses should complete an initial assessment of function and monitor on an ongoing basis for any changes in condition (Level 3).
Nurses should familiarize themselves with published and ongoing research efforts in the area of biomarkers for MS disease diagnosis and progression to provide patient education regarding laboratory testing and respond to questions from patients (Level 3).
Disease Management
Management of MS
Nurses need to be aware of the mechanism of action of MS medications to educate and counsel patients about expected benefits and adverse effects of medication therapy (Level 3). Nurses need to be aware of the role of personal patient preference and drug regimen complexity related to tolerance of and willingness to adhere to treatment protocols (Level 2).
Nurses can serve as advocates for MS patients related to ensuring connection with medication support services (Level 2).
Immunotherapies Reveal Aspects of MS
Nurses must be aware of patient responsiveness to therapy and serve as advocates for follow-up with appropriate interdisciplinary team providers (Level 3). Nurses should monitor MS patients for medication-related side effects and use appropriate strategies to manage their manifestations (Level 2).
Clinical Features and Symptom Management
Clinical Features and Sensory Symptoms
The nurse should conduct intermittent assessment for pain, dysthesia, and spasticity (Level 2). Evaluate for the loss of neuroprotective sensation and the potential for pressure ulcer development (i.e., ensure full body assessment; Level 2). Evaluate the patient for triggering and alleviating factors (Level 2). Evaluate the effectiveness of pharmacologic therapies and advocate for evaluation by the interdisciplinary team (Level 1). Provide patient with emotional support and evaluate for anxiety (Level 2). Provide patient and family education related to availability of adjuvant treatment and possible surgical interventions; assess patient's willingness and readiness to incorporate alternative therapies into treatment regimen (Level 3).
Visual and Hearing Impairment
Encourage regular eye examinations (Level 3). Be aware of the potential for hearing changes and assess as needed (Level 3). Provide education regarding the patient's particular visual and hearing symptom experience (Level 3). Support the patient as visual and hearing impairment may reduce overall function (Level 2). Promote safety through education and counseling related to effective lighting, scanning, and environmental modifications (Level 2).
Nurses should be aware of and assess for secondary causes of fatigue to include depression, medication side effects, pain, and sleep disorders (Level 2). Nurses should educate and counsel patients regarding energy conservation strategies, including the role of body temperature control (Level 2). The nurse should be aware of the optimal timing of medication administration to enhance energy level and to avoid interrupting sleep (Level 3).
Impaired Mobility
Identify functional effect of impaired mobility and collaborate with interdisciplinary team members to promote optimal mobility within the patient's limitations (Level 3). Evidence-based treatment interventions for mobility optimization include exercise promotion (Level 1). Educate patient and care partners regarding treatment, therapy recommendations, medications, and support adherence (Level 3). The nurse should encourage safety by reinforcing appropriate and safe use of adaptive equipment and aides (Level 2). Assess for the psychological effect of reduced mobility and/or increased disability (Level 2).
Bladder and Bowel Symptoms
Nurses should work with the patient, care partner, and other members of the interdisciplinary team to develop an appropriate bladder management program (Level 3). Assess all patients for urinary dysfunction and assess effectiveness of treatments or behavioral strategies over time (Level 3). Encourage discussion of symptoms and effect on QOL and role function and assist with coping strategies (Level 3). Assess for infection and assist in management strategies to reduce risk of infection, stone formation, or worsening of neurologic condition (Level 3).
Nurses should work with the patient, care partner, and other members of the interdisciplinary team to develop an appropriate bowel management program (Level 3). Assess all patients for disorders of bowel function and assess effectiveness of treatments or behavioral strategies over time (Level 3). Encourage discussion of symptoms and effect on QOL and role function and assist with coping strategies (Level 3). Assess for effectiveness of management strategies and effectiveness of medications, understanding that bowel interventions may take a long time to become effective and that worsening of symptoms without any relief from strategies may indicate disease progression (Level 3).
Sexual Dysfunction and Reproductive Issues
Nurses must consider MS patients' interest in sexuality and intimacy rather than assume that they are asexual or uninterested (Level 2). Nurses should provide information, education, counseling, and resources about issues related to sexuality, reproductive function, pregnancy, and parenting (Level 3).
Assess the patient regularly for swallowing difficulties (Level 2). Nurses should work with the patient, care partner, and other members of the interdisciplinary team to develop an appropriate dysphagia management program (Level 3). Monitor weight at each visit (Level 3). Educate and counsel the patient and care partner to reinforce safe swallowing practices (Level 3).
Cognitive Dysfunction
Nurses should work with the patient, care partner, and other members of the interdisciplinary team to develop an appropriate cognitive management program and reevaluate on an ongoing basis (Level 3). The nurse should screen for factors that could increase cognitive problems such as medications, sleep disturbance, inadequately treated pain, and other untreated symptoms (Level 2). Nurses need to recognize and acknowledge the distressing nature of cognitive deficits (Level 3). Patients should be provided with verbal and written instructions regarding the need to reduce distractions and implement safety measures (Level 3).
Mood Dysregulation
Nurses should work with the patient, care partner, and other members of the interdisciplinary team to manage depression appropriately (Level 2). Other roles are to assist patients and care partners to adjust to changes involved in living with MS (Level 2); identify the physical, emotional, spiritual, and educational needs of the patient and family (Level 2); reinforce the importance of medication regimen and be aware of medication side effects (Level 2); be alert to cues related to mood changes and treatment outcomes (Level 2); and encourage participation in a regular pattern of exercise to improve mood (Level 1).
Patient and Care Partner Education
Nurses should use an evidence-based and wellness-focused approach to education and counseling to assist patients with MS and their families to adhere to the treatment regimen, manage their symptoms, and cope with their chronic disease (Level 3). The nurse should screen for factors that could influence the ability to learn, such as cognitive difficulties and health literacy issues, and adapt teaching as appropriate (Level 2).
None provided
The type of supporting evidence is identified and graded for each recommendation (see the "Major Recommendations" field).
Appropriate nursing strategies for the management of multiple sclerosis (MS)
Nurses should monitor multiple sclerosis patients for medication-related side effects and use appropriate strategies to manage their manifestations.
An implementation strategy was not provided.

Welcome to a Socialist economy!
posted 2/17/2009 6:09:32 PM |
what's this?
report abuse
This spending bill passed both the house and the senate, and was ready for Obama's signing as of Friday night. If this spending bill (dems call it a stimulus bill) couldn't have waited another day Obama stated last week, then why did he take a 3-4 day vacation to Chicago where he took his wife out to dine on Valentines Day, and didn't leave Chicago till yesterday (or was it today
) to fly to Denver to sign this huge mistake? I swear, how many vacations has this guy taken since he became president? As for carbon footprint, he preaches about responsibility with the environment, and yet he jets off to the Super Bowl, Hawaii, Chicago, and Denver, and he's only been in there for less than a month. I still hear very few people saying give him a chance. For what, to continue screwing up the economy with this Socialism shit? Sorry, but once it's set in motion and given the next four years of this crap, it will be years and years before anyone of us can undo this.
My question for you all who did not support this two weeks ago when I asked this is, did you change your mind in wanting this 787 billion spending bill to pass?

How much inflation will this continued and expanding deficit spending cause in the coming years> How much of the savings of the middle class will be destroyed. How much will our children pay for our generations's mistakes. What will interest rates be in two years when the Fed is contonted by stagnation and inflation. Jimmy Carter anyone.
Feb 17 @ 6:38PM
very bad idea.
I I just don't see how this is going to work without him eventually spending us into oblivion.
Feb 17 @ 6:48PM
Most of it I like, some parts I am neutral on, and others I think are are funds best appropriated in other ways.
Socialist...that sounds like the rhetoric that the Herbert Hoover fans said about the New Deal.
People need jobs. If they work; they pay taxes, they can pay bills, keep their home and contribute to economy.
One thing this package will do is jump start highway construction. In states like mine that have seen considerable growth, that will be a big improvement as road and bridge repair has been on the back burner for years due to funding.
One thing I don't like is tax credits for insulating homes and buying energy efficient appliances. That only benefits some home owners, it does nothing for renters. Plus most major appliances are manufactured outside of the US and the ones that qualify for the credits are too expensive for people of modest means.
As the whether this works and if so, to what extent, will take a while to see. It will be six months before results can be tracked. If people are working, we'll know it.
The other side of the coin is much simpler and clear, we can certainly look back over the last two years and see what didn't work.
Feb 17 @ 6:57PM
One thing this package will do is jump start highway construction.
Won't this take about three years for this? And where else in the bill is it suppose to create jobs? Most of what I see is tax and spend in it.
Feb 17 @ 7:46PM
Here is a
map with the number of jobs projected to be created in each state.
You can run your mouse over a state for the number. You can also click on the unemployment rate and the map changes to that data.
Won't this take about three years for this?
No, most states have these projects all lined out already. They have been for years but funding has left them on the back burner. They should be able to ramp up quickly. Now as to how long it takes to get a road done, that takes years, but that is cool as the people working on it will be working for years.
And where else in the bill is it suppose to create jobs?
I am sure we will find out. The thing is like 11,000 pages

But, HELLO!!

HELLO...... in MY state.... Not so much the one Bruce is in......
It will pay plenty of Mexican Nationals, $$ to send back to Mexico.
Thank you socialisim.
Feb 17 @ 9:11PM
This is coincidental. I just got this email from the president. There is a link in it that shows where the money goes. Another thing I would like to say is that this bill has been passed, it is no longer a debate, it is reality. Consequently, bitching and moaning is nothing more than pissing in the wind.
But I do feel we need to understand how this thing is supposed to work and how it is working. It is supposed to be steadily updated so you can see what your tax dollars are doing for you. We'll see. The Web site link has a a lot of links within it and it is quite robust.
Bruce --
Today, I signed the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act into law.
This is a historic step -- the first of many as we work together to climb out of this crisis -- and I want to thank you for your resolve and your support.
You organized thousands of house meetings. You shared your ideas and personal stories. And you informed your friends and neighbors about the need for immediate action. You continue to be a powerful voice for change throughout the country.
The recovery plan will create or save 3.5 million jobs, provide tax cuts for working and middle-class families, and invest in health care and clean energy.
It's a bold plan to address a huge problem, and it will require my vigilance and yours to make sure it's done right.
I've assigned a team of managers to oversee the implementation of the recovery act. We are committed to making sure no dollar is wasted. But accountability begins with you.
That's why my administration has created
, a new website where citizens can track every dollar spent and every job created. We'll invite you and your neighbors to weigh in with comments and questions.
Our progress will also be measured by the tens of thousands of personal stories submitted by people who are struggling to make ends meet. If you haven't already, you can read stories from families all across the country:
Your stories are the heart of this recovery plan, and that's what I'll focus on every day as President.
With your continued support, we'll emerge a stronger and more prosperous nation.
Thank you,
President Barack Obama

I didn't hear anyone calling it socialism when Bush passed his economic stimulus package. But for the record, I think they were both stupid, Bush's and Obama's.

Ya sure you didn't hear anyone calling the bailout for the banks that Paulson (Paulson convinced Bush to sign on to it) was pushing Socialism? That's what I called it late last year....that's what I heard others call it as well. Both of these are socialism as far as I'm concerned.

Obama, friends? Ayers, Wright, Ayer's wife, the ACORN bunch, Oprah, Matthews, Obermann, and the rest of the MSNBC news staff??? Sure ya want to be associated with a colorful group of friends?

why did he take a 3-4 day vacation to Chicago where he took his wife out to dine on Valentines Day
What? Man can't get his "swerve on"?
Although leader of the free world,he's still a man with a wife afterall.
Feb 18 @ 12:08AM

You pose a good question. Actually, the question is whether they want to be associated with me. But if we are aligned, it beats the hell out of being associated with the likes of George W. Bush, Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity, Ann Coulter, Bill O'Reilly, Warren Harding, and Herbert Hoover.
Feb 18 @ 12:12AM
Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity, Ann Coulter,
I think it would be pretty cool to be associated with these three...
Now, that Ann Coulter is pretty HOT and very intelligent!
Feb 18 @ 1:44AM
I will give him my full support and loyalty if he buys me a gold membership so
I can look at the nudie pics!!

If by "intelligent",you mean cunning and able to manipulate people into believing the bile she spews,then yes-- she is "intelligent." Looks-wise,I don't want to look at her for fear of being turned into stone.
Feb 18 @ 3:08AM
Now now, Luna, be nice...
She may have a big mouth, and may be a tad extreme in a few of her beliefs, but for the most part, I agree with a lot of those opinions she holds.
Looks-wise,I don't want to look at her for fear of being turned into stone.
C'mon now, she's not Mudusa. She really is on the attractive side.
Feb 18 @ 8:25AM
Hmmmm, lets see now....8 years ago we had a sudget surplus, now, even before Obama started, we have a huge deficit. This country was run by banks and big business for the past 8 years. Look at how the credit card companies were able to pass rules for unprecidented intrest rate hikes that the people didn't want, but the banks did. Now because of the economy, the companies are raising rates again.
Companies were given tax breaks for shipping jobs over seas, giving jobs to others and not caring about what it would do at home.......shareholder profits were more important than their workers. Now many people are without jobs, since someone else is doing it in another country, so they have a harder time paying their mortgage or spending money in stores, so companies lay off more people, so there are less to buy their product, so more layoffs......Simple economics 101.
Until companies start hiring here in the U.S., this mess will just get worse. Of course, its the ones at the top that make the decisions, and since they are so insulated from the common person, they don't really care, as the profit is more important.
If you did a survey, employee owned businesses / co-ops are doing well - figure out a way to keep going as you don't want to have to let go a co-owner.
Feb 18 @ 8:41AM
What he ^^^^ says!!
Feb 18 @ 9:02AM
Well....I haven't really been paying too much attention to this stimulus stuff lately. I'm sick of hearing about it that it makes my head spin.
Socialism? I don't think it is. I support Obama's decisions 100%....I voted for the guy!
Like Obama said, the policies of the last 8 years have failed and he either does nothing about the economy and/or does the same thing that the Bush administration was doing, which obviously did not work and America does not expect him to do nothing, OR this bill gets passed and the government gives out this money to help get the economy going again. This needs to happen or we are going to go further down into the toilet.
So....which of the lesser of two evils do you want?
Feb 18 @ 10:40AM
The old ways weren't working. The system being used for the last 8 years was broken and now so are many American people who have poured their sweat and lives into building this country. Other countries are now reaping their/our benefits.
We were going further and further into debt with no hope of light at the end of the tunnel. This way there is at least a light. And hope.
Simple economics 101.
Exactly. Sometimes you have to go back to basics and start all over from scratch. With American jobs kept in America.
I support President Obama and believe he's trying to lead this country in the right direction. Back up instead of in the unemployment lines.
Yes, he's been in office less than a month....and he's put that time to good use trying to boost our economy and save this country. And he still found time to spend with his wife and children. Kudos to him.
Sorry, but once it's set in motion and given the next four years of this crap, it will be years and years before anyone of us can undo this.
Undo what? We are already in a postion where no one may be able to undo the crap that has been done in the last few years. Eight years to be more precise.
Feb 18 @ 11:11AM
Well, I was wonder when more of the Obama supporters would come out and post comments.
Undo what? We are already in a postion where no one may be able to undo the crap that has been done in the last few years. Eight years to be more precise.
Doing nothing and letting the economy fix itself was a better option than passing this spending bill.
Socialism? I don't think it is
You're kidding, right? You wrote this with a straight face did ya? lol
Oh, a lot of it is socialism. The healthcare in it, the caping of bonuses of CEO's that's taken the first round of money from the government, the government spending billions on welfare where they want the states to start recruiting more people on the welfare rolls, having congress and the senate start implementing business changes at other companies such as Chrysler and GMC....

Although Griz is at work and can't post his own comment..( on phone with him) He says that sometimes you don't have to be a supporter of someone to see the good in what they are trying to do.
Especially when he is one of those who just took a major paycut to keep his job. More fortunate than a lot of people because he still has a job, but still a massive financial burden to
and deal with.
Doing nothing and letting the economy fix itself was a better option than passing this spending bill.
Fix itself??? Shawn, I'd laugh at that if I didn't think you were serious and honestly believed that.
Wouldn't that be about the same as someone being on a sinking ship and instead of reaching for a life preserver, just sitting there thinking eventually the water would stop coming in and dry up on its own and they would be okay?
My point is Yes, there are companies doing things wrong and they need to fix them.but shutting them down isn't the answer. How many others would be in those welfare lines then? How many empty houses and starving children with no health care? There were way too many bonuses being given out in Wall Street America and I don't feel any of them should have gotten Any bonuses...Be thankful that after they ran a company into the ground that they still even have a job..why the hell do they get thousands of dollars as a bonus for doing a job that they should have been doing right to begin with when they got hired to do the job...
But someone needed to inflate that life preserver and start saving Main Street America peoples jobs and homes. Essentially, their lives.
If I ever wondered before why they say never discuss politics or religion, I've sure learned that lesson now.
Feb 18 @ 12:36PM
Fix itself??? Shawn, I'd laugh at that if I didn't think you were serious and honestly believed that
And you seem to think big government is the answer to this. That right there is laughable. Government is not the solution, it's the problem. Spending us more and more into debt is not the way to go about this. Oh yes, throw money at the problem and it will fix itself is what liberals always think. Waste of money that future generations will never benefit from. Seems like you have blinders on where Obama is concerned. You'll see in the next 4 years how bad this spending bill was to the American people.
Feb 18 @ 1:09PM

Some people don't like labels, and you're probably one of those that don't. I know one thing to be a fact. I'm a conservative republican, and I know most of us conservatives don't agree with this spending bill. I also know that we see things totally different in the political world. We're just going to have to agree to disagree with each other, Treas.
Feb 18 @ 2:02PM
We're just going to have to agree to disagree with each other
So so true.
Sean, do you really think this is going to last 4 years? I give it one year before everything will collaspe. (If that long)
The President just announced his new mortgage plan. If people could only understand what it really means.
The CEO of one of the large banks that was forced to take the federal money just came out and announced the truth in regards to the money.
Barney Frank now having his hands in the Pentagon? Won't this be interesting.
I think I could write an 1100 page thesis on this subject :)

Sean, do you really think this is going to last 4 years? I give it one year before everything will collaspe.
No, Xien, I don't think it'll take up to 4 years for this to happen. I was feeling a little generous when I stated this. I agree with you, it's going to happen a lot sooner with a collaspe.

Three contractors are bidding to fix a broken fence at the White House. One is from Chicago, another is from Tennessee, and the third is from Minnesota.
All three go with a White House official to examine the fence.
The Minnesota contractor takes out a tape measure and does some measuring, then works some figures with a pencil. "Well," he says, "I figure the job will run about $900: $400 for materials, $400 for my crew and $100 profit for me."
The Tennessee contractor also does some measuring and figuring, then says, "I can do this job for $700: $300 for materials, $300 for my crew and $100 profit for me."
The Chicago contractor doesn't measure or figure, but leans over to the White House official and whispers, "$2,700."
The official, incredulous, says, "You didn't even measure like the other guys! How did you come up with such a high figure?"
The Chicago contractor whispers back, "$1000 for me, $1000 for you, and we hire the guy from Tennessee to fix the fence."
"Done!" replies the government official.
And that, my friends, is how the new stimulus plan will work.
Feb 19 @ 11:15PM
Welcome to the Bush economy! repubican'ts are powerless now........shut the fuck up and crawl back in your hole like gw did
Feb 20 @ 12:00AM
Welcome to the Bush economy!
Bush isn't the one that passed and signed this Socialist bill (aka "stimulus bill, aka spending bill). Ole' Barry can continue screwing up the economy and people like you will always bitch about it being Bush's fault no matter what!
Feb 22 @ 7:40PM
Why won't republicans/bush take resposibility for their failed policies? Until they do, voters will continue to reject them at the polling booth........just my opinion. Socialism? Is that the republicans new smear word to replace the word Liberal?? I heard Sarah Palin was going to run for president.........
Feb 22 @ 7:52PM
Look at the stock market. It's reacting to Obama's plan and policies. They know it's a disaster. As for Palin running, she may, but my choice is Newt Gingrich.
Feb 22 @ 8:53PM
I personally wouldn't want to be president now.......bush was an absolute bizmal failure as a president. Has left major problems across the board. The stock market will probably go to 6000 before it gets any better. I predicted a crash a few years ago and took most all of my assets out of the stock market. And one of the bush policies that didnt pass was to do away with social security and let people invest in the stock market
Newt gingrinch? Wasnt he the hypacrit having an affair at the same time he was impeaching clinton for getting a blowjob? What about gomer huckabee pile??
Feb 22 @ 9:06PM
What about gomer huckabee pile??
I don't care for the guy.
As for Bush, he certainly wasn't a good president as far as economics go, but after 911, he did keep America safe. He was also too moderate for me. My favorite president was Reagan, a strong conservative president. I think Newt being a strong conservative republican would do a lot of great things for our country as president.
Feb 23 @ 6:24PM
I never quite understand why people feel the need to inflict their political views on people in non-political social settings.
As I read through this blog and the comments that follow, basically I see Straddle expressing his view that he doesn't like the stimulus, then proceeding to denigrate the views of someone who disagrees with him ("you said that with a straight face").
And yeah, I know, I don't have to read it. Generally I don't. But when there are thousands of sites on the web designed for people to argue politics, I just wonder - why here? Why not find some political message board and do it there?
We get it, Straddle. You don't like Obama. You don't like the stimulus. No need to keep harping on it.
Feb 23 @ 6:50PM
Thanks for your comment, and keeping it clean, Twistandshout.
As I read through this blog and the comments that follow, basically I see Straddle expressing his view that he doesn't like the stimulus, then proceeding to denigrate the views of someone who disagrees with him ("you said that with a straight face").
I really don't think that I denigrated in my comment to my friend in my comment. It was meant as humor on my part when I said that, and I don't think she took it the way you stated (at least I hope she didn't). Some people disagree with each other on political views, and then it does turn into a debate. I do passionately debate others that I disagree with, and anyone that has different political views than me, and they feel the need to comment on my blogs they need to prepare to debate. Most everyone on here knows this. I do try to keep it clean and respectful, especially with friends. As for posting political views here, that sells, and people are interested in politics, well, most people are. People are free to post anything they desire as well, as long as it's not broadcasting what they're looking for, or posting their phone numbers, as well as emails.
Again, thanks for the comment!
Feb 23 @ 7:28PM
As for posting political views here, that sells, and people are interested in politics, well, most people are.
Naw - sex sells. That's what AMD is selling, at any rate.
I like politics too, but I try not to ruin people's good times by pushing my political views in a social setting.
I noticed that the blog you posted on the mortgage package (appears to have been deleted now) ended with one member calling another a dick and saying "fuck you" and you telling another member to stop the name calling. Probably best if it was deleted but it would have been even better not to bring it up in the first place.
When you bring up politics or religion in places where it doesn't belong, people get overheated.
Feb 23 @ 7:33PM
I noticed that the blog you posted on the mortgage package (appears to have been deleted now)
As far as I know it hasn't been deleted. I don't plan on deleting that blog either.
You're right, sex sells. But I like to mix it up some. You're also right about people wanting to come on here to have fun. I'm one of those that do. But same old same old sex blogs can get a little too boring from time to time on here.
Feb 25 @ 7:34PM
I'm a little late on the bandwagon here now, but I figure some straightening out might help. The bill really isn't socialism because socialism implies public control of an entity. The Senate republicans managed to remove most of the controlling elements in the bills, which in this case is really a bad thing. In particular is the CEO pay cap that some seem set against. CEOs in America get paid a far higher wage than any CEO in any other country, and don't tell me it's talent. Our companies are starting to fall behind many foreign competitors. Our CEOs get paid over 300 times more than their floor workers, CEOs in other countries get 90 times a floor workers wage. Now if you think about what that extra 210 times of money can do to to help a company become more competitive, it's pretty clear that huge pay gaps are costing us. Additionally, the CEOs also don't pay nearly as much in taxes as they should on that money, as they use loopholes to avoid doing so. They don't help the economy at all. And in terms of raw percentage, they spend very little of what their earn. A CEO pay gap would have been very helpful. It seems to me that the party of the "Working People" isn't really the republicans, they just dupe the middle class into believing that.
Feb 25 @ 10:46PM
Go complain about it on a web site that makes you pay to be a member, not a free site. You know, go to a web site run by a corporation that suckers you out of your money within the legal limits of a greedy
capitalist society
If that's not enough evidence that we're still in a right-wing capitalist society, how's this? Last December, I was informed that I no longer qualify for health insurance. Go to
other major country in the world; they'll fill you in on how ridiculous that is.
Feb 26 @ 1:28AM
It seems to me that the party of the "Working People" isn't really the republicans, they just dupe the middle class into believing that
Capitalism grows businesses and corporations therefore creating jobs for the working class. Taxes and socialism shrinks the job force to where people lose their jobs. We're quickly on the fast track to socialism under Obama and this congress. To say Republicans are not for the working class is totally ridiculous. Ever have the working class and unions give you your jobs? No, doesn't work that way, it's businesses and corporations that do that the dems penalize with high taxes.
Go complain about it on a web site that makes you pay to be a member, not a free site. You know, go to a web site run by a corporation that suckers you out of your money within the legal limits of a greedy capitalist society
Nope, I'll bitch, complain, and whine about it here!
Furthermore, if you want to live in a socialist country try moving to Venezuela! I'm sure you would love it there...
Feb 28 @ 11:12PM
I ll be honest I m not political, but the new face of capitalism is a socio-capitalistic partnership where private industry makes the gains and the public takes the loses. As stated earlier we had the bank bailout last fall. Bush could have chose not to sign, but he did. No arguing that, I don't care who you say convinced him, he still let it through.
As far as socialism, our society has adopted socialist views for years. We are not, nor ever were purely a free market society. If your not happy it move to another country, don't tell someone else to move. Its obvious that the majority felt that sticking with what "worked" for the past 8 years wasn't going to be good enough.
That's the problem when you have people from parties, when their side doesn't win they sit there and point fingers and complain. If you really cared you could drop your political label and help the other side work through this giant clusterfuck which is our economy.
It could be worse, we could have Reagan. Anyone? Arms for oil? Building an contra army to stop a democratic government so fruit juice ppl could make a better profit. You can do that when your president, but god forbid you get a Bj. Then we'll try to impeach you, even though the people putting you on trial have done the same thing.
Feb 28 @ 11:25PM
It could be worse, we could have Reagan. Anyone?
Oh no you don't! Don't go there. Reagan got us out of the mess that Carter got us into, and the economy was far more worse that this one. I was going to let you have your say until you threw Reagan up the way you did.
You talk about putting party labels aside, and yet you go blast Reagan and talk about Clinton where you think the guy did not illegally (lied under oath). Seems like you really need to learn to practice what you preach. As for us being somewhat of a socialistic country for years, I welcome you to go to such countries as Venezeula, or to other places such as Russia, Sweeden, Canada to name a few. These countries I mention are a lot more socialist than waht our country ever has been. As for moving, I don't see that happening, but our forefathers certainly didn't want any form of socialism in our Republic!
Feb 28 @ 11:54PM
Reagan got us out of the mess that Carter got us into, and the economy was far more worse that this one.
No, Shawn that is not true.
Reagan did get us out of the Carter mess, no argument from me on that at all. President Reagan also renewed pride in the country and foreign policy in his first term. Regardless, of political affiliation, the first term of Ronald Reagan was one of the finest legacies of accomplishment by any American president.
The second term is a different matter, it is a legacy of which the commentator speaks and was written in red ink. George H. Bush had to pay the price for what he termed "voodoo economics" and lost his reelection bid as a result. There was shyster covert actions going on (Oliver North) in Iran/contra. The poster is correct. Reagan did man up and take responsibility for it happening on his watch.
But to say that the economy was worse under Carter than it is now is a fallacy. I know of nobody besides you, including republicans and conservative economists that feels that this morass isn't the worst since the great depression. I will be happy to cite links to conservative economists on this if you like.
There are no disagreements on this point, only in how the crisis should be responded to.
Mar 1 @ 12:24AM
Bruce, again I disagree with you on everything except for Reagan's first term. Reagan's second term wasn't as bad as you make it out to be, but then the senate was taken over by the dems in Jan. 1987, for which some of the spending may have gone up after this. But all in all it wasn't that bad of a second term. Now, as far as the economy being the worst right before Reagan versus now, inflation and unemployment was at all time highs since the great depression. A lot of conservative I know and listen to say pretty much the same thing I say. We're no where like we were 30 years ago as far as bad off. But people who have lost their jobs and homes may disagree since it's happened to them instead of someone else this time. We're not going to see eye to eye on this...
Mar 1 @ 2:20AM
This is socialism for big business, which is fascism. Obama is simply throwing his core supporters a bone by putting the money for the people in the bill. The inflation problem will be like in Argentina between 1999-2001.
By the way, for at least the last 45 years every president of the United States has been a total puppet for the global financial elite.
Barack Obama's approval rating will likely be 20-30% in 2012, but a new puppet Republican will be brought in to act as the savior.
Mar 1 @ 2:32AM
Obama is simply throwing his core supporters a bone by putting the money for the people in the bill.
You got this part right!
Mar 1 @ 2:49PM
My point with Clinton is, he should have never been under oath about his sexual practices. As long as its legal, and I ve yet to see anyone go to jail for adultery, he should have been up there to begin with. No, I m not a dem, I just don't like Reagan. To me he will all ways be involved with the Iran Contra scandal and Oliver North will be the fall guy.
As far as the stimulus bill, there was going to be some sort of bill like this no matter which choice A or B got elected. The only difference is they will tend to favor different things.
There's no point in complaining about it, as I am sure no one here has any effect over it.

"Socialist economy" - Sounds like a regurgitated Rush Limpballs phrase. Do you even know what socialism means? Police and fire departments are socialism. Public school systems are socialism. Japanese and German auto makers have a decided advantage over U.S. auto makers because they have socialized medicine.
Thirty years of trickle-down Reaganomics combined with unregulated capitalism have produced the trillion-dollar deficit President Obama inherited from Dubya. In November, the American people voted in a landslide for a new path. Nobel prize-winning economist Paul Krugman has applauded President Obama's jobs bill, and has argued for even greater stimulus. Now the GOP is simply rooting for Obama to fail, even if failure means dire consequences for most Americans. The republicans only solution offered is more tax cuts for the rich, which is what helped get us the huge deficit in the first place.
Why are you spewing your neo-con propaganda on an sex match site anyway?

You're wrong! Part of that trillion-dollar deficit is what Obama added to it (682 billion) now. And we have way more to come as far as what he's (Obama) going to add to it over the next couple of years.
Nobel prize-winning economist Paul Krugman has applauded President Obama's jobs bill, and has argued for even greater stimulus.
Oh please, the guy who the New York Times publishes is a crazy nut job liberal that loves the idea of socilaism. As far as Nobel prizes, they hand those out to crazy ass liberals like they do with the Oscars and Grammies in Hollywood. So these prizes actually mean nothing today. I'm still shaking my head on a Nobel Peace prize going to Arafat (known terrorist leader who is now dead) years ago.

That's not what I do when I do these type blogs, or any other blogs. I have tried to debate many liberal people, but it seems that that only goes so far when they start getting a little too personal and off topic like what you have done in your last comment. If you can't debate me, then just say so...
Mar 3 @ 6:50PM
You really have no idea what you are talking about. Entirely capitalist economies DO NOT WORK, get it in your head. Entirely socialist economies DO NOT WORK, get that in your head as well.
Trickle down economics work good on paper, not in real life. Communism works well on paper, not in real life. (Communism does not and never has existed, for that matter, except in very small communes)
We need some more socialism in this country because the crap you are preaching only works well on paper for the poor and middle class, the only people to benefit are the wealthy. Someone needs to step in and take care of this imbalance, and hopefully Obama has the balls to correct some of the blunders Republicans keep making.
As far as Obama's vacations are concerned, let's look at the total number of days he spends on vacation over the course of 4 years as opposed to Bush, then be the judge. Do I agree with the stimulus bill? No, but I didn't agree with the bailouts under Bush either, or the waste of money in Iraq fighting a civil war and lining pockets of American contractors.

capitalist economies DO NOT WORK
Oh, so I guess you're saying we're really not a super power country with many opportunities where the world envies us, and our enemies hate us because of our success with the world market/economy. Our capitalistic economy thrives not only for us, but global around the world where most other capitalitic countries benefit from us. If there is a problem with our economy then that effects all of these countries all over the world like dominos. We (USA) are the big boys and game players with the world economy. Where can one go and have as many opportunities for anyone and everyone? Reaganomics worked, it went very well with capitalism, and we were a much more of a thriving country back in the 80's because of this. Capitalism doesn't punish success, while socialism does. Can you tell me any socialist country in the world that thrives today? People around the globe would die for a chance to enter our country with the opportunities we have for everyone here (well, for now anyway). We're a country that's over 200 years old, and yet there are a lot of countries around the world that are thousands of years old, and yet we're the super power because of our economics and freedom. Yeah, so you think capitalism doesn't work huh? There's no question you're a Barry fan, and you can continue following him and his socialistic views. I do have to question your intelligence however!
Mar 3 @ 8:58PM
Yeah, our capitalist economy is REALLY thriving, isn't it? As far as the US being a super power country, the only reason is because we throw more money into defense spending than any other country in the world. You do realize that we are no better protected now than 10 years ago with old weapons, right? Talk about a waste of taxpayers dollars!
How does our economy reward hard work exactly? Do you mean the hardworking retail employee who goes to work every day and makes below a living wage? What happens to him/her when the company they work for decides that those at the top (making huge salaries) don't want to take a paycut AND they don't want to see the shareholders pulling their money out so they institute layoffs? How exactly does hard work pay off in those instances?
Or the hardworking school teacher who makes less than a retail manager? Why is education not as important as a retail business?
As far as praising Reagan is concerned, you do realize that the only people to benefit from his tax cuts were the wealthy, right? The average middle income family ended up paying more and getting less by the time Reagan left office. Add in wages that continued to stagnate (and still do), and you have more proof that trickle down economics ultimately only benefit the rich. Sure, you are creating jobs, lowpaying jobs! But you are creating jobs, and that's all that matters, right? Add in unprecendeted corporate growth which makes it difficult for newly emerging businesses to compete, and you are forcing people to work these jobs just to make it day to day.
Now, I already know where your argument goes, so I am going to state it for your. "GET AN EDUCATION IF YOU DON'T WANT TO WORK A SHIT JOB!" Fuck yeah, EVERYONE use government grants to get an education in whatever field you like, then you can have an overabundance of qualified workers in THOSE fields, which will drive salaries down. Great fucking reasoning! This goes right along with your outlawing abortion fight. "You can always put the child up for adoption." Right? There are currently right at a million abortions performed yearly in the United States. There are just over a million families wanting to adopt. Ban abortion for a year, you have filled that need. What then? Talk about an orphanage explosion. I just hope that all of those kids have red hair and white eyes and can make a living on Broadway.
The point is, Republicans are short sighted and don't understand how things work in the real world. This is not an ideal world (in your eyes) where everyone loves Jesus and only has sex 2 times in their lifetimes in order to have children who plow the field and feed the oxen.
As far as being a Barack supporter, I did not vote for the man. He intrigues me, and I think he has a lot to offer, but he didn't get my vote. Neither did McCain for that matter.
You stated that capitalism rewards success and socialism punishes it. How exactly does that work? You will have to excuse me, I am stupid, so please explain in detail.
Mar 4 @ 9:40AM
Okay, now you're getting into other areas such as abortion and defense. We're the strongest military defense in the whole world, as well as the most prosperous country in the world. We must be doing something right these past 200 plus years in regards to having a capitalist country. I still challenge you to name any country that it better off overall than the United States of America!
Mar 4 @ 12:05PM
I brought up abortion as a frame of reference for how people like you think. YOU brought up the United States being a superpower, not me. I merely responded to your claim.
You have yet to respond to ANYTHING I said regarding the economy, capitalism or socialism. I'm waiting.
Mar 4 @ 12:22PM
And to answer your last question, which does nothing except change the subject and allow you to avoid answering to anything you have stated on here, France, Switzerland, Austria, New Zealand, Denmark. There are 5 countries with higher qualities of living than the United States. How did I come up with them? Google is your friend. How did various sites come up with them? Objective, not subjective comparisons based on statistical facts. They didn't just ask a bunch of uneducated fucks if they thought their country was the best on the planet and mark it down as fact.
Mar 4 @ 12:24PM
Aw, yes, the blog that refused to die!
My sentiments exactly....can we give it a rest already????
Mar 4 @ 3:27PM

You have yet to respond to ANYTHING I said regarding the economy, capitalism or socialism. I'm waiting.
Nice try, hot shot! For one, I did answer your question with how capitalism is so much better than socialism for us (remember the Carter years?). As we start drifting towards socialism we're going to start losing ground like we are now under Barry to where other countries will take the lead in the world economy. But then you're so convinced that countries such as France, Denmark, and Switzerland are so much better than us because they live under socialism status that I'm probably not going to change your mind about capitalism being better than your socialism. I do however disagree with you. You can google whatever you want, but living through current and past experiences in regards to the economic power house that the United States is speaks volumes in itself! You cannot rewrite history, even though you liberals love to try to.
And to answer your question about how socialism punishes the rich, it's simple really. People with money are taxed to death under socialism. It also breeds and rewards laziness in people to where no one wants to work for a living. With this system, opportunities to thrive do not exist. All this does manage to do is continue keeping more people poor. I don't believe in punishing the rich. Who do you think creates jobs out there for people? That's right, the rich with businesses and corporations. Why should we punish them with more taxes and federal guidelines to follow? Government is not the answer, it's the problem as Reagan had stated at one time, and I totally agree with this.
Mar 4 @ 10:29PM
You keep bringing up Carter. Please explain, in depth, as to what you find so repulsive about the state of the United States during those years. Most of your arguments appear to be talking points from Rush and Hannity.
In regard to the rest of your argument, you are assuming I am a pure socialist and a liberal. Please find where I have stated that socialism is the way to go. How much do you know about other developed countries in terms of their labor force? Are you saying that the majority of workers in Socialist countries are lazy? You really need to turn off the tv and radio and pick up some unbiased reading material.
Socialism doesn't always punish the rich, it just makes sure that the rich don't abuse their power and exploit those with less. Unfortunately, that is the situation here in the United States. The gap doesn't lie. Workers have few rights, and the ones who DO have rights are part of unions that are just as corrupt as the people they are in conflict with.
Mar 4 @ 11:31PM
Socialism doesn't always punish the rich, it just makes sure that the rich don't abuse their power and exploit those with less.
This is one of the reasons why I assume that you're a liberal and likes socialism. Not to mention the fact that you hate capitalism.
Mar 4 @ 11:46PM
Socialism... and just what do you call taxation?
Mar 5 @ 2:27AM
Are you people shitting me, I am not a conservative nor a liberal, if I would have to subscribe to a party I would be a centrist. Both parties have good ideas that seldom get put into practice. I come from a long line of military men, from guadalcanal to iraq and all points in between. I love every one of those men that are still around and hold the ones that are not in highest regard.
That being said, I am pissed that private contractors get "no bid contracts" to fill the voids of men that would do what they needed to to if it were asked of them and they had a sincere drive to do what they thought was right. How right is it that a hired mercenary gets paid better to do a job than a man that is doing it for country?
This shit has been fucked up for some time. I had a step father that was on PT boats in veitnam, I respect the man with all my heart but know he will always be fucked up. When I say fucked up, he saw the "swift boat veterans for truth" and got so pissed off I can't begin to describe the way he was.
That "we didn't do anything like that over there" mentality is still running strong. I can tell you growing up in my family, that "we didn't do anything like that over there" shit is shameful. Almost as shameful as spitting on Vietnam vets when they come back home.
Mar 5 @ 2:39AM
I did just realize that I don't have any ladies serving in my family, but do feel I need to subscribe to the ladies that pop rivets for boing, lockheed martin and others and the ladies that take care of business over seas. Thank you same as the men!
Mar 5 @ 8:55AM
Still waiting, tick tock, tick tock. No one said I hate capitalism, put up or shut up Rush wannabe.

IYC Interests:Encourage interest of young people in chemistry
Web Site:
I graduated in Chemistry in 1986, from Facultad de Quimica at UNAM in Mexico City.
I started my carreer working at PPG Mexico, at their resins plant, although for a short period of 7 months. After this first experience working with chemicals, I worked for Goodyear-Oxo Mexico, at the chemicals laboratory, performing analysis to raw materials, and continued to work at the Cure management process for the tire lines.
My next job was 10 years working for Dow Corning Mexico, at different roles in Technical Services for Chemicals and Coatings Industries, later at their plant for the production of emulsions, fluids and sealants, and finally for sales for textiles applications. These 10 years were very fulfilling and interesting, as this gave me an extraordinary opportunity to learn on the uses of silicones in diverse fields. There was unfortunately a restructuring of the business, which led to laying off for my position in sales for textiles.
My next opportunity was with Dynea OY, on the sales for chemicals for oil and gas production and distribution. Worked here for +2 years, and finalized a very interesting process of crude oil dehydration - actually breaking/resolution of water emulsions in heavy crude oil. Moved out of the company for family reasons.
These were all years of keeping learning the chemistry, although on the side of how is it applied to every-day diverse situations. Very nice +12 years of chemistry related professional life.
Now I am still working on Sales, as an Account Exec for the magnet wire industry applications in Mexico. Although this is not direct chemistry related, it has been nice too (+7 years now!).
Chemistry has certainly impacted my life, and make it quite interesting and full.
I'm interested in sharing how chemistry impacts a lot of behind-the-scenes in our lives to younger audiences.

Maybe the language tricked it, or the EXE file that is the UPS patcher resulted in a false reading.
I play it on my HTC Sensation( Android 4.0.3) with Gameboid and I didn´t encounter any problems with SOTS(or any other Hack as well).

Despite all the advances in blade technology, if you don't have a good shaving cream, you're not going to have a good shave. And Proraso doesn't need any improvements. It's as good as it was when first introduced by Italian barbers in the 1930s. The old school masculine packaging is just a bonus.
A collection of rich essences from the 122 unique fragrant oils formulated in the original Kiehl Pharmacy. Choose from ten unisex fragrances like musk, amber, grapefruit or coriander. Each one comes packaged in a simple amber glass apothecary cylinder with a rollerball applicator—ideal for travel.
Ideal for the urban woodsman, this handy hatchet by Cold Steel is both durable tool and a handsome piece to have around the house. The handle is American hickory wood and the blade is dropped forged carbon steel.
Just because it's winter, doesn't mean that they don't need (or wouldn't appreciate) a quality pair of shades. Many of the designs reflect iconic frames from the past while modernizing lines and doing away with unnecessary details. Every element is considered carefully—from the Teflon-coated screws to the polarized lenses. Plus, for every pair sold the company donates a pair of prescription glasses to someone in need.
While called Moonshine, this new cologne doesn't actually smell like the contraband booze. It's decidedly masculine—woodsy, with notes of tobacco leaves and leather and a crisp finish with evergreen and citrus like a good gin. Much like real moonshine, it's crafted in small batches and bottled by hand in Greensboro, North Carolina.
Shockingly sturdy for the value, this wood and stainless steel pocket knife has everything you may need. From a screw driver to a can opener, a file, a bottle opener, a saw, a small pair of scissors, a corkscrew and, of course, a sharp blade as well.
This handsome and handy kit packs all of your shaving essentials into one packable kit. It's also a great way to try out the Art of Shaving's products. Included in this kit: 1 fl oz. pre-shave oil pump, 1.7 fl oz. shaving cream pump, 1 fl oz. after-shave balm and a genuine badger shaving brush.
Cutlery makers Zwilling J.A. Henckels proudly brings precision engineering and quality craftsmanship to grooming gear with this kit that's effective, affordable and portable. Inside the leather case: precision cutting Nail clippers, scissors and a nail file. Perfect for stashing in your desk or dopp kit.
This old school shine box makes polishing your shoes a breeze. The well-crafted cedar box is sturdy and holds all of your shoe conditioning gear—something that guys tend to get more and more of as time goes by.
Stainless steel dive watches are having a moment and for good reason. Sport it to the gym, to the office or to dinner on the weekend. Sleep on it and wear it in the shower the next morning. As durable as it is handsome, this self-winding style will never have to leave his wrist.


text: Home Culture Jonathan Martin Out for the Season He was placed on the Miami Dolphin's non-football-injury list on Saturday. By: Lynette Holloway Posted: Dec. 1 2013 12:41 PM 0 Jonathan Martin Joel Auerbach/Getty Images Miami Dolphins' Jonathan Martin on Saturday was placed on the non-football-injury list, amid a simmering scandal involving teammate Richie Incognito, the Miami Herald reports. That essentially writes him off for the rest of the season. The move comes nearly a month after Martin, the team's starting right tackle, garnered national headlines with explosive charges of harassment by Incognito. NFL-appointed special counsel Ted Wells is investigating Martin's allegations. Incognito, with whom most team members have sided, has been suspended since Nov. 3, after the organization learned of a racially charged voicemail he left for Martin in April. He was not paid for the first two games of his suspension but was paid for last week's game against the Carolina Panthers, and will be paid for Sunday's game against the New York Jets, the Herald reports, citing ESPN. He also will be paid for a maximum of two more games, after which the team must release him or reinstate him. Although Martin has missed four games, the team was obligated to pay him because he remained on its 53-man roster until Saturday. In placing Martin on the non-injury list, the team reportedly pledged to pay his entire $607,466 salary this season, including for all nine games that he will miss. Teams are not required to pay players on the non-football-injury list. Whether Martin returns to the Dolphins next season is up in the air. An associate told the Miami Herald that while he would like to resume playing next season, he might consider playing elsewhere. But it's possible that Stephen Ross, the owner of the Dolphins, and others in the organization might try to convince him to return. Read more at the Miami Herald. Like The Root on Facebook.

Ravens are creatures found in the Mojave Wasteland in 2281.
Ravens in the Mojave wasteland have relatively the same appearance as ravens from before the Great War. They seem to be one of the few creatures to be visually unaffected by radiation.
Ravens in Fallout: New Vegas have distinctive black feathers. They are not considered an enemy and will fly away if the player tries to get near it (approximately 10–15 feet). They can be killed if detected early enough, but there is no associated challenge for this other than Lord Death, I Dismember You, and a few others which are tied to any enemy. They will explode when shot, similiarily how normal NPCs explode when killed and having the Bloody Mess perk.
|Name (Base ID)
- Ravens are common wherever dead or crucified bodies are found, such as Nipton and any other Legion raided site.
- They are more common around civilized areas, becoming more and more scarce the further the player travels from towns and settlements.
- A large number of ravens can be seen around the Big Horn Saloon and the Boulder City ruins surrounding area.
- They can gather around the graves in Goodsprings Cemetery.
- Ravens are the weakest creature in the game, and cannot be targeted by V.A.T.S.
- When killed, they give only one experience point (two with the Swift Learner perk).
- Ravens can't be searched when killed, they simply explode in a burst of blood and feathers upon dying. They are the only creature in the game guaranteed this death without the Bloody Mess perk.
- They appear as a friendly marker on your compass that may remain for a few seconds after it flies off.
- Ravens in the Mojave Wasteland appear to have only two frontal talons on their feet. This is presumably a mistake on the part of the developers.
- With the Animal Friend perk, the ravens might not fly away when you approach them.
- The first raven in the game is seen flying off when exiting Doc Mitchell's house.
- Once a raven is encountered, they will not respawn.
- If one is damaged but not killed (for example, by an explosion nearby) they will register as a red blip on the compass, as a hostile would.
- Despite having a melee damage, and capable of turning 'hostile', ravens will not attack the player, but rather fly away as usual if the player is too close.
Ravens only appear in Fallout: New Vegas.
- ps3 xbox360 Even if the raven is in mid-air, if you hit the area it was originally standing on (a few seconds after it takes off) it will still be killed and "dismembered" even though your hit did not visually make contact. This makes it possible to kill it with melee or unarmed weapons.
- Raven taking off
- Raven flying away
