A sheriff's deputy who was shot in the neck and lost his partner 4 years ago this month has been promoted to Major of Administration for the Lenoir County Sheriffs Department.
Ryan Dawson has been a law enforcement officer for 10 years. His entire career has been spent with the Lenoir County Sheriff's Office. Dawson is a third generation deputy sheriff. Back in April of 2009 Dawson and his partner were shot during a shootout. His partner Allen Pearson was killed. Dawson was shot in the neck and saved by Deputy Chris Hill who is now the new sheriff and promoted Dawson to the position of Major of Administration Monday. Dawson says he will use his past to make a better future for the department..
"It's just a reminder to make sure we are always doing the best we can do and one thing I always promised myself. If we didn't learn from things in the past we can never get better. Moving forward now, as Sheriff Hill says, there are changes to be made and good things to come and those are things we will always try to build on and make this office better," said Dawson.
Dawson's new job at the department will be to head the budget and daily operations.

- Deploying mobile and intelligent agents in interconnected e-marketplaces
- Author(s)
- Kowalczyk, Ryszard; Braun, Peter; Mueller, Ingo; Rossak, Wilhelm; Franczyk, Bogdan; Speck, Andreas
- Abstract
- The business trends to trade more complex goods and services in inter-connected e-marketplaces and to use mobile communication channels drive the requirements for the next generation of e-marketplaces including more advanced trading, mobile access and user support capabilities. This paper presents an attempt to address the above requirements by proposing an intelligent mobile agent-based e-marketplace solution called InterMarket that integrates mobile agents and intelligent decision-making agents in e-marketplaces. InterMarket aims at enabling mobile access and automated trading in inter-connected e-marketplaces with an add-on component to an existing commercial e-marketplace platform. The paper presents a general concept and solution of InterMarket, and discusses the proposed approach in the context of related research in mobile e-commerce agents and intelligent agent-mediated e-commerce.

does anyone know how to prune larches we have 3 lovely larches in our garden but they've got really tall and quite spindly. I wondered if we trimmed the side branches if it would encourage more bushy growth. also could we take the top off to limit the height. they must be about 40ft tall. any information would be greatly appreciated
I'm sorry, I don't think larches take kindly to pruning - there are some in the grounds where I work that have been cut back and they look awful, losing all the grace and elegance of their form. I think a larch tree that had it's leading shoot topped would also look awful - larches have such a lovely symmetrical 'feather' shape.
Dead or decaying branches should be taken out in the summer, cutting them off close to the main trunk, but apart from that usual practice is to leave them alone.
I agree, it's very easy to destroy the shape. I think that applies to most conifers.
And I third that - conifers really should be left alone. A neighbour decided to prune some of theirs, and they looked so dreadful that they got rid of them entirely a couple of years later.
Did you see on Country File that Larches are also in trouble. They have had to fell a lot of them in the Forest of Dean. Makes you wonder what will be next.
thanks for all your comments, really don't know what to do now though because our neighbours are complaining the trees are blocking their light. They don't interfere with us as they're at the far end of a very large garden but don't like the neighbours being upset

Many are hopeful for the movie's release.
"There is a silence surrounding stillbirth," said Fran Kane, a Registered Nurse who leads Catholic Health's Footprints on the Heart program for bereaved parents.
"It is a taboo subject. For many, stillbirth is unheard of until it happens to them. Doctors don't talk about it during pregnancy care. Childbirth education classes don't talk about it. Even pregnancy-related books don't mention it. Kind of like, if we don't talk about it, it won't happen. Unfortunately when it does, people are left alone and must search for their own support."
For those who have never experienced a pregnancy loss, the movie reveals the complexity and depth of the loss and can highlight the need to validate the baby who has been lost.
"Parents and families who experience a stillbirth are frequently, if not, always, invalidated and unsupported. They are often not seen as parents because they have no baby to bring home," said Kane.
Movie Delves into Coping with Loss, RelationshipsCreated by filmmaker Sean Hanish, Return to Zero is based on a true story and follows Maggie (Driver) and Aaron (Adelstein) as they struggle to cope with the loss of their baby son just weeks before his due date. Their grief expresses itself in denial, escape, and alcohol use. Aaron's affair with a co-worker propels the couple to separate, but they are reunited when Maggie discovers that she is pregnant again.
"I think the movie will demonstrate the difference in how women and men handle their grief following a stillbirth. The incongruent grief that is often experienced can tear a marriage or relationship apart," said Kane.
An Uncertain Future for Return to ZeroMoviemakers are hopeful that the film will premiere at a film festival in August or September, but its release is yet uncertain.
They have recruited fans from across the country to serve as local leaders and spread the word about the film. These leaders are tasked with acquiring 100 pledges – promises to see the movie during its first weekend of release, if and when it makes it to theaters. More than 2,300 people from over 40 countries have volunteered to be local leaders.
Donations are being accepted, and donations of $250 and above will receive a "thank you" credit in the film.

COLO. SPRINGS - The Sky Sox downed their Major League Affiliate today as they defeated the Colorado Rockies 5-3 on Friday afternoon at Security Service Field in front of a raucous crowd of 6,181 fans. Bobby Keppel picked up the victory after giving up just two runs over five innings while the loss went to Ubaldo Jimenez who gave up four runs on six hits over five innings. Ryan Speier gave up a run in the ninth but held the Rockies in check after that to notch the save.
The Rockies got out to a 2-0 early lead as they plated two runs in the first inning on a Garrett Atkins sac fly and a Matt Holiday RBI single but the Sox battled back to take the lead for good in the fifth.
In the fifth, catcher Alvin Colina led off the inning with a deep home run to left center and Clint Barmes tied the game with a RBI single. Outfielder Seth Smith then delivered a two-run single to center to score two as the Sox took the lead and held on to win. It was the fifth straght victory for the Sox over their Major League affilate and pushed their record to 6-2 against the Rockies since 1993.

So last week I ordered my own ibrik and 4 bags of turkish coffee to make my own turkish coffee (the right way). I got the jumbo sized ibrik so I didn't have to settle for just one of those tiny little cups of turkish coffee.
I make my first batch this morning, it just about completely fills my 24oz. travel mug. I probably had (and drank) about 20 oz. of turkish coffee.
I now want to go outside and run a marathon or two. Maybe a bike ride to Michigan.
OMG....this is waaaaaaaay too much caffeine high. I need to cut the amount back next time.

Having bad morning sickness is actually a good thing.. It means you have high levels of HCG (pregnancy hormone) and that you're less likely to miscarry! I had horrible morning sickness with my 1st and even worse that lasted the entire pregnancy with my 2nd. It helps if I kept some saltine crackers by the bed, and before I even got up I'd munch a few. If it gets too trouble some let your OB know and they can give you a pill for nausea. It helps some.posted 05/17/2011 by Emkaed
You will be just fine. Try to eat little snacks through out the day and not as many large meals. That can help. Try saltine crackers, water, fruits and veggies. Anything that is healthier and in small amounts. Good luck to you and hope your morning sickness doesn't last too long.posted 05/17/2011 by MommaSherman
no u will be ok i didnt have a problem with getting sick im jst never hungry ive lost 25 lbs since i was pregnant do ur best to take ur prenatals and drink milk and fruit juice ( real not concentrate) sometimes u jst have to force urself it sucks but they do need some nutrients make sure ur also drinking lots of water cause dehydration is not good for u or baby but make sure u tell ur doctor there isnt really much u can do they will prob tell u to try and eat something very small every hour or twoposted 05/17/2011 by cece2291
I just wanted to point out that not everyone with high hCG levels has bad morning sickness. Mine are always naturally way above average and I have never had morning sickness. I am sure that is true MOST of the time, but not all of the time.posted 05/18/2011 by MommaSherman

But, that is exactly what some politicians and bureaucrats in America and in other countries have seized on as the evil that must be eliminated or temporarily shut down to keep our economies functioning. For more than 400 years, short-sellers, as opposed to human greed, have been blamed for market meltdowns.
If I were the CEO or a major stock holder of a financial institution that irresponsibly loaded up on financial instruments I didn't understand, I, too, would have been lobbying Securities and Exchange Commission Chairman Christopher Cox to keep the short-sellers away. Short-sellers make money when a stock's price declines. By eliminating one group of speculators, there is a greater chance my stock's price would at least temporarily go higher than it deserves.
Don't be fooled, listen to the people who know and understand how the markets should and do work -- the vast majority think that outlawing short-selling of financial stocks has consequences that will cost all of us. You will never hear Warren Buffet asking that short-sellers be prevented from playing with Berkshire Hathaway stock.
I am not an investments expert, but have been an investor for more than 35 years, and as The Courant's former business editor, I understand the principals of investing. I believe that Cox has been wrong on this issue -- first by taking away critical controls on short-sellers and then temporarily banning it last week.
Let me give you a quick, down and dirty explanation of short-selling: where the investor is betting that a stock will go down instead of up.
Let's say that when Google's stock went over $600 a share a few months ago, you were convinced that the stock was so overvalued it had to come down. So you called your broker and asked to borrow 100 shares of Google stock that the broker was holding for another investor.
You then asked the broker to sell the 100 shares. When Google fell to $550, you bought 100 shares for $55,000, returned them to the broker, and you had made $5,000 profit.
Now if you were wrong, and the stock went up to $650, the broker would have called and demanded that you immediately return the shares. You then had to buy the shares for $65,000, leaving you with a $5,000 loss.
These additional trades provide needed liquidity to the market because the same shares can be sold more than once. But that is not its only virtue.
Short sales act as canaries in mines, warning of poisonous gases, or in stock markets, alerting us to potential bubbles, improper accounting, shoddy merchandise.
If there was a financial instrument that could have permitted investors to short residential housing, the housing bubble might have deflated earlier and with fewer casualties.
There has always been a seedy side to short-selling, when groups of speculators short a company's stock, start false rumors on the trading floor or in the media to depress the company's value and then repurchase the shares, which have fallen in price, before the rumors are debunked.
There were two rules that acted as controls on short-sellers that Cox did away with last year. The first was the uptick rule that required the last shares sold had to be at a higher price than the previous shares before one could sell short, preventing a flood of sell orders when a stock is in trouble. The second rule Cox dumped was the one that required investors to actually borrow the stock before selling it short.
Now, Cox has forbidden short-selling of 799 financial companies until at least Oct. 2.
One can only hope that the ban is lifted soon and legal, proper short-selling will return with right regulation, including the uptick rule and the requirement that a short-seller actually borrow the shares.
Instead of shooting the messenger, the SEC should actually do its job and regulate and monitor short-selling.

Police: Fake cop arrested for 4th time
A man who has been accused in the past of posing as police officer was arrested Friday after authorities said he pulled over a woman in Palm Bay this morning, reports the Orlando Sentinel.
Sean Davis, 21, faces charges of impersonating a police officer and driving while license suspended, Palm Bay Police said.
Davis has three previous arrests for charges related to posing as a police officer, police said.
Authorities said Davis turned on the blue flashing lights on his Saturn sometime around 1 a.m. and pulled over a woman driving her vehicle near Emerson Drive and Lexington Street.
The woman was on the phone with her boyfriend as she was stopped and he later arrived at the scene.
Davis approached her vehicle and told her to show her drivers license, get out of her vehicle and empty her pockets.
When Davis saw the boyfriend arriving, he let the woman go. The victims called 911 and gave authorities information about his vehicle, including a tag number.
Patrol officers responded and pulled over Davis a few minutes later.
"The victims later identified the driver of the vehicle as the suspect who pulled them over,'' police said in a report. "Further investigation revealed Davis was driving without a valid license and a background check showed he was on felony probation for a prior arrest involving impersonating a police officer."

In the Ucan2 program we learn about making casual conversation. This could be at work, or meeting someone in the street, at the shops, or just talking with neighbours. We need to talk to people to increase our local network of people we can speak English with.
Many of the 2Y group have lots of family and friends overseas, not in Australia. Many have friends in Australia who were born overseas. Not many of 2Y students have friends who were born in Australia. Our volunteers are great to have in our program because this gives all our students an opportunity to talk in English to other young people.
We had a great time at the coffee shop on Thursday. We had some conversation cards to give students a way to start conversation. Here are some photographs I took.

Reviews for
Shark Swimathon
Booklist Monthly Selections - #1 February 2001
Gr. 2-4. Like other books in the MathStart series, this presents a mathematical concept in the framework of a story. Here, a shark swim team practices subtraction of two-digit numbers as it tries to reach a goal of 75 laps. The focus is on the subtraction, which gets progressively more difficult as the predictable story goes on. Swordfish Coach Blue explains the process in each example. Perceptive children will note that the swimmers' performance improves with practice and that one shark uses division to determine the number of laps each teammate must still swim. Lynne Cravath's illustrations, in swimming-pool hues, feature amusing details and an interesting assortment of sharks, from twin hammerheads to Tiny, the hair-bowed whale shark. An appendix suggests activities to extend the lesson and includes a list of other books with a subtraction theme. Sharks, sports, and subtraction--a winning combination. ((Reviewed February 1, 2001)) Copyright 2001 Booklist Reviews
Horn Book Guide Reviews 2001 Fall
The Ocean City swim team--six sharks clad in brightly colored bathing suits--struggle to complete enough laps to earn money for swim camp. The question, ""Why do sharks have trouble swimming?"" may cross some readers' minds. However, the math story does neatly weave in real-life applications of tallying totals and subtracting two-digit numbers. Related activities and examples of different subtraction strategies are included. Copyright 2001 Horn Book Guide Reviews
Kirkus Reviews 2000 November #2
paper: 0-06-446735-XPLB: 0-06-028031-XTwo-digit subtraction is the subject of this MathStart picture book, which beats its one-note song slowly and relentlessly. Murphy builds this story, the latest in his series of math fundamentals, around a group of young shark swimmers who have a chance to attend swim camp if they can complete 75 laps among themselves over a week's time. The coach has set up an easel by the pool, tallying their laps and then subtracting them from the running total on the easel. And that, quite simply, is how far Murphy takes the narrative, if such flimsy material can be called a story. There is nothing here to entice any child who is anxious, uninterested, or confused about math to get involved with either the subtraction or the story angle of the book. Murphy might just as well have presented a handful of subtraction problems on each page and forgotten all about the vapid story line, because the only kids who will find interest in these pages are those who really love mathematics, and there isn't enough here for them to chew on to any satisfaction. (Picture book. 7-8) Copyright 2000 Kirkus Reviews
School Library Journal Reviews 2001 March
Gr 1-3-The Ocean City Sharks swim team needs money to attend swim camp. Fortunately, a local bank has promised to send them if the sharks can swim a total of 75 laps by the end of the week. Each day, Coach Blue subtracts the number of laps completed from the total, providing examples of two-digit subtraction. Bright cartoons show a group of enthusiastic sharks carrying book bags and wearing colorful bathing suits. The coach writes the math problems out on a big sign and discusses each new subtraction, allowing readers to follow along and cheer the team on. Regrouping is included, but the concept of changing tens into ones is not fully explained. Still, this entertaining story would work well as a supplement to lessons on two-digit subtraction.-Melinda Piehler, North Tonawanda Public Library, NY Copyright 2001 Cahners Business Information.

JAKKS Pacific Warms Up To Ice Age
JAKKS Pacific Inc. has signed a master toy licensing agreement with Twentieth Century Fox Licensing and Merchandising for the studio's 2002 animated epic ICE AGE. Capitalizing on the film's three main characters -- an acerbic woolly mammoth named Manfred (voiced by Ray Romano), an un-socialized giant sloth named Sid (voiced by John Leguizamo), and a scheming saber-toothed tiger named Diego (voiced by Denis Leary) -- JAKKS Pacific's Flying Colors division will create a full line of toys and merchandise for the digitally animated feature. Included in the Flying Colors line will be plush toys, action figures and playsets, activity kits and lunch boxes. We're thrilled to have leading entertainment toy licensee JAKKS Pacific on board for ICE AGE, said Peter Byrne, executive vice president of Fox Licensing & Merchandising. "We have every confidence that this film and its merchandise will be a huge family hit." Slated for release in the spring of 2002, ICE AGE is a collaborative effort between Academy Award-winning director Chris Wedge and Blue Sky Studios, and Twentieth Century Fox.

A High Point man is being inducted into the International Santa Claus Hall of Fame, 50 years after he first donned the red suit.
The High Point Enterprise reports (http://bit.ly/RbobJx ) that Cliff Snider was among six new inductees announced Friday at the Hall of Fame in Santa Claus, Ind.
The 65-year-old is the first North Carolinian to make the ranks.
Snider is being recognized both for his longevity at portraying jolly ol' St. Nicholas and for emphasizing the spiritual side of Christmas. Snider often promises to pray for children he meets.
Snider's been featured in Guideposts magazine and the Christian TV program "The 700 Club."
He first portrayed Santa in 1962, as a shy, overweight 15-year-old. Snider says he was depressed over his father's death, and the experience transformed him.

LOS ANGELES (AP) — Mr. "SexyBack" performed back-to-back Sunday night.
After Justin Timberlake's performance at the Grammy Awards, the pop star electrified during a 90-minute set at the Hollywood Palladium.
Timberlake sang familiar hits — from "Senorita" to "Rock Your Body" to "My Love" — as well as new, R&B numbers from his anticipated new album. He was easygoing onstage — as if he never left.
Like at the Grammys, Jay-Z joined in for "Suit & Tie." Beyonce was among the VIPs watching on, along with Kelly Rowland, Neil Patrick Harris, Timbaland, Lance Bass and others.
Timberlake apologized to the eager crowd for waiting so long to release new music. His last album was out in 2006.
He said, smiling: "It's going to be a fun year."
Timberlake's new album, "The 2 0/20 Experience," is out March 19.

what's this?
report abuse
At the sake of being banned or black-balled.....WHO is in support of the dumb-fuck we call president? We use that term quite loosely as his approval rating is less than 30% of the voting public. But, HEY! Bill got a blowjob!
I actually LOVED the military...........until I read the UCMJ. And, I have a brother-in-law that's retiring after 20 years in. I'm glad to see him doing so. He lost faith in the reasons we're fighting for. It USED to be about US. But, not so anymore! NOW, it's all about getting paid.
Britain has announced that they're bailing out. Denmark has followed. But, our dumb-ass is still proclaiming that we're winning. How so?
It may be just me.............I'll prolly have the FBI showing up at my door later. lol I'm still wondering why they don't put the effort into securing OUR borders. WHY is the war over there? Shouldn't we be protecting our own way of life? After all, Canada looks quite seductive with National Health Coverage and liberal laws on weed, homesteading and prostitution.
Yet, it's not feasible here. You've got state lotteries that pay millions. But, don't try to run your own crap table! They profit from alcohol BUT, don't make & sell homebrew! Don't smoke weed! BUT, buy their anti-depressants.......which are knock-offs of opiates.
Does anyone see the irony? They're selling us the same shit. It's just that you have to go through the process, and spend the money, to get the same..........well, a lame version of the same. BUT, it's the responsible thing to do!
Oxycontin? Synthetic heroin. Ridolin.....almost coke. Merinol........just like smokin a joint.
Are people stupid or what?
George Bush? A sad, well-paid, dumb-fuck that's only interested in keeping his profits high while using his position to continue a war that's devastating our economy. But, he's making money.............because his stocks are mostly overseas.
What ever happened to people with BALLS? What ever happened to integrity? The masses have spoken but, nobody hears them. FUCK IRAQ! When do we resolve our own issues instead of dumping all of our money over there? Like they respect the very people that shit on our own public opinion?
Just my thought. I wish the hippies and rainbow children were still around. The pacifists suck ass!

I am one of the fools that voted him into office the first time. I did not like how Clinton turned the White House into a Whore House. But what Bush has done to the country is far worse than what Clinton had done. Because of Bush I have gone from being a Rep. to being a Dem. he destroyed my faith in a party I really loved.
What I don't understand is that 30% who think he is doing a good job. Why don't the see what I do. They seem to be blinded by their hatred of people who do not believe what they do. I hate to say this but it is very much like Germany when Hitler was in power.
Bush does not scare me, but that 30% does because it is only a matter of time before 30 becomes 40 becomes 50.
As for the hippies well a lot of them are in that 30% they have shifted their cause. During the sixties their fight was against the wrongs in the world and the establishment. But today they are the establishment and they are still fighting against whatever they precise as wrong with the world. The difference now is they are not fighting for a just cause, they are fighting to prove they are right.

Would anyone on this blog get mad if I said "Lou Dobs" for president? hehehehe!
I admit, I'm a Democrat, have been and always will be but I'm not gonna piss and wind about my beliefs, thats as worse as preaching religion. But due to whats going on, I can take abuse from 30% of the people, as long as 70% of the American people realize that Iraq is another Viet Nam, and it really makes our country look like a bunch of wimps to other hostile countries like Iran for example when the government isn't 100% backing our boy's. My father fought in nam, and I fought in the first gulf war.
I regret we never got Saddam the first time around, but on the other hand even if we did succeed, this situation would of happened at that time also, so it was a prolonged event. The USA can barely police it's boundaries with all the violence it has from drugs and children being kidnapped,raped and killed, to gang wars being made by gangs in L.A. and New York. And as neighbors we can barley get along with ourselves, so policing the world? We are far,far away from that, we must first learn to take care of ourselves then maybe one day when we achieve that, be ready to influence others.Hitler was an evil bastard, but he did take care of Germany first. Ya gotta give the devil his due on that, just my 2 cents! Crow.

Well i have some doubts in understanding some issues:
>Who cares about president sex life? Is it so important?
>You all have been cheated by the invasion of Iraq even that voted in the same president, why do you call him dumb?
>I can't understand how a country which defends freedom only have 2 parties in senate.
>Do you all think bin Laden is the responsible for the world bad economy or the attacks that happens everyday? Why can't the second biggest military in the world can't find him? it's just an old man (with 3 billion dollars given by CIA)
>Why are the Americans placing rocket defense systems in Poland and Check Republic, didn't the cold war ended 16 years ago?
>Why the sudden interest in placing a military center in Africa, will it get the peace for that people? I don't think so...
>Before Iraq war there was a task force with CIA operatives and special forces in Afghanistan trying to catch bin Laden but with Iraq war the force was dismissed, did you knew that?
>Did you knew that a French sniper had bin Laden on his sight in 2003 and the American command (yes allies need "GOD" authorization to intercept or even kill American ghosts... ups terrorists)? The order toked 2h to came and was negative no one was allowed to hurt him, kill him or arrest him. A Reuters documentary can probe this.
>Did you knew that Federal Law Prohibits Any Contact Between U.S. Citizens an Space Aliens. (Title 14, Section 1211 of the Code of Federal Regulations, adopted on July 16, 1969, before the Apollo moon shots), anyone guilty of such contact automatically becomes a wanted criminal to be jailed for one year and fined
$5,000. The NASA administrator is empowered to determine with or without a hearing that a person or object has been "extraterrestrially exposed" and
impose an indeterminate quarantine under armed guard, which could not be broken even by court order.
There is no limit placed on the number of individuals who could thus be
arbitrarily quarantined.
There are very strange things in your country
Mar 23 @ 9:22AM
IMO, this is another Washington run war- a politically run war once again! And in that respect and ONLY that respect, it's another Vietnam-
I won't go on and on about this but after 9/11, the strategy should have been to direct our full capability in clandestine operations, finding and taking out terrorists where ever on this planet we find them, including Saddam and his followers and to HELL what people think of us in other countries. This politically correct bull shit (another Washington stupidity) has got to go, take our gloves off and have at it the right way!
And if a war must be fought, you go in with over whelming force (combined with the technology we possess) and get the job done! General Swartzkoff was quite well aware of this in the Gulf war and is why he was so successful. Let the people who know how to fight a war, fight the war and Washington, just
butt out
Just my 2¢ worth!
Mar 23 @ 10:00AM
I don't like Bush and I sure didn't vote for him. I was very dissapointed that he won. I don't feel what he has done was worth all of the trouble or all of the american lives lost just because he wanted to get Saddam for daddy. Thats how I see it. He started this to get what his daddy didn't. Has anyone even seen any proof of the reasons behind his actions? I haven't although I have stopped reading about it because it was so depressing. I did a paper on the subject actually while in college. " Part of one of the sections of UN Security Council resolution 687. This requires full cooperation with the United Nations inspectors ensuring that Iraq's weapons of mass destruction, delivery, and facilities for manufacturing such weapons are destroyed. Normally when it is determined that governments violate all or part of UN resolutions, any decision about the enforcement is a matter for the UN Security Council as a whole not for any one member of the council.If the U.S can claim the right to invade Iraq due to that country's violation, other Security Council members could logically also claim the right to invade other member states that are also in violation. Take for example; France could claim the right to invade Turkey and Russia could claim the right to invade Israel simply because they are also violating UN Security Council resolutions. "
Just a small part of what I wrote. I may be wrong in my thinking but I don't feel I am and I know I am allowed my opinion. I just think Bush did the wrong thing and I think he should have put more effort into finding Bin Laden instead of Saddam. I personally can't wait untill he is out of office. As for Clinton, well so what he got a BJ and he cheated on his wife. How many men do that everyday? He still brought down our deficit and his wife forgave him. I don't care or want to know thier sex life.
Just my 3 cents....lol....kudos though..good blog...
Mar 23 @ 10:09AM
I see things from a completely different angle, I'm more like one of the "hippies" that you talk about, but I still agree with you on many of these points. Individual freedoms and social responsibility, not profits and wars.
Mar 23 @ 11:26AM
untill we all as US citizens (legal) take the smalll amount of time to write or call our congressman and house reps. and tell them we want presidential executive order privlidges revoked. wher goint to be contully doomed simply because as long as the or any president has EO privlegdes it matter nothing what we the people wan tor even congress or the house demands a president with EO privledges can and at free will choose to do what ever he wantsover. a god like act.
WE the people means nothing as long as the president has EO privledges

I didn't vote for him the second time.
Mar 23 @ 1:16PM
I voted for the fool the second time because I didn't like Kerry. I thought he would do a better job than Kerry could have possibly done but now I look at it like how could Kerry have done wrose.
Mar 23 @ 1:53PM
I was told that two months ago he received a vote of no confidence from congress.
What ever the hell that is. If someone knows kindly tell me.
Now everyone is going to bitch at me for this. I do not vote. The day I can vote FOR someone rather then pick between a pile of pig shit and a pile of horse shit. Then I will vote.

Holts Summit probes air conditioner thefts
Wednesday, October 3, 2012
Investigators with the Holts Summit Police Department (HSPD) are asking for the public's help in solving a string of air conditioning component thefts that have plagued the city over the past few months.
Throughout the months of August and September, at least six north and central Holts Summit residents reported the compressors were stolen out of the outdoor portion of their central air conditioning units at night. HSPD would like community assistance in solving these crimes.
Det. Mark Beardsley, who is heading the investigation, said the combined total value of the parts is $11,000.
"I don't know if they're scrapping them or if they're selling them to private parties," Beardsley said. "That's why I'm asking for the public's help on this."

Tahari Pinstripe Jacket Pant Suit
Donna Smith says...
This suit looks great and it is very slimming. I'm a bit thicker in the middle but my thighs are not so big, so every time I buy pants they are either too tight in the middle and perfect on the legs or look good in the middle but are way too baggy on the thighs. The pants of this suit hide the extra few pounds in the middle very well without being too baggy in other areas. I also love the fabric.
Alexis Infante says...
I love Tahari suits - they fit right off the rack. Beware: only the jacket is lined and that lining isn't as thick as I usually like it but all in all, I'm pleased.
Lindsay Walker says...
This suit is a classic with a twist. The fabric is a nice tight weave and the lining is a zippy navy and white stripe. The pants sit nicely at the waist. They have enough room in the thighs to be comfortable but are slim enough to lenghten the leg. The jacket falls about mid-hip (I'm 5'2") and the waist falls in just the right spot. The jacket collar stands up a bit which is very flattering making the neck look longer. Great details on the jacket include epaluts on the shoulders with button detail, buckles on the sleeves and shingy gold buttons. This suit has enough detail to look hip and updated, while the navy blue is a classic.
Trisha lea Montilla says...
I have purchased many Tahari suits and their fit is really predictable. It was a great value and arrived packaged carefully so it was not wrinkled. This is the first suit I purchased on-line and would not hesitate to order another one.

Renewing/Reknowing the Body
full name / name of organization:
Interdisciplinary Graduate Studies Students Association
contact email:
In Precarious Life, Judith Butler writes that "[t]he body implies mortality, vulnerability, agency; the skin and the flesh expose us to the gaze of others, but also to touch, and to violence, and bodies put us at risk of becoming the agency and instrument of all these as well" (26). While Butler's analysis of the body and its potentialities emerges from considerations of life and its uncertain value, recent scholarship on the body reveals that it is a politically charged space where seemingly fixed concepts of identity, ethics, and ability destabilize from normative discourses. As such, the conference, under the theme of Renewing/Reknowing, will consider ongoing conversations of bodily materiality, agency, and how we respond and/or are called upon to respond to the bodies of others. More specifically, the conference seeks to explore ideas regarding the body and its agency to call into question and expand our current understandings of responsibility, or response-ability, towards others. Our intention is not to reinforce conventional or normative constructions of the body or 'able-body'; rather, we wish to reflect on the body as a densely packed space for thinking about and appreciating inter-human and inter-species relationships, agency and vulnerability.
The Interdisciplinary Graduate Student Association, on behalf of the Faculty of Creative and Critical Studies, invites graduate and upper level undergraduate students to submit short abstracts (250-300 words) for presentations that engage with these issues and related issues from a range of theoretical and disciplinary approaches. Presentations may choose to address the following questions:
1. What does it mean to be a responsible, or response/able, body?
In keeping with the spirit of interdisciplinarity that such questions require, we welcome creative and critical presentations from all disciplines, including papers, performances, and artistic projects Please send your short abstract as an email attachment to email@example.com or email@example.com by February 15 2013. Include with this abstract a brief cover letter that includes your name and contact information. All files must be in .pdf, .rtf., .doc, or .docx format. We also welcome proposals for non-paper based presentations (poster, performance, or other artistic work).

Democratic Ballot Shortages Throughout California Counties
Turns out the ballot shortages that kept 14 polls open till 10pm in California's Alameda County, affected at least four of the state's largest counties. Election officials in Alameda, Contra Costa, San Mateo, and Santa Clara were all scrambling to accommodate crossover Independent voters who could vote in the Democratic contest. The "provisional measures" taken included printing new ballots and asking voters to hand in their sample ballots (their scratch paper, really). Still others had to fill out "blank paper ballots," whatever that means. In Santa Clara County the heavy turnout resulted in a mad rush to photocopy and distribute about 6,000 ballots. (Kinkos is loving the ill-prepared machine that is our voting system.)

John Elway is a draft nerd. At age 52, he could have any job. Car mogul. The governor of Colorado. But believe it or not: Elway has a thing for mock drafts.
"I like doing them," Elway said Monday.
So here Elway is, mapping out strategy for the NFL draft at Broncos headquarters, channeling his inner Mel Kiper Jr. How much emphasis does Elway put on developing his own mock draft to determine which rookie prospect Denver will take at No. 28 in the first round?
"I think that's real important," Elway said. "Because even though you're not going to be able to figure out every scenario going in, there's so many differences of opinion and it's going to be so fluid, it's very important to get there, go through a mock, then at 28 see the four guys that we're comparing and see who we would take out of those four guys. So, all of a sudden if these four guys are here, we've already made that decision."
Here is my guess: The defensive secondary will present the largest number of good choices when the Broncos pick 28th overall, from cornerbacks D.J. Hayden of Houston and Jamar Taylor of Boise State to safeties Jonathan Cyprien of Florida International and Matt Elam of Florida.
The sexier pick for Denver would be Alabama running back Eddie Lacy or Notre Dame linebacker Manti Te'o.
Sorry, but it's hard to conceive that either Lacy or Te'o will hear his named called at No. 28 in the opening round.
The great advantage of picking late in the first round is apparent, but that doesn't make it less important: That is where a championship-caliber football team finds its next generation of stars.
With success comes increased freedom.
To be sure, the Broncos have pressing needs, especially with the departure of defensive end Elvis Dumervil. But Denver does not have a glaring need at quarterback or another essential position, and holes in the roster are what cause bad teams to reach.
Doing the right thing is harder than it sounds for a 6-10 team whose general manager is feeling the heat. Elway, however, has the luxury of actually following through on the sound philosophy of taking the best player available, regardless of position.
"You look at 20, 21, 22, 23 first-round grades probably given out every year. So, when you get past that point, you're looking at second-rounders where those guys are going to have the impact on your team, just not first-round grades," Elway said.
Should West Virginia's Geno Smith and the other quarterbacks in a weak class for NFL-quality passers slide to the back end of the opening round, it could also give Elway leverage in negotiations to trade down and add another draft pick.
While this draft seems to have a scarcity of players with Hall of Fame potential, Elway trusts he can find talent to help the Broncos win the Super Bowl.
As opposed to other amateur draft nerds furiously scribbling first-round mocks, Denver trusts in Elway.
Of course, there two obvious advantages Elway has over Kiper:
1) Championship rings.
2) Better hair.
