Over the past months, the debate over "gun control" has taken a leap throughout the media; after the sandy hook shooting this trend is more easily observable. The Obama administration is now inching closer and closer to gun restriction and confiscation, but is it a rational move?
Today, out of every 100 Americans, an estimated 88 people own guns; which takes the figures well into the millions of people; yet arguably the vast majority of whom are law-abiding citizens.
In this article we are going to take our usual top 10 focus to a more controversial level; although it may sound irrational to the gun control advocates, we encourage readers to review points made below, which collectively will refute the idea of proposing any gun control or gun confiscation laws and in doing so we hope to inform and educate our readers who may not necessarily have had all the information previously. Nevertheless we invite your thoughts and comments below.
10. More Gun Freedom Means Less Crime
Much like anything other matter in our social life, "freedom" to bear arms leads to more peace and security (and we'll prove it below), it does not necessarily mean that every single person has to have an AR-15 for this to happen but precisely this freedom to bear arms alone guarantees less crime. Statistically speaking, in nearly every city (every community) more gun freedom means and has meant less crime. This is an undeniable, irrefutable and an unquestionable fact that the "anti-gun" media never stop to address.
The example of this is very easily observed in the southern states like Texas, where some of the least restricting gun control laws are prevalent and not so surprisingly they have relatively very low annual violent crime rate.
For example after the city of Kennesaw, Georgia passed a law requiring every home to have a gun, the crime rate dropped by more than 50 percent over the course of the next 23 years.
Also see point 5 for the case for Switzerland's gun control.
The issue of guns and gun control could not any simpler if people only understood the above fact. When we reflect on facts and statistics many of our arguments actually settle by themselves. In this case we can easily refute the notion that views guns as an "evil" piece of machinery, which is thought to be evil in the hands of regular citizenry and good when used and monopolized by the government, the military and criminal gangster mafia.
On the other hand where there is more restrictive gun control laws there is much more crime. States like New York and Illinois have some of the worst crime rates not only in the US but in comparison around the world. The city of Chicago has the most strict gun control laws in the United States yet it has become one the center of overall crime in the US and the deadliest global cities; the harder gun control laws get, the higher crime rate soars. So the question must be asked: has the imposed gun restriction reduced crime? The answer is absolutely not. The murder rate in Chicago was about 17 percent higher in 2012 than it was in 2011, and Chicago.
For any wise reader, who is able of some rational thinking, the above mentioned facts and examples should be enough of an argument to the end this debate, but let's not cease here we have nine more points to cover.
Unlike what the media (ie. people like Peirce Morgan) want to lead you to believe, UK Crime Rates is another primary example in making argument against gun control – England introduced one of the most draconian gun control / ban policies in the western world, thereafter it is routinely on the top two of the most violent countries in the developed world and is significantly a more violent place to than America.
Note: we have to reiterate that by stating "more gun(s) freedom means less crime" some people automatically assume it means that everyone should have a gun. That is not true; When we are talking about gun freedom and less crime, not everyone must have a firearm in order to lower the crime rate. What makes a society safe is the very "Freedom" given to each and every individual to bear arms. This very notion in turn perpetually deters criminals and crazy individuals form committing their criminal act.
9. US Violent Crime Rate on the Decline with More Guns
In recent years, Americans have been buying guns at a record number. This is in spite of the fact that violent crime rate in the US is on a sharp decline according to FBI's very own stats, which is found on its website.
Courtesy of FBI:
"When considering 5- and 10-year trends, the 2011 estimated violent crime total was 15.4 percent below the 2007 level and 15.5 percent below the 2002 level."
US violent crime rate fell from 757.7 per 100,000 in 1992 to 386.3 per 100,000 in 2011. During that same time period, the murder rate fell from 9.3 per 100,000 to 4.7 per 100,000. This was during an era when gun laws in the United States generally became much less restrictive.
So why is such a massive media mobilization and attacks against firearms from the media and the government? Is it because of they are taking advantage of the American people's emotion over rational and Facts, using the recent tragedies? Sandy hook (False Flag)?
After a shooting spree, they always want to take the guns away from the people who didn't do it. I sure as hell wouldn't want to live in a society where the only people allowed guns are the police and the military. – William S. Burroughs
8. The 2nd Amendment: Gun Ownership is Protected by the Constitution
Most anti-gun advocates do not realize that unlike people in many other countries that have had their firearm forcefully taken away, the Second Amendment to the Bill of Rights is an unchangeable and unquestionable authority above the President and the Congress. Others rightly argue that because this is a right to self-defense it is even above the Constitution; a God given right, it should never be taken away from the people regardless.
Let's note that the Founding Fathers were not government elitists or presidents who were elected by corporate interest lobbying millions of dollars funneled to their campaigns. They were exceptionally wise men who had studied the history, governments, cultures and societies that went before them and wanted nothing but the good and prosperity of the people and their republic; that is exactly why they were ready to sacrifice their lives in defense of liberty and freedom from the British Colonialism.
Therefore, any governmental restrictions on guns imposed upon the American citizens is unconstitutional and would literary mean an attack on the Constitution. We have to recognize that the Constitution of the United States has been one of the greatest human rights legislation in history; an exemplary manuscript that gives power to the people over the governments or corporations. It has led a nation into freedom and prosperity; while forcing its government and its branches to remain faithful to its citizens. We have to repeat this: we need to understand that the Constitution as a whole is exactly what gave rise to the greatness, freedom and prosperity of not only America, but many other nations who have mimicked it as an example.
The Second Amendment:
"A well-regulated militia, being necessary to the security of a free state, the right of the people to keep and bear arms, shall not be infringed."
The Founding Fathers were very clear about this:
"Firearms stand next in importance to the Constitution itself. They are the American peoples' liberty teeth and keystone under independence… From the hour the pilgrims landed, to the present day, events, occurrences, and tendencies prove that to ensure peace, security, and happiness, the rifle and pistol are equally indispensable…The very atmosphere of firearms everywhere restrains evil interference – they deserve a place of honor with all that is good." – George Washington – Founding Father and the 1st President of the United States)
"A militia when properly formed are in fact the people themselves… and include all men capable of bearing arms. . . To preserve liberty it is essential that the whole body of people always possess arms… The mind that aims at a select militia, must be influenced by a truly anti-republican principle." – Richard Henry Lee – American Revolutionary Led the American Declaration of Independence
What is the 2nd Amendment and who are the militia?
"Who are the militia? Are they not ourselves? Is it feared, then, that we shall turn our arms each man against his own bosom? Congress shall have no power to disarm the militia. Their swords, and every other terrible implement of the soldier, are the birth-right of an American … The unlimited power of the sword is not in the hands of either the federal or state governments, but where I trust in God it will ever remain, in the hands of the People." – Tench Coxe, 1788.
"The Constitution preserves the advantage of being armed which Americans possess over the people of almost every other nation where the governments are afraid to trust the people with arms." – James Madison – (Founding Father and the 4th President of the United States)
7. Guns Save Numerous Lives by Far and Large
Self defense is the very basic right of each and every individual, not just in the US but around the world people should be able to protect themselves and their families. It is easy to see the lives supposedly lost to "bad guns" through the corporate controlled and bias media, but do we ever see literally thousands of other lives saves buy firearm protection.
Pearl High School, Mississippi: This incident began the morning of Oct. 1, 1997, when 16-year-old student Luke Windham entered the school with a rifle. Wearing only an orange jumpsuit and a trench coat and making no effort to hide his weapon, he initially entered the school and shot and killed two students, injuring seven others. He was stopped by assistant principal Joel Myrick, who retrieved a .45 cal. handgun from the glove box of his truck."I've always kept a gun in the truck just in case something like this ever happened," said Myrick at the time, who went on to become principal of Corinth High School, Corinth, Miss.
Criminologist Gary Kleck estimates that 2.5 million Americans use guns to defend themselves each year. "Out of that number, 400,000 believe that but for their firearms, they would have been dead," – columnist Larry Elder wrote in July, following the shooting tragedy at the premier of the latest Batman movie in Aurora, Colo.
"We know from Census Bureau surveys that something beyond 100,000 uses of guns for self-defense occur every year," – Professor Emeritus James Q. Wilson, a public policy expert at the University of California-Los Angeles.
"We know from smaller surveys of a commercial nature that the number may be as high as two-and-a-half or three million. We don't know what the right number is, but whatever the right number is, it's not a trivial number."
It is reported that more than 200,000 women use guns in the US for protections from rappers, robbers and thugs. Now the question is this: are we going to take that away from the bit by bit, bullet by bullet through restrictions and legislation after legislation?
See here for many more cases of saved by the gun reported here.
6. Banning Guns Does Not Mean Criminals Won't Get Them
"If guns are outlawed only outlawed will have guns"
It is foolish to assume that any type gun control proposition would mean criminals would turn their guns in or would not access guns. As a matter of fact they will more easily monopolize guns in a nation where guns were previously an individual right; gun sales and trafficking will most assuredly become easier only for criminals. Again, historical examples in banning drugs and alcohol point to this very fact. Simply look at the mess the "War on Drugs" has become in America. Gun control only means that the guns will be taken out of the hands of million law-abiding American, most of whom use them for protection, most of whom have never even shot a live being never mind a human, and they go right into the hands of the criminals. While criminals will never turn their guns in, it is always the regular citizenry who will be left defenseless.
For example Mexico imposes some of the most strict gun control laws, yet over 50,000 people die in the hands of criminal on yearly basis.
Another great example is the gun control laws introduced in Australia, which caused a massive spike in nearly every crime rate category.
Australian gun owners warned American's over a decade ago. Watch the video here.
5. Switzerland: A Low Crime, High Gun Ownership Modern Country
The gun example of the country of Switzerland is so great and telling that we had to make it as a single point in our top 10 gun freedom list. The Swiss government not only does NOT impose any gun restrictions on their population but they literary demands that every household have a gun. And did you know that the Swiss government actually trains every adult on guns when they purchase a weapon.
So how do crime rates fair in Switzerland?
With all the guns available in the hands the Swiss people and based on the points above it should be an easy guess. Switzerland is the safest country in the modern world; one of the safest in the world.
4. Knives and Bats Kill More People: Guns are also Inanimate Objects
It is yet another evidence against any gun control laws that bats, knives and other inanimate objects are the cause for the loss of many more lives than the use of guns. Therefore it is absolutely irrational to impose any type of gun control on the population.
Statistically Americans are more likely to be killed by a baseball bat than a rifle. But that is besides the point that an inanimate object does not kill, it is a criminal that kills.
"To blame a gun for man's decision is to foolishly attribute free will to an inanimate object."
3. Dangerous Psychiatric Drugs Not the Inanimate Guns
In almost every shooting there has been another undeniable trend; every single one of the recent crazed shooters have been one some sort of psychiatric mind altering drugs promoted and sponsored by the corrupt media. This trend is most noticeable in the Aurora massacre, Colorado and Sandy Hook shooting. It is astonishing how the corporate media quickly points figures at the guns but not the crazed individuals who has been having his brained chewed by these dangerous drugs, which most TV stations proudly sponsor.
PROOF: Nearly every major school shooter has been on prescriptions drugs (watch).
2. Governments Cannot Help the Victims
Many still are under the delusion that if guns are confiscated government will protect them against criminals. Again, case after case historically we have witnessed that not to be true. When a government strips the regular citizenry from their right to defend themselves, they will almost always put innocents directly into the lion's den;- defenseless. Most 911 emergency calls are responded no quicker than 5 minutes. An insane criminal (on dangerous anti-represented and other mental drugs of course) in most cases will have finished his dirty act in less than a minute, or at least caused enough damage to make it an unfortunate tragedy.
Emergency is almost always late (watch).
A very clear and convincing example of this has become evident in Australia.
Let's watch it again:
1. Defense against a Tyrannical Government
One of the greatest and most widely misunderstood facts about the Second Amendment is that some still tend to think that it was including for "hunting". The Second Amendment was NOT put in the Bill of Rights for "Duck Hunting"; the Second Amendment gives the regular citizenry the right to defend themselves, against thugs and criminals but more importantly it was put firmly in place by the wise founding fathers to protect the people against the rise of any tyrannical government; whether a single dictator, a government tainted by lobbyists, a government directed by corporate interest of banks and financiers.
It is important to realize that every tyrant in our recent history aimed to
Recent history is filled with many chilling examples over and over again; where they take guns, state imposed tyranny brews shortly. Millions of innocent people have fall prey to their government, in the biggest cause of human lives called Democide.
- In 1929, the Soviet Union established gun control. From 1929 to 1953, about 20 million dissidents, unable to defend themselves, were rounded up and exterminated.
- In 1911, Turkey established gun control. From 1915 to 1917, 1.5 million Armenians under Turkish rule, unable to defend themselves, were rounded up and exterminated.
- In 1938 Germany established gun control. From 1939 to 1945, a total of 13 million innocent Jews and others who were unable to defend themselves were rounded up and exterminated.
- In 1935 China established gun control. From 1948 to 1952, 20 million political dissidents, unable to defend themselves were rounded up and exterminated
- In 1964 Guatemala established gun control. From 1964 to 1981, 100,000 Mayan Indians, unable to defend themselves, were rounded up and exterminated.
- In 1970 Uganda established gun control. From 1971 to 1979, 300,000 Christians, unable to defend themselves, were rounded up and exterminated.
- In 1956 Cambodia established gun control. From 1975 to 1977, one million educated people, unable to defend themselves, were rounded up and exterminated.
- Defenseless people rounded up and exterminated in the 20th Century because of gun control: 56 million.

10. "Guard with jealous attention the public liberty. Suspect everyone who approaches that jewel. Unfortunately, nothing will preserve it but downright force. Whenever you give up that force, you are inevitably ruined." – Patrick Henry – Founding Father
9. "The right of the citizens to bear arms is just one more guarantee against arbitrary government, one more safeguard against a tyranny which now appears remote in America, but which historically has proved to be always possible." – Senator Hubert Humphrey
8. "Arms discourage and keep the invader and plunderer in awe, and preserve order in the world as well as property… Horrid mischief would ensue were the law-abiding deprived of the use of them." – Thomas Paine (American Revolutionary)
7. "It is the duty of the patriot to protect his country from his government" – Thomas Paine (American Revolutionary)
6. "The very atmosphere of firearms anywhere and everywhere restrains evil interference – they deserve a place of honor with all that's good." – George Washington – Founding Father and the 1st President of the United States)
5. "To preserve liberty, it is essential that the whole body of people always possess arms, and be taught alike, especially when young, how to use them…" – Richard Henry Lee – American Revolutionary who Led the American Declaration of Independence
4. "When governments fear the people, there is liberty. When the people fear the government, there is tyranny. The strongest reason for the people to retain the right to keep and bear arms is, as a last resort, to protect themselves against tyranny in government." – Thomas Jefferson – (Founding Father and 3rd President of the United States)
3. "And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms …." – Thomas Jefferson – (Founding Father and 3rd President of the United States)
2. "To disarm the people is the best and most effective way to enslave them…" – George Mason – (Founding Father of the United States – Most influential in institution of the Bill of Rights)
1. "The beauty of the second amendment is that it will not be needed until they try to take it." –Thomas Jefferson – (Founding Father and the 3rd President of the United States)
The choice is clear here; It is FREEDOM or TYRANNY and of disarmament is the first step twoards tyranny – a recipe for disarmament of the citizens and/or their future children. If the Americans to support the rest of their freedoms they have to stand by and protect their second amendment, even if you as an individual personally does not like guns or does not like to be around them.

Points league strategy
There are many ways to test your fantasy basketball acumen, but head-to-head points leagues provide a truly unique experience. It's essentially the same type of game used in fantasy football. You create a scoring system which gives a certain amount of points for each stat accumulated (e.g., 0.1 for a rebound, 0.25 for a block). The total points generated by the players on your roster are tallied each week, and you get a W or an L based on whether you outscore your weekly opponent. At the end of ...

LAS VEGAS — Mitt Romney won the Nevada Republican caucuses with ease Saturday, building on early support in the Intermountain West and prevailing in a state largely ignored by his GOP rivals.
The battle for a distant second included Ron Paul, the Libertarian-minded congressman from Texas who, like Romney, campaigned hard here, and Arizona Sen. John McCain.
"Today, the people of Nevada voted for change in Washington," Romney said in a statement his campaign released. "For far too long, our leaders have promised to take the action necessary to build a stronger America, and still the people of Nevada and all across this country are waiting. Whether it is reforming health care, making America energy independent or securing the border, the American people have been promised much and are now ready for change.

Most of the GOP candidates neglected Nevada in favor of South Carolina, which held its Republican primary Saturday also.
South Carolina is a state with historical importance for Republicans. No Republican has gone on to win the nomination without winning South Carolina since Ronald Reagan in 1980.
Historical significance aside, South Carolina lost half its 47 delegates when it broke national party rules and moved up its primary. The result: Nevada is worth more delegates, 34 to 24. In such a contested field, the difference may prove important.
"It's his business experience that really draws me to him," Joshua Nielsen said before more than two dozen caucus-goers at Green Valley High School in suburban Henderson on a clear and cool Saturday morning.
Nielsen said he was in college as a business major in Salt Lake City when Romney came in to reform the scandal-plagued 2002 Winter Olympic Games. Even Romney's critics call his restoring the Games to strong footing an accomplishment. The law student has been a supporter ever since.
Romney "does have a message that's resonating in the Mountain West," said Robert Eisinger, a political scientist at Lewis and Clark College in Portland, Ore., and an expert on presidential polling.
Caucus-Goers WantedAre you planning to caucus Feb. 5? Are you an unaffiliated, but politically active voter who wishes you had a say in winnowing the presidential field? Either way, we'd like to hear from you. We're looking for men and women of all political stripes to profile in upcoming stories about election excitement.
- Send us an email.
Eisinger said he was surprised at the success of Paul.
Paul's showing "gives him the ability to perpetuate his campaign" in the continuing dog pile that is the GOP race, Eisinger said.
Romney's trick now, Eisinger said, is to try to use his Nevada victory to catapult him in the upcoming Florida primary, where Romney traveled to Saturday.
Florida also has been where former New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani, on the sidelines so far, hopes to launch his campaign.
Romney, a former Massachusetts governor, campaigned in both Nevada and South Carolina, but he tried to diminish expectations for his showing in the Palmetto State, where conservative Christians are said to be leery of his Mormon faith.
Romney made several trips to Nevada and made campaign stops Friday in Reno and Elko. Two of his five sons, Josh and Matt Romney, also campaigned here and appeared at a post-caucus rally in Vegas to boisterous cheers.
Despite Romney's campaign presence in Nevada, the state's top-tier GOP establishment has remained divided between Romney, McCain, Giuliani and former Tennessee Sen. Fred Thompson, officials said.
With his Silver State win, Romney can say he has strong support in the Intermountain West. He easily won Wyoming this month, and he enjoys backing from Colorado's GOP elite.
California Rep. Duncan Hunter ended his campaign after his poor showing here.
Though McCain should do well in his home state of Arizona, Romney is expected to do well in Utah, with its large Mormon population.
Nevada Mormons turned out for Romney on Saturday, according to exit polls.
"I think the size of (Romney's win) is impressive," said Colorado Republican Party chairman Dick Wadhams. "It makes him viable going into 'tsunami Tuesday,' " or Feb. 5, when more than 20 states hold primaries.

Jan. 29: Florida primary
Jan. 29: Florida primary
At stake: 57 GOP delegates; 0 Democratic delegates. Because Florida broke party rules by moving up its primary, it has been stripped of half its GOP delegates and all its Democratic ones.
Polls show: Republicans unsettled, with John McCain, Rudy Giuliani, Mitt Romney and Mike Huckabee competitive.
2004: George W. Bush won the state with 52 percent in the general election.

4G meaning HSPA+ or LTE? On your iPad if it says 4G its really 3G it should say LTE to get the real high speed.
From what I have read if you are grandfathered into a iPad unlimited plan you will have it for new iPad and get LTE. If you only have 4G as your symbol I would call or go to the store to get LTE working, it might just work with your old SIM but I just upgraded from a 3G/4G phone to a LTE from ATT and they said they needed to activate a new SIM since the old one doesn't work with the new LTE devices.
Anyways I've read that they are unliminted if you are grandfathered into a Unlimited iPad Data Plan. But don't be supprised if in the future they start trottling your service, happed to me went from iPhone unliminted plan to a Samsung LTE device and after 5GB of data they started trottling speed to half a meg download.

Sergio Martinez drops Sergiy Dzinziruk
Updated: March 13, 2011, 9:13 AM ETAssociated Press
MASHANTUCKET, Conn. -- There wasn't a lot of trash talking before the Sergio Martinez-Sergiy Dzinziruk middleweight bout.
That didn't mean that Martinez was without a sense of purpose.
"I had my highest level of motivation ever," Martinez said. "I want to be the best in the world."
Martinez sure looked the part at the MGM Grand at Foxwoods Saturday night.
Martinez stopped Sergiy Dzinziruk in the eighth round, knocking down the Ukrainian middleweight three times ...

I plan to make the perfect storytelling game, this is where I gather my inspiration.
- Johan HerrnsdorfSweden
I want to make the perfect game of storytelling. What this is I am not quite shore of yet, but it will most likely be somewhere in the borderland between Once upon a time and some of the less system-dependent rpgs.Recommend
Some features important to me:
I dont want players to get their own character, but I like the characters to be more important than in Once upon a time.
I dont want a GM.
I want it to be language-independent.
I want to help the players with their inspiration, much like it is done in Once upon a time.
I want to build in some kind of structure to the story, maybe based on the http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monomyth or something similar.
As for right now, I´m gathering inspiration from different sources, and this is where i collect them. Each entry will have a short description on why i´m interested in that particuliar item.
At the moment this is only ment to be played by me, and becouse of that, many games will be listed simply becouse of the bits.
Feel free to add things that might bring me closer to my goal.

Never co-sign a loan. Never, ever ever.
Just minutes ago I got a score watch alert. The auto loan I co-signed for my ex-girlfriend seven years ago went negative. It seems that she missed the very last payment and failed to tell me about it in time. I wish I could go back seven years ago and warn the younger version of me never to co-sign a loan for someone. Especially a girlfriend. I wish I had known back then all the information I know about credit now.
As it stands, my EQ score just plummeted 35 points. I was going to have a clear credit report by the end of the year, but now that is over and done with. My only option for a mortgage is going to be sub-prime and I won't be able to afford the interest. I feel like my dreams have just died.
So, anybody reading this, don't make the mistake I made. Never co-sign for anybody. Never, ever ever.

Current Score: TU: 741 (Discover FICO); EQ: 755 (MyFico) EX: 774 (FAKO)

Look at that beautiful animation..! You know stuff is goin' down when Minato gets angry.
This one is really good! You can see the anger in Minato's eyes! I love it
Awesome ^^
how can i get eyes like that?
...by killing your own brother...but if you're an only child convince your parents to adopt one then kill him. And if your parents ask what on earth you were thinking tell them you were just trying to get an eternal mangekyo sharingan.
Nice... You can kind of pretend Naruto is the one using the Sharingan, XD It does look really cool though, smooth, detailed, colorful. I like it.

Michael Schaffer is New Editor of Washington City Paper
Life is coming full circle for best-selling author Michael Schaffer. "The first story I wrote at Washington City Paper, I was living with my parents at the time," he says. "I think I'll be staying with them again during this transition, although I better ask them first."
The 36-year-old D.C. native and City Paper alum, currently living in Philadelphia, was named the paper's new editor on Monday. (Schaffer and his family will be moving back to the D.C. area as soon as he can find a place, or gets sick of riding Megabus, or whichever comes first.)
"I'm sort of over the moon right now," Schaffer tells City Desk. "City Paper was the first job I ever had and the most fun I've ever had at a job. I cherish the place."
His appointment plugs a nagging gap at the top of the masthead left by former editor Erik Wemple's departure in March.
Schaffer, who previously worked as a reporter and senior editor at the paper from 1997 to 2000 (before slumming it at U.S. News & World Report and, later, the Philadelphia Inquirer), met with editorial staffers over lunch last week, a powwow he described as encouraging.
Schaffer says one early priority will be filling some of the holes caused by a spate of previously announced staff departures, including several City Paper stalwarts, such as managing editor Andrew Beaujon, senior writer Jason Cherkis and Loose Lips columnist Mike DeBonis.
"A lot of really good people," Schaffer says. "But I also see it as an opportunity to bring on board some people who I feel comfortable with, and who the staff feel comfortable with ... who have strengths that I might not have."
In accepting the post, Schaffer will be taking the reins of an almost entirely different beast than the one he left a decade ago. But he's just fine with that.
"In my life, I tend to not believe in going back," Schaffer says. "One of the things that is most exciting to me about it is, even though it is still Washington City Paper and some things are the same, a lot is really different and it's a very different organization that I'm taking over. It's a multi-platform media organization. I'm not one of these nostaglic people who's trapped in the Why Can't Everything Be Just Like It Was in 1984 kind of mentality. I'm really keen on making the paper, as well as the web site, as excellent as they can be."
Herewith, the official press release from company headquarters:
Washington City Paper Welcomes Noted Journalist Home As Editor
(April 26, 2010, Washington, DC) – Michael Schaffer, a DC native, best-selling author, and an editor and writer whose assignments have taken him from Afghanistan to Adams Morgan, has been named editor of the Washington City Paper.
City Paper Publisher Amy Austin, in announcing Schaffer's appointment, called attention to his previous experience in Washington, including three and a half years at the City Paper as a reporter and senior editor from 1997 to 2000.
"Michael honed his journalistic talent at City Paper and then went on to further develop his skills at US News & World Report and the Philadelphia Inquirer," Austin said. "We are so pleased to welcome him home as our editor."
As editor, Schaffer will have overall responsibility for the content of the Washington City Paper, one of the nation's best known urban weeklies, and its website. The City Paper was founded in 1981 as an alternative to the traditional press. It focuses its coverage on life and politics in the nation's capital.
Last year, Schaffer's first book, "One Nation Under Dog," a critically acclaimed examination of America's mania for pets, was published by Henry Holt & Co. Schaffer spent two years on the project, which combines investigative reporting, narrative journalism, and cultural history.
Previously, Schaffer spent four years as a reporter at the Philadelphia Inquirer. In addition to coverage of local politics and corruption, he covered the 2004 Presidential election and spent time in Iraq. Knight-Ridder Newspapers recognized his Iraq coverage with the James K. Batten Excellence Award in 2003
Schaffer joined the Inquirer from US News, where he served on the national and world news staff from 2000 to 2002. He was dispatched to Pakistan for the fall of 2001, and also reported from a dozen US states, covering the 2000 Florida recount, poverty issues, and scandals in the Catholic Church.
Schaffer's freelance work has appeared in Slate, The New Republic, The Daily Beast, The Washington Monthly, The Washington Post, The Boston Globe, New York Press, Obituary Magazine, Philadelphia, and Men's Journal.
"I grew up reading City Paper, and later got my first job in journalism there," Schaffer said. "Back then, we printed a paper weekly; now, we also update a website 24/7. I'm incredibly excited about tackling the new media landscape while using the values I learned here at the start of my career: Curiosity, fearlessness, humor, and a deep knowledge of the city we call home."
Washington City Paper is one of six of America's leading urban weeklies owned by CL Inc. The group also includes the Chicago Reader, Creative Loafing Atlanta, Creative Loafing Tampa, Creative Loafing Charlotte, and Creative Loafing Sarasota. CL Inc.'s holdings also include websites associated with those newspaper properties, the Straight Dope (straightdope.com) and Listen.com sites, and the Digital Advertising Network.

I just found this forum. Do any of you know much about environmentally sensitve lands? (ES) I live near Jacksonville, Florida and a developer is about to build homes on an island. It is a big island, about 200 acres, and dozens of homes are proposed.
I looked up ES zoning in Florida and it says you need 10 acres and 250 feet of width to build a single family residence on an island. ES says that docks, fish camps, wharfs and single family resiences can be built if they have 10 acres.
here seem to be a lot of mangroves on the island. Can the developer trim mangroves for a homesite? Can they cut down oak trees and palms?
What do you think about personal property rights. I do not want to see homes on some islands, but I recognize property rights. If the zoning allows it.....it is OK.
Are there any island development experts in here. My favorite island to fish on is about to get homes on it.
Thank You, Casey

The season finale of Leverage might be airing on Christmas Day, but TNT just gave fans a big lump of coal in their yuletide stockings.
A few short weeks ago, our own Adam Langton published this piece about the speculation then running rampant about the future of TNT drama Leverage. At the time, executive producer Dean Devlin seemed hopeful, but unsure about whether the show would receive a sixth season. Unfortunately for fans, TNT chose to wait until "doomsday" to drop the cancellation axe.
There is one small consolation Leverage viewers can take, despite the bad news. Devlin has previously made it clear that the 77th (and now final) episode will in fact be the series finale as the creative team has always envisioned it. Thankfully Devlin had the foresight to realize the show might not come back, and felt that it wouldn't be right to risk the show ending on a unresolved story thread, as so often happens in TV. Still, I'm sure fans would vastly prefer more all new adventures with Nate Ford and his team instead.
Devlin posted the following on the show's official fan site:
"The Long Goodbye is our final goodbye.
It has been decided today that this Tuesday's episode of Leverage "The Long Goodbye Job" will be the series finale as TNT has decided not to renew the show for a sixth season.
I want to take the opportunity to thank TNT for five amazing seasons and 77 episodes of a show that has been so good to me. I'm incredibly proud of the show and what we've accomplished. Throughout this journey TNT have been the most amazing partners. Their support and collaboration I will cherish forever.
I also want to thank everyone involved in making the show. Tim, Gina, Beth, Christian and Aldis are the finest ensemble of actors I've ever worked with. They've become our partners, our friends and our family.
The amazing crew who pulled off miracles every day on our show. Thank you for everything you've contributed. Your blood and sweat is in every frame of our series and I'm eternally in your debt.
And, of course, on behalf of everyone involved in the show, thank you to all the fans who've supported us and the show. You have amazed us all. We love you and thank you all.
I'm so happy we were able to film the series finale we had always envisioned and I'm happy we're able to present it on Christmas as our gift to you. It's a bittersweet goodbye."
Will you miss Leverage? Did TNT make a bad call?
Cancelled ......Makes sense,
The shows were always interesting and good. The actors were great and we reaally got a feel for every one, The action was extremly well made and the plans (heists) were Always intriguing and amazing.
People just loved it.
See the show was always about the little guys like us, who get screwed day in and day out by highly paid executives very similar to those at TNT and ABC ,Fox ect... ,and the little guy like us finally getting even or lets say justice.
It's a wonder it didn't get cancelled in the first season
One of the shows this season probably just hit a little too close to home and some exec. somewhere got his ego insulted so he flexed and cancelled the show.
Normal behavior for the robot penguins.

Hi Jamie,
I just found this forum and find it fascinating!
Lately I have had this strong sense that there is a baby spirit near to me. So, I must ask, do you see me giving birth to another baby?
Thank you so much for sharing your gift.
I do not see you birthing another child. But I do see a little girl Spirit around you, likely the one you are feeling. She has the presence of an angel to me, as opposed to a Spirit that is supposed to come Earth side.
Angels are lovely.

Young mom in Rochester
Posted 05/20/2012
Hi I am like my title says , a young mom in Rochester lol. My son is nearly 4 months old. I am 20. Just wondering if any moms in my area wanna get together and hang out. All my prepregnancy friends don't want to hang out with a mum lol.
Comments (4)
Posted 05/21/2012
You should look for a local moms group. I know Elliott hospital in Manchester has one but that's pretty far for you if you google moms group you should be able to find something. Good luck and congrats!
Posted 05/21/2012
When I was younger I went here:
I thought going to a "group" would be clinical and stupid. WRONG! We all had a lot of things in common, and in my young parents group there were lots of us that didn't hang out with our pre-pregnancy friends. There are different groups and they also had BBQs and field trips, and clothing exchanges.
I highly reccommend them!
Posted 05/24/2012
There is also a New Parent Support Group at Wentworth Douglass hospital every Monday from 1:30-3pm, I went while on maternity leave with my daughter a couple of years ago and it was great!

Why yes, I am quite proud of myself. :)

I'm in Rochester. My LO is almost 2 but if you want to PAN me then maybe we could get together. I'm 27. Not sure if that will make any difference!! :)

Previewing new books in 2013, via The Millions
Once again, The Millions, an online literary magazine, has brightened up early January with a giant preview of books due to be published this year. Millions contributors are offering thumbnail previews of 79 books due out this year.
Caveat lector: Despite The Millions' cheeky claim that this lovely list "is the only 2013 book preview you will ever need," it consists mostly of quality literary fiction, with only a few nonfiction and genre writing titles included. So, for example, you won't see anything about new books this year from Ian Tregillia, Charlaine Harris and Elizabeth Bear. »Read Full Blog Post(5)

After researching and refining the history of Wisconsin art for decades, the Museum of Wisconsin Art will be able to tell more of its story starting this weekend.

"The Remarkable Qala'at al-Hosn !" Muhafazat Hims by coceng
Muhafazat Hims Travel Guide: 303 reviews and 994 photos
In the morning on this day, I was in Palmyra; Arrived in Homs about 12 pm & I asked on how to get to Krak des Chevaliers...
The Arabic name is :
I used some sign language for this purpose & a young guy understood me.
He took me to a shop & explained to the guy there.
I think it could be a left-luggage office of some kind...
In there, I could see people left their TV sets, their radios, their bicycle...I thought I saw a hen as well but that's maybe my imagination.
Anyway, I could leave my luggage there; The guy asked me to unzip my luggage so that they knew that I didn't plant any bomb in there !
I ran to the service taxi & the journey was nice !
The scenery was cool...Passing some fertile lands in the west of Syria.
The castle is almost near the Lebanese border in fact.
Scenes From The Bus Station In HOMS...
It was also in the middle between Homs & Tartus (a seaside town in the west of Syria).
We could actually see the castle from the highway !
Also known as Qala'at Al-Hosn & this is one of Syria's best attractions !
This well-preserved castle is situated on the peak of Jebel Ansariya.
It can be visited either from Homs or Tartus as it's just 10 km away from Homs-Tartus Highway.
Along the line of history, this castle has been invaded by The Crusaders & The Mamluks; In addition to that, there are also some Gothic & Romanesque styles implanted in some parts of this castle.
Including some Islamic geometric designs as well.
There are 2 main parts :
The Inner Fortress
There are towers encircle this castle hence this castle was also a 'control' fortress of this region.
When visiting this castle, don't forget to bring a torch if you want to wander deeper into the secret alleys & passage rooms...

Archived Story
Editorial: Youths' interest in local government a breath of fresh airPublished 8:57pm Wednesday, June 29, 2011
Twenty-five year old Michael Squier shook up the Niles mayoral election Monday when he filed as a write-in candidate in the now four-man race.
It's the most recent development in a youth movement in local government. Niles resident Zach Perkins, 28, turned some heads in November when he upset incumbent John Klimek for the 13th District county commissioner post. Meanwhile, 20-year-old David Mann is the only candidate for the 3rd Ward city council seat and will likely become the youngest council member in city history.
While it's unclear if these young, ambitious politicians have enough experience and wisdom to effectively make important budget decisions, it's a breath of fresh air to see young people becoming involved in their community.
Maybe these young leaders will reverse abysmal voter turnout, especially among young people. Only 27 percent of registered voters in Niles Township showed up to the polls in 2010, while only 23.3 percent in the city of Niles cast their ballots.
With seeing a number of area youth making negative headlines recently, it's encouraging to see some young adults active in trying to improve the community.
While Perkins and Mann don't have any experience in local government, it will be interesting to see if they can bring some fresh, creative ideas to the table or at the very least spark some interest among people their age in what's going on at the city and county levels.
This editorial reflects the views of the Niles Daily Star editorial board.

Alex Mallet gets demoted
Patrick Johnston
December 04 2012 11:59AM
Alex Mallet needs to get back to driving to the net in Kalamazoo. (Photo: Chris Jerina/AHL in Photos)
Alex Mallet is off to Kalamazoo. The young Quebecer, a quintessential 'off-the-board' draft pick, was always going to be a project. Between the Wolves' lockout-bloated squad and the rawness of his skills, Mallet has struggled to get icetime and what little he's had, he's done little to stand out in a crowd.
But it's not like he's the first to have struggled to step up after gaining attention as a late-bloomer; Darren Archibald found the same challenges in his first professional season, just last year.
Has future Canuck Tyler Bozak been mis-cast in Toronto?
Cam Charron
December 04 2012 09:10AM
I've been repeatedly hammering the point that if Tyler Bozak were to come to Vancouver as the major piece in exchange for Roberto Luongo, the Canucks lose on the deal. There was my own surprise over at The Leafs Nation that Bozak even carries trade value, and I very much agreed with Dimitri's post here over at Canucks Army last month.
But things like this keep popping up:
Vancouver has already flirted with the idea of acquiring a centre in a possible Roberto Luongo trade. One of them is Tyler Bozak, who Vancouver believes has been miscast in Toronto and, if acquired, could slot into the Canucks third-line centre hole, and do it nicely.
Jason Botchford, who has given Canucks Army writers the slogan "meticulous, number-crunching whizzes" continues to repeat that the Canucks have interest in Tyler Bozak. I can think of two reasons for this, a) the team is legitimately interested in Bozak, or b) it's the lockout, he's bored, and he's trolling us.
For the purposes of this post, let's assume it's a).
Jason Gregor
December 04 2012 08:21AM
Donald Fehr and Gary Bettman will not be directly involved in today's meeting between six NHL owners and a select group of NHL players, but don't jump to a conclusion assuming that both sides will suddenly find some common ground with their leaders out of the room.
Bettman has long been the player's whipping boy. They actually believe that he wants to ruin the game and that he's the ultimate puppet master pulling the owner's strings. Meanwhile the NHL is certain that Fehr is not telling the players the truth, even though many of them have been present during most of the negotiations.
The lockout was asinine to begin with, but it's becoming more laughable by the day. It would be great if today's meeting will start an avalanche of positive negotiations, or as Steve Burton reported continue on the "significant progress" they allegedly made yesterday.
We'll see.
Frank Corrado Earns Team Canada Selection Camp Invite
Thomas Drance
December 03 2012 12:20PM
Since he first reported to Canucks camp in the fall of 2011 - and actually technically before that at the Young Stars Tournament in Penticton that September - Frank Corrado has impressed Canucks fans, media and brass with his steady, two-way play. Corrado's play has apparently caught more than just the attention of Canucks observers and prospect-ophiles, and today it was announced today that Corrado has been invited to Team Canada's selection camp for the 2012 World Junior Championship tournament
