As a study of Man it takes into consideration all the characteristics which make Man what he is. If some readers do note the absence of certain expressions familiar to them, it does not mean that the author does not feel or think as many other people--he does--and very much so; but in this book an effort has been made to approach the problem of Man from a scientific-mathematical point of view, and therefore great pains have been taken not to use words insufficiently defined, or words with many meanings. The author has done his utmost to use such words as convey only the meaning intended, and in the case of some words, such as "spiritual," there has been superadded the word "so-called," not because the author has any belief or disbelief in such phenomena; there is no need for beliefs because some such phenomena exist, no matter what we may think of them or by what name we call them; but because the word "spiritual" is not scientifically defined, and every individual understands and uses this word in a personal and private way.

Holland House Wellness Group, a Lynnwood medical-marijuana access point open for close to two years now, has one of the nicer reception areas I've ever seen at a dispensary. But having followed my usual practice of learning all I could about a place before visiting, I felt a little disconcerted by the mixed reviews they got on THCFinder.com. It turns out my patient experience there was almost entirely positive; the well-appointed office was not, as one online review claimed, all that Holland House had going for it.
Budtender Matthew saw me through a quick verification of my Washington state medical-marijuana authorization before ushering me into a well-stocked bud room with about 10 strains priced at $12 a gram, eight strains at $10, and one bargain-basement strain at $8. Also featured was a solid but limited selection of medicated edibles (priced at $4, $7, and $8); some CO2 hash oil at $60 a gram; Vita Verde cannabis topicals priced between $12 and $20; and Ganje Roast cannabis-infused coffee from $12 to $36. New patients receive a free prerolled joint with a $20 minimum donation for other items.
One practice I saw at Holland House that I haven't elsewhere is that everything is prebagged into single grams and quarter-ounces; if it's an eighth of cannabis you want, you'll have to get either three or four grams. But despite this, you can at least still smell the buds when one of the bud jars is cracked open, so you aren't totally cut off from experiencing the medicine before making your selections.
Jack's Cleaner's fat, sugary buds had a pleasantly citrusy lemon bouquet with hints of pepper
In considerable pain on the day I visited, I was in no mood for anything less than top-shelf medicine, so I selected two of the $12 strains: the sativa Jack's Cleaner and the indica-dominant Sand Widow. Jack's Cleaner's fat, sugary buds had a pleasantly citrusy lemon bouquet with hints of pepper. Its light-green, sticky calyxes are crowded with ultra-white trichomes, giving the flowers a gooey appearance. Toking reveals a crisp, heavy taste of lemon oiliness that coats the sinuses with citrus; it's a bit harsher than average, at least for the first couple of hits until the very cerebral buzz sets in. Continued smoking will result in a body stone joining the initial head high. Expect heavy munchies and, for a sativa, pronounced pain relief.
Sand Widow carried a pronounced musky, herbal flavor with skunky undertones in its darker green flowers. Toking produced a comforting two-hour buzz which effectively treated abdominal pain while recentering one's thoughts in a very pleasant way. As an indica dominant, Sand Widow has a more soporific, sleepy buzz than Jack's Cleaner, and makes a good bedtime smoke.
My experience showed me that the online reviews were right about Holland House's nice facility, but I experienced none of the staff rudeness that a few others claimed they ran into. If you live in north Seattle (or north of Seattle), this place is worth checking out.

Our Morning Roundup: Kausfiles Runs JournoList Leak
JournoList, the top-secret liberals-only Google listserve that the America Prospect's Ezra Klein started in 2007, has made its way into the wide world, courtesy of the irreverant Mickey Kaus. The list has drawn conservative's ire since Politico reported its existence earlier this month. NRO's Mark Hemingway threw a fit and fell in it, asking "if the list isn't "pushing an agenda," why are there no conservatives participating?" Dave Weigel, the Washington Independent's conservative expert (which is kind of like a red panda expert, except that conservatives mate far more frequently) tssked his widget at gloating republicans, and by extension, the leaker! So what the hell happens on the JournoList? Kaus and the poor soul who traded in his harp for a Kaus-brand hurdy gurdy have the answer: The list is where TNR's Jonathan Chait, free spirit Eric Alterman, and the Nation's Chris Hayes go to e-hug their shit out. [Ed note: Gawker and Wonkette beat me to this. FUCK!] Lying lawmakers, abortion, and the death of Culture 11 after the jump.
- Charles Homans reported on the death of local conservative web venture Culture 11 for Washington Monthly. Homans' initial impression is spot-on, and one that conservative sites, by their prudish nature, can't help but cultivate: "On its surface, the softly launched beta (test) version of Culture11 hewed closely to the original vision, down to its Slateish design. Poking around the site was a bit like wandering into the Christian rock section of a record store: the bands were recognizably bands, with electric guitars and vaguely countercultural clothing, but there was something … different about them, the musicians just a little too healthy looking to be real rock stars." I tossed my two cents on conservative culture writing into murky waters a few months back. David Sessions at Patrol has a great response to Homans' piece, in which Culture 11's Joe Carter makes a CONSERVATIVES GONE WILD appearance in the comments.
- You know how all those political types have been frothing at the mouth about the AIG bonuses/Wall Street sodomizing Main Street/Etc.? WCP alumnus Dave Jamieson calls them on their bullshit in a fantastic TNR piece: "Last week, lawmakers dashed to the podiums of Capitol Hill to condemn AIG and the rest of those bonus-loving scoundrels on Wall Street. But not long before that, some of those same members had been dashing to fundraisers with the very financial bogeymen they were now skewering." Charlie Rangel? Crook. Chris Dodd? Douche hat. Carolyn Maloney? into Wall Street for big bucks. Don't trust a one of 'em.
- Why does William Saletan talk about Lady Parts all the time? Because they matter: "The reason I keep you posted on developments in IVF, surrogates, and embryo screening is that they're transforming the debate. They're changing the conditions on which our moral positions rely. Were you pro-choice because the embryo was in a woman? Now we have embryos in dishes. Did you support embryo screening for fatal diseases? Now we're talking about screening embryos for eye color. Does the value of an embryo depend on what its mother thinks? Now we have embryos with two mothers: a genetic one and a gestational one. Should they at least consult each other?"
That's it for me, folks. Enjoy your weekend.

Unions and tea party activists? Common Core yields odd political allegiances
"Right now, I would say, it's a draw at best," Bush added.
At the moment, his is a party that does not care for the benchmarks.
The Republican National Committee has branded them an "inappropriate overreach to standardize and control the education of our children." The California Republican Party said the standards are "national efforts at one-size-fits-all uniformity."
And conservative personality Glenn Beck warned his millions of listeners: "If you don't stop it, American history is over as you know it."
Democrats aren't spared the intra-party strife, either.
Education Secretary Arne Duncan says critics of the standards engage in "political silliness." The head of the American Federation of Teachers, meanwhile, compares the implementation of the standards to the rollout of the federal health care law.
"You think the Obamacare implementation is bad?" said Randi Weingarten, who supports the standards' goals but has been vocal about the role of testing. "The implementation of the Common Core is far worse."
Such divisions are as common as unusual alliances.
Obama is getting a hand from the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, which spent $36 million to help Republican candidates in 2012. For the chamber, the nation's largest business coalition, a skilled and educated workforce is good for the bottom line.
"We've been dishonest for years when we told parents that the standards were working," said Cheryl Oldham, a vice president at the U.S. Chamber of Commerce and a former official in President George W. Bush's Education Department.
Energy giant Exxon, too, supports the benchmarks and is running television ads to introduce them to a public that isn't entirely sure what they are.
There have been efforts to roll back the standards at statehouses in Florida, Missouri, Ohio and Pennsylvania. Voters in Maine could decide next year if they will keep the standards. And several states are revisiting the decision to partner with other states to develop tests.
Yet opponents have yet to be successful. Anti-Common Core legislation failed in conservative Alabama, Georgia, South Dakota and Kansas. Only one state, Indiana, has included a review of the standards in a successful education bill.
Some of the nation's most conservative states are not rushing to yield to anti-Common Core activists. Both Arizona and Idaho overwhelmingly voted against Obama's re-election but are sticking with the standards for now.
Arizona Gov. Jan Brewer, a Republican, issued an executive order renaming the new benchmarks "Arizona's College and Career Ready Standards."
And in Idaho, the Republican chairmen of the state House and Senate education panels are urging colleagues to stick with the benchmarks, rebranded the "Idaho Core Standards."

Eminem is back to the top of the charts yet again, with new album 'Recovery'.
The US rapper replaced last week"s number one album – 'The Suburbs by Arcade Fire', reports The Mirror.
'Recovery' has been in the top 10 for eight weeks and has been knocked off the number one slot twice- by 'Arcade Fire' last week and Kylie Minogue on July 11.
Eminem also moved up two places in the singles chart, with 'Love The Way You Lie', featuring Rihanna.
British girl band The Saturdays went straight in at number three to claim the highest new entry for 'Missing You'.
Another new release to make the top 10 was 'In My System' by Tinchy Stryder at number 10.
The other artists in the top 10 singles chart were Yolanda Be Cool Vs D Cup, Travie McCoy featuring Bruno Mars, Bob featuring Hayley Williams, Wanted and Eliza Doolittle.

Reality is that on my commute for a few days after a fresh snow I'm likely to run into ice, loose snow, hard packed snow, loose snow on hard packed snow, loose snow on ice, slush, water and dry pavement.
Having different wheels or different tires doesn't help unless I want to get off my bike and change them every few feet.
Currently I'm using some inexpensive (cheap) Nashbar 1.95" tires that I believe are made by Kenda. The work fine for dry pavement (although heavy), ice and hard pack, suck for anything involving loose snow. My bike gets really squirrely. in even less than inch of loose snow.
Is there anything better for working in a wide variety of conditions? Would changing tire pressure help?
Thanks !

How do I do that?

Children learn and play in Camp Adventure
July 22, 2009
RED CLOUD GARRISON South Korea - For the past two month's children from the ages 5-13 have been enjoying summer fun provided by the Community Activities Center and a group of individuals from the University of Northern Iowa during the Camp Adventure program. The nine week program, offered to all Soldiers and Department of Defense Civilians, features many activities for children to get a chance to develop different skills and character building qualities such as discipline.
"I just want the children to look up to us counselors as role models to learn how to behave," said Chris Nowman, a Camp Adventure nicknamed "Mr. Storm," a title given to him by the children.
Every week the camp has a different theme for learning; i.e., Aquatic Adventures, a theme where the children learn about underwater art designs, and the Camp Humphreys Splish Splash Water Park for one of their weekly field trips with counselors.
The children go swimming on Monday and Wednesday, field trips on Thursday, and bowling on Tuesday. Camp Adventure also provides sports, games, arts and crafts, and social activities.
Tuesday and Friday lunch is on the Camp, so children do not have to bring sack lunches. The campers eat out during their field trip and on Friday, the CAC provides a barbecue for campers and their parents.
"My favorite part of Camp Adventure is at the end of the day," said Samantha Geiling, a 12-year-old girl enrolled in Camp Adventure. "Because closing time is when we get together and sing songs to each other, which is a great way to remember each other, even if you are going to see each other tomorrow."
Geiling comes to Korea every summer to visit her father, and enjoys going to work with him sometimes. Last year was Geiling's first enrollment in Camp Adventure. She immediately fell in love with it. She told her father how much she loved the program, and he told her how pleasing that was to hear and he would bring her again. Needless to say, Geiling came back this year and found all of her friends back in Camp Adventure.
"The one thing I hope is these children have a memorable summer experience," said Britta Holdun, director of Camp Adventure. "Some of these children are homeschooled, or do not have siblings. Some are missing the experience of having friends and the interactions that come with the experience children have in the United States."
"Camp Adventure is awesome. I recommend it to any child whose parents are stationed in Korea," Geiling said.

Skip to comments.Poll: Majority Says If Obama Was a CEO, He Would Have Been Fired
Posted on 09/29/2011 5:23:40 PM PDT by Red in Blue PA
If Barack Obama were president of a major U.S. company, hed be fired by now. Thats what American voters think -- by a 52-38 percent margin.
Fifty-six percent of independents think a corporations board of directors would have already handed Obama his pink slip. Nearly a quarter of Democrats also believe Obama would be out (23 percent).
(Excerpt) Read more at nation.foxnews.com ...
He would've never been hired in the first place.
Fired!? He'd be in jail right now.
Based on his resume (or lack of), I wouldn't have hired him in the first place.
Affirmative action...any questions? follow the wookies career and thats all you will see.
Why would anyone hire a CEO who didn't subscribe to the core values of the company, and who openly mocked the mission statement and goals of said company?
Exactly what we plan to do come Nov 2012.
Majority Says If Obama Was a CEO, He Would Have Been Fired.
Ya think?!
Maybe on the board, but as CEO? They're usually held accountable to the stockholders, like Cain was at his gigs.
The scary part is is that ANYONE, after seeing all he has done, would still not fire the clown!
Given his record, what evidence is there that he would recognize the authority of the Board to fire him?
Given his record, what evidence is there that he would recognize the authority of the Board to fire him?
There are several investigations going on concerning the president. The courts are so stacked I doubt if any investigations resllt in a conviction . See what was going on all those years you were living it up, or raising a family, or working hard? The termites of Communism invaded the foundation of America! And termites are difficult to get rid of.
Under Immelts watch GE has lost about 1/3 of its value. Why is he still there?
Poll: Majority Says If Obummer Was a Kenyan Garbageman, He Would Have Been Fired
And if he failed at one of those places he could go on to be the CEO of HP.
Being intelligent or ethical doesn't seem to be a prereq to run a major corporation these days.
As a longtime business owner, and one who deals with high end businesses, the man would never even been asked to interview for a CEO position.
The genius of his promoters is that they manipulated public perception to accept this guy as legitimate. Those people could get an interview for CEO for the singular accomplishment of successfully selling this piece of nothing to the citizens of the USA.
If Obama "were", not "was".
Must have been a product of the American school system.
Thanks liberals.
I would not have even hired him to work in the mailroom.
My money is on hom getting perpwalked in Jan 2013 like Bernie Ebbers.
If Obama was a jew janitor, he would have been fired by now.
Why was he hired ??
0bama is an empty suit with no college transcripts.
The evil spawn of white communists and Black Muslims.
I saw my first blue Obama 2012 bumper sticker yesterday. Made me think I should buy a bunch of blue "Stop" stickers to correct the errors when I see them.
Now that´s funny.
Obama as a CEO? Maybe in an alternative universe. Hell, he's never worked for a company, never worked a day in his life, never earned a promotion, never managed people, and never met a payroll. He's nothing but an AA/AA flunky. Nobody on the planet would hire him as a CEO except may Fidel Castro or Hugo Chavez.
What a sad state of affairs that a nation this great could be taken in by such a flimflam man.
AA upgrades and foreign exchange $$ at best.
If I were blaming my failures and utter incompetence on someone we hasn't even worked there for 3 years, I don't think that would fly either.
Nobama, No never, Not ever.
An unknown guy shows up at your company's door.
Says he wants the CEO position.
Won't reveal his education records.
Has no leadership experience.
Has no executive experience.
Has a grudge against your core business.
You ask for his credentials and then you are shouted down as being racist because he is a black man.
He gets the job anyway.
He moves in and proceeds to target all your good customers.
Hires friends who have no experience in your industry. Pays them handsomely.
Fires all your current good vendors and goes with overpriced new vendors who cannot deliver.
Goes on vacation every other week.
Puts his feet up on your desk.
Spends the Christmas fund on golf
Throws parties for his buds and takes the cost out of your paycheck.
Laws? Those are for the little people.
Then the board has enough and asks for his resignation.
He then sets fire to the building and blames on it some crazy bible and gun toting racist white folks.
descriptive enough?
He would have never made it out of the mail room.

Introducing the ES3
Most espresso machines carry quite complicated electromechanical systems but the ES3 uses a simple and robust lever mechanism. This technology—developed in post-war Italy—gives you absolute control over the extraction process.
The coffee bean is a natural product and as such it is subject to subtle changes over time. Preparing the perfect espresso involves a continuous interplay between coffee bean, grinder and espresso machine. If during your extraction of an espresso you feel that the first coffee drops appear a little later and slower than expected, you can easily adapt the extraction process by pulling the lever down just a little bit harder. After finishing the shot, you will probably adjust the grinder to a slightly coarser setting but you just might also experience a new and deeper taste quality in the stronger brew.
As the palm of your hand leans on the lever and the espresso starts to flow, you will find that there is no system offering you more direct control than the ES3.
Furthermore, the ES3 water temperature is easily adjustable. This is very convenient because an Ethiopian bean could be most delicious if brewed on 88ºC whereas a robust Brazilian may sometimes be best extracted at 94ºC.
On the ES3, nothing is concealed. The open boiler shows the hot water and the filter basket contains the ground coffee. After the portafilter has been connected to the machine, you lift the lever. Then, from the top, you carefully apply counter pressure. The first droplets of coffee appear and the extraction has begun.
As the espresso flows, it is clear how quiet this machine is. You can listen to the finest Maria Callas recording while silently pulling your shot.
The ES3 has no casing. This is pure technology and form following function. The ES3 does without a concealing steel casing and there are no electronic push buttons; the machine was expressly designed from scratch with the prospect of never having a casing. In consequence, nothing can be hidden from sight. And this would be unnecessary too, because the ES3 has been manufactured using the very best materials. For safety reasons we did close off the box containing the heating element and thermostat. Every single part of this machine has been under close scrutiny because it is built to serve you for at least 20 years. Robust technology, durable materials and a design which will still match excellently in years to come.
"The classic male kitchen machine that finally can be appreciated by the whole family. It makes light roasted single origins taste amazing."
—Johan Ahlgren
"Great consistency shot after shot after shot, classic lever taste hard to find these days. Once you understand the machine, no other machine gives you the same experience."
—Arnold Moon
"There is nothing complicated and it makes exceptional espresso with ease. The ES3 is a fairly simple and straightforward machine"
"The ES3 is so refined, and there is more than a little cyber punk to the design."
For more information or inquiries please contact us.

the USA is not rich anymore, they're completely in debted to China, the only advantage the US has is technology.. in time it'll loose that too. Just accept that the United States sold its superpower status to China and be done with it- if we did have a war soon I'm certain that the EU will rise up and do what should have been done after WW2, create a european superpower that can then secure peace throughout the world. And no the Americans did not win WW2, Russia did .
|Sep 30 2010 Anchor
I seriously doubt the USA will ever lose it's super power status to anything unless it's by alien invaders.
|Sep 30 2010 Anchor
And thus the US "we can't be defeated" ethos kicks in, the reality is though America for the past 100 years just "got lucky" in that it held off from going to war for so long and built up a strong military and economy whilst the rest of the world burned- and then came in at the end only to discover Russia had done the same thing. The US only influenced the world over because it was in a position to trade and bring prosperity to those nations, and every other nation fell into line.. then Globalization came along where the distribution of power fell in China's favor, China is more a superpower today than what the United States is, they control all our manufacturing, the thing that gave the US its ability to influence other nations- now all it has left is technology.. which can be replicated by the Chinese in time- its just lucky for the west they're on our side for now. But America is indebt to China, not the other way around, the United States lost its superpower status when it took out that loan, just as Britian did when it borrowed from America.
As for Russia they control the worlds natural resource supplies of Oil and have relationships with every other country that has this resource as well, Russia can and has dicated Europes energy/resource trade for decades now- though this was something they were doing even in WW2. The EU will soon put an end to Russia's monopoly over energy resoruces and in doing so will force Russia to react to economic sabotage- hopefully not with hostility, though I think NATO will prove very important in the years to come.
Sooner or later the GFC will turn into something far worse, America has failed to recover from the GFC anyway where as the rest of the world managed to shrug it off for the most part (except spain and greece who I think will be at the mercy of Germany sooner or later.) The EU definately will in time become a superpower of nations, It's doubtful that Britian will join though, but Germany's prosperity will be a huge driving force and will really put pressure on Russia in years to come.
What I do hope America does is try to get Star Wars setup soon, whilst Obama did the right thing in stepping down as a sign of good faith to the Russians, the reality is that the system needs to exist sooner or later because of a risk that Russia might try to invade Europe or/and America.
As I said, what is likely to trigger huge problems is a conflict between Iran and Israel because this will essentially push the world back into the cold war. But America I feel no longer has the political sway any longer, the EU, Russia and China ultimately rule global politics now. If America wants influence it needs to get its economy sorted out, and I just don't see it happening.
|Sep 30 2010 Anchor
Well i hate those types of people too. And it's one of the reasons i don't play on Russian servers. I think they embarrass our country. Not all Russians are like that.

Not to mention the USA doesn't even have the resources to care for it's own people in emergency. Consider the fallout from Hurricane Katrina; it hit several fairly poor areas of the US and left lasting damage (physical and personal levels). That fallout is still there five years later, left undealt with.
Supposedly 'third world' or 'developing' nations deal with these kind of crises more quickly and effectively.
It's also interesting to note how much each nation is currently pledging towards the flooding efforts in south Asia at the moment (displacing over 20 million people). Given that the USA is a nation the size of a continent, why have they pledged less than some European and Middle-Eastern nations? Even more interestingly however, why have they committed more on sending aid to Pakistan over the last two weeks than they have rebuilding their own damage communities over the last two years? The answer is simple - as a nation the USA is fast losing it's financial power and with it, it's ability to influence foreign politics. They're unable to adequately provide for their own citizens, but at the same time are expending more resources than they can afford in an effort to try and maintain their 'superpower' status.
People like to think that the USA 'won' the Cold War, but in reality I'm beginning to think that they completely overextended themsselves and are now beginning to suffer the consequences.

The United States are hypocrites (by that I mean their government and commercial ethos), all that talk of Liberty, Freedom and Equality when in reality its just an Aristocracy- the very same thing the American Revolutionists criticized britian for.
I agree completely Amber, and I think the only way the US government can fix this problem is through embracing more socialist ideas (but given the huge shitstorm Obama created for calling himself a "socialist" apparently this is unamerican.. screwing over your fellow man is American so it seems) and rebuilding what these moronic capitalists took out of their country by outsourcing to China.. The global labor crisis was NOT solved through Globalization, all it did was create further political imbalance in the world. If America wanted to be a superpower it should NEVER had done that because all that ensured was eventually China would take over in their place. I think Clinton was a complete idiot for removing the restrictions on Globalization as he's to blame for why the capitalists in America not only sold their country out, but then also caused the GFC via another Clinton policy that enabled them to create the stupid system of Loan Brokering which has as we've seen now not only ruined the lives of many Americans but also destroyed lives across the world- it should have remained illegal because it was a bad idea. America is to blame for creating that system and forcing the rest of the world to step into line. The GFC I feel was the begining of the end for America as a superpower.
and as I've said, the real test will be to see how it reacts to Iran and Israel.

Obama is just another democratic president who just throws money at their problems instead of actually fixing them.
|Sep 30 2010 Anchor
hold on though, throwing money at things IS how you fix things, you have to re-capitalize in order to grow. Obama's biggest flaw is that when a major issue has come along he's tried to duck and dodge responcibility towards it- just like any other politician in the world. His claim "Change is coming" isn't true, he hasn't really done as much as what he made out he would when he was elected.. and I question his re-election (which is a worry given who his up against.)
If you want to fix the problems in America, you gotta get everyone employed again- Obama hasn't made any real attempts to do this, for that matter he's done nothing to rebuild the manufacturing industries that America lost to China- if he wants to fix the issues, he has to rebuild what made America strong throughout the 20th century, which is the manufacturing industry. What I've thought of is that a potential war could in fact fix this issue as it would create a war economy climate where the people are either able to work in factories, or serve in the actual war- it could be a huge boost to the economy in America and get the economy out of a recession- this was done to pull the world out of the great depression afterall. I see too much incentive here for America to get involved in a future conflict, be it Russia, Iran or North Korea- this is I feel the only way America can keep its grasp on the super power status. But I hope it doesn't come to that.
|Sep 30 2010 Anchor
Well, he threw money at that cash for clunkers program. But, that pretty much backfired... Though I loved it, cause I got myself a brand new Toyota out of it. So I am conflicted. Pretty sure that program was made so we buy from local car manufactures to help our own economy and not the foreign economy. MANY americans bought Japanese vehicles.. So all that money got wasted.
Anyways, yup. The problem here is that the USA companies outsource way too much. Obama needs to focus on creating jobs HERE.

Nope, its more of a case that the US is going to do just as Britian did and spend a whole 60-80 odd years paying it back. Though it could go like good old medieval times and they'll just nuke the country they owe money to, yay Debt settled! this funnily enough is how France and Britian became superpowers during that time lol (they killed all the people they owed money to, Britian killed Jewish bankers whilst France killed the Knights Templar). Of course I'm just speculating. It'd be better if I were completely wrong lol.

This quickly turned from a thread about Russian stereotypes to an anti-American/anti-Obama thread...
you gotta get everyone employed again- Obama hasn't made any real attempts to do this, for that matter he's done nothing to rebuild the manufacturing industries that America lost to China-
Well the democrats had a bill designed to end tax breaks for companies that close their US plants and move overseas and instead give companies tax breaks to hire new US workers, which got defeated a few days ago by republicans (53-45). It's a bit unfair to say he's made no attempts and has doing nothing, when just about anything he tries gets blocked by your Senate.
It was "intended to provide economic incentives to U.S. residents to purchase a new, more fuel-efficient vehicle when trading in a less fuel-efficient vehicle. The program was promoted as providing stimulus to the economy by boosting auto sales, while putting safer, cleaner and more fuel-efficient vehicles on the roadways."
Well yeah, that's because they're third world. It doesn't take a lot for them to return to the status quo of everyday life. Meanwhile, as Louis CK puts it, Americans have so much crap they can lose most of it and still have more than the average Canadian.
|Sep 30 2010 Anchor
I wouldn't say its anti-obama, but I would agree my comments are Anti-American.

Still, maybe they should of rewritten it to where the program would only cover local manufacturers.

Russians are bad because they were no good dirty commies.
Sure, that's changed now, but it's easier to just go back to an old enemy (i.e. China/Russia/Germany/Japan) than to create a brand new enemy out of another country.

Compared to a New Orlean bitching about losing their air conditioning or cable television during a hurricane, they might as well be.
|Sep 30 2010 Anchor
I think you need to get out in the world. Case in example, Malaysia is a supposedly 'developing' nation. Most flat blocks there still however manage to maintain a swimming pool. Just because it's a 'third world economy' doesn't mean that it's inhabitants live in some backwards age where they won't have air conditioning or cable television - because they do have those things.

No, you need to stop looking at the resort areas and (unaffected) wealthier cities in these countries. It's like using Hong Kong as the poster for life throughout China. Instead look at the homes and villages that actually end up getting hit by these major disasters. Look at villages in Tamil Nadu, Kashmir, homes around Haiti and Somalia. The places that really get hit by these things... huts and slums. You can't tell me for one second that the average American (or Canadian/British for that matter) would be remotely content or comfortable with that level of material wealth.
I remember watching a documentary about Earthquakes in China that destroyed schools killing every child inside (400+). It wasn't even a strong earthquake, the buildings were just very poorly built. Haiti probably shared a similar fate by having absolutely no building codes. Sorry for believing it take more effort and money to build/restore New Orleans and other towns in America the way they are compared to what is standard in places like Indonesia.

Guys you're both right, its a problem in the third world that there's a huge gap between the rich and the poor. Places like India for example where you can have Mansions next to slums..
It's just the world we live in and it sucks. If It were up to me there'd be no rich or poor, just a whole bunch of people with enough money to survive and accomplish the things they want from life.

Rickey entertained in so many ways
Originally Published: January 11, 2009By Tim Kurkjian | ESPN The Magazine
Many years ago, A's leadoff man Rickey Henderson did what he did better than anyone: He reached base to start a game. Orioles manager Frank Robinson determined that his pitcher and catcher were incapable of stopping Henderson from stealing, so they didn't attempt a throw as he stole second and third. "We might have thrown the ball into center field, or down the left field line," Robinson said. "We couldn't stop him. He is just too good."That's how good Henderson was: He was too good. ...

I'm planning to wean my LO by the time I go back to work in September, but I'm wondering if I should keep the pumping sessions I have now or not.
Right now, I feed LO six times a day (I combo feed - first breastfeed and then formula supplement). I also pump right after the first morning feed, and also at night while LO is sleeping so I can give her BM during the day.
I plan to drop a feeding a week, but I'm wondering about the pumping - if I reduce the pumping and stop it all together, will this affect my supply so badly that I won't be able to keep up with the remaining feedings while I wean? Should I keep the pumping and drop that last? Or should I drop the pumping first, and then drop a feeding a week?
LO is not a good nurser and I feel like the pumping has definitely kept my supply up, so if I don't have that and she does not nurse well at some feedings during the day, I'm worried I'll be weaning her even faster than I want to.
Any advice?

This loan is part of National Microfinance Bank's education program, designed to finance school tuition for students whose families have low incomes or work in informal sectors of the economy. Funds can be used for partial or complete payment of expenses related to higher education. This loan is unique compared to other options on the market as NMB has introduced flexible interest rates, meaning the loan interest rate is lowered for students with good grades and students who are engaged in community service/voluntering activiites. Discounts are also offered to students with physical disabilities and to families who have other children also studying at the university level.

About National Microfinance BankJordan is a small country located in the heart of the Middle East's Levant region. Regional instability has caused Jordan to be excluded from global investments for decades. Additionally, a lack of natural resources—including water and energy—places tremendous strain on the Jordanian economy, over 80% of which consists of small businesses, largely in the service industry. Despite their importance in the economy, many of these businesses are excluded from the banking sector because of their size. Microfinance institutions like National Microfinance Bank offer them an opportunity to enhance and expand their businesses. NMB also offers its services to other underprivileged peoples in Jordan, providing them with loans to pursue educational goals and improve their homes and livelihoods.
Loan tags help lenders find loans that match certain areas of interest. You can add up to 5 tags for this loan.

9/11 influences New York Soldiers' lives
September 12, 2011
By Sgt. Kandi Huggins, 1st Advise and Assist Task Force Public Affairs, 1st Infantry Division
CONTNIGENCY OPERATING SITE WARRIOR, Iraq -- A decade ago, the world witnessed an act of terrorism when two planes hit the World Trade Center Twin Towers in New York, killing thousands of people and causing destruction unlike any previously witnessed in the United States.
About two miles away, on the Staten Island Ferry, heading to school at Staten Island University, 1st Lt. Holjer Correa, then a civilian, said he witnessed the destruction first hand.
"At first I thought it was an office fire or something that had broken out," said the maneuver platoon leader, Fire Support Company G, 1st Battalion, 5th Field Artillery Regiment, 1st Advise and Assist Task Force, 1st Infantry Division. "It wasn't until I got to school that I realized that a plane crashed into the building."
Correa, a native of Brooklyn, N.Y., said he was initially angry at the events occurring near him as he realized his state had suffered such an attack, however, he also said the events made him more aware.
"After 9/11, I had the impulse to drop out of college and enlist, but my family advised me to wait and then join," said Correa. "What happened made me more awake and vigilant, and I definitely wanted to be in the fight."
Now, after three years of service, Correa is a part of the fight, supporting Operation New Dawn and the 1st AATF's mission of advising and assisting the Iraqi Security Forces in and around Kirkuk, Iraq.
Correa's platoon is involved with the force protection of Contingency Operating Site Warrior by manning guard towers, providing perimeter security.
While Correa's platoon is responsible for the security of the Soldiers within the perimeters of COS Warrior, Spc. Jordan Mann, a combat engineer, Company C, 1st Special Troops Battalion, 1st AATF, 1st Inf. Div., supports OND by helping ensure the various routes Soldiers take outside the wire are safe to travel.
A native of Middletown, N.Y., Mann, also a three-year veteran, said he was also inspired to join the Army because of the events of 9/11.
"I was in the ninth grade when I heard about what happened during lunch," said Mann. "My school was about two hours away from the city and I knew something happened because the adults were frantic, but I didn't know the severity of it until I got home."
In 2003, U.S. forces deployed in support of Operation Iraqi Freedom, to end the regime of Saddam Hussein and help Iraq to build a self-sustaining democratic government.
Now in Operation New Dawn, Soldiers are closing out operations in Iraq, leaving their imprint during the period known as the "Final Chapter."
Mann feels he has left his mark on Operation New Dawn by helping train the 12th Iraqi Army Division during his time at Contingency Operating Location K1.
"By training the IA, we helped them do something they couldn't do before in gaining the knowledge and experience they needed to be able to support their country," he said.
Seeing what has been accomplished in this tour in Iraq, he feels servicemembers who were willing to give their all for their country, for their families, and for their freedoms have made a difference.
Correa concluded, "I'm honored and privileged to be a part of something great, and to see all of the changes myself."
A decade after the attacks, the country's sons and daughters are continuing to make sacrifices every day in order to protect New York, the United States and the world.


text: I just read this article on Yahoo. ĀThe word used to describe this trend was "frenzy" that mothers in other countries (China was specifically named in the article) are eager to have their children born on American soil. ĀIs it right or wrong or does it depend on the situation (e.g., family is in oppressed situation)? ĀIt sounds like the parents are taking their families back to China, but they just want their children to have options.

Hudson Pacific Properties Inc. Stock Downgraded (HPP)
TheStreet) -- Hudson Pacific Properties (NYSE: HPP) has been downgraded by TheStreet Ratings from hold to sell. The company's weaknesses can be seen in multiple areas, such as its poor profit margins, weak operating cash flow and feeble growth in its earnings per share. Highlights from the ratings report include:NEW YORK (
-- Written by a member of TheStreet Ratings Staff
- The gross profit margin for HUDSON PACIFIC PPTYS INC is currently extremely low, coming in at 8.10%. It has decreased from the same quarter the previous year. Along with this, the net profit margin of -2.90% is significantly below that of the industry average.
- Net operating cash flow has declined marginally to $4.00 million or 4.83% when compared to the same quarter last year. In conjunction, when comparing current results to the industry average, HUDSON PACIFIC PPTYS INC has marginally lower results.
- HUDSON PACIFIC PPTYS INC has exprienced a steep decline in earnings per share in the most recent quarter in comparison to its performance from the same quarter a year ago. The company has reported a trend of declining earnings per share over the past year. However, the consensus estimate suggests that this trend should reverse in the coming year. During the past fiscal year, HUDSON PACIFIC PPTYS INC reported poor results of -$0.36 versus -$0.19 in the prior year. This year, the market expects an improvement in earnings (-$0.22 versus -$0.36).
- The company, on the basis of net income growth from the same quarter one year ago, has significantly underperformed compared to the Real Estate Investment Trusts (REITs) industry average, but is greater than that of the S&P 500. The net income increased by 9.6% when compared to the same quarter one year prior, going from -$1.18 million to -$1.07 million.
- Compared to where it was a year ago, the stock is now trading at a higher level, and has traded in line with the S&P 500. Turning our attention to the future direction of the stock, we do not believe this stock offers ample reward opportunity to compensate for the risks, despite the fact that it rose over the past year.
