"(Republicans) really believe that a strong U.S. economy rests upon an ever increasing accumulation of wealth and power in the hands of a few enlightened guys they think are smarter than you are," Biden said. "You are the only thing that stands between the barbarians at the gate and them taking it all over."
You've got to be kidding me, Biden. Are you sure you're not talking about the Democrat party here? The Democrats and the Liberals are the ones who advocate raiding the private sector to fill their D.C. coffers with wealth and power only to redistribute it in such a way that enslaves a voting bloc and advances their own "enlightened" agenda.
Hard-working men and women like the Teamsters have been duped into believing the lies of the Left for years. The Las Vegas Review Journal quotes Rudy Gardner, 55, of Washington, D.C., as saying…

Data broker opt out issue — The World Privacy Forum sent a letter to the Federal Trade Commission asking it to look into four companies offering online consumers the ability to opt out, then asking those consumers to use a variety of postal-mail-based methods to do so.
Telemarketing | Top Ten Opt Out List — Beginning today, pre-recorded telemarketing phone calls must come with an easy opt-out for consumers. If a pre-recorded telemarketing call is left on an answering machine, it must also include opt-out information. These rules will apply to telemarketers already subject to the Federal Trade Commission's Telemarketing Sales Rule and Do Not Call List. There are some exemptions to the rule. For more details about the changes, see our Top Ten Opt Out List, which has been updated with the new information.

Students Demonstrate Research Skills at Fourth Annual Diversity Conference
March 1996
Since 1981, Dade County, Florida, has operated
an Artificial Reef Program to increase marine habitats for fish and other
Maria Lacayo and five other 9th-graders at Miami Senior High School operated
their own artificial reef program for a month to learn which organisms initially
occupy an artificial (concrete) surface and learn how they attach themselves.
Lacayo, whose group won an award, was one of more than 400 student presenters
at the 1995 National Conference on Diversity in the Scientific and Technological
Workforce, sponsored by NSF's Directorate for Education and Human Resources
(EHR). Attendance topped 2,400 and included representatives from national
science and technology associations, science, mathematics and engineering
professionals from the public and private sectors, science educators,
and officials from industry and government.
The weekend of presentations showcased scientific talent among African American,
Hispanic, and Native American students ranging from seventh graders to graduate
students. Presenters were chosen from among students in EHR's programs to increase
participation of underrepresented minorities in science careers. More than 500,000
students are currently involved.
The NSF research directorates also sponsored student presenters from their funded
research projects. "These programs are designed to increase the nation's competitiveness
by ensuring that all its citizens are active participants in a science, engineering,
and mathematics workforce," says EHR Assistant Director Luther Williams. "Not
all students have an equal opportunity to compete for degrees in science, mathematics,
engineering, and technology; however, these programs have been remarkably successful
in increasing the number of underrepresented minorities."
Within each program, students exhibit a broad range of interests. Lacayo's group
was one of many focused on environmental science. Other groups studied molecular
biology ("Three-dimensional Liquid Crystalline Polymers of Polybenzobisoxazole
and Polybenzobisthiazole"); and agronomy ("Water Retention in Till and No-Till
The conference provides an opportunity to demonstrate what individuals and teams
of students can do with appropriate resources and support, says Conference Coordinator
Elmima Johnson. "Given the proper training and exposure, all children can learn
and appreciate science."

Down to a dozen, Democrats in the Oklahoma Senate say they will continue to fight
If they were eggs, they'd fill a carton; if they were months, they'd comprise a year.
Just four years after losing the majority in the Senate for the first time, the roster of Democrats in the Oklahoma Senate is only 12 names long.
"Some people call us the 'Dirty Dozen,' other people have other names for us," said Senate Minority Leader Sean Burrage, D-Claremore. "We're down from 16 last year, but I think our task remains the same, which is to be an alternative voice in this state Capitol."
Since its founding days, Oklahoma was a bastion for the Democratic Party — the party of the farmers, the unions and the party of the South.
Democrats won 18 of the 21 gubernatorial elections since statehood in 1907 and held a stronghold during the years of the Great Depression and immediately thereafter.
But the last Democratic presidential candidate to carry the state was Lyndon Johnson in 1964, and President Barack Obama failed to win any of the state's 77 counties in 2008 or 2012.
Democratic identification among registered voters in Oklahoma dropped from almost 64 percent 20 years ago to about 46 percent today.
Democrats in the Senate today said they remain hopeful despite the three-to-one mismatch.
"Good legislation will make it through," said Sen. Tom Ivester, D-Sayre. "Obviously we've got policy differences, but we've also got good bills."
In the 49th Legislative session, which ran two years beginning in 2003, 462 of 555 Senate bills sent to Gov. Brad Henry were from his fellow Democrats. Party representation during that session was in favor of Democrats 28-20.
Policy agenda
In the 53rd Legislative session, which ran two years beginning in 2011, 51 of 372 Senate bills sent to Gov. Mary Fallin, a Republican, came from across the aisle. Party representation during that session was in favor of Republicans 31-17.
Of the 1,119 bills filed in the Senate this year, 184 were filed by Democrats.
They shape the party's policy agenda: Increased pay for teachers, school support staff and state employees; easier access to voting; more accountability and oversight of budgetary decisions made by the Legislature.
Together, they support restoring public education funding to its 2009 levels and they are critical of a Republican plan to cut the state's personal income tax rates.
Senate Bill 185 would amend a state law that requires abstinence to be a primary focus of sexual education classes in schools.
Senate Bill 777 would require the expansion of Medicaid to eligible Oklahomans, despite clear rejection of any such expansion by Gov. Mary Fallin, a Republican, last fall.
Sen. Constance Johnson filed a bill that would investigate the state's use of the death penalty, a bill that would relax sentencing and punishment for possession of certain amounts of marijuana, and another one that would authorize marijuana use for medical purposes.
Johnson, D-Forest Park, said she and her Democratic colleagues take their mission seriously, despite the odds stacked against them.
"I think you go forward believing in the process," she said. "That's what you have to believe in — that it's worth putting out there a proposal and the process is what you're supposed to use to get it heard."
And though they're small in numbers, the "Dirty Dozen" boast 80 years of combined legislative experience.
Nine of the 12 have served in the Senate at least six years. Sen. Jerry Ellis, D-Valliant, joined in 2008 but before that served five years in the House of Representatives.
One of the two freshmen Senators — Sen. Jabar Shumate, D-Tulsa — was first elected to the House in 2004.
'Forget about party'
Most of them are holdovers from when the Democratic Party held the majority in the Oklahoma Legislature, said Sen. Randy Bass.
"We know what it's like to be in charge and in control," Bass, D-Lawton, said. "We were tied a few years and things worked out when we were tied because we had to work together, we had to compromise. And then the Republicans took over."
And if they dropped from majority to a handful in just five years, he said, who is to say in another five they won't win it back?
"The thing is, people need to just forget about party and they need to think about what's good for their districts," Ellis said. "There's good and bad about both parties."

For political aficionados, a congressman's visit to a coffee shop had an atmosphere closer to that of a rock concert.
Thirty minutes before U.S. Rep. Ron DeSantis, R-Ponte Vedra Beach, arrived, cars lined up along the adjacent street, bumper to bumper. Inside City Coffee, there were nearly 200 people jockeying for position on the limited bar stools and coffee tables. Some lucky ones sat on couches. The less fortunate stood upright, leaned against a counter or lobbied by the front door.
When the congressman did arrive, he was met with applause.
"We obviously didn't expect this many people to be here," DeSantis said, "so thank you for being here."
DeSantis advertised Thursday's event as part of his "Constituent Coffees" across the district. The day before, he had been in Volusia County.
In the corner, by the door, three Flagler College students had taken post. They represented the Love146 Task Force, a group which raises awareness and funds to prevent sex trafficking. Then there was the woman in blue, talking fast, friendly, letting everyone know "immigration is key." Tea party members stood inside and out, with signs opposing the Affordable Care Act.
"As the representative for Florida's sixth district, it is my top priority to hear from the Floridians I serve, not Washington bureaucrats," DeSantis said in a release.
But those bureaucrats were the main target of the conversation, dictated by a 15-minute introduction in which DeSantis took aim at a bill he said helped politicians to avoid reaping what they had sown in terms of health care.
"What this fix does is that for only Congress members and their staffs, they are able to get an additional subsidy from the federal government to relieve them of the burden of any increased costs," DeSantis said. "I don't think it's actually even legal."
Things went smoothly in DeSantis' opening salvo, as he tackled the bill and touted his continued support for Israel and the need for a response to the Benghazi attack last year.
It was when he stopped talking that trouble came.
People interrupted each other to ask questions, only differentiating themselves by the intensity of their voices. Crowd members spoke over the congressman at times, in an effort to make their point clearer or, if not that, at least louder. A woman jabbed a person in the back, telling him to get out of the way, because she couldn't see.
The first person to speak suggested that in order to repeal "Obamacare," it would have to be replaced, not simply erased.
"I completely agree," DeSantis said, mentioning a letter written to address some of the health system's issues. "Just look it up on the Internet."
A comment about defunding The Affordable Care Act was met by cheers from many of the listeners, except for the woman in the red floral shirt, who had come specifically to talk about health care. She was the president of the St. Johns County Democratic Party, but she was quiet and raised her hand to ask her question. She never had a chance.
DeSantis stressed the importance of setting a federal budget.
"It's just ridiculous because when I was running last time, the Senate hadn't passed the budget in three years," DeSantis said. "Which is bad, because I think you need the budget, but it is even worse, because the law requires you to do a budget."
Susan Pai, a lawyer from Jacksonville, pushed DeSantis to address why immigration legislation had faltered.
"I don't care what you do," Pai said, "I just ask the House to just move and do something."
His answer didn't satisfy her though, and when she continued to ask, the crowd booed and drowned out her voice. She would try to talk again later, with a similar response.
"This idea that we should just do anything … you've got to do things that are thoughtful, that aren't going to create more problems," DeSantis said.
The session lasted an hour, although DeSantis stayed for almost half an hour after to answer questions personally. The Flagler students left without asking their questions.
Outside, it was raining.

Information Literacy Best Practices Committee
1. Introduction
The Information Literacy Best Practices Committee is looking for information literacy programs that are exemplary in any of the categories outlined in, "Characteristics of Programs of Information Literacy that Illustrate Best Practices: A Guideline." Programs that are found by the Committee to be exemplary will be listed on the IS-ILBP website as exemplars for other programs seeking to follow best practices. Programs need not be U.S.-based.
For any of the following categories for which you would like your program to be considered, please describe how your program exemplifies this category. If you have web-based documentation of your program that would help the committee, please include links in your descriptions. This software does not save hyperlinks that are formatted in any way, so please write out links in full and make sure they have not been formatted as hyperlinks by your word processor.
Please treat each category entry as a distinct application, i.e. judges for one category may not read your other category entries.
Submissions will be judged according to the characteristics set out in the best practices Guideline. The Best Practices Evaluation Rubric, developed by the ILBP Committee, assists committee members in applying these characteristics. Both documents are available through the ILBP webpage at http://www.ala.org/acrl/aboutacrl/directoryofleadership/sections/is/iswebsite/committees/bestpractices. Categories sometimes overlap, so we recommend applying for those categories that best frame your strengths as a program.

The Coast Guard has suspended its search for a man who fell overboard in rough seas near Oregon Inlet.
The Coast Guard said in a news release that the search was suspended Saturday night after 11 hours of searching for 28-year-old Christopher Panchyshyn of Richmond, Va.
Panchyshyn was one of three people thrown overboard earlier Saturday when the four-man crew decided the ocean was too rough and was rocked by a swell as they turned back into Oregon Inlet.
The last crew member left on the boat was able to recover two of the people, but Panchyshyn was not responsive and the crew lost sight of him while trying to recover him from the water.
Previous Story:
Coast Guard officials are searching for a missing boater who was thrown overboard in the vicinity of the Oregon Inlet after the boat he was in was rocked by a huge wave early Saturday morning.
Officials say around 8 a.m. a crew called the Coast Guard saying they realized conditions were too rough and decided to turn around. As they tried to return three of the four crew members were ejected from the boat when it was struck by a swell. The boat's operator was able to recover two but the third was unresponsive.
The crew lost sight of the 28-year-old male while trying to recover him. The crew also reported that the missing boater was not wearing a personal floatation device.
A Coast Guard MH-60 Jayhawk helicopter crew from Air Station Elizabeth City and two Coast Guard 47-foot Motor Life Boat crews from Station Oregon Inlet were dispatched to search for the man.
Ocean Rescue crews from Nags Head and Cape Hatteras, N.C. are assisting in the search as well as crewmembers of the Chicamacomico Fire Department.

After putting in long hours and wishing you could squeeze a few more in somehow, it often leaves you wondering, "How do I find the time to locate these candidates?"
Don't fret! TheLadders is here to help. We've compiled a few of the common oversights recruiters make when searching and posting on TheLadders, along with suggestions to help maximize your efficiency and time spent onsite.

Black Friday a thing of the past | News
SACRAMENTO - Not so long ago, the tradition was: eat Thanksgiving dinner; go to bed early; then wake up at some ungodly hour to hit the stores for Black Friday. Now, that tradition is about to change.
Walmart will start the first of three Black Friday sales at at 8 p.m. on Thanksgiving night. Last year, Walmart opened at 10 p.m., so they're pushing Black Friday back by two hours.
Sears is opening its stores at 8 p.m. on Thanksgiving night. Last year, they opened at 4 a.m. on Black Friday.
K-Mart will open its doors from 8 p.m. to 3 a.m. on Thanksgiving Day. Then they'll re-open for a second time on Black Friday. And you can expect other retailers to follow the trend.
The reason this is happening, is because of customer demand. Research has shown that people want to shop earlier.
According to the National Retail Federation, last year 24 percent of shoppers said they were at a store at midnight on Black Friday. Just two years earlier, that number was only at 9 percent.

The Quill & Quire talked to Rob Benvie this November about the audio accompaniment to his new novel, Maintenance. Sue Carter Flinn interviewed Benvie and wrote up the story:
The Edible City addresses the past, present and future of food in Toronto. Like its predecessors – uTOpia, GreenTOpia and HTO – the book is a mix of political advocacy, social history and reportage.
The December 2009 issue of the Quill & Quire listed Carla Gunn's Amphibian as one of the 'overlooked books' of 2009 – a list of titles that, in a just world, would have been blockbuster bestsellers.
In their words:
Your basic teen-attitude story in first person, present tense is now tediously commonplace. Nevertheless, there are occasional examples in which a sharp wit, a bitingly ironic voice, sheer quirkiness and Edmonton – yes, Edmonton – carry the day. The Mitochondrial Curiosities of Marcels 1 to 19, the debut novel from Jocelyn Brown, is one of them.
Claudia Dey's novel Stunt was chosen by Quill & Quire as one of 15 books to remember from 2008:
Despite my abiding conviction that a moratorium should be placed on poems about Glenn Gould (whose frequent appearance in Canadian poetry has made him into something of a verse cliché), I feel bound to admit that Jeramy Dodds imbues the clutch of Gould poems in his first collection with the same idiosyncratic brilliance that the famed concert pianist injected into his own art.
What would Lolita have been like if Nabokov had imagined a child obsessively, incestuously in love with a grown man, a man as capricious and oblivious as a little girl? What is Humbert Humbert and Lolita's roles had been reversed? The result would be Stunt, playwright Claudia Dey's first novel. Prefaced by a quote from Lolita, Dey's book begins as a Nabokovian delight, and Dey sustains this high level of writing throughout. The novel has lurking beauty, with strange pathways and a population of absurd characters.
At her best, Lang's disjunctive syntax and taut, oblique episodes can be hauntingly moving. But she tends to overdo the po-mo alienation; some of the best passages in the book come when she gives her sentences and lines a bit more room to breathe. The Work of Days could be fairly classified as confessional, but there is nothing self-indulgent in the collection – unless you count its unremitting, monochromatic seriousness.
Never mix business with pleasure. That's the moral of Jessica Westhead's new office novel Pulpy and Midge, whose titular couple strives to maintain a healthy balance of work and home life. Of course, balance can be heard to come by in a story about wife-swapping with the boss.
Pulpy is a pushover worker bee in an anonymous office, while Midge is his adorable, candle-obsessed wife. Together they present a sweet and sticky ideal of marital fidelity.
In fiction, homage is a tricky undertaking. Should an author indulge readers of the original, or satisfy those as yet unfamiliar? In The Girls Who Saw Everything, a resetting of The Epic of Gilgamesh in contemporary Montreal, Sean Dixon resoundingly chooses the former.
This is underlined by Dixon's creation of the Lacuna Cabal Montreal Young Women's Book Club, a crew of readers who deepen their understanding of literary works by acting them out.

Lovin that the big homie stayin in his lane. (lol fuc skinny jeans & emo rap)
Factoring in the length of service of Snoop's career dating back to 90′s,this last album doggumentary deserves a solid 4.After 20 years and there's still something on the album for everybody to have a go at it and the songs are from each one distinguishable from each other..but these days people would kind of congratulate the majority of the crap..if you were even born after Snoop's first record album came out don't even comment.

My bike came with them, in the 3 years of riding my bike has seen just about every part has been changed, all except my headset, seat post and shifters. If they didn't work great I would have changed them, I have no complaints with their performance when paired with a SRAM 5.0 cassette, PC-59 chain and XT derailler. Maybe I just don't know what I'm missing.
Yeah.i was recently searching for 8 speed components and had a very hard time. Online shops don't seem to carry 8 speed and if they do it is a very poor selection. Even Ebay doesn't have alot.
Or get some classic Suntour Expert 8sp thumb shifters. They are teh hawtness!

Why dont you try your LBS?? Or is this too much to ask?
because my LBS overcharges, is rude, has a bad selection, and overall is not worth supporting.
because i don't like 27speeds.
How about trying to find a local LBS other than the one that you went too. I know about five LBS and from what I have found out there's always one shop that has a hard part to get in stock. My particular LBS is a low budget Schwinn dealer that cater to the low end crowd. And he stocks up on parts that are old tech.
i have 2 lbs's. one is far away, one sucks. i dont like 27's because its simply too much. 21's are good, 24's pushing it imo. also, i don't want to buy a whole new casette, my casette is fine as it is. and i've heard bad things about 27's.
Such as?Originally Posted by revmonkey
well for one, i've heard that $hit gets in and because of the precision of the system, can mis-shift very easilyOriginally Posted by never
Maybe because he doesn't want to have to buy a new cassette or chain. I know I don't. I run XTR 8-speed with a Ti cassete on one of my bikes. It would bankrupt me to replace that with 9-speed XTR. The old stuff works great. I hope MTB doesn't get up to ten speeds like the roadies have.Originally Posted by Raiyn
So get a 9 speed and dump the baby ring in the front. Than you will be truly manly with 18.Originally Posted by revmonkey
BEsides, I am 90% sure you can use 9spd shifters on an 8spd cassette. My gf does it and I have done it in a pinch.
Or buy both http://www.bikeroom.com/Itemdesc.asp?ic=LD8400
If shi*mano has its way it will. Thats why I switched to sram. They hopefully have their head screwed on a little better than the nuts at shimanoOriginally Posted by duckliondog
This didn't work for me at all. It shouldn't work in theory either. The spacing between cogs is wider on 8-speed cassettes. The total distance between the largest and smalest cogs is the same, so if you mix and match, you end up shifting part way into some gears. You might as well use old school friction shifters.Originally Posted by Maelstrom
Well it has worked on 2 of my bikes and another buddies who was in a pinch. Kona releases (or release, in 2002 anyways) 3 bikes with this setup.Originally Posted by duckliondog
Acera (8spd) on lx (9spd) cassette. Theory or not. I have seen and made this work. Obviously you have to limit the deraileur to not go past the 8th gear. But this did work. In fact. It still works on my gf's 2002 Stuff which came with an 8spd cassette and 9spd shifter and has original parts.
You are right in a way, could be a lucky match. But I have seen this work a couple of times. Obviously it isn't the cleanest of shifting, but it does the job I am likely not as picky as some of the more xc oriented riders.
But ya...friction shifters was my next suggestion, that or grip shift
Ah, well, I guess life just isn't fair sometimes. Nor is life. You're right, it does work, just not to the degree I wanted it to. I was able to shift into all of my gears, I just hated the way it did it.

Warren Buffett
's investment company Berkshire Hathaway (
) disclosed its position of 1.6 million shares in Lee Enterprises
). This position is worth $2.1 million as of March 31, 2012.
Berkshire intended to keep the position confidential initially.
But his request to keep it confidential was rejected by the SEC.
Berkshire disclosed this position yesterday.
Lee is a provider of local news, information and advertising in
primarily mid-size markets, with 48 daily newspapers and a joint
interest in four others. It owns nearly 300 specialty
publications in 23 states. In the latest shareholder meeting,
Buffett said that the local newspaper will do okay in the digital
age. He also
bought newspapers from Media General (
) lately
. The stock of LEE closed yesterday at $1.15. It has lost 95% of
its market value over the past five years. The stock is up more
than 30% today.
In the past,
Warren Buffett
had kept positions while he was accumulating them confidential.
He did this with Burlington Northern and IBM (
). Eventually Berkshire bought all of the shares of Burlington
Northern. Today LEE has a market cap of only $58 million, which
is extremely small compared with the other investments
Warren Buffett
usually makes. Since Buffett tried to keep it confidential, it is
conceivable that he will continue to buy the shares.
To learn more about LEE, please read History of Lee Enterprises -
Buffett Is a 4% Owner of My Newspaper Company.
Apparently LEE is a cigar butt investment that Buffett does not
do that much of these days. What drives him to buy newspapers
now? Is Buffett Way off Base on Newspapers?About GuruFocus:
