Based upon a Calvinist understanding, God has eternally and unconditionally elected some to be the recipients of His loving salvation and has equally determined (one's perspective regarding the order of decrees is impertinent to this reality) those for whom there is no hope, even if they heard the gospel from God Himself and also could recite the gospel in every language in the universe.
Three historic confessions of faith have shaped the theology of many Southern Baptists since 1845 — the inaugural year of our convention in Augusta, Georgia. The intent of this article is to demonstrate that many early Southern Baptists were not solely and singularly rooted in Reformed theology as some so solemnly swear today.
The book is a collection of papers delivered at the 2008 John 3:16 Conference held at First Baptist Church, Woodstock, GA. Each paper dealt with one of the letters of the acrostic TULIP: Total Depravity, Unconditional Election, Limited Atonement, Irresistible Grace, and Perseverance of the Saints. In addition, several other chapters were added to address specific topics related to Calvinism.
The Particular Baptists, as Calvinists historically seem to do, slipped the other direction into so called "hyper-Calvinism." What that means, essentially, is an overemphasis on the sovereignty of God to the point of the loss of human freedom, and an eventual loss of any missionary motivation.
I don't think I would have enjoyed being around John Calvin. I think I'd probably feel that, behind his polite smile and bulging eyeballs, he was sniffing the scent of free-thinking upon me. In a democratic society that would be fine, of course, but in a Calvinocracy like Geneva, that would mean trouble for me.

NC groom killed in wreck on morning of wedding
Published: Saturday, September 12, 2009 at 6:36 p.m.
Last Modified: Saturday, September 12, 2009 at 6:36 p.m.
RALEIGH, N.C. (AP) A North Carolina groom on his way to his wedding has been killed after the car he was riding in was hit by another vehicle.
Authorities tell WRAL-TV that 28-year-old Christopher Raynor was ejected from the vehicle Saturday when another car slammed into it after running a red light in Raleigh.
Father Salvatore Busichio says he was to marry Raynor to Karen Taylor at the Cathedral of the Sacred Heart Church.
Busichio says he told guests about the wreck and the wedding turned into a memorial service for Raynor.
Busichio says the bride also spoke, saying she will always love Raynor.

5 charged in 9/11 attack resist Gitmo hearing
GUANTANAMO BAY NAVAL BASE, Cuba The self-proclaimed mastermind of the Sept. 11 attacks repeatedly declined to answer a judge's questions Saturday and his co-defendants knelt in prayer in what appeared to be a concerted protest against the military proceedings.
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed and four other men appeared for the first time in more than three years for arraignment at a military tribunal at Guantanamo Bay, charged with 2,976 counts of murder for the 2001 attacks.
The hearing quickly bogged down before they could be arraigned. The men took off the earphones that provide Arabic translations and refused to answer any questions from the judge, Army Col. James Pohl, dramatically slowing a hearing that is heavy on military legal procedure.
At one point, two defendants got up and prayed alongside their defense tables under the watchful eyes of troops arrayed along the sides of the high-security courtroom on the U.S. base in Cuba.
Prisoner Walid bin Attash was put in a restraint chair for unspecified reasons and then removed from it after he agreed to behave. Lawyers for all defendants complained that the prisoners were prevented from wearing the civilian clothes of their choice.
Mohammed wore a white turban in court; his flowing beard, which had appeared to be graying in earlier hearings and photos, was streaked with red henna.
Mohammed's civilian lawyer, David Nevin, said he believed Mohammed was not responding because he believes the tribunal is unfair.
Jim Harrington, a civilian attorney for Yemeni defendant Ramzi Binalshibh, said his client would not respond to questions "without addressing the issues of confinement." No further explanation was given.
Pohl warned he would not permit defendants to block the hearing and would continue without his participation.
"One cannot choose not to participate and frustrate the normal course of business," Pohl said.
He addressed the earpiece issue by bringing the translators into the courtroom to translate out loud and attempted to stick to the standard script for tribunals, asking the defendants if they understood their rights to counsel and would accept the attorneys appointed for them. The men did not respond, not even to acknowledge that they understood the questions.
Through much of the session, the defendants seemed to be trying to give the impression they were in a different world than the rest of the court.
Cheryl Bormann, a civilian attorney for bin Attash, appeared in a conservative Islamic outfit that left only her face uncovered and she asked the court to order other women present to wear "appropriate" clothing so that defendants do not have to avert their eyes "for fear of committing a sin under their faith."
And Binalshibh interrupted the session with an outburst from the defense table in a mix of Arabic and broken English, saying, "Maybe they will kill me and say I committed suicide."
Six 9/11 family members were in the courtroom with the defendants while more than 100 others watched the proceedings on closed-circuit video feeds in the U.S. Jim Riches, a retired city firefighter whose son was killed at the World Trade Center, said some people blurted out "C,mon, are you kidding me?" as the defendants became more disruptive.
In the past, during the failed first effort to prosecute them at the U.S. base in Cuba, Mohammed has mocked the tribunal and said he and his co-defendants would plead guilty and welcome execution. But there were signs that at least some of the defense teams were preparing for a lengthy fight, planning challenges of the military tribunals and the secrecy that shrouds the case.
The arraignment is "only the beginning of a trial that will take years to complete, followed by years of appellate review," attorney James Connell, who represents defendant Ali Abd al-Aziz Ali, told reporters gathered at the base to observe the hearing.

Aimed at consumer electronics, the multi-mode MEMS microphone offers a high Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR) within the low power mode, which enables voice controlled applications and maximises battery life.
The new microphone uses Knowles' low power, "Always On, Always Listening" technology to provide a high SNR component with the lowest power draw in the world – lower than the conventional analog microphone and analog-to-digital converter combination.

Lockitron: Keyless Entry Using Your Phone
Daily Tech Find
• $149.00 (Pre-order price)
• Lockitron
A friend and I got into a debate this morning about the Lockitron, an add-on deadbolt system which allows for remote opening and locking of doors using an app. He proclaimed it a "necessity" for his extended family and friends who regularly drop by; I consider it an example of an "automated luxury". But we both agreed Lockitron could be very convenient for granting access remotely with just a swipe...the simple design is tempting whether a necessity or luxury. And the best part is it fits over your existing deadbolt rather than replaces it, making installation simpler than other keyless entry systems.

Designed to work both in a hallway/room and also in times when you need a handheld flashlight, the Lite Plug will look great out in the open until its services are required.
Are You Making This Foolish PIN Password Mistake?
It doesn't take a rocket scientist to tell you most people are lax about password security...until its been compromised.

Do Adjustable Loft Beds Exist?
Good Questions
I'd like to move my 4.5 year old daughter to a loft bed to create more floor space in her tiny bedroom, but am feeling torn between a low loft which tends to average 45" off the ground and a higher loft which seem to average 70"- 72" high. Ideally, I'd love one that started low and could be raised - do these exist?
High and Low Tech Security Options for Bungalow?
Good Questions
Q: My brother and his girlfriend had a break-in Friday. Their little bungalow has a gate around it and a ton of morning glory vines that hide the house very well once you are in the gate. The vines make the house nice and private, but at the same time, once the burglar was in the gate he was free to dig through the house and steal away. Thought I would ask the Apartment Therapy peeps what might be some good security options for a single family dwelling on a quiet street with almost no foot traffic. Looking for both high and low-tech options.

The Department of Family and Consumer Sciences is very proud of our students who continue to be amazing in the classroom, with student organizations and in community service, graduating and taking positions in the region and nation-wide fulfilling our mission: to prepare professionals who help promote a better quality of life for individuals and families, enhancing the interrelationships of people and communities in diverse social, economic and physical environments.
In 2014-15 the Department had 11 Student Ambassadors who have assisted with Preview Days, Academic Major and Career Fairs, recruitment opportunities at area High Schools, and serving as judges at local 4-H meetings as well as corresponding with perspective students about their major. Over 300 high school students requested further information about our program during the year.
Spring and summer 2015 found our FCS students in a variety of locations gaining experience that will help them excel when they graduate and get their first job. The places they performed their field experiences included: David's Bridal Franklin, UTM Children's Center, Carl Perkins Center for the Prevention of Child Abuse and Neglect, Martin and Jackson, Kirkland's Martin, Jackson Madison County Hospital, Boutique MariMac, Paris, South Fulton School-Aged Summer Camp at S.F. Elementary, and Children's Services Obion and Weakley County.
Retention and Graduation Information:
The Department of Family and Consumer Sciences had a 89.5% retention rate in 2013-14 compared to UT Martin's retention rate of 70.8% for the same period for full-time first-time freshmen returning their sophomore year.
For 2013-14, 28 students graduated with an undergraduate degree in Family and Consumer Sciences while 10 students received masters' degrees.
Job Placement Rates: For 2013-14 graduates 46% were employed in careers within their degree major, 27% were employed outside their degree major, 15% went on to Graduate School and 12% were not employed. This is compared to the total for UT Martin of 40% of graduates being employed within careers in their degree major.
The Department saw the six year graduation rate from the Freshman Cohort in 2008-2014 of 56%. This is up 24.9% from the previous year's Freshman Cohort. This is as compared a 47.4% six year graduation university wide.
For the Department, credit hour production increased 2014-15 over the previous year by 11% for non-family and consumer sciences students at UT Martin taking courses in FCS. This is primarily due to the course Introductory Nutrition being included as a general education core from which all UTM students may choose and the minors that we offer in Nutrition, Gerontology, and Fashion Merchandising.
A big thanks goes out to our students and faculty for a wonderful year!
Note: Since we had less than 5 students graduating in 2013-14 that were in the Dietetics and Family and Consumer Sciences Education Program, Licensing and Credentialing information cannot be reported.
We welcome input from prospective and current students, alumni and friends. Alumni, let us know what you are doing so we share with others through Facebook (Key words: UTM Family and Consumer Sciences) and our Alumni Newsletter.

I like the editor (even preferring to edit the PBS manually), it is more friendly to the new users.
I agree to merge the External Editor functions with the debug menu. If you do this, please put a option to access the debug menu in Continue/New Game/Options selection and put a confirmation to some options that change the PBS, mainly "Reposition all".
-Back button works in some debug options (like battle versus a wild pokémon).
-When tests a trainer battle can select if it is single or double.
-Put coordinates entry in "Warp to map". Sometimes I get lost in my own maps! Every time that the option is pressed a random ones is generated for the ones who like the old way.
-An option to pokémon in Day-Care, if they can, generates a egg.
-An option to refresh the map ('$game_map.need_refresh = true'), because when I am debugging and changing the switches/variables sometimes I need to exit and enter again in a map to activate some events.
-In pokémon menu an option to change the happiness.
Maybe "Toggle menu" is useless?
Probably isn't necessary, but what you think about an option to test wild battle, but with a pokémon with edited moves to test the moves?

MADRID (AP) — Oklahoma City Thunder forward Serge Ibaka has been granted Spanish nationality, clearing the way for him to help Spain defend its European championship this summer.
Ibaka must swear loyalty to the Spanish crown and constitution to finalize the process after Spain's Council of Ministers approved his petition for nationality on Friday.
The 21-year-old was born in the Republic of Congo but played for Spanish clubs for three years before moving to the NBA in 2009. According to Spanish media reports, he maintains a residence in Barcelona.
Ibaka can join Los Angeles Lakers center Pau Gasol and brother Marc of the Memphis Grizzlies in a formidable front court for Spain.
The Europeans begin on Aug. 31 in Lithuania.

Clearing up Some Confusions
ENGLISH NOT BEING MY NATIVE TONGUE, I may be more sensitive to such things but I really think that the very common expression "he is a good man," applied indiscriminately to a boxer, preacher, teacher, businessman, medical doctor, or psychiatrist, is a rather infelicitous colloquialism. There would, of course, be nothing wrong with this expression, if its intended meaning were that whoever is referred to is indeed a good man, a good person. But in daily use, the expression "he is a good man" means that he is a good boxer, businessman, psychiatrist, and so on, which, when you stop to think, is obviously not the same thing. One may be the best doctor there is, say the best specialist in internal medicine or in psychiatry, and still leave much to be desired as a human being. Now I am not saying that people who use the expression "he is a good man" to praise an expert do not know that. It is just that it does not sound right, to me at least, not only as a relative newcomer to the English language but especially as a philosopher. Indeed, the fact that ever since Plato generations after generation of philosophers have recognized the importance of his distinction between a good carpenter, on the one hand, and a good man, without qualifications, on the other, is sufficient proof that there is more to this than linguistic sensibilities. For ethical theory, that distinction is absolutely decisive.
To elaborate on this distinction, let us again proceed by way of examples and common understanding of experience. And because our inquiry cannot do without it, I propose that we consider first of all the notion of "use." Consulting the dictionary, we find the following meanings for the verb "to use": to employ for some purpose, put into service, make use of, to avail oneself, to practice habitually

Pros: Tasty, great for many recipes
Cons: None
French's Onion Rings have become sort of as American as Apple Pie in a way. Every Thanksgiving homes are putting out the famous or infamous green been casserole topped with French's French Fried Onion Rings, even the health minded homes. We did it again recently for Easter. Unfortunately it didn't go over well. Everything was soggy. Usually it's a big hit. If you still love this traditional side just check the site or container for the recipe. I would suggest adding the onion rings at the very end to avoid a soggy state.Here's the original recipe for your casserole from the site to save you time.
1 (10 3/4 oz.) can CAMPBELL'S? Cream of Mushroom Soup
3/4 cup milk
1/8 tsp. black pepper
2 (9 oz. each) pkgs. frozen cut green beans, thawed*
1 1/3 cups FRENCH'S? Original or Cheddar French Fried Onions
1. MIX soup, milk and pepper in a 1 1/2 -qt. baking dish. Stir in beans and 2/3 cup French Fried Onions.
2. BAKE at 350?F for 30 min. or until hot.
3. STIR. Top with remaining 2/3 cup onions. Bake 5 min. until onions are golden.
Tip: You may substitute 2 cans (14 1/2 oz. each) cut green beans, drained or 4 cups fresh, cooked cut green beans
The French's French Fried Onion Rings also come in a Cheddar flavor.
If you aren't completely done with the green bean casserole try Crunchy Onion Chicken. The recipe is on the container but in case you want to read the recipe first and then decided whether or not you want to try it here it is:
1 1/3 C French's Fried Onion rings
4 boneless skinless,chicken breasts
1 beaten egg
Put French's Fried Onion rings in a plastic bag,(smash this up with a rolling pin or your hands into little crumbs).
Coat chicken (dipped in egg) in Onion Ring crumbs. Press firmly.
Place chicken on your baking pan and bake at 400 degrees for 20 minutes or until no longer pink . Easy and delicious.
French's Onion rings are also excellent in meat loaf . Use 1 cup of bread crumbs and 1 cup of crushed onion rings. Just a tip one cup of crushed onion rings are equal to one cup of bread crumbs. Try them on a Baked potato, Chili or canned vegetables to spark things up.

Can is 2.8 oz. You get 11 servings per can. It's a cardboard "can" with a red zip strip area you rip open to get to the contents.The lid will stay on for a bit once opened but with us we empty the can before anyone even My can is good until 2010, that's quite a long expiration time, they certainly do keep on the shelf. Mine even gave a time for use by:6:28 am. I thought this was quite funny.
What you see when you open the can are thin, thin slices of onions, some are even still in a circular shape. They are a golden color and about 1/4" wide but different lengths and shapes. They smell absolutely delicious, just like caramelized onion should taste but with a crunch. They leave a little shine of grease on your fingers and on the inside of the can but aren't overwhlemed with the grease flavor just the nice onion flavor and caramel.
Of course, these are wonderful on a salad, again add them at the last minute so they don't get soggy. Try them in a Waldorf Salad, they are a nice contrast to the Walnuts and Apples. We eat them out of the container when we are cooking with them as soon as a can is opened we're nibbling.

Operation Jail and Bail is raising money for the American Cancer Society.
During the two day event, several key folks, like the Supervisor of Elections, Shirley Knight and EMS Director, Brian Beasley are all handcuffed and put in a cage... leaving family and friends to bail them out.
Organizers say this is just one way the county is helping raise money for the American Cancer Society.
Janice Tyus, Jail and Bail Coordinator says, "The Gadsden county sheriff's office has several employees who battled cancer and we work with them trying to do all we can to raise money to prevent cancer to help our fellow employees."
Last Year, organizers raised $20,000 through several events, including the Jail and Bail.

Genetically Engineering Stem Cells to Target HIV Infection
AIDS/HIV disease is a viral infection that destroys the immune response. The disease can be treated with drugs, however these drugs do not eliminate the virus from the body. Hence currently the patient must remain on these drugs for the remainder of their life. These drugs are expensive and often cause toxicities, thus an improved treatment strategy for this disease is needed. Our project proposes pre-clinical studies to advance towards clinical trial a stem cell-based method of enhancing the patient's own immune response against the virus. This approach involves identifying anti-HIV receptors that will be introduced into the patient's own blood-forming stem cells. These cells will then be transplanted back into the patient, and the new receptors in those cells will direct those cells to turn into mature white blood cells that kill other cells infected by the AIDS virus (HIV). Since stem cells are stable following transplant, this approach has the potential to provide long-term immune control of virus replication, and may require only one or a few administrations. In this project we will perform all of the necessary pre-clinical development and characterization of this approach, and complete all of the necessary regulatory steps to achieve regulatory approval to begin testing of this strategy in humans.
The state of California and its economy are greatly impacted by AIDS/HIV disease. In 2007, the most recent year for which data is available, over 1100 Californians died from HIV disease. In 2008 nearly 68,000 Californians were living with an AIDS diagnosis. HIV infected individuals can be treated with anti-viral drugs, but these do not completely eradicate HIV from the body. Consequently HIV infected patients must remain on these drugs for the remainder of their life. These drugs agents are expensive and associated with toxicities. For these reasons a stem cell-based therapy that offered long-term control or elimination of HIV without the toxicities associated with current drug therapies would be advantageous. A stem cell-based treatment may have an additional advantage over current drug treatment in that it may need to be administered only once, or a limited number of times. Our proposed approach would provide a means to genetically engineer stem cells to enhance the patient's own immune response against the virus. It is possible that this approach could be used alone, or in conjunction with other therapies to provide improved control of HIV and prolong the life of the HIV infected patient.

In 2009, a global cabal of artists, designers, and scientists called the International Colour Association decided to create a day to honour—er, "honor"—color in all its forms. International Colour Day is now celebrated every March 21, since that's the spring equinox, the day when light and darkness are in perfect balance. All month, we're going to have Jeopardy!'s Ken Jennings with us, debunking a full spectrum of chromatic claptrap. Your trivia knowledge will soon be in the pink.
The Debunker: What Color Did Ninjas Wear?
Writing these "Debunker" columns, I often feel like a professional buzzkill. Is there something you think is cool? The red telephone between the President and the Soviets? Porcupines shooting their quills? Pirates making treasure maps? Yeah, none of these things ever happened. So I couldn't be more relieved to tell you today: ninjas were real. In medieval Japan, they were master spies, saboteurs, and assassins. The skulking across rooftops, the disguises, the darts and throwing stars—it's true. All of it.

BERLIN -- Tesco will move forward with plans to expand its Metro small-store format in London and other areas in the United Kingdom. The move will help Tesco's markets at a time when U.K. planning boards are making it increasingly difficult for retailers to open large stores virtually anywhere in the country. The chain, which now operates 21 of the smaller convenience-oriented supermarkets primarily in congested urban areas, will increase the number of Metro units to at least 30, and could ...

In the year ended Feb. 2, same-store sales fell by a whopping 25%. Penney lost $985 million, or $4.49 a share. The shares have plunged nearly 60%, to $15, since our story ran.

Johnson began with the backing of Penney's two largest shareholders: Pershing Square Capital Management and Vornado Realty Trust, which owned a third of the stock and held board seats. Last week, Vornado sold 40% of its stake and is likely to sell the rest. Johnson has already restored discounting, but Penney has cut 19,000 jobs, or 14% of the total, since the start of 2012.
The board is said to be giving Johnson's plan another year to work, and seems stuck with it in the way that passengers are stuck on a train hurtling toward a collision. "It's hard to see how a new leader can right the ship, given the massive changes being implemented, especially the 'store-in-a-store' concept, which is behind schedule," says David Berman, a hedge-fund manager and retailing expert who has derided Penney's overhaul since day one.
The stock market now values Penney at $3.3 billion, down from almost $8 billion last year. It is hard to see why it might be worth more, given the lack of buyers for a retailer with a national footprint and ongoing asset sales by rivals like Sears Holdings SHLD -0.29985007496251875% Sears Holdings Corp. U.S.: Nasdaq USD13.3 -0.04 -0.29985007496251875% /Date(1464382800337-0500)/ Volume (Delayed 15m) : 1115144 AFTER HOURS USD13.3 % Volume (Delayed 15m) : 148 P/E Ratio N/A Market Cap 1420014390.32898 Dividend Yield N/A Rev. per Employee 141270 More quote details and news » (SHLD).
Penney owns 426 of its 1,100 stores and has cheap leases on the rest, but Vornado's willingness to cut and run calls their value into question.
That, in turn, is creating concerns about liquidity. Penney has $930 million in cash and a $1.85 billion credit line. If same-store sales fall another 10% in the first quarter, Penney will burn through $400 million in cash, says J.P. Morgan. Hedge-fund investor Berman foresees "vendor panic over a steadily worse balance sheet."
Rick Snyder, an analyst at Maxim Group, thinks Penney's real estate is worth roughly $50 per square foot. That would not be enough to cover Penney's $2.9 billion of debt. Snyder's price target on the stock is $10, about a third lower than it fetched last week.

There should have been a few words for Webber's pit crew after the race, though...a 3.3 second pit stop to change tires, while Hamilton's crew managed to change out tires AND his steering wheel in the same amount of time. Then Vettel's pit crew pulls off a 2.6 second stop. With Alonso hot on his heels, Webber did NOT need a slow stop. Good race by Webber, could have been better but yet again he gets bit by his KERS.

Skip to comments.Presidential hopeful's son held (Loaded gun at airport)
Posted on 04/26/2007 5:57:20 PM PDT by Cornpone
Little Rock - The son of a US presidential candidate was arrested at an Arkansas airport on Thursday with a loaded pistol in his carry-on luggage - a week after his father said the Virginia Tech shooter could have been stopped if other students or teachers had been armed.
David Huckabee, 26, later pleaded guilty to the misdemeanour of possessing a weapon in a prohibited place.
Both he and his father, Republican presidential candidate Mike Huckabee, hold a concealed weapons permit.
Neither the former Arkansas governor nor David Huckabee returned telephone messages seeking comment.
Huckabee had a .40-calibre Glock pistol in his black carry-on bag, Little Rock police officer Arthur Nugent said.
Eight live rounds were in the gun - none in the chamber - and a nine-round clip was in the bag.
It is not unusual for people to forget they have a gun in their carryon luggage, Little Rock police's Terry Hastings said.
A US transportation security administration spokesperson said Huckabee - whom she declined to identify by name - was co-operative and that other passengers had not been endangered by the incident.
Huckabee got a one-year suspended jail sentence and 10 days of community service.
He will be on probation for a year.
Fines and costs totalled $855.
TSA can seek separate civil penalties, the TSA spokesperson said.
Gun laws to the law abiding are harrassing taxes.
I predict Huckabee will get more votes from the 2nd amendment rights folks. :)
But I'll be voting for Duncan HUNTER, another strong 2nd amendment rights candidate.
Ahh, yes, the new Sword of Damocles. Now, BOW to your Masters.
One would think that a son of a Presidential candidate would know that you don't take a firearm on a plane.
Why, he merely forgot that his daddy has not yet been elected...
.40 cal Glock with a spare mag. Sounds like he just came from the range.
What a busy day!
He will be on probation for a year.
Fines and costs totalled $855.
And loss of his CCW permit.
After all the security measures, I learned keep my gun stuff away from my traveling stuff. That includes clothing and shoes.
He probably should receive a harsher sentence for being stupid.
"...arrested, pled guilt, and got a years probation..."
The wheels of justice do seem to be working pretty fast here...
Who does he think he is, a Dallas Cowboys coach?
Talk about life in the fast lane!
These articles, including the VT saturation coverage, endlessly refer to a semiautomatic pistol magazine as a "clip".
I don't want to shoot with anyone who doesn't know the difference between a clip and a magazine.

It probably doesn't apply here, but I heard rumor of a Federal CC Permit several years ago. Aparrently these are VERY hard to get and held almost exclusively by Congresscritters and their buddies. The word I heard is that with one of these you can carry ANYWHERE, even on planes and such. Is it possible that his permit was one of these and the guy that busted him didn't realize that he was covered by it and the "best PR" way out was to quickly "ajudicate" the mess so it would go away?
LOL! Who's that nekkid guy shooting on the 25 meter lane? Oh, that's Shooter 2.5, he's flying tomorrow. An image I could've lived without. Blackbird.

Trigger finger on the mouse?
Huckabee might actually be a worthwhile candidate if he wasn't owned by the open borders lobby. BTW, I agree with you about Duncan Hunter. I'd like to see him get some traction.
Duncan Hunter seems to have a lot of grass roots support. Yesterday somebody called Mark Levin praising Hunter, and I hear it all the time on various talk shows.
Truckers are STRONGLY against illegal immigration, so when I'm up late, I intend the call the all-night show for truckers, The Truckin' Bozo radio show, re: Hunter's EFFECTIVESNESS (had a double fence built) on illegal immigration.
Hunter has been the most EFFECTIVE, as far as I can see, on illegal immigration. He gets things done.
Here's a question that I submitted to politico.com/debate/ but there are so many questions for folks to vote on, I don't know if it will be asked:
by Sunnie on 04.26.2007 at 01:15 PM
Question is for: Duncan Hunter
Topic Is: Immigration
I feel that you have been the most effective candidate in actually accomplishing the tightening of our borders by having a 14-mile fence built, which greatly lessoned crime in San Diego. As president what will you do to further secure our borders?
8 live rounds (better than dead ones) and a spare magazine in the bag???
Hmmmm, sounds like a Glock model 27 (baby glock)...
He sure did get shuffled through the judge and jury fast enough...
I guess if I can get my Dad to register as a candidate for President, I can screw up like this and it only cost me $855, suspended sentence and some community service...
All because I don't remember what I have in my carry on bag...
True intelligence means knowing where ALL your guns are...
All mine are in a safe, except the one I carry which will give me a chance to get to the good stuff that no one wants to be on the recieving side of...
Seems reasonable to me...
Get your Dad elected governor of your State, and you might have even better luck...
Yeah, I'm just trying to get him to run for County Sheriff...
He says it looks like too much work...Geesh...
But you can, just not in the carry on bags or on your person. All you have to do is unload it, unload the magazines and put the rounds in a box, preferably the original box, but I believe a plastic box made for the purpose will be OK as well. Then tell your airline about it.
I found myself out of town in Orlando, and discovered a box of .45 ACP (Remington Golden Sabers) in my duffel. I don't normally use that one when I fly, but do when I drive. However the trip was long, the weather cool, and thus I needed the larger piece of luggage as well as the smaller one, but didn't release I had not taken the ammo out of the duffel's pocket. Thus I traveled to Orlando with it in the bag, didn't declare it anything. On the return I declared it, they asked if was in the original packaging, it was, and that was that. Told the TSA folks it was in there as well.
I cold have just a well had the Witness or 1911 in there as well. I imagine it would have been a bit more dicey if it had been discovered before I'd declared it.
More likely it's been increased. We know there are more sky marshals, and we know that cops other than Federal can also carry on an aircraft. Some pilots, after having undergone a ridiculous amount of training, and becoming Federal Flight Deck officers (Heaven forbid that mere civilians could carry a weapon on an aircraft, even if they are the people flying the thing), can also carry on board. The pilots should be able to carry or have handguns on board, but I'd like to see no more training required than that for a CHL/CCW in most states. A long day's worth at most, and get rid of them being Federal Officers.

"The Simpsons" starts off another season of Fox's Animation Domination Sept. 29
A new season of Fox's Animation Domination debuts at 7 p.m. Sunday, Sept. 29 with premiere episodes of "The Simpsons," "Bob's Burgers," "Family Guy" and "American Dad."
Summaries of the episodes, provided by Fox, are as follows:
"Homerland" is the milestone Season 25 premiere episode of "The Simpsons," airing at 7 p.m. In a nod to the hit cable series "Homeland," Lisa (Yeardley Smith) suspects that Homer (Dan Castellaneta) may have been "turned" when he returns a changed man from a nuclear power plant operating convention. So she enlists the services of Annie (guest voice Kristen Wiig), an intense, jumpy FBI agent to help her unravel the truth.
On the Emmy Award-nominated "Bob's Burgers," (airing at 7:30 p.m.). the Belcher family goes on a camping trip to make up for the one Tina (Dan Mintz) couldn't attend with her Thundergirl troupe. But things quickly go from bad to worse when they discover that Bob (H. Jon Benjamin) didn't bring any food or supplies in the "A River Runs Through Bob" Season Three premiere episode.
Next, at 8 p.m., is the Season 11 premiere episode of "Family Guy" titled "Finder's Keepers." Peter (Seth MacFarlane) is convinced that a restaurant placemat is a treasure map. Word quickly spreads about the alleged cache, sparking a city-wide search and turning the citizens of Quahog against each other.
The Season Eight premiere of "American Dad" titled "Steve and Snot's Test-tubular Adventure" airs at 8:30 p.m. In the episode, Steve (Scott Grimes) and Snot (guest voice Curtis Armstrong) turn to the CIA's cloning machine to churn out two willing ladies for the upcoming high school prom. But when the device produces two uber-fast-growing newborn babies, the boys must break out their fathering skills to ready them in time for prom night.

"columbia, south carolina" Top 5 Page for this destination Columbia by doug48
Columbia Travel Guide: 217 reviews and 295 photos
columbia is the county seat of richland county and the capital of the state of south carolina. columbia is located on the broad river in the center of the state. columbia was founded in 1786 and was incorporated as a city in 1854. prior to the civil war columbia was a important transportation hub. much of the cotton grown on south carolina plantations was shipped north by rail through columbia. in december 1860 the south carolina secession convention met at columbia's first baptist church. by a vote of 159 to 0 south carolina voted to seceed from the union. during the civil war columbia was a important manufacturing and transportation hub for the confederacy. in february 1865 the forces of union general william t. sherman burned down much of the city. during WWI camp jackson was established in columbia. during WWII camp jackson was expanded and renamed fort jackson. today fort jackson is still an important segment of columbia's economy.
for the tourist there is much to see and do in columbia. columbia has a number of historic buildings and homes in the downtown historic district. columbia is home to the south carolina symphony and has a very nice zoo and botanical garden. the downtown five points and vista areas have a number of good restaurants and lively bars. for college football fans columbia is home to the university of south carolina. columbia is a very worth while stop when traveling through south carolina.
in february 1865 union general william t. sherman's army during the carolina's campaign marched to columbia. columbia was defended by general wade hampton CSA but he was greatly out numbered by sherman's army and surrendered the city. once in the city sherman ordered the destruction of the rail road depot, warehouses, and machine shops. the old state capitol was burned as well as the interior of the new state capitol and "millwood" general wade hampton's mansion. downtown liquor stores were looted by union troops which led to drunken solders setting fire to downtown buildings and homes. some historians maintain that the fires were set by the retreating confederate troops but considering the burning of the interior of the new state house and wade hampton's home one can easly come to conclusion that the fires were set as union revenge. the burning of the cities of atlanta, marietta, and rome georgia, jackson mississippi, and the towns of athens, decatur, and selma alabama also show a union policy of burning towns after they were captured.

The International Cricket Council banned then-skipper Salman Butt and team mates Mohammad Asif and Mohammad Amir following the Lord's Test against England after the News of the World tabloid broke the story about spot-fixing in the match.
The trio were also handed jail terms by a London court in 2011 but have now returned to Pakistan after serving their sentences.
"I don't think the scandal will haunt us and we are now mentally prepared to play in England for the first time since the incident," Misbah told Reuters on Thursday.
"It has been three years since the scandal and the players have made a conscious effort to project a positive image of Pakistan cricket with positive results. There is more discipline and unity in the team."
The 38-year-old said the controversy had damaged the squad's image around the world.
"We see the Champions Trophy as an ideal opportunity to redeem ourselves in the eyes of our supporters in England because there is a big Asian community there," Misbah added.
He said the players were now given regular anti-corruption briefings while the Pakistan Cricket Board has indicated it will bring in a special vigilance officer for the Champions Trophy to monitor the movements of the squad.
"We have never won this tournament and the way the board is backing us I think we can surprise a lot of people," said middle-order batsman Misbah.
Pakistan have been drawn in Champions Trophy Group B along with South Africa, West Indies and India.

Show transcribed image text A warning annunciator is needed in a design that you are working on. In a discussion with several of your colleagues, several say the two circuits given in Figure P2.54 are equivalent, others say that the one on the left is better, while the remainder recommend the one on the left. Assume that the driver is an SN74LS04 and that the diode requires 1.25 mA to turn on. To settle the debate, you decide to do a complete analysis of the circuit. Figure P2.54 Based on your analysis, which configuration will give the brighter light? Which configuration will consume more power? What are the noise margins for the two configurations if one additional SN74LS04 device is to be driven? The circuit in Figure P2.59 has been proposed for turning a level into a pulse. Figure P2.59 Analyze the circuit using the min-typical or typical-max delay ranges from the vendor's data sheets for the parts you are using. What is the worst case variation on the width of the pulse based on your analysis? What are your thoughts on the design?

King's quarterback Billy Green verbally committed to Brigham Young after flying to Provo, Utah, Monday to take one more look at the school...
King's quarterback Billy Green verbally committed to Brigham Young after flying to Provo, Utah, Monday to take one more look at the school.
"It's the old quote of when hard work meets opportunity," King's coach Jim Shapiro said. "That's Billy Green. Man, he's worked his butt off. He's surrounded himself with some good people and, at the end of the day, it's his own work ethic."
As a junior last season, the 6-foot-2, 196-pound passer took over as the Knights' starter and completed 182 of 277 passes for 2,397 yards and 40 touchdowns, leading King's to the Class 1A quarterfinals.
Brigham Young was the first Division I program to offer Green a scholarship, but he was drawing interest from several Pac-12 programs.

"He was down at the BYU showcase with 25 other quarterbacks from around the country and he beat them all out," Shapiro said. "He was the guy that did a great job down there. I think BYU is a good fit for him with his faith background. He was looking for a good community, a good academic institution and a quarterback university. That's BYU."
Green is the second consecutive quarterback at King's to commit to a Division I university, joining Thomas Vincent, who is a redshirt walk-on at Washington. Former Skyline quarterback Jake Heaps spent the 2010 and 2011 seasons at BYU before transferring to Kansas.
• Central Kitsap's Katie Lee and Washington State's Kristen Rue, last year's co-runners-up, are among the notable golfers who will compete in the Washington State Women's and Senior Women's Amateur championships Tuesday through Thursday at Rainier Golf and Country Club.
Katie Lee, coming off a victory at the Washington State Champion of Champions, will try to win a year after her sister, Erynne won last year's WSGA title.
• Stacey Hagensen from Pacific Lutheran has been nominated for the NCAA Woman of the Year award, which will be announced Oct. 14 in Indianapolis.
Hagensen of Bellevue's Newport High, was a four-year member of the Lutes softball team, earning multiple personal awards as well as leading PLU to its first NCAA title.

We have Andrew Gerber's owner of Graphite Memories coming to make art right in front of your eyes, a Caricaturist, our Face painter will be back for one last evening, and kick up your heels and come learn and enjoy some Country line Dancing starting at 6 pm . Then at 8 pm put on your dancing shoes and come dance the night away as the Double Barrel Band kicks up the music for our annual street dance.

Did spend at lot of time at Disneyland, though.
My secret...hmmm...Jack hates fireworks!!! So during Wishes, we ride the TTA. There is something special about just the two of us riding it...

I remember on one of those rainy holidays in Wales, I was watching some morning tv show with Roland the rat, TV AM perhaps? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roland_Rat for those who havent been blessed by Roland Rat )
Anyway, they had a feature live from some place called Orlando. The presenter did her spot from right in front of the Magic Kingdom castle with loads of kids and then showed round some of MK. It just looked like the happiest, most fun place in the entire world! I remember saying that's where I wanted to go for our next holiday and being told it really wasn't going to happen
so it was pretty much the first thing I did when I was able to pay for myself and we've been going ever since
