Kris Jenner uploaded a sexy bikini photo to her Instagram. The Huffington Post reported on Jan. 8 that the Kardashian matriarch uploaded a Flipagram video with photos of her adventures.
The Flipgram included photos of her family, her adventures, exotic locations, magazine covers and her daytime talk show. She also snuck in a sexy photo of herself in a bikini.
Jenner is seen lying back in a tiny black bikini. Her arms are outstretched along the ledge of the pool. She captioned the photo, "Celebrate Life".
Fans wondered if the sexy bikini photo was recent. In fact, it was taken from a 2012 photo shoot by photographer Nick Saglimbeni. She took the photo for Australia's New Idea magazine.
There's no reason why she included the photo, as it stood out from the other photos. Critics think that Kris uploaded the photo to take attention away from her daughters. The mother is always thirsty for self-promotion and for publicity.
This isn't the first time she uploaded a photo of herself in a bikini. The 58-year-old also shared a sexy bikini photo last September. She made headlines for flaunting her assets in a royal blue string bikini.

I'm trying to track down a process that kills my mysql server on my CentOS box.
I have the following setting in
*.*;mail.none;authpriv.none;cron.none /var/log/messages
I assume that this should cause all messages (including kernel messages) to be logged to
/var/log/messages, except for
cron messages.
Yet, when I view
/var/log/messages, I don't see any kernel messages that appear to be killing the server.
Here are the full contents of the
/etc/syslog.conf file:
# Log anything (except mail)
# Don't log private authentication messages!
*.*;mail.none;authpriv.none;cron.none /var/log/messages
# The authpriv file has restricted access.
authpriv.* /var/log/secure
# Log all the mail messages in one place.
mail.* -/var/log/maillog
# Log cron stuff
cron.* /var/log/cron
# Everybody gets emergency messages
*.emerg *
# Save news errors of level crit and higher in a special file.
uucp,news.crit /var/log/spooler
# Save boot messages also to boot.log
local7.* /var/log/boot.log
I have restarted syslog, but it makes no difference.
Any ideas?

A mumps outbreak at Ohio State University has state and federal officials concerned that additional cases will be reported before the outbreak subsides. Investigators also reported that of the 28 cases, all but one of the individuals received vaccinations against the mumps virus.
According to a March 18 report from Reuters, "officials are concerned the number could rise with students returning from spring break, a city health department spokesman said on Tuesday."
The CDC recommends that young children receive two doses of the MMR (Measles, Mumps, and Rubella) vaccine.
However, Jose Rodriguez, spokesman for the Columbus Public Health Department, said "even within folks that are vaccinated, they are still at risk of illness," stating that likelihood of a vaccinated individual getting mumps is at "10 to 20 percent."
Rodriguez said most of those infected had received at least one MMR vaccination and cautioned that additional cases are likely expected. "The possibility is always there for more cases," Rodriguez said. "With the long incubation period mumps has, it is a recipe for a prolonged outbreak."
The incubation for mumps, which onset with painful swelling of the salivary glands, can be anywhere from two weeks to close to a month, though the typical period is 16–18 days.
The Columbus Public Health Department and the CDC is asking that students receive a second booster shot, if they only had one, and if any students or faculty have not had an MMR shot, the school is recommending they get one.
The outbreak has raised controversy over those in anti-vaccine camps, as well as those who state that "herd immunity" does not offer protection within largely vaccinated populations.

Emerson predicts a knockout
Interview by David L. Hudson
In combat sports records can be quite deceiving. You can take a fighter with an undefeated record but it could be built on a row of tomato cans in boxing or mediocre opposition in low echelon promotions in MMA. Then, there are other fighters whose records are quite deceiving – they've consistently fought tough competition and have endured some losses.
Rob Emerson is one of those fighters. His professional MMA record is 8-7 and he lost his first four professional fights. That's right his record stood at 0-4. But, a closer look reveals that he made his pro debut against Jens Pulver, a UFC champion and legend of the sport. He has dropped fights to Kurt Pellegrino, Melvin Guillard and other tough fighters. On September 19th he returns to the Octagon at UFC 103 to face Rafael dos Anjos, a warrior who has dropped his last two fights.
Emerson took the time to speak with Fightnews about his upcoming bout, his career and other topics.
Talk about the challenges you face with Rafael dos Anjos who is coming off two losses in the Octagon.
I look at it as both of us are fighting for our jobs. He lost his last two and I lost my last fight in the UFC. I think he has more of a ground attack and is good with leg locks. I am sure that he wants to take me to the ground after I hit him. He does have good cardio and leg attacks so it will be a good challenge.
You started your career 0-4 – was that tough on you?
It was more an experience factor that I didn't have it early on. Dude, you could have a guy with a 10-0 record if he didn't fight anybody. I've always felt that you get the best experience from the guys you fight. I fought a bunch of tough dudes early but I benefited from it and it made me that much tougher.
What was it like facing Jens Pulver in your first professional MMA fight?
It was cool. I was a huge fan of his and I was thinking how awesome it was that I was fighting him. Little did I know what was in store for me. I was in the worst shape I've ever been in in my pro career, but it was a good learning experience.
What are your goals in your career?
I want to break into the top 10 by the end of the year or 2010 at the latest.
Almost all of your losses are by decision. Is that heart and refusal to quit or what?
Part of it is that I'm a tough guy but part of it is that I am not aggressive enough. I'm tough enough to often stop guys from imposing their will on me and stopping me but in the past I haven't gone ahead and tried to impose my will on my opponents. But, things will change. I am in a complete different camp and have been working with B.J. Penn.
What has it been like working in the Penn camp?
It's crazy awesome. I mean there are many world-class guys here; it's a totally different situation for me now.
What was the experience of The Ultimate Fighter like?
It was a great way to get into the UFC that's for sure. I basically went there for the experience and it was worth it. I fought some tough guys.
Are there any particular fighters that you'd like to face in the near future?
No, I am not looking for anyone in particular. I just want to focus on performing well and improving as a fighter.
What about avenging some of our losses?
I think about it. I guarantee that I could beat every guy that beat me in the past. They did not beat me because they were better fighters than me. I'm in much better shape, more focused and just a better fighter now.
Any prediction for the fight at UFC 103 against dos Anjos?
I'm going to knock him out dude. I don't think he's strong enough to take me to the ground. I'm just looking to go out there and knock him out.

text: Dec 5, 2012 01:29 Chamber, school officials discuss magnet program Chamber, school officials discuss magnet program BY HEIDI KINCHEN| Florida Parishes bureau Comments AMITE —A member of the Hammond Chamber of Commerce said the organization would be willing to support a proposal to expand magnet educational programs throughout Tangipahoa Parish. However, the group would prefer the plan be funded through a parishwide tax, rather than an increase in Hammond's magnet millage, chamber member Greg Drude told the Tangipahoa Parish School Board on Tuesday. School Board member Brett Duncan has proposed the school district expand its magnet programs and create regional attendance zones to enhance school choice and competition throughout the parish. He has said the plan would require no new taxes, but would require a renewal or possible increase of Hammond's existing 9-mill ad valorem tax supporting magnet programs in the city. The magnet millage will expire after this school year. Duncan said his proposal would help desegregate the parish's schools and negate the need to build three new elementary schools and significantly redraw attendance lines as required under the school district's court-ordered desegregation plan. Construction of the schools would cost an estimated $54.5 million and require annual bond payments totaling $4.5 million, according to system documents. Duncan said the district can ill afford to make those payments while facing a projected deficit of $12.1 million for 2013-14. Duncan spoke to the chamber's Education Committee earlier Tuesday about his proposal. Drude said it was a plan the group could accept. The School Board already has been successful in implementing magnet programs in Hammond, Drude said, and "we would like to see them continue to grow, not just in Hammond but throughout the parish." Drude said, however, if only Hammond taxpayers would be financially supporting magnet programs, the chamber would want assurance that any potential increase in their millage would remain in the city. "For us to support it, we need to feel safe that if we pass an extra millage, there's no shifting of funds," Drude said. Get The Advocate in your inbox Subscribe

Infinitesimal : how a dangerous mathematical theory shaped the modern world
Alexander, Amir
Pulsing with drama and excitement, Infinitesimal celebrates the spirit of discovery,innovation, and intellectual achievement-and it will forever change the way you look at a simple line. On August 10, 1632, five men in flowing black robes convened in a somber Roman palazzo to pass judgment on a deceptively simple proposition: that a continuous line is composed of distinct and infinitely tiny parts. With the stroke of a pen the Jesuit fathers...

The Captive Maiden: Happily Ever After …Or Happily Nevermore? by Melanie Dickerson, published by Zondervan is an action-packed romantic teen fiction – a retake of the Cinderella story with another twist – a good story (unfortunately weakened by poor editing).
Gisela, an orphan, is the victim of her wicked stepmother and stepsisters who use her as a maid and treat her cruelly. Gisela dreams of her "prince" and sneaks out to tournament where Valten, the duke's son, will choose a queen of love and beauty to invite to the ball. Gisela's beauty does not go unnoticed but the forces of evil personified in her stepmother plot not only to destroy Gisela's chances with Valten but also to destroy her life.
Gisela soon finds herself prisoner to Valten's worst enemy, Reuxler. And although Valten sets out to rescue her, the situation goes from bad to worse. Mentions of God, prayer, and salvation are creatively woven into the story and boosted by the presence of a delightful traveling evangelist.
As a romantic fairystory of times-gone-by when ladies wore extravagant long gowns and men entertained themselves by jousting and sword fighting, The Captive Maiden will likely appeal to most young women and teen girls. Some might find the protagonists' frequent kissing a distraction, but the tale is nonetheless entertaining.
The overall writing, however, is poor. Some sentences are hard to understand or illogical. Others have silly mistakes such as "a door creaked opened" (page 243). The word "but" is often used where "and" would seem appropriate. This book could have benefited from a few more times around the editing block. Let's hope Zondervan takes this into account before releasing a sequel in the series.
If you live in San Diego and want to learn more about writing and editing, check out the San Diego Christian Writer's Guild.
A similar version of this story will also appear in Assist News Service.

They are suitable for use in both hot and cold climates with no loss of traction, even on full-depth reclamation and paving jobsites. Evertire Inc. www.everpads.com..
The Adjustable manhole cover/frame system is designed to be paved directly into the pavement surface, rather than the concrete infrastructure. It enables shock from traffic to be transmitted to the subsurface, rather than the manhole itself. Also, if the road should heave or settle, the floating system allows the frame to move with the surface, eliminating the need for expensive repairs. Several frame and cover sizes are offered. Mueller Co. www.muellercompany.com..
The Stehr SKF 950 manhole cutter attaches to your skidsteer. It can dry-cut through asphalt at a rate of 1 inch per minute, letting crews work quickly and efficiently.

This electronic grade control system is designed to help users accurately place uncompacted asphalt. The product models a string line numerically, using the ground as a reference for all thicknesses to be placed. It reduces paving time by eliminating string-line setup, averaging beams, and laser setup/ calibration. It automatically computes compaction allowance for varying paving depths, generating an accurate compacted fill thickness to create a smooth surface. PaveSmart. www.pavesmart.com..
The Maximizer 3 asphalt distributor includes the company's EZ Spray in-cab computer system, and a hydraulically controlled, variable spray bar that reaches widths up to 16 feet (or 20 feet with an added option) for tack and chip-and-seal jobs.

Life at Oracle Russia: Stanislav, Tech Sales Manager
By Maria Sandu on May 27, 2014
Oracle is a place that brings together talented people from various countries and with a diversity of backgrounds. We often invite our employees to speak about their life at Oracle as we think It is important to share an insight into what working for our company looks like.
This time we asked Stanislav to speak about his experience at Oracle. He is Technology Sales Manager at Oracle Russia. He joined the company in July 2011 as a Sales Representative for the Financial sector and had previously worked for another American IT company. He was promoted to a Management position in 2013.
"I have been in this Industry for 15 years and I am now Technology Sales Manager, covering Database, BI and Fusion Middleware products. What I've learned in my role is that respect is one of the most important values a good professional should have. By respecting and embracing everyone's opinions, we create a very good work environment that encourages innovation and change. It eventually leads to a stronger team where people listen to each other and value each other's opinion. On the other hand, It is mandatory to have good knowledge about the area you work in and to continously seek to improve your expertise. Last but not least, working as a team is a top priority and It is something that I've learned at Oracle. There's little you can achieve by yourself comparing to what you can do when you're part of a team."
Stanislav shared the top three words that best describe his team and those were: professional, dynamic and smart. "The team I manage is a very professional, dynamic and smart one. I am really proud to work with such talented people! They are an asset to the Oracle business because they are the very best in the IT industry worldwide!"
When asked why he would apply at Oracle if he was looking for a job, Stanislav responded "I would say because Oracle is a legend of the IT industry. It is a very dynamic company where you can fulfill your potential and gain extremely valuable knowledge. No doubt this is the number 1 IT company!"
We invite you to explore our career opportunities on

Published: Monday, August 19, 2013 at 11:46 a.m.
Last Modified: Monday, August 19, 2013 at 11:46 a.m.
A man wanted for more than two months in connection to what police have called an attempted murder had been arrested, according to warrants.
Alton Raymel Carney, 21, of 115 Converse Drive, was in the Davidson County Detention Center on Monday under a $500,000 secured bond. He was previously indicted for felony attempted first-degree murder and felony assault with a deadly weapon with intent to kill inflicting serious injury.
Carney makes the fourth person who has been arrested in connection to the June 4 shooting that hospitalized 44-year-old Sonny Ray Clodfelter. The shooting occurred on Jamaica Drive.
Carney was taken into custody Wednesday and placed in the Duplin County Jail. Davidson County Sheriff's Office transport officers traveled to Duplin County and brought him to the detention center in Lexington on Friday.
Carney, Michael Obrien McNeair, 24, Jerome Demarco McNeil, 25, and Laquanza Shanta Wilson, 34, were arrested in connection to the incident. The Davidson County Grand Jury also indicted McNeair and McNeil each for assault with a deadly weapon with intent to kill inflicting serious injury and possession of a firearm by a convicted felon. McNeil also was indicted for attempted first-degree murder. The charge of conspiracy to murder a man was dropped against Wilson due to "insufficient evidence of intent," and she was not indicted by the grand jury, according to court records.
Clodfelter, who emergency officials said suffered a gunshot wound to the waist, was not listed as a patient at area hospitals days after the shooting. Additionally, police said the four suspects fled the scene before authorities arrived.
LPD Maj. Mark Sink said the incident was a result of an altercation between Clodfelter and the four people, which occurred shortly before the shooting. Police have not said what caused the altercation.
The incident occurred outside and was near an apartment operated by the Lexington Housing Authority.
Carney was scheduled to have his first appearance Monday in Lexington District Court.

I want to know how is Dart handling or going to handle the graphics part. I know about WebGl but its written in javascript. Dart does have api for it, but would it get something of its own. A 3d library made for it. and also in just your opinion what is the future of 3d/2d/etc on web. I know for the fact that websites will become like apps. I know that the technology that is eventually going to win is has to be open source otherwise a company could just take on a direction of its own. I also think that gap between 3d graphics and 2d as is used in websites will narrow down. And for this matter flash has the answer(meaning to make something appear you use language A and to just make it 3d you use language B, which is not correct way, as both are graphics.) but it belongs to one company. But all other stuff like webgl, opengl,and unity is too complicated and works on very few places. Mobiles and desktops will have same kind of graphical power, except size...which i am not sure given googles 3d glasses.
I so wanna learn flash...but not. It doesnt need to be this way to make a button you use css and html, but to make it 3d without hacking you go learn 1 tons of libraries and whole javascript.

Product Description
The superior alternative to sand - for better filtration & water quality! Made from 100% natural minerals, Zeobest replaces sand in your filter for greater water clarity, purity, and quality.
can you mix silica and zeosand
Hi, You can not mix Silica Sand and Zeo Sand together, you will have to use one or the other.
How do you change the sand in a sand filter?
We have a really good guide with video here on How to replace the sand in your swimming pool filter
What is Zeobest? Is it safe?
Zeobest is a great alternative to regular filter sand. It provides DE like filtration (filters down to 3 microns), it's lighter than sand so you half the amount compared to sand. It can also decrease the frequency of backwashing. Without getting scientifically complex Zeobest comes from zeolites. Zeolites are the deposits of volcanic ash from thousands of years ago. It is NSF approved which means that it meets national health and safety requirements. It's also safe to use in all sand filters.
So if I have a sand filter that takes 175# of sand what of your product do I need?
If you have a 175 Lb. sand filter then we would suggest 87.5 lbs. of Zeobest (175 / 2) Since the Zeobest is only sold in 25 lb. increments you would need to purchase 100 lbs. You may view the 25 Lb Zeobest here http://www.inyopools.com/Products/01300006001557.htm and the 50 Lb. Zeobest here http://www.inyopools.com/Products/01301202001558.htm

Reviewed By:
Brother Rain
from Port St Lucie, FL
Pros: Much better clarity.
Cons: A bit expensive compared to sand.
I could see right away I needed to replace the sand. Probably been there since the installation back in the '80's. The Zeobest was different in texture and I could see right away why it was better before I even put it in the filter (Triton II). Turned the filter on, backwashed, ran the filter and within hours I could see the pool was getting cleaner and the water had a lot better clarity.

Approximately 200 service men and women from the New Jersey National Guard helped celebrate National Blood Donor Month by giving blood at the 4th and Goal Blood Drive held earlier this month at the Sun National Bank Center in Trenton.
"Our troops help protect us each and every day of the year, and having them on hand to support New Jersey residents in need of blood is just another example of their selfless work on behalf of our state and our nation," stated Lt. Kim Governor Guadagno, who took part in the event along with New Jersey Health Commissioner Mary O'Dowd, Brigadier General Michael Cunniff, the Adjutant General, Department of Military and Veterans Affairs and Kevin Rigby, Vice President of Novartis Pharmaceuticals Corporation.
"January is National Blood Donor Month and we face a critical blood shortage because of the extreme cold temperatures earlier this month, flu activity and the fact that blood supply is always low after the holidays, noted O'Dowd, while Brigadier General Michael Cunniff commended the troops under his command for their continued community support and relief efforts.
"More than 2,300 troops were activated during Super Storm Sandy for relief efforts. Their contribution to this blood drive is just one additional way they work to support the residents of the state," he stated.
Note: The blood drive was New Jersey's final event in an 8-month Super Community Blood Drive campaign leading up to Super Bowl XLVIII on Sunday, February 2, which has collected over 160,000 units since its inauguration. The program, was just one of several charitable programs chosen by the 2014 NY/NJ Super Bowl Host Committee, which joined forced with the state's Department of Health, and the New Jersey Workplace Donor Coalition to bring it to fruition, under the sponsorship of the Novartis Pharmaceutical Corporation.

The all-time wins leader at Wyoming University, Joe Le Blanc, begins with a 2 on 1 that was his most effective tie up for scoring. Le Blanc shows how the 2 on 1 tie is an effective control tie and a great way to limit the offense of one's opponent.
The main way to secure the tie comes from the opponent's collar tie. Coach Le Blanc secures the 2 on 1 with a "monkey grip" (all five fingers acting as a hook) at both the upper bicep and the wrist. Next, he steps in tight with his near leg, and stands the opponent up. (So, if a person is a left leg lead, they will prefer to control the opponent's right arm.) Coach LeBlanc completes this sequence by demonstrating the basic set up for most takedowns: make the opponent step with the leg that will be attacked.

The study also showed that jewelry products were most likely to contain high lead levels, and it uncovered a variety of tainted items, including bedroom slippers, bath toys and card-game cases, according to the Journal.
Certain toys had more than five times the standard safety level, including a Hannah Montana card-game case, which had a lead level of 3,056 parts per million, the Journal said.
Millions of toys have been recalled this year, with most involving Chinese-made products.

Situation Highlights Issues That Local Law Enforcement Faces With Illegal Immigration
The national quandary of illegal immigration has significant local ramifications on budgets and public safety.
Sheriff Lee Foster says that one local case in particular highlights how local law enforcement, first responders and health care providers often are the ones left picking up the pieces when the system fails to work as it should. A flawed system that pits locals against the federal government and then against the state.
Anselma Rico-Martinez, 27, of Tarrant Street, Newberry, appears to suffer from serious mental health issues but often becomes aggressive toward others or commits acts that endanger herself and others. The Newberry Police Department has had numerous dealings with her and she has been arrested seven times since March 8. Rico-Martinez displays obvious signs of mental illness and is combative to the law enforcement and correctional officers, who are forced to deal with her.
When the correctional officers contact the Department of Immigrations and Customs Enforcement (ICE) as required by law, ICE refuses to deport her because she is mentally ill. So, law enforcement transports Rico-Martinez to the emergency room for medical/mental evaluation. Rico-Martinez is often combative with their staff as well, but because Rico-Martinez is an illegal alien she is not eligible for placement with the Department of Mental Health. Hospital staff is forced to provide emergency care and then release Rico-Martinez back onto the public, and the vicious circle starts all over again.
In fact, on at least one occasion Rico-Martinez has not even made it from the parking lot of the hospital of the immediate area before law enforcement is called and her actions dictate that she be arrested again.
After a recent arrest, she was released from jail after serving a determinate sentence and due to her actions in the jail; she was taken to Newberry County Memorial Hospital's ER for treatment and placement. However; because she is illegally in the country, an official with the South Carolina Department of Mental Health said she is not eligible for treatment. The hospital released her and she walked to a nearby shopping center where she confronted customers and standing in traffic hitting cars. Police officers arrested her and she was again placed in the Newberry County Jail. A local magistrate released her stating she was mentally ill and did not belong in jail. He advised the jail staff to take her to for mental health help. Since it was the weekend the only place available was back to the local hospital. The hospital again released her. She did not clear the doors of the hospital before she got into confrontations with patrons of the hospital. She was released from custody again and then broke into a car and stole some personal items from the car so she was arrested again.
"An enormous amount of time and tax payer dollar is being expended on this woman, not to mention the danger she is to herself and the public" said Sheriff Foster. "Worse yet, there simply seems to be no end in sight to the situation. While some agencies chose who they accept and decline first responders such local law enforcement and public safety must deal with every person they encounter, good or bad. We must see a move to support the local first responder because I have long said you cannot have homeland security without hometown security."
Sheriff said that from his understanding of the law introduced in South Carolina regarding illegal immigration would offer no assistance in this situation or those like it because deportation lies solely with ICE. The state government cannot compel the federal government to take action. We can only notify them, as we have done in this case, and they have to take action.
"This is a most frustrating situation but is endemic of a problem that is going to have to be dealt with so that nightmares no longer take place," said Foster.
"This is a prime example of a federal problem that they refuse to deal with and just dump it on the local government. The federal government has failed to stem the tide of illegal immigration, yet when there is a problem in the local community with illegal immigrants, they have the luxury of saying they can't deport or detain someone because they are mentally ill," said Foster. "Then due to state laws and policies, not to mention lack of insurance, the state government won't help because this individual is illegal. This puts it back on the local government to deal with creating bureaucratic double talk that resembles an episode from M*A*S*H."
Sheriff Foster said that he had an idea that may help the local tax payer in this situation. "I am going to do is figure up the cost of this problem and bill the federal government for this, said Sheriff Foster. "I realize the possibility of collecting anything from the federal government is minimal. I am also going to ask the county attorney and/or the SC Attorney General's Office to assist in efforts to sue members of the federal government that refuse to act."
Anselma Rico-Martinez has the following arrests:
March 8 – Disorderly Conduct (Released April 6)
April 7 – Shoplifting (Released April 23)
April 30 – Assault and Battery (Released May 3)
May 4 – Disorderly Conduct, Open Container, Resisting Arrest (Released May 25)

"Loving my new "summer sombré" courtesy of Vasi! He has been doing my hair for a while now and I have always had wonderful experiences. I love going to see him! Vasi is an exceptionally talented stylist who has a super nice, friendly, positive personality. He not only has great ideas for my hair but he also takes the time to really understand what I want (even when I'm not great at verbalizing it) and spends however much time is necessary to achieve that look."
–Lisa N.
"I put a lot of faith in Yelp, but when it comes to my hair, I'm extra critical. After reading all of the five-star reviews for Studio Vasi, I decided to see what all of the fuss was about. Before even touching my hair, Vasi spent fifteen or twenty minutes giving me a consultation. This was the first time I've ever had a stylist do this, and I never knew just how important this was. He got to know me, my personality, my lifestyle, and what I like to see when I look in the mirror. His energy was AMAZING! I love the length of my hair and I always thought I would have to do something drastic to change up my look. The color was perfect, and the cut gave me the edge I wanted without taking too much length. Vasi worked his magic and I left there transformed. Their Kevin Murphy products are amazing too. I highly recommend this place!"

Skip to comments.Obama Mouthpiece Responds to Trump's Position on Obama's Forged Birth Certificate (Jay Carney Video)
Posted on 05/29/2012 4:08:16 PM PDT by Red Steel
Jay "The Clown" Carney Responds To Trump's Position on Obama's Forged Birth Certificate - VIDEO HERE - H/T SA.
And video here too
These idiots in the media don't seem to have a clue what's going to happen in the near future as Trump knows.
Carney, get your resume ready; you'll be going down with Obama. ;-)
get their resume ready??
people need to understand... this is a conspiracy to defraud the country ONTOP of forgery
there is jail time in the future for these people
I doubt if anything will bring the Marxist/Muslim usurper down, but it's fun to see Trump needle him.
Sounds like a resume enhancer for the typical Democrat party member. ;-)
Why oh why doesn't anyone ever ask about his college transcripts and the millions obama has spent hiding the truth? So simple.
These idiots in the MSM do know the truth, or at least expect it, but they're doing everything possible to protect Obama.
Why don't they interview Trump if they're so eager to get to the truth?
5. "Ridicule is man's most potent weapon. It is almost impossible to counteract ridicule. Also it infuriates the opposition, which then reacts to your advantage." Saul Alinsky, Rules for Radicals (Obozos playbook)
The news is starting to pick up. The White House responds. ;^)
>there is jail time in the future for these people<
Only if the other two branches of government have the spine to pursue the subject, but I very much doubt that they do.
Yes, there is a conspiracy ongoing among both the pubbies and democraps and a whole bunch would end up in jail if ever the truth came out.
That's why there will always be a coverup.
The LSM news tonight said that this issue was resolved long ago and that by raising it, Trump is causing problems for Romney!
Sorry, I don't know which network it was. It just happened to be on and I don't watch the network news shows often enough to know who is who because of crap "reporting" such as this.
They are asking, Trump brought up the college records today on CNN. He also mentioned that the main reason to see the records is not to see what a crappy student bambi was, we can all assume that, but what he gave as his place of birth. So far he has claimed Hawaii and Kenya.
So far Mittens is not falling for the media whine and ruse.
When they find the Obama fraud team and forger(s), the roads all lead to Obama and his downfall even if he is out of office.
in which case we are not a nation of laws.
either the law applies to EVERYONE, regardless how uncomfortable or inconvenient, or the law applies to NOONE
that also applies to Amendment 16
uphold the laws or the rest of us will stop paying for services (govt) that isn't delivering as spec'd
I think every press conference and/or every question to Carney, Obama, or any of his flacks needs to begin with, "You have the right to remain silent. Anything you say can and will be held against you in a court of law...."
Just to cover all the legalities...
Why is Jay Carney holding a press conference for Romney?
I do hope you're right.
The only impediment that I see to your thery is that there are still too many gutless politicians who will try to hide the truth from the American people because their asses are on the chopping block, too.
And when the truth finally does come out, let the hammer fall to such an extent that no one in his right mind will ever try again to deceive this nation the way it has been since 2008.
Let the guilty suffer the most extreme consequences for this national deception.
Just to cover all the legalities...
It took trump over a year to figure this out?
He got smacked down by the fake bin laden story and crawled into a hole.
The usual play by the liberal media to taunt the Rat opponent to denounce the Obama fraud issue when it is brought up by someone prominent or the issue starts to get steam.
All Mittens has to do is stand fast and be persistent and consistant as well as Trump. The media will over time start will come across as a bunch of babies to the public who will begin to suspect that there is something to it. But I'm sure much of the public already do suspect the media of BS bias. Many people let the media do their thinking including people on FR. Just be persistent by not giving in and the media game of taunts will fail.
You know Arpaio sure won't quit.
Yes, you hit the nail on the head. Nobody is held accountable anymore. The USA is a nation of laws, many sets of them even. Which set are you required to obey?
The body language is very surprising. Carney looks very displeased to talk about this issue and he was trying very hard to formulate a non-answer to the question. I laughed when he said that some people in the opposition party are criticizing McCain for defending the Kenyan Coward on this issue.
Well, that girl in Texas, the one who was sent to jail and fined by that jerk of a judge for truancy, has been held accountable. You know the story, the girl who worked two full-time jobs supporting her abandoned siblings and is an honor student who was too exhausted to go to school one day so the judge thought he'd make an example of her. She was held accountable.
I fear for Sheriff Joe to the extant I suddenly saw an image of a fake group of Mexican Mafia members trying to hit Joes home and family, fake as if they were dressed and armed to give the impression they are coming from Mexico.

Summit County Attorney David Brickey is one of five nominees announced for a vacancy in the Third District Juvenile Court. The nominees were selected by the Third District Judicial Nominating Commission after the retirement of Judge Andrew A. Valdez on Nov. 1.
Other nominees include Steven Beck (Lead Attorney, Salt Lake County District Attorney's Office), Tracy Mills (Attorney, Office of the Guardian ad Litem), Sophia Moore (Attorney at Law) and Tupakk A.G. Renteria (Deputy District Attorney, Salt Lake County District Attorney's Office).
"I'm certainly honored to have been one of the finalists," Brickey said. "We'll see what happens. I have a couple more interviews with the governor, but it's up to Governor Herbert."
If selected to fill the vacancy, Brickey would not seek re-election as Summit County Attorney, which he previously said he is interested in doing. If selected, he would be obligated to take the position.
"Part of the application process is that if you put your name in, you'll [agree] to serve the Governor's Office," Brickey said.
Written comments about the nominees can be submitted to the Third District Judicial Nominating Commission Chair Deirdre Straight at firstname.lastname@example.com or the Commission on Criminal and Juvenile Justice at P.O. Box 142330, Salt Lake City, UT 84114-2330. The deadline for comments is noon on Dec. 23.
After that point, Gov.

dark was the night, as inspiration
I know I'm late posting about this and I'm just another voice talking about it at this point. Well, let's say it's good enough that it's worth another voice.
Sometimes a compilation album comes across that's more than a collection of good songs; it's inspiration, in auditory form.
By sometimes, I mean about once every ten years. The last one I remember was the Lounge Ax Relocation and Defense CD.. It inspired me in a number of directions: the indie rock of Seam and the post rock of Rachel's. (Those are still two of my favorite bands of that era.) It was the first place I heard Shellac, June of 44 and the Mekons.
Much like that Dark was the Night, put together by the Dessner brothers of the National, is the sort of compilation that inspires one to listen to new music. Granted, it has good National tracks and Bon Iver tracks. We knew it would, after all. Where it succeeds is its lesser-known tracks.
The gorgeous Riceboy Sleeps track, for instance, is a great track from a band I'd never heard of[1]. Ambient, instrumental and sprawling, it's just beautiful. The Yeasayer track, a medium slow groove with layers of percussion and clapping and tightly wound but melodious vocals, makes me want to give them another try.
The many collaborations are also something to note. The Books with Jose Gonzalez (covering Nick Drake) put together a good track, as do Feist and Ben Gibbard. David Bryne sings on a Dirty Projectors track. Antony with Bryce Dessner put together a simple and gentle cover of Dylan's "I Was Young When I Left Home."
Now I'm not saying every track is a winner, but I think what's important here is that, as a whole, the compilation is good enough to get you from beginning to end, to hear those tracks and bands you wouldn't hear if you were skipping around to a few choice track. I'd recommend getting it.
the National – So Far Around the Bend (mp3)
Bon Iver – Brackett, W9 (streaming)
Riceboy Sleeps – Happiness (streaming)
You can pick up Dark was the Night on amazon
[1] Of course, I now know that it's a side project from a band I do know (Jonsi of Sigur Ros' side project).
Update: rewrote parts of it.

Deloitte's Insights for CFOs provides financial executives a customized resource to help them address the strategic, operational and regulatory issues they face in managing their finance organizations and careers, with top-line digests, research, perspectives and technical analyses.
More than half of 357 M&A executives surveyed for Deloitte's latest corporate development survey expect the number of deals aimed at acquiring innovation, including entrepreneurial and new business models, to substantially increase over the next two years, but only 20% believe their team is well prepared to manage the increase. The survey found that many corporate development organizations have begun building up their M&A capabilities to be better equipped to drive and manage innovative deals, and to become a "preferred acquirer."
The FASB's amended guidance on the classification and measurement of financial instruments retains many current requirements, but also significantly revises an entity's accounting related to the classification and measurement of investments in equity securities. Deloitte's "Heads Up" newsletter discusses changes to the guidance, including how the FASB amended the presentation of certain fair value changes for financial liabilities measured at fair value, as well as certain disclosure requirements associated with the fair value of financial instruments.instruments.
The slow pace of regulatory reforms in the Shanghai Pilot Free Trade Zone (FTZ) has frustrated some multinational companies but Ken DeWoskin, senior advisor to the Chinese Services Group, Deloitte LLP, says the FTZs create an opportunity for companies to work directly with regulators to propose ideas to improve their operating environment in China. He also discusses FTZ reforms made thus far and the prospects for further liberalizations.
CFOs expressed a substantial bias toward growing revenue and investing cash over lowering costs and returning cash, despite the fact that their capital spending expectations remain muted, according to Deloitte's fourth-quarter CFO Signals™ survey of more than 100 CFOs from large North American companies. CFOs also indicated a bias toward growth in current geographies over new ones, and 47% of CFOs indicated their companies are focused on new offerings over old ones, with 38% citing the reverse.
The growing number and complexity of cybersecurity risks facing investment advisers (IAs) have triggered an increased interest in cyber risk management by the SEC, including a planned sweep of more than 50 registered IAs and broker-dealers. Learn more about the documentation SEC examiners likely will request and six areas of focus that organizations may want to address as they prepare for an examination.
Research validates that venture capital fundraising and IPOs are on the rise, with favorable investment outlooks continuing in cloud computing and mobile technology. According to the 2014 Global Venture Capital Confidence Survey from Deloitte and the National Venture Capital Association, global investor confidence in the U.S. significantly increased for the third year in a row, driven by favorable capital markets, abundant investment opportunities in innovative companies and a strong investor climate.
Chinese investors have been riding the U.S. commercial real estate (CRE) wave, perhaps motivated by the gradual shift in the Chinese government's policy to promote outbound investments and their preference for investing in real estate that provides comparatively modest and stable returns. Learn more about what the Chinese investment strategy in CRE in the U.S. could mean for U.S. real estate players.
Despite a harsh winter that took a toll on growth for U.S. businesses, mid-market executives report more confidence in growth prospects and are accelerating strategic business investments, according to Deloitte's latest survey of more than 500 mid-market executives. Only 23% of respondents say that their company is deferring major investments due to uncertainty, down from 43% a year ago.
Cyberrisk management should run throughout an organization to include the active involvement of the CEO and board, according to a panel at the recent Deloitte LLP Alternative Investment Symposium. Learn how developing a plan to share information, identify vulnerable assets and boost cybersecurity protection can help fund managers, and executives from other industries, defend against cyberthreats.

June 13, 2013: With so many social media networks to choose from, it can be difficult to determine what's really valuable to your business. Based on multiple user surveys and research studies, it has been determined that the "big 3" of social media platforms include Facebook, Twitter, and LinkedIn. Each platform poses unique opportunities for B2B marketers to create brand awareness, generate leads, interact with clients and perspectives, and gather valuable information about what's happening in the industry.
In this post, we'll focus on LinkedIn and identify which professional groups are the most essential for B2B marketers to join via the LinkedIn network. This compilation of 12 LinkedIn groups is based on multiple factors, including number of members, frequency of updates, and validity of content. Take a look at the following groups and determine how your B2B initiatives could benefit from becoming a member:
1. Digital Marketing – 349,268 members
Members of this group engage in daily discussions about relevant digital marketing topics such as content marketing, social media marketing, site traffic, lead generation, email marketing, and more. This is a group in which people can reach out for answers, advice, opinion, and feedback and receive responses from a wide range of professionals. The Digital Marketing group is also a space to share pieces of content (i.e., news, blog posts, research) with other members who may find the information useful.
2. Social Media Marketing – 608,345 members
For B2B marketers looking to expand their expertise in social media, this is an excellent group to help them do so.

Shared content and interaction within this group ranges from senior level social media professionals to "rookies" seeking guidance.
3. Inbound Marketers – For Marketing Professionals – 92,092 members
B2B marketers can engage in compelling discussions in this group by asking questions about some of the "hot button" issues in inbound marketing and receiving feedback from others. The intent is not to promote yourself or brand through this group, but the occasional "plug" does happen and is accepted if it's relevant and helpful to the group.
4. eMarketing Association Network – 525,073 members
This group is devoted to everything related to internet marketing. Topics such as social, email, search, and mobile are discussed on a daily basis with regular updates from several internet marketing industry thought leaders. Content updates range from personal blog posts to internationally known sources.

5. Media Professionals Worldwide – 315,889 members
For a broader look at the media industry as a whole, this is a useful group for staying up to date on the most recent news and announcements. While this group is not explicitly intended for internet marketers, it offers an opportunity for professionals across the globe to network, share information, discuss business associations, seek career advice, and explore job openings.

For anyone from professional SEO and SEM experts to freelance bloggers there is an abundance of relevant information regarding Google, content development, web design, PPC campaigns, link building, keyword research, social media, and much more. Members of this group post updates daily and are actively involved in discussions with each other.
9. Official Direct Marketing Association – 22,190 members
The Direct Marketing Association (DMA) is a company that focuses on data-driven marketing strategies and techniques; this group is a LinkedIn extension of the organization's mission. Members of this group are given access to the insights that DMA has to offer along with content updates shared from fellow members. This group encourages marketers to engage in conversations and discussions with one other that will drive direct marketing efforts.
10. Google Analytics – 21,200 members
In B2B marketing, analytics data is a critical element in how campaigns are developed, executed, and monitored. For new analytics users or experienced veterans, this group is a space to share Google Analytics knowledge, advice, questions, insight, feedback, and more. Members of this group have access to the latest updates regarding Google Analytics that can come from a wide range of sources; it doesn't necessarily have to be someone who has Google Analytic Individual Qualification.
11. B2B Lead Roundtable – 14,216 members
This LinkedIn group focuses on B2B lead generation and demand generation programs. The purpose of this group is to share ideas, best-practices, and information about lead nurturing, lead management, teleprospecting and more. Members of this group have the opportunity to ask questions related to B2B lead generation and engage in discussion with other members.
12. Marketing Automation Association – 2,716 members
Created by the Marketing Automation Association (MAA), this group aims to better connect marketing organizations with clients and prospects. Within the group forum, marketers can engage with MAA representatives and other members to discuss, enquire, and share knowledge about web analytics, lead management, social media, lead nurturing, SEO/SEM, campaign management and more.
This is by no means an exhaustive list; we are confident that there are dozens of groups that would positively impact B2B marketers. However, we've found the LinkedIn groups outlined above to be the most valuable in terms of engaging with experts in the industry and attaining credible information. If you have had a valuable experience with other LinkedIn groups for B2B marketers, we would love to hear your recommendations.

Final keyword in Java
By manveen on Mar 04, 2008
The Final keyword is used in Java on an entity that cannot be changed.
Here are a few different contexts in which final can be used:
Final class:
Meaning: A final class cannot be subclassed. Advantage: Security or efficiency. Example: java.util.System
Final method:
Meaning: The method cannot be overridden in a subclass. Advantage: Preventing unexpected behavior crucial to the functionality of the class.
Final variable:
Meaning: The variable is immutable, meaning once assigned, it cannot be reassigned. This is different from constant keyword since constant should be known at compile time and final need not be. Advantage: Optimization.

Disease Proof
Superior Health is Up to You
Do not expect to receive valuable health advice from your typical doctor. Physicians usually do not help; they rush through their patient appointments, especially in the current HMO climate, because they are paid so poorly for each visit and are pressured to see as many patients as possible each day. Your physician is likely doing just as poorly as you are and eating just as unhealthfully or worse. With proper nutritional intervention you could improve his health and reduce his risk of premature death more than he could help yours. Even when physicians offer their fullest time and effort, their recommendations are invariably too mild to have a significant benefit.
Drs. Randall S. Stafford and David Blumenthal, of Massachusetts General Hospital in Boston, reviewed the records of more than 30,000 office visits to 1,521 U.S. Physicians of various specialties and found that doctors measured patients' blood pressure during 50 percent of the visits. However doctors tested their patients' cholesterol levels only 4.6 percent of the time. Physicians offered patients advice on how lose weight in 5.8 percent of the visits, and suggestions on how smokers could quit 3 percent of the time. On average, doctors gave patients advice on dietary and other changes that can help lower cholesterol in 4.3 percent of the visits, and advice on exercise in 11.5 percent of the visits. When records were reviewed in those who had cardiovascular disease, the typical (almost worthless) dietary counseling and exercise was usually never even mentioned.1 Obviously we have a long way to go.
1. Stafford, R.S., and D. Blumenthal 1998. Specialty differences in cardiovascular disease prevention practices. J. Am. Coll. Cardiol. 32 (5): 1238-43.
I totally agree with the statement "Superior Health is Up to You" In my experience doctors are very limited in their understanding of health as a whole. Some are very good at diagnosis while others take a more trial and error approach (I felt like a test rat sometimes) They are also good at knowing which drug on the market is related to the diagnosis and will often write a prescription.
However when it comes to individuals health most are far removed. It is up to the individual to be a self-doctor, or in other words 'care' enough to understand the nature of their problem and to seek changes. Personally I found that the advice given by Dr. Fuhrman is one of the best I have found yet and the most effective when treating medical conditions, most of which are incurable by current medical science.
