Quick Reaction:
This will forever be known as the night Jeremy Evans committed the most exciting offensive foul in the history of preseason basketball, as tweeted by @djjazzyjody. His fellow sophomore Gordon Hayward didn't fare as well, fouling out with 3 points and 4 turnovers.
Rookie Enes Kanter (18 mins, 4 pts, 5 rebs) didn't contribute much to the point total but stayed active and seemed to make things happen. I'm impressed with him, overall. He moves well for a guy his size and seems to know what he's doing on the floor.
Fellow rookie Alec Burks (12 min, 1 pt, 0/8 shooting) couldn't finish to save his life, but brought good energy. Burks didn't want to hear any comparisons to Wesley Matthews, saying he (Burks) just wants to attack the basket every time and make things happen. His confidence is never lacking, which actually bodes well for a guy who will be asked to stay ready and be ready to attack in small stretches.
Jamaal Tinsley saw his first action as a Jazz player, finishing with six points, six rebounds, and three assists in just more than a quarter's worth of playing time. Tinsley's appearance led to a second-half stretch with newcomer Josh Howard sharing the court with Tinsley. On reputation alone it was an interesting post-Sloan sight to see, even though both players have been nothing but cordial and positive about being in Utah and seem to be great fits with the rest of the team.
On the Blazer side of things, it was interesting to see Jamal Crawford and Raymond Felton in Portland uniforms. Crawford finished with 12 points while Felton had 17. That's 17 extra portions of the pre-game meal along with 17 points. Only one of those is true.
The announced attendance was 15,367, with the cranky crowd making plenty of noise for a preseason game. All things considered, the Jazz have to be happy with the turnout.

Associated Press
Politico is calling it "Mitt Romney's moment."
On Tuesday, one of Romney's biggest potential threats to winning the GOP nomination, New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie, announced that he's not running for president in 2012.
Additionally, a new Washington Post/ABC News poll revealed that the former Bay State governor is leading his chief rival, Texas Gov. Rick Perry, by nine points (25 percent to 16 percent).
Florida polls out earlier last week showed Romney leading the field in the critical early primary state. Public Policy Polling had Romney (30 percent) ahead of the Southern-state favorite Rick Perry by 6 percent.
Of course, with Romney's success comes new pressure.
"He's now under intense pressure to consolidate the Republican establishment behind his candidacy and build up the coveted and self-reinforcing sense of inevitability his candidacy has lacked to date," wrote Politico commentators Jonathan Martin, Maggie Haberman, and Ben Smith on Tuesday, adding that "there were some signs in the hours after Christie's decision that the movement to Romney had begun."
Indeed, even before Christie decided against a run, New York Times' David Brooks came out "in defense of Romney."
"Romney can be dull. Political activists like exciting candidates," Brooks wrote in his column. "… It's exciting to have charismatic leaders. But often the best leaders in business, in government and in life are not glittering saviors. They are professionals you hire to get a job done. The strongest case for Romney is that he's nobody's idea of a savior."
Yet, Brooks is just one of many to start gravitating toward Romney.
"A lot of us who normally would have been in this presidential race a long time ago, have been waiting for Christie to make a decision," said Georgette Mosbacher, a big-time Republican fundraiser and the finance co-chair of the Republican National Committee who is now getting behind Romney, according to an article in Capital New York.
Mosbacher joins New York's big money grocer and real estate tycoon John Catsimatidis in joining Romney.
Perhaps more impressive than pulling in Mosbacher and Catsimatidis is Romney's ability to pull in Jamie Dimon, the CEO and chairman of JPMorgan Chase, who according to Politico, used to admire Obama but recently attended a Romney fundraiser.
All this lends credence to the idea that "Romney will now have a fresh opportunity to consolidate support among established Republicans who have been keeping their options open," according to Dan Balz's article in The Washington Post. "The former Massachusetts governor also will have a freer hand to go after some major fundraisers who have stayed on the sidelines looking for a seemingly more appealing candidate to come into the race."
Of course, with a war chest that could, by some reports, total more than $15 million, Texas Gov. Rick Perry isn't going anywhere.
As Rep. Tom Cole R-Okla. told Politico, "I could see Perry-Romney stretching out over several months."

U.S. CORNERSTONE: July 1 will mark the opening of LVMH Moët Hennessy Louis Vuitton-owned Berluti's premier stateside Maison — the brand's new flagship store concept that debuted in London in June and will roll out to Paris, New York, Shanghai and Tokyo later in the year. The 1,840-square-foot boutique at 161 N.E. 40th Street in Miami's Design District will also be the first American sales point for the brand's ready-to-wear, launched last year.
Designed to fit in with the tropical setting, the white, gallery-like space features parquet flooring and touches of color, such as freestanding furniture clad in purple leather. Photos by Slim Aarons deck the walls, while the store's centerpiece is a pool table designed by Ora-ïto and beach huts inspired the fitting rooms.

SpaceX's Dragon Spacecraft Has Arrived at the ISS
SpaceX's Dragon spacecraft arrived at the International Space Station this morning, where it was neatly snagged by the station's 57-foot robotic arm.
SpaceX's Dragon spacecraft arrived at the International Space Station this morning, where it was neatly snagged by the station's 57-foot robotic arm.
SpaceX's work in reusable rockets will get another push as scientists prepare Sunday for a launch and subsequent landing of the Falcon 9 rocket tonight.
SpaceX has been teasing potential Mars plans for a while now, but the company just announced a launch date—and it's soon. They plan to launch to the surface of Mars in 2018.
SpaceX's Dragon spacecraft is making its first cargo trip back to the International Space Station (ISS) since its June attempt ended unexpectedly with the ship exploding itself, and its cargo, in mid-air. Watch today's launch happen live right here at 4:43 p.m. (EDT). Don't be late!
Hidden for centuries, an ancient dragon bursts forth, with only the tree roots that've grown around its skeleton keeping it from taking flight. What brought this mighty mythical creature back to life? What will happen next? And what, exactly, are the reactions of those two human figures at the left?
Ever since the shuttle program ended, NASA has been paying Russia to ferry U.S. astronauts to the International Space Station. But the price-per-seat aboard Russia's spacecraft has gotten ridiculous. The solution is clear and cost-effective: The US needs its own space taxis. So why won't Congress pay for it?
NASA Thursday named the first four astronauts who will fly on the first U.S. commercial spaceflights in private crew transportation vehicles being built by Boeing and SpaceX – marking a major milestone towards restoring American human launches to U.S. soil as soon as mid-2017, if all goes well.
Despite yet another delay in the launch of their first-ever deep space mission, SpaceX still had reason to celebrate today. After a month attached to the International Space Station, the SpaceX Dragon capsule returned to Earth, splashing down with a load of scientific supplies.
After a perfect launch this weekend, the Dragon space capsule arrived at the International Space Station earlier today. The most-anticipated item? Mustard, as the station's condiment supplies had run critically low.
Feared above all other dragons is the species of wyrm that makes the swamps and bogs its home. For it nests near shallow pockets of marshland gas, which it knocks loose and burns with its fiery breath whenever intruders come near.
The Dragon capsule detached from the International Space Station, carrying 1,486 kilograms of cargo safely back to Earth. This fourth cargo mission by SpaceX carried a wide variety of science samples, including the first live mammals transported by the commercial company.
The SpaceX Dragon has been promoted, carrying its first live mammals next mission. The Dragon will be carrying 40 mousetronauts for a three-week stay in space. This is an important step to certifying the Dragon for crewed flights.
The SpaceX Dragon capsule splashed down this afternoon, returning over 3,500 pounds of cargo back to Earth from the International Space Station. By completing its 3rd freighter mission, the Dragon brings the gift of over 1,600 pounds of scientific samples and hardware awaiting detailed analysis.
After the original April 14th launch attempt was delayed, the SpaceX launch of Falcon 9 waited out ominous weather and made it into orbit this afternoon. Although successful, this is the first launch I've seen with a complete dearth of beautiful photographs.

Customer Reviews
Top Customer Reviews
Make no mistake - it recognises text brilliantly. But then ... er let's start it up, dictate a few lines of text and then leave it on overnight ... what happens? Every morning, my top-of-the-range uncrashable Mac behaves like it's swimming through slime, running at 10% of normal speed and has to be crashed to restart. The problem - Dragon! It just does not seem to buffer correctly. And in fact the same problem occurs in a far shorter time if you mix manual editing with voice editing (something most people will probably do naturally) - it slows your machine down to the point you lose documents in other programs and windows take 10 seconds to open.
Then there's the simple fact of the editing commands - it's been designed by someone who shouldn't be in the job, and who clearly doesn't edit for a living. And then ... can I add a new word to the dictionary or train it on a word? Er yes - but is it easy? Er no, it's been designed for weird people. Why not just have a little box you can open, you type the word in and press a dictate button and dictate it. Job done. Or do the same for specific word training.
In short, the main interface is so feature poor it feels like shareware. There is one way of doing things in this software, and that way is stupid.
All of the above said, it does recognise my speech very well (other programmers must have written that bit), so I'm giving it 2 stars.
Such a pity, as a decent design and coding team could fix all these issues in a week.
I was so full of hope but clearly we are a number of years away from being able to happily dictate without problem!
Despite training for hours and hours, Dragon still chooses to default to certain spellings or mishears me to the point of it being ludicrous. I would say I have to close it down at least twice a day when it starts to play up or slows down and I have to wait 10 seconds or so before it types out what I've said. Personally, manual typing is much faster but I'm obliged to use Dragon because I have RSI.
Good points: when working well, it's fast and it's great to be able to dictate and send e-mails without moving a muscle. It uses apostrophes correctly.
Bad points: it is sometimes almost starts typing backwards, deleting words. It needs rebooting regularly. It simply refuses to recognise words that I have put in the vocabulary and have trained. Despite the fact that I speak extremely clearly, it frequently uses words that I haven't dictated.
I'd love to know if there is a way to navigate round websites as once I got into a website, I then have to revert to using the mouse to go to the various windows in that website
I have persevered for the last four weeks hoping that using Dragon would enable me to use my keyboard and mouse much less and to help get some relief from the pain in my wrists and hands. Believe me, I would much rather be speaking to my computer now and dictating a positive review.
I worked hard to speak with decent diction, spent time training the software and diligently inputing corrections to its mistakes and made sure that I had a decent microphone and sound setting. I even moved my computer into another room which had much reduced noise levels from outside. These thing made some difference, but not a lot.
The problem I found was that the software would recognise a few paragraphs quite well, but then get stuck on a word or phrase and just not recognise what I was saying no matter how many times i tried to correct the software or say the phrase/word differently. The software started misunderstanding some of my statements as instructions rather than dictation and started deleting and copying my text. Before I'd noticed the mistake, several things had been changed or deleted and I basically had to shut off the dictation and try and unpick the mess that Dragon had made of my document.
Do not bother wasting your time and money on this software, if I could get my money back I would.

LinuxWorld Ireland 2003
A big thank-you to "maddog" for kindly providing me with a selection of pictures from the show to include with this report. Upon browsing the pictures, I came across this one, which may hint at his real reason for coming to Ireland.
Paul Barry lectures at The Institute of Technology, Carlow in Ireland. His first book, Programming the Network with Perl, was published by Wiley in February 2002. His next book, Bioinformatics, Biocomputing and Perl, a collaboration with Michael Moorhouse, is scheduled to be published by Wiley toward the end of 2003.
email: email@example.com
Re: LinuxWorld Ireland 2003
I always get a few e-mails sent directly to me with very good comments. Here is an extract from one that I think other readers of this Show Report may find interesting: "I agree with the idea that OpenOffice is what Linux needs to penetrate the business environment. I think it'll be ready in two years time. I'd love to stop my users using Office97 right now. I've tried but Linux/OpenOffice still requires more hardware than Win95/Office97. Wotta pain. And OpenOffice doesn't do database queries as easily as Excel. It also doesn't seem to do pivot tables at all. I desperately need pivot tables - my users are wedded to them."Thanks, Paul.
Re: LinuxWorld Ireland 2003
Open Office certainly does do pivot tables and has done for years.
This is one of the first things I was asked when trying to get people to use StarOffice. StarOffice/OpenOffice can do so much, but sometimes it takes a bit of finding.
I forget where it is exactly but check the help section for Calc and search for Rotation, I gaurantee you it is there.
Re: LinuxWorld Ireland 2003
> The likes of ComPiere, Claroline and Kora
I think you mean Koha an Integrated Library System (ILS), mentioned in a recent issue of Linux Journal.
The presenation by Ciaran McCabe of OpenApp is available here
(at the time of writing the link for the HTML version is broken).
Re: Whoops on "Koha"
Yes, I did mean Koha - Sorry. My error. Thanks for the correction.
Re: LinuxWorld Ireland 2003
Good article. One quick correction though -- Ireland is the biggest software exporter in the world, not the second biggest, at least as of a few years ago.
(presumably this is because the US software market is primarily internal. If state-to-state exports were included, no doubt CA would be way ahead ;)
Re: LinuxWorld Ireland 2003
Thanks for that correction.
Re: LinuxWorld Ireland 2003
Openoffice is pretty good. Still lots of things that don't work quite right (printing labels is pretty primitive for example). However don't give up on Kword yet. Kword uses a somewhat different paradigm and potentially fills a slightly different niche. Kword is frame based which opens up publishing possibilities that don't look to be in the near term future of Openoffice.
Just my $0.02
OpenOffice.org is KWord
Is KWord available for Mac OS or on Microsoft Windows?
If not why not, why exclude 99% of desktop users from your potential userbase.
For business and large scale deployments this is a big deal. It allows users to learn and choose OpenOffice.org and transitiona gradually without the cose of changing their current desktop.
How good is MSWord compatibility in KWord?
How good is OpenOffice.org compatibility in KWord? (or failing that how best do you exachange documents with OO.o users?)
I like KWord and Abiword and hope they both manage to find a niche to fill and live on, but I expect OpenOffice.org to dominate (and it will inevitably get faster and cleaner).

One of the best things about the UNIX environment (aside from being stable and efficient) is the vast array of software tools available to help you do your job. Traditionally, a UNIX tool does only one thing, but does that one thing very well. For example, grep is very easy to use and can search vast amounts of data quickly. The find tool can find a particular file or files based on all kinds of criteria. It's pretty easy to string these tools together to build even more powerful tools, such as a tool that finds all of the .log files in the /home directory and searches each one for a particular entry. This erector-set mentality allows UNIX system administrators to seem to always have the right tool for the job.
Cron traditionally has been considered another such a tool for job scheduling, but is it enough? This webinar considers that very question. The first part builds on a previous Geek Guide, Beyond Cron, and briefly describes how to know when it might be time to consider upgrading your job scheduling infrastructure. The second part presents an actual planning and implementation framework.

With all the industry talk about the benefits of Linux on Power and all the performance advantages offered by its open architecture, you may be considering a move in that direction. If you are thinking about analytics, big data and cloud computing, you would be right to evaluate Power. The idea of using commodity x86 hardware and replacing it every three years is an outdated cost model. It doesn't consider the total cost of ownership, and it doesn't consider the advantage of real processing power, high-availability and multithreading like a demon.
This ebook takes a look at some of the practical applications of the Linux on Power platform and ways you might bring all the performance power of this open architecture to bear for your organization. There are no smoke and mirrors here—just hard, cold, empirical evidence provided by independent sources. I also consider some innovative ways Linux on Power will be used in the future.Get the Guide

This is a brief look at how ski resorts such as Alpine Meadows and Squaw Valley offer a relaxing ski vacation to travelers.
#1: Lake Tahoe Has A Large Ski Culture
Lake Tahoe Resort has cultivated a massive ski culture since settlers moved to the area during the expansion of America. Settlers who began to grow California and Nevada flocked to Lake Tahoe to ski when they realized there was a great potential in the region. It is as if the earliest American chose to recreate the Alps in California/Nevada.
#2: Ski Resorts Offer A Stunning Experience
Ski resorts in the Lake Tahoe area offer luxury accommodations that may be found in ports around the world. The traveler who takes their trips quite seriously will quickly uncover several favored slopes that skiers may enjoy, and the traveler who undertakes a vacation to Lake Tahoe may stay at Alpine Meadows or Squaw Valley for a preferred ski experience.
#3: Where Are Squaw Valley And Alpine Meadows?
Squaw Valley and Alpine Meadows rest on opposite sides of a majestic hill outside Lake Tahoe, and their guests may travel between the two resorts using a gondola. Skiing and luxury are expertly-combined at the resorts, and travelers may travel into the valley for further exploration. Skiing is quickly supplemented with shopping and dining in the most exclusive resorts, and the Lake Tahoe area is dotted with resorts on a similar scale.
#4: Why Are Ski Vacations Relaxing?
Ski resorts such as Alpine Meadows and Squaw Valley allow skiers to cuddle by the fire, eat well and relax in one location. The area is a beautiful site to behold, and there are quite a few historic sites that offer a relaxing learning experience.
Lake Tahoe ski vacations are offered in several locations in the area. There are quite a few resorts to select from that offer smooth slopes, luxury appointments and the calm of a California snowfall.

Austin Mobile Bakery Raises Funds for Expansion
The Lone Star State confectionary-on-wheels Capital City Bakery heads to Kickstarter for crucial kitchen equipment.
The health-inspired Capital City Bakery hit the road in Austin last year, supplying residents with vegan treats from the city's first vegan baked goods trailer. After a year of growing its consumer base and a consistent five-star Yelp rating, Capital City is looking to expand its operation and its menu, which will include at least eight cupcake flavors offered everyday, a breakfast menu, and cooking classes. The Austin bakery has secured a kitchen space and they've taken to Kickstarter to raise funds for vital equipment such as a gas convection oven, a countertop mixer, speed racks, and steel prep tables. They aim to raise $11,000 by September 20, and donors who pledge $25 will receive a voucher for six free cupcakes while those who pledge $75 will receive a limited edition tee-shirt created by an Herbivore Clothing designer.

The International Society for Fluoride Research(ISFR)
has reported studies implicating fluoride as a cause of chronic fatigue syndrome, sleep disorder, autism, down syndrome.
There's more.
Fluoxetine hydrochloride (Prozac, Fontex, Ladose, Sarafem.) Fluoxetine is an anti-depressant, anyone who knows what these evil drugs are capable of will know the danger this presents.
Another use for Fluoride? Methylphosphonofluoridate, or Sarin nerve gas or more commonly know as mustard gas.
Ever wonder how the Nazi's were able to get millions of Jews to walk themselves into their own death willingly? Fluoride has a profound effect of causing people to become more docile and open to suggestion.
It makes you think twice about why people in this country don't seem to care about whats going on. Its not their fault entirely.
There is so much more on fluoride, I could put a lot more, but now I will show you where nicotine fits into the picture.
Nicotine, most know of it through smoking and tobacco use. I've always wondered why the US Government is so adament with anti-smoking and tobacco usage. The carcinogenic properties are bad yes, i don't condone smoking. I do however condone nicotine gum, or other nicotine treatments. Here is why.
Nicotine has an adverse effect on fluoride.
REmember how fluoride inhibits choleric activity? Nicotine excites them, rebounding and undoing fluorides effect. Nicotine is being used as a treatment for ADD and ADHD, Alzheimers, Parkinson's disease. I will not list the rest, for every single ailment fluoride is known to cause, nicotine has the reverse effect.
It makes you wonder, why people who smoke may find a considerably less effect from prozac and other anti-depressents. Why most people with ADD and ADHD develope into smokers.

MENLO PARK, Calif., March 11, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Research by Pacific Union, the San Francisco Bay Area's leading luxury real estate brokerage, reveals that home prices in San Mateo County's most desirable cities are booming while available homes for sale remain in short supply.
The data, sourced from MLSListings, showed that median sales price and price-per-square-foot appreciation in four key Silicon Valley cities outpaced the number of homes sold by more than 200 percent between 2011 and 2013.
The median sales price for a single-family home in Atherton, Menlo Park, Portola Valley, and Woodside averaged $2.02 million in 2013, and buyers paid an average of $886 per square foot, Pacific Union said.
Meanwhile, the combined months' supply of inventory in the four communities has slowly but steadily declined, from 3.5 in 2011 to 3.1 in 2013. An influx of foreign buyers may be further constricting inventory, Pacific Union said; such buyers often purchase properties as an investment without returning an existing home to the market, helping push prices even higher.
According to the company, serious home hunters in this prestigious region of Silicon Valley shouldn't assume that price appreciation will level out soon and would do well to weigh the potential consequences of waiting to enter the market.
"Prices will likely continue to rise in this inventory-constrained environment," said David Barca, vice president of Pacific Union's Silicon Valley region.
"The continued constraint of supply against the velocity of existing demand, if sustainable, could drive single-family-home median prices to approach $1,300 per square foot in 2016," added Mark A. McLaughlin, CEO of Pacific Union.

Chicago preps dramatic change in 911 dispatching
The city, which gets 5.7 million calls per year, is shifting many 911 calls to 311 and the Internet
By Fran Spielman and Frank Main
Chicago Sun-Times
CHICAGO — The Daley administration is preparing to launch a dramatic change in 911 dispatching.
It's aimed at freeing up police officers to respond to the most serious crimes by diverting lower priority calls to 311 or convincing crime victims to file their reports online.
Already, several hundred people have reported non-emergency incidents online on the Chicago Police Department's website. In the coming weeks, victims who call 911 about thefts of property under $500 or lost property will be encouraged to file their reports online. Those who refuse will be urged to call 311 to file their reports by phone.

The Gophers added another tall receiver to this year's recruiting class, according to multiple reports, when they flipped 6-4 Cincinnati Moeller High School product Isiah Gentry from his commitment to Kent State University.
The news was first reported by David Shama, at Shamasportsheadliners.com and confirmed by GopherIllustrated.com and Minnesota.247Sports.com, which both have Gentry ranked as a three-star recruit.
On Sunday night, Melvin Holland Jr., a 6-3 receiver from Ashburn, Va., reportedly committed to the Gophers while Coach Jerry Kill was making his at-home visit. On Tuesday, Gentry reportedly did the same. Josh Helmholdt, the Midwest recruiting analyst for Rivals.com, was impressed with the news:

U.S. m-commerce sales hit $24.7 billion in 2012, accounting for 11% of total e-commerce sales.
Shoppers using their smartphones, tablets and other mobile devices to buy online spent $24.66 billion in 2012, up 81% from $13.63 billion in 2011, research firm eMarketer says. The estimate excludes travel and ticket sales.
Mobile commerce sales accounted for 11% of U.S. e-commerce sales in 2012, up four percentage points from a year earlier, eMarketer says.
The research firm projects that retail sales on smartphones and tablets will continue to represent a larger slice of e-commerce over the next few years. EMarketer expects m-commerce sales to rise 55.7% to $38.40 billion this year, which it projects will be 15% of total e-commerce. Next year sales will jump another 35.8% to $52.17 billion, accounting for 18% of total e-commerce sales. Its m-commerce sales estimates for 2015 and 2016 are $68.29 billion and $86.86 billion, which it predicts will be 21% and 24% of e-commerce spending, respectively.
"EMarketer's m-commerce forecast reflects a confluence of three trends," the research firm says. "First, the expanding number of smartphone shoppers whose behavior affects commerce in all channels; second, the growing number of smartphone buyers who enjoy the immediacy of purchasing through their phone and are expected to generate just over one-third of m-commerce sales this year; and third, the rapid rise in tablet shopping, which will produce the bulk of m-commerce sales over the next four years."
Of the $24.66 billion in mobile sales in 2012, $13.86 billion, or 56.2%, came from tablets; $9.86 billion, or 40.0%, came from smartphones; and $0.94 billion, or 3.8%, came from other mobile devices, eMarketer says.
Of the $38.40 billion in mobile sales predicted for 2013, $24.00 billion, or 62.5%, will come from tablets; $13.44 billion, or 35.0%, will come from smartphones; and $0.96 billion, or 2.5%, will come from other mobile devices, eMarketer forecasts.
EMarketer analyzed more than 120 data sets from dozens of research sources that track commerce sales and consumer behavior to form its forecast, the research firm says.
EMarketer's 2012 estimate is in line with projections in the Internet Retailer Mobile 400, which found that the worldwide mobile sales of 400 leading mobile retailers, travel companies and ticket sellers totaled $12.14 billion in 2012. Combined with $13 billion in mobile commerce sales on eBay Inc., which isn't included the 400 because it is an online marketplace, Internet Retailer estimates that mobile commerce sales last year totaled $25.14 billion, not far from eMarketer's estimate of $24.66 billion.

Progressives have been gunning for Dr. Ben Carson ever since his speech at the National Prayer breakfast last month. For failing to extoll the virtues of The One, Carson was branded a race traitor. The vicious epithets continued after he dared to speak at CPAC. MSNBC's Touré declared that Carson was the GOP's token "black friend" and suggested that the pediatric neurosurgeon owed his success to the government.
So, who better to weigh in on the GOP's race problem than Touré? The stupidity was strong during his appearance on Martin Bashir's show today, but it was compounded exponentially by a graphic of an albino elephant and the phrase, "Blinded by the white." Really, MSNBC?
C'mon MSNBC http://t.co/FuCPNyLCrK

As proof of the GOP's diversity troubles, MSNBC in its report cited BuzzFeed's recent exposé decrying the overwhelming whiteness of the Republican leadership. And, as Legal Insurrection points out, BuzzFeed knows what overwhelming whiteness looks like.
"Very White Republican Leadership" kinda looks like … http://t.co/wBiBvmyJHd

Racist NBC-MSNBC graphic: Ben Carson 'blinded by the White': Seriously? Man, they are intent on destroying him… http://t.co/FXf2cDSMsq

Fortunately, MSNBC suffers from no such "blindness," and new prime time host and white man Chris Hayes, who is set to replace white man Ed Schultz in the networks coveted 8 p.m. slot, is making sure of it. The Columbia Journalism Review notes that Hayes will bring his "hard quotas" to prime time with him, enforcing his general rule that "if there are four people sitting at a table, only two of them can be white men."
And none of them will be Dr. Carson, we'd wager.

I made it through 2 minutes of that slop and just cannot bear any more. What a waste of time MSNBC and their cohorts are. Flush 'em down with the rest of the crap…
If anybody has fiberoptic or IPTV service, NEVER tune into PMSNBC. They can measure your viewership with those services. That station must be made as uneconomic as possiblw. It's ratings are already terrible, with CNN trying their best to be just as bad.
Starve them out, the programming is putrid, full of lies, and never objective. Its hate based programming
http://twitter.com/LibertyRanger Liberty Ranger
So sick of this anti-individual crap. I canceled my DirecTV. I only have Comcast for Internet, not TV. I only watch stuff on ROKU Player anymore. And as of Today I am switching to ATT for Internet service since they have NOT YET achieved the same level of hate for Americans and the overt display of Racism and Bigotry seen at Comcast. As long as they keep trash like MsLSD in the lineup I will not give them another dollar. Time to draw the line America Cancel your TV subscriptions. Get off the Propaganda News networks. THINK FOR YOUR SELF PEOPLE! You too can be a Ben Carson!

It is logical that you would offer that, as that is what Democrats normally offer to their constituents…, and it works. Here.., not so much.

I cancelled mine too. I don't go to movies anymore either because I am sick of supporting liberal pig celebrites.

Allow me to join the echo chamber for cancelling cable. The Blaze and Netflix cost an average of 17 dollars per month versus the 80 dollars I formerly paid for basic cable. Various roku channel store and private apps fill in the gaps rather nicely.
Me too,wish I didn't wait so long,What a wast of money.

you do know that Commiecast has REFUSED to remove al jazeera tv AND has refused to run ads that have or mention guns?
Laura González
Why should they remove Al Jazeera? Don't you like freedom of speech? Even speech you don't like? Uh, exactly what do you think a Commie is???
I have "personally" asked DTV for another conservative voice in their channel lineup as well
( FOX IS THE "ONLY" CONSERVATIVE VOICE ON DTV & I'm thankful we have FOX)
& they told me there wasn't enough people wanting it?
Yet, people asking for the Al Jazeera channel was overwhelming?
Yes, I'm laughing out loud!
I find that hard to believe!
Same here; I cancelled DirecTV as well; went for DishNetwork – they carry TheBlazeTV – and I think for myself. 😉
Dish Network? Holy cow. You've just signed up with the satellite TV equivalent of the Mafia. Check your bill EVERY month. They'll keep adding services you didn't request, and billing you for them.
Well, DirecTV has already decided that they will NOT carry TheBlazeTV. So, it was my decision to switch. If you can prove without a doubt that your statement about Dish Network adding services to my plan w/o my consent, I suggest you give specifics. Otherwise, mind your own business!
My father works for the company. They do it, I assure you. He receives calls almost every day with customers complaining about random charges, and is having trouble staying in business because so many people are cancelling their subscriptions.
You know, Chris was obviously just trying to help you and that did not warrant such a rude response. Don't be a bitch, it gives you wrinkles.
Just stop watching TV altogether, and start thinking for yourself. I can tell that you don't, because randomly acting like a ungrateful bitch to a stranger who was only trying to help is a symptom of the dumbing down you receive on a daily basis from that brainwash-box. Or, is that impossible since you can't go without your American Idol and Dr. Oz? Yeah, that's what I thought.
Respect gets respect, and kindness should get kindness in return. Why don't you try acting like a respectable lady, and be grateful when someone offers their help? I can't imagine you act much different in 'real' life, and I can't imagine many people like you, either.
Shape up, girl, and try to remember the manners your mother should have taught you. The internet is not an excuse to act like a rude bitch.
First of all, I wasn't being rude. I was stating my opinion, and apparently you can't handle it; so you come off as some big shot brat thinking that I watch stupid shows like American Idol or Dr. Oz. You don't know me so don't even go there! Second, you claim that your father works for Dish Network, and at the same time you make disparaging remarks about his employer. Newsflash, little child: Your dad could lose his job if his boss were to see what you just posted for all the world to see. Hmmm … I wonder how happy he'd be with you if that happened!
Sonny-boy .. I'm a grown woman – not some little kid! And I don't take to kindly to some faceless brat talking down to me or telling me what to do! As for doing business with Dish Network – like I said before – it was my decision, and there is nothing you can do about it!
So, Chris … did you come up with any specifics that I asked for yet?
*crickets* …
like a family living in a house with huge windows and open drapes. The GOP is always under inspection. The Liberal media casts a cloak of silence over Obama and Dems. So who gets more seeming negativity reported about them. I pray God to open the hearts of America to consider the real truth. If they have the courage.
Can someone please tell MSNBC that when 1984 truly arrives, they've got the gig for the
5 minute hate. They can stop auditioning anytime.
Let's rephrase this title to "Blinded by the Black" or "Blinded by the Arabs" or "Blinded by the Hispanics." I know it doesn't rhyme, but my guess is that no title like this will ever appear on MSNBC. It's very sad to see that they only look at skin color, verses what someone has to say. I try not to discredit someone's opinion/argument just because they were born a specific race.

"Blinded by the White"?

Careful, our "michael s" will call you out for race baiting for that!
I took offense because the wording was similar to a song I truly like. Maybe in this world of suffocating PC it will be deemed waacist or 'summin.
It really must suck going through life stressed out over imaginary racism. I think most of these guys are angry because they lack street cred like Martin Luther King.
June Clinkenbeard
Don't kid yourself. They are delighted to talk about the Racist Right. It's what gets them out of bed in the morning. It is telling that MSNBC had a hissy fit over Alaska's one Rep in Congress, who is the king of pork and has been their 30 years! I hope he gets run out of the party but I'm not holding my breath. My point is that the liberal media have been hammering THe Right for a very long time. No detail is too minute to castigate us over. We need to call them on their BS and then move on to how we're going to beat the bastards before we all go belly up.
In future, I am going to try and not wail and gnash my teeth so much over shots across our bow. It is a distraction greatly to be wish for from the lying Liberals on The Left and keeps us from focusing on what new nonsense will come wafting down from the People's House. You know, the one we can't visit?
P.S. How do you listen to MSNBC? Ack! It makes me crazy…
They started sounding like crazy people years ago, so I stopped trying to follow their "logic?" I find I don't relate well to crazy people…lol.
When folks accuse me of racism, I just pat them on their pumpkin heads and tell them how cute they are. And I don't really listen to MSNBC. The transcripts are good enough.

I watched until Toure mispronounced forward. Call me anal, but really? Foward? Ben Carson is the best thing that could ever happen to minorities in America. And just who is drunk, and on what Toure? These are obviously people paid to perpetuate myths to low information individuals that many quite likely, are getting bored with. Such trite journalism.
Yea, he must be "blinded by the white" because an intelligent, accomplished black man can't possibly think for himself or agree with "whitey." What an ass.
Its funny how they try and brand conservatives as racists and post pictures of all white people. But when blacks actually do think for themselves, they are "token"..
Its not the republicans or conservatives fault when 99% of blacks choose to vote based on color and for free sh*t….
I would love to see this Douch� in public and knock him out. I will take one for the conservative team.
What's very frightening is Ed Schultz is the smart one at MSNBC.

I've come to the conclusion that MSNBC is some hipster parody of liberal networks that is too hip to let us know that they are in on the joke. Either that or they are really that f-cking stupid..

(a) republicans don't have enough black people in the party…
(b) yet, when a black person is a republican, he/she is a traitor.
tell me, if a black person is against everything that the republican party stands for, why would he/she become a republican in the first place, and, why would the party want said person?
Yet these people love Republican Colin Powell…wonder why?
Because he's Republican in name only.

Krystal Ball? When did MSNBC start hiring strippers/porn actresses?
I'll tune in when Krystal becomes MSNBC's first topless news reader. With the sound turned off of course.
You mean MSDNC.
You know, if they actually did that, I might watch.
Jim Denney
"Krystal Ball" – seriously? Let me guess, she saw her future & it turned out to be between Rachel Maddows thighs?
Toure has a creepy obsession with Dr. Carson. ALL and I mean ALL he seems to do these days is talk trash about the man. It is very clear Toure is jealous of Dr. Carson. For whatever reason, when Toure sees Dr. Carson he is reminded of his inadequacy. Toure is a race baiting troll stuck on the MSNBC plantation. It is all he ever has been and ever will be. No one really respects Toure, and most of us had probably never heard of him until we began reading twitchy(I know I didn't). Dr. Carson was a respected brain surgeon long before his prayer breakfast speech, and many of us knew of him from the biopic "Gifted Hands". This infuriates Toure to no end and he reacts to his feelings of inadequacy by relentlessly insulting Dr. Carson.
You hit the nail on the head! Toure' is a miserable little man.
Frank Smiles
Toure' should write a book and call it something like "Gifted Handouts". About as close as he's going to get to the calibre of man Dr. Ben Carson is
Frank Smiles
And… (Choking on laughter) seriously, Krystal Ball? Boy, her parents were making sure she'd have a Ben Carson kind of career when they came up with that name! Unless that's a re-name chosen by her and that's even sillier. Snow White would have been just as dignified. She Definitely looks more like a Snow White than a Krystal Ball.
http://apostrophejones.com/ Gloves Donahue, Jr.
Dr. Carson refuses to bend to the lib pressure to conform to their stereotype and if lefties had any sense, they would admire this man.
But if they had sense, they wouldn't be lefties.
They are now attacking the good doctor for his views on gay marriage. If you do not worship at the altar of gay, you must be silenced. Hate speech as a crime is next. The irony, blacks do not traditionally support gay marriage, therefore they must also be racist haters or something.
MSLSD is completely unhinged.
michael s
Dont have a problem with Dr Carson or his views on marriage or sex. People need to stop race baiting Dr Carson because he has a contrary view of things.
Oddly enough, we live in a land of freedom of speech. It's very telling when the left trys to grind down anyone who doesn't agree with their point of view.
Democrats can't stand the thought of blacks leaving the Democrat Plantation and thinking on their own. If enough did that, the Democrat Party would be dead.

shouldn't the coalition of the willing do something about this?
Nothing more threatening to the progressive left than a professional black conservative. Bonus points for being an accomplished human being.
MSNBC must be beside themselves in panic.
CNN is in attack mode also:
"Ben Carson, admirable man with a mistaken philosophy"
MSNBC isn't a news media anymore they are a big joke.
was it ever, really?
There is a nice article over at Taki Magazine, capsulizing what we all know to be true, i.e., the glue holding the Obama coalition together is hatred of straight white males.
MSNBC remind me of Civil War Era Bounty Hunters who chased runaway slaves. Can't have one leaving the plantation.
Sorry, but Corson tripped over his own big toe on Hannity.
He was promising, but may never live this down. It was a stupid thing to say.
Forever he'll be branded the GOP far right social conservative who compared gay Americans to pedaphiles and people who have sex with farm animals.
I think one of the great strengths of the GOP is the potential for successful people from outside government to come in and take the party by storm. Corson was one such person. I hope there are many more coming, because the party needs better candidates.
Whereas the Democrat ranks are largely known quantities arising from
government. (Obama was the exception that proved the rule, successfully
using race for rapid advancement, from a pretty much nothing career, but passing only briefly through government).
John Ledo
really? put ya'll back in chains.. you didn't build that…they like to clinch to their guns…all said by current admin but yet there still in office

My favorite MSNBC moment was on Hardball when Chris Matthews "revealed" a photograph of a leather bound book that he said was the authentic racial code book Republicans had been using since the Reagan era.

White men are too busy being engineers, doctors, inventors to worry about having a job at MSPMSNBC.
MSNBC is spiraling down the drain fast. Who does this appeal to other then virulent hard-core leftists?
Grumpa Grumpus
I know why they're angry all the time, why they've fixated on skin color (or people's sex — male or female), and why they're constantly overflowing w/vitriolic pus.
Let me attempt to explain:
Skin color is used b/c it take no thought or effort to divide along those lines.
To use "the content of one's character" as a basis for analysis requires thought, acuity of perception, sound judgement, intellectual curiosity, along w/mental and emotional maturity and control — among other items indicative of the possession and use of the higher brain functions.
Progressive who have these attributes and faculties turn them off to fit in w/the bulk, who do not. Eventually these characteristic atrophy into a withered palsied appendage to their over-driven emotional muscles.
Your common Progressive craves to be "smart" — doubt it? It's their favorite word! Everything they deem good is "smart": from butter to vehicles to viewpoints to lifestyle to politicians to people.
Smart, smart, smart, smart! Under their usage, the word has become a simple synonym for "good" or "holy".
And yet, in their hearts, they know they are not "smart". The whole "Self-esteem conquers all" movement was set in motion, and the Progressive swarmed that bandwagon b/c they knew something wasn't right — it is easy to lie to others, but hard to convincingly lie to oneself.
The "self-esteem building" movement didn't work. They lack the maturity to actually look at the foundation assumptions of their beliefs and philosophy to try to ferret out where they depart from reality. Their narcissism won't let them — they'd have to entertain the notion that they might be in error… And above all, a Progressive is never in error!
"Missteps" are due to others. The Progressive was misled, lied to, given an incomplete picture (accidentally or due to a Conservative Conspiracy via projection– it makes no difference…) or misunderstood— but never in error!
So to soothe their "inner voice" — they don't have consciences, those are for un-evolved folk, like, for example, Christians — they fallback on a method used all the time by those who are naturally and rightly immature, children: they keep repeating the talisman-phrase that They Are Smart!… just as would any child, hoping one day that they'll come to believe it.
They do this constantly and endlessly in uncountable variation. 'We Are Smart!', or "hip", or "with-it", or they "get-it"… the wording always distills back to the aforementioned refrain.
And when it's challenged — either directly by Reality or indirectly with some Conservative (perhaps unwittingly) acting as Nature's Agent — the Progressive feels the smooth repetition of its mantra threatened and goes into hysterics, lashing out at the "nearest" safe individual available. "Nearest" not being defined solely spatially and "safe" translating as non-Progressive allied.
Occasionally I would watch Star Trek TNG, and Progressives remind me, not so much as the Borg — although they do operate like that — but like the aliens from an episode who kidnapped the engineer and kept saying to everyone "We are smart" We are powerful"… but , in truth, were neither– and knew it.
I'm sorry. I've become rather tired, so I need to end this over-long post. I'm certain, however, that it is easy to see how this relates to the attacks by Progressives on people.
Grandpa, your post is probably too long for the average progressive to read (all those words!), but I think you did a great job. I agree.
Like insecure dogs, the animals at MSNBC bite out of fear, and they need some training. I have complete faith that Dr. Carson can handle this on his own, if he even cares. Responding to the race baiting gives them a credibility they don't deserve.
Dr. King's spinning just set a new speed record.
Gary marshall
Martin Luther King Jr. voted Republican. I guess he was blinded too.
Couldn't listen to the whole thing all three souls are ugly.
Hayes will bring his "hard quotas" to prime time with him, enforcing his general rule that "if there are four people sitting at a table, only two of them can be white men."
Sounds like Hayes is a racist.
IT'S A LEVEL OF THE AMAZING CONTEMPT THE OBAMA WHITE HOUSE HAS FOR OUR INTELLIGENCE, to think we believe MSNBC, or any of the State News Propagandists who carry water for Obama, including the White House's own 'In House Despenser Of False Information', Media Matters, it's preposterous to think we don't understand that EVERYTHING sources from Obama and his staff of manipulative 'news' minions up and to including Obama's, and note I'm pinning it squarely on him, the RACISM he directs to fill the press, and I use the word 'press' in its loosest form. The American press is contemptible and as bad as some of the 'MSM' is and with such low following, you can only deduce they are completely propped up by their left wing ownership and good luck trying to trace THAT thicket of layer upon layer of strangling vines down in the present 'news' jungle. If you refer to MSM as 'news worthy', then you also probably think the United States is, as the White House funnels: 'Prospering and in recovery.' Must be true, huh? Even the wire services are saying it. Ooops, their 'Sold To Obama' tag is in plain view. When I see Obama and his wife gassing up next to me at the service station and pushing a food cart through the green grocer's, and I can yak it up about the economy when we're on queue at the checkout, perhaps I'll swallow some of that old, cold hash.
Mandy in SC
Am I the only one that wonders how anyone can take a "news anchor" with the name Krystal Ball seriously?
The blind idolatry of Obama worshipers sickens me to my core. They are very much like the followers of Hitler, Jim Jones, and other cults. History will be as unkind to them as it has to other cults of personality.
strangely.. MOST people don't WATCH television .. they LISTEN to it .. while texting .. talking on the phone (yes it can be done) doing something around the house .. surfing the web..etc.. so other than MSNBC and the nitwits that own it most people couldn't tell you the color of anyone on a talk show.. I know I listen to talk shows all the time and I can't tell you what color any of the guests are only what they are saying and if it makes since and is logical.. when I heard Dr. CARSON I didn't know he was black.. I did know however he made sense..
Imagine what they would say if Carson was born a woman.
Poe Ster
Now that they've gotten the tacid backing of the current administration. They've shown what we get when their fake masks come off. They are as bad the cross burning hooded racists they pretend to decry. Ben Carson is a hero.

Al Qaeda kidnaps Algerian Governor hostage
Algiers: Al Qaeda`s north African branch is holding the Governor of an Algerian desert region kidnapped near the border with Libya, security sources said on Tuesday.
The abduction of the governor, the most senior Algerian official to be kidnapped in years, will reinforce worries that the overthrow of Libya`s Muammar Gaddafi has created a zone of instability now being exploited by al Qaeda.
The kidnappers stopped a convoy carrying Mohamed Laid Khelfi, governor of the Illizi region, on Monday afternoon, took him hostage and headed towards the border with Libya, Algeria`s state news agency said, citing an Interior Ministry statement.
It did not identify the kidnappers, saying only they were three young Algerians who were known to the authorities.
"All arrangements have been put in place and the appropriate resources have been mobilized at all levels to ensure the governor is freed as quickly as possible," the statement said.
But two Algerian security officials, who spoke on condition of anonymity, said the governor was being held by al Qaeda in the Islamic Maghreb (AQIM), a group which stages ambushes, suicide bombings and kidnappings in Algeria and neighboring countries that straddle the Sahara desert.
"The governor is in the hands of AQIM, who have already contacted his parents," said one of the officials.
One of the officials said the governor was being held inside Libyan territory a short distance from the spot where he was kidnapped. There was no immediate comment from Libya`s government.
"This is a very dangerous escalation which shows that the group (AQIM) is feeling secure and strong because of the chaos in Libya," said Samer Riad, a security expert who runs Algeria`s numidianews.com news portal.
Algeria has been fighting an Islamist insurgency for two decades. High-ranking officials have been assassinated but never before kidnapped, mainly because they are almost always escorted by heavily armed security details.
Algeria`s government has in the past months raised concerns -- shared by some Western powers -- that the security vacuum in Libya left by Gaddafi`s overthrow will provide AQIM with a ready source of weapons and a safe haven from which to launch attacks.
