Walking into Rick Maguire's office at Maguire's Auto Repair in Williston feels a little bit like visiting a wing of a Florida stock car racing museum.
Among a strew of typical auto shop items, there are framed photos of renowned drivers, like Bobby Allison, as well as a personal collection of photos documenting Maguire's and his late father's racing past.
Ever since I wrote the column about the Mississippi Roast and The Carnivore things have been changing at Herding Cats Ranch.
Shortly after the roast debuted, The Carnivore told me to put together a French toast casserole, store it in the fridge, get a good night's sleep and pull out my work boots, ' cause I was gonna need them.
He meant that literally and figuratively.
If leadership begins at the top, then the drive to make Williston a more attractive city must begin at city hall.
Civic groups and individuals alike have picked up the gauntlet to clean up Williston. Two of the city council's appointed committees, the Community Redevelopment Agency and Board of Adjustments and Code Enforcement have put in countless hours to make Williston better, prettier.
And what has the council and staff done to beautify its own property?

Tennessee survived a close call to keep a wide lead at the top
of The AP women's basketball poll.
The Lady Vols led the poll for the second straight week on
Monday, but needed a late surge in their last game to stay there.
They scored the final six points of regulation to force overtime in
beating Auburn 68-61 Sunday.
Tennessee (18-1) received 44 of 47 first-place votes from a
national media panel and had 1,172 points -- 66 more than No. 2 Duke
(16-2). Texas (19-2) remained third with three first-place votes
and 1,083 points.
While the top six stayed the same, Notre Dame, Florida and
Southwest Missouri State moved into the Top 25 at the bottom. It
was the first appearance of the season for Florida and Southwest
Missouri State.
Oklahoma, Vanderbilt and Nebraska dropped out.
Tennessee will defend its No. 1 ranking against perennial
nemesis Connecticut in Knoxville on Thursday night. The
fourth-ranked Huskies have defeated Tennessee four straight times,
including a 73-68 victory in last year's national championship
Penn State was fifth and Purdue was sixth, with Stanford,
Louisiana Tech, Texas Tech and Kansas State completing the top 10.
Texas Tech dropped two places after an 82-73 loss at Texas.
Stanford and Louisiana Tech each moved up one spot. Kansas State
climbed two places.
Colorado stayed at No. 11 and North Carolina jumped two spots to
12th. Then it was Minnesota, LSU, DePaul and Georgia, followed by
Baylor, TCU, Auburn and Michigan State.
Virginia Tech, Miami, Notre Dame, Florida and Southwest Missouri
State held the final five places.
Georgia, TCU and Auburn each moved up three places for the
biggest jump within the poll. Miami fell five spots to 22nd after
losing twice, to Notre Dame and Rutgers. DePaul dropped two spots
to 15th after being held 22 points below its nation-leading scoring
average in a 74-70 loss to Charlotte.
Notre Dame (13-7), ranked in the first three polls of the
season, has the most losses in the Top 25. But the Irish have
defeated five teams that were ranked at the time, including
Connecticut. Four of their losses were to teams currently in the
Top 25.
Florida (15-5) has won five of its last six to continue an
impressive turnaround from last season's 9-19 record. The Gators
have defeated Vanderbilt twice, won at Georgia and beat UC Santa
Barbara when the Gauchos were ranked 15th.
Florida was last ranked in the 2001-02 season, when it was 24th
in the final poll.
Southwest Missouri State (18-1) has ridden a 16-game winning
streak, the nation's longest, to its first national ranking since
Jackie Stiles led the Lady Bears to the Final Four in 2001. They
were 15th in the final poll that year.
Oklahoma (13-6), 20th last week, dropped out after losses to
Missouri and Kansas State extended the Sooners' losing streak to
four. OU had been ranked all season, reaching as high as 13th the
week of Dec. 15.
Vanderbilt (16-4) returned to the poll just last week at No. 24
and split its two games, beating Arkansas and losing to Florida.
Nebraska, which had been 25th, lost to Texas and Baylor after
joining the poll for the first time since November 1999.

Elaine Thompson, File, Associated Press
SEATTLE — When Pete Carroll was in the midst of his championship run at USC, he knew the Trojans would play a nearly perfect game and it still wouldn't be enough to win.
That day came in the 2006 Rose Bowl on a night when Vince Young and Texas was unstoppable.
"I had said for years at 'SC that we're going to go out and play the game that we want to play and it's about us and how we bring our game to it. Some time, somewhere down the road, some guy or a couple players find a way to play so far above the norm and they might beat us some day and we don't know when that's going to happen," Carroll said. "That was that time — the night we faced him."
For the first time since Young scampered 9 yards for a touchdown in the closing seconds to give Texas a 41-38 victory, Carroll and Young will be on the same field Thursday night when the Seattle Seahawks (4-7) host the Philadelphia Eagles (4-7) in a prime-time matchup with nearly zero importance.
Mathematically, the playoffs are still possible for both teams. Realistically, the Eagles and Seahawks are entering the stage where the final four weeks are auditions for next season.
Young would be at the top of the list for players trying to leave a good impression and not just with their current employers. Michael Vick is out yet again as he continues to recover from two broken ribs suffered on Nov. 13 against Arizona, so it's likely Young will make his third straight start against Carroll's Seahawks.
Young threw for a career-high 400 yards last week against New England, although most of it came in the second half after the Eagles were down 31-13, Most of the focus was on a heated sideline exchange between defensive line coach Jim Washburn and offensive coordinator Marty Mornhinweg that added another layer of drama to the Eagles' underwhelming season.
Young says despite the opportunity he's receiving, he's not looking at it as an audition tape for when free agency comes after the season.
"I'm not really thinking about that right now," Young said. "I'm just, like I said I want to go out there and compete and lead my team to combat and make sure that I'm calling the plays right, adjusting and doing all of the different things from practice and bring it out to the game field. So that's pretty much all that's on my mind."
Young was nearly reunited with Carroll in another way, as Seattle took a look at Young before deciding to go with Tarvaris Jackson as its quarterback for this season.
"We see him as a dynamic football player. He's very comfortable in the pocket — just look at what he did last week in throwing for 400," Carroll said. "He's very comfortable standing in the pocket; he's not a running quarterback any longer, although he's running the ball seven or eight times a game still very effectively. He's just growing up, just as guys do when they come into the league."
Much of the criticism toward the Eagles from last week came because running back LeSean McCoy got just 14 total touches and 10 carries despite entering as the leading rusher in the NFL. He still holds that spot even after rushing for just 31 yards on 10 carries against the Patriots — 10 yards ahead of Jacksonville's Maurice Jones-Drew — but McCoy's questionable with a toe injury.
Along with Vick, the Eagles have already ruled out wide receiver Jeremy Maclin for a third straight week with hamstring and shoulder injuries, and cornerback Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie with an ankle. Even Nnamdi Asomugha is questionable while he nurses a sore left knee.

Biology based on 0 ratings. 20 reviews.
This book explained everything in great detail and it was all fairly straightforward. Some of the information can be mind-boggling and very narrow at times, but that's bio for you. Basically, it's explanations are clearer than those of some other books out there, and it was nice to have such a competent book in such a vast subject.
Useful book for Biology students.
I am a sophomore in high school and find this book to be pleasantly simplistic though very thorough. The text is not 'jumbled together' as another might suggest, but very well organized into eight units, beginning with the fundamentals of atoms and molecules and working its way up to ecology. This text is also highly regarded in the eyes of the scientific community. Perfect for any Biology enthusiast.
Does this book come with mastery access biology code?
Logically organized, the key concepts are repeated and stated at the beginning of each chapter and each section. Important terms are in boldface and thoroughly defined in the glossary. Chapters are sequenced sagaciously. Abundant figures delve into more advanced concepts and provide appropriate background information. Textbooks literally do not get better than this. This book was designed to be easy to read and comprehensive which it accomplished in both aspects. All other undergraduate textbooks I have used pale in comparison to this wonderfully convenient biology student aid.
this is a complicated book- alot to take in- Would be nice if terms- or vocab was clarified in the begining of each chapter- and not just in the body of the reading- it does not high lite key points- and so if you are doing soemthing and need a quick reference- you need to review whole sections instead of just certain objectives.
I thought some of the organization could've been better... clarity 8th vs. 7th is an improvment (it glosses over less archaic material) which i call an improvment. ::thumbsup here:: It's good for AP Bio or any freshman bio course in college (intro of course). I gave it a low innovative rating (because 7th vs. 8th with exception of minutia and some photos, little changed, like the improvements or radical changes are so minor it's like no change at all). Recommendations reflect, um needs of basically AP Bio'ers/any potential USABO'ers. I also generally recommend sorry BN, checking out your local library for books before shelling out $100+ for any of these books, you'll be surprised what you can find free for tax dollars. LOL. Enjoy everyone! I recommend campbell to everyone!
It is for the most part very detailed and the majority of topics are explained very well. I think a few chapters are somewhat vague. It is definately not an enjoyable read, but it gets the job done.
I am a 17 year old high school senior and I am taking AP Biology. This book is one of the few text books that is enjoyable to read. It is excruciatingly detailed, but it is always explained clearly. There are many diagrams and examples to explain everything. In fact, it is so effective, that I read the cell respiration chapter ONCE and got a 97 on the test. There is a reason why this book is the college standard. Highly Reccommended
As a High schol student, taking an AP Biology course, this is not the most student oriented book out there, nothing is explained in simplemen terms, and while reading, have a dictionary within reach, It will come in handy.
Horrible book. Well of course it is, it's a textbook, how could it be enjoyable. I will say I got an A in the class which means the authors probably knew what they were writing about. The biology concepts in the book were definitely solid, I learned a lot even though I only read about 3/4 of the book. Pictures were nice, good colors, solid spine, nice quality book. I thought about stuffing it full of fireworks and blowing it up, instead I sold it for a nice price. Wasn't too bad.

The connect/disconnect sounds are frequent but random, and only when I am playing games. Sometimes the sound is accompanied by the screen turning black for about one second, but not always. Here is what I have tried so far: Nothing shows up in the event viewer associated to the sounds. I ran a game in window mode, nothing shows up on the task bar as connecting or disconnecting. I updated my video card driver. I ran dell diagnostic, no problems detected. However, I noticed when it was testing the video card, the sounds/screen blanking did occur. I opened the case and cleaned out the minimal dust and made sure everything was tightly connected.

It seems the only way to make the GAE Channel API financially viable is to implement some kind of pooling mechanism (one of the senior app engine product managers even told me this when I emailed them about the exorbitant price) to reuse channels that have not yet expired.
I've been brainstorming ways (places) to implement a channel pool, but each method I think of has some pretty serious drawbacks.
Static memory of a Servlet -- Good, but will drop quite a bit of open channels when a new VM instance opens and/or a client gets passed from one VM to another.
Memcache -- At least the memory is globally accessible from all VMs, but now the possibility of dropping a very viable channel is possibly greater due to inactivity and memory pressure.
Backend Instance -- Probably the best option in terms of reliability, but now the expense of running the backend will eat up all the savings of implementing the pool in the first place!
Is there a better place/way of implementing a channel pool across VMs that I'm missing, or am I unnecessarily hung up on the drawbacks of my options here? I really hope there is, or it looks like my app will have to revert to polling (which is looking marginally cheaper in my preliminary metrics).

Tamer Hosny says performing in Palestine would be a dream come true
After rumors began spreading that the reason Egyptian superstar Tamer Hosny refused to hold a live concert in Palestine was that he could not reach an agreement on the organizers on wage, the singer immediately denied reports.
According to the Middle East news portal Elaph, Tamer Facebooked a short statement, saying, "To clarify news reports in Al Watan Newspaper stating that I refused to hold a concert in Palestine because of financial reasons, I say that I was never offered to hold any performance in the occupied lands, and it would be an honor and a dream come true for me to hold a concert in Palestine and sing for Palestinians, because everyone knows how much I love the Palestinian people. No one has the right to interfere in the bond I have with the Palestinian people and beg of those creating these lies to validate what they write. Tamer Hosni".
Tamer's statement received mixed reviews from the masses, with many considering his denial of the rumor as a positive thing, and others ridculing him for it.
Where do you stand on the Tamer/ Palestine mixup? Please share by commenting below!

Reviewing this book is somewhat difficult because I am hard pressed to decide for what audience it was intended. The editor, John N. Walton, is an acknowledged authority in the area of muscle diseases. The 32 contributors are all well known and experts in this field. The major deficit is the sketchiness of the sections on "Clinical Problems in Muscle Disease." The first edition was aimed primarily at the clinician, and the scope of the second edition was broadened to include other disorders of the neuromuscular apparatus, ostensibly to review all diseases of the lower motor neuron. This would appear to be an excellent ménage of clinically related topics in one volume. Unfortunately the selection of material is poor, the weakest area is clinical problems. The chapter on peripheral nerve diseases is so thin on clinical description as to be little more than an outline; there is no meat. The

I went to school for radio, but have been fooling around with computers since the early days when my Dad had a Texas Instruments computer that had a cassette tape for a drive. After the web started taking off, I began fooling around with HTML in my spare time. Eventually, I enjoyed it so much that I made web design/programming/administration my full-time job. I freelance for a bunch of clients because it lets me dip my toes in a ton of different technologies and business models.

College football could have one more neutral-site kickoff game beginning in 2016. The Tennessean reports that officials in Nashville are planning an "annual, high-profile, early-season college football game."
The season-opening contest would match an SEC team against "a high-quality team from another conference" at LP Field, the home of the NFL's Tennessee Titans.
"Music City Sports and Entertainment Group has been working on a significant college football event for Nashville, and we are about 60-90 days from making an announcement," Tammy Genovese, CEO of MCSEG, told The Tennessean.
Nashville is seeking to model their kickoff game after the Chick-fil-a Kickoff Game, which last year reportedly pumped $35.5 million into Atlanta's economy.
According to the report, there is a potential "stumbling block" due to the state's occupational privilege tax on athletes. The group is exploring an amendment to that tax, and it is set to be brought to the state Senate and House next week.
For the 2014 season, there are five neutral site kickoff-style games set for opening weekend:
AdvoCare Texas Kickoff (Houston, TX)
LSU vs. Wisconsin
Chick-fil-A Kickoff Game (Atlanta, GA)
Boise State vs. Ole Miss
Alabama vs. West Virginia
Cowboys Classic (Arlington, TX)
Florida State vs. Oklahoma State
Croke Park Classic (Dublin, Ireland)
UCF vs. Penn State
Other neutral-site games set for opening weekend in 2014 include Ohio State vs. Navy (at Baltimore, MD) and Colorado vs. Colorado State (at Denver, CO).
New York's Yankee Stadium should also have a Kickoff Classic with the ACC vs at large?
In the middle of the baseball season? Brilliant. Do you get votes in the senate as well?
I'm excited to see how the UCF-Penn St. game goes in Ireland – with no "Fighting Irish" on one of the sidelines.
I hope this turns out to be Auburn vs Virginia Tech, Auburn vs Virginia, Auburn vs UNC or Auburn vs Nc State, or better yet Auburn vs FSU
Auburn vs FSU would be awesome to see! Even better if it's broadcast on CBS!
eh….. as long as Verne & Gary don't do commentary
Yankee Stadium should host Rutgers vs. BC or Syracuse; & Wrigley Field should host illinois vs. mizzou.
I'd also like to see Iowa vs. KU or KState at Arrowhead Stadium.

Overall, great plugin. Very impressed.
One thing I did notice is that strip_shortcodes() does not pull these shortcodes out of content. I'm guessing that's because you're not using the official shortcode api and registering those shortcodes, but I haven't dug too deep yet.
Posts and pages with image sliders from your plugin still have their shortcodes displayed when using excerpts or displaying on other pages :/

Sorry if this has been answered, but have been searching a long time to no avail... all the answers appear to relate to those hosting their own sites, while mine is being held prisoner on a third party site.
I don't think I realized when I set up my blog that it would get eaten by the host community, and there's no feature to unlink from it from within that "wp" profile. Why is that?
I want to extricate myself from this other site, (which I have no interest in participating in) and register the domain name on wp.com!
What do I have to do? I cannot seem to log in to the .com site, yet I know it's mine. I still have the old activation key, but on their .org site I have nowhere to enter it.
Am hoping this is something that can be corrected through WP since I don't really want to have to deal with the other party and might wait forever anyways?

On Sunday Night, you will enjoy a sparkling wine reception and dinner in the historic J. Davies Vineyards, prepared by one of the Napa Valley's fine chefs. This is your Camp orientation and will prepare you for the two days ahead. On Monday, you will start with breakfast at Meadowood Napa Valley. Then it is off to the vineyards with Winemakers Hugh Davies and Sean Thompson, where you will harvest grapes that are literally "ripe for the picking". Learn how vineyard location, soil content, viticultural practices, and clonal selection play a critical part in creating the complex flavors in Schramsberg wines. You will also receive hands-on experience as you obtain an overview of the
sparkling winemaking process - from harvest through bottling. For lunch, delicacies prepared by Meadowood Valley's chefs, will be used to illustrate how ingredients can complement and contrast wine flavors. A full afternoon of food and sparkling wine pairings follow, under the direction of Holly Peterson. Holly will guide you through basic to advanced component tastings, and will teach campers the art of sabering open a bottle of sparkling wine. Finish the day with an optional dinner at a local restaurant gem ($135 per person, in addition to the camp fee).
Tuesday starts with breakfast at Meadowood Napa Valley and is followed by a tour of Schramsberg's historic caves, a riddling demonstration, and working with the winemakers to create a personalized dosage for your own bottle of bubbly. Lunch, prepared by the Meadowood Napa Valley's culinary team, leads into a group sparkling wine menu creation contest. The program finishes with awards for the best menus and a chance to mingle
with your fellow graduates.
The fee for Camp Schramsberg is $1,300 per person (15% discount for wine club members). Lodging and travel to/from Napa is not included. A recommended lodging list is available by request and packages through Meadowood Napa Valley are available.
Exposure to extreme temperatures while in transit has been proven to damage wine. In an effort to maintain our high standards of quality, we may only offer 2-Day Air shipping for states outside of CA through the online site. Additional shipping options (overnight, delayed, ground or FedEx cold chain shipping) may also be available by contacting the winery directly at 800-877-3623 (weekdays) 707-942-2419 (weekends and holidays).
At our discretion, orders placed on Wednesday through Sunday may NOT ship until the following Monday or Tuesday. If you need expedited shipping, please call us at 800-877-3623 (weekdays only) and we will make every attempt to help out. Orders take 24 48 hours to process before shipping. We do not process orders over the weekend.
Not all shipping options are available to all states. If you would like to pick up your order at the winery, please select that option when you are on the checkout page for your order, or contact us at 800-877-3623 (weekdays) or 707-942-2419 (weekends only) to make those arrangements. We do not have overnight shipping listed as a shipping option in our online store, but we welcome you to place your order by phone, and every effort will be made to accommodate your special request. We strongly encourage you to select a business address for shipping, as the law dictates that no packages of wine can be left without an adult signature obtained by the driver.

Nashville Predators hope to improve from within
Injuries undermined the Nashville Predators' playoff bid this season. But the high body count did allow the organization to speed the development of several younger players, creating the potential for a big bounce back season in 2013-14.
The Predators took a long look at eight players who started the season with Milwaukee of the American Hockey League.
The real gem might be defenseman Victor Bartley, who stepped up on the second defensive pairing with Kevin Klein and scored seven points in 24 games. Bartley, a European free agent signed in 2011, climbed over high draft picks Ryan Ellis and Johnathon Blum on the organizational depth chart.
Not bad for a player who was never draft by a NHL team.
"He can give you power-play minutes if need-be. He kills penalties. He's a big guy and in very good shape," Admirals coach Dean Evason told the Tennesseean. "He's just a real, real solid two-way guy who is that type of guy who could be in the league for a very long time."
Big forward Taylor Beck could also be a key player for the offensively challenged Predators. He scored seven points in 16 games for Nashville after producing 41 points in 50 AHL games.
"He is a very talented guy, and arguably our most talented guy here all year," Evason said. "He has skills, obviously NHL skills. What he's had to work on through the years is to combine his skill set with a competitiveness and a gritty power forward mentality. … He was learning to play that way. Fortunately he has been given his opportunity and made the best of it."

Sorry. Not even if you ask me nicely at Slog Happy. Not even if you pay me. This isn't a funny-bad driver's license photo. This is a very, very bad driver's license photo.

Ok dear ladies of the BHB I'm translating a document and need help figuring out if what I'm saying is translated correctly in Spanish jargon vs a direct translation that leaves the Spanish reader confused.
When discussing a case study like that done in a scientific enviorment I called it, "estudio de caso"

Climatic Change
An Interdisciplinary, International Journal Devoted to the Description, Causes and Implications of Climatic Change
Climatic Change is dedicated to the totality of the problem of climatic variability and change - its descriptions, causes, implications and interactions among these. The purpose of the journal is to provide a means of exchange among those working in different disciplines on problems related to climatic variations. This means that authors have an opportunity to communicate the essence of their studies to people in other climate-related disciplines and to interested non-disciplinarians, as well as to report on research in which the originality is in the combinations of (not necessarily original) work from several disciplines. The journal also includes vigorous editorial and book review sections.

Suspect killed, Pa. officer wounded in 18-hour standoff
Trooper Brian King was struck in the ballistic face shield by the suspect, who was killed when police returned fire
Associated Press
LATROBE, Pa. — An armed robbery suspect who had kept western Pennsylvania police at bay for about 18 hours was shot to death Friday by a tactical team.
Pennsylvania State Police identified the man inside the Latrobe house as Scott Murphy, 46, a robbery suspect accused of stealing several hundred pills from a pharmacy. That's about 40 miles east of Pittsburgh.
After Murphy refused numerous requests that he surrender, police tried to enter the building just before noon. Murphy opened fire, striking one officer's protective face shield. Other tactical team members returned fire and Murphy was later pronounced dead.
Capt. Stephen Eberle identified the injured officer as Trooper Brian King, a 15-year veteran and a former Penn State football player. He was reported to be in stable condition at UPMC Presbyterian hospital in Pittsburgh. Eberle said the shield may have saved the officer's life.
King was a safety for Penn State from 1992-95. He was part of the undefeated Penn State lineup in 1994-95 that defeated Oregon in the Rose Bowl, 38-20.
The incident began shortly after 6 p.m. Thursday when police acted on a tip that Murphy was involved with the robbery.
Police cordoned off the block where Murphy lived and even shut off electrical power to the area for several hours, urging some residents to evacuate and warning others to stay indoors as the standoff stretched into Friday afternoon.
Police believe Murphy robbed the Precision Care Pharmacy in Latrobe about 2:25 p.m. Thursday, taking prescription pills after brandishing a small handgun, according to Trooper Brian Thomas. Police were led to the home by a license plate number given by a witness to the robbery. Murphy doesn't own the car, but he reportedly had permission to use it about the time of the robbery, police said.
When police arrived at Murphy's house, other people came out but Murphy refused.
"The family members advised that he has several handguns and long rifles," Thomas said.
As the standoff stretched through Friday morning it became clear that little progress was being made. Negotiators had tried playing recorded pleas from Murphy's mother and girlfriend, but later police could be heard taunting him through bullhorns.
"Nothing but a loser in there," one negotiator yelled, while later Murphy was disparagingly called "a girl." Murphy had reportedly told police he would not be taken alive. At various points, police could be seen firing flash-bang grenades into the home, which are meant to disorient armed suspects.
At another point a camera mounted on a small, remote-controlled robot was sent into or near the house. Such devices are used to help police see into standoff situations without endangering officers.

The third cinematic chapter in The Hunger Games saga, Mockingjay Part 1, won't be out until Nov. 21, but Panem is giving us a taste now with a crop of propaganda posters.
The last time Katniss and Peeta competed on-screen in Catching Fire there was no happy ending. The Girl on Fire woke up to find herself being transported to the rumored District 13, while the Boy Who Really Knows How to Frost Cakes was taken by The Capitol. It's clear that the rigid 12-district hierarchy of the Hunger Games is at its breaking point. So how does the crown jewel of Panem, The Capitol, respond?
With some choreographed spin, of course! Instead of focusing on the rabble-rousing characters portrayed by Jennifer Lawrence and Josh Hutcherson, the first posters for Mockingjay are a stylized look at the unfamiliar faces of Panem. Each stunning shot, designed to be coming straight from The Capitol, salutes an unsung district hero and the special goods his or her home provides. Looks like the bigwigs of the Hunger Games are content to fight the rebellion with lies, but, as fans know, these sleek, well-designed bits of propaganda won't hold up for long.
Take a look at the first disturbingly beautiful posters for Mockingjay Part 1 below, and get to know the other residents of Panem.

Those same old faces in the Republican party (Boehner, McCain, McConnell, Graham) keep screwing things up. This time it's Lindsey Graham of South Carolina who is POUTING that a PET PROJECT for his state did not get funded. Graham can fund this project out of his OWN pocket.
Sick of these republicans who want that pork. What's up with SC voters or for that matter, AZ voters?
Nothing has changed it's the same old group, protecting their turf with no room for the new cowboys.
No trust in the old guard of the republican party. They' re going to split votes in 2012.

And you people somehow still think that one party or the other is on your side....
The budget battle has absolutely nothing to do with americans.....
it is purely politics.......either dems or repubs....no different.....
Until all funding for (150) foreign countries and 3 wars are stopped....
neither the repubs, dems or o-bribe-a is serious about cutting spending or reducing the deficit.

BTW.....boehner, cantor, ryan and mcconnell will ensure that o-bribe-a is re-elected.

Medicare has about 75 TRILLION dollars in unfunded liabilites. It is welfare after people have been on it for six months and it is welfare from day one for women who did not work and who are on Medicare. It pays people thousands of times more money in health care than the one-percent they paid into the program while they were working.

The social security trust fund only contains US Treasury Securities. Whenever they run a deficit (and they have run a monthly deficit several times in the past and are projected to do so more and more frequently) they must use thier US Treasury Securities to make up the difference. To pay out these US Tresury Securities the US must either generate more revenue (higher taxes) or borrowing more.
There was never a private account, It was and still is a government account with only treasury bonds as assets. In other words just an accounting trick.
If you think I am wrong please tell me what non-government assets (gold, real estate, stock, corporate bonds, foriegn curency...) you think they held at one point.

I think you are wrong. Just as a bank doesn't place your savings in a vault. They take your money, and loan it out to someone else. They charge that person interest of which they give you some. SS is the same way, They don't want to have trillions of dollars just sitting around. They loaned it out so it can earn interest. Some of the money was loaned to the US government, relieving them of the burden of having to borrow from the Chinese. The US government agreed to pay interest on that money. SS still has those loans outstanding and expects to get paid.
The money was paid into that account, by our taxes, and by me specifically. Congress decided to borrow that money at a good rate for the federal government, not particularly good for the SS account. SS can call in that loan at any time, and the government has to pay it back, the same way you would have to pay on your loans under the same conditions. If SS simply upped the interest rate to the same rate that most credit card companies charge, SS would be financially sound as long as the federal government existed. If they ceased to exist, SS would have claim on the assets.
Therefore, in order to improve our economy, reduce unemployment, increase consumer spending, increase federal revenue, I suggest the retirement age be lowered to 60 and the retirement benefits be doubled. It is more than affordable. It provides people with access to the money they paid in.

1. Why is Social SECURITY in trouble? could it be that politicians RAIDED the extra money leftover from contributions and SPENT it on other programs?
Could it be that politicians TAXES Social Security to get more revenue from their UNending government programs?
2. Bet the politicians have the BEST healthcare and WE, the people, pay for it! WE WANT THE SAME HEALTHCARE AS POLITICIANS
3. Now, BOTH parties want to take away Medicare, Medicaid and Social Security. Babyboomers...that's just 30 more yrs of them and then.... THEY ARE GONE! They'll be dying off and the strain of their care won't be present.
4. Beware YOUTH of Tomorrow, just look what the politicans are doing to Babyboomers (who CONTRIBUTED beaucoup bucks to the government during their lifespan)
5. Politicians of both parties are evil. They make sure they have what they want, but cut others' programs.
6. We're stuck as a nation. Maybe sitting out the vote in 2012, cause there are no good candidates anywhere.
#37 Apr 13, 2011
So who did the SS admin loan it to? Answer - the US Treasury. In return they got lots of pretty sheets of paper that said with nice wording about the "full faith and trust of the US government". That where all of the money went, not some, ALL. Every time they cash in one of those nice papers the US Treasury needs to either borrow or tax more to pay for it. They are doing it more and more often.
So in your strange deluded world having higher taxes and more borrowing by the federal government strengthens our economy and creats jobs. Wow you are realy messed up.
P.S. If you would still like to tell me what non-government assets (gold, real estate, stock, corporate bonds, foriegn curency...) you think they held at one point pease go ahead. I am still waiting.

SANTA CLARA, Calif. -- Colin Kaepernick is improving his media game.
Is that important? Yes, allow me to explain why.
Generally, media members couldn't care less if a player wants to cooperate. If they want to talk, we love to get their insights and express them to the football-craved world. If they are reluctant, that's OK, too. I'm not going to force anyone to talk to me. There are plenty of other players in the locker room.
A starting quarterback, however, is a different story.
As the quarterback of the San Francisco 49ers, Kaepernick is a face of the franchise. He has the power to mold the message during the good and bad. After a rough news conference to start the season, Kaepernick seems to be starting to understand that role.
He is one of the more talented, exciting players in the game and, by all accounts, he is a solid, friendly and happy person off the field.
But Kaepernick was doing himself a disservice earlier in the season by treating his short, twice-weekly media sessions (on Wednesdays and after games) as a form of personal torture. He seemed miserable talking to reporters.
I was shocked at how purposely uninteresting Kaepernick made himself look on the Wednesday before the Green Bay game. It was my first time around Kaepernick in person. I had interviewed him on the phone prior to the draft and as the AFC West blogger. I had come away from those experiences thinking Kaepernick was an excellent interview. Not this time.
Albeit polite and patient, Kaepernick showed no personality as he robotically gave painfully short and unhelpful answers. He looked like he wanted to be anywhere but there. I'd never seen an NFL quarterback conduct himself like that in a press setting.
As these types of interviews continued (including on conference calls with media covering the opposing team), folks started to notice. Reporters passed along how many words Kaepernick -- who, by the way, was never rude or mean spirited -- uttered in his news conferences. Here's a hint: it wasn't a lot. ESPN's "SportsCenter" anchors commented on how short and joyless Kaepernick was on camera.
But since last week, Kaepernick has clearly made an effort to give more thoughtful answers. He even smiles some while doing it. Wednesday, he was even playful as he led a media throng to an enclave of the locker room inhabited by a shy offensive line. Everyone thought Kaepernicks' gag was a hoot.
Kaepernick showed he has a personality and went a long way. And that's all he has to do: Give a little effort. We don't have to be friends, but our few minutes a week together should not be a visit to the dentist either.
Kaepernick is a bright light for this organization and likely will be for the next decade. It's good for the public to see him enjoying himself. He also deserves a little time to grow into this role. Unlike fellow young quarterbacks Andrew Luck, Russell Wilson and Robert Griffin III, Kaepernick was under the radar while starring at Nevada. Then he was a backup quarterback, with little media responsibility, before taking over for Alex Smith in an awkward situation last season.
Much like on the field, Kaepernick is still growing in front of the lights. But as long as his efforts continue to be strong, no one can complain. I'd be lying if I said Kaepernick's improved media work will make him a better player. But it could make him a better-liked player. There's nothing wrong with that.

This prefabricated house for an art collector and his family was built in the outskirts of Santiago in a new suburban residential area. In order to reduce construction time and costs, second hand shipping containers were used as follow: Five 40 "standard containers, Six 20" standard containers and one 40" open top container for the swimming pool.
The main purposes of the house were two: the first one was to integrate it to the territory of this part of the city where the presence of the Andes Mountain is extremely strong both visually and tectonically. The second one was to allow the external air to run smoothly and easily through the all house and its different parts In order to avoid mechanical cooling.

MetacognitionSource: Costa (nd)
Metacognition is our ability to know what we know and what we don't know.(See Graphic 6)
It is our ability to plan a strategy for producing what information is needed, to be conscious of our own steps and strategies during the act of problem solving, and to reflect on and evaluate the productiveness of our own thinking.
Major components – developing a plan of action. Marinating that plan in mind over a period of time, then reflecting back on evaluating the plan upon it's completion.

??!! Snakes on a Plane (Almost)
posted by May 24 at 9:48 AMon
CAIRO, Egypt (AP) — Customs officers at Cairo's airport have detained a man bound for Saudi Arabia who was trying to smuggle 700 live snakes on a plane, airport authorities said.
The officers were stunned when a passenger, identified as Yahia Rahim Tulba, told them his carryon bag contained live snakes after he was asked to open it.
Tulba opened his bag to show the snakes to the police and asked the officers, who held a safe distance, not to come close. Among the various snakes, hidden in small cloth sacks, were two poisonous cobras, authorities said.
The Egyptian said he had hoped to sell the snakes in Saudi Arabia.
