White House Science Czar Orders No Political Interference in Global Warming Sham
**Written by Doug Powers
People like the US De-Developer in Chief John Holdren certainly don't seem to mind "political interference" when that interference is helping promote their cause and fleece taxpayers, but when the tables turn and some skeptics enter the scene, all of a sudden science is off limits to politics:
John Holdren, director of the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy, issued a memorandum Friday to the heads of all federal departments and agencies calling for "a clear prohibition on political interference in scientific processes and expanded assurances of transparency."
The memorandum comes as the science upon which key administration decisions are made on issues like climate change is being challenged by many Republicans in Congress. As the next Congress approaches, key members of the new House Republican majority have said they plan to challenge the Environmental Protection Agency's efforts to regulate greenhouse gas emissions.
I'm sure the timing of the Wizard's sudden attempt to kick Toto away from the curtain is completely unrelated to man-made global warming skeptic Rep. Jim Sensenbrenner being named vice chairman of the House Science Committee last week.
Look no further than last month at the administration's bogus "scientific" rationale behind the Gulf drilling ban for evidence that "government science" should never be handed an accountability waiver.
All Holdren wants is for select "scientists" to have say over almost every aspect of our lives and unfettered access to our money all while we're completely powerless to do anything about it. Why drag politics into it?

When you put your body through an intense workout, you need to properly fuel up with sufficient calories. If you're trying to lose weight, 1,200 calories a day is the bare mininum, but very active folks concerned about hitting a wall will have to eat much more than that.
Once you determine the right number of calories to support your needs, make sure to hit it daily to keep your body fueled and energized. Regularly underconsuming calories can deplete your glycogen stores, and make you more likely to bonk during a workout.

Santi Cazorla's first-half strike was enough for Arsenal to defeat Sunderland 1-0 at the Stadium of Light despite losing Carl Jenkinson to a red card after 62 minutes.
Cazorla's fine finish was the highlight of an impressive performance from the Spaniard, though he so nearly added an assist when his sumptuous pass put Theo Walcott clear, only for the winger to hit the post.
At that stage Arsenal had already been reduced to 10 men when Jenkinson received a second yellow for a clumsy challenge on Stephane Sessegnon and Sunderland laid siege to the Arsenal goal in the closing stages with Wojciech Szczesny making a succession of fine saves and Titus Bramble guilty of a horrendous miss.
But thanks in no small part to a giant performance from Bacary Sagna in the unfamiliar position of centre-back, Arsenal held on for the win that ensures they remain within four points of North London rivals Tottenham in fifth and overtake Everton, who play Manchester United on Sunday.
Arsenal lost Laurent Koscielny to a calf problem in the warm-up so Jenkinson's name was hastily scribbled into the starting XI, with Sagna moving into the centre to take up an unfamiliar role alongside Per Mertesacker.
Sunderland hoped to take advantage of any uncertainty in the opening minute as they flung a ball into the heart of the Arsenal defence for Alfred N'Diaye, only for the midfielder to fail to get a clean header away.
A hectic, physical opening brought a flurry of chances. Theo Walcott almost scored after two minutes when his low drive was repelled by Simon Mignolet and the winger was denied by the Belgian again soon after when finding space to the right of the box and rifling in an effort from a tight angle.
Lee Cattermole - one of two changes for Sunderland as he made his first start since suffering knee ligament damage in November - was soon back into his combative stride when being booked for a lusty challenge on Aaron Ramsey after only two minutes. Seven minutes later Jenkinson joined him in the book for a foul on Jack Colback as the game developed a robust edge.
Sunderland threatened only sporadically - Steven Fletcher going close with a header from a free-kick - and the visitors took firm control of the game, with Jack Wilshere and Cazorla knitting some superb passing moves together and Walcott a constant threat when cutting in from the right.
With Olivier Giroud having an off day, wasting one fine chance by dragging a shot wide of the post, Arsenal lacked a clinical dimension and were repeatedly denied by Mignolet, not least when the keeper tipped a strong drive from Ramsey wide and then denied the same player an almost certain goal from close range.
However, the impressive Cazorla put Arsenal in front after 35 minutes. Wilshere was the catalyst with a trademark driving run from midfield and when Walcott laid the ball off for the Spaniard, he pinged a low shot past Mignolet with the toe of his boot.
But Wilshere's bright afternoon was brought to an end on 50 minutes when he sustained an injury on his already strapped thigh following a minor collision with N'Diaye. England's man of the match against Brazil was removed from the game, with Abou Diaby on in his place, and in the next few minutes both Ramsey and Mikel Arteta sustained knocks to leave Arsenal's midfield resembling the supporting cast of Casualty.
As Cazorla and Giroud both flashed fine efforts narrowly wide of the post, Arsenal were given a warning as to their vulnerability when Sunderland broke following a Ramsey mistake, Sessegnon drew Sagna to the centre and then played in Fletcher, who lashed his shot criminally wide of the post.
Arsenal's efforts to secure a second and kill the game off were hindered after 62 minutes when Jenkinson was shown a second yellow card for a clumsy challenge on Sessegnon, yet still they attacked, with Diaby shooting at Mignolet and Walcott hitting the base of the post with a neat finish following a gorgeous through-ball from Cazorla.
Sunderland began to put more pressure on their opponents though, and should have equalised on 78 minutes when Fletcher saw a close-range effort expertly saved by Szczesny, even if he handled in the build-up.
With Giroud wasting further chances in attack, Arsenal had to rely on their defence to win them the game and Sagna and Mertesacker both produced superb displays to keep Sunderland at bay. Szczesny excelled too, making an outstanding save to tip a header from Fletcher over the bar and then keeping out a fine effort from Adam Johnson.
Titus Bramble was also guilty of a glaring miss when the ball bounced up to him eight yards from goal, but Arsenal were ultimately good value for the three points as Sagna helped secure a valuable clean sheet.
Bacary Sagna (Arsenal) - The France international has had a poor couple of months for Arsenal but this was a gigantic performance in an unfamiliar position and he made a succession of crucial clearances.

Poor Chris Smalling.
He had been doing fairly well for Manchester United, cementing a starting spot after injuries to Phil Jones and Jonny Evans saw him elevated to first choice at the club.
But two reckless fouls in the Manchester derby saw the England defender dismissed and widely blamed for the narrow 1-0 defeat, which - following an injury to Marcos Rojo - ended with youngster Paddy McNair and midfielder Michael Carrick as the centre-back partnership.
Even his manager Louis van Gaal chimed in with criticism, calling the former Fulham defender "stupid" for getting himself sent off in theRead More »from Chris Smalling trolled by Virgin Trains after derby disaster

Hello Community,
I have a problem with a query on my website. When I load the page it is incredibly slow and only after over 12 seconds the content starts showing. I have installed a debug plugin and found the query that takes so long. The output of the plugin is the following:
Time: 12,315.2ms (12.315196037292s)
Query: SELECT SQL_CALC_FOUND_ROWS meruca_posts.ID FROM meruca_posts WHERE 1=1 AND ( meruca_posts.ID NOT IN (

Function: WP_Query->get_posts()
(meruca_ is my table prefix)
I have only basic understanding of mysql and can't really see, what may cause this to take so long. If anybody has an idea what I could change it would be much appreciated.
There are about 5k posts on the site right now which isn't too many and it is running on a dedicated server that should have much more than sufficient resourced for any query theoretically.

BYU will travel to Atlanta, Georgia on Saturday for their 10th ACC game, in which they hold a lackluster 2-10 record all-time. As 2.5-point underdogs, the Cougars will need to play hard on the road to beat the 3-4 Yellow Jackets.
GT leads the nation in total rushing yards since 2008, and that could be quite the problem as BYU's weakness as of late has been rushing defense. If the Cougs want to win, their front seven will need to step up.
Here are four other keys to beating the Yellow Jackets.

What is the most fuel efficient used light pickup?
I will soon be in the market for a used car and am thinking of getting a pickup. Likely I'll be looking at trucks that are roughly 10 years old (I am flexible but want something new enough to not have a lot of maintenance issues). My biggest priority is having the least impact on the environment I can while still driving a pickup truck. What should I shop for? [more inside]
How Long Has This Been A Thing?
In the last year, I've noticed more people flying American flags from the beds of pickup trucks. I did some travelling earlier this month and also saw this in Arizona and Utah, but not in Washington DC. The reason for that geographic distinction might be obvious; a different demographic lives and works in the DC Metro area than Salt Lake, Tucson or Portland. But it reminds me of the couple of years right after 9-1-1, when people were flying little flags from their driver's windows. [more inside]

Help me pickout a pickup truck?
I want a pick-up truck that gets good gas mileage, preferably manual transmission, can seat at least 5 people (4 doors), and has at least dual airbags (preferably side curtain airbags?) I'd like to spend under $6,000 and I generally prefer Japanese, but I am not 100% set on that. It seems I'll be getting a small truck with extended or "king" cab, early 2000's I guess. I have never bought a pickup truck before and I'm a little lost.

Jasper v. Ford Remanufactured Engines
My '08 F-150 likely needs a different engine. I do not want an engine out of a wreck or from the junk yard or one rebuilt by a local shop. I am looking for a remanufactured engine.

About to buy my first used pickup. I Know very little about prices and mechanics.
Hey! So i am about to buy my very first vehicle and am pretty excited about the whole deal. My budget is no more than 5k and I am looking to get me a used small pickup truck. It seems like my best options are either a T100, Tacoma, frontier or a b2500. Are those considered reliable used pick ups? What kind of year/mileage y'all think 5k could bring? I am thinking a 2000 with about 120000 miles. Does that seems reasonable? The truck should be very reliable and could take some abuse, I don't really care about towing much because it will be used mainly for tools. I know VERY little about cars and mechanics and wouldn't even know the first thing to look out for when looking at a potential truck... I've been told to insist on a clean title, see that the engine and transmission are in good order, and pass it by a reliable mechanic. Anything else? Thank you for your time!

drain on Ford F150's new battery?
Help us diagnose our Ford F150: what could be draining down the (new) battery overnight? We're suddenly seeing apparent battery drainage in our pickup truck, a 1994 Ford F150. Though the truck starts up fine, the dashboard battery gauge reads low immediately upon ignition, the windshield wipers are sluggish, and the dashboard lights are dim. We thought the old battery was likely dying, so we had it replaced with a new battery... but that hasn't solved the problem. [more inside]

Ford Pickups
I was just reading about how those massive, gas-hogging Ford F-350 etc pickup trucks are the bestselling "cars" in the United States, by a huge margin. While this seems absurd during $3 a gallon gas, I wonder when this started becoming the case that pickup trucks were the top sellers. This is just anecdotal, but it seems to me that in the 1970s the only people who drove the then quite smaller pickup trucks were people who used them for work. I can't quite believe there are that many independent contractors in the US who need to buy these outsized vehicles. As they suffer (most seemingly quite rightfully) at the pump, does anyone know where to find historical car sales data -- i.e., when did Ford pickups become the most popular car in America?

My truck's hard to start sometimes
I'm having problems with an 87' Nissan truck (5-speed). Recently when its been sitting for a day or so, me engine doesn't want to turn over at all when I turn the key and all I get is this "click" sound that is identical to how my old car sounded when my alternator went out. The thing is, if I turn the key a few times, it'll start and its fine for the rest of the day when I try to start the car. This "clicking" thing has happened a few times now, and I don't think its the battery (lights and everything work perfectly, and no problems with engine turning over when no click sound). Any ideas what might be wrong (gut instant says alternator is going, but just seeing if any other ideas).

Opinion: The British exodus to Australia - not so permanent after all?

Harrow council tenants could receive £20,000 cash incentive to move abroad

For years, thousands of Brits have left the UK in search for a better and sunnier lifestyle across the seas in Australia. According to the BBC, between 2005 and 2010 nearly 107,000 Britons settled for a new life there.
With Britain's economy struggling, and Australia having not only sunny weather but more job prospects, better wages, a lower cost of living and higher living standards, it's not surprising that so many have ditched the country's grey skies for a life down under.
However, it seems that in recent years an increasing number of Brits have found that what they thought would be a one-way trip to Australia hasn't turned out to be the dream lifestyle that they intended, with many returning home. Over 2009-2010, a total of 7,000 Brits left their Aussie way of life and returned to their motherland.
So the question is: why are so many Brits booking removal companies and moving back to the UK? Britain's economy may be picking up, but is in no way booming in the same way as Australia's. The performance of the Australian economy over the past 20 years has been 'rock solid' with consecutive year-on-year growth. And it doesn't look as though this trend is going to stop any time soon, with figures from 2013 revealing that GDP grew by a further 2.6%. With these strong figures, it seems surprising that Brits are leaving Australia's positive economy to go back to one that's still struggling to recover from a recession.
Yet, many Brits don't realise just how much they will miss their friends and family. Visiting them is no longer easy - it is not only time consuming (with the long haul flight around 22 hours) but also comes with a large expense. Many Brits have the outlook that if they could ship their friends and family across to Australia, then they would in a heart-beat. However, this isn't possible for most, so a less sunny life in Britain seems more appealing if it means being able to spend time with friends and family on a regular basis.
Furthermore, while some people go to Australia for the warm, sunny weather, many find that they don't actually enjoy living in a hot climate, having to deal with the flies and constant sun cream application.
In addition, the cost of living isn't as cheap as some Brits might think. For example, the cost of a pint of beer in Australia is in the third-highest among 17 different countries and basic amenities like food and clothes are much higher than a lot of Brits expect. So although wages are higher in Australia, many find themselves spending a large percentage of their income on expensive necessities and discovering that you actually need a lot of money to enjoy the country properly.
So even though Australia's economy remains very positive, it seems as if for many Brits the move abroad isn't so permanent after all, and a life in Britain is much more appealing than they might have initially thought. As the UK's economy continues to grow and improve, perhaps more Brits who are currently living a life down under will flee back to their motherland.

I run a weather blog and we use emails sent by the National Weather Service to post severe weather alerts. As such, time is of the essence and I really need to be checking once a minute instead of once every 5 minutes. I was using the functionality built into WordPress, but it is being deprecated. I'd like to use Postie, but I cannot if I'm limited to 5 minute checks.
So...I know that you can do checks manually in Postie. Is there a certain address I could use to trigger a manual check? If so, I can use wget in a cron job to check the address each minute (this was the way I did it on the old system).
If not, would it be possible to produce an update which allow faster checking?

Back County Pack Trips and Tail Rides
Idaho Summer Pack Trips into the Back Country
Would you like a "Go back in time adventure"? Where you would be like the first mountain man, just you and the vast wilderness! Then experience our unique horseback trip to the turn of the previous century at the "Historic Gilmore Ranch" This is a one of a kind trip by horse back into this road less area, where we live as they did a hundred year ago. We overnight in the original 1930's Barton Cabin and by day ride into the vast endless forest, hike or fish a virgin mountain stream. In the evening we site around a camp fire and reminisce after viewing deer, elk or moose grazing in the meadow before the sun sets.
The Gilmore Brothers (Elmer, Fred and Sam) home steaded the area in the late 1800's and had a Bed and Breakfast lodging riders passing through during the Gold rush days. They raised cattle and farmed the land with the farm equipment still standing still in the meadows.
Fred lived in the side of the mountain and Elmer had the B&B lodge. Sam built a cabin but never lived in it and it still stands as a ghost form the past. There is so much history here and we would love to share it with you.
The back country trips are great for wild life viewing. Pictures below were all taken by our guests on thier special trip to the Historic Gilmore Ranch. You will see Rocky Mountain Rlk, White Tail deer and the occasional Shirus Moose in the pond.
Horse Trail riding, Hiking, Fishing, Gold Panning, Relax in one of the hammocks, Wild life viewing is best in June and early July, Photography. Join us on this mountain ride for a lasting memory! Trips include all meals, and lodging. Ages 10 years and older are invited to join us on these magical trips.
Trips are limited during the summer months.
Rafting, Jet boating, and Fishing activities are booked with permitted and licensed outfitters in the state of Idaho. Fees for rafting, jet boating and fishing activities are to be paid directly to the outfitter operating that trip. If you are paying by a credit card you will see the charges for activities separated and charged by the specific outfitter.

did non off the above, they charged us acct settlement fees every month anywhere from $210 to $440, but they did not settle any accts, they say we have $2611 in a escrow acct, and they negotiated two accts for us.
What they did was on our last statement, payed off the exact balance origanally due then charge us again $77.35 for another settlement fee, they did no negotiating. Then filed for Bankruptcy themselves! so that means what for our little $2611 escrow acct? and the other $4800 that has been taken from us for phony acct settlements? Is this the case for most of their clients? have they actually done what they stated they would for anyone? Then you might ask yourself how this company could possibly be bankrupt if they just recieved money from their cleints, did nothing but pay a couple of accts the original balance due and then pocket the rest!
They should be loaded with cash! Who is going to let this happen and not ask that question? what is going on? no regulations, no licence requirements from the states or government? This is an OUTRAGE! Where are all the lawyers looking for a case that could really help people out of getting taken for all this money? Are they really going to let them file for bankrupcy and steal all our money and start over and do it again? Please someone who has some answers Please!

Child-safety seat study passes only 21 of 98 vehicles
Published: Thursday, April 12, 2012 at 8:40 a.m.
Last Modified: Thursday, April 12, 2012 at 8:40 a.m.
Vehicle back-seat designs can make it hard to install child-safety seats correctly — despite changes required a decade ago to make the process easy, according to a new report out today.
Just 21 of 98 vehicles tested met all of the requirements for ease of use, says the report by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety and the University of Michigan Transportation Research Institute. Seven of the 2011 vehicles didn't meet any requirements.
The attachment system, known as LATCH (for Lower Anchors and Tethers for Children), was mandated a decade ago because inspections frequently found child-safety seats were installed incorrectly. A 2004 report by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration found three out of four child seats and booster seats had " critical misuse" problems that could increase the risk of injury.
Cars, SUVs and pickups were tested based on whether the child-seat anchors were visible, easily accessible and usable without excessive force. For example, if more than 40 pounds of force was needed to secure the seat, the vehicle didn't pass muster.
Parents may blame themselves, but often these days, " the problem lies with the vehicle, not the user," said IIHS senior vice president of research and study co-author Anne McCartt.
The study found belt buckles or other seat hardware can get in the way of the child-seat connectors, or the anchors can be buried so far in the seat that they're hard to reach. The researchers also found most parents fail to use the upper tether that is designed to secure the top part of the car seat in the event of a crash. These straps prevent front-facing child seats from moving forward too much in a crash, which can cause head or neck injuries.
In a statement, Chrysler noted that "there are many different sizes and shapes of child restraint systems on the market" that automakers have to consider. Ford said LATCH " ease of use ... is highly dependent on the design of the child-restraint hardware that attaches to the anchor."
Child-safety advocate Joseph Colella acknowledges it isn't easy. After his 3-year-old niece died in a 1994 crash in a child seat that didn't fit the car, Colella pushed to make child seats more compatible. His efforts led to the federal panel that recommended LATCH.
"Compatibility issues need to be taken seriously by manufacturers," Colella says. "A 2012 vehicle needs to work with today's car seat designs, but it must also be compatible with models developed over the next 20 years."
Trade groups representing car- and child-seat makers have a joint working group to address such issues.

'Not Fade Away' captures rhythm of rock 'n' roll, generational divide
Rock 'n' roll is a young person's game.
Like fashion, hairstyles, sex, drugs and other things designed to frustrate adults in general and parents in particular, young people use rock 'n' roll to discover identity and fraternity. With roots in basements and garages around the world, it rises from the ground up organically, and as if by common consensus rather than being imposed by corporate tastemakers. »Read Full Article

I have walked past this store a few times. When it was time to purchase a new pair of glasses, I wandered in. What a great selection of frames to choose from! They are all beautifully displayed. Asides from the frames selection, the staff (I spoke to Abdu and Gladys) were extremely helpful in helping me select a frame to best suit my face. I did not feel that they were pressurizing me to make a purchase. I enjoyed their honesty in selecting a frame and enjoyed my overall experience here!
Fantastic and quick service! Couldn't ask for better service considering I am on disability and do not have the most expensive pair of frames. I was treated like any other customer for some repair work right away at no cost. Thanks again! Regards, Matthew
Great place in general but one person that worked there was very rude and very unprofessional,her name was Nada or something like that I asked if she could explain the promotions going on for the two for one and she said ummmmm I already explained it to you ..you don't remember or something VERY UNPROFFECIONAL!! I was a regular customer at total focus but dealt with Amina (very sweet girl) and Gladis (another great lady) but after dealing with Nada definitely not going back again not very happy!

Spring lured lots of people outdoors over the weekend but some adventures ended in Search and Rescue missions.
Three incidences kept Mesa County Search and Rescue volunteers busy.
Friday night searchers found an Iowa man near Bangs Canyon who was overdue to meet friends after he experienced bike trouble.
Saturday an Eckert woman, hiking alone, got stranded on a ledge in the Kodells Canyon area. She used a cell phone to contact help.
And yesterday, Byron Bjornson of Grand Junction was hiking in Bangs Canyon and separated from his family.
After an all night search, he was found after he used his cell phone to reach rescuers. Bjornson spent the night in a piece of construction equipment he found.
Officials say no one was injured but none were ready for the elements and remind everyone to be prepared before heading outdoors. Be sure to pack a backpack of food, water, matches, map/GPS equipment, warm clothing, and a cell phone. Always tell someone where you're going so searchers have a place to start looking. They also say never to attempt finding someone yourself, call 911 immediately instead.

"Sailing Mid Dalmatia" Sibenik by FRONA
Sibenik Travel Guide: 172 reviews and 583 photos
Been to Sibenik a number of times. My team decided to stay over weekend and I joined for a very nice sail. Route was Marina Frapa in Rogoznica to Kaprije Island near Sibenik.
Sailors behold a few links!
http://www.inet.hr/~kperkovi/ (only Croatian but nice photos)
Kaprije place is car free!
The island of Kaprije is situated in the central part of the ?ibenik archipelago with the surface of 9.67km2. It was named after the Mediterranean plant kapara (caper - green buds of a plant, used pickled).
Here is more on Kaprije in English
We took a walk down in Kaprije town.
Check out what we found!
- Pros:Must do must see!
- Cons:If the bay is full could get crowdy :)
- In a nutshell:Great experience.
Reviews (2)
Direct access from the boat, in a secluded bay, grill, smell of Mediterannean, clean water, no noise. This little bay... more travel advice
Very nice glassed terrace in the centre of Sibenik, overlooking a little church. Its a coffee place, cocktail bar and... more travel advice

Savor the flavors of everyday real food, fresh from the garden or stored on your pantry shelves.
By Karen Keb
cooking, baking, cookbook, Karen Keb
I'm always hankering for dessert on the fly; "on the fly" because Hank and I have been trying to ditch refined sugar from our diet. So I don't really plan for dessert, but if I run across an inspiring recipe and I happen to have all the ingredients on hand, I'll decree that it's time for an indulgence. And why not? Spontaneity is the spice of life!
I have a mountain of cookbooks, and my most favorites are those with British or Irish authors. Their cooking style and combination of ingredients is the epitome of rustic country cooking and they welcome (rather than challenge) me to try anything they present. This delicious little creature is based on a recipe in Fran Warde's Food For Friends (Ryland Peters & Small Inc., London, 2002):
Lemon Polenta Cake
1 ½ sticks butter, softened
1 ¼ cups sugar
4 large eggs
2 large organic, unwaxed lemons
¾ cup Italian polenta or yellow cornmeal¾ cup self-rising flour
1 cup cream or faux cream (recipe follows)
1. Preheat the oven to 350°F. Butter an 8-inch casserole dish.
2. In a large mixing bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until creamy and smooth. Add eggs one at a time and mix well.
3. Grate the zest from both lemons and add to the batter. Squeeze the juice from 1 ½ lemons, add to the batter, and slice the remaining half lemon; set aside.
4. Add the polenta or cornmeal, and flour, mix well. Pour batter into buttered dish and arrange the reserved lemon slices around the top.
5. Bake for 35 minutes, until the sides separate from the dish, and a knife inserted comes out clean. Allow to cool before serving. Serve with a dollop of cream.
Faux Cream
I didn't have heavy whipping cream or ice cream on hand, so I created a substitute with what I did have since eating this cake without a dairy product would've been a crime. It was a light, non-cloying accompaniment for the cake.
1 cup sour cream
2 T fine sugar (baker's sugar)
¼ cup half and half
½ tsp. vanilla (optional)
Combine all ingredients and whisk well. Refrigerate until served.

Gov. Mike Beebe has ordered Arkansas flags to be flown at half-staff on Saturday in honor of a state deputy who was killed while driving a hitchhiker to a homeless shelter on Monday.
Lafayette County Chief Deputy Pete Richardson was taking 30-year-old Michael Lee Ackart to Texarkana when Ackhart grabbed the steering wheel of the vehicle, causing the deadly crash.
The Arkansas Democrat-Gazette reports that Ackart, of Tulsa, Okla., has been charged with second-degree murder.
Beebe says Richardson exemplified the finest traits of Arkansas's law-enforcement community: loyalty, bravery and selfless devotion to duty.

Thanks FRiend - I had the audio. I was trying to help them find a transcript.
Great job!
Barack Obama is a muslim traitor. He is a double agent.
The attack on the embassy was intentionally allowed.
Obama is lying, Hillary is lying, people are helping them cover it up, and so is the media.
This situation is extremely serious.
Our government is rogue, and any congressman and senator not investigating and prosecuting the Hell out of this is implicating himself in this matter.
Kevin is usually very astute!
And Valerie Jarret!
This whole thing has the smell of inside Muslim Brotherhood moles. .....and our own President is suspect.
Somehow the terrorists knew where the safe house was.......immediately.
They knew that weapons were being either bought back or transferred to other operatives to send to Syria. Don't forget that Panetta also said the US has lost track of Syria's chemical wMDS as well as rocket launchers and millions of other weapons from Libya.
Perhaps Stevens found out that Saddam's WMDS were transferred to Syria and high profile democrat senators and moles facilitated the transfer with Russia. I remember Pelosi and Kerry going to Syria around that time. I remember that the no WMD meme was shifting into high gear and beginning to be a favorite talking point of the leftists shortly after several leftist politicians had gone to Syria. Someone is protecting a very dark secret.
Just throwing it out there and re- adjusting my tin foil hat.
This interview is devastating!
Wow this is it great work.
NO way out of this for the regime. Sooner or later they will make up something about why Steven was actually there.
They knew that trouble was imminent there too, according to this man who was right in the middle of it in Egypt on 9/11. Listen to his story -he was a regular caller to this particular talk show, and the host definitely trusts what he's been told.
The set-up take.
I have been advocating this for about a week. Its hard to document 100% but if it looks like a duck....
If you have an ambassador who was intimately involved in getting weapons for supposed freedom fighters in Libya to take out Ghakdaffi and then he is asked to get the weapons back(possibly the three who died with Stevens were CIA and they were tasked with getting the weapons back) by state dept. or the obama regime fearing they are in the wrong hands and it would effect the election if the story gets out, you would think he would be protected all the way! Where the hell was CIA? Unless things are so far out of wack Stevens becomes a liability.
When Stevens asked for increased security for fear his life in in danger his security is removed and additional requests are not only ignored but they are told not to even ask anymore! The handwriting is pretty much on the wall.
Steven was assassinated. It was a hit.
Its pretty common knowledge the local embassy security staff" (the excuse by the regime for not getting security to Stevens true BS here)made up of local shop keepers and who knows whom else, were probably infiltrated with at least a few local terror types who probably spilled the beans to the al queda affiliates/friend or whom ever they were.They had the big time weapons and the rest is history.
Did dc/CIA let al queada do their dirty work for them had Stevens become too big a liability? Its all so murky its hard to guess. Meanwhile dc let it all happen,even watched it happen.
Same here. I've asked everyone I know to spread the word.
Third Person
The more I see that picture, the more it looks like almost all of it is photoshopped.
Just a thought. Since we know they knew what was happening. ANd since we know they did NOT react to the action, is it possible that they were waiting to receive orders from some one to "respond" Someone, like say the CiC,????
Libya is probably still the kind of place where you can buy most anything you want. they were going to buy weapons back for 40 million.
This had to be a hit. Its' Just a question of whether State, or CIA participated or was it all the regime?
It's as if The Won had a hypnotic effect on many otherwise intelligent and accomplished individuals. Like de debbil.
Hard to tell.
Problem is when you are watching an event happen live,like the assassination of an ambassador, and you do nothing,instead depend on the media to cover up something like that?That's one hell of a stretch.My guess is Jarrett never wants to take any chances on anything often leading to indecision.
VJ running opposition again, holding up any decision from the CiC??
Hmm ... That would suggest the WH tied HRC's hands before throwing her under the bus?!
I have been saying that it's the administration's Middle Eastern version of Fast & Furious except much worse.
The regime continues to do nothing after letting the terror types ravage/kill Stevens. When its all over its the State department/Hillary's fault for doing nothing.
Bubba has to keep campaigning or they throw Hillary under the bus and kiss 2016 goodbye.
Really good.
Ping for later read .................................................... FRegards
hoosiermama planted the seed. :)
A new book by investigative reporter Richard Miniter alleges that President Obama canceled the raid on Osama bin Laden's compound three times before finally giving the go ahead for the mission.
Each time, the president canceled on the advice of his trusted aide Valerie Jarrett.
Possibly, the planned deal was between Stevens and a supposedly
'friendly' faction. Unfortunately, that faction could easily have been
infiltrated by AQ. AQ ambushed the Ambassador and possibly stole
valuable intelligence data from the compound.
Wow that many shoulder fired missiles in the wrong hands!!US planes filed with passengers falling from the sky like the one in NYC, on a regular basis. Now that's something even the regime would worry about!
I don't believe for a minute that Stevens had some ' personal business' in Benghazi. My guess is that he was the money man for some kind of drop.
Manipulator.....BO and company are manipulators. If you've ever dealt with one, they know precisely which lie to tell which person to get the action/reaction they desire.
THey are masters at making situation appear like they radiate from another...and hiding the fact that it orginates with them.
Very common in disfunctional families and the Dunham's were certainly that.
VJ is his useful idiot/dummy.
I noted suggestions like that a week or so ago. Sure is looking possible that could be in the running.
"AQ ambushed the Ambassador and possibly stole
valuable intelligence data from the compound."
And the safe,
cash on hand,
and British weapons ...
wiping out the Benghazi intelligence base and
canceling any deal Stevens had brokered for the recovery of US weapons now in the hands of terrorists.

"Someone, like say the CiC,"
From what I concluded from the Hunt interview, military orders required a sign-off by the CiC. Hunt said, IIRC, the "WH."
Holy SHite Maggie, send that link to FOX. ASAP.
May God keep watch.
Ambassador Christopher Stevens As I Knew Him A Personal Reflection by Mana Rabiee
SOURCE: Middle East Voices
Hey Hunt voted for this dipstick. He got what he asked for and if the guy had any shame he'd be in a monastery somewhere doing penance.
...and Stevens itinerary and other sensitive data was strewn all over the floor of the consulate, almost as a calling card.
Fourteen other current and former military officials have been assassinated in Benghazi so far this year and there have been other attempted assassinations. It has led local residents to claim there is a hit list, drawn up by an alleged undercover Islamist organisation.
There is no question you are right Pen. He undoubtedly was the money man. But who knows what else was going on in the background. We know he was involved in helping set up a hospital in coordination with others in Boston, in the Benghazi area. He had a lot going on in the country this guy Stevens really loved the people and the country. He was a real patriot as well,IMHO.
Have you noticed how quiet VJ and Donilon have been? They've sent Brennan to Tripoli to clean things up, I suppose ... seems to be his expertise.
I've been wondering about that too. Should be bodies stacked up after 6 hours.
Exactly, in addition they are diversionary masters.I have always wondered if as hot a topic as Benghazi is if it was not the perfect diversion as well.
Say for getting well, 181 million in campaign contributions in their coffers in the month of Sept. for example.....
Who knows what else is going on that we don't even know about.
I think you just hit on it.
Wow hot stuff here!! Mcinerny says "its all politicial, all politics" by the regime.
I honestly don't know what these clowns are going to do next!! At this point it seems to be all COA.
The best info seems to be that after the ordeal, Stevens (body?) was transported to a hospital in Benghazi, where attempts were made for 45 minutes to revive him. If he had been sodomized as was reported, personnel there would know such facts. Similarly, the military that received his body in Dover would know, unless BHO took extraordinary measures to put a lid on that info.
I believe the Libyans—including their current president—have been pretty clear that Stevens had been sodomized.
With the newspaper ad that appeared in local newspaper(s?), giving preferential treatment to same-sex couples that might be hired on as bodyguards at $18k/year, the Libyans would have clearly been "in on" the quiet secret that at least some US muckety-muck was gay. Such suspicions would've been heightened around the "single" ambassador. Libyan security would've been privvy to the truth of that. This info may have contributed to such bodily abuse that has been rumored, but unverified publicly.
Just listened to the Hunt interview.
Everyone here needs to email your Senator and Representative and ask them to get answers from the Obama administration.
We had live intelligence for 6 hours; and these people were left to die. Utter betrayal of Americans by this administration. Biden flat out lied in the debate.
Impeach them both.

Better living through nature
by Susan Melgren, Web Editor
natural health, health, women's health, PMS, pre menstrual syndrome, cramps, bloating, fatigue, mood swings, fruit, vegetables, fiber, soy, phytoestrogen, leafy greens, fatty acids, vitamin B6
Just as eating the wrong kinds of foods can worsen symptoms of premenstrual syndrome (PMS), eating the right kinds of food can prevent them. Eating a proper diet will enable your liver to metabolize estrogen better and supply nutrients that can ease cramps, bloating, fatigue and mood swings. Make that week before your period more tolerable by incorporating these five foods into your diet throughout the month.
Prevent PMS symptoms—and put a smile on your face—by eating these five foods! Photo By Grazie Davvero/Courtesy Flickr.
1. Fruits, Vegetables and High-Fiber Foods
Eating a diet high in fiber can deter PMS symptoms in several ways. First, fiber can balance your blood sugar, which will help control mood swings and fatigue. Second, fiber takes stress off your liver, which plays an important role in metabolizing hormones, including estrogen. If the liver becomes stressed or overworked, it will fail to properly process estrogen, leading to excess estrogen in the body. Third, fiber can carry excess estrogen out of the body. After estrogen leaves the liver, it goes into the digestive track where fiber absorbs the estrogen like a sponge and removes it from the body. Without fiber in the digestive track, the body can reabsorb the excess estrogen.
2. Soy products
Soy contains phytoestrogens, hormone-balancing nutrients derived from plants. Sometimes called dietary estrogen, phytoestrogens act in two ways. At low doses, they mimic estrogen. At higher doses, they attach to estrogen and block its effects on the body, including creating the symptoms associated with PMS. Soy products include tofu, miso, tempeh and "dairy" products such as soy milk and soy yogurt.
3. Leafy green vegetables
Not only do leafy greens contain fiber, they're also high in calcium and magnesium, two minerals that have been shown to improve PMS symptoms. Try to get at least two servings a day.
Soy products such as edamame, miso and tofu contain phytoestrogens, hormone-balancing nutrients derived from plants. Photo By Sharyn Morrow/Courtesy Flickr.
4. Essential fatty acids
Essential fatty acids help produce prostaglandins, which regulate hormones, reduce inflammation and control the constriction and dilation of smooth muscles. Getting a balance of all the essential fatty acids can reduce PMS symptoms such as breast tenderness, mood swings and cramps.
5. Vitamin B6
Vitamin B6 not only reduces pain, it can also alleviate some symptoms of PMS by helping the liver remove excess estrogen. This vitamin has also been shown to help reduce depression and irritability. B vitamins can be found in whole grains, beans, bananas and nuts.

Photo of the Week: Guatemalan Juice Business Bears Fruit
January 10, 2014
TechnoServe helped Mónica Jacinto and the other women behind Kask'i increase their sales and create a better future for their families.
Mónica Jacinto once struggled to support herself and her four children. After her husband left, she sometimes went without food so that her children could eat. Determined to become financially independent, she joined an association of women from Guatemala's San Lucas Tolimán region. Together they started producing fruit juices using a simple blender and formed the business Kask'i.
TechnoServe helped the women of Kask'i improve their business and marketing skills, acquire better equipment and reach new markets. After working with TechnoServe, the business increased its production and began selling their product for a better price. The added income has helped Mónica provide her children with better food, clothes and an education without borrowing money or sacrificing her own well-being.
Learn more about our work with Kask'i.

If you could do anything to the iPhone 4 to improve it what would it be?
Be creative :)
9/23/2010 (8:49 pm) by Hbrofman
just a few off the top of my head
a) more powerful battery
b) allow jailbroken apps auto3g, sbschedule into the app store. power is such a major program on this device, it must be addressed and both of these apps make a major improvement with power management.
c) something has to be done with the antenna - even after a case, i still have worse reception on long island than i did with my 3gs.
d) add flash - i can use it on my htc Incredible and it makes life much better, it is not just about video, there are sites that have flash menus and the iPhone and iPad both 'get stuck' on these since they don't really work but you don't know why without digging in; users should not have to dig in. this has become far too frustrating an issue.
e) wireless sync - sometimes you just don't have time to go downstairs and sync to iTunes. since apple's shared library implementation is weak at best, in our house we have all iPods(4)/iPhones(4)/iPads(1) syncing on the same pc where the iTunes library is maintained. this is a painful manual endeavor.

I am Turkish and English is my second language.
Here is a memory:
Many years ago I had a girlfriend who was English. One night we drank too much and started quarelling. Despite my very good technical and official English as a second language, I was astonished how little I knew to be able
to quarrel with a drunk woman.
P.S. Because I could not utter any prickly words, the "dispute monologue" did not last long and we were OK again.

#1 Consumer Suggestion
Never give out your credit card/debit/atm/checking numbers. Why risk it? Just pay with cash, in person.
AUTHOR: Paul - (U.S.A.)
SUBMITTED: Friday, September 10, 2004POSTED: Friday, September 10, 2004
Second, giving out your credit card number. Big mistake. Especially to a web business.
There are still honest people. You won't find them on a web site, selling fake diet aids. Yes, some people can still be trusted. But, it seems like they are getting to be fewer and harder to find every day.
They get away with this because nobody is in a position to stop them. There is only one way to stop this kind of thing. Never buy anything with a credit card, a debit card, or a check. Never! Always pay cash. Buy the item in person. See what you are getting before you hand over your money. Don't trust the world. Look at all the trouble it cost you.
Your local drug store has diet patches. Of course, you won't lose any weight by using them. But, at least you could see what you are getting for the money. And, they could only take what you are willing to pay them. Whenever you hand over a number, the company could empty your account if they wanted to. They could copy a check and forge a much higher amount. They could debit your account over and over until it is empty. Don't use these things. Use plain old cash. Go to the store. Pay in person. See what you're getting. Save your receipt to return it if you are not satisfied.
I'll bet you never make this mistake again. On the plus side, you may actually lose a pound or two because of all the stress from this nonsense. Read all the reports others sent in about how they were cleaned out when they gave out their numbers. You're not alone. Once enough people stop trusting these debit/credit/checking/atm numbers, they will stop using them. Once that happens, the fraud web sites will dry up and disappear. That's the only way to stop this kind of fraud. Good luck trying to get your money back!
Are you an owner, employee or ex-employee with either negative or positive information about the company or individual, or can you provide "insider information" on this company?

Arizona Diamondbacks
Rumor: Diamondbacks talking Bauer for Cabrera swap
The Arizona Diamondbacks may be moving a big-name player, but it's not the one everyone thinks.
Pitcher Trevor Bauer, who struggled in a brief appearance with the team last summer, is rumored to be a subject in talks that would net the the team Indians shortstop Asdrubal Cabrera. As reported by MLB.com:
If the trade comes to fruition, it would fulfill an obvious need for each side. In a thin free-agent shortstop market, Cabrera, a two-time All-Star, is an attractive trade option. And for an Indians club potentially in a rebuild-type situation, a young pitcher with upside like Bauer would fit the framework.
Cabrera, 27, hit .270 with 16 home runs and 68 RBI for the Indians last season, but had a career-year in 2011 when he tallied 25 home runs and 92 RBI. He would be an upgrade at shortstop for a team looking for just that, though he would not be coming cheap.
Because while Bauer had his share of issues in four Major League starts, the 21-year-old still projects to be a very good pitcher. He was Arizona's Minor League Pitcher of the Year in 2012 after posting a 12-2 mark with a 2.42 ERA over stops in Double-A and Triple-A. He struck out 157 batters over 130.1 innings.
