Posted on 02/07/2013 4:17:40 PM PST by raptor22
Unlike the Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt, which faces no existential threat, our Asian ally faces an increasingly belligerent and well-armed China. Yet only one gets the latest weaponry and the question is why.
On Jan. 30, a Japan Maritime Self-Defense Force destroyer in the East China Sea near the disputed Senkaku Islands just north of Taiwan was "painted" by fire control-radar from two People's Liberation Army warships, believed to be the Chinese frigates Linyungang and Wenzhou.
This was just the latest provocation by a China flexing its deep water naval muscle as it asserts itself in the East and South China Seas and pursues long-held territorial ambitions. One of those ambitions is the absorption into the People's Republic of its alleged long-lost province of Taiwan.
China continues to add missiles targeted on Taiwan, adds naval capability including an aircraft carrier, expands its amphibious capabilities, as well as developing its own stealth fighter said to be roughly equivalent to our now-canceled F-22 Raptor.
In this context, Taiwan has sought to improve its defenses with the acquisition of 66 F-16C and F-16F fighter aircraft, also known as Block 52 planes.
These are not stripped down versions that are sometimes sold overseas, but state-of-the-art aircraft with the latest bells and whistles, one of the most capable fighter aircraft in the world.
While Taiwan languishes in military limbo, Egypt, under the thumb of the Muslim Brotherhood's Mohammed Morsi, has received the first of 20 such aircraft scheduled for delivery in 2013, 16 single-seat F-16Cs and four double-seat F-16Ds.

Taiwan is an ally, so they are out of luck
200 M1 tanks to Egypt too, crazy
That is because Taiwan is an ally and Egypt is not. See?
obama is a effing traitor closet muslim.
it's one thing to piss on Israel and sell/give to Egypt but the Clown In Chief would not dare to antagonize the Bank of China by allowing the Taiwanese to upgrade their arms.
God will not remain silent on this.
Makes sense when you think about it, everything is upside down in Obama's Looking Glass..
I'm late to the thread and several people already made my point. Taiwan is an American ally - why would Obama sell to them?
Panetta dimed him out for not being anywhere in sight or sound during Benghazi, after telling the world that he was in the situation room the whole time.
He does what he wants, when he wants, and there's not a thing anyone can or will do about it. The House has the power to stop a good number of things but they choose not to.
And if anyone, with a shred of intelligence, thinks that they will allow the Republicans to get control of the Senate next year, I got a bridge in Brooklyn to sell you. No way they'd ever let that happen.
There will be voter fraud of epic proportion just so he can maintain the impeachment proof congress he has now.
Even if by some miracle the GOP took the Senate back, they would never impeach. The GOP is more afraid of the New York Times than they are of their constituents. True story..
Why bother. He's guilty of treason but cannot be convicted. If the democrats wouldn't convict Bill Clinton because they weren't sure what the meaning of "is" is, you can bet they have no idea what the meaning of "treason" is either. Our best strategy is to minimize the damage from the drug-addled traitor in our White House, not to waste time on an effort that is doomed to failure. [I wish I were wrong, but no such luck.]
He is as much a closet muslim as he is a closet homo.
He's only in the closet for those who are blind (and that ain't you and me).
For those who pay attention...he is a muslim fag parading around for all to see...and proud of it.
ha ha ha ... you are so right...
But, I think if guys like Gohmert, Cruz and Gowdy had any pull, sh*t would start happening quick. Too bad we're stuck with McConnell and Boner
So long as there are 34 'Rats in the Senate, Congress is "impeachment-proof".
But the Muslim Brotherhood is Obama's ally, not Taiwan.
Remember the whole Hughes Aircraft/Loral Space debacle during the Clinton admin? They took export control of dual use tech from the DOD and gave it to Ron Brown's ( remember him? ) Commerce Department. The move allowed China to aquire sensitive technology, who paid X42 back with illegal campaign contributions. It took a few years to unravel because Bill Lewinsky at least tried to hide his treason. The current occupant just plain doesn't care how HIS treason looks. His disdain and disgust with America tells me the birthers are probably spot on..
It's always the muslim or communist side, for green on green or red on red conflicts it's always the more hard-core side.
If there are no muslim or communist interests, he votes present.
If as I suspect, he travelled to Pakistan so he could slip across the border and wage jihad on the Russians in Afghanistan as so many young devout muslins were doing during that time-frame, he'll side with islam should there be a red on green conflict.
Treason is defined in the Constitution.
Unfortunately only a citizen can be guilty of treason.
Maybe the truth can be found in Obama's choices - he's telling us - with his actions - the Muslim Brotherhood is an ally - and Taiwan isn't... That message is also being sent to China and to Israel.
Maybe President You Didn't Build That doesn't care for chicken fried rice.
Whoever wrote the lead for the IBD article doesn't understand the complexity of the Middle East. Funding for the Muslim Brotherhood comes from the Sunni/Wahhabi Saudi Family, the same general source that provided support for Barry, beginning at least with his entry to Occidental. With its nuclear capability, Shia Iran is about as existential a threat to the Saudis as was Saddam Hussein, who thought he had a green light to consume Saudi Arabia after moving unopposed into Kuwait. Until Jimmy Carter, Iran was moving away from Islamic Fundamentalism, and imams were no longer controlling fiefdoms, levying taxes, imposing their Koranic rules. Persian women went to school, and graduate school, returning to Iran from top schools around the world because Iran had apparently escaped the shackels of despotic fundamentalism. Iran's citizens are generally not Arab. With Carter's help, and help from the USSR, Iran changed into "An Islamic Republic", with its leaders violently disposed to conquer Sunni Islam which support comes principally from Saudi Arabia, the Muslim Brotherhood's, and Barack Obama's patron.
The source for Obama's Saudi patronage, understandably buried by state-run media, is the attorney who defended Malcolm X, Louis Farrakhan (demonstrating his nonalignment, since Farrakhan doesn't hide his approval, if not his involvement, with Malcolm X' murder), The Mulim Brotherhood, Charles Rangel, an Army Air Corp vet, Manhattan Borough President, Percy Sutton. Sutton, a careful speaker, described Obama's patron as Alwaleed bin-Talal, so described by bin-Talal's legal representative, and Sutton's old friend, Khalid al-Mansour nee. Don Warden.
Warden/al-Mansour is a Boalt Hall graduate, Black Panther founder, and virulent black nationalist, who became a Wahabbi Muslim in the late 60s. Mansour first partnered with bin-Talal in a law firm using their names on the masthead in the early 70s. He has been a counsel for the Royal Family for almost forty years. Bin-Talal bestowed twenty million dollars upon Harvard in 1987, when Obama entered Harvard Law, possibly the result of the help in getting Obama into Harvard Sutton provided. Bin-Talal is the largest stock holder in News Corp - Fox News, Wall Street Journal - after Murdoch, and a major stockholder in Citibank, GE, Apple, Siemens, AIG, etc. etc. How much control Obama's patrons exercise is anyone's guess, but the plans probably began long before Occidental, when al-Mansour admitted first meeting Barry.
A 1979 interview with al-Mansour by Vernon Jarrett, Valerie's communist father-in-law, approvingly described al-Mansour's plan to inject Saudi money, beginning with twenty million dollars, into US minority education for blacks and Hispanics. Al-Mansour was a principal organizer of funding for and creation of Wahabbi Madrassas in North Africa and the US. Jarrett, a friend and associate of Frank Marshall Davis for two decades before Davis escaped the heat to Hawaii in the late 40s, certainly knew Don Warden/al-Mansour. Jarrett certainly remained close to Frank, who became Barry's "surrogate" father (yes, some believe he was his father), in the late 60s.
The bottom line is that Barry was financially supported by by Saudi money, at least since Occidental. Percy Sutton asked about Barry's financial needs, and his friend "Dr. Whalid al-Mansour", explained that his patron "was one of the world's wealthiest men." Sutton was, of course, dismissed as senile. Listen to the Youtube interview. He was slow, but very careful. If you've listened to al-Mansour you'll hear some similarities (al-Mansour still has many Youtube lectures, though the interview in which he described meeting Barack at Occidental has been scrubbed). They are both very bright men, both from the South, and both soft-spoken and compelling speakers.
Percy probably didn't, in 1985, know of the plans to promote Barry/Barack as a politician, and Barack's handlers probably didn't dare ask Percy to lie. Mansour said in a recent local broadcast discussion, that he would not make the mistake of saying anything about Obama and their relationship. Sutton seems like an honest man, and anything but senile. Obots claimed a family attorney pronounced "the 88 year old Sutton" incompetent. Sutton's family said publicly that they had never heard of the attorney, that he didn't even have Percy's age right - he was 86 - and that Percy died with a keen mind.
Obama's decisions make perfect sense in the context of his patron's, the Saudi Royal Family. Keeping us dependent upon energy supplied by the Saudis helps secure their security. It doesn't matter whether or not Barry is a Muslim. It does matter who controls his decisions. Every replacement of a Middle Eastern dictator with the Muslim Brotherhood is a success. Assad, Mubarak, Qaddafi, Hussein, all resisted Muslim Brotherhood domination. Obama has been arming the Brotherhood through the "mission" (there was never a "consulate" or embassy in Benghazi - it was an arms depot for the Muslim Brotherhood). Both Hegel and Brennan worked for, or were paid by the Saudis to whom they consulted. Hillary's closest aide, Huma Abedin, worked for the Saudis (a Muslim charity group) and her parents were both senior Muslim Brotherhood employees. Every Obama decision should be viewed in the context of to whom he owes his position.
The reality, Red China is a biggest foreign ally for US democrats since 1970s. F-16 for Taiwan simply doesn't fit into it.

LA oil company faces criminal charges for spill
LOS ANGELES Los Angeles city prosecutors have filed criminal charges against an oil company for a 245-gallon crude oil and water spill last December.
The city attorney's office said Friday that Brea Canon Oil Co. violated state regulations and unlawfully discharged crude oil and contaminated water into a flood channel.
Prosecutors said an underground pipeline began to leak beneath a parking lot and moved through two storm drains before reaching the flood channel, which is home to several species of birds. The spill had minimal damage to the environment.
The company has a history of pipeline spill violations dating back to 2005.
An afterhours phone message left for Brea Canon Oil was not immediately returned.

The dealership wanted to charge us for 27 hours of labor to fix everything under the sun. Even worse while my husband was there is Lubbock he observed the "certified" mechanic using faxes and manuals and trying to work step by step to fix one thing after another. Finally I started a fire and called Daimler Trucks North America (DTNA) who make Freightliner trucks to let them know this place is giving them a bad name. Then I called Freightliner helpline and complained as well as Caterpillar to see if they really had a tech go out. This caused Freightliner and Caterpillar to call Lubbock Truck Sales to find out what was going on.
The manager did not want the bad press and told my husband to call a tow truck and get his truck out of there. He did give us our money back, however; after a week of lost revenue we towed the truck to Rush Peterbuilt and the truck was fixed in 3 hours. It was the ECM but the "certified" mechanic corrupted the new ECM and that is why it didn't work. Now we have to have Caterpillar check the valve covers and injectors checked as well as the electrical because of Lubbock Truck Sales award winning mechanics.....NOT. Any way this was a costly, but valuable lesson. Call the Caterpillar hotline before you call the wrecker!!!

Email: firstname.lastname@example.com
I have reviewed the customers repair order when it was in our shop back in 2012 & would like to add some details that the customer left our in their complaint. The customers truck is a 2004 model. The truck was towed in by another towing company & arrived either late Friday afternoon (03/02/2012) or early Saturday morning (03/03/2012). We are open from 8-noon on Saturdays. We put this truck in the shop first thing Saturday morning & the tech worked on it until closing time. The tech resumed work on the following Monday morning right at 8:00am. The last time that our tech was working on this unit was Wednesday (03/07/12) at 3:00pm.
When the tech began troubleshooting, he found that there were active codes for all 6 injectors. It is extremely rare that all 6 injectors fail at the same time without any other failures causing the injectors to fail. When all 6 injectors code like this truck did, it is most commonly due to a failed ECM. The tech replaced the ECM & programmed the new ECM. After the ECM was replaced, the engine was turn over but still would not start. The tech performed an injector solenoid circuit test, ohmed all wiring & the wiring showed to be shorted to ground. The tech removed the new ECM & reinstalled the customers original ECM because it did not fix the problem. The tech then replaced the engine sensor harness with a new one. After installed, the ECM was still coding all 6 injectors. The tech removed the valve cover & tested the injector harness to make sure that this harness was not shorted/open. The harness tested good. The tech connected a 'remote' injector (not installed in engine) & the engine was still coding all 6 injectors. The tech removed the new engine harness because it did not fix the problem & reinstalled the customers original engine harness. The tech reconnected the new ECM, cleared it completely & reprogrammed it properly. The engine started & ran good with no injector codes. So the tech removed & replaced the customers original ECM with the new ECM. The truck was test drove & all appeared to be ok. When the customer arrived to pick the unit up, the engine did not start & we tried to pull the truck back into the shop for additional assessment. However, the customer became angry that the truck was not fixed & demanded that the truck be released to him so that he could take it to another shop. We reinstalled the customers original ECM & released the truck to the customer at no charge. We did not charge the customer for any diagnostic time that we had involved or the new belt that we installed!!! The customer did take it to another shop & they too replaced the ECM which fixed the problem. We found that the ECM we installed was defective from stock. This is not common but it does happen. We filed a parts warranty claim for the new ECM that we tried to install because it was defective from stock.
Ultimately this customer was upset because we did not fix their truck & I will be honest, if it were myself in their shoes, I would have been a little upset too. However, the customer indicates that it was the tech's fault that the truck was not fixed & it was not the tech's fault. The truck was not repaired in our shop because we had a defective part from stock. This is not a common problem but it does occur from time to time.
At the end of the day, we did what was right & did not charge the customer for any repairs/diagnostics that we performed. We regret that this happened & we have used this incident as a learning tool.
Please feel free to contact me with any questions or comments you may have!!

Toddy's Loan Move
Im mystified and angry re Todorov's loan move to Wigan.
Assuming the club wasnt going to collapse under the weight of his contract, where is the logic in sending a player on loan, who has scored twice in three matches, provides a bit of trickery to his play, and has not at least publicly, thrown a wobbly about staring on the bench.
Why does 'Arry talk about squad size, (or lack of it) when he's only too keen to ship someone out like Toddy, to a club who will be a major rival to Pompey this season?
I just cant see this at allSort: Newest | Oldest | Most Replied Expand all replies
So has this move anything to do with content of report in Mail on Sunday.Have the fans been told everything are they playing games again at board level? Why was it so hard to sign people and why do we have so many frees again.Nothing changes. Is there money ? Show us don't just talk a good talk.
- 1 Reply to Carole
PFC have never said there was money available only the press have said this.
You can see from the players they have brought in their wages will make up more then enough in transfer fees. Campbell at approx £50k a week is equivelent to over £5m in 2-years, plus Johnson for a season, James, Kanu and Cole - means a lot of money is being spent.
You can see what Harry is doing, buying / loaning seasoned professionals who know about the premiership and can do a job now. This will get us where we need to be in the short term (a mid-table premiership side).
For the next step he is relying on young talented players with a future - fernandes, kranjcar, mendes, douala, davis & o'neil + more to follow.
Unfortunaltly Todorov has not been a prolific goal scorer in this division; his two goals have been a bonus this season but last season we saw him struggle to find the net regularly under perin and redknapp; it was our midfield that saved us.
Redknapp is looking at offloading him at Xmas when he hopes his value would have been increased whilst out on loan at wigan. If we continue well then players will be attracted to us during the next transfer window and a young talented striker or two will be signed. For sure!

Amen to that!
- 1 Reply to Joseph Jude
I can't believe it myself, Toddy is showing the form that got us here in the first place. How long will Cole and Kanu last? I can't see Kanu scoring in every game. I hope that Toddy comes back at Christmas and helps us into Europe. Toddy deserves that, he had awful injury problems but stuck with it. Harry was moaning about being 'wafer thin' last week, what does he do? ships out one of our main men. Madness, but who knows as one of the earlier writers said, Harry is a genious and he obviously knows what he's up to, Cheers D
Totally agree - I rate Toddy as possibly our best striker, would rather have sent Lua Lua. Injuries aside, he has class, and I felt was about to demonstrate his talents for us in the premiership, now torn as to whether I want to see him score on the 9th. Toddy Toddy Toddy (only one ok?)

i think harry has made a big mistake the trouble in football is your face as got to be liked and toddy face is not liked by harry as in all sport some people act very childish cole will kast a few games if that he his here for the money only at the end of his career toddy is younger also so are we going for the old players again ? they should blend with youth not all be over 30 toddy is a goal scorer and wigan see that in him like a certain player who left to go to wigan last season
Surely won't there be a clause in the deal saying he can't play against us because when lua lua was on loan Newcastle forgot about that and he scored for us against them???
Got to admitt though wierd that he is on loan till December but Harry proberly has a reason he is a genius afterall 20 points form 30 says it all!
I agree - Andy Cole probably won't last the whole season and then we will be complaining about a lack of strikers.

Still early days. We'll have to see what happens.
Agree completely , we may be be up against Wigan for vital points at the end of the season .....there was talk of Toddy going to Brum ...that would have been better although I'd have liked to see him stay at Fratton !
Might come back to haunt us this loan !

Bachmann and Romney
'certain number of cranks who won't get a shot....'
Well, meet this stupid crank.
And my extended family who has not vaccinated for years. This is nothing new with us. It goes back to the 1970's.
But we take responsibiity/measures for keeping healthy.
You maybe have not heard a reasonable discussion from the 'other side' of any vaccine issue.
Consider how fluoridating water now has had a bad report - thank God. We'd been yelling about it for years. Thought we were heading for possibly having other 'medicines' dropped in the water - hey, why not?? Even as states mandate that public drinking water must safe for all, fluoridating it, is NOT. And not just for those who already had certain diseases, but 'they' are now admitting it causes teeth to brown, etc!
Neither are vaccines safe for all.
We don't care to have ANY of that junk put directly into our system.
Advancing sanitation, hygiene, and good nutrition (boosting the immune system), had a huge effect in eradicating diseases.
But are they truly erradicated? Diseases may have cycles, sort of like globull warming, and cooling - - -
When one is poked directly in the closed bloodstream with all kinds of junk in the vaccine, no telling what the body may do with that trauma. Well, we know what has happened to some. Some pets have not fared well, either.
And while they were/are looking at an autism/vaccine connection, other negative results were ignored.
Thimerisol is/was not the only awful additive. Some doctors continued using the vaccine with thimersol if he/she had quantities in their cupboard.
Also, there's been times when vaccines have not been tested thoroughly - for safety and effectiveness.
It's been said that while we're 'tricking' the immune system with vaccines - well, the immune system may 'trick' back, and not for the better.
We feel really bad for those areas that may not have an opt-out for ANY vaccine - actually hope that doesn't exist.
I recently saw an ad for a 'health' agency that was advertising you could go to them for the whooping cough vaccine booster. Their ad in the local paper screamed 'NO SHOT NO SCHOOL.' And it mentioned an elementary school. I called that school and asked if that was true. The receptionist said no, there is a form one can sign to opt out. She said some have - good.
How dam_ dishonest was that ad for all to read! Makes me boil.
Signed, An Informed Crank
Tx...all your verbage fails to mention the facts that Perry is quite well known for being a "pay to play" man. It's not a secret or something which has to be found out. It simply is. Therefore Bachmans statements referring to that end is not far fetched....
Further you have attempted to elevate Perry supporters as ONLY those who have "reasoning abilities"....that is carrying the liberal mantra of the elitist mindset.
Many Freepers, who do not support your candidate, are certainly more than capable of "reasoning"....you're apparently confused about those wo have elected to believe other "facts" then the ones Perry supporters present....and that's his history of "pay to play".
So yes, of course if the price is right Perry will be bought.....and he is not alone in doing so.
Sorry, chav, this thingy-dingy ain't goin' away soon.
Thanks,MG, I just didn't make the JD Hayworth connection. You being much more closer to the situation, make a good point.
McCain pulled his once-every-6-year-trick of running as a conservative and fooling Arizonians once again.
I felt that Sarah should not have helped Juan, as she owes him NOTHING after how he treated her both during and after the 2008 election.
I didn't know about JD personal situation—I'm here in DE and lamost witnessed the same thing about Christine O'Donnell. The long knives were out for her too, especially from the RINOs here. They have since been ousted from leadership here, and Christine has bounced back.
(1) Warts are not a leading cause of cancer. Not even close to be a major cause. The costs are not astronomical.
(2) Unlike Brit-sphere we chavs here do NOT have socialized medicine.
Well done, "conservatives".
We have a man in the White House intent on destroying the economy and here we are, once again, in the circular firing squad.
The liberals are LOVING this. They don't need to defend 9% unemployment, debt out of control, czars and everything else, all they need to do is point at "that" conservative, whoever she or he may be and say SEE? they're bad, they did something 10, 15, 20 years ago that proves they can't be president.
Why are we doing this? WHY?
Bristol Palin is just the sort of young girl Perry's EO was designed to protect. Sexually active as a young girl with a sleazy guy.
I've led the horse to the water if he decides to die of thirst then it is his fault.
Gardasil is not the equivalent of other childhood vaccinations.
"In the clinical studies alone, 23 girls died after receiving either Gardasil or the Aluminum control injection. 15 of the 13,686 girls who received Gardasil died, while 8 died among the 11,004 who received the Aluminum shot. There was only one death among the group that had a saline placebo. What this means is that 1 out of every 912 girls in the Gardasil clinical studies died. (9, see page 8.) The cervical cancer death rate is 1 out of every 40,000 women per year.10"
We weren[t as lucky here. $20 million buys you a lot of power and people that when you pay that much money the people you buy stay bought. She also helped him raise a lot of money. I thought she would make sure the conservative she took out would be taken care of, a job would be found, but nope. She did not lift a finger and she had to know what McCain did. Like I said, he didn't defeat him, he destroyed him.
Like I said, we can build a bridge connecting the Keys, we can build a bridge to connect two peninsulas in Michigan, we can build a dam to hold back millions of gallons of water... but we CAN'T build a fence in the middle of a river!?!?!!?
We have some of the best engineering minds in the world in the USA. I'm about what's possible, and know there's nothing Americans can't do if they set their mind to it.
So you stay in your world of can't. I want no part of anyone or anything that is tantamount to giving up.
It was a pretty telling revelation that Gov. Sarah Palin was also approached by Merck about gardasil and she said hell no.
We pay for Gardasil and it's equivalents here as a discretionary vaccine, not covered by either the NHS or private medical insurance, so a clear swing and miss on that score.
"Warts are not a leading cause of cancer" - I quote from your very own CDC, who might know a wee bit more about it than you or I:
50% of sexually active adults will be infected with HPV at some time in their lives,
Cervical cancer: The most common HPV-associated cancer. Almost all cervical cancer is caused by HPV. - from http://www.cdc.gov/hpv/cancer.html
If you don't want to get your child vaccinated, don't. I personally am going to call you a shitty parent/grandparent for that call, as anyone your children have sex with - and they are going to at some stage no matter how much you hate the thought - can be infected without knowing it.
You don't like the government telling you what to do. Fine, who does. Opt out, if it affects you. But stop blowing smoke and mirrors about a fairly easily preventable killer disease.
Not my business? Bullsh!t. Illegals are EVERYONE's business. You act like Texas is this perfect place. Well honey, it isn't. Texas is one of three states that's shown an increase in illegals. And if you read the fine print of that 'wonderful' in state tuition bill, you'd know that illegals 'may be eligible for state aid'- which is a fancy way of saying free stuff for illegals out of the pockets of tax-paying Texans. And when Perry wants to bring such a shining example of illegal immigration success to the White House?
You can damn well bet I'm going to fight against it with everything I've got.
It's still a states rights issue and none of your business. Clean up your own house before you go spitting on others.
I've been fighting illegals on the front lines a LOT longer then you have and have absolutely NO love for them, but Texans get to decide what they want to do, the Constitution grants them that power and if you spit on Texas for the 10th amendment you are part of the destruction of this country, not the solution.
But yet when Obama gaffe's big time (most recently in his propaganda state of the union speech about who was the republican founding father the media covers it up for him.It is all okay that he is a big lying idiot.
And BTW who were the idiots that cheered for the 30 year old dead guy in ICU with no health insurance in the audience? The witch DNC chair is already using it as a talking point that the tea party is whacked.
States Rights? What a load of crap! I thought it was the feds job to protect us from illegals? So which is it?
I will continue to spit on any state and any politician that puts illegals before American citizens. You don't like it? Tough.
"Those who pretend they support the Constitution and then try to say the 10th amendment doesn't matter are LIARS.f you don't support the Constitution then YOU belong in Mexico."
Well let's see now, Rick Perry was Ok with same sex marriage and Romney care before he was against them, ala 10th amendment. I find it amusing that you think it's ok for Texas to charge more for an Arizonan to attend a Texas college or university than an illegal alien who is breaking our laws. Sort of a warped mentality making that a 10th amendment issue. You probably agree with CA and IL gun control laws too because that's a 10th amendment issue.
Your governor has a better sense of the illegal issue than Rick does and she's just trying to enforce federal laws already on the books, not evade them. It's a sad state of affairs when Romney is better on the wetback issue than Perry is.
Oh heck! I didn't know there was a debate last night. I was out for the evening. Is there a link to a replay today
"..Then I hit your comment, and it just knocked me off-kilter.. instead of voicing thier dissapproval, they feel it necessary to make up some cute, infantile name for the candidate.."
I'm sorry, I should have called him Goodhair like I've done in numerous posts in the past. But next time focus on the substance of what I said regarding his performance on the gardasil issue. Also, if that knocked you off kilter, you either don't participate on here very often, or you are too invested in Rick Perry.
If you follow the threads, you may note that I've recently said Perry was my second choice after Palin. I'm having second thoughts about that after his performance last nite on several issues.
Surely, you have seen people taking shots at Palin. Wake up!
His admitting that he couldnt be bought for a measly $5k was maybe a mite too telling.
His response to Bachmann was meant to be that he was offended by her assertions that he was paid by Merck to try to help prevent HVP by vaccinating kids who were hopefully pre-sexually active. .....As an earlier poster here indicated, Alaska has also recommended the Guardasil.
That kiss was very strange.
Huntsman is a girly man. In this debate, he looked so much like the kid who worked hard on a snappy comeback and was dying to use it in class in front of the guys who never let him hang out with them.
Paul just seems crazier and crazier. And, no, his most rabid supporters don't have jobs, but they have fun getting stoned in mom's basement.
"OMFG"? Please think about what you typed there. Very offensive to the name of the Lord.
Actually, I thought Little Wolfie — Dang! He's as short as Bachman — did a pretty good job, considering his bias.
This was so much better than last week's debate. Not really 'gotcha' questions, IMO. Nice touch, too, with the National Anthem as an opener.
I guess that depends on what you place in the "f' and "g" spots, if I were speaking I would of said freaking gosh
Simple fact is, Texans decided they wanted this, if they decide they don't want it they'll reverse it.
You may have already been infected by a brain eating amoeba judging by the logic and bad-mouthing of that post. HPV causes warts, finger warts, nose warts, genital warts. HPV rarely causes cancer, nor does anything you posted say otherwise.
Almost all cervical cancer is associated with warts, yes, just as nearly of a few deadly skin cancers initiate at skin warts elsewhere on the body.
Of you get a wart does that mean you are dieing of cancer? NO! Because cancers rarely form from warts, most warts — caused by HPV — are benign.
Does it make you a "shitty" (your word) parent for NOT knowing that? Maybe.
Almost all cervical cancer is associated with warts, yes, just as a few deadly and rare skin cancers nearly always initiate at skin warts elsewhere on the body.
If you get a wart does that mean you are dieing of cancer? NO! Because cancers rarely form from warts, most warts caused by HPV are benign.
Stop the spinning.
The granting of in-state tuition is only given to the illegals that have attended at least three years of public schooling and graduated from high school. Those people, if eligible to enter a college or university by their grades, STILL have to pay their tuition.
Look the closest one to Ronmey is Perry. Sarah marches to her own drummer. If she does not run...I don't have a 2nd choice yet. I like Cain & Bachmann but they are both weak politically. I gave a hard time believing we can't find better conservatives who are not all talk no action.
It's been posted on here (repeatedly) that she won't make it past Iowa. At this rate she won't make it TO Iowa.
Her aides told him "we have no money to hire you". He said, "I will work for free."
The aid said, "in that case come on down!"
The rest as they say, is history.
He presided over the Fla Senate where he made his reputation as a super hard worker and consensus builder while maintaining conservative values.
His fight against Metro charlie Crist is legendary and almost Reaganesque. He knocked a sitting Governor out of the box and is now our proud Senator from Fla.
Being around the guy was awe inspiring for me. We(The Republican Executive Committee for the Keys) introduced him as the future President of the U.S. for his speech and it too was awesome.
That's just a little about Marco.
Gave me the creeps. ATD? His handlers should do something about that.
You analyzed the candidates' "looks".
Every person you listed is a declared candidate - except for Palin.
Why that inconsistency?
What Palin is, is a commentator for Fox News. Among many other things she is, of course...not limiting it to that.
Fox News has told her she can't be a candidate and work for them at the same time. Always she has given them the same answer...she is thinking about running but has not decided.
These "kids" are illegal aliens who should not be provided with any taxpayer money, federal or state. There are over 4 million intending immigrants waiting their turn to enter the US. They have gone through all of the paperwork, including background checks and medical examinations. Many are children. They want to be citizens only they did it the legal way.
Plyler vs Doe forced us to accept illegals in K-12. It is bankrupting many schools and diminishing the quality of education. Texas is almost at the bottom of school performance levels, primarily due to the influx of illegals, most of whom speak little English.
There is a strong movement in Texas to repeal in-state tuition. Any time it is placed on the ballot, it loses. MD just passed in-state tuition thru its heavily Dem dominated legislature. Even in this very blue state, a popular, grassroots movement has placed it on the ballot in 2012 despite fierce opposition from La Raza and the ACLU. I bet the people vote it down. And if it were placed on the ballot in Texas it would be voted down.
I disliked Perry's response last night when he talked about people not liking other people's last names as the reason for their opposition to in-state tuition. It was shameless pandering and slandering. Perry is generous with other people's money. He spent most of his polticial life as a Dem. He will support an amnesty if he gets into the WH because he is under the delusion that it will get the Hispanic vote.
The hell it is Charles.
I quoted the executive order issued by Perry.
Here it is: Executive Order RP65
Check parental rights. The language is exactly as I quoted.
Bachmann and Romney!
It SHOULDN'T go away soon. I believe this needs to be looked at and considered. Sarah Palin's accepting the federal mandate in Alaska by taking tax money for Gardisil needs to be looked and considered. All the other things that were not good decisions by any of these politicians need to be looked at and considered. Then we go on. And THEN... we can expect it all to come around again during the general election and in theme and variation from now until eternity. Why shouldn't we expect Rick Perry to get his vetting now on this? Surely you didn't think the world was going to rock because a major politician was getting scrutinized. Vetting happens every day in real politics. Get over the drama, and get a life.
4000 women succumb to cervical cancer in a year Charles. 70% of those are related to HPV meaning 2800 women in America die from HPV related cervical cancer. More kids die from drowning. I note that you would be put your kids in lifevests every time they enter the water. Your right as a parent to do so without having to opt out or in. Here's some unsolicited advice though, teach them to swim.
You might also lock them in the basement since skin cancer kills 3 times as many Americans as HPV related cervical cancer. The point is to save lives, right Charles?
Can you and I get one?
Let's try to unravel this point you made. Some of it is correct, some incorrect.
Yes, the border between Texas and Mexico is the Rio Grande River.
No, a fence is not built along the official border line...
It couldn't be, number one, and people do get that.
The common border is common to both countries...the line has Texas and Mexico interests up and down its entire length. Neither country would have the right to build a fence along the exact common border with the other.
This is true even if the line is not down the middle of a river.
A border fence is a barrier you put up for a defensive reason. Where you place it is the closest to the border you can but as far away as needed to build it where it makes sense for your purpose.
The fence for a certain number of miles in the San Diego area.
Other examples, I'm sure.
If you go there just watch Bachman.She seldom if ever glances at any of the other candidates when they speak.Does that mean anything?I don't know. It may be a stretch.
Chances are good if we can put men on the moon we can probably tackle a border fence. If nothing else we can just copy what the Israelis have done. That ended 99% of their suicide bombings.

With a D7000, you are limited to 3 jumps in exposure with bracketing. Some of the material I've read on HDR, says that depending on lighting of the subject, a proper HDR burst should consist of 5-7 EV variations.How is that configured on the camera when bracketing allows only 3?

The 5-7 brackets came about when cameras would not have close to the DR of the D7000. I seldom do HDR, which really is not needed most of the time with a D7000 or the D800, but when I do, I usually only take 3 frames. The D800 has a DR of 14.4 stops, and the D7000 is not far behind. If you are used to a D70 or D300, or any Canon, you might be favorably impressed with the extended DR of each frame. You should try 3 shots, it might not be needed to take more.StanSt Petersburg Russia

>The 5-7 brackets came about when cameras would not have close>to the DR of the D7000. I started using 3 frames on the D7000 on HDR, carefully choosing the upper and lower extremes (always shooting one frame at 0 compensation). I only do HDR for a different effect, and manually set each exposure, being careful not to move the tripod. Typically I shoot RAW: -3, 0, +3. Use View NX2 to convert to JPEG, then export to PhotoMatix, save as a 16 bit TIFF, do final processing in Capture NX2, then save as a NEF and JPEG.http://billkeane.zenfolio.com/p686788665/h47bc4ca2
#4. "RE: Setting up a Nikon D7000 for HDR" | In response to Reply # 3
Thanks, Stan. I was doing some reading about the subject now that I have a computer capable of running PP software. (Aperture w/ NIK plug-ins)These books discuss using 7 or 9 EV stops as increments. But they don't take in consider the Dynamic Range of the D7000. I had read in the past that the specs on my camera are exceptional with regard to DR. Now, I know. I've been locked in my room for 3 months due to knee replacement surgery. (boo-boo, )In this weeks of immobility, I bought a fabulous Gitzo tripod on eBay and a new Really Right Stuff bullhead. Waiting for the chance to get out in the sun and experiment with HDR shooting and processing. I should add, my home city lies on the 33° N Latitude meridian, so sunlight is fairly contrasty. We are on the same line as Madrid in Europe. And, like much of Southern California, the skies are essentially cloud-free and featureless for all but the winter months.
#5. "RE: Setting up a Nikon D7000 for HDR" | In response to Reply # 4
Knee replacement...ouch, that one takes a while to get mobility back. I had a hip replacement in 2008. I had it done here in Russia because my insurance in California denied coverage saying despite no symptoms or history of problems, the clerk that approves such things said it might have started 12 years before when I first got that insurance, after collecting $824/mo for those 12 years and never having to cover even one office visit. That is another story, but the operation was a great success, forgot about it until your case reminded me. Saved $83,000 by having it done here and from the moment I got out of the recovery room to month later when I stopped using crutches, I never needed or asked for pain medication. The whole affair was actually pleasant, and I got great, attentive care in the 9 days I was in the hospital. If you are not a member, you should check out the forum for pre and post operation knee and hip replacement patients at www.bonesmart.org. Lots of good advice, and support by other patients and medical staff moderators.Good luck GaryStanSt Petersburg Russia

I'll check out that website. $800/month for insurance sounds nasty. This article came out in the New York Times about medical tourism to Europe. I've only a few friends who, like me, are cyclists and have had knee replacement. So I'll eagerly cruise around on the link you provided to hear more opinions. I thought I had a pretty good tolerance for pain. Until this. Percoset, Oxichodone, Vicodin. The stuff scares the heck out of me. And only this month, after 12 weeks, am I able to reduce the pills to perhaps once a week so I can get to sleep.Uncomfortable side effects and a nasty addiction history for all this stuff.

I also use Aperture and Nik's HDR Efex Pro 2. It works great with the D7000. I have bracketing set up at 1.7 increments - you could probably go higher if you wanted - it's easy enough to experiment with this and find a setting that works for you. Use raw images, and Aperture priority mode. I have my U2 set up for HDR - when I hold the Fn button it shoots all 3 shots.
#8. "RE: Setting up a Nikon D7000 for HDR" | In response to Reply # 7
You state you have the Fn button programmed for HDR. What I don't comprehend is this — where is the Ch or Cl mode memorized? In the U2 or Fn configuration? You know the shutter business for multiple shots.
#9. "RE: Setting up a Nikon D7000 for HDR" | In response to Reply # 8
Custom settings menu>f3>assign Fn button = BKT - that's all you need to do, it does the burst if you hold the Fn button while you press the shutter - no need to set the shooting mode knob. Set that, your mode (aperture priority), Bracketing on, RAW files only, and whatever else you want and save it to U2 (or U1) - that's how I have it set, so I don't have to mess with setting it up when I see something that might be good in HDR. I also have bracketing order set to darkest to lightest, although that's not imperative, just a matter of personal choice.

Let me bump this post up. I read someplace, even I did not try it myself, that multiple exposures combines with EC does HDR for you in camera into one RAW file.Does anyone know if the effect is the same as going through bracketing and combining images in PP?Thanks,Vlad
#12. "RE: Setting up a Nikon D7000 for HDR" | In response to Reply # 11
On a theoretical basis, the effect should be the same. But of course you have far more control over the blending of images when using software such as NIK HDR than when doing in the Touchup Menu in camera.As always, it is critical when shooting to keep a constant aperture, ideally use a tripod and set the white balance before pushing the shutter.

I also read something similar someplace - but it was followed up by several explanations of why that wasn't anything the same as the HDR achieved in PP. In fact the person who posted about it was having problems getting it to work, and as it turns out it won't work, at least the way he wanted. Could be talking about something else though. In the end, it seems like a lot of trouble to go through to achieve something that can be achieved easily and better with Nik's HDR Efex Pro or similar stuff.

There it is! It looks like that would work, and some of the images at the end seem ok, although it's hard to tell - not a very good video. It also seems like a LOT more trouble than the method I use, and requires a tripod and remote shutter release. I suppose it's a neat trick to have in one's arsenal of photographic techniques though, maybe worth investigating.

I ran into this problem with my D90, which also can only do 3-shot brackets and also does not have U1/U2 settings capability. My workaround, which will also work fine for the D7000, is to do the following:•shoot Aperture priority at base ISO, choosing your aperture for desired DOF•shoot an optimally exposed image (0EV compensation)•select 3-shot bracketing at ±1EV intervals•dial in -2EV exposure compensation and shoot 3 images (gives -3EV, -2EV, -1EV) -- either individually or as a burst on CL•dial in +2EV exposure compensation and shoot 3 images (gives +1EV, +2EV, +3EV)This gives a 7-shot ±3EV series. At this point I check the histograms on the -3EV and +3EV images to see if I have covered the complete dynamic range. If not, I manually shoot additional individual images with larger exposure compensations.I have read (I think on Peter Tellone's HDRImage blog) that a larger number of more tightly spaced exposures improves the ability of the HDR software (he was using Photomatix, I think, but the argument applies to HDR Efex Pro 2 as well) to handle noise. Nevertheless, I shot a number of perfectly acceptable HDR images on my D90 with a 3-shot ±3EV series.Now that I have a D7100, I have U1 set up for bracketing a 5-shot ±2EV series as a default. I can get a wider dynamic range by altering the bracketing interval -- increasing the bracketing interval from 1EV to 2EV gives a ±4EV series, which has proved useful on occasion.Dave

Rep. Jeff Denham, R-Turlock, and four other Republican congressmen from California announced this week their plans to hold a field hearing and tour drought-impacted areas of the Central Valley.
They did not announce a date or locations.
The five House members also called on the U.S. Senate to "help provide short-term and long-term measures" to help resolve the state's water crisis.
"We cannot afford to once again have government devastate the Valley's economy," Denham said in a written statement. "Valley families depend on water. The Senate must act now."
Denham's 10th District includes southern San Joaquin County.
The other congressmen involved in calling for a field hearing are Reps. David G. Valadao, R-Hanford; Kevin McCarthy, R-Bakersfield; Devin Nunes, R-Tulare; and Tom McClintock, R- Granite Bay.

ADDISON COUNTY — The area's three high school football teams will open postseason play this weekend, two with top playoff seeds.
Middlebury (8-0) will open its title defense as the No. 1 seed in Division I. The defending champion Tigers will bring a 19-game winning streak into a quarterfinal matchup with No. 8 Champlain Valley (3-5). That game will be played at 7 p.m. on Friday at Doc Collins Field.

MIDDLEBURY — Panther quarterback Matt Milano threw for a career-high four touchdown passes to lead the Middlebury College football team to a 35-6 win over visiting Bates (1-3) this past Saturday. The 3-2 Panthers earned their 26th consecutive victory over Bates and will return to action this Saturday at Trinity.
MIDDLEBURY — The Middlebury College field hockey team rolled to a pair of recent one-sided wins, including the 300th of Coach Katherine DeLorenzo's coaching career.
DeLorenzo, who earlier this season won her 200th game at Middlebury, has a career head coaching record of 300-114-2. This season the Panthers are 13-1, 8-1 in NESCAC play, and are ranked No. 3 in NCAA Division III. They will host Wesleyan on Saturday at 11 a.m.
MIDDLEBURY — The Middlebury College women's soccer team split two NESCAC games over the weekend. At 8-6, 4-5 in league play, the defending NESCAC champion Panthers can apparently nail down the No. 5 seed for the upcoming league playoffs with a win over visiting last place Wesleyan at 11 a.m. this Saturday.
On this past Saturday, the Panthers blanked visiting Bates, 2-0. The Bobcats dropped to 7-6, 3-5 in league play.
MIDDLEBURY — The Middlebury College men's soccer team split two recent games to move to 7-3-3, 4-2-3 in NESCAC play. The Panthers are currently in fifth place in the league standings, but will look to move up when they host Wesleyan (7-2-3, 5-2 NESCAC heading into a Wednesday game vs. Trinity) on Saturday at 2:30 p.m.
Last Saturday, the Panthers edged visiting Bates, 2-1, in overtime. Greg Conrad scored 2:28 into overtime to lift the Panthers over the Bobcats (4-8-1, 2-6 NESCAC).
MIDDLEBURY — Visiting Vergennes controlled most of the territory and the action on Friday, earning a 36-9 edge in shots at goal, but the Middlebury Union High School soccer team relied on defense and goaltending to hang in and earn a 1-1 tie.
VERGENNES — Maybe in the end the result on Saturday between the 9-3-2 Tigers and the host 3-11 Vergennes Union High School girls' soccer team is not so surprising — MUHS won, but just by 1-0 and needed almost 74 minutes to score against the stubborn Commodores.
ADDISON COUNTY — The Middlebury and Otter Valley union high school football teams won games this past weekend to nail down No. 1 seeds in their divisions, while Mount Abraham lost on the road but still earned a postseason berth.
MUHS dismissed visiting Burlington, 51-0, on Friday, as the Tigers posted their third straight shutout.
SOUTH BURLINGTON — The Mount Abraham Union High School girls' soccer team dropped its final game of the regular season, 2-1, at Rice on Friday, but the Eagles still apparently earned a top-four seed in Division II.
As of Sunday's deadline for this edition of the Independent, the Vermont Principals' Association had yet to make official tournament pairings.
ADDISON COUNTY — In local field hockey action late last week, Otter Valley and Middlebury won road games to nail down high seeds. Mount Abraham was idle due to the South Burlington teachers' strike.
The Vermont Principals' Association was set to make playoff pairings official on Monday. According to unofficial standings at the VPA website all three local teams will be hosting games this week.

$100mil+ for sure
Robocop is tracking really well for this weekend in China, it's opening weekend. 25+ Million looks in-line, based on today's initial tracking, which gives it a much better opening 3-day performance in China, than in the US. Plus, SPRI is distributing the film in China, which will give Sony the first bite of the box office collections, rather than MGM.
It is now very likely that Sony will make a small, but tidy profit from Robocop, inspite of the US box office 'disaster'. Looking forward to April/May, Spiderman will put a substantial chunk of cash on Sony's balance sheet, as they are completely in charge of financing and distributing it. More $$$$ from SPE = Higher Sony SP.
Sentiment: Strong Buy
Too bad to cost 130$ million to make. lollolol...

Coordinates: 56°26′45″N 3°10′04″W / 56.445868°N 3.167898°W
Inchture[pronunciation?] is a village in Scotland on the A90 trunk road between Perth and Dundee on the northern side of the Firth of Tay.[1] It is approximately nine miles (14 km) from Dundee city centre and 13 miles (21 km) from Perth centre. The village is bypassed by the A90 road and benefits from a flyover (grade-separated) junction onto the road making it popular with commuters working in Perth, Dundee and further afield.
The village comprises a post office, small shop, hotel, a primary school and a church. There are approximately 100 original houses in the village although an additional 130 homes are currently being constructed by house builders Muir Homes and Barratt Homes.
Inchture is situated within the Carse of Gowrie.[2]
Inchture is twinned with the village of Fléac near Angoulême in France.
At the east end of the village is a lodge and avenue that formerly led to the mansion-house of Rossie Priory, now cut off by the modern A90. This avenue is lined on both sides by giant redwood trees (Sequoiadendron giganteum). These were planted in 1853, and are the first known examples of the species successfully cultivated outside North America.

Zaha was taunted by Leeds fans over his impending transfer to Manchester United and responded by raising his middle finger towards the travelling support.
However, he said via Twitter on Sunday: "On that note I also wanted to apologise for the gesture I did towards the Leeds fans in yesterday's game. Very unprofessional from me."
Zaha, who played the full 90 minutes of Saturday's 2-2 draw with Leeds, sealed a switch to United in January but part of the deal to take him to Old Trafford was that he remain on-loan at Palace for the remainder of this season.
Manchester United and Leeds remain fierce rivals despite the Yorkshire club's relegation from the Premier League in 2004.

Edwards eyes further success
Follow the Investec Test series on ecb.co.uk - click here for all the latest news, exclusive interviews, video highlights and match reports
England are sure to test the mettle of West Indies' inexperienced top order this summer, but may just discover their vice-captain is a tough nut to crack.
Kirk Edwards was elevated last month to be Darren Sammy's deputy before the start of the three-Test series at home to Australia, and less than a year after marking his debut with a second-innings century.
The steely-eyed number three has added another hundred in his seven Tests to date at an average a shade above 50.
In an era when the West Indies - shorn of much of their first-choice talent by the lure of the Indian Premier League and other complications - are struggling to unearth a Test class batting line-up, Edwards' figures stack up impressively.
The tourists, set to begin their campaign with a three-day match against Sussex at Hove tomorrow, cannot afford any self-inflicted damages from adventurous young batsmen against the swinging and seaming ball in conditions highly likely to favour England's world-beating attack.
But as long as the laconic Edwards bats as he speaks, it is a safe bet there will be no such misjudgements from him.
"I don't get caught up in all the stuff that's going on around me. I just focus on what I have to do and go about it in my own way," he said at the County Ground today, as he and his team-mates prepared to practise outside for the first time since arriving in England.
"It depends on what the team needs. Whatever the team wants, I try to go and get it. But if I don't have control of my mind, I'm of less value to my team."
Edwards, it seems, will be undaunted but not unprepared for the stern challenge ahead in three Tests, which start at Lord's on May 17.
"Wherever you go is a test. Different places provide different challenges," he said. "It's just about adjusting to the conditions, and being tough mentally out there.
"England have built themselves into the number one team in the world - give credit to them for that. But whoever you play against, as a batsman, you have to play the ball; you're not playing opposition, in that sense.
"My focus is on just that, getting into good positions and playing the cricket ball."
Will he be taking care, above all, to leave well too?
Edwards is unimpressed with such ham-fisted inquiries and poor phrasing. But more importantly, he will not be pre-judging any of his innings or the bowlers he must face.
"That's a strange question - you're not going to leave the ball if it's on the stumps," he said.
"Batting is a reactive thing. Obviously, you have your batting plan in your mind. But you have to wait and see what the guys send down at you."
The 27-year-old's reason and strategy hint strongly at a batsman of substance, unlike perhaps some of his recent predecessors who have fleetingly demonstrated the shot-making prowess of West Indies yore - without any of the durability.
That, of course, is a charge no-one could ever lay at middle-order limpet Shivnarine Chanderpaul - who has scored a fair chunk of his 10,000-plus runs against England and, two tours back, was the one batsman they simply could not shift.
Chanderpaul's best was not enough even then to keep the Windies competitive in England. But coach Ottis Gibson was at pains yesterday to stress the diminutive world number one batsman's value to his team, not just in terms of runs but the advice he is prepared to impart as he enters the veteran stage.
That is a character trait Edwards has yet to identify, but he nonetheless holds Chanderpaul in high regard.
"Shiv's a guy who, obviously if you go over, he'll talk to you and give you some advice," he said. "But he's a bit 'in his head', and that's the strength of his game. I'm pretty much like that as well.
"Everybody's experience with another person is going to be different. But he's a guy I enjoy playing cricket with, and obviously I admire the way he goes about his work.
"So hats off to Shiv on achieving everything he has so far."
Half as much from Edwards will make him a major asset to West Indies, and if he lets his bat do the talking this month and next England may have a battle on their hands after all.

In 2012, Pastor Bob and Vicki felt that God was leading a group of people to plant a new Christ-centered, Bible believing community church in the Pine Grove area which will join other area churches in showing the love of Christ to Pine Grove. As a ministry team, we believe that God's plan is to work through His Church in this age. We also believe that God has called us to be a part of equipping God's people to do the work of ministry.

Eames: Beautiful Details by Eames Demetrios AMMO Books 2014, 408 pages, 12.5 x 9.2 x 2.2 inches $41 Buy one on Amazon
One of my favorite speakers at San Mateo Maker Faire this year was Llisa Demetrios, granddaughter of Charles Eames. Her talk included very personal remembrances of times with her grandfather and with his wife Ray Eames. Llisa shared family photos taken at their iconic home, Case Study House #8, as well as playful letters from her grandfather in rebus form and rare snips of their short films. All very charming and enjoyable to get an inside look at Charles and Ray Eames. If you missed it, you now have a second chance to explore the personal side of the Eames in Eames: Beautiful Details.
The title is apt as the unusual format with 400 twice-as-wide-as-tall pages makes for panoramic layout spreads, not unlike the multi screen format of their films. You may think you have seen some of these images before, but not like this with extra detail and context. And as Charles Eames famously said, "The details are not the details; the details make the product," or in this case, the book.
This elegant book is organized by chapters for each of the various aspects of the Eames' work, e.g., graphics+textiles, furniture+experiments, toys+games, etc., with personal essays and quotes by three generations of the Eames family: Charles and Ray, daughter Lucia Eames, and grandkids. It's like sitting down with the family and their photo album. The many candid (and cleverly posed) photos depict their proto-Maker life, with work, family and home all blended together in and around their lively house/studio: Charles at a Moviola at work on a film, Ray designing textiles and painting, then, later, the same space reconfigured as a giant play area for visiting grandkids with a mountain of boxes for stacking (and crashing!).
