No balls. None. Zero. Zip. Nada. It's a rumor, folks. The same rumor that made it run up on Friday. Just because it wasn't announced today doesn't mean it's not going to happen. I don't know if it will or won't, but plenty of people in the media still think it will. And even if it doesn't happen, GRPN is still a good buy at these prices. Are you people borrowing money from loan sharks to invest or something? Have some patience, FFS.
Sentiment: Buy
I hope everyone bails and I can get in around 3.80 -
Ahhhhh. Can you FEEL the love GRPN engenders? It's palpable. LOL.
Dreamer......I told you last week, and you an so-in-sincere would not listen. Perhaps the pain will now convince you otherwise.
Sentiment: Strong Sell
It should be significant to you that the only thing that could push this garbage over $4 was a silly buyout rumor. It's going back down where it belongs now and will be bankrupt and delisted in 2013.
ho hum. i hope you don't post with the intentions of actually providing useful advice.
do you want me to pull up some of your posts when GRPN was under $3 and you predicted bankruptcy? thank god I didn't listen to you and made a 25% profit as a result.
I believe you said it would tank AH today, too. Your skills of prognostication are truly worthy of a merit badge.

Luci McQuity Hindmarsh booked an 'Elsa From Frozen Entertainer' from London party entertainment agency AEIOU Parties Ltd for her daughter's 5th birthday party.
She wasn't happy.
Luci writes:
I think the photos say it all. She looked dreadful, like she'd left a rave at 6am. Apparently the Elsa outfit had been worn by another entertainer earlier that day and was wet with sweat. So, our entertainer decided to put the outfit on OVER THE TOP over her own clothes, which happened to be black. She didn't even bother to put the costume shoes on and wore a pair of tatty black flat shoes. The dress came undone at the back, someone did it up for her, but it wouldn't stay done up, so she left it to hang off. The wig didn't fit her and she didn't bother to put any make-up on.

I'm not really familiar with some of the new internal php changes in WP2.1, so I'm hoping someone can help me with this. I just upgraded to 2.1RC1 to see how my custom theme and all the plugins I'm using would work. The plugins all work fine. But my theme has a problem with it. For some reason, the blogroll won't load.
I tried it out with the default theme, and the blogroll worked just fine. So I went in and replaced <?php get_links(); ?> with <?php wp_list_bookmarks(); ?>. The blogroll than loaded but all the links were indented and spaced too far apart.
Any ideas?

Semi-live trade deadline blog - 02-28-11
Welcome to Empty Netter semi-live trade blog. This is exclusive coverage from our couch. Pretty much, we're just going to sit here in Castle EN's misson control watching TSN's TradeCentre show, keep an eye on Twitter and write up the trades or any other transactions here on the blog. If the Penguins are involved in any transactions, we'll create an individual post for that. Enjoy:
9:56 a.m.: The Kings signed forward Justin Williams (right) to a four-year deal worth $14.6 million. He will have a salary cap hit of $3.65 million. Williams was scheduled to become an unrestricted free agent after this season. In 62 games this season, Williams, 29, has 49 points (20 goals, 29 assists)
EN Says: Solid move for the Kings. They keep a top-six player under contract. And that's not a bad cap hit for a guy who is good for 20 goals a season if healthy. That said, that's a big IF. Williams has been relatively healthy this season after a few seasons of battling injuries.
10:32 a.m.: The Thrashers have signed defenseman Mark Stuart (right) to a three-year contract worth $5.1 million. He will have a salary cap hit of $1.7 million. In 35 games this season, Stuart has five points (one goal, five assists) Stuart, 26, was acquired earlier this month along with forward Blake Wheeler in a trade which sent forward Rich Peverley and defenseman Boris Valabik to the Bruins. Stuart was scheduled to become an urestricted free agent after this season.
EN Says: Stuart is a solid No. 5-6 defenseman who won't make or anyone's team. He's a physical force and will drop the gloves on occasion but he offers little in the way of offense. That's a slightly high cap hit for a player with limited offense.
10:38 a.m.: The Panthers have traded forward Radek Dvorak (right) and a fifth-round draft pick to the Thrashers in exchange for forwards Niclas Bergfors and Patrick Rissmiller.
Dvorak, 33, has appeared in 53 games this season and has 21 points (seven goals, 14 assists). Scheduled to become an unrestricted free agent this offseason, Dvorak has a salary cap hit of $1.7 million.
Bergfors, 23, has played in 52 games this season and has scored 29 points (11 goals, 18 assists). Scheduled to become a restricted free agent this offseason, Bergfors has a salary cap hit of $900,000.
Rissmiller, 32, has played in one NHL game this season and has no points. He has spent most of the season with Lake Erie of the AHL. In 43 AHL games this season, Rissmiller has 30 points.
EN Says: This is exactly what the Thrashers need. Dvorak is a fantastic penalty killing forward and the Thrashers have the third-worst penalty kill in the NHL at 77.3 percent. He'll provide an immediate upgrade in that area. For the Panthers, they're clearly re-building and Bergfors is a legit top-six forward prospect who just didn't work out with head coach Craig Ramsay. He's exactly the type of player the Panthers need to build a new foundation. Rissmiller is a "tweener" NHL/AHL type.
11:38 a.m.: It's been an hours since the last trade. A pretty quiet day so far. Given the fact that so many major deals occurred int he past two weeks involving the likes of Tomas Kaberle, James Neal and others, there just aren't a lot of major deals to be made today. On top of that, there are only really six teams which are clear-cut sellers right now. So many teams believe they have a chance at the postseason.
11:45 a.m.: The Panthers have traded defenseman Dennis Wideman to the Capitals in exchange for forward prospect Jake Hauswirth and a third-round pick this summer. In 61 games this season, Wideman, 27, has 33 points (nine goals, 24 assists) and is a minus 26. He is scheduled to become an unrestricted free agent after 2011-12. He has a salary cap hit of $3,937,500.
Hauswirth has appeared in 37 games with the ECHL's South Carolina Stingrays and has scored 14 points.
EN Says: We like the move for the Capitals in that they don't give up a lot to get a good puck moving defenseman. And with defenseman Mike Green battling health issues in regards to his head, they need someone to pick up those minutes. But Wideman is not very good defensively. He a lite version of Green. If the Capitals can team him with someone like Scott Hannan, perhaps some deficincies in his defensive game can be nullified.
For the Panthers, it's more of the same, they're re-building. But they didn't get a lot in return. The draft pick probably has the most value. Hauswirth is a margainal prospect at best.
12:02 p.m.: A few minor waiver claims. The Thrashers claimed forward Robbie Schremp, 24, from the Islanders. In 45 games this season, Schremp (right) has 22 points (10 goals, 12 assists)
The Senators claimed goaltender Curtis McElhinney, 27, from the Lightning. The Lightning acquired McElhinney in a trade last week which sent Dan Ellis to the Ducks. In 21 games this season, all with Anaheim, McElhinney has a 6-9-1 record with a 3.43 goals against average, .890 save percentage and two shutouts.
The Flames claimed defenseman Brett Carson, 25, from the Hurricanes. In 13 NHL games this season, he had no points.
12:03: The Red Wings signed goaltender Jimmy Howard to a two-year contract extension worth worth $4.5 million. He will have a salary cap hit of $2.25 million. Howard, 26, has a 30-12-3 record this season with a 2.79 goals against average and .908 save percentage. He was scheduled to become a restricted free agent after this season.
EN Says: That's a really good cap hit for a starting goaltender on a Stanley Cup contender. That said, he still battles with consistency.
12:51 p.m.: The Blue Jackets have traded defenseman Rostislav Klesla (right) and forward Dane Byers to the Coyotes in exchange for forward Scottie Upshall and defenseman Sami Lepisto.
Klelsa, the first first-round in the history of the Blue Jackets, has appeared in 45 games this season and has 10 points (three goals, seven assists). Signed through 2013-14, Klesla, 28, has a salary cap hit of $2.975 million.
Byers, 24, is a forward prospect. In 48 games with the AHL's Springfield Falcons this season, he has 25 points.
Upshall, 27, has appeared in 61 games this season and has 27 point (16 goals, 11 points). He is scheduled to become an unrestricted free agent this offseason. He has a cap hit of $2.25 million.
Lepisto, 26, has played in 51 games this season and has 11 points (four goals, seven assists). Scheduled to become a restricted free agent this offseason, he has a salary cap hit of $800,000.
EN Says: We like this move for the Coyotes more than the Blue Jackets. The Coyotes are a little shorthanded on defense with Ed Jovanovski recovering from a head injury. Klesla, when healthy, can eat some major minutes. He competent in all areas of the game, but hardly stands out in any of them. He offers size at 6-foot-3, 220 pounds but his biggest minus is that he's injury prone. Interestly, Klesla is now one of two players on the Coyotes' roster signed past 2012-14.
For the Blue Jackets, they get an agitator in Upshall who has some scoring touch. Defensively, Upshall is a hard worker in the high traffic areas.
Lepisto is a small body (6-foot-0, 190 pounds) who can move the puck and eat minutes. He's not a strong presense in his own zone and tends to lose physical battles.
1:56 p.m.: The Blackhawks have acquired defenseman Chris Campoli (right) and a conditional seventh-round pick from the Senators for an forward Ryan Potulny and a second-round pick.
Campoli, 26, has appeared in 58 games this season and has scored 14 points (three goals, 11 assists). Scheduled to be a restricted free agent after this season, he has a salary cap hit of $1.4 million.
Potuln, 26, has played in three NHL games this season and has failed to score a point. In 58 games this season with the AHL's Rockford IceHogs, Potulny has scored 41 points. He is a restricted free agent after this season and has a salary cap hit of $500,000.
EN Says: We like the trade for the Senators. They unload a depth defenseman for a fairly high draft pick. Potulny is a decent throw-in.
Campoli is a depth defenseman with offensive abilities. The Blackhawks never really got over the depth they had to purge from their roster last offseason and with Jordan Hendry going down last night with an disclosed injury, the Blackhawks need healthy bodies on the blue line. At the very least, Campoli provides that.
Potulny is a depth player. He has produced points at the NHL level. He had 32 points in 64 games with the Oilers in 2009-10.
2:04 p.m.: The Hurricanes have acquired defenseman Bryan Allen from the firesale Panthers in exchange for forward Sergei Samsonov.
Allen, 30, has appeared in 53 games this season and has 12 points (four goals, eight assists). He is scheduled to be an unrestricted free agent after 2011-12. He has a salary cap hit of $2.9 million.
Samsonov, 32, has appeared in 58 games this season and has 26 points (10 goals, 16 assists). Scheduled to become an unrestricted free agent after this season, Samsonov has a salary cap hit of $2.533 million.
EN Says: This is exactly the move the Hurricanes need. They aren't an overly big or physical team. Allen is a big body (6-foot-4, 220 pounds) and loves to mix it up. He can be a Hal Gill-type for the Hurricanes. He doesn't offer much on offense but the Hurricanes don't need that from him.
Something tells the Panthers had to take Samsonov in return just to clear salary. He's been relegated to a fourth-line role and he's entering the final year of his contract. He's definitely not part of the Panthers' future.
2:14 p.m. The Ducks added a little grit to the lineup by acquiring forward Brad Winchester from the Blues in exchange for a third-round pick this summer
Winchester, 29, has appeared in 57 games, scored 14 points (nine goals, five assists) and 86 penalty minutes. Scheduled to become an unrestricted free agent after this season, Winchester has a salary cap hit of $700,000.
EN Says: Winchester is pretty much a third/fourth-line grinder with a little skill and will drop the gloves. Don't start planning the parade in Anaheim.
2:24 p.m. Here's a big one finally. The Oilers have traded forward Dustin Penner (right) to the Kings in exchange for defensive prospect Colten Teubert, a first-round pick this summer and a conditional draft pick in 2012.
Penner, 28, has appeared in 62 games this season and scored 39 points (21 goals, 18 assists). Scheduled to become an unrestricted free agent after 2011-12, Penner has a salary cap hit of $4.25 million.
Teubert, 20, was a first-round pick (No. 13 overall) in 2008. In 39 games with the AHL's Manchester Monarchs this season, Teubert has 10 points.
EN Says: Great trade for the Oilers. They unload a player who just never worked out for them when the signed him as a restricted free agent in the 2007 offseason. In return, they get a defenseman who projects as a top-two blue liner and two fairly high draft picks. Teubert is a big (6-foot-4, 195 pounds) player who has a nasty edge to his game. He has some offensive protential, but his game is physical play.
The Kings had a ton of salary cap space ($22 million) before today and they used up a good bit of it in this deal. Penner is an immediate upgrade in terms of top-six skill. He's a big (6-foot-4, 245 pounds) power forward who can make life miserable for opponents in front of the net. On top of that, he has playoff experience having won the Stanley Cup with the Ducks in 2007. That said, the Kings paid a pretty big price for him.
3:00 p.m. The deadline has hit but a few trades always trickle in afterwards on account of paperwork.
3:04: p.m. And this is one of them. The Devils have traded forward Jason Arnott, one of the bigger names on the market, to the Capitals in exchange for forward David Steckel.
Arnott, 36, has appeared in 62 games this season and has 24 points (13 goals, 11 assists). Arnott is scheduled to become an unrestricted free agent after this season. He has a salary cap hit of $4.5 million.
Steckel, 28, has appeared in 57 games this season and has 11 points (five goals, six assists). Steckel is scheduled to become an unrestricted free agent after 2012-13. He has a salary cap hit of $1.1 million.
EN Says: Nice move for the Capitals. They get a long-coveted No. 2 center and a player with playoff championship experience. At 6-foot-5, 220 pounds, Arnott is a big body who can create space for his winger but he's fairly beat up at age 36. This is not the same Arnott who was a legit No. 1 center with Patrik Elias and Petr Sykora 10 years ago.
The Devils get a little younger with the move. Steckel is a fourth-line grinder who is dominant in the faceoff circle.
3:15 p.m.: The Flames acquired forward Fredrik Modin (right) from the Flames in exchange for a seventh-round pick this summer.
Modin, 36, has appeared in 36 games this season and has 10 points (seven goals, three assists). Scheduled to become an unrestricted free agent this summer, Modin has a salary cap hit of $800,000.
EN Says: Interim Flames general manager Jay Feaster is familiar with Modin having won the Stanley Cup with him in Tampa Bay in 2004. Modin is very, very injury prone, but if he's healthy, a big IF, he's a solid playoff preformer. He turned it on for the Kings in a brief postseason run last season with four points (three goals, one assists) in six playoff games. In Tampa Bay's Cup run of 2004, he had 19 points in 24 games.
3:16 p.m.: The firesale continues in Florida as forward Chris Higgins (right) is sent to Vancouver in exchange for defenseman Evan Oberg and a third-round pick this summer.
Higgins, 27, has played in 48 games this season and has 23 points (11 goals, 12 assists). Scheduled to be an unrestricted free agent after this season, he has a salary cap hit of $1.6 million.
Oberg, 23, has appeared in two NHL games this season and has failed to record a point. In 38 games with the AHL's Manitoba Moose, Oberg had 11 points.
EN Says: The Canucks needed some bottom six forwards to fill out their roster. That's pretty much what Higgins is. He's a tremendous penalty killer.
The Panthers are trying to re-build their team and they aren't messing around. They're moving anyone they can out of town. Oberg is a prospect. He's a puck mover who isn't particularly strong in his own end.
3:21 p.m. The Canucks added another bottom-six forward by adding Maxim Lapierre (right) and minor league forward MacGregor Sharp from the Ducks in exchange for forward Joel Perrault and a third-round pick in this summer's draft.
Lapierre, 25, has appeared in 59 games this season with the Ducks and Canadiens and has scored 11 points (five goals, six assists) with 72 penalty minutes. Scheduled to be a restricted free agent after this season, Lapierre has a salary cap hit of $900,000.
Sharp, 25, has appeared in 50 games with the AHL's Syracuse Crunch and has scored 13 points.
Perrault, 27, has appeared in seven NHL games this season with no points.
EN Says: The Canucks added another agitator to the lineup for little cost. On top of that, Lapierre had a solid playoffs performance for the Canadiens last season. Vancouver can stand to add anyone with playoff experience to its roster.
Sharp and Perrault are minor leaguers with minimal NHL potential.

Skip to comments.Im just quitting: A scene right out of Atlas Shrugged in Birmingham
Posted on 07/25/2011 7:22:50 AM PDT by FreedomPoster
If it had been a scene in Atlas Shrugged, the guy would have disappeared into the secrecy of Colorado with a shadowy figure who we would later learn to be John Galt. In real life, the story will probably be more complex. But I wonder how long its going to be before businesspeople really do start walking away and deciding its not worth doing business in America today. Or it it already happening and we just dont know it?
The man you see in the picture at the right is named Ronnie Bryant. He operates coal mines in Alabama. Id never heard of him until this morning, but after what I saw and heard from him, Id say hes a bit like a southern version of Ellis Wyatt from Ayn Rands novel. What I saw made an impression on me.

We have good friends who are veterinarians. You can sell property such as a clinic building, but the practice itself is so dependent upon the personal interactions of the clients with the vet, that it isn't a commodity. No one *owns* a client base. About all a professional can do is grow into a corporate practice and then sell out to the remaining practitioner partners, assuming all that growth was actually successful or not so stressful as to almost not be worth it. A sole practitioner really has nothing to sell.
Nice. Looking forward to it.

"There is no such thing as ordinary people. We are ordinary or extraordinary as we so choose to be. And, when we choose to be ordinary that is okay, it does not require any special treatment."
I just got off of a call from a friend of mine in the UK. He told me an anecdote about something Ronald Reagan ran across while touring one of the space centers here in the US.
A janitor was spotted in a hallway that was supposed to be cleared by Secret Service. Reagan spotted the man, who was shuffling his rolling cart and waste bucket, out of a door at the behest of Secret Service.
Reagan saw that the man was more than compliant, and after checking with security, greeted the man in the hall.
Reagan greeted the man, and as an icebreaker asked the man what he did there at the space center. From people there, as soon as he asked the question he sort of wanted to pull it back, given the man was pushing a janitorial cart.
What surprised him was the reply:
"Mr. President, I help build the finest spacecraft on earth, and they put men in orbit, and on the moon."
There's no such thing as 'only a janitor'.
I have no idea whether this story is true. The point of it remains valid.
In any significant effort, all jobs matter.
Read the comments below the article. Chilling.
Bryant isn't the only one throwing in the towel.
I frequently debate with a Lib in the office. He's a decent sort, if a bit misguided. I suspect that he thinks the same of me. :-)
He couldn't understand that people would actively *choose* to make less money. He just couldn't conceive of it. "I'm sure that, given a choice between making 50K/yr and 100K/yr, that people will always choose the higher number. Always, and without exception."
He didn't believe me when I told him about some of the businessmen I know. (see my previous posts)
Hell, I doubt he believed me when I told him that *I* choose not to make more money as, say, a Computer Consultant. With the Gov't taking 1/2 of the difference (say between my regular gig, and consulting) right off the top, what would be the point to working twice as hard and having far less job security? Unless there's a significant payback to accepting the risk (right now, there is not) ... why accept it?

Those who had their jobs destroyed will wonder what happened. The smarter ones will move on, or perhaps learn a new trade that still has a demand. Perhaps the slower of them will blame folks like Mr. Bryant.
Those who destroyed the jobs will self-righteously, and with a completely clean conscience, move on to their next target.
That's exactly what he did, and also (now that he's thinking about retirement) what he's now attempting to do. No one wants to step into his role as the "owner / manager".
He could sell to competitors (I think that he entertained an offer at one time), or close the practice completely (approximtely the same thing, only he makes $$$ with the former) ... but this evil, greedy, capitalistic so-and-so (/sarc) feels a responsibility to all of the people who work for him, and frankly, the patients, too. He doesn't want to put several dozen people out of work, esp. in a market like this.
So, he keeps on going. He's removed himself from a lot of the day-to-day - his people seem to have no problem with making decisions, so long as they don't accept responsibility to go along with them. :-) His attitude is, more-or-less, "Meh, I'm still making money, but don't really care one way or the other. Retirement is paid for, Kid's college bills are paid for, now I'd just like to get my own time and enjoy the grandkids." But the current environment, and his sense of responsibility, won't let him.
And don't get the guy started on Obamacare. Never mind the business side, he says that his medical training is going to come in handy for himself and the rest of his family, later.
If Ronnie Bryant meant what he said in that meeting, then I think I found a new hero. I will aspire to have cajones like that!

Thanks. Such a shame to see this country run down by those who can't even handle their own problems.
Teton County has high taxes.
Hmmmmm. That tank could easily have an interior partition full of subsidized ethanol for all we know. Mentioning Laz wuz the tipoff;-)
Thanks for the ping.
Perhaps we should keep a tally of the public "Gulchers."
Until we get shed of Obongo Bozo and his LIEberal/Socialist/Marxist/Fascicst minions, there will be more businessmen and women who will just throw up their hands, close their business's doors and go to their version of Galt's Gulch.
PS Is it 2012 yet?
Obama and his thugs are doing to same thing to the natural gas and oil business here in Texas and Louisiana. He talks a good game on natural gas, but his departments and leftwing/marxist accomplices are actually destroying our domestic energy production with regulations and lawsuits.
He is also destroying the farming industry with the same stuff...so don't think for a moment that you can escape the marxist's grasp by going to your own private property..they are out to get that too. The next they they are going to do is try to raid everyone's 401 accounts....mark my word.
They will blame it on Republicans generally...and George W. Bush in particular. It's all part of their scheme.
true. too true.
It would be better all around if conservative small business owners would just lie low and stop hiring and do their best to hang on until we KO Obammy and his tribe of czars.
Libertarians, on the other hand, relish in the opportunity of misery. Laid off workers and failed businesses in the name of "going galt" is the fairy tale dream.
Mind you, Galt is a fairy tale character in a fiction novel written by an anti-religious freedom materialist zealot from the Soviet Union. It's destruction and ancharcy for the West to be cheered on. Freakin' Freaks!

However, up around that Beartooth range would certainly make for an interesting 'community.'
My thinking, though, is that if/when the SHIF, might be too many that will head for Colorado, Idaho, Wyoming - thinking that's where to go.
I have another place picked out - certainly not 'majestic' as to landscape - but FAR away from cities, plenty of woods, water, wildlife, good growing ground, etc - and a place where none the city escapees would even think to run to. Also, not prone to natural disasters and, if need be, not a long hop (hike) to Canada.
A nice community of like souls could make a good, sustainable, self protecting community that wouldn't be a blip on anyone's radar - especially the goons.
As an Indian friend of mine wrote (song):
So store lots of food
& move far from town
Move close to some wood.
Put seed in the ground
& gather your fiends
& live close and quiet....
And he wrote this 2 decades ago - he "sees" way ahead...and he has done the above and teaching others to -
Interesting indeed. The following quote from blam's thread, "Broke! 10 Facts About The Financial Condition Of American Families....", from yesterday goes into considerable detail, and it is none too hopeful : |
""The federal government bureaucracy has become so oppressive that it is amazing that anyone is still willing to hire workers in this day and age.
Hiring workers has become so complicated and so expensive that many small business owners want to avoid it at all cost.
For example, a small business owner identified as "007" recently left the following comment on one of my recent articles....
""Speaking as a small employer, I would rather have a root canal than another employee. Lets see. You first have to hire someone you trust without some labor lawyer suing you for some type of discrimination. Then you have OSHA to make sure your work place is safe. Then you have workmans compensation insurance, unemployment taxes, health insurance, liability insurance, now Obamacare. Oh be careful not to be deemed to have a hostile work environment. Then you have to negotiate the labor laws. The Department of Labor is constantly cranking out regulation.
Then you get the pleasure of paying payroll taxes both state and federal along with the required filing of a multitude of payroll forms. Miss filing or paying these taxes and you will be crushed with interest and penalties.
Of course, you are competing with businesses that can hire at a fraction of the cost of American Labor and with very little regulations. In this economy, no one in their right mind is hiring into this unstable and declining economy.
If business turns down all you have to worry about is laying off workers. Of course your unemployment insurance tax will go up 200% for years. Then you only have to then worry about a wrongful termination law suit.
If you happen to navigate all of these hurdles and make a profit, watch out for greedy unions waiting to suck the life out of your business. Then you face Obama and the socialist democrats at the end of the day wanting to redistribute your wealth demanding crushing taxes that strip away your working capital. He wants to redistribute it to people who dont work or pay tax at all.
My view, let someone else be the crazy hero to put their life savings at risk to hire employees in this hostile employer environment. I think I will just get a computer to answer my phones, computerize every function of the office, I even have robot floor cleaners to avoid cleaning crews.
Truth is this country has made having employees a tremendous, beuracratic, expensive, legal risk. I am trying to keep the employees I have. However, this golden goose is on strike and will not be hiring further until it makes economic sense to do so.""
May God give us the strength, and the leaders to right the course of events : /

I really like that and completely agree. I have vast respect for every job and for those people in the jobs who realize that, no matter what the job, it is important. for example, a waiter can make or break a dining experience and it is a difficult job that takes intelligence and stamina.
This shows up particularly on that reality show where the boss goes out and does the jobs of various people in the company. Invariable the boss is completely blown away at the complexity of the jobs and the dedication of those doing them.
Thanks for the story.
They're not "wondering." Remember Obama's statement: "If you open a coal fired power plant, we're going to bankrupt you."
That statement says everything about how this administration looks at energy suppliers that aren't "green."
I had Coal miners in both my paternal and maternal sides of the family. My Grandfather and Great Grandfather were both Alabama Coal miners. My Grandfather retired as a Bureau of Mines - Bureau Chief for MESA (Mining Enforcement and Safety Administration) in Birmingham.
This is a cousin from a couple of generations back.

Wow!!! sad, sad, sad.....
That's a tough looking group of teenagers! Maybe some pre-teen.
We will welcome him at the Gulch...
Canada seems to be getting it's act together and shines much brighter than it did over many of the last decades.
He served as a Private in the armed forces during World War I. On Nov. 19, 1927, he married Flora Belle Quinton. On Jan. 25 of the following year he died in a mine accident at the age of 31, crushed by a rock, and was buried in Jefferson County. He became a father, posthumously, when his widow bore his child in the summer of 1928. His older brother Jack had already been killed in a mine accident in 1920.
People lived hard lives back then.
I went Galt Five years ago. Tired of dealing with the government.
Never looked back. Sometimes I look for people to help.
I'm just here because I won a bid on a contract. Yeah, 21 hours drive from TX, but the money is GOOD and the high was
76 today.
Texas ain't as sweet as some folks say it is, jobwise.
My contract included grilled Wapiti, as well.
I tried to get "the little woman" to move there, but she balked.
If only Montana had Wyoming's tax structure, the decisions would be trivial.
I was looking into a giant road trip that included a drive from Denver to Dallas. That seemed to be a relatively nasty leg timewise if one wasn't interested in stops along the way (I've pretty much explored that territory over the last few decades).
We decided to fly to Dallas and back and delete that part of the trip while deferring the rest for a few weeks.
yes on Canada = especially NS, NB. Laid back - much like 60 yrs ago here... and they seem to be pulling back from the brink while we seem hell bent on going over...

They are a Cargo cult. They just know that there is no such thing as producers. Cargo is delivered by a fleet of C-47s.
In other words, it's called "The Aristocracy Of Pull".
It's the best decision I ever made to retire and shed my businesses. Life is Good!
Pretty much sums it up. Makes me wish Hank Rearden (sp?) ran an armory instead of a steel mill.

An ANN-Based Smart Tomographic Reconstructor in a Dynamic Environment
AbstractIn astronomy, the light emitted by an object travels through the vacuum of space and then the turbulent atmosphere before arriving at a ground based telescope. By passing through the atmosphere a series of turbulent layers modify the light's wave-front in such a way that Adaptive Optics reconstruction techniques are needed to improve the image quality. A novel reconstruction technique based in Artificial Neural Networks (ANN) is proposed. The network is designed to use the local tilts of the wave-front measured by a Shack Hartmann Wave-front Sensor (SHWFS) as inputs and estimate the turbulence in terms of Zernike coefficients. The ANN used is a Multi-Layer Perceptron (MLP) trained with simulated data with one turbulent layer changing in altitude. The reconstructor was tested using three different atmospheric profiles and compared with two existing reconstruction techniques: Least Squares type Matrix Vector Multiplication (LS) and Learn and Apply (L + A).

TAMPA, Fla. - Mitt Romney accepted the Republican nomination for president Thursday night in a speech here that scolded President Barack Obama for delivering "disappointment and division" instead of "hope and change," and called for disillusioned voters to unite under a Republican banner of American exceptionalism.
Maryland's delegates to the convention joined the thousands gathered in the Tampa Bay Times Forum in applauding, cheering, shouting, whistling, Tweeting and posting on Facebook as Romney spoke. Delegates reacted throughout Romney's speech, breaking into chants and waving signs in the air.
"He knocked it out of the ballpark," said Ellen Sauerbrey, a former member of the House of Delegates who ran twice for Maryland governor. "I think he did just what he needed to do. The emphasis on jobs, families, freedom - it was a lot of things I wanted to hear and I heard them loud and clear."
Under the heading "We Believe in America," Romney expanded upon the vision of limited government described Wednesday by his running mate, Wisconsin Rep. Paul Ryan. Romney promised tax cuts and lighter regulations for small businesses, which he praised both in personal anecdotes and policy proposals as "America's engine of job growth."
Ryan rougher on Obama
"It was Paul Ryan's job to be rougher on Obama, and Romney's job tonight was to create a vision for the future, and he laid it out in very simple terms,'' said Maryland National Committeeman Louis Pope.
Thursday, Romney used the hype surrounding Obama's candidacy in 2008 to portray himself as a pragmatic leader.
"You know there's something wrong with the kind of job he's done as president when the best feeling you had was the day you voted for him," Romney said. "President Obama promised to begin to slow the rise of the oceans and to heal the planet. My promise is to help you and your family."
Romney devoted part of his speech to courting women voters, highlighting female Republican governors, as well as his hiring of women in the public and private sectors.
Romney's most assertive moments came when he defended Bain Capital, the company he co-founded in 1984, as "a great American success story." The Romney campaign initially touted it as a selling point for their candidate, but Obama and his surrogates have used Romney's time at the company to paint him as a heartless capitalist who shuttered businesses and outsourced jobs for personal gain.
Romney pointed to Obama's lack of private sector experience, which he called a basic qualification for the presidency.
"In America, we celebrate success. We don't apologize for success," Romney said.
Delegate Kelly Schulz, a Frederick County Republican, described the speech as "inspirational and motivational."
"It's certainly going to make people work harder in these 68 days we have left," she said.

WASHINGTON - The Georgetown University sailing team opened the spring season with two events in the Bob Bavier Team Race at the College of Charleston as well as Georgetown Team Race on the friendly waters of the Potomac River. The Hoyas took third place in Charleston and finished fourth at the home.
The first team race intersectional of the spring featured many of the top teams in the country. It was evident from the start that some teams have been practicing and others have been iced out in the long winter.
The Hoyas have been on the water since Feb. 1 and despite some initial rustiness they came prepared and sailed well. The regatta had a double round robin followed by a final four round robin. The Hoyas went 7-2 in round one and then struggled a bit in the second round, going 5-4.
The Hoyas made the final four with Yale, Stanford and Charleston and won all three races. Beating the top three teams consecutively is no easy feat and Georgetown left the regatta feeling confident about their abilities and their chances to continue the tradition of excellence that the Hoyas have come to expect in the postseason.

The Hoyas also hosted the Georgetown Team Race, the first home event of the semester. The event featured a mix of top teams and second teams from Mid-Atlantic Intercollegiate Sailing Association (MAISA) schools. Hobart, boasting its top team, won the event. The only loss for the Statesmen came at the hands of the Hoyas in the first round. Georgetown, in a split sites situation, started three freshman skippers in the first round and finished 5-1. The only loss for the Hoyas was to Navy.
In the second round, the Blue & Gray sailed their women's team as well as a few upperclassmen skippers. The group could not find their rhythm and went 0-5, losing all five races by a narrow margin.

Chelsea tabled an improved bid for Rooney, having had an initial cash offer rebuffed last month.
"A bid was received yesterday and immediately rejected," a United spokesperson told the BBC. "Our position remains that he is not for sale."
England striker Rooney has been reported to be 'angry and confused' with his situation at United.
He was upset at comments by new manager David Moyes that suggested he was a backup to Premier League top scorer Robin van Persie, and has been the subject of transfer speculation since retired manager Alex Ferguson said at the end of last season that the 27-year-old had asked to leave the club.
Rooney joined United for 27 million pounds ($41.24 million)in August 2004 and has made 402 appearances for the club, scoring 197 goals and winning five league titles and the Champions League.
He has two years left of a contract that earns him a basic salary of some 250,000 pounds ($381,800) a week.
Rooney left the club's recent pre-season tour of the Far East with a hamstring injury, hours after arriving in Bangkok. ($1 = 0.6548 British pounds)

Gunshots pierced the air as an angry crowd threw bottles outside the Ferguson Police Department in suburban St. Louis after a grand jury on Monday decided not to indict a white officer in the shooting death of an unarmed black teen.
The police lobbed tear gas in response as a few hundred protesters took to the streets, with some setting fire to a police cruiser and another car and some buildings.
Across the United States, the grand jury's decision sparked mainly peaceful protests as Americans spoke out on racial bias and police violence, issues so raw and emotional that they are often like a tinderbox waiting for a match.

Has anyone had multiple babies with clubbed feet? I know its genetic, so I suppose there is a chance it could happen again.
Just curious!
Has anyone had multiple babies with clubbed feet? I know its genetic, so I suppose there is a chance it could happen again.
Just curious!
I've read that there is only like a 4% chance. Other than that, I have no knowledge in the area. I know my mother-in-law was born with clubfoot, but her brother didn't have it. My mother-in-law had four children and none of them had it. My son is the first since her to have it.
~ Happily married since 06/26/06 ~
~ Mom to: Big Boy E (07/17/09) ~
My husband and his father both were "pigeon toed" where the feet just turn inward and had the same ponsetti bar style repair. It was insane when our was born with clubbed feet... it was like the gene took one step further mutation or something!
That is pretty crazy. The possibility of future children having clubfoot does frighten me, but hopefully it really isn't that common. But I guess of all the things that could be wrong, clubfoot is the least of it, and at least we'd know what to expect!
~ Happily married since 06/26/06 ~
~ Mom to: Big Boy E (07/17/09) ~
And our kids would look alike!
the likelihood also depends on if your lo with clubfoot is a boy or a girl... dd's orthopedic surgeon said we had a higher chance of having another baby with clubfoot since dd had it instead of a boy. apparently the genetic emphasis is greater with females? the probability was 1:50.
anyway - i have had two kids since (girl and boy) and they have both had "normal" feet.
I don't know the statistics but I do know of families who have two or three children with clubfoot. This concerned me, but considering it's a totally "do-able" process, that calmed my nerves somewhat. My second was not born with clubfoot....but I will say, his mild form of cerebral palsy has been harder on all of us than the clubfoot.
I have 3 children (a 6 yr old boy, 4 yr old girl, & 6 month old boy & only the baby has clubfoot, but I understand your concern.
My oldest had metatarsus adductus, and it was corrected through casting. My dd was born with it as well in one foot and the other foot was clubfoot. We've also found out that several cousins in our family that are already grown were born with their feet "turned in."
I think it just all depends, it's possible but hopefully it will be something you won't have to go through again.
