Last week President Obama and Canadian Prime Minister Stephen Harper visited Mexico for what's traditionally called the "Three Amigos" meeting. In the daylong rendezvous, energy issues were slated to play a major role, with Obama and Harper jockeying for room when it comes to the impending decision on the controversial Keystone XL pipeline that would bring dirty crude oil down from Canada to refineries on the Gulf Coast.
However, Mexico also has some major energy changes in the pipeline, and after decades of state-run oil company PEMEX having sole purview over fossil fuel extraction, international investment and companies will now be let into the mix after recent constitutional reforms.

4 Rush Songs That Will Help Strengthen Your Work Ethic
Let me guess—you need a jolt of quintessential Canadian rock to liven up your otherwise dull and uninteresting life? Well, my friend, you need Rush! What's that you say? You also need advice on how to strengthen your work ethic? Again, you need Rush!
It may sound ridiculous, but there's really no substitute for the amount of intellectual depth and unrestrained bravura that this hard-rocking triumvirate brings to the forefront with their personal brand of avant-garde arena rock. Accept no substitutes, because Rush is a one-way ticket to musical ecstasy. Here's the interesting part: the Rush brand of rock is predominately optimistic, and tends to reinforce a number of positive values. Confidence, strength of character, and the importance of critical thinking are just a few of the ideas that the band touches on, making their music an ideal motivator during those tough days on the job. Here's what I mean:
Working Man
With a title like "Working Man" under their belt, you know that Rush cares a great deal about the plight of the, umm, working man. Just knowing that they're looking out for "the little guy" should be enough to bolster anyone's confidence, but when they go the extra mile to show their sincerity, they really drive the point home:
It seems to me
I could live my life
A lot better than I think I am
I guess that's why they call me
They call me the working man
You know what, if Rush isn't going to let life hold them down by the bootstraps, then why should any of us?! Keep that chin up when you're in the middle of a tough shift. You'll get through it; we all do. Tougher days just take a little more perseverance, that's all.
The Trees
Yes, they made a song about trees. No, that's not all the song is about; not entirely, anyway:
There is unrest in the forest
There is trouble with the trees
For the maples want more sunlight
And the oaks ignore their pleas
This song actually ends with the maples forming a union in order to put a stop to their oppression under the oaks' regime. It's really more of a statement than anything else, but there's more than just allegorical value here. If anything, this song reminds us to be appreciative for the way that workplaces in the U.S. tend to operate nowadays. Reasonable working conditions and fair treatment have become more and more commonplace in the past couple decades. In short, things could always be a heck of a lot worse. So, cheer up!
Talk about inspiring! This is one of the trio's most popular tunes, and it's easy to see why. Catchy, literary, insightful, exciting—this is a damn-near perfect song:
Those who wish to be
Must put aside the alienation
Get on with the fascination
The real relation, the underlying theme
Think there's not much value in what you do at work? Think again. It may seem at times like you're just spinning your wheels for no reason, but even the lowest guy (or girl) on the totem pole contributes in some small way to the overall objective at their place of business. At the end of the day, it may just be time for you to get in touch with the purpose your job serves in the greater scheme of things.
Tom Sawyer
Forget all that Mark Twain nonsense. If you ask me (and by reading this, you already have), Rush is responsible for the only Tom Sawyer that matters. So, if you want to be a "modern day warrior," heed the following advice:
Though his mind is not for rent
Don't put him down as arrogant
His reserve, a quiet defense
Riding out the day's events
Sometimes the best advice is to just ride things out and see where the current takes you. There may be a thin line between confidence and arrogance, but don't be afraid to tread that line. Just keep moving forward. After all, there's no sense in moving back, and staying still won't get you anywhere.
Like I said, accept no substitutes. The next time you need a boost of confidence to get you through your work day, try throwing a little Rush on at your desk, cubicle, or workspace. Need a little motivation to accomplish some household tasks? Again, Rush. In fact, just have their music running at all times—that should keep you motivated!
How about you? Know any other Rush songs that you think should've been included? What other bands are great for strengthening your work ethic?
Joseph Giorgi
Joseph is the head of the Media Team at Quality Logo Products. He's a video specialist, blogger, perfectionist, and all-around likeable guy. When he's not busy focusing on the nitty-gritty details of his written and visual work, he's normally listening to bad 80s music and scouring the internet for useless information on useless subjects. You can also connect with Joe on Google+.
You should have included the lyric, "OF SALESMAN!!!!!!!!!" Just saying because I think it's appropriate. This is ridiculous! But awesome!
I second Jana. How dare you, Joe!!
Can we start an argument about how Neil Peart isn't the best drummer in the world? I'm bored.
Great post Joe!! A great blog to end the day before the long weekend. 🙂
Agreed! =)
I love this post Joe! =) It's very positive! Excellent tips and thoughts for a Friday afternoon. I didn't realize that Rush's songs were like this–good to know.
Besides your unprovoked attack on one of the founding fathers of American literature, your evaluation of Rush's songs were great tips for any work place! These little tips will settle in the back of my mind as I go out and have a fantastic ID4 weekend.
WOOOSH!!! Right over my head. I know absolutely nothing about Rush. So while I can understand the concepts you have put forth (nice job btw), sadly all subtlety is lost on me. =[

The Secret Service Colombian prostitution scandal could result in more dismissals as the Senate and House Homeland Security committees widen their investigations.
Rep. Peter King, R-N.Y., chairman of the House Homeland Security Committee, said the agency will deal with the situation.
Meanwhile, the Senate Homeland Security panel is trying to determine whether the Colombian incident was an "exception" or a "pattern of misconduct that has gone on elsewhere by Secret Service agents," Sen. Joe Lieberman, I-Conn., said.
So far, six people have been fired because of the scandal. Five more remain on administrative leave.
"I think we expect in the next day or so to see several more agents being forced to leave," King told NBC's "Today Show."
A 12th agent implicated in the scandal is also being investigated for "improprieties" that took place in a separate incident on April 9.
"Now we don't know at this point what that 12th agent is being charged with and why he's been put on administrative leave. But now you're into the hotel where the president of the United States was going to stay. And it just gets more troubling," Lieberman said.

Heinrich Mann's novel Der Untertan [The Loyal Subject, 1918] is considered among the few great satirical novels in early twentieth-century German literature and Heinrich Mann's most important novel. Published after the end of the First World War, it offers a polemical depiction of the early years in the reign of Kaiser Wilhelm II toward the end of the nineteenth century. The novel follows the rise to fame and fortune of the young middle-class industrialist Diederich Hessling in the fictional Prussian provincial town of Netzig. His success is due to his unscrupulous opportunism, particularly his ability to exploit the newly emerging value system in 1890s Imperial Germany: a mixture of …

NEW YORK -- Chien-Ming Wang became the latest member of the Yankees' walking wounded when it was revealed yesterday that the ace of the staff has a mild strain of his right calf.
Wang, who first felt discomfort in his leg in the seventh inning of Sunday night's 11-2 loss to the Mets, underwent an MRI at New York Presbyterian Hospital yesterday after visible discoloration in his calf.
"You get concerned," said general manager Brian Cashman, who authorized the MRI at the behest of team trainer Gene Monahan. "You never want to hear this stuff. I try not to worry if my medical staff tells me don't worry. I'm not going to overly worry, but it's certainly on the radar now when it wasn't before."
Cashman said Wang would not miss his next scheduled start Saturday against Seattle "if he can do his bullpen (session) fine without restriction" today.
Wang had treatment Monday before noticing the discoloration yesterday.
"I'll be fine," he said. "It's gotten better. I'm happy. I'm good."
Said Cashman: "If the doctors feel this is not an issue, then you move forward. If it is an issue, then you don't. Our doctors have told me if he gets through the bullpen, this is not an issue. But let's get through the bullpen (today)."
Derek Jeter laughed at the notion of taking a day off to heal his bruised left hand suffered Tuesday night. The All-Star shortstop had to leave the series opener against Baltimore in the third inning after getting drilled by a Daniel Cabrera fastball. X-rays were negative and no more tests are scheduled.
"I'm fine," Jeter said before going 0-for-3 with a run and an RBI in last night's 8-0 win. "Everything's good. It didn't feel good (to get hit) ... I never want to come out of games."
Jeter pronounced himself ready to play. He said he didn't think he broke any bones when he was plunked, but "I figured I'd play anyway even if it's broke. ... I've done it before."
Manager Joe Girardi wasn't surprised that Jeter was back in the lineup.
"He loves to play," Girardi said. "Very seldom does he ever come out of a game. I feared the worst when he got hit because it was a loud noise. But we're fortunate.
"Guys play hurt all the time. As long as they can be productive, you send them out there. I believe he'll be productive."
Despite the Yankees' offensive woes, Girardi said he will resist the temptation to bring back Jorge Posada as a designated hitter until he is ready to return to his catcher's position. Posada, on the disabled list with rotator-cuff tendinitis, has been throwing for the past several days.
"The issue is that I don't know how you work him back into the catching," Girardi said. "You have to be able to catch nine innings a couple days in a row. It's just tough to (bring him back as a DH first). Because of his position, it's really difficult for him to do."
Girardi said Posada "looked really good" throwing Tuesday. Girardi maintained that he wouldn't necessarily DH Posada more once he returns, either.
"When (Jorge) comes back, I want him to come back and play every day as a catcher," Girardi said. "We might DH him against some left-handers. We'll just see how he's doing and how everyone else is doing."
Posada, who has been on the DL since April 28, could begin rehab games as early as the end of next week, Girardi said.
The Yankees have not heard whether LaTroy Hawkins will be suspended for throwing at Luke Scott on Tuesday night. The veteran reliever was tossed from the game after a high-and-tight pitch to the Orioles outfielder in the sixth inning.
Hawkins, who insisted he wasn't throwing at Scott in retaliation for Jeter's plunking earlier, said that he fully expects to be suspended.
"We'll just wait and see," Girardi said. "He pitched inside all night (Tuesday). We'll handle it if and when it does come."
With 181 runs scored in their first 45 games as play began last night, the Yankees were off to their worst offensive start since 1990, when they had scored 172 runs to that point. That team finished last in the AL East with 67 wins. ...The team's pitching hasn't done much better. The rotation is averaging fewer than 5Ð innings per game, worst in the American League.
Andy Pettitte will try to end his monthlong slump when he takes the mound to open a weekend series with Seattle tomorrow. The veteran left-hander is 0-for-May and 0-4 in his last five starts after winning three of his first four starts of the season.

EAST RUTHERFORD – Geoff Schwartz says the moment was a blur now. One of the most painful injuries a 6-6, 345-pound person can sustain -- having their toe completely dislodged from their foot during an awkward twist -- was nothing more than a mindless cart ride into the X-Ray room.
His toe has since been reattached, and now he's just waiting for the opportunity to play again.
That might take a while. Not even Schwartz knows when he'll be back. In his mind, the target will be avoiding the short term injured reserve list, which would keep him out at least six weeks.
"I hope to back before then," he said.
But as some around the organization have indicated to us multiple times it looks like the return designation would make the most sense.
So it goes for the Giants' most important offseason acquisition on offense. In the meantime, the offensive line will need to move on without him.
"Of course it is frustrating; I have never really had an in-game injury before," Schwartz said. "It is definitely a disappointment. I will be back, hopefully soon enough."
The good news is that surgery was never an option for Schwartz. The bad news is how wide-open the timetable for his return could be. Right now, Schwartz is on crutches and traveling in a hulking walking boot. He doesn't know when that boot will come off despite the original 7-10 day timetable. Schwartz also doesn't know -- even vaguely -- how long the rehab will take.
"It is just a matter of going through whatever rehab they want me to do, and I will go from there," he said. "There are a lot of different ways to approach it. Being a bigger guy, putting pressure on that toe is not going to help."
In the meantime, the Giants need to cross their fingers and hope that John Jerry's knee responded well to the snaps on Thursday and that Brandon Mosley will recover from his back issue.

His upper body movement was tremendous and was just as important as his speed and two-fisted power.
One thing I always thought was overstated was the effectiveness of his left jab when he was younger. Yeah, he was a better fighter when he threw behind his jab, but it's not like it was a punch he could control a guy or keep him off balance with.

Tyson was really masterpiece of D'Amato. He perfected the style. He didn't know how to fight on back foot, because he wasn't suppose to fight like that. He threw those vicious combinations so natural and instinctively and was so damn quick to counter straight shots of taller guys with hooks. Also as good defence as you'll ever see in aggressive kind of fighter.
People compare Frazier to Tyson, but Mike was just so much better, more complete fighter.

Outstanding defense that was drilled to the extreme(bobbing and weaving, general head movement, hands up etc), great footwork that made him balanced, able to cut off the ring and always be in the right positions for his offense as well as defense. Many combinations that he memorised(Rooney would yell out numbers that him and Mike know were combo's and Tyson would fire them) and delivered in perfect punching form. He even had a great left jab which he used to set everything up, and also bodywork was also stressed by his trainers.
Cus was like an architect. Like it was stated above me, Tyson being a "masterpiece" is a great way of putting it. I don't know if it's a fact that Cus made Tyson stunt his growth in certain ways for the lower center of gravity that suited the style more, but it shows he truly thought of everything.

"You know, you ain't gonna be a jab astist with his size and physique in heavyweight division. His jab was really good considering that."
Yes, I know that. But, some of his fans act like he had a great jab when what he had was a decent tool that helped him get inside. For a while he did the best he could with it for his size....but that still doesn't make it all that great a jab.

I have seen every Mike Tyson fight, just about....and have certainly seen every fight since he beat Marvis Frazier.
Yeah, I saw him occasionally outjab a bigger guy. But, he diidn't use it consistently enough or control anybody enough with it for it to be labeled great.

Early Tyson using Peek-a-boo technique was a beast he had everything combinations, defense, head movement, power, speed and discipline. This Tyson would have beaten Ali, Foreman, Liston, Marciano and anyone else you want throw into the mix.
If Cus did not drop dead and Don King got involved Tyson would have retired undefeated.

For one Texas household, their motto is "the bigger the better".
They are the Hinds of Plano, Texas. They have 18 children, 13 whom are adopted and ten kids still live under their roof.
Their expenses for one month can go as high as $2,000. But with help from the community and a $10,000 dollar tax credit, the Hinds say they wouldn't have it any other way.
"The need of your community, having a servant's heart, and just making a difference in a child's life," Mrs. Hinds explained.
"I love having a big family, because you never get bored," one daughter Candace Hinds said.
One thing the Hinds don't have to worry about is paying the college tuition for all of their children. Children adopted out of foster care can attend the state's universities for free.

I recently came across your the Daughter of the Soil blog and was wondering if there were any sponsored post opportunities available? I represent a number of horticultural clients who are looking to sponsor posts with a contextual link in, either in the text itself or in a disclosure at the end.
Let me know if that's something you'd be interested in, or if you have any similar alternatives and we can discuss further and make arrangements.
My first album, Mind The Gap, was released in 2008 by Sonic Spongecake and a follow-up, Seven Star Green, was released in the summer of 2009. I have an ongoing partnership with
writer, poet, cellist, vocalist and multi-instrumentalist Daniel
Staniforth. He works on my 'solo' music, I contribute to his Luna Trick project and we have a joint project called Alchymical Muse which aims to take advantage of the way our voices combine in a
mesmerising synergy. We've also done theatre and film music and a CD of poetry readings. Blimey.
Daniel and I also run Skylight Press, a small publishing venture which has become our full time job. We specialise in literary fiction (and poetry) and quality occult books (Western Mystery Tradition, faery, Arthurian). We produce 20 books a year and authors include poets Will Alexander, Margaret Randall and Hugh Fox, and esoteric writers Gareth Knight, Wendy Berg, William G. Gray, Alan Richardson and Dion Fortune.
In my 'spare' time, I'm a plant breeder and heritage vegetable conservationist specialising in garden peas and potatoes. My creations include a crimson-podded pea ... no GM, just natural genetics and shamanism! I'm currently working on a book about potato breeding for gardeners. My Daughter of the Soil blog details all these adventures.
Also a very keen photographer ... see my Flickr stream if you want to have a look.
Oh, and a historian ... I run Cheltonia, a local history website for my hometown of Cheltenham which combines my photography with detailed street-by-street research on this beautiful Regency spa resort. Another site, Sulis Manoeuvre, pulls together some of my photography, writings, history researches and pagan instincts – a creative site inspired by the spirit of the land.
Last but nowhere near least, I'm author of two books under my maiden name of Rebecca Wilby: This Wretched Splendour, a stage play set in the first world war trenches, which had a successful run in London in 1998, and In Different Skies, a novel also delving into the trenches of the Somme. I've contributed to other books as well, including one by Gareth Knight, being an initiate of the group he founded.
As you can see I have an incredibly full life, so please forgive me if I don't spend much time online or respond to people's posts about their favourite colour of toilet roll.
"Rebsie has the most beguiling of voices – she really is something special. Just beautiful, uncluttered, refreshing." - ORGAN Magazine
"absolutely delightful" - Stuart Maconie, BBC 6 Music
Reviews of the books:
"The standard first world war play is still R C Sherriff's Journey's End. But Rebecca Wilby knocks it into a cocked hat with This Wretched Splendour ... a more than promising debut." - Michael Billington, The Guardian
"an engaging, affectionate foray into an alien world." - Time Out

Bill O'Reilly Lectures President Obama About The Correct Way To Talk About Black Disenfranchisement

As the Trump campaign attempts to put Republican Presidential nominee Donald Trump's racist, conspiratorial claims about President Obama's birthplace to rest, it's important to remember that Fox News and Fox Business helped lay the groundwork for Trump's birtherism by giving him a platform to promote his birther beliefs -- which some Fox hosts, analysts, and contributors embraced.
A slew of media critics and commentators shamed cable news networks for being "played" into providing free live coverage of a campaign event for Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump. After Trump teased a "major announcement," cable news networks provided wall-to-wall coverage in anticipation that Trump would address criticism over his role in pushing conspiracy theories that President Obama was not born in the U.S. Trump's mere seconds-long statement "came only after a lengthy campaign event featuring military officers and award winners who have endorsed him," turning it into "a de facto commercial for the GOP candidate."

Right-wing media are criticizing President Obama for not visiting Louisiana following widespread flooding, saying "the feeling is, does [Obama] really even … care" and attacking him for not ending his "golfing vacation," ignoring the fact that Louisiana Gov. John Bel Edwards has publicly requested that Obama not visit due to fear it would drain state resources.
Sean Hannity: "I Would Argue He Found The Secret Sauce, And He's Still Trump Being Trump"
Sean Hannity hosted Trump campaign manager Kellyanne Conway to praise Donald Trump's use of a teleprompter during a rally in Charlotte, North Carolina, despite Hannity's past obsession with criticizing President Barack Obama's use of a teleprompter.
Hannity has spent years obsessively attacking President Obama's use of a teleprompter to give speeches. He has claimed that Obama "has a teleprompter on each side of the bed when he goes to sleep every night, if he doesn't actually put it in the bed" adding "most Americans have figured out that you take away that teleprompter, he's in trouble."
Speaking to Conway, Hannity declared, "I like [Trump] on prompter myself, my own personal preference," adding Trump's usage of a teleprompter indicated "he found the secret sauce, and he's still Trump being Trump":
SEAN HANNITY (HOST): Let me ask you this. He gave two speeches, this is what I -- this is what I think is the secret sauce.
KELLYANNE CONWAY: Yes.
HANNITY: He only talked about Hillary and Obama, he was on prompter. I like him on prompter myself, my own personal preference. But he stayed on a very powerful Donald Trump message. It was totally him, and he made very powerful points, but he outlined the failures and offered solutions.
Former New York City mayor and Trump supporter Rudy Giuliani falsely claimed that in the "eight years before Obama came along, we didn't have any successful radical Islamic terrorist attack in the United States," pushing a false right-wing media narrative that there were no terror attacks during the Bush administration.

UPDATE: Blitzer Later Corrected Pierson's Claim
CNN's Wolf Blitzer allowed Trump spokesperson Katrina Pierson to falsely blame President Obama for "chang[ing] the rules of engagements" before the death of Capt. Humayun Khan on June 8, 2004, during Operation Iraqi Freedom.
After allowing Pierson to falsely claim that "it was under Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton that changed the rules of engagements that probably cost [Humayun Khan] his life," Blitzer failed to inform viewers that Barack Obama wasn't President in 2004 and was first sworn in as a U.S. Senator on January 4, 2005. From the August 2 edition of CNN's The Situation Room:
WOLF BLITZER (HOST): Wasn't he disrespectful, though, to that Gold Star family?
KATRINA PIERSON: Disrespectful by defending himself? He didn't say anything about the son. In fact, he honored his service. The only thing he said, Wolf, is basically "This man knows nothing about me, why is he criticizing me?" How is that an attack?
BLITZER: Well, most people would have just said "You know what? This family has lost a son, a hero, fought on the battle, prevented some of his fellow soldiers from dying by going into that suicide- that car bombing, if you will. I am not going to get into a discussion, a back and forth. I praise this family. I praise the son," and move on. He didn't have to go back and forth and respond to all of the statements made by the father.
PIERSON: But surely you can understand -- but surely you can understand the confusion, considering how Donald Trump never voted for the Iraq war. Hillary Clinton did. And then she didn't support the troops to have what they need.
It was under Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton that changed the rules of engagements, that probably cost his life. So, I don't understand why it is so hard to understand why Donald Trump was confused about why he was being held responsible for something he had nothing to do with, while Hillary Clinton had everything to do with.
BLITZER: Katrina Pierson, as usual, thank you so much for joining us.
UPDATE: Blitzer fact-checked Pierson's bizarre claim in a follow-up segment, noting that Capt. Khan died in Iraq "five years before President Obama took office."

Environment and transport ministries open licitation on 29 lithium ion battery cars, which will be put into rotation over the course of 2014.
Santiago will soon have its first fleet of electric taxis, after two government ministries teamed up with a major power supplier to buy the patent for the Chinese-made cars.
The city's geographic location between two mountain chains and high-population density make smog and congestion major problems for the more than six million people who call it home. Local health authorities frequently issue health alerts due to dangerous levels of air pollution.
The new fleet of 29 BYE e6 taxis will run completely on electricity with the use of a lithium ion battery and will not only release no fumes, they will also be virtually noiseless.
In a press conference at Paseo Bulnes Wednesday morning Environment Minister María Ignacia Benítez and Transport Minister Pedro Pablo Errázuriz, opened the initIative for licitación.
"Today we are happy to see entrepreneurs and businesses which are willing to help in the [air] decontamination — now we have new vehicles which will contribute to that cause," Errázuriz said.
Also present was Compañía Chilena de Electricidad (Chilectra) CEO Cristián Fierro, whose company has already opened ten stations to recharge the cars batteries across the capital, a figure it hopes to double over the course of the year.
Marcelo Fernández, head of the Environment Ministry's Air Quality Division, told The Santiago Times the taxis won't be operational for another couple months, but the ministry hopes to put a total of 29 into rotation by the end of 2014. Nineteen of the cars will be "basic," meaning they will function much like regular taxis — circulating the city looking for passengers — and 10 will be "executive" taxis which are contracted for specific trips.
In an interview with CNN Chile on Thursday, Chilectra's Environmental and Innovations Manager Jean Paul Zalaquett said that for drivers already considering obtaining an electric taxi, Chilectra would be able to install a charging station in their home for their new vehicle.
Zalaquett claimed that driving roughly 300 miles in one of the BYD e6 electric taxis would cost a driver about US$23, compared to the approximately US$60 for the same distance in a conventional vehicle.
The electric fleet will be differentiated from regular taxis by white and green paint jobs.

WEBSTER — Police were led on a wild high-speed chase Friday morning. Police responded to a car burglary call at the Academy Sporting Goods store at NASA Parkway and Interstate 45 at about 9:23 a.m.
When police found a white truck believed to be driven by the burglary suspect, the driver took off leading officers on a lengthy chase that at times reached 100 mph. During the pursuit the driver crashed into several vehicles, police said. A driver who was struck at an intersection in Missouri City was transported to the hospital with minor injuries.

RELEASE: House Majority Appropriations Bill Attacks the Other 99 Percent
Bill Guts Health, Education, and Workplace Support for Middle Class, Preserves Protections for Top 1 Percent
Contact: Katie Peters
Phone: 202.741.6285
Email: email@example.com
Washington D.C.—Today, the Center for American Progress issued a series of resources finding that the House Appropriation Bill represents yet another sweeping attack on health, education, and workplace support for middle-class Americans, while preserving protections for the privileged top 1 percent. Quietly released by conservatives in Congress last week, the assault on the other 99 percent was buried in 150 pages of legislation drafted within the Republican-controlled House Appropriations Committee.
At a time when unemployment is near record levels and middle-class incomes stagnate, the bill seeks to eliminate funding for job training and gut basic protections for workers that help ensure they are paid what they are owed. It would slash Pell Grant funding and protects the interests of big businesses by letting colleges (particularly for-profit ones) off the hook for their students' poor outcomes. And with U.S. poverty rates at a 17-year high, the legislation would slash energy assistance for the vulnerable. It also seeks to overturn policies that ensure all Americans have access to health care.
"Neither this nor other bills supported by the House majority address the unfair benefits that go to the top 1 percent, such as tax breaks for oil and gas companies and ultra-low tax rates for some millionaires," said David Madland, Director of the American Worker Project at the Center for American Progress. "In protests around the country, people are demanding to know what elected officials are doing for the bottom 99 percent of Americans. The answer coming out of the House of Representatives is exactly the opposite of what's needed."
The following CAP columns provide detailed information on the disastrous funding and policy choices made by the House majority for the coming fiscal year:

While the violence escalates in Israel and Gaza, a movement is taking hold that unites Jews, Muslims and others in a campaign for peace.
On Tuesday, a daylong fast is planned as part of a public effort to show unity in the fight against war and violence in the region.
Using the Twitter hashtag #HungryforPeace, the cause started in Israel and gained strength in England, promoted by Yachad, a U.K.-based pro-Israel, pro-peace group. Last weekend, it was announced in temples, mosques and churches in the U.S.
I've been representing Missouri on a Sentencing Project group on parole issues.

Catholic leaders in the Holy Land called for an end to the cycle of violence and criticized Israel's occupation of Palestinian territories and its collective punishment of Palestinians.
"Using the death of the three Israelis to exact collective punishment on the Palestinian people as a whole and on its legitimate desire to be free is a tragic exploitation of tragedy and promotes more violence and hatred," said a statement Tuesday from the Assembly of Catholic Ordinaries of the Holy Land.

Through the lens of disabled people
01 December 2005
Ha Noi, Viet Nam: With fashion shows, discussion panels, music performances, contests and more, this year's Beauty in Diversity day promises to provide great entertainment, while promoting equity and the participation of all people, especially those living with disabilities and HIV/AIDS.
This is the second annual Beauty in Diversity day to mark the joint recognition of World AIDS Day (1 December), International Day of Disabled Persons (3 December) and International Volunteer Day (5 December) on the same day. The event is dedicated to highlighting the economic, social and cultural contributions that those living with HIV/AIDS and with disabilities make to our society. At the same time, it will present the diversity of individuals who choose to volunteer to promote these ideals and to work for Viet Nam's development.
The event is only a few days after Vice President Truong My Hoa and Representatives of Central Party Commissions and the National Assembly met with self-help groups of people living with HIV/AIDS in a special effort to fight stigma and discrimination.
"Beauty in Diversity is for everyone and a great opportunity to celebrate diversity in voices, in appearance, in thought, in physical ability," said United Nations Resident Coordinator, Jordan Ryan. "All of us have something to contribute, and as this event shows, people living with HIV/AIDS and those living with disabilities can clearly offer a great deal to all of us.The involvement of volunteers is essential to create an active citizenry working to improve the lives of everyone."
Following last year's tremendous success that saw over 1000 people flood the grounds of Reunification Park, Beauty in Diversity 2005 is expecting that its programme of music, discussion, fashion, art and games, as well as information booths on the various organizations and causes represented, will attract even more people to learn about the contribution of those who are often left out or forgotten.
"This is a great chance for everyone, especially those living with HIV/AIDS and disabilities to meet their peers, to interact with each other and to share experiences about how to lead healthy and meaningful lives." said Mr. Nghiem Xuan Tue, Director of the National Coordinating Council on Disabilities (NCCD).
With UNV as the main sponsor of this year's event, international and national UN Volunteers will join other volunteers from self-help groups, youth organizations and clubs to help coordinate, run and work together to create a successful event.
Special features include a "Miss Beauty in Diversity" contest to challenge traditional views of what makes someone beautiful, and the "Special View" exhibition of photos by people with disabilities trained by UN Volunteers. This exhibition which is presented by the Disability Forum and the Viet Nam Artistic Photographers Association.

One morning, The Diesel is thinking how good he looks. As he passes by the quarry, he watches an old chimney being demolished. A large dust cloud then wafts towards The Diesel, covering him in thick dust. When, he arrives back at the yard, the other engines and even the Fat Controller have to chuckle at him!
- The Diesel
- Sir Topham Hatt
- Thomas (cameo)
- Percy (cameo)
- Duck (cameo)
- The Diesel says "Chuff, chuff!", but he is obviously a Diesel engine.

Included in the PDF: pattern for newborn, baby, toddler, and child hat.
ALSO included is a pattern for an attachable crocheted flower should you decided to add it on.
This pattern is perfect for a beginner to looming and is quick to make! All you need to know is how to cast on and do the basic ewrap stitch and purl stitch.
Gauge isn't important as the loom size will make it the correct circumference and you can adjust the length as needed.
** NOTE: My daughter is modeling the hat which is too small for her head but insisted on showing it off **
Gauge isn't important.

A dear friend of mine was visiting in MO and ran across an old man in a little shop that was loaded with vintage R/C stuff. She said I would have gone nuts in there and is probably right. She picked me up some 40 year old issues of RC Modeler magazine. She said she just got me four of them based on the cuties on the front , they were a dollar each.
Thumbing through these really tossed me back in time. A simpler time when there was no chaotic graphics and no www.whatever.com plastered all over the place. Each of these four mags have excellent 2-4 page thermal soaring articles featuring NEW sailplanes that some are still building today. There is an article describing the LSF, only 100 members at the time. The feel, smell and content of these old issues are very comforting and relaxing. She said he had stacks of these all in excellent condition. I have a contact in MO that will buy out the rest of them for me. I love to sit down with a nice cocktail and read through these and dream of the good old days...
Hey Don, who was the photographer listed for those covers? I wish the magazines would allow that type of cover shot again. Those are really well done.
Good day
Well for those on the east coast (PA.) it was a great day out. We hit 70 degress, sunny and not more then a light breeze. So I packed up a couple of planes and went for a fly, I could not beleive how clean the air was. no bumps or turbulance at all. Of course there was not a lot of lift either. Found a few small areas that extended my flight a little bit. But when I was just gliding down it seemed like the plane was just flying level, but it was slowing coming down. I am sure this was an effect of the clean air with no turbulance.
Well I flew my electra for a 30 min flight, Had about 1/2 a charge left in the pack when I came down.
Upon getting home I started to Winterize all my packs. This is the way I want to remeber gliding for the entire winter. I have to get ready for a vacation for the rest of the week, and by the time I get back I doubt it will be warm enough for me to enjoy going out flying.
Now for a question, I have been storing the electra in the garage which doubles as a work shop, While the wings look clean if you run your hand across them, they feel rough. There is a dust/dirt build up on the Monocoat. I have been meaning to clean it off, just have not gotten to it. How much does this effect flight? Its nothing you can see just feel.
I would tend to think that if you can feel it the air can too. I'd be willing to bet this is the result of pollen build up over the years. Many of the cedar and pine pollens have a sticky sap that helps them stick to what they want to stick to and everything else as well.

Top score Don, an excellent resource to turn to when the weather goes bad and you can't fly. Or get sick of work.
Highflyer, I'd best let the Dark Lord answer your question on the merits of wing surface cleanliness.
You want these things like a baby's bottom or the skin on your fav main sqeeze, the smoother the better for anything that goes through the air.
Slipperey is the deal as each little bump - nook or cranny grabs some air, and they all add up.

Hey DW
Out here in Jollywood in the 50's there was a great old hobby shop owned by the actor Reginold Denny and was it great to brouse in there, lots of U control - free flights - boats - motors and train stuff too.
What a great find with those early magazines.
G Don
Hey Dw,
Here's an old magazine also. I found it not to long ago.
Wow,how Model Aviation Magazine has changed over the years.
The girl on the cover is my wife. Not to give my Old Age away,that picture was taken at the 1964 California Championships.
At low Reynolds numbers, the flow would rather be laminar and separated than turbulent and attached. Turbulent and attached has significantly less drag than separated flow.
First try with FPW: We Gots Bugs!
As promised, I'm reporting back with first results of my FPW. The short of it, try one was a comedy of errors. But I did learn a few things and will make another go at it in a day or two. It's got some bugs but I do think it will work in the end. details and photos in my Thermic 72 build thread. That would be here - http://www.rcgroups.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1535361 for those of you that were negligent and didn't bookmark it.
There was a couple different photogs on these, fellows named Tom Roe and Ed Okie. It's funny, the credits say, for example, Ektachrome transparency by Tom Roe .
Where you at? I was looking back on all the pics in the thread the other day and found the one with you and your watermelon cocktail . I thought, I'll bet Stevers land is starting to warm up a bit. Just about time to start brewing those up again, hey . I haven't tried it yet cause but it sure looks tasty.
That is so freakin cool! Was she a model or is she a pilot? Is she receiving that award? That needs to be in glass either way.
I remember about this same time period as these mags, I was only about 11, there was only one LHS that I can remember. It was in Irving here and was called Mal's Hobby Shop next to the old Irving Theater. I bought all my Guillows models and supplies there. About 1974 or so, they put in a slot car track and I got into that too. Sponge rubber tires and "Sticky Stuff" goop to help them stick to the track cause they went from zero to 9 million MPH in 24" . I miss those days...
GDon, IIRC wasn't Reginald Denny's hobby shop where Marlyin Monroe was discovered? I recall a photo of her with dark hair that was taken in a hobby shop and pretty sure it was his. I think she worked there. Also I seem to recall a story where he (Mr. Denny) was invloved in some very early military drone work.
OK, edit: I just read a brief bio on MM on Wiki. I KNOW I read something about her, Reginald Denny and model airplanes somewhere. She did work in an aircraft factory at one time though. Easily confused anymore I guess, especially when my two favorite subjects, model airplanes and gorgeous blondes, get mixed.

The same tribe, the Xinane, which had had no contact with the outside world appeared in remarkable footage earlier this year showing them aiming bows and arrows at a plane flying over their jungle home.
But yesterday, after government officials sent to protect them from armed drug traffickers were forced to abandon their post and flee, it was not known where the families were.
It highlights new threats to remote tribes across South America.
Staff at Brazil's government-run national Indian foundation, Funai, said men from a paramilitary faction from Peru, armed with rifles and machine guns, entered Brazilian territory late last week and surrounded a cut-off jungle post.
A small group of researchers from Funai used the outpost, in Brazil's Acre state, on its western border with Peru, to study and protect isolated indigenous tribes.
The armed men were most certainly trying to kill Indians in the area to make way for illegal logging, or clear new cocaine trafficking routes through the forest from Peru, said FunaiI.
"This is extremely distressing news," says Stephen Corry, from Survival International, an indigenous tribes rights group based in Britain. "There is no knowing how many tribal peoples the drugs trade has wiped out in the past, but all possible measures should be taken to stop it happening again."
The Funai staff monitoring the tribe fled and the traffickers ransacked their jungle camp before Brazilian police back-up could reach the area.
Police have since retaken control of the base and arrested one man, named as Joaquim Fadista.
But officials are particularly worried at finding an arrow head in one of the trafficker's abandoned backpacks.
"Arrows are like the identity card of uncontacted Indians," said Funai's Carlos Travassos, who heads its of the isolated Indians division. "We think the Peruvians made the Indians flee…We are more concerned than ever," he told Christian Science Monitor. This could be one of the biggest blows in decades to the work of protecting isolated Indians."
Funai sent an official to the area but still don't know the whereabouts of the tribe and it is not known if they are safe. Officials hope they fled the commotion and the Xinane families are safe. It is hoping they fled to seek refuge deeper in the rainforest.
The Xinane were under the spotlight at the start of this year when a BBC nature programme showed footage of the clearly frightened Indians pointing bows and arrows the plane flying overhead.

What is individual freedom?
In a discussion a few days ago a gentleman asked me, "what is individual freedom?" It really caused me pause for a moment, for I, like most Americans, have always taken it for granted. Since being born and raised in America, I have never personally experienced government oppression, as have so many billions of people all over this world. So I began a search to answer for myself the real meaning of INDIVIDUAL FREEDOM, and also Is America an exceptional country because of it? Barack Obama said publicly he does not believe it is. Hearing a president of the United States make that statement struck me like a bolt of lightning.
I learned in my search, of all the things America is about, that INDIVIDUAL FREEDOM is our most precious and greatest treasure. INDIVIDUAL FREEDOM is the absence of restraint on our ability to think and act for ourselves. There is freedom of and freedom from. Being free from government oppression and regulation has only one meaning, INDIVIDUAL FREEDOM, and it automactically carries with it INDIVIDUAL RESPONSIBILITY. I believe very strongly in the power of the INDIVIDUAL. Freedom is the capacity for self-determination. It is not cast in stone to forever be but it is a condition, and conditions can change. INDIVIDUAL FREEDOM can grow and expand, but it can also shrink and disappear. INDIVIDUAL FREEDOM will only be preserved as long as there is devotion to freedom expressed in the hearts and actions of the people of America. President Bush said a few years ago, "History moves toward freedom because the desire for freedom is written in every human heart."
In his address at the Gettysburg National Cemetery, president Lincoln declared "It is for us the living to be dedicated here to the unfinished work which they who fought here have thus so nobly advanced." That unfinished work for which so many American soldiers willingly go to the battle of war and which so many have given the full measure of devotion is the cause of The United States of America as an exceptional country of INDIVIDUAL FREEDOM. I here declare to you, that work will never be finished.
Barack Obama campaigned on "fundamental change in America." Had he given us the details of what he meant by that, I seriously doubt he would have been elected. Americans were not looking to change INDIVIDUAL FREEDOM for subjugation to an expanding Federal government with more and more regulation of almost every aspect of our lives. We have become a strong an exceptional nation through the self reliance of INDIVIDUAL FREEDOM.
Our great nation is a Representative Republic not one of Socialism. Americans every where, we had better get involved and take a stand against government control of our lives. Now is not the time to be silent as Barrack Obama attempts to dismantle this great country and bring it down to a lower level of the countries of Europe. Now is the time to devote ourselves and be resolved to defend our INDIVIDUAL FREEDOM. He does not believe we are an exceptional nation. I think you, like I, believe we are.

TV News last night. Buffett and CEO Google have sent millions of dollars as a tax dodge to Bermuda.
As investors, I dislike the secrecy, the law being broken, to stop paying taxes to help the USA in this bad economy. 'HIDE' the funds instead of allowing loyal investors to earn a dividend. Whate very WRONG with this picture?
I guess you don't get it!
What dividend, ever heard of Capital gains?
We are taking about it, what is secret? What law is being broken? No one is required to pay takes on every dollar. the taxes laws are written in DC and other operate within those laws.
once again what tax law was broken?

Large crowd gathers for annual Polar Bear Plunge in Indiana
Some very brave people endured bone-chilling conditions in Southern Indiana on Saturday morning for the annual Polar Bear Plunge.
A large crowd gathered at Deam Lake, near Borden, for the event.
Wave after wave of teams hit the frigid water for a good cause. Each participant raised at least $75, with proceeds going to help Special Olympians with their training and competitions.
Matt Hobson said the plunge was not a pleasant experience.
"I wasn't expecting it to be this cold, as it was. It's painful," Hobson said.
It was below freezing when the event got underway.
The Louisville Polar Bear Plunge takes place next Saturday at the Tumbleweed on River Road.

Symantec Enterprise Vault Storage Management for Product Details
With Symantec Enterprise Vault, you can eliminate quotas and message size restrictions. Give your users a mailbox of virtually unlimited size while controlling the growth of storage resources and keeping Exchange at predictable levels. Admin-defined policies automatically archive individual mailbox email and attachments out of Exchange and into online Symantec Enterprise Vault stores based on age and/or quota. Users have a transparent Outlook experience that also includes the ability manage live, legacy and archived email right from within Outlook with or, without shortcuts, whether offline or, on. Eliminate mailbox quotas and the need for PST without taking away that familiar user experience. This enables Exchange to focus on the dynamic handling of newer information while Symantec Enterprise Vault software acts as a long-term repository for older information. Exchange Server performance is dramatically improved, and users can enjoy instant access to their email without the associated cost and management issues.
Symantec Buying Programs are designed to streamline the purchase of Symantec security and availability software as well as support and maintenance services. Aligned to a variety of business requirements, Symantec Buying Programs offer enterprise customers the ability to earn greater discounts and to effectively track and manage software licenses.
The Symantec Government Buying Program helps streamline the way government agencies purchase Symantec products, requiring no contract and only a minimal number of licenses. The program simplifies ordering and administration processes, allows agencies to consolidate their buying power to earn attractive discounts and helps track licenses, purchases, and return on investment.
To procure software products through the Symantec Government Program, customers simply purchase a media pack and the number of licenses they need online or from a Symantec partner. Customers will then receive a license certificate that confirms their purchase and the terms and conditions for using the software. There's no need for a signed contract or legal review.
