Hey guys, long time no see! Obviously, some time has passed since our last update. Liminal Space is still here, and we are getting back into the swing of things. We've had a bit of a break, as both Luke and myself (George) took time to pursue other ventures (school, JOBS!, family, etc…). We are looking forward to 2015 and the 2015-16 season, which is currently in the planning stage. While we aren't quite ready to let any cats out of the bag with regards to the plans, I can say that we are extremely excited about the programming so far. We'll share details as they solidify!
In the meantime, we are preparing for a concert in late March for the Houston Composers Salon. Houston Composers Salon is a coalition of sorts, aimed at presenting an outlet for locally-based composers. It has been a fun place for composers to present new works in an environment that is both supportive and educational. In the past, composers and audience members were encouraged to provide feedback and discussion about pieces on the program. While performances have been a bit more formal in recent concerts, the feeling is still one of being among friends. On the March 22nd concert, we'll be performing two new works at the Cullen Hall at the University of St. Thomas. Composers Chapman Welch and Charles Halka have each composed pieces for us, as part of our New Music Initiative. We're really looking forward to premiering them at the Composers Salon. The concert starts at 6:00 pm. We hope to see you there!

Last week, Roosevelt County deputies and homeland security agents confiscated more than $15,000 worth of high-grade marijuana from the plane.
A K-9 unit helped detect the drugs, which were likely coming in from California.
Aside from taking the drugs, authorities also seized a plane, which is valued around $300,000.

Juneau Announces Teaching Fields Eligible for Student Loan Repayment Assistance
Thursday, November 19, 2009
by Jessica Rhoades
Superintendent Juneau Announces Teaching Fields Eligible for Student Loan Repayment Assistance
HELENA, Mont. –– The Montana Board of Public Education has adopted recommendations from the Office of Public Instruction identifying 10 education fields facing critical teacher shortages in Montana. Teachers who work in schools that are impacted by educator shortages in the identified fields will be eligible for up to $3,000 in student loan assistance for up to four years. The program is targeted at schools facing rural isolation, economic disadvantage, and low student achievement.
"Identifying these shortage areas helps us recruit the right people for the right places," said Denise Juneau, Montana Superintendent of Public Instruction. "It is important that we do what we can to keep great teachers here in Montana so they can inspire our young leaders and help build a brighter future."
To qualify for loan assistance an educator must be:
- A full–time educator holding a valid educator license with an endorsement in an impacted subject area or a licensed professional providing services to students in a school district, an education cooperative, the Montana School for the Deaf and Blind, the Montana Youth Challenge Program or a state youth correctional facility.
- Teaching in an impacted school. These schools tend to be rural and isolated, have a higher percentage of economically disadvantaged students, and/or have greater challenges in closing the achievement gap. A list of qualifying schools is available at: http://opi.mt.gov/PDF/Supt/Impacted_School_Score.pdf
- Teaching in an impacted academic area. These areas are Career and Technical Education, Music, Special Education, Mathematics, Speech/Language Pathologist, Science, World Languages, School Counselor, Library Media, and Art.

Is anyone else using netbackup to backup clearcase vobs? I am
trying the following procedure:
- lock the vobs
- mount a vxfs snapshot of the vob fs
- unlock the vobs
- backup the snapshot fs
- unmount the vxfs snapshot
I tried this at one point and ended up corrupting my vob fs somehow.
Is anyone doing something similar to this?
Also, the bpend_notify script runs before the server writes complete,
so I can't do the snapshot unmount from here. Any hints on how I can
trigger the unmount when the backup actually finishes?

Pinterest inspires yet again. I still did the gradient glitter tips because I just can't get enough of them!! This time, I did a neon green accent nail with more glitter galore. Take a looksie…
I used Sinful Colors 'Savage' as the blue base, Duri Cosmetics 'Toxic' as the neon green base, Sinful Colors 'Call You Later' for the glitter and Wet 'n Wild Wild Shine top coat.
The process is very similar to the purple gradient glitter tips that I did a few weeks ago, except skip the accent nail. On that one, just do a few full coats of glitter.
Are you gonna try it?

Dennis Linde (March 18, 1943 – December 22, 2006) was an American singer and songwriter whose work was primarily in country music.
He is best known for writing the 1972 Elvis Presley hit, "Burning Love". Presley performed the song live a few times, but often had trouble with the lyrics and soon pulled it from his playlist, although he did perform it during his famous show Aloha from Hawaii. Dennis Linde wrote numerous hit songs for mainly country music singers, beginning with hits for Roger Miller and Roy Drusky in 1970. In 2000, his song for the Dixie Chicks, "Goodbye Earl", stirred some controversy for its take on spousal abuse. Linde also wrote tunes that were recorded by Tanya Tucker, Gary Morris, Don Williams, The Judds, Alan Jackson, Mark Chesnutt and Garth Brooks, among several other acts. He also wrote two songs for the film Grease 2: "Cool Rider" and "Reproduction."
Although Linde was the sole writer of most of his songs, he occasionally collaborated with the likes of country artist Mel McDaniel and Nashville songwriter Bob DiPiero.
He was known as one of the more reclusive figures on the Nashville scene, rarely attending industry events and preferring not to be photographed or interviewed. Nashville manager Scott Siman described him as a "mystery man," explaining, "If you ever saw Dennis Linde it was amazing, because you didn't get that opportunity very often."[1]
In 2001, Linde was inducted into the Nashville Songwriters Hall of Fame.[2]
Linde died of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis at Vanderbilt University Medical Center at the age of 63.[1]

|Dying in Defense of Land in Mexico
|Written by Maria Sanchez
|Friday, 06 April 2012 09:28
Tucked between sand dunes and the Pacific Ocean, perched on a small hill, is Xayakalan, home to members of the indigenous community, Santa Maria Ostula. Here, the sound of waves hitting the shore mixes with the cries of children playing among the wooden huts. Against this beautiful backdrop, a group of Mexican Nahua people are fighting to keep control of their land. The cost has been high.
"It was a family problem," a man in his late fifties said.
"It was over an argument," said one woman.

According to data from the World Health Organisation, 11.7% of children in Rwanda were underweight during the period 2005–2012. This represents a significant decrease from 1990–1995, when 24.3% of children were underweight. Stunting in young children has also decreased, affecting 44% of under-fives in 2005–2012 compared with 52% previously.
Nutrition experts believe that this remarkable success in reducing child hunger in the country can in large part be attributed to the proactive and home-grown approach of the Rwandan government. This approach has included the scaling up of community nutrition programmes in all 30 of the country's districts, where local people have been involved in the process.
Rather than imposing a donor- or government-led solution to nutrition problems, Rwanda's programme has drawn in locals to assist in providing solutions. Each village has been encouraged to come up with its own approaches to tackling malnutrition, while central government merely plays a monitoring and coordinating role.
Local solutions
So for example, in some Rwandan districts, communal grain reserves have been set up. Each household in the area gives at least 20% of their harvest to these stores in a good season, so that grain can be given out through lean times. In other areas, villagers have expanded vegetable gardens and shared information about which crops and methods have worked best.
The emphasis for improving the food supply in Rwanda has been on finding solutions with local participants. This means that communities have been involved in the process, as well as aid agencies, academics and government officials.
Experts would like to see this successful Rwandan approach used in other African countries. They would also like to see more emphasis on establishing research priorities from within developing countries in Africa, rather than from donor countries. Speaking to the news agency IRIN, an EU coordinator for the 'Sustainable nutrition research' compares Rwanda's progress to other African countries, such as Benin, where "despite enormous amounts of money spent on nutrition research and interventions, malnutrition rates have not fallen". Looking at Rwanda, the answer, many now believe, is to partner with and consult local communities in Africa, rather than simply foisting solutions from outside, however well-intentioned these may be.
Since 1978, SOS Children has provided care for the most vulnerable children in Rwanda. Today, we provide a loving home for children who have lost their parents in four key locations across the country. Find out more about our work in Rwanda.

WASHINGTON (AP) - Thousands of chanting women marched on Sunday through downtown past the World Bank and the International Monetary Fund in a protest against world poverty and the mistreatment of women.
Marchers, whose circular route began on the grassy Ellipse across from the White House, chanted in a cacophony of languages their support for equal rights for women and their opposition to domestic violence.
Demonstrators shouted "Shame!" as they passed the side-by-side buildings of the IMF and the World Bank, the main lending institutions for poor countries. Activists in a major new movement against globally based economics contend the institutions' lending policies unfairly discriminate against the poor.
In front of the World Bank, some women got into a shouting match with four men protesting the event with anti-gay and anti-lesbian placards. "Submit to your husbands, you rebels," Ruben Israel, 36, of Los Angeles, yelled at the marchers through a bullhorn.
The Washington rally, which brought women from around the world, was a culminating event of the World March of Women 2000, which began in March in Geneva.
The movement's international delegation planned to meet Monday with IMF and World Bank officials to seek greater debt relief and improved lending for poor countries. The same group will meet with U.N. Secretary General Kofi Annan on Tuesday to present him with petitions signed by 2 million people seeking an end to violence against women.
"This march is against the champions of patriarchy that deny the human, democratic and social welfare of women," said Ramesh Sepehrrad, spokeswoman for the National Committee of Women for a Democratic Iran.
Other speakers from the United States had a political focus.

Sean Highkin of USA Today: "The 2012-13 Thunder replicated the formula of their 2012 Finals run by sliding Kevin Martin into Harden's sixth-man role. They finished the year with the second-best record in the West and appeared to be the favorites for a repeat Finals berth until Westbrook went down with a knee injury in the first round. When Martin left for the Minnesota Timberwolves this summer, they didn't sign an obvious replacement. As it turns out, they didn't need to. Third-year point guard Reggie Jackson is blossoming in a bench role, and second-year guard Jeremy Lamb, a key piece in the Harden deal, has improved at both ends of the floor after spending most of last season in the D-League. What this Thunder team lacks in a clear go-to scorer off the bench they make up for in depth."
Anthony Slater: "Following his 17-point, 10-rebound breakout in Detroit early last month, Steven Adams tailed off a bit. His production, impact and minutes dwindled over the next couple weeks. But as of late, with his role still somewhat limited, Adams is back to giving the Thunder great minutes. I thought his activity in brief spurts on Tuesday was huge. He only got 11 minutes, the lowest among Thunder players who saw the floor, but he was impactful for that entire stretch. Defensively, he clogged the lane, ripped down four rebounds and blocked two Paul Millsap shots (with one erased by a questionable foul). And offensively, he flashed that unique touch around the rim, floating in a contested hook and rolling in a lay-in off a tough catch. Moving forward, Brooks should find him more minutes for him in different pockets of the game. His play has warranted it."
Is Westbrook an elite defensive point guard?
Justin Farrar of Deadspin has put Perk on the Sh*t List: "If you're still not convinced, take your cues from Thunder GM Sam Presti. Hours before dealing Harden to Houston for one year of Kevin Martin and a grab bag of picks, Presti was praying Harden would accept a four-year, $52 million deal—a deal that would've paid him even more than the just-extended Serge Ibaka, and a deal that would've banished their luxury-tax-avoidance plans to the land of wind and ghosts. Meanwhile, Kendrick Perkins got his deal because a few CBA quirks allowed the Thunder not to hand Jeff Green a jersey anymore. Of course, at the time, Perk's game looked more like a professional center's and less like what happened when someone got bored of NBA 2k14 and left the Xbox controller upside down on the floor, but nevertheless: Presti wanted Harden. He settled for Perkins."
(Quite a few things that are a little off in there, but still, a pretty fun read.)

Buzz Book
By Bruce Wagner
The Chrysanthemum Palace is full of daring language that veers between being wickedly funny and just plain wicked. Nobody writes more knowingly about Hollywood than Wagner, a Beverly Hills High alum who was once married to actress Rebecca De Mornay. Wagner is a multitasker—scripts, TV pilots and novels—whose career took off after Wild Palms, his noir-ish cartoon strip, appeared in Details magazine. Here he flaunts his insider status in off-the-cuff wordplay (L.A. has "a great sense of rumor") and extended riffs on screen-writing and a monster television series called Starwatch. The book is narrated by Bertie Kohn, the 38-year-old son of Starwatch's creator; he floats around the edges of "the industry" both exploiting and disdaining his father's lowbrow success. So when Bertie's childhood friend Clea, the daughter of a famous actress, hooks up with Thad, son of a celebrated novelist, Bertie observes the ensuing train wreck with the empathy of a fellow celebrity child. All three offspring have parlayed their name recognition into minor acting careers, which have devolved into roles on Starwatch, and the scenes on the set are delicious Trekkie satires. The Oedipal plot turns are sometimes overwrought, but the book sustains its catty energy with an endless string of hip cultural asides about everyone from Primo Levi to Charlie Rose. Some of the swipes at bestselling authors—Alice Sebold in particular—cross the line from clever to cruel. Like Thad, its most magnetic character, Chrysanthemum Palace is "raw and cultured, cultivated and kitschy" and great fun.
NOVELBy Francine Prose
In Prose's fiction, no one is safe: Her subject is human weakness, and her approach is no-holds-barred. Her new novel is the best kind of social satire: razor-sharp, funny and merciless. Vincent Nolan, 32, an ex-skinhead sporting SS tattoos, walks into the Manhattan offices of World Brotherhood Watch, a human rights foundation headed by Holocaust survivor Meyer Maslow, and declares, "I want to help you guys save guys like me from becoming guys like me." Meyer, whose commitment to changing "one heart at a time" doesn't extend to having neo-Nazis as houseguests, sends Vincent home with his chief fund-raiser, Bonnie Kalen, a single mom with two sons. Vincent quickly becomes the foundation's poster boy, "Mr. Changed Man," and the darling of self-congratulatory liberal donors. Prose skewers the publicity circus with relish but has even more fun exposing her characters' insecurities—the snark, wimp or egomaniac within. Whether Vincent has truly changed remains an open question, but Prose leaves no doubt that the fragile impulse to do good is all too easily overwhelmed by vanity.
By Jose Canseco
During a 16-year career, supersize slugger Jose Canseco belted 462 homers—but his most memorable shots may be those he takes in this controversial diss-and-tell. Recounting his own journey from dorky teen to MVP and Madonna boy toy, Canseco, 40—now unapologetic about a "juice" habit he denied during his playing days—opens the clubhouse door on what he contends was rampant use of anabolic steroids and human growth hormone while Major League Baseball looked the other way. Claiming to have injected steroids with ex-teammates including home run king Mark McGwire and Jason Giambi—who have denied his charges—Canseco says, "the challenge is to find a top player who hasn't [used steroids]." It's easy to write off Juiced as a form of 'roid rage, a final swing for the fences by a has-been. Tougher to dismiss are the few more credible sources who have so far come forward in support of some of Canseco's claims, including one FBI agent. Or, truth be told, our own eyes.
By Judy Budnitz
Village Voice cartoonist Judy Budnitz returns to her quirky roots with this collection of short stories set in warped landscapes where reality shape-shifts in unexpected ways. Her best stories challenge the bond between mother and child: In "Where We Come From," a pregnant woman hoping to sneak into the U.S. gestates her baby for years, until she resembles a spider with "limbs like sticks." When she finally makes it, she delivers a walking, talking "nice Big American baby" only to lose him as she is sent back across the border alone. In "Miracle," a white man and his white wife are shocked when a blue-eyed, golden haired son the color of obsidian emerges from her womb. The father blames her cravings for "chocolate and burnt toast," but the mother cherishes her changeling until his skin becomes perfectly pink. Budnitz's surreal tales leave us questioning the nature of familial love; with each curious twist, the reader is left a little uncomfortable—and wanting to read more.
SHORT STORIESThe Hopes of Snakes In her new book The Hopes of Snakes & Other Tales from the Urban Landscape, journalist Lisa Couturier reflects on the relationship between city dwellers and the wild things who are their sometimes-unseen companions.
•[In a peregrine falcon nest atop a Manhattan skyscraper, the author and a naturalist found] a piece of wing from a cedar waxwing, regurgitated pellets of bones and feathers, a blue jay's head and an unidentifiable piece of another bird. A few peregrine feathers blew out...destined for the city streets, where they would be mistaken for pigeon feathers, if they were noticed at all.
•Even as they chase one another, playfully, as though popping out from under dirty tissues is popping out from under golden leaves of corn, [subway mice] are on alert for the trains...they sense oncoming trains much before trains are seen by lesser mortals.
•A park naturalist [in Maryland] found a black rat snake on a rock. The snake had been poked with dozens of pins, including one in the snake's eye, which had shriveled away. The naturalist told me of his plans to rehabilitate the snake, though he was worried. If he released a one-eyed snake it would be an easier target for more abuse. I could tell it made him sad. He said, "Did you know snakes don't cry?"

Police were called around 10 a.m. to the 100 block of East Piper for two suspicious subjects walking around a home in the neighborhood and located a 47-year-old man and 48-year-old woman.
An officer discovered each subject had a misdemeanor warrants out of Flint courts -- the male out of 68th District Court and the female out of 67th District Court. It was not stated in the report what the warrants were for on each person.
The woman and man were transported to the police station where they were booked and lodged in the Flint City Lockup.

Bridgman/Packer present innovative dance show at Erie Art Museum
The canvasses of American artist Edward Hopper exist in a place out of time. With solitary figures in haunted, lonely settings, they breathe a heavy atmosphere of stoic fatalism. Choreographers looking for inspiration could hardly pick a less fruitful source.
Don't tell that to Art Bridgman and Myrna Packer, the New York-based Guggenheim fellows in choreography whose Hopper-inspired "Voyeur" will receive three performances on Saturday.
"What called to us is how many of his characters are seen through windows or doorways, often partially, and we get a glimpse of a private life," Packer said. "You get the feeling that the viewer is a voyeur of a private moment."
To create the illusion, Bridgman and Packer designed a set with windows and a doorway through which the audience glimpses the cast.
Yes, cast. Though Bridgman and Packer are the only dancers involved in the production, an innovative system of video projections of their live performance will create the illusion of a corps de ballet.
They call it "video partnering." Using the technique, Packer said, "I not only dance with Art, but also with his video image and my video image."
Bridgman added, "People can see us live, see us projected into the footage and we're also (prerecorded) in some of these scenes, so we're trying to play with the notion of what is live and what is prerecorded."
Audience members interested in the technique are encouraged to step into the set before the performances where they, too, will be projected onto the set.
"They're captured, not recorded," Packer said. "Some of them are watching and being watched, and when they're projected into the set, they can watch themselves being watched."
That, of course, is the point of a work titled "Voyeur."
"It helps us in what we want to say, which (involves) issues of identity and relationship," Packer said. "This piece was a way to enter Hopper's world, but in our own form of expression. We were not interested in staging the paintings."

The last time Old Bridge walked off the field in Monroe, it appeared to be on the right path.
Morale was high after a summer of hard work seemed to be paying off, as the team had just upended a perennially strong Jackson squad in its season opener at the GMC-Shore Conference Shootout.
But about a week later, Old Bridge found out that the triumph would be erased by the NJSIAA, which ruled that Old Bridge had used an ineligible player. The sanction forced Old Bridge to forfeit two games, and then after losing three more, the Middlesex County school was off to an 0-5 start.
After a return trip to Monroe yesterday, Old Bridge walked off the field with a good feeling once again -- and this time, it expects that feeling to last.
Dan Baron provided the uplifting moment when the senior knocked in the game-winning goal in the 54th minute, snapping a tie lifting Old Bridge to a 3-2 victory over Monroe.
The defense, anchored by keeper Chris Botros, held on and survived a final-minute free kick to help Old Bridge (5-7) improve its record to 4-3 in the Greater Middlesex Conference-Red Division.
"Things haven't worked out for us this season," Old Bridge senior Bhairav Mehta said. "It's just nice when the things that matter work out for you."
Mehta provided Old Bridge a game-tying score in the 30th minute when the senior midfielder sent a cross over Monroe's defenders and to the foot of Hazem Miawad.
Unselfish play is preached by Old Bridge.
"There's only one thing we say in our huddle, and its 'Don't play for yourself, play for each other,'" Mehta said. "We talk about that play consistently because our cross is always on, we see it and it worked to perfection that time."
Monroe scored the first goal when Mike Mischler converted a free kick from just outside the 18-yard box. The senior midfielder hit a shot to the right of Old Bridge's wall that skipped into the goal. Two minutes later, Miawad tied the game.
Old Bridge gave itself a 2-1 lead in the second half when Peter Krzewinski crossed to Joe Aldorasi for a goal.
"The goal motivated us to do better," Krzewinski said. "It set us up for that third goal at the end. We lift our spirits up as a team and motivate each other to do better."
After Justin Thompson scored for Monroe to make it 2-2, Baron got the winner. But the game wasn't over, as Mischler had another free kick in the final minute from about the same spot, but it was stopped by Botros.
"If we could put this win in a bottle and keep it with us for two weeks, we'd definitely like that," Old Bridge coach Chris McGrath said.

The snow is out of Berks county but the recent storms have taken a toll on people's wallets.
At the same time, the spending was a much needed financial boost for some supermarkets in the area.
In Muhlenberg Township some shoppers say they spent hundreds of dollars because they just did not know how bad the storms were going to be.
One shopper, Maria Toner, spent over $200 dollars at the store. She said, "It was $250, yes, $250, just to make sure I was stocked up because I didn't want to come back out".
Kristen Huerta "got bread, eggs, milk, cereal, all the stuff, dinner to make for that day. It was horrible," she added.
For Dave Murphy, it was even more in terms of expenditure. He said he spent over $500 "because we like to store up, because we'd be afraid maybe things would get sold out."
Officials at Redner's in Muhlenberg Township said they noticed an increase in business during the snow falls and were glad for the extra boost in this tough economic times.
Mike Lehrer noted, "It's wonderful to be able to keep your business steady for your employees and let them know you're there and they can count on you."
Other stores in the area also noticed brisk business during the snowy days. Fine Fare said they experienced a 25% increase in sales, while Bravo supermarket said there was a small increase in shoppers before the snow hit.
It is a week many shoppers won't forget as it may take a little while before some can replace all the extra money spent during these snow storms. For some businesses however, Christmas came a little early.

Looking very similar to the Fizik Superlight, the Deda Mistral comes at a fraction of the price but works in a very similar way.
It's similar to the Fizik, so wasn't the most comfortable on test and where you pay a little less for the Deda you get a little less refinement.
The thin glue strip on the back isn't super tacky, but was a little easier than the Fizik to get a good wrap on the handlebars. For the money, it's a good budget option.

Skip to comments."My Message to Rick Santorum" Bob Grant (RINO Blog)
Posted on 03/23/2012 4:54:36 PM PDT by Politics4US
March 23, 2012
Not too long ago, I had asked a woman from Pennsylvania what she thought about Rick Santorum. Knowing that she was as conservative and as Republican as I am, I was surprised at her response. She said, He is the worst. Those of us who know him best have nothing but contempt for him. He is not an honest person and certainly would not hesitate to stab a fellow politician in the back. That was a few weeks ago, but I have learned what a tawdry character Santorum is. He is a jealous weasel who actually would rather see a fellow Republican defeated by the despicable Barack the Boastful.
Can you imagine he is actually one step away from campaigning for Obama?
(Excerpt) Read more at bobgrantonline.com ...
Bob Grant a RINO? You are insane!!!
Anyone who doesn't realize Santorum is a jealous little weasel (Bob Grant's words, not mine) was not paying attention to the debates, especially the early debates.
I grew up listening to him. Now he sounds senile.
Santorum long ago lost me with his attacks on Gingrich - while offering virtually nothing on the same order toward the current lawless President.
Why am I insane?
Actually, its Romniacs who seem to trash conservatives at every opportunity.
How did he win Iowa?
"I grew up listening to him. Now he sounds senile."
Yes he does.
Because Bob was fighting the good fight when you were still crapping in your diaper.
But he's a RINO now.
By default, by 8 total votes, out of a tiny population that has almost nothing in common with most folks in the country, after Newt had been carpet bombed.
They do, but that's not the question at hand.
Newt was carpet bombed by Romney, and that should have meant that Romney would win the caucus. You said that Santorum was jealous, but he won the primary.
You abject lack of logical skills are breathtaking. Newt was bombed by everyone, including Santorum. But that's beside the point: there is no reasonable person who really thinks that the one who carpet bombs will be the one who benefits. That kind of logic should be left behind on the kindergarten play ground. So I'll leave you there. I can't stoop that low anymore. You make my head hurt.
Bob Grant's a lot of things. RINO is not one of them. I've heard Grant for over 30 years, first on WABC then WOR and he made me uneasy until one day he agreed wholeheartedly with a caller who referred to the vast majority of junior high kids in the school I taught at savages and criminals. From that point on he made my skin crawl.
there is no reasonable person who really thinks that the one who carpet bombs will be the one who benefits."
It's worked for Mitt everywhere.
"Newt was bombed by everyone"
But Mitt was the one with the money running ads. Santorum isn't responsible for Newt's loss. Satorum still defeated Romney in Iowa, and you said that Santorum was a jealous weasel at the beginning.
He's a RINO in the modern sense. I don't mean 30 years ago.
Thank you. However, the super intelligent American people do not want a Statesman, they have made it very clear they want a Snake oil salesman or the whining novice, or Dr. Straitjacket.
Here is a video of Romney calling himself a RINO. How can I vote for ths man when even he admits there is nothing Republican about him
Here is a video of Romney calling himself a RINO. How can I vote for ths man when even he admits there is nothing Republican about him
I agree with you, I can't vote for him.
Dr. Straitjacket
who is that?
Bob Grant used to be better than to quote hearsay from some anonymous woman. In fact I remember Bob quoting Ronaldus Maximus and the 11th Commandment.
Bob Grant has been a RINO forever.
He is ardently "pro-choice." Explains his hatred for Santorum.
Santorum won the same way Huckabee did: because of what happened at Evangelical churches the Sunday before the IA caucuses.
So what, he still beat Romney with all of his money and support from the establishment.
The "so what" is that there's something really unseemly about church people voting in lockstep because some 'leaders' decide "X" is 'their' candidate. The candidate doesn't have to be best for USA, just simpatico with the aforementioned church 'leaders.' One would think they were electing the equivalent of the Pope instead of POTUS.
"The so what is that theres something really unseemly about church people voting in lockstep because some leaders decide X is their candidate."
You don't know that all of Santorum's voters were Evangelicals.
Why are we posting stuff like this? If Santorum doesn't beat Romney, it's Romney or Obama. What an unnamed woman said to Bob Grant is not very substantial. We need to support Santorum at this point.
On a more positive, hopeful note, if Santorum and Gingrich could work together on a united ticket I think they would crush Romney even at this late stage of the game. They would also be able to divide the campaign trail and work twice as effectively.
Just a question, if they united, would that automatically mean that their delegates would be combined?
"You dont know that all of Santorums voters were Evangelicals."
Who said ALL of Santorum's voters were Evangelicals? That may be your inference, but it is not what I posted. Neither did I say he got ALL evangelicals. However, he did get the bulk of Evangelicals who voted, which was enough to sway the caucuses in his direction.
W"ho said ALL of Santorums voters were Evangelicals? That may be your inference, but it is not what I posted. Neither did I say he got ALL evangelicals. However, he did get the bulk of Evangelicals who voted, which was enough to sway the caucuses in his direction."
And Romney and Paul didn't get any Evangelicals to vote for them? Who cares who voted for him? He still defeated the frontrunner who had all the money, and the establishment behind him.
They can ask that their delegates to the other candidate, but the delegate doesn't have to do that. I'm posting this to show how much RINO's dislike conservatives.
There hasn't been one ounce of logic to any of your posts so far. I'm beginning to think you are a troll, so will end here.
I disproved what you said, and you haven't even used any statistics for your argument. BTW, Santorum won more than just Iowa.
According to this group of perpetual malcontents, Reagan was a RINO. He was a former Democrat, had a divorce, frequently compromised with Democrats and believed in free trade.
I Reagan was running today, they would call him every vile name in the book. The word "respect" is not even in their vocabulary.
Reagan wasn't supported by the same people who are supporting Romney, so no I wouldn't call him a RINO.
You are more of a fringe religious lunatic, who is confusing Conservatism with theocratic law. To put it into more simple terms that you might be able to understand, everyone who does not agree with your limited perception if reality, is automatically a RINO.
I'm an atheist. I didn't bring up religion. You think conservatism means who can get elected, which is limited.
Was that supposed to be some attempt at a logical response?
Wow, reading back on your posts, you might try proof reading more often. You are starting to sound a lot like santorum. You aren't making any sense.
You sound like a moron. You accused me of being a religious lunatic when I'm an atheist. You also said I would call Reagan a RINO, when the Romney supporters opposed Reagan.
You call yourself an Atheist, which is on the fringe of sorts. The behavior is the same however. So I will immediately correct my error by saying you are coming from the outlook of an Atheist fanatic.
You cannot compare Reagan to today's GOP, since the demographics of the country are over 30 years past. And you are wrong about the Romney supporters opposing Reagan. Most of Romney's supporters were rabid Reagan campaign supporters. I can claim that from actual experience, since I was a Reagan campaign volunteer myself, and spent a good part of my young adult life during that era.
Oddly enough Newt and Santorum seem to get along fine.
I agree, that is odd.
Bob Grant makes a lot of sense. He fears for our country if Obama is reelected. He thinks Romney has best chance to win. You can listen to Grant on Sundays from noon to 2 pm and make up your own mind.
"You cannot compare Reagan to today's GOP, since the demographics of the country are over 30 years past. And you are wrong about the Romney supporters opposing Reagan. Most of Romney's supporters were rabid Reagan campaign supporters. I can claim that from actual experience, since I was a Reagan campaign volunteer myself, and spent a good part of my young adult life during that era."
The demographics don't matter for the primary. You insulted me first, secondly you brought up Regan, not me. Romney isn't the conservative in the race, so why would Reagan supporter be supporting him? Romney supporters would be George H.W. Bush supporters, and Ford supporteres.
Grant hasn't made sense in a long, long time.
Bob Grant also endorsed Charlie Crist over Marco Rubio. He's a RINO.
You are right - his true colors came out during the early debates. Santorum is a cheap shot artist who doesn't stand a chance at beating obama.

The Director-General pays tribute to the memory of Elinor Ostrom
It was with great sadness that UNESCO Director-General Irina Bokova has learned of the loss of Professor Elinor Ostrom, a friend of UNESCO and the first woman to receive the Nobel Prize in Economic Sciences.
"Elinor Ostrom revolutionised ways of thinking about collective action and common property. Her work showed that the interaction of trust and reciprocity can solve complex problems, such as water management or fishing areas. At a time when the world is meeting in Rio to think about new solutions for sustainable development, her loss sends a poignant appeal to ponder her message," said the Director-General.
An essential aspect of her work goes to the heart of UNESCO's mission and concerns her commitment to the protection of diversity. As Founding Director of the Center for the Study of Institutional Diversity at Arizona State University, she showed that local groups living in different environments and different cultural contexts have developed a variety of ways to manage resources sustainably, building on indigenous knowledge.
"Elinor Ostrom had the creativity of a gardener, planting her seeds all over the world, stimulating the intellectual curiosity of generations of students, both women and men. Her career is an encouragement for all women who want to pursue careers in science. An outstanding pedagogue, she came to UNESCO in 2011 for a conference where she showed great intellectual vigour at nearly 80 years old and sharp eye on the world. She said, "We must learn how to dissect and harness complexity, rather than eliminate it." UNESCO has heard, loud and clear, her call for a new social contract in the name of global sustainability. She will be greatly missed and I send in my name and on behalf of UNESCO, my condolences to her family and to the American people".

A Lockean Argument for Basic Income
Daniel Moseley
Duke Universiy; The University of North Carolina
June 25, 2011
Basic Income Studies, Vol. 6, No. 2, 2011
There are strong Lockean considerations that count in favor of a global basic income program. This paper articulates a conception of equal share left-libertarianism that is supported by the rights of full self-ownership and world-ownership. It is argued that an appropriately constructed basic income program would be a key institution for promoting the rights of full self-ownership and world-ownership.

Rubbish. That thread was closed purely because Grizz kept complaining to the moderators. There have been far more abusive comments in other threads without them being closed.
[QUOTE=Owl;919834]These threads are about IODINE SUPPLEMENTATION. If someone doesn't believe in it, why are they continuously posting here? If you think you should get all of their iodine naturally, then speak your mind, continue eating your kelp, but leave this thread to those of us who want to supplement with Iodoral or Lugols or some other form of iodine.[/QUOTE]
Read the thread title - it says "Iodine: a discussion...". If you want a thread titled "Supplementing with Iodoral or Lugols: a discussion for people who don't want anyone to disagree with them" then why don't you go & start one, or take Grizz's advice & head over to the Curezone love-in.

Picks and Pans Main: TV
Elizabeth Reaser
This series, recently renewed for a second season, seemed like a total loser to me when it premiered. A drama about the well-off Walker family, it stuffed in too many preeningly articulate characters (five adult children, one widowed mom), and among them were two fusspot actresses (Sally Field and Calista Flockhart) who might be expected to flutter at each other like moths in a mirror. But the show has developed into a solid soap that really catches fire. Special credit goes to two actors who surprise us by mining mature, wry humor from the show's melodrama. Their names are, yes, Sally Field, facing the messiness of widowhood with sweetness and steel, and Calista Flockhart as her prominent conservative daughter. She's now in a relationship with a Republican senator played by Rob Lowe. Flockhart's nibbly, wide-eyed anxiousness plays well off Lowe's thin-lipped directness. This could be you, Ann Coulter!
NBC (Mondays, 10 p.m. ET)
Ashton Kutcher, the actor and reality impresario who presides over Punk'd as intently as if he were Martin Scorsese with a whoopee cushion, is one of the producers of this show inspired by Vince Vaughn's movie Wedding Crashers. Here the bride and groom are in on the gag: Their ceremony and reception will be subverted by actors pretending to be planners, ministers, caterers and so on. It's only family and friends who end up fooled. Apart from the fact that the gags aren't funny—a waiter takes away guests' plates still loaded with food—it's off-putting to see something sacred being mucked around with. What's next? Crashing funerals?
Discovery (April 30, 5 p.m. ET)
A new season kicks off for the only quiz show I would ever describe as adorable: It's conducted inside a taxi as it cruises up and down the busy streets of Manhattan. Unsuspecting passengers hop into the cab and shout their destination. At that point colored lights flash in the ceiling and host-driver Ben Bailey, as easygoing as Broadway is long, explains the show's setup. He asks the questions, which are rewarded with cash. When a question's too challenging, you can actually have him pull over so you can ask a passerby for help. Everyone onboard seems to be tickled to have an ordinary cab ride (which in New York City usually ends with sullen thoughts of how much to tip) transformed by such a silly shot of adrenaline. If only there were a Cash Elevator. All hail Cash Cab!
NBC (Wednesdays, 8 p.m. ET)
A weekly hour of improv sketch comedy? The red hand on the excite-o-meter stirs a little, as if considering a salute, then falls motionless. But Thank God, which started as an Australian show, is innocently goofy, and at least we can be thankful for that. David Alan Grier serves as host, and Dave Foley (NewsRadio) is judge of who among that week's four performers will go home with a cheap trophy crafted (as he puts it) "in shatterproof plastic by the Franklin Mint." During the debut episode, I laughed when Jennifer Coolidge, the only actress who can look voluptuous and panic-stricken at the same time, was thrown into a sketch about international beauty contestants. Asked to name one thing she'd rid mankind of, she answered, "I never liked dry ice."
"She is turning me into a little bit more of a woman," says Emily VanCamp, 20, of her character Rebecca Harper, a young woman who oozes sarcasm and sexuality. "I never behave the way she does, and I don't lead with my sexuality," says the ex-Everwood star. "I'm still that clumsy little girl at heart, and it's helping me launch into my womanhood. Though I won't be behaving like her anytime soon."
Saturday Night Live (NBC, April 21, 11:30 p.m. ET) Now here's a lineup: Scarlett Johansson, the gorgeous star and unlikely muse to Woody Allen, returns as host. Musical guest: Björk.
Celebrity Fit Club (VH1, April 22, 9 p.m. ET) This crop actually has potential: You've got ex-Idol Kimberley Locke and Dustin "Screech" Diamond from Saved by the Bell. Saved by the barbell, more like.
Idol Gives Back (FOX, April 24-25, 8 p.m. ET) American Idol devotes two nights to fund-raising for African poverty. Night Two features everyone from Daniel Radcliffe to Keira Knightley to—Borat? Plus someone goes home.
This American Life (Showtime, April 26, 10:30 p.m. ET) First-season finale of the beautifully odd news-magazine hosted by Ira Glass.
Kelly Ripa
The Live with Regis and Kelly cohost takes a break from her daily gig—and monitoring Regis Philbin's recovery from open-heart surgery—to emcee the TV Land Awards on April 22.
ON LETTING HER KIDS WATCH TV I'm a child of TV. I was addicted. But I want the kids to develop good habits. They're allowed to watch an hour of TV on weekends.
ON WHAT REALITY SHOW SHE'D BE BEST FOR The Amazing Race, especially if my husband were my partner. We're efficient travelers.
ON REGIS He's coming back soon. I miss him. The big man isn't here, so the frenetic energy isn't here.
October Road's Bryan Greenberg
Greenberg, 28, shines as a sincere guy who returns home and faces his past on the ABC hit. Its first-season finale is April 26.
ON LEADING-MAN STATUS I've never had to carry a show on my shoulders, but I relished it. It's flattering when people come up with [heartthrob] nicknames. I'll take "McRoady."
ON HIS OWN ALBUM, WAITING FOR NOW It's mostly indie acoustic rock. I've been playing the guitar ever since I was a kid [and] been writing songs forever. Music is always a constant in my life.
Now we can see the face behind the traumatic makeup: Reaser, 31, is Grey's Anatomy's disfigured amnesiac "Jane Doe," restored to health with the help of Dr. Alex Karev (Justin Chambers).
ON HER PROSTHETIC FACE It took three hours to apply every day. It was intense. I'd be crying, and tears would go underneath the mask, and then the [director] would say, "Cry!" And I'd be like, "I am crying!"
ON THE HIGH-POWERED ENSEMBLE After filming The Family Stone with great actors like Diane Keaton, I don't get nervous anymore. I've learned to enjoy it. The characters have a lot of drama, but we have a great time. And I get to work with Justin, who's so sweet and fun. He's pretty much the perfect man.
ON WHETHER SPARKS WILL FLY People assume there's a romance [between Jane and Alex], but I don't know what's going to happen. Grey's is a lot like life—you don't know.

At last the much neglected field of public relations for hospitals has been charted. This volume should be studied carefully by every hospital trustee and administrator. Mills has made a distinct contribution not only to the field of hospital administration but to the advancements being made in providing hospital and medical care to the American people. This book will provide the alert trustee and administrator with workable plans for making the public better understand their hospital and should arouse those who have been less observing of modern trends and needs to an awareness of the role public opinion will assume in the future of their institutions.
Mills defines a public relations program, as the term is used in his book, to mean one that "is a conscious, sincere, directed endeavor to create and strengthen contacts which contribute to the development of mutual understanding, good will and respect between an institution

How Mount Pleasant came to get the nickname 'Hungry Neck' is one of the gnawing history mysteries I've yet to see fully solved.
Some have proposed that the name is fairly recent, coming about during the 20th century because the people on this side of the Cooper River were not as wealthy as others.
Some surmise this happened after the Civil War; others say during the Great Depression.
The suggestion certainly makes sense except that the term 'Hungry Neck' shows up in writing as a place name for Mount Pleasant as early as the 1850s..
Charleston historian Samuel Gaillard Stoney said that the name 'Hungry Neck' was given to the lands east of the Cooper River because the soil was too sandy to grow good crops.
The late Milby Burton, who was director of the Charleston Museum for years, thinks the name came from a 19th century plantation called Starvegut Hall on the Wando River (now part of the Dunes West subdivisions).
I recently did a rather remarkable computer search through a link that allows me to search early newspapers by subject.
Putting in the name 'Hungry Neck' brought some interesting (and entertaining) results.
First off, I discovered that Mount Pleasant is not the only historic Hungry Neck on the planet.
There is a Hungry Neck, Ga., and a Hungry Neck in Somerset County, Md. (which apparently is not too far from Potato Neck).
In Boyle county Kentucky, a Hungry Neck Bridge is not too far from a place called Hungry Neck Hill. In the British Isles, someone is actually selling hand-made silk ties under the brand name of 'Hungryneck Ties.'
As to our own Hungry Neck? It pops up regularly as a name denoting Mount Pleasant.
On June 11, 1907 the Evening Post referred to the 'fast and commodious' steamer Lawrence 'crossing the billows' to Hungry Neck.
The explanation they give for the name is confusing at best.
The article said Hungry Neck was a region 'placed on the local maps as the growing village of Mount Pleasant - so named because no strife mars family life on that strip of marsh.'
A nice description but it makes no sense.
The early 1900s was when the trolley line began at the ferry landing just below Alhambra Hall (at the end of aptly named Ferry Street) and the Lawrence was one of the ferry boats. The trolley ran down Pitt Street to the Cove Inlet bridge (now the Old Bridge) to Sullivan's Island, and then traversed the island to the new resort called Isle of Palms.
It is for these early trolley stops that Sullivan's Island's cross streets are called stations.
At this time the main mode of transportation was still horse and buggy and Mount Pleasant was a tiny town concentrated in what is now the Old Village.
On Aug. 24, 1903, the Evening Post wrote a funny story about an accidental run-in between the trolley and a runaway horse under the headline, 'Hungry Neck Steed Stood Down the Track at a Clip that Defied '
'The passengers on one section of the trolley cars from the 6:30 o'clock boat to the Island yesterday afternoon were entertained with a lively exhibition of speeding by a steed of the Hungry Neck section,' wrote the Post.
'The horse was drawing an old-fashioned buggy, whether occupied or not… was not ascertained.
At any rate, the passengers got the first view of him in action about the post office [on Pitt Street just below McCants Drive] when he made a dash down one of the side streets of Mount Pleasant, going west.
At the next block he was back on the high road [Pitt Street] and barely missed colliding with the train at which he had first taken fright.
Coming up under the bow of the trolley car, he straightened out on the track and sped for the distant mark of the cove bridge [the Old Bridge] like Reliance when she has her spinnaker set.
The train came behind at a good clip, but it was a stern chase far away. In the distance the valiant steed was dashing to victory or death, for it was clear that if he struck the trestle he would carry away his lower spars. The passengers on the cars began to lay wagers on the prospects of overtaking of the flying animal and the platform of the front car was as crowded as the bridge of the Erin in the America's cup contest with eager spectators.
As the horse drew near to the mark, still following the track… a man rushed out and headed him off and brought him up in the wind. A few more rods and he would have been stranded on the trestle and doubtless would have been wrecked completely.
As it was, he only trembled a bit as his beaten rival hove in sight. His tow was not seemingly damaged at all.'
The earliest newspaper clipping I found with Hungry Neck as a place name was the Sept. 15, 1858 Courier in an article on the new village of Hilliardville (just east of Alhambra Hall), named for Oliver Hilliard who developed the land with Charles Jugnot in 1847.
Wrote the Courier: 'To the east of Mount Pleasant, within a few minutes' walk of the Ferry landing, amidst a grove of venerable and majestic oaks, which cover a considerable area, and form a most luxuriant shade, there is springing up gradually, in silent and innocent growth, as picturesque a hamlet, as ever met the gaze of an admirer of nature!
''Tis true, its name has not a very poetical sound, but yet, when we consider, that it was given in compliment to one of the principal inhabits of Christ Church Paris who had contributed much to the improvement of, and had been indefatigable in his endeavors to raise the said Parish to its present position, and to efface forever from the memory of the 'oldest inhabitant' its former incongruous, and therefore, very objectionable appellation of 'Hungry Neck,' we must acknowledge that no honor could have been conferred more justly, and no name more appropriate and suitable for this charming little village than Hilliardville.'
From this fine piece of prose we glean that even in 1858 the name Hungry Neck had been around for some time and had long been used by the 'oldest inhabitants' of Mount Pleasant.
So how did Hungry Neck get its name? I still don't know.
The quest continues.

News that legendary Tennessee coach Pat Summitt has been diagnosed with dementia has elicited reaction from throughout the basketball world:
"I was shocked and saddened to hear about the news regarding Pat Summitt's diagnosis. You don't necessarily associate dementia with people our age so this announcement really put things in perspective. Pat has great support from her family, friends and staff and I know they will help her immensely. There is no doubt in my mind that Pat will take on this challenge as she has all others during her Hall of Fame career -- head on. I wish her all the best."
-- UConn women's basketball coach Geno Auriemma
"It takes amazing courage for Pat to come forward and discuss her health with her players, our fans and the entire country, but that's who she is. Pat Summitt stands for courage and integrity. We will stand behind her and support her in every way possible. We look forward to her continued leadership as the Lady Vols head coach, and I know that even through this adversity she will be an inspiration to all of us."
-- Tennessee Chancellor Jimmy Cheek
"Pat Summitt is not only my mom but also an incredible role model and mentor for me. It seems like she teaches me something new every day, and she is currently giving me one of the best life lessons of all: to have the courage to be open, honest and face the truth.
"This will be a new chapter for my mom and I, and we will continue to work as a team like we always have done. We both appreciate the continued support of the Lady Vol family. Our faith is in the Lord, and we trust that God has a plan for us. Looking forward, nobody is as ready for the 2011-12 basketball season to start as much as the Summitt family. God Bless."
-- Tyler Summitt
"She's been incredibly supportive to me. I had a chance to work with her. I had a chance to coach her son. And we're friends for life."
-- Former Tennessee men's coach Bruce Pearl, to ESPN
"As good as I know God is I still can't stop crying. This has been a tough day ... My heart hurts for Coach Summitt and my TN family. I just cried and cried when I initially found out. She has been and important part of my life and will continue to be. God has the finally say."
-- Former Vols All-American Chamique Holdsclaw (@Chold1), via Twitter
"When I heard about coach Summitt, I was stunned. Pat Summitt transcends her sport. She is more than just a coach & a leader in her field. No one has done more for her sport or for women & she will be in my daily prayers. Big Blue Nation keep her in your thoughts and prayers."
-- Kentucky coach John Calipari
"Wishing Pat Summitt the very best as she battles this illness. One of the best ever in any sport, with tremendous class and dignity."
-- ESPN basketball analyst Jay Bilas (@JayBilas), via Twitter
"I am truly saddened by the news of Coach Pat Summitt's medical diagnosis.What she represents to not only the sport of women's basketball, but all sports, cannot be measured in words but only described as 'inspiration.' After listening to her statement and having the opportunity to see up close the type of fierce competitor she is, I am confident that she will handle this challenge just as we have seen her handle other challenges throughout her career. I add my support and the support of our Trojan football program to that of those around the world for Pat, her family, staff and players for the road ahead.Fight on!"
-- USC football coach Lane Kiffin, who cached at Tennesee in 2009, to the Los Angeles Times
"I was very shocked to hear the news about Coach Summitt. After spending some of the summer with her out recruiting, she still seems to be the coach that we've all known and seen over the years. I send out prayers and best wishes for her and her family, and I know with doctors' recommendations and care, she'll continue to be the strong-minded coach that she's been and exemplified for the last 37 years.... I know that I as well as the rest of the coaches around the country are going to expect nothing but the best every time she and her team step on the floor."
-- Michael Cooper, USC women's basketball coach, to the LA Times

I made a batch of these late last night (along with another treat), to take to a holiday party this evening. It appears that I will have to make more today... (it seems as though the "gremlins" must have found them over night). When reading the prior reviews, I decided that I could sub brown sugar for the Muscovado, and it worked just fine. Mine don't look nearly as pretty as some pics posted on this recipe, but they do taste wonderful! Well, I'm off to make my next batch (and this time I will hide them). Thanks for posting. "Happy Holidays". (Made for PRMR)
This is a great cookie. I used brown sugar in place of muscovado. I also appreciate all the info from other reviewers. It was really helpful. Made for PRMR.
Excellent squares!! I used brown sugar as well, and baked it at 350 for 25 minutes. Watch your caramel - it turns dark super quick! Mine was salvagable, with a luscious creme caramel flavour. I absolutely love the crust on this bar, it's divine and had us running to the kitchen well before the squares had set! Thanks for posting this favourite, Noo! Made for PRMR Tag.

Members of the Mt. Top Senior Citizens Center in Thomas promoted breast cancer awareness on this week with a luncheon that included speakers from the WVU Extension Office and West Virginia Breast and Cervical Cancer Screening Program.
Center members involved with the Community Educational Outreach Service invited Jennifer Poling of the extension office and Ruthie Watts of the WVBCCSP to talk about cancer detection and services provided by their programs on Tuesday.
"It's very important to check your breast each month," Watts said.

Meg and Jim Buddingh perform at the Mt. Top Senior Citizen Center. The couple played following a presentation about breast cancer awareness.
She said that simple tests can be completed at home. Checking the breast for lumps is a process that takes only a few minutes and can save a person's life.
Watts also discussed the need for more advanced services that can only be done at a doctor's office. These include clinical breast exams and mammograms.
"Don't wait to get a mammogram," she said.
Watts said that certain risk factors can make women and men more susceptible to cancer. Age, personal and family history, the onset of menopause and having children after age 30 can all increase a person's risk.
The WVBCCSP assists people who have low incomes. They offer clinical breast exams, mammograms, pap tests and pelvic exams to those between ages 25 and 64 who meet low-income requirements.
Different income levels are set for different family sizes. The services are targeted toward people who have no insurance or who are underinsured.
Poling spoke about the role of the extension office.
"We oversee all the CEOS clubs in the county," she said.
Officials at the extension office support CEOS members by helping them coordinate programs like the one presented Tuesday.
Similar programs have been presented across the state and each group has their own personalized ceremony.
The Tucker County group hung a wreath for the event. Senior center members Jo Adamy, Adalene Snyder, Thelma Turek, Louise Felpon and Joretts Kuhn were involved in the hanging of the wreath.
In addition to lunch, Meg and Jim Buddingh performed on the acoustic and slide guitar, respectively. As they played, Meg Buddingh sang about life and love. The crowd joined in during her final number, a rendition of "When the Saints Go Marching In."

And I thought I spent a lot when I bought a $1000 Arsenal 106:uhoh:
DI and lots of Aluminum never struck a chord with me. Steel and simplicity rank high with me, but the extraction of straight wall brass might have some problems even with a short piston system.
Change to a tapered wall 5.45 x 39 and go back in history. How many 5.45 x 39 Saigas can I buy for 516 or 106 money? Answer: 3.34 rifles at today's prices:
Truthfully, I would buy one without having ever shot a Saiga simply based on appreciation of all the Sig pistols I have come to dearly love. I suspect I will someday own one if I didn't want that BMW so much. If Sig had these when the
106 came out, I probably would have bought one instead.;)

Sig Sauers both .223 5.56 NATO. A 556008 DMR LE 21 in 1n10 twist bbl. I also have a Sig Sauer 516 Hunter with a 20in bbl. 1n9 twist. It is a flattop that came with no sights on it and the bbl has 3 different diameters on the way to the muzzle, kind of a Heavy Relieved bbl I was reading a Sig Sauer review (ad) about the 516 and it is wrong. The second sentence starts "The Sig 516s are all gas-piston operated.", they are not. I belive the author was refering to the 556 Series which is piston operated The rifles look nothing like each other. The SIG 516 could be mistaken for an AR (forward assist and all) in fact people are swapping bottoms and tops on them. The 556 has bolt that slides back and forth oosely in the bolt guide, no dust cover. The charging handle is kept in the pistol grip and is installed everytime the rifle comes out of the case and taken off when placed in the case My 556008 DMR LE has 1 piston adjustment, not 3. 556 is the nomiclature for the gas piston operated model SIGS. The 516 is DGI Direct Gas Impingement operation.* 5'16' the 16 is Sigs way of letting you know that the rifle operates like a M16. DG There are 2 different types of 556008 DMRs. One has a 20 in bbl the DMR HERO DETAIL the other a 21 in bbl, the DMR LE MODEL. Neither of the rifles I own have any threads on the muzzle as stated in the review/ad. The DMR LE is match grade crowned at the factory.* I have not seen another the 516 with a 20 inch bbl. mine has no rails on it, just a flattop you pick the pointers. I am sure there are 20 in bbl 516s around(all I have seen are the 16.5in bbls they are getting scarce) I bought my 516 at WalMart for 900 dollars, they sell M4 Bushmasters for the same price. SIG 900 BM 900 I have a BM Carbon15 for social purposes and I can say the bolt and carrier tolerences are much tighter in the SIG. The bolt makes a suction sound when clean and hand operated 556008 DMR LE and 516 hunter w/20 in bb 516 hunter I have not seen another 20inch bbl all are 16.5 This reminds me of an M16A2

post #9 is from biggamehunt.net saying the sig 516 is di .....***

Yep...it is piston driven.
The recoil feels different than DI, not harder...just different.
You don't have to worry about keeping the BCG lubed, the lube doesn't burn off there. The bolt stays cool...the gas rings are out front at the piston, the piston gets pretty dang warm (much like the bolt on a DI gun).
I've fired appx. 2,000 rounds through the 516...I have no complaints, there is no sign of any damage from carrier tilt, its accurate, has never jammed with any ammo (factory and reloads), its well put together. It came with a cheap red dot sight thats usable but i wouldn't wanna take it into combat, it also came with a 3 point sling that has a pretty neat way of attaching to the rifle....my son says its better than they way they connect to issued rifles.
In the end...its just another AR15, a tad different...but still the same.

There are gas rings in the bolt...but they never see any gas.
The bolt is exactly the same as on a DI gun, except the gas key.

The SIG 5.56mm they sell at wal-mart is an M400 model, which has a direct impingement setup.

One who janks-off excessively.
At work they call me the "Janker" because I tend to jank-off at work.
