Liberty Counsel Honors Israeli Government Days After It Adopts 'World's Most Liberal' Abortion Policy
Just two days after Israel's cabinet approved a new policy extending government abortion subsidies to all women ages 20-33, the staunchly anti-choice Liberty Counsel released an alert entitled, "Stand With Israel Now," complete with a photograph of Benjamin Netanyahu with Liberty Counsel head Mat Staver.
"There has never been a more critical time for you to show your support to Israel and its Prime Minister, Benjamin Netanyahu! Become a Liberty Ambassador to Israel and have your faith strengthened and your resolve fortified to stand for Israel," the group writes. "In light of the failed foreign policies of our current American administration, it has never been a more important time to express our unwavering resolve to stand united with Israel."
Matt Barber, Staver's deputy at Liberty Counsel, has praised Netanyahu as the "Leader of the Free World" who turned Israel into "the shining city on the hill," unlike President Obama whom the group regularly berates as "one of the world's immoral leaders."
The group accuses Obama of implementing "forced abortion funding" and "rubbing the aborted babies in the face of every single American." They also argue that God will punish America for Obama's "self-destructive" pro-choice stance, and have linked abortion rights to Satan, slavery, Nazism and the Holocaust.
Just a few months ago, Staver and Barber insisted that if they were to remain silent in their opposition to abortion rights, they would be just as bad as "those who silently stood by and allowed the Nazis to murder millions of Jews." "Silence is affirmation," Staver said. "If you are silent on this issue, you are affirming that this is something that is acceptable."
"Posterity will view those who stood in silence or who tacitly accepted this abortion holocaust just as history views those who silently stood by and allowed the Nazis to murder millions of Jews," Barber said, adding: "Are we comparing the pro-choice movement to the Nazi movement? Yes! Absolutely."
Now, imagine if it was the Obama administration rather than Netanyahu's cabinet which adopted a far-reaching policy that the Times of Israel calls one of the "most liberal abortion coverage [policies] in the world"?
But so far from Liberty Counsel, there are no calls for Netanyahu's ouster, no comparisons to Nazism and no warnings of divine wrath.
Instead just a statement entitled, "Stand With Israel Now."

What kind of PC do you need for VR - virtual reality headsets?That depends on which headset you are going to use. All of them include kind of similar requirements:Good processor - on that - see below8GB RAM minimumGTX 1060 or AMD RX 470 and up3x USB 3.0 ports (and 1x USB 2.0)Windows 7 and up (or may need 10) 64bitThat sums it up mostly. Now for the processor - Oculus Rift wants Intel i5 4590 and above CPU, while others (like HTC) run on AMD FX x8 processors as well. Oculus does not like AMD processors at all, like none of them. They say AMD CPUs are weak in single-thread processing compared to Intel and so no AMD processor can be used with Oculus right now. Other VR headsets can work with AMD though. It makes us believe that it may not be the AMDs problem but rather poor optimization by Oculus for multi-core processors. So to be on a safer side just pick any modern LGA 1151 Intel processor, add GTX 970 or Radeon equivalent GPU and 8GB RAM which is already standard these days, the rest you will most likely have already if you are getting a modern PC. Oh... and lay some cash aside for that VR set, it's going to be expensive in the beginning.
- AMD dirver hotfix for new Tomb Raider looks like does not help a lot with performance, game runs nearly just as bad as with unoptimized drivers (older). Seems like Nvidia is the way to go if you want to run Rise of the Tomb Raider now. At least CrossFire is enabled now.
- Did you know how regular SSDs differ inside?SLC has the fastest write speeds, highest endurance, and the lowest power consumption. However, this comes at the expense of the lowest density, which in turn gives us a higher cost than the other types. This high performance makes SLC the choice for enterprise storage, though even that area is migrating to MLC now.MLC is the middle-of-the-road choice. While it has slower write speeds and lower endurance than SLC, its higher density gives it good performance, and lower cost compared to SLC. This balancing act of cost versus performance makes MLC the choice for consumer-grade NAND applications at affordable prices.TLC has the highest density of NAND storage, which gives it the lowest cost. The penalties are that the read and write speeds are the slowest, with the lowest endurance compared to the other NAND types. This makes TLC most appropriate for budget SSDs
- Did you know that when you use BitLocker it uploads a copy of your recovery key to your OneDrive? Now consider this - FBI, Microsoft and bunch of other people you don't know (and don't want to know) can access your information on OneDrive (and other MS places) upon request if such information is required "by law or to respond to legal process; to protect our customers; to protect lives; to maintain the security of our services; and to protect the rights or property of Microsoft".How secure do you feel now? Ohhh, Windows 10 has a lot more dirty secrets than you think!
- We have got our hands on ASUS R9 Fury Strix - which is a bit of an improved stock R9 Fury. How does it compare to competition? It's about 6-8% slower than Fury X which in itself is a bit of disappointment in our eyes, being slower than GTX 980 Ti and out of stock everywhere. ASUS R9 Fury Strix is trading blows with GTX 980, winning in many tests at higher resolutions (4K) but loosing majority of tests in 1080p. Price difference is around $50-70. ASUS Strix version is quiet and looks nice and at least it brings parity with GTX 980 in some sense which is not bad in its own. Unfortunately overclocking is very limited without proper voltage control. Future driver updates may change the picture a bit though. We have expected a bit more but at least Fury series will not let Nvidia relax on its throne!
- Blizzard revealed new World Of Warcraft expansion: "Legion". So what is WoW Legion? It's a return of a Burning Legion, it does look like a first expansion a bit, in terms of novelty at least. What's really new?- New hero class - demon hunter. Yeah - that Illidan-kind looking night-elven outcasts. Illidari they are called to be exact. They have some nice looking abilities that should change the game when you run them. It looks like there will be two specs for them only - tank and DPS. Artifacts - new weapons of some sort. They start simple-looking but grow with you and change both visibly and in specs. New area on the map - The Broken Isles. That is where new Legion invasion happens. New denizens - satyr, drogbar, Kvaldir and others... Blizzard says they are reinventing many features, with new dungeons, new PVP features and more things to come.
HDD - learn how to treat and protect it. Hard-Disk-Drives are still found in almost all machines today, even though SSD is fighting for a place under the sun remove HDD from perspective slowly. Even computer with SSD drives still enjoy slower but bigger and cheaper HDDs for bigger files or those that you need often. Backups and movie collections are usually found on big HDDs. How to make sure your HDD is working fine and prevent it from transforming into dead paperweight? Avoid drops and other physical damage. There are moving parts in HDDs - discs and reading/writing heads. When HDD is off all moving parts are "parked" and can withstand some abuse (not much), but kick a spinning drive and watch it die. Keep HDD cool. Usually nobody cares about HDD cooling, but it's important for happy long life of your HDD. Most hard drives are installed in the front part of the case, and most cases allow at least one fan (as intake) in that front part, make sure you have it installed. You can get nice quiet 120mm fan for under $10, it will help bring cool air to other components as well.Avoid power outages, frequent powering on and off, static discharges, invest in UPS (uninterrupted power source). Defragment data and watch SMART readings from HDD - in case of any errors make a backup immediately. Beware of Clicks Of Death! If you hear your HDD clocking - make a backup and prepare to throw away this HDD. Still have no SSD drive in your PC? Invest in one, at least 120GB version, you will love it! Also having two separate drives in your system allows for easier backups of critical data. That is on top of super speed of SSD.
Intel Skylake - it's here finally and we can now give you an insight at its performance. First - there is no (almost) performance increase over last get Hawell processors. If you compare new i7 6700K to older i7 4790K - there is no difference, 4790K even looks better in some benches compared to new CPU. Overclocking has not changed much, other than allowing fine tuning with base-clock frequency in addition to changing multiplier (not a new feature, more of a comeback). There is not much of an efficiency improvement, TDP is higher a few percent. So why did Intel even bother releasing Skylake? It's the features that we get, new features of the Z170 chipset and socket 1151. We get 20 PCI-e 3.0 lanes connecting everything to CPU, up from same 20 PCI-e 2.0 before (which are twice slower). Now we are talking about ability to add 14x USB 2.0 and 10x USB 3.0 ports some of which will be USB 3.1 type-C connectors. Plus with those fast PCI-e 3.0 lanes we can imagine multiple M.2 NVMe SSDs with same 6x SATA 3.0 ports (or SATA-express among them). 3- or 4-way SLI and CF is possible on Z170 now, not only on X99 boards. Haswell-E and X99 are still a choice of top-level enthusiasts (with bigger pockets) but Skylake brings a lot of new features and improvements if not speed, that were only available on higher-end chipsets. Oh, and DDR4 memory - it's not much more expensive than DDR3 now, why not step up to it?We will be adding Skylake based machines on our Intel-PC page in the near future, expect to see both i5-6600K and i7-6700K overclocked and ready to rock!

WATKINS GLEN, N.Y. (AP) - Rusty Wallace arrived at Watkins Glen International on Friday with no idea how to deal with the new concrete laid where asphalt had been crumbling in the turns. He left with a track record.
Wallace won the pole for Sunday's Frontier at the Glen with a lap at 121.234 mph. His Ford negotiated the 2.45-mile layout in 1 minute, 12.752 seconds.
The lap broke Dale Earnhardt's 3-year-old mark of 120.773 mph at the track near the Finger Lakes.
Wallace was not among the drivers who tested three weeks ago, after the turns were fixed. Winston Cup points leader Dale Jarrett did test, and advised Wallace on the best way around the serpentine course.
Wallace, one of just three four-time road course winners in NASCAR history, didn't get much practice time because of rain. It delayed qualifying for 3 1/2 hours, leaving many of the drivers apprehensive about how to handle the new corners.
It was the second pole this season and 24th of Wallace's career. He is seeking his third victory at Watkins Glen and milestone 50th overall.
"I'd love to win another race here," said Wallace, whose last victory at the track was 10 years ago - in his Winston Cup championship season.
A stunning second was Boris Said, a road-racing specialist, who got his Ford around in 120.915.
"I was just trying to make the field," Said explained. "That's a lot of pressure when you have to run just one lap."
It was the fourth try to qualify this season for Said, a former driver in the NASCAR Craftsman Truck series. He failed to make the field at California Speedway and the road course at Sears Point, and last week fell short in a bid to qualify for the Brickyard 400.
Jeff Gordon, seeking his third straight victory in the race and fifth in a row overall on a road course, qualified third in a Chevrolet. He proved the validity of Said's statement with a fast but flawed lap at 120.632.
"I'm always happy on a road course to bring the car back in one piece," Gordon said. "It was a really smooth lap, but I messed up in the last corner."
Rookie points leader Tony Stewart, driving at the Glen for the first time, qualified fourth in a Pontiac at 120.242. Fifth at 120.234 was the Ford of Mark Martin, who won the race from 1993-95 and also is a four-time road course winner.
Jerry Nadeau, road racer Ron Fellows, Bill Elliott, Jarrett and Terry Labonte rounded out the top 10. Jarrett hit a woodchuck during his qualifying run, but it had little effect on his time.
Cars in the first two rows have won all but five of 16 Watkins Glen races. Getting there Friday was no easy matter, considering the changing weather.
It rained in the morning, forcing the teams through an initial practice on treaded tires. Then the track dried, and out came the slicks. Then it rained again.
Crashing during the pre-qualifying practice were Bobby Labonte and Kenny Irwin, who went to backup cars. Jeremy Mayfield spun out during his qualifying run, but did not make contact.

State and local government debt service or interest payments as a percentage of revenues or budgets is almost always less than ten percent. Sure poorly capitalized projects like incinerator or a specific sewage system can be the exception in some states or cities. With that in mind, use your logic. It does very little for a state or city to stop paying debt payments. You kill your credit rating and raise your borrowing costs huge to save the short term non payment of less than ten percent of your budget costs. It is far easier and smarter to attack the ninety percent of your budget which is discretionary spending. Painful but sensible and is why muni defaults are so low. The pundits creating panic are hoping to create situation where rates rise so much it freezes the credit markets. This is unlikely to last as high triple tax free yields attracts all of us especially the baby boomers all retiring at an accelerating pace the next ten years.

ancient peoples almost universally believed that the world and life were controlled by gods. read their texts and you'll find this to be the case.
let me put it this way
if you went to school and studied the stuff, the very basic principals i put out in my posts are some of the things you'd learn in your first day of class.
do some research, man.
you guys sh#t all over religion, yet you've clearly got a very naive understanding of what it is that religions do or have done. you get caught up in the current workings of religion, and base your understanding of religion as such.
religions generate patterns of belief. they turned an unrelated group of people into "We." until religion came around that hadn't really occurred.
people settled in nomadic groups among family members until the advent of the city, which came about primarily because of farming and religion (literally one of the first things you're taught when you study ancient history, mind you.)
if you don't believe me, again, do your own research.
you'll find the same principals that mr jefferies and i are proposing are some of the most basic in this particular area of academia.

the problem its not religion itself, its extremism... religion serves a purpose, it contains humans most primitive instincts, the belief of a higher being judging your actions at the end of your life and rewarding you accordingly is the best deterrant from crimes.... some doctrines pray love, some pray the sword if you dont agree with thier views, those are the ones that should be erradicated...

We shouldn't bash religion since it has many good things to offer society if it was practiced with reasonable measure. The ten commandments don't seem like bad things. I believe religion allows people hope and keeps them moving forward in a world that is a piece of sh*t, anyway. I believe religion provides some stability in this f*cked up world, and I must admit I don't like the direction this world is heading in. Let's just say, it seems like many people are throwing morals and ethics out the window, without realizing the important role they play in society. I think religion definitely offers good things to people when practiced with reasonable measure.

Its only the crazy ones who live their lives strictly according to their faith. They either say religion stops them from killing people, or kill people in the name of God.
Extremism is just those who have too much religious conviction.
But mocking, and that crappy documentary only makes them more determined to act crazy imo.
Most people arent very accepting of challenges to their opinions when they are slapped in the face with it. Even less so when it is seen as an immoral threat to what they consider their scared righteous truth.

MIAMI -- Milwaukee's first 10 shots were all off the mark. Good thing, or else the Bucks would have made a long night even worse for the fast-fading Miami Heat.
Andrew Bogut had 22 points and 11 rebounds, Carlos Delfino finished with 16 points and 10 rebounds and the Bucks beat Miami for the second time in three nights, 97-81 Monday to climb within two games of the Heat for the Eastern Conference's final playoff spot.
"We definitely have a chance to make the playoffs but it will come down to every game," Bogut said. "Every game is important. Winning these two games is huge."
Charlie Bell and Hakim Warrick each scored 12 for the Bucks, who outscored Miami 54-27 over the final 19½ minutes of the first half to take control.
Dwyane Wade led the Heat with 23 points, including single-handedly scoring the first 11 of the game. From there, the Heat went shockingly cold, setting season-worsts by shooting 17.6 percent in the first quarter and 27.5 percent in the half.
Miami finished shooting 36.4 percent, its third-worst effort of the season.
"Needless to say, that was a very tough evening for us," Heat coach Erik Spoelstra said. "We're going through a little bit of a funk right now as a team. It's a trying time. A lot of teams have gone through this. This is not what we wanted to do right now, but we're here and have to respond and have to help each other get out of this."
Michael Beasley scored 16 and Udonis Haslem finished with 12 points and 10 rebounds for Miami, which has lost four of its past five and plays only one more home game in the next three weeks.
"I think we're going to bounce back," Beasley said. "We've got a tough road trip, but like all year, we respond well in times like this."
The Bucks used a dominant second quarter to take full control on the way to downing Miami 95-84 in Milwaukee on Saturday night. They didn't even wait that long to seize the upper hand in this one.
Wade needed only 4:25 to score the first 11 points, seven of those from the foul line as Miami ran out to its best start of the season.
Then, thud.
Even with Wade's early heroics, the lead didn't last long. After the Bucks' putrid start, they shot 19 for 30 heading into the break.
"Defense started it," Warrick said. "We got some easy buckets and were able to continue to build on it."
Bogut's line alone basically told the story for Milwaukee, which improved to 11-1 since the start of last season when the No. 1 pick in the 2005 draft gets at least 20 points and 10 rebounds.
"He's had a lot of performances where he looks like an All-Star-caliber-type center," Bucks coach Scott Skiles said. "The problems he's had over the years but not as much this year is inconsistency. He's becoming more consistent."
The Heat, they're consistently inconsistent. Now back to .500 at 24-24, it's really the wrong time for Miami to be sliding, too, since a daunting stretch of the season has arrived.
Miami plays eight of its next nine on the road, with five games before the All-Star break. Of those, four are away against teams ahead of the Heat in the Eastern Conference standings: Boston, Cleveland, Chicago and Atlanta.
Then after the break, Miami opens with games at Philadelphia, New Jersey, Memphis and Dallas in a five-night span.
"There's no secret that our schedule before the All-Star break is probably as tough as it gets, pretty much," Wade said. "So you can't really think ahead too much. We know that for us to be where we want to be ... the position where we've been in all year, where we're in the fifth seed, we've got to take care of business."
That didn't happen on Monday.
Miami came within 59-49 in the third quarter, before the Bucks connected for 3-pointers on three consecutive possessions -- the last two by Bell -- to push the lead back to 17, and one of the smaller Heat home crowds of the season was left eerily silent for the remainder of the evening.
"It's never as bad as it seems right now," Spoelstra said. "But we do need to do some soul-searching and figure out how we can get out of this before All-Star break."
Beasley played with a large, bulky knee brace protecting his hyperextended right knee. "A robot," he said. ... The Heat were without starting center Jermaine O'Neal (back spasms). ... The Bucks improved to 9-7 since the calendar flipped to 2010.

Skip to comments.New York Times Will End Print Edition (Eventually), Publisher Says (50% cut in newsroom staff?)
Posted on 09/10/2010 12:17:39 PM PDT by jimbo123
While speaking at a conference in London, chairman and publisher of The New York Times Arthur Sulzberger, Jr. made a major statement about the future of his publication: "We will stop printing The New York Times sometime in the future, date TBD."
(Excerpt) Read more at theatlantic.com ...
How about tomorrow ?
You can only fool the "rubes" with your lies for only so long.
I see their non-print editions swirling down the drain also.
Gotta save those trees, you know..............
Well wouldn't that just be the bees knees!
Naw, gimme time to stock up firestarter for the winter heating season...
You mean all the fawning pro-Islamic puff pieces cannot save them?
Maybe the Saudis ccan send Carlos Slim $500 million to keep the S.S. NY Times afloat a bit longer.
Newsroom staff reduction. For all intents and purposes the NYT only has editorial and columnists now.
I'll be toasting this news in an hour and 44 minutes.
Just when I was thinking about starting to get it. Despite its liberal point of view and you're having to weed through it, it still has pretty good in-depth info on some things.
Stop the Presses!!! Literally.
It would be a lot better off if pinch was in the half that is leaving. I doubt that happens.
...it's done!
I wonder if an omsbudsman will declare a fatwa on me now.
While they were not above mixing some opinion with fact, the opinion was usually mainstream.
Once they "went liberal" that began the descent into taking sides, trying to hurt the opposition and then, partisan assinations. As the opinion became more and more left of center, the subscriptions declined steadily.
Bottom line, they did themselves in with liberalism, but they really did it to themselves. The public just stopped trusting the NYT.
This is why the left is fighting to control the interweb.
I'll go chill the champagne.
They should have had a comics section. Buyers are loyal to their favorite strips and some could be counted on chosing one paper over another based on the strips it carried. And whoa no one wants to face the wrath of a Garfield fan if you drop the "wrong" series.
Bird cage owners devastated!
True for most newspapers and other paper periodicals. The convenience and portability factor of a newspaper isn't quite there yet in electronic format, but the writing is on the screen. There might be some call for paper publications, much like horse carriage rides, but most people take motorized vehicles. It doesn't matter which brand of carriage you're talking about - they will all be replaced.
OK, everybody, how is Carlos Slim going to get his 250 Million back? Being as how there was never a public statement as to his reason for making such a substantial investment in a dead whore, so to speak, he must have gotten clear title to the whorehouse itself.
Oh happy day.
Oh happy day.
Carlos Slim will get his money back when the NY Times fires 50% of their newsroom staff, stops buying paper and stops paying printing and distribution costs once the paper edition stops printing.
Another corrupt tabloid owned by the DNC takes a hook to the jaw. Good riddance to this rubbish.
Poor babies. Maybe they find a job where their skills are transferable - like shoveling bull manure.
Yuck. The "sermon" consisted of reading a New York Times editorial bashing Bush. I kid you not.
I also found it interesting that after the "service" they would come around with a cart and pick up all the "hymnals". When I asked them about this, they said it was because the congregation would steal them if they didn't.
Now that's funny. That isn't a frat-boy reunion is it? Har...
The 'Arts and Lesuire' section is far and away the best thing in it.
"Oh Happy Day"
There's a huge market for non-liberal slanted news. If the NY Times wants to change business models perhaps they could consider that instead of cutting staff?
I do not read the New York Times, but I know that it influences what local papers print. Newspaper reporters are lazy, and they would rather print another paper's work than do the work themselves. The NYT is a disgrace, and it has done much damage to this country. It has been run by liberal ideologues for decades. It cannot die fast enough for me.
If one really needed a good laugh from the Times, there was always the editorial page.
Thanks trisham. Awesome version! Not sure I'd ever heard the original before.
Agree, I was just making a point.
It's a wonderful song. :)
Die, Timesy, die!
Not to worry. Obama will give them all government jobs as propaganda czars - paid for with your tax dollars.
How about right now? Why wait?
But their commercial emphatically states, The New York Times has the best journalists, and there no denying that. (Sarc)
Poetic justice!
ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha
Their comics section is represented by Paul Krugman and Frank Rich.
This complicates the mopup spill handling at my house.

The Aiken County Sheriffs Office is investigating a rash of nearly two dozen vehicle break-ins reported in the Graniteville and North Augusta areas Sunday.
Deputies had 17 vehicle break-in calls in Graniteville and North Augusta and found that 20 vehicles had been broken into during those incidents; some of the homes had multiple vehicles entered, according to reports.
The break-ins in North Augusta were concentrated to Lake Greenwood Drive, Lake Lanier Court, Lake Murray Drive and Dove Lake Drive.
The ones in Graniteville occurred on Fairway Drive, Fairmont Drive, Bastian Court and Ackerman Drive.
As of Tuesday, no arrests have been made in relation to the break-ins, according to Sgt. Jason Feemster, a spokesman for the Sheriffs Office.
Some of the victims reported electronic items, money or financial transaction cards missing, but many reported nothing missing at all and said their glove boxes or consoles were only rummaged through, police said.
Of 17 calls, 13 of the owners said they left their vehicles unlocked, according to reports. Other owners said they believed their vehicles were locked, or that they werent sure.
Make sure your vehicle doors are locked, and do not leave valuables in the vehicle, Feemster said.
Teddy Kulmala covers the crime and courts beat for the Aiken Standard and has been with the newspaper since August 2012. He is a native of Williston and majored in communication studies at Clemson University.

Customer Reviews
Fun but RIGGED
Kinda fun at 1st but completely rigged to try and force you to buy premium. Even if you don't care about additional towns it's rigged so you will lose your money no matter what (tried new game 3 times) and even if you own the whole town rent is not enough for buy in. You can't skip a day to save up rent because game won't let you without playing at least one game of poker which you can't do when you run out of money unless you buy more! Oh and if you travel to the coal mine (which says takes 3 days) and back (6 days total) you still will not earn rental! No free game rigged to try and get you to spend real $$ right from the get go so be prepared!!
Take it back a few versions, let us play the whole map without having to "upgrade"
Having to pay to get farther on the map is a joke. It takes all the fun out of it. I'm sure you get a fair amount of money from all the people that play it and have to pay real $$ to get coins in the game to able to play. Also, being forced to play a tournament each day is a joke, and not collecting rent when you travel is also a joke.
Rigged for everyone but you
Your good hands just never seem to be good enough. Pretty consistent too. Your two pair their trips. Your trips or straight their flush. Your flush their full house. It's a money maker for them if you buy chips. Maybe that's why I am stuck, I'm cheap

Translation: Please keep buying this worthless stock so that my pumper bosses don't fire my sorry donkey. And the ten shares I own will go to palookaville, zip, nada.
As usual another demented, incoherent response from licker-in-chief. lol
News? Knucklehead-in-chief TLOC laid an egg and is squawking his head off. That's the big news du jour.
You're sitting in a pile of something for sure. Definitely not shares. lol
Keep yapping, fool. That hole is getting deeper. lol
Too much licking and not enough (buy) clicking in my opinion. lol,
Doubt if you bought anything in the recent past. My guess, you are a paid pumper. Possibly an employee of STMP.
You do realize that when (not if) the doodoo hits the fan your ID will be uncovered by the legal eagles and you will be pilloried for fraudulent inducement of unsuspecting investors. Good luck. You will need it.
Any precious insights from the knucklehead-in-chief?
Cyberstalker? lol. Don't flatter yourself. Usually, I don't bother with all the disagreeable personalities I stumble across on the Internet. But, you with your trite slogans and supercilious attitude, have this big sign on your back that says "Kick Me". So here I am. Get used to it and wear your big boy pants instead of diapers.

Accommodations were fine. I spent more to get a glass balcony and was very happy I did. We had many days of great weather and was able to sit out, drink my coffee and enjoy the ocean views. While the rooms aren't large, they were perfectly adequate. The staff did a great job keeping it clean. In fact the service in the entire ship was top notch.
I was surprised by the high quality of the food. Despite serving over 1000 at a time, the quality remained high. I'm a vegetarian and was pleased that there was always two and sometimes three options for entrees.
Entertainment was great. In one trip I heard classical, jazz, swing, harp and more. And all the musicians were great. But the real treat was seeing Roger Daltrey live. He was not announced but played twice, once in the theatre and once in the pub. It will be hard to top that!
I enjoyed running on the deck and the fitness centre. Although I was surprised there were surcharges for fitness classes. I also enjoyed the lectures, they were a nice way to spend an hour.
The only real surprise for me, as a first timer, was the amount we could feel the motion of the ship. The seas were not rough but one day there was a lot of movement and I even got a little sea sick. It's just a point for anyone else who is a first timer!

Farming game lovers got Hayday on their favorite list. It is developed and published by Supercell. It was first released on June 21 of 2013 for iOS and available on Apple App store. The game was also released for Android on the 20th of November the same year which is available on Google Play. It was reported that it's the game with fourth highest profit in 2013. It is the top Android game casual app with over a hundred million download from Google Play, a trendy product of Supercell. If you love farming and simulation activities, Hayday will definitely keep your internal agriculturist gaga all night and it is visually delightful.
On the other hand, as I mentioned, only Apple and Android users can play the game. And we all know that those are the top two Smartphone OS worldwide. But of course, Windows phone comes third and so many users as well around the globe who pleaded for Hayday on their gizmo. The artwork of the game is the greatest asset you can notice on it, it's an eye candy. To get a portable game, Hayday's exposition is fairly cinematic. It is a very simple game; you are the manager of the farm and you need to put it on a financial success, just like other games from Facebook like Farmville. So,this really shows that Hayday is also possible for Windows, but not at this time maybe.
It's nice to know that people are going online and create forums and threads to shout out their pleas, requests and ideas about the game even if it is not currently possible. Unfortunately, there are threads that suggest and provide links on how to download and install the game that is not currently supported like the PC. These emulator programs pretty messes up the game. It was reported that the program they provides on thread, changes the real programming of the game to allow them to play on their unsupported device for which of course they are not designed for. So this means that they are opening their devices into a myriad of bugs. This will not be supported by their Customer Support or aid in anyway with any issues people may have on the game, whether it's because of the emulator or not.
Up to this point, the question is why Supercell still hasn't put it on Windows yet. Supercell is very much aware about the number of audience that will be added if people will see it on their PC. However, they have already professed that although the concept is not totally rolled out; there is still no intention in the future to apply a PC version of any of their games. They wanted to focus first on mobile device market for the time being.

The Miami Heat and LeBron James have taken their fair share of criticism ever since "the decision." Okay that's an understatement; it's been more than a fair share. Everyone has felt the need to voice their own opinion on the matter whether reporters have asked them or not.
The list of detractors is seemingly greater than the supporters. We've heard from current players, former players, coaches, owners and GM's. All the while Pat Riley stood quiet behind the scenes without uttering a word. That changed September 10th when Riley finally ended his silence.
Here are some of the things he had to say to all the Heat critics:
"Get a life."
"I take a little bit of umbrage to some of the things that came from people in our game that all of a sudden have become the moral conscience or moral authority on the decisions that every team or some individual might make concerning his life or his career."
Riley's most significant quote provides the basis for my article:
"I know one thing, we will show up and we will play games. And our team will be ready. And I think that's the way we can answer all the critics."
The Miami Heat organization strives on preparation and you can guarantee they will be ready when the NBA kicks off the regular season Oct. 26th with the Miami Heat vs. Boston Celtics. Aside from their intense conditioning they have one of the great motivators in Pat Riley, President of the team.
Riley will take every critic's words and use them to fire up the team. LeBron James' twitter comment demonstrates that possibility: "Don't think for one (minute) that I haven't been taking mental notes of everyone taking shots at me this summer. And I mean everyone!"
Riley has taken mental notes too and expect them to be on the bulletin board before every game. The following are possible statements that will make it on that board.

Eleven women will compete in the International Pancake Day Race in Liberal this year, facing off against 25 runners in Olney, England. Last year's winner, Hannah Belton of Liberal, is hanging up her apron after claiming the 2015 title with a time of 1:09. The Olney winner from last year, Emma Maitland, is also sitting this year out.
Where did the first three weeks of 2016 go? If you are like me, you are just now getting used to writing 2016 on letters and checks. Since it is still early in the year it seems like the perfect time to encourage putting some money away. A less than robust economy and daily news from the stock exchange makes everyone a bit cautious with their spending. When the family budget tightens savings may take a back seat. We often hear of people who are living pay check to pay check.
I was driving to the grocery store last Wednesday and passed the high school football field about 4:00 in the afternoon. There were several kids playing ball with a skiff of snow on the ground. It occurred to me that some of the athletic success in Kansas might be predicated on the innate drive of our kids to get out and joyfully play in less than perfect weather conditions. I then thought that possibly the majority of all our outdoor activities happen in adverse conditions. My conclusion is that Kansas really does have some of the best people living ...

A food guide system, known as "MyPlate" was introduced more than 5 years ago. It is easy to relate to the plates of food we enjoy throughout our day. When we pay close attention to the food groups we are reminded that half the plate should be filled with vegetables and fruits. Another large portion of grains, (preferably whole) and a small portion of food containing protein complete our plate. A serving of calcium rich food should also be included several times per day.
I learned gun safety from my father. He loved to hunt quail and took me with him at every opportunity. At age 5 or 6, it was a BIG DEAL to get to go with him and watch the dogs and take quail home for my mother and grandmother to prepare for dinner or breakfast. I have never dined any better.

As 2015 comes to an end and we greet a new year it is a good time to reflect on the things you have accomplished as well as the challenges. Did you have goals or expectations that were not met? If so what barriers prevented you from accomplishing these goals?
Hunting waterfowl is expensive, hard-work and frequently a miserable endeavor. I have been addicted to this "sport" for most of my life. I totally forget about the process when I am sitting in the blind or laying in the field with the sky full of motion and sound.
While I was preparing information to share at my recent holiday program I came across an article in the December issue of the "You Asked It" newsletter from K-State Research and Extension. The baking substitutions below can be handy to remember for any holiday. They are from the MD Anderson Cancer Center, 15 Healthy Holiday Baking Substitutes.
This time of year, many of us find ourselves spending time with family and friends. In a sense, humans tend to flock together during the holidays.
Barton County 4-H members are asked to nominate members of the community who have given their time and talent to the 4-H program without any expectation of a reward. The clubs present their nominations at a 4-H Council meeting and all clubs have an equal vote. The 2015 Friends of 4-H are Eddie and Cindy Jurgensen and Loren and Cindy Phillips.
