I gave this idea to my semi-friend Frenemy Mcadu, but I can use it too.
Free David Shuster.
By now you may have heard that last week one of my favorite political reporters, David Shuster of MSNBC — who always had an interesting perspective and a fast wit — got taken down, suspended indefinitely, for a perhaps too-free use of a common idiom.
Shuster, on an MSNBC talk show, asked a guest if Chelsea Clinton was being inappropriately "pimped out" by her mother's campaign to do phone-calling to gather delegates.
Here is video of Barbara Walters saying almost what I might say — except I'm not sure I'd do more than a mild apology.
The Clintons have come down on MSNBC like a ton o' bricks, threatening to pull debates, among other things.
They are Sister Souljah-ing David Shuster, a fine reporter who doesn't deserve to get hit with the Clinton bus for the Clintons' own oblique purposes.
Now, my life is so sorry and I've spent so much time in hotel rooms recently that I saw the incident live. It was nothing. Nada. There was me and 12 other people in hotel rooms watching.
And it's generational. I guarantee you Chelsea Clinton, who is a big grown-up 28, for cry-eye, not 12, was not offended. I bet she's used the P-word for 10 years. It no longer has a sexual context to a new group of users. It means "using for gain" or "using inappropriately", not, you know, pimping.
That's so Clinton, to take down a reasonable person trying to do his job in order to gain false sympathy for themselves. The Clintons have more verbal gaffes between them than you and I have vocab words. But why should they be kind or understanding?
But I have to say I appreciate it, because it means I have only three or four people now to choose from in the presidential stakes, not four or five.

text: 000 FXUS63 KMPX 290823 AFDMPX Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Twin Cities/Chanhassen MN 323 AM CDT THU SEP 29 2016 .SHORT TERM...(Today and tonight) Issued at 323 AM CDT Thu Sep 29 2016 Little change in today`s or tonight`s forecast as Minnesota and western Wisconsin will remain between an area of high pressure that was north of the Canadian border, and a storm system in the Ohio Valley. Winds will be lighter today as the storm system and pressure gradient is not as strong. The strongest winds will occur closer to the area of low pressure in southeast Minnesota and west central Wisconsin. Some cloud cover today should quickly dissipate this afternoon as dry air mixes down in the boundary layer. .LONG TERM...(Friday through Wednesday) Issued at 323 AM CDT Thu Sep 29 2016 The massive upper level low centered near KIND early this morning remains on track to sink south into KY by Friday morning and then begin lifting back NNW to the lower Great Lakes by Sunday and then slowly open up and head into New England for early next week. The GFS has come around to the EC idea of this wave over the northeast for early next week which has implications on a western U.S. system, with more on that later. With the upper low lifting northward this weekend, there will be another surge of low/mid level moisture shoved westward into the FA from Friday night through Saturday night. Various solutions are basically dry for the Twin Cities on west with some small pops for areas of western WI. This seems reasonable when looking at 300/305K theta charts which show pretty strong downglide into eastern MN. A little disconcerting however is the Q-Vector convergence moving across western WI and eastern MN in the H5-H3 layer. Just the opposite signal is seen in the H8-H5 layer. For now, it looks like a mostly cloudy day for much of the region on Saturday. One cannot rule out a few sprinkles in eastern MN with a few light showers across western WI. Partly cloudy conditions are then expected for Sunday. For next week, a large upper level low pressure system will push into the western U.S. This feature has been well advertised by the EC/GFS. In the past 24 hours, the GFS has come around to the EC idea of a much slower evolution of this system into the central and northern plains. This goes back to the trough over the northeast early next week which the GFS didn`t have 24 hours ago. Anyway, the 00z CR-Extended grids still had pops racing in here Monday afternoon with areal coverage on Tuesday. This is way too fast and if one were to stay with the EC it wouldn`t likely rain in the Twin Cities until Wednesday afternoon. Therefore, all offices agreed to slow the progression of the pops down, with Monday night and Tuesday morning dry for our FA with small pops allowed into western MN Tuesday afternoon. Chance pops then progress across the FA Tuesday night and Wednesday with lingering chances on the backside of the system for Thursday. High temperatures remain in a very tight range from Friday through next Tuesday with readings a few degrees either side of 70. Highs will then drop into the 50s and 60s by Thursday. Lows are in a range from 45 to 55 through the period. && .AVIATION...(For the 06Z TAFS through 06Z Thursday night) Issued at 1034 PM CDT Wed Sep 28 2016 Clouds have cleared nicely late this evening. Light fog is possible at KSTC/KRNH/KEAU late tonight. KMSP... A few lingering clouds with bases between 3000-5000ft are possible for the morning rush, but VFR is likely. Fog is possible near the airport grounds in the morning but MSP is usually fog resistant unless there has been a lot of rain the day before - which is not the case tonight. /OUTLOOK FOR Fri...VFR. Wind ENE at 5kt Sat...VFR. Wind ENE at 5kt. Sun...VFR. Wind ESE at 5-10kt. && .MPX Watches/Warnings/Advisories... WI...None. MN...None. && $$ SHORT TERM...JLT LONG TERM...RAH AVIATION...CLF

Turkish military fires into Syria for second day after five civilians are killed by shelling in border town
Turkey's parliament has authorised military operations against Syria and its military has fired into the county for a second day after shelling killed five civilians in a Turkish border town.
For its part, Syria admitted it was responsible for the shelling and formally apologised for the deaths, a top Turkish official said.
The border violence has added a dangerous new dimension to Syria's civil war, dragging Syria's neighbours deeper into a conflict that activists say has already killed 30,000 people since an uprising against Bashar al-Assad's regime began in March 2011.

Microsoft Launching a New and Improved Xbox 360 Controller This Holiday Season [Updated]
If you have a favorite console, one aspect of that favoritism usually has something to do with the controller you have to use every day. People love their PS3 controllers, Wii remotes, or Xbox 360 controllers. If you're a fan of the latter, but find yourself playing a lot of the 2D fighting games that are available in Microsoft's LIVE Arcade, then you've probably noticed that the D-pad could still use a little bit of work. According to a reliable source talking to Joystiq, apparently you're about to get your wish.

This edition gives evidence of having been extensively revised to include recent important contributions in the literature. The book covers more material than its title indicates. Information concerning recently established facts on the nature and function of vitamins is given in the forepart of the book. Inclusion of the historical development in each case traces the progress made in knowledge concerning vitamins to the present. The authors offer a rational discussion of the relationship of nutrition to health and disease, pointing out the frequent misconception and overemphasis so often placed on the role of vitamins in nutrition.
The main body of the book covers the experimental and clinical findings associated with deficiency of the vitamins which have been shown to be essential for man and other less well known B factors and vitamin E. The material is covered well from the point of animal studies and observations on human beings,

No Mercy!
|Win a game by 10 or more goals on Pro difficulty or higher in a single-player game.
All you have to do is beat your opponent by 10+ goals in a game on pro difficulty. This can be done in one minute periods. I did this with Vancouver and Ottawa when I was doing no favorites. If you're having a hard time doing this in one minute, than boost up the time a bit and you should be able to do it. I would recommend Ottawa for one main reason and that they have the best offensive first string in the league. Dana Heatly, Daniel Alfredsson, and Jason Spezza are amazing. Spezza has amazing passing ability, speed and puck handling and Alfredsson and Heatly have astounding scoring abilities. With Alfredsson with sliders leaned towards me, I could just grab the puck with him and than hold my slap shot and zoom it in. I had 7 goals in 1 period (1 minute periods) with him the time I had no mercy.

Tyrant: Anti-Arab American hate TV offers new program this summer
By Ray Hanania
One of the most vicious and anti-Arab and anti-Muslim programs on television was Homeland. It replaced the equally anti-Arab hateful program 24, which returned to television last week. Both had one thing in common: The fictional heroes in Homeland (on the notorious anti-Arab cable channel Showtime) and 24 (on the equally notorious anti-Arab cable channel FOX) mainlined into the warped love affair that Americans have with the ugly truth of their wars like crack cocaine.
Americans paint over the horrors that the war in Iraq and Afghanistan created with sanitized fictionalized narratives. They bury the war crimes and play themselves up as victims, always exploiting the fact that 19 terrorists killed nearly 3,000 Americans on Sept. 11, 2001 — some of those Americans were Arab and Muslim. Tens of thousands of Muslims and Arabs who had nothing to do with the Sept. 11, 2001 terrorist attacks were killed, murdered and tortured in order to satiate the American hunger for vengeance. Nothing justified the Sept. 11, 2001 terrorism. But nothing justified the invasion of Iraq and the killing of hundreds and thousands of innocent Arabs and Muslims during the Bush-Cheney-Rumsfeld campaign of vengeance and greed.
The unjustified wars were pretty sad to watch in real life. But to justify the real life hatred that fuels public support of those unjustified wars, television and the movies had to step up to the plate and provide "cover," justifying the atrocities against innocent victims in Iraq, Afghanistan, Yemen, Somalia, Saudi Arabia, Jordan, Syria, Lebanon and Egypt, all places where the official American wars and the secret American wars continue to be prosecuted. Homeland and 24 were two of the most notorious, but not the only ones, for sure.
Being an American military veteran of the Vietnam war, I recognize how hatred drives the anger and hunger for revenge among Americans who served int he U.S. Military but more so the Americans who did not serve in the military but seem to enjoy cheering for war and conflict more than many others.
The latest addition to this Hate the Arabs and Hate the Muslim TV programming is a series called Tyrant which will premiere on the FX TV Network on Tuesday June 24.
I haven't been able to get FX to provide a screener copy so I can precisely evaluate the content of the new series, but from what I have seen so far in the teasers, the emphasis is on hating Arabs, hating Muslims, and especially hating Palestinians. The anti-Palestinian narrative comes from the anti-Arab producer Gideon Raff, the Israeli writer and producer of the anti-Arab hate program Homeland who was born in occupied Jerusalem in 1973.
Knowing how the Israelis love to always play the victim, while pretending that they have never done worse to the Palestinians, Raff has done a great job of spinning the truth through TV fiction to make the Arabs, Muslims and Palestinians appear to be the bad guys, while glorifying the Israelis and Americans, a clever strategy to create a bond with American audiences. There is nothing like fan the flames of hatred against someone else to build a close and tight bond with someone like an American. The Israelis as masters of the PR spin.
What are the Arabs doing to counter this "entertainment" garbage? Absolutely nothing, of course. The one truthful narrative of all of these programs is that the Arab World is run by tyrants and dictators and autocrats and monarchs who care more about the profits they get from the Western countries for their oil production (Saudi Arabia, Iraq) and for their military support (Jordan, Egypt, Yemen). But while these hate programs on American TV portray all Arabs are murderers and blood thirty anti-Semites and terrorist killers of babies, the truth is that the majority of Arabs are more moral and principled than even the most honorable American.
The Arab World doesn't produce this kind of hate entertainment because they don't embrace hatred as easily as do Americans and Israelis.
Here are some trailers from Tyrant, published on YouTube:
Tyrant offers the creative talents of David Yates, the director of the "true-to-life" (sarcasm, of course) Harry Potter series. Yates knows more about embellishing and fabricating narrative and making it compelling to the gullible American audiences better than anyone.
It's a fascinating American world we live in.
On the one hand, many Americans argue that the violence on video games and on television seen by children, teenagers and young people may in fact be a major cause of why so many young Americans pick up guns and then go to their local schools where they try to murder and massacre other American school mates. It happens more often in American schools than it does in schools in any other foreign country.
Yet, if you argued that the television-hate broadcast on Showtime, FOX and FX has the same kind of impact on Americans but even more destructive and threatening, Americans laugh at you. They just refuse to believe that they somehow are capable of being worse than the terrorists who attacked this country on Sept. 11, 2001.
But clearly, the American TV hate programs are a narcotic that fuels that anger, hatred, stereotypes, racism, discrimination and bigotry against Arabs, Muslims and Palestinians. And that must make Raff very happy.
He has done his job to help Israel. I'm sure that maybe next year, Jay Leno will present him the $1 million Genesis Prize in Israeli occupied Jerusalem, which once was the capitol of Christianity but today is a battle ground between Jews and Muslims. (I doubt any TV producer will make a movie about that reality, or that the Arab dictators in the Middle East and the Islamic World would ever think that putting a few million into the movie industry instead of on the Baccarat tables at the world's most lavish casinos — the "Arab Hypocritical Houses of Haram.")

Great green idea! We do go through a lot of paper napkins at our house with three messy boys:)
Wonderful and cute project. The napkins I made just involved taking two 16″ squares (usually from fat quarters), placing them wrong sides together and then serging the edges. Yours are much fancier!

Now that the government is shut down, the most startling aspect of it is that there are so many "Non-Essential Workers".
We've been running $Trillion Dollar Deficits for the past 4 years, and mortgaging our Childrens' future.... a REAL fiscal crisis...
... and we've got a federal government that's all larded up with NON-ESSENTIAL WORKERS????
I run a small business, and I can tell you right here and now that if I was hiring a bunch of non-essential workers like Mr. Obama's been doing, I'd be BANKRUPT.
Only the federal government has money to burn larding up the government with hundreds of thousands of non-essential workers... and spending our hard-earned tax dollars to DO it.
This is insanity!
Worst part is they don't make any kind of profit, so they are only a drain.
It's not insanity but Bernanke and Obama have essentially killed capitalism in order to preserve a bubble economy that they had to save. The housing bubble basically launched huge gains in income to middle tier workers (plumbers, welders, eletricians, real estate agents, builders, etc, etc) allowing these people to spend more money driving up prices in property and demand for cars, vacation homes, etc. Also remember that this increase in property prices also increased taxes in all states through property taxes which meant increases in pay for all municipal workers. This virtuous cycle of spending was great until we found out that it was all a scam based on loose credit and home sales to unqualified buyers (even a dog bought a house).
So if they didn't pump a trillion dollars a year in into the economy what you would of seen was a massive deflationary spiral globally which would of meant a huge recession that would of meant 30% unemployment for years and years. So the US is bankrupt which is why they have to have the raise the debt limit debate every year because the US is paying one credit card with the other credit card hoping that no one notices. It definitely saved the economy but the next bubble is already forming into the stock market bubble as the stimulus money is creeping into sales and the stock market essentially forming a false economy on its own.

Strasbourg success
26 April 2013 by David Fleming
The UK does badly nowadays in the Eurovision Song Contest. So, either our national musical proficiency has declined, or the UK simply isn't everyone's cup of tea when it comes to European voting. It is something of a special surprise then that there is one European vote that the UK has won recently – when the Museum of Liverpool was awarded the Council of Europe Museum Prize for 2013. On Tuesday 23 April I was in the beautiful city of Strasbourg to collect the award, in the magnificent Palais Rohan. Read more…

Is WEP cracking still a worrisome WLAN security issue?
Wireless expert Lisa A. Phifer explains to what extent WEP cracking remains a worrisome issue. It all depends on your company's WLAN security policy.
I'm responsible for our company's WLAN security. Do I still need to worry about WEP cracking, or is that no longer...

Submit your question directly to our editors at email@example.com.
First-generation Wi-Fi products were plagued by vulnerabilities in Wireless Equivalent Privacy (WEP) that made it easy to crack keys used to encrypt wireless LAN (WLAN) traffic. Over the years, WEP-cracking tools have been refined to speed cracking, to the point that WEP should be considered little more than a "keep out" warning sign that deters casual freeloading but won't stop serious intruders.
Read more of Lisa's expert advice
Is 802.1X authentication good enough for WLAN access control?
How the 802.11ac standard impacts security
WPS attack precautions help avoid unauthorized WLAN access
Unfortunately, statistics show that WEP is still widely used today, well over a decade after the first WEP cracking issues. In Information Week's 2012 Mobile Security Survey of 322 business technology professionals, 24% admitted their corporate WLANs still support WEP. And cloud-sourced "war driver" reports gathered by Wireless Geographic Logging Engine (WiGLE) put worldwide SSID security use at 30% for WPA2, 11% for WPA and 25% for WEP at the end of 2012. So, yes, WEP is still alive and kicking and something you should consider.
That said, you may not need to worry about WEP cracking if you don't permit WEP use on your own company WLAN. As long as you require WPA2 (or WPA) for secure connections to your own WLAN, WEP crackers have no relevance one way or the other on the security posture of your network. But you should still monitor your office airspace to make sure that employees have not created their own little unauthorized WLAN using a rogue access point secured with WEP. Of course if you do permit WEP on your company WLAN, my advice is simple: Stop.

Skip to comments.Obama rejoices for Egypt
Posted on 02/11/2011 12:44:17 PM PST by ColdOne
President Obama celebrated the resignation of Hosni Mubarak on Friday, declaring that the president of Egypt responded to the Egyptian peoples hunger for change.
Egypt will never be the same, Obama said in a statement, optimistically. But this is not the end of Egypt's transition. It's a beginning. I'm sure there will be difficult days ahead, and many questions remain unanswered.
Obama called on the Egyptian military, which is now in charge in Cairo, to oversee a transition to power peacefully by protecting the people, lifting an emergency law and revising the constitution. Referring to the Berlin Wall and to Gandhi, he said, Egyptians have inspired us, and he praised protesters nonviolence and moral force to achieve their means.
(Excerpt) Read more at politico.com ...
One very dangerous hombre.
Like. How long til the Obama Brotherhood install Sharia Law?
Obama is nuts.
The guy is way out of control...does he actually think people
are gonna make their actions conform to his wishes?...I
would guess the military of Egypt is gonna do what they
think they can do, and not think about whether they adhere to
the jist of of Obamas comments.
He kind of reminds me of someone who was a big fish in a
very small pond, thinking he understands the whole ocean by
extrapolation of the experiences of his tiny puddle.
That's not to say anyone is much better, but the guy appears
totally pitiful and incorrigible as an executive.
Egypt can have The Messiah, and we'll take a used puck bag, even up......
Tweet if you (heart) Communism!
Obama is insane.
HOw stupid can one person be?
Changing the tinyest tip of a massive corrupt iceberg will change nothing.
The cops will still beat and shake down the average joe, the pols will still line thier pockets and on and on.
The only thing that will change is the amount of misery for the poor - it WILL get worse - much, much worse.
Barry is in way over his head. The world is about to suffer for his childish antics.
Barry The Buffoon
The target is Israel. This is just another move leading up to that day when......
I'm no fan of Mubarak. 30 years is too long as president - or as a congressman for that matter.
But I can't help but think that as the world piles on he is thinking he is going to get the last laugh. I also think Egypt may have just taken that leap from the frying pan into the fire.
He will take credit for this if it turns out good. If not it will be Bush's fault.
No doubt they have taken a leap of faith. But, it is a chance worth taking.
Its already done, just has to be formalized. They have already declared war on Israel and then we are next.
Yay yay ...Obama!
Have you learned how to say alla acqbar yet?
Now we have to deal with the mess this man made.
I would call him an idiot if this didn't seem so calculated. I do believe he really is a muslim, and this is all orchestrated to destroy Israel.
"He will take credit for this if it turns out good. If not it will be Bush's fault."
The Egyptian people deserve the credit if it turns out good and it is the Egyptian people who must take responsibility if it does not.
>>>> Obama rejoices for Egypt
Has ANYBODY rejoiced for Obama's handling of Egypt?

>>No doubt they have taken a leap of faith. But, it is a chance worth taking.<<
It worked for us a couple centuries ago. Usually, though, it is a step down. I think of Iran, South Africa, etc.
>>The target is Israel. This is just another move leading up to that day when......<<
...when Ezekiel 39 unfolds.
Interestingly, for many, many centuries people had a hard time with Ezekiel 39 because there was no "Israel". It was as relevant as Canaan.
Then came 1948, and everything changed.
What is the makeup of the population there. Are there enough, er, "committed Muslims" to pull the whole thing down into a jihadic misery?
I am so excited for Obama saving the world again,that now I will help stimulate the US economy buy spending $9.00 at the Dollar Tree store! maybe buy some straws and imitation root beer.
If the Muslim Brotherhood ends up in charge of Egypt it's on your head, Zero.
He should be saying this in his native Arabic. It would have more impact, and the American press wouldn't have to cover it to have people like us rip to shreds as the Alinsky/Mahdi cipher that it is.
Barry's speech started on the car radio and about halfway through I broke into a spontaneous chorus of "Kumbaya."
America's greatest sin. The greatest crime against humanity and the beginning of many genocides.
He has already created 2 years of MB plans which are in the works today..the mid east and Islam have been seeded for consolidation .... and there are another two years in front of us...I doubt we can make it unscathed.
Very very true.
So a million or so Americans can gather in front of the White House, tossing rocks and stuff and demand the usurper-in-chief to resign and that's all there is to it? Let's go!
when ...
Please finish your sentence. I'd love to hear what you have to say!
I think that we are definitely in the End Times and the events in the Middle East are building towards ...
"He kind of reminds me of someone who was a big fish in a
very small pond, thinking he understands the whole ocean"
More like a turd in the punchbowl.
The bottom line is that there is no way the military will cede power to radical Muslims.
With Jerusalem and Mecca and Medina in the crosshairs for the caliphate, and seeing what just took place in Egypt and our leader's involvement in the uprising there, I wouldn't be surprised if Israel and Saudi Arabia have a completely different perspective about Obama today. What that portends going forward only time will tell.

Ask the Foodist
The BA Test Kitchen devised this dish, comprised of cheese grits, bacon-braised bok choy, deep-fried pork belly glazed with honey and Sriracha, and the crowning glory, a fried egg. Is fat on fat on fat too much of a good thing?
Photograph by Diane Fields
Dear Foodist: I like the occasional superrich dish, but aren't today's restaurant menus a bit overloaded with bacon-this and duck fat-that? –Stuffed
Dear Stuffed:
You mean you don't like seared foie gras and cheese curds on top of french fries, finished with foie gras-larded gravy? Unless it's midnight and some questionable decisions have led me to crave such a dish, I'll pass, too. I'm not above the gut-busting pleasures of so-called stoner cuisine. But with every gastropub and pork-crazed spot in the country taking up the mantra "more is more," when it comes to flavor, I've had my fill. Remember when appetizers were meant to stimulate the appetite? Now they often bludgeon it. Salt and fat have become culinary crutches for many chefs who've adopted the fast-food mentality of more calories and more gimmicks. Over-the-top flavor trumps subtlety and can cover up bad technique and a lack of imagination. (It doesn't take a culinary wizard to know that bacon adds flavor.) I'm certainly not calling for the next incarnation of nouvelle cuisine. I'm simply asking for a little moderation and a lot more creativity. –Andrew Knowlton

Multiple engine antivirus protection
Articles 360 Total Security
360 Total Security is one of the most complete and effective free antivirus programs available, and will protect you from the majority of threats you might face online.
Virus protection and more
The antivirus uses five antivirus engines, including 360 Cloud Engine, CVMII, Avira, and Bitdefender. Scanning your PC for threats is quick, and we were impressed by its attention to detail. For example, if removing a detected threat requires a PC restart, 360 Total Security will tell you.
The Avira and Bitdefender engines are disabled by default. This is good, as enabling them increases RAM usage, but you have them as an option if you want to be extra secure. 360 Total Security also includes an optional browser extension which will notify you if any pages you visit are potentially malicious. This seems like overkill to us, as most browsers today will warn you if a site is not secure or dangerous.
Use with care
The Speed Up and Clean Up features are mixed blessings. Both work, but are not as user friendly as they could be. You may find with Clean Up that it suggests deleting files that cannot be deleted as they are in use, which is annoying.
Speed Up does indeed free up RAM allowing you more power to run games and resource hungry apps. but we did have some problems. We had to reinstall Google Chrome after running Speed Up, as it had made changes without warning us, meaning Chrome no longer worked.
Easy to use and not intrusive
360 Total Security is really easy to use, with a clear interface that's simple to navigate. It explains what every feature does, and it's easy to configure. If you're looking for an antivirus solution that's not intrusive and lets you get on with whatever you're doing, 360 Total Security is a good choice.
- Free and complete
- Good interface
- Uninstrusive
- Turning on all antivirus engines uses a lot of RAM
- Clean and Speed Up tools must be used with care

Skip to comments.Breaking: Sen. Claire McCaskill, D-Mo., Failed to Pay $287,000 in Property Taxes on Aircraft
Posted on 03/21/2011 3:12:17 PM PDT by BallandPowder
In a conference call with reporters, Missouri Senator Claire McCaskill just disclosed that she failed to pay $287,000 in property taxes related to her co-ownership of a private aircraft. This scandal comes quickly on the heels of recent revelations that McCaskill improperly billed taxpayers for use of the same private aircraft, for which McCaskill reimbursed the Treasury $88,000:
(Excerpt) Read more at weeklystandard.com ...
You're done Claire. Crook.
What are you talking about? She's a Democrat. She'll be promoted.
Wait - she's got a D after her name. Nothing to see here.
Our communists control government will do nothing.
Another one?
Let her know what you think! This is huge and should be picked up nationally.
resume' enhancement
Utterly despicable. She has earned the enmity of all decent people with that statement; easily the most repugnant and loathsome statement I've ever heard from a modern American politician. I will relish her defeat.
A member of the elected elites does it? It's more along these lines:
Well, when I found out about this I was furious. We've launched an intense internal investigation, with the cooperation of the Missori Department of Taxation and Finance, the Phelps County Prosecutor's Office, and the Senate Investigative Service, and nobody wants to get to the bottom of this more than I do. And I can assure the public that as soon as I know the answers, they'll know the answers. And now, because this is an active investigation, I will not be able to take any questions at this time.
I know democrats are at the front of the line demanding that punishment be dished out when an ordinary person even accidentally forgets to pay taxes !
I think she should be paying a big penalty also. We little folks do if we even make a small mistake!
Powder..patch..ball FIRE!
Different headline, did a search on the subject before posting.... lalalala
Powder..patch..ball FIRE!
Glad to see it....
You forgot about Martin. And how exactly is Akin second-tier?
And the crooks just keep on coming. And every last one of the have been endorsed by Barry Soetoro!
These flaming thugs should be sentenced and thrown into jail, yesterday.
And this bitch helped push through Obammy Care.
They are pure evil!
Excellent Lockerbie graphic. Looks good with the clowns in front.
Thanks potlatch
I have been adding a Rio flavor to a variation of the Jesters.gif
I know, I saw a lot of it yesterday.
There's more!
I believe Pelosi was spending over $25,000 a month in US taxpayers bucks just for booze for herself and her family and groupies on the exec jet she grabbed
She spent a horrific amount on liquor, food and flowers all the time. I've read all about it but can't keep records handy on all that stuff.
Now she's fainted in Italy and was in the hospital??
What would Harry Truman say? I hope Missourians are true to their "Show Me State" motto and vote this crook out.
They said Pelosi fainted, she probably fell over drunk. I wonder how was that socialist health care over there?
Good! Property taxes should be illegal.
Lol, I don't know if she is a big drinker but it could be so. And - she would get the best of health care, not what you and I would, that's for sure.
Chairman Zero must be about to lose a Cabinet member. Claire is just showing she's qualified.
I disagree those are second-tier candidates (except for perhaps Wagner). I saw polling showing Steelman apparently leading for the nomination, but the big problem she faces is a visceral opposition from the MO GOP establishment. An ugly GOP primary is the only saving grace for McCaskill at this point.
If Sarah Steelman were to win the nomination, one hopes that the state GOP would have the good sense to rally around her.
Powder..patch..ball FIRE!
Ed Martin — He almost took out Russ Carnahan in the 3rd district... The STL vote manufacturing machine is the only reason he lost.
He is a solid conservative.
Pelosi most have found some Mafioso was cutting into her share of the action in Italy
If this bitch doesn't go to jail, they should release Wesley Snipes from jail right now.
It has been quiet for Sarah Palin threads
The sleepers will wake up now
I've been reading and they say just the opposite. Don't want to say much here.
I don't think that's a second tier field, personally. Steelman has won statewide office and narrowly lost the GOP governor primary to Kenny Hulshof. Todd Akin is a respected congressman from the wealthy west county St. Louis suburbs. Ann Wagner is a former chairman of the Missouri GOP. All good choices, IMO. I really like Akin a lot - he's a conservative's conservative.

Two books take pulse of once-great Detroit
Performing in November at the Joe Louis Arena in downtown Detroit, Madonna - a Michigan native who was raised in the Detroit suburbs - told the crowd how good it was "to be back home." "Detroit is having a comeback," she enthused. "I can feel it in my bones!"
As a native son of this once-proud city, I fervently want to believe that Madonna is right. »Read Full Article(1)
Joy Formidable's live show can't match studio sound
The Joy Formidable delivered a blistering set at Summerfest last July Fourth. But something's changed since that hot summer night: The Welsh alternative rock trio's studio ambitions and accomplishments have outgrown its live capabilities.
The band returned to Milwaukee Tuesday to perform at a surprisingly spacious Turner Hall Ballroom. (Perhaps the Tuesday date turned people off? Or maybe the band's played the market too many times recently?) For Tuesday's 90-minute set, it had new material to share from its bold January album, "Wolf's Law." »Read Full Article(6)

The Tap Pre-Show: See the Last Bison perform 'Switzerland' in our studio
The Last Bison is a family affair. Actually two families. Frontman Ben Hardesty's father Dan does the banjo and mandolin, with Ben's sis Annah on bells and percussion. Andrew Benfante handles reed organ and the melodica, and brother Jay is on drums and percussion. Then "honorary relatives" Teresa Totheroh (Annah's best friend) plays violin, with Annah's boyfriend Amos Housworth on cello.
With their talents combined the Virginia folk revival act has made one of my favorite songs so far this year "Switzerland," appearing on its debut album "Inheritance" for Republic Records (home of the Avett Brothers and Of Monsters and Men). The combination of whimsical xylophone and banjo, the beauty of violin and cello, and the gruff passion of Ben Hardesty's voice really gets under my skin. »Read Full Blog Post

Lot to run through in the Concert Corner chat this week. A whopping 96 bands were announced last week to play Summerfest and the Harley-Davidson 110th Anniversary. And then there was Garbage's return to Milwaukee for the first time since 2005. Plus there's a lot to look forward to this week: the Joy Formidable, the Last Bison, the WAMI Awards.

Felipe Fuentes (born May 25, 1971) is a Democratic politician from the San Fernando Valley in the U.S. state of California, formerly a member of the Los Angeles City Council from the 7th district. He is currently a lobbyist.[1]
Fuentes won election to the California State Assembly for the 39th district on a May 15, 2007 special election. He slightly exceeded the 50%+1 margin needed to avoid a runoff. Prior to serving in the Assembly, Fuentes served as Chief of Staff to then Los Angeles City Councilman Alex Padilla.
Fuentes graduated from UCLA (1994) where he received his bachelor's degree and Pepperdine University (2004) where he received his masters in business administration (MBA).[2]
Fuentes began his career promoting immigrant and children's rights at the Center for Human Rights and Constitutional Law. In 1999, Fuentes began serving the 7th council district of Los Angeles as a field deputy to then City Councilmember Alex Padila. In 2001, he worked on then City Attorney James Hahn's campaign for Mayor. After Hahn's election, he was appointed Deputy Mayor of the San Fernando Valley. Fuentes managed the Mayor's Office of the Neighborhood Advocate, Volunteer Corps, Constituent Services, and the Targeted Neighborhood Initiative. He was the Mayor's liaison to the Department of Neighborhood Empowerment, Animal Services, and the Department of Building & Safety.
As Chief of Staff to Los Angeles City Council President Alex Padilla, Fuentes helped establish a pilot program to implement the "Safe Routes to Schools" initiative in the Northeast San Fernando Valley. He worked to help bring the first new police station to the San Fernando Valley in twenty-five years, and to create effective anti-gang programs.
Felipe is a lifelong resident of the Northeast San Fernando Valley of Los Angeles and now resides in Sylmar, Los Angeles with his wife, Lena Wu-Fuentes. Lena and Felipe are parents to a daughter.

A very old name, from the 16th century, Scottish in origin, meaning "from the dark river." A man who has deep insights, mystical powers and isn't afraid to explore both the dark and light sides of life, seeing them as all one. A person of great understanding, having wisdom that accrues with age. Very public persona, but deeply private in many ways.

To ram a sexual partner from behind with great, desperate velocity, usually with lips pursed, buttocks clenched and jowls shaking. Derived from the Michael Douglas style of explicit onscreen sex in the 1990s. Can also be used figuratively.

Riverwest Fest rocks to the end of the world
If it was the end of the world as we know it, the bands and spectators at Riverwest Fest appeared to feel fine.
Contrary to the Mayan calendar, the world did in fact not come to an end on Friday (as of this story's 10 p.m. deadline anyway), so plans for the third annual local music bash proceeded as planned. The two-day event's grown to be one of the largest showcases of music in the city; by the time the fest wraps up Saturday, about 66 bands should have played nine different venues. »Read Full Article(1)

It's a beautifully rendered tribute that also channels the core message in what Pickering rightly calls "the greatest secular fable of human redemption ever written": our ability to change and grow, playing many roles and living multiple lives, if we can but open our hearts to the love and dedication of those many people challenging us to be our best selves. »Read Full Article

MINNEAPOLIS — On Tuesday, the Minnesota Court of Appeals upheld the convictions of Olga Franco del Cid, who in February 2008 ran a stop sign and struck the side of a school bus, killing four students on board and injuring 17 others.
Franco del Cid is serving a 12 1/2-year prison sentence after a Kandiyohi County jury convicted her on 24 counts for the accident near Cottonwood. An attorney for the woman, who claimed that her then-boyfriend was the driver, argued on appeal that the evidence against her was insufficient, the Star Tribune reports.
However, in a 29-page decision, a three-judge panel ruled that even though both sides presented conflicting evidence at trial, it's up to a jury to decide what to believe and which testimony is credible.
"There was sufficient evidence to allow the jury to find that the state had proven beyond a reasonable doubt that appellant was driving the car," Judge Francis Connolly wrote.
Franco del Cid's attorney, Manuel Guerrero, also argued on appeal that statements she made in the hospital after the crash were given involuntarily and should not have been allowed, that jury instructions were given in error, and that statements made by the prosecutor and witnesses amounted to misconduct.
The Star Tribune reports that the justices rejected those arguments.
