I regret to inform you that Tavis Smiley and Cornel West are winning the culture war and conservatives are going to lose their voice in government in November.
More and more Americans are enthusiastic supporters of a failed Administration.
You can see it in the video and on the faces of the people my team interviewed this week. They are enthralled with leaders who aggressively push for the public funding of EVERYTHING.
In the black community, these socialist leaders are even celebrities.
This week I sent you a video about a book signing at Barnes and Noble for black activists Tavis Smiley and Cornel West. In their new book, they say that capitalism has failed even at getting dinner on the table.
In their "Poverty Manifesto," they propose a "Universal Food Delivery System." "If we do this one right," they write, "America can demonstrate its ability to tackle and solve complex human problems."
That's right, West and Smiley believe that America's free markets have not solved "complex human problems" like getting food on the table!
The reality is, they don't trust Americans to even to feed ourselves.
And many Americans believe them.
Wherever Smiley and West arrive, they don't get protested. They get cheers and crowds. No one wants to argue with them because they're black.
But I will.
Will you help me expose Smiley's and West's plan to poison our communities with Socialist command-and-control economics with an immediate generous financial contribution of $50, $100, $250, $500, $1,000 or even $2,500 right now?
Believe it or not, my work isn't too different from Tavis Smiley and Cornel West.
Except my message is one of hope and freedom. And I don't lie, spread hate or class warfare!
I travel America and talk to people about real problems in our neighborhoods and country through the media and in our churches and provide specific policy solutions that are based on the free-market.
I know about the real solutions to poverty because I lived them.
But now with Smiley and West spreading lies about capitalism and personal responsibility -- the very system that can lift everyone out of poverty -- I'm needed to spread the truth and correct their lies, now more than ever.
These two welfare hucksters have an impact on the black community that we can't ignore. If two people can have such an influence by peddling poverty, will you help me tell my story so I can give the keys to prosperity and freedom?
They're proof that it only takes one person to make a difference and you know my powerful story about being on and off of welfare for seven miserable years.
I can't let them have a monopoly on ideas in our black communities.
I speak out about what these "poverty" policies do to destroy our cities and communities. I go to Congress and colleges where they never hear a respected black leader give a speech unless it's promoting socialism. And I rally the tea parties.
We cannot give up at this crucial point when the tide is rising against us.
I regret to inform you, Smiley's and West's poverty plan is the future of our country if no one sounds the warning. Minorities have swallowed these lies for years, but Smiley and West are captivating more and more Americans, and soon we'll all be ensnared by disaster.
Help me share my story with those who need to hear it most by following this link and giving an urgent contribution of $50, $100, $250, $500, $1,000 or $2,500 right now.
Thank you so much for your continued generous financial support. Because of you, and supporters like you, I'm able to devote my life to protecting the values that make America the greatest country in the world.
Together we can liberate America!

Life is not about you, but about others. (comments)
Hate, destructiveness and envy do not make this world a better place. Work, creativity and personal responsibility do. (comments)
It sounds so compassionate that a politician proposes to use the power of government to mandate what salary a business owner must pay. (comments)
The issue of black poverty, and black children in poverty, has not suffered from lack of attention. (comments)
Secularists relate to government, not as a protector, but as a tool of aggression to force others to accept and live with values they reject. (comments)
A leader in a diverse country is to keep things going in generally the right direction -- compromise is always part of the game. (comments)
The idea of the Olympics as a platform for promoting peace and goodwill among nations is particularly weak today. (comments)
Militant left wing blacks like Jesse Williams only care when tragedy serves their message of victimhood and oppression. (comments)

This iReport is part of an assignment:
Hurricane season 2012
Typhoon Sanba Sets Sights For Okinawa.
It seems like just yesterday when Typhoon Bolaven passed through Okinawa. Although for some Bolaven is now out of sight and out of mind now it's time to focus on Sanba.
What was only a tropical depression on Tuesday had now developed into a category two with an expected strength of a category four by the time that it passes through Okinawa. Although the current projected path does not have Sanba crossing directly over Okinawa it will be coming quite close which as a category four can cause a great deal of damage.Current projections show the peak Sanba's strength hitting Okinawa on Sunday although with the storm still a few days out it may be too soon to determine exactly when we will expect the strongest parts of the storm.
Although Okinawa's structures are built for this type of weather there is a slightly higher risk that residents face when two large storms approach one after the other. This risk is especially higher in areas which have not fully recovered from the last storm.

Sometimes these things take time. It sounds like you are aware of what you need... if you start now working towards it, it will happen... okay you don't like coffee shops, maybe you can start a poly crafting circle... a friend of mine here has a poly "stitch and bitch" at her house once a month... everyone comes and sew, knits, whatever... hangs out and talks, gets projects done. Its a great way to kill two birds with one stone.
Being creative might mean that you will meet some people without putting too much pressure on yourself. If you know this, adapt your ideas to it. I bet there are other poly people that are just as anxious about meeting people in coffee shops. Never know who you will find until you start getting on inviting and creating events that suit you.
Good luck

Wives earning more than their husbands, 1987-2006
January 09, 2009
In 1987, 18 percent of working wives whose husbands also worked earned more than their spouses; in 2006, the proportion was 26 percent.
Among all married-couple families in which the wife (but not necessarily the husband) had earnings from work in 2006, 33 percent of the wives earned more than their husbands. This is about a third higher than the 1987 figure of 24 percent.
These data on earnings are from the Current Population Survey. For more information see "Women in the Labor Force: A Databook (2008 Edition)," BLS Report 1011.
Bureau of Labor Statistics, U.S. Department of Labor, The Economics Daily, Wives earning more than their husbands, 1987-2006 on the Internet at http://www.bls.gov/opub/ted/2009/jan/wk1/art05.htm (visited September 28, 2016).

"Love Yourself" is the first children's book written by world-renowned poet, Khari Toure. Based on the viral video "Love Yourself," this book empowers children who have been bullied, by teaching them how to be confident in the face of criticism. This book teaches children the true meaning of self-love and acceptance, and uses positive thinking and affirmations to help children embrace and appreciate who they are. The book will be available in August 2016.
(Available on iTunes and Amazon.com)
Khari is a world renowned poet, spoken word artist, published author, and music producer. He has performed at over 100 venues throughout the country, gracing stages from New Orleans to the Nuyorican, Atlanta to Denver. In 2014, he released his groundbreaking, spoken word/neo-soul album "Through Thick and Thin."
In 2014, Khari also released his first book, "Curvy and Confident: Inspiring Women to Love Themselves."

A tan can let people know that you've been at the beach or convince them that you haven't been living in their closet for that long. Stop hiding your beauty with this Groupon.
Choose from Three Options
- $19 for one custom spray tan (a $50 value)
- $25 for one week of UV tanning in a Future Sun Bed (a $69 value)
- $55 for three custom spray tans (a $150 value)
A spray-tan artist takes up to 30 minutes to evenly spritz the skin with a customized solution that leaves behind a natural-looking glow. During a week of UV tanning, clients can spend up to 10 minutes per day for seven consecutive days in a Future Sun Bed.
Though Copper Tans Salon sometimes features a discounted price online, this Groupon still offers the best deal available.
Copper Tans Salon
According to the Island Sun Times Nicole Flora was just 22 years old when she purchased Copper Tans Salon, the same tanning salon she tanned and worked at during her college years. Eight years later, Nicole is still bubbling with joy, welcoming guests into Copper Tans' new environs—complete with plasma TVs and advanced tanning equipment—and introducing them to its new mission: to help clients take their tan to the next level.
To uphold that mission, the salon remains open seven days a week, allowing clients to bronzen their skin in six levels of UV beds, ranging from a Super Sonic Suncapsule standup with a 22 mph airflow that eliminates sweat to a Future Sun HP bed, enhanced by aromatherapy and air conditioning. Sunless tanning is also an option at Copper Tans Salon, as is a combination of an upper-level UV-tanning session followed by a spray tan for a comprehensive approach. A team of Smart Tan–certified staffers is always on hand to answer any questions, chat about the salon's selection of lotions from Devoted Creations, Australian Gold, and California Tan, and help clients determine which tanning services are best for them.

Democracy Lab
As part of the Legatum Institute's Transitions Forum, Democracy Lab is an online partnership between the Legatum Institute and Foreign Policy magazine, dedicated to covering political and economic transitions around the world.
"Readers love stories about heroic activists triumphing against the odds—those are very moving.. But they often miss the very big, important parts of the story such as what the people in a regime are thinking or what is happening in the highest military circles; Democracy Lab aims to supply a richer picture."
When World War II ended, there were only a dozen or so democracies in the world. Today, there are 115—many of which joined the club within the last decade or two—and many more, as the revolutions of 2011 showed, on the way. Theirs is the story Democracy Lab aims to track.
Edited by Legatum Institute Senior Fellow and veteran foreign correspondent Christian Caryl, Democracy Lab features a roster of leading writers and thinkers. It also hosts a daily blog, 'Transitions' produced by a global network of contributors covering change as it unfolds on the ground in countries from Burma to Egypt, as well as profiles of key political and economic players in transitional societies, detailed case studies, and a wide range of expert analysis and opinion.
As part of its work, Democracy Lab produces 'Lab Reports', offering in-depth looks at specific aspects of transitions in selected countries. Latest Lab Reports include the following countries: Burma, Venezuela, Ukraine, Libya and Kenya.
In September 2015, the Legatum Institute and Democracy Lab launched a collection to case studies that examine specific interventions against corruption which have produced positive results. Find out more here.
For more, please visit Democracy Lab on the Foreign Policy website or follow on Twitter here.

Central nervous system (CNS) diseases such as Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis affect a large number of populations worldwide for which no suitable cure is currently available. In addition, stroke, nanoparticle intoxication, diabetes, hypertension, and psychostimulant abuse either alone or in combination are capable of inducing potential brain damage. Thus, there is an urgent need to expand our knowledge to find suitable therapeutic strategies to enhance neurorepair processes in such diseases.
This volume presents neuroprotection and novel therapeutic strategies developed in the last 5 years by 12 world leaders in the field. The term neuroprotection means rescuing neuronal and non-neuronal cells together. The cerebral endothelium that constitutes the anatomical and physiological site of the blood-brain barrier (BBB) is one of the most important non-neural cells in the CNS. Any distortion of the BBB leads to brain diseases and restoration of the barrier results in neuroprotection. Thus, the BBB appears to be the "gateway" for neurological diseases and neurorepair. However, to treat brain tumors or infarcts, new therapeutic strategies are needed to enhance brain drug delivery using nanotechnology. In addition, apart from conventional drugs, restoration of BBB function could also be achieved by means of antibodies directed against specific proteins, neurotransmitters or exogenous supplement of neurotrophic factors. Since co-morbidity factors e.g., hypertension, diabetes, and exposure of nanoparticles could complicate the pathogenesis of neurological disorders either an enhanced dose of the drug or nanodelivery of a combination of several drugs is needed to achieve neuroprotection.
This volume of International Review of Neurobiology is the first to discuss novel therapeutic strategies in situations of neurological disorders in combination with different co-morbidity factors.

Lay on your right side? It's a no go for me. I tried to roll over last night because my left side is so 'worn out' from sleeping on it but 10 seconds after laying on my right side I felt like I was going to pass out and got very very dizzy! Yuck, I thought not being able to sleep on my back was bad enough, now I'm stuck in one position all night.
I'm so tempted to try sleeping while sitting up, just so that I can give my left side a break!
Anyone in the same situation yet?? I don't want to be the only one suffering!!!

The U.S. Senate is about to embark on a monumental mission meant to cover the posteriors of lawmakers.
It is a "sense of the Senate resolution" that senators will debate next week. The resolution, which is non-binding, will be meant to state that august body's disapproval of President Bush's war strategy in Iraq.
It is a ridiculous attempt by senators to put themselves on record against a war that has little support among Americans.
It could send precisely the wrong message to our precious warriors on the battlefield, said U.S. Sen. John Cornyn, R-Texas, who worries about the impact on troop morale that such a resolution could bring.
Perhaps the most ridiculous aspect of it is its timing. Senators this past week voted unanimously to approve Army Lt. Gen. David Petraeus' promotion to Iraq war field commander. So, the Senate then plans to state - again, for the record - that it opposes Petraeus' effort to prevail in this conflict.
And to what end?
Whatever comes out of the Senate is intended merely to cover the backsides of senators, many of whom voted initially to authorize President Bush to go to war in the first place.
If senators supporting this nonsensical resolution really wanted to show courage, they would vote to cut off money for the war. They would stand foursquare behind an immediate withdrawal - which, of course, would be a disastrous decision, given the bloodbath that is occurring in Iraq.
But no.
They are unwilling to do that.
Instead, they're going to debate and vote on a meaningless matter that amounts to little more than rhetorical paddling.
What a waste of time.

Thursday afternoon, CSN Washington's Chuck Gormley reported that Mike Green will be leaving the Washington Capitals as a free agent this summer. Most of us were wrecked by the news even though it's been expected for weeks. Green, one of the franchise's best defensemen, leaves behind a legacy of Awesome that may never be repeated in Washington.
Let's revisit that legacy now in this video created by our very own Amanda Bowen.
Photo: Alex Brandon
CSN Washington's Chuck Gormley just broke the news that UFA's Mike Green and Eric Fehr will be leaving the organization. Gormley spoke to Craig Oster, who represents both players.
Baby, come back!
ESPN's Craig Custance dropped a big old newsbomb on Caps free agency today, providing updates on the team's plans for everyone from Braden Holtby (spoiler alert: good news!) to Mike Green (spoiler alert: also good news, depending on your perspective!).
Mike Green, who has hand tattoos, is a great hockey player. If you ask me– which in a way just by reading this article you sorta are– he's a crucial piece of the Washington Capitals. So if this is Game Over for Green in DC, he will be dearly missed. If you don't believe me about that, I've got 1400 words and a few megabytes of pictures that will change your mind.
Photo credit: Susan Walsh
At age 23, defenseman Mike Green scored 31 goals. His 2008-2009 season was one of the most remarkable scoring performances by a blueliner of all-time. His bright blue Easton Stealth CNT was a lethal weapon. It was just the seventh time in league history a defenseman topped 30 goals. That last player to accomplish the feat, Kevin Hatcher, did it 26 years earlier.
The next year, Green's goal total dropped by 12. He still easily lead all defensemen with 76 points. The Capitals cruised to the Presidents' Trophy.
"He set the standard for offensive defensemen in the league," Karl Alzner, Green's longtime teammate, said of his 31-goal season. "That's been the benchmark for a lot of guys. Guys are trying hard to get there, and no one's been even close. "
"I think he'll be a guy that gets remembered in Washington forever," Alzner added.
Last week, Eric Fehr met the media to update them on the injury that has keep him out of the lineup for most of the playoffs. After two minutes of optimism and indirect answers, the scrum was finished. The day's routine necessity had been completed. As the rest of the media shuffled away from Fehr's locker, I made an offhand comment that the F-16 was getting ready for flight.
"There are some bad nicknames out there," he told me. "Of all the nicknames to have, that's a pretty cool one."
I asked what he thought of his other nickname, Fehrsie.
"See, that's the thing: I hate those nicknames," he said. "Anybody with a last name with a –y on the end would probably be the worst one. Spelling it –ie doesn't change anything. You need to be creative. As a group we've tried to be more creative with guys. We tried to change it up a little bit."
Inadvertently, I had just stumbled on a massive scoop. Over the next 10 minutes, Fehr revealed the other hidden nicknames of the Capitals locker room. Some you might know– others you don't.
Eight minutes into the third period, the Washington Capitals clung to a 2-1 lead, buoyed by Andre Burakovsky's two goals. After falling behind 1-0, the Caps rebounded and seemed in control.
Then, the nightmare scenario: Carl Hagelin raced in on a breakaway towards Braden Holtby after a Caps' miscommunication in the neutral zone. Mike Green, realizing this could be a disaster, chose the two-minute minor hooking penalty over the layup goal. Green reached his stick out and tugged on Hagelin's gut.

Alex Ovechkin has never made it past the second round of the playoffs. It's a trite fact, but unavoidable. He's been in the NHL since 2005, with his window as a primary goal-scorer closing. In 10 years, he has yet to win a Stanley Cup. Some core players around him, like Mike Green, are likely to leave this summer or within the next few years. This may be Ovechkin's best chance to win a Cup as the undisputed leader of the Washington Capitals. Ovechkin seems to know that. In this year's Division Final against the Rangers, DC's captain has put on an astonishing display of talent and dedication, nearly winning games for the Capitals off his play alone. On Saturday, he came up short, but it was another immortal individual performance.
"He's a force," coach Barry Trotz said. "No question."
Midway through the third period, Washington was down 3-1, having just given up a crushing goal to Rangers forward Derick Brassard. Just 90 seconds before Rangers fans were to begin their eight-minute mark "Ovi Sucks! Ovi Sucks! Ovi Sucks!" onslaught, Ovechkin bumbled down the ice with three Rangers on him. He knifed straight through Dan Girardi and Ryan McDonagh, New York's top defenders, as the two hopelessly whacked at Ovi. Falling to his knees, he let off a perfectly placed wrist shot that went top shelf on Henrik Lundqvist. It was a goal that was nearly impossible to imagine another player in the NHL scoring. It was utter brilliance, under immense pressure, on a huge stage. Save for the cheers of Capitals players, MSG fell silent.
Ward smiling after Derek Stepan tries punching him.
The Washington Capitals won game one at Madison Square Garden in surprisingly easy fashion– though it took a last-second goal to win. The first twenty minutes of game two have been way different.
But I'm an optimist, so let's focus on the awesome things that happened in the first period first.
Wednesday morning, I set off to Kettler Capitals Iceplex on a serious mission. I was on deadline, working on a story on Braden Holtby for The New York Times. I paced around the rink until the locker room opened. When Karl Alzner, Holtby's longtime teammate, became available, I prepared to pepper him with questions about Holtby's breakout season, but Karl had other ideas.
"Hey, I gotta ask *you* a question!" Alzner exclaimed, pointing out the baby blue Apple Watch on my wrist. "How did you get that so fast?"

Election Day this year will set the course for job policy, health care reforms and school spending - not to mention taxes.
And that's not just in the run for president. Eleven states will pick governors next month, and the contests allow domestic issues to get attention as money pours into the campaigns and races heat up.
Experts see particularly hot contests in Indiana, Missouri, Montana and Washington state.
Democrats are defending six seats and Republicans five. Two incumbents have already lost - bounced by their own parties during primaries. Three chose not to run - after bruising terms in Montana and Washington, and revelations of an extramarital affair in West Virginia.
"I don't know where to start to say how important these races are," said Iowa Gov. Tom Vilsack, chairman of the Democratic Governors Association. "What happens in states becomes ultimately the model for what happens on the federal level."
The contests have created sparks, though national attention has been muffled by the focus on the presidential campaign.
In a year when the Iraq war has dominated headlines, gubernatorial races have provided at least a partial arena for lengthier debate on domestic issues.
"Missourians are hungry for someone to talk about kitchen-table concerns, health care and tuition," said Democratic state Auditor Claire McCaskill, who is running for governor of Missouri.
Voters, while concerned with foreign policy, are looking to their governors to make changes that will improve their day-to-day lives, she said.

Worker Deaths Bring Florida Company more than $50,000
in OSHA Fines
RIVIERA BEACH, Fla. -- A Florida company's failure to protect workers from electrocution hazards contributed to two fatalities and may cost the company $50,250 in proposed penalties, the Occupational Safety and Health Administration has announced.
On Sept. 19, 2001, two employees of South Florida Yachts, Inc. were electrocuted when a 35-foot high traveling hoist they were using to remove a boat from a storage area came in contact with a 30- foot high, 7,500 volt overhead powerline.
Following an inspection of the accident, OSHA cited South Florida Yachts for one willful violation of safety standards and proposed a penalty totaling $49,000 for failing to alert workers to potential hazards and instruct them about protective measures needed to perform their jobs safely.
"This employer knew power lines were obstructing the storage area; was aware of the height of the traveling hoist, and was familiar with labeling on the equipment warning against getting close to electrical hazards," said Luis Santiago, OSHA's Ft. Lauderdale area director. "Yet, company officials took no action to remove the powerlines or to alert workers to the hazard."
In 1999, in response to the high rate of construction accidents in Florida, OSHA launched the CARE (Construction Accident Reduction Emphasis) program and established special local emphasis programs -- falls and electrical -- to address the high accident rate attributable to these two hazards.
In fiscal year 2000, there were 37 electrical accidents in the southeast of which 20, or 54 percent, involved overhead powerlines. In 2001, the number of shocks or electrocutions had dropped to 30 but powerline-related accidents remained at 20, or 67 percent of the total. So far this fiscal year, seven of the 13 electrical accidents, a total of 54 percent, resulted from contact with powerlines.
"Far too many Florida workers are electrocuted on the job," said Santiago. "In this case, although company officials knew the powerlines were a potential threat, they took no remedial action."
One serious citation in connection with the inspection drew a fine of $1,250 for absence of a deflecting device or bumper on the traveling hoist to prevent a crushing accident.
South Florida Yachts employs 28 workers in boat sales, service and storage. The company has 15 working days to contest OSHA's citations and proposed penalties before the independent Occupational Safety and Health Review Commission.
Inspection of the fatal accident was conducted by OSHA's area office at Jacaranda Executive Court, 8040 Peters Rd., Building H-100, Fort Lauderdale, Fla. 33324-4029; telephone: (954) 424-0242.

Erie Pride Picnic held at Presque Isle
There is still more than six months to go before the end of 2014, and it already has been a big year for Erie's LGBT community.
So some members of that community were out celebrating Saturday afternoon.
The Northwest Pennsylvania Pride Alliance held its 22nd annual Erie Pride Picnic at Presque Isle State Park on Saturday. The event is designed to bring lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender people from around the Erie area together each year, but this year's iteration had an added spark after the May federal court ruling legalizing same-sex marriage in the state.
"Obviously, there's marriage equality" to celebrate, said Michael Mahler, president of the Northwest Pennsylvania Pride Alliance. Mahler said there has been talk about what to call couples who have been together for years but just recently became legally married.
"'Newlyweds' doesn't seem right," he said. "So, we're calling them 'truly weds.'"
Mahler said he wasn't sure how many people would show up Saturday, but he expected at least as many as the 200 who showed up in 2013. He said the picnic typically draws between 200 and 400 people.
The event featured free food, raffles, games and music. There were also health screenings and information booths, including PNC Bank, the Erie County Department of Health, the American Civil Liberties Union and LGBT advocacy groups.
Mahler said one of the traditions of the picnic is the annual "family photo," which is a group photo of the picnic attendees.
Among the recently married couples celebrating at the picnic were Eric Linster and his husband, Jeremy Snyder.
"We were the third couple in Erie County to get a license," said Linster, of Millcreek Township. "We were actually married in a religious ceremony in 2011."
But in addition to marking such a big moment in both his personal life and for LGBT Pennsylvanians, it was just nice to have a picnic at Presque Isle on a sunny day, Linster said.
"We're just enjoying the day," he said.
Erie resident Andrea Shaffer was also out at the picnic. She expects to be wed on July 4 to her partner of 11 years.
"We already have joint bank accounts and have a house in both our names, but there are certain rights we don't have because we aren't married," Shaffer said. "So a big part of this is just being able to have the same rights as everyone else."

The German-Russian Young Leaders Conference
The German-Russian Young Leaders Conference is a joint initiative of the Berlin-based non-profit association "Deutschland-Russland - Die neue Generation" (Germany-Russia - The New Generation) and Saint Petersburg State University of Economics, Russia's leading economic university. The annual German-Russian Young Leaders Conference itself is a private, non-profit, politically independent, non-partisan initiative with the goal of fostering relationships and mutual understanding among a new generation of Russians and Germans - irrespective of the state of the official bilateral relations.
The annual conference provides young Germans and Russians an open platform for professional and personal exchange. The participants are selected through a thorough application process focusing on young "leaders in mind" with exceptional profiles in their spheres of activity, such as business, politics, science, and media.
Once a year, 120 German and 120 Russian participants, selected from hundreds of nominations and applications, are invited to a three-day meeting. We particularly aim to recruit participants without intense prior relations to the respective other country. The conference is funded by supporters from business and society. Participants themselves make a substantial contribution by individually covering their cost of travel and accommodation at the conference hotel.
Besides offering a platform for personal exchange and inspirational debates, the German-Russian Young Leaders Conference aims to form a permanent active network among its alumni. The ongoing exchange shall help to build the foundation for better German-Russian and EU-Russian relations in the future.
8th German-Russian Young Leaders Conference will take place in Dresden, Oct 13-16, 2016 at the invitation of the Minister-President of the Free State of Saxony, Mr. Stanislaw Tillich, President of the German Bundesrat (Federation Council).
In order to apply please send us your short CV, including your current position and contact details, together with a brief, informal explanation on why you believe you should be invited (Please write to: email@example.com). This year, we have reserved 50 percent of the places for new participants.

Solutions for Chapter 4
If home loans become harder to get and ability of borrowers is checked more thoroughly, very less home loans will be available. We can understand to use below diagram:
The units of demand, supply and price taken in the graph are assumed. X axis represents the demand and supply of home loans in million units and Y axis represents the price per home loan.
The quantity supplied of the home loans will be very low as compared to the quantity demanded of the home loans. The quantity demanded of the home loans will be more as compared to the availability of home loans. In the graph initially the quantity demanded and quantity supplied of the home loans is in equilibrium at point E with the demand curve DD and Supply curve SS.
Now as there are very strict norms and hard procedures, there will be very less availability of home loans. Initially the supply curve is SS. Now as the supply of home loans decreases then Supply curve moves to SS'.
As the quantity of home loans supplied is less, the price of home loans will go up. The equilibrium price is the price where quantity demanded equal to quantity supplied. Now as the supply of home loans decreases, the price moves from $82'000 to $95'000. The equilibrium price moves up from point E to point E'.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu extended an unprecedented invitation Thursday to Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas, urging him to address Israel's parliament.
Speaking at the U.N. General Assembly, Netanyahu offered in turn to appear before the Palestinian legislature.
The Palestinians quickly rejected the invitation as a "new gimmick" designed to mask what they described as Israel's intransigence on moving forward with the Mideast peace process.
Netanyahu addressed the world body moments after Abbas delivered his own speech. Both presented sharply different views of the path toward reviving peace talks that have been stalled for more than two...

Congress is working to tackle the issue of climate change. As an energy company, we agree that lowering overall emissions from power plants and moving to cleaner sources of generating electricity is a good thing for the nation and the world.
We absolutely need more renewable energy sources such as wind, solar and biomass. We must promote greater energy efficiency to help consumers save on energy use and thus save money. We must push for technologies for cleaner coal. And we must be mindful that any solution to the climate change issue has to consider the need to keep the lights on at a cost people can afford.
Unfortunately, some ideas being discussed in Congress fly in the face of what may be practical and best for the nation, especially as we try and recover from the economic downturn.
In Georgia for example, if the kind of legislation being discussed now is passed into law, in just six years, electricity prices could rise another 20 percent or more above what they would normally be, according to early analysis. Natural gas prices could jump 25 percent.
Unfortunately, that's not the only bite. The buying power of a Georgia household could decline more than $2,000 annually. It's also estimated Georgia could have 120,000 fewer jobs as a result. All that translates to slower overall economic growth, about $13 billion less than what it could be otherwise.
Nationwide, even with the additional "green" jobs predicted to result from passage of such legislation, the U.S. could lose as many as 3 million jobs as a result of declining sectors and the overall economy.
Southern Co. is among the energy industry's leaders in researching and developing alternative and cleaner sources for generating electricity, as well as in growing our portfolio of energy efficiency programs. We participate in numerous projects to test capture and sequestration of carbon dioxide emissions and have developed a new coal gasification technology.
Also, our Georgia Power subsidiary is converting a coal plant into one of the largest biomass plants in the nation. In Georgia, we're also moving ahead with nuclear power, the only major generating source of electricity that doesn't produce emissions.
Let's do what we need to do to address this issue, in a way that makes sense and makes a difference.

ST. PETERSBURG — Pinellas Sheriff's Office community policing deputies and 27 residents of Pinellas Safe Harbor, the emergency homeless shelter in Clearwater managed by the Sheriff's Office, cleaned up the Gandy Boulevard area Wednesday.
They picked up trash along the beaches and the median. The volunteers joked that it would nice to find a million dollars, but the most interesting finds were half a dozen golf balls.
"This isn't about Gandy Beach," said Deputy Jason Brown. "It's about the Safe Harbor residents feeling dignified and giving back."

It has been 30 years since the last supermarket set up shop in Camden, at its far southern end - now the only such store in the city. Since then, most residents have turned to bodegas and other small groceries to purchase food.
The Camden Children's Garden and its affiliated Camden City Garden Club have tried to fill the fresh-produce void. But that role may be in jeopardy as the garden faces eviction from its waterfront home.
Each growing season, hundreds of seeds are planted in the Children's Garden grow labs and later transferred to community gardens throughout the city.

Irving celebrates the holidays
Irving's Parks and Recreation department is celebrating the holidays this year with the theme, "The Twelve Days of Christmas." Residents and visitors looking to get their fill of holiday cheer will have a full day of activities to choose from on Saturday, starting with the Blue Christmas Chili Cook-off from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. at Heritage Park, 217 S. Main St. The cook-off will feature face painting, games for kids, an auction, cake walk and other vendors. Chili samples also will be on sale for $5. All benefits from the Cook-off go to Blue Christmas, a joint partnership between the Irving Police and Fire departments to provide gifts and meals to needy Irving residents at Christmas.
The Holiday Extravaganza continues at 4 p.m. as the community parade winds through the streets of the Heritage District. The parade will feature more than 65 floats, bands, decorated vehicles and walking groups from community organizations.
The event concludes with a stage show, tree lighting ceremony and small fireworks display outside of Irving City Hall, 825 W. Irving Blvd. For more information, visit IrvingEvents.org.

Degree of Threat: C : Not very threatened throughout its range, communities often provide natural resources that when exploited alter the composition and structure over the short-term, or communities are self-protecting because they are unsuitable for other uses
Comments: Principal threat is fishing, although habitat degradation in coastal waters and nursery areas may affect juveniles. Generally fished wherever it exists; regularly caught in substantial amounts (Compagno 1990). Caught with hook-and-line, gill nets, and trawls for meat, fishmeal, liver oil, fins, and hide. Often caught by sport anglers and was formerly targeted by fishermen in Australia and South Africa. Much of catch is relatively minor bycatch for more fecund teleosts. Mostly caught as bycatch in Japanese tuna longline vessels (Taniuchi 1990).

I have to say that the Asgard is a beautiful piece of mechanical art, and knowing the history of the designers, the innards equally so. Once the amp settles in temp wise, it is amazingly transparent and really opens up the music. IMHO, Schiit could, with the designers provenance, sell the Asgard for a $1,000.

30, 60, 90-Day Inpatient Vs. Outpatient Rehabilitation in Petersburg, Virginia
Achieving sobriety from Chlordiazepoxide, Hycodan, alcohol or any other addictive drugs you or your loved one is addicted to takes an specifically-tailored treatment arrangement. Two options of substance addiction treatment programs in Petersburg can help you succeed: either In-patient or Out-patient Rehab. Inpatient treatment offers long term benefits with extended residence in a high-quality rehabilitation center. Outpatient treatments may be more convenient to you, but lack the constancy and assets of one-month programs to become clean. Ultimately, you make the decision, and we are here to help you pick the best fit.

In many uncomfortable ways, American politics now resemble those that arose late in the Roman Republic. As wealth and land ownership concentrated in few hands, a state built on the discipline of soldiers who tended their own farms became ever more dominated by fractious oligarchs. As property consolidated into huge slave-owning estates, more citizens became landless and ever more dependent on the patronage of the rich generals and landowners who increasingly seized control of politics. read more »

The number of unemployed people is higher, and the number of jobs in the economy is lower, than five years ago.

The Great Skills Gap Myth
One of the great memes out there in trying to diagnose persistently high unemployment and anemic job growth during what is still, I argue, the Great Recession is the so-called "skills gap".

Butterflied my shrimp so I could get more coconut on them! I was successful. Yum!
Excellent coconut shrimp!!! I am not a fan of coconut, but somehow, really like fried coconut shrimp, weird!!! This was very easy and the coating was great. The only change I may make is to omit the sugar, as I find the coconut sweet enough. Thanks for sharing a great recipe. Made for ZWT8.
This is one of those recipes that could get a gal in serious trouble! It is way too easy and beyond way too good to not make all the time. I made the batter with some of our homebrewed hefeweissen and served it with a creamy pineapple dipping sauce. What a delight!

Now 46 years old, Sarah-Jane still loves competing, but it is her weekly training with Special Olympics that she really enjoys. "Special Olympics has changed my life," said Sarah-Jane. "It has helped me become more sociable and given me the confidence to try new things in the sporting arena and set goals that I would never have imagined."
