Skip to comments.NRA official: Obama wants to outlaw guns in 2nd term (DTD FEB 10, 2012!!)
Posted on 12/19/2012 12:48:45 PM PST by Obama_Is_Sabotaging_America
A top official with the National Rifle Association said Friday that President Obama will move to "destroy" gun rights and "erase" the Second Amendment if he is re-elected in November.
While delivering one of the liveliest and best-received speeches at the Conservative Political Action Conference in Washington, NRA Executive Vice President Wayne LaPierre said the president's low-key approach to gun rights during his first term was "a "conspiracy to ensure re-election by lulling gun owners to sleep."
"All that first term, lip service to gun owners is just part of a massive Obama conspiracy to deceive voters and hide his true intentions to destroy the Second Amendment during his second term," he said.
"We see the president's strategy crystal clear: Get re-elected and, with no more elections to worry about, get busy dismantling and destroying our firearms' freedom, erase the Second Amendment from the Bill of Rights and excise it from the U.S. Constitution."
Mr. LaPierre said the president's two Supreme Court appointees Sonia Sotomayor and Elena Kagan are "two of the most rabid anti-gun justices in history." He also accused Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg of being a foe of gun rights.
And with the possibility of two or more Supreme Court justice positions opening during the next four years, the NRA official warned that gun ownership would be in jeopardy if Mr. Obama stays in office.
"If we get one more like those three, the Second Amendment is finished," he said. "It'll be the end of our freedom forever."
Mr. LaPierre, who said "there is no greater freedom than to own a firearm," predicted that gun owners will rally en masse to defeat Mr. Obama in November.

Adam Lanza clearly was not worried what people would think about him or his actions.. He brutally murdered his own mother and 20 harmless, innocent children. Why would he seek to hide what is on his computer hard drive? He left a legacy of evil, so why would he care what was found on his computer?
Who was Adam Lanza corresponding with via his computer? Did someone commandeer his mind via electronic correspondence or messaging to execute this evil plot? Why the destruction of his computer hard drive, the only piece of evidence which could prove this possibility?
Concerning his second term agenda of abolishing the Second Amendment and private gun ownership in the United States, 0bama could not have asked for better justification than the Sandy Hook massacre. Events always seem to just play right into 0bama's hands, don't they..
Lifetime NRA member here:
Not even Obama, much as he would no doubt like to, can simply `erase' a Constitutional amendment. It can only be repealed by the passage & ratification by 38 state legislatures of a brand new amendment.
Look up the 18th amendment (Prohibition) and the amendment which repealed it (the 21st) and see just how easy that was.
"Not even Obama, much as he would no doubt like to, can simply `erase a Constitutional amendment."
Maybe the Supremes can. And if they did, it would be knocked down by...um...
Hundreds of thousands of new gun owners, many first timers.
Think about joining the NRA and having a collective voice in
retaining your new gun. Finally, buy a lot of ammo. If the SHTF, an empty gun does you no good.
Can he unilaterally overturn immigration laws and openly refuse to enforce federal laws such as DOMA (Defense of Marriage Act) without Congressional approval? I'd just be curious to know if he can do that.. Just curious..
Buy as many Hi-Cap mags as you can. They will be out of stock for a long time by January 1.
Yup, the Biden thing is a joke. The report and policies are already written. They have been, and just sitting on a shelf waiting for an exploitable event to be taken down, dusted off, and trotted out.
Not even with an executive order?
Not even with an executive order?
Overturning laws is easy. Confiscating 300 million weapons? Not as much.
Of course not, but he doesn't have to. An executive order can effectively ban any number of defined firearms or ammunition without even touching on the 2nd Amendment.
Taxation is another means of limiting ownership of firearms or ammunition, just look what they did to the tobacco industry and the current smokers.......
...and how many firearms enthusiasts supported the government on their attack on smokers? One only has to look at the tobacco threads to see how many current members had no concern for them.........
I'll have my guns as long as I am alive.
What's with this? Do you not know who the Speaker of the House is? My Noodle Spine himself. Do you actually believe that the House would move on something like that? If, by some miracle, it did, what are the chances of a trial and removal by the heavily-DemoRAT Senate?
Goodness, get real.
The president can make an Executive Order (EO) to ban weapons but an EO is subject to a lawsuit just like a congressional act.
You can dilute it until it is effectively repealed, because it cannot be enforced. That's what all those court cases are about. New constitutional rights are invented, old ones disregarded or studiously ignored. It was like that back in the beginning, with the Alien and Sedition Act.
Or just tax it to death like leftards do everything else they disapprove of.
Easier than you think...If I posted a notice here that the BATF has sent me a letter stating that several of the firearms I own are no longer legal to own and that if I do not turn them in they will come to my house to confiscate them, will you leave your job and drive to my house to help me make a stand? Not likely, instead the thread will become an argument board filled with false bravado from some and others who would criticize me. That's just the way it is.......
How many of the current members here remember Randy Weaver and Waco and how many of them came to their rescue?
Many folks here talk a big story but I'm sorry to inform you it's an "all men for themselves" mentality now since everyone has jobs and families that come first before helping some poor schlep who is under attack by the govt.......
Not even Obama, much as he would no doubt like to, can simply `erase a Constitutional amendment.
We can always count on John Roberts!
"BATF has sent me a letter stating that several of the firearms I own are no longer legal to own and that if I do not turn them in they will come to my house..."
Just how does BATF know that you have them? Because you signed a 4473 at the point of initial sale? There's no law requiring you to report having sold or otherwise disposed of them. At least for now, got it.
They're not registered. In order to have a registration law, there must also be a deregistration law.
This isn't UK or Australia. Or Nazi Germany. Not yet.
Yes, I know. It makes me feel good to say it. But in all honesty, what would be an impeachable offense with this buffoon, AND this Congress? Really?
Does your statement mean that you're coming to my defense when the BATF says they coming for my semi-autos? That WAS the intent of my post in case it went over your head........
So what's your answer? Can I count on you or not?....LOL!
Yeah but the principled thing to do was stay home and not vote for Mitt.
And I do not put the democrat machine beyond the ability to manufacture a mass killing of children to fulfill their goals.
Maybe he didn't want the authorities to find his gay porn and the whole world to learn he was a little faggot in addition to being a cowardly child killer?
I was just talking about that the other day, I unfortunately live in the totalitarian state called New York city under Despot Mike Bloomberg, and since day one I said this guy Bloomberg is going to keep upping the ante because the people say absolutely NADA when he issues decrees, and that is exactly what he's done.
Now last week he is looking to ban smoking in residences. That's right in YOUR PRIVATE RESIDENCE you cannot smoke. And if that ain't bad enough, he also wants landlords to send lists to the city of the people who smoke in the apartments they rent. I don't even have to guess next he's going to demand smokers wear an "S" on their arm and have his boys paint "S" on the windows of store owners who smoke.
I've said this many times, people talk the talk but in reality, if it doesn't affect them directly, they don't give a rat's ass about what happens to you......
There will never be a civil uprising nor will there be a civil war as long as the computer cowboys have jobs and families to protect............
How did Hitler do it???
He was legally elected also.
Oh, for crying out loud!
"We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness, [the Right to Keep and Bear Arms, etc.]."
Become a Declarationist - you'll sleep better at night.
An elitist scum like Obama can issue gun edicts for the peasantry from behind his battalion of Secret Service agents armed with submachine guns all he wants. It doesn't change the immortal words of the Declaration.
What's to stop people from reporting their guns as lost or stolen? There will be an enormous black market for weapons. Guns will be as easy to purchase as pot.
Yes, so I am very interested in why he would purposely be acting in such a way that he knows will make guns fly off the shelves.
Reminds me of the scene in Lawrence of Arabia where Lawrence says, "From the landward side, there are no guns at Aqaba."
What is Obama's Nefud (the direction from which noone would previously approach)?
Sure he can. He waits (and socialists are VERY good at being patient) until he had 1...maybe 2 more seats on the courts open up...and replaces them with people like Ginsberg or Kagan. Then...there is another challenge to the 2nd...like Houston v Moore; Maxwell v Dow; Poe v Ullman; Laird v Tatum or Perpich v DoD. It is then determined that the phrase "a well regulated militia" means the military....in spite of 200 years worth of USSC findings and the writings of the framers.
I have always found it funny that so many liberals spew the militia=military not individual right mantra when it has been CLEARLY established by the supremes...OVER AND OVER again...as early as 1820 (when some of the framers were still alive and didn't dissent to this interpretation)...that the second is for the individual. I mean, there has never been a question...except in the mind of the leftist.
Exactly. It does not stop the criminals now and most cannot just walk into a gun store and purchase a firearm. I've heard of guys selling brand new autos out of the trunk of a car in NYC. Cash and no paperwork.
The crooks use full autos not the one shot/squeeze again crap they try to pass off as military weapons the gun stores sell.
They will use up a lot of postage sending out letters and then will start wasting agents time by trying to track own and locate all weapons.
He can strangle it to death by directing the BATFE to stop processing all paperwork via EO.
Considering it takes decades to work RKBA issues thru the courts, he's not worried.
Not even Obama operates in a vacuum.
He may now be unaccountable to the electorate, but his fellow Dems in Congress aren't.
"So what's your answer? Can I count on you or not?..."
I really don't think you will be singled out unless there is something we don't know about you.
I remember Waco and Ruby Ridge as well.
In answer to your question, if they start a sweep in my neighborhood my house won't be the first. I will come to the aid of the Guy down the street. It will be painful for a lot of young "agents" until they learn their lesson and change their minds.
Yes I really mean that...
BS. After the first couple happen and it hits the internet people will stand their ground and BATF boys will start getting shot. Unless you can go to every one of the 40 million households or more that have one at the same time you won't get it done.
This is why they want control of the internet. They will shut down all comms so we would not be able to organize or warn our fellow patriots.
If things ever go south, I'd bet the rent you'd turn on a dime.
Easier than you think.
The question is, what would you do, not some neighbor down the street...I think the answer to that is inordinately clear and I believe you're correct, you'd be real easy. An easy subject.
Likely the same reason you haven't yet reported yours lost or stolen to your local law enforcement agency.........
So where were you when Randy Weaver and his family were under seige? That was certainly all over the headline news as well as the internet.
Or the Branch Dividians for that matter?
Nobody came to their rescue........
Like I said, it's every man for themselves and nobody is going to give a rip what happens to YOU nor YOU for Them.......

Fall 2001
Volume 6 Number 1
He became a Navy chaplain and served in Vietnam in the Mekong Delta, came home to pastor several churches, and in retirement coaches at the U.S. Coast Guard Academy in New London, Connecticut. He arranged for my trip to Princeton last July and kindly made it possible for me to meet and talk with Dr. Sam Moffett.
Moffett had known a fellow missionary and another of my PTS mentors, Archie Crouch (Class of 1933), a missionary in China. We had lunch together that day after seeing Archie's name inscribed on a plaque in the entrance to the Administration Building. Since my divorce in the late '70s, Archie had not spoken to me. Sam and I talked about Archie and then I went back to New York where I planned to attend a requiem mass for the aunt of one of the Episcopal Franciscans with whom I was staying. That night I dreamed that I called Archie across the river in Englewood, New Jersey, and he told me to come on over that afternoon. When I awoke, I had Archie on my mind. I looked in the back pages of an issue of
inSpire I had received and saw that Archie had died on my birthday the year before, September 10. I asked that the requiem be also for Archie, and the brothers and I gave thanks for his life and our long-ago friendship.
Archie had also been part of my entrance to Asia. He worked with the Border Service Department, the first and only indigenous organization of the Chinese Church, as its only non-Chinese staff member. He worked with ethnic minorities in southwestern China in the 1940s. He was the Border Service's English-language secretary, a Western missionary serving under Chinese leadership. He told me that early in World War II he accompanied caravans of food and medical supplies to refugees from the war. I remember that Archie had admired my photography in Presbyterian Life
and offered me a job as a Presbyterian/ecumenical writer-at-large in Africa, the Middle East, and Asia, but my then-wife disagreed and we were repatriated to her native country, Thailand.
Then there was Paul Verghese, PTS Class of 1954, known more formally as Paulos Mar
Gregorios. He was principal of the Orthodox Theological Seminary in
Kottya, Kerala, India; the metropolitan of Delhi of the Indian Orthodox Church; and president of the
World Council of Churches
(WCC). I met him at the Thai Red Cross Center in 1968 during an East Asian Christian Conference assembly near Bangkok (where later that year Thomas Merton died in an accident) and really got to know him at the WCC "Salvation Today?" conference in 1972.
Verghese began his journey to Princeton Seminary as a bank clerk in India who helped some foreigners push-start their stalled car. His gesture earned him an invitation to study in the U.S. and eventually led to his role as secretary and tutor to the family of the late emperor Haile Selassie of Ethiopia. Because of his striking appearance, sometimes soft, sometimes fiery (in my mind's eye a Jeremiah, a
Rasputin, or Santa Claus!), he attracted me as a photo subject. He was a theologian, a scientist, an author, and, not unimportantly, a stern critic of America's intervention in Vietnam. He was also an articulate religious ambassador to Moscow and other places where Americans had a limited welcome.
But he got on well with Americans. Frank Hull, a friend and American clergyman in Thailand, studied under Mar Gregorios in Ghana, Senegal, and Amsterdam in a Presbyterian seminar on ecumenical mission. "Everyone was American except Paul," Hull recalled. "His quiet Indian Orthodox ways and dress made him unique and fascinating to us young Americans."
Mar Gregorios died in 1996, but his legacy continues. In 1997 the Dalai Lama received the Paulos Mar Gregorios Award for his work in interfaith dialogue. Instituted to honor Mar Gregorios by the Sophia Society, which he founded, the award honors individuals who contribute to peace, justice, and wisdom, ideals for which Mar Gregorios lived and worked.
In the 1980s, when I was back in the States working with Indochinese and African refugees and Vietnam veterans in San Francisco, I met PTS grad Gregg Meister (Class of 1971) through the InterFaith Communications Commission of Northern California, a group that I headed and that coordinated Catholic, Protestant, and Jewish programming on broadcast TV. He welcomed me to Lakeside Presbyterian Church where he was the pastor and invited me to do campaign communications for Ben Weir (PTS Class of 1950), who was then standing for moderator of the
Presbyterian Church (USA). Weir, as the world knows, witnessed to God's sufficiency while he was in captivity in the hands of Islamic militants. He told me that he gained strength to survive by thanking God for his blessings—waking up in the morning, having life another day, having food. God sustains, he said, but perhaps not in the style to which we have become accustomed.
Which brings me to the present and the most recent PTS graduate I have
met. In the early 1800s, a vision of Christian mission fed the spirit of Adoniram Judson, America's first foreign missionary. Judson chose Burma as his goal, a Buddhist empire that gave no sign of welcoming Christianity. A Congregationalist, he later became a Baptist. Today Burma's leading seminary is Baptist-run Myanmar Institute of Theology, half of whose faculty are Princeton Seminary-trained. Its principal is Dr. Anna May Say Pa, who earned a Princeton Ph.D. in Old Testament in 1989.
This fall she returns to the U.S. as a "missionary" to America, sponsored by the Presbyterian Church. And "coming full circle" in my journey with
Princetonians, in November she will visit Cherry Hill, New Jersey, where I graduated from high school, before going on to Anaheim, California, for a PCUSA Worldwide Ministries conference.
"Shema Israel," Say Pa recently sang to international Christians in Bangkok. "Hear, O Israel." Presbyterians, Baptists, Anglicans, Mennonites, Thais, Germans, Americans, Indonesians, Russians, Indians, Nigerians, Burmese: Israel among the Gentiles. The Hebrew resonates across millennia and cultures. I resonate. Here is a woman from Burma who has carried
the Word of God to my country for years. She wears Judson's
mantle. preaching reconciliation, justice, and peace not only in
her own troubled land of Myanmar but in America as a prophet to
challenge the American church.
Anna May Say Pa. Henry Bucher. Archie Crouch. Paulos Mar Gregorios. Thich Nhat Hanh. They have influenced Asia, the worldwide body of Christ, and me personally in ways that I can only begin to explain. My own experience, woven through with the strands of their lives, was shaped especially by the Vietnam War. There are many roads to peace and few are actually traveled.
As I write I think of my tableau of Desmond Tutu and my unfinished book, Hoa-Binh: Dreams of
Peace, to which he has written an introduction. There is an imp sitting on my shoulder, whispering in my ear. I muse on meeting Madame Nguyen thi
Binh, vice president of the Socialist Republic of Vietnam, on May Day 1996 near Hanoi. I was afraid to intrude. In my mind's eye, she was still the fiery young woman who represented the National Liberation Front in Paris, whom I imagined carrying an AK-47. But she was really carrying a putting iron and said she was learning "to make golf, not war."
The imp whispered in my ear, "Why not introduce her to Sam
Baez? He's a super coach!" And maybe I will.
Shema Israel!

Topic: Rails beginner question: how do i structure controller?
Just starting out with RoR and am very eager to move past the basic example apps on all the Web tutorials...
I am unclear though on how to structure something though in Rails:
Let's say I want to create a Web app that allows people to select one of many accounts. Once an account is selected, they are then taken to a screen where are the associated expenses for that account are listed. The user can go through the typical add/edit/delete for those expenses (linked to this account via FK).
So let's say, I have two models, Account and Expense.
Should I create two separate controllers, one for each? If so, how do I keep in context the ID of the Account that I am currently working on (outside of using sessions)?
Is there a way to pass the ID param so that a "subcontroller" is somehow utilized, like maybe:
http://localhost:3000/Accounts/13/Expenses/show/5 ("Show Expense with ID 5 which is tied to Account 13")?
If so, how do I implement this? If not, how should I be structuring this?
Thanks in advance for everyone's help.

Breast Cancer
Statements By Members
2:05 p.m.
Peter Adams Peterborough, ON
Some time ago, Mr. Speaker, within days, I attended two events which were quite separate but were in fact related.
One was the Peterborough Run for the Cure, a large fundraising event to support the battle against breast cancer. At that event I learned that progress is being made against breast cancer. For example, I learned that it has been conclusively demonstrated that breastfeeding reduces the risk of breast cancer.
The other event was a breastfeeding challenge designed to promote breastfeeding and to raise community awareness of the importance of making it easy for mothers to breastfeed wherever they are. In the new economy and the new social reality, it is important that mothers with infants feel comfortable breastfeeding at home, at work and in public places.
We should all realize that breastfeeding is good for the baby, nutritionally and psychologically. It is also good for the mother's health, as I have mentioned, and for her psychologically. I urge all members to support and promote breastfeeding in Canada, especially the member for Madawaska—Restigouche, whose new daughter, Emilie, arrived recently.
Yolande Sirois
Statements By Members
2:05 p.m.
Louise Thibault Rimouski—Témiscouata, QC
Mr. Speaker, I would like today to cite the great generosity of Yolande Sirois, who received eloquent public praise in recognition of her commitment and gifts to the community of Rimouski and the Lower Laurentians.
Over the past 10 years, Ms. Sirois has contributed in excess of $325,000 in support of many agencies and institutions, such as the Fondation du Centre hospitalier régional de Rimouski, the Fondation de l'UQAR, the Musée de la mer, the Trimural du millénaire, the Centre polyvalent des aînés, and more.
Ms. Sirois' philanthropy was given well deserved praise at a gala concert in April. This mark of recognition becomes her, since she has also been a major contributor to musical culture by supporting the Concours de musique du Québec, the Fondation de l'École de musique du Bas-Saint-Laurent, the Concerts aux Îles du Bic and the Conservatoire de musique de Rimouski.
A thank you and congratulations to Ms. Sirois.
Olivier Simard
Statements By Members
2:05 p.m.
Françoise Boivin Gatineau, QC
Mr. Speaker, in my riding of Gatineau, there is a young man with incredible strength. In 1999, he was told he had leukemia. That was some shock for young Olivier Simard, who was not even 12 yet.
This news was followed by countless medical treatments, including radiotherapy and blood transfusions, but that did not affect Olivier's will to live.
The foundation Les p'tits bonheurs d'Olivier was established in 2001. Its objective is to raise money for families who have children with cancer, and to organize activities to give joy and happiness again to these victims. As we all know, a positive outlook and a smile are the best treatments against this disease. To this day, over $20,000 has been collected for this cause.
Today, I salute the courage of young Olivier Simard, who won this great battle, and the courage of his family. His will to live is an inspiration to us all. Today, at the age of 17, he is about to be declared free of the disease. Even though he has reached this final stage, he does not forget those who are still fighting. Through the foundation Les p'tits bonheurs d'Olivier, he brings them the smiles and the hope that will lead them to where he is now.
Congratulations, Olivier.
Iron Curtain
Statements By Members
2:05 p.m.
Peter Van Loan York—Simcoe, ON
Mr. Speaker, this week we are properly observing the 60th anniversary of the defeat of Nazi tyranny, but we must remember that this also marked the beginning of half a century of occupying Soviet communist terror for millions who lost their freedom as the iron curtain descended across Europe.
The Baltic nations of Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania were particularly brutalized. Hundreds of thousands were systematically murdered or sent to almost certain death in Siberian concentration camps. Millions lost their freedom.
As we mark the anniversary of VE Day, let us not forget the millions for whom freedom would remain only a dream for another half a century.
Birth of a Child
Statements By Members
2:05 p.m.
Jean-Claude D'Amours Madawaska—Restigouche, NB
Mr. Speaker, I am pleased to take this opportunity to rise in the House today to announce the birth of my first child.
Indeed, on Sunday, May 1, my wife gave birth to a beautiful little girl, whom we named Émilie. Both mother and daughter are doing just fine.
I wish to thank the staff at the Edmunston regional hospital, including the nurses and doctors, for their wonderful work during the delivery and the days that followed.
Canada's public health care system is one of the best, and I can attest to the quality of services provided when my little Émilie was born.
I will conclude by thanking the staff of the House of Commons, my colleagues and all those who congratulated me and my wife on the arrival of the newest member of our family. This was truly appreciated.
I am looking forward to holding my wife and little Émilie in my arms again, tomorrow evening.
Holocaust Remembrance Day
Statements By Members
May 5th, 2005 / 2:10 p.m.
Bill Siksay Burnaby—Douglas, BC
Mr. Speaker, today marks Yom Ha-Shoah, national Holocaust Remembrance Day. I rise to honour the spirit of the Holocaust survivors and the memory of the six million Jews who perished.
Let us join together as Canadians to denounce all acts of hate and bigotry directed at the Jewish community. "Never again", must be our commitment. Our actions against anti-Semitism and genocide must become a reality.
Anti-Semitism is on the rise worldwide. In Canada we have seen recent incidents of vandalism, graffiti, arson and desecration of graves. These expressions of hate are completely unacceptable in our free and democratic society. Incidents of hate against one community are felt by all Canadians, as these attacks threaten the very core Canadian values of diversity, equality, human dignity and fundamental human rights.
We must condemn all manifestations of anti-Semitism. We must never blame the victims. Canada can be a leader in the fight against anti-Semitism. New Democrats stand in solidarity with the survivors of the Holocaust, with the Jewish community and with all those who fight to eliminate all forms of hatred and discrimination.
We must work together to address this problem as a nation and celebrate and embrace Canada's diversity and commitment to universal human rights.
National Forest Week
Statements By Members
2:10 p.m.
Gerald Keddy South Shore—St. Margaret's, NS
Mr. Speaker, National Forest Week presents an excellent opportunity to salute the over 360,000 men and women who are part of the Canadian forest products industry.
In my riding of South Shore—St. Margaret's, towns such as Bridgewater, Liverpool, East Chester, Caledonia and my hometown of New Ross are part of the over 320 rural communities across the country that are home to the industry and its employees.
Forestry workers can be proud to say that they are working for a world class industry, not only in terms of its economic significance but also with respect to its record of environmental stewardship.
Canada is a leader among the forestry nations of the world. In fact, a recent study by Yale University found that Canadian forest practices are second to none in the 21st century.

Mr. Speaker, Forest Week has been a tradition in Quebec for more than 125 years. In 2002, this week was turned into a month. This is how May has become Forest Month.
Quebec's forests account for 20% of all forests in Canada and 2% of forests worldwide. Often referred to as lungs, they contain over 2,800 species of trees, bushes and plants. Not only do these "vital organs" provide habitats to thousands of plant and animal species, but they also act as natural filters for the water we use and the air we breathe every day.
During this awareness building month, schools, municipalities, businesses and citizens of Quebec are taking part in a variety of tree planting activities.
The Bloc Québécois is pleased to acknowledge this awareness building month, and we encourage everyone to promote our heritage, this valuable Quebec resource that our forests represent.
President of the Treasury Board
Statements By Members

Inky Mark Dauphin—Swan River, MB
Mr. Speaker, these are sad days in Canadian politics. Yesterday the President of the Treasury Board said in a reference to me, "Frankly, if I was going to recruit somebody, I'd go a little higher up the gene pool".
My gene pool is 100% Chinese. This spitefully racist attack will not be taken lightly by Canada's Chinese community. This kind of thinking led to the passing of the Chinese exclusion act of 1923 that excluded all Asians from Canada for 24 years. This kind of thinking promoted genetic superiority and led to the Holocaust during World War II.
This racial attack goes against Canadian values. Canada is a multicultural society. We have come too far to take a backward step with the Treasury Board president. He cannot continue. Canada cannot tolerate this kind of behaviour from anyone. The Prime Minister must remove the President of the Treasury Board from cabinet.
Conservative Party of Canada
Statements By Members

Mark Holland Ajax—Pickering, ON
Mr. Speaker, the Liberal government has put forward a budget that will strengthen health care, the environment, national child care, our cities and communities and much more.
The Conservatives have flip-flopped and now oppose our ambitious agenda to better the lives of Canadians and in doing so they have revealed themselves. The truth is that the Conservative makeover is actually a "fakeover", an attempt to hide their intentions which no one is buying.
The Calgary Herald says that if someone believes that the Conservatives support the Canada Health Act "you're a candidate for some pretty swampy real estate". An anti-Kyoto group says of the Conservative flip-flop on Kyoto, "I think it is certainly a political ploy".
If actions speak louder than words, the Conservatives' opposition to the Liberal budget speaks volumes about how out of touch they are with Canadians.
Alberta Scene
Statements By Members

David Kilgour Edmonton—Beaumont, AB
Mr. Speaker, congratulations to the National Arts Centre on Alberta Scene. With 600 artists and 95 events at more than 20 venues throughout the national capital region, Alberta Scene is the biggest Alberta arts festival ever held outside our province, a perfect way to celebrate the centennial.
The artists will perform on a national stage, be introduced to new audiences and meet with more than 80 talent scouts, presenters and impresarios from across Canada. In alphabetical order, they include the following: Amir Amiri, Ann Vriend, Barrage, Carolyn Dawn Johnson, Crazy Horse Theatre, Corb Lund, Crystal Plamondon, David Hoffos, DJD, Gordie Johnson, Guys in Disguise, Ian Tyson, John Stetch, Nicole Mion, Oscar Lopez, P.J. Perry, Shani Mootoo, Shumka, SNFU, Terri Clark, the Edmonton Symphony Orchestra, Tommy Banks, who we all know, Tri-Continental, War Party and Wil.
The reaction from Alberta's artist community since the Alberta Scene launch has been tremendous.

Stephen Harper Leader of the Opposition
Mr. Speaker, Chuck Guité has now testified that the Prime Minister was involved in funnelling money to Liberal friendly ad firms. It has been an open secret around this town for 12 years that ministers have been selecting friendly ad firms.
Why does the Prime Minister not just stand up and admit that money went from his ministry to the firms that he favoured?

Paul Martin Prime Minister
Mr. Speaker, as I testified in front of the Gomery commission, I have never interfered in the awarding of any contract.
In terms of the telephone call that was allegedly made, I never engaged in a telephone call or a conversation with Mr. Gagliano about this. Mr. Manley has said that he never engaged in such a conversation. In fact, this morning Mr. Gagliano said that the conversation never took place.
What we are dealing with here is not just second-hand, but third-hand hearsay from a person who has since passed away. What I would suggest is the reason we would listen to Justice Gomery is so the opposition can stop trying to smear people.

Stephen Harper Leader of the Opposition
Mr. Speaker, I will point out that the Prime Minister is now depending on the word of Alfonso Gagliano.
Regardless of the Prime Minister's denial, here are the facts. Chuck Guité testified that the Prime Minister interfered in contracts and we know that money did flow to Vickers & Benson. Alain Renaud testified that the Prime Minister interfered and money did flow to Groupe Everest. Warren Kinsella and Allan Cutler testified that the Prime Minister interfered and money did flow to Earnscliffe.
In every case where the Prime Minister was said to be involved, the money flowed. What other conclusion are Canadians supposed to draw from that?

Paul Martin Prime Minister
Mr. Speaker, I have stated categorically that I have never interfered in a contract. I have given as clear and as unequivocal an answer as I possibly could to that question.
Since the hon. member wants to talk about ethics, twice in the House I have asked the Leader of the Opposition if he will stand in the House and tell us what are the names of the people that he refuses to reveal in terms of his own leadership campaign. If he wants to talk about ethics, then let him stand in the House and tell us why he will not be open and transparent.

Rocky's Makeup Lesson
So we're swiftly approaching the holiday weekend, woo hoo! My company gets half a day today and then tomorrow off. So I get off at 1pm today, yahoo! My bf and I are driving to Orlando tonight and staying until Monday. MAC Pro store here I come! I'm excited :) So I might have limited access this weekend...but I'm bringing the computer and webcam and hopefully I can get a tutorial filmed...I'm thinking of doing a pussycat doll look, woo hoo!
Anywho, back to the makeup lesson...
Last week I had another opportunity to teach another makeup lesson. My client was a part-time model who is used to having her makeup done, but was pretty much clueless about putting it on herself. We started the lesson with a question and answer session. She asked me "How often do you change your brushes?" I was a bit confused. I told her that her brushes should last years if she cleaned them regularly and took care of them. She looked at me confused, lol, and told me that she just threw away her MAC foundation brush because it was dirty. I was like, OMG! Those things are expensive! She knows better now, so another tragedy doesn't happen like that again, lol.
She wanted to go for a smokey eye look that she could recreate herself. Her favorite color was gold so we decided to incorporated a bit of that into her eyeshadow and lipgloss. One of her goals was to cover her blemishes from her recent breakouts. Beforehand, she used only concealer and went through an entire MAC concealer in less than 2 months. I showed her how to apply both foundation and concealer to get the coverage that she wanted. With the right tools and technique she'll go through a lot less product and get better coverage.
I also taught her how to fill in her eyebrows. They make such a difference in framing your face! We used a lot of her own products so that she could learn how to utilize what she has on a day to day basis. Looking back I should have applied black mascara on her to make her eyes pop a bit more, but she only had brown mascara and I wanted to use what she had.
So without further ado, here's a before and after pic. Unfortunately we didn't use the flash in her before picture so she looks 5 shades lighter, lol, than in her after picture. But I promise you that we matched her foundation correctly. I usually do one half of the face and let the client do the other half. Can you guess which side of the face she did?

Re: Parsing data: Part 2
Worked perfectly! The error detecting is amazing. I was able to find the two files that were causing issues and get the problem fixed.
Also, I can totally understand how that much programming under your belt would make ruby pretty easy in comparison. I'm starting at the bottom, with no other programming under my belt, so it's been a struggle trying to get my brain to "think computer". I'm really trying, though.
I'm going to try and digest all this code and if there's anything in particular I don't understand I'll let you know. I'd like to make sure I at least know what everything is doing here.
On the bright side, I at least started with my own script this time without any help... although you ended up doing the whole thing in the end I'm certain I'll post about some other issue I can't figure out again, and next time I want to try and figure out as much as I can on my own.

Earlier this week, MusicRadar conducted exclusive podcast interviews with Caleb and Matthew Followill from Kings Of Leon in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.
The superstar band was in town to play the AJ Palumbo Centre. With a capacity of 6,100, it's surely the most intimate-sized venue on this tour - and now that Only By The Night is exploding in their homeland, Kings Of Leon can probably kiss rooms this size goodbye for good.
Before hooking up with Caleb and Matthew, we dropped by the sound check and found bass tech Jay Schleusener, who was more than happy to show us Jared Followill's main bass and stage set-up. And he let us in on the secret to re-creating Jared's ominous sound that opens the album's lead-off track Closer.

ATI, graphics products group of Advanced Micro Devices, on Thursday unwrapped its new code-named RV790 graphics processing unit (GPU) that enables new performance heights for the ATI Radeon HD 4890 graphics card. While the new chip does not differ substantially from the RV770 launched in 2008, higher clock-speeds and additional overclocking potential allow new solution to offer radically higher framerate in video games.
"The ATI Radeon HD 4890 graphics card represents the AMD sweet spot strategy reloaded. With last year's launch of the ATI Radeon HD 4850 and ATI Radeon HD 4870 products, we gave gamers great performance and an incredible value proposition. Today, we are doing it again. ATI Radeon HD 4890 graphics cards are incredible performers, priced to sell in all major markets worldwide," said Rick Bergman, senior vice president and general manager of AMD's graphics products group.
Just like its predecessor, ATI RV790 graphics processing unit features 800 stream processors, 40 texture units, 16 render back ends as well as 256-bit memory bus compatible with GDDR3, GDDR4 and GDDR5 memory types. The RV790 features 850MHz clock-speed, but add-in-card manufacturers may clock the new chips at speeds up to 1000MHz. ATI recommends its partners to clock 1GB of GDDR5 memory to 3900MHz.
While the RV790 chip resembles specifications of the RV770 and the chip is still made using 55nm general purpose process technology, the novelty is not hand-picked RV770 with high clock-speed potential, but a reworked graphics processor. In fact, the RV790 even has higher transistor count: it features 959 million transistors, 3 million higher compared to RV770.
"We have reconfigured the ASIC to support high clock-speeds than could be achieved on RV770. To achieve this, we have re-done the power distribution of the ASIC, re-timed it and also added larger de-coupling capacitors on the ASIC to clean up noise and increase signal integrity; this latter element is the primary cause of the increased transistor count. All of these changes, though, are in order to facilitate high clockspeeds and to allow us to run GDDR5 memories at higher rates," explained David Baumann, a technical marketing manager at AMD.
The ATI Radeon HD 4890 graphics card is supported by a dozen add-in-board companies offering a variety of custom board and cooling solutions. Partners include Asustek Computer, Club 3D, Diamond Multimedia, Force3D, GeCube, Gigabyte, HIS (Hightech Information Systems), Jetway, MSI, Palit Multimedia, PowerColor, Sapphire Technology, VisionTek and XFX. The boards are available immediately at manufacturer suggested retail price of $249, and priced at select e-tailers at as low as $229 after mail-in rebate.

Topic: This belongs in the model, not having an easy time getting it there
I have a user model that I'd like to generate a invitation token with. The use case would be after the user signs up, they can invite others to the application through their personalized url. Something like: firstname.lastname@example.com token.
I've been working for a while on simply generating a unique token but couldn't keep from generating an inifinte loop in the model. I was hoping someone could help me here. I'm sure it's simple code, I'm just missing something.
Here's what I have now:
@user = User.new(params[:user])
def make_new_token
fn = full_name.gsub(/\s/, "")
self.invite_token = fn
valid? #need to run validations on this model to see if there's an error with the invite token
while errors.on(:invite_token)
puts self.invite_token = fn + "#{i ||= 1}"
valid? #important! to avoid infinite loop need to re-check if errors
I really think this belongs in the model to be executed before the validations but I haven't been able to make it work. Thanks in advance for your help.

@ths1104, from The Internet Wishlist
An image of wooden prayer tablets in Japan made me think of this virtual suggestion box, of sorts, where people can petition their "prayers" for the future of technology. The quotation above was one of those submissions, which I liked because it suggests using technology to serve and connect.
The Internet Wishlist creates a space for people to share the holes and needs in their complex lives where apps and websites could do them some good. Start-ups and developers, pay attention to these missives! The pedestrian longings of today could lead to the technological advances of the future.
