In short: Scenic marathon, great, vocal supporters - just a shame about the heat!Date of review: May 28, 2010
In short: Potential for great race spoilt by too many organisational issuesIn full: Why did they change the route that was run in 2006 ? That started in Princes St. and ended in Holyrood Park, and went via Leith, along coast to Portobello and back to the city - a bit hilly in last few miles but a much better route all round - and of course no transport problems at the end.My main gripes, already echoed by many others were :1) Not enough water between 16 and 21 - need to be every mile if the race start time is to remain as late as it is.2) No shade at end and a long stagger back to the reunion area - in 2007 when it finished at Musselburgh, I don't recall there being this problem. 3) Rubber mat in finishing straight - was like a bad dream where all your efforts to move forward are thwarted - again, in 2007 the finish was fine - why change it ?4) My Garmin measured the distance as 26.48 miles, that's 450m longer than it should be - now I know the accuracy of a Garmin is not always perfect but I am convinced the distance was at least 400m long - that's about 2 minutes at my pace.

In short: good but could be betterIn full: my first marathon and happy with my time considering the heat!good points:1.pre race emails and details were excellent and easy to understand.2.start of race was well marshalled and public toilets at end of london road was handy to find.3.course was fast and good to see some scenery on the way (not including cockenzie power station!)4.plenty of water and lucozade plus support was excellent from locals and kids handing out jelly babies.oranges and water.5.excellent t shirt and medal6.text messaging service was nice touch.bad points:1.did not like the detour off the coastal road for a mile to make up the distance.start of race could be moved possibly to avoid runners having to adjust their pace to run around a cone!2.the gosford park stretch could have done with a water station plus the surface was tricky in some places.3.the finish on the matting was a nightmare and should be moved to finishing on the road somewhere else.4.start of race should be brought forward to between 7-9am to avoid running in hottest part of day.5.the results would be better if running club names are mentioned.overall i enjoyed my first marathon experience until i hit the wall at 22 miles!having previously ran the cardiff half marathon last year and seen the chaos of the baggage reclaim and transport issues post race i decided to stay in a campsite close to finish which was three quarter full of runners!i found this arrangement ideal as the walk back was good for my legs and the journey in to the start was easy as long as you gave yourself plenty of time.i agree with other people's comments about the reunion area access and lack of marshalls directing runners to the shuttle buses.if the organisers pay heed to everyone's constructive comments then there is no reason why this race shouldn't grow and grow.Date of review: May 28, 2010
In short: Not enough drinks stations and too far to walk to collect bags and not enough signs for transport back to EdinburghIn full: This was my first marathon and I must say I was a little disappointed. There were not enough drinks stations and to say that collecting bags and getting back to Edinburgh at the end was a shambles was an understatement. After the hottest day of the year, we had to queue to get our photos taken in the heat, still with no shelter. There was also no sheleter for runners to strech out in at the end after walking the best part of what felt like 1 mile to collect our baggage. Runners were crammed behind the lorries to get some cover. I had also allowed 4 hours to get back to my hotel and relax prior to getting my plane back home, but it took nearly 2 hours sitting in the sun with no shade to catch a bus back to the City. There appeared very little organisation to give priority to runners and before we knew it after the end of the race we were surrounded by supporters.I know the weather cannot be guaranteed, but would it not make sense for the marathon to start prior to the 1/2 marathon say around 8.30 in case of the heat? Would it not also be bette to end the race closer to the city? I do worry that the route cannot support this number of runners.Date of review: May 28, 2010
In short: A good race but don't get caught by the hype.In full: I have run this race for the last 4 years and will be back next year. I think it is a great event but would urge all to watch out for the hype and understand that this is not necessarily what you would expect.The criticisms of the route are fair as anyone expecting "Edinburgh", which makes only a cameo appearance at the start, will be disappointed. For those who criticise this, however, why didn't you check out the route before hand? If the race finished in Edinburgh or even was around Edinburgh, can you imagine the hills! The route is fine and benefits from being closed to traffic for well over 2/3 of it.Although it is downhill and "fast", do not be lulled into believing it is easy as it is not. The intense heat has affected the race for the last two years and makes it VERY tough. If that isn't a factor, in previous years, the wind coming off the sea which is always in your face is just as bad. Be prepared for a challenge.I didn't experience the baggage reclaim or the shuttle buses but would suggest that a little realism needs to come into play. Other marathons I have run have needed an equal amount of walking to get to transport (if not more). In the mighty metropolis of New York, the only way to get back to the hotel was to walk as the taxis were all full and that was nearly 3 miles! The transport does get difficult around Musselburgh and I truly hope that the event isn't getting too big to cope.The medal is the best I have got at the end of a race for the 2nd year running.The start was very well managed and put London to shame this year. Pens were policed, kept separate as you approached the line to allow a clear run. WELL DONE!I do have some major gripes:Firstly the toilets at the start for the second year were a joke. Nowhere near enough, tucked away, signs advertising that you would need to queue. Where are the urinals which would have removed a huge volume of the queue (they had them 2 years ago). This is a basic which should not be got wrong.Secondly, although water was available after last year's calamity, it was not regular enough and the lack of stations between 16-22 miles (or thereabouts) was shameful. It was really frustrating to run past the last relay changeover to see pallets of water on the outbound route that was now clear of runners and none being handed to us.Lastly, communication from GSI was terrible. Reading some of the comments made by others (eg where do I put the chip) suggest runners ought to read the information they are sent as much was made clear in the newsletters etc. However, why oh why wait until a week before to send out race packs. We were told they would be here by Saturday of the week before. Mine didn't arrive. Email to GSI asking what to do. No response. Pack doesn't arrive on Monday. Email to GSI exactly as described in FAQs. No response. Pack eventually arrives on Tuesday. Email to GSI telling them not to worry. No response. The first reply I got was late evening on the Friday before the race when I was already in Edinburgh and 240 miles from home telling me they would reissue a number. Do they have no idea what it is to train and get psyched up for an event and then have to set off not knowing if all will be well. This was unacceptable to me.The push back of the start time in order to accomodate the half marathon may be a reasonable compromise for the event but put all the runners under intense heat for longer than would normally be the case. However, I would urge the person who made the comment in their review that this meant the faster runners had to finish in the heat to take a look at the poor soles who were slower and in the heat far longer.Overall, I have some strong frustration and think that the comments made by others are fair. This is a great race though which I fear may be getting too big. It can be managed well but can the organiser, GSI, actually do that?Date of review: May 28, 2010
In short: Not the most scenic course and the distance to the bags and buses was a problem but overall a good dayDate of review: May 28, 2010
In full: Organisationally a disaster, Lack of Water Stations especially in the extreme heat for second year running. Lack of City sights, more like a coastal run than a City Marathon. Start in the city see some sights before going out to Crammond Newhaven, Leith. Portabello and then to the finish at Musleburgh.Baggage collection area too far away from finish (approx 15 minute walk)and Special buses back good idea but again the 30 minute walk was too far and no signage to where they were.Needs more water stations and greater number of on course first aiders. Date of review: May 27, 2010
In short: A reasonable race on a very warm dayIn full: As others have said I think the start and the management of the course itself was a good improvement on last year.The marshalls, spectators and the other runners were excellent in providing encouragement and support when the going got tough.Thanks particularly to the people of local towns / villages for the vocal support, the hosepipe cooling, unofficial drinks stations and jelly babies - excellent.What let the race down, as has already been said, was the distance from the finish line to the baggage lorries and then on to the shuttle buses. The last thing you want, when you've just run a marathon is another 2 miles of walking.I plan to return next year, hopefully to improve on my time and also to see further improvements in the organisation, particularly at the finish.Date of review: May 27, 2010
In short: Very enjoyable day, apart from the walk to the shuttle buses. In full: I think some of the critics have been a bit harsh. I personally enjoyed the course and thought the scenery was superb, much better than looking at concrete and glass. Yes there are a few gripes but nothing major apart from the 20 minute walk to the buses. Will be back - loved Edinburgh.Date of review: May 27, 2010
In short: Fiinish area and transport a mojor problemIn full: This was my second Edinburgh, so I knew what to expect. When the organisers get somethning right, they get something else wrong. Last year it was the water fiasco. This year, plenty water but major problems in the baggage reclaim and transport. The traffic is scrwed anyway and 95% of runners want to get back to Edinburgh centre to their hotel or for onwards departures, Until the organisers get a smooth transport system to handle that there will be issues. I agree with what others have said. Also the race started too late (to accommodate the earlier half) but that meant even the fsater runners ( 3 hours) were still on the route as the hottest part of the day. A 9am start at the latest, please. I may do this again as a local who wants this to be Scotland's Permier Marathon to rival London but it will be some years before that is assured.Date of review: May 27, 2010

Has anyone seen a 16 x 20(or 22) x 1 solid kiln shelf anywhere? I have been looking and have not found one.
A local pottery store near me will cut them to size. I would expect others to also provide that service.http://www.amherstpotters.com/index.html

In the formulation you used at Reply 21 http://www.pizzamaking.com/forum/index.php/topic,7931.msg68379.html#msg68379 you used 2.5% salt and 3% oil for your NY style. Wasnt the salt at that high amount too much for your palate?
Norma,If you look at Reply 14 at http://www.pizzamaking.com/forum/index.php/topic,7931.msg68159.html#msg68159, you will see in the penultimate paragraph that I mentioned 1.75% for the salt. If you then look at the following Reply 15 at http://www.pizzamaking.com/forum/index.php/topic,7931.msg68165.html#msg68165, you will see that Terry Deane suggested that the salt value be increased to 2.5%. Since I considered Terry to be an expert on the NY style, as well as a professional specializing in that style, I deferred to his suggestion that the salt be increased to 2.5%. That value was reflected in the dough formulation I created for Mike (Essen1) in Reply 21 that you referenced. For myself, I would perhaps have gone back to 1.75% since I have been conscious for years about sodium levels in pizzas. I found it interesting that what I proposed to you is pretty much in line with what I set forth in Replies 14 and 21 but for the salt level that I explained above with respect to Reply 21. I think that is because I tend to think in principles and then attach numbers to them once I know what the objectives are. It looks like the principles I applied over three years ago are the same as I applied to your case. Peter
Must have been the new refridgerator last week that might have been too warm that caused the fast fermenting.
Looks like the Lehmanns 1 day might work for you Norma. Nice pics btw.
Norma,Can you please provide a link to the one-day Lehmann dough that you have been testing? Is it the one at Reply 940 at http://www.pizzamaking.com/forum/index.php/topic,576.msg175315.html#msg175315? Also, have you been using the KASL for that dough?Peter

Getting help with the physical part of addiction to smokeless tobacco
Remember, tobacco addiction is mental and physical. For most people, the best way to quit will be some combination of medicine, a method to change personal habits, and emotional support. There are medicines you can try, though they have not been studied as much for quitting smokeless tobacco as they have for smoking. Here are the more common medicines used for quitting tobacco.
Nicotine replacement therapy
Nicotine replacement is a way to get nicotine without the other harmful chemicals in tobacco. For smokeless tobacco users, nicotine replacement therapy (NRT) has been proven to help reduce craving and withdrawal symptoms. Lack of success in quitting is often related to withdrawal symptoms, which can be reduced with NRT. Together with counseling or other support, NRT can increase the number of smokeless tobacco users who quit.
The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has approved these NRT products as effective aids for helping people to quit smoking. None of these products has been FDA-approved specifically to help people quit smokeless tobacco. Studies are still being done, but many are reporting success using these methods:
- Nicotine gum
- Nicotine patch
- Nicotine lozenges
- Nicotine inhaler
- Nicotine nasal spray
Nicotine gum, patches, and lozenges can be bought over the counter (without a prescription). Nicotine nasal spray and inhalers are available only with a doctor's prescription.
For smokeless tobacco users, certain types of NRT may help more than others. If you look at the way the tobacco is used, nicotine gum and lozenges are most like using smokeless tobacco. They also let you control your dose to help keep nicotine cravings down.
The nicotine inhaler may not be as useful for smokeless tobacco users, as it's designed to look and feel like a cigarette. The nicotine patch gives a steady dose of nicotine, but may not help with strong cravings. Still, the patch may be more useful for people who prefer once-a-day convenience. Studies using higher-dose nicotine patches in heavy users of smokeless tobacco have found that the higher doses were more helpful in both reducing withdrawal symptoms and increasing quit rates.
No matter which type of NRT you choose, make sure to follow the package instructions and don't use any tobacco, including smokeless tobacco, when using a nicotine replacement.
NRT products are supposed to roughly match the amount of nicotine you get from NRT to the amount you typically took in through tobacco. It can be more of a challenge to get the dose right for smokeless tobacco users, since NRT products are labeled for smokers.
In general, a person who uses more than 3 cans of snuff or 3 pouches of tobacco a week is thought of as a heavy user, and would typically use the higher doses of NRT (the dose for heavy smokers). Those who use 2 to 3 cans or pouches per week would usually try the moderate doses, and those who use less than 2 would start with the lowest doses of NRT. If you have decided to try NRT, discuss your dose with your doctor before you quit tobacco.
To avoid withdrawal symptoms, you want to aim for a nicotine dose fairly close to what you got from snuff or tobacco use. You don't want to get much more than that, because high doses of nicotine can cause harm. (See the section called "Can you get too much nicotine from NRT?") If you need more details on NRT products, see our document called Guide to Quitting Smoking.
Getting the most from nicotine replacement
Nicotine replacement therapy (NRT) only helps with the physical part of withdrawal. It's not meant to be the only thing you use to quit. NRT works best when it's used with other quitting aids such as group sessions or counseling. NRT reduces physical withdrawal symptoms so you can focus on coping with the mental and emotional aspects of quitting.
If you choose to use it, NRT works best if it's started at the same time you try to quit. Often tobacco users first try to quit on their own, and then decide to try NRT a day or more into quitting. This method does not give you the greatest chance of success, but don't let this discourage you. There are many options available for quitting.
You should not use NRT if you plan to keep using any tobacco product. You can get too much nicotine this way.
When can I begin using nicotine replacement therapy?
You can start using nicotine replacement therapy (NRT) as soon as you throw away your tobacco. You don't need to wait a certain length of time to put on the patch or start using the gum, lozenge, nasal spray, or inhaler. Double-check this information with the instructions on your chosen method of nicotine replacement, but in general there's no need to wait to start using NRT.
Tobacco users who are pregnant or have heart disease should talk to a doctor before using any over-the-counter NRT. You may need a different type of help with quitting, and your doctor may need to see you more often if you use NRT.
Can you get too much nicotine from NRT?
It's important to follow the package directions or your doctor's guidance when using nicotine replacement therapy (NRT). Nicotine overdose is rare, but possible. Even just a bit too much can cause some of the milder symptoms listed below. An overdose can cause death. Overdose is more of a problem with children and pets because of their small size. Nicotine is absorbed through the skin, so you must use, store, and dispose of your NRT safely. Keep new NRT and any used gum or empty bottles, cartridges, patches, etc., safely away from children and pets.
It would be rare for an adult trying to quit tobacco to get a serious overdose using NRT. But with liquid forms that can absorb quickly through the skin, overdose could happen. That's why you should not use a heat source (like a heating pad or heat lamp) near your nicotine patch – the extra blood supply could cause more nicotine to absorb. All forms of NRT can be harmful if too much is taken in.
Here are some symptoms of too much nicotine:
- Headache
- Nausea and vomiting
- Belly pain
- Diarrhea
- Agitation, restlessness
- Fast or irregular heartbeat
- Cold sweat
- Pale skin and mouth
- Weakness
- Tremors (shaking)
- Confusion
- Disturbed vision and hearing
- High blood pressure, which then drops
- Dizziness or faintness (from low blood pressure)
- Seizures
- Fast breathing in early poisoning, breathing may stop later
Call your Poison Control Center at 1-800-222-1222 and get emergency help if you suspect an overdose. If you're taking NRT as directed and are still having mild symptoms such as headache, vomiting, diarrhea, or sweating, lower your dose and talk to your doctor.
Prescription medicines
Prescription drugs are also available to help people quit tobacco. Some can be used along with nicotine replacement therapy (NRT), and some must be started a week or more before you plan to quit. Talk to your doctor if you want to use medicine to help you quit. You will need a prescription for any of these drugs.
Varenicline (brand name Chantix®) is a prescription medicine taken as a pill twice a day. It works by interfering with nicotine receptors in the brain. It lessens the physical pleasure of taking in nicotine and helps lessen the symptoms of nicotine withdrawal. It must be started at least a week before quitting.
Varenicline has been found to increase long-term (6-month) success in quitting among smokeless tobacco users. One small study of people who were not trying to quit smokeless tobacco found that a few quit or cut down their tobacco intake while taking varenicline. Other recent studies have shown that smokeless tobacco users taking varenicline were much more likely to quit compared to those taking a placebo ("sugar pill"). Still, more study on this is needed.
Tell your doctor about any medical conditions and allergies before you start varenicline. Reported side effects have included headaches, nausea, vomiting, trouble sleeping, unusual dreams, gas, and changes in taste. People with heart disease may have a higher risk of heart attacks while taking varenicline. There have also been reports of depressed mood, thoughts of suicide, attempted suicide, anxiety, panic, aggression, confusion, and other changes in behavior or mood in people taking varenicline. People who notice these problems while taking varenicline should contact their doctors right away. Reports of these side effects have been rare, but they can be serious when they do happen. Most people don't have these emotional or behavioral problems while taking the drug.
It's not completely clear if it's safe to use varenicline along with NRT. More research is needed.
Bupropion (brand names are Zyban®, Wellbutrin®, or Aplenzin®) is a prescription anti-depressant in an extended-release form that reduces symptoms of nicotine withdrawal. It does not contain nicotine. This drug acts on chemicals in the brain that are related to nicotine craving.
Bupropion is FDA approved as an aid in quitting smoking, but it's not clear if it's useful for smokeless tobacco users. A 2007 study found that it helped reduce cravings and weight gain in people who were trying to quit smokeless tobacco. But in that clinical trial, the group taking bupropion had about the same success rate as the group taking placebo (sugar pills).
As of 2014, studies have not found bupropion that helpful for people trying to stop using smokeless tobacco.
Bupropion works best in smokers if they start taking it 1 or 2 weeks before their quit date. The usual dosage is one or two 150 mg tablets per day. Talk to a doctor to find out if this might be an option for you.
Bupropion can be used alone or with NRT. You should not take it if you have ever had seizures, serious head injury, bipolar (manic-depressive) illness, anorexia or bulimia (eating disorders), cirrhosis, or problems with heavy alcohol use.

Stanford's Missy Penna named USA Softball Player of the Week for March 23-29
OKLAHOMA, Okla. --- The Amateur Softball Association announced today that Stanford senior pitcher Missy Penna (Miami, Fla.) was named the USA Softball Player of the Week for the week of March 23-29. Leading the Cardinal to No. 2 in this week's Top 25 poll, Penna tossed 34.1 innings, fanned 45 batters, beat three ranked teams and held the then No. 2 Washington Huskies scoreless for 18 consecutive innings.
"It's such an honor to be chosen by USA Softball among so many great players," said Penna. "My team was really behind me this weekend, played great defense and came through to score runs in key situations. I'm excited by how our team is playing right now and hope to carry that momentum into the rest of the Pac-10 season."
She won two pitcher's duels with Washington ace Danielle Lawrie, enough to tie Stanford's school win record (105), move into ninth place on the Pac-10's career strikeout list and build her ongoing school shutout record to 45.
"We are very excited that Missy won the USA Softball National Player of the Week," said Stanford head coach John Rittman. "She has worked extremely hard not only her entire career, but this year as well. She is leading our team both off and on the field and this is great honor for her and our program."
Penna began the week with a 10-inning marathon against No. 25 Cal Poly where the Cardinal won 2-1. In the game, she shattered her own school single-game record with 19 strikeouts.
In conference play, Penna became just the second pitcher this season to beat Washington with its ace in the circle, then repeated the feat in her second game against the Huskies Sunday. Penna fanned 13 in an 11-inning marathon on Saturday, then returned less than 24 hours later and held tight for seven more innings to take home another win on Sunday.
Penna was previously a USA Softball Player of the Week during the 2008 season for the week of Feb. 4-10.

CAA Launches Review of North Sea Operations as Avincis, Bristow and CHC Team to Improve Safety
Outside of Helitech, the UK's Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) has announced that it is to review North Sea helicopter operations together with the Norwegian CAA and the European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA). According to the CAA statement, the review "will study current operations, previous incidents and accidents and offshore helicopter flying in other countries to make recommendations aimed at improving the safety of offshore flying."
CAA's head of flight operations, Capt. Bob Jones, will lead the review, working closely with Geir Hamre, head of helicopter safety for the Norwegian CAA and will be supported by industry experts and independents. The review will focus on operator decision-making and internal management; the protection of passengers and crew; pilot training and performance; and helicopter airworthiness. The review will be published in early 2014.
The CAA announcement came a day before Avincis Group, Bristow Group and CHC unveiled plans to work together to review procedures, share best practices and improve safety. The joint review will examine processes, safety, training and flight operations, focusing first on Europe. Other areas will include automation, emergency equipment and response, human factors, manufacturing, safety communication and training.

If you want to "sponsor" a family, consider the impact of sponsoring a child on both the family and community. When Compassion children experience success in their lives — no matter how big or small — they are excited to share with their loved ones. Sponsorship of one child touches the lives of many relatives, so while you can't sponsor a family, you can provide help to the family through the child.
When poverty is prevalent, bringing in funds for the household becomes a family affair. In impoverished countries, many children cannot go to school because they must work. Even though Compassion offers one-to-one child sponsorship, an educated child with greater earning potential can significantly affect household income. In a sense, then, when you sponsor a child, by extension you sponsor a family!
Help a child, help a community
Compassion's unique approach to child development is to raise healthy, balanced children. Children who are balanced spiritually, emotionally, socially and physically can help their families and communities in extraordinary ways. Rather than sponsor a family, sponsor a child through an environment that is:
Sponsoring a child through Compassion is easy. You can develop a loving relationship with your child through letters and photographs. You can even visit your child. You will experience the gratification of knowing you're not only touching the life of one child, but actually having an effect on a family and perhaps an entire community that desperately needs the skills and contributions of your Compassion child. Don't wait — sponsor your child today!
Though Compassion can't help you actually sponsor a family, we can help you impact a family as you sponsor a child in need. Your commitment to sponsor a child helps a family and a community as you provide that child with the tools to rise from poverty and help others.

Violent Shootings: Are There Warning Signs?
July 20, 2012 -- Many Americans wonder whether a shooter can be spotted before he commits a violent act. That question likely resurfaced after a 24-year-old gunman allegedly opened fire during a screening of the Batman movie The Dark Knight Rises, in Aurora, Colo. Twelve people died and dozens were injured in the shooting.
Are there signs, symptoms, a profile? Can parents safeguard their children from these people -- or be sure their child is not developing into one?
WebMD turned to Jack Levin, PhD, the Irving and Betty Brudnick Professor of Sociology and Criminology at Northeastern University in Boston. He has written numerous books on violence, including Serial Killers and Sadistic Murderers -- Up Close and Personal, and Extreme Killing: Understanding Serial and Mass Murder.
Is there a profile of these mass murderers?
"There is a profile, but here is the problem with the profile," he says. "It applies not only to mass killers but to millions of other people who have never hurt anyone. So you have to be careful where you apply it."
Even so, certain characteristics do point to the possibility of being a mass murderer, Levin says.
"The first is chronic depression, over a long period of time," he says. "The second is social isolation -- having no place to turn when you get into trouble. The third is blaming everyone else for your problems."
Those who blame only themselves, he says, are more apt to commit suicide if they become very troubled.
"There is almost always a catastrophic loss -- the loss of a job, relationship, money in the stock market, being deeply in debt,'' Levin says.

Skip to comments.Fixing Our Broken Immigration System will save One Trillion Dollars! (over the next two decades)
Posted on 06/20/2013 12:01:04 PM PDT by pabianice
Hi, all!
This week, we got some big news about the immigration reform bill. It's a little wonky, but it's so great that I couldn't wait to share it with you.
The nonpartisan experts who estimate the financial impact of legislation for Congress concluded that because undocumented immigrants will start paying more in taxes for things like education and Social Security, the immigration proposal in the Senate will make the economy fairer for middle class families while cutting the U.S. deficit by almost $1,000,000,000,000 over the next two decades.
With every passing day, its becoming clear that we cant afford not to act. Now we know exactly how much is at stake, and it's the kind of news that can help to change the policy conversation in Washington.
So we've put together a graphic that explains exactly how this works, and we need your help to share it. If more people get the facts, it'll be easier to build a nationwide, bipartisan consensus to get this done.
Take a look, then share this graphic with folks you know:
Thank you so much!
Cecilia Muñoz
Director, Domestic Policy Council
The White House
As much believability as the fake BC.
How do we know it's broken? It is not enforced.
Just like "healthcare reform" was going to save gazillions.
I think the term is hoese sh*t
Cecilia Muñoz is a liar, a ditz and a moron. The kids in the White House need to stop reading and believing their own press releases. Morons.
The alternative to the "trillion dollar coin" — invent a trillion dollar savings using the worst of all collateral, people who won't earn a dime.
I mean...if you can't trust the former VP of La Raza...who can you? (puke)
"I think the term is hoese sh*t"
I use "horseclinton".
And if you need a BC or any other documentation our underground Hispanic community can help you with that! Oh only of course if you are the right type of person.
I think the bill will save a kazillion dollars, save or create several bazillion jobs, and generate boo coo tax dollars. It will also provide an unlimited supply of happy skittle-pooping unicorns flying over magic rainbows.
Right! She probably thinks a new car is an "investment". too!
My sentiments exactly. When you never use something, it doesn't need fixing.
Horse pucky!!!
$1 trillion over two decades?
Pfft...chump change.
Tell me Miss (excuse me I mean "Ms.") Munoz: how much will these "undocumented workers" COST us over those same two decades? Hmm?
Don't see that lil factoid in your analysis do we?
There should be a barf alert in the title.
Blasphemy!! You doubt the CBO? How dare you!!! The illegals won't cost us anything. They're Free!!!
I have always noticed that the leaders in Mexico and the leaders of La Raza tend to be light skinned (castallenos) while the darker skinned people (morenos) are at the bottom of the pile. I notice the same thing when I look at Mexican television and look at the actors and newscasters. Of course they are always calling us racist. Just saying.....
They think we're stupid!!
That's enough money to pay for the healthcare for the illegals. /S
The pigmentation caste system is lively in most of Latin America.
It's different in my wife's country, Cuba. Money rules there, and nationality.
My wife is reasonably fair (not like me, tho—I'm French/Swedish), but that doesn't count. My f-in-law's people are from Greece and the Canary Islands and owned vast tracts of land. That money talked loudly.
He arrived in Miami with nothing, but made a new fortune here from scratch, which regained him his status in the diaspora community.
That his daughter married an American with little money (at the time) was quite a step down for them. Fortunately, I'm quite pretty so they accepted me with smothering arms.
And if you know your Hispanic families, you know about those "smothering arms."
Go back and fix your own country...
Ejecting 11-20 million illegals will save even more.
Californias 2013-14 budget calls for K thru 12 education of $41,191,701,000.
Higher education budget is 11,436,791,000.
The entire budget is $145,826,550,000
K-12 is 28% of the budget
Higher education is another 8%
So, with a school budget of 36% of the state budget, why is nobody talking about how much it costs to raise their kids?
Below is a link to a local Los Angeles school where it costs $12,000 average per kid a year in school. From this link you can go to any school district in the country.
Van Nuys Elementary School
The school is rated 3 out of 10
94% of this school is Hispanic
The API test score for this school and state are 2/10 and it has gone down 13 points from 2011 to 2012
50% of the kids are eligible for free breakfast, lunch and dinner with a state average of 54%
50% are English learners with a state average of 24%
A kid going thru K-12 school in Los Angeles will cost $156,000.
There is no way this amnesty can be a positive move.
You know, building the fence will also take decades and decades and save 1 trillion dollars.
For some odd reason I will go with the fence.
Do you have any idea how many armed men we could put on the border for the next 20 years for a trillion dollars?
Fixing Our Broken Immigration System will save One Trillion Dollars! (over the next two decades)....in centavos....if you don't count the 12 trillion dollars that it will cost us....and the 75 million jobs lost to Americans that are here legally.....and discounting the loss of lives of legal Americans because of illegal criminals sneaking over the borders...
...other that it sounds like a good deal!
Will the Central Bank of Mexico convert the Trillion dollars in centavos into pesos for us?
New tagline...
Just like obamacare is supposed to save trillions, too!
Save two trillion dollars, the CBO said the same thing about obamacare, and then reversed itself after the Bill passed.
The debt was about 10 trillion when these jokers took over. It is almost 17 trillion now.
It's risible for these clowns to talk about money saved: they spend it as fast as they can.
No more debt limit increases. No undocumented democrats. No more money to muslims. No mas!
Anything they propose—other than resigning en masse—No.
Funny how the mnetal midgets can spew crap and there are those who eat it and request more. I personally though we were going to save a gazzillion dollars but what do I know
I read the title of the article, got down to whitehouse.gov and stopped reading right there.
I have had more than enough BULLSH#T for today.

Page 2 - the rest of the storyPosted Tuesday, April 29, 2008, at 7:29 AM
Abid Hussein of FEMA distributes flood information to Lela Brown, who lives on one of the Advance streets flooded on March 18, 2008. Though the Advance Recovery Center was closed on Saturday, April 26, residents may still register online or by phone until May 27, 2008.
In particular, a casual remark I reported on from an Advance Board of Alderman meeting sparked the agency to investigate the source and set the record straight.
One of the aldermen had repeated something a friend had told him - that one of the victims of the flooding had said all he received from FEMA was "$90.00 and a bottle of bleach." (Actually, he also mentioned a mop, but I didn't remember that...)
As is often the case, there is more to the story than meets the eye... The $90.00, the mop, and the bleach were actually given to the man by the Red Cross - not FEMA. This individual lived nowhere near a river but had 18 inches of water in a location which had never flooded before. FEMA did give him approximately $100, but, since he had insurance, he didn't qualify for more.
Jack Heesch, FEMA Public Relations Director for this area, gave me some recent figures, which I think are relevant to this discussion: As of yesterday, April 28, 2008, FEMA had registered 4,833 people in a 35-county area and dispersed $10.200 million in flood relief funds. In Stoddard County, 167 people are registered with FEMA. The Advance Recovery Center, which closed Saturday, registered 158 individuals from the surrounding area.
Though not all the claims have been processed, approximately 73 have received the maximum grants from FEMA - $28,000.
Jack Heesch reports that some homes are experiencing "repetitive damage," so the owners need to call FEMA and report this, as they may qualify for more assistance.
Heesch also emphasized that SBA (the Small Business Administration) is set up to handle the long-term recovery process with low interest loans - as I originally reported on my first FEMA blog. From what I understand, the Jackson and Piedmont recovery sites have been switched over to SBA for this purpose.
Here is the contact information for FEMA:
If you were affected by the floods -- even if the mess is all cleaned up -- call FEMA's toll-free registration line, 800-621-3362 (TTY: 800-462-7585), from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. daily, or register online at www.fema.gov. You may be eligible for help.

HI BIG BROTHER...haha. Every government office has screwed someone over in some form or fashion that would get any normal people thrown in jail...none of them can deny that. Just look how FEMA turned down all them counties in Illinois...
-- Posted by mrsdolphin on Tue, Apr 29, 2008, at 8:41 PM
Come on Madeline, all he received was $90.00, bleach and a mop. Did the person thank them or the taxpayers or the Red Cross? Where does anyone have the actual right to get anything? Should they give you more if you have insurance to cover the damages? Should the Red Cross? I don't know, but you should be thankful. Say thank you, please.
-- Posted by I.B. Le Truth on Wed, Apr 30, 2008, at 8:34 PM
Madeline Dejournett's response:I.B., you're being too subtle for me - I think I may be missing your point. You're saying that the man in question (the one with the $90, the mop, and the bleach) should be thanking the Red Cross for giving him this much aid, when he could have gotten nothing - right? Yet you said, "All he received was..."
I'm totally neutral in this issue...I really don't have an opinion, one way or another. I'm just reporting what I heard, and I got myself in trouble for repeating what the alderman said, so I wanted to make sure I printed a clarification.
This is all tax money, so, as U.S. taxpayers, we're footing the bill for this disaster, and I think FEMA wants to keep an eye on our money and not give it out wastefully.
I really think that this whole issue shows just how careful the agency wants to be, after the disasterous press they got during the Katrina catastrophe.
I didn't mean to be mean, I was just repeating the victim as you quoted him or her. I took it to mean that the person was upset about that, which I could understand in some cases I guess, but it seems that all I hear anymore is complaints and no thanks. It seems to me that everyone thinks there is some right to be given to and I just don't think that there is.
-- Posted by I.B. Le Truth on Thu, May 1, 2008, at 9:27 PM
Madeline Dejournett's response:Okay, that's what I thought you meant. It does seem ungrateful for someone to get money from FEMA and then complain that it isn't enough. We seem to expect so much from our government - and then we complain when they don't move fast enough.
Of course, they do collect our taxes for this very purpose...
Some people really know how to work the system -- and the rest of us pay for it.
GL, When I was a kid we had drills in school to hide under our desk to protect us from a surprise nuclear attack by the big bad USSR. One of my teachers told us that a major difference between the US and the USSR was that in the US we had freedom after speech, while in the USSR they had freedom before speech. The point being that expressing a politically incorrect opinion could have unpleasant consequences in the USSR. Several years ago I read a book written by a Russian who lived through the Stalinist era and then the Khrushchev regime and those that followed. He explained that you had to be careful of what you said at work, in public or over the telephone, but that everyone freely expressed their opinions in the privacy of their home or the home of friends.
We now know that the federal government is electronically monitoring every email and telephone call in the U.S., and it has access to your internet searches, etc., all without a warrant. And as MD has informed us, they are also monitoring blogs. You can be be be fired from your job, sued, considered suspicious, or even criminally prosecuted for being a free thinker and expressing a single unapproved "opinion" in the U.S.
The United States has progressed to the point that it is now mimicking Stalinist Russia: We are free to say what we think in the privacy of our home or those of trusted friends, but unless your mind is right like Winston's was in "Nineteen Eighty-Four" after he was subjected to treatment in Room 101, you need to be mindful of what you say in an email, over the telephone, in the workplace or in any public place. Otherwise, you too might have the opportunity to experience Room 101.
-- Posted by FJGuy on Sat, May 3, 2008, at 1:09 PM
ACK! Let's hope you're wrong about Room 101! I can't believe we've reached that point in this country. I don't doubt that there are some Stalinist bureaucrats working in the inner sanctum of the government, but, hopefully, we have enough checks and balances (and rational people) to keep them from taking control.
That's an interesting point about "freedom before speech" and "freedom after speech." I had to read the explanation in order to understand it, but there's a big distinction, isn't there? What's the good of having "freedom of speech," if you're thrown in jail after you speak?!
-- Posted by goat lady on Sun, May 4, 2008, at 8:10 AM
I don't think the government is monitoring my email or telephone calls without a warrant. Sounds like a little bit of scare tactics or political rhetoric to me. If they are monitoring me, I would say there is a reason. They don't have the time, funds or people to monitor all our calls and emails.

|Finally made it up in 2012; a hike I'd been wanting to do since I was last here in '08. Very quick -- up in 54 minutes, and down in 43 minutes -- but still quite a leg-burner. The wind was brutal, and was blasting me from the west. Took my wife up to Scenic Point in the afternoon!

|Good rock?
|I've climbed Divide perhaps ten times in the last five summers. Only recently did I discover that the East side has relatively good rock for technical climbing. Roughly three short pitches with some low angle areas that allow you to traverse and pick your poison. Suprisingly good gear.

|A great climb.

|Just climbed this for the third time in october with my buddy Logan. It's a lot of fun when covered in snow. We spent the night in the shack during a huge blizzard.

|Steep and Deep
Date Climbed: Apr 23, 2011
|Snowshoed in from hwy 89. Going up the shoulder to the ridge was a little tough, and I was surprised by considerable snow and ice on the ridge itself. Went to the lookout and enjoyed the frigid sunshine before deciding that a summit attempt might not be wise solo given the wind and ice and cornices. Never seen such cornices on Divide before. Climbed many many times in the summers, and twice during previous winters. this one was a doozy. Saw Bugwik's tracks going in but I skipped the road and xc'd it and never saw them again on the approach or climb, so he must have gone up the nw face to the ridge.

|Great hike once you're on the ridge
Date Climbed: Aug 14, 2010
|Climbed it on a foggy August day. Took us half an hour just to find the trailhead and couldn't see the mountain at all. Made the summit and the clouds parted on the way down to reveal the spectacular scenery below. Outstanding, and not a tough climb once you get above the muddy trail and onto the ridge.

|Multiple times in 2001.
I had nothing but fun every time I went up here. A sunset climb in particular was especially beautiful.

Date Climbed: Jul 28, 2010
|Awesome views from the parking lot. Easy, interesting route up the ridge and past the abandonded fire lookout to the buggy summit. Summit views include a very vivid example of the mountains abruptly meeting the prairie.
Also climbed on June 19, 2011. Snow complicated the route over the last couple hundred of vertical feet. On the descent, we spotted some friends of ours skinning up the snowy east face - my hiking partner and I met them on the snow and glissaded down on an abundance of slushy snow. Great spring summit.

I work in a very spiritual way as a medium and with the help of my spirit guides can give comfort and gentle guidance where needed. I am very much a believer in the Universal connections of energies and am here as a psychic online to help you in your time of need.
My grandmother was a natural medium who was very much in demand during the blitz in World War Two when she used to help and comfort those who had fled to the underground railway tunnels to escape the bombing. My grandfather was a descendant of the Huron Indians in Canada. It was within this very spiritual background that I grew up. I was always encouraged to explore and talk about my feelings of a spiritual nature. Ten years ago, after much consideration, I gave up my career to concentrate on my psychic reading gifts. I went to the local spiritualist church and soon found myself in demand on the rostrums and platforms of the churches in my area. I have now joined this excellent psychic line so that I can help even more people with my gift as a psychic.
One psychic reading I gave the client arrived after travelling a very long distance and was quite tired. During my attunement to him, I picked up by clairvoyance a very great deal of emotional negativity but curiously a lot of what I felt seemed very familiar even though it was from the client. After the attunement I spoke with the client and after a little while we discovered that we were in fact second cousins! We had not met before and did not know about each other. This was just another proof of what I call the Universal Connection bringing people together!

Boeing, Panasonic Partnership Markets eXConnect to Government Operators
Boeing has a new agreement to begin marketing Panasonic Avionics' satellite-based in-flight broadband service eXConnect to government operators.
Under the agreement, Boeing will market the Ku-band aeronautical network to government customers both within and outside the United States. Panasonic is looking to target government operators who fly Boeing aircraft.
"By combining the strengths of our global Ku-band aeronautical network with Boeing's extensive experience working with secure network customers such as the U.S. government, we will together be able to provide significantly improved service to this important industry," said Paul Margis, president and CEO of Panasonic Avionics.
The exConnect service allows in-flight access to the Internet, and Panasonic's eXTV global television service via a connected seatback device or passengers' personal electronic devices (PEDs).
Paul Geery, vice president of C3 Solutions for Boeing's electronic and information solutions unit said the partnership will market eXConnect as a "competitively priced service," which will also be integrated with "Boeing C4ISR capabilities."
The two companies have not identified specific government customers yet.

Free Falling - Page 2
Lesson #1: Body Positioning
While braking by landing on your heels provides a feeling of control, it strains your joints and slows you down. Advises Max King, 31, of Bend, Oregon, a world-class downhill runner and 2011 World Mountain Running Champion, "Commit to a downhill by leaning into the hill from your ankles. Rather than landing on your heels, place your feet directly under your body and if you have to slow down, take short steps and use the skidding motion of your forefoot to brake."
Taking long, gaping "overstrides" downhill results in post-race quivering quads. In ultra events this body-punishing technique might force you to sacrifice your race altogether. Instead, land with your feet under your hips and maintain an open, relaxed stride; you will run faster, and save your quads. Continues King, "In order to keep your feet underneath you, employ a high turnover rate."
Lesson #2: Gaze and Gravity
When descending, assess the upcoming terrain to choose a good line, one that allows for the least braking or slowing and potential for injury (e.g. spraining an ankle on jagged rocks). Dave Mackey, 41, of San Francisco, the course record-holder at Oakridge, Oregon's Where's Waldo 100K, who is revered by many as the downhill master, says, "Look 10 to 15 feet ahead to pick your line on technical trails, and look even farther ahead on tamer trails and dirt roads so you can focus more on maintaining momentum."
Luke Nelson, 31, a competitive mountain runner in Pocatello, Idaho, and member of the U.S. Ski Mountaineering Team, warns that looking immediately in front of you leads to "decreased response time and poor route decisions."
Lesson #3: Balance
Honing your balance is the glue that holds your downhill technique together. According to orthopedic physical therapist and elite trail ultrarunner, in Bozeman, Montana, 40-year-old Nikki Kimball, good balance on downhills gives you more confidence. "Confidence translates to faster downhill running and less injury risk," she says. "Injuries often occur when runners are scared and put the brakes on suddenly."
Kimball suggests developing both stationary balance, such as holding advanced yoga poses, and dynamic balance, such as moving in and out of yoga poses and BOSU Ball exercises [See Issue 75, November 2011, Beginner's Corner].
And then it all comes down to trusting your body. "If you ask any advanced skier how they shredded a difficult line, most would answer that their movements become unconscious," says Nelson. "As a runner you must learn to trust your trained instincts."
