Shakedown: Treasury now seizing tax refunds from adult children to pay parents' decades-old Social Security debts
posted at 3:21 pm on April 11, 2014 by Allahpundit
When I say "debts," I don't mean loans that the parents willingly sought from SSA. It would be bad enough to hold a kid responsible for that (since when are children responsible for their parents' obligations?), but at least it would have been voluntarily incurred by mom/dad. The "debts" here are overpayments of Social Security benefits, the product of SSA's own errors. The parents who received them might not have even realized they were getting money they weren't supposed to have. And now, somehow, it's junior's problem.
But wait. It gets worse.
When [Mary] Grice was 4, back in 1960, her father died, leaving her mother with five children to raise. Until the kids turned 18, Sadie Grice got survivor benefits from Social Security to help feed and clothe them.
Now, Social Security claims it overpaid someone in the Grice family — it's not sure who — in 1977. After 37 years of silence, four years after Sadie Grice died, the government is coming after her daughter. Why the feds chose to take Mary's money, rather than her surviving siblings', is a mystery…
"It was a shock," said Grice, 58. "What incenses me is the way they went about this. They gave me no notice, they can't prove that I received any overpayment, and they use intimidation tactics, threatening to report this to the credit bureaus."…
Social Security officials told Grice that six people — Grice, her four siblings and her father's first wife, whom she never knew — had received benefits under her father's account. The government doesn't look into exactly who got the overpayment; the policy is to seek compensation from the oldest sibling and work down through the family until the debt is paid.
SSA insists that they did send notice — to a P.O. Box that Grice hasn't owned for 35 years, even though they have her current address.
How can they demand restitution for a mistaken payment made in the late 1970s, let alone from someone who didn't even receive it? Because: The farm bill that passed in 2011 lifted the 10-year statute of limitations on debts owed to the feds. Treasury has collected more than $400 million since then on very old obligations, many of them below the radar of public scrutiny because the amounts are often small enough, i.e. a few hundred dollars, that the targets find it's cheaper to pay up than to fight. It's a shakedown, based on the flawed assumption that a child not only must have benefited from the overpayment to his parent but that he/she received the entirety of the benefit, with little proof offered that the debt even exists. (One man who was forced to pay demanded a receipt from SSA affirming that his balance was now zero. The SSA clerk told him he'd put in the request but that the man shouldn't expect to receive anything.) The only reason you're hearing about Grice's case, I think, is because they went after her for thousands, not hundreds, of dollars, which was enough of a hit to make her get a lawyer. Turns out that the feds had seized and then continued to hold her federal and state refunds, an amount greater than $4,400 — even though they were only demanding $2,996 from her to pay off her father's debt. Lo and behold, once WaPo found out and started asking questions, the $1,400 excess was promptly returned to her. Amazing how fast bureaucracy can move when someone looks behind the curtain.
The whole thing is Kafkaesque — opaque, oppressive, arbitrary, and sinister in its indifference to making sure the right person pays so long as someone does. After reading the story, it's not obvious to me what's stopping Treasury from demanding a payment from every taxpayer whose parents are dead. If the chief witnesses are gone and the feds don't have to prove that a child actually received any benefits from overpayment, the only "check" on this process is SSA's willingness to tell the truth about who owes them money and how much. You trust them, don't you?
Exit question from Karl: Isn't holding children responsible for their parents' retirement debts the governing model of the Democratic Party?

PREP students at CPS Energy presentation
UTSA PREP students learn about electrical safety from CPS Energy
(July 14, 2005)--The UTSA Prefreshman Engineering Program (PREP) hosted a safety presentation by CPS Energy staff members Thursday at the Sombrilla Plaza on the 1604 Campus.
The CPS Energy representatives used a generator that produces 9,000 volts to illustrate the danger of electrical power lines. The demonstration using a miniature power pole and a portion of a chain-link fence showed how electricity from a power line can burn through a tree branch and a fence.
Today's headlines
- La Prensa Foundation is newest member of UTSA Lone Star Society
- UTSA alumna Jordan Kaufmann wins $50K for new stent-graft start-up
- UTSA begins new way-finding sign installation this summer at Main Campus
- USA Today: UTSA long jumper Tyler Williamson rescues three-year-old boy

The students were shown safety equipment used by CPS Energy and were warned to leave the handling of power lines to professionals.
PREP is an eight-week summer program for middle and high school students which stresses the development of abstract reasoning and problem-solving skills through a series of hands-on math, physics, computer science, logic, technical writing and engineering courses. PREP officials estimate they will serve 1,400 students in 2005.
Program sessions this summer are at eight partner colleges and university campuses throughout San Antonio.

Year-round service
Visitors never have trouble finding things to do in Honolulu, located on the island of Oahu. With countless options for families, couples and singles alike, you're sure to love your trip to this incredible destination – no matter how you choose to spend your time.
The beaches offer an abundance of activities—from watching wild sea turtles and snorkelling, to kiteboarding, boogie boarding, kayaking and more. Exploring inland, you'll find plenty of golf courses, jungle adventures, museums, art galleries, botanical gardens and live performances to fill your vacation to the brim.
Honolulu is the capital of Hawaii and offers all the perks of a sleek metropolis with a dose of outback adventure. Downtown, you'll find historic sites, luxury shopping and an incredible dining scene. But a mere 10 minutes outside of Honolulu's bustling core, the wilderness begins. Hike along Nuuanu Stream to Kapena Falls, underneath towering banyan and African tulip trees. Then, stop for a swim at the base of a magnificent cliff.
There are two almost parallel volcanic ranges on Oahu: Waianae in the northwest and Koolau in the southeast. The northeast trade winds cool the Koolau mountain air, creating a rainy mist that keeps the forests lush and green. In the valley below, you can see the outline of millions of pineapples growing in the area's rich, red volcanic soil.
Some 125 beaches loop around Oahu like a Hawaiian lei, but the best place for people watching is on the sands of Waikiki. Looking for some quiet relaxation? Head outside the city, where the closest thing to noise is the song of the white-rumped Shama bird.
Honolulu is a fantastic destination for:
- shopping & dining
- culture & history
- beaches

Troubleshooting ReWire issues
- Live Versions: 9
- Operating System: All
If you wish to use Live as a ReWire slave, first launch the application which is going to be the ReWire Master. For instructions on how to use ReWire with the most common DAWs, please refer to our main ReWire article.
Should you have issues ReWiring Live and another application, please continue reading below to find out how to solve the issue.
Live fails to start as a ReWire Slave
- The most common reason for Live failing to start in ReWire Slave mode would be that Host and Slave are not running at the same bit depth.
ReWire will only work if both audio applications run either in 32-bit or 64-bit.
- A second reason for this behavior might be that Live has not yet run as standalone once, which is required in order to install its own ReWire engine.
Launching Live as standalone is required also each time you switch between different Live versions (between 32-bit and 64-bit, or between Live 8 and Live 9 for example).
Close the ReWire Host (Master) and restart Live. Once the application has started, you can close it again and launch the ReWire Master. At this point, launching Live next should have the application start as ReWire Slave.
- The third reason for Live not launching as a ReWire Slave would be that the Host requires you to activate the ReWire engine before launching the Slave application. This would be the case for Cubase, Logic X, Reaper and Pro Tools.
Note: For Windows users, both the ReWire Master and Slave may need to be run in administrator mode to successfully ReWire. To launch a program as Administrator, please see this guide.
For Mac users, Live may also request admin privileges when first trying to configure the ReWire engine, as access to the system configuration is temporarily required. Simply enter in the admin password to overcome this step when Live asks you to do so.
Using Live as ReWire Master
In Live, no action needs to be taken to enable ReWire: just launch Live and then the audio application you wish to use as ReWire Slave, and this should automatically ReWire itself to Live.
If this does not work, we recommend referring to your ReWire Slave application manual to further troubleshoot the issue.
Further information
For ReWire problems with Live 8 on OS X Mavericks, please make sure to be running Live 8.4.2 or above. The latest installer of Live can be downloaded from your Ableton User Account.
For more information on specific ReWire related issues, please click on the ReWire tag here below to list all the available sources from the Ableton Help page.

And it isn't. Science is about keeping an open mind. People that work in the scientific community every day like myself, know this. Once you make your mind up about something, you are useless in scientific inquiry. Once you trim the facts to fit your theory, your reputation as a scientist is shot.
One of the things we do on a weekly basis is to read a recent paper in our field and try to find all the faults with it. It is customary to try to shoot holes in a scientific hypothesis. We do this to each other and to our own theories. If the theory holds up under fire, it's a good one. If it doesn't it either needs to be revised or pitched out.
There was a theory that neonicotinoids were causing colony collapse in Europe. A lot of beekeepers wanted that theory proved! But the facts wouldn't fit into the theory. Sure, neonics caused some bee die offs, but they didn't cause most die offs. Turned out, the hives were all in pretty bad shape due to varroa mites, and were full of miticide residues.
You wrote:Of course it's based on my perception. What else do I have to use? We are all blessed with perception and thought. I perceive people criticizing scientists for being close minded and I think, that's not true. It's just the opposite. That's what I think. I don't know why others think differently. That's what we are trying to find out.comments like the above, based on YOUR perception

Bend town hall gets heated over U.S. budget
Rep. Greg Walden holds first day of meetings
BEND, Ore. - Rep. Greg Walden, R-Ore., was in Bend Thursday night as part of a nine-day tour of Central and Eastern Oregon. He is making stops for several town hall meetings -- and there's plenty to talk about with his constituents.
About 200 people filled the Bend Senior Center for the town hall, at which Walden was asked about everything from the budget from Benghazi. Afterward, he said even though the discussion was heated at times, it was good to hear what his district wants answers to.
"We need to find a common ground to solve our countries problems, get the economy going again and deal with the debt and deficit issues that rack up the bills for the next generation," Walden said.
The congressman says he has been able to take ideas that he hears at these town halls back to Congress, one of which is the "No budget, No Pay," provision that was added to the recent debt ceiling bill.
"Well, guess what?" said Walden, "I took that one back -- this one has been kicked around before. That ended up in our law that just passed in the House: no budget, no pay for members of Congress until they pass a budget."
Indeed, one of the most contentious points of the Bend town hall was the U.S. budget (or more precisely, a lack of one, not passed for several years). Many people were pointing the finger at the other side and others just wanting a solution to the problem.
The congressman said that's why he pushed the No Budget, No Pay provision.
"In the private sector, in small business, like I was in, if you don't do a budget, you know, you shouldn't get paid," he said. "And I think that's what Americans are screaming at the hilltops: Congress needs to do its job."
Walden will continue his visit to Central Oregon tomorrow in Redmond and Sisters.
He also held a town hall Thursday afternoon in Prineville and concludes his visit with another on Saturday at the Madras Senior Center from 8:30-9:30 a.m.

A special structure in organic chemistry containing single carbon bonded ring(s); cyclic alkanes. A way to imagine a cyclic alkane is to take a simple alkane chain, CH3(CH2)nCH3, and have the two terminal methyl groups meet, bending the chain, creating a ring. The shape of ring is completely dependent on the number of carbon atoms the ring contains. Example: cyclopropane (three carbons, therefore three vertices) is a triangle. Cyclohexane (6) would be a hexagon (on a plane, in space however the joints are kinked).

Food Storage
Keeping lunches and snacks fresh and delicious is easy with food storage options tailored just for teens. From paisley-patterned water bottles to multifaceted bento boxes, PBteen combines flair with function to provide food containers that meet multiple needs. For a crisp autumn afternoon, fill a thermal soup container with your favorite minestrone or chowder. These stainless-steel keepers have a silicone ring lining within the cap to prevent spills and keep foods hot or cold. Stay hydrated on the go with a matching water bottle in various colors and patterns including polka dots and stripes from our Northfield Collection. This collection also offers matching lunch bags, duffles and even locker decor for a coordinated look throughout the school day.
Our durable lunch containers are designed to fit perfectly into our dual compartment lunch bags. Each bento box offers two to five compartments for keeping salads separate from sandwiches or cookies from mixing with carrots. Choose from an assortment of lunch containers that includes stainless steel and transparent materials as well. All of our lunch containers and their accompanying utensils are dishwasher-safe.
For college students outfitting a dorm room, a fridge will always come in handy for holding juices, sodas and snacks. The exterior comes in an assortment of colors to suit your tastes. Some of our bookcases are designed specially to house a mini fridge as well as provide plenty of nooks around your study space for staying organized. A smaller refrigerated food storage option is a retro cooler, which keeps your beverages and snacks just as chilled but is very portable, sitting nicely on your desktop, bookshelf or any spot near a wall outlet.
For those late night study sessions, have a bite to eat at a lapdesk. Our Superstudy lapdesks offer a hard work surface on a soft base that conforms to your lap for comfortable snacking and studying alike. As a more versatile alternative, our Superstorage lapdesks feature a sliding wooden top that reveals spacious compartments within for housing flashcards, pens and pencils, an electronic tablet and other needed study materials on hand. Each lapdesk also has a carrying handle so you can take it with you to study with a friend or at the library. Lapdesks can also be personalized on the study surface with your initials or name, written in a variety of font choices and colors depending on your tastes.
For high school teens, keeping a locker organized is much less of a challenge when incorporating accessories like a durable locker shelf that fits neatly into the bottom of the locker and provides an added space to keep food storage items off the floor. These smart shelf solutions are made of strong iron to stand up to the weight of books and backpacks. Further personalize your locker with magnetic wallpaper, a matching locker rug and an accompanying picture frame and decal set. For practicality, adding a mirror, a few pocket organizers and a dry erase reminder board can make a stop at the locker a mini oasis amid an otherwise hectic day.
To round out a student's collection of essential gear, look at our collection of backpacks, lunch totes and pencil cases. A hot/cold container fits nicely into a streamlined lunch tote with enough room for a utensil set, napkin and snack. Find a matching backpack for coordination in a wide assortment of patterns and colors, from pups to palm trees and tie-dye to tire treads. Each are made of durable water-resistant polyester that not only protects its contents but also makes for easy cleaning. Similarly, matching pencil cases keep supplies protected and organized. These handy keepers have a large zipper opening in the top, and many include a handle for attaching to your backpack or for simply carrying around.

According to Giants 101 on FB.
According to Giants 101 on FB.
i hope they sign him
Never argue with an idiot. They will only bring you down to their level and beat you with experience. MB Rule # 1
I see that one overrated and retired coach ultimately resulting in failure wasn't enough. Anyway, this probably won't happen unless Bruce Allen steps aside.
I'd be shocked if Cowher took the job w/ the Skins. He wouldn't put up with Snyder anymore than he would put up with Jerry Jones.
The report is actually that they haven't met….
I actually wanted Cowher as T.C.'s replacement when he decided to leave. People say he's been gone too long, but Vermeil was gone way longer and he came back to win a SB. People say he's old, yet guys like our coach, Carroll, and Belichick are older. The last excuse is well in 15 years he only won 1 SB. Well what did Coughlin win before coming here as a HC? What did Belichick win as a HC prior to NE? Cowher won w/ guys leaving via free agency. His teams were consistently in the postseason and they never showed lack of effort. Players like him and he's tough. Plus he went to 2 SBs and Tomlin took his star players to another 2 SBs w/ Cowher's DC as well. Anyone who says he is overrated is crazy and I would not WANT another NFC East team to grab him, so we have to play against him twice a year. We already struggled the last 2 years in a crappy division. The guy also likes Giants syle football. Pound the rock and defense. If the rumor is true that he wants our job when it's open I also think his ties w/ the Rooney family helps.

Vietnamese immigrant shares hopes, worries
Romney supporter's family is split, like nation
BEND, Ore. - It's clear our country is divided in many respects after the presidential election.
But one Bend citizen, a Vietnam native, is offering his own perspective on his first chance to vote for president. He says he's lived through socialism and that he's worried the U.S. could be leaning toward that philosophy.
John Le came to America eight years ago.
For three of those, he's been a proud U.S. citizen, excited to be here and honored to vote in his first election where he finally has a choice.
Le says in Vietnam, a socialist-communist country, there was only ever one candidate, who you were intimidated into voting for.
But now, he's worried for us.
"We (fled) from a communist country, where I see socialism. We want freedom -- freedom or die," Le said Wednesday.
It's an American virtue John Le would shout from the hilltops of his native Vietnam if he could.
"Every time I come back to my country, I have to spread freedom," Le said passionately. "I speak it with any kind of people -- even with students or the Communist party, I still talk about it.
"Sometimes they get mad at me. They want to take me to the prison, and I say go ahead, handcuff me and take me to prison, and they say no, we can't do that, you're a U.S. citizen."
The Bend nail technician learns as much about American politics and democracy as he can get his hands on.
In this first presidential election as a U.S. citizen, he voted for Republican Mitt Romney. But his daughter and her mother in California voted for President Obama.
So he says just like the rest of the country, even his family is divided.
Because he has such a different perspective, we asked him if he sees the American government seeming to be getting more powerful. Le responded by saying, "Yeah, I think so, I think so. They look like they want to control everything."
The president's proposal of taxing the very rich more to help the country, Le says, could start us down a dangerous path.
Communist Vietnam started taking property and money from the rich, to help the poor, he says.
But as the government grew stronger, Le says it kept the money, and the poor stayed that way.
He says he liked Romney's economic views, and that we should not be influenced against the rich.
"Until now, I'm poor. I only make $1,000-1,200 per month, but I still love the rich. Because if they open more businesses, then we have a chance to work with them, and maybe then we have a chance to open a business like them."
In Le's view, it's been a road of heartache in extreme socialist countries like Vietnam.
Too much prosperity can put you in prison, or killed.
It happened to Le's grandfather, a farmer.
"In 1954, my granddad and grandmom, they (were) working very, very hard to make money. After they make money, they have a little property, and the Communists took over to the North, and they took his property, and they killed him and chopped off his head."
Not believing it would ever reach those extremes here, Le says he wants Americans to know how lucky we are to be a capitalist country.
He's glad that every four years, we have a clean slate to vote again.
"American history is only about 230 years already, so I believe America is getting stronger and stronger-- whoever runs the country."

Where I stayed
Niah National Park
The next day, we decided to do a little hiking down a different trail first. This would take us to a summit and a near by town where we could have lunch and find some beer (Brian and Andy, our travel companion, were quite desperate for a pint). Then we could head into the caves in the afternoon.
The walk turned out to be a bit more difficult than intended. We left the board walk and went
without walking back. Hopefully no one else tries that path for awhile!
Then we were finally off to the caves – the whole reason we came here in the first place! The great cave was immense with many branches off of it. Everywhere we walked the cavern ceiling was so high above us - it might as well been that of a stadium. Some people get claustrophobia when walking through caves, but we had a bit of the opposite feeling...With that amount of open space inside, I mean, what's holding up the mountain? Took the walk through the cave across the slippery guano covered steps looking around at the enormous formations and trying to peek at some of the 250 000 bats that failed to make an appearance last night. We could also see the bamboo poles that people climb to harvest the tasty bird's nests.
As staggering as this cave system was, it was not my most favourite cave. This might have
and poking around in corners. It was interesting to see the harvesting of nests and guano as well as much of the archaeological evidence that's been found here.
On our way out, who should we meet, but the students again! More photos and a pleasant walk back to the park headquarters. The boys got their cold beer after a long walk, so everyone was happy!

Celebrated redistributionists discover healthy respect for private property
posted at 9:25 am on October 18, 2011 by Ed Morrissey
The lesson in this story, besides that irony is often delicious? Redistributionism always looks better when you don't own anything yourself (via JWF):
Occupy Wall Street protesters said yesterday that packs of brazen crooks within their ranks have been robbing their fellow demonstrators blind, making off with pricey cameras, phones and laptops — and even a hefty bundle of donated cash and food.
"Stealing is our biggest problem at the moment," said Nan Terrie, 18, a kitchen and legal-team volunteer from Fort Lauderdale.
"I had my Mac stolen — that was like $5,500. Every night, something else is gone. Last night, our entire [kitchen] budget for the day was stolen, so the first thing I had to do was . . . get the message out to our supporters that we needed food!"
Crafty cat burglars sneaked into the makeshift kitchen at Zuccotti Park overnight and swiped as much as $2,500 in donated greenbacks from right under the noses of volunteers who'd fallen asleep after a long day whipping up meals for the hundreds of hungry protesters, the volunteers said.
Who'd have thought that a crowd of people demanding the seizure of wealth from banks, corporations, and the wealthy might also have a few thieves? I'm shocked, shocked to find theft occurring in a group that has hijacked private property it refuses to leave. I can't imagine that a crowd that demands free higher education and the forgiveness of tens of thousands in student debt would also think of someone's Mac or an iPhone as equally as communal as a college education.
The best part of this story is that it sounds like the thieves might be creating a few proto-conservatives:
Security volunteer Harry Wyman, 22, of Brooklyn was furious about the thievery — and vowed to get tough with the predatory perps.
"I'm not getting paid, but I'm not gonna stand for it. Why people got to come here and do stupid stuff? All it does is make people not wanna come here anymore," Wyman fumed.
Law and order! Get tough on crime! Defend private property! Hey, maybe there isn't that much difference between this and a Tea Party after all — just a few years of experience and a couple of eye-opening insights on freeloaders. In my column for The Week, I take a more serious look at the similarities between the two movements, and explain why the Occupiers are heading into an intellectual and political dead end:
So far, the Occupy protests have mainly drawn the usual suspects — anarchists and ideologues who spend their lives attempting to provoke responses from police and gain media attention. Some of the same organizations — unions, AGJ — have agitated at World Trade Organizations and G-8 summits, most notably in Seattle in 1999. In St. Paul, Minn., I saw the same kind of activists form into the umbrella RNC Welcoming Committee and organize violent protests at the Republican National Convention. But could this turn into something more?
It's not out of the question. Those protests took place during periods of prosperity — in the latter case, before the recession became a collapse — and remained fringe affairs. That is certainly not the case any longer with Occupy, which is why targeting Wall Street will hit more of a resonant chord. The pressure of a chronic economic malaise means that we have millions of people who had been gainfully employed a few years ago who now find themselves outside of the economic system, with no stake in the status quo. They might find themselves agreeing with either movement — and on the streets demanding change of some sort. Right now, the attention is on Occupy, and that may draw a significant number of angry people who wouldn't normally sympathize with hard-Left groups like AGJ or consider joining a union unless forced to do so.
However, the emphasis on Wall Street rather than Washington as the focus of anger and blame puts Occupy into an intellectual paradox that will likely limit its impact. Certainly Wall Street bears its share of responsibility for creating toxic derivatives that nearly killed the financial sector. But the derivatives failed because the securities on which they were based – congressionally-approved Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac securities – turned out to be junk bonds. The current issues of spending and debt originate in Congress, where the Democrats who replaced Republicans in 2006 promising fiscal responsibility turned out worse than their GOP predecessorts, ballooning deficits to well past a trillion dollars a year.
In this the Tea Party has a coherent ideology that opposes government interventions in private markets and runaway spending and debt: They want a smaller government. Occupy protests many of the same problems, but in response to these issues, the Occupy movement wants a bigger federal government that would punish banks and wealthy Americans. They apparently want seizures and redistribution, which necessarily means more bureaucracies, higher spending, and many more opportunities for collusion between authorities and monied interests in one way or another.
Right now, they're also in the process of learning some hard truths about human nature, and why a fairly regulated free-market system works best to allow a channel for the natural self-interest of individuals to put capital to work and create wealth.
Update: Is there any such thing as a $5,500 Mac laptop? I built my own MacBook Pro with every option on the laptop itself at the Apple store, and only came up with a price of $3,447. I could also choose 6 or 12 month financing, but that would just put me in debt to the corporations, dude. It looks like Nan's mommy and daddy bought the Mac and Nan doesn't have a clue about its value.

I raved about that guy for months before the draft, and even i coulden't see him becoming this studly so fast! WOW!
I raved about that guy for months before the draft, and even i coulden't see him becoming this studly so fast! WOW!
This weekend belonged to Kenjon Barner and Doug Martin.. Seriously, i don't remember seeing 2backs do what they did on the big stage(not talking some weak pathetic college team giving up a ridiculous game) in quite some time..
Barner- 38carry 321yrd 5td 2catch 26yrd
D.Martin- 25carry 251yrd 4td 4catch 21yrd Freaking insane!!!! Martin did that coming off a 29carry 135yrd 1td 3catch 79yrd 1td game!!
Complete package! It makes me sick we were so close to getting doug martin! Could u imagine having that guy in our backfield with Cruz and Nicks on the outside? I am in awe of that guy! Seriously, i compared to Ray Rice and MJD , but this kid is doing things that make them look a step below.. I told everyone that Martin was the type of back that was gonna handle a full workload and could break big runs just as good as anyone regardless of the speed.. Another words, he had enough speed where if he got into the open he simply wasen't getting caught... To go with that strong build, hands...etc
I'm sorry, i just get really excited when guys do stuff like Barner and Martin.. And coming on a weekend when the giants lost a game they should of won, i need something!!!lol
man I wish we had an exciting running game....
I just didnt think the value differences people were assigning between the RBs(other that TR who was clearly the #1) was very accurate. I still think that holds true. Martin was the most NFL ready for sure, but he is also a lot older than some of the other guys. Martin also went to a team with an offense that needs a primary guy.
Martin has also yet to perform vs a good defense. He has had some very good games vs some very bad defenses tho, that is for sure.
Call me crazy but i sill think down the road guys like Lamar Miller , Wilson and even Lamichael James will become good players to go with the Martins, Richardsons and Alfred Morrises who are already lighting it up. They just havent gotten their chances yet.
Last edited by BlueSanta; 11-05-2012 at 08:54 PM.
I also think , not to take anything away from barner, that Oregon's offense is a marvel to watch. I love me some defense, but if I could choose to watch any offense week in and week out for a lifetime, it would be a Chip Kelly offense.
I'm with you, on the fact the RB class was awesome, as i said the same thing over and over, but Doug Martin in my opinon, was clearly the number 2 guy in that class, and u simply can't keep talent like that on the bench, as it just shows through during practice or in pre season or in games before long.. Its why guys like AP, Barry Sanders, Emmitt Smith, Ray Rice, MJD, thurman thomas, and now Doug Martin all had big success either in YR 1 or YR 2.. It certainly started in YR 1 for all of em though.. None of em had any total measly numbers in there first yr by any stretch.. Doug Martin will certainly have probably the best stats outta anyone of em after there first yr though, thats for sure.. Obviously, hes got a long way to go, but that speaks some volume.. Not to mention hes doing it on a team who needed to fire there coach after last yr and had a measly offense before he came along..
Shoot, without Doug Martin, those guys aren't winning cr-ap for games at this point.. Hes helping Josh Freeman out so much its not even funny!
I freaking love em!!!lol I sure wish he was balling on our team!
Time for the WEEKLY Mock.. Unfortunetly we lost this past week, in a game we certainly should of won.. Either way our Run defense was grossly bad and we need to get a stud at LB in my opinion in the first few rds.. I got us picking 29th after the loss.. Anyways, here we go..
RD1.. Eric Reid S L.S.U- KP will probably be gone,a nd we just don't know how long Brown can keep up his great play, and even if he does, depth is a issue. Reid is a enforcer out there with sky is the limit potential.. I think if hes on the board this late, hes well worth the risk..
RD2.. Michael Mauti ILB Penn St- One of my fave players in the country, the kid would fit our defense like a glove, and plays with a tenacity on defense and never takes plays off.. Herzlich was a liability this past week, and outside of splash plays, Blackburn has also been a liability of sorts.. We need a young stud at ILB for the future..
RD3.. Jordan Hill DT Penn St- Not super heavy by any stretch, Jordan Hill can rush the passer and make plays behind the line.. He seems like a perfect fit side by side with Linval Joseph.. I really like the Penn st defense this yr, and Mauti and Hill kinda lead the group.. So i don't mind double dipping from there in RDs 2and3..
RD4.. Brian Winters OT Kent St- Kinda under the radar T prospect from small school Kent St.. Reminds me of T.J Lang from a few yrs ago.. Winters could give Brewer nice comp going forward for RT positon and maybe eventually take over for Snee when the time comes at G..
RD5.. Jake Stoneburner TE Ohio St- I spoke about him in last weeks mock.. I like his upside and pass catching ability. I think he could become a nice safety valve for ELI and possibly a future starter for us.. Could use a few more lb's, but has the frame for it, i believe..
RD6.. Knile Davis RB Arkansas- Simply a value pick.. Dude was perdicted to go in RD 1 as of last yr, and injury occured and hasen't performed as expected this yr, and stock has plummeted.. If hes on the board this late, i could see Reese rolling the dice on the burly RB.. He'd complement David Wilson and Andre Brown nicely going forward, and if were to lose Andre Brown, Wilson and Davis could form a nice duo going forward.. Either way, another RD isn't a bad idea, if the value is there.
RD7... Braxston Cave C N.Dame- This kid is a qualtiy center.. Notre Dame is running the ball fantastically this season and Cave is one reason why.. Hes got a solid NFL frame and if we think Baas is to pricey to keep going forward, we could add a c to challenge Cordle down the line..
I am not yet sold on Mauti either. I think he is a very good college player but am not sold yet on his game translating to the NFL. This is a guy who has had 2 ACL surgeries and while I think he is plenty insinctive, I want to see him move around and make plays vs a good team.
I do like the later half of your picks though.
I just find it funny that fan's believe everything that Reese tells them. They don't bother to look at the college games, watch a couple of highlights with music. Nothing against Wilson, but to say he was number one on the giants board over martin is just stupid.

Believe it or Not?
Advertisements can tell consumers about prices and other information that may help them in the decisions they make about what to buy. But students also should know that ads are slanted by sellers to show a product in the best light. This lesson reveals to students how advertisers use words and images to make goods and services look their best. To protect consumers and make sure that competition among sellers is fair in the marketplace, the federal government requires that factual claims in ads be backed up with proof. Still, it is usually okay for sellers to talk only about the positives and ignore the negatives of what they are selling. Another common trick is to use exaggerated claims called "puffery." It is up to the consumers to separate factual claims from opinions and exaggerations. This lesson challenges students to create a set of tips that could help consumers to make this distinction. Being able to tell the difference between factual claims and puffery or opinions can help consumers to make smart choices and avoid market disappointments.
Advertising, Competition, Decision Making, Maintaining Competition, Markets, Regulation, Role of Government
- Explain the role of advertising from the seller's point of view.
- Distinguish between fact and opinion in advertisements.
- View advertisements with a healthy skepticism.
Hold up a popular fiction book that your students probably have read--perhaps one of the Harry Potter novels. Ask the students:
- Is this story fiction or non-fiction? [Fiction]
- How can you tell? [A possible response is that students know from real-life experiences that some of the events in the story can't be true.]
- Is the picture on the cover of the book fiction or non-fiction? [Fiction]
- How do you know? [Students might point out that the cover image is a drawing, not a photo or they may simply know that the characters depicted on the cover do not exist.]
[NOTE: If necessary, explain that works of non-fiction are intended to give a true account of something while works of fiction are not intended to tell the literal truth. Fiction comes from someone's imagination.]
Explain that advertising, like books, contains words and images. Some of the words and images in advertising may be true, while others are fiction.
Interactive Activity: This interactive quiz helps students to better understand the difference between factual claims and opinion.

Self Regulatory Programs for Children's Advertising: This article provides regulations on advertisements made to children under the age of 12.
Activity 1: Fact or Opinion?
The students are told that sellers make a variety of claims in advertisements; some claims are factual and some are statements of opinion. Factual claims are statements that can be proven true or false. The following statements are provided as examples of factual claims.
- The bike has three gears.
- The bike is available in red or blue.
- The price of the bike is $90.00.
Opinions are statements based on a belief or value. For example:
- The bike is better than bikes made by other companies.
- The bike is easier to ride.
- The bike is more fun to ride than other bikes.
The difference between fact and opinion is explained. The students are then asked to read 10 advertising claims and tell whether each asserts a factual claim or an opinion.
At the conclusion of the activity, the students are asked these questions and told to be ready to discuss their answers.
- Which do you think are more useful to consumers—facts or opinions? Why?
- All the facts and opinions focused on the good qualities of the good or service. What do you think is the reason for this?
Activity 2: Packages Are Advertising, Too!
The students learn that packaging is a form of advertising. Packages are designed to catch our attention as we walk down store aisles. They are a seller's last chance to convince us to buy a particular product rather than the one next to it.
The students complete the interactive activity What's in the Shopping Bag? They learn how advertisers use words and images on packages to make their products seem great.
Assessment is based on the three pieces of advice the students offer to help people avoid being misled by advertising.
- Write down three pieces of advice that you would give others so that they are not misled by advertising claims and images. [Some possible answers of advice you could give to others so they aren't misled is: look for factual claims that can be proven true, beware of opinions, read the fine print, read food labels, just because something is shown on a package doesn't mean it is inside, and ads sometimes promise more than they can deliver.]
Consider consolidating the students' tips into a class tip sheet that the students could use in their own efforts to separate fact from opinion and exaggeration in advertising.
Discuss student responses to the THINK ABOUT IT questions in Activity 1.
- Which do you think are more useful to consumers—facts or opinions? Why? [A factual claim makes a statement that is true for everyone while opinions may only apply to the person who makes the statement.]
- All the facts and opinions focused on the good qualities of the good or service. What do you think is the reason for this? [Sellers want to make what they are selling look good so that consumers will buy. Negative images and statements rarely encourage consumers to buy--except perhaps indirectly by saying something negative about a competitor.]
Locate an ad in a magazine and read each sentence. If the sentence states a fact, put an F beside it. If the sentence states an opinion, put an O beside it.
Visit Food Advertising Trick
s to find out how food stylists make burgers, chicken and ice cream look so great in ads. The interactive activity is part of Don't Buy It: Be Media Smart
Web site created by the Corporation for Public Broadcasting.
- Watch for advertisements that seem to promise more than they can deliver. If you prefer, pre-record a few ads with questionable claims and images. For younger students, ads promoting action figures, racing cars and dolls are among those most likely to include questionable claims. Older students will probably be more interested in promotions for clothing, cars, music, etc.
[TEACHER BACKGROUND: The major responsibility for government regulation of advertising rests with the Federal Trade Commission (FTC). FTC rules permit a practice known in the trade as "puffery." Puffing is exaggerating the features, qualities or benefits of a product by claiming that it is "the best" or "the greatest." However, the FTC also requires advertisers to make available to consumers the data on which all factual claims are made. If a business cannot provide such proof, the FTC may find the advertisement misleading and the advertiser guilty of deception. The FTC has the power to fine the sponsor, stop the ad and order the sponsor to issue corrections. Complaints should be sent to the Federal Trade Commission, Consumer Response Center, 600 Pennsylvania Ave., NW, Washington, DC 20580. Toll-Free: 1-877-FTC-HELP. Web: Federal Trade Commission .
Recognizing that false advertising can harm businesses as well as consumers, advertisers have imposed voluntary standards upon themselves. In 1971 several advertising organizations joined forces with the Council of Better Business Bureaus to establish a procedure to focus on complaints about advertising. These complaints are examined by the National Advertising Review Council. The Council consists of representatives of advertisers, advertising agencies and the general public. In 1974, the same organizations created the Children's Advertising Review Unit (CARU) to promote responsible children's advertising. Generally, CARU reviews advertising directed to children under 12 years of age. Guidelines for children's advertising are posted on CARU's Web site in an article named Self Regulatory Programs for Children's Advertising . Complaints concerning children's advertising should be sent to the Children's Advertising Review Unit, Council of Better Business Bureaus, Inc., 70 West 36th Street, New York, NY 10018.]
"We are reviewing this lesson in a group as part of a college class, as we are studying to become teachers. We felt this lesson was an excellent way to get attention for the topic. We especially liked the websites, but we felt that it could be included on how exactly the teacher is expecting to use these websites - as groups? As a class? Individually? To expand this to outside of the classroom, you could have students bring some advertisements. This requires that they are being mindful of what you have taught them and will hopefully incorporate this into their everyday lives. Overall, however, a great lesson. We felt that this will be a relevant topic for years to come and hope the website stays current."
"I liked this lesson a lot and I am sure my 6th grade students will like the PBS interactive sights. They need to be able to recognize fallacies. Also, this meets a PASS objective for my state. Thanks!"
"A great way to use the website would be if you had a smartboard and to look at it as a class."
"I really like this lesson because I believe that it will help my 3rd grade students become more discerning consumers. I use print ads to teach inferencing skills, so this lesson will go along with it beautifully. I also like the links."
"A boring subject but the materials here make it so interesting!"
"Another great approach to teaching advertising. I would suggest some ice cream taste testing and comparing brands and maybe even some blindfolds. Food motivates!"
"I am using this lesson in my Consumer Economics class; I think it is great. It has wonderful resources. I have used the PBS site before and my students really enjoy it. Advertising is a very important concept that students need to understand, especially the fact that some advertising is not true."
Review from EconEdReviews.org
"Believe It or Not? - This lesson was fun and interesting to teach. However, it was necessary to have computers available for each student. The lesson had great links to quizzes and information on the Internet, which worked best if students had their own computers. The students found the activities to be entertaining because of the interactive websites and quizzes on clothing, food and toys listed in the lesson. The concept of how companies prepared their products for advertising were eye opening, and the students were amazed by the means in which items were prepared. Students enjoyed finding out new information and were amused by the sites. The facts and quizzes on each of the sites kept the interest of all the students in my class. Activity 1: Fact or Opinion? – This activity was wonderful because of the statements used and the ten question online quiz. The results of the quiz could easily be used to check for understanding of fact and opinion. Activity 2: Packages are Advertising, Too! – This activity allowed the students to complete questions online about what the advertisements were really advertising. After each question is answered, an explanation was given to the students about each of the ads. The Assessment Activity and Extension Activity were very easy for the students to complete. The students loved learning about how tricks are used to advertise food. I highly recommend this lesson for students and teachers. It was well written and engaged the learners throughout all of the activities. "

text: Hi Everyone; New to beekeeping this past summer. This is my first winter and I am noticing more and more dead bees.......... LOTS OF DEAD BEES I should be saying. I can see if they are cleaning out the drones, etc. but I have about 2 to 3 plus cups of bees in a pile outside the front door of each hive. I must say it has been interesting start...... 6 colonies in the spring. 2 swarms that I know of and had a great time setting them back up in their own new colonies. Had to consolitate some prior to winter just because one swarm was in September and where we are winter comes early. Thank god for utube and Beesource.com/forums for the education. But really don't know much about all the dead bees. I feed them lots of 2:1 sugar water for about a month and then a candy board on each before I wrapped them in the winter cozys. Yes they have ventilation on the top. New Brunswick Canada.... North/East of Maine is where I am located. Weather today is nice at 15 F. Any help or suggestions would greatly be appreciated. Happy holidays from Atlantic Canada. Richard.

Pffffft! Tom is not a "bad guy". He is just a "victim". Hopefully David Miscarriage will loosen his lip lock on Tom's nuts, although that psychopath "David" shows no signs of retreat from his homophobic yet sperm-licking tendency… . Worse than Hubbard that fukhed DM is…. coup master.

Katie Holmes well done!! you have saved your daughter from a freak. Lets hope Tom does not get any sort of custody and let him feel the pain poor Nicole went and is still obviously going through.. Karma is a wonderful thing. Children do need both parents, but he has proved he thinks otherwise. What a nasty man he is, hold on tight Katie we are with you all the way
Posted at 11:50 AM on July 6, 2012
If Katie refuses to be a member of the 'church' of scientology, she will be declared an SP (suppressive person), excommunicated from the church and members will be ordered to have no communication with her.
This is how Nicole Kidman lost her two kids. She waited too long and the kids chose Tom and scientology. As a result they had nothing to do with their SP mother.
Posted at 12:02 AM on July 11, 2012
Monique: Alway's wondered why Nicole K. was never w/her kids in public & moved away from CA. She stated it was to keep them private. Yet, they were photographed openly w/Tom & Katie who they called "mom". You've made a good point about Scientology interference. . Although, just read in a blog (never accurate) that her daughter & she have recently reconnected. The kids did not call her "mom", but "Nicole". Wonder how Tom got them away from Nicole in their divorce w/o a fight from Nicole? Good for Katie much good luck!
Posted at 7:37 AM on July 6, 2012
Katie betrayed Tom ,couldn't wait another week for his special 50th birthday.I hope one day Suri betrays her leaves are like this.We love Tom Cruise Hollywood darling ,stop bringing relegion in divorce ,very sad to see this all.Tom is father and they should have joint custody.I knew from begining Katie is only marrying for name and fame otherwise she is just boring ,fishy thankless who betrayed Tom and left him like this.Suri loves her dad and one day she will leave Katie and will go to her dada only.

You must be one of those ridiculous brainwashed Scientologists. Why should she have waited any longer to get away from that controlling twit? Who gives a crap if it was his birthday or not.

I hope Katie would have the sole custody of Suri!! She must not be raised in Scientology Religion..Oh my GOD….before its too late let SURI grow and live a believer of GOD..JESUS…and all things about Christianity not Scientology..I'll be praying for the success of Katie regarding pulling out SURI of any Scientology activity…

A topic, phrase or word that emotionally sets someone off. Could refer to anger, or reliving a traumatic experience. Sometimes this is logical, other times it seems like an attention grab. It is fairly common for certain communities on, for example, Livejournal to be overly sensitive to people's 'triggers' (often but not always relating to sexual assault)--any mention of violence may be censored.
(1) Man, I know I shouldn't have gone off on Eric that way, but that racist joke he made triggered me big time and I flipped my shit.
(2) I got kicked off that livejournal group for not lj-cutting my post talking about the rape scene in the movie I watched last night. Some girl said it triggered her and the mods were on her side.

A strong emotional reaction set off by a set of words or image that reminds a person of a traumatic event. Used often in the Self Injury community to describe something that may cause a person to relapse into a cutting, bullimic, or other self injuring state.
That poem mentions rape and self mutilation. It could trigger.

1. A term used to describe sensations, images, or experiences that trigger a traumatic memory. Related to Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder.
1. I was psychologically scarred watching my best friend get shot in the head as a young teen. That scene in the movie where they shot the hostages triggered unpleasant memories, and I felt myself reliving those horrible experiences again.

A specific thing that causes a mentally ill individual's brain to go into a state of hypervigilance. The thing that triggers them makes them feel unsafe and or threatened. Contrary to popular belief, this does not just occur in people with PTSD, though it is much more common in people with PTSD and a type of anxiety disorder.
"He made a couple of rape jokes and I think it triggered me..."
"Yelling is definitely a trigger of mine."

I don't know how you guys do it . . .
When the Cowboys are on . . .I don't want to do anything but focus on the television . . .
I've found that when I post during the game too much happens without me really realizing it.
Maybe my pea-sized brain just can't multi-task . . .
Hold on . . . I have to take a breath . . .
If we lose, I honestly do wonder if Henson's in for the remainder of the year?
I suppose it depends if BP thinks he's ready . . . .
the change??? oh boy, thats a big decission.. have your been counselled on it?
Jerry Rice looks very very old.
Anybody know what Jerry runs the 40 in nowadays? 15.7? 16.1?
Jerry Rice IS very old.
I want to see JuJo have a big game tonight.
the cowboys win the toss and get the ball first.
We win the toss and will start on O
Oh!! by the way we are 0 & 5 when we have won the toss.
Strong dosses of Julius please
Why does LA always look like he got a mouth full of tobacco?
Rogers not starting I guess.
Nice punt coverage.
I loved that call on 3rd & 5. Julius should've caught it.
Not a good start. We look a little jumpy. Hopefully the defense can start strong.
I hate Dat Dude.
Nine yards at a clip...not good.

Dear Iola, For many years now, you have written so many excellent bios for Find-A-Grave, among them on some of the memorials about Scandinavian monarchs. I am currently requesting to add some links and minor adjustments to a few of those, and I sincerely hope you'll be pleased, as you deserve to be. Yours truly, Jacob Truedson Demitz

Elias Boudinot
Thank you so much for an accurate & sensitive portrayal. If I read one more time about how the Ridge's and Boudinot "caused" the Trail of Tears I was going to beat my head against the wall! (My daughter is a direct descentant of Andrew Ross , who probably was in on the Echota Treaty signing for what he could get? How can you ever really know?) People who haven't studied the history of the nation and then open books in the middle think they understand and assume blame and so much bias! Was Chief Ross really that perfect as a Chief? Tired of those three signer's being so reviled!

BackTrack, Present and Future
Information security experts who focus on penetration testing rely on BackTrack as the leading distribution for their practices. BackTrack started as a personal side project well over 5 years ago and by now has been downloaded over 5 million times.
Many people have devoted countless hours of their lives to make sure BackTrack is the best it can be. Now it is time to take that to the next level. Offensive Security has started officially funding the development of BackTrack, allowing for a more steady development cycle.
Together with the unbelievable support and help of the open source community which has cared for us over the years, we are ready to take BackTrack to a whole new level. This move will give BackTrack the momentum it needs to maintain real time updates, to support full time quality development and explore new and exciting options in the development of the world's #1 choice distribution for penetration testers.
What does this mean? This means that from this day onwards, the BackTrack distribution will have a more stable development cycle, more versatility and better QA – while remaining free, as always. This move has also allowed us to build a BackTrack roadmap for the first time in its history. Yes, that's right…that's "BackTrack 5" written there…
Lastly, you can finally get those awesome BackTrack Vinyl stickers online – check out our swag page.
