Mr. HOEVEN. Mr. President, I rise today to introduce legislation on another matter, important energy legislation for our country. I am today introducing the Hoeven-Conrad-Baucus Coal Ash Recycling and Oversight Act of 2012.
In my home State of North Dakota there is a large powerplant just north of the State capital in Bismarck. It is a coal creek power station. Now this power station generates 1,100 megawatts of electricity every year. There are two 550 megawatt plants. It has the latest, greatest technology emission control and clean coal technology. They capture the steam that was formally exhausted from the plant. They capture that steam and use it to run an ethanol plant. They produce transportation fuel with steam, a by-product of the electric generation process.
One of the other things they do, instead of land filling the coal ash, fly ash, or coal residuals, they recycle. So, in essence, they take that coal ash--they work with a natural resource company, Headwaters, based out of Utah, and they turn the coal ash into a concrete product, FlexCrete. It is used to make roads, bridges, buildings, and also products like shingles. They make building materials.
So whereas they used to take about 600,000 tons a year of coal residuals and coal ash flash and landfill it, and it costs $6 a ton or so to landfill it, now they take that 600,000 tons a year of fly ash and residuals and turn it into building products.
The difference instead of paying to dispose of something and now being paid to recycle something is about a $16 million a year revenue item for that plant. That means lower cost for electricity for businesses in States such as the great State of North Dakota and the great State of Minnesota and other States as well. It truly benefits our consumers, our families, and our economy. It benefits small businesses throughout the upper Midwest. So it is truly a great example of American ingenuity and innovation.
In fact, I have a picture right here. This is the North Dakota Heritage Center. Right now there is a $50 million expansion being constructed in that Heritage Center which is located on the capital grounds in Bismarck. It is a $50 million expansion. They are using building materials made of coal ash for this facility. That is what it is going to look like after they do this $50 million expansion.
Let me give another example. This is the National Energy Center of Excellence at Bismarck State College. It is a 2-year college that trains people for the energy industry. It is located right above the Missouri River. This beautiful window overlooks the Missouri River. Again this is a building constructed with building materials made of fly ash. We can see how this product is being used and how effectively this is being used.
As a matter of fact, if we look nationwide, by recycling coal ash we reduce energy consumption by 162 trillion Btus every year. That is the amount of energy we would use to 1.7 million homes in a year. It is pretty substantial energy savings. Or measure it in terms of water use. By recycling coal ash, we reduce water usage by 32 billion gallons annually. That is about one-third of the total amount of water that the State of California uses in a year.
Why do I tell the story? Because right now the EPA is looking at changing the regulation of coal ash. They are looking at changing the regulation of coal ash to doing it under subtitle C of the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act. The problem is that is the hazardous waste section. Right now coal ash is regulated under subtitle D of the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act, which is the nonhazardous waste section. The EPA is looking at making that change in spite of the fact that the Department of Energy, the Federal Highway Administration, State regulatory agencies, and the EPA itself have done studies, and those studies have shown that is not a toxic waste.
The EPA first proposed this new regulation in June of 2010. This regulation would truly undermine the industry, drive up costs, and eliminate jobs when our economy can least afford it. In fact, according to industry estimates, it would increase electricity costs by up to almost $50 billion annually and eliminate 300,000 American jobs.
Let me elaborate. Meeting the regulatory disposal requirements under the EPA's subtitle C proposal would cost between $250 and $450 per ton as opposed to about $100 per ton under the current system. That would translate into $47 billion in terms of burden on electricity generators that use coal and, of course, most importantly, their customers who would see their bills increased. As I said, overall it would cost about 300,000 American jobs for our economy.
That is why I am introducing the Hoeven-Conrad-Baucus Recycling and Oversight Act, which is S. 3512, and it has very strong bipartisan support. It is truly a bipartisan bill, including 12 Republican sponsors and 12 Democratic sponsors. The Republican sponsors include myself, Senator McConnell, Senator Portman, Senator Boozman, Senator Blunt, Senator Ron Johnson, Senator Moran, Senator Alexander, Senator Toomey, Senator Graham, Senator Thune, and Senator Hatch. The Democratic cosponsors include Senator Conrad, Senator Baucus, Senator Kohl, Senator Landrieu, Senator Manchin, Senator Warner, Senator Pryor, Senator McCaskill, Senator Ben Nelson, Senator Bill Nelson, Senator Casey, and Senator Webb.
I wish to thank them for their willingness to join together in a bipartisan way--12 Republicans, 12 Democrats--coming together to provide the kind of energy legislation that is going to truly help move this country forward, empowering not only more energy development but better environmental stewardship.
This legislation is similar to H.R. 2273, which was sponsored by Representative David McKinley of West Virginia in the House, and it passed the House with strong bipartisan support. This legislation is very similar. We have made some enhancements, but it is very similar.
The bill not only preserves coal ash recycling by preventing these by-products from being treated as hazardous, it also establishes--and this is important because it is also about good environmental stewardship--it also establishes comprehensive Federal standards for coal ash disposal. Under this legislation, States can set up their own permitting program for the management and the disposal of coal ash. These programs would be required to be based on existing EPA regulations that protect human health and the environment. If a State does not implement an acceptable permitting program, then EPA regulates the program for the State. As a result, States and industry will know where they stand under the bill, since the benchmarks for what constitutes a successful State program will be set in statute. EPA can say yes, the State does meet those standards, or no, it does not, but the EPA cannot move the goalposts.
This is a States-first approach that provides regulatory certainty. Let me repeat that. This is a States-first approach that provides regulatory certainty, and it is that regulatory certainty we need to stimulate private investment that will deploy the new technologies that will not only produce more energy but will produce better environmental stewardship.
What is certain is that under this bill, coal ash disposal sites will be required to meet established standards. Those established standards include groundwater detection and monitoring, liners, corrective action when environmental damage occurs, structural stability criteria, and the financial assurance and recordkeeping needed to protect the public.
This legislation is needed to protect jobs and help reduce the cost of homes and roads as well as to help reduce electric bills.
I wish to thank both Republicans and Democrats who have taken a leadership role in this effort as original sponsors of the legislation. I especially wish to express thanks to my fellow Senator from North Dakota, Mr. Conrad, as well as Senator Baucus of Montana and their staffs for the hard work that has gone into this legislation. I urge our colleagues to join us in this important energy legislation.

It arrived one day shy of 4 weeks!!!
It's a Fist, #45 which has a mag holder in front of the gun. I got it w/ a closed bottom.
It's a great looking holster! It wears well, retains well, & draws well. My only concern for now is that the checkered grip of the P11 is rubbing my side red.
It came w/ the "body protector", but that only separates the slide from my side, not the grip.
It's going to be my EDC holster for work or whatever. My work is physical... bending, squatting, stretching to one side or the other, so I'm looking for a solution.
One option that comes to mind is to add a rubber grip like the one offered by HandAll, Jr. Any thoughts?
Proverbs 27:12 says: The prudent see danger and take refuge, but the simple keep going and suffer for it.

You might try different positions to try to find a sweet spot that doesn't rub as much
"Outside of the killings, Washington has one of the lowest crime rates in the country,"
--Mayor Marion Barry, Washington , DC .
Thanks... I'll be stopping to pick up a few wife beaters tomorrow.
Also, I'm seeing that part of the rubbing is coming from the two "body protectors"(one for the slide & one for the extra mag). They are new & stiff, & I even feel a little "lip" along the edge. I'll be working the very edge by hand to soften it a little. I may also use sand paper to remove the lip from the inside of the edge.
OK, problem solved.
I did three things...
1)... I put the very tip of the two "body protectors" in the vise (one at a time) & wagged the holster side to side, softening up the very tip. This could be done w/ pliers as well.
I was careful not to work out the stiffness of the main length of the "body protector" so it would stand up in it's place as it was designed to do.
This only softened the top edges were they made contact w/ my side.
2)... also I used rough sand paper (by hand) to remove the rolled edge from the finishing process & further soften the edge.
3)... and for the rough, checkered handle rubbing my side, I added a "Handall Jr" rubber grip cover.
It felt much better immediately, even w. the red places the rubbing had caused wearing it the last few days since I got it.
Now I don't think I'll even need the wife beaters!!!

I'm currently working on a site for a client who has a site which uses frames, and he asked me why Google always linked to the "wrong" page. He did not build this site himself of course, and hasn't got much of a clue as to how HTML works, let alone search engines. He asked me to explain it to him, and I did.
Become a technical SEO expert with our Technical SEO 1 training! »$ 199 - Buy now » Info
But then the other day, I saw the search term "frame sites Google" show up in my referrals, and decided I should blog on it. Let's start with a "normal" page. The URL of the page you're looking at is the same for both the user and Google. This is quite different with a frames page, as the URL you're seeing in your browser, is the URL to a page which actually divides up your screen in to different windows, the so called frameset. So if you have 3 frames, there's actually 4 URL's: one for the frameset page, and three for the three different frames.
Now if Google were to link to your content, it would link to one of the frames directly, and not to your frameset page. So the user sees that frame page without the frame around it, as you intended it.
But what about
There is a "workaround". When frames were created, in HTML 4, the
noframes tag was invented as well, intended to be used by user-agents which cannot render frames. You can use the
noframes tag to provide alternate content for bots and users with browsers unable to render frames.
This tag is being abused a LOT though, and I'd advise heavily against using it, in fact, as you probably understand by now, I advise heavily against using frames at all.

Could this megacopter carry people?
By Jim Drury
Students who have a remote-controlled multicopter drone that set a Guinness World Record for the heaviest payload ever lifted by such a vehicle say they hope to get permission to fly a person in its structure.
The University of Oslo team built the large unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV), over an 18 month period. It contains 13 propellers and eight hexacopters powered by a total of 48 motors that reside on a frame built from aluminum and plywood.
Last October it broke the world record by lifting a payload of 61 kilograms (134lb 7.6oz) into the air and holding it there for 37 seconds, elevated to a height of at least one meter at all times.
The record attempt was far from easy, with the drone unable to lift its initial payload of 73 kilograms and having to reduce its weight. Team member Kine Gjerstad Eide told Reuters high winds almost forced the abandonment of the attempt, made in front of a large crowd of fellow students, and attended by Guinness representatives.
"We had to try three times and then the third try we made it," she told Reuters. "We flew for about 37 seconds with a payload of 61 kilos and the whole 37 seconds we had to be one meter above the ground."
The megacopter was piloted by Henning Pedersen and Dan Richard Isdahl Eng.
"It has 48 motors, 48 propellers, and those 48 propellers are grouped in eight groups and every group there are six motors and those motors are exactly the same speed," explained Pedersen. "Then we have a flight controller with eight outputs and those eight outputs are controlled individually. So the flight controller thinks it only has eight motors; and then we have 24 batteries, so each of those eight collections have three batteries each that they share."
He added: "We researched the motors. We found one motor could lift three-and-a-half kilos, and we multiply that by 48 and we got a maximum lifting power of over 150 kilos. So it was kind of just multiplication, basically." Continued...

What it takes to win with Customer Experience
Customers have been sampling good and bad customer experiences since cavemen began bartering. More recently the discipline of Customer Experience (CX) has developed bringing with it NPS, journey maps, CX Forums, customer centric culture ... but has all this theory really improved anything for the customer?
I believe the key to delivering an excellent customer experience is being able to put passion into practice. Having the perfect journey plan won't deliver an excellent CX if those dealing with the customers don't have a passion for their customers. Equally enthusiastic people without a practical process focussed on delivering what the customer wants may well make the customer feel good but the customer won't ultimatey receive what they need.
Over time I aim to flesh out both elements of putting passion into practice and bring them together to help others deliver a truly excellent customer experience. Please pop back soon...

Let's try again... A few short words that could describe anything... a driver's test you failed, getting sprayed while changing a baby's diaper, walking into a sliding glass door, starting over a new 4 year Olympic cycle or even... blogging.
I read in an article once that you aren't supposed to apologize for not blogging for a while... but does that apply for one week, 3 months, or... 7 months. I am sorry, but I also feel the need to explain...
I read in an article once that you aren't supposed to apologize for not blogging for a while... but does that apply for one week, 3 months, or... 7 months. I am sorry, but I also feel the need to explain...
I came into this season more prepared than I have ever felt. I dialed in many weaknesses that had presented themselves during previous seasons. I was training better than ever and my coaches felt that I was on track.
However, sometimes life decides that it will test you, and we don't get to choose when this happens. It was a season of struggle, disappointment and picking myself back up to try again.
I've often said of my past seasons that they were seasons of learning, and seasons of growing, and that is true, however, this season was truly a year that made me take a step back, ultimately to realize that I have to make big changes to take multiple steps forward.
Sometimes it takes challenges, set backs and struggles to make you realize the drive that is inside of you, how much you can handle, how well you can ski under difficult circumstances and the changes that need to be made in order to soar in the future. These challenges ranged from equipment changes to allergic reactions the morning of a race.
Through all of this I didn't want to write. I was trying to get better, trying to "snap out of it" and change things around, and this is where I put my focus.
I will not dwell on these things on my blog. Instead I want to take you to the period of time that everyone is wondering about and that I have been dreaming about my whole life, the Olympic Games.
First of all, to answer the most important questions that are floating around in everyone's minds... no I did not see two toilets in one stall, yellow drinking water or open manholes dropping 15ft. Actually, Sochi is a beautiful place, the volunteers were incredible friendly, other venues were quite easy to get to and our accommodations were very nice.
I arrived in Sochi about midway through the games and my first experience was eating kabobs at a giro stand. However, my first Olympic experience was watching my friend Denny Morrison win a silver medal in speed skating after his teammate, Gilmore Junio, gave up his spot for Denny.
This is what truly began my Olympic experience. Remember when I wrote a blog post about "inspire and be inspired"? Well I was truly inspired.
Leading up to the games I had been struggling with some back pain, making some equipment changes and dealing with a disappointing first half of my season.
However, I knew a few things:
1) None of these things mattered and I could still be a contender
2) No matter what was thrown at me I was ready to deal with it
3) Inspire... No matter what happened I was going to hold nothing back. I was not going to let anything stop me from skiing like myself and behaving in a way that was true to myself.
I decided that I would start the GS race after quite a few months of focusing on slalom. As many of you saw the weather was difficult on this day. We experienced tough conditions and mostly... a lot of snow and rain.
However, I was simply happy to be skiing GS again. I was happy to stand in the start and get the jitters out, and most of all I was so pleased that I felt some amazing feelings again in GS. I ended up 21st in the race, which is my second best result in GS to date.
I came through the finish line and saw one of the only Canadian flags in the crowd... It was my dad, drenched to the bone, wearing a "Go Erin" t-shirt over his ski jacket, waving a flag with a huge smile on his face. And this made me think... To all those parents out there paying a great deal of money so that their kids can race and then spending more money to stand freezing on the side of the hill to watch their kids... Yes, it is worth it.
We appreciate every penny you've ever spent and every toenail you've ever lost. And to those athletes that wonder if it is all worth it... Just look into your parents face after a race whether you have done well or not.
My Olympic result in slalom was disappointing, however it was not devastating. I came into the slalom ready to race, against all odds. I stood in the start feeling a smile starting to form on my face because I knew that finally I was ready to race.
I pushed out of the start and I can still imagine the rhythm of the course and my feet finding the tempo of the rut. About 2/3 of the way down the course I was in around 4th or 5th, but then I was off by a centimeter, a millimeter even, and I straddled.
I swallowed a skifull of the salted snow, coughed a few times and then thought, "You have to go down and wave at your fans, your family and Canada."
My goal for the Olympics was not to simply finish, it was to be a metal contender, and that is why I am not devastated. Of course I am disappointed, however I gave everything I could. It didn't work out for me this time, but I didn't let anything, including past experiences, hold me back.
I've had some time to digest my season, my struggles, my successes and I've discovered some changes that I want to make. We have just completed our physical testing and I feel positive that with the team in place behind me I can make the changes that I want to make. I am continuing to pursue my dream and my goals, but first I wanted to thank all of you for your support, your belief and your kind words.... and now... let's get back up and try again.

I lost my baby yesterday. At a routine 16 wk pregnancy check up there was no heartbeat and I delivered him last night in the hospital. I feel my milk coming in and was thinking of donating it for a while locally. It feels better to pump and I would feel good knowing something positive can come from our loss, like giving my milk to a preemie.
Does anyone have any resources like a pumping schedule or what I should be doing and how often. If I should take teas or tinctures. It's helpful for me to think about helping someone else right now, to get through our grief. Thank you.
Oh, mama, you are a beautiful person! I am so, so sorry for your loss. (((hugs)))
The recommended schedule years ago when I did peer counseling was to pump every 3 hours with a 5 hour break at night to sleep.
You can certainly load up on oatmeal (a wonderful comfort food all around) and mother's milk tea. Stout beer can be helpful, too, in moderation of course.
Above all else, please take extra good care of yourself and be gentle wtih your body and spirit. Best wishes to you and yours.
no advice, just wanted to thank you and tell you how incredible you are for thinking of others during such a difficult time. you are amazing. don't forget it.
Thank you for your thoughts. It's hard right now not to feel my baby kicking inside me anymore, knowing I will never get to hold him or nurse him. But it feels right to donate. I'll make some oatmeal and tea. I'm more of a wine drinker than beer, but I'm not ready to drink anything yet anyway. I have a Medela freestyle double pump, is 10 minutes every 3 hours a good amount? or should it be 15 minutes? I have some motilium/ dom but I forget the dosing on that.
You can start by applying moist heat to your breasts and giving them a little massage from the chest wall down toward the nipple. Then start pumping and stop when the milk stops flowing. Of course, if you experience pain or even discomfort, you would want to stop right away.
I'm not sure if you intend to encourage a full supply or if you just want to catch the milk that your body will produce naturally over the next couple of weeks. If it's the former, keep it up almost around the clock and be sure to "drain" your breasts of milk. If it's the latter, pump only when you feel uncomfortably full and only until the pressure is just relieved.
Have you found a mama in need yet? If not, you may want to visit this site.
A close family member had a full term loss several years ago. I was present at the birth. I can only imagine what you are going through now. My family member was still nursing her toddler and I know it helped her immensely to feel the milk wasn't "going to waste". I'm sure you've posted on the loss forum, but if you'd like to tell me your baby's name or anything else about him/her, I'd be glad to listen via PM. More hugs to you mama.
Thank you so much. It was a boy, we named him Gabriel. I feel better pumping, it helps my hormones I think and it feels good to know his little life can do some good helping an infant in need. I posted his birth story in the loss forum http://www.mothering.com/community/forum/thread/1297027/no-heartbeat-at-16-weeks#post_16252008
It helped to write it down. I was thinking once my supply came in I'd contact my local eats on feets group, I wanted to wait and make sure I'll have milk first. I'm pumping every 2-3 hours and added some tea and started taking the dom. If I remember right it took about 3-4 days for my milk to come with my other two babies, but after that I was a very prolific milk producer. Just for a little while, focusing on this is helping me get through this. Today is better than yesterday. Thanks again.
I'm so sorry for your loss-what a wonderful, loving mama he has! It sounds like you're doing pretty well-I EP and the standard advice for the immediate PP period is 8-12 times a day, 15-20 min at a time. It's more important to get the same number of pumps in per day than sticking to a strict schedule-sleep is important too. If you want a lot more information, you can check out the Exclusively Pumping on Ivillage (http://forums.ivillage.com/t5/Exclusively-Pumping/ct-p/iv-ppexcluspump)Hugs to you-I hope you find peace.

outstanding. Pictures and range report next.
Happened all in one day, using Davidson's Gun Genie (with their email alert).
And my "best favorite" local dealer. Davidson's had five this morning. Now they have zero.
My local dealer had been "searching" for a long time. The gun is next to my keyboard. Beautiful.
For the story in rimfirecentral.com's Browning sub-forum.
Finally got my FLD Plus Rosewood UDX - RimfireCentral.com Forums
outstanding. Pictures and range report next.
It's a pretty thing. I hope you enjoy it as much as I do mine.
I miss mine. Should have never sold it! Damn.
I only own one .22 pistol and it is a Buck Mark. It is one of my favorite shooters and arguably the handgun that I am most accurate with. Congrats and Enjoy!
Just got a buckmark myself!! This is my first post too. Got the buckmark plus UDX ss with scalloped grips. Only shot is once and love it!!! Cant wait till tomorrow to go shoot again. Got a great deal on it and man was it hard to find one.
I'm taking my Buckmark next time out, probably Monday. They are really sweet guns. Welcome aboard.

US gov't relations specialist tells Jamaican firms: Stop wasting money on FATCA
(Jamaica Gleaner) A senior government-relations specialist in the United States (US) has declared that Jamaican financial institutions should "stop wasting their money" trying to revamp their operations in preparation for the implementation of the new American tax law, the Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act (FATCA).
The advice from James Jatras, who also manages the US-based website repealfatca.com, comes in the wake of a report in the US that the Treasury Department will miss the January 1, 2013, deadline it had set to publish the final regulations that will govern the new legislation.
This is the second missed deadline for the publication of the final regulations and analysts say it raises doubts as to whether the new law, designed to track American tax-dodgers worldwide, will be in place by June next year.
"Stop paying accountants and tax lawyers lots of money to become compliant with rules that don't even exist yet. Why do you spend money complying with rules that don't even exist, rules that may never even take effect?" Jatras questioned.
According to him, the delay is an indication that the US is finding it increasingly difficult to convince other countries to sign reciprocal inter-governmental agreements and said financial institutions in Jamaica and the rest of the Caribbean should stop pushing their governments to negotiate a deal with Washington.
"This is exactly what Washington wants … . Washington knows they cannot enforce FATCA unless your country and other countries agree to put the shackles on themselves," he said.
But it appears Jatras' advice has come too late for some local financial institutions which, according to Earl Jarrett, the general manager of Jamaica National Building Society (JNBS), have already spent "a lot of money" to engage the services of accountants and attorneys "to help get ready for FATCA".
He explained: "Many have identified firms to do the necessary assessments to determine what are the gaps (between Jamaican law and FATCA), what are the system requirements that will have to be put in place, and what are the compliance regimes that have to be put in place."
The JNBS boss said he was viewing the pending legislation from two perspectives.
"I am looking at it from the point of view that there's something that's coming that will require me to act in a particular way," he said.
"On the other hand, I am also trying to encourage the Government to look at the policy issues to either make this thing go away or find a way to ensure that it is done in a fashion that doesn't cause me to break any Jamaican rules," Jarrett added.
FATCA, which was passed in 2010, requires foreign financial institutions (FFIs) worldwide to sign an agreement to identify, document and report savings, investment and life insurance on "US persons" with accounts containing at least US$50,000 or the equivalent.
US persons are defined as dual citizens, those born in the US, American citizens residing outside the US, American passport holders, and green-card holders.
The law also applies to non-US citizens who stay as long as 183 days or six months in the US. Their taxes will be estimated from the first day they enter the country.
The FFIs are required to sign agreements with the Internal Revenue Service in the US by January 30, 2013, with reporting scheduled to begin in June.
FFIs that do not comply will be subject to a 30 per cent withholding tax by US authorities.

well... i hit something... SVT
going down the highway, just took my 03 svt through the car wash, pretty girl in the passenger sea,t omw to Boston when BOOM!!! the car in front of me coasts over what looks like a big hydraulic pump in the middle of the lane! which gets tossed around, lands under my car spewing oil everywhere and cracking my right rear wheel and damaging my right front. slapped on the donut, went home and borrowed the old man's fusion for the rest of the night.
now... what to do... it's going to the body shop monday for a previous encounter with a high school girl and a corolla... dealer says back wheel is done-for and maybe even the front too... i have access to a tire machine and balancer. do i claim insurance (already high since i'm only 18) anyone in the area have some extra svt rims laying around? opinions/ comments appreciated. ill pull the tires off in a few days to check internal damage.
new set of tires, easily get a nice pair on here
About 140 apiece new, best deal I ever found on new ford rims. (under focus,chassis, wheel)
I've bent so damn many 6 spoke svt wheels its not funny. 5 before I sold the car they were on, and always on the inside.
You'll find it's more to repair or find a used at a junkyard, than buy a new one at the place I suggested. they are pretty quick shipping too.
that wheel is EFFED
One thing you might want to check is whether or not, in your state, it could be considered a claim under comprehensive. I know in Virginia a comprehensive claim cannot be held against your driving record. Plus, it's usually a lower deductible.
I a 5-spoke wheel if you want. PM if interested.
SVT rim
Try Tire-Rack ...They have original Ford wheels and the prices are almost 75% off Ford

"They Should've Never Gave You Niggas Corporate Cards"
I disappointedly watched some brainwashed Uncle Tom 80's Babies in my posts blame their own generation for ruining Hip Hop. They truly believed that because the music now is arguably worse than ever (1997 anyone?), that's its totally our fault. But us "crack babies" are only a product of our environment and upbringing. Yeah it's all about the soundscan, sales and BDS now but who put this mentality in the 80's Babies minds? Rap has been on a steady decline for 9 years now and I believe The Tunnel Generation (Puff, Irv, Jay, Dame, Stoute, Suge even Nas, etc) set that precedent. Their entrepreneurial spirit has single-handedly been a giant double-edged sword for the Hip Hop culture.
"I dumbed down for my audience to double my dollars…They criticize me for it but they all yell 'Holla'…if skills sold truth be told, I'd probably be lyrically Talib Kweli….truthfully I want to rhyme like Common Sense…but I sold 5 Mil….I haven't been rhyming like Common Since!"-A '69 Baby (no homo)
"Don't worry if I write rhymes…I write checks!" –A 70's Baby
Don't get it twisted. The music The Tunnel Generation released while they were still hungry was undisputedly dope. Ready To Die, Reasonable Doubt, Illmatic, Life After Death, Pain Is Love It Was Written, Its Dark And Hell Is Hot plus a plethora of classic singles and collaborations were all timeless pieces of work. They were eager to prove themselves as bosses and executives like Lyor, Russell, Kevin Liles, Jimmy Iovine, Donnie Ienner and Clive Davis gave them a shot to succeed. Never before in rap did a group of new Hip Hop businessmen takeover the rap industry like that. Then by eliminating the old schoolers who had their foots on the 70's Babies necks, the Tunnel Gen was able to get funding and start releasing artists themselves. No more did they have to answer to people who tried to hold them back; it was a beautiful thing. But it's when the corporate cards came that all the problems started.
When The Tunnel Generation started up their own labels, they totally abandoned "real'" rap and proceeded to sell out the Hip Hop culture left and right. Roc-a-fella put a bunch of artists who were pretty much Jay and Dame's "mans and em", cleverly packed under the crystal lifestyle smoke and mirrors. With the exception of Beanie Sigel (they're not getting credit for Kanye), the Roc never put out any credible artists. It was always the production mixed with the Jay mystique that carried that whole movement. None of the other artists stood the test of time or can even be used in the same sentence as the word 'progressive'.
Irv Gotti jumped out the window completely when he started Murder Inc. The man who produced my favorite Jay-Z record ever and Ja Rule made a brand new chamber of falsetto love rap. It's not like Mr. Lorenzo didn't know real rap when he saw it (DMX, Jay-Z), he just understood how much he could make selling out crossing over. Whether that meant doing ecstasy-ish videos with tons of white girls, love songs about crying or getting his Danny Zuko on with Ashanti Newton-John, Irv was not going to leave a dollar on the table. I'm not even going to get into the rest of the roster: Black Child, Blackchild, the guy from the Outlawz, Vita, etc.Gotti milked Hip Hop for every dollar and left it high and dry.
They helped further institute the "sales and spins before quality" mentality into the impressionable minds of 80's Babies everywhere. Kids in high school wanted to be the next Damon Dash instead of the next Rakim. And can you really blame them? That's where the money is! Heck, I cannot lie; part of my entrepreneurial drive is due to the inspiration given to me by The Tunnel Generation. But all this money didn't do anything for the advancement of Hip Hop music as a whole. If anything, it set the bar very low for us 80's Babies. Plus the entrepreneurial spirit can inspire in other ways; ask 50 Cent.
"Niggas keep talking about me…keep calling me crazy…fuck them old school niggas…they stuck in the 80's!" -Fif
"The kid keep a snub wit 'em, good pair of gloves wit 'em
Your first week ain't right, they can't fuck wit 'em
Now if you don't sell 5 mill, they had enough of 'em
Let me find out Hip Hop's turnin' Republican" –An 80's Baby
Long story short, 80's Babies have a tough task at hand: cleaning up the mess the 70's Baby Executives made between 1999 and 2004. So while you grumpy old men are living in the past hugging your De La Soul Is Dead cassettes, we 80's Babies have to look to the future and rebuild this Hip Hop shit. Most of the real 80's infants are waiting for their shot still in High School, college (Wayne '82!) or now getting their first real chance at stardom (Lupe '82!). We got the King Of The South (T.I.P. '80!), the worlds best basketball players (Wade '82 and Lebron '84!), both of the baddestchicks in the game wearing the Roc chain and America's next top mogul (Sick '84!) on our team. Our future is looking bright and we have at least 8 more years to clean up these old schoolers mess. So sit back and watch us do us (pause!)…See you at the 80's vs 70's charity B-Ball game!

When you're in a hole, the first rule is: Stop digging. But Beverly Perdue's campaign is digging a deeper hole every week.
I sound like a broken record about this. But her campaign looks broken.
The News & Observer found that her fundraising report failed to provide the occupations and employers for more than 300 donors, who gave 10 percent of the $3 million she has raised. Absurdly, one of them was a state senator who sits right in front of her during legislative sessions.
The foul-up makes her look either sloppy or shifty. I'm not sure which is worse.
This came on top of the report that, for years, she gave her age as one year older than she really was. Her spokesperson said her husband didn't want people to know she was older.
Maybe Perdue deserves credit for being one of the few people who say they're older than they really are.
More likely, it raises questions about trust and credibility.
In 1998, a young staffer on John Edwards' campaign innocently – but inaccurately – wrote in a bio that Edwards was "a native of North Carolina." Actually, Edwards was born in South Carolina, and his parents moved here when he was a boy.
For the rest of the campaign, voters in focus groups brought up that one error as a reason not to trust Edwards.
It is maddening for a candidate to see something so small blown up in the media, while they feel that all their accomplishments and great ideas for North Carolina get short shrift.
But that's politics.
I've already heard from one big contributor who is holding back on giving to Perdue, concerned about where all this is going. If it keeps going, the campaign will have fewer donors to identify next time.

CANADA STOCKS-TSX may open lower after Chinese data
April 15 (Reuters) - Canadian stock index futures pointed to a lower open on Monday, tracking softer commodity markets, after weaker-than-expected Chinese growth data fueled concerns about the global economic outlook.
* China's economic recovery unexpectedly stumbled in the first three months of 2013 with slowing factory output and investment spending forcing analysts to start slashing full-year forecasts despite official insistence that the outlook was favourable.
* Dish Network Corp, the No. 2 U.S. satellite television provider, offered to buy Sprint Nextel Corp for $25.5 billion in cash and stock, a move that could thwart the proposed acquisition of Sprint by Japan's SoftBank Corp.
* Genetic testing equipment maker Life Technologies Corp has agreed to a $13.6 billion cash buyout by Thermo Fisher Scientific Inc, in one of the year's biggest corporate takeovers.
* Trader Glencore is expected to agree to concessions this week to ease Chinese worries over its grip on the supply of copper, clearing the final regulatory hurdle in its $32 billion acquisition of miner Xstrata.
* Britain's Centrica and Qatar Petroleum International have bought gas and oil assets in Canada from Suncor Energy for C$1 billion, including some with potential for shale gas production, they said.
* Canada stock futures traded down 1.17 percent Continued...

PARIS -- "The Artist" helmer Michel Hazanavicius is to take his first major acting role in "Jacky au royaume des filles" (Jacky in Women's Kingdom), a satirical laffer penned and directed by comicbook artist-turned-helmer Riad Sattouf.
"Kingdom" is set in a femme-led military dictatorship in which gender roles are reversed and men wear the veil.
Hazanavicius will star opposite Charlotte Gainsbourg ("Melancholia") and Vincent Lacoste, who toplined Sattouf's feature debut, "The French Kissers."
Hazanavicius will play the mentor of lead character Jacky, a young man who falls in love with an attractive colonel (Gainsbourg), completely out of his league.

Cavs 70, Jackson 32
Chillicothe earned a 70-32 victory at Jackson Wednesday night.
The Cavs 70 points were the most scored this season as was their 38 point margin.
The Ironmen were entering the game on the heels of their first win of the season, but it was evident early the Chillicothe was going to spoil the Jackson euphoria of the previous 24 hours.
The Cavs used a variety of pressure packages to force Jackson into multiple turnovers to build a 24-2 lead through the first period, then 42-13 at the half and 56-22 through three.
Zach Johnson led Chillicothe with 14 points and Pierce Knisley added 13. Tyler Neal led Jackson with 10 points.
Chillicothe (5-11/4-3) will try to win three straight for the first time this season when they host Portsmouth Friday night.

|Black and Gold Bruins Turn Yellow On Parade Day
|Inconsistency Will Continue For Bruins Unless A Change Is Made
Teams only have between eight and eleven games remaining, so the time to act to secure a spot is now. Despite that, only four teams have mathematically clinched so far. With the divisions exceedingly difficult to overtake, it's largely been a race to get home-rink advantage at the #2 positions, most of which are much more in play. It's certain to be a highly chaotic last few weeks of the season, so let's look at what would happen if the playoffs started as of Wednesday, March 26, before the day's games:
The Coyotes are clinging to a three-point lead for the eight spot out West, while the Blues have a healthy hold on their division and eyes firmly set on the West. Don't count Phoenix out; they did get a big win in Pittsburgh, but doing so multiple times against St Louis, especially if they give up 3+ goals every now and then.
Colorado has been giving up a lot of goals lately, and it's dropped them back down to #3 in favor of Chicago. Other than a shutout against Nashville, Chicago has been very good in their last several games. The Blackhawks have shown their weaknesses before when they're on the ropes, but a bigger problem for Colorado will be putting them back there in quick fashion.
Minnesota has had a close few games, but can't put together a statement win. The Sharks will definitely lick their chops at the prospect of a relatively easy first round, but they have to be careful to win the Pacific first. The Sharks may be four points ahead, but have a whopping three games out of hand. But as is stands now, the Sharks still have plenty of firepower to take care of that business.
The Ducks have had a back-and-forth few weeks, but remain in the race for the division. The Kings have won four straight to follow a three-game losing streak, which itself followed an eight-game winning streak. Despite that, the Kings are a lock for #3, nine points behind #2 and eight ahead of #4 in the Pacific. With all the winning the Kings have done lately, the Ducks will need to keep up the pressure to hold them off.
Boston's massive winning streak ended, but the points streak continues. Detroit is still clawing tooth and nail just hoping to get into the playoffs to begin with. Goal differential is in Boston's advantage +77 to -13, so it's definitely an uphill battle for Detroit in their first season in the East.
Montreal ended Boston's winning streak at 12 with a shootout road win to claim a 3-1-0 season series victory. That is part of Montreal's three-game winning streak (and six wins out of seven games). In their last nine games, the Lightning have either won in regulation or lost in extra time. If Montreal can take down Boston, they can do so to Tampa, which makes it even more important for Tampa to come out swinging and beat Montreal early, which is much easier said than done.
Pittsburgh has been stumbling a bit, but has always kept things close and/or score big. But Pittsburgh has beaten Columbus four times in regulation this season, and the Blue Jackets haven't exactly been on a winning tear lately themselves.
The Rangers have won four straight to climb back to #2, but Philadelphia isn't far behind and can climb back ahead with a win in either game in hand. The Flyers just lost a five-game winning streak of their own, and have matched up so closely with the Rangers for some time. This one is difficult to pick, and the winner could easily be whichever team can steal one last opportunity in the closing seconds of the 3rd Period.

Re: combine tabled graphics
Ok. Thanks everyone. But none of these suggestions work for me. Both
codes are still generating grid graphics with individual plots instead
of tabled plots.
I did figure it out eventually. GraphicsGrid requires list of lists.
And instead of g=Table[Plot[blah]]and Show[g], it needs g= Show[Table
[bla blah]
But now it's displayed as a column instead of a row.
gmn1 = Show[
1/2 (-k1 - k1 - Sqrt[k1^2 - 6 k2 k1 + k2^2]), {k1, 0, 30},
PlotRange -> All], {k2, 0, 10}]];
gmn2 = Show[
1/2 (-k1 - k2 + Sqrt[k1^2 - 6 k2 k1 + k2^2]), {k1, 0, 30},
PlotRange -> All], {k2, 0, 10}]];
GraphicsGrid[{{gmn1}, {gmn2}}]
but if I use,
GraphicsGrid[Transpose@{{gmn1}, {gmn2}}]
GraphicsRow[{{gmn1}, {gmn2}}]
fixes the problem.

Islam no threat to democracy: Nobel winner Karman
By Gwladys Fouche
OSLO (Reuters) - Islam and other religions do not threaten democracy, Yemeni activist and Nobel Peace Prize winner Tawakul Karman said Friday.
To the disquiet of some in the West, Islamist parties are emerging as big winners from this year's 'Arab Spring' uprisings, having won elections in Tunisia and Morocco and taken a strong lead in Egypt's multi-stage parliamentary vote.
"All the religions, they respect democracy. They respect human rights, they respect all the values that all of us carry," said Karman, 32, who will jointly receive the Nobel award on Saturday with two Liberians, President Ellen Johnson-Sirleaf and
Leymah Gbowee.
The problem was not with religions themselves, said the Islamist journalist, but with the intolerant interpretation made by some of their followers.
"The only problem is the misunderstanding from the people who act -- Islam, Christian, Jewish or any other religion -- (as if to say) 'this is THE religion'."
Karman has been called the "Mother of the Revolution" and played a key part in protests in Yemen that led President Ali Abdullah Saleh to agree last month to step down.
She said she hoped that the ongoing uprising in Yemen would change the image of her country abroad as a terrorist haven. Continued...

Breakthrough For Tinnitus Sufferers
Temporary tinnitus - also known as 'Ringing in the Ears' caused by exposure to loud music or noisy machinery now solved by academics.
A company set up by physics students at the University of Edinburgh and University College Dublin has come up with a solution to the problem of temporary tinnitus - or 'ringing in the ears', so often a result of exposure to loud music or working in a noisy environment.
Sufferers of tinnitus include Pete Townshend from The Who, Chris Martin from Coldplay and former US President, Bill Clinton.
The students have formed Restored Hearing, a company based in Sligo, north-west Ireland and claims its 'sound therapy' is so effective, that it can cure cases of temporary tinnitus in 99% of cases. It is now preparing to launch a series of clinical trials at the University of Edinburgh to see if its cure for the temporary condition can be used in treating a more serious permanent ringing in the ears.
Temporary tinnitus has a prevalence rate of 92%, and is a condition almost everyone has experienced when decibel levels are excessive. Ringing in the ears can last for several days and cause the sufferer severe irritation and discomfort. The high-pitched sound is caused when loud noises flatten the tiny hairs inside the ear. The hairs then cause interference with one another, which the brain interprets as a 'phantom' noise.
The Restored Hearing therapy plays low-frequency sounds into the ear, which makes the tiny hairs stand up again.
Restored Hearing began life as a secondary school project in 2007 at the Ursuline College in Sligo. Pupils Rhona Togher and Eimear O'Carroll, together with Physics teacher, Anthony Carolan, set about finding a solution to the problem of temporary tinnitus.
As a result of this research, the pupils' project duly won a prize at the BT Young Scientist and Technology Exhibition.
Eimear is currently a fourth year physics student in the University of Edinburgh while Rhona is on a sabbatical from her physics degree and is working as the CEO. Together with Anthony, they are co-owners and directors of Restored Hearing and as Eimear explains, it's all down to a 'hair-raising' experience.
"Using sound, our therapy stimulates the inner ear to promote the re-straightening of the cochlear hairs that get bent or even broken when they are subjected to high intensity sound. When the cochlear hairs are bent over they interfere with each other and this interference is interpreted by the brain as sound, often in the complete absence of any sound. In 99% of cases the tinnitus of the sufferer was gone after one minute of our sound therapy."
When Restored Hearing started to think about continuing its work to help people with permanent tinnitus, it secured the assistance of LAUNCH.ed, the University of Edinburgh's student entrepreneurs business start-up programme, who, together with Enterprise Ireland have embarked on a fund raising programme which aims to raise £500,000 to develop the long term strategy for Restored Hearing's research and development aspirations into the cure for permanent tinnitus and hearing protection products.
Eimear O'Carroll added;
"While investigating funding options for further research, it was suggested that we commercialise our therapy and set up a business. Being three scientists with no prior experience in business, setting up a company was a completely foreign experience. In the course of establishing Restored Hearing we have faced, but overcome, challenges in securing funding, getting insurance and making the public aware of our product and its benefits."

Hollywood Plastic Surgeon Reveals That Plastic Surgery Isn't Enough
Jager Weatherby on 14 Aug 2014 at 9:00am
When it comes to anti-aging, it's far too easy for many of us to buy into the latest craze promising quick results. However, as Dr. 90210's Dr. Gary Motykie reveals, the best thing we can do for ourselves isn't to rush to the makeup counter or the doctor's office, but to think about our beauty from the inside-out.
Of course, there are bound to be some problems that diet and exercise simply can't address. Should you be considering a cosmetic procedure to achieve your results, Dr. Motykie offers his advice on finding a plastic surgeon, as well as the things you should absolutely avoid.
What are the latest anti-aging trends and why does wellness have to come first for the best results?The latest anti-aging trends are towards more organic approaches that are less invasive and more preventative in nature than ever before. People must realize that it's the sum of all the little things we do on a daily basis rather than a single procedure performed once a year. Each step we take — eating right, getting rest, relieving stress, and detoxifying our organs — will help us reverse the signs of aging and slow the overall process more than any laser or injection could ever do alone.
MORE: Looking Tired? Start With Basic Skincare
How do you know when you need to go beyond the beauty counter?When your normal skincare and wellness routines aren't giving you the results that you want, it may be time to do some research into something more aggressive. Injectable fillers can improve sunken cheeks, thinning lips, and tired eyes, while Botox can be used to eliminate the appearance of crow's feet and brow lines. Most people are surprised at the impressive results they can achieve with non-invasive technology such as radiofrequency skin tightening, fat freezing, and laser skin rejuvenation.
Whether you opt to get a procedure or not, always remember that wellness starts from within. Many times physical exercise, proper nutrition, and stress relief give you the most bang for your buck. However, when a surgical procedure is being considered, optimizing one's health before and after surgery always leads to a quicker recovery, improved outcomes, and less risk of complication.
What, if anything, changes for those shopping for cosmetic surgery right now?Rule #1: Don't bargain shop for parachutes or plastic surgery. Remember, surgery is a serious business. It's not like getting your hair or nails done. The results can be life — and health — altering. People find it hard to believe that more than 50% of my practice consists of revising surgeries performed elsewhere. Buyers should definitely beware, since there are very little advertising restrictions or guidelines for non-Board Certified plastic surgeons. Broad ranging research should be performed on any doctor you are considering to perform a surgical procedure on your body.
MORE: 10 Questions to Ask Yourself Before Picking a Plastic Surgeon
I see patients on a daily basis who have been misled by tricky advertising and confusing language on websites. There's lots of misinformation about surgeons in the digital world —
don't depend on the same type of review system that is used to rate movies or restaurants to rate your doctor. Since it is legal for ANY doctor to perform plastic surgery in the United States (i.e. a brain surgeon, pediatrician, gynecologist, or podiatrist), there is no legal recourse for these patients who are scarred by an impostor.
Do you have any personal stories to share around this one?
How is this different than other countries?Because of my involvement with the reality series Dr. 90210, I have had the opportunity to work with patients from all around the world. Unfortunately, I've seen the same problems occurring in many different countries. As a long-standing leader in the field of plastic surgery, I hope the United States will soon modify their regulations and licensing of doctors, as well as increase penalties for those who are manipulating the system in their favor instead of patient advocacy.
MORE: Here's Why I Chose to Do My Plastic Surgery in the United States
What are common pitfalls or marketing ploys that the consumer should be aware of?Consumers should definitely be aware of the "Groupon-ization" of anti-aging and wellness services. Like I said before, you should never bargain shop for parachutes or plastic surgery. If you do, you may end up paying much more money to fix unexpected mistakes.
Check your surgeon's background including their education, experience, and aesthetic sense prior to having any procedure performed on your own body. Let professional specialty societies and board certification agencies do some of the work for you. (Try the American Society of Plastic Surgeons, American Board of Plastic Surgery, or your State Medical Society.) Doctors who are members of these associations have to meet and maintain a certain level of education to obtain and retain membership.

I'm Back! (Almost)
So after a few long hard months without the Focus its almost back in my possession. If you're curious to know what happened read on...
Back in the beginning of September '12 I was getting ready to add a few great mods to my focus and get closer to building it up into the great machine it deserves to be. I had parked it outside of my dads shop and was supposed to come back the next day to start the working progress. The next morning I got a heartbreaking phone call from my father telling me my car had been broken into. [:(]
I drove up to the shop only to find my poor Focus all kinds of F[:)][:)][:)][:)][:)][:)] up. The passenger window was broken and my stereo looked like it had been hit with a hammer multiple times. My amplifier and capacitor were missing along with the subwoofer. A few hundred dollars of goods was stolen from the car as well (radar detector, iphone, shoes). To make matters worse the whole steering column was torn apart and the car wouldn't start.
Luckily I had full coverage insurance, and I was able to get my car fixed...
Wrong! The car would't start and my father owns a transmission shop, so we got it towed to his friends shop, the adjuster came a few days later and the repair process started. Once the steering column was replaced and the car was started my dads friend noticed my transmission wouldn't go into reverse and once I drove the car I found out it wouldn't go into 6th gear either.
I took the car back to the shop and called the insurance company. They said everything would be fine and they would send an adjuster down to evaluate the repair. It took over three weeks for them to send him down simply for him to deny any repairs, due to lack of "proof" the transmission had been damaged during the theft.
This whole process took two and a half months...
I finally got the car back and its been sitting since due to the lack of funds and getting unemployed.... ( I know FML).
Its a new year and I'm ready to get my baby back and finally get those mods installed!!! [ffrocks]
Sorry to hear about the car. I know how it feels being unemployed I just lost my job 2 weeks ago. If you're looking to replace your system I'm selling mine just email me and we can talk.
Thanks for the offer but I think my insurance is going to replace everything.
I'm really crossing my fingers since I got screwed on my transmission.[drinking]
thats horseshit.
call a lawyer, then have him call your insurance company.
the only downfall is they will probably total the car out, so make sure you get paid good for it, and buy it back...dont let them take it to any of there "prefered" shops, so there are no issues as to who gets the car (if that happens)
wow that really sucks sorry about all that. I've slowly been getting back into my focus again! I've actually driven it three times in the last two months!!
that really sucks man...
good luck with everything...
at least you have your baby back!!!!
Plus I don't think the focus is worth it in terms of $$$.
Thanks for the support guys I hope to have it up and running by the end of the month. [loveff]
Glad you have it back, hope you can have it back on the road soon.
I'm trying to figure out how they could damage transmission... did they drive it? Cause if not then all I can think off is damaged linkage if they somehow applied force t the stick.
They probably screwed up the linkage or bent a shift fork just jaming it around in gears while sitting cause the couldn't get it running? What ever the cause I hope you get it fixed for as little to no money as possible.
I haven't heard back from my dad as to what is wrong with the tranny, but I thought the same thing about it maybe being the linkage since the car was not driven.
