UpNorthTrips Presents The 10s | Fuck The Police State of Mind
words by @evboogie / mix by @UNITEDCRATES
A year short of 25 years old, today marks the anniversary of N.W.A's Straight Outta Compton . One of hip-hop's most defining albums, its release was the genesis of the "gangsta rap" genre. With one fell swoop, the album was responsible for the slow shift from East Coast dominance. "The World's Most Dangerous Group" single-handedly changed the game as they literally burst through the "I Have A Dream" sign in their popular "Express Yourself" video. Straight Outta Compton , which offered up three official singles, is touted for becoming the first album to reach platinum status with no airplay support and without any major tours. (It went double platinum in '92). Penned mostly by Ice Cube and MC Ren, alongside Dr. Dre beats, the album set the foundation for the West Coast Sound and introduced the world to a side of California that most had never seen, one beyond the Hollywood sign. Without a doubt the album's most notorious cut was the rebellious protest record, "Fuck Tha Police." The riotous, outspoken track focused its anger towards the LAPD years before the Rodney King beating. The song was so powerful it even provoked the FBI to caution Ruthless Records about the lyrics.
So in paying homage to the anniversaries of the album and the explosive "Fuck Tha Police," UpNorthTrips lined up 10 other great hip-hop records about cops, for your listening pleasure.
Jay Dee - "Fuck The Police"
Year: 2001
Breakdown: Probably one of Jay Dee's most well-known songs as a solo MC, this joint isn't a cover, but rather a tribute to the original. Dilla reveals that the struggle of being black in Detroit was his motivator for the record. In keeping with the spirit of the O.G. song's message, the 12" sleeve cover for Dilla's single includes pictures of Mumia Abu-Jamal and Rodney King.
Quotable: "Now tell me who protects me from you? I got people who buy Tecs and weed from you." - Jay Dee
Brand Nubian - "Black & Blue"
Year: 1993
Breakdown: Featured off the second Brand Nubian album, Sadat and Jamar narrate two ill stories about crooked cops parading through the 'hood. Sadat's verse describes the saga of a neighborhood hustler turned cop and Lord Jamar drops a tale of a black cop who profiles young blacks. But Brand Nu let's you know that if you're acting foul — cop or not — you'll all get left "Black & Blue."
Quotable: "Now he's feeling like Superman/ To the trooper stand with an Uzi in his hand." - Lord Jamar
Cypress Hill - "Pigs"
Year: 1991
Breakdown: Take a guess who else hates cops? Cypress Hill. (Duh.) Over the funky guitar-looped DJ Muggs track, B-Real speaks his mind about the po-lice. Anybody like pork chops? How 'bout a ham sandwich?!
Quotable: "Well, this pig's standing eating donuts while some motherfuckers out robbin' your home." - B-Real
Geto Boys - "Crooked Officer"
Year: 1993
Breakdown: "Mr. Officer, Crooked Officer, why you wanna put me in the coffin, sir?" Over this N.O Joe produced track, Face, Bushwick & Big Mike offer an open challenge to all the low-down dirty cops out there.
Quotable: "I'm lettin' freedom ring from the hole in my Glock for fuckin' off Rodney King." - Scarface
House of Pain - "Who's The Man?"
Year: 1993
Breakdown: On the lead single from the movie of the same name, House of Pain explains what it's like to be a dirty cop on the run. Sticking up hustlers, letting off shots, and being a cop locked up are a few of the places their stories visually bring us.
Quotable: "Runnin' for the ride, I can't go inside/ I'd rather that I died, I got too much pride." — Everlast
Ill Bill - "How To Kill A Cop"
Year: 2000
Breakdown: Taking his cues from Redman's "How To Roll A Blunt," Brooklyn's Illest Hebrew MC brings us explicit step by step instructions on how to blast a pig.
Quotable: "And now the real fun begins, son/ You kill these ten cops, the best part, you walk away with ten guns." - Ill Bill
KRS-One - "Black Cop"
Year: 1993
Breakdown: KRS' solo debut birthed two anti-police anthems, this and "Sound of the Police." The Blastmaster, always one to speak exactly what's on his mind, makes it clear that he's aiming this directly to the black cops out there aiming their hatred towards their own race and community.
Quotable: "You can't play both sides of the fence/ 1993, mad kids are gettin' tense." — KRS-One
Tim Dog - "If I Was A Cop"
Year: 1993
Breakdown: The title is an obvious one, here. Tim Dog transforms on wax into the life a beat-walking peace officer. With an outlook that is sometimes criminal, sometimes political, it's clear how The Dog really feels when the famous Cypress sample, "sawed off shotgun, hand on the pump", comes on.
Quotable: "If I was a cop I wouldn't fuck with Gotti, I'd fuck with Clinton and the congress party." - Tim Dog
Dr. Dre & Snoop Dogg - "Deep Cover (187)"
Year: 1992
Breakdown: Famously debuting Snoop's rapping skills, this soundtrack-spawned joint proved a major success for both Dre and Snoop. The beat in itself has been freestyled over hundreds of times, and the chorus interpolated throughout endless lyrics.
Quotable: "Kicking dust as I bust, fuck peace and the motherfuckin' punk police." - Snoop Dogg
N.W.A - "Fuck Tha Police"
Year: 1988
Breakdown: The only way to end this mix is to remember where it all started. At the time of its release, this was easily one of the most controversial records of hip-hop's young history.
Quotable: "Ice Cube will swarm on any motherfucker in a blue uniform/ Just cuz I'm from the CPT, punk police are afraid of me/ A young nigga on the warpath/ And when I'm finished it's gonna be a bloodbath of cops dyin' in L.A." — Ice Cube

Thanks, IC. Finally got around to taking my third and final CLEP today, Marketing and passed (68).
Thanks for the resources here. Marketing is my industry, so it was easy, but I never would've gotten through the Financial Accounting test without the IC preparation.
Later, and good luck to all.

From Bean to Bar
On small plantations, in secluded coastal valleys, the grassy plains and the foothills of the Andes, generations of Venezuelan farmers have developed the art of nurturing the finest varieties of criollo and trinitario cacao.
For centuries experts have agreed on one basic truth: Venezuelan cacao is the most flavorful and aromatic in the world. And El Rey uses only 100% Venezuelan cacao, fermented and sun dried, and processed using state-of-the-art technology. From this marriage of art and science are born unique chocolate couvertures that redefine world standards of excellence.
An exceptional chocolate starts with the land, but it takes the art and science of man and a long journey from plantation to glistening factory to turn a humble heap of cacao beans into a luscious chocolate bar.
Chocolate is made from the beans of a beautiful tropical plant with a suggestive name, Theobroma cacao - The Food of the Gods. Cacao grows in humid, warm forests around the world sheltered by a canopy of taller trees.
A mature tree will bear between twenty to forty pods a year. Each pod contains from twenty to forty almond shaped beans enveloped by a mucilaginous ivory tinged substance with a delicious tart flavor. Depending on the variety, a cacao tree will produce between one to three kilos of dried beans per year.
The Spanish conquistadors were fascinated by the hearty chocolate beverages they found in the lands of the Maya and the Aztecs. Their detailed accounts contributed to association of cacao with Mexico. Yet the birthplace of cacao is South America.

Best Surface for Indoor Balcony?
Now that the outside is done....I have one more thing to handle before the rains come.
This is my balcony.....
For the most part, it is covered...but we get some pretty good winds here in S California....translation, water will get blown onto the deck....below that deck is some inside living space....translation.....drywall. I don't want it to get wet for obvious reasons.
The plans call for Mer-Ko Shur Deck...I've heard I can also do hot mop (works in my mild climate).
One of the issues is that we don't want a surface that looks like your typical balcony floor....we are thinking that we would like to either tile it...or better yet use wood...much like you would find on the deck of a ship...
I know it would be expensive...but I would love to have a surface of Teak...
The best of both worlds they have tile now that really looks like wood.
Do you have a drain in there?
I've never waterproofed a wood floor----I wonder if Schluter, Ditra or Kerdi would be acceptable for under tile?
Under a wood floor? Not sure---Roof membrane? Removable sections of wood would be wise--so servicing the deck could be done without demolition.
Its done here quite a bit, use TPO or EPDM or mod-bit roof membrane, the choice is yours, for the waterproof surface. Then these http://www.vikingroofspec.co.nz/cata...jack-pedestals to support your tile or wood surface.
Or use Deck-king membrane (from above supplier) as a finished surface. I think its a Canadian product so you probably have a supplier of these products in your area.
Could you build your wood floor in small sections say like a small pallet with 1x runners. This would make them removable so you could hose and clean under them or rebuild them if damaged. Use PT for the runners.
I agree with this guy.

For Don Lindsay, the starkest indicator of his company's crisis was when the ships stopped coming. From his home, the CEO of mining giant Teck Resources Ltd. can count the boats lined up in the port of Vancouver to carry Teck's coal to the world.
"When the customer stops sending ships, you can see it," says Mr. Lindsay, 51, a former investment banker whose youthful face belies a turbulent five years as CEO.
In December, 2008, shortly after Teck closed a monumental $14-billion deal to buy the Fording coal business, the ships quit appearing. Their absence underscored the economic meltdown that, in the next several months, threatened to sink Canada's largest diversified metals producer.
Today, the ships are back and Mr. Lindsay, having finessed a difficult credit restructuring and acquired a Chinese investor, is breathing a big sigh of relief. But the game has changed, he says. With global recovery proceeding, although fitfully, he is focused on building cash flow from the resource gains made, with some pain, over the past five years.
How do you manage the stress?
The toughest thing is to keep things in perspective. The market always overreacts too positively or too negatively. The boom isn't as good as you think it is, and the crash isn't as bad as you think it is.
What was your darkest moment in the latest crash?
We knew what was happening. We were amazed, on Sept. 30, 2008, that the banks still lent us the money [to buy Fording]... even though Lehman Brothers had gone down, Citibank had been saved, and Goldman and Morgan Stanley had been converted [to banks]to save them.
We had a fiduciary obligation to do everything we could to close the deal, which we did. Then, you knew you were in for a very tough time. So you move into action; you go full out. You don't have time to have a dark moment.
When did it hit home?
Between Christmas and New Year's that year. I was up at our cabin. I'm a single dad with two young girls and I put the girls to bed and I was alone, just staring at the fire, thinking, "Oh my God, what have I done? How am I going to get out of this one?" That was probably the darkest day, when you know you put the plan in place but you don't know if it is really going to work. I had time to reflect and go, "Wow, this is going to be tough."
How do you feel now?
It has been pretty intense but I'm proud of where we ended up. We worked hard to be well positioned in key commodities that the world needs, particularly China. In the last five years, we've done a lot of building. We now have $1,000 of resources per share, and at much lower [commodity]prices. We used to have less than $500.
In the next five years, it is more about converting the resources we got hold of into production and cash flow. We are moving into a different type of growth. It doesn't mean we won't do acquisitions, but they aren't needed as much because of what we did in the past five years.
And you have a Chinese partner?
The Chinese coming on board was the 12th step in our 12-step plan. There is a bit of method in my madness - I called it the "12 steps" on purpose, as opposed to "12 points" or whatever.
In October-November 2008, when the world was in freefall and nobody knew where the bottom was, you needed a manageable plan everyone could relate to. The 12th step was to find a strategic investor. We had several choices - major mining companies, major customers - but to get what is effectively China's sovereign wealth fund was by far the most preferable.
Are there lessons about working with the Chinese?
This didn't happen overnight. I've been going to China for a long time. There is a point at which, all of a sudden, you've been going there long enough that they know you. Then you can probably do business more readily.
Our shareholder [China Investment Corp.]wanted exposure to commodities but they did not need to control them. There are no commercial arrangements, as such. But we are selling coal to China, which we weren't before. They have facilitated introductions.
But don't Canadian companies worry about the Chinese compulsion to control?
It's case by case. CIC is a passive investor; they wouldn't want to take a position over 20 per cent. They have 6 per cent of the votes and 17 per cent of the equity. They didn't even have a board seat for almost a year - and we invited them.Report Typo/Error

Hello friends,
I have a trouble and that makes me mad.. I will explain my problem in a simple scene.. I am opening a new scene, creating a sphere and a box as polygons. Holding this two objects and applying them wrap deformer by Create Deformers > Wrap. (Wrap settings are in default Settings, Exclusive bind:unchecked auto weight:checked render influence obj:unchecked and falloff mode:Volume)
Now when I render this scene sphere is dissapeared and only box is rendered. How can I remove this affect of wrap deformer from sphere and how can I make it visible again?
Thank you..

Pear and almond tart
Verdict? The Yali pears retained a bit of crunch which was pleasant. I also found the pears to be much sweeter than the brown ones so will recommend using less sugar than the original Donna Hay recipe. I've adjusted the amount of sugar below:
Pear and almond tart
60g butter, melted
½ cup (90g) brown sugar
2 eggs
1 cup (120g) almond meal
¼ cup (40g) plain flour
¼ teaspoon baking powder
2 teaspoons finely grated lemon rind
2 yali pears, peeled, cored and cut into thick slices
½ cup (50g) brown sugar, extra
raw sugar, for sprinkling
1. Preheat oven to 160°C.
2. Place the butter and sugar in the bowl of a food processor and process until just combined.
3. Add the eggs, almond meal, flour, baking powder and lemon rind and process until just combined.
4. Spoon the mixture into a lightly greased 9.5cm x 33cm loose-bottom fluted tart tin.
5. Place the pears and extra brown sugar in a bowl and toss to coat.
6. Press the pears into the tart mixture and bake for 35–40 minutes or until cooked.
7. Sprinkle with raw sugar and allow to cool in the tin.

Scripps Howard News Service
Since the voters thought Mitt Romney could not save us from the fix we're in, who's going to do it? The fiscal cliff is just one of many cliffs that has threatened us with a mighty tumble over its edge, and Congress is more nearly the sneak who trips you than the guide who leads you to safety.
Don't meanwhile look for rescue from the White House amateur otherwise known as President Barack Obama. As an example of his helpfulness, this New Year arrives with five new Obamacare taxes that will add painfully to health costs and otherwise bollix up our lives.
Then there's this trick of nominating Sen. John Kerry as secretary of state, and yes, that would be the same John Kerry who returned from the Vietnam War saying our soldiers were war criminals. He also lied about being in Cambodia one Christmas during that war and associated with a radical veterans group that on one occasion voted on whether to assassinate U.S. senators it didn't like.
Remember how, during his 2004 campaign for president, he wanted to risk American lives by having a U.S.-led peacekeeping force save Haiti's dictatorial president from rebels because he had gotten into office through a vote of the people? Well, Adolf Hitler also got into office by a vote of the people, one proof among thousands that the fact of being elected only proves you can fool some of the people some of the time.
A horror of many liberals during that campaign was how Kerry, strutting about as a war hero, was denigrated by veterans of Vietnam Swift Boat operations as pretty much a joke of a soldier. The group's denunciations seem to have been overwrought on some (though not all) particulars, but its TV ads were a mewing kitty cat next to the 2012 TV ads depicting the morally solid Romney as something close to a murderer. Where was liberal angst this time around?
Maybe Kerry as secretary of state would actually get to Cambodia some Christmas, but my firmer conviction is that he would trot elsewhere around the world making a clown of himself and hurting our nation. Senators pretty much give their Cabinet approval to other senators, and my guess is he will get okayed.
But this country will continue to be something other than OK as long as we depend on Washington politicians whose failings could be listed in nothing less than the equivalent of the 356,000-page U.S. code of laws and regulations.
All of which brings me to the states. Maybe that's our way out of at least some of the mess we are in. Wisconsin, under a Republican governor, took on public unions and did get some meaningful measures through the Legislature. More recently, Michigan voted for right to work laws, meaning that unions cannot use the coercive powers of government to keep them in business while simultaneously robbing workers of their rights and the economy of thriving businesses.
There's a great, large fiction in this nation of how unions have forever been the friend of workers when, in fact, there have been all kinds of instances of anti-worker thuggery, theft and economic mayhem at the hands of organized labor. The good and the bad have been mixed for years, even to the point of unions being a major factor in the shutting down of businesses. A real issue is not just high wages vs. low wages, but decent wages vs. no wages.
The problem for the states, of course, is that their constitutionally promised dual sovereignty with the federal government hasn't been respected and that some of them, such as California, are victims of politics as bad as what you find in Washington. In the end, both nationally and in D.C., a wised up electorate will have to make the difference, and maybe, when things get bad enough, that will happen.
(Jay Ambrose, formerly Washington director of editorial policy for Scripps Howard newspapers and the editor of dailies in El Paso, Texas, and Denver, is a columnist living in Colorado. He can be reached at SpeaktoJay(at)aol.com.)
@ QuickStartTyrant: I too got a laugh at the AOL address. Can't say Jay Ambrose isn't living in the last millennium.? Can't say any better how these people are unaware, just unaware. And the Gerrymandering, thats going to be interesting. The Republican has created "safe" districts which I believe will go to the primary candidates who pander the best to the extremest freak, which their extremest rants can then be used against them in the general. Ask Akin. Far as "fox "fox delusional resentment", I tried telling these people Faux "News" was keeping them misinformed, they chose not to believe me, not even look around the littlest bit. And thats why their heads exploded the night of 6 November.
Listen here! My daddy really didn't want to be President to begin with. He only ran because I wanted him to. I think deep down subconsciously he let Obammy win. You Liberal progressive democrats have another thing coming in 2016. Obammy is not winning a third term as others have suggested. Us intelligent conservative critical thinkers will show you what for. We don't need no sugardaddy to care for us. By the way my daddy still has more money than you EVER will, so there!
@ 3rdworld: Yeah, they do carry on. Somehow taking issue with the freakishness of the Bachmans and Wests for nothing more than those peoples freakishness gets twisted into 'sexist' or 'racist' attacks. It couldn't * possibly * be that Cain and Palin are idiots.
Pretty funny stuff coming from a crowd that is bend on destroying itself from within just to appease the radically right Tea Baggers. Get back to us on how smart ya'll are after you have primaried yourselves into insignificance in 2014.
the author still has his AOL email address. lol.
i'm picturing the candy dish full of Werther's Originals on his desk.
now that you've gerrymandered your way into unopposed congressional districts you guys are just arguing with yourselves in fox delusional resentment land. old white people don't like Obama, blah blah blah, nobody cares what you think anymore.
I dont know what all the talking is about. Kerry will sell out his country again. A leopard does not change its spots. It would not surprise me to see Kerry convert to Islam. If we want to put fear into the other countries and get things done, Obama should have appointed Kerrys wife.
I used to think NAACP, womens rights groups, democrats et al were all hypocrites. They would never speak out rejecting racism against a Conservative minority or woman. Think of all the racist attacks against Clarence Thomas, Herman Cain, Sarah Palin, Star Parker, Alan West, Michele Bachman, Michelle Malkin, Condalesa Rice, George Rodrigue.ever hear any defense from the NAACP, Jessie Jackson, President obama? Any equal rights activist?
So again, the first reaction may be to declare liberal progressives hypocrites. Then it finally dawned on me that is not so. Liberal progressives know that for anyone to declare themselves a liberal progressive democrat they are suffering from a mental disorder. They are weak and not entirely aware of their surroundings. They indeed are defenseless and unable to think for themselves.
To paraphrase James Carville, democrats are like mindless cows, just be ready to use the cattle prod once in a while.
Conservatives on the other hand are intelligent, critical thinkers and successful in their endeavors. They dont need nor want a sugardaddy to care for them. Thus they dont get any outspoken defense from those who trash them and hurl racist accusations at them.
My TI told us about opinions and sphincters, about how everyone has one and about the odor, seems Ambrose/ Scripps Howard has a case of the runs. Keep running on Scripps, someone will buy into your disjointed ... swiftboating the guy who was In Country in support of the guy who went AWOL .... and the GOPpers and Right Wingers and TeaBaggers wonder how we know their nuts.
DC is not about to change. They have no reason nor any incentive to change. They have a cushy job, great benefits, fabulous retirement,fantastic paid vacations, great medical care and work few if any houra. Few if any of the DC crowd could make a living in the private sector. So more of the same is what we are going to get until the entire house of cards falls in on itself.

repairing subflooring/sagging flooring
Hello to all, I'm a single mom trying to fix a bad problem with the least expense possible. I live in a very old house and fear the repairs may become more expensive than the money I save by living here. Thank you for the input on my recent questions. I guess i should have been a little more forthcoming with my info on my flooring. I think maybe I didn't want to hear how serious my problem probably is. When my son and I jacked up our sagging hallway we noted some serious wood rot. I'm worried that it is completely unrepairable without major work. The crawl space is about 3 foot deep down to a sand bottom. We live on an island and all of the wood deteriorates terribly plus living in the south you always have the termite factor and with my house being so old well I just know thats part of the problem. I simply can not afford a major overhaul right now and am afraid we'll end up laying in the sand some unsuspecting night under the house. :thumbup: Will post some pics as soon as I can. Thanks for the input. Can I brace rotten joists with new 2x8's with any real hope of it helping? The floor has dropped as much as two inches in some places and because of the rotting wood in the hall we were only able to jack it up about an 1 1/2 inches. I'm probably looking for a miracle answer that isn't possible.
... there are several areas in my home where the floor has begun to sag (its an old home built pre WW2). My son and I jacked it up and partially fixed the problem in the hallway by adding support but now it has begun under the bathroom flooring and especially the toliet. How extensive of a job is this going to be? Can anyone help? Any suggestions? I'd like to do it myself but fear it will be too much involved
We once visited a 900 year pub next to the Coventry Cathedral in England. You had to be drunk to navigate the rolling floors, and nothing that rolled could be left on the floors. My point is, wood will settle over time, and it is difficult to stop it. If, on the other hand, it is settling because of poor support or rot, that can be fixed. Areas in a bathroom are subjected to lots of water that often finds its' way to the framing. When that happens it is usually visible and can be repaired. If that is not your problem, shore it up as you did in other areas. Sometimes sistering another joist or adding bridging will make a big difference. And framing around plumbing fixtures often gets modified with little regard to restrengthening.
Properly raising and supporting a sagging floor system is no small project. The wood itself shouldn't be sagging unless its support system (foundation, piers, posts, etc) is deteriorating. Before spending time and money on the floor, I'd determine WHY it is sagging.
You're correct about this being more complex. You can't just jack up this area without dealing with the plumbing first.
As previously stated, you need to find out why this has, "begun to sag". Once the reason why has been determined, you can go about the repairs.
Could you post some pictures of the area from below, and also the hallway area that you previously repaired so we can give you better advice. BOB
Post some pictures, if you can. Above and below. I'm a licensed structural engineer with DIY house jacking experience, and I'd like a look. I wouldn't be able to seal a drawing for you, but I'm sure we all could come up with some good advice and (maybe) a game plan to DIY.

Israeli organ donations soar after soccer star dies
By Maayan Lubell
JERUSALEM (Reuters Life!) - Organ donations in Israel rocketed in January after the death of an Israeli soccer star prompted a religious debate on brain death into the headlines.
Former Israel and Liverpool defender Avi Cohen sustained severe head injuries in a motorcycle crash in December. He was pronounced brain dead and put on a respirator.
Cohen had signed an organ donor card. But his family refused to give away his organs. Newspaper reports said rabbis had appealed to the family not to donate. Cohen's widow said the decision against donation was her own.
Some influential rabbis teach that taking organs from a person who is brain dead is tantamount to murder. "The number one reason people give for refusing to donate organs is religious. Jewish law is perceived, mistakenly, as being against it, when as you know in Judaism it depends which rabbi you ask," said Professor Jacob Lavee, head of Israel's Transplant Centre's Steering Committee.
In general, most ultra-orthodox rabbis are against organ donation while others adopt a more liberal interpretation of Jewish ritual law.
Rabbi Yossef Eliashiv, one of the most influential rabbis in Israel and regarded by Ashkenazi ultra-Orthodox Jews as "the Sage of the Generation," has ruled that death can only be pronounced when the person's heart has stopped beating.
Other leading rabbis have come out against Eliashiv's stance, contesting his ruling on the moment of death.
Rabbi Reem Hacohen, head of Otniel Yeshiva in the occupied West Bank teaches that a person is obliged by Jewish law to sign a donor card. Continued...

Debate and the Affordable Care Act is no new combination. Signed into law by President Barack Obama in March 2010, the healthcare reform law passed the House of Representatives and the Senate without a single vote from a Republican lawmaker, setting up Obamacare to be the most divisive issue of his administration. Over the reform's four-plus-year transformation from a campaign promise and healthcare theories to political reality, the Affordable Care Act has played a major role in deepening the rift between Republicans and Democrats. The law's complexity has lent itself to over-exaggerations by both parties, which, even after the cornerstone provision of the reform — the insurance marketplaces launched last October — has left the American public unsure of its ramifications. The Congressional Budget Office is also unable to fully calculate how the reform will impact the country's finances in coming years, mostly because so many details of the Affordable Care Act, including the employer insurance mandate, are still in flux. That reality leaves voters largely pessimistic and more open to a barrage of campaign literature both bashing and lauding the reform's impact on American healthcare system.
To be a success, the Affordable Care Act depends on the proper functioning of essential cogs that, together, make up the massive and complex system of reform. Early measures of the effectiveness of the insurance exchanges at reducing the number of unemployed Americans have showed positive results. But quantifiable measures of performance pillars of the reform have yet to come together to form a coherent narrative of how the Affordable Care Act has improved (or hurt) the American healthcare system. Unanswered questions remain; namely, how sustainable is the individual insurance mandate over the long-term? The budgetary impacts of Obamacare, and its ability to lower overall healthcare costs in America, are still subjects of much debate. As always, the Obamacare debate is not limited to concerns raised by healthcare policy wonks.
Noting that the Obamacare debate has cast a dark shadow over American politics may seem unnecessary, but it is still important to examine how the reform will inform the campaigns of incumbents and challengers, Republicans and Democrats, and representatives and senators. The 2014 congressional midterm elections will be an important checkpoint in the life of the Affordable Care Act. True, analysts will not be able to wake up the Wednesday following election day and say unequivocally that the American cast their ballots in support of the healthcare reform, or to oppose it. However, Obamacare is an important strand in the American political narrative.
Obamacare may not occupy the same position in the national consciousness as it did last fall when the faulty launch of the insurance exchanges created great public outrage, but the broad-based dissatisfaction in the federal government expressed by the American electorate has been profoundly colored by the fight over the healthcare reform. So the main story of November's elections may be that loss of confidence. Yet, the impact of Obamacare on voters can not be discounted. After all, it is the greatest reform to the American healthcare system since the 1960s when President Lyndon Johnson signed Medicare and Medicaid into existence.

Sometimes, I forget to be a good mom and will neglect to do things like warn my nine-year-old son that if he partakes of the American Legion's All-You-Can-Eat Biscuit and Gravy Breakfast, he probably shouldn't enter the festival pizza eating contest a few hours later. He was downing a third slice when I noticed a slight gray pallor to his face. Before I could reach him, it all came back up, splattering the stage with pepperonis, partially digested gravy, and slimy chunks of biscuit.
It was so revolting that other contestants began dropping out. But one hillbilly gal, who bore a strong resemblance to Augustus Gloop, stayed strong. Her daddy, wearing cut-off jeans, white socks, and black patent shoes, tucked a thumb under the strap of his suspenders, raised a greasy, half-eaten, turkey leg into the air and proudly called out, "That's ma baby gurl!"
After that, I tried to discourage my children from participating in such contests, but unfortunately, small town Indiana doesn't offer much to do on a Friday night. Throughout their teen years, food challenges have become a regular source of entertainment.
Most of the time, I am not privy to their endeavors, but sooner or later the video surfaces on YouTube. There, for all the world to see, is my lovely, presumably feminine, daughter filling her mouth with Pop Rocks and attempting to wash them down with Coke. The spew is impressive, but I try not to encourage her.
Another time it was buttermilk, vinegar, orange juice, baked beans, creamed corn, chicken broth, soy sauce, and sardines blended and chugged through a baby bottle. They gnawed off the nipple in order to allow chunks to pass through. A proud moment for this mom.
The food challenges take place in the public arena as well. My sister, who is young enough to be cool, but old enough to be a bad example, took my daughter out for a ten-pound pizza. If completed, they would receive $200 cash.
Instead, it went like this:
Ten pound pizza-$50
Bottle of Pepto Bismol-$4.26
Three hours of wandering the streets to rid oneself of indigestion before driving-Priceless!
Finally, my kids convinced me to tag along on one of their foodie expeditions. I like to think they enjoy my company, but they really just needed financial backing. We made our way to Bub's Burgers and Ice Cream, where Adam Richman of the Travel Channel show "Man v. Food" had once attempted the Big Ugly Challenge.
They each ordered a Big Ugly Burger, consisting of a 22oz patty and a huge bun brushed with a full stick of butter. The reward for those who complete this monstrosity? His or her picture posted on the wall for a full year. Yeah, that's definitely worth a ruptured gut.
I finished my "Not So Ugly" burger, and then waited with anticipation to see which of my darling children would finish their sandwich first. The excitement mounted with each nauseating bite. They had been training for years, and were eager to have their pictures on "the wall."
With only a few bites left, son started looking a bit gray. He excused himself from the table while his younger sister continued eating. And eating. And eating. A cheering crowd gathered, watching in amazement as this blonde beauty took a deep breath and shoved the final bite into her mouth. The waitress pulled out the Polaroid, and pride swelled from deep within my heart. Tucking one thumb into my belt loop, I raised a greasy onion ring into the air and shouted, "That's ma baby gurl!"

Has anyone Ever heard of JS Guide Service in the Harrisburg area?
Were are they located and what all do they guide for?
I was told about this guide service and NEVER Heard of them and I am from the Harrisburg area.
All the person could tell me was he was thinking of booking a Duck and Goose hunt with them, wasn't sure of the location, just knew they were in Harrisburg.
If it was me and I was planning of booking a hunt with a Guide Service, I'd be doing some research and not just booking because someone told me about it!

Interview: Magrudergrind Talk Touring, New Material, and Street Art
D.C. natives Magrudergrind have been pummeling their brand of grindcore across the globe since forming in 2002. However, the trio are about to embark on a tour through more familiar haunts, up and down the East Coast, alongside Despise You. Right before heading out on the road, frontman Avi Kulawy spoke to Revolver about the tour, how the D.C. music scene has changed, and their passion for street art.
REVOLVER You've recently done a bunch of shows over in Europe. What are you looking forward to most about touring the East Coast again?
AVI KULAWY Seeing all our friends up and down the coast. We haven't played Florida in years and I'm really excited for this. Stoked to hit up the beach down there and also stoked to eat some good Carolina BBQ.
What should people expect at your upcoming shows with Despise You?
Expect it to be rowdy. The "grind entourage" is gonna bring the brutality in the form of noise and party.
You will be playing with a lot of other cool bands at various dates. What bands are you looking forward to playing with most and why?
There are so many… I'm really eager to play with Floor and Suppression in their respective hometowns, Florida and Richmond. Getting the chance to see these bands jam in the home-turf is going to be epic. We're also playing with a bunch of our friend's bands including Shitstorm, Defeatist, Asshole Parade, Backslider, Cannabis Corpse, Callous, Primate, Cellgraft, Man Will Destroy Himself, Draize, etc. Looking forward to seeing all of them.
Are you working on any new music?
We're writing new material for our next full-length record. It's coming along relatively slow, but moving forward nonetheless. Since I moved to Brooklyn and we all picked up concentrating on the other parts of lives when we're not touring, writing has become somewhat complicated. That said, we're hoping to further marginalize ourselves with it sometime in 2012.
Since you're back in a home mindset, how have you seen D.C. change—musically or otherwise—since you started up?
As I previously mentioned, Brooklyn is my home now. But that makes this question more relevant because when I go back to D.C. I can track the changes more so than others who live there though. Aside from the endless supply of straightedge hardcore bands and false activism, the scene is changing as a result of the venue supplies diminishing. The D.C. area is about to lose, in my skewed opinion, one of the most important houses that has hosted shows in the area for some years. The Corpse Fortress in Silver Spring, Maryland, right outside D.C., is a venue that has hosted tons of touring bands from an extremely eclectic mix of genres. Many of my friends have lived, and still do live, there over the years. Magrudergrind has played there and they have had some of the craziest parties I can remember. It's very unfortunate because this is yet another important asset being plucked from the already acute D.I.Y. music scene in the city. There are less and less small-scaled, D.I.Y. spots for bands to play and this is detrimental to keeping the D.I.Y. scene thriving.
Graffiti has always been a big part of Magrudergrind's ethos. Have you gone "heavy bombing" lately?
I have not painted in some years. Graff and street art are as much an element of our music as the hip-hop samples we use. We all love hip-hop culture. By using imagery, samples, and lyrics we convey this interest in our aesthetic.

Why is my dog acting distant during her heat cycle?
My dog is 2 years old and going into her 3rd week of her heat cycle and her behavior is more distant towards myself. If I come near her she begins shaking or doesn't listen to my commands. This is very odd behavior for her, she is usually obedient and very friendly. I'm wondering if this is her hormones reacting, because when she is around my male friends she is full of life. I have not taken her to the vet either.

- Cast your vote for which answer you think is best!
Are you a man? Woman? If you're a woman, you probably have a pretty good idea why your dog (bitch, really) is distant!
While dogs certainly have a very different mental experience to humans, we likely both experience hormones in a similar way. Your bitch is probably very distracted right now, either with discomfort or with the need to couple. If you're sure her behavior is tied to her heat-- meaning you can find no other physical issues with her-- then you should probably just wait it out before you become concerned. Of course, you can take her to a vet and be sure, as she may be having another problem which is unrelated to the heat.
That being said, your bitch is now 2 years old and done growing. If she's having a issues going through heats, and *especially* if you have no plans to breed her, is there a reason you don't have her spayed? It will resolve the heat issue, making both of you more happy, and will prevent unwanted puppies and stabilize her behavior.

Community fundraiser hosted by Aurora Theater Shooting victim & family
FLORENCE, Colo. - A year after the deadly shooting in an Aurora theater that killed 12 people, one of the victims is focusing on helping others.
Caleb Medley and his family are paying it forward.
Medley was one of 70 people injured when a gunman opened fire during the midnight premier of "The Dark Knight Rises" on July 20, 2012. Twelve people were killed.
Saturday's fundraiser at Florence High School raised money for the Fremont County Victim Advocacy Program and Black Forest Fire relief efforts.
The fundraiser included live music, comedians, and a silent auction.
The Medley family wanted to thank first responders and firefighters.
Medley stayed close to friends and family during the event and did not talk to the media about the event or his recovery.
Many people showed up to say hello to Caleb and offer him support.
"After what he has survived and what he has gone through and what he is still facing every day I just think it's wonderful that he and his family have come together to support others who are suffering even less than he is at this time," said Marge Tozier.
The Medleys said they plan on turning the fundraiser into an annual event.

Meet the Owners: ExperiencePlus! Bicycle Tours
In 2008 Monica and Maria Elena Price bought the bicycle tour company their parents began in 1972 as Bike Across Italy. After working and cycling the world as bicycle tour leaders and as daughters of two bicycle tour and travel enthusiasts they felt it was time to follow their own passion for travel, bicycles and people. In 2011 Maria Elena and Monica were honored to be named 2 of the Top 10 Guides in the world by National Geographic Traveler.
Monica Malpezzi-Price
Monica is co-owner and Director of International Operations. She's grown up living a trans-Atlantic life between the US and Europe, spending her high school years between Fort Collins, Colorado and Italy in the summer, Eugene, Oregon and Italy during her undergraduate years and Washington D.C. and Italy during her graduate school years. She's grown up leading bike tours in the summers since the age of 15 and now lives in Faenza, Italy in north-central Italy. Other travel experiences throughout the years have include, France as a post-high school exchange student, India and Ghana for a semester each during university, and numerous countries traveled (by bicycle and not). Monica has a B.A. in Anthropology and a M.S. in Development Management and, although not following her studies exactly, she's happy to be putting all of her travels, study and work experience to use in designing, managing and operating the bicycle tour business. Indeed, Monica continues to believe that bicycle travel is the best way to see the world! You can email her at: monica[at]experienceplus.com.
Favorite tour:
"I don't have a favorite tour because every tour is so different—spectacular scenery and Austrian culture in the Dolomites, cloud forests and beaches in Costa Rica, fantastic food and wine in Piedmont—it depends what you want. But if you ask me why I like our Venice to Florence or Venice to Pisa tour, I have an answer. I think that tour provides a complete experience of northern Italy: while you travel through important art cities of Italy like Venice, Ravenna, Florence, Lucca and Pisa, you also see a side of rural Italy that most tourists don't see. We bike through farmland and villages, meet local cyclists out for their afternoon ride, and all the while eat some of the best pasta that Italy produces. This tour really introduces Italy, and I never get tired of leading it!"

Maria Elena Malpezzi-Price
Maria Elena is likely one of the most experienced bicycle tour guides out there 'M.E.' started her bicycle tour leading experiences as a 5 year old, helping translate ice cream flavors on our first Venice to Pisa tours.

Favorite tour:
"We are often asked this question, and I always say. "It depends on what you'd like to experience." But if I had to pick one very special tour, it would be the Camino de Santiago, from Roncesvalles to Santiago de Compostela. Of all my "favorites," this tour has just enough of everything you could possibly want in a bicycle tour: history, food, great routes and interesting people. There are few routes in the world where you bicycle or walk by 20 people speaking 5 different languages! Throughout history the Camino was a corridor that connected Europe. More recently it has become a path shared by thousands of people every year—exploring as they travel towards Santiago. You'll find extraordinary cuisine, history, landscapes and great bicycling on many of our tours—but this particular one has just the right amount of all of these elements to make it extra special!"
