Personally I like heavy pistols very much but those cost a lot of money where I live so I stick to cheaper options like Glocks, XDm's etc. Those are proven over time and can't go wrong with them. Regarding the safety issue with Glocks, you have to know when you have a bullet in your chamber, as with every gun. All the rest is dry firing. Glock 19 sounds like what you're looking for.

This young group emerged out of the Portland music scene in the mid- to late '90s, performing traditional string band music influenced by artists such as Charlie Poole, Clarence Ashley, Bill Monroe, and Uncle Dave Macon. It was an era when many famous country artists were considered over-the-hill by big labels, meaning performers such as Johnny Cash, Merle Haggard, and Dolly Parton were forced to record on indie labels, sometimes companies associated with punk music. The Dickel Brothers also went with this seemingly unlikely alliance, putting out their first CD on Empty records, a small label specializing in punk rock. One might not imagine that bicycle messengers might make up a hefty portion of either audience, but this was what crossed the mind of one of the label's owners when he saw the Dickels going over like gangbusters in a little bar packed with an audience consisting mostly the aforementioned peddling messengers. The label already felt this was a big part of the audience for their punk releases, so why not sell them old-time music, since they seemed to like it already? The hunch paid off, as the group's first release in 1999 did well enough to prompt the label to schedule a follow up the next year. Old-time music is full of family bands, but in the case of the Dickels the relationship is simply a gimmick, and the players are keeping their real names and real relationships something of a secret. The members of the group were drawn to old-time music because of its intense energy and sincere passion, as opposed to the rock music they had grown up listening to. The group started out as a duo, slowly adding and subtracting members until settling on a quintet lineup. All the members are in their mid-twenties and are enthusiastic collectors of old-time music.

My POS Lancer was totaled a little over a week ago (luckily no injuries) and while car shopping I instantly fell in love with the WRX. I ended up finding a dealer that had the EXACT WRX Premium I was configuring online incoming. After some negotiations I ended up putting money down on it. I'm so freaking excited that I'm not only getting the exact color and options I wanted but also will have it before it gets beat on during test drives . Sadly, I'm being told that despite being listed as "in the port" on 8/1, it'll still be at least a week before it arrives . Unfortunately, this also means extending my rental car about a week past when the insurance stops paying for it .
It's a 2013 WR Blue Pearl 5-Door WRX Premium with short-throw shifter.
Prior to the Lancer I had the following:
2003 Passat 1.8T
1994 BMW 325iS
1996 Mustang Cobra
1993 Camaro Z28 (running mid-12's 1/4 mile)
So needless to say I had been itching for a fun car again but also needed something practical for driving 2 kids around from time to time.

9-Year-Old Dies After Being Shot At Church Event - Charlotte News Story - WSOC Charlotte
STANLY CO., N.C. -- A 9-year-old boy was shot and killed when he was struck by a stray bullet at a church event.
The Camp Meeting is held once a year at the AME Zion Church in Cottonville, which is in Stanly County. Organizers said it's typically a family event, but when more than 2,000 people showed up late Saturday, things got out of control.
Onlookers said several fights broke out and one of those fights ended in gunfire just after midnight Sunday.
"There was some more commotion, then I heard gunshots and I was just gone. We just ran," said Kristy Davis.
Stanly County sheriff's deputies say the 9-year-old, who's name hasn't been released, was hiding behind a food vendor stand when he was shot.
Authorities said the boy is from Wadesboro.
Deputies said there have identified several persons of interest and suspects, but have not made any arrests. Investigators said the bullet came from a .38-caliber gun.
Many people at the event said they would have liked to see more security or metal detectors. Organizers of the event said they'll make considerations for changes next year.
If you have any information about the shooting, call the Stanly County Sheriff's Office at 704-982-0711.

Very sad.
His family must be devistated.
ALWAYS carry! - NEVER tell!
"A superior Operator is best defined as someone who uses his superior
judgement to keep himself out of situations that would require a display of his
superior skills."
Senseless. Sad indeed......but at a church event? Fights broke out?It always seems to be too late. After this tragedy, I personally think they should forget about next year's ordeal and try bingo or something. Most of the proceeds could go to the boy's family.Organizers of the event said they'll make considerations for changes next year.
That was awfully 'Christian' of that loser to open fire after getting into/starting a fight at a family event like a camp meeting.
Terriable, tragic, senseless.
My question is what (or why) would metal detectors and security be needed at a camp meeting? Saving souls and hearing God's word ..........
At an 'open' event like a camp meeting I'd want to be armed if this is the atmosphere of that particular event.
Prayers go out to hi family GOD BLESS
I've been telling people for years that there's NO SAFE PLACE in America anymore.
When I was a kid our "youth minister" had the good sense to take the "youth group" out bowling Friday night at Midnight. A fight between bikers spilled out of the bar area and bikers were running around ON THE LANES throwing bowling balls at each other and waving knives. Nobody was stabbed that I saw but lots of threats, beatings, and foul language. Some of us could have easily gotten hurt.
Some "youth ministers" are little more than immature 20 yr olds who have less sense than their students. Parents need to stay on top of where the "church" is taking their kids because the activities and places may not always make good sense.
The key item of this story is not that there were BGs amongst the events midst but the following statement; "...When more than 2,000 people showed up late Saturday, things got out of control.".
That tells all.
Two thousand people.
Even a person with no formal education can do the math on the odds with a number that large that a percentage of random persons to show will be criminally associated if not criminally minded.
"Many people at the event said they would have liked to see more security or metal detectors. Organizers of the event said they'll make considerations for changes next year."
Which means there was no security and the organizers as well as attendees assumed that all would be good seeing as it's a church event, and upon seeing as many people on site they didn't think about event safety and maybe asking people to leave, shutting things down, or in this case the childs parent thinking hey this is getting to be a bit much and is larger than _I_ expected maybe we should call it a fun day and pack up to go home for the sake of my childs if not my own well being.
To understand the scale of what 2K people is below is a picture taken of the twon center at Springfield, VT during the release of The Simpsons movie. The pic shows just a section of the total two thousand attendees...
"Around 2,000 people waited in the town square to see the yellow carpet, after their town won a contest to host the premiere."

WOOSTER -- With a chance to win the game against Ohio Wesleyan, The College of Wooster men's basketball had two good looks, but couldn't convert on either.
Now they'll miss their view looking down on the rest of the conference as well.
The Battling Bishops rallied for a 62-60 victory over the Fighting Scots Wednesday, marking the first time Wooster (15-3, 9-2 North Coast Athletic Conference) has lost back-to-back conference games since Dec. 7 and 10, 2011, when it fell to Wittenberg and Wabash. With the victory, the Battling Bishops (15-3, 9-2) pull into a four-way tie for first after DePauw (14-4, 9-2) edged Denison 68-63 and Wittenberg (15-3, 9-2) routed Wabash 70-50.
The setback means Wooster will be in a dogfight the rest of the way to clinch its ninth NCAC regular season title in 10 years. Meanwhile, Ohio Wesleyan is still in contention for its first championship in coach Mike DeWitt's 15-year tenure -- a loss likely would have eliminated the Bishops from the race.
"Any time you win on the road in this conference," said DeWitt, "it's difficult, but especially against Wooster, which has dominated the league. There's still a long way to go, so anything can happen."
Trailing 62-60, the Scots had the ball with 21 seconds left. Scott Purcell missed an open look from the left corner with 8 ticks on the clock, but Xavier Brown corralled the offensive rebound and fired the ball to Doug Thorpe, who finished with 21 points, at the top of the key. Thorpe pump-faked and forced the Bishop defender off balance, but the 5-foot-9 senior's trey rattled in and out to secure the OWU victory.
"They were good shots," said Wooster coach Steve Moore. "We were pleased we had good shooters taking open shots."
With less than a minute to go, the Bishops took their first lead since the opening 4 minutes of the contest after a jumper by Reuel
Rogers made it 61-60, and after being fouled by Dan Fanelly, the 6-7 senior swished the free throw with 45 seconds left for the 62-60 advantage. On the ensuing possession, Thorpe's 3-point attempt was blocked by Dre White with 30 seconds left, but then OWU's Taylor Rieger missed the front end of a one-and-one to give the Scots one last possession.
Earlier in the period, Brown's 3-pointer made it 57-47 with just over 6 minutes to go, but from there the Bishops closed the game on a 15-3 run. Dre White immediately answered with a trey of his own to cut the deficit to seven, and then later corralled a tip-in to make it 57-52. Two more jumpers by Rogers made it 57-56 until another 3-pointer by Brown with 2:45 left. After that point, the Scots were held scoreless, with another 3 by White and then Rogers' winning jumper proving to be the difference.
DeWitt said the Bishops don't usually look to score in the paint, but took advantage of their size inside with Rogers, who posted game-highs in points (21) and rebounds (13).
"We're usually perimeter-oriented," DeWitt said, "and our guys did a good job finding him. He was a man inside and that and-one he had to finally give us the lead was huge."
The turning point may have been when the Bishops switched to their 2-3 zone midway through the first half. Up to that point, the Scots had scored 27 points in the first 11 minutes and led 27-18. After OWU switched up its defense, though, Wooster scored only 33 points in the final 29 minutes and shot only 37 percent from the floor for the game.
"The key was when we went to that 2-3 zone and it worked," DeWitt said. "There's nothing magical about it. Wooster missed some shots they usually make. You try to take Wooster out of its rhythm and maybe it worked -- maybe it didn't -- but they didn't hit as many shots as they hit in the first 10 minutes."
"It slowed us down some," said Moore. "We had some good looks, but we didn't score against it as efficiently as we would have liked."
The Scots remain in first place with the loss, but will have a much more difficult road to the regular season crown after losing two games in the standings in five days. At the very least, it certainly doesn't look like the Scots will cruise to another title.

Decision makers
- I want to petition Mayor Wes Perry
I want to try to slowly increase the funding for special needs classes.
I am doing this petition for my younger brother, who was born with high functioning autism, and other children who have been deemed special needs children. I may be in middle school, but this is worth fighting for. There are 4 special needs students at my school, and dozens in the district. No one seems to realize that they are just like everyone else and that they need less funds than a normal class, which isn't true. They need the same and a little extra. Help me bring extra funds to Midland Independent School District's special needs classes. All the parents with special kids understand this need. This is my first step. Eventually I will petition Pres. Obama or the one after him for national change. I'm fighting for those kids with no representation. Will you join me?

Posts Tagged 'glass pipe'
Part of what we love to do at The Glass House is help you find THE piece – the one that will be your favorite for years to come. Come in to the shop and we are happy to talk you through selection, but this is a great place to start. In our last post, we looked at which pieces work best based on your smoking habits. To make a wise investment, it's important to take into consideration where and how often you smoke. If you missed it, feel free to catch up here.
The other important factor to consider is what you like to smoke.
If you prefer flower…
Glass pipes or water pipes are your obvious choices, and bubblers are a nice medium. Like we discussed last time, a water pipe will cool the smoke the most out of these options and will be more beneficial to your lungs and pack more of a punch.
If you prefer flower and are interested in vaporizing rather than smoking, you have a few options. The following are just a few examples engineered specifically for flower, so they are generally more likely to provide the quality of vapor you want than a "one-size-fits-all" sort of vape.
- VaporBrothers Hands Free – tabletop vaporizer for flower
- Da Buddha – tabletop vaporizer for flower
- Arizer Solo – portable vaporizer for flower
- Pax – portable vaporizer for flower
If you prefer essential oils and/or concentrates…
The potency of essential oils and concentrates is undeniable. They may be tough to get your hands on and more work to make, but many would argue they're worth the extra effort. In this case, you want either an oil rig or a vaporizer. We cover oil rigs in our Dabbing 101 post, so check it out!
Most vapes do really well with essential oils, even those engineered for multiple types of product. The Cloud is an example of a portable vaporizer that can only be used with oils, but the following are pieces that can be used with flowers, oil, or concentrates. If you like to switch off, these would be perfect options for you. Remember when using herbs with these, it's important to make sure they are finely ground.
- DaVinci – portable
- Atmos Raw – portable
- Extreme Q – tabletop
- Volcano – tabletop
- Plenty – tabletop
We hope this helps you when you're considering investing in a piece, whether it's your first or fiftieth! Stop by the shop anytime and we'll talk you through it.
Everyone has a different first-time smoking experience, but 9 times out of 10, it happens with someone else. Maybe you have a friend who has a water pipe, and they teach you how to use it. Eventually, though, you give in and you want your own. Then, the inevitable question…which piece is right for me? Glass pipe? Water Pipe? Bubbler? Oil Rig? Vaporizer pen? Tabletop vaporizer? …All of the above?
So many options! Lucky for you, whether you're a seasoned smoker or brand new, we're here to help.
First, and most importantly, consider your habits. How often do you smoke? Where do you smoke? And where and how often do you want to smoke?
If you're an occasional smoker who lives alone, with roommates who don't mind it, or with neighbors who aren't too nosey, a glass pipe is an inexpensive and effective investment. It's the simplest method – pack it, light it up, and smoke it. It gets the job done.
Unfortunately, a regular glass pipe does nothing to soften the smoke as it enters your lungs. If you smoke more often than once or twice a week (or even if you smoke less), it may be beneficial to pick up a bubbler or a water pipe. The water cuts the smoke, causing less discomfort to your lungs. Plus, the effects of smoking through a water pipe are undeniably powerful.
However, if you need to be a bit more discreet with your smoking, a pipe isn't going to do the trick. In this case, a vaporizer is definitely the piece for you. With a vaporizer of any size, scent won't give you away. A pen is more discreet for obvious reasons – you can stash it just about anywhere, and you can bring it just about anywhere. Do you want to smoke at the movies, or on a road trip? A pen will give you the flexibility you need. If you don't plan to travel with it, then a tabletop will be much more potent.
A vaporizer is also a good option if you smoke on the reg. The vapor is much healthier for your lungs than smoke, even if the smoke is cut by water in a bubbler or water pipe.
We'll continue this series next week when we talk about the best piece for what you smoke…but in the meantime, come visit us and let us help you choose one in person!
Also, share with us on Facebook – what was your very first piece?
With a name like Prometheus, the Prometheus Pipe by PYP TEK better be indestructible! It truly is the best of both worlds – clean hits of glass and toughness of metal – and so it can withstand more than your average glass. Especially if you like to carry your pipe with you, or if you've had a bad/embarrassing experience with a broken bowl, the Prometheus Pipe provides a high level of durability.
Let's back up – what exactly is the Prometheus Pipe? It's a high grade borosilicate glass pipe covered in an anodized aircraft-grade aluminum exoskeleton, which comes apart to allow for easy cleaning and replacement of parts. Vertical metal screen placement prevents inhaling debris and/or embers, and it's protected from the lighter flame for purer taste.
The Prometheus Pipe comes in five colors – black, blue, green, purple and red – and two sizes. The Prometheus Titan is six inches long and provides more room (two inches in diameter, to be exact) around the glass bowl, while the Prometheus Pocket is four inches long. So, you can choose the piece that fits your smoking needs and preferences. An added bonus is that PYP TEK also makes oil kits, so you can easily turn your pipe into an oil vaporizer. Everything you could ever want in one pipe!
Included with the Prometheus…
- Prometheus Pipe, either Titan or Pocket
- 2-Piece Acrylic Grinder
- Mini Amber Glass Storage Jar
- 3 Replacement Screens
- 3 O-Rings
Have questions, comments or embarrassing stories about why you need a more durable pipe? You know where to find us!

Paducah Mayor Gayle Kaler spoke with Sen. Mitch McConnell this past week to try to keep the city's USPS Carrier Annex, which is scheduled to close next year along with 81 other mail processing centers in a cost-saving consolidation.
Although the mayor believes preventing the Paducah consolidation is unlikely, she said it is worth the effort.
"We might not be successful, but we can't just stand back and let things happen," she said. "They've already begun the process, so why would they make an exception for us? But we have to try."
The U. S. Postal Service, which receives no taxpayer funding for operating costs, recorded $26 billion in financial losses over the past three years.
To prevent further loss, the Postal Service Board of Governors has approved the consolidation of mail processing facilities across the country. They include several facilities in Kentucky, including Paducah, Lexington, Ashland, Bowling Green, Campton, Elizabethtown, Hazard, London, Owensboro, Pikeville and Somerset.
The U.S. Postal Service says it's working to make the transition as smooth as possible.
"We're in a tough position," said David Walton, a spokesman in Louisville for the Kentuckiana District of the U.S. Postal Service. "The value of first-class mail has been dropping. It used to be the product we made the most money from, but now people use the Internet or the phone for paying bills."
Walton said the consolidation will not affect standard mail services, but only first-class mail and periodicals mail that the centers process, increasing the average amount of time for delivery of first-class and periodicals mail just slightly from 2.14 days to 2.25 days. Mail for Paducah will be sorted at a facility in Evansville, Indiana.
"There is an excess capacity," he said. "We no longer need these facilities."
About 15,000 employees - 43 of whom belong to Paducah's facility - will be affected by the "network rationalization."
Paducah's consolidation will save $2.1 million in its first year and $2.6 million every year afterward, Walton said.
It is projected that the completed consolidations overall will save more than $3.5 billion in the next five years.
Elected officials in several cities are still hoping to reverse consolidation decisions.
Lexington Mayor Jim Gray said last week that he "will again ask our congressional delegation to do everything they can to keep this facility in Lexington" after receiving much local opposition to the consolidation.
Paducah city officials, however, say they have not heard much backlash from the public.
"We have not had a lot of calls about it, but of course we're very concerned," said Sandra Wilson, president of the Paducah Area Chamber of Commerce. "One thing of course is the loss of jobs. Another thing is that Paducah really is a regional business hub for western Kentucky, so to divert that mail out of state is a huge concern for businesses in our area."
Upon hearing of Lexington's push to keep its processing center, Wilson believes Paducah should continue to do the same.
"I think any time we are going to be impacted by the loss of jobs and business, it is something that we should be concerned about. We have over 900 business members at the Chamber of Commerce that send out a lot of mail every day, in addition to other businesses in Paducah. We hate to see a loss of jobs and the loss of that service," she said.
Kaler also said she hasn't received much negative feedback "as far as emails or phone calls," but she will continue efforts to keep the local mail operation.
"As a local government, we don't have a lot of power, but we have a working relationship with people in Washington," she said. "We have found that working together as a group, you do have a lot of power. We asked Sen. McConnell to talk with the committee in Washington. All you can do is keep trying. In my opinion, it would be very devastating for our community."

Title: Postal Service Losing Jobs
I find it interesting that one major reason the Postal Service is reducing positions is due to the fact that Congress voted to require the USPS to pay expected retirement/pension costs forward for 75 years. No other business is required to do that. Of course Senator McConnell supported the move. Ironic that he is now "getting involved" here at election time!

40 Greatest Aussie Fights
By Ray Wheatley — World of Boxing
Australian boxing publication "The Greatest" was distributed throughout Australia this week and leading boxing scribe from "Down Under," Grantlee Kieza lists the best performances by Aussie fighters. What is the greatest performance by an Australian boxer? The debate was again sparked when Danny Green stopped boxing legend Roy Jones Jr in December 2009 and Daniel Geale's recent demolition of former world champion Roman Karmazin.
Since boxing gloves started being used in 1884 we have had some cracking performances. Just as we did when we rated the top 50 Australian boxers of all time we decided to ask ward winning journalist Grantlee Kieza to list the top 40 performances by Aussie boxers.
Grantlee has covered boxing for Australia's biggest newspaper group for 30 years, he wrote the definitive book on the history of Australian boxing, the definitive television documentary and has been involved in every Australian boxing publication spanning four decades. He was in the corner of many of Australia's greats as Johnny Lewis' right hand man and has interviewed world heavyweight champions from Max Schmelling to the giant Russian Nikolai Valuev. He was once smashed into a steel dressing room locker by a playful Mike Tyson.
We find it tough to argue with his selections. Why did he rate Jimmy Carruthers win over Vic Toweel as the No. 1 performance?
"Back in the 50's there were only eight weight divisions and one champion per weight division," Kieza said. " Jimmy flew halfway around the world, which was a big thing in itself 60 years ago and took on the undefeated, undisputed world champ in his own backyard – not only before a huge crowd of South Africans in a football stadium but also the high altitude of Johannesburg where many athletes have been brought undone by breathing problems…His victory was one of the most shocking and one-sided in the whole history of the sport."
Some great champs missed out on our top final 40. Try as we might we could not find room for Nedal "Skinny" Hussein dropping Manny Pacquiao, Jimmy Kelso whipping Al Foreman, Jeff Fenech winning his third world title against Victor Callejas, Kostya Tszyu pounding Miguel Angel Gonzalez or Sakio Bika winning the Contender series against Jadon Codrington or manhandling Markus Beyer and giving Joe Calzaghe fits.
The top 40 Grantlee has selected will take some beating.

Some more vintage patchwork
I cut the fabrics last night for the wonky star, (I used this tutorial) and I sewed it together in no time this afternoon. It looks complicated, but it was really easy and I love the finished effect. I also like wonky, wonky is good!
I've used some more vintage fabrics, along with some other 'blues' that were in my stash. A very pretty combination I think.
I've quilted the cushion through the star only, I did it freehand which also meant a much quicker process (no re-positioning masking tape after each line!). I saw a star cushion quilted this way on 'A Moment of Whimsy' and filed it away in my head to try one day!
I backed the cushion with some natural coloured calico and made a hidden zip fastening at the top.
I really love this cushion, and I've really surprised myself.....why?....because it's BLUE. I'm a pink person, pink and girly, but when putting the fabrics together for this cushion I tried to look beyond my 'favourites'. I still chose what I thought was pretty, and of course it's still 'girly'. It just goes to show that moving away from your comfort zone, thinking from another angle, can work!
But the question is...do I keep it for myself or see if it will sell??

Hi Rachael!ReplyDelete
The pillow looks great! I like that softer color combination. (I think it was my blog-now I feel famous!)
Beautiful cushion! The blues look lovely together.ReplyDelete
Great cushion, the quilting through the star is really effective.ReplyDelete
That is some impressive 'whipping up'. Just found your blog and enjoying having a look. I am also a stay at home Mom with 2 little ones, busy life but trying to sew a little here and there. Thx for the inspiration.ReplyDelete
So sweet, I sew during naptimes too! I have never seen a wonky star pattern before, the blues are precious! I am having a PILLOW FIGHT on my blog {contest for charity} and would love it if you would consider joining us! Link below!ReplyDelete

Always wonderful.
By shopaholic
from Bowmanville, Ontario
I have ordered these items in the past, except for the concealer. Love them, all of them. The concealer is great too. The eye mask is a must and the line fill is wonderful. I have been using Skinn products for years and would highly recommend Skinn to anyone looking for a great skin care line.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
The Best Eye concealer
By Wendy
from Manitoba
Love this eye concealer and mask. I don't use the filler because it doesn't seem to stay on my skin. The eye concealer is the best I have used yet. You sweep it on then pat it in. It doesn't cake and leaves the under eye smooth and silky all day.I give the concealer and mask a 5 star but gave a 4 because of the filler in this kit The mask is also wonderful for removing little bumps under the eye area and I also use it on my upper lip lines as an exfoliant

Too little product
By saicha
from Bainsville, ON
The eye mask really works and the concealer covered my dark circles. I did not use the tiny jar of wrinkle fill because I've tried it before and it does nothing for me. However, I returned the kit for 2 reasons: I was again disappointed by D'mitri's "false bottom" jar containing the mask (always a letdown), and the tiny sizes of the products themselves - they are actually smaller than travel-sized. With the added tax and shipping costs, this kit is too expensive for me. I doubt I'll buy any more SKINN products, which is a shame because they are good.
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Budgeting and Planning: Two words that seem to be anathema to many lawyers and firms or, at a minimum, not part of their everyday vocabulary. Throw in "technology" and eyes will glaze over. Arguably, planning and budgeting for technology changes is now more important than ever. While every lawyer and firm should do technology budgeting and planning, too often it does not happen at all.
Has technology budgeting gotten better or worse over the past several years? Does firm size impact whether or not planning and budgeting takes place? When do lawyers and firms replace technology? Who makes that decision? When was the last time a firm bought a new computer, a laptop, tablet or smartphone? What is the timeframe for purchasing these devices in the near future? We'll take a look at data compiled by the ABA Legal Technology Resource Center in the 2013 edition of its Legal Technology Survey Report and see how this new data compares to the results of past surveys.

Jeff Bewkes is going to love this one.
the end of this year, Comcast will launch a new service via its Fancast
website that makes all of its cable content available online on stream.
Just one catch: You have to be a subscriber.
Karen Gilford, senior VP of interactive for the cable provider, told PC World
every cable subscriber will, for no additional charge (for now at
least) get a login and password to watch programs on Fancast. Most
notably, they won't just be cable networks that already stream on their
own website or on Hulu, like Comedy Central and TNT. It looks like it
will include some that don't — even pay channels like HBO. As PC World
notes, "[W]ith its long-standing relationships with virtually all major
video content producers (the networks, HBO, CNN, etc.) [Comcast] is in
a unique relationship to provide a single omnibus video site that has a
broad range of content and a consistent way of viewing it all. Those
relationships might allow Fancast to feature a lot of content that
other online video sites don't have."
The greatest fear of
television executives (besides greenlighting the next "Do Not Disturb")
is that more of us will follow the small but growing number of young
people who cancel their cable/satellite subscriptions and get all their
TV via the Internet, either on a PC or by using one of a number of
devices that put the Web on a TV. With no cable carriage fees and a
fraction of the ad revenue they get on-air, their business models would
be destroyed.
But if you have still subscribe the old-fashioned
way (or with a new-fashioned Internet plan) to get the good stuff,
executives would be fine with it. Then we're just transferring the old
business model onto new technology. Quick and easy. No pain. That's why
Bewkes recently said a model like Comcast's is necessary.
senior television executive recently told me in an interview that he
feels forces (like Bewkes) pushing against online TV and he could
foresee a day when the only free stuff online is promotional clips and
library content. If Comcast's technology works and if consumers take to
it, you've got to wonder whether a lot of television executives won't
be pushing to make that day come faster.
Or will they have to accept that the only way to compete with free piracy is with free, but ad-supported, streaming?


text: Politics 29 June 2011 PMQs sketch: Large without Little Cameron without Clegg Sign up for our weekly email * Print HTML In 20 days time MPs, just back from their Whitsun break, will pack in work for the summer and take two months off. Yesterday many of them appeared to be in training. The benches are normally packed for the weekly bun-fight which masquerades as Prime Ministers Questions, but political ennui if not men's quarter-finals dayat Wimbledon -- and you know how bad the traffic can be there -- appeared to have set in. (And then of course there are the strikes). Even before it began, the whispers went up about the most notable absentee: "Where is he", was being mouthed as fingers pointed towards the Government front bench. It was Large without Little for here was Dave without Nick. We knew they hadn't been getting on and they had said they would send time apart, but seeing it in reality was a shocker. Where Nick normally sat slumped despondently in his seat, sallow-faced waiting for his weekly diet of insults from all sides of the house, including his own, now sat a vision in pink -- the Secretary of State for Wales. In fact, as you looked down the Government benches you saw it as Dave had hoped it would be last May -- just Tories in sight. Even Ken Clarke, still on parole for his continued indiscretions, lounged expansively and awake just out of distance from the Prime Minister. If you stared into the murk you could make out the ghostly figures of Cable and Huhne edging their way towards the exit. Nick, we discovered later, had been sent to Birmingham -- which in these cost-conscious days must be a little bit closer than Coventry . But if Nick is no longer reliable at least Dave knows that his real BF George, aka the Chancellor of the Exchequer, will always be there. And so it was today. The Prime Minister has had such a hard time at PMQs in recent weeks at the hands of Labour leader, Ed Miliband, that George positions himself as if prepared to rugby tackle Dave if he tries to do a runner. Ed has developed a neat technique of swotting up on some of the more mathematical details of Government policies and demanding the haples PM answer them. This technique of course goes against the historical grain of PMQs when questions could be safely ignored and answers given to things you had not asked about. After all, it's not called Prime Ministers Answers. Ed has managed to bring out the bully in Dave through this approach, causing concern on the Tory side at the ease with which their leader can be wound up. To this end George is stationed by his side to provide comfort, backbone, and pass on any facts he manages to pick up from his Cabinet chums in the brief periods of respite from Ed's attempts to poke his eye out. And so the stage was set yesterday for another mauling and Dave looked out of sorts even before Ed got to his feet..... but then it all went a bit wrong, maybe this time for Ed. With 750,000 voters due out on strike tomorrow Dave knew he was in for a hard time and decided to kick off PMQs with a restatement of his "no need for strikes" position, which met with ritual baying from his side of the house. Ed shot to his feet and straight into a detailed question of redundancies in the National Health Service. Dave stumbled and flapped, George tightened his grip and Ed was at him again about detail and the NHS. The "crimson tide", as Labour calls Dave 's rapid colour change above the collar, was clearly in evidence as the Prime Minister had no worthwhile reply to this forensic examination. But even as he flustered, a sudden light came on: Ed was not going to mention the strikes, and Dave was off the hook. All week Ed has been polishing up his "squeezed middle" credentials saying the strikes should not go ahead. He re-enforced the message with his own Clause Four moment, or at least Clause Four hint, by talking up cutting back union power in the Party But biting off the hand that feeds you is one thing, but being seen to enjoy it is another entirely -- and so with real deal less than 24 hours away he decided to gamble on having said enough for now. He hopes voters will remember he was against the strike, but the strikers remember he wasn't as against it as Dave. So to the obvious pleasure of the Government benches, and the equally obvious confusion of his own side, he decided to keep schtum. "What the whole country will have noticed is, that at a time when people are worrying about strikes, he can't ask about strikes because he is in the pocket of the trade unions," said the PM, with all the pleasure of someone who has just found a gift horse opposite him with its mouth wide open. There is a by-election tomorrow in the Inverclyde constituency in Scotland where Labour is defending at 14,000 majority -- repeat, 14,000 majority. Friday should be interesting.

The Beckhams, Chelsea Football Club owner Roman Abramovich and Formula One heiress Tamara Ecclestone all own homes in the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea. Renowned for its stucco mega mansions in private roads and exclusive garden squares, properties in W8 sell for an average of £2,771,223.
Discover the UK's top 10 most exclusive postcodes, in reverse order:
Zoopla's annual report reveals the top 10 costliest postcodes are all in London, with house prices in super-prime neighbourhoods averaging between £1.4 million and W8's £2.77 million-plus.
Knightsbridge (SW7) and Chelsea (SW3), both in south-west London, complete the top three, with average house prices sitting above the £2 million mark.
Yet only two postcodes in the top 10 have recorded annual house price growth - Hampstead in NW3 and St John's Wood in NW8 - as an overall slowdown continues to affect London's prime property market.
According to this year's rich list, there are now 10,958 streets in the UK with average property prices above the £1 million mark - and almost half of these (43 per cent) are in London.
Beyond the capital, Surrey is emerging as exclusive commuter territory, with towns such as Virginia Water and Cobham commanding average house prices of £1.2 million and £1.04 million respectively.
Buckinghamshire is home to the third most expensive town, Beaconsfield, but average property prices there are still just shy of the £1 million mark, at £982,660.

Lawrence Hall, of Zoopla, says: "London continues to be the epicentre of the million-pound homes market in Britain. However, our list reveals a number of high-value property areas outside the capital, particularly in Surrey and Buckinghamshire, that are very attractive to professionals seeking to live outside - yet within easy reach of - the city and enjoy low crime rates coupled with good schools."
Nevertheless, the home counties still have a long way to go before catching up with London property prices. The mega mansions and private estates along Kensington Palace Gardens in W8 - the most expensive street in Britain - are worth a staggering £42.6 million - 150 times the national average.

The following article is Dean Treanor's portion of a debate with Professor Richard Epstein during an event on regulatory takings at the Fordham University School of Law moderated by Judge Loretta Preska of the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York. We carried Prof. Epstein's remarks in the last edition of Engage, available here: http://www.fed-soc.org/publications/detail/the-spurious-constitutional-distinction-between-takings-and-regulation.
I would like to start by talking about what the original understanding of the regulatory takings doctrine was, which I think was the first question that Judge Preska asked. The original understanding is, very simply, that there is no regulatory takings doctrine...

He's been a busy boy as of late, and Nick Jonas' latest project finds him hazing fraternity pledges in the preview trailer of "Goat."
The just-released teaser also features James Franco, Daniel Flaherty, Virginia Gardner and Ben Schnetzer, all under the direction of Andrew Neel.
It's not every day that an R-rated CG animated comedy gets a nationwide theatrical release, so "Sausage Party" has already been creating some serious buzz.
It's time for another installment of cinematic craziness from Seth Rogen, and this one's all about wieners on the run.
Sony Pictures Entertainment just unveiled the red band trailer for "Sausage Party," slated to hit theaters August 12th and starring Rogen, Kristen Wiig, Jonah Hill, Salma Hayek, Edward Norton, Michael Cera, James Franco, David Krumholtz, Danny McBride, Paul Rudd, Nick Kroll and Bill Hader.
Believe it or not, James Franco still has the power to shock us all, and on Wednesday (October 28) the "Palo Alto" hunk posted a selfie via Instagram that had his followers' jaws on the floor.
Franco captioned the snapshot, "I heart Hermione," which was an appropriate statement given that he had a tattoo of Emma Watson's face on his neck.
Making the most of their time at the 65th Berlin International Film Festival, James Franco and Nicole Kidman showed up at the photocall for "Queen of the Desert" on Friday (February 6).
Stepping out for an exciting evening, James Franco and Jena Malone showed up at the Opening Night Premiere of "Nobody Wants the Night" at the 65th Berlin Film Festival on Wednesday (February 4).
They're both mighty handsome men, and James Franco and Zachary Quinto aren't afraid to show a little affection in the name of shameless promotion.
Following a $15 million holiday run, "The Interview" has now released one last red band trailer for all to enjoy. The Sony Pictures production was initially pulled from its Christmas Day debut, but ended up opening in independent theaters as well as several VOD options.
As of this week, "The Interview" is now playing in 331 theaters and can be rented or purchased over the internet through iTunes and various other websites.

Purdue-Nebraska Quotes
March 9, 2013
Purdue Quotes
Nebraska Quotes
THE MODERATOR: We're joined by Nebraska Coach Connie Yori and Jordan Hooper and Lindsay Moore. Coach, an opening statement.
COACH YORI: I thought Purdue played really well. Really, they kind of had a lot of the facets of their game going. They got the ball inside on us, and they drove it. They got their transition game going. They hit enough perimeter shots. And the game was decided by what I call the two elephants, and the elephants in the game were rebounding and turnovers. And we didn't really take care of either of those areas and, really, that was costly for us.
THE MODERATOR: Questions for the student athletes.
Q. Lindsey, I think you guys had a couple of chances to get it in the single digits in the second half. What prevented you guys from making a run and were they doing anything specifically?
LINDSEY MOORE: I think we just missed some easy buckets inside. We had good looks at it to break into the single digits, but we just weren't able to connect on it.
Q. Lindsey, was there anything in particular they did against your defense that helped them in the first half, at the end of the first half, and then throughout the second half?
LINDSEY MOORE: I just thought their post play today was really, really excellent. They knew what they wanted to do, and they were able to really do it. They have a good post presence inside with their postups that they have. So I think they just did a really good job of executing that, and playing into their strengths.
Q. KK [Houser] had six steals in this game. How much does her pressure bother you guys in the back court?
JORDAN HOOPER: Well, I mean, it bothers us quite a bit. We can't get the ball advanced up the court, can't really do what we want to do in that facet.
But usually we can set drags between stuff like that and it releases pressure.
LINDSEY MOORE: She did a good job defensively today. She's a risk/reward player, and so she just was able to come up with steals and it was rewarded for her.
Q. Jordan, their playing inside was really strong. What did they do specifically? Is it positioning type of thing or are they just just have skilled big men?
JORDAN HOOPER: I mean, they get pretty deep position on us. We're not as big as physical as they are, and they can pretty much back us down and didn't really have an answer for that tonight.
THE MODERATOR: Thank you. Questions for Coach.
Q. What changes did you make after the first half when they shot like 54 percent? Seems like they shot a lot worse in the second half. Did you change anything or did you just emphasize some stuff?
COACH YORI: Well, we ran some more zone. We ran more zone in the second half early. And but then we still played a lot of man as well as the half wore on.
But we just got we allowed too many easy post touches in the first half. And I thought that was a big key for them shooting the percentage they did.
Q. Coach, the offensive rebounding numbers were pretty similar, but I feel like the rebounds that they got were more impactful, just in bigger situations. Did you feel that way, that they always got the one that matters?
COACH YORI: This is the elephants I'm talking about. The two elephants. Even though the turnovers weren't significantly different, the rebounds, offensive rebounds weren't significantly different, but they cashed in on both of those areas. They were able to, when they turned us over, it led to baskets. When they got offensive rebounds, they were able to shoot a high percentage there.
Q. How did you feel like they adjusted when it was a close game? You guys got out 21 20, how did you feel like they adjusted, or did you guys just not play well in that stretch at the end of the first half?
COACH YORI: Well, I thought they again, I'm kind of going back to they got the ball inside on us too much. They crashed the glass. And we didn't do a good enough job of boxing out. And they got some easy baskets there. And we got taken out of our offense a little bit. We weren't as efficient as we needed to be.
So I just thought Purdue played well. I think that's a big part of it.
THE MODERATOR: Okay. Thank you, Coach.

I am an ecosystem ecologist broadly interested in how human environmental change is affecting ecosystem function and the ability of ecosystems to provide the ecosystem services on which we depend. I study how nutrients cycle in ecosystems and how these cycles impact (or are impacted by) ecosystem restoration, water quality, biodiversity, and climate change. I am also interested in ecosystem service measurement and valuation, and how ecosystem nitrogen and carbon cycling can be included in environmental markets.
Currently I am Research Faculty at the University of Maryland in the Earth System Science Interdisciplinary Center (ESSIC) and Ecosystem Science Adviser for the National Ocean Service at the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA). As such, I am particularly focused on science to support policy and decision making related to improving the sustainability and resilience of coastal communities in the face of climate change.

English Grounded After Limp Israel Performance

Like grounded children, Coach Steve McClaren on Saturday said, "They'll be in this evening" after his England players produced a thoroughly impotent attacking display during its 0-0 Euro 2008 qualifier against Israel in Tel Aviv.

Smartphone Screens Can Now Perform Bloodtests
Qloudlab developed a new tool for people undergoing anticoagulant treatment.
Qloudlab, a startup based in the microengineering laboratory at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology or EPFL, has developed a diagnostic tool that uses a smartphone screen to perform blood tests.
The diagnostic tool was developed for people undergoing anticoagulant treatment. One of the effects of anticoagulants is to limit the formation of blood clots in arteries, veins, and the heart – clots that can block the blood vessels, hinder the flow of oxygen and increase the risk of a stroke or heart attack. Anticoagulant treatment requires patients to undergo regular blood flow monitoring, usually done at a clinic or hospital. Qloudlab's diagnostic tool allows patients to do the tests themselves in their own home.
To perform the blood test, a single-use film made of a very thin microstructured plastic layer is placed on top of the smartphone screen. A drop of blood is introduced into the film through a capillary action and comes in contact with a molecule that initiates coagulation of the blood. An accompanying app analyzes the disruptions in the electric field of the screen and interprets the data to determine whether the owner of the blood is at risk of bleeding. The results of the blood test can then be sent to the person's physician.
Qloudlab founder Arthur Queval said, "Such a test will significantly improve the quality of life for people undergoing this kind of treatment."
Qloudlab is still working on making the test more accurate, but the startup claims it has found a way to make the test work on potentially every smartphone available.
The company filed a patent for the system and has already received funding from Venture Kick. Qloudlab is targeting to commercialize the diagnostic tool by 2015.

We are doing research papers in my English class on controversial issues. My topic is endangered species and we need to present the two different sides of the issue. I am unsure of what two sides I should write about.
Conservationists want to protect endangered species while some other people see no point in interrupting their businesses to save these creatures.
To find information against saving endangered species, you could Google tree hugger.
Apparently tree-hugger has become a complimentary term for conservationists -- so you'll find pro conservationists with that search term.
This article, though, should get you started learning about those who oppose saving endangered species.
Sometimes there are also news stories and other pieces of information that seem to be contradictory. See the articles here for just one example:
I guess it depends on where the counts are taken -- Canada or Alaska or ?
When people are presented with conflicting information, especially from trusted sources, how do they react? (I know that question leads to generalizing, which is not a good idea.) Different people react in different ways.
You might want to explore sources of information regarding particular topics within the conservation field and see what you find. Then see if you can discover how different people react to differing information.

Matthew 28: 18-19
Jesus came and told his disciples, "I have been given all authority in heaven and on earth. Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, Son and the Holy Spirit. Teach these new disciples to obey all commandments I have given you. And be sure of this: I am with you always, even to the end of the age".
UCBC was founded on and in response to a calling to teach the Word of God by using the Bible as a point of reference. The ministry will endeavor to consistently promote the message of Jesus Christ, just as Paul the Apostle through his letters spread the ministry of Jesus Christ after the resurrection.

I think it's definitely important to remember that all the steps are guidelines, not strict rules -- you need to experiment and figure out everything that works or doesn't work for your hair. It's not even always just products that can be a hit or miss -- I was following the CG steps to a T, and it turns out, my hair HATES when I do a leave-in. I only figured it out one day when I was so eager to try a new product I skipped that step.
I think it's also good to bear in mind at the beginning that you need to stick with it. I was really bothered by the idea of not using shampoo and after a week my scalp was smelly and I was ready to give up. But it turns out I wasn't scrubbing enough, I was just conditioning as usual and not actually washing my scalp. I could have ruined the whole thing if I had immediately jumped back into my old bad habits!
Hair type: Fine, fairly porous, shoulder length when curly. Probably a 3a or 3b with tight ringlets now that it's getting longer. Hair loves aloe, hates glycerin.
Co-Wash: Suave Naturals Aloe and Waterlily (my HG conditioner!)
Rinse Out: Garnier Sleek and Shine, Trevor Sorbie curl conditioner (UK only, unfortunately)
Stylers: KCCC, AG Re:coil, TIGI mousse, but open to suggestions!
Gels: BRHG (my one and only)

Bedoon Journalists form a big number in local newspapers. Many bedoon work as editors, producers, camera-men or in montage and graphics. With less chances and lower salaries than those of citizens, Bedoon journalists continued to be part of media in Kuwait with notable performances.
Newspapers started to send them abroad to cover stories; something that did not please the government. The Central Agency decided thus to put Bedoon journalists on hold when it comes to renewing their 'article 17' passports. It is seen that the few good pieces covering Bedoon protests were conducted by Bedoon journalists; one more reason to upset authorities.
Two of the detained Bedoon activists work in media and they are Khalifa Al- Otaibi (Al-youm TV channel) and Bandar Al-Fadhli (Al-Jarida newspaper). However, they face discrimination as they are declinethe right to join the journalists union because they are stateless; something that goes against Human Rights Declaration's article 27.
Bedoon journalists have been covering parliament news for ages but MP Mohammed Al-Juwaihel seems unhappy with that as he submitted an inquiry to Ahmad Al-Saadon, head of Kuwait parliament, on 28th of February regarding access to the parliament given to Bedoon journalists.
Bedoon hold 'special illegal residents IDs,' issued by The Central Agency, as their only Identification method. A note is written on it: card is used for internal use only!

E-book readers to stay pricey next year
Won't hit $100 for ages, says screen supplier
Holding out for a £100 e-book reader before snapping up one of these gadgets for yourself? You may get lucky this year, but don't expect prices to fall any further.
Scott Liu, head of screen maker PVI - the Taiwanese firm that recently bought e-ink pioneer E Ink - forecast today that readers will not drop to hit the $100 (£61/€67) mark in 2010.
The reason: the market's too new and there's just too little competition between e-book reader manufacturers, he said, according to a report by DigiTimes.
In such circumstances, there's little motivation for vendors to slash prices, he said. The upshot: prices will remain around the £200-250 mark for some tome to come. ®

I don't know if sharing this will help you, but I will tell you what happened to me: I used a Garnier semi-permanent colour on my virgin hair, which pretty much dried it to a crisp...and then the following day, I had an accident with the vacuum cleaner ;p I was trying to get under my bed with it, and there was a clump of shed dog hair that it wasn't getting at...I leaned the vacuum cleaner back without shutting it off, and reached under the bed with my arm to grab the dog fur. The vacuum sucked up my hair, which is very long, and it got caught in the beater bar.
I had the presence of mind to switch off the vacuum and get my hair out, but I was freaking!
The beater bar broke my hair - the top surface in the back - right along the whole back of my head. The following day, I was going to a big fancy ball and I had to try and straighten my hair to hide the damage under a low-bun hair do. So that fried my hair even more. I could actually hear my poor hair crackling under the first pass of my Babyliss straightening iron ;p
The result of all that led me here, and since I changed my products for protein free, doing DT's, and started using correct methods (I use supersoaker myself) my dry, broken hair is gradually remoisturizing - but it took me two months to fix it. The broken layer of hair has now taken to curling back in with my other clumps, so it is possible to regrow the damaged parts, and get them to curl in with the others, once your hair is in a healthier, more moisturized place...
Hth. You're not alone ;p
ETA: The Devacurl products worked well in my hair for about a week, then it made my hair fall out in dry clumps! I brought it back to the store, because even if it might be a great product and worked well for others, it just over-protein-ated my hair, I think.
Re-ETA- mine also was no longer curling much after all that naus, but I am now far more of
a 3A than a 2C - and I had slid into 2B when my hair was destroyed by all that ;p
Finer, mixed with coarser strands, low-porosity, wavy curly whirly hair...3A, 2C hair. Medium thickness, medium elasticity.
S-shaped hair with corkscrew ends. My hair is even more confused than me ;p
My hair officially hates protein
Once a month is enough!
Currently a fan of TiGi products, (rock on, TiGi Curlesque styling creme!) but that will soon change - I am a self-avowed product junkie! Yay!
BIG fan of supersoaker method - thanks Rudeechick!

Indian Football Opens Region Play Tonight
The Stephens County Indian football team opens Region 8-AAAA play with a road trip tonight.
Stephens County heads to Walnut Grove to take on the Warriors in the first region game for both teams.
The Indians are looking to bounce back from their first loss of the season last week, a 26-7 defeat at the hands of Hart County that dropped StephensCounty to 2-1 on the season.
Meanwhile, Walnut Grove is 1-2 on the year and looking to win a second game in a row after their 21-9 win over Howard last Friday.
The two teams have met once previously, a 61-20 StephensCounty win at the Reservation last year.
Stephens County Defensive Backs Coach Rocky Fulbright said the Indians will face a Warrior squad that is improved from last year's team.
"They are much better than last year," said Fulbright. "They do about the same things we do on offense. Defensively, they are very aggressive. Their running back is very good."
Kick-off from Walnut Grove tonight is set for 7:30 p.m.
Coverage on AM 630 WNEG begins at 6 p.m. tonight with Tommy Palmer's "Countdown to Kickoff." Coach's Corner starts at 7 p.m. and pre-game coverage from Walnut Grove starts at 7:15 p.m.
In other action around Region 8-AAAA tonight, Monroe Area visits Lumpkin County, Eastside hosts Chestatee, and Lanier travels to take on Madison County.
Elsewhere in northeast Georgia, Habersham Central hosts Mountain View. Meanwhile, Franklin County and Hart County are both off this week.

Hmmm... Buttons, I love buttons. There's even a button on the back fold over section. Ok Jessica, I like these shoes!Added 9 Years Ago from Piper Lime
I love these, love the contrast, love the buttons, love the heel. My boyfriend might get jealous!Added 9 Years Ago from Piper Lime
I dig buttons up the side of shoes, especially boots. The contrasting colors give it a bit of edge. Fun!Added 9 Years Ago from Piper Lime
Okay, you have to realize that these are awesome boots. I love wedge heels.. and there's a non-functional zipper - pro or con? You decide.
I'm a sucker for buttons on boots and these looks wonderously comfy. Comfy and cute? That's a winning combo.

The IQAir HealthPro Plus has been named the 2011 Category Winner for Air Purifiers by AllergyBuyersClub.com.
"Put simply, this manufacturer has done everything right and when the AllergyBuyersClub.com staff are asked to recommend the best air purifier for someone with serious allergy and asthma problems, it is the IQAir first," the online reviewers said.
Rating the IQAir air purifier as a "king among princes," the reviewers noted that the IQAir HyperHEPA filtration system stops particles that standard HEPA filters don't.
"This is very important as lung penetrating particles are smaller than even a regular HEPA filter can capture," the reviewers said.
AllergyBuyersClub.com has been testing air purifiers since 1998. The company is a multi-channel retailer that sells healthy home products such as air purifiers, HEPA vacuum cleaners, dehumidifiers and hypoallergenic bedding.
Earlier this year, The IQAir HealthPro Plus was named the "Best Buy" for home air purifiers in the Premium category by Consumers Digest Magazine.

Thoughts following the 2016 mencken club meeting
To the members of the H.L. Mencken Club:
Our ninth annual gathering went splendidly. We had a record turnout of attendees and for the first time in our history, we found ourselves with more requests to attend than we could accommodate. This was because of the limited space that the hotel was able to provide during the weekend of November 4-6. Next year, we'll try to arrange for a larger meeting space for our stimulating sessions and sumptuous meals.
Our speakers, who discussed the Right in historical perspective, gave excellent presentations; and the audience, as usual, asked provocative questions. I was happy to see that the speakers covered a wide range chronologically, from the distinguished historian Stanley Payne at one side of the age spectrum to a recent Ph.D. recipient at the other end. A debate and discussion on Saturday evening about whether the Right should continue to defend capitalism went on for several hours; and even after I tried to end this lively session, exchanges continued with the panel and later, at a hospitality hour. On Friday evening, we had the additional treat of a Mencken impersonation performed by a Minnesota professor John C. Chalberg. From this performance, we may infer that the presented views of our organization's namesake remain as accurate and relevant now as when they were in the interwar period.
Our organization has moved to a new level of success with this recent gathering. We are blessed with members who come to our meetings regularly, sometimes from Europe or from across the American continent. We are also in a position to attract young scholars and journalists who are interested in our work, and we no longer look as uniformly geriatric as we did two or three years ago. Things have changed in other ways. The H.L. Mencken Club is not what I thought it would become when I expressed my hope to John Derbyshire, Bob Weissberg, and Peter Brimelow about ten years ago. Then, I hoped for a slightly updated restoration of the Philadelphia Society before the neoconservatives took over and reconstructed that organization.
Fortunately, we've found a new niche, as an open forum for thinkers mostly on the Right who can speak without fear of social ostracism and in a spirit of open debate. I used to imagine that Conservatism, inc. had functioned in that manner before it was invaded by interlopers in the 1980s. But that may have been for the most part a romantic fantasy. What I once admired to excess may have been destined to become what it did, a slightly more moderate version of the current American Left showing an equally disturbing allergy to non-conformist speech. Having researched and written on the purges in the conservative movement since the mid-1950s, it is now all too clear to me that the Communist-like intolerance of our current establishment Right was amply present in its predecessor of the 1950s. Our practice of open discussion was far from the rule in organized conservatism even before the neoconservatives and Republican establishment took over.
A journalist from a leftist website who was present at our gathering commented that he was surprised to hear all points of view represented in our discussion of capitalism, "from the far Right to the far Left." I explained that since we are not censored by corporate donors or burdened by members looking for government jobs, we can afford to hold open discussions. It is my fervent hope that this practice will continue to be on display at our future meetings.

Calls for accountability, fairness, and openness have set off phenomenal, irreversible shifts in politics, economics, and culture.
It continues by denouncing the "anti-scientific bias" which treats "non-heterosexual inclinations" as innate and irreversible.
If I had my wish, football would suffer a sudden and irreversible drop in popularity.
This was the year when the printed media crashed with a sudden velocity and with consequences that are irreversible.
We followed the most radical voices in the party and the movement, and they led us to abject and irreversible defeat.
They begin with their main argument, that the acts of councils are irreversible.
But it is as safe to assume that the revolution is irreversible, setbacks aside.

Neither the Tigers or Johnny Damon or his camp would confirm a deal had been done despite numerous reports over the weekend of a deal being complete. The deal was reportedly pending a physical, which Damon reportedly took Sunday in Lakeland.
Damon is expected to bat near the top of the order while sharing time in left field with Carlos Guillen. The two are also expected to see time at designated hitter.
Damon, a career .288 hitter, tied a career high with 24 home runs last season for the Yankees.

|Topic Review (Newest First)
Carburetor Spacer Theory
Spaces and Plenum Dividers
Spacers and plenum dividers provide an easy way to change the configuration of the intake tract and the relationship it has with the carburetor.
Adding a plenum divider to an open plenum manifold will help keep the left to right fuel distribution balanced for oval track applications when the car is in the corners. This is especially helpful on alcohol engines. These dividers usually do not have a measured affect on torque or horsepower.
Using spacers between the carburetor and intake manifold can produce dramatic results. The use of a four hole spacer can improve low end to mid-range by helping the carburetor draw and atomize fuel. An open center spacer increases the plenum area and can benefit the mid-range and upper rpm power. It is not uncommon to see combinations of spacer types or stacking of similar type spacers being used. It is also not uncommon to see results that are totally opposite from the general tendencies. The actual results from any spacer or combination of spacers can only be measured during a test and tune session on the specific engine combination being run.
This information can be a very useful tool when tuning to find the best horsepower or to change the power characteristics to suit a specific track condition.

carb spacers or not.
to be or not to be that is my question?Should I use one.thanks gm.
