I'm sick and tired of this term being used to no end in order to pass any legislation the far left wants. Everything from gun regulation to health care is touted under this and quite frankly I'm sick of it.Originally Posted by The Constitution
The Constitution spells out "the people" "the state" and "the United States" (meaning the federal govt) VERY well. Our forefathers were extremely specific when and where they stated to whom the rights belonged and wrote it in VERY plain English. However, as with everything else, time, ignorance, and repetition by socialists have pushed the true meaning away.
This is a scan of the 1828 edition of Noah Webster's American Dictionary of the English Language on the word welfare. It is a reference from the era of The Constitution.
There is a clear distinction between welfare as applied to persons and states. In The Constitution the word "welfare" is used in the context of states and not persons. The "welfare of the United States" is not the same as the welfare of individuals.
However, our founding fathers, The Constitution itself, and our personal freedoms have been undermined by men, either by choice, or by ignorance as the Supreme Court has ruled that it applied to the people, in agreeance with that two faced underhanded Alexander Hamilton. The Constitution clearly states the "welfare of the United States" NOT the people.
Now the question is how do we stop the continued abuse and destruction of our rights? What do we do? How do we make it stop?
You are absolutly right. A Congress that has hijacked the general welfare clause and an electorate that is risk averse and indoctrinated into socialism is what is destroying this country.-Jay

Electronic reading devices--eReaders--were a popular gift item this holiday season. People have been coming in asking for tips on how to download electronic library books to their new eReaders, and circulation has skyrocketed. Fantastic!
Others have expressed dismay that their brand of eReader won't accept library books. Yes, only the Barnes and Noble Nooks, the Sony Readers, the Kobo eReader, Literati Reader, Pandigital Novel, and Pocketbook Pro accept our OverDrive ebooks.
By the way, the Digital Media catalog also stocks electronic formats for reading on various computers and listening to on a number of audio devices.
One of my favorite librarian bloggers just posted a link to this beginner's guide to electronic formats. I hope it's useful. http://bookbee.net/bee-ginners-guide-2/

Hi, I am of Italian parents and live in London and am married to an Italian. We consider ourselves fortunate to have this lovely villa in Agropoli with the 2 apartments as described which we have pleasure in renting to guests who we hope would thoroughly enjoy the peace and tranquillity and beautiful area that it is situated in. As we live in London we can't guarantee that we will be at the villa ourselves but you will be met at the villa and our representative will show you around and also contact us on the phone to speak with you. There is plenty to see and do and we think it is an ideal base to explore the extensive area and charms this region as to offer. As a bonus, eating out is relatively inexpensive here. Do come to experience this for yourself.

'A town full of independent, individual shops that are brimming with fabulous crafts and creations' – The Lady Magazine
'Talk about a wake up call. When it comes to buzz, most towns should want what Frome is having' – Oxford Mail
Highlighted as one of the 'Best Places to Live in Britain' – The Times
To see other endorsements of Frome in the press click here
Packed to the rafters with artisans, historic buildings, beautiful independent shops and creative people, Frome is a wonderfully vibrant and eventful town. It is the perfect destination for discerning tourists looking for something just a little bit different on visits to Somerset.
Frome is a town with a charming historic centre and has a wealth of architectural interest alongside a thriving contemporary and performing arts scene. Frome is also the original Somerset Market Town, a hugely important destination hosting a thriving market since the time the ink was still wet on The Domesday Book. This tradition continues today with regular markets every Wednesday, Thursday and Saturday.
Then on the first Sunday of each month from March to December, 'The Frome Independent' comes to town. The Frome Independent is a mini festival that takes over the whole town attracting thousands of visitors. It brings together the best artisan food and drink, local artists and designers, local produce, plants, flowers, retro, vintage, collectables, home wares and street entertainment.
Aside from the markets, Frome is full of specialist shops, arts and crafts, antiques and collectibles sitting alongside vintage and unique clothing shops, craft businesses and galleries, the majority of which are independent. Frome is also home to a number of arts and crafts venues and galleries in historic buildings, including The Black Swan, Rook Lane Arts, and the Silk Mill.
Frome has a growing reputation as a hub for creative industries. Many professional craftspeople work from individual workshops with specialities ranging from designer jewellery and textiles to musical instrument makers and artist blacksmiths. It is also home to modern innovative and creative businesses, like 3D printing and new media agencies.
Now known for its community spirit, arts and entertainment, Frome has a number of choirs, a symphony orchestra, a Youth Band, two theatres – the Memorial and Merlin, Westway Cinema and the noted Cheese and Grain, a fantastic live music venue often boasting performances and shows from many a headline act, especially during the Frome Festival and on the lay over from Glastonbury.
Frome hosts a well-established calendar of community events including the 10-day Frome Festival, the Frome and Agricultural Cheese Show, the Carnival and the Frome Christmas Extravaganza, which in 2013 featured the Frome Grand Prix, with local boy Jenson Button returning home to burn up the streets of Frome in his F1 car.

Won't change,wont' chang,won't change
Dropped transmission in 1987 Ford F-150 to replace rear freeze plug. Transmission was reinstalled. Lines reattched and the linkage feels just loose enough, not too tight, but it won't change gears now. What do I need to do?
here's what i would do. now pay attention its very important:
1. get under the car
2. adjust the shift linkage
I need to clarify that the gear box would move from drive,rev and so on, but it will not change under driving conditions. Seems to stay in first. How should the linkage be adjusted. I have tightened and loosened to no avail.
What trans is in it?? C6,AOD E40D?
Make sure you have the vacuum modulator hooked up correctly.
Also check kickdown linkage for proper hook-up and binding.
You can try here for some info.web page :D

Minnesota Apple Growers Expect Bountiful Harvest
UNDATED (AP) – It looks like a good year to be an apple lover in Minnesota.
Apple growers say they're looking forward to an exceptional harvest. It would be welcome news after the previous year, when spring temperature swings killed off many blossoms.
This year's harvest will be about two weeks late thanks to cool, rainy weather in May. But despite the late start, Minnesota's roughly 150 apple growers are expected to produce nearly 20 million pounds of fruit this year. That's up from last year, when overall production was down about 50 percent.
Growers report that this year's apples look to be large and sweet.

This would be what we called in the Old Army a "field expedient".
Outstanding job!
Should be DFCs for this Apache crew.
This is a discussion on Critically wounded soldier evac'd with.. an Apache?!? within the Law Enforcement, Military & Homeland Security Discussion forums, part of the Related Topics category; Source LSA ANACONDA, Iraq Apache pilots from Company B, 1st Battalion, 149th Aviation Regiment (Attack), 36th Combat Aviation Brigade and Company A, 2nd Battalion, 159th ...
SourceLSA ANACONDA, Iraq Apache pilots from Company B, 1st Battalion, 149th Aviation Regiment (Attack), 36th Combat Aviation Brigade and Company A, 2nd Battalion, 159th Aviation Regiment, 12th Combat Aviation Brigade, engaged extremists and saved a critically-wounded Soldiers life during a firefight in Ar Ramadi, Iraq, on June 30, 2007.
Two attack weapons teams (with two AH-64 helicopters making up a team) flew to Ramadi in support of Coalition Forces in search of insurgents and weapons caches.
The teams reached Ramadi and received notice that Coalition Forces were taking heavy small arms fire. To maximize the helicopters time over a potential target, one team immediately went to the Ramadi forward arming and refueling point and the other attack weapons team flew into the fight.
They engaged extremists with 30 millimeter cannon fire neutralizing them. The team then supported other Coalition Forces engaging extremists using two tractor trailers as cover. The crew took small arms fire and multiple enemy rounds to their aircraft.
Despite the small arms fire, the attack weapons team destroyed the tractor trailers, causing secondary explosions, indicating to the crew that the trailers were possibly used as vehicle-born improvised explosive devices.
The crew stayed on station with the Coalition Forces until fuel levels became low, and returned to the FARP to refuel. Due to battle damage sustained, the Apache team performed a battle handoff to the second attack weapons team and flew back to LSA Anaconda.
The second team entered the engagement area in Ramadi. Coalition Forces were still taking heavy enemy fire. The attack weapons team shot hundreds of cannon rounds and rockets, expending their ammunition. As the team returned to the FARP to rearm and refuel, the ground forces commander informed the crews that he was coordinating a medical evacuation of wounded Soldiers including one critically-wounded.
Approximately 40 minutes later, after rearming and refueling, the team went back to the area and learned that the MEDEVAC aircraft had not arrived. Due to the critically-wounded Soldier and despite continued enemy activity, the Company B aviators landed and extracted the critically-wounded casualty with the Apache helicopter. While the Company A crew provided overhead security, the Company B crew landed within two kilometers of the enemy position.
Upon landing, the co-pilot/gunner helped load the injured Soldier into the front seat without further injury. Despite the heavy small arms fire and surface-to-air fire events in the area, the co-pilot/gunner strapped himself onto the left side of the aircraft and hunkered down on the wing. The pilot flew to Camp Ar Ramadi medical pad, where emergency medical personnel provided treatment. The team went back to the fight and continued to provide support for Coalition Forces. Upon neutralizing the extremists, the crew returned to LSA Anaconda.
Due to the extent of the battle damage, one extremists was confirmed killed in action, but multiple extremists were killed in conjunction with ground forces. The wounded Soldier has been transferred to LSA Anaconda and is in stable condition.
Holy crap, this is something you'd expect in a hollywood blockbuster action film. Kudos to the Apache copilot for quite literally risking his neck for a fellow soldier.
Discretion is the better part of valour; and a virtue beyond reproach.

When youre wounded and left on Afghanistans plains,
And the women come out to cut up what remains,
Just roll to your rifle and blow out your brains,
And go to your God like a soldier.

You can't stop our guys from getting the job done. Whether they will admit it or not they are ALL heroes.

They are left in full possession of them."

Well done!
Reminds me of the Little Bird sweeps during the Somalia incident. Those are some heroes out there, every damn one of them willing wearing that uniform, risk those risks, and do it because they chose to.
the copilot strapped himself to the wing.....WOW those guys should get some kind of medal . If you go to the source, theres a video clip on it, The guy just climbs off the wing like no big deal.
Adapt and Overcome. Good Job, Guys.

There are very few things in life more comforting to us ground pounders than seeing an Apache overhead when things are looking rough - now we have one more reason to love them.
A man fires a rifle for many years, and he goes to war. And afterward he turns the rifle in at the armory, and he believes he's finished with the rifle. But no matter what else he might do with his hands - love a woman, build a house, change his son's diaper - his hands remember the rifle.
Here is the video from the point of view of the support Apache.
Amazing... and Bravo for those guys!
You have to make the shot when fire is smoking, people are screaming, dogs are barking, kids are crying and sirens are coming.

Fischer 'allowed' to move to Iceland
Page Tools
Japan will let detained US-born chess legend Bobby Fischer move to Iceland which has granted him citizenship, refusing US demands to extradite him to the United States where he faces prison, news agencies said yesterday.
Jiji Press and Kyodo News said the Japanese justice ministry made the decision after Iceland presented documents showing Fischer was one of its citizens.
Fischer, now 62, was detained in July as he tried to fly out of Japan to the Philippines on an allegedly invalid US passport.
The chess legend, known for his outspoken criticism of the United States, faces 10 years in prison for defying US sanctions on Yugoslavia by playing a game there in 1992 amid the Balkan wars.
The parliament of Iceland, where Fischer played his most famous match in 1972, granted him citizenship on Monday as he looked set to be sent to the United States.

One player headed to the English Premier League and another player returning from the EPL head the 18-player Olympic men's roster as overage selections made by Coach Nowak.
Brad Guzan, whose deal to join EPL club Aston Villa is in the process of being finalized, was called up to play in goal, while 35-year-old Brian McBride, who played in three World Cups, is looking to return to MLS from English club Fulham.
New England defender Michael Parkhurst, the third overage player, will step into the lineup in the middle of the backline.
The U.S. roster features 12 players who have experience at the full national team level, including the three youngest players on the team, Freddy Adu, Jozy Altidore and Michael Bradley. Adu and Altidore are both 18, almost half of McBride's age.
Of the players who started Canada in the 3-0 victory in March that clinched a berth in the finals, only two won't be headed to China. Jonathan Spector and Dax McCarty have both been injured.
(McCarty is one of four alternates along with Frankie Hejduk, a veteran of the 1996 and 2000 Olympics, Robbie Findley and goalie Dominic Cervi.)
Michael Bradley, who did not participate in U-23 qualifying, joins the team for the finals.
Eight different leagues from around the world are represented on the U.S. roster, including Major League Soccer, which sends 10 players from six different teams. The Houston Dynamo, Real Salt Lake and Toronto FC each send a pair to Beijing.
The U.S. will begin its final preparations for the Olympics on Sunday with six days of training in Palo Alto, Calif. The team will then depart for Hong Kong, where it will participate in the ING Cup, facing fellow Olympic participants Ivory Coast on July 30 and Cameroon on Aug. 2.
The USA faces Japan Aug. 7 in its Group B opener in Tianjin.
GOALKEEPERS: Brad Guzan (Chivas USA), Chris Seitz (Real Salt Lake)
DEFENDERS: Patrick Ianni (Houston Dynamo), Michael Orozco (San Luis/MEX), Michael Parkhurst (New England Revolution), Nathan Sturgis (Real Salt Lake), Marvell Wynne (Toronto FC)
MIDFIELDERS: Freddy Adu (Benfica/POR), Michael Bradley (Heerenveen/NED), Maurice Edu (Toronto FC), Benny Feilhaber (Derby County), Stuart Holden (Houston Dynamo), Sacha Kljestan (Chivas USA), Danny Szetela (Brescia/ITA).
FORWARDS: Jozy Altidore (Villarreal/SPA), Charlie Davies (Hammarby/SWE), Brian McBride (out of contract), Robbie Rogers (Columbus Crew).

Before there was gravity, there was...the cat piano
The world of 17th century scientific and mathematical experimentation was, as Edward Dolnick told Leonard today, one of alchemy, experimentation, and god-fearing superstition. The experiments undertaken by the Royal Society may have led to some incredible discoveries, but some had less serious goals and were, in truth, nothing more than idle amusements. Take the cat piano.
The cat piano was a creation of the renowned philosopher of the day, Athanasius Kircher. Created to amuse a despondent prince, a line of cats were caged into boxes arranged by the pitch of their mews. Attached was a keyboard, and when the keys were pressed by a player, a sharp jab was delivered to the cat in the corresponding box. The result, Dolnick writes, was "a melody of meows that became more vigorous as the cats became more desperate. Who could help but laugh at such music? Thus was the prince raised from his melancholy."
Although some of these cruel experiments on animals had a scientific purpose, Dolnick admits that many of them were essentially stunts. It's remarkable to think that some of the most important discoveries in our canon of scientific knowledge came from the same group who created party games by toying with animals' pain thresholds!

Teacher Retires After 40 years at Winter Street Elementary
HAGERSTOWN, Md. - It's the last day of school for students but for one long-time educator Thursday was the final day of a long career.
The Winter Street Elementary School community said happy trails to the woman who has called the school her home for 40 years.
Pamela Stevens has dedicated her life to teaching more than 1,000 students on the west end of Hagerstown, and doing it all in room 9.
The tears flowed at her retirement celebration as students and teachers told stories and showed their appreciation for the impact she's made on their lives.
"When I was bullied, you helped me, I felt like you were my friend, " said one former student. "You are funny, you are the best teacher in the whole world, thank you."
"She taught me a lot, not only about school but also about life, thank you Mrs. Stevens for being an awesome teacher and all you have helped me; I hope you enjoy your retirement, you deserve it," said another student.
Mrs. Stevens is known for her strict teaching, loving nature and witty personality. She said it's not only about teaching students, but nurturing them.
"Treat the children with respect because you want respect. You want to treat them with respect and remember that children sometimes are coming from difficult situations; and they need the hug and the kiss," said Mrs. Stevens. Yes I am well known for being a hugger and a kisser and I do that everyday for my children."
As she has helped many of her students outside of the classroom.
"I couldn't see far, so she called my dad and told him could she take me to the eye doctor so I can get some glasses," said Sayqon Myers, student.
Although she won't be there to greet students with a hug, her impact will forever carry on through her students.
"She is fun, and she is always in my mind she is in my heart and I will always love her."
Mrs. Stevens said she will be back at Winter Street next year as a substitute teacher.

The School of Management and the Department of Communicative Disorders and Sciences collaboratively offer a five-year program leading to both a Doctor of Audiology (AuD) and a Master of Business Administration (MBA) degree.
These two leading programs combine to give future audiologists the best in audiology and business education. Graduates will be prepared for careers in private practice as well as combined clinical and administrative positions.
The collaborative program reduces by one year the usual pattern of a four-year audiology program and a two-year MBA program. Each candidate must meet the degree requirements of each program, except for the reduction in total credit hours as described in this document. Students will complete a total of 113 credit hours, which will consist of 65 in audiology and 48 in management, of which 21 of the MBA credit hours will be applied to the AuD degree as transfer credit.
Students wishing to pursue the dual program should apply to the MBA program prior to or during their first year of AuD study. Students are required to complete their first year of AuD study prior to enrolling in the MBA program. Applicants to the AuD/MBA program should review admissions requirements. Personal advisement is available at the Graduate Programs Office in 203 Alfiero Center, North Campus.
Students must have an undergraduate degree in communicative disorders and sciences and must take the Graduate Record Exam (GRE) for admission. In audiology, students have fairly rigorous clinical requirements during four years, must pass a clinical gateway exam, preliminary examination, the ASHA exam and complete their research project.
The Graduate Management Admission Test (GMAT) or GRE may be submitted for admission to the MBA program. The final domestic deadline is in May, prior to the fall semester in which the applicant intends to begin the MBA portion of the program.
All applicants are required to take the Graduate Management Admissions Test (GMAT) or the GRE. To receive information on the GMAT, visit the MBA website, for the GRE visit ETS.
Application and detailed AuD program information are available on AuD website.

Canada beef plant samples test negative for E. coli
(Reuters) - Test samples from the XL Foods meat plant in Alberta have come back negative for E. coli bacteria, the Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) said on Friday, moving closer to a decision on whether to reopen the plant, which the agency closed because some of the plant's beef products were contaminated.
Inspection officials tested meat from 5,000 carcasses that were in the Brooks, Alberta, plant before CFIA shut it down.
CFIA plans to finalize its recommendations on the plant's reopening over the weekend after further review of its bacterial controls.
"We must remain focused on the need to protect consumers," said Paul Mayers, associate vice president of programs for CFIA.
The plant has been closed since September 27 after producing beef contaminated with E. coli bacteria that sickened at least 16 people in Canada.
E. coli bacteria can cause illness, or even death, and symptoms include severe stomach cramps, vomiting and diarrhea. Cooking meat to the correct internal temperature kills the bacteria.
Millions of pounds of beef products have been recalled across Canada and in most U.S. states.
The recalled beef will be thrown out, rendered or cooked and used in frozen foods or soups, said Harpreet Kochhar, executive director of Western Canadian operations for CFIA.
The reprocessed product will not re-enter the food supply unless it is re-tested and found safe, he said. Continued...

AUDIO: KCAF v. Downtown Streetcar TDD
Full audio from the July 16, 2013, oral arguments at the Missouri Court of Appeals Western District are now available.Comments are off for this post
Clay Chastain at Union Station
Photographer Eric Bowers captured Clay Chastain during his petition drive at Union Station on Saturday, which was also National Train Day. Chastain gathered about 1,000 signatures, but announced today he'd be scaling back the proposal.
Earlier in the week, Jackson County Executive Mike Sanders made a competing pitch to the Kansas City City Council; the Council tentatively agreed to support the Sanders plan [PDF] and is considering a change in the petition process that would require a financial statement from the city auditor for each petition initiative submitted to voters.
Photo used with permission.3 comments
Chastain returning with one-two punch
Punch #1 – Another light/commuter rail plan. PrimeBuzz has the details.
Punch #2 – Strip the City Council's ability to invalidate petition initiatives.
We've maintained that Chastain's motivation actually seems quite pure and is valuable in keeping the city's feet to the fire on transit improvements. Our system is undeniably underfunded and has yet to make the leap from poor-people mover to economic development engine.
BRT, commuter rail, and streetcars are all great proposals, but none of them will ever come to fruition if our operational funding isn't significantly increased (and preferably on a truly regional basis).
Regarding Punch #2, the Council will never live down repealing the only successful vote on light rail, flawed as it was. Since that first repeal of a petition initiative didn't go so well, expect voters to do some punishing.5 comments
Chastain appeal rejected
The Missouri Court of Appeals put the final nail in the coffin of Clay Chastain's only successful light rail petition initiative today by denying his appeal. Chastain argued that the city council's repeal of the petition initiative was unconstitutional, but the robes disagreed.
The city's charter was amended years ago to allow the council to undo any petition initiative. Opinions on the wisdom of applying that option in this situation vary. It was, at a minimum, short-sighted to reject Chastain's plan entirely (which was approved with 53% in a low-turnout election) than to put all of our eggs in a similarly-problematic basket in a replacement ballot question (which was swept under the rug with only 44% approval in a tide of "change").
Of course, it all seems obvious in retrospect. The council was simply not given adequate information on the options.
In the interim, KC transit riders endured a fare increase and an unsuccessful attempt to secure state funding to prevent service cuts. Brights spots actually exist, however: County leaders are poking around in the commuter rail attic, the city is getting somewhat serious about bike and pedestrian issues (vital to supporting transit), and SmartMoves is progressing with our Bush-era BRT-lite template (the Troost Avenue corridor is next in 2010).6 comments

Appellate court hears Chastain challenge
Read about the continued courtroom drama here, but heed this: "Chastain conceded to the three-judge panel that if the repeal was struck down, there may have to be yet another light-rail vote."Comments are off for this post
Chastain still fighting; is he all we've got?
The Star printed a letter to the editor today from light rail advocate Clay Chastain indicating that he and wife Valerie are will file another appeal this month over the City Council's repeal of his successful ballot question in November 2006. Yes, it's been that long.
While we're still confident the Council was on sound legal footing — the ability to repeal a ballot initiative is a voter-approved part of the city's charter — we're now left with the frightening prospect that Chastain is literally the last figure out there fighting for some semblance of light rail in Kansas City.
- Funkhouser or Ford? Neutered, distracted, or both.
- Johnson? Deferring to Sanders.
- Sanders? Who the hell knows (and does he care?).
What's sad is that there is no one from the business community stepping up to make the next push (Hello, Downtown Council!!!), as we've seen in other successful cities (Denver, Portland, Charlotte) and those with fires still burning (Detroit). Instead, we're stuck with leaders pursuing one zero-sum game after another (convention hotel, pro-sports teams).
We'd really like to see business interests pick up on the Detroit model for a public-private partnership between the river and the Plaza. There is absolutely no reason why every single business/property owner or corporate interest along Main should be supporting this type of endeavor.
In the interim, city leaders should be listening very closely to the feedback from the Alternatives Analysis, which basically is a huge wake-up call for how land use is managed across the metro: STOP SPRAWLING AND SUBSIDIZING PARKING OR YOU WILL NEVER GET LIGHT RAIL OUTSIDE OF THE RCP CORRIDOR. If light rail and improved transit is as important as you said it was last fall, then you need to fix the root cause ASAP.1 comment
City Hall cleared in light rail ethics probe
The Mayor, his staff, and some city council members were cleared this week in an state ethics investigation triggered by the opposition to the November light rail campaign.
The city auditor is still investigating the allegations, which involved the statute that prevents elected officials or their staff from using municipal property or time to campaign for ballot initiatives.Comments are off for this post
Court will hear Chastain appeal Feb. 25
According to the Business Journal, the Missouri Court of Appeals will hear Clay Chastain's appeal on Feb. 25. Chastain filed an appeal last year in response to a lower court's ruling that threw out his case. Chastain is being represented by his wife Valerie, who is a lawyer.
The Journal makes an interesting comment: "It's unclear what happens if appeals court judges accept the Chastain argument, including whether his plan then would have to go into effect." However, we're quite confident that won't happen. If it does, we'll be interested to see the city scramble to come up with a response (because you know they don't have one yet, just in case).Comments are off for this post
KC files brief in Chastain legal challenge
Kansas City's attorney filed a brief today responding to the appeal of the dismissal of Clay Chastain's challenge to the City Council's repeal of his light rail petition initiative that passed in November 2006.
Did you follow that? Well, it's not that important. The challenge was dismissed and the appeal will probably be dismissed, as well. Meh.
In retrospect, the Council's outright repeal of the "unworkable" plan seems especially foolish — not for any legal reason, but simply for the fact that changing the plan with a subsequent vote would have avoided the November 2008 failure at the ballot box.
But here we are, regardless, with our smelly buses, waiting patiently for county leaders to get moving on a regional plan so Chastain can't come back with another initiative (because, let's face it, he will). Recent budget crunches at all levels will put the inevitable off for another year, and Kansas City will continue to evade a reputation as a serious metropolitan area.1 comment

Advocates Mull Whether Strauss-Kahn Accuser's Decision to Go Public Helped Her Case
Victim advocates have mixed reactions to the decision by the accuser in the ex-International Monetary Fund chief Dominique Strauss-Kahn's sexual assault case to go public.
Nafissatou Diallo broke her silence last week in interviews with Newsweek and ABC News before appearing at a press conference in Brooklyn on Thursday.
"It allowed the public who has heard so much about this case to finally see someone in flesh and blood who could be their mother or their neighbor or the woman that they work with and they could hear directly from her what happened," said Sonia Ossorio of the National Organization for Women, who said she felt the appearances helped humanize Diallo.
But attorney Dorchen Leidholdt, director for Battered Women Legal Services, said any benefits gained are outweighed by the potential harm to her legal case.
"If the goal is for DSK to be held accountable, this has made that goal much more difficult," Leidholdt said.
And Leidholdt said that by losing her anonymity, Diallo will have a harder time resuming a normal life: "This will undoubtedly define her for years to come."
Until her media appearance last week, news organizations in the U.S. had kept Diallo's name and picture out of reports. The French press had not.
Some say anonymity only reinforces the stigma associated with sexual assault. But Lynn Frederick -Hawley from Mt. Sinai's Sexual Assault and Violence Intervention Program says changing the culture and ending the stigma is not a victim's responsibility.
"Let the decision be up to each individual survivor," she said. Frederick-Hawley says sexual assault is vastly under reported and would be even more so if anonymity wasn't granted.
While victim advocates called Diallo brave and said what she did was empowering, they also said most women choose not to do the same.
Ossorio, the head of the city's NOW, said the way women are treated in rape cases changed dramatically over the last 20 years. Until the 1980s, she said, prosecutors had to prove that a woman fought back or resisted an attack in order to convict someone of rape.

Steyn to Warner, OUT, lovely delivery, pitching short of a length in line with the stumps and nipping off the upright seam, cramping and squaring up Warner, with no foot movement, and the half-hearted shot towards the on side draws a faint edge through to Boucher, and thus Warner fails on his ODI debut
DA Warner c †Boucher b Steyn 5 (17m 7b 1x4 0x6) SR: 71.42
Kallis to Ponting, OUT, finally someone holds on, and its de Villiers who sashays across to his left to pouch the offering at deep backward square leg! Ponting swivels on an ambitious pull shot but gets underneath it and sends the ball down de Villiers' throat, the end of a charmed innings from Ponting
RT Ponting c de Villiers b Kallis 64 (106m 72b 7x4 0x6) SR: 88.88
Duminy to Marsh, OUT, good diving catch! Marsh remains bogged down and doesn't use his feet much, looking to turn the ball to midwicket but closing the face too early and the leading edge is brilliantly taken by Gibbs, sliding in from extra cover and grasping it mere inches off the turf
SE Marsh c Gibbs b Duminy 78 (137m 103b 9x4 0x6) SR: 75.72
Kallis to MEK Hussey, OUT, in the air and taken by a diving backward point! Kallis gets another, rolling the fingers across a cutter which Michael scoops in the air to Gibbs, sliding and taking it to his right
MEK Hussey c Gibbs b Kallis 28 (39m 34b 2x4 0x6) SR: 82.35
Steyn to White, OUT, White falls to a soft dismissal, just chipping straight to Botha at midwicket
CL White c Botha b Steyn 1 (6m 5b 0x4 0x6) SR: 20.00
Ntini to DJ Hussey, OUT, and he's gone, looking to get innovative! David Hussey backs away only to scoop a full and wide delivery off the toe end of the bat straight to Morkel at backward point
DJ Hussey c Morkel b Ntini 19 (51m 30b 1x4 0x6) SR: 63.33
Ntini to Hopes, OUT, starts off with the sucker ball, full and wide and another scoop to backward point, where Morkel takes a good tumbling catch to his right, cupping it in front and then throwing it away as he hurts a finger
JR Hopes c Morkel b Ntini 8 (11m 13b 0x4 0x6) SR: 61.53
Ntini to Haddin, OUT, now thats something I haven't seen for a while! Ntini pitches full and straight, Haddin swings a straight drive back onto the stumps, the ball ricochets away and Harris set offs, Haddin has no chance and Ntini runs back and gleefully uproots a stump
BJ Haddin run out 23 (51m 26b 1x4 0x6) SR: 88.46
Ntini to Harris, OUT, and a wicket off the last ball, as Harris gets under the ball and scoops it off the toe end of the bat, up and over the infield and it settles in Duminy's palms at deep mid-off

First time poster so be gentle.

Of course, the horse has bolted and i am left here wondering how to close the gate....
So I've been reading these forums for a few years now and gleaned plenty of useful info but recently I got a telling off for not posting and not giving anything back to the community...
...so this is my belated effort to make amends!
Started on an E30 316i Coupe, then an E36 318iS Coupe T-reg (for 12 years) now I'm driving a 2006 E46 320CD Coupe.
Just had the E46 remapped by bwchiptune and have gone from 135hp to 179hp and peak torque from 234 to 316 - the low starting point was due to running spanking new winter tyres which sap power :/
Hoping to add something positive to these forums when I can...
And I just put the alloys and Goodyear Ultragrip 8 Performance (225/45R17) from tyremen.co.uk - a bit pimp, but I'm liking it!

In the next week's issue of HHW we talk to Remy about freedom, fanfare and of course — new music. Recently, DJ Khaled announced he wanted to sign Remy to his label. Here's what Remy told us:
HHW: I saw a pic of you and Khaled working together. He's also talking about wanting to sign you, what do you think of that?
REMY MA: I mean he's awesome. Like I'm speaking from when I was still incarcerated to when I came home, he embraced me fully. Anything I need, and I mean even if I didn't sign with Khaled, I'm sure there wouldn't be a problem for me to call him like, "Yo bro, I need X,Y and Z," and it would happen. He's just a really genuine and real person, I've known him since I was a kid and I want to make sure whatever situation I get into is the right one, but I def would want to have him in on my projects in some aspect, regardless of where I go and what I do, because he's always kept it real with me.
HHW: But I'm sure you have a ton of offers. Is Khaled in the running?
REMY MA: Oh yeah, he's in the running. He's def got his lawyers at my lawyer's office with a couple of other ones. So absolutely.
Don't forget to get the FULL INTERVIEW in next week's issue of HHW – On Newsstands August 19!!

5 Nutrition Myths Busted
Here are five top nutrition myths, busted with the cold, hard facts:
1. Myth: Turkey makes you sleepy.
Turkey alone will not make you sleepy. It's true that L-tryptophan, an essential amino acid found in turkey and many other protein foods, can have a sedative effect in some people, says Linda Yerardi, R.D., a diabetes nutrition educator at Mercy Medical Center in Baltimore, Maryland. But its effects are blunted by the presence of other amino acids in turkey, which compete for the same binding sites in the brain, she notes. "You'd have to take L-tryptophan alone (with no other amino acids present) and on an empty stomach to produce any drowsiness. "Lots of other foods, including ground beef and chicken, contain L-tryptophan, too, and don't have this reputation.
Turkey gets a bad rap because of Thanksgiving," Yerardi continues. "People get sleepy after this meal for a variety of factors, not the L-tryptophan alone. The more likely reason is that it takes a great deal of energy to digest a large meal. A full stomach means that blood is directed away from other bodily functions and systems, including your nervous system. This can make you sleepy."
Enjoy turkey in these healthy recipes:

Dingell,Levin's,Patterson,as politicians;Ceo's of Home Depot,General Electric, CBS; hell,look around where you work and see if this isn't true there. Too many people above age 60 still working because they "can't afford to retire"?
Is it that they can't afford to retire or they want to make more money?Is it "greed"? How much money do these people need? Many of them have more money than they could possibly spend or truly need.
Did they not take advantage of the good times to put a little away for their golden years? I know times are hard now, but in a career we all have had some drastic ups and downs financially. And the majority of us are not sitting on "mattresses stuffed with cash or War Chests of Money".
I also believe that if you reach your senior years, yes, though you may have experience, you lack the ability to stay in touch with reality--does your grandparents really understand the needs of this century's teens, or the needs of anyone under 40? Not really-lest the few that actually communicate and interact with their underlings. Do these politicians even know what the Majority of americans are facing? Hell no, they don't have to worry about mortgages, Health Care costs, or even the cost of bread and milk...
It just upsets me that there are so few decent jobs these days and simply if many of the AARP aged persons had actually laid out a better plan for retirement at an appropriate age there would be an abundance of excellent opportunities for so many americans that are hurting in todays economy.
Go buy your RV- and travel the country like you are supposed to do. PLay golf. Go visit your relatives and tell the same boring stories over and over. Go square dancing and all of the things that you always wanted to do--afterall you don't have to go to work--YOU ARE RETIRED!
Let's let the 30 and 40 year old's make some of the decisions--they are closer to being in touch than you oldsters.Hell they may actually get some of today's problems solved with up to date solutions!
END OF RANT----Sorry it just seems like everyone is too politically correct to point such idiocracies out.
you win a ride in the douche canoe.
"youth is so wasted on the young"
ignoring the wisdom of the elderly is what has fucked up our nation.
I will and have continued to hire people older than me (37) for the simple reason that they have ethics, a desire to produce, prompt, don't give bullshit excuses, have respect and know what it means to work for a paycheck.
no longer will I hire young fucking kids except to clean the bathroom. they are so filled with
and expect to show up on friday to get a check after calling in sick all week. I have tried many a time to hire new grads, younger kids, etc. to give them a chance. you know what, they always fukc it up.
if you are losing your job opportunities to older folks, go blame your parents and yourself, not them.
sorry but the young kids of today simply don't want to hear the truth about what a bunch of fucked up lazy wasted sperm they and their parents are.

This Nordic Tug is in pristine condition and ready for her next owner to take her out on the water to have their own adventures. Some nice features of the Nordic Tug 37 design are: spacious interior layout, handcrafted woodwork throughout, two staterooms, capable of sleeping up to 6 people comfortably, stable & efficient hull design due to the large keel and low center of gravity. The list of benefits and quality of Nordic Tugs goes on and on - if you want to know more, give us a call!
Lady Kerry is ready to go! She is fully equipped with a 330hp Cummins QSB diesel engine with 385 hours, 324 gallons of fuel (1,000 knotical miles @ 8kts), 144 gallons of water and a 32 gallon holding tank. Also, this 37' has a 6hp Side Power bow thruster - excellent for difficult docking situations!
Some extras on this boat are: 9kw Onan Generator, 3 Technicold AC/heat pumps, one fridge and one freezer, new Force 10 propane stove/oven, Corian counter tops & sink, Oyster hull with flag blue inset & a new (2016) 9' Achilles RIB dinghy on Weaver davits.

The Nordic Tug 37 is available with or without a flybridge and in two configurations, the twin stateroom layout that has become so popular and the convertible layout, which allows the customer to choose a 2nd head, laundry room or study. With a fuel-efficient Cummins electronically controlled diesel engine, she can reach speeds in excess of 15 knots, yet is economical enough to cruise over 1,000 nautical miles while burning less than 3 gallons per hour. The 37 gives customers an option for a boat with accommodations similar to that of the 42 in a smaller and more economical package. Designed by Lynn Senour, the originator of the Nordic Tug design, the 37 shares many of the features found in her larger and smaller siblings such as a large ship-style wheelhouse, access to the deck from either side, hand-laid fiberglass hull with hard chine and full keel as well as the same attributes of speed and sea keeping qualities. The waterline length of the 37 is actually 39' 10" due to a molded-in swim step that is essentially an extension of the hull giving her greater speed, stability and fuel economy.

Audi A3 Production Halted for Slow SalesBy Michelle Krebs January 20, 2010
Volkswagen's Audi will suspend production of its A3 compact model at its main plant in Ingolstadt, Germany, in February because of slow sales.
More than half of the plant's 4,500 employees will be off work the week of Feb. 15. The automaker said demand for the small car is low because Germany's version of Cash for Clunkers has expired, and the A3, introduced in its current version in 2004, is aging.
The 2011 version of the A3 sedan arrives in the U.S. in the fall as an addition to the Sportback already on sale.

Manufacturing Back in Growth Mode
January 15, 2007,
Bounding back strongly from weakness the prior month, U.S. manufacturing activity improved during December, growing slowly — but still growing.
With the sector back in a growth mode, the December Purchasing managers' Index compiled by the Institute for Supply management (ISM), jumped up by 1.9 percentage points to a reading to 51.4, rebounding from a weak 49.5 in November. A reading of more than 50 indicates growth in this key sector of the U.S. economy, while anything beneath 50 signals contraction.
"Manufacturing proved resilient in December," said Norbert Ore of the purchasing managers' trade group. Gains in new orders and production made significant gains, he said, boosting the sector back above the break-even point. New orders increased by 3.4 percentage points, jumping up to a level of 52.1 from 48.7 the preceding month. Production levels surged by 3.3 percentage points to a level of 51.8, climbing back above the break-even mark.
Employment ticked up modestly, by half a percentage point, to a reading of 49.7, but still hovered beneath the line that separates contraction from growth.
In a solid piece of good news, the index measuring the price of supplies and raw materials plunged by 6.0 percentage points from 53.5 in November to a level of 47.5 in December, signaling that prices declined. "The Prices Index is trending downward, relieving some of the inflationary pressure that has troubled manufacturing since the middle of 2003," said Ore.

WhistleStop Weekend 2017
Historic Huntsville Depot •
The Marshall Tucker Band, The Rembrandts, and the Gin Blossoms
Come have a toe-tappin, barbeque-eatin' good time and best of all it's all for a good cause. All proceeds benefit EarlyWorks Children's Museum and educational programs for area children.
2017 bring even more excitement with performances by The Marshall Tucker Band, The Rembrandts and the Gin Blossoms!
The Marshall Tucker Band
In the early fall of 1973, The Marshall Tucker Band was still a young and hungry group out to prove themselves every time they hit the stage. "We were a bunch of young guys who didn't know any boundaries," says founding member and longtime lead singer Doug Gray. As it turned out, the collective talents of The Marshall Tucker Band took them very far indeed.
Today, the band records on its own RAMBLIN' RECORDS Label (distributed by Sony/RED) and continues to release new and previously unreleased material. Still led today by founding member and lead singer Doug Gray, they represent a time and place in music that will never be duplicated. Gray is quick to credit the band's current dynamic members with carrying on the timeless essence of The Marshall Tucker Band sound. Current members include the highly respected drummer B.B. Borden, a former member of both Mother's Finest and The Outlaws, multi instrumentalist Marcus Henderson of Macon, Georgia, plays flute, saxophone and keyboards in addition to lead and background vocals, Pat Elwood on bass guitar, and Rick Willis on lead guitar and vocals, both of Spartanburg SC, are disciples of the Caldwell Brothers. Acclaimed lead guitarist and vocalist Chris Hicks recently rejoined the band after a two-year absence. Together they present a powerful stage presence as they continue to tour the country and continue to be powerful force in the world of music.
The Rembrandts
If you've seen The Rembrandts you know they guarantee a great live performance. Their fan-base spreads to over a dozen Countries around the world and their pop smashes have crossed over into multiple radio formats winning dozens of awards. In addition to performing the mega hits "That's Just The Way It Is Baby," I'll Be There For You" and "Johnny Have You Seen Her," they celebrate the 21 year anniversary of one of the most successful TV theme songs in history, Friends! The Rembrandts will also offer an early preview of new music from their 6th studio album. Don't miss this multi-platinum, Grammy nominated artist. The Rembrandts are one of the most successful duos of the 90's!
The Gin Blossoms
In the late 80's Gin Blossoms started to grow a huge following as the #1 local music draw in Phoenix and certainly were the hometown hero's of their favorite hang, Tempe, Arizona.
Gin Blossoms literally define the sound of jangle pop. Boasting sales of over 10 million in the US alone, the Tempe, Arizona-based combo has drawn critical applause and massive popular success for their trademark brand of chiming guitars, introspective lyricism, and irresistible melodies. Their crossover hits are heard on radio, film and TV and their exciting live show continue to make Gin Blossoms one of the most influential Pop bands that began on the 90's. Don't miss this rockin' interactive show!

BC bOp! Jazz Ensemble
boston college bands: bc bop! jazz ensemble
Demanding…and rewarding. BC bOp!'s musicians have displayed their musical chops in some of the world's hottest places — such as resorts in Cancun, the Bahamas, and Jamaica — and in some of the coolest, like New York City's Carnegie Hall; Downbeat magazine's Jazzfest in Orlando, FL; the Reno Jazz Festival in Nevada; and the Lionel Hampton Jazz Festival in Idaho. Closer to home, BC bOp! performs throughout the year everywhere around BC — at cafés, dining halls, outdoor plazas, and Robsham Theater, which always sells out.
The instrumental and vocal ensemble performs traditional and contemporary jazz literature. Its repertoire of over 50 selections includes music from the 1940s to the present and is designed to satisfy a variety of musical tastes.
BC bOp! was featured in numerous publications around BC for its creative concert themes. Titled ibOp!, the theme was based on the cultural icon taking over college campuses around the globe, the iPod. Click here to read a review of the concert!
BC bOp! has performed at Walt Disney Resort in Orlando, Florida, and at three Club Med Resorts; in Mexico, the Bahamas, and Ocho Rios, Jamaica. They've also appeared at the Reno (NV) and Lionel Hampton (Moscow, ID) Jazz Festivals. The band has achieved "Superior" ratings at every event and consistently placed among the top ten college instrumental and vocal ensembles in national competition.
Membership in BC bOp! is determined by competitive auditions held at the very beginning of the academic year, in September. Auditions are held for instrumentalists, including trumpeters, saxophonists, trombonists, and rhythm section members. Auditions are also held for vocalists.
BC bOp! is under the direction of Sebastian Bonaiuto, Director of Bands.
Check out the Events and Performances Calendar for all BC bOp! events, or call the Band Office at 617-552-3018 for more information.
