One morning last month, Rhode Islanders woke up to the news that the National Rifle Association had been charged with the second-largest campaign finance ethics violation in state history. In a settlement reached by the Rhode Island Board of Elections, the NRA admitted that it improperly funneled money from its national Political Action Committee (or "PAC") to the Rhode Island-specific PAC, illegal under state law. The PAC was fined a historic $63,000.What the stories didn't reveal? That the NRA's wrongdoing, the record fine, and the shuttering of the NRA's Rhode Island PAC was the result of the initial hunch of one person: Brown University student Sam Bell.Bell's story is certainly noteworthy for its David-and-Goliath appeal; the plot notes sound like a chilled-out version of "A Civil Action." It's also remarkable for the NRA's astonishingly poor cover-up (their reports defy simple arithmetic) and the even more stunning realization that nobody checked them for ten years. But the real reasons Bell matters — the success of his legal complaint and the clues that led him there — together represent something else entirely: a new model, potentially, for enforcing campaign finance laws in Rhode Island and around the country.Bell is a Ph.D. candidate in Brown's geology department — not exactly the campus war room, unless you apply a broad interpretation to "digging." But it's the 24-year-old grad student's other job that supplies his political adrenaline, as State Coordinator of the Rhode Island Progressive Democrats. Tall and ebullient, with a perennial tie and glasses that accentuate a scrutinizing demeanor, Bell sharply resembles the consummate grad student, including a thin, brass voice almost perfectly designed for administering factual correction. His age and background, in a way, are camouflage for political foes that get too casual with the facts, whom Bell can skewer (and I can testify) with an encyclopedic knowledge of state politics and polling data down to the district level.I visited Bell at one of his monthly statewide meetings. A dozen coat-clad adults, all over 40, sat in a fluorescent conference room and looked on while Bell comfortably wrapped up a PowerPoint on monetary policy. Later, Bell told me that his suspicions in the NRA case began not with fishy numbers or a secret source, but an old-fashioned political ass-whooping. So ass-whoopy, in fact, that something didn't add up."We failed miserably at passing an assault weapons ban," said Bell, referring to the measure's failure last spring, and citing a failure to act from the legislative leadership despite their repeated official statements of support. That seemed odd to Bell: after all, constituent support statewide for gun control reliably clocks in at overwhelming levels. Sixty-four percent approve an assault weapons ban, including 86% of Democrats, while the NRA received a toxic 56% "unfavorable" rating, both according to polling data from last year. Bell noted that more Rhode Islanders support gun control than supported Barack Obama in the 2012 election.Then Bell learned that the speaker of the house, the senate president and both chambers' majority leaders all had accepted money from the NRA — a lot of money. An independent analysis of public campaign finance reports by BPR confirms that the NRA's Rhode Island PAC spent over $162,000 on Rhode Island elections since 2002, and the speaker and senate president each took $2,700 and $5,700 in the same time frame, respectively. True, Bell reasoned, the Rhode Island legislature is notoriously conservative on issues of reproductive health and voter I.D. — a fact made even more frustrating by Rhode Island's misnomer status as the most liberal state in America, but even that didn't make much sense either, per the same polling data that Bell now knew by heart. The mystery wasn't the legislature's willingness to take the money, but the money itself. In other words, if the NRA was so unpopular, who was writing the checks?"We wondered how this group was able to raise so much money," said Bell. "We had never seen an NRA fundraiser, never heard about one."Then he consulted the public records in the Board of Elections archive (the same source of BPR's analysis) where Bell noticed the organization hadn't reported a single donor in ten years. Such a practice is only legal if a donation is less than $100, known as "aggregate individual contributions." Additionally, Bell said that the NRA's federally filed expenditures matched dollar-for-dollar those of the NRA's Rhode Island-specific PAC — again, every year dating back to 2002.Put another way: the NRA didn't even attempt to hide what plainly appeared to be suspicious activity. Something was clearly up. And Bell was the first to have checked in over ten years.
Here's what Bell saw when he consulted the public records. First, he saw the same pattern repeating over and over again in the NRA Rhode Island PAC's reports to the state Board of Elections: a large sum listed for "aggregate contributions," and a long line of goose eggs for every other category:
And here is the NRA's filing in the same month with the FEC:just to get a few people to pay attention to the issue at all. But the NRA-Bell scandal forces us to reduce this sad canard to its core. Does the NRA assume that people care so little — are they so contemptuous of the law and the intellect of those who might enforce it — that they don't even pretend to comply?Bell was about to find out. With the pro bono help of the law firm CFO Compliance, and with the crowd-sourcing teamwork of his Progressive Democrats posse, Bell began building a case.
In September of last year, Bell filed a formal complaint on behalf of the Progressive Democrats, alleging three specific violations. Here is the Campaign Finance 101 digest of what Bell alleged:1. A federal-state PAC conspiracy. Rhode Island law says that if a PAC is registered in Rhode Island, it cannot receive money from any federally registered PAC. The first and most obvious complaint alleged that the NRA's federal PAC was sending money to the Rhode Island state PAC — a violation of Rhode Island law.2. A failure to report donations. Rhode Island law says that any candidate, campaign or PAC must disclose the name and address of anyone who donates more than $100. The second complaint alleged that there was a high likelihood that many "donors" to the NRA's Rhode Island PAC (if there were any at all) must have given more than $100, just by sheer odds. According to BPR's analysis, the NRA Rhode Island PAC's "aggregated individual" (i.e. undisclosed) contributions amounted to over $160,000. For the NRA to be innocent, that means that not a single donation — once, ever — over a ten-year period and among these hundreds of thousands was ever over $100.3. A violation of the overall campaign contribution limit. Rhode Island Law limits any candidate, campaign or PAC from receiving more than $1,000. If Bell's first complaint was true, that would likely mean that the NRA was sloshing it's money from its national coffers into the RI PAC. Since many of these donations were over $1,000 (in the October 2012 filing above, the contribution is $1,200) — and if that money came from NRA's national PAC as Bell alleges — that would mean the NRA's Rhode Island PAC illegally received more than $1,000 from a single source.Bell's Progressive Democrats filed the complaint in September, and after that… well, we don't really know what happened after that. The Board of Elections conducts its investigations under strict confidentiality.Here's what we do know. On October 3, the NRA's Rhode Island PAC formally dissolved. Whether this was part of the negotiations, or a political attempt to save face, no one knows except for the NRA. It seems clear that without the Progressive Democrats' complaint, the state of Rhode Island would be one NRA Political Action Committee richer.Then, on January 17, the Board of Elections announced their closed-door settlement with the NRA, fining the organization a historic $63,000. Again, how that number was reached is confidential. But far more intriguing was the rationale used by the Board of Elections. The Board found the NRA guilty of funneling money from its national PAC to its Rhode Island PAC — point #1 in Bell's three-part complaint. For that, the NRA faced an enormous fine. But the Board found the NRA not in violation of Bell's complaint #2 and complaint #3: that is, NRA RI was not fined for accepting donations over $100 without disclosure, nor for accepting donations over $1,000.What defense did the NRA use to bring the Board to their side on these latter two points? The NRA argued that its Rhode Island PAC was maintained and operated "within" the NRA national PAC's finances. In other words, they shared the same bank account.Think about that for a second.The spirit of the law — the idea of precluding national PACs from giving money to state PACs — is meant to create separation between national and state money, and to keep state organizations free of outside influence. In response to the allegation that it violated a law meant to keep national and state PACs separate, the NRA argued that the only reason its national and state PACs looked so similar was "only" because the two PACs shared an address, legal liaison and bank account — such that they became indistinguishable from one another. That was their defense.Yet as counterintuitive as their defense may seem, it offers the brilliant catch-22 of exonerating itself from Bell's second and third complaints. If the sharing of bank accounts is an acceptable legal explanation, then suddenly there would be no realistic way to know if the NRA's "Rhode Island PAC" (indistinguishable from the national PAC for financial purposes) ever inappropriately accepted donations of more than $100 or $1,000. Remember, the NRA isn't required to say if checks or cash were earmarked especially for the Rhode Island PAC. If NRA national and NRA Rhode Island indeed shared the same bank account, we can only take the NRA's word that every dollar of "aggregate expenditures" was really intended for Rhode Island, and not just sloshed into Rhode Island as needed from the national PAC's war chest. Why is this, you ask? Because, that's why. Welcome to the Kafka novel that is American campaign finance.If you're confused as hell, that only means you're paying attention — campaign finance is confusing. To the left are Bell's claims and the NRA's defense spelled out graphically. Click on each below for an expanded view.Notice how conveniently self-referential the NRA's defense appears — almost too perfectly, it fits the explanation one would expect if we were to cover up the funneling of anonymous national cash into state politics, hand-in-glove. In that scenario, it would appear that the NRA admitted to a lesser offense in order to deny the far more egregious ones, especially the $1,000 limit."This is why the NRA had to argue they were running the RI PAC inside their national PAC bank account," Bell said in an email. "If they admitted that they transferred money from the national PAC to the state PAC, nearly all of those contributions would be in violation of the $1000 rule." The DiCaprio-themed bank-account-within-a-bank-account alibi seems exactly big enough for a $1,000 limit violation to fit into.All told, the NRA's alibi might go down in history as a contender for the award given for Most Chutzpah Ever Summoned in a Legal Defense. Meanwhile, Bell says there are still major questions in the case, including strong, emerging evidence that the NRA's claims are spurious or at least highly doubtful."We're still looking into this," Bell told me. "We're still trying to collect data, still trying to figure out exactly what happened. I don't think that this thing is fully over."Next week, BPR will take a close look at Bell's claims, evaluate the defense that the NRA has offered, and talk to campaign finance experts about how Bell's example might be followed in other states.

Standing Up for Yourself Is Worth It
Although avoiding disagreements might seem easier than confronting them, in fact it's worth the effort, new research shows.
A new study from the University at Buffalo that assessed bodily responses suggests that standing up for your beliefs, expressing your opinions and demonstrating your core values can be a positive psychological experience.
There can be a clear divergence between what people do and say and how they feel, according to Mark Seery, an associate professor in UB's Department of Psychology.
"People can show conformity, but going along with the group doesn't mean they're going along happily," he says. "The external behavior isn't necessarily a good indication of their internal experience."
The findings, published in the journal Psychophysiology, provide new insights into what it's like being alone against the group, investigating the experience as it happens.
Methodologically this is a hard thing to capture, according to Seery.
He says there is a long tradition in social psychology investigating how people are affected by pressure to conform to a group. The vast majority of the work has focused on behavior and self-reported attitudes, with the assumption that it's uncomfortable being the lone dissenter, and that people are motivated to conform because it relieves their discomfort.
Questioning study subjects during the experience can be disruptive, while waiting to interview them later demands that they recall feelings that aren't always accurately reported.
"But we can tap into the experience using psychophysiological measures, which is what we did in this case by assessing cardiovascular responses," says Seery. "That's where this study started. To try to understand what that momentary experience of conformity pressure is like."
By measuring cardiovascular responses, Seery and the other researchers – UB colleague Shira Gabriel, Daemen College's Shannon Lupien and Southern Illinois University's Mitsuru Shimizu – get a sense for how people are evaluating personal resources versus the demands of the situation while in the act of potentially conforming.
When trying to reach a goal, evaluating high resources and low demands leads to a mostly positive, invigorating experience called challenge, which corresponds with feeling confident. Low resources and high demands lead to a much less confident state called threat, which may produce feelings of anxiety.
The researchers assigned participants into one of four experimental conditions, each with a goal to either fit in with a group's political opinion or assert their individuality, and with a group that either agreed or disagreed with participants' opinion on the issue.

Now Hiring: Small BusinessGene Koretz
The softness in employment growth appears to be evaporating in one key sector of the economy: small business. According to the July survey of the National Federation of Independent Business, the group's members have been strengthening their hiring plans, with a net 15% of small businesses planning to expand employment in coming months. What's more, 25% of all companies reported that they had one or more jobs that were hard to fill--a record percentage for the current expansion.
More good news: Despite stronger hiring plans, NFIB economist William C. Dunkelberg notes that labor-compensation growth among small businesses remains modest. Only 23% reported boosting wages in July, significantly less than earlier this year.

Visit with my family
Monday, January 07, 2013
So wow...
Some of my family came to visit this weekend that I haven't seen in almost 16 years...I had not seen my sister since she was 9 years old and she's 33 now. She had driven out to California to retrieve my mother and her husband (my stepfather, her dad) because he had been diagnosed with Stage 4 brain and lung cancer. My mom has extreme anxiety issues and cant drive so sister thought it would be best for them to move closer to her in Tennessee. On the way there they decided to stop to see me and clear up some family issues we have since he may not have a chance to do it again. End result...I feel like a new person. My biggest hang up in life was a feeling of abandonment and that I was never good enough for anyone or anything. After talking to my mom I found out she didn't abandon me, the state gave her no choice but to turn me over to my dad. Unlike today where the system is over burdened and they try everything to keep a family together, in the 80's they just gave you to the next best option. I also got a chance to forgive her and my stepdad for my crappy childhood.
I know things inside won't change overnight but I already feel so much better than I did before. AND during all of this I managed to keep all my Fast Break goals. Now food choices haven't been the best but I'm getting there and it's a BL season so I have tons of inspiration.

It's always so cathartic when we are able to clear the air with family or friends that we have been at "odds" with for many years. It does indeed feel like a weight has been lifted. I hope you can continue to build/repair your relationships within your family. While that can take years it is so worth the effort on everyone's part. Bless you....and congrats for sticking to those Fast Break Goals!

Looking at the universe of stocks we cover at Dividend Channel, on 12/10/14, Eagle Capital Growth Fund Incorporated will trade ex-dividend, for its annual dividend of $0.37, payable on 12/24/14. As a percentage of GRF's recent stock price of $8.30, this dividend works out to approximately 4.46%, so look for shares of Eagle Capital Growth Fund Incorporated to trade 4.46% lower — all else being equal — when GRF shares open for trading on 12/10/14.
Three of the best-performing funds share common holdings that have bucked the oil-price decline.

The incident occurred when three companies of C-60, an elite anti-Naxal outfit, targeted a secret meeting of the Naxalites. Around 100 armed Naxalites were present in the meeting at that time. The anti-Naxal personnel, who reached the spot on a tip-off, cordoned off the jungle.
The Naxalites retaliated and a two-hour battle gun-battle ensued.
Gadchiroli district superintendent of police (SP) Mohd Suvez Mohd Hague said the police recovered bodies of five ultras from the spot and they would be brought at Allapalli for identification in the night. He said they suspected death of at least ten extremists in the encounter. A large number of arms, ammunition and Naxalite literature were found from the spot.
Bharat Thakur, the sub-divisional police officer of Adheri who led the operation, said the Naxalites had carried three bodies with them during the encounter. He said the police had intensified the combing operation in the area immediately after the operation.
No policeman was, however, injured.
Thursday's encounter was the biggest offensive by the police forces in Gadchiroli, a Naxalite stronghold, this year. The Gadchiroli police had killed six Maoists in an encounter in January.

I also had one and wrote a review. Here and here
Nice rig, but again the exposed muzzle gave me fits. I noticed that while sitting down the muzzle would contact the chair or whatever I was sittling in and raise my gun out of the holster. It happened three times. On two ocasions the gun was pushed up far enough to expose the trigger. Not good. The return was an easy process. They really are great folks to deal with.
Glad the holster worked for you. I will wait for the model that has an enclosed muzzle... if they ever offer one that is.
Give one a try.

Matching family tree profiles for Charles L. Robinson, 1st Governor of Kansas
Immediate Family
About Charles L. Robinson, 1st Governor of Kansas
Charles Lawrence Robinson (July 21, 1818 – August 17, 1894) was the first Governor of Kansas. He was also the first governor of a US state to be impeached, although he was not convicted or removed from office. To date he is the only governor of Kansas to be impeached. He was educated at Hadley and Amherst Academies, at Amherst College, and at the Berkshire Medical School, earning his medical degree from the latter in 1843.
Robinson represented California's 12th State Assembly district from 1851 to 1852.
During the Bleeding Kansas tragedy, Robinson angered many with his passionate support for the Free-Staters, who were promoting a fight against pro-slavery advocates. He was illegally elected Territorial Governor of Kansas under the Topeka Constitution in January 1856. From the spring of 1856 until September, Robinson and several other Free-State leaders, including the son of abolitionist John Brown, were held in custody in Camp Sackett. This United States military camp (named for Delos B. Sackett) was located about 3.5 miles (5.6 km) southwest of Lecompton, Kansas.
In 1861, he took office as Governor of the newly-admitted State of Kansas. His impeachment was due to a political rivalry with James H. Lane.

text: I'd guess it's a reblue, just from the wear on the grips. With grips that worn, I wouldn't expect any finish at all. OTOH, if the gun spent it's life in a holster/stock, and the only thing exposed was the grip, I guess it's possible. What do the grip straps look like?

Question: red cheeks
|preciousjewelsdw - Tue Sep 22, 2009 11:47 am
For many years my cheeck have been red. I have come to the conclusion that I just have to deal with it. I have been to several dermatoligist and do not have rosecea and several other docotr and blood specialist. One doctor told me that I had sinusitis and pollop another told me that I have thick blood. The pressure I feel is sometimes so severe that my head feels like it could explode. What is this. I can see the blood vessels in my cheeks. I am tired of taking meds with no avail - please help me.
|Debbie Miller, RN - Wed Oct 07, 2009 3:00 pm
Has your doctor ruled out Lupus? Some people present with a "butterfly rash" on the cheeks with this autoimmune disorder but it can have various symptoms.
Do you take any medications that might have this side effect? I hope you have seen a doctor for a complete physical exam to rule out underlying causes. It is possible this is just part of your genetic makeup but it's good to have it checked out for sure. You describe pressure so I wonder if you have a sinus condition.
Keep track of your symptoms, if they come and go, if they are associated with any foods or exposures, activities, etc. or if it is a constant condition. Every bit of information you can share will help the doctor to find the cause.
I know it is very frustrating to deal with a condition for which you do not have a diagnosis or cure. Try to be patient as you are observed by your health care professional.
Best wishes.
|preciousjewelsdw - Fri Oct 09, 2009 11:23 am
I have recently went to a dermatologist and have been told that I have ruddy complexion. I am still not sure that its not a sinus problem also. I am going to keep researching things. Thanks
|Debbie Miller, RN - Sat Oct 10, 2009 4:20 pm
You are welcome. There certainly are genetics involved here and I'm sure it would be a relief to learn this is just your skin coloration and complexion.
Best regards.

Following the success of our award-winning Artists Studios at High House Production Park, which have been fully occupied since completion, we worked with the Park to develop a second phase of artists studios to be co-located with workspace for small businesses, as well as a greater number of work-live artist units.
At double the size of the first Studios building, High House Works continues the same economic approach to structure, cladding and servicing as well as the architectural rhythm and detail of the Studios. The long sides of the building are conceived similarly to set-piece neo-classical urban facades that unite a range of differing businesses and functions behind a ordered, rhythmic architecture, albeit here in a robust and industrial contemporary material language.

What´s New in Visure Requirements
Overview of enhancements
- Improved usability to ease end-user adoption
- Improved security for the deployment of Visure Requirements in critical environments
- Modernized product backend for corporate deployments
- New supported versions for Databases, Operating Systems and PluginSDK development environments
General Usability Improvements
Visual Representation of the Edit Status of a Requirement
Users will now be able to quickly identify the status of a requirement through the new status icon. This new icon indicates whether the element is being edited by us i.e. checked out by us ( ), if the element is being edited by another user i.e. checked out by another user ( ), or if the element is not being edited by anybody i.e. checked in ( ).
Improved User Interface
Details tab
The details tab has been redesigned to help users deal with a large number of attributes and large amounts of information at the same time:
Edit common attributes window
Performing bulk operations is key in the Requirements Management process.
The edit common attributes window has been improved to help users modify common attributes over a large group of items at the same time.
Versions tab
The versions tab now highlights the difference in the number of attributes in the different versions, helping users quickly spot all the differences between two versions of the same item.
New steps tab in Test Scenarios and Scenarios
Steps have now their own tab separate from the Details tab, providing users a cleaner environment to work with steps.
New terminology
Visure Requirements' terminology has been improved to provide a common understanding of the terms inside the tool and reflect the intended use of them.
|New Term
|Former Term
|Visure Database
|Access Rights
|Item Collection
|Data Model
|Block Diagram
|Attribute type
Only for instances of relations between items. Other relations still keep the same "Relationship"
|Link Type
|Attribute Workflow
|Traceability tree
|Relationship by Motive
- New Universally Unique Identifier for Requirements
With this new item attribute, users may globally identify a requirement throughout all projects, databases and applications, guaranteeing its uniqueness.
This attribute is specially useful when integrating Visure Requirements with other systems, and interfacing with other companies, making it possible to track the item back to its original location in Visure Requirements independent from its current location.
Improved password security
The new password policy for Visure Requirements users has been improved to match other User Management policies such as LDAP or Active Directory, and comply with the most stringent security audits.
This new password policy includes:
- Password construction guidelines, including minimum length, and whether mixed case, numerals and special characters are required.
- Validity period of the user's password
- User blocking policies such as number of failed attempts and the amount of time a user is blocked
- The administrator of the Visure database (Admin) is able to configure for all the users of the Visure database:
The security policies can be enabled from the New Security tab in the Users folder of the Administration Center.
Modernized Visure Requirements backend
The new underlying Visure Requirements datalayer has been modernized to adapt to the changing market needs providing a more robust, web-enabled business layer. This new architecture provides a more reliable, scalable and performance environment for projects with a high volume of data, and highly distributed teams.. It also means that Visure Requirements 4.7 desktop and the upcoming Visure Requirements Web components will be able to work together with the same Visure Database, thereby providing a seamless transition between versions.
Visure Requirements now supports the following versions:
- Operating Systems: MS Windows Server 2012 R2
- Databases: SQL Server 2014, Oracle Database 12c
- Plugin SDK: Visual Studio 2013

If you have a DVR, you know what I mean.
Right now, there is simply too much good TV. My problem is this: I started watching The Mentalist re-runs on TNT this summer, and am recording two of those every Wednesday. But, I am also recording the new episodes of The Mentalist to watch when I get caught up.And then there's Sons of Anarchy (SOA). I am caught up on SOA through the second season, which is available on Netflix instant watch. But the third season isn't available yet, so I am recording the new episodes while waiting on that release.
And then, there's Burn Notice, which I love, but didn't have time to watch this summer. So I have six episodes of that on my DVR.
What this means is that I barely have enough room to tape the shows I watch weekly (Tosh.0, It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia, American Horror Story, Raising Hope, New Girl, Ringer, Vampire Diaries, The Office, Parks and Recreation, Dexter, Boardwalk Empire, The Walking Dead, Fringe, and the aforementioned Mentalist reruns). Add to that the return of Beavis and Butthead, and next week's return of Bones, and I've got a real problem.
Don't get me wrong, I'm somewhat of an expert in solving recording conflicts, but the real issue here is space. Anyone else having these issues? How do you manage? I guess it's a sign of good TV that there is so much to watch.

China's Xi Jinping Looks to Broaden Investments in Latin America
Chinese President Xi Jinping will tour South American and Caribbean nations next week, including Venezuela, Cuba, Argentina, and Brazil, said the Chinese Ministry of Foreign Affairs in a statement on Monday.
Xi will first visit Brazil, where he will participate in the BRICS summit on July 14-16 in the northern city of Fortaleza, along with other leaders from Brazil, Russia, South Africa, and India.
On July 17, President Xi will attend the Community of Latin American and Caribbean States (CELAC) summit in Brasilia. While in the country, Xi will also meet with President Dilma Rousseff.
The Chinese president is then expected to travel to Argentina and Venezuela, before heading to Cuba. China and Cuba "are good friends, good comrades, and good brothers," said the Chinese Vice Foreign Minister Li Baodong to reporters.
Xi will bring his tour to a close on July 23 after his visit to the communist ally.
President Xi has already met several Latin-American leaders, including the presidents of Mexico, Enrique Peña Nieto, Ollanta Humala of Peru, José Mujica of Uruguay, and former Costa Rican President Laura Chinchilla.
Last year, Xi traveled to Costa Rica, Mexico, and Trinidad and Tobago, before heading to the United States, where he held his first meeting with President Barack Obama.
He also hosted Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro and Bolivian President Evo Morales in Beijing.
Ever since Xi took power, he has highlighted the importance of Latin America as a region with a thriving economy but with bilateral trade that is still below its potential.
Exports from Latin America to China have mainly been food products and raw materials, but both regions are looking to diversify and include higher value-added goods and further attract Chinese investment.

If Investors Are Vultures, What Is Argentina's Corrupt Government?
Español ... There are millions of Argentineans who would economize even to their hunger and thirst to fulfill the promises of our public commitments in the foreign markets It was not President Cristina Fernández de Kirchner or her late husband who said this, nor any of the authorities that have governed Argentina in recent decades. It was delivered in 1875 by President Nicolás Avellaneda, when his country was going through a difficult financial situation that questioned the solvency of the nation and its international credibility. Avellaneda made severe budget cuts, dramatically reduced the number of public employees, cut their salaries, and before long, caught up with debt payments and managed to restore the world's confidence in the goodwill of Argentina. Today, however, we are witnessing a completely different reality, as the current president and her economic team accuse their creditors of behaving like vultures. "Vulture funds" is what they call those who manage the debt that was not restructured as part of the negotiations carried out in 2005 and 2010. To clarify this complicated situation, I will remind the reader that, in late 2001, Argentina was in what is called a default. It could not pay the interest or capital on its vast debt — about US$144 billion — that had accumulated over the years. The Congress of the Republic, in a celebratory fashion, decided to repudiate the foreign debt and sharply devalue its obligations in the local market. Tens of thousands of Argentineans, from one day to the next, saw a sharp reduction in their life savings: for every 100 pesos they held in December 2001, they kept only 28! Foreign creditors complained, and in the end, the government reached an agreement with them: their debt would be paid, but only partially. Creditors would lose two thirds of their invested capital and accept reduced interest. Most of these investors agreed in order to avoid losing everything, but some resisted. Seven percent of them did not sign the agreement and sold their bonds to investment funds. After a long trial, these funds managed to get Argentina to commit to paying what it owed in full. When a court in New York — to which both parties agreed to submit their case — ruled in favor of these funds, Argentina found itself once again in a serious financial situation and at the brink of default. The Kirchner administration has, of course, sought to annul the ruling. They've called their creditors "vultures" in the media, cursed them with expletives, and have even resorted to going to the Organization of American States (OAS) to avoid paying what they have always owed and stubbornly refuse to honor. The OAS has lent the country its solidarity — it has not lent it money, of course — and the opposition, blackmailed by nationalist sentiments, has generally supported Kirchner. This is, however, no just or morally defensible cause. To begin with, not paying what is owed is not ethically justifiable. What would happen in our world — our personal, social, and business relations — if we all decided, for whatever reason, to not pay our debts? Who would then ever be naive enough to lend money again to other, whether it be individuals, companies, or governments? Secondly, Argentina's debt restructuring could not, and cannot, be regarded as binding to its creditors. They bought debt in good faith and do not have to submit to haircuts that significantly erode their net worth. Beyond these basic considerations, there are also other concrete facts that point to the responsibility of past governments of the country and not of its creditors. Argentineans have supported high taxes, an aggressive tax entity that violates all individual rights, and sometimes intolerable pressure from the Treasury. Successive governments have imposed a heavy burden on taxpayers, but have not delivered proportional value in return. Their public spending has served to feed a massive, unproductive bureaucracy and extensive social programs, making millions of people dependent on government aid. Nicolás Avellaneda's Argentina was vastly different. After paying its debts, the country undertook far-reaching programs to create a solid infrastructure. Railroads, ports, roads, and public buildings of all kinds, laid the foundation that put the country among the world's richest. The real vultures are the governments that suck wealth from citizens for their own benefit through taxes. Vultures are the corrupt government officials that abound in the Kirchner administration, starting with the vice president. Vultures are those who spend other people's money to assert power for themselves and rule as despots, not the ones who lent their hard-earned money to a government that is unable and unwilling to follow through with its obligations.

(CNSNews.com) - If you couldn't make it to the Values Voter Summit in Washington this past weekend, look for the Values Voter bus to come to you.
Family Research Council Action says its bus tour will travel the country over the next year, "mobilizing new voters and bringing a message of real hope and change."
The tour kicked off this past weekend -- destination, New Hampshire -- with conservative presidential candidates Rick Santorum and Michele Bachmann on board.
The Values Voter bus will then travel to the swing states of Ohio and Missouri.
FRC Action says that in the coming year, the bus will travel through other battleground states, including North Carolina and Minnesota, both of which have marriage amendments on their ballots.
"We have invited the presidential candidates to join the 'Values Voter Bus Tour' so that they can speak directly to values voters about their plans to protect marriage, safeguard religious liberty, protect the rights of the unborn and restore fiscal sanity," said Tony Perkins, president of FRC Action.
"The presidential race remains fluid in part because values voters have a good selection of candidates who understand that the three cords of conservatism -- social, fiscal and defense -- are intertwined and will work to strengthen them.
"While values voters may rally behind different primary candidates, they are united in the belief that President Obama must be a one-term president. This President must be replaced if we hope to make America militarily strong and secure, economically prosperous and free, and socially healthy and virtuous," concluded Perkins.

Do you find it hard to get the perfect sound from your bass? Maybe your bass seems to virtually disappear in some rooms; then again, it feels like a runaway locomotive in others? The problem's not your bass; you need an equalizer! The Behringer BEQ700 can resurrect your bass, providing total control over your tone, no matter what the performance situation. You can instantly improve the sound of your band from the bottom up, with the Behringer BEQ700.
Master of ToneWith 15 dB available boost or cut per band (that's a lot!), the BEQ700's seven frequency bands have been carefully optimized for EQing the bass guitar, even 5 and 6-string instruments. Of course, to make full use of the BEQ700's capabilities, it helps to first understand some basics about the frequency range of your axe.The BEQ700 covers the audio spectrum from below 50 Hz to over 10 kHz, allowing you to effectively cut or boost specific frequencies that help focus your sound. Special attention has been paid to the critical midrange frequencies, which can either make or break your tone. Our Bass Equalization Guide offers tips that will have you sculpting the perfect bass sound in no time at all.Understanding EQMost performers don't have a clue about what good equalization can do for their sound. Maybe you've heard the old maxim, "Make a sine-wave to get really good sound, " or "Make a smiley-face, that always works." Sadly, this qualifies as advice from the uninformed. Just as every room is different, every musical instrument is unique. Even guitars and basses made by the same manufacturer, using the same materials, on the same day can vary a great deal.People provide a good example of this principal—although we are all similar, we don't all wear the same size shoes, or even have the same color eyes. There is no one "perfect" equalization curve that fits every scenario; equalization is dynamic.Applying EQ to the BassWhen frequencies from 20 Hz - 200 Hz are boosted or cut, the bass is affected dramatically, since sounds in this range are often felt, as well as being heard. Boosting frequencies within this range can increase the sensation of power and punch. Conversely, reductions in this range can weaken or muddy low frequency response.The fundamental notes of most basses fall within the 100 Hz - 1000 Hz range. Even slight changes in this range can cause a tremendous variation in overall bass energy and impact, as the human ear is especially sensitive to this range. Boosting frequencies around 200 Hz often gives the bass warmth and body, without a loss of definition, while boosting frequencies in the 500 Hz to 1000 Hz range tend to make bass sounds brittle. Often, better EQ results can be achieved by reducing the frequency bands that are offending and by turning up the overall volume, rather than boosting one specific band.How the specific frequency bands of the BEQ700 can shape your sound: • 50 Hz (sub-bass) Boost: To thicken up sub-bass content, which is mostly felt rather than heard Cut: To eliminate stage "rumble" and sub-bass content that can rob sound system power • 120 Hz (soft bass) Boost: To enhance the lower end of the bass spectrum Cut: To reduce the tendency of low frequency content to overwhelm a small room • 400 Hz (hard bass) Boost: To enhance the "hard" bass punch of fundamental tones Cut: To reduce punch for better linkage with the kick drum • 500 Hz Boost: or Cut: To control bass clarity and warmth • 800 Hz Boost: To add an aggressive edge to the overall bass sound Cut: For reducing somewhat nasal or horn-like content • 4.5 kHz Boost: To make the bass cut through the mix. Creates a more distinctive plucked tone Cut: To eliminate harshness • 10 kHz Boost: To bring out the upper harmonics and add edge to the overall bass tonality Cut: Apply a cut to reduce harsh high-frequency content or hiss

So, you want to go to Dubai and experience indoor ski mountains, fabulous shopping and luxury beyond anything you have ever encountered before. Of course you do, who wouldn't? You've unexpectedly found a great deal on a hotel during the off season, and now you just need to find the cheapest flights for you and your girlfriends. Hey! Wouldn't a trip to Dubai make for a great girls retreat? It's a bit far to travel, but it is well worth it. Imagine lounging around a pool, sipping cocktails, and then getting dressed to the nines to go out and have a most amazing dinner. Nothing could be better than that. Well, finding the cheapest flights to Dubai in the first place would be pretty amazing as well. Think of all the nifty things that you could do with your girlfriends if you all had a bit of extra cash in your pockets.
What might you want to do in Dubai? Well you might want to go see the worlds tallest building, or travel out to see the beautiful homes on one of the manmade islands, or perhaps your interest is solely in shopping. And shopping in Dubai is like nothing you have ever seen before. Pretty much everything is available, but more than likely you would be able to find it somewhere else and it would cost less. You will pay a premium for shopping in Dubai, but it is all about the experience right? And shopping in Dubai is certainly an experience that everyone should have if they are going to travel to the shopping capital of the world.

Dissolution Notice
Parliament has today been dissolved. I therefore have ceased to be the Member of Parliament for Edinburgh East.
During the period of dissolution my office is permitted to accept casework from constituents. My office however does not have access to the Parliamentary privilege or resource enjoyed since 7 May 2010. During the period of the election campaign, government agencies and public bodies can refuse to accept new casework I raise with them. This means I cannot guarantee my office will achieve positive results, nor that will the request be considered.
Where it is clear that my involvement as former MP would be immediately advantageous to the constituent I would be happy to make enquiries. In some circumstances constituents would obtain a quicker or more effective response from an advice agency or elected representative still in post and my office would signpost accordingly. Alternatively, the enquiry can be held pending the outcome of the General Election.
I would like to thank every constituent of Edinburgh East for their support and engagement during this Parliament, and I am grateful for your cooperation at this time.
Kind regards
Sheila Gilmore

Westminster Report
Budget 2015
The Chancellor delivered his final budget of the parliament on Wednesday the 18th of March. There were no great policy innovations to steal the headlines, so most commentators – including me in my speech in the budget debate – focussed on the Government's proposed spending plans for the next five years. These involve very deep cuts in 2016/17 and 2017/18, and then a significant easing off in 2018/19 and 2019/20 – the so-called spending roller coaster.
Most of the changes contained in the budget are actually implemented through a Finance Bill, which this year was rushed through the House of Commons in a day. In my speech during the bill's committee stage, I highlighted the differences in spending plans of the Government and the opposition. While we don't deny the deficit needs to be reduced, I noted that our plans involve only £4 billion of spending reductions compared to £55 billion under the Conservatives, according to the Institute for Fiscal Studies.
Housing Benefit and the Bedroom Tax
One of the ways in which parliament scrutinises Government spending is through Estimates Day debates. This involves taking a Select Committee report that relates to a particular item of departmental spending, and on 3 March the Work and Pensions Committee – of which I am a member – led a debate on our report on Housing Benefit.
In my speech I noted the broad consensus that Housing Benefit spending is too high, but then highlighted the contrasting approaches of the Government and opposition to bringing it down.
Over the last five years Ministers have salami=sliced away at entitlement to the benefit – one of the most infamous examples of this being the Bedroom Tax – but despite the damage and distress caused to individuals, spending has continued to rise.
In contrast I believe we need to tackle the root causes of higher spending, chief amongst which is a lack of affordable social housing. Only once we get building will we reduce upward pressure on rents in the private sector, and bring down Housing Benefit spending in the long term.
MPs' second jobs
Research released earlier this month shows that the 20 MPs who earned the most from second (and often third or fourth) jobs spoke in 22 per cent fewer debates and submitted 39 per cent fewer written questions than the average MP. I spoke out in the Guardian, saying that MPs should focus on representing their constituents and scrutinising the Government, and calling for a ban on paid directorships or consultancy work
Constituency Report
Towerbank Catchment
Just over a decade ago Towerbank Primary School was an undersubscribed. Fast forward to 2015 and demand for a space at the school outstrips the number of spaces available. Tens of parents have recently contacted me raising considerable concern that the Council has now started an 'informal consultation' on redrawing the catchment area, before the formal stage begins.
The Council must listen to parents' concerns and ensure that it responds with solutions, including pursuing a sibling guarantee for families who already have children at the school. These families have not chosen their situation and to redraw the boundary will cause considerable disruption for households settled in Portobello and Joppa. I know that having children at two schools is both incredibly unfair on families but presents very real logistical difficulties on a daily basis. I have written to the Chair of the Children & Families Committee supporting parents' who have been in touch.
Baronscourt Residents' Success
I'm delighted that the Northfield Willowbrae Community Council and residents in Baronscourt successfully fought off an application for a late hours catering license earlier in the month. Residents can now be assured that this residential area does not become a focus for the night time economy. When Dominos first opened three years ago the franchise owner gave assurances there was no intention of seeking to open late, but we have seen from similar applications elsewhere in the city attempts to get restrictions lifted follow a few years after the initial opening. The applicant is entitled to appeal the decision through the sheriff court, but otherwise cannot reapply for the next year.
Brunstane and the LDP
A couple of weeks ago, it was reported the second development plan could be at risk of being cancelled by the Scottish Government, which could force the City of Edinburgh Council to start the process all over again. You will recall that in October last year I responded to the Local Development Plan consultation and objected to the proposal for up to 1330 homes at the Brunstane. Reiterating the calls I have made regarding development proposals at Newcraighall I am clear that instead we should be developing swathes of Brownfield land within the city, rather than have the Scottish Government force the council's hand and let developers cherry-pick easy sites to develop. Housing at the Brunstane site would cause further traffic congestion and place a huge amount of pressure on local services.
Homebase & Lutton Court Update
In support of local resident's petitions calling on Homebase to stay in the Southside, I've written to the Managing Director requesting that he respond to the campaign. As in my comments on the planning application for the site, I made clear my concerns at the potential loss of the store to local community, which is valued greatly. It is welcome that there is a store which provides 'DIY' and gardening goods without having to leave the centre of Edinburgh and truly complements the retail offering on the Nicolson Street corridor. Remember to sign the newsletter online if you haven't already! Separately, I have now submitted my comments calling to the Homebase appeal to be dismissed; view it at http://goo.gl/vT4Pel.
A couple of weeks ago I learnt the devastating news that residents chose to withdraw from their statutory appeal against the Reporter's decision on Lutton Court. With the legal process exhausted, it is up to the Council to decide whether it will proceed with the sale of the land, or renege on its contract in the interests of local residents. On the back of concerning deals surrounding the Potterow land, and the Royal High lease, I have become increasingly concerned that the pursuit of one-off profits is failing to deliver long term benefits for Edinburgh residents. Residents and I have written to Council leader, Andrew Burns asking that the decision is reviewed before it is too late.
Issues Paper
Just last week another application at Meadow Lane was given the green light. That application, for mews type properties and a new purpose built accommodation block on Buccleuch Street was accepted at committee, even though the student population is over 40% already. It was argued the site was so close to the University of Edinburgh that the concentration issue was not a material consideration, a matter which has angered local residents.
In my response to Student Housing Issues Paper I have called for thorough strengthening of the 30% threshold and to throw out any notion of the University of Edinburgh having any 'campus' within the city centre. I have also argued for the need for a holistic review of the growth of the education sector across the city to ensure that the planning authority and residents can continue to accommodate this huge industry. To see my submission, head to http://goo.gl/XvjeEB. Remember to respond to the consultation at https://consultationhub.edinburgh.gov.uk/ before 24 April.

seantimberlake's recommendation
The Moosewood is the sine qua non of vegetarian cookbooks. Sure, the recipes are a tad earthy crunchy, but there are classics in here that will satisfy even the staunchest carnivore.
My Collections:
SpinDaily's recommendation
This is a classic - been around since 1977!! This is a source book for most of the vegetarian recipe out there. Should be in anyone's recipe library. Cute drawings too.

ApartmentDweller's recommendation
I love the original Moosewood Cookbook. The recipes are easy to follow and always turn out well. They also have the added benefit of being fairly healthy and inexpensive to make.

Thor Ride Being Built At Coney
Correction: To be more specific, as a comment that was made to this post, indicating that we were too general: It is a given that Thor Equities is not assembling these rides but have contracted the traveling carnival company, Reithoffer Shows to bring these rides to Coney Island. This is not a spin tactic. Kinetic Carnival whole heartedly supports the movement to keep a large thriving amusement area in Coney Island.

What Does That Say About Eminem?
Only the good rappers are dead. Biggie? Dead. Tupac? Dead. Vanilla Ice? Still alive. We'll have to agree with Chris Rock, who once said that "If you wanna get away with murder, all you gotta do is shoot someone in the head and put a demo tape in their pocket." If you're a conspiracy theorist, however, and believe that Shakur is lurking somewhere out there with Elvis, Amelia Earhart and Jimmy Hoffa, you'll be glad to see the rapper resurface in 2Pac: The Musical! Featuring such Tupac hits as "California Love," "Me Against the World," "Changes" and "Brenda's Got a Baby," the parody, written by Kevin DeBacker and Evan Greenspoon, revolves around four characters (DeBacker, Greenspoon, Corey Johnson and Laura Zeis) set in an Indiana mall food court. And nothing tugs at Middle America's heartstrings like a song about teenage pregnancy. Upright Citizens Brigade Theater, 5919 Franklin Ave., Hlywd.; Wed., Aug. 25, 8 p.m.; $5. (323) 908-8702.
