WASHINGTON — Mitt Romney seems firmly in command in a Republican presidential field that hasn't figured out how to stop him.
Twelve weeks before the first party voting, the GOP establishment is coalescing around the former Massachusetts governor. He has more campaign experience, money and organization than anyone else. He showed again this week that he's the best debater in the bunch. And President Barack Obama's campaign is treating him almost as the presumptive nominee — even though Romney still faces challenges in some early voting states.
The biggest question in Republican circles is when and how Texas Gov. Rick Perry will use his own substantial campaign funds to buy TV ads hitting Romney's record on health care, abortion, gay rights and job creation.
Perry's campaign, which seems best-positioned to challenge Romney, dropped broad hints Wednesday that the moment is near.
"Now that the field is full, the air war will start soon," said Katon Dawson, former chairman of the South Carolina GOP and Perry's top adviser in the state. "We seem to be inside a 100-day window," Dawson said. "Governor Perry will be extremely competitive on the air."
The tone is different up the coast in New Hampshire. Among rank-and-file Republicans there, even those who favor other candidates have a sense that Romney has gained an air of inevitability. "It's very frustrating," said state Rep. Jim Waddell, of Hampton, who backs former Utah Gov. Jon Huntsman.
Some go even further about Perry's recent drop. "In New Hampshire, he certainly is done," said GOP state Rep. Keith Murphy, who is uncommitted in the race.
Perry's advisers say there's plenty of time to overtake Romney in key states. They are frustrated by bad reviews of the Texan's debate performances, including Tuesday's in New Hampshire. They say it's Romney who is ripe for sharp criticism of his revised positions on abortion, gay rights and gun control, all now markedly more conservative than in the 1990s and early 2000s.
In the debates so far, Perry has generally fallen flat when hitting Romney's "flip-flops" and the health care initiative that required Massachusetts residents to obtain medical insurance. Perry's advisers say aggressive TV ads will do a far more powerful job.
Although Republican and Democratic insiders see Romney as the front-runner, several signs give Perry and the other rivals hope. Most Republican polls show Romney falling well short of a majority of support, as restless voters consider one alternative after another.
Rep. Michele Bachmann of Minnesota surged in mid-summer, then fell as Perry briefly soared. In recent polls, former pizza company executive Herman Cain has ranked as Romney's top rival, although few campaign strategists believe he will be the nominee.
An NBC-Marist College poll in Iowa found that tea party supporters prefer Cain. In national polls, combined support for Cain, Perry and Bachmann exceeds Romney's support.
National polls matter less than surveys closer to home in a handful of early voting states, including Iowa, New Hampshire and South Carolina. Many campaign strategists say Perry must win the Iowa caucus, or at least far outdistance Romney there, to survive the New Hampshire primary, where Romney is favored.
The next states to vote will be Nevada, where Romney seems strong, and South Carolina, where Perry hopes evangelical Christians will back him.
The issue of Romney's Mormonism flared at a conservative gathering in Washington last week, and it might be a factor in South Carolina.
Bob Jones III, chancellor of Bob Jones University, told the Greenville News he's undecided on whether he'll endorse anyone. "There's a vast chasm between what a Mormon believes and what a Christian believes," Jones said. He added, however, "We're really electing a president, not a preacher."

I recently concluded an internship with Assemblyman Marc Butler, and felt compelled to share my experience and thoughts with the community.
I have had the unique opportunity of being on the inside of state government at a time of great uncertainty. The budget is now more than a month late; we have several elected officials who are facing scandals and controversy; and critics are stepping up their call that New York's is the most dysfunctional legislature in the United States.
While we are facing tremendous challenges and numerous cases of corruption among elected officials, I can argue that any blanket term is both unfair and uninformed.
My professor, Dr. Helen Desfosses, makes the argument that politics and politicians are not "four-letter words." This notion that politics is a dirty word that is only associated with bad things is something the media and public have created.
I would make the argument that human nature has created corruption in all businesses and all areas of life. The mistakes made by a few politicians are then magnified on a much larger scale, because that is the spin the media wish to portray. Athletes often make mistakes, but society still tells our youths that it is all right to dream about becoming a superstar athlete.
Our society and media take the time to denounce the actions by a few politicians, but the same blanket statements are not applied to all athletes. Why don't we teach our youths that it is all right to be a politician and to make our state and country a better place?
I can not speak to all members of state government, but I can speak about the official for whom I interned, and the official who represents me at home.
Assemblyman Marc Butler has the third largest assembly district in New York state in terms of geographic size. The 117th spreads over Herkimer and Fulton counties, and a portion of Otsego County. Through my internship with him, I have been able to watch firsthand the amount of time and energy that good people devote to government.
While some may argue that the "bums" in Albany take long weekends off, these same people forget that being an assemblyman does not end when the assemblyman leaves the capital. Butler has two district offices, in addition to the office in Albany.
I have seen a person who has stood up for agriculture, jobs in upstate New York, state parks and historic sites. I have seen a person who has stood up against commissioners on important budgetary issues. I have seen a person who gave back almost $30,000 in member allowance in an effort to do his part of reducing spending.
I have seen a person who puts in countless hours attending and supporting events around the community and in the district. I have seen a person who has to spend days at a time away from his family and sleep in a hotel room. But most importantly, I have seen a person.
I came to this internship with the career goal of becoming governor of a state someday. I am leaving this internship with a much greater grasp on the challenges of being a politician and the responsibilities that come with the title.
Government is an important function of our state and our country. At the end of the day, someone has to be a politician, and it is a shame that we as a public make it undesirable. It may be easy to clump all assemblymen and senators together and say that they are terrible and throw them out of office. But I urge everyone to take a step back and really take a look at what is going on. Look past party lines, look past biased news, and make a decision for yourself.
It has been amazing to see members of the community come into Butler's office and voice their opinions on issues that really matter to them. It has been even more impressive to see the assemblyman truly listen and voice these opinions on the political stage.
It has been a pleasure working for the assemblyman, and I strongly believe there is no one who could do a better job representing our community and our interests. Unfortunately, not everyone has the opportunity to work side-by-side with the state official that they elected. That is why I am sharing my thoughts with the community in the hope that everyone takes the time to become an informed voter.

Balancing the city budget on kids' backs
It is ironic that the Nov. 12 issue of The Daily Star carried a story on Page 2 that the city is considering charging fees for recreation programs and paying the YMCA $65,000 for programming, staff and supplies, and on Page 3 a column by Cary Brunswick describes how poverty can affect the outcome of test scores for our youth.

We must do more to prevent bullying in schools
As a new school year commences, the routine for most children and teens remains quite similar to when I attended school several decades ago. This includes back-to-school shopping, anticipation of new classes and teachers, and the excitement of getting reacquainted with friends. Unfortunately for many, another part of the routine includes the fear of being the target of bullies. What's most unfortunate is that although we as a civilized society have made tremendous strides in sciences and technologies, we have yet to find a way to end this highly destructive problem, and until we do, we must not rest.

Cameras catch home burglary suspects
BUFFALO, N.Y. (WIVB) - Buffalo Police are looking for two burglary suspects, after two people entered a home on Minnesota Avenue last week and made off with electronics. Police say surveillance cameras captured two suspects from the Thursday morning burglary.
Police say the suspects entered a home through a window and made off with a television, computer and other items. Some of the items were recovered at another address, according to police.
Police describe one suspect as a young black male, between 5'9 and 5'10, weighing approximately 140-150 pounds. He was wearing a grey jacket with writing on the back and a red hooded sweatshirt underneath, with dark pants. The second suspect was a young black male, between 5'4 and 5'5 tall, weighing approximately 120 pounds, last seen wearing a dark colored Columbia coat and grey jeans.
Police are asking anyone who has information to call or text the confidential tip call line at 847-2255.

(Thanks to our sponsor, I'm happy to share the interesting info with you in this post. See my Disclosure)
You don't have to be a Picasso to have fun with your kids. All it takes is a little creativity and materials that you probably already have in your home. From painting, sewing and simple cutting and pasting projects, we've got something to satisfy every aspiring DIYer.
Paint the day away
Little ones love to paint! Whether they are using their hands, feet or a brush, painting can add up to hours of fun. To get your kids into the winter spirit, try something even the toddlers can enjoy. Get some paint, construction paper and cotton balls and make penguins using their footprint. Just have them dip their feet in the paint and stamp them on a piece of construction paper. Use cotton balls for the belly and paint the penguin's face.
Another fun painting craft is to have them paint a wintry scene and then dip their hand in brown paint and stamp their handprint on the painting to create a tree. You can fluff out a few cotton balls to make snow and clouds to complete the scene. Need a gift idea for grandma? Use stretched canvas and transform it into a work of art fit for a gallery (or grandma's wall)!
Sew fun
Every household has a drawer full of gloves that have lost their mates. Make some use out of them and teach your kids the art of sewing. All you need is some thread and needles, buttons and cotton. Have each child choose a glove then help them sew on the button eyes and button nose. They can use red thread for the mouth. Once that is done, stuff your gloves with cotton and sew the bottom tightly. These are great for pretend play and puppet shows.
Collage art
Pull out that pile of old magazines and colored envelopes you've been saving and put them to some use. Have children cut pictures and words out of the magazines and paste them on to poster board. Use the envelopes to design a fun border. Make it educational by giving them a topic to focus on, like winter sports, holiday traditions or types of clothing that keep us warm during the winter months. This craft is great for youngsters just beginning to use scissors.
These are just a few great DIY crafts you can do at home with your kids this winter season. When the weather keeps you indoors, keep your kids minds and hands busy with creative projects and a nice hot cup of cocoa.

The Bush Administration's efforts to elevate Federal District Judge Kenneth L. Ryskamp to a pivotal appeals court seat may have been put in jeopardy today after a contentious Senate hearing.
Several Democrats on the Senate Judiciary Committee expressed exasperation with his explanations about his membership in a Florida country club with a reputation for excluding Jews and blacks, and about remarks he made that they said suggested an insensitivity to civil rights.
President Bush has nominated Judge Ryskamp, a 58-year-old trial court judge in Miami, to the United States Court of Appeals for the 11th Circuit, which comprises Florida, Alabama and Georgia. The committee rarely rejects judicial nominees, and all of the several dozen candidates Mr. Bush has nominated have been confirmed.
The two principal issues that threaten Judge Ryskamp's confirmation are his membership of more than 20 years in the Riviera Club in Coral Gables and comments he has made from the bench that provoked outrage from civil rights groups. Urged to Remove Cloud

I have a question to Idiot Muslim Haters!

Post Content
I do not support or respect the warmongers and thieves who run our governments, nor do I have any respect for that stupid system of superstition called Islam. The reason I hate Muslims is because they are a part of that daft system and they want to spread and impose their idiocy on everyone else.
Anonymous Coward 22307505
I am not great fan of Islam either, but I think it's ridiculous to actually blame the Muslims for seeking asylum in your country because of sociopathic warmongers ruling your country decided it would be cool to bomb the shit out of another sovereign state...and the reason? To provide you the luxurious life-style you guys are able to enjoy in western countries by stealing from others.
Kurdish Shepherd
They need to sort their own shit out instead of dumping it on others. The least they could do, if they accept the hospitality of our nations is to make an attempt to adopt our norms and customs. I did.
Anonymous Coward 22307505
I agree I dont put messed up situation in "muslim countries" entirely on Western imperialistic ideology's shoulder, muslims have done very little to fix the fucked up situation there too, and two major factor for this are 1) Religion and 2) High level of un-educated people. But it's very hard to see any progress there when West is constantly making sure that the area itself shall never know peace and harmony...for the day when MIddle-East knows Peace and Harmony is the day of the End of Western luxurious lifestyle.

Wall's breakout
Philadelphia, PA (Sports Network)
- After crossing up Memphis Grizzlies guard Jerryd Bayless and finishing with a step-back 20-footer in the fourth quarter Monday night, Washington Wizards point guard John Wall waved his hand over his face in the manner of WWE star John Cena to indicate, "you can't see me."
But we can John, and we like what we see.
There were plenty of devilish crossovers, drives and step-back jumpers for the usually inconsistent 22-year-old Monday, when he dropped a career-high 47 points on the Memphis Grizzlies by making 13-of-22 from the field and 19-of-24 from the foul line.
It helped that the Grizzlies, who rank second in the NBA in defensive efficiency according to hoopdata.com, were missing arguably the top defensive center in the NBA Marc Gasol, but this wasn't just a one-off performance for Wall.
The point guard has scored at least 23 points in six of the previous nine games and is averaging 25 points per game in that span. He has added averages of 9.3 assists, 4.9 rebounds and 2.0 steals while making 55.6 percent from the field and 83 percent from the foul line on 7.8 free-throw attempts per game.
Wall also is averaging 21.8 ppg and shooting 52.3 percent during a streak of 14 games with double-digit points.
Wall has put up perfectly acceptable statistics for a No. 1 overall pick -- 16.4 ppg, 8.1 apg, 4.4 rpg, 1.6 spg -- during his career, but we have never really seen him dominate for an extended period of time like he has this month.
Blame it on a broken jump shot that now seems like a thing of the past.
Per basketball-reference.com, the former Kentucky Wildcat made just 29.9 percent of his jump shots (183-of-612) in his rookie year and 28.5 percent on jumpers (148-of-519) last season.
In 2012-13, Wall has made nearly as many jumpers as last season with 130, but on 185 fewer attempts. He's shooting 38.9 percent on jump shots this season.
Last July, Wall topped my last of potential 2012-13 fantasy basketball breakouts. A knee injury put a damper on that by keeping Wall out of action for the first two and a half months and limiting him to 26 minutes per game over his first 12 games after returning to the lineup.
But he is averaging 18.2 ppg, 8.2 apg, 4.0 rpg and 1.7 spg while shooting .464/.400/.838 in 25 games since Feb. 2, which was the first game this season he played more than 32 minutes.
With 12 games remaining, there's still time for Wall to build on his March success and finish the season with the best numbers of his career.

Barry, In addition to emphasizing that Scouts need service hours for the Star and Life ranks, we do several things: 1. We have a special troop award (a patch) for any Scout who accumulates at least 100 hours of community service. Time spent on his own Eagle Service Project is excluded from the total in determining whether or not he has earned the award. 2. At the first COH of each year, we present certificates to all Scouts who accumulated at least 20 service hours during the prior year. 3. In the biography of each Eagle Scout read during his Eagle Court of Honor, we include a line which lists his service hours (as well as his days/nights camping, troop meeting attendance percentage, and average uniform inspection score). I just noticed in our OA Lodge's newsletter that the BSA has a special patch available to any Scout or Scouter who completes 12 hours of community service during a year. Our troop will award these to Scouts and Scouters who meet the requirement. YiS,

Obama releases $147M to Palestinians
JERUSALEM (AP) — U.S. President Barack Obama has ended a $147 million Congressional funding freeze that shut down Sesame Street and other aid programs to the Palestinians.
An official with the U.S. Agency for International Development said Saturday that the money, which pays for infrastructure, education and health projects, had been restored.
But the official could not say specifically whether Sesame Street would resume.
The official spoke on condition of anonymity because of the sensitivity of the situation.
In October, a member of Congress froze $192 million earmarked to the Palestinians as a penalty for their United Nations membership bid. Since then, Congress has released about $45 million.
Obama announced Wednesday he would override Congress and release the remaining funds.

Lawmakers consider transportation legislation
JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. (AP) — Amid the risk of losing millions of dollars in federal transportation funding, Missouri lawmakers are considering changes to rules for commercial driver's licenses.
State House members this week gave initial approval to legislation that seeks to comply with federal regulations dealing with learning permits for commercial driver's licenses and with restrictions on texting and using hand-held cellphones while driving a commercial vehicle.
The Missouri Transportation Department says the state could lose $30 million for one year and $60 million annually after that if it doesn't act quickly enough.
The legislation needs another round of approval in the House before it can move to the Senate. Lawmakers have until their mandatory adjournment on May 17 to approve new legislation.
MO Senate OKs sales tax bump for transportation
The tax would need approval by Missouri voters and would automatically go to another statewide vote after 10 years. It's expected to generate nearly $8 billion over a decade, with 10 percent dedicated to local transportation needs.
Senators gave the measure first-round approval Wednesday.
The legislation requires the Highways and Transportation Commission to develop a list of projects before the tax goes on the ballot. The commission would prepare an annual status report for the governor and the Legislature.
When the increased sales tax is in effect, Missouri's gas tax would be frozen and existing roads could not be become toll roads.
Missouri Senators debate transportation tax
The Senate began debate Tuesday on legislation that would ask voters to approve a dedicated sales tax for highways and other transportation needs. But some senators expressed concern that the money would go straight to the Department of Transportation without need of legislative approval in the budget process.
The sales tax is estimated to raise nearly $8 billion over 10 years. Ten percent of the proceeds would go to local transportation needs. The tax would be resubmitted to voters after 10 years for potential renewal.
When the increased sales tax is in effect, the gas tax rate would be frozen and existing roads could not become toll roads.
Missouri senators proposing sales tax for transportation
Republican Mike Kehoe, of Jefferson City, and Democrat Ryan McKenna, of Crystal City, scheduled a news conference about the plan Tuesday along U.S. 50, several miles east of the of the state Capitol.
Missouri transportation officials say funding for construction and improvements fell from $1.2 billion to less than $700 million during the past year.
State Transportation Commission Chairman Rudy Farber called earlier this month for a temporary, 1-cent increase in the state sales tax to financelocal and state projects. Officials estimate the tax would generate $7.9 billion over its 10-year life.

Audi has revealed the first images of its latest hybrid, the A8.
Audi has released the first images of its new A8 hybrid - a car which uses the same hybrid drivetrain as the A6 and Q5 hybrids.
That makes the A8 the third hybrid in the German manufacturer's range as it looks to step up its attempts to slash CO2 emissions and improve fuel economy.
To do so, Audi has employed a 2.0-litre 208bhp TFSI petrol engine which works in combination with a 40kW electric motor, powered by lithium-ion batteries.
The combined effect is a 242bhp hybrid drivetrain which returns 44mpg and CO2 emissions of less than 148g/km however owners aren't restricted to hybrid modes.
There are five driving modes available on the A8 hybrid comprising of EV, D and S alongside a recuperation and boosting mode which run in the background.
The name hints at the EV mode's purpose and it allows the car to run on pure electric power for a potential range of 1.86 miles at a constant speed of 37mph, the D mode allows the A8 to run in hybrid mode and clear 0-62mph in7.7 seconds with a top speed of 146mph.
Audi has been less forthcoming in revealing the mechanics of its S mode other than the fact that it places 'an emphasis on optimal acceleration' which implies it is a mode suited to the executive standards of the standard A8.
To switch between driving modes smoothly and efficiently, the A8 hybrid uses a modified eight-speed tiptronic transmission with a multi-plate clutch and the system sits in an oil bath to maximise performance.
In addition to the hybrid drivetrain, Audi has also reduced the weight of the A8 with a lightweight construction method that uses aluminium for the majority of the model's bodywork that leaves the model 40 per cent lighter than the standard alternative.
Askaprice.com holds a wide range of manufacturers and models at the new car-quotation website allowing users access to some of the best and most competitive new car quotes available in the UK. That means you can compare Audi prices and get the best Audi A8 deals around.

Doubront, Bard land in rotation
FORT MYERS — Felix Doubront and Daniel Bard took different routes to the same destination: the back end of the Red Sox rotation.
Doubront has been a highly regarded prospect since the Sox signed the Venezuelan as a 16-year-old. The 6-foot-2 left-hander has shown promise as he's worked his way up the ladder, but he hasn't been able to make much of an impact in cameos with the team the past two seasons.

Kingdom: | Plantae |
Clade: | Angiosperms |
Clade: | Monocots |
Order: | Asparagales |
Family: | Amaryllidaceae |
Subfamily: | Amaryllidoideae |

Binomial name | |
Narcissus pseudonarcissus L. |
Narcissus pseudonarcissus (commonly known as wild daffodil or Lent lily) is a perennial flowering plant which grows from a bulb. It has pale yellow flowers with a darker central trumpet. The long, narrow leaves are slightly greyish in colour and rise from the base of the stem.
The species is native to Western Europe from Spain and Portugal east to Germany and north to England and Wales. It is commonly grown in gardens and populations have become established in many other parts of Europe. Wild plants grow in woods, grassland and on rocky ground. In Britain native populations have decreased substantially since the 19th century due to intensification of agriculture, clearance of woodland and uprooting of the bulbs for use in gardens. In Germany it was a subject of a national awareness campaign for the protection of wildflowers in 1981.
In England, in the North York Moors National Park, the Farndale valley hosts a large population of the species, along the banks of the River Dove.
In England, in Gloucestershire, there are several nature reserves supporting large populations of the species near Dymock Woods SSSI. There is a Daffodil Walk Trail around several reserves in the spring.[1][2]
There are a number of subspecies of the wild daffodil but the exact number varies according to different authors. The large number of cultivars adds to the difficulty of classification. Among the subspecies is the Tenby daffodil (N. p. ssp. obvallaris, sometimes classed as a separate species) which probably originated in cultivation but now grows wild in south-west Wales.
- ssp. pseudonarcissus - "Lent lily" / "Wild daffodil" - England and Wales
- ssp. eugeniae - Central Spain
- ssp. major- "Spanish daffodil" - Iberia
- ssp. pugsleyanus - Spain
- ssp. nevadensis - Iberia
- ssp. nobilis - "Large flower daffodil" - Iberia
- ssp. pallidiflorus - "Pale flower daffodil" - Spain and France
- ssp. portensis - Iberia.
- ssp. pugsleyanus - Spain
- ssp. obvallaris - "Tenby daffodil" - Southern Wales. (sometimes considered to be derived from relict cultivation of ssp. major [1] )
- ssp. radinganorum - SE Spain.
The daffodil is the national flower of Wales, and also the County flower of Gloucestershire.[3]
Health risks[edit]
Like all Narcissus species, daffodils contain the alkaloid poison lycorine, mostly in the bulb but also in the leaves.[4][5] Hence they should never be eaten.

Tried the eliptical trainer. Well the machine where you run without moving your feet I think and it has the two long poles to hang onto. Bloody stupid machine it nearly killed me.
Have not used it before so had to search around the menu first to select something.
Found the forest walk program felt more like forest gump afterwards.
It had 2 hills in it and I set it for 5ks, I didn't realise how hard that machine was to move fast on. It took me 55:58 to do the 5ks. I was sweating like a pig after 500 metres and I still had another 4.5ks to go. Top heart rate was 168BPM with an average of 148. My feet copped the brunt of most of the pain. I must have been lifting my heels too much and sliding forward in my shoes while using it.
Finished off with 15 minutes on the exercise bike where I covered 4.8ks. Average heart rate of 145 with a top of only 165.
I now feel absolutely stuffed after workout.
