This shows the "vote by party, not for the people" attitude in DC. This is the best solution to the budget problem at this time and the democrats in the Senate and Obama refuse to negotiate on it. When are all of them going to start doing the will of the people instead of the will of the party? Time to vote everyone out that is causing the problem, starting with the democrats.
I really agree with you on this! It is all about ego and politics instead of what will be best for all citizens at this time.

jrennKansas 4.43/5 rDev +14.2% look: 4 | smell: 4.5 | taste: 4.5 | feel: 4 | overall: 4.5 Poured from can into a standard tumbler. Appearance: Very dense, strong unfiltered color. Banana yellow, for sure. Head was very decent dissipated in a short amount of time, but was overall decent: 1 to 2 inches approx. Smell: Very sweet in it's aromatics. Conveyed the yellow citrus fruit qualities of the beer nicely, very pleasing. Taste: Wonderful, fruit sweetness with a minimal hop presence, but a very pleasing body. Not overly bright, or thin in it's finish, sweet with citrus fruits from the beginning to end, unlike Boulevard's version. Mouthfeel: medium to high carbonation. Drinkable, but not light, or velvety. Dense in it's presence. Overall, a very, very underrated brew in my opinion. Puts many midwestern wheats to shame. The only comparable ones I can think of are the Free State Golden Wheat and the 312. If you enjoy the newer sweeter revamped American version of wheat beers, please, please do this beer justice and pick it up when you get a chance. Do not be deceived by it being canned.

A - pours a cloudy yellowish orange. Very hazy - you can almost see through one side of the glass to the other, but not quite. Appears to well carbonated. Eggshell colored frothy head; almost sudsy looking. Not much in the way of lacing. S - very grassy and herbal w/ strong citrus undertones. Definitely lemony. The yeast gives off a citrusy sharpness that's very nice and aromatic. T - there is a nice biscuit flavor followed by the sparkling lemon citrus flavors. Sweet, and then tart, and then a nice little pop of sourness on the finish. Delicious. As the beer warms a bit, the hops become much more aggressive and balance the maltiness in a nice way. Very different than the hop/malt balance in an IPA or pale, but very delicious. M - medium bodied, feels nice and frothy. Not too heavy, not too light. Plenty of flavor in this brew and the body backs that up. O - overall, this is a very delicious, unique wheat beer. Love that it comes in a can. Tallgrass is one of the regional leaders when it comes to using cans (I believe that is all they use; no bottles) and I hope to see more breweries in the Midwest move in that direction. Serving type: bottle 10-07-2011 23:27:10 | More by lawlerj plfaheyIllinois 4.05/5 rDev +4.4% look: 4 | smell: 4 | taste: 4 | feel: 4.5 | overall: 4 12 oz. can poured into a tulip glass. Appearance-Yellow golden in color, and pretty damn hazy. Medium white head fades to a thin layer of lace. Aroma-Hay-like, grassy hops, with a slight noble/floral touch to them. Slight spritzy citrus note-perhaps orange or lemon-and then some nice bready wheat flavors, a distinct graininess, and a little bit of zestyness from the yeast. Flavor-Soft, bready wheat and a lightly sweet cereal/grainy character dominates the opening. Malt flavors back off in the mid-palate to allow light hop flavors of hay, grass, and flowers to show through. Finishes dry and crisp, with a low hop bitterness and cereal grain malt carrying on. Mouthfeel-Medium body with moderate carbonation, and a silky, full sort of texture from the wheat. Crisp and snappy in the finish. Refreshing, crisp, and delightful. American wheat as a style is rather bland, but this beer manages to bring some nice wheat/malt flavors along with some light hop notes to add complexity. An awesome example of the style. Serving type: can 10-05-2011 04:11:33 | More by plfahey jkrichIndiana 3.35/5 rDev -13.7% look: 3.5 | smell: 3 | taste: 3.5 | feel: 3 | overall: 3.5 Undated 12 oz. can poured a slightly hazy, goldish yellow with a fluffy inch white-head that dissipated slowly leaving some nice lacing. The aroma was rather sweet and refreshing with faint fruity odor. The flavor has a pleasant lemony and mild fruit taste; some husky flavors and sourness in the aftertaste. Thin bodied, which is appropriate for the style, and surprisingly low carbonation for a wheat ale. This is a thirst quenching, above average american style wheat; a fine ale on a hot summer day or at the beach.

Head is one and a half fingers and stays firm. Some lacing. S- Smell is nice and refreshing. Lightly sweet malt, with a wheat spicyness and tropical fruit aroma as well. T- Wow. This is probably my favorite tasting American Pale Wheat. It is wheaty with a light spicy note, and even though the aroma was leaning toward tropical, it really comes through as a bursting citrus flavor here. It is a really refreshing tangerine flavor, and the finish is a nice clean, wheaty flavor. Well balanced. M- Relatively crisp, light bodied, but decent for style. Finish is semi-dry. O- A tremendous wheat beer. Wonderfully delicious. There are some wheat beers that use a lot of hops, but then it loses it's wheaty presence. This one doesn't too that. There is a delightlfully wheaty and also hoppy. Well balanced. Highly recommend.

And this beer, a summer-y wheat by Tallgrass Brewing, of Manhattan, Kansas. My first time tapping them, after Rob has giving samples for so long. About time I got around to it. Here are my thoughts on the beer of wind and wave (and kingfishers). Clouded, pale apricot/orange color, good white head, long-lasting, sturdy and staying. Appealing and inviting. Aroma: Bright citrus, yeast, wheat-y, orange and lemon, light, yet fresh and zesty. Sweet and slightly sour, at once. Taste: Sweetness again, lush in the mouth, smooth and delicious. Tasty stuff, definitely downable, uncommonly refreshing. Wheat texture comes right out, sweetness matches a small amount of sour, and the combination is an utter delight. And now, bitterness rises up, hops come screaming out. I'm going to pause now, and quote the brewery...We start with raw Kansas white wheat in the mix to give it a nice edge, but what really makes it shine is the hops. We use "hop-bursting" late in the brewing process and this gives Halcyon its palate of tropical fruit flavors & aromas with a bright and refreshing taste like the best days of summer. This is really yummy. That's all I've got to say. Been turning the heads of some "I don't like wheat beer" types around here. A bit bolder, hoppier, brighter, and more complex than Oberon. Sweet, bitter, a touch sour, and crazily thirst quenching. Like this one lots. Good work, Tallgrass, I remain a fan of your work! Serving type: on-tap 09-11-2011 09:01:59 | More by feloniousmonk output01xOhio 3.7/5 rDev -4.6% look: 3 | smell: 3.5 | taste: 4 | feel: 3.5 | overall: 3.5 Poured from a 12 oz. can (No Date) into a pint glass. A strong pour yields a 1-finger off-white head that quickly fades to a thin, even dusting and thin foam ring. The body is a hazy straw gold with a decent number of large carbonation bubbles. Some light lacing can be seen clinging to the glass here and there. A light wheat aroma is, of course, the primary aroma. Grainy and sweet, the nose also carries notes of lemon oil and orange zest. Light, tropical flavors start the taste with notes of lemon, orange, and pineapple. Soon after, a sweet, grainy wheat flavor accompanies the fruit flavors. As soon as the beer is swallowed, a floral hops flavor joins the party with a slight bitterness. This quickly fades to more sweet wheat and light tropical flavors. Light to medium bodied with moderate carbonation, this certainly is a great lawnmower beer. The body is light and refreshing. The carbonation is slightly fizzy but does not detract from the flavors. A little more carbonation might help to make this beer more crisp, but it is very drinkable as is.

This large, fluffy head looks soft but has some amazing strength. Lacing is good, but not as impressive as the head and not what I'd expect from it. The aroma is wheat and lemon for the most past with a touch of sweetness. The lemon is soft and without the typical zing. The flavor is likewise wheaty and a hint sweet with a big yeasty note and a touch of rind that isn't harsh. A medium body leans towrd light but with some thickness. It's crisp without the overly spritzy feel and goes creamy while remaining crisp. A very nice wheat beer and a great play what can be an unfortunately bland style.

A finger of eggshell colored head make an appearance but quickly recedes into nothing. No lacing. S- the aroma is the highlight of the beer. Found out from the rep that they used citra in the hop bill... I love citra and it does great things. Starts out with a toasted wheat aroma. Balanced orange citrus hop note in the middle. Finish is ceral grain. Smells like liquid wheaties. T- starts out with a huge toasted wheat flavor that permeates the entire brew. Mild orange hop note in the middle. Finishes a little watery but the agua characteristic blows off and leaves a delicious dry cracked wheat flavor that lasts quite a while. Great finish. MF- Quenching spritzy mouthfeel with a light body and some bubbly carbonation. D- very drinkable just not something that's going to bowl you over. Overall a solid pale wheat.

Was expecting some haze, an extreme yeast presence. About 1/2" of eggshell white head forms that has poor lacing and retention. Smell: I detect some wheaty malts as well as some citrus, mainly a hint of orange zest. That's about it. No hops to speak of. Taste: Taste is similar to the smell. Wheat malts, and some citrus. The citrus is more pronounced on the palate than on the nose. Still average overall. Mouthfeel/Overall: Light bodied with pleasant carbonation. Pretty smooth drinking and not overcarbonated. Overall, glad I got to try this, but it's about an average wheat beer. Good for a hot day though.

Surprised that this can was a 12 ouncer, unlike the other Tallgrass beers. Oh well. Poured a hazy straw color with a rocky white head. Aromas of wheat and light lemony hops. On the palate, this one was light bodied, crisp and refreshing, with wheat and more citrus. Serving type: can 08-25-2011 23:45:24 | More by emmasdad indiapalealeMassachusetts 4.22/5 rDev +8.8% look: 4 | smell: 4 | taste: 4.5 | feel: 4 | overall: 4 Pour - the color of a very hazy, sunny summer day. Leaning towards golden orange with some straw-colored highlights and a very nice looking, fluffy, white head on top. Looks cool and refreshing which is certainly something to look forward to on a day like this - temps pushing 95 right now. Aroma - some citrus, lemons and oranges along with some cut grass and an earthy aroma perhaps from the wheat or the yeast. Nothing too overpowering as far as aroma goes which is how I like my session beers. Taste - first sip really hits the spot. Lots of solid malt flavor, almost reminiscent of a brown ale in some ways, a bit toasty and biscuity. That quickly thins out and a citrusy, hop finish develops. This is not your average American Pale Wheat Ale - which has become the staple style for summer beers, most of which lack a decent flavor profile. Halcyon has a very nice malt backbone and a crisp, citrus-esque flavor that quenches your thirst on a warm day. I really, really like this beer. Overall - If you want the perfect beer to drink outside on a warm, sunny day you certainly couldn't do much better than this. Easy drinking with plenty of flavor and yet thirst quenching and refreshing to boot. Super summer session brew! Would I buy more of it? - yes, definitely. I could go back and forth with this and Tallgrass' Oasis and be very happy all summer long.

There was a lot of carbonation with a big, bright white, creamy head which stuck around for a while. It had a yeasty, slightly bready aroma with hints of citrus. Taste & Feel: The body was light and it had a smooth, somewhat watery mouthfeel with almost no carbonation bite. There was a good, yeasty, bready malt flavor in middle, followed by a lighter bready, airy, slightly citrusy finish. Food Pairing: This was light enough that it would go with almost any food. However, I think it light airiness of it would help to wash down thicker, bready, or even fried, foods. Overall Impression: I haven't had a craft beer in a can for a while, so I was a bit skeptical of it. I found this to be extremely drinkable, and it went down very easily after being outside on this hot day. The flavors were mostly yeasty, but light – adding a bit of tastiness, but leaving it very drinkable. The finish was slightly citrusy, almost effervescent, making it a great summer beer.

Smell is very bready and musty. Hay comes to mind. Maybe even some over ripe oranges. Taste is earthy or grassy. Some sweet malt flavors. Tons of musty yeast flavors. Mouth is well balanced but for a wheat it is not that refreshing. I'm trying to scrape this off my tongue instead of enjoying what's going down. Overall I don't think is a terrible representation of the style, just not my cup of tea (wheat?). Thanks to McNuts for this freebee.

Bought at a liquor store somewhere on the Flint Hills Scenic byway, south of Manhattan, KS. Enjoyed at home in OKC. Very good session beer. I had avoided this beer in the past (been disappointed too often by beers pitched as "light wheat beers") but I was wrong. This beer is damn good. Pours a very pretty hazy gold liquid with a giant fluffy white head. (prettiest beer I've enjoyed in ages). Aroma is ok. Light citrus and wheat notes. Flavor though is excellent. Very complex. Reminds me of a sweeter version of a Belgian white. Sweet but not too sweet. Fair amount of citrus. Crisper than a heffe. Some hops in the background, especially in the aftertaste. Medium mouthfeel. Overall, one of the best beers I've had of this style. I highly recommend it.

Some light citrus, some light bready wheat. I also get just a faint note of hops. Well, this has a much better flavor than I expected. Nice blend of the light wheat and citrus notes, including some lemon and orange. The light hop kick at the end makes for a solid taste profile that works. Light mouthfeel and a good clean finish.

The head is two inches of billowy eggshell white colored foam that recedes at a glacial pace into a fluffy cap of lacing. The aroma is of lemon, tangerines, and some tangy wheat. It is a very vibrant aroma. The taste is full of citrus fruit with a hint of tang. The mouthfeel is medium bodied with a chewy texture, and lively carbonation. Overall, this is a very impressive American Pale Wheat Ale. It has far more flavor that nearly every other beer I've had of this style. I am a much bigger fan of Hefes, and would almost always choose one over a Pale Wheat Ale. However, I this beer is good enough that I could see myself drinking it again. Serving type: can 06-17-2011 20:44:28 | More by KarlHungus Miketwolf21Minnesota 3.68/5 rDev -5.2% look: 4 | smell: 4 | taste: 3.5 | feel: 4 | overall: 3.5 Poured from the can into a New Belgium tulip, it produces a great two finger head even when pulled directly from the fridge. A: The appearance is not quite as opaque as expected, hazy. S: Well balanced aroma is sent from the momentary head. Aromas of edgy Wheat Thin like scent with plenty of plush wheat in the background that are made much more interesting by the citra hops. The citra hops provide a watermelon like aroma. T: Follows the scent, but more focused, crisp wheat flavors. The Citra hops explore mainly in the fruity spectrum with flavors of watermelon, over ripe cantalope, and apples. Maybe a touch of lemon. The wheat thin like (multigrain) flavor comes through especially as it warms that doesn't quite go with the rest of the beer. Best enjoyed straight from the fridge. M: If enjoyed rather quickly, the carbonation stays just right. The mouthfeel is rather thick. Tallgrass has an ability to make thick yet refreshing beers. Thats what I really like about the beer; thick body, yet crisp flavors. The bubbles formed after awhile are little large and make the beer feel less special as flavors gravitate towards an average wheat beer. Overall, great wheat beer. I love the thickness of the beer but wish that there were actually more citra hops in it. When I had it two months ago, as fresh as can be, it was more of a standout (would have been an A-). I will make sure next year I grab a six pack right away. Serving type: can 06-15-2011 19:46:27 | More by Miketwolf21 |

Review: Amazon.com's Kindle Fire HDX tablet, with Mayday
It's a little odd when a company selling a new gadget says one of the most exciting features is its "help" button.
How many carmakers talk up their new models' emergency brakes? Do airplane makers call out state-of-the-art oxygen masks?
But Amazon.com tries to think differently about the Kindle tablets it began selling five years ago. It may be on to something with the "Mayday" button that's a highlight of its new Kindle HDX tablets.

Wow: Major Amazon.com site outage
Amazon.com is having a major site outage with the main storefront unavailable. I wonder if it will slow the recent gains in Amazon.com stock – Amazon's sales average over $100,000 per minute.
Here's what I'm getting at my office next door to Amazon:
While Amazon.com's main site is down, the company's web services provided to other companies are up and running fine, according to the Amazon Web Services health dashboard.
I've asked the company what's happening and will update if or when I hear back.
Meanwhile the stock's down about 2.5 percent to $265.80, after opening at $271.17.
UPDATE: The site is apparently back up. The stock isn't – it's down around $8.50.
Sitedown.co suggest the site was out for about an hour. Apparently the outage affected Amazon P.R. as well.
UPDATE 2: Spokesman Ty Rogers provided a statement confirming that there was an outage but providing no details about what happened. The statement:
"The gateway page of Amazon.com was offline to some customers for approximately 49 minutes. Other pages of the site were accessible and AWS was not impacted."
A person with inside knowledge of the situation said it was "not related to any outside group."
I haven't seen any heads rolling down Terry Avenue yet.

Education taxes loom, will tech companies pay?
If you had to put a face on the tech industry in Olympia, perhaps it should be that of Dudley Dursley, the pudgy, spoiled cousin of Harry Potter.
In the books, you can't resent Dudley as much as his parents, who raised the boy to expect the world — with extra whipped cream and a few cherries on top. They shower him with treats and gifts, and only begrudgingly toss skinny little Harry a bone now and then.
If you think I'm being harsh, take a look at the latest tax proposals in the Legislature and how lawmakers, amid the latest funding crisis, are treating the state's huge tech companies.
Microsoft, Amazon.com and others are in line for even more sweets at their annual Olympia lovefest, while ordinary companies and residents are being forced to clean up the mess.
People across the state are facing huge tax increases over the next few years to cover a shortfall in education funding.
Tech companies would be exempted from the proposed tax increases for education, but that wasn't enough. They're also lobbying to be sure they keep getting other tax breaks that ordinary business people can only dream about.
What makes this especially galling is that tech companies keep calling for the state to improve its education system, especially when it comes to training their future tech workers.
This pleading works. Despite funding problems in recent years, the state found ways to enlarge the University of Washington's computer-science and engineering departments, largely by cutting back on other departments.
How are the chief beneficiaries showing their gratitude? By sidestepping the proposed new education taxes.
Basic education is a primary responsibility of the state under the Washington constitution. But for decades, lawmakers have been short-shrifting kids in the state, while ensuring that favorite industries get plenty of goodies.
After school districts sued, the state Supreme Court ordered the state to cover its education-funding shortfall. It's the biggest issue facing lawmakers this year.
The education-funding proposal left on the table by former Gov. Gregoire would raise taxes on gas, beer and companies doing business in Washington. Not high-tech businesses, though; they would be exempt from the extra 0.3 percent business and occupation tax that builders, bakers, restaurants and most every other business would pay for the next three years.
Collectively, the nontech businesses of the state would pay $248 million more next year under Gregoire's proposal. Gov. Inslee hasn't proposed an alternative yet, but don't count on him pressuring the tech companies that he embraced during his campaign.
The proposed gas tax would start at about 2 percent per gallon and rise to about 5 percent over the next four years. At the high end, that could add perhaps 16 cents to a gallon.
Gregoire's proposal would also extend a special $15.50 per barrel tax on beer for another three years.
Dudley Dursley will do fine, though. Olympia giveth, as well as taketh. (image via Harry Potter Wiki)
Amid the education-funding debacle, lawmakers are offering another big gift to tech companies.
First up is House Bill 1303, a proposal to extend a B&O tax credit for tech companies researching and developing new products. Companies can use the credit to reduce their state tax bill by up to $2 million a year. Tech companies took $23.1 million worth of the credits in 2011, the most recent year for which a tally is available.
This deal expires in 2015 but, with HB 1303, a group of eight lawmakers has proposed extending the bill for 20 years — through 2035. A public hearing on the bill is scheduled for 10 a.m. Tuesday before the House Technology and Economic Development Committee. (Here's the bill:HB 1303.pdf.)
I learned about the hearing from an email sent by a tech lobbying group, urging members to testify in support of extending both the B&O credit and an even more generous sales-tax break for tech companies. The sales-tax break also expires in 2015, and it's a safe bet that someone will propose extending it out into the distant future.
Special tax treatment for "high-tech" companies dates back to the early 1990s, when the state's software industry was beginning to bloom.
Originally the idea was to help companies developing complicated new products by letting them hold off on paying some taxes until their products went on sale.
Back then Microsoft was still building Windows 95 ,and Jeff Bezos was a young Wall Street banker.
As these tech companies grew and soared, so did the state's generosity. The circa 1994 plan to let them defer sales tax on product-development expenses morphed into a sales-tax exemption, and the state extended the program decade by decade.
Whether these tax breaks made a difference is debatable. Although the cost to the state is significant — enough to cover much of its education shortfall — the tax savings are immaterial for the large recipients.
Public assistance makes sense for young companies that may be struggling to pay for product development, before they make their first sales. But after they've grown up, they should be embarrassed to be asking for these perpetual handouts.
The biggest beneficiaries of these breaks are now giants. They're among the most prosperous companies in the world.
Microsoft, the most vocal proponent of improving math and science education, last week reported profit of more than $2 billion per month despite the struggles of the PC industry.
Washington state is doing its part.
Its tech sales tax exemption helped Microsoft and other tech companies avoid paying $31 million in 2011, and $249.8 million in sales taxes over the past eight years.
It's funny — that's almost exactly how much Gregoire's education-funding plan would collect next year from a higher tax on the less privileged companies across the state.
If only there were a friendly wizard to even things out.

Bill Gates up $7 billion in 2012, world's second richest
Seattle's tech billionaires got richer in 2012, according to Bloomberg's billionaire index, which released a year-end report today.
Bill Gates gained $7 billion last year, bringing his estimated net worth to $62.7 billion, according to Bloomberg.
Jeff Bezos also jumped up the list with a $6.9 billion gain last year as his company's stock jumped 45 percent.
Bezos is now worth an estimated $23.6 billion, putting him at 20th place globally. He's also ahead of the Google guys and his former landlord, Paul Allen.
Overall the world's billionaires added $241 billion to their collective worth, Bloomberg reported. Only 16 of the top 100 billionaires saw a net loss in 2012.
Gates benefited from Microsoft stock rising 2.9 percent last year, though his holdings in the company now account for less than 20 percent of his fortune.
The gains weren't enough for Gates to overtake Mexico's Carlos Slim, who remains the world's richest.
But Gates still is the richest tech billionaire. Four of the top 10 tech billionaires live in the Seattle area. Bezos is in third place and Allen is in seventh, just ahead of Steve Ballmer.

Amazon.com ignites holiday sales booster: $7.99 Prime
Amazon.com is pulling out the stops this month with a new monthly Prime membership.
The $7.99 monthly service includes access to Amazon.com's library of streaming video content. By adding a monthly option, Amazon's positioning it as more of a direct competitor to the video services of Netflix and Hulu Plus with similar monthly fees.
But access to a pool of online video is just one component of Amazon's Prime service. Prime is mostly designed to encourage frequent shopping at the site, by providing "free" two-day shipping to subscribers as well as the video service and access to Kindle loaner material.
Selling and shipping merchandise is still Amazon's biggest business and streaming video is minuscule by comparison.
Adding a more accessible monthly Prime option just before the busiest retail season of the year could substantially boost Amazon's merchandise sales.
It will especially appeal to careful shoppers who figure out that they can now pay just $7.99 and get free two-day shipping on all the gifts they buy at Amazon.com.
The strategy may be expensive for Amazon, though. The company assumes more shipping costs with Prime, but as an annual program, it enticed people to become more regular, long-term customers.
Amazon's still offering annual $79 Prime memberships, which works out to $6.58 per month.
Now, with the monthly program, Amazon's offering a lower barrier to entry. Customers who start with a monthly plan and get hooked will have to remember to switch to an annual plan or they'll end up paying more than annual subscribers.
A spokeswoman offered a typically limited comment:
"Thank you for reaching out. We are always looking at ways to improve the shopping experience for our customers. We are testing a monthly Amazon Prime subscription. Beyond that we don't have anything further to offer."
We'll have to see if Costco responds by testing a monthly membership to boost holiday traffic in its warehouses and on its web site.

Amazon.com Inc. said Wednesday it will begin offering authors and publishers a bigger cut of book sales on its Kindle e-reader — but with strings attached aimed at keeping prices that consumers pay down.
The Seattle company said that starting in June, it will offer royalties on book sales of 70 percent after delivery costs. With those costs equaling less than 6 cents per book, Amazon said authors will be able to earn $6.25 per copy on a book that sells for $8.99, rather than the old rate of $3.15.
To qualify for the new rate, authors and publishers must meet several criteria.
The book's list price must fall between $2.99 and $9.99 and be at least 20 percent below the lowest price of the physical edition of the book. It also has to sell for the same price, or less, as it does with competing book sellers.
Finally, it has to be available everywhere the author or publisher has intellectual property rights.
Amazon said the new structure will not apply to books published before 1923 and will only be available for books sold in the U.S., initially.
Amazon has plenty of reason for wanting to keep a lid on e-book prices as it faces multiplying competition in the e-book market. Barnes & Noble Inc. is looking for a slice of e-book sales with its Nook device and Sony Corp. has several readers of its own.
A host of companies came to this year's International Consumer Electronics Show with new devices — and ways of delivering content to them. And unlike existing Kindle models, some of the new gadgets slated for release this year promise features such as color screens and touch navigation.

Fix tables, sticking drawers and chairs with these furniture repair how-tos.
Dirt, dust and old lubricant (or lack of it) can make drawers hard to open and shut. Cleaning gummed-up guides will help; so does the right lubricant.
Other Projects for DIYers from The Family Handyman:
A wet glass on fine furniture can create a white ring that no amount of cleaning erases. Before you resort to paint stripper, try rubbing it with one of these solvents.
A professional woodworker shares basic, time-tested tips that will help you work faster and get better results on your furniture projects.
Traditional paste wax is still the best way to renew and enhance natural wood finishes, and it will hold up better than liquid furniture polish. All you need for application is an old t-shirt and plenty of elbow grease.
Make stuck drawers open smoothly again with a little paraffin or special nylon tape that lubricates those rubbing, sticky surfaces. It's a 5-minute fix.
Knock a wobbly wooden chair apart, clean up the joints and then reglue and clamp it to make it solid and sound again. It's an easy process if you follow our step-by-step instructions.
Keep table legs and other bolted joints tight with a thread locking coating. Loctite adhesive will prevent nuts from loosening.
Make those nicks and scratches in your furniture go away with just a few minutes' work. We'll show you the tricks and techniques that make problems disappear, no matter how old or new they are, without damaging the wood. The fixes are fast, easy and don't cost a lot of money. So stop dealing with those eyesores and let's get to work.
Learn how to refinish furniture faster and easier by avoiding stripping. A seasoned pro tells you how to clean, repair and restore old worn finishes without messy chemical strippers.

Re: Odds of approval? Chase Freedom/Un ited Plus Mileage Explorer
I think you should know that the likelihood of an approval with the Venture card is unlikely. It is a very difficult card to get but because you have a ore-approval, there is a slightly better chance. Your score is good enough but again, you have no experience with a 5K limit and this is a siggy card. Pre-approvals are not a guarantee of approval thus app this card last if you decide to app it. It's on par with the Sapphire.

This paper proposes a flexible architecture of the transform processor for multi-CODECs (JPEG, MPEG-2, 4 and H.264). Also the memory control scheme to efficiently store intermediate data is presented. In the proposed architecture, four arrays block process at the same time with 4 parallel process elements and pipelined structure for improving the processing time. For verification, FPGA platform with ARM-9 core is used. The results show that the proposed architecture satisfies the requirements of each CODECS such as JPEG, MPEG-2, 4 and H.264 standard

Henrik Lundqvist slammed his stick in disgust when an overtime loss in Washington put the New York Rangers on the brink of elimination.
Two days later, the star goalie pumped his arm and let out an emphatic yell when his shutout kept the Rangers alive and set up a Game 7 in the nation's capital.
Lundqvist was the difference Sunday in stopping 27 shots for his seventh NHL playoff shutout. The reigning Vezina Trophy winner was perfect in making Derick Brassard's second-period goal stand up in a 1-0 victory over the Capitals that forced a deciding game in the first-round, Eastern Conference series.
"We needed it. There was desperation out there," Lundqvist said. "We showed a lot of character and worked really hard. It was that type of game where you pay the price — big saves, physical. Great win."
Despite having little room for error, the Rangers stayed composed and played a disciplined game in which they took no penalties until a big scrum after the final buzzer.
Now the Rangers hope that can carry over to Game 7 on Monday night in Washington, where they have lost three times in this tight series. The home team has won all six games.
"They play really well at home and they're confident," Lundqvist said. "The games we've played in that building, special teams have played a big part. We played a really disciplined game, and that's going to be key for us because they have a really good power play, so you have to respect that.
"Play hard, but play smart."
The Rangers earned Game 7 wins at home in last year's playoffs over Ottawa and Washington. If they pull out this victory, it would give them just their second series win after falling behind 0-2.
"We are just going to have the same mentality we had coming into this game," Brassard said. "We just played our game, had fun. The guys were relaxed, and that's what we need to do (Monday)."
Special teams were a factor Sunday, but only in keeping the Capitals in it because of the Rangers' ineffective power play that went 0-for-5 and is 2-for-26 in the series. New York had a failed 5-on-3 advantage that lasted 44 seconds in the first period.
"Some were deserved. Some weren't deserved," Capitals forward Troy Brouwer said of his team's penalties. "We killed our momentum."
Washington didn't get a chance to improve on its 3-for-14 output in the first five games. Two Rangers power plays in the third cut out precious time the Capitals could have had to net the tying goal.
"We battled the whole way," Capitals goalie Braden Holtby said. "Disappointing, but we move along. Our (penalty-killing) is doing great, holding us in the series. Our guys kept their composure. We knew this could go seven."
Brassard handed Lundqvist the lead at 9:39 of the second period, with a goal that was originally credited to struggling forward Rick Nash.
Defenseman Mike Green left Washington short-handed when he took a retaliation cross-checking penalty on Derek Dorsett with 6:14 remaining.
"There are a lot emotions. You can expect scrums and things like that," Dorsett said. "You've got to play your game. You can't just go out and think you're going to scrum it up and win the game."
Just after Green's penalty expired, Lundqvist denied Eric Fehr's drive with a snaring glove save. He then covered the puck in front with 48.4 seconds left, keeping Marcus Johansson at bay after the Capitals pulled Holtby for an extra attacker.
Lundqvist was at his best earlier in the third when the Capitals came at him in waves. He turned aside Mike Ribeiro, who scored in overtime to win Game 5, with just over 11 minutes remaining, and stopped Fehr three minutes later on a rush up the middle.
"Especially late in the game, he made some great saves," Rangers coach John Tortorella said. "Last year, and now he has another Game 7, I think that builds. The ultimate goal for Hank in his mind is to win the Stanley Cup, but you need to go through these types of situations to get there."
Holtby was sharp, as well, in making 28 saves.
Brassard, who has had a breakout series, scored his second goal of the playoffs when he faked a shot and then ripped a drive from the Stanley Cup logo just inside the blue line. The puck clipped the glove of Capitals defenseman Steve Oleksy and sailed through a screen set by Nash in front.
The goal was originally credited to Nash, who is still looking for his first of the series. Nash was more of a presence in front, making more drives to the net in an effort to create more traffic in front of Holtby.
Brassard, a pickup from Columbus in the deal that sent Marian Gaborik to the Blue Jackets at the trade deadline, also had five assists in the first five games of the series.
Lundqvist faced only 15 shots through two periods, but needed to be sharp to keep the Capitals off the board. He made a big pad save with under 5 minutes left in the second to keep the Rangers ahead.
Despite having just a one-goal edge heading into the third, the Rangers carried the confidence that they could protect it. New York went 16-0 during the regular season when leading after two periods and has earned at least one point in those situations since Feb. 4, 2010.
Lundqvist, Brassard keep Rangers alive vs. Caps

June 2010: Breathe and Stop
If you showed up today, you probably expected a Friday ProFile. I'm sorry to disappoint. Over the past year and a half, I've consistently banged out posts five days a week. However, I think I've reached a point where I need to take a pause. A lot's about to change on my end, and I'm trying to process it all at once. Until then, Illicit Exhibitions will be on a brief hiatus.
This post isn't so much of a "goodbye" as it is a "see you later." My obsession with street art certainly hasn't abated; I just need a break from posting. I'm so honored to have such a loyal fan base and it's been a pleasure getting to know so many artists. Thank you for the stickers, tee shirts, and other fun gifts. I can't believe how quickly this tiny project snowballed into its current form. To close, I'll leave you will a concise list of the artists I posted on in 2010. Don't worry, kids, I shall return. Until then, keep it real and don't stop hunting.

May 2010: Brooklyn
Congrats to the class of 2010! I'm impressed, guys; you succeeded in making me cry. Today's the first day of summer vacation and I don't really know what to do with myself. No exams to give, papers to edit, or grammar to explain? I admit that I feel a bit lost. Well, at least I actually have time to post my own photos now. Here's a collection of shots that I snapped last month in BK.
This piece was around the corner from the Brooklyn Brewery. Nearby, two visibly hammered guys were draped over railings trying to sober up. We saw them at 6 pm. If they were having a good day beforehand, I doubt they felt that way once the booze wore off.A little ways away, we found this creepy wheat paste/stencil combo. We stopped at a vintage store and met two hilarious Italian children "standing guard" at the front door. They had their routine down (even demanding passwords for exiting the building).
Then we ran into a giant Pussy Ham.
Later on, Daffy and Bugs tried to outdo the other with this wheat paste series. I appreciate the patience of my company for letting me dart across streets and sidewalks to take these photos. I think I kept my obsession in check, but it's got to be annoying when I disappear for a minute and people can't find me.
Perhaps this shot is my favorite. My friend Mawena (in that gorgeous rainbow dress) poses in front of some Faile wheatpastes. After we took this picture, the lot of us went for drinks and snacks. I feel like this was one of those perfect day situations: delicious food, wonderful company, and ideal weather for roaming around. I'm thrilled to relocate to Brooklyn this August. Can't wait!

June 2010: Superpastel in Buenos Aires
Today's a big day around here: in addition to three World Cup games, the class of 2010 graduates tonight. Since I've spent two years at this school, I'm really going to miss some of these guys. Congratulations, everyone! Today, we travel to the southern hemisphere to hear from Superpastel and his mission to document Buenos Aires. He writes:
"I started painting 10 years ago in the city of Buenos Aires. I like painting in areas like Saavedra, Palermo and Villa Crespo.""My style was generated by several parallel transformations. I'm finishing up my architecture degree at the University of Buenos Aires, where I was working over time to achieve a connection between graffiti, urban planning and architecture."
"I like working on group walls as well as individual paintings."
"Any spot is good if there's friends and sun. I love seeing other parts of Argentina as I paint."
"I'm working on documenting the street, not just in drawings or photos. I love Argentina's architecture from the '20s-'50s."

June 2010: Don Xid in Bogotá
Quick post today: gotta give exams and secretly watch New Zealand play Slovakia. Today, Don Xid checks in from Colombia to share thoughts on this past year. He writes:
"I started doing street art one year ago. I never really thought that it would work in the street, but I soon realized that it was a great place to share what I make. These environments are only found in the street. I paint in different neighborhoods of Bogotá, but I hope to bring my work to other parts of the world.""Lately, I'e been painting with friends but sometimes I paint alone. For me, it doesn't matter."
"I like drawing a lot, and I always try to take my time. I look at the techniques that I'm using and stop to think about what I've done on paper. I can say that I have a definite style, but I'm still working on it."
"I love painting on abandoned areas or ruined land. I like environments filled with silence. I also like the center of my city because there is a variety of people and cultures. There's a lot of traffic and many graffiti artists paint down there, so it's a colorful part of town."
"I have met many wonderful and talented people through street art. Every day, I learn more and I am infinitely happy being able to know these people. They're like icons of the street!"

LONDON, England (AP) — A series of hit-and-run incidents in the Welsh city of Cardiff killed a woman yesterday and injured 11 other pedestrians, including seven children. Witnesses described a motorist deliberately driving into families walking home from school.
South Wales Police said a 32-year-old woman had been killed, and other victims were taken to hospital for treatment. An unidentified 31-year-old man has been arrested and a van has been seized.
Authorities said that there had been at least five separate hit-and-run collisions across the city.
Ramesh Patel, who runs a store close to the site where the woman was killed, said customers had described how the van driver appeared to target pedestrians. "Customers have said a white van purposely drove at people," Patel said.
The incidents took place as parents were collecting children from nearby schools and walking home.

ABUQUERQUE, NEW MEXICO -- My wife and I Stayed at
La Quinta Inn
at Albuquerque NM 5241 San Antonio Dr in March 20 - 23 and when my wife and I checked out I decided to pay with cash but made the mistake and left with out a cash receipt. Upon making my card payment I had seen that La Quinta Inn charged me for the room again.
I called to get the charge off my credit card but was told with out a receipt that that would not be done, I then I asked the manager if looking at the video I can prove I had payed in cash but the manager wouldn't do it for me.
Never will I stay at La Quinta Inn. And learned a lesson to make sure to get a receipt but I thought that an effort would be made to help me prove I payed by looking at the video.

I stayed at a La Quinta Inn a few weeks ago. I was not impressed by any means. They were pretty cheap price-wise, so I guess I got what I paid for. The hallways were dark and dirty, my bathroom vent was falling out and hanging down and the room smelled kind of funky.
Worst part was my TV didn't work. Every channel said it was "acquiring signal". Once and a while I would get a grainy channel to come it. I gave up and read a book, which was probably good for me.
Lastly, I could not figure out why my internet connection kept going out. Well I figured out the internet modem in the room was wired in to the light switch by the room entrance. If I turned that light off, the internet would go out... Kind of funny once I figured it out... but it wasted a lot of my time.
Probably won't be staying at a La Quinta again...

Most videos that stores have are kept only unless there is a known problem ie shoplifting, employee theft etc.
Otherwise, they are just taped over.

A receipt might not have helped if they were out to rip you off. They could just claim it was forged, or that you asked for the cash back because you decided to charge it. These two things happened to me and my sister with different businesses.

Versatility in the Nursing Field
Versatility is a key component of the nursing field. Most nurses have the ability to think critically and see their job as an important role in bettering the lives of their patients. And most nurses also have the ability to react in real time to the demands of the job in a variety of situations.
Throughout the history of nursing, innovation has been a core component of the discipline. And there are many examples of nurses throughout history who had the creativity and critical thinking too pioneer new ways of delivering healthcare services — and these innovators were also aided by the development of new technologies in the healthcare field.
Here are a few brief examples of nurses who've made a difference. Becky Nievers began her career as an RN and then educator at the University of Idaho. Through her experiences, she came to realize that more and more of her pupils were traveling to developing nations to administer the immunizations required of the populations. Despite the fact that the hospitals in these countries did deliver the immunizations, she came to realize that the students still had many questions that they needed to address in order to help deliver the services. With this as her challenge, Nievers began to offer education on how to stay in good health when providing services in these countries.
Soon, her education and training was in high demand as there were no facilities in the healthcare field to offer the health coverage that these professionals needed when going abroad. As a result, she was a leader in the development of travel clinics. From the first office in 1991, these clinics now provide other health services. These include support for bioterrorism, including the anthrax threat in early 2001. With the enormous success of her business, the clinics are now offered as a franchise opportunity for others seeking to join the industry.
Legal Nurses In The Field
Another example of nurses providing innovative solutions to healthcare needs are legal nurse consultants. These specialized nurses use their knowledge of healthcare issues to assist lawyers dealing with healthcare cases. As a discipline, these nurses are expected to provide informed opinions to lawyers dealing with health-related cases. Communication is a key part of this job, and they are expected to act as a liason between parties involved in the legal process to provide satisfactory resolution of the legal actions at hand. These nurses are often self-employed and work in a contract capacity for law firms and insurance companies.
Designing Advanced Equipment For The Medical Field
Yet another way nurses are on the leading-edge of the medical field is in the design and implementation of new equipment. One nurse, Sandy Turner, was highly frustrated with the quality of medical scissors that were available. so, instead of sitting back she developed a new design that allows the tools to be used in a multifunctional capacity. The scissors give nurses a way to work on IV tubing without damaging the contents of the tubes.
Nurses' innovation and entrepreneurship also increases access to health care for those citizens that can't afford medical attention. The examples of Nurse Family Partnership, nurse managed health clinics, and workplace wellness initiatives all started with a determined innovative nurse and an idea.
There is a trend starting where nurses will be case managers for families with chronically ill patients or creating agencies of case managers. With their knowledge and experience, case or care managers help families navigate the health care system to access the specific services their family member needs. Case managers can advocate for the family with other medical professionals. They can coordinate a team of medical personnel. Nurses may become leaders of accountable care organizations in the future. This accountable care organization leader position will depend on government and insurance companies acknowledgement of nurses' vital role in the expansion of the health care system.
Nurses communication skills, perseverance, and position as trusted professionals in the public's eyes can only increase their opportunities of success in becoming business owners in the years to come.

text: The intrinsic muscles include all of the following. The thyroarytenoid muscle extends from the inside of the anterior edge of the thyroid cartilage to the anterior vocal process of the arytenoid cartilage. This muscle may be separated into two portions, an internal part within the vocal cord and an external part between the vocal cord and the wing of the thyroid cartilage. For the most part, the fibres run parallel with the vocal cord. When they contract, they shorten the cord, make it thick, and round its edge. The external portion assists in bringing the vocal cords together, thus making glottal closure more tight. The cricoarytenoids are two muscle pairs: one lateral pair (to the side) and one posterior pair (backward). These two pairs of muscles have an antagonistic (opposing) action. The posterior cricoarytenoids are the muscles of inspiration that open the glottis. They arise from the posterior surface of the cricoid plate and are attached, in an upward, forward, and outward direction, to the lateral muscular process of the arytenoid cartilage. When these muscles contract, they rotate the arytenoid outward, thus opening the glottis. The lateral cricoarytenoids belong among the muscles of expiration, the ...
