Wicker: MUW to get funds for Creative Learning Center WASHINGTON, DC-House and Senate negotiators have reached agreement on an appropriations bill that contains $980,000 to establish a creative learning center at Mississippi University for Women, U. S. Rep. Roger Wicker said Tuesday. Wicker said the funds are contained in the 2004 Labor-HHS-Education Appropriations Act. He was a member of the conference committee that forged the final package. The Center for Creative Learning at MUW will provide teaching, research, and service opportunities in education for communities across thestate. Through seminars, workshops, grants, national speakers, print and video publications, and the innovative use of technology, the Center will serve as a vehicle for connecting students, parents, and teachers with best practices for creative learning. It will focus on teaching teachers innovative strategies and helping them integrate technology into their classrooms. MUW President Claudia Limbert said, "We are grateful to Rep. Roger Wicker for his tireless commitment to education and MUW. The Center for Creative Learning is one example of Congressman Wicker's dedication to improving education for all Mississippians and will support MUW's continued tradition of academic excellence. Enhancing education is the surest route to improving economic development in Mississippi." Dr. Suzanne Bean, director of graduate studies and coordinator of the graduate program in education, added, "We are so excited about the opportunities this center brings for innovative approaches to education. We look forward to bringing schools and communities of our state and region together to create positive changes in education." The legislation also includes $580,000 for the forensic chemistry program at the University of Mississippi and $240,000 for the Northeast Mississippi Health Care Inc. in Byhalia. This community health center serves the indigent and uninsured population in northwest Mississippi, including many veterans. The Eudora Welty House in Jackson will get $450,000 for renovations and the University Medical Center in Jackson will get $3 million to continue improvements to the Arthur Guyton Building. The Mississippi Arts in Education program is slated to get $150,000 in the legislation. The program brings performing arts to rural communities that would otherwise not have access to them. "We were fortunate to secure funds for these projects that will help
advance education and enhance the delivery and quality of health care
throughout our state," Rep. Wicker said. |

Supreme Court Chief Justice John Roberts, whose surprise vote was decisive in health care decision. |
Michaelidaho...I was unemployed and on COBRA...they wanted over $1,000/month...I am diabetic and so i could not get open insurance...medicare/medicaid is unavailable to a person without a family...except when you are 65 and cant afford the "b" part they help you...many people such as myself have been 'falling thru the cracks" in the US... I worked for a comapny that offered no health insurance...even now in my current job i have ni INs..I get a small stipend for Ins....but no actual insurance but now I have PCIP...which to qualify i had to go without Ins. for 6 months before you can START the application process...total to get Ins...8 months...not good. The Affordable Care Act(Obamacare) will help thousands of people...just not the rich.
"Might be bought off" this is not America we enjoy our freedom and we are a richer nation for that. BTW the Four most profitable banks in the world are Australian and listed on the stock market and did not suffer the ignominy of the U.S. banks during the GFC.Have a good day Briano
It seems ludicrous, but given we're liable for tax even if we file abroad I'd like to know if this will be an issue too.
Seano, I repeat it often and loudly to as many of my fellow citizens as I can, for once I forget what freedom is I might be bought off for $600 a week. I like the New Hampshire state motto "Live Free or die"
Hi Yank, sorry for the delay in coming back. I'm not sure if the law speaks to Americans living overseas.
The Declaration of Independence referred to "life, liberty & the pursuit of happiness." It was written by Jefferson in 1776. {The Constitution was adopted in 1787.}
The phrase "liberté, égalité, fraternité" was coined during the 1790s. This phrase (credit unknown) and Jefferson's "life, liberty & pursuit of happiness" are aspirational, a reflection of the change the two peoples hoped to achieve through revolution.
Jefferson and the other founders of America drew on the philosophers of the 18th century as did those who believed in the French Revolution. There are common roots to both revolutions, however I think those two phrases indicate that there were also differences in the aspirations of the two peoples. "Life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness" are much more individualistic aspirations than are "liberté, égalité, fraternité."
The phrase "all men are created equal" is from the Declaration, not the Constitution.
I don't like putting words in my wife's mouth, but I suspect she'd find a taxpayer-funded national health system more understandable than this mandate.
Nope. My wife's obligations with regards to the household charge have been met.
A "more perfect union" is the opposite of a utopian vision. It's the recognition that man is weak, prone to corruption. That's why they designed a system of limited govt - not because they thought it would be "perfect," but rather it would be more perfect than any other system. Modern usage would probably call it the "least worst option."
The greatest modern nation in your opinion.maybe you would like to live here in our great democracy where the wage safety net is is $600 per wk or have our 5% unemployment rate or or health system and all you can crow about is guns how de classe of you.
seanomelb, it took America's founding fathers to put your "French cornerstone" into the US constitution, along with the right to free speech and the right to bear arms, among other, at the time, novel ideas that turned out to be the blueprint for the greatest modern nation. Obama, for his part, see the US constitution as an obstacle in his quest for ever-growing and controlling government, something the founding fathers took great pains to limit.
Briano It was the French "Liberte Egalite Fraternite" which is the corner stone of the American constitution.It amuses me how some of you Americans think you invented freedom.I suppose if you repeat it often enough you believe it to be factual.
@Yank, The foriegners you argue with don't understand the importance Liberty and individual freedom that every American born citizen until recently is born with. The signers of the Declaration of Independence put every thing on the line for freedom and many were hanged, their wealth taken, and their families destroyed. Giving away any freedom for comfort is immoral to a free citizen of the U.S.A.
To justify voting for the constitutionality of the law Roberts said it is a TAX, if it is a mandate he could not have twisted the truth that far. So if you wish it to be Constitutional it is a tax, non constitutional a fee.
Yank, the penalty/tax is ONLY paid by those who don't have insurance.This is to offset the cost to the taxpayers who like the other car owner in your example, would be stuck for the cost.
TheYank!! The opening words of the U.S. constitution states "all men are created equal.In regards to healthcare the EU is not one nation therefore each country has it's own system.Australia has six states and commonwealth territories and all enjoy the same system. You seem to forget that Obamacare was passed by the house,The Senate (by 60 votes) and signed off by the president and now recognised by the supreme court and the good old GOP will not except the will of the people or the courts.One should remember the Obama took the universal healthcare issue to the people(2008) and won the election.The U.S. suffers a malaise and stagnation due to the intransigence of the party of no.
It's a penalty, as Mitt Romney himself agreed before it was expedient not to agree. Did he contradict himself? Very well he contradicted himself, he is Mitt Romney, he contains multitudes of opinions for any circumstance.
Good point Ciaradexy ! There are a few good points to the healthcare law.1 you cannot be denied coverage because of a pre-existing condition, 2. it will free up the emergency rooms which are generally packed,because a lot of people just sit there all day to see a doctor for non -emergency problems like the flu,because the don't have a primary doctor,because you generally have to have insurance to be seen at a regular office ! Very few doctors will just take you off the street without insurance-mine will but he's 80 and patients are hard to come by at his age. 3.I've heard that quite a few hospitals that bill you after treatment also send another bill to uncle sam,double billing,this law cuts that off.And medicaid ? that's hard to get if you're income level isn't rock bottom.And for the good news :insurance companies can no longer elect not cover the pill for women.It's about time.They've been covering viagra for the old guys for years . Cheers ! liberty!
The Yank, I have a friend from Brooklyn who had a breakdown about 10 years ago. She was admitted to a hospital and had to declare bankruptcy soon after. At the age of 22! Thats not right!
The Yank says "the word 'equality' does not appear in the US Constitution" LOL! What was he celebrating on July 4--voter suppression laws? Article XIV (1868) 1. .... No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the ***equal*** protection of the laws. Article XV (1870) 1. The right of citizens of the United States to vote shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or by any State on account of race, color, or previous condition of servitude. 2. Congress shall have power to enforce this article.... Article XIX [1920] The right of citizens of the United States to vote shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or by any State on account of sex. Congress shall have power to enforce this article.... These articles establish EQUALITY--equal rights--under the law, whether you like it or not Yank!
Please, every country with national health care imposes it on everyone in the form of a tax. Leaving people sick and dying is not a form of liberty. The individual mandate, like every tax, makes freeloaders pay their fair share. If people did not buy health care under the mandate they would end up using the health care system without having paid anything for it. People who already have a health insurance are not covered by the mandate. Think of the mandate as a freeloader tax. ... The firefighters do not have health insurance, but you dismiss this issue. ... The libertarian/laissez-faire capitalist system the wife seems to admire was the same system that brought the mass starvation to Ireland during the potato famine. ... And the religious right, who have moved tto that part of Colorado in droves, pushed their libertarian views so hard that they won the right to build housing developments in previously forbidden fire zones. That's why so many homes have been destroyed. Idiocy in the name of a false idea of liberty.
I bet the "Irish Wife" refuses to pay her €100 house levy too. Funny how people elect politicians to gain favours but when the same politicians try to take a little moola from them they're branded thieves, blackards and gombeenmen...It's the 2hypocrite" gene in action.
"We the people in order to form a more perfect union" seems like it wants to create a utopia! The constitution like here in australia sets out laws to govern the government in an attempt to stop leaders getting too much power and changing the laws to retain power. Promoting equality of all peoples is an important function of all governments, hence laws requiring equality and prohibiting discrimination. Australia has medical breakthroughs and a high standard of medical care one of teh worlds top childrens hospitals. Access to such amenities are based on your need not your wealth. THere are many americans who have been bankrupted by the costs of medical care.
The word "equality" does not appear in the Constitution. There is no constitutional imperative on the government to promote equality.
The constitution was designed by people who believed it best to limit government. They did not see it as government's role to create a Utopia.
It's because so many Americans can avail of the best that medicine has to offer that the system is so expensive. If it were truly available to "just the rich" the costs of the system would be as nothing.
You might well be right. I know nothing about Australia's health care system.
What I don't understand about America's desire for a federal system is that there are as many health care models as there are states in the EU. Why can't the US have 50 different models?
Getting back to the article, how can american's claim to love liberty when they allowed the Patriot Act?? Obama's policy is not a shot at liberty it is trying to make sure that the constitution is upheld by promoting equality for all!! ie treatment for illness should be available to all not just the rich!!
You would just love the Australian healthcare system.
The tax/penalty is a minimum of $695, but can be 2.5% of your income if you don't buy health insurance.
That's true in America too. There is Medicaid, which is something akin to the medical card here for those on low incomes, assistance, etc. There is also Medicare, which is for older people.
The primary difference is that in America if you are considered able to pay you will be billed for the services you use. Here the taxpayer foots the bill for emergency services, long term care, public hospital care, etc so you don't have to have health insurance. You just might have to wait a while for treatment, something Americans visibly blanch at when you talk about such things.
There may also be an upside to the American system that is less apparent. For example, you often see stories about people from here or Britain going to America for some specialist treatment. As far I've been able to tell, the opposite is not true.
I also think the average American expects and receives greater comfort in the hospital than the average Irish or British person. Whether the actual medical care is better, I can't say.
It's very difficult to compare systems in different countries. The American system seems very expensive, but whether it's more costly than the public systems that prevail over here I can't say.
As flawed as the Irish healthcare system may be, at least we all get treated regardless of how much we earn.
I thought the tax/penalty applied if you failed to buy health insurance, not if you seek medical attention. I thought that was the point of the IRS's involvement. If you have to pay an extra tax of $2000 or more that's as good as compulsion.
I still don't see why you would call someone stupid if they they know the actuarial risk of their needing such medical attention is lower than the cost of the plans available would indicate. For a large chunk of the population that is the case. It's a gamble, but one in which the odds are actually in their favor.
Americans will NOT be forced to buy Health Care, as this article incorrectly states. If you're stupid enough to not seek out your own coverage you will pay a mandatory penalty when you seek medical attention. That way you're not so much of a burden on the US tax payer. Ask Mitt Romney, he called a penalty not a tax when he introduced a similar bill in MASS.
By the way, I've been trying to figure out do Americans who live outside the United States need to buy health insurance? I know it sounds ludicrous, but I can't find any provision in the law that says we don't. Having said that, the law is 2000 pages long & I've only read summaries of what's in it.
jerrydonovan, the difference is this: If you don't drive a car, you aren't forced to pay a penalty tax if you don't purchase car insurance. But you must buy health insurance, only because you are an American citizen.............
I'm not Ed.
I doubt all of those firefighters are without health insurance. I would bet a more balanced report would have turned up a few who managed to pay and who might have a few suggestions on why some can afford health care & others can't. Maybe one part of the problem is that those firefighters come from all over America and that some come from states where health insurance is cheaper. Maybe a change to allow people to buy insurance across state lines might make it more affordable?
Your point about education costs in America is no different than if it had been about property loans here. People are paying far more for education than it's worth. They should stop.
In principle you're right about the helmet & seat belt laws, but one key difference is that the cost to the individual in wearing a seat belt or helmet is as nothing compared to the cost of health insurance. Health insurance costs do not reflect the genuine risk that someone might need to avail of health care. Some people pay extra so that others can pay less.
People in Europe have been skeptical of America since 1776. Why should anything be different today?
The car insurance you must buy is not to insure your car, but the cars of others on the road that you might run into. The health insurance mandate is not the same.
What has gone largely unnoticed is the fact that this monstrosity of a budget-busting, freedom-trampling bill was passed with a majority of Americans opposed it. This bill passed only because of political dirty tricks, bribery, arm-twisting, and downright lies by the Obama administration. It is no accident that unions are being given waivers so THEIR members are exempt from the "tax" (mandate). Hopefully, this arrogant failure that is called the Obama administration will be given it's leave this November and this un-American bill can be replaced with something that won't destroy 1/6 of the American economy, as well as the American right to not pay a penalty for not wanting what the government orders.
Ed trying to justify why people have to die or go broke because they cannot afford healthcare.
Donnelly: Right on! The only people "forced" to buy insurance are the ones who can afford it. Thanks to a system that protects corporate profits over people, we now pay twice as much for health care as countries where they simply make sure that everybody is taken care of. Trust me, big medicine is doing fine. They don't need any more charity.
I am not opposed to the provisions of this law requiring everybody to obtain health insurance and preventing health insurance companies from denying a person due to pre-existing conditions. However, I strongly disagree with Donnelly. There is already Medicaid and COBRA that would address this population group who are unemployed. A person in this age group with a job will simply opt out of their employer's health insurance plan and remain on his parents' health insurance plan. This will unfairly increase the costs of those who have no children in the 19-26 age bracket. Finally, it is a person's own responsibility to pay back their own student loans. Nobody forced them to take out their loans.
If I go to get plates for my car I am asked if I have insurance. If i don't I WILL NOT GET THE PLATES.If I lie and have an accident I will be fined when I go to court plus the other persons insurance company will sue me to recover any money that they have to pay out.So what's the big deal with health insurance?Only freeloaders would not want to get insurance.
With choice comes consequences, sometimes those consequences are clear and known and in other instances there are unforeseen. Government cannot protect us from all of our "bad" choices and trying to do so is counter productive and generally a huge drain on available resources. You can no more legislate "good" choices then you can legislate morality, ethics or patriotism. If the government wishes to encourage citizens to buy health insurance then dangle a carrot- make contributions paid to health insurance tax deductible. When will politicians and government learn no matter what they do everyone will not own a home, attend college, have a job, or have insurance. We'll bankrupt ourselves eventually trying to "give" everyone everything they decide we all should have.
As another American living in Ireland, I have to say that I couldn't disagree with this piece more. It brings three points immediately to mind in response. First, it is a disgrace that these seasonal firefighters, who are willing to risk their lives to save others, don't have health insurance. Second, given that so many Americans under 26 are now saddled with extraordinary debt because of the outlandish cost of third-level education and then are forced to take internships or go on to graduate school (and incur even more debt) before they can obtain professional employment, it is great that they now will be covered by their parents' policies until they turn 26. And third, while Americans may now be forced to purchase health insurance that they can rely upon if they become ill, it's really not any greater threat to their liberty than having to wear a motorcycle helmet or seat belt. The view expressed in this piece, which is subscribed to by a significant percentage of Americans, is what has made so many people in Ireland, and around their world, so skeptical of the country I love so much. Happy 4th of July!

- Explore Santorini's volcano and swim in hot springs
- Relax on the Black Pearl of the Aegean's beaches
- See legendary sunsets from the village of Oia
- Free time to explore at your leisure
- 3 nights' accommodation included
- Travel from Piraeus to Santorini by hydrofoil
Why Our Insiders Chose This Tour
An extended visit for those who want to fully soak up the wonders of this glorious island. A thrilling hydrofoil ride to Santorini and hike up the caldera are included, and there are plenty of open hours for lounging on the colorful beaches.
What You Can Expect
There are many beaches dotted along the eastern coast including the famous Perissa and Perivolos beaches which together form the longest black sanded beach on the island. And be sure to visit Red beach with its high red cliffs and its hand size pebbles submerged beneath the crystal clear water.
Day two will take you to the volcano, the youngest volcanic lands in the Eastern Mediterranean. Enjoy an unforgettable experience as you climb the volcano and swim in the lovely hot springs! You will also discover Thirassia, separated from Santorini by an eruption in 236 BC.
Depart Athens at 6:30am from your Athens hotel to Piraeus pier for hydro embarkation, sailing to Santorini. Early afternoon arrival and transfer to your hotel. Hotel Loucas or similar.
Day 02: Santorini - Thirassia
After breakfast at the hotel, you will be transferred to Athinios Port for embarkation on board a small vessel to the volcano. Climb the volcano, enjoy an optional swim in the hot springs and discover Thirassia before returning to Athinios Port at around 5:00pm. Please note, the hot springs are accessible by a short swim from the ship to the cove, which might not be suitable for the less adventurous. Spend the evening at leisure.
Day 03: Santorini
The day is yours at leisure to explore the mysterious and majestic Santorini, the 'Black Pearl of the Aegean' and perhaps the most breathtaking of all the Greek islands. Around 1500 BC a volcanic eruption caused the central part of the island to sink into the sea, leaving a crescent shaped rim of cliffs around the harbor formed in the volcano's Caldera.
Day 04: Santorini - Piraeus
Mid morning transfer to Santorini pier for embarkation on the hydro to Piraeus arriving at approximately 8:00pm
Customer Reviews
Jeffrey W
October 2012
Great trip. Everything went like clockwork. Picked up in Athens - Armiea Hotel by taxi - taken directedly to fast catamaran - 4 or so hours later in Santorini - met by someone at Port - taken by bus to Hotel Lucas. Included full day trip to volacano. Okay - Hotel was clean and very central at Fira. The views were the best ever - right outside our door we overlooked all the cruise ships. Plenty of restaurants within walking distance - however be prepared for heaps of stairs. We took an optional all day tour of around the island. If you take this you really need to get to the top of the island of the first day to see the sunset at Ora - otherwise it is hard to find time to get there. Pool at the hotel is fine - breakfast is a nice little starter. There is a supermarket and ATMs all close by plus (for Aussies) even a hotel that shows NRL and AFL games. Tips: When doing volcano tour you need good shoes and water - it's hard and hot. Same day the swim at thermal pool will stain any white clothing. Tips: Wine is very reasonable and good at Santorini Winery. Tips: The Fast Ferry still takes a while so be prepared for reading etc. Final tip: Your time will disappear fast at Santorini. Take advantage of great photo ops. Have a swim, dress up, have some wine and take some brillant photos at sunset. I'm sure they will make your new desktop screensaver.
June 2013
There was some confusion on the excursion - no clear instructions for location of pick up, the same with the pick up back to the port - there was no clear instructions for this pick up either. The trip was good but there needs to be more clarity on these items.

Re: Impact from rfc1918 leaks2003-10-11 02:04:06
On zaterdag, okt 11, 2003, at 09:40 Europe/Amsterdam, Leif Johansson
|>Tell that to the root zone operators and brace for the reaction. | Root zone operators, meaning like Verisign? Yes. I recently sat in on a presentation from the operators of I.root-servers.net. Currently 8-10% of queries are from rfc1918 addrs and 3.6% of queries are for rfc1918 .in-addr.arpa records. That is not an insignifficant number of queries. My argument was (is) that having RFC 1918 routes or packets escape doesn't add additional problems on top of the fundamental problem that routes or packets with the wrong addresses get out. Letting out wrong (non-RFC 1918) addresses hurts the legitimate holder of those addresses. With RFC 1918 addresses this isn't a problem. I don't think another 10% load on the root nameservers is a huge deal, so I wouldn't use the word "harmful" but I guess this is a special case as a resolving nameserver that uses an RFC 1918 address isn't going to receive a reply for its queries to the root, so it will keep repeating those queries over and over again. I read a report that only 2% of the hits on the root servers is both legitimate and useful anyway.

No Money For The Needy But Uncle Sam Spends Billions Promoting Religion
(Source: blackfreethinkers, via hairtrending)
"Confusing messages being conveyed by the entertainment industry, media, proponents of
"medical" marijuanaalcohol, andpoliticaladvertising campaigns tolegalize all marijuanapromote alcohol use perpetuate the false notion thatmarijuanaalcohol use is harmless and aim to establish commercial access to the drug. This significantly diminishes efforts to keep our young people drug free and hampers the struggle of those recovering from addiction.Marijuana and other illicit drugsAlcohol, cigarettes and prescription drugs are addictive and unsafe especially for use by young people. The science,though still evolvingin terms of long-term consequences, is clear:marijuanaAlcohol use is harmful. Independent from the so called'gateway effect'social use—marijuanaalcohol on its own is associated with addiction, respiratory and mental illness, poor motor performance, and cognitive impairment, among other negative effects including but not limited to direct poisoning, heart disease, liver disease, cancer, coma, urinary track dysfunction and DEATH. ."— Excerpt from the 2011 National Drug Control Strategy
I made some edits (strike through and bold). Of course, I find this official government policy ironic because of the well know studies that find that completely legal Alcohol is the Most Harmful Drug. And just so happens to be the drug of choice of most politicians, including the president himself! I automatically felt like I was reading a paragraph about alcohol use when I read this. I, for one, am very happy to see more and more TV shows and movies that involve stoner characters. The stigma associated with pot is FAR more harmful than the drug itself.

Ratings: Third 'The Apprentice' episode gets crushed in 'American Idol' matchup
By Reality TV World staff, 01/22/2004
So much for those
reality show ratings records
that the second episode of NBC's
The Apprentice
set last week.
Not only did Monday's third season premiere of FOX's
American Idol
recent record Adults 18-49 performance
, but airing directly against
first broadcast in its normal Wednesdays 8 PM time period, a special 8PM ET broadcast of
in the ratings, drawing more than twice as many total viewers.
While the third epsiode broadcast of
The Apprentice
achieved NBC's highest Adults 18-49 rating with regular programming in the Wednesday 8 PM ET hour in almost three years (since March 28, 2001), according to updated in-home viewing figures from Nielsen Media Research, the program still placed a distant second to FOX's
American Idol
broadcast in all key metrics.

On the bright side for NBC,
performance was still enough to score a dramatic 63% improvement versus NBC's season average in the slot (4.9 vs. 3.0) while in total viewers,
The Apprentice
was up 43% versus NBC's time period average (12.3 vs. 8.6 million). Additionally,

Should I Report? Pages PREV 1 2 3 4 5 NEXT | |
Kind of like life giving you more reason to do it Of course maybe this guy was just driving down the street, then happens to see a naked little girl. Might of not cared and already had another target, but this just looks to damn good. Pretty much like when your walking by something thats smells good, then all of a sudden you want pizza. Like to say that just because shes naked doesn't mean it's 100% going to happen, but you never know. Even you don't know, I don't know, we are both just guessing. There are statistics about a family member doing it, but where is the one about naked children on a front lawn. Ever show me that statistic, then we have something to base it on. | |
Tell me about it - not to mention it makes my hair go floppy. Oh, the struggles of my life. Indeed, I hear paedophiles are thoroughly repelled by a striking set of trunks. That's actually how I choose my women - although it makes the selection process quite limited. OT: The nine-year-old is cutting it a little fine, if only because I don't know any nine year olds who'd wanna run around naked still. I mean, I don't actually know any nine-year-olds, I just mean... err... It's just perfectly normal really. | |
Well, I don't see the big deal with it. Depending on where you live, it's freakin' hot. It's 90 where I am and kids tend to be naked, it's just what kids do (Especially under 5). They don't understand modesty. Nothin' wrong with it, legally unless someone is like, er, molesting them or something. Otherwise, let kids be kids. | |
Pretty much not saying your giving all that info. Every once in awhile you get somebody that becomes the snitch detective. Of course some people have nothing better to do than find out who called the cops on them. Pretty out there and not true, but I have seen it happen. Literally remember another time that this bouncer looking dude came to my door all pissed off. Eventually I told him it wans't me that called the cops on him and he stormed off. | |
Doesn't bother me, I was bullied most of my childhood, I know how those idiots work. If someone is stupid enough to attack me, they'd better kill me because I'll take everything they own. Also: | |
Not getting it man. Okay so for the ninth time, lets talk about how people think. Really crude looking child molester is driving down the road. Makes his way around the corner and then bam, naked little girl. After all maybe he had another target, but this is to good to pass up. naked child can just as easily be kidnapped as a non naked one. Literally think being buck fucking naked is not going to steer the child molester in that direction. | |
Not everywhere is as tight as 'Merica. Tell me OP do you enjoy being naked? Not getting dressed imediatly after a shower? Why wreck the kids fun? | |
'naked child can just as easily be kidnapped as a non naked one' Yeah, that's what those other eight people were saying, I presume. Swimwear or no swimwear makes very little difference. | |
It's just nudity, I don't see the problem. But, if you see someone staring longingly, and taking pictures... THEN CALL DATELINE NBC!!!! SCREW THE AUTHORITIES! WE NEED CHRIS HANSON! | |
Don't report it, that's way OTT. That said, I totally freaking agree. I mean toddlers is fine, but 9 is a bit freaking ridiculous. I'm now going to take this opportunity to have a racist rant. Apologies. I can no longer stand summer holidays in europe due to nudists, the vast majority of which, in my experience, are German. I'll take all the obnoxious American tourist stereotypes ahead of them. In particular I went on holiday to Gran Canaria with my family and suffered the annoying, and incredibly clich�d, fate of never being able to sit by the pool because some fuckwad put their towel down at like 5am and will defend it til the last. So we decided to take a day out hiking inland with a pretty cool German tour guide (Gran Canaria is a big spot for German tourists) who took us up by all the man made lakes of the island, surrounded by astonishing sandstone cliffs, like a lush version of death valley. We finally ended the walk at a beautiful lake. I stood there, admiring the view and casually skimming stones across the surface of the lake. This was the first nice day of the holiday I'd had so far. Next thing I know, two of the 80 year old German tourists are next to me, getting into the lake COMPLETELY naked, jiggling wildly as they make their way across the rocks at the waters edge. I'm not saying everyone needs to be ashamed of their bodies, but those two should've been at least slightly shameful of their repugnant leathery hides! ... I just ran. | |
I have to agree with you, nine is to old to be running around naked in public. It may even be unsafe for the children, as would be pedophiles may see this as an opportunity. Call me prudish, but I even think five is to old for this kind of thing. Don't tattle on them though, just lie and tell them you will if you see this kind of thing again. | |
Honestly you don't have much of anything to bring to the police. Far as I can tell its not necessarily illegal, but they are pushing it with the 9 year old. | |
So your saying a pedophile wouldn't be more sexually aroused by a naked child then they would be by a clothed child, ridiculous. | |
Unless someone is being hurt or otherwise abused, what they do on their property is their business. So in other words, unless these kids are being abused or mistreated in some way I suggest you let it be. Kids like to run around in the buff, what's the big deal? | |
Kids being kids? Who the hell cares? | |
Except that's not what he said. If someone was going to kidnap a child, how clothed they are wouldn't play a role in the outcome. | |
Well, the cops will likely want to know your name. They have a tendency to treat unnamed complaints as less important. Plus, this isn't the eighties. They'll know where the call came from. Also, you've complained to them. Assume the cops do show up. Gee, wonder who they'll suspect. | |
I'm saying the difference it makes is extremely marginal when they're having to consider the fact that they're grabbing the child in broad fucking daylight (especially when all we're talking about is a swimming costume). I'm pretty sure that being attracted to kids isn't linked to being a complete fucking moron. | |
I'd like to know how the fact that the family is Mexican plays into this story. | |
Man a lot of people think Child molesters are like Moths to a naked flame and that they're going to stroll up and just take the kid in broad daylight. Are you kidding? According to the OP the entire neighbourhood is watching these kids and passers-by simply CANNOT avert their gaze; They couldn't be safer from abduction OR molestation, they're under constant fucking surveillance by everybody. apparently. | |
Cultural differences play a huge factor in things such as attitudes towards nudity, so kinda relevant. | |
That actually sounds like a really chill way to spend a day. I should try that. | |
No, it's not linked to being a complete fucking moron, but it is psychological, and if you think all these pedophiles are working out detailed plans on how their going to grab a kid and not get caught your surely mistaken. It's emotionally driven, if they were thinking clearly they wouldn't kidnap a kid in the first place, but there impulsive because their mentally sick. So, do I think a naked nine year old may be the thing that pushes the pedo to the point of kidnapping? Yes, yes I do. Think about which is more arousing: woman/man in bathing suit/woman/man completely nude. This seems like a no-brainer to me. | |
Paedophile =/= child molester Also, blaming the fact the child was naked is like blaming a woman who got raped because her skirt was too short. | |
Put some goddamned clothes on your goddamned kids. | |
Okay, I would be okay with nudity if they were anywhere else, but the front yard? Come on, they have the right to look at my perfect house but I am forced to look at theirs? (if you don't get the reference don't bother replying) Also, 9 is pushing it. I don't see why looking at a pic of a naked 9 year old on a computer makes you an evil bastard but when it's in real life "nudity is harmless" Brofist. Never given my name to the police, believer on the 2nd A, and I live near lots of old people too. I give my first name and another family name and "vague" information of where I live. It worked for loud 2 AM parties. They don't care about fake info. That was anything but victim blaming. | |
So, If some pedo is driving around looking for a kid to kidnap, you don't think the naked one is going to be more tempting? | |
Obviously it's more arousing, still unlikely to make a difference - especially in the situation you see to be coming from, in that it's the difference between them driving/walking past the kid or kidnapping them on a complete bloody whim. | |
You should :D I like it best in a really quiet part of a town, preferably by the beach, with a radio in the background playing music I've never heard before. And drink cappuccino all day. Really relaxing. | |
I never said I was blaming the child, and I don't think it's ever the victims fault, no matter the age. I do feel like that comment was uncalled for though, so play nice or play with someone else. Where talking about a situation that neither of us are apart of, so there's really no need to attack me. | |
I dunno...Camber Sands is pretty bitchin. I remember running up and down it when I was younger, god that was a huge beach. I would avoid places like Hastings beach though, fuck knows what is in that water. | |
Hardly an attack. What you're suggesting is that in order to prevent a child from ever being the victim of nudity based abduction, they must never be nude in public. While we're at it, let's stop children from ever leaving the house. That's bound to reduce the chances of them getting abducted too, right? What you're talking about is so minute that it's not even an issue. You could get hit by a bus tommorow. Better never cross the road, ever again. | |
So, if you don't mind me asking, what is wrong with it? What about that picture makes you want to report it to the police ? | |
Okay, your opinion is that it wouldn't make a difference, and my opinion is that your terribly wrong. I don't know what else to say. | |

Image Gallery: First look at the Nokia E71
Summary: Nokia created the Eseries devices to appeal to the enterprise/business user and has both QWERTY and standard phone form factor devices. The QWERTY devices have evolved from the chunky and wide E61 to the slimmer E61i and now to the even slimmer Nokia E71. The E71 is almost exactly the same size as the iPhone with a focus on messaging and creation, rather than media consumption. It is an extremely classy, well constructed, and beautiful device that may appeal to those outside the enterprise market.

Upcycling used plastic bags is a great way to reduce the numbers that end up polluting our environment, plus you wind up with some really cool new things that you can keep and use or give away as unique gifts. What you can do. Create base materials to upcycle your old plastic bags into cool, reuseable products. Now that the base materials are sorted out, grab your knitting needles, sewing machine or crochet hooks and get to work on some amazing creations. Projects Coming soon. Please, check back. |

Having more control options is never a bad thing. Vivint agrees, announcing plans to add the Vivint Secondary Panel into its mix.
The new product is designed to work with the company's Go!Control panel, which serves as the hub of Vivint's home automation system. The company says that the new panel will make the system's smart home features easier to access, allowing for up to four additional panels to be placed throughout the home.
"Vivint's Go!Control system gives our customers the ability to easily manage every aspect related to their home's automation system," says Jim Nye, vice president of product management at Vivint. "We also have a mobile app that allows our customers to stay connected to their system no matter where they are. However, we heard from several users who thought that when they were at home, having all those features centralized in one control panel wasn't always convenient."
Each 4.3-inch touchscreen delivers one-touch arm and disarm alarm capabilities, visual and audible status updates, lighting and appliance control, thermostat control, alerts, and a spot to check the date, time and weather.
The Vivint Secondary Panel sells for $180 each. It can be added to one of Vivint's home control packages, which start at $49.99 per month (not including touchpanels and other hardware). For more information about packages, products and fees, check out the Vivint website.

Remember Racquel Bailey? The New Jersey woman who spent $1,500 - her "last money for the year" - to have her handsome visage plastered on a billboard near Tyler Perry Studios because she so badly wants to be in one of his movies?
SOMEONE GET HER ON THE PHONE because Perry just announced on Facebook that he's hosting an online contest to win a walk-on roll in an upcoming film. Granted, the contest appears to be a method of promoting "Madea's Witness Protection," but, hey, a walk-on roll.
Here's what Perry says about it to his "online family":
For a long time now, people have been asking me how they can be in one of my movies, plays or TV shows. Even as I read through my message board, the most popular question I see is, "How can I be in one of your movies?"So... this one's for YOU! Now's your chance to earn a walk on role in one of my upcoming productions!
Just enter the Tyler Perry Talent Search at http://youtube.com/tylerperrystudios
I've created this competition to give my entire online family a chance to showcase their talent, and I expect to see some future stars. Even better, you'll be responsible for picking the Top 10 finalists. That's right... you get to vote for your favorite videos! Then, I'll personally choose the winner from your Top 10.
The competition starts NOW, so go to http://youtube.com/tylerperrystudios and follow steps 1, 2 & 3 to participate.
Voting closes and the Top 10 will be announced on June 29th the same day MADEA'S WITNESS PROTECTION hits theaters.
Then, I'll personally choose the winner on July 6th.
Alright, alright, stop yelling.
When you go to the You Tube page, there's a trailer for "Madea's Witness Protection," which I very much recommend watching (hell, I'll post it after the jump). The premise is that a man (Eugene Levy) and his family (Denise Richards, Doris Roberts) have to go into hiding from the mob so they go live with Madea. What? I don't know. I wonder what Eugene Levy thinks about things. Life and things.

(adjective) Describes trees and shrubs that shed their leaves at the end of the growing period, often with brilliant color, followed by a period of dormancy. These plants typically have woody stems and broad, flat leaves. Shedding leaves in winter or the dry season is a natural adaptation to conserve water and survive harsh weather. Examples of deciduous trees include maples, oaks, birches, aspens and elms.
Because deciduous trees frequently bear flowers and fruit, they are a vital food source for many birds, not only from the fruit and nectar itself, but also through the insects the tree attracts for pollination that the birds can then feed on. After the leaves are shed, the leaf litter can also provide birds with everything necessary for survival: food, water, shelter and nesting materials.

I just use the screen cloth that came with my iPad. No liquids or wipes just the cloth and it works a treat. Leaves no residue or streaks like wipes do.
Hmmmm, I didn't get a screen cloth with my ipad2. :-(Quote:

I doubt anyone got a cleaning cloth with their iPad. Maybe it came with some accessory, but definitely not with the iPad box.
From page 35:
Cleaning iPad
To clean iPad, unplug all cables and turn of iPad (press and hold the Sleep/ Wake
button, then slide the onscreen slider). Use a soft, slightly damp, lint-free cloth. Avoid
getting moisture in openings. Don't use window cleaners, household cleaners, aerosol
sprays, solvents, alcohol, ammonia, or abrasives to clean iPad. The iPad screen has an
oleophobic coating; simply wipe the screen with a soft, lint-free cloth to remove oil
left by your hands. The ability of this coating to repel oil will diminish over time with
normal usage, and rubbing the screen with an abrasive material will further diminish
its effect and may scratch your screen.
just a damp mico fiber towel they work the best
Oh dear, been using baby wipes for nine months. It lives, it works, it cleans and smells fresh.....
Don't use Windex or any other cleaners. Apple claims that the use of cleaners over time will wear of the special coating off the glass.
Use a woven microfiber cloth used for cleaning lenses. Apple has them for a lot of money, or you can find the same thing at Rite Aid Pharmacy in their eyeglass cleaning department for about $5.
Gently wipe and/or blow away any large grit from the screen, then gently wipe the fingerprints off with the cloth waded up. Shake out the cloth frequently and wash it every so often. The glass cleans very easily with no damage.
I bought 6 or 7 cloths and keep them everywhere I usually use my iPad.

Morning all
I remembered TM and Smack just the other day talked about Mavericks up North, well the Super Bowl of Surfing is this weekend, the waves are suppose to be anywhere from 30 to 50 feet high due to the recent winds.
My friend who use to lived in Camarillo, and travels all around the world and takes surf photos will most likely be there getting some good shots of the action, as of two days ago he was in Hawaii on Oahu's North Shore and saw the awesome pics he took of the Pipe and Sunset.
For anybody interested at wanting to see some really awesome photos of his just go to thatsmepics.com and hit freesurf photos and music.
He is a gentle giant and I'm proud to call Terry my friend.

Impacting a Global Campus for Jesus
December 2 2013 at 12:33 pm 0 CommentsOneU-MC (Montgomery College) team leader Angel Cabrera recently shared his gratitude with the pastors and staff for their support of the new campus ministry, citing two stories of God's faithfulness to reach students through OneU-UMD's ministry (The University of Maryland). Check out his letter below and the OneU website to learn more about OneU and support its mission to impact a global campus for Jesus.
Dear Covenant Life,
Because of your generous gift to OneU, I am now able to fully give myself to the MC campus! Thank you! I am beyond grateful for you. I am excited for this first semester of investing into the campus.
One of the main reasons our team views MC as strategic is because of its international student population. There are 168 nations represented at MC! What a joy to be able to partner with what God is calling us to do globally through a local campus.
I also wanted to share two stories that have recently come in from the University of Maryland (UMD) team. I pray that we will have similar stories to share from MC as we begin to infiltrate that campus with the gospel:
The first story is of an Islamic exchange student and his wife who lived near our staff. We would have dinners, Bible studies, and simple times of fun with them. They had complications with their twins (who were born pre-maturely), so our team of staff and students would regularly come together to help meet their practical needs. This couple was dumbfounded as to why we would do this … and it allowed for even more gospel conversations. We told them that because we have received the ultimate gift in Jesus, we were free to give our material possessions to those in need.
This student recently sent our team a message that he is reading a Bible that he keeps hidden in his clothes now that he's back in his homeland. He is also currently reading "Mere Christianity" by C.S. Lewis and wants to Skype with us to converse more about Christianity and the Trinity. Isn't this awesome?
Recently, a Lebanese missionary ministering in another Muslim nation was beaten with a rod for sharing the gospel. While we pray for bold missionaries to be developed and deployed in all nations that are closed to the gospel, we are actively doing what we can to reach them right here in our backyard. Please continue to pray for our efforts and the efforts of the men and women who boldly proclaim Christ in-country.
We also had the opportunity to befriend and share the gospel with a student from China. She would faithfully come out to our weekly "Story of God" study and as a result of the Spirit's work, placed her faith in Jesus last fall. We were able to have a lot of conversations with her about not only embracing her faith in the Savior, but taking this good news to her own country as well.
Recently, she sent us an e-mail saying that she has been sharing her faith with her family in Asia. Her mother has started attending a local church after seeing tangible ways that the gospel has transformed her daughter's life. Praise the Lord!
My prayer is that we would hit the 168 nations represented at MC with a movement only the gospel and the Spirit could get the credit for.
Thank you for your gifts, your partnership and your prayers!

Members Meeting Recap, Part 5
November 27 2013 at 12:32 pm 0 CommentsThis is our fifth post recapping what various pastors shared at the November 17 Members Meeting. Previous posts:
• Part 4: Isaac Hydoski on Small Group Ministry
• Part 3: Kenneth Maresco on Non-Staff Elders
• Part 2: Don DeVries on The Role of a Pastor
• Part 1: Mark Mitchell on Reorganization
Braden Greer on "Governing Documents" – Sunday, Nov. 17
Back in April of this year we decided to delay the ratification of our church constitution. We had made a lot of good progress, but there were two main reasons the delay seemed prudent:
1. We had begun work on six priorities early in the year (agreeing on strategic vision, reorganizing the staff, creating a process for installing non-staff elders, evaluating the role of a pastor, etc.) and realized that the outcome of these projects would likely impact our governance structures.
2. Members gave helpful counsel when we presented the previous drafts of the constitution that clarified the need to do more work on our primary governing documents.
Robin, Keith and I were tasked by the Board of Elders to refine and simplify:
• The Statement of Faith
• The Constitution
• The Membership Agreement
Orderly governance documents and structures don't make ministry happen—but they are necessary to provide the context for peaceful decision making and handling of difficult situations.
God has always sought peace with his people, and that peace was founded on the clarity of the Covenants he made with his people. These Covenants spelled out expectations and consequences. Working from a similar principle, governing documents should be designed to foster unity of doctrine and practice and clarify expectations and consequences for the entire congregation. This helps give guidance when navigating day-to-day decisions and the more occasional difficult situations that arise in the life of a church.
To get input and perspective, we have assembled a team of seven members who are critical thinkers with theological acuity.
Here's the basic process that we are following for each of the three documents:
1. Send the proposed draft to the seven members.
2. Ask them to read it carefully and send any and all feedback.
3. Then we gather in person to discuss any feedback that needs further explanation and to work together towards solutions.
4. Then Robin, Keith, and I will review the proposed changes.
5. We will then submit these documents for review to the entire Board of Elders.
6. The Board will carefully review and vote on whether to provisionally approve these documents.
7. Next the documents will be presented to the congregation for review and discussion and eventually put to a vote of ratification.
8. If ratified by the congregation, these documents will then become our new governing documents.
At this point we (that is Robin, Keith, myself and the seven members) have read the Statement of Faith together, and the team effort has greatly helped to add clarity, precision and balance. It's been an encouraging time of working together to carefully craft language that reflects the teaching of Scripture.
Currently, this team of members and elders is reading over a revised draft of the constitution, and we will gather to discuss feedback later this week.
Then in early December the team will review and help refine our proposed membership agreement.
Our hope is that all three documents will be presented to the Board of Elders in mid-December and then presented to the congregation for review and discussion sometime in the new year with a goal to seek ratification in the spring of 2014. Lord willing, these revisions in our governance structures will afford a more orderly transition as we receive non-staff elders and grow our church.
Any prayer you offer up is sincerely appreciated because we really do want the wisdom of God so as to govern the church for her good.

Mission Trip to Haiti, November 2-9
November 25 2013 at 5:56 pm 0 Comments"For the love of Christ controls us, because we have concluded this: that one has died for all, therefore all have died; and he died for all, that those who live might no longer live for themselves but for him who for their sake died and was raised." —2 Corinthians 5:14-15
Those verses rang true for 12 members of Covenant Life Church on their medical mission trip to Cap-Haïtien, Haiti, November 2-9. When a young man asked why a team from the United States would travel such a distance to help people in a foreign country, team members were able to answer that Jesus' work in Christians' lives motivates us to love and serve others, both around our homes and around the world. Because of Christ's love for us we are able to value others and proclaim him through our words and actions.
As with previous trips, the team was warmly welcomed by believers from the House of Prayer & Worship, pastored by Isaac Albert, and Jesus Foundation ministry. The first event the team attended was a 6 a.m. worship service lasting three hours!
The team devoted the rest of their time in Haiti to medical and dental clinics and leadership training for pastors and small group leaders. They saw roughly 400 patients including 60 students from Pastor Isaac's school. They treated everything from toothaches and minor pains to more challenging cases like high blood pressure and diabetes. Some patients had to wait for hours to be seen, even having to return the next day, but there was patience and peace throughout the week. The team was also able to visit an orphanage and provide medical and dental checkups to the teenagers there.
All of the 20 men who attended the leadership training classes were hungry for biblical truth and committed to learning how to better disciple God's people. Some traveled as much as five hours!
Glory to God for the seeds that were planted. Between the medical clinic, leadership training, and time in the orphanage, the team had many opportunities to share the love of Christ and the good news of his death and resurrection with the people of Haiti.
Executive Pastor, Mark Mitchell said, "The Lord is wonderfully at work in Haiti. What a privilege it's been to have a front row seat in this small way to what the Lord has been doing!"
Thank you to those who prayed and supported this trip in other ways. We look forward to sharing more trip highlights and reflections from members of the team over the coming weeks.
