Cheney's Twisted LogicPosted on Mar 2, 2007
Vice President Dick Cheney has once again confused supporting the troops with supporting a surge of troops into Iraq. "Anyone can say they support the troops ... . But the proof will come when it's time to provide the money and the support," Cheney said, referring to a bill that would fund the escalation. If his administration's record is any indication, keeping the troops far away from the maelstrom of Iraq is the best support they could possibly hope for.

By LANCE, March 3, 2007 at 8:10 am Link to this comment Mark my words the Bush Company is fudging the numbers in Iraq. They are fudging the books on the money and they are faking the KIAs and the collateral damage. Dead Americans are more likely 12,000.
By chuck i, March 3, 2007 at 8:08 am Link to this comment cheney is evil. he is darth vadar. bush is in a galaxy far away. they both have their head in the sand. they choose not to see the DAILY BLOODSHED IN IRAQ!! they want more troops to die for what victory? sadam is dead & there is a new administration. follow the brits & start a timetable for withdrawl of our troops NOW!
By Fadel Abdallah, March 3, 2007 at 1:07 am Link to this comment To call Cheny a "man of twisted logic" is indeed an overstatement and overrating. He is a devilish beast devoid of any logic at all. Logic is a characteristic of human beings, but to equate an evil beast with logic is a contradiction. Let's call him the evil beast that he is.
By Gary Maxwell, March 2, 2007 at 12:50 pm Link to this comment Our troops defeated the Iraqi military in record time. Our troops captured Saddam. Iraq had elections to set up a new government. The new Iraq court executed Saddam. Looks to me like we already won. It is time to bring our troops home in victory.
By felicity, March 2, 2007 at 12:18 pm Link to this comment In 1973 Cheney said, "...the presidency is like one of those giant medicine balls. If you get a hold of it, what you do is you keep pushing that ball and you never let the other team push back." That little gem pretty well explains Cheney. Not to mention that he's mouthing the old, AND discredited Domino Theory - different cast, set and staging, same scrip. That lovely theory put us in Korea and Vietnam. (Dulles was going around at the time saying that if Korea/Nam fell billions of Chinese communists would storm the world, armed to the teeth and out for blood.) So for 40 years we "fought" a myth. Are we going to spend 40 years "fighting" this new myth? This time it'll probably bankrupt us.
By peter staff, March 2, 2007 at 11:12 am Link to this comment I DO BELIEVE THAT CHENEY'S HEART PROBLEMS HAS CUT THE BLOOD FLOW TO HIS BRAIN. HE CAN NOT SEE WHAT IS RIGHT IN FRONT OF HIM. ANY KIND OF VICTORY IN IRAQ IS IMPOSSIBLE. THE ONLY WAY IS VIETNAM TYPE PULL OUT . THIS WILL STOP THE BLEEDING OF AMERICANS BOTH IN BLOOD AN WEALTH.
By mite, March 2, 2007 at 10:57 am Link to this comment If censorship is not put upon this comment i direct the people to view a couple of DVD's available on google.com. Freedomtofascism and Terrorstorm: Cheney with his hegelian doctrine is going to create another >911< >Pearl Harbor< as described in the CFR's New American Century report of 2000. This individual (Cheney) and others want another act of aggression to pro-long world war for decades. You watch people another act of murder and gencide will be happening soon by these mad men.
By Dale Headley, March 2, 2007 at 10:34 am Link to this comment For Dick Cheney, the war in Iraq has been about one thing: his Halliburton stock, which is now worth multi-millions of dollars more than it was before the war. And Deadeye Dick knows that the longer he keeps American soldiers sacrificing in Iraq; and the longer he can drain the U.S. treasury to support it; the richer he will become.
By Quy Tran, March 2, 2007 at 10:26 am Link to this comment It looks very funny when a monkey tries to be human beings. Cheney's star and that of Rumsfeld were already fading away long time ago.
By John Motisi, March 2, 2007 at 9:16 am Link to this comment Words direct from the mouth of a walking dushbag. The inconveniet truth is that Iraq is front for the war on terror because shrub and the dick made it so. He's a total waste of skin.
By Gandersen, March 2, 2007 at 8:33 am Link to this comment Unfortunately we are at a point of no return. If the right thing to do is to bring the troops home now, the republicans will not do it because it would hurt the Republican Party and the up coming presidential election. If the right thing to do is to stay and fight, the democrats will not support it because it will hurt the Democratic Party and their upcoming presidential election. This is pure politics and Democracy at its worst. Our men and women are dying for a political argument, not some lofty goal of national security or liberty. People think those who say we are "wasting" American lives are "un American" But, lets look at jut a few facts: *After 3,000+ dead Americans, are we safer (NO) In Fact: When people say our troops are dying as heroes for a good cause, they are wrong. Our Troops are dying as pawns on the republican/democratic chess board. I support our troops but do not support how they are being manipulated and treated. If we leave we loose, If we stay we cant win. Our politicians have put us in this mess and it will scar America and our young country for generations to come.
By Christopher Robin, March 2, 2007 at 8:31 am Link to this comment Let's not even tie the word logic to Cheney. It's just an intellectual red herring. He is "twisted" with the rational of nine year old bully. At least for public purposes.
By Steve Hammons, March 2, 2007 at 7:42 am Link to this comment Cheney continues to create false propagada and feeble psychological manipulations to keep the occupation of Iraq going indefinitely. The invasion of Iraq, led by Cheney and his neocon warmongers and war-profiteer cronies, is the centerpiece of their efforts to control the region and control American society. An attack on Iran or another "Pearl Harbor" terror attack within the US could also be coming with similar goals. Legal consequences for Cheney and his associates are closing in on them. Hopefully, responsible authorities will implement appropriate actions to limit Cheney and his cronies soon.

By Mark Dolce, March 2, 2007 at 7:04 am Link to this comment Same old spin and tactics that have taken the United States into war - a war designed to last forever because it is a war on "terror." How can you have a war on terror? Just like we have a war on drugs? It's a war that never ends and will never end - that's the way it is designed. We Americans let ourselves to be duped by the appointment of George W. Bush as president and he hand picked Dick Cheney to be VP and the installment of this adminstration was off and running. We and our leaders in Congress allowed ourselves to be duped into war to fight "terror" and "terrorists" and now the terrosits are fighting us in Afghanistan. We are fighting terrorist in a place half way around the world. This is not terror. It's our army chasing down individual groups and factions of armed extremists where they are camped out. Terror exists as a pshycological state in the mind - not in Afghanistan. Terror has no boundaries or country. It does not have a uniform or flag. It does not have a political capital or any strategic location or tactical operations base. It is an idea. You cannot kill and idea. You cannot fight ideas with billions of dollars in weapons and manpower. The idea exists is in the mind. It's a war on bad guys and bad thoughts and a war to make us "safer" - another psychological term made to keep us either in "fear" or out of "fear" - take your pick. Americans voted in November for a "change." It is obviously going to take more than this vote to make that change. The amount of deciet and manipulation and outright lies to the American people have gone on so long we have complacently accepted our fate to fight a war that has no end and worse - it is a pre-emptive war. We can attack anyone anywhere we feel necessary at anytime. Where are the palets of cash? What happenend to the money? Bundles of money goes to Iraq and what comes back? Palets of flagged draped bodies - that we as the public are not allowed to see as ordered by the US government. The troops and the debate over the funding of the troops 'is' political posturing. What stupid blind senseless people we are for thinking the troops will or would actually be withdrawn from Iraq when we have had four years to build army bases in Iraq for our US troops to occupy. The United States is never going to leave Iraq - even if we stop fighting the Sunni or Shiite factions - or if they stop fighting themselves - the United States is not leaving Iraq - even if it falls into multiple countries and states. The United States is not going to leave Iraq because of oil. And we will never put enough sanctions on Iran for enriching uranium to stop it from selling or profiting from the sale of their oil becuse China is their biggest buyer - unless we want to go to war with China (pssst…don't tell Bush and Cheney). The Shiite uprising was facilitated by the invasion of Iraq. Now, Shiites allover the Middle East are wanting more power in other countries - like Saudi Arabia. The United States will make sure the Sunni will reign and maintain a power balance in Iraq - this is what we need to reduce our US troop level for - to get out of a civil war between people who have been fighting for 1200 years. The Saudi's are paranoid the Shiite revolition is going to enter their country. The Saudi government is building a wall/fence from the Persian Gulf to the Mediterranean Sea to keep Shiites out from coming into their country as a result of this uprising and overspill of armed Shiites (armed in the mind with revolution) in Iraq. Let the Sunni and Shiite fight till they drop - our US troops can stand by and watch and play referee but not go house to house, building to building or town to town to try and fight Sunni or Shiite "terrorists." We had our Civil War - let them have theirs. |

After a few days of teasers from the cannabis-beer-swigging dudes at The Craft Beer Project, the details for the Hop and Vine Festival have finally been revealed. Completely unlike any other beer festival yet staged in South Africa, this winter craft beer and wine celebration is the second of many being organised by the Craft Beer Project, (You can find a review of the first one here) and is probably the first to collaborate with wine producers on their own grounds. I'm giddy with excitement.

December 2 , 2013
Beginning the Church's liturgical year, Advent (from, "ad-venire" in Latin or "to come to") is the season encompassing the four Sundays (and weekdays) leading up to the celebration of Christmas.
The Advent season is a time of preparation that directs our hearts and minds to Christ's second coming at the end of time and also to the anniversary of the Lord's birth on Christmas. The final days of Advent, from December 17 to December 24, focus particularly on our preparation for the celebrations of the Nativity of our Lord (Christmas).
Advent devotions including the Advent wreath, remind us of the meaning of the season. Our Advent calendar above can help you fully enter in to the season with daily activity and prayer suggestions to prepare you spiritually for the birth of Jesus Christ.

About Advent Wreaths
The purple candles in particular symbolize the prayer, penance, and preparatory sacrifices and goods works undertaken at this time. The rose candle is lit on the third Sunday, Gaudete Sunday, when the priest also wears rose vestments at Mass; Gaudete Sunday is the Sunday of rejoicing, because the faithful have arrived at the midpoint of Advent, when their preparation is now half over and they are close to Christmas.
The progressive lighting of the candles symbolizes the expectation and hope surrounding our Lord's first coming into the world and the anticipation of his second coming to judge the living and the dead.

Our third day on Spider-Man was a hot one. We had two cameras [of an older, hotter design] in rain bags at 48FPS baking in the sun all day long. It got HOT in that bag and the cameras never missed a beat... they weren't even close to being in trouble.
As of today, SSDs are the only released recording method. RED has announced that there will be more... it's just that SSDs came first. And they rock.
This falls into that "early build" thing, I'll leave it alone for now.

Keith Urban, Kenny Chesney, Lady Antebellum and Darius Rucker are all incredibly popular as Country Music stars. But they've all had very different experiences with awards shows.
But they're all excited about the nominations they received on Sept. 9 for the 43rd CMA Awards.
Urban received four nominations: Entertainer of the Year, Male Vocalist of the Year, Album of the Year for Defying Gravity and a shared nomination with Brad Paisley for the Video of the Year for "Start a Band."
"This is absolutely awe inspiring," Urban said. "I've never loved playing music as much as I have this year. The response to the new album has been divine and, given the crazy times we're in, the celebratory atmosphere and positive energy night after night on this particular tour has been nothing short of a miracle ... and we're not even done yet."
Chesney, who has four CMA trophies for Entertainer of the Year, is nominated again for the same honor, sharing the category with Urban, Brad Paisley, George Strait and Taylor Swift. He is also nominated in the Male Vocalist division and for his collaboration with singer-songwriter Mac McAnally on "Down the Road."
"The more you do this, the more those nominations mean," Chesney said. "You realize what it takes to receive an honor like this -- especially from your peers who make it happen and know the work and commitment it takes. You've got to be humbled knowing what you do is recognized."
While they were performing in Switzerland, Lady Antebellum heard about their two nominations for Group of the Year and Single of the Year for "I Run to You."
"Being halfway around the world and hearing that we got two CMA nominations is totally surreal," said band member Charles Kelley. "We're so far from home, but we're also really connected to Nashville because there are so many fans over here who absolutely love country music. Being in the group of the year category is just unbelievable because we feel like we're only getting started. We still have so much to write about and say and do as artists. We honestly will never get used to seeing our name in the same category as the Eagles or Rascal Flatts."
Before joining the Country Music family, Darius Rucker had success as lead vocalist for Hootie & the Blowfish. Now Rucker has received CMA nominations for New Artist and Top Male Vocalist on the heels of several No. 1 singles from his album, Learn to Live.
"Everything with this record has been wild, and this really caps the year we've had with these two honors," Rucker said.
This year's CMA Awards show takes place Nov. 11 at Nashville's Sommet Center and will be broadcast on ABC.

Helicopter to remove plane wreckagein the Everglades

Posted: 11/15/2011
SUBURBAN BOYNTON BEACH, Fla. - UPDATE: A heli crane was able to recover most of the plane wreckage Tuesday and the bodies of the two victims, according to the National Transportation Safety Board.
Names of the victims in Sunday's crash have still not been released.
The data module inside the single engine aircraft was located and is considered to be a helpful piece to figure out what happened.
NTSB also said it was found that the parachute inside the aircraft was not used.
Reported by Ryan Calhoun/NewsChannel 5
Today, authorities will try to find the bodies of the pilot and passenger of a crashed single-engine plane half-buried in muck in the middle of a swampy wildlife refuge.
They believe the victims are still in the 2008 Cirrus SR-22.
Dennis Diaz, investigator for the National Transportation Safety Board, and other investigators headed out to the site - about 9 miles north and 3 miles east of a makeshift command center - around 9:30 a.m. today.
At about noon, they will send a helicopter equipped with a sling to recover the wreckage.
"The parts aren't small enough to pick out with an airboat, and we can't drive a crane out there," Diaz said this morning. "So this is our only option."
He said the priority is recovering the bodies, which are believed to still be inside the plane's wreckage, so the Palm Beach County Medical Examiner's Office can determine the exact cause of death.
In that area, there is about a foot of water on top of the mud, which can be 12 to 17 feet deep, officials said.
On Monday, federal authorities confirmed that the plane was owned by a company registered in Central Florida. It was operated and managed by Air Orlando, a flight school based at Orlando Executive Airport.
Air Orlando's manager, John Painter, said the company pilot was highly experienced and was not on a training flight. The identities of the pilot and passenger have not been released.
Painter said the pilot was in South Florida conducting advanced training in helicopter flying and was on his way back to Orlando when the crash occurred.
"We're dumbfounded," Painter said by telephone Monday, adding that the aircraft was in "great shape" and that the pilot was a professional. "We were all very close to the pilot, so it's a big loss."
The crash occurred at 5:46 p.m. Sunday at the Arthur R. Marshall Loxahatchee National Wildlife Refuge west of Boynton Beach. The site is 12 miles southwest of Palm Beach International Airport, investigators said.
Diaz said the investigation, which could take up to three days, will likely be difficult because it is in a remote area.
Although the SR-22 does not have a black box, information might be gathered from computer systems, Diaz said.
The NTSB will study the pilot's history, weather, radar data and other factors.
Although the plane is operated by Air Orlando, it is registered to Mann Aviation LLC in Seminole County, which lists about 13 private aircraft on its roster. Calls to the company's registered agent, Jeffrey Mann, were not immediately returned.

When I first photographed an image I was simply trying to put something out there that was more natural looking than it was when I saw it as a photograph
I wanted a more genuine quality of the image and in order to get that and to return to what the image originally was, I decided to rework the photo the same way as it was first worked on
I did not consider myself as a photographer, I considered myself as an artist. RICHARD PRINCE (Richard Prince interviewed by Noemi Smolik, But how real is my art, that is the question, Richard Prince: Photographs 1977-1993, Hannover, 1994, p. 27). Untitled (Cowboy), 1980-1984, is among Richard Princes most iconic works as well as one of his most emblematic images. For his Cowboys series, conceived in the early 1980s, Prince appropriated images directly from the glossy Marlboro cigarette advertisements, then re-photographed, cropped and eliminated the text, which once summoned Come to Marlboro Country. Through this process, Prince undermines the supposed naturalness of the image, revealing the meanings engrained therein. Further intensifying their own artifice, this subtle act of re-photographing advertising images and presenting them as his own, initiates a new, critical approach to the production of art. As a response to American consumerism and identity, Princes Cowboys question notions of originality, authorship and the privileged status of the unique art object. It is now widely accepted that Richard Prince was slightly in advance of several other artists in his use of this radical method of appropriation known as re-photography, and that he played a significant role in the development of a new, oppositional type of photographic practice, critically described as postmodernist. He was part of a generation that
used photographic procedures to simultaneously redefine photography and art. (L. Phillips, Richard Prince, New York, 1992, p. 28). The photographic practicefrom classic forerunners like Edward Steichen, Alfred Stieglitz, Paul Strand, and Walker Evans, to exceptional revolutionaries like Man Ray, Paul Outerbridge and John Baldessarihas become one of the most critical mediums in contemporary American culture. With its everchanging technical parameters, the medium transcends any limitations once imposed by its two-dimensionality. Through this dual process of rephotographing, Prince not only revitalizes a populist image, but also resurrects the American cowboy from the prosaic to the extraordinary. Removed from his original advertising campaign, the lonely cowboy becomes a symbol of the American dream, one full of freedoms and pleasures. The American cowboy of the mind is a romantic, monumental pulp-fiction figure
He is Alexander the Great in chaps and boots. He is colorful, masculine to the point of caricature, a license-plate emblem, a billboard, a restaurant chain, a figure of speech indicating rough fun or brash aggressiveness. Abroad he is the representation of America, so deeply is he embedded in our national character and ethos. (A. Proulx, Richard Prince: Spiritual America, New York, 2007, p. 284). Functioning in the public imagination as a symbol of power, strength and masculinity, the cowboy is an icon of American sovereignty. The Marlboro men exemplify this archetype, amplified by backdrops that draw from the traditions of American landscape painting and the spectacle of Hollywood Westerns. In the background of the present lot, Untitled (Cowboy), 1980-1984, two enormous snowcapped mountains flank the central figure. While the riders scale is diminished by the magnanimous landscape, his galloping horse, shadowed face, and vibrant red shirt lend him a sense of power, bravery, and perseverance that challenge the sublime landscape. Unafraid of the capricious environment, the rolling hills, and impending nightfall, this cowboy rides on. The cowboy is the most sacred and mask-like of cultural figures. In both a geographical and cultural sense, a cowboy is an image of endurance itself, a stereotypical symbol of American cinema. He is simultaneously the wanderer and the mythological symbol of social mobility. Even today, the image of the cowboy has not lost its luster. (L. Phillips, Richard Prince, New York, 1992, p. 95). Prince offers varied perspectives of the cowboy in this renowned series; some of the images offer close-ups, while others, like the present lot, illustrate grand vistas of the American landscape. Through these varied pictures, a storyboard of the cowboys mysterious existence and thrilling narrative is tendered. As seen in a similar work, Untitled (Cowboy), 1980-1984, a detail of the cowboys weathered hand fills the composition. His skin is rough and blistered from the scorching desert through which he rides. And between his thick fingers, a lit cigarette burns. While in the present lot, no details of the cowboys identity or person are discernable, one can imagine that his hands and neck reveal the same toughened and masculine skin. The cowboy perseveres no matter his environment; his long journeys lead him through cold winter valleys and arid desert landscapes, all of which pose no match to his strength and fortitude. The dominance of the landscape in the present lot, Untitled (Cowboy), 1980-1984, alludes to both contemporary and historical American landscape painting. The Hudson River School of the Nineteenth Century captured the beautiful vistas of the Hudson River Valley with a romance that glorified and celebrated nature. The renowned painting The Rocky Mountains, Landers Peak, 1863, by Albert Bierstadt, depicts a panoramic view of the American frontier. Here, a lush green valley, cascading waterfall and snowcapped Rocky Mountains fill the composition. The prodigious mountains of Princes Untitled (Cowboy), 1980-1984, seem plucked from this celebrated painting, perhaps as homage to the great tradition of American Landscape painting. Further down the art historical landscape lie Ed Ruschas iconic paintings of enormous mountains graffitied with text. In Above All Else, 2000, two colossal alpine mountains appear. Shadows are cast over their plateaus from their unseen mountainous neighbors, and across the landscape Above All Else is scrawled in white script. The gallivanting cowboy in the present lot challenges Ruschas text, posing himself as an equal to the great landscape. While the Cowboys series is the body of work with which Prince is most commonly associated, it is that with the least personal intervention on his part. Other than some minor compositional adjustments, the images are almost perfect reproductions of the original Marlboro advertisements. Indeed, Prince only started re-photographing these advertising images after the marketing company had stopped using the Marlboro man in their pictures. As the artist himself recalls, Without him as an identifying factor, it was easier to present these pictures as something other than they were. I think thats the way I felt at the time anyway. Other than I was. (L. Phillips, Richard Prince, New York, 1992, p. 95). From this, one might suppose that out of all of Princes works, the ones from this series are his own self-portrait, his mask. In other words, as embodiments of untruth, they are the most truthful. Or, as Prince might say, they are the most convincing; picture-perfect dissimulations. (L. Phillips, Richard Prince, New York, 1992, p. 95). Princes genius in his on-going Cowboys series, now more than thirty years in the making, is that he distills the historical conscience of America into its most undeniable image of itself, and as such [it passes] through culture with no friction. (R. Brooks. A Prince of Light or Darkness? Richard Prince, New York, 2003, p. 56).

Dense 3-D Structure from Image Sequences Using Probabilistic Depth Carving
Annie Yao, Andrew Calway, Dense 3-D Structure from Image Sequences Using Probabilistic Depth Carving. Proceedings of the 14th British Machine Vision Conference (BMVC 2003). ISBN 1 901725 23 5, pp. 211–220. September 2003. PDF, 304 Kbytes.Abstract
We describe an algorithm to determine dense 3-D structure in a static scene from an image sequence captured by a moving camera. Metric camera motions are first determined using a recursive structure from motion algorithm based on tracked feature points. Dense depth information for a subset of key frames is then obtained using a novel probabilistic depth carving algorithm - analogous to space carving - in which depth probabilities obtained locally about the key frames are combined in 3-D space. An important component in this process is that opacity and occlusion relationships are modelled explicitly, enabling consistent combination of the depth probabilities. Results of experiments on a real sequence illustrate the effectiveness of the approach.

lemon cake
Added by maddimouse | Sun 16 Aug 2009 @ 10:07
Lemon cakes are great, especially in the summer. This one is one of the easiest to make that I know.
There is a trick to get a real fluffily cake that I have learned from a pastry chef many years ago, and it always works. Just read the method and you´ll see! Might take some time to do it this way, but the result is defo worth it.
If you want the cake to taste even more lemon-ny, add the zests of an organic lemon.
for the dough:
180 g butter
3 eggs
175 g sugar
little pinch of salt
175 g flour
15 g baking powder
juice of two small lemons
for the icing
one small lemon
100 g powder sugar
Preheat the oven to 160°C and place a oven proof bowl with the butter in it so it does melt.
Prepare all the other ingredients in the meantime. As soon as the butter has melted, place the bowl in the sink that you´ve filled with cold water to cool the butter down to room temperature.
Beat the eggs, sugar and salt until they´ve formed a smooth mass, almost like thick foam. The sugar shoud have completely dissolved by then.
Take some of the melted butter to butter the baking-tin. It should have the size of about half a baking tray.
Carefully add the melt butter and the lemon juice to the eggs, then the flour which is mixed with the baking powder. Mix it all with a whisk or a wooden spoon, it defo has to be manual, not with a food processor or a handmixer!
Pour the dough into the baking-tin and place it in the oven for about 25 to 30 minutes. Start to check on the cake from about 20 minutes, using a wooden toothpick. Quickly stick it into the cake down to the bottom and check on it. As soon as it doesn´t feel sticky anymore the cake is done.
Take the cake out of the oven and let it cool down until it´s almost reached room-temperature. Prepare the icing by mixing the sieved powder sugar and the juice of the lemon. Coat the cake with the icing and wait until it´s set.
Serve in little pieces.
tried this recipe or a similar one? share your tips...
very tasty dish :)<br />

May You Always Dance and Twirl
I came home from a wonderful weekend at the beach with my family to find a special request in my inbox from a customer on etsy. I LOVE special requests and this one was so much fun. I hope the little people who receive these ribbon wands will always have a childish spirit and never forget how much fun it is to dance and twirl. We all should do so more often!

Financial planners who specialize in retirement don't often consider a reverse mortgage to be viable addition to a client's portfolio, but Investmentnews.com blogger Jeff Benjamin disagrees.
Reverse mortgages still aren't widely endorsed by financial advisors who specialize in retirement income and preservation planning as a legitimate portfolio addition for their clients. But that should change, argues Benjamin. The reason is because reverse mortgages are now more cost flexible and economical for borrowers after some fundamental shifts in the industry's cost structures were implemented last year.
Even after 22 years of being available to retirees who are aged 62 and older and own their home outright as a solid source of supplementary income, financial planners haven't put the emphasis on reverse mortgages. That's probably attributable to the high fees and costs that have up until recently been associated with the transaction.
But last year the industry made a significant and collective move to reduce those transaction fees, and for that reason says Benjamin, advisors and consumers alike should be taking a closer look at reverse mortgages as an income vehicle of first resort.
In many common circumstances around the country, a reverse mortgage allows a 62 year old retiree the ability to stay in their home and convert their equity into tax-free income, stretching the preservation of their retirement portfolios.
Benjamin cites in these paragraphs a typical example of how a reverse mortgage can stretch the value of retirement:
"Consider a 75-year-old who is living in a mortgage-free home valued at $350,000 and has a $200,000 retirement portfolio. Assuming a desired after-tax annual income of $27,500, a 6.5% annual retirement account investment return and a 2% annual home value appreciation, turning to a reverse mortgage first would generate total income of $590,000 and fund retirement for 19 years."
However, Benjamin goes on, applying that same criteria to another strategy in which a reverse mortgage is initiated after a retirement portfolio has been spent would fund retirement for only 16 years with a total income of $500,000. The $90,000 is the result of a likely home value market appreciation realized over the course of 19 years.
Maybe it's time for the financial planning industry, especially those who specialize in retirement advising and planning, to take reverse mortgages and the equity-converting model it offers into closer consideration for their clients who will truly benefit.
Benjamin reminds us that those costs have fallen drastically. The reverse mortgage industry introduced the new "saver" option last October as an alternative to charging upfront insurance premium fees. Now, reverse mortgage borrowers can spread the one-time insurance fee over the life of the loan. In addition, lenders have reduced their origination fees significantly, and in some cases, all together.
Is the new reduced fee system the catalyst for mainstream adoption of reverse mortgages as an income vehicle by retirees and their financial advisors? If nothing else, says Benjamin, it should at least be proof that reverse mortgages need to play a part in the average overall retirement plan.

Sponsored Deals
They're like ads, but good.
OK, yes, companies pay a little something to be Sponsored Deals. But we don't allow just any old crap in this section. Sponsored Deals are proposed to us by other retailers, manufacturers, and even other daily deal sites. If we find the deal compelling enough that our members will appreciate us bringing it to their attention, we'll feature it here. Believe it or not, we have a reputation to uphold. If your store would like to be considered for this space, please contact us for details. But if your deal is lame, or sketchy, no amount of money will let you buy your way in.
Community Deals
It's whatever you want it to be.
Pretty much, anyway. This is where you find the deals that wooters like you have ferreted out and brought to light. We're thinking it'll turn into a massive database of discounted products from around the Web, constantly expanding to absorb the newest deals from the very moment their prices are slashed, with each deal immediately rated by hordes of savvy voters to spotlight the very greatest deals in the world today. Hey, we can dream, right?
We use a fancy algorithm to determine which deals are catching the most buzz – they're under the Popular tab, which is the default view of this section. You can look for the most popular deals today, this week, or this month. The Fresh tab features the most recently submitted deals, so that's where to look for deals that everybody else doesn't know about yet. And the Search bar does what a Search bar does, only, uh, much wootier! Yeah! Right on!
Ask The Community
They probably won't bite.
Organic bullets? Vegetarian haggis? Cheap tickets to Antarctica? The best high-performance sweatsocks for under $100? If you're looking for a deal that doesn't appear to show up in our Community Deals section, throw the question to your fellow cheapskates. Or answer a question for one of your fellow cheapskates. Or vote for your favorite questions, or your favorite answers, or… maybe we should call this section "Ask, Answer, Comment On, And Vote In The Community", but that won't fit on the page.

Member countries of the International Energy Agency agreed to establish an emergency reserve of oil of ninety days of the previous year's imports by 1980; by 1985, the U.S. program sought to maintain reserves of at least one billion barrels. See Thomas C. Schelling, Thinking Through the Energy Problem (New York, NY: Committee for Economic Development, 1979) at 28. 325. Bruce W. Wilson, A Review of Factors Relating to the Establishment of a Regional Petroleum Reserve in Hawaii (Honolulu: Department of Business and Economic Development, Nov. 1988) at vii. 326. In particular, Wilson cited the following points in favor of the establishment of a regional petroleum reserve in the State: . A Regional Petroleum Reserve (RPR) should be sited in Hawaii to protect the economy of the State, to ensure the security of the citizens of the State, and to provide for the national defense. Relatively low oil prices would dictate that an RPR in Hawaii be sited and filled with volumes equal to 90 days of consumption as soon as possible. . RPRs were enacted under the Energy Policy and Conservation Act (EPCA) of 1975. Section 157(c) conferred discretionary authority on the Secretary of DOE to establish RPRs--in lieu of central SPR storage- -in insular or petroleum import-dependent areas of the U.S. Hawaii qualifies on both counts; however, DOE has consistently maintained that it is most economic to serve Hawaii from the central SPR on the Gulf Coasts of Texas and Louisiana or from the diversion of tankers at sea carrying Foreign or Alaskan North Slope (ANS) crude oil. . Petroleum represents 90 percent of Hawaii's energy supply, especially transportation fuels. The islands require large volumes of jet fuel for a healthy economy. Endurance time in Hawaii is 30-50 days. . Neither the Gulf Coast nor Alaska will provide energy security for Hawaii during the 1990s, and supplies from the Pacific Basin will become increasingly in tight supply. . During the 1990s, the "developed world" is expected to become more heavily dependent on imported oil as ANS production begins a precipitous decline. The "swing- producers" for imports into the U.S. will be in the MIddle East--especially Saudi Arabia. U.S. import dependence is forecast to rise from 35 percent of total consumption in 1987 to more than 50 percent during the 1990s. . By 1994, it is forecast that Hawaii will be totally dependent on imports for its crude oil supply. The West Coast of the U.S. is expected to import plus or minus one-third of its oil in the late 1990s. . The Pacific Basin imports half of its oil from the Middle East. If there is a supply disruption- -especially one in the Persian Gulf--the Pacific Basin demand for available Australian and Southeast Asian crude oils will increase dramatically. . Figures indicate that U.S. shipping requirements must be met by foreign tankers and the domestic tanker fleet is inadequate to meet disruption scenario demand. There is also a deficiency in the number of small (below 80m dwt) tankers within the domestic U.S. Fleet. Id. at v. 327. Id. at vii. 328. Id. at 83. 329. Id. 330.

SEATTLE -- There were simple economics at play.
Sidney Rice, the Seahawks' highest-paid and No. 1 receiver, had yet to get going in Seattle's first two games. He was too big an investment for that to continue.
Part of his lack of production was because he was still rounding into form after sitting much of the preseason. But part of it was because he didn't have many opportunities, which were reflected in his stats through two games: three catches for 48 yards on eight targets.
Rice blew by those numbers in Sunday's 45-17 thumping of Jacksonville. He was targeted seven times and hauled in five passes for 79 yards and two touchdowns, including one in which he beat double coverage.
"You can't have your eight-million-dollar guy not getting targeted," receiver Doug Baldwin said. "You've got to get him the ball. That's what we pay him for, and you saw it. He did a hell of a job making plays when opportunities came to him."
He wasn't the only receiver who took advantage of more opportunities.
Golden Tate, Seattle's No. 2 receiver, entered with five catches and 70 yards on eight targets. And he, too, blew past those numbers against the Jaguars, hauling in five passes for 88 yards on eight targets. He also had two rushing attempts for 29 yards.
Tate had five catches or more in three games last year, including the playoffs, but many viewed him as a breakout player in training camp. The way he dissected Jacksonville in a variety of ways -- he also averaged 8.3 yards on four punt returns -- looked what many envisioned back then.
"I'm still growing as a player, still growing in this offense, still proving myself," Tate said. "But I think today was definitely a positive step."
Baldwin said Seattle made it a focus to get Rice and Tate more involved this week, but how it happened was pretty simple.
Former Seattle defensive coordinator and current Jacksonville head coach Gus Bradley knew the key to slowing the Seahawks was stopping the run. He geared his defense to do that, but there were two problems.
First, Seattle still rushed for 156 yards and averaged more than four yards per carry. Second, by focusing so much on the run, Jacksonville left Seattle's receivers and tight ends to run free in the secondary. Rice and Tate took particular advantage.
"We feel like when we get one-on-one coverage with those guys," backup quarterback Tarvaris Jackson said, "they should make the play. And that's what we got going today. That's why I felt our offense took off a little bit more."
And that meant big days for the explosive Tate -- he made one leaping catch over a defensive back down the sideline -- and the now-healthy Rice.

Moderate hand. Label reads, batch 2012-3. Best by 03-2013, but I'm not too worried. A: Dark reddish-brown with 1 finger khaki head. Ok retention. Light lacing. Pretty nice. S: A bit light overall, but malty fruit, raisin, dried cherry, slight spice. Quality is nice, but subdued. Maybe the age? T: Nice tartness up front with cherry tang and mild spice notes. Some cracked pepper. This yields, somewhat late, to a smooth, kinda oaky, roasted malt with a semi-dry finish. Nice chocolate in the finish and aftertaste. Some lingering tartness which is very nice. Admittedly fairly boozy for 8.5% ABV, but I don't mind. Seems appropriate. M: Moderate carbonation with moderate body. Neither here nor there, but pretty smooth, I'd say. O: So, I was a bit skeptical out of the gates, but this one definitely grew on me. Thinking back, it was the same with the Samuel Smith Stingo. I takes a few big pulls to really get into these, but in the end I thoroughly enjoy the mildly sour/malty fusion. I wish more breweries put these out. Prost!

Appearance: rich, dark amber-brown hue with ruby highlights. Body appears to be relatively free of haze and the head is a thick finger of pillowy tan foam with a nice retention. Quite lovely. Smell: raisins, prunes, pears, raw tobacco, dust and alcohol. I'm completely sold! Taste: kind of tart and astringent at first; the deeper, darker flavors appear on the palate over time and in the aftertaste. Dank and appealing, though not quite so much as the aroma. Mouthfeel: medium body with a decent carbonation and creaminess. Not as nice as I would have liked, but good nonetheless. Overall: a tasty beer, although I do wish the flavor were a little bit more like the aroma. That wonderful aroma!

How to make the most of an opportunity
From growing cabbages to cooking them, one disadvantaged young women learns a trade
- Published: 19/01/2013 at 12:00 AM
- Newspaper section: News
The life stories of underprivileged young people often went unnoticed until online video clips came along to give new meaning to placing their plight in the spotlight and show how youngsters can blossom with institutional aid.
Daojai Saetor, 20, daughter of a cabbage farming family from Phetchabun, is trained to whisk eggs in the main kitchen of the JW Marriott Hotel in Bangkok. Photos by JINGJAI M.
Two young girls from rural districts in Phetchabun and Nong Khai provinces may have heard about YouTube and what it could do to change a person's life.
But it never crossed their minds that they would one day be featured on it.
A Chance for Change is a five-part reality series currently available on YouTube. It captures the experiences of two young women who entered a Unicef-inspired programme aimed at providing underprivileged young people with opportunities to improve their lives through hospitality training.
One is Daojai Saetor, 20, a poor Mon girl from Tab Berk village in Phetchabun who wants to continue her education. The other is Urairat Srisara, 18, of the northeastern province of Nong Khai.
The young women are among many underprivileged young people selected for the Youth Career Development Programme (YCDP) initiated by Unicef.
Cameras follow them on their quest for a better future. The series shows the many challenges and struggles they faced from the time they were accepted into the programme, put in an apprentice training course at leading hotels in Bangkok, right up to the point of their completion of the programme.
Looking the part: Ms Daojai in a hotel trainee uniform.
The series contains five episodes titled New Life, Hotel Training, Home Visit, Life in Bangkok and Graduation.
At a university dormitory in Bangkok, 21 young people from disadvantaged communities line up to pull the name of a top hotel out of a bag. Behind them, teams of hotel staff in uniforms wait to meet their new apprentices.
For Ms Daojai, a cabbage farmer from a hill tribe village in Phetchabun, it's an exciting moment. She reaches in and pulls out a piece of paper saying JW Marriot - and her new life begins.
Although quiet and shy, Ms Daojai is talkative once she gets going. She dresses simply and has a simple haircut, unlike the more fashion-conscious girls from urban areas. She arrived in Bangkok for the training in the third week of April last year.
"This is only my second time to Bangkok," she said.
"I arrived by bus with my friend. I'm very excited to be here. I wanted to go to university but my parents couldn't afford to send me. I'll need to pay my own way. Working in a hotel will help me do that."
Andrew Morris, the Unicef Thailand deputy representative, said this is an excellent example of how private companies and an organisation like Unicef can work together to change the lives of children and young people.
"Not only has it changed the lives of the young people who went through YCDP, but also the lives of their brothers, sisters and families because of the money they have sent back home for their education," he said.
"I was in a hotel recently making a booking for a friend of mine. When they realised I was from Unicef, they said 'we have some of your YCDP graduates in our senior staff at the hotel'. So we know that they've done very well."
At the JW Marriot Hotel in central Bangkok, Ms Daojai was hard at work at the hotel kitchen.
Wearing a starched white kitchen uniform and preparing food for dinner, she worked alongside an experienced chef. She chopped vegetables, mixed sauces and put trays of food in an industrial sized microwave. Afterwards, she cleaned the surfaces and kitchen utensils.
"Daojai is a quiet girl but she's motivated and works hard," said Tanai Jitmanowan, main kitchen chef at the JW Marriott Hotel. "I've seen her progress over the last month. She's more fluid in preparing the food.
"If she wanted to, she could be a chef herself in five years' time."

Rojana Pongpairoj, Front Office Manager of the JW Marriott Hotel, agrees that Ms Daojai is a promising student.
"We've had lots of weddings at the hotel lately so there have been many opportunities for Daojai to learn how to arrange flowers," Ms Rojana said.
After work, Ms Daojai returns to the small dormitory she shares with two other girls from her village.
The girls don't have many possessions - a few clothes and a book of short stories. But the rooms are bright and clean, and a cool breeze blows in from the lush, green gardens outside.
"The first week, I thought I'd made the wrong decision coming here," Ms Daojai said, looking back on her first month in the programme.
"The trainers made me work very hard. Once I had to unblock a toilet by putting my hand down it. But after that I thought 'I have to fight for this' and it's got better since."
Ms Daojai works a six-day week at the hotel.
In their free time, she and her friends go shopping, have meals and enjoy long chats together.
"My daily allowance is 120 baht but I try to spend just 50 to 100 baht," she said.
When she gets lonely, she calls her mother on her mobile phone. "I don't want to cry so I keep my problems to myself," she said.
"My mother tells me to take care of myself and always take an umbrella when I go out. She said if I can't cope I can come home. But I want to stay and complete the course."
Half way through the course, Ms Daojai went home for a weekend to visit her family in Tab Berk. The village sits upon a ridge at the top of a mountain range.
The main industry in the area is cabbage farming. Ms Daojai's wooden house is set upon a bed of packed earth. There is one large room with a bed in the corner and a kitchen out the back. The family's few belongings hang from nails that have been pounded into the walls.
The only obvious sign of modernity is a large TV attached to a satellite dish outside.
Life is hard in the mountains, but Ms Daojai enjoys being with her family.
When she is at home, she spends most of the day attending to household chores and working in the fields.
"I miss my mum most of all. Here, I see her face every morning when I wake up," she said.
The next morning, Ms Daojai said goodbye to her parents and grandparents. On the way back, she stopped at the local temple to make an offering.
"I asked the spirits to keep me safe in Bangkok and help me complete my studies," she said.
