Small jet crash at Santa Monica Airport called "unsurvivable"
LOS ANGELES (AP) — Rescuers and investigators were working amid the smoldering wreckage of a private jet and the hangar it hit after landing at a Southern California airport, but they did not expect to find any survivors from the flight from Idaho with an unknown number aboard, officials said.
"This was an unsurvivable crash," Santa Monica Fire Department Capt. John Nevandro said at a media briefing hours later at Santa Monica Municipal Airport.
Because the hangar collapsed in flames around it and a crane would be required before the plane could be reached, investigators had been unable to determine how many people were aboard the twin-engine Cessna Citation designed to hold eight passengers and two crew members, officials said.
It had taken off from Hailey, Idaho and landed in Santa Monica when it went off the right side of the runway at about 6:20 p.m. and struck the hangar, Federal Aviation Administration spokesman Ian Gregor said.
The blaze did minor damage to two other buildings and destroyed the hangar.
"It was a total loss," Fire Department spokeswoman Bridgett Lewis said.
News helicopter footage showed all but the tail of the plane trapped under a collapsed section of the small building.
Investigators could not immediately say whether anyone was inside the hangar.
A plume of smoke rising above the airport could be seen in the twilight sky over the populous neighborhoods surrounding the airport in the hours after the crash.
After hearing a loud boom, several neighbors ran toward the airport and saw the fire.
"It was very, very terrifying, it was sad to see just so much smoke, and the building collapse and the loud boom, you just put it all together and it's scary," witness Alyssa Lang told KABC-TV.
Witness Charles Thomson told the TV station the plane appeared to make a "perfectly normal landing" before veering off course.
The jet, a Cessna 525A manufactured in 2003, is registered to a Malibu, Calif. address and its corporate owner, Creative Real Estate Exchange, is based in Birmingham, Ala., and Atlanta, according to FAA public records.
Phone messages left after hours at the real estate company's two offices were not immediately returned.
The National Transportation Safety Board would take over the investigation as is routine in such crashes.
Santa Monica Airport, located in the coastal tourist destination known for its trendy bars, restaurants and wooden-pier carnival, is home to many private jets, many of them used by wealthy Southern Californians from the entertainment industry.
The airport in Hailey serves Idaho's Sun Valley resort area, which is a frequent destination for many celebrities, and the rich and powerful alike.
5 dead after small jet crashes in eastern GA
Thomson-McDuffie County Sheriff Logan Marshall said the jet crashed after 8 p.m. Wednesday. He said the two survivors were taken to area hospitals but did not have information on their conditions. He said the identities of those killed were being withheld pending notification of family members.
The Hawker Beechcraft 390/Premier I en route from Nashville, Tenn., crashed around 8:30 p.m. at the Thomson-McDuffie County Airport, about 30 miles west of Augusta, Federal Aviation Administration spokeswoman Kathleen Bergen said in an email.
Seven people were aboard, she told The Associated Press in the email. She added that she had no immediate details about a possible cause.
The Augusta Chronicle (http://bit.ly/WbvMGa) cited Assistant County Fire Chief Stephen Sewell as saying there were at least two survivors identified as a pilot and a passenger. But he provided no additional information about those aboard in that account.
The newspaper said a brush fire flared near the crash scene, quoting witnesses who reported local power outages that prompted a utility to send workers to the site. A photograph posted on the newspaper's online site showed ambulances with lights flashing.
The plane was on a flight from John Tune Airport in Nashville, Tenn., to the Thomson-McDuffie airport, Bergen said in her email, adding the aircraft is registered to a company based in Wilmington, Del.

City approves $16 million 2008-2009 budget
The deficit included the city's general fund taking on the cost of $53,200 that would normally come from the police and fire departments' mitigation funds, $32,000 to cover the increase in dispatch costs for both departments and the increased cost of booking fees the police department paid to Lassen County. Other cost increases to the deficit included $2,833 for necessary repairs and maintenance for City Hall, and $5,000 for a part-time building inspector.
City Finance Director Robert Porfiri explained how these were costs he and his staff deemed necessary for the city to pay, in order to maintain basic needs. He then provided a list of areas where the city could make cuts and reorganizations in order to help offset some of the deficit costs, and a number of reorganizations and cuts were made.
Porfiri's initial report also listed some of the organizations that would be restructured, including at least one layoff.
Porfiri said the housing grants and economic development administration would be restructured to be shared by the administrator's office and the finance department. He also said the vacant associate planner position would not be filled.
Porfiri presented a report on the budget for the coming fiscal year. The appropriation limit, which limits city spending, the budget itself, and a resolution about budget processes and policies all passed. All resolutions passed unanimously, except for the budget; Kurt Bonham gave the only no vote.
"Due to State of California budget cuts to cities and increased costs of materials and supplies, current general fund revenues are not sufficient to pay for current expenditures," Porfiri said in his report.
Porfiri said the switching of the fire and police vehicle replacement costs from the department's respective mitigation funds to the general fund was so the funds could be given a chance to grow and create reserves that can be used for future vehicle purchases. The $32,000 allocated for increased dispatch fees was something Porfiri said was out of the city's control.
"We have a contract for those services, and those services are going up," Porfiri said. "So the city is getting charged more basically, for the same services."
Other city funds
Porfiri told the council all other city enterprise funds did not change since presented at the budget workshops. Of those enterprise funds, the city's water enterprise fund had proposed increased fees to help pay for new water meters and the replacement of waterlines. Based on the finance department's projections, the water fund stands to lose more than $220,000 this year. Porfiri said the natural gas Fund was in a particularly dangerous situation, as the outstanding debt created by the fund will need to be refinanced in the next year or two. The gas fund stands to lose $457,487 for the upcoming fiscal year alone, as a difference between the fund's expenses versus its income.
Porfiri said the airport, golf course and day care funds will all be in deficit spending in 2008-2009 as well, although he said the airport and golf course funds have assets to offset the deficit, while the day care does not.
City Councilmember Rod DeBoer said he wanted to see more progress involving the airport specifically, because of the numerous assets it has brought to the community. He asked Public Works Director Craig Platt how it would be possible to make the airport fund itself. Platt replied that the airport must be allowed to continue to be improved via the efforts of the airport's and city's staff.
Councilmember Doug Sayers asked Porfiri if he thought this was a good budget for this year, to which Porfiri said no, then explained his position.
"Not to influence any decisions, but what is wrong with it is the way we're fixing the deficit," Porfiri said. "It's basically been what's been done for the last four or five years. At one point, we have to address the issue of revenues. We are going to need more revenues to keep the services."
Recently re-elected District 2 Supervisor Jim Chapman addressed the council during the public hearing held before the budget was approved. He commended the council on their ability to get a budget out early, but warned them to pass the budget with a plan to make revisions as the fiscal year progresses. He said because budget issues are such a mess at the state level, it would most likely be a while before the city would receive any financial help from officials in Sacramento. He told the council to not only be flexible with its budget, but to develop as many contingency plans as it could as a precaution to the lack of funding.

text: Let's consider again the following set of digits Set= {1,2,3} Question: How many numbers of three digits can we obtain from this set?. The answer is: 123, 132, 213, 231, 312, and 321. In total, 6 numbers. The order of these numbers is NOT important. The arragement 132 and 312 , for example, are not the same. The question would be presented as: How many arrangements of three digits can we make from the three elements of the set Set? There are 6 manners to arrange three digits among three digits. We process as we did for the arragement. We arrange n objects among n objects. Here the arrangement is called permutation: Since we know the number of counts for arragements, we induce the one for permutations, simply by setting r = n. It follows: The number of permutations of n objects is P(n) = A(n,n) = n!

The Future Sound: Sucka Set.
From The Whole Shabang (East/West, 1992)
Original Flavor: Brainstorm.
From This Is How It Is (Atlantic, 1992)
Neither of these were extraordinary albums or artists but they represented a fascinating snapshot of hip-hop right at the fading edge of the New School. Positive, conscious, jazzy, both of these Dame Dash-managed groups came on the heels of the Native Tongues, Leaders of the New School, Brand Nubian, etc. but were two years too late to truly capitalize. That said, these two songs represent the better side of both artists. "Sucka Set" sounds like a KMD b-side while "Brainstorm" has more of a Kwame-throwback feel (but not in a bad way).

With temperatures inching up to 100 degrees, sometimes the only reprieve is a dip in the pool. But it only took a split second for a diving accident to paralyze a Houston oil executive.
It was a warm April afternoon when Dominique Malard decided to cool off by jumping in his backyard pool.
"I intended to do a flip in the air and I obviously miscalculated," said Malard. "So I hit my head and I was paralyzed on impact immediately. I was fully conscious, laying down at the bottom of the pool. I remember I was trying to scream, but I was screaming in my head."
Even though Malard couldn't be heard, his 9-year-old daughter Laetitia could see her father struggling.
"I saw that it was bad and I lifted him up," said Laetitia.
Laetitia brought him to the surface of the pool. EMS workers brought him to Ben Taub Hospital's neurological intensive care unit where his wife remained by his side.
"He said, 'Maria, Maria, am I moving my fingers?'" said his wife, "and I saw him and he was totally paralyzed."
Neurosurgeons discovered Malard had a congenital defect of his spine. It was 50 percent narrower than normal. When he hit his head, it was at just the right angle to cause significant injury to the spinal cord, paralyzing him.
"A lot of people do have it," said Dr. Shankar Gopinath, Chief of Neurosurgery at Ben Taub. "No one has any symptoms unless they have a trauma and that's when they realize they have that injury."
But there is hope for people with this type of traumatic injury. Three weeks after the accident, surgeons went in to make repairs.
"We cut the bone along the side, then opened it like a door. Then we keep the door like that and we put in a plate and screws so the canal is kept open," said Gopinath.
Four days after the operation, Malard began intense rehab at the Institute for Rehabilitation and Research (TIRR). Just 24 days later, he walked out the doors nearly 100 percent back to normal.
"The worst case scenario is the injury staying the same, like Christopher Reeves," said Dr. George Al-Shamy, Chief Resident Ben Taub. "People have no motion of their arms and legs, cannot feel, cannot breathe, have to have a trachea breathing tube to help them and the best case scenario is Dominique Malard. He is moving around, working, traveling with his family, living a normal life."
"I feel we are very lucky. We are very, very lucky," said Maria.
Doctors say that Malard's miraculous recovery is due to everything happening in precise order: His daughter rescuing him, he was quickly taken to a level-one trauma center for fast diagnosis then the intangible, and his sheer determination.
"This is not only me," said Dominique. "Sure, I'm the one who jumped in the pool, I'm the one who hurt myself, I'm the one who is paralyzed, but my whole family was paralyzed."
Doctors say diving accidents are not uncommon, especially this time of year.
"People have to be careful where they're diving. They have to be aware of their surrounding and minimize it especially in the lakes, where they don't know the depth is," said Dr. Al-Shamy.
But Malard said he will never tempt fate again, "Nobody dives in that pool. Nobody dives in that pool now."

Actually nothing baby like - just getting excited as it is my 30th Birthday on Monday!
Comment"I think it's different from child to child. My daughter point blank refused to sit on the toilet or the small kiddie toilet seat and would only sit on the potty. She saw my neighbors toddler (3 months older than her) on the 'big girl toilet' and has now decided that she can do that too (thank goodness). I bought about 20 pairs of knickers and use nappies at night time. I don't want to use pull ups as they are expensive and to me, they still represent wearing a nappy. She loves her little girl knickers and we have only had a handful of 'accidents' since trying over the past 3 to 4 weeks."
"I give my daughter a bit of window down time and then usually bath her at 6.30/7 pm. It's quite late but I only get home from work at about 6/6.30 pm. We are at the potty training stage (she is 27 months old) and so I always ask her a number of times if she needs the potty. She has only made a number 2 just after she has woken up or near as to that time."

Hot dayum... Crystal Chappel...aka..Carly Alamain is Returning later this year...FINALLY....Will be awesome to see her back!!!!
I may even start watching again if they keep bringing back old favorites. Now if Aunt vivienne comes back I am so watching again, I loved her
I loved Carly, too, but I heard they're bringing her back to come between Bo and Hope. I don't like that at all. No one should ever come between Bo and Hope again.
Now that Carly and Vivienne are being joined by Lawrence, I'm hopeful that Carly isn't going to be used to divide Bo and Hope. Carly and Lawrence were a great couple (maybe their off-screen pairing had a lot to do with their on-screen chemistry) and I hope they leave it that way.
It's in the new TV Guide. I'm happy she coming back - I may even tune in for it. She's supposed to be back Oct. 2 and she "needs help from Bo". If you want spoilers, keep reading. Carly has committed a murder and she's on the run. when we first see her, she's in Europe and trying to make her way back to Salem. Because of what she's done, there are a couple other people in danger too
Then she's going to need a good lawyer. Why don't they stick her with Justin instead of having him "comfort" Hope? I love Justin, and I love Carly, but I don't want either of them to mess with Bo and Hope. I know the writers are already planning trouble in paradise, but we don't have to like it.
But Soaps wouldn't be Soaps if everbody stayed HAppily Ever After.
True, but at least a little short-term happiness would be nice.

UC: A lifeline for doctors in Haiti
Establishing communications was a primary goal for a group of American doctors who rushed to Haiti to aid victims of the catastrophic 7.0 magnitude earthquake of 2010. Wireline telephony and cellular communications had all been disrupted and the likelihood for a fast resolution was slim.
Turkish Petroleum Strikes Oil with Remote SIP Connectivity
Turkish Petroleum's remote workers can benefit from the centrally located Avaya IP-PBX and inherent SIP capabilities to make VoIP calls from anywhere, anytime, reducing telephony costs significantly.
GCM - Hosted VoIP Solution in a secure and cost-efficient way
The Ingate solution overcomes the NAT traversal hurdle and makes it possible to connect customers to our VoIP service, without the need of costly leased lines or support intensive VPN tunnels. Now we have a secure and cost-efficient environment that allows us to focus on our core business – to sell telephony services.
- Niklas Berg, Technical Director at GCM
Kool Smiles -"The ROI on SIP Trunking"
Kool Smiles cut their communications costs by 40 percent, and in less than a year the entire installation — including a new IP-PBX, phones, network upgrades and other network hardware -- has paid for itself. To date, the company has shifted more than 35,000 calls a day to toll-free Internet telephony, which is now live on 1,800 handsets.
SIP Trunking with Microsoft OCS
This solution really saved the day for us," said Paul Mercier, IT Administrator, NMSAS. "We needed to leverage SIP trunks to reduce costs, and they had to work with our existing Microsoft OCS investment. The BBTelsys-Ingate implementation was able to make it all happen for us, very easily, and delivered advanced features that help us serve our clients better.

Working with beautiful, perfect, clean shapes in illustrator is what I love, don't get me wrong, but sometimes its nice to give an illustration a little something more. Some depth or additional layers of visual reference, when done well, can take an illustration to the next level. When done poorly they can make an illustration look amateur. We'll learn how to make a high-quality vector texture from scratch in this tutorial. Let's get started!
I have noticed that a lot of designers will not take the time to create a new texture, they will either use something they found or will quickly try get a texture from a photo. When I see this it drives me crazy because it's a super simple process to get a nice texture. Take the time to do it right. In this tutorial, I will show the process I use to get a nice vector texture, its not complicated at all, but it might help to remind some folks that it's okay to step away from the computer for a second.
One thing I should mention is that if you are looking to get a screen-print or letterpress texture look/feel, obviously the best way to achieve that is to scan in a piece of that source and apply it to what you are working on. I like to make different textures and apply them in a wide variety of ways. Maybe in a future tutorial I can show you how I use them. For now I will go through the simple process of creating a vector textures, as well as supply you with some extra textures, you can download them for free here!!!
Final Image Preview
Below is the final vector texture we'll be working towards. Want access to the full Vector Source files and downloadable copies of every tutorial, including this one? Join Vector Plus for just 9$ a month.
Step 1 – Rip Yourself Away
Since most designer/illustrator types spend countless hours starring at the computer screen, this first step will be the hardest, and most important. Rip yourself away from email, Photoshop and yes even Illustrator and step away from the computer!
Step 2 – Gather Materials Away
Grab anything that is around you. A few of the materials that I like to use are paint, a paint roller, copy machine, razor blade, a nail, my thumb, sand paper, dirt, a booger (yuck), food, thread, sticky notes, a cactus, use scissors… I could go on forever.
Step 3 – Play
Put the paint to the paper, its fun right? Anything goes; scribble on the paper with tons of different markers, use sand paper, spit on it, dump water on it, cut it up, mash it up in the dirt, let your bulldog slobber and chew on it… try anything. For this tut I'm going crazy with the paint roller.
Tip: A nice way to get a 'distressed' texture is to simply print out a completely black sheet of paper and scratch, rub, tear and crumple it.
Step 4 – Scan
OK play time is over, back to the computer (boo!). I really like the way the paint roll texture looks, so I am going to use this for the rest of the tutorial. I like to scan at a pretty high resolution (400-600dpi) because it allows for more detail and if you ever want to use the raster version instead of the vector, then you have some room to scale it up. Don't forget to let things dry before you scan (haha!).
Step 5 – Photoshop
Open the scan in Photoshop. First, using the Crop Tool, crop the image to a manageable size. Notice the wrinkles in the paper, I like to clean those up a bit by going to Image > Adjustments > Levels, and I applied the settings shown below (but adjust to what looks best for your image). Now go to Image > Adjustments > Threshold and again apply the settings shown below, or what looks best for your image. Now you have an image that is strictly black and white, perfect for Live Trace in Adobe Illustrator. Save it as either a PSD or TIFF.
Step 6 – Illustrator Time
Open the black and white PSD in Illustrator. Now its time to Live Trace this bad boy. Go to Object > Live Trace > Tracing Options. An alert may pop up, because this image is high resolution, hit OK. Next, using the Adjustments and Trace Settings you can refine the live trace. After using Live trace a million times, I have a go to setting called "Mazin'" that works perfectly, which is shown below. Hit OK and let Live Trace do its magic. When it's done hit Expand.
Step 7 – Clean
The last thing I like to do is to separate out the white from the file so that the texture is ready to use. Go to Select > All and then Object > Ungroup (if you are in CS3 you can just double-click into the grouping). Then using the Selection Tool (black arrow) click on the corner of the white, then while its selected go to Select > Same > Fill Color. Now we can hit delete to get rid of all the white.
Boom! You have a delicious vector texture. That's it folks, short and sweet! For more texture goodness check out JesseHora.com. The final vector texture is below.

your faith in government is astounding considering their track record. I got this bridge I need to sell. you interested?
The government through bureaucrats bought the land, created the city of Oak Ridge, built the buildings, did the science, and built the weapon in about 3 years. No a bad record. Oh and by the way they drafted and trained the troops, outfitted them and won the durn war all at the same time. Then came home, educated the mass of veterns, created the strongest economy and took over world leadership. Oh, it also ended segregation in the military, and moved toward equal liberty for minorities and women. Yeah, pretty good record.

Love the repubs...especially the broke ones who still vote republican because they are too blinded by bigotry to realize they're the ones who want you broke! Was this really a necessary move? No. Why ask teachers to cut pay? Wouldn't the 5 MILLION dollar project to give Ms. Cynthia Anderson a FREE HOUSE on YSU's campus be enough to cover rising health-care costs? I'm thinking someone that makes 340k a year for basically doing nothing, doesnt need a 5 million dollar house, free bills, gas, and a car. Funny how when someones poor nobody wants to give them anything, but when your rich everythings "on the house".

In the 2000 film Traffic, Robert Wakefield is a superior court judge newly appointed to head the Office of National Drug Control Policy (ONDCP). In one scene, Wakefield compliments the outgoing drug czar on his successes, only to receive a quizzical look and a resigned reply: "I'm not sure I made the slightest difference."
Such is the sentiment of much of society concerning the war on drugs and drug trafficking in the United States. Many argue that the war on drugs costs America far too much in tax dollars, law enforcement effort, and people's lives, and that, despite an overwhelming effort, little progress has been made. The drug control budget in the United States has increased from $9.7 billion in 1990 to $17.7 billion in 2000. The Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) increased its number of agents from 3,191 in 1990 to 4,561 in 2000. In spite of these increases, the number of drug users increased from 5.8 percent of the population in 1992 to 6.7 percent in 1998. In 1999 an estimated 14.8 million Americans were current users of illegal drugs, and there were approximately 208,000 users of heroin, more than triple the 1993 figure of 68,000. Drug use in America has steadily risen in the last ten years despite increases in law enforcement efforts, budgets, and staffing.
In 1968 Richard Nixon coined the phrase "war on drugs" to describe America's efforts to battle the production, distribution, and use of illegal drugs. In 1972 Nixon combined four government agencies dedicated to combating drugs to create the DEA. In the 1980s, Ronald Reagan revived the war on drugs and increased the efforts of the DEA to reduce the supply of drugs entering the United States. Reagan initiated a series of laws allowing federal officials to access military intelligence, training, and equipment to track and intercept drug traffickers. Around the same time, federal and local governments passed laws allowing property and assets derived from drug profits to be confiscated and retained by officials. Under the Reagan administration, drug treatment and education programs were initiated, including Nancy Reagan's "Just Say No" campaign in which children were encouraged by media messages and slogans to resist offers of drugs.
The increase in law enforcement efforts was intended to reduce drug trafficking by enacting more severe legal sanctions for convicted drug dealers, but the enormity of profits to be made from smuggling and selling drugs overrides the threat of punishment. The international drug trade is estimated to generate $300 billion to $400 billion annually. Such a large profit not only provides a strong incentive to sell drugs, but also allows criminals greater access to technological advantages. Because the traffickers have a higher budget than drug enforcement officers do, they are able to develop more sophisticated means of producing, transporting, and hiding their drugs. According to journalists John Ward Anderson and William Branigin, "In recent years, drug mafias have bought commercial jetliners and built a fleet of two-man submarines to move drugs to the United States. They have secreted loads in propane tanks and containers of hazardous materials, in small cans of tuna fish and five-gallon drums of jalapeño peppers. One trafficking group fashioned a special mold that was used to successfully ship cocaine from Mexico through the United States and into Canada completely sealed inside the walls of porcelain toilets." The existing budget to fight the supply of drugs cannot compete with the limitless resources available to drug traffickers.
Critics of the drug war argue that the amount of money spent on unsuccessfully reducing the supply of drugs would be better used to fight the enormous demand for drugs in the United States. To accomplish this, many favor drug prevention education programs that strive to deter children from experimenting with drugs. They speak favorably of the "Just Say No" campaign of the Reagan administration, which launched the "This is your brain on drugs" commercials as well as posters with the slogan "Drugs Kill." They also support the current Drug Abuse Resistance Education (DARE) program, in which trained, uniformed police officers speak to classrooms about the negative consequences of drug use and teach children the skills to resist peer pressure and intimidation. Supporters of these programs contend that children are less likely to succumb to the dangers of drug use—and less likely to become drug-abusing adults—if they are informed about the risks.
In addition to drug education, proponents of the demand-reduction approach advocate increased funding for drug treatment programs. Treatment programs include various drug rehabilitation clinics and job support and training for rehabilitated drug addicts. Another form of treatment is the distribution of methadone to heroin addicts. Methadone is a synthetic opiate that blocks the craving for heroin and reduces the painful and debilitating withdrawal symptoms. According to Michael Massing, author of The Fix, a book about America's drug problem,
Relying solely on drug-fighting efforts abroad, the government would have to spend $783 million more a year to reduce cocaine consumption by 1 percent; relying on interdiction, it would have to spend $366 million more, and on domestic law enforcement, $246 million. Relying solely on treatment, however, the government would have to spend only $34 million more to achieve that 1 percent reduction. In other words [according to a 1994 RAND study], treatment was seven times more cost-effective than local law enforcement, ten times more effective than interdiction, and twenty-three times more effective than attacking drugs at their source.
Massing and others maintain that drug treatment is not only more effective at reducing drug use than interdiction efforts, but also more cost effective for American taxpayers.
Others contend that attacking the supply of drugs is essential to reduce drug use and the social ills it produces. According to talk-show host and syndicated columnist Oliver North, "The prevalence of so many drugs, in such astounding quantities and purity, results in extraordinary violence, corruption, and downright lawlessness here in the United States." North and others argue that the effort poured into drug interdiction and law enforcement is necessary to maintain the no-tolerance drug policy in the United States. Law enforcement seized $82 million worth of drugs in 1999, more than three times the 1990 figure of $24 million. The DEA argues that this increase in drug seizures demonstrates the effectiveness of supply reduction in the war on drugs.
Despite many arguments against America's war on drugs, the prevailing sentiment strongly advocates a no-tolerance drug policy. Drug Trafficking: Current Controversies offers perspectives on the various effects drug trafficking has on society and the efforts law enforcement and the government are making to combat it. While drug trafficking is seen as a transnational threat, attempts to eradicate it have caused much controversy in the United States.

You know besides the money set -- -- asking him about our technology you have to also have the money in the infrastructure to be able to put together.
That type of a massive operation whether -- social media.
Or whether B you -- micro targeting through through you they use a social media but we've.
We've got the money didn't and to be able to do that this time around but more than that I think you know this governor.
It's about two things one you've got to have the right message and you have -- have the infrastructure so the Republican National Committee is focusing in.
-- both of those things especially infrastructure so that when it comes -- digital reach.
That we can compete but I think that our message this time around the message of liberty and freedom and the big issues that are facing America those are going to be the issues that are gonna drive the -- if you don't have the message mean these guys can talk all day long that they're gonna make.
Look -- miniature in comparison both here if you're on the wrong side of the message you can have all the infrastructure in the world.
But it's not gonna get -- the finish line so the key is to be able to do both and we've got the money.
The people in place in the infrastructure to be able to do it but on top of it -- the most important thing.
In politics in winning is being right on the message and that's where we're going to be and that's why we're gonna win.
You know I think it goes back to little story rice and you may have heard of -- Wisconsin growing up.
Company developed a wonderful dog food had great technology.
It was scientifically advanced and they marketed it as successfully and effectively but the company went out of business because the dogs would need to stuff.
And so it ultimately comes down to.
Will the American people eat this stuff that they're gonna be served up by -- the Obama machine.
Let's take a look at another comment that and her model made and we'll get you to respond to it as well.
It's a big -- that there are it's about 50000 square feet of office space at the time had more than 200 staffers.
In headquarters.
It's -- for comparison at the time Romney's campaign the biggest Republican campaign had about 98.
You go back said Bill Clinton in 96 or George H.
Bush forty.
George W.
Bush about ten or fewer at this point so they are really ramped up thoroughly.
And -- the scope of it is really impressive.
The you know rights when Republicans here this sort of thing and they see this huge staffing that the Obama organization has they look at the Republican candidates.
Any and even Romney who has the most advanced operation is nowhere near that level of staffing.
Explain to people how the RNC does provide a infrastructure of staffing.
As the Republican nominee is have eventually chosen.
You bet and you know the first thing I think of -- -- -- that is you know we've got a president that is just in love with campaigning I wish she was.
You know 25% as -- -- being president leading this country as he -- and -- in campaigning but.
Tell you that the Republican National Committee is very unique under the law where what were the only organization in America.
That can take the money that we raise and legally combine it can coordinate it.
With the presidential nominee and we're prepared to do that some -- you might be surprised that we actually have more cash and in the bank than the Democratic National Committee.
As for as much of fund raising as the president's doing RNC is actually doing better.
So we're proud of that.
But just remember -- and I caution and people get too caught up in this because Hillary Clinton Barack Obama.
You remember in no way they nearly -- each other's eyes out fighting through the end of the June before a national convention splitting their party nearly in half.
And guess what all of that drama and that tough primary actually help their side and helped Barack Obama.
Anyone pretty easily so the idea that Barack Obama has a 50000 square foot building and a bunch of -- -- and and our candidates are still in a primary race.
The history shows that actually it's an advantage to our party to have this debate I'll -- -- Governor when you were running and you stayed in the race to provided excitement on our side when you get out of the race guess what.
We put everyone asleep and everyone was talking about Hillary Clinton Barack Obama.
For the next four months so there's a value.
To having this serious debate in this country.
Not about the Republican Party -- the Democratic Party.
But by the very idea of America and freedom and what we want in life and whether we want to cradle to -- society.
Or whether we -- in America.
That is based on the concept of individual freedom and liberty and that is a debate worth having well I want to thank you for making that comment because are a lot of people asking me to get out earlier.
Some of the quote she writes that I should have stayed -- even longer.
Four years -- Is it okay.
Rallies that -- ahead governor and you know what people don't realize is that these rallies even though we were neutral in the race -- was the chairman of the state party.
Everyone that came in of those rallies -- so we got -- email addresses we figured out whether -- -- to help us down the road it helped us recruit people so that in the fall we had different faces and headquarters southern.
All that stuff helps the message in the movement.
And that's something that people can get lost they can get lost if if you don't really follow.
This stuff in the weeds that is a great point to make an -- Wright's previous thank you very much for being -- -- always a pleasure.
-- -- coming up we're gonna.

Qatar plans to boost petrochemical output
Qatar intends to invest some US$10 billion in its petrochemical sector during the next five years, the Qatari newspaper The Peninsula reported Tuesday.

Over 200 participants from 35 countries were taking part in the two-day conference organized by Turret Group Ltd in cooperation with Qapco.
The current capacity of major petrochemical producers in the Middle East amounts to over 52 million tons, of which over 60 per cent are exported.

Two-thirds of consumers say they notice mobile ads, and one-third of mobile ad views result in a click
Mobile devices give shoppers the power to make purchase decisions on the go, and this week's infographic shows marketers just how consumers are wielding that power, especially in the top three mobile search categories: autos, travel and dining out.
Based on the data presented in the infographic, you might say that mobile shoppers are:
- Locally focused – 50% of all mobile searches are local (versus 20% of desktop searches), and most search actions occur within a week
- Looking for grub – 30%-to-50% of all restaurant searches are mobile
- In want of wheels – 51% of mobile auto searches resulted in a purchase
- Need to crash – More than 60% of mobile hotel bookings were for the same day
The most surprising stats? That with all this action in mobile search, only 6% of the auto industry and 8% of the travel industry have mobile-friendly sites. Jump on over to see the whole infographic.

A Laredo man is hospitalized after police say his 3-year-old grandson shot him in the base of the back.
Laredo fire Capt. Eloy Vega tells the Laredo Morning Times that the 47-year-old man was in stable condition at Laredo Medical Center after the 2:40 p.m. Tuesday shooting at the man's home. Laredo police spokesman Joe Baeza says described the injury as a non-life-threatening flesh wound.
Baeza says the child apparently found a small-caliber handgun under a pillow or a mattress. He said suspicion turned toward the child after he complained of wrist pain and having scorch marks on his hands.
Baeza said Wednesday that the case is being referred to the Webb County District Attorney's Office. He said Child Protective Services also is investigating.

Rayne Frog Festival
By: Hanna
Hi! My name is Hop and I'm a frog that lives in Rayne, Louisiana. Rayne is a small town in Acadia Parish which is a hop, skip, and a jump away from New Orleans. Any frog is welcome to this lily pad. However, we must be careful because in Rayne our leaping legs might just end up on a dinner plate. This town loves frogs like myself so much that they have a festival to celebrate us. This festival is held every Labor Day weekend.
Have you ever been to the Frog Festival in Rayne? Some frogs may like it and then again some may not. Well one thing is for sure, people sure do. When you go to this very unique festival you are in for a leaping good time. At the start of the festival, there is a World Champion Frog Jumping Contest, or around Rayne you might hear "fais do-do." There is also an outstanding fireworks display. At the festival there are carnival rides that children enjoy. There is a Lion's Club Frog Derby. This is a strange contest because little girls dress up frogs and then sees which frog jumps the farthest. They also have frog eating contests. Can you believe that? There is a queen's contest where they crown a Miss Rayne. There is a Pet-R-Pet, which is a hands-on petting zoo. There is also good food and great music.
Let me tell you how my kinfolks and I got so "hoppening" in this town. It all started in the 1880s when Donat Pucheu, a gourmet chef decided to sell bullfrogs to restaurants in New Orleans. Then two men called the Weill Brothers,from France, created a frog exportation business that sold frogs from Rayne to restaurants. This made Rayne a popular place. Rayne's population increased when the International Rice Festival asked Rayne to host the first frog derby. After that it all became history. Thank goodness, Rayne doesn't export anymore but it's froggy identity is bigger than ever.
With 8,700 inhabitants Rayne is the second largest city in Acadia Parish. Rayne is known as the "Frog Capital of the World." Not only does Rayne have a festival for frogs but many of the building have paintings of frogs on them.

My 6yr old and I love the walk around this thermal park. An easy water taxi takes you across the river. 1-1.5 hr easy walk around the site and through the bush. Great walkway and viewing at each lookout.

Having done the Rotorua tourism trail a few years ago, this was a breath of fresh air! A little boat ride across the lake, which is a lovely setting and then a thermal park in a pretty much completely natural setting. Wallboards with no rails to pen you in make it a lovely experience. Ok, no pools to jump in... More
The hidden valley was about a half an hour drive from Taupo. We had high hopes after reading the reviews. The entrance fee is NZD35pp (which includes the 1min boat ride across the river). This is very expensive considering it's just a short walking path amongst the geysers and mud pools. There's no swimming at all. The geothermal pools, bubbling... More
This thermal park is somewhat remote and as a result less visited than other spots. That is part of what makes it such a nice place to visit. The trails are in excellent condition and the boat trip across the lake was well done. They have a nice cafe where you can get lunch or drinks and gaze out at... More
this is one of the two best geothermal areas in NZ. Arguably its the most varied and colourful, and at times its geysers are quite active. I have visited it many times and always suggest our visitors go there
Not knowing what we were in for we set off for a day's adventure. Taken by boat to the park, it was a self guided tour so you can take as much time as you want and revisit spots as you go. Bubbling mud, steaming water, and a geyser churning to mention a few. I know there were others there,... More
The location is extraordinary. The terraces and boiling pools with their colourful setting are a pleasure to view. Quiet location with little commercialization attached. Some of the geysers were dormant and some of the mudpools seemed dry but these are the vagaries of nature. This is a true natural thermal park.
35 years ago I visited this place and the memory stayed with me so I was very pleasantly surprised that it lived up to and surpassed those memories. A one minute ferry ride across and you are able to take a self guided walk around the thermal marvels. What we enjoyed most of all that at times we were the... More
This is my favourite attraction that I visited. Travelling over on the boat really sets the scene. What this attraction has is a feel to it, I felt like I would see a dinosaur poke his head out of the vegetation. It does not have the commercialisation attached to it.
We recently visited Orakei Korako Cave and Thermal Park and were pleasantly surprised to find such a natural hidden gem. Spent a couple of hours wandering through the park and enjoyed the variety of thermal attractions, silica terraces,bubbling mud pools and boiling pools, geysers and fascinating colors, set in beautiful natural native bush. The walkways respected the landscape and yet... More

............." Polo is karma. I believe. Its also about a way of life. People notice the frills but there is much more. It's dedication. It is love. It's care and it's passion. It is about rewarding and it's teaching. Learning all along forever. And it's a great sorter: The shallow ones become players. Lucky ones become human. Horses teach a lot. Actually the best lessons of life if you think, are learnt in quiet and without spoken words. Experiences."
Nothing speaks a deeper truth to me about the spirit of what we have to learn from nature's noblest steed.
It made me recall my childhood : I think I spoke horse as much as they spoke to me as early as the the age of three. My father's days of horsemanship began in the Swiss army. He brought his love of the equestrian arts, as well as his razor sharp, hair-breadth precision engineering alacrity with him to Africa. He found himself colliding with a differently spirited universe than his own for most of his life as he lived it; yet the disparities, the complexities and the ubiquitous elasticity of the African mind and heart - which he understood as little as he did the African soul, melted, when the two worlds met in equestrian realm. It was the one context within Africa in which he could truly find himself again. And so it was that to all intents and purposes that I effectively grew up in the stables.
His stallion was a dapple grey wonder of a horse to my miniscule universe. I was sole adventurer of that mysterious space between his fore and hind legs, curtained by the lengths of an unfathomable tail and ceilinged by the softest belly of a sky. I was herded too by his sturdy jawline.
My father used to tell me how I was the only one ever allowed near the stallion's hind legs. It never failed to chuff my tiny pride. I knew even then I enjoyed an unusual privilege of freedom within this personal animal space. I knew the horse loved it as much as I did.
My father though never though gave in to my pleas to be placed in the saddle on my own. I was allowed the topside view only occasionally, when he'd saddle me with him for a few paddock rounds. It was by far never ever enough. He and my mother rode for years. She had a beautiful black mare yet I was never allowed near her. And I didn't notice how that was the beginning of a door being shut on me.
Polo was my father's domain and I never understood why I was never allowed to accompany him to matches, yet, I was allowed to sit in the back rungs of spectator stands for hours on end, bored to death,through endless Swiss Rifle Club weekends. The fact that he was a superb marksman and that he collected medals like smarties added salt into my childhood wound. My father,for all his superb horsemanship, had not noticed, or hid it superbly well, was that for me, horsemanship was and always had been about the very subtle art of the bodytalk.
I went on to dance at the age of seven...I was allowed because somehow it was rationalised I stood chance of less injury in toe shoes than in a saddle... Even without knowing consciously at such a young age, the bond between my father's stallion and I had been crafted and moulded from touch. Movement,gestures, glances and breathing were the whisperings of each other's secrets to one another, in full view and yet so utterly invisible to the naked eye.
The other day, an airline pilot quipped me a question and asked what it is I whisper to horses. The question made me smile: It's not so much what I whisper to horses, I replied, it's rather what they whisper to me. I doubt I'll ever stop learning. I know I will never stop listening....

Broccoli Chicken Cups Recipe
Frozen puff pastry makes these rich and creamy appetizers a snap to prepare. Sometimes, instead of chopping the tomatoes, I put a slice on top of each cup before popping them in the oven. —Marty Kingery of Point Pleasant, West Virginia
- 2-1/2 cups diced cooked chicken breast
- 1 can (10-3/4 ounces) reduced-fat reduced-sodium condensed cream of chicken soup, undiluted
- 1 cup frozen chopped broccoli, thawed and drained
- 2 small plum tomatoes, seeded and chopped
- 1 small carrot, grated
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 1 garlic clove, minced
- 1/4 teaspoon pepper
- 1 sheet frozen puff pastry, thawed
- 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- In a large bowl, combine the first eight ingredients; set aside. On a lightly floured surface, roll pastry into a 12-in. x 9-in. rectangle. Cut lengthwise into four strips and widthwise into three strips. Gently press puff pastry squares into muffin cups coated with cooking spray.
- Spoon chicken mixture into pastry cups. Sprinkle with Parmesan. Bake at 375° for 25-30 minutes or until golden brown. Serve warm. Yield: 1 dozen.

Meridian Township Parks and Recreation Department is excited to announce the grand opening and ribbon cutting ceremony of a bicycle pump track in Eastgate Park, 4023 S. Meridian Road, Okemos on Wednesday, June 30 at 6:00pm. A bicycle pump track is a continuous loop that you can ride by "pumping" over rollers and berms. "This is the first track of its kind in Meridian Township and unique to all of our other park amenities," stated LuAnn Maisner, Director of Parks and Recreation. "Even though the pump track will undoubtedly attract the teen and tween population, I foresee this activity involving entire families."
This pump track was funded and constructed by volunteers from the Michigan Mountain Biking Association (MMBA) who live in our community. The grand opening is an opportunity to learn first hand how to ride and maneuver the track. Bring your bicycles to experience it first hand. "Denny's Central Park Bicycles" and "Bikeworks" will provide a small number of trial bikes and helmets for use and the Meridian Township Police Department will be on site to register bikes and discuss bicycle safety.
Mark your calendars and join us as we celebrate and thank our local volunteers for their efforts in creating a park feature that the entire community can enjoy! Hot dogs and lemonade will be served following the ribbon cutting. Visit the Parks and Recreation website or call 853-4600 for more information.

"Grateful that I am a magnet for miracles"
- Michael Jackson
I honestly don't care what they do with the song. They can remix it, finish it or whatever...
BUT... release the original version too. That way fans get the 'actual Michael Jackson song' and whoever wants some fancy/possibly murdered and destroyed song get that too.
Gimme the original version and I'll be happy, I don't care about the other finished or remixes versions as long as I get the original version.
I'm really looking forward to this song!!!! Can't Wait!!!
so is this happening in the UK too? none of my sites i use (amazon, play) have a release date for this. Im very impatient I want to pre order too!
I want it in its original state. I don't mind them finishing it, but if they do, then I want to hear the original as well, so I can know what comes from Michael and what was added without his approval. I'm still disappointed that we never got to hear the full version of the demo of "Another Day" that was leaked. It sounded better to me than the final version they put on the album.Would you prefer DBMA to be released:
a) In it's original state as left by MJ (i.e. probably not complete).
b) In a completed state (finished by the estate), similar to how MJ may have done it if he was around (suitable for adult radio like "This Is It" e.g. BBC Radio 2).
c) In a completed state, suitable for success on youth radio and in the charts (i.e. similar to Elvis "A Little Less Conversation" remix).
After all the bullshit he said about Michael, I don't really want him to touch any of Michael's songs...Or finished by Quincy Jones.
Gimme the three versions, and a gin tonic please.

Casting a Kitchen Spell
Aaahhhhh.... Cape Cods' beloved symbol- the Cranberry- is finally here! For me, its' like pumpkins... meaning that Autumn has officially arrived in my kitchen. I do luv the first sighting of the ruby-jeweled little berries on the produce shelves; and, it has to be Ocean Spray! I guess I am a traditionalist after all lol.
My first kitchen experiments, years ago, always involved making pots of fresh cranberry sauce on the stove, for friends and family. I (a non-cook at the time) would tote the bowls to various holiday dinners and buffets, always winning compliments. Ha, how easy it was! Just follow the simple directions on back of the bag! Since those early years, I have tinkered with all sorts of cranberry-saucy variations. Some won applause, others... not so much. But, it is important to note, during the holidays, do not stray off the beaten path. I mean... traditionalists prefer their cranberry sauce the traditional way... every year... at least for the next 5 or 6 generations! It's in their DNA !
For me, the season is too short; so I buy lots of bags to toss in the freezer. They will last about 6 months, which is just about right up to Spring time. If by some chance you tire of fresh cranberry sauce, there are lots of other ways to use the berries.
Here are some of my easy tips:
Make a holiday ice mold for the punch bowl, filled with raw cranberries. It is so pretty and festive; all your friends will be in awe! Use in homemade muffins, apple tarts, quick breads, and turkey stuffing. Top your turkey sandwiches with a scoop of cranberry sauce too... it's a natural flavor combo. Cranberries lend themselves to sweet and spicy add-ins... such as chopped nuts, grated citrus zest, (especially orange or lime). Add fresh grated cinnamon, ginger, or whole cinnamon sticks to the cooking pot, and your house will smell heavenly! Think "chutneys" and "relish" and you can't go wrong. But these are just my simple ideas, I'm sure that there's lots more out there! Search the net, cook books, and family & friends for recipes!
As I write this, my first pot of fresh cranberries are simmering on the stove. I wish you could be here for the tasting, but since you are not… you may have to stir up your own pot of sauce! Yes, Cranberries are here once again, and I am one Happy Kitchen Witch!!!
