E-Journals Support at the UNT Libraries
Date: 2011
Creator: Phillips, Mark Edward; Weng, Neena; Jansing, Dianne; Waugh, Laura & Luetkemeyer, John
Description: This report discusses e-journals and the University of North Texas (UNT) Libraries. As the UNT Libraries continue to field requests from various groups on campus, it is evident that e-journals are a necessary service of a modern research institution and in most cases are one of the various digital scholarship activities that can and should be led by the research library on campus. In order to better understand the staffing and support levels required to meet the expectations faculty have of e-journal services, a thorough investigation and subsequent plan for next steps is required.

Customer Reviews
- Good boots, bad laces. Size down. Review by Jonathan
Price Value Quality Comfortable boots. Has lasted me a few years already. I originally ordered size 7 (since I was advised to go a size down from regular shoes), but had to size down to 6.5. The construction of the boot is made very well and has lasted a long time, but the stock shoe laces are not that great. I had to replace them with easier to tie ones.

Dielectric Conductivity Ground Constant mS/m Type 81 5000 Salt water 80 1 Fresh water 20 30 Pastoral, low hills, rich soil (Dallas TX to Lincoln NE) 13 5 Pastoral, medium hills and forestation, heavy clay soil (central VA) 10 2 Sandy, dry, flat, coastal 5 1 Cities, industrial areas 3 0.55 Desert (Idaho)
These graphs show forward gain for horizontal, vertical, and tilted orientation of a halfwave dipole for center heights between 3 and 50 feet. These are NEC results using the Sommerfeld-Norton ground model for a 98-MHz circularly polarized signal arriving at a 1° elevation angle. The gain reference is a circularly polarized isotropic antenna in free space. The difference between the solid and dotted green curves is F/B for the tilted dipole.
Apply the curves to any antenna by adding its gain in dBd to the Y axis. The model is for flat ground with a single specular reflection and no obstructions. Only general trends hold for irregular terrain where scattering at multiple points causes complex wave interference. The curves do not apply when local obstructions block the direct path.
Often unappreciated is that elevating an antenna may be the easiest and cheapest way to increase signal strength. For example, raising a dipole from 15 to 30 feet increases signal strength about 6 dB (5.6 dB if RG-6 feedline must be lengthened). This is similar to the gain a small Yagi would provide over the dipole with both antennas at 15 feet. Raising the Yagi to 21 feet would provide the same signal increase as horizontally stacking another at 15 feet.

Stourbridge thug jailed for terrifying robbery in victim's home
4:59pm Friday 14th September 2012 in Local
A STOURBRIDGE man was among a gang jailed for more than 30 years after subjecting their victim to a terrifying ordeal.
Timothy Partridge, from Trinity Road, was caged at Wolverhampton Crown Court for his part in the violent robbery of a 50-year-old ailing and immobile Cradley man in his 12th floor flat.
Judge Martin Walsh said it was clear Partridge, aged 47, along with Richard Homer and Aaron Rowbottom, had targeted their vulnerable victim who now felt his life had been ruined.
He said Vincent Homer - no relation to Richard Homer - had been "terrified" by the robbers who carried a screwdriver and a chisel as they tried to get away with property of great sentimental value.
Bernard Linnemann, prosecuting, said Rowbottom was known to Mr Homer and after he gained access to his flat he let in his two masked accomplices.
He said aggressive demands were made to Mr Homer to open the safe in his kitchen while the robbers also told him to give them the pin number to his cashcard.
Richard Homer went to get money from the account but Mr Homer had given him the wrong pin number and, when he returned to the flat, the victim was brutally punched in the face by Partridge.
The three men then took cameras, mobile telephones and £30 in cash from the safe together with jewellery belonging to Mr Homer's late wife.
Rowbottom then left with the correct pin number to Mr Homer's bank account but he was arrested by police officers who had been summoned to the multi-storey block.
A friend of Mr Homer's went to call on him and he heard the demands being made by the robbers as they trashed a bedroom and he quickly notified police.
In a victim impact statement Mr Homer told officers he was terrified the men would return to kill him and the robbery was "something he would never get over."
Richard Homer, 41, of St George's Road, Dudley, Rowbottom, 34, of Northfield Road, Netherton and Partridge all admitted robbery and they were each jailed for ten-and-a-half years.
The judge told them they all had extremely bad criminal records and added; "This was a particularly serious robbery involving a vulnerable victim who was unwell and immobile."

Video and mobile search, as well as marketers' increased willingness to pay a premium for behavioral targeting and mobile search, are going to propel the search industry forward, according to the 2008 State of the Market survey of advertisers and agencies by the Search Engine Marketing Professional Organization (SEMPO).
Seventy-five percent of the 890 search engine advertisers and SEM agencies SEMPO polled say they'd pay more for clicks behaviorally targeted to in-market consumers. On average, advertisers say they'd pay 10 percent more for dayparted and demographic segmenting, and 13 percent more for behavioral search targeting.

It's commonly accepted in the online publishing world that internet users don't like ads. While 'hate' might be strong word, it's hard to argue that advertising is an internet user's best friend.
For publishers relying on ads to pay the bills, that usually means one thing: striking an appropriate balance. Enough ads to pay the bills, not so many ads that your users 'hate' you.

Neuromarketing. Neurometrics. In-store shopper insights. There's a lot to like about the bleeding edge of ecommerce these days, but the cold reality is this: it's time for basic internet marketing block-and-tackling strategies.
So many observers and front-line retailers are truly excited about this period of time that it is completely forgivable to race ahead with technology. Research about how consumers perceive and then buy that's coming to the fore from people like Paco Underhill is compelling, and new customer behavior data from companies like Nielsen and Microsoft is brilliant. All the in-store technology that will blend the in-store experience with the online experience needs to be quickly adopted. But let's face it. The bankruptcies and inconsistent discounts happening offline are creating a unique opportunity online. We see four very predictable ways to take advantage:

Growth forecasts for 2009 continue to be revised. Emarketer, following on the heels of the IAB's tentative outlook on 2009, has taken its internet ad spend projection down to 4.5 percent. It predicted an 8.9 percent bump last December.
And like the IAB, eMarketer analysts are hailing the projection as a good achievement in a terrible economy. That's for internet spending. On a global, multimedia level today WPP's GroupM revised U.S. spending this year to fall by 4.3 percent in 2009 to approximately $155 billion (versus the 3 percent drop predicted in December) and drop another 6.8 percent to about $144.5 billion next year.

The IAB presented its statistical and philosophical take on 2008 today, and while it tracked some surprising growth numbers it left more than a few questions unanswered for the balance of 2009.
The important numbers: total US internet advertising growth topped 10.6 percent in 2009 when offline media dropped 2.4 percent. The industry crossed the $6 billion plateau for the first time during the fourth quarter of last year, but it came on the heels of the lowest sequential quarter-to-quarter growth rate since 2002. Search was up 10.5 percent over 2007 and the much-maligned category of display ads bounced 8 percent. However, display ads contracted 4 percent in the fourth quarter.

No secret that performance-based advertising is dominating internet marketing. But brands are still trying to find the right mix for all those performance options, email, and a rapidly declining display market.
According to IDC research analyst Caroline Dangson, the display market contracted by 7 percent in Q4 of 2008, and will continue to see decreased spending until the end of this year. With this in mind, several brands are trying to find some balance for all the advertising options available.

Internet marketing analysts are finding more reasons to be cheerful. Presentations at yesterday's CPL Summit in New York supported the recent theme that conditions for a second half surge are starting to take shape.
The summit, sponsored by Pontiflex, focused on differing approaches to pay-for-performance advertising. Growth in PPC, search, and pay-per-lead are part of the reasons the second half of 2009 could be brighter than many projections that were revised downward over the past few weeks. Imran Khan, Managing Director, J.P. Morgan, singled out three more reasons for cautious optimism:

Libyan followers of the Ansar al-Shariah Brigades chant anti-U.S. slogans during a protest in front of the Tibesti Hotel, in Benghazi, Libya, Friday, Sept. 14, 2012, as part of widespread anger across the Muslim world about a film ridiculing Islam's Prophet Muhammad. One of the leading suspects in an attack that killed the U.S. ambassador and three other Americans is the Libyan-based Islamic militant group Ansar al-Shariah, led by former Guantanamo detainee Sufyan bin Qumu. The group denied responsibility in a video Friday but did acknowledge its fighters were in the area during what it called a "popular protest" at the consulate, according to Ben Venzke of the IntelCenter, a private analysis firm that monitors Jihadist media for the U.S. intelligence community.

Three Days in LA
Three perfect days in Los Angeles could go something like this. First, the sunshine would have to be out and dripping its glorious rays all over the town. Then, each event goes off without a hitch. Throw in a few pleasant surprises and more than enough great people to round out the days there and not much can go wrong.
On Thursday upon arrival the sunshine taunted us out onto the bike. With just a few short hours to go before the screening event of the three films that we put together with RSA Films a quick jaunt was in order. Then, under a cloudless sky, the films were screened, s'mores* were eaten and awareness made for the Fireflies Tour 2011.
*S'mores are a popular campfire treat in North America consisting of roasted marshamallow and chocolate, sandwiched between crackers.
The next day was a bit more of a clandestine adventure. When the Metropolis -like maw of Oakley's US headquarters swallowed us whole there was no turning back. Luckily for us we ran into Coryn and Nicola from the best Women's racing team in the US — Peanut Butter and Co.'s 2012 Racing Team. They seemed to make it out alright, so we figured that it would be safe behind the fortified walls.
Saturday was the only day that was producing questions in people's minds. Would the weather hold? How would SoCal's residents handle a little wet weather? We, as residents of Portland, Oregon are very much used to the rain, but as the days approached, the same question kept coming in. "Would the ride still happen?" We stuck to our guns with a "Rain or Shine" approach and things could not have been better.
The Gentlemen's Ride out of Bike Effect in Santa Monica was magnificent. Sunshine, sparkling views of the Pacific Ocean and the chance to work on the climbing legs in February. Not a bad way to round out a few great days in California.
Thanks to everyone who came out on Thursday and the ride on Saturday. Without the great people that attend these events and help us spread the word —that riding bicycles is fun —we would be nothing. So, if you find yourself in the Los Angeles area and are in need of anything Rapha (or a nice little shot of espresso) do stop by and visit with the fine folks at Bike Effect.

Building relationships, and alleyways
When Jeff McNesby joined Lancaster city's public works department late last year, he knew he had his work cut out for him.
"They said, 'We have 25 years worth of work for you to do,'" McNesby recalled. "It's a long-term commitment. It's not three to five years."
McNesby, a civil engineer, was hired to be the city's stormwater program manager. He will be responsible for implementing a 25-year, $140 million plan adopted by the city that embraces "green infrastructure."
The plan is to plant trees, replace asphalt with porous pavement and add rain gardens and green roofs as ways to divert rainwater into the ground and out of the city's combined stormwater and sanitary sewer system.
If the plan succeeds, 750 million gallons of stormwater will be diverted, thereby preventing overflows of raw sewage into the Conestoga River from the city's wastewater treatment plant.
Those overflows, which eventually find their way to the Chesapeake Bay, have caught the attention of the federal Environmental Protection Agency. The city hopes to stay ahead of mandated EPA orders by acting on its own.
And McNesby is here to make it happen.
He jumped in three months ago with projects that were already planned. Those are being funded with a $7 million loan from the state Infrastructure Investment Authority.
Many of the projects already in the works, such as adding rain gardens or porous-pavement basketball courts to local parks, are being done on city-owned land.
Yet 87 percent of the city is privately owned, so to reach its goal, most of the projects must be done in conjunction with private property owners.
On his desk recently, McNesby had plans for the repavement of a private alleyway. As with a city alley redone last year, it will be sloped to allow rainwater to drain between paving stones set along a center line into a stone drainage bed below.
The alleyway will be one of several project templates that can be reused across the city, he said. And, McNesby said, it's important that the private owners, whose property lines run to the alley center, come away pleased with the project.
"Our goal is to make these people so happy that they will help us talk to the next people," said McNesby, who sees his job as building relationships as well as alleyways.
McNesby, 47, is accustomed to dealing with private entities. That was his job before coming to Lancaster. He spent 15 years in coastal South Carolina working with developers in that growing area to have them use green infrastructure in new construction.
Instead of building raised islands with concrete curbs within parking lots, McNesby convinced developers to build rain gardens.
Rain gardens still would dot the parking lots, but they'd be recessed so that the rainwater would flow into the grasses and trees, then soak into the ground, he said.
Lancaster, he said, is in the opposite situation of coastal South Carolina. Here, he's using those techniques to retrofit an old city.
"I saw it as an incredible professional opportunity," he said.
Green infrastructure is not really new, he said. It's been talked about for nearly two decades. Still, few places have done more than a couple of demonstration projects.
In Lancaster, he was told that officials weren't interested in demonstration projects -- they're embracing green infrastructure comprehensively citywide.
"Lancaster is one of the leaders in the nation. That is one of the things that drew me here," McNesby said.
Another attraction of the $78,000-a-year position is its proximity to extended family. A New Jersey native, McNesby grew up in the Philadelphia area. The move to Lancaster brings him and his wife and four young children closer to home -- possibly for a long time.

CEO of Instagram, Kevin Systrom, reportedly did not want to sell the company and had full intent to grow his business with the $50 million investment. The funding, which came from Thrive Capital, Sequoia Capital, and Greylock Capital, proved to be too much heat in the kitchen for Facebook, who has been reportedly threatened by Instagram for some time. In a move that took even the most tech-savvy individuals by surprise, Facebook solidified the $1 billion deal within 24 hours -- literally doubling Instagram's value over night, while subsequently taking out one of their biggest rivals. In case y'all didn't get the memo, Zuckerberg does not appreciate competition and will do what is necessary to maintain his reign. Even if that means buying and creating other multi-millionaires! (You hear that Pinterest, Twitter?) If divided evenly (they aren't, unfortunately), Instagram's mere 13 employees would be worth $76.9 million each.
In case you're not grasping the magnitude of this acquisition, take a look at this nifty chart of past high-dollar buy-outs:

While she will no longer participate in the company's rental program, she will remain licensed with them and continue to be an active member of the sales team.
During the transition you can call 964-2210 with questions and concerns, and Linda Konings, a property manager with the company, can help with rental questions as well.
The Gasparilla Inn & Club has announced the appointment of Jamie Kuligowski as group sales manager. In this position, Kuligowski will lead the sales efforts for groups and meetings at the resort, introducing prospective clients to all the possibilities that await for those who gather at The Inn.
"Having recently served as one of The Inn's catering managers, Jamie brings valuable experience coordinating all types of events at our historic resort. In her new role, she will manage the outreach to prospective and past clients, sharing the group experience at The Inn, from our personal, attentive service to the extensive amenities offered at the resort," said Jack G. Damioli, president and general manager of the resort.
Prior to joining The Gasparilla Inn & Club, Kuligowski oversaw resort reservations and assisted front desk operations at Manasota Beach Club in Englewood, Fla. She has also served in hospitality and marketing positions for the Orlando Magic, Radisson Hotel UCF and the City of New York.

I returned the Head Torch to store as when fitting the batteries it was not working. I thought it would be a case of replacement item. The helpful assistant checked all the available torches in the store and none were working either. Very upset with quality of product, also my travelling which is 25 miles to the store which I had to do twice and then not be able to give the torch as a present . The staff were very helpful and were also upset about the product not working. I would be grateful that as a gesture of goodwill you could consider supplying me a Monkey head Torch with your compliments. Thank You.

As I was purchasing my other goods your assistant Chris pointed out your other offers to me and I saw the head torch with a panda face on it , as I do a lot of running in the early mornings I thought it would be a good idea to keep me visible so I bought one.

Yes, I just got my Otterbox Defender case and the lightning to 30pin adapter and it works fine. The Otterbox Defender case leaves enough room for the adapter to fit.

This one will not fit (too wide), but the more expensive one with the 7" wire and smaller lightning connector works just fine.

Tickets: $10/$8 students
An 18-year old Baltimore native, Nico Sarbanes is currently enrolled in the Schulich School of Music at McGill University in Montreal, where he is a Jazz Trumpet Performance major. In high school, he was selected multiple times to the Baltimore County Honors Jazz Ensemble, and was selected to be the lead trumpet in both the 2009-2010 and 2010-2011 Maryland All-State Jazz Bands. In his senior year he was one of five trumpeters selected to participate in the All-Eastern Honors Jazz Ensemble, a group representing more than eleven states in the northeastern U.S. In addition to his experience on the horn, Nico is a talented jazz vocalist, performing standards out of the Great American Songbook around the Baltimore/DC area.
Aaron Seeber is an 19-year old drummer from Bethesda, Maryland. He is currently attending SUNY Purchase, where he is pursuing a Jazz Studies major on a scholarship. Aaron attended Walt Whitman High School, where he played in the school's award winning Jazz Ensemble. He is a member of The Jazz Project Quintet and 3JAzzTrio. He was a member of the 2008-2010 Montgomery County Honors Jazz Ensemble and Paul Carr's Jazz Academy Big Band and Combo, which won the Silver Spring Mingus Big Band Festival. Aaron was selected into the 2008/2009 Maryland All State Jazz Band, was awarded a full scholarship to the 2009 and 2010 Berklee 5-week Summer Programs, and was selected as a finalist for the 2010 Grammy Jazz Ensemble. Aaron has had the incredible opportunity to share the stage with Randy Brecker, Branford Marsalis, Paul Carr, Tim Warfield, Pepe Gonzalez, Jon Ozment, Robert Redd, and many others. He has played at many of the Washington D.C. Metropolitan Area jazz venues including Blues Alley, Twins Jazz, The Kennedy Center, Atlas Theater, Roundhouse Theater and many others.
As a young emerging saxophonist, Braxton Cook has already garnered several honors and accolades. He has been honored to be one of 30 other high school musicians selected from a nationwide competition to participate in the 2009 Grammy Jazz ensemble, held during the same week as the Grammy Awards. Shortly thereafter, he won a first prize Gold medal in the 2009 National ACT-SO competition sponsored by the NAACP. During his freshman year at Georgetown University, Braxton was selected as NFAA's 2010 YoungARTS Finalist and participated in a fully-paid expense week in Miami, Florida with 150 other Finalists. While there he received the Silver Medal and was selected to participate in another YoungARTS week in New York.
He's performed with Wynton Marsalis, Joe Lovano, and Herbie Hancock just to name a few. He has also been accepted into New School of Music, Manhattan School of Music, Howard University, and Georgetown University. He attended Georgetown University with full tuition scholarship benefits for two years. While there, he studied English while still practicing and honing his skills as a saxophonist. Then in Fall of 2011, Braxton transferred to the prestigious Juilliard School on the Irene Diamond Scholarship. During his time there, Braxton will continue to study music privately with Ron Blake, Steve Wilson and perform at various local clubs in the NYC area."
Blake Meister performs and records locally, nationally and internationally. He has performed and/or recorded with a diverse group of world renowned musicians that includes Marc Copland, Larry Willis, Sid Simmons, Benito Gonzalez, Warren Wolf, Buddy Wachter, Paul Bollenback, Yotam Silberstein, Marin Alsop, Jamie Laredo, Alex Norris, Byron Landham, Ralph Peterson, and Gary Thomas. He has received several awards and grants, most recently the 2012 Individual Artist Award for non-classical composition from the Maryland State Arts Council for his upcoming debut album, Septagon. The album, which features Gary Thomas, Paul Bollenback, Marc Copland, and Ralph Peterson, consists of eight original compositions and is slated for release in 2012. Meister is currently a bassist for the American Studio Orchestra, a multi-media, cross-genre ensemble, and has been a member of several traditional orchestras in the Mid-Atlantic corridor.
Born and raised in Philadelphia, Meister began on electric bass, later honing his skills on the double bass (and piano) in college. A member of the first full class to matriculate in Peabody's jazz studies department, Meister attracted attention as a student, receiving both the Alice and Leary Taylor and Richard Franko Goldman awards in performance, as well as multiple career development grants. He went on to earn a master's degree in orchestral studies at Catholic University's Benjamin T. Rome School of Music, under a full-tuition scholarship. Meister currently serves on the faculty of the Peabody Conservatory, teaching lessons and an improvisation class. Before joining the Peabody conservatory faculty, Meister served on the faculty of the preparatory division at Peabody, helping to develop a more comprehensive and cohesive jazz studies program as co-coordinator.
Known for his uncanny facility and distinct approach to improvisation, Meister is quickly garnering recognition among musicians and critics alike. In addition to Septagon, Meister can be heard as a sideman on several other releases, most recently including Andrea Wood's Dhyana and Todd Simon's Simon Sez.
Jake Silverman is a young jazz pianist/organist from the Baltimore, Maryland area. Jake started playing piano at the age of 6. He studied classical and jazz piano under Scott Knight for 12 years before departing for college.
Jake has studied jazz performance with Benny Russell, Blake Meister, Greg Hatza and others. Under Benny Russell's direction, Jake played piano in Maryland Conservatory of Music's Youth Jazz Ensemble from 2005-2007, and in Harford Community College's Jazz Ensembles and Jazz Combos from 2007-2010. Jake has had the extraordinary opportunity to study jazz piano and B3 organ with Greg Hatza, a true master of both instruments.
Jake has attended jazz programs at two of the world's most distinguished music schools, the Eastman School of Music of Rochester University and the Peabody Institute of The Johns Hopkins University. Jake participated in the Eastman School of Music's Summer Jazz program in 2008 and 2009 and played piano in their jazz ensembles and combos under the direction of Harold Danko, John Nyerges, Bob Sneider, Dariusz Terefenko, Bill Tiberio, and Howard Potter. In 2008-2009, Jake also attended the Preparatory Program of The Peabody Institute of The Johns Hopkins University, where he participated in the Preparatory's Jazz Ensemble under the direction of Ian Sims and Blake Meister and studied jazz piano with Blake Meister.
Jake was selected and played as the pianist in Maryland's High School All State Jazz Ensemble in 2009 and 2010 under the direction John D'earth and Jim McFalls (2009) and Jeff Jarvis (2010). In 2009, the Maryland Higher Education Commission honored Jake with a Distinguished Scholar in the Arts Award, a selective award that provides a $12,000 merit-based scholarship to attend a Maryland college or university. Through his ensemble performances, Jake has performed at Kilbourn Hall at the Eastman School of Music, the Miriam A Friedberg Hall at the Peabody Institute, and Towson University's Center for the Arts.

I am super excited for the new release in the series. What does everyone think about where they are taking the story? I think its really interesting the setting they are using since you don't see a lot of games in that era. I cant wait!
I am super excited for the new release in the series. What does everyone think about where they are taking the story? I think its really interesting the setting they are using since you don't see a lot of games in that era. I cant wait!
I'm super excited for the release. Having played all the previous games in this series, and being a HUGE history buff, I think this is going to be insanely interesting. The trailer looked amazing and beautiful! I'm also curious to see this new engine they used in this one. Going to be epic! Can't wait to get my hands on this one
To say that I am excited about the upcoming game is an understatement. I've had two Desmond hoodies ordered since January, the October encyclopedia ordered since March, the limited edition version of the game pre-ordered through Best Buy, and will be picking up that Crystal Vita bundle for Liberation when that comes out. I also had friends of mine who attended PAX snag a pin for me (that is always kept in my purse), and another friend of mine shipped me the inflatable tomahawk they had at SDCC since I was unable to go.
I'm going to miss Ezio, as I became rather attached to him, but I am looking forward to learning about Connor through the game and the upcoming novel. It will be interesting to see how his story ties in with the other games and Desmond. I'm also curious about Desmond's state after coming out of the coma and having his father with him. The end of October can't get here soon enough!
Massive thanks to EmperorxZurg for the sweet sig!
As someone who got the chance to mess around with the AC3 multiplayer.. I CAN'T WAIT! I need this now!
Twitter @Sunie_FDC
So when I went to gamestop today I pre-ordered all these games and the guy looks at me and goes anything else? HAHAHA I cant wait for fall!
I can't wait to try combat on the high seas. It looks really impressive and I don't recall playing anything like that in another video game.
I know there are some games out there exclusively dedicated to that kind of maritime warfare, but that really is for a niche market. When the AC3 battleship feature was unveiled a few months ago I was so excited. Same for the moving hay bales.
One thing I've always adored about the AC franchise is that it's an annual title that never fails to add new features and continue an intriguing story. Not a lot of annual titles/sequels can claim the same.
Massive thanks to EmperorxZurg for the sweet sig!
Did everyone get to see the new trailer?! It looks amazing and makes me even more excited! I'm debating on replaying all of them on stream to catch everyone up before the new game comes out <3

Hayes: Conservatives Are Creating Their Own Electoral Enemies
Chris Hayes and his Story of the Week on the predicament for Republican party and conservatives who are "creating their own electoral enemies" with "its visceral appeal to anxieties and fears of white Christians."
After listening to Republicans discussing their some of their losses after this last election, I'd say they're more than aware that they've got a problem, but are unwilling to admit they need to do more than put a little nicer window dressing on their policies. And I don't see them giving up on the fearmongering any time soon. It's all they've got left.
White identity politics doomed 2012 Republican effort:
Of all the surprising and revealing results from Tuesday night, there is one relatively small bit of exit polling data that I think is the key to understanding the entire evening.
You've probably heard by now that Mitt Romney won white voters by a sizable margin, while Barack Obama ran up huge margins among African-Americans and Latinos.
In fact, he won Latinos by 71% to 27%, an even wider margin than in 2008 when he won them 67% to 31%. But almost no one has noticed what to me is the most shocking result, and that's how the two candidates did with Asian-American voters.
Now, Asian-Americans made up a very small sliver of the electorate, just 3%, so a presidential candidate's performance within that group doesn't necessarily carry with it massive electoral consequences.
But Asian-Americans are also, according to the latest census, the fastest growing racial sub category in America. In fact, the census projects that by mid-century they will make up 9% of the country. And as it happens, Asian-Americans are also the nation's highest earning ethnicity, with median incomes even higher than those of whites.
So you might have predicted that Mitt Romney would do well with them, since he won among voters making more than $100,000 a year.
But he did not. He got creamed, losing Asian-American voters 73% to 26%. This is a shocking result not only because just 20 years ago George HW Bush carried Asian-Americans comfortably, or because the margin is so wide,but because the entire category of Asian-American is so obviously a construction there's little reason to suspect members of the group would vote with each other in any discernible pattern.
Think about it for a moment: What exactly do a Filipino nurse in Hartford, Connecticut, a Pakistani geologist in the oil fields of Texas and a 5th-generation Chinese-American cop have in common? The same could be said for Latinos, of course, and even African-Americans, heck, even—gasp—white people. That's because race is a social construction, not something out there in the world, but something we as a society create the rules, rhetoric and identities for. And in the political process nothing more assuredly creates firm political group identities than the experience of prejudice, contempt, marginalization and condescension. That is: In American history, the racial identity of those not classified as white tends to be forged in the furnace of contempt by the majority.
That is the grand irony of this election and more broadly the predicament of the Republican party. Conservatives are creating their own electoral enemies. The beating heart of modern conservatism is its visceral appeal to anxieties and fears of white Christians. This is a different statement than saying the beating heart of modern conservatism is white racism or white supremacy. It's not, or not principally. It is simply white "identity" politics, with all of the pathos and ugliness that implies. And if you don't believe that, go read some conservative comment threads, or click over to the Drudge Report or Fox News, two outlets with a preternatural sense of the deepest anxieties of the modern conservative base.
Look at the ceaseless coverage of the New Black panthers, and voter fraud and immigrants living high on the hog off government welfare, and the absolute frenzy the right whipped up over the so-called Ground Zero Mosque.
Once you understand this then you can see that the Republican party's problems are deeper than, say, Republican opposition to comprehensive immigration reform, or even the far less controversial DREAM Act. That policy opposition is a symptom of the problem, not the cause. The deeper issue is that for conservative politicians and networks and websites there is simply too much to be gained by feeding the sense of persecution and siege that many white Christians feel down to their toes. I'm not sure what is going to shift those incentives, because that insecurity, as an emotional fact is real and isn't going away.
This does not mean demography is destiny, since the construction of political identities that correlate to our racial categories is a dynamic process and not a fixed fact about humans, and it does not mean that Democrats are ensured some permanent majority in perpetuity because their ability to make the electorate look like the country — that is their ability to turn out their voters — may wax and wane depending on the candidate and the election.
But it does mean that only way our politics avoids the increasingly ugly spectacle of a revanchist party attempting desperately to strengthen its appeal to a shrinking pool of white voters, is if the movement's leaders show some genuine leadership and stop cultivating their base's worst instincts.

Ohio Permit Restrictions - Tag
Ohio Learners Permit Restrictions
Lack of driving experience is one of the major risk factors when it comes to driving. New drivers simply don't have the skills required to recognize a situation that can potentially lead to a traffic accident. This the reason why the Ohio Bureau of Motor Vehicles (BMV) sets a number of restrictions that apply to all Ohio temporary instruction permit holders, commonly known as Ohio learners permit restrictions. If you receive your temporary permit before you turn 18, you will also need to observe additional rules that are part of the graduated drivers license program. Make sure you know what Ohio temporary permit restrictions apply to you and follow them whenever you are behind the wheel, failure to observe these rules may result in your driving privileges being suspended or revoked.

If you say so.
Made several buys from 3.71 down to 3.29. Cheap shares harder to get now.
Yes he is and he is a real #$%$ on that website.
Thanks for your input and enthusiasm. In the words of a famous coach,"We are what our stock price says we are."
I second that emotion!
Are you frocking her?
I own 28500 shares. The smartest guy I know just bought an additional 50000 at 3.54. He is also a large bond holder. I don't see the "suffering" lasting much longer.
#$%$ all thubsdowners-you know who you are.
So I can be with Duckheads like you on penney stock message boards.
I meant buy the 20 puts.
Sell the 20 puts-you'll make a fortune.
Any more clichés in your lexicon?
That's what your girlfriend tells me.
How stupid.
Lets all sell lol.
Where's the apology? Of course you were wrong shorty.
