I really have a problem about how people view me. One reason may be that I'm gay, but that hardly makes me uncomfortable. What really gets me is just how I'm viewed personality-wise. Example:
I don't have much money, but my roommates have always let me drink anyway. Recently, though, a few things happened that made me feel really uncomfortable:
1. I was asked to throw down money for beer and I could only produce a dollar in change. My roommate then said, "What is this? We just won't have a party this week, it's cool." = humiliation
2. I hadn't paid for beer at all, but thought my roommate wouldn't mind if I made a Kahlua, as he was making one for another roommate right across from me. When I tried to do it, he took it from me and told me that I shouldn't try to do that before asking, and especially if I hadn't ever paid for beer before. In that situation, I felt so awkward around him that I felt afraid to ask, and felt I'd feel even more humiliated for asking. Afterwards, I went in my room and didn't come down for the rest of the day, charting out bad aspects of my personality and how to stop being a moocher, after much research.
I constantly feel like I'm causing everyone around me to feel uncomfortable, and I feel awkward around other people. I want to be my roommates' friends, but I feel like they talk about me secretly behind my back.
I constantly have this feeling that people always perceive me as less-than or just annoying or unpleasant to be around, even though they invite me down to beer pong, etc. despite my lack of moneyI feel that they're doing it to discreetly humiliate me even more, in order to make fun of me later when they're by themselves.
I'm really worried about myself. I don't feel like I want to do anything violent or harmful, etc. to them or myself, but I just have this constant feeling, in addition to worry, fear, inhibition and just general awkwardness and indecisiveness about even the smallest physical movements (note, I've been off of Xanax for 2 months, for inability/inhibition to find a psychiatrist).
What to do? Is this social anxiety or schizophrenia?

Contact author: Sandra L. Gillam, Department of Communicative Disorders and Deaf Education, Utah State University, 1000 Old Main Hill, Logan, UT 84322-1000. E-mail: sgillam{at}cc.usu.edu
PURPOSE: The results of recent survey studies suggest that speech-language pathologists base most of their clinical decisions on information they were taught during their graduate programs, their clinical experience, and the opinions of colleagues (T. Wolf & J. Balderson, 2005; R. Zipoli & M. Kennedy, 2005). This is contrary to the principles of evidence-based practice (EBP), in which clinical decisions arise from the integration of scientific evidence, clinician experience, and client needs. Our field's interest in EBP is relatively young. Currently, there are no published committee-derived EBP guidelines for providing language intervention services for children with language disorders. Until national or international organizations publish recommendations from EBP guideline writing panels, clinicians will need to make personal evidence-based decisions with relatively little assistance from outside sources. The purpose of this article is to summarize a seven-step process for making local EBP decisions.
METHOD: The authors provide information about a method for forming clinical questions, finding relevant scientific studies, and evaluating those studies that requires relatively little time and few external resources. The authors also provide a system for integrating scientific evidence with their own expertise and training within the context of their employment settings. Finally, an example is provided to show clinicians how to use the evidence-based decision-making process to answer a clinical question about clinical methods for improving grammatical morphology in children with speech-language impairment.
CONCLUSION: It is possible for clinicians to make time- and resource-efficient evidence-based decisions that integrate scientific evidence, clinical expertise, and studentparent preferences.

Panel holds hearing on court space waste
General Services Administration looking to re-designate Dyer Building to Miami Dade College
Half-empty buildings sucking up taxpayer dollars and unused buildings in disrepair sit in the heart of downtown Miami.
In a rare meeting outside Washington, D.C., the House Oversight and Government Reform panel convened Friday to discuss what to do about the waste.
U.S. Rep. Frederica Wilson, who participated in the field hearing, said she is focused on the Dyer Building at 300 NE First Avenue, which has been sitting empty since 2008. It opened in 1933.
Designated historic, the Dyer Building was once home to the federal courthouse in Miami but is now in disrepair. Wilson said she thinks it would best be used by the students right across the street at Miami Dade College.
"I'm hoping when GSA goes back to Washington, they will knock down the hurdles and do whatever they can to make sure that the Dyer building is ceded to Miami Dade College because it's what we need," Wilson said.
Nearby Miami Dade College is proposing a cultural and educational center for the building.
"I think it's a building going to waste," said student Martin Gross. "I would think it would be an excellent edition to expand the school."
The process to re-designate a federal building to be used for a college is long and potentially costly. Wilson said the benefit would still outweigh any federal or state money used to repair it.
"It is my hope that this hearing will help bring about an end to this impasse and to this waste," Wilson said.
A new Government Accountability Office audit shows that 33 newer courthouses have some 3.5 million square feet of unused space, costing taxpayers an extra $51 million a year.
In a statement, a spokesperson for the GSA said the Obama Administration is setting aggressive goals for using federal real estate assets more efficiently.
"As part of our efforts to make more efficient use of the government's real estate assets and save taxpayer dollars, GSA engaged the public and industry on ideas for repositioning the Dyer Courthouse. We continue to engage stakeholders, and we are moving forward with the next steps in getting this property off of the government's books.
GSA initially held on to the Dyer Courthouse because we believed that we could use it to house other federal agencies in the region. Now we are moving forward with the process and the due diligence required to get this building off of our books."

It was written by Li Xian Gi. His pen name is Huan Zhu Lou Zhu. Not sure if that is correct.
"Power tends to corrup and absolute power corrupt absolutely" ~ Lord Acton
It's one of the weirdest but mysterious wuxia story about demons and warriors fighting for peace abd I like the 1990 one even they put a lot of special effects but look fake.
You meant Shu shan zhuan?
The blood demon died in the hands of the 2 protaganist, after they displayed the dual swords combination. The only skill that could defeat the blood demon, or so they say in the movie.
The newest adaptation just some years ago was pretty nice at that time, the only junk was the final epic battle with the blood demon. The blood demon pwned shaolin and other major sect with ease, yet, faced against the protaganist he lasted an amazing 10 seconds or so, literally; and the movie ended with the audience trying to piece together all the *** kickery the blood demon packed and why the hell he got pwned by 2 nubs.

text: Jan 16, 2006 - Claremont, Calif. - Maria Klawe, dean of Princeton University's School of Engineering and Applied Sciences, has been chosen to serve as the fifth president of Harvey Mudd College (HMC). A renowned computer scientist and scholar, Klawe will be the first woman to serve as president of HMC, which is celebrating its 50th anniversary this year. She will begin her duties July 1, 2006, succeeding Jon C. Strauss, who will retire after more than nine years of service as president. Klawe arrives at a time when the college has achieved new levels of pre-eminence in undergraduate education of engineers, scientists and mathematicians and has earned a reputation for attracting the nation's brightest students and faculty committed to teaching and research. "We are extraordinarily pleased that Maria Klawe will be leading Harvey Mudd College into its second half-century," said R. Michael Shanahan, chair of the HMC board of trustees. "Her keen understanding and appreciation for the value of undergraduate education and research makes her the perfect choice for us. She understands our mission and will guide the college in formulating and articulating a vision for engineering, science and mathematics education in the new century. Her experience in industry will be a major asset as we continue to develop corporate relationships." Klawe earned her B.Sc. and Ph.D. degrees in mathematics at the University of Alberta, Canada, and began her tenure at Princeton in January 2003. Prior to that, she held academic positions at the University of British Columbia (UBC), the University of Toronto and Oakland University. During her 15 years at the University of British Columbia she served as head of the Department of Computer Science from 1988 to 1995, vice president of student and academic services from 1995 to 1998, and dean of science from 1998 to 2002. She also spent eight years in industry, serving at IBM Almaden Research Center, in San Jose, Calif., first as a research scientist, then as manager of the Discrete Mathematics Group and manager of the Mathematics and Related Computer Science Department. Her teaching interests center on making mathematics accessible and appealing to all students, and the use of technology to enhance learning and motivation. In 2005, she won the Princeton Engineering Student Council teaching award for her work in teaching second-semester calculus. In 2002, she organized the Aphasia Project at UBC, bringing together faculty from human-computer interaction, psychology and audiology and speech sciences to produce handheld devices to improve the quality of life and independence of people with aphasia (loss of language most commonly caused by stroke). Klawe has been active in many organizations promoting women and leadership in science and technology, and is currently chair of the board for the Anita Borg Institute for Women and Technology in Palo Alto, Calif. She is a current member of the Executive Committee, the past president (2002-2004), and also a fellow (1995) of the Association of Computing Machinery (ACM), and was a board member of the Computing Research Association. Her service to other organizations includes work as a trustee for the Institute for Pure and Applied Mathematics at UCLA, the Mathematical Sciences Research Institute in Berkeley, and the American Mathematical Society. She holds honorary doctorates from Dalhousie University (2005), Queen's University (2004), the University of Waterloo (2003), and Ryerson University (2001). "I'm thrilled by the opportunity to be the next president of Harvey Mudd College," Klawe said. "I cannot imagine a more exciting time to be at Mudd, or a time when its mission of educating scientists and engineers has been more important. Given the ongoing changes in science and engineering industries and in the global economy, there are many new opportunities and challenges in science and engineering education. "I can't wait to get started," Klawe stated, with her trademark enthusiasm. "The world needs Mudd to continue its wonderful track record of innovation in undergraduate engineering, science and mathematics education, and to lead the way in developing the next generation of educational advances. The college has the right group of talented and dedicated people: faculty, students, alumni, staff and trustees to do this. Mudd also has the level of spirit, creativity, drive and energy that will be needed." "I am pleased and excited that Dr. Maria Klawe will lead us as the fifth president of Harvey Mudd College," said Hal Van Ryswyk, professor of chemistry, chair of the faculty and a member of the search committee. "You only need about ten seconds of conversation with her to discover that she is a true 'Mudder.' The faculty look forward to working with Dr. Klawe as we build upon HMC's tradition of excellence in undergraduate education." An advocate for women and minorities pursuing careers in engineering, science and mathematics (fields where they are traditionally underrepresented), Klawe is part of a trend that emerged during Strauss' tenure. The percent of women students at HMC has risen from 20 percent (1990) to 33 percent (2005) and the percentage of women faculty from 17 percent (1995) to 35 percent (2005). HMC ranks second in the nation in percentage of women faculty in engineering. Nancy Bekavac, president of Scripps College, HMC's neighbor in The Claremont Colleges Consortium, said of Klawe: "She is bright, enormously committed to teaching, politically astute, self-confident, unstuffy and informal, pragmatic and utterly down to earth. She will be a wonderful addition to the Council of Presidents of The Claremont Colleges." Klawe was selected after an extensive nationwide search that began when Strauss announced his retirement last year. The 16-member search committee, assisted by the firm A.T. Kearney Executive Search, comprised faculty, alumni, trustees, staff and students of the college and was chaired by Trustees Ed Johnson and William Mingst. Elaine Hart '06, president of the Associated Students of Harvey Mudd College (ASHMC) and one of two students who served on the search committee, said of Klawe's selection: "In addition to her professional qualifications, Dr. Klawe will bring an exceptional level of energy, enthusiasm and commitment to the job and to the community. She is engaging, thoughtful, and already has a great appreciation for what makes Mudd special. I am especially excited about her expressed interest in the quality of the student experience on campus, and cannot wait to see how the college develops under her leadership in the years to come. I am also very grateful to the board for seeking student input in this important process and for including students on the search committee." Klawe is married to Nicholas (Nick) Pippenger, a professor of computer science and mathematics, who will leave his position at Princeton to join the faculty in the HMC Department of Mathematics. They have two children: Janek, age 23, who is pursuing his Ph.D. in computer science at Princeton; and Sasha, age 20, who will be on leave from the University of New Hampshire during the spring semester 2006 to study international relations at the University of Cape Town in South Africa. Klawe's personal interests include painting, long distance running, hiking, kayaking, juggling and playing electric guitar. She describes herself as "crazy about mathematics" and enjoys playing video games. In 2005, she established the Kathleen W. Klawe Prize for Excellence in Teaching of Large Classes at the University of Alberta in the name of her mother, an economics professor there in the 1960s and 70s. She gives a painting to each person who donates a minimum of $1500 to the endowed fund. News media can access photos of Maria Klawe here: High resolution (print): Low resolution (Web):

Posted 9:26 PM 1/16/2013 : Suicidal man shot by police was veteran with PTSD
TUCSON - A suicidal man shot by police was a veteran receiving treatment for Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, according to his parents.
Dustin Wernli, 30, called 911 Tuesday night saying he wanted an officer to shoot him, according to the Tucson Police Department.
Officers talked to Wernli for about 15 minutes when he pulled a gun and an officer lethally shot him, according to TPD.
Wernli was a Navy medic who was deployed with the Marine Corps in Iraq, according to his father.
He suffered a brain injury from an explosion in 2004. He was receiving treatment from the VA hospital for PTSD, according to Wernli's father.
A veteran commits suicide every 20 minutes, according to Dan Ranieri with La Frontera Arizona.
La Frontera's mission is to solve community problems, including providing mental health services to veterans.
Ranieri has been treating veterans for years and says they struggle to adjust to civilian life.
"They're having a hard time finding homes," Ranieri said. "They're having a hard time finding jobs. They're having a hard time staying in jobs once they find them. They're having a difficult time with their relationships."
The military set a new record in 2012, with a veteran committing suicide about once a day, according to Ranieri.
"Most people either don't know where to find the help," he said, "or they think that the problems are so severe and they're so unsolvable that death is preferable, and that's the tragedy of all this."
There are sometimes so many places for assistance that it is overwhelming, according to Ranieri.
"There are so many places to go that it gets pretty confusing," he said, "and just the shear confusion of it all, it may force somebody to inaction."
Ranieri said veterans should not wait until they have suicidal thoughts before looking for help.
"If you're struggling and you need a helping hand," he said, "that's the best time. Obviously, the earlier in the process the better."
La Frontera just launched an initiative called Rally Point Arizona. In the past month, they set up a 24-hour hotline. Veterans answer the phones. Their number is 1-855-725-5948.

"Very good hotel"
Stayed one night at the hotel. Enjoyed the stay. Excellent restaurant food.Hotels.com 旅客真實的評價
"For family vocation"
It is good location of this hotel, good service, good food. But maybe next time I will come solvang, I will choose another hotel, not just this one is not good, it is just because there are lots of interesting hotel here, maybe I will choose hotel not locate in the main street, that will be more private and quiet~Hotels.com 旅客真實的評價
"One of the better hotels in Solvang"
When we first arrived at the Hadsten House, we were a little worried that we may have been fooled by the pictures posted online because it has a bit of a motel vibe to it. We first went to our spa appointment. The spa is a little small but it offers a good assortment of treatments and the facility is clean. We did the couples massage, which was done […] in a very relaxing private room and they did a great job. The lobby was decorated very well, which made it look like the hotel had been recently renovated. The person checking us in was very polite and professional and she told about the hotel, the amenities, the surrounding neighborhood and some of the events going on that weekend. Once we got into our room, it confirmed that we made the wise choice in staying here. The room was clean and had that recently renovated look, large bed, "fireplace" to make it even more romantic looking, and a great looking bathroom. After walking around the surrounding neighborhood, we could tell that we were staying at one of the better hotels in the area. The included breakfast is nice, not the greatest breakfast food, but it beats a continental breakfast any day of the week. We had dinner at their restaurant on one of the nights and the food was very good and the staff very friendly. We will definitely be staying here again the next time we are in the area and have recommended it to a few friends who were staying in the area for wine tasting. 閱讀更多Hotels.com 旅客真實的評價
"Great little hotel"
Couldn't have been more comfortable. The room was small but cozy, clean and nicely decorated. The bed was amazing. Nice (indoor) pool and outdoor spa/lounge area. The (free) breakfast was surprisingly delicious. Perfect location on the edge of downtown. It's not the Four Seasons, but you know that when you book it. Would definitely stay here again.Hotels.com 旅客真實的評價
"OK but expensive"
Good quality accommodations, but possibly overpriced.Hotels.com 旅客真實的評價

"What's not to like!"
My room was on the ground floor and it was very quiet while I stayed.Hotels.com 旅客真實的評價
We stayed one night in Hadsten House. Rooms were nice, little disappointed that fireplace was just a decoration. Hotel restaurant was amazing and staff was very helpful and nice. Breakfast was delicious. Dinner and wine list made us very happy. Only minus was front desk staff who was friendly but gave us confusing information about hotel promotions […] and this cost us a little extra money and put a little damper on our otherwise fun filled visit. Area is beautiful and I would recommend staying at least two days to get a full experience. 閱讀更多Hotels.com 旅客真實的評價

"Wedding weekend getaway"
For a motel it was a bit over priced and the room was really dark but all in all the place was clean, the bed comfortable, and the location was great if you were looking to be in Solvang. We didn't have much interaction with the staff but they seemed perfectly fine and breakfast was decent.Hotels.com 旅客真實的評價
We (my golfing buddies and I) have stayed in this area many times on our outings. This was amongst if not the best place we've found in the area, certainly for the price. Will stay there next time we're in the area.Hotels.com 旅客真實的評價
"Close to restaurants and sights"
I stayed with my Mother and daughter, it was an overnight stay prior to our destination. The Hotel is excellent, as is the service. Breakfast was complimentary and was excellent also, the grounds are clean and parking was perfect for my handicap Mother and myself, we both have difficulty walking. it was very easy, the room was directly in front of the […] parking spot. The staff is great. I would definitely recommend this hotel. 閱讀更多Hotels.com 旅客真實的評價

We are so impressed with hotel..unexpected nice n cozy room.For sure to book again next time.Hotels.com 旅客真實的評價
"Good hotel, great location"
Hotel was very nice. Only problem was with the AC, which seemed to have a mind of its own and turn off in the middle of the night. It is usually not hot up in Solvang, but it was during this trip which made sleeping a bit uncomfortable. Other than that, the rooms were clean and the hotel is right at the edge of town which is convenient for walking […] around. 閱讀更多Hotels.com 旅客真實的評價

Lovely room with very nice and large bathroom. Complimentary breakfast was really nice with hot entrees and lots of really great coffee. Staff were helpful and pleasant.Hotels.com 旅客真實的評價
"Afordable, clean, and great service!"
Our stay at the Hadsten House was a very pleasant experience. The hotel staff was friendly and helpful, the room was beautiful, clean, and very comfortable. My children loved the pool and I loved the outdoor spa and fireplaces. Breakfast was included and it was a notch above the standard continental breakfast; it included hot eggs, bacon, and oatmeal, […] as well as fresh fruit, breads, and cereal. The staff offered excellent service bringing coffee, tea, or juices. We also enjoyed dinner one night of our stay at the Bistro located on site. The food was excellent and beautifully presented. Again the staff service was prompt and friendly. I would definitely recommend the Hadsten House and our family is planning to return! 閱讀更多Hotels.com 旅客真實的評價
"ground floor patios were very nice"
convenient Solvang location, excellent complimentary breakfast, overall pleasing appearance, would recommend use to othersExpedia 旅客真實的評價
"Hadsten House /Bistro"
A pleasant setting and excellent location to downtown, more specifically the open air theater. Wish we had known about the theater/hotel package which would have saved us $50 at dinner. The Bistro is excellent. I recommend the lobster bisque and the seared scallops with risotta and white truffle sauce. We will definitely repeat this experience.Expedia 旅客真實的評價
"Great Place"
This spot was a pleasent surprise. Although an Inn and not a five star hotel or resort, we felt that the people behind the Hadsten were trying to convice you otherwise. Very spacious, clean, quite, modern and well decorated. The complimentary breakfast was outstanding and we received incredible service from start to finish. Worth every penny! Also, […] everything is within walking distance from this place. 閱讀更多Expedia 旅客真實的評價
"Attractive motel in Solvang, Ca."
The lobby is cleverly decorated. The furnishings in rooms are interesting and updated. I love the bathroom door handle and sliding door! The rooms are spacious and the pretend fireplace is really enjoyable. Even though the motel sits at the entrance of town where traffic is moving fairly fast, we did not hear noise. The motel was full of really lovely […] young people (they appeared to be on vacation or attending reunions). Everyone was surprisingly well-dressed and cheerful and polite. The staff was very friendly, especially the wait staff in the dining room during the free breakfast. The indoor pool looked inviting, even though we did not have time to swim. I liked that the motel was just a short walk to shopping, restaurants, parks, etc. Right next door is a little convenience store. It was quiet. Nice to be able to stop in and pick up some simple items we may have forgotten to pack or suddenly need. The price of our rooms was very reasonable. I would go back to Hadsten happily and any time. 閱讀更多Expedia 旅客真實的評價
"little farther from downtown solvang"
overall is a excellent hotel and nice service and spa and nice little complitary breakfeast. little farther to walk into downtown solvang is my only mild complaint then some of the other hotels in solvang. We enjoy walking around solvang in the evenings.Hotels.com 旅客真實的評價
"Good location! Close to the main town."
My husband and I had a very nice stay. The bed was very comfortable. The bathroom towels had holes in it.Expedia 旅客真實的評價
"Nothing To Get Excited About"
Ok, but over-rated and over-priced. Carpets filthy. "Fireplaces in rooms" refers to "urban fireplaces", i.e. no flame...just light. Very disappointing mattresses.Hotels.com 旅客真實的評價
"nice location right next to downtown"
the Hadsten is located at one end of the town of Solvang and is a very cozy and extremely well kept hotel. Highly recommended!Expedia 旅客真實的評價
"Hotel Stay"
Enjoyable.....Beautiful dining room. Nice rooms. Clean and comfortable. Would recommend and stay here again. A good value.Expedia 旅客真實的評價
"Great hotel!"
We have stayed at the Hadsten House more than once and we really love it. However, we were really looking forward to the wine/beer/hors d'oevres reception upon arrival and were sad to find they have discontinued that. Still, a great hotel and perfect location.Hotels.com 旅客真實的評價
"Good Location in a Lovely 'Village'"
This was out second stay at this hotel, it is ideal location for touring Santa Ynez wineries and it is only a short walk to the centre of Solvang, which is a lovely little 'danish village'. The rooms are very comfortable with lovely decor, free wifi which worked really well during our stay.Expedia 旅客真實的評價
"Nice stay in Solvang"
My family spent three nights here in early August, we really enjoyed our stay. The hotel is a remodeled old motel (as are many of the Solvang hotels), but the landscaping and room decor are quite nice and made our stay more pleasant. There is an indoor heated pool (and an outdoor hot tub) that our kids loved, and the hotel is a short walk away from […] all the downtown Solvang shops and attractions. 閱讀更多Expedia 旅客真實的評價
"Great place to stay in Solvang"
Must say I wasn't sure what to think about this place after reading some of the reviews and checking out the pictures online. But found the hotel to be really terrific and a heck of a value. Place has been nicely redone. And the breakfast spread was quite good, too. Not sure the photos of Hadsten House really do it justice. So I really was pleasantly […] surprised when I pulled up. Would like to see a bit more informed deck staff -- especially when it comes to activities that don't involve drinking wine -- but that's a small complaint. I'd recommend Hadsten House to anyone going to Solvang. 閱讀更多Hotels.com 旅客真實的評價
"Hadsten stay"
My family and I stayed one night. Our room was clean and the decor was nice. Here are the pros and cons... Pros: Comfortable bed Clean facility AMAZING breakfast included Free internet Nice TV with DVD player and cable Walking distance to all the great Solvang shops Cons: Our cable went out quite a few times We were on the first floor and could hear […] people walking above us No elevator for the 2nd floor The bathroom area only has a separating door for the toilet and shower. The sink area is open so it's a bit loud if you need to use the sink area when people are sleeping. 閱讀更多Expedia 旅客真實的評價
"Great place to stay!"
This was our first time visiting this hotel. My family and I came to celebrate my birthday. The room was clean, it had a nice atmosphere. The beds were firm but comfortable. We had a wonderful buffet breakfast with coffee and orange juice. We had excellent service in the restaurant. We will be back again sometime soon!Expedia 旅客真實的評價

That is John Wolfe junior and guess what you probably had never heard of him until last night when he won more than 40% of the vote in arkansas' democratic primary so why does -- unknown lawyer from Tennessee.
Do so doggone well out in Arkansas among Democrats.
We'll answer that because this is power play welcome back.
Welcome back Charles hurt and joining us is our friend chuck Rocha he is at let's see how do we just let me count the ways -- former senior advisor to John Edwards.
-- stalwart of the union movement in this country and he is an expert on this subject.
Because he's Texas Democrat by by extraction so -- the deal is this we know President Obama is -- -- -- and so.
Diego winning kick venom directed -- Diego win in West Virginia these are not states that are gonna fall into the democratic -- But there are a lot of voters these same.
Down market blue collar white working class voters in these states that happen to be a lot of states like Ohio Pennsylvania even Florida certainly in east Virginia.
What's the deal how does the president make his.
It's to that I think that it's it's a little bit different from West Virginia and Arkansas just as you said the Obama campaign will spend a lot of money and a lot of resources.
Through the use -- -- campaign -- -- to -- Ohio.
In Pennsylvania in Michigan.
Getting their story out to do to saw picture of the differences between the candidates I think that's the big difference not a dollar spent in Arkansas or Kentucky in the primary he's no names getting a big percentage really -- this is a big campaign going off and a lot of mobilization on the ground to at least a tutor.
Stories where they get a little stuff in Arkansas they opened up some offices and they and and and gives money to state party in an effort to try to help because they didn't wanna have -- problem did you did you know.
Is -- and this -- of course cast is somehow.
A silver lining for the Obama campaign.
That that actually Obama collected more votes in -- Romney did.
In our in Arkansas well well the problem there is -- know that what that really means is that the democratic it inside the ticket was more contested -- -- does well and and and there's there's and that certainly Charlie two to that point.
As chuck points out the Obama campaign in states like Virginia and states like Ohio and Pennsylvania and and -- -- you've heard of Bain Capital.
But I think that some folks there are going to be reminded.
That Mitt Romney -- news that the -- that Mitt Romney is a rich viewed and they -- because I'm a little bit about why Kansas rides -- horse rides horses retrieve his.
Trains them fortress.
Which is -- not a kind of sandwich I found out reading the Internet.
But senator Smith John Kerry was right but okay -- -- -- -- but so far it's not like these it's not like these voters that we're talking about here are in love with Mitt Romney.
But -- But you know it do.
I she chuck is exactly right there that do President Obama needs to go back to his 2008 -- Where he -- days.
A message tells the story about how he's gonna help working families and things like that.
The -- doesn't work or at least it never has worked and you can ask just anybody including John Edwards or Al Gore.
Do these class warfare.
This class warfare attack.
Using the Bain Capital where you you have this incredible civil war going on among Democrats.
That not only does it cause you problems on your side it.
It has never worked it just isn't gonna work.
They're -- but there's two stories that are of them that are being told me there's two philosophies of where you want to take the country and what we have to take from Mitt -- not talking about his years as the governor he's talking about in a businessman -- -- businessman being able to turn around the economy and so there's two stories.
Obama campaign -- we can go back to the bush years and have this economic frame of -- that you make a choice whether it worked or it didn't work.
But when bush left office we -- 750000.
Jobs that month and had twenty about -- sustainable job growth but he would say.
That's not good enough but we are making steps to be out that that's the -- in the debate I will happen.
We're gonna talk about Bain Capital we're gonna talk about the businessman president model.
And and that stuff in our next segment to check I wanna I wanna play with you guys edge and and imagine this scenario.
And imagine if Hillary Clinton had won the democratic nomination in 2000 -- I suspect that right now Mitt Romney be about fifteen points down in the polls.
Because she and her husband right today her husband would be campaigning in leaning Democrat Missouri.
Right now her husband would be campaigning in places like Arkansas like Tennessee like southern Ohio places that Barack Obama can't play right now.
Isn't -- a problem that Democrats chuck have moved left under Obama and given up a lot of it I mean this was the bedrock of the party white working class blue collar voters were the absolute core of the Democratic Party and now they're drifting way off to the right.
I think that it's it's different from state to state.
But I think that we've seen our country -- you've seen the -- to the west so you have less -- that -- of those older voters are now retired who moved to Arizona who moved to Florida and that's why you see the electoral -- shifting west to Colorado to New Mexico to Arizona -- so there's -- -- the -- for the Democrats in southern Virginia and there's -- -- -- based in Cincinnati Ohio -- -- -- -- campaigns for twenty years like I have I've seen that change -- you have less about what I -- -- relation both of African Americans and Latinos of working blue -- people and other senior citizens -- you put together that formula for democratic victory.
That was that was the -- actually I wrote today.
In on the power play which you can have for -- to the cost of a Twitter follow it's so easy it's so easy why would you do it SEC -- you can do that and also you can -- sound off here you can do whatever you like and I can -- you get what you pay -- you do it's absolutely worth the investment but Charlie that question for you oppose this could Bill Clinton win the democratic nomination today is the -- is the Democratic Party in a place where and I'm not saying Bill Clinton because times change and it's not -- to be a historical -- relative risk.
But could a moderate.
It's red state kind of Democrat and here we're talking about my dvd from Arkansas are Joseph Manchin from West Virginia somebody like that could a person like that when the democratic nomination.
I'm about to get myself in trouble.
But I would actually argue again going back to this I think that we we could be looking at a major shift it in Dallas this coming election.
President Obama is -- trying to take the Democratic Party.
Took place a lot even a lot of Democrats don't want -- know obviously we hear the most from.
There's the left.
A lot of the anti war left and and you know the people did that -- most enthusiastic about Obama.
These people that would've supported Hillary in 2008 then did and and did to -- it to the very end.
But I would argue that yes he could and the and I but I think that.
I would argue that Bill Clinton could win the denomination.
I mean I'm not this year -- but if it were just a blank slate is absolutely not I.
I would argue that that what we're seeing this liberalization of the Democratic Party is not.
Exactly where room.
Much of the Democratic Party wants to go look at the Bain Capital stops its -- it's a nightmare that they would I think in a lot of ways they would love to get back to the more centrist.
Okay let's you know.
And not beat up on businesses.
Beautiful and democratic nominee Joseph mansion might be be a guy like that is that a possibility inside today's democratic partner OK I didn't think that what you're talking just a lot smarter than he is Smart -- Talking -- imagine you're starting about the magic man I'm talking about a reasonably low to moderate.
From a -- a state like that and I think chuck is absolutely right.
But I think Bill Clinton you know coming from east Texas grownup in the south I remember my grandma sitting at at better -- -- Who's passed away now of talking about Bill Clinton and how when he to give a State of the Union Address in -- BP's Texas.
You know grown up in time she grew up -- she said it's like he's talking -- just me say she's a baby he's just like he's telling me she -- us get involved in politics and I would just listen to her.
As an -- us of what she thought she'd tell me a lot about what she thought what she's like.
He's just talking to me he is hard to make that connection and you gotta put Bill Clinton and a little bit but there.
They claim that did you imagine I imagine you know Bill Clinton he's gonna go out I get a lot he's good and he can deliver I've always -- I don't know not our right okay well I've.
Give us a -- back home I think -- I think that's I don't think it's just made some very insightful points here today I'm not so sure -- earlier.

The Foucault readerMichel Foucault was one of the most influential thinkers in the contemporary world, someone whose work has affected the teaching of half a dozen disciplines ranging from literary criticism to the history of criminology. But of his many books, not one offers a satisfactory introduction to the entire complex body of his work. The Foucault Reader was commissioned precisely to serve that purpose. The Reader contains selections from each area of Foucault's work as well as a wealth of previously unpublished writings, including important material written especially for this volume, the preface to the long-awaited second volume of The History of Sexuality, and interviews with Foucault himself, in the course of which he discussed his philosophy at first hand and with unprecedented candor. This philosophy comprises an astonishing intellectual enterprise: a minute and ongoing investigation of the nature of power in society. Foucault's analyses of this power as it manifests itself in society, schools, hospitals, factories, homes, families, and other forms of organized society are brought together in The Foucault Reader to create an overview of this theme and of the broad social and political vision that underlies it. |

There are two main ways to backup your Apple computer.
1. Use Time Machine to automatically backup. This is the Apple way – the easy way.
2. Manually backup your computer with some other software such as Super Duper or Carbon Copy Cloner.
Apple's way (Time Machine) is a lot simpler. The big disadvantage is that the backup is not bootable. If your computer crashes you need to insert the original DVD and restore from at the Time Machine backup. This can take hours.
The second method takes a few steps longer to set up, but your backup will be bootable. That means if you plug your backup drive in hold down Option-Command-Shift-Delete during startup you can boot straight off your backup drive. In an emergency you can plug in your backup and be running from it under a minute. You can't do this with Time Machine.
This article describes how to manually backing up using Super Duper. Carbon Copy Cloner and Super Duper are both paid apps. Super Duper has a free version which will do the job.

Recipes copied from friends and torn from magazines usually end up in a thick folder at home, where they immediately disappear into the mess. You could painstakingly arrange all the recipes by hand – or you could quickly and easily create an overview with a mind map. Starting from a central concept, in this case Recipes, you draw lines to indicate thematic relationships or subordinate concepts, such as cakes, appetizers, and soups. From these subtopics, you can then branch out again using the same principle. In this manner, mind maps can help organize thoughts, collect ideas, collate data, and aid in the planning of projects.
Drawing Board
When you are ready to create a mind map, the View Your Mind program (VYM) can help. In contrast to paper, it takes just a few mouse clicks to recolor parts of the mind map or move entire branches to a new location. Additionally, VYM outputs the drawing in different formats – from a simple PNG file, through a PDF document, to a LibreOffice presentation. The VYM website [1] has a good example of the possibilities, showing a mind map created with VYM; at its center is the program itself.
Popular distributions, such as Ubuntu and openSUSE, include VYM in their repositories. Alternatively, the developer provides the current RPM and DEB packages on SourceForge [2], which should work on any major distribution. If necessary, you can just grab the source code archive, unzip it, and install the program with qmake
, make
, and sudo make install
. Note that VYM requires a C++ compiler, the Qt development packages, and Qmake.

Why Malaysia, and Sarawak, Matter
Budget showdowns in DC, battles with government unions in the Midwest, tragedy in Japan, war in the Near East, unemployment frustratingly high and gas prices disturbingly so. There is much to worry about and debate these days. One suspects, however, that there aren't many Americans who are worried about the upcoming Sarawak elections in Malaysia. And yet, even amongst all the headlines above, they should. Why? I will try to explain.

Because food scarcity is a growing concern across the world, researchers have studies millet grain as a large agricultural contributor due to the grain's resilience to drought, water scarcity, and the ever-changing climate.
Millet grains are grown primarily in Africa and Asia because it's known to thrive in droughts, has a short growing season with high productivity, and is resistant to insects and diseases. The grains are also known for being a major source of proteins and carbohydrates. As the climate continues to rise and certain areas across the world are losing some productivity to crops, researchers have explores how millet grains can be used to combat food scarcity.
Millet grains are also becoming more popular in Europe and North America because the grains serve as an active ingredient in gluten-free and multigrain cereals, breads, and other foods. Other studies have shown that millet-rich diets can help protect against certain diseases such as cancer, diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and metabolic syndrome.

Summary and Analysis
"I Travelled Among Unknown Men," by the English poet William Wordsworth (1770-1850), is written in the simple, clear, colloquial style that Wordsworth helped champion as one of the original Romantic poets. The poets who embraced Romanticism objected to the often ornate, "artificial" style of language used by many authors of the eighteenth century. Poems by those earlier writers were often filled with allusions to classical literature, especially to gods and goddesses in whom no one actually believed and who seemed quite remote from the lives of common people. The audience for such poetry was well educated, often from the upper strata of society. Much of Wordsworth's poetry, in contrast, can easily be read and appreciated by anyone. As its titular opening line implies, "I Travelled Among Unknown Men" deals with personal experience in the real world.
Like many Romantic poems, this work features the thoughts and feelings of a particular person—a "man speaking to men," as Wordsworth himself once phrased the ideal. Even people who have not traveled abroad can easily relate to the idea that we especially appreciate our homes when we return to them after having been away. In this poem, the speaker refers to "unknown" people (1) in a way that implies people who are not only unfamiliar but who have a different culture and speak a different language. These are people, in other words, who are not only geographically distant but also culturally distinct. The fact that they live in "lands" (plural) "beyond the sea" (2) suggests that they are people from a variety of different countries. Imagine how different the impact of the second line would be if it read "In a place across the stream." The speaker wants to emphasize his contact with people of a variety of nationalities in places significantly distant from his own country.
Not until the second half of the first stanza do we realize the precise significance of the traveler's travels: They have made him appreciate his country much more fully than he had before. Traveling abroad helped him learn not only about foreign lands but also about his own psyche; he had not realized, until his travels, how much he loved his own country. The fact that he did travel shows that he is not a narrow-minded jingoist. We can assume he realized that learning about other countries might be valuable. However, the added—and apparently unexpected—benefit of...

Rated 5 out of 5 by azkenny great buy !
Over my lifetime I have purchased many fillet knives. This by far was the best for the money. I had considered a few other knives that cost 3 to 4 times more than this one did. there is no way they could have been any better. For an over sized knife this one fit the bill. If your looking for a knife for larger fish you can't go wrong and the grip is excellent also.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Jeff712007 Wow.
I usually don't do reviews, but this thing deserves comment. The picture doesn't do this knife justice, it 's enormous. And high quality. Makes using 9" standard fillet knife ridiculous. A must have for LARGE fish, especially ones with tough skin.

Irish leaving like they left before -- sad exodus signals end of Celtic Tiger

Dublin: Up to 6,000 Irish lined up in mixed weather conditions this weekend to seek out jobs abroad.
The long lines outside the Royal Dublin Society building in Ballsbridge for a jobs abroad fair reminded me somewhat of the Great Depression and brought home the human impact of the Irish financial crisis.
Every media outlet in Ireland drones on and on about the banking crisis but you never get to see the trickle down effects until you stand with the people lining up to leave Ireland once again.
It is estimated up to 200,000 could leave during this current recession.
The age average at the fair skewed surprisingly older. I would have expected young men and women but there were many in their thirties and forties.
They were underwater financially because their only investment, their house, was now worth less than the mortgage they were paying on it.
For them the reality was incredibly harsh. Many were taking young children with them, starting a new life but never wanting to abandon the old.
I couldn't help but wonder what the $65 billion the Irish government will sink into saving their banking system would have done for the Irish like those leaving, if it had been spent on them and infrastructure and creating jobs.
I often wonder the same when I look at the cost of the Iraq war and the Afghanistan theater.
What would the U.S look like today if we weren't spending just billions on an increasingly futile exercise?
The jobs at the Irish fair on offer were mostly in Canada and Australia, two countries that avoided the excesses of the downturn by having basic banking safeguards in place.
How much better would our world be if the US, and Ireland and the other reckless splurgers had used such restraint themselves?
The fair was a sad mirror image of an event my newspaper Irish Voice co-hosted in Manhattan about six years ago.
Back then, in conjunction with the Irish jobs agency FAS, we hosted an Irish jobs fair for Americans who were anxious to work in Ireland.
It was a time when the good times were still rolling, when property values were in the stratosphere and all seemed well with the Celtic Tiger.
Jobs were plentiful in Ireland and even the influx of European workers to Ireland were not enough to keep the labor rolls filled.
The Americans came in their thousands to the job fair, ready willing and anxious to work in Ireland, to embark on the adventure of a lifetime.
It was an extraordinary feeling, seeing history placed on its head and the reverse of what had happened for generations suddenly come through.
It all came crashing down of course and the grim tide of the new economic reality came washing over Ireland again.
It will be a cold day in hell I think when another Irish jobs fair is held in America.
More's the pity though. It was an amazing turnabout while it lasted.

Dennis Q. It is sad but true. And when they come here,it is the same attitude. many of them despise Irish-Americans, and as I said they have open contempt for the music, language,and football/hurling. As so many have said to me over the years who cares about that "oul'd sh@#**e! And yet many congregate in neighborhoods that are considered Irish-American.They can ape and mimic English or American popular culture, yet they rage against Irish- Americans many who genuinely embrace Irish culture, and have done much to keep it alive. They don't want it, yet we cannot have it either. Sorry to be so bitter, but the last crowd who came out in the 80's and early 90's, left a bitter taste with many Irish-Americans. Not to mention of course if were not for the herculean efforts made by the Irish-American community and political representatives that crowd would not have gotten their Green Cards making them legal.

I've heard that before, ancavker. In fact I've heard the young Irish who congregate at the weekend dances at San Francisco's Irish Cultural Center called "Eurotrash."
I think of Eurotrash as people with money and no values. Perhaps the new Eurotrash have neither.

The Irish in Ireland are not that Irish any more, and in fact time and time again I have seen open hostility and attempt to anything Irish, the music, language, football/hurling. The Irish are much more interested in embracing what passes for culture in England or America.

One thing we know now that we didn't know before . . . you don't need to be physically present in Ireland to stay Irish. Communications being what they are today, you're just as Irish in Timbuktu as if you'd stayed in Gort na Móna.
Incidentally, one reason the right wing government of Israel goes unchecked is that "two passport" Jews aren't committed to staying there. Netanyahu seems bent on provoking a war with one Arab group or another and nobody stops him, because if war comes they're headed back where they came from.
I like the Wolfe Tones' song comparing the journey of today's emigrés to the flight of the Earls - those big airplanes go both ways. Of course, when the Yanks get back to Gort na Móna, they'll say, "This is a grand place to visit, but I'm glad we don't live here anymore."

If the Irish government at home is content too see its people immigrate as economic chattel on the world market than its time for the Irish abroad to become creative and start forming an organization similar to the Zionist organization that created the state of Israel. An organization to promote immigration back to Ireland by Irish people and the buying of land to be held in common for all the people as well as the establishment of factories and industries in the country. Not relying on foreign non-Irish investment which will only leave the country when there is no profits. Right now Ireland is the Mexico of Europe without a surplus population. It is a vassel divided state unable to hold its population when times get rough. Immigration has become a knee jerk reaction to hard times for the Irish. Of what use are Irish organizations in the United States and elsewhere if they don't take a serious and active interest in this constant bleeding of a nations people through immigration.

They have had every advantage and opportunity now that my Irish born parents generation did not have.Plus alot of Irish-Americans are ambivalent about the current economic situation over there. That comes from years of being abused and ridiculed by the so called educated new, better Irish. You know what they say about payback.

Why do the Irish have to flee because there is a downturn in their economy? Spain and Greece are also in dire economic straits, are their people fleeing as well?
With all due respect lets not blame just the irish government. Many irish people knowlingy and eagerly participated in the reckless spending. I saw first so many Irish who would run over to New York for a long weekend shopping trip, and ship their massive purchases back in steamer trunks.Perhaps this downturn will make the Irish in Ireland a little more humble,and perhaps they will be a little nicer to the Irish- Americans when we come to visit.

There is one big difference now in Ireland that nobody seems to be noticing . I refer to the commuting Paddy . Ths is the (mainly professional) person who spends his weekends at home in Ireland and his weekdays abroad somewhere cold in northern Europe . Go to any of the Irish airports on Monday morning and see the crush of commuters on their way out .This is not immigration, yet these thousands are not appearing on any register in Ireland . But they are bringing the bucks home every week. This was unthinkable twenty (or even ten ) years ago .
and we to thank the likes of Ryanair (horror!)and other budget airlines for that.

Put someone in control who takes things as seriously as he/she should. No offense to Brian Cowen, but drinking and hanging out with young folks doesn't look that good. Serious times need serious people. Cowen needs to turn over a new leaf. Having just returned from Ireland after 2 weeks I can assure you it is on everyone's mind over there. Boy, am I proud of my mother's place of birth. What a friendly and kind bunch. It hits you as soon as you reach JFK and you start speaking to all these lovely people. Yes, it is GRAND.

Kate this is a small island and our Irish culture has been eroded enough by hundreds of years of British rule.I'd have no problem if the Irish were refused into any country,maybe if the emigration safety valve wasn't there the government would have to get there act together.But don't give me this lovey dovey melting pot and we will all live in peace and harmony with all the peoples of the earth.That's a dream,wishful thinking,it never works out,like holds to like simply as that.
This is Ireland and we have to preserve our rich heritage and language from outside influence as best we can.I like Irish people living next to me,not some stone faced polish family or some Nigerian scam artist,who have no interest in anything Irish.I don't care what other countries do.
This is Ireland and it's for the Irish and also those with Irish roots who were forced to leave because of a west brit government who didn't care about them.Any Irish/American is quite welcome to come back to Ireland if they want too,As far as i'm concerned they are my brother's and sisters overseas.

The most destructive wildfire in Colorado history leveled hundreds of homes but didn't touch a cherished tradition in Pike National Forest near Colorado Springs -- cutting live Christmas trees.
The U.S. Forest Service says last summer's Waldo Canyon Fire didn't touch the area of the forest where generations have gone to cut live Christmas trees. Each year, about 5,000 people buy $10 permits to cut a tree.
Christmas tree seekers can choose from lodgepole, limber and ponderosa pine as well as Engelmann spruce and Douglas fir. Chain saws are not allowed.
Permits can be obtained from Nov. 26 to Dec. 12. Families are limited to five trees.
The Waldo Canyon Fire erupted June 23 and went on to kill two people and damage or destroy 359 homes.
