The takers outvoted the makers. Now it's time to see the downfall begin.
The wealthy accumulated more wealth during the Bush and Obama years, due to the Bush tax-cuts that were overly generous to those wealthy people.
So now the defenders of the wealthy are calling the people who paid taxes to subsidize those generous tax-cuts and loopholes "takers".
It is the wealthy people and the poor who have been the takers, and the wealthy have not produced jobs, and extending the tax cuts for the wealthy will still not produce jobs!
So why don't you cut the extreme right wing sound bites, lies and propaganda, and just keep sitting in front of your TV watching Fox Noise or the radio listening to Rush the fat-boy and blowhard?
It's time for the party of "entitlements for the wealthy", and the party of "entitlements for those who didn't pay into them", to work out some compromises!
They must stop all levels of government from giving benefits or entitlements of any kind to illegal immigrants!!
While they're at it, they better find a way to pay back the 2.7 TRILLION DOLLARS that the federal government took from the Social Security Trust Fund, which is the real reason why it is short on the funds to pay out benefits!!!
That money was paid by wage earners and their employers to help in our retirement years, and should have been HANDS OFF, not used as a piggy bank to be squandered by the Feds, and IT MUST BE PAID BACK!!!!

Peter Weightman
Peter belongs to: The Coble and Keelboat Society
Peter was brought up in Newcastle. His mother came from Seahouses and the family would holiday there. Peter's father made him a rowing boat when he was 11 and he spent his time in the harbour with his friends.
Peter was interviewed by Carl Greenwood on 16 February 2006. The interview took place at Ouseburn Heritage Centre and lasted 14 minutes and 58 seconds.
The Coble and Keelboat Society
"The Coble and Keelboat Society- that was quite useful"
The Coble and Keelboat Society- that was quite useful. They came up to Seahouses a few years ago for a sea shanty festival and I saw the stall on the pier and I met Edgar Redman, their secretary, and that was very useful because he was able to put me in touch with other people with an interest in the boats and I thought nobody was, really. And we had a meeting of the society, an annual general meeting, down the coast at Hartlepool and as a result of that we found out all the ones in the Tyneside area and up in Northumberland and started to have monthly meetings and thats been tremendously valuable because we tell each other where boats are, who might want to sell one, how to help restore a boat, exchange photographs, information about repairing them, so its been very useful and we get together every month and its good just to get together in a pub and have a drinks and have a good chatter, so thats encouraged an interest in the boats enormously in the last, last couple of years.

Teenager shot in Malden parking lot
MALDEN, Mass. (WHDH) -- A teenager on a bicycle was shot near a Malden restaurant on Monday.
A 17 year old is being charged with attempted murder after shooting another 17 year old in a Malden parking lot Monday morning.
"I know it was a handgun. I did see him pull it out of his jacket and he held it out and just fired away," said John Stelmach, who witnessed the shooting.
"I was across the street and I heard five gun shots. Boom, boom, boom, boom . I just seen someone in a hooded sweatshirt," said Sue Hyde.
Witnesses near the parking lot of a Chinese food restaurant in Malden said the teenager on the bike took off after he was shot in the back. The shooter also fled.
"After he took three or four shots the kid just walked away -- started walking down the street like nothing happened," said Stelmach.
"The kid was walking down the street and then he started trotting like it was nothing," said Hyde.
Later in the morning, police armed with rifles searched for the suspect. They surrounded a nearby home.
"I didn't even know what was going on. So I looked out the window and asked the cop what was going on," said a neighbor.
Neighbors said the man who was finally led out and put under arrest doesn't live at the home. Police said the shooting victim was found a few blocks from where he was shot.
"These kids think life is a video game. They take life easy," said one woman.
Investigators aren't saying what motivated the shooting, but they said the suspect and victim know each other.

Aerosmith locked into Guitar Hero exclusivity
According to this Newsweek post, Guitar Hero Aerosmith means the band are tied into the franchise and won't be doing any Rock Band DLC any time soon. From the site:
"It's an exclusive deal for this game," Aerosmith publicist Marcee Rondon told Harris. We confirmed this with Tim Riley, Activision's vice president of music affairs, who told us through Activision PR that "I can say that we do have the band exclusively, and their catalogue should be exclusive to us beyond the one or two tracks they had licensed out to Rock Band before we made our deal."
More through the link.

Aerosmith: "There are some battles you can't fight"
Aerosmith's Steve Tyler has said the reason he got involved with Activision for the recently announced Guitar Hero: Aerosmith is that he realised there was no point being stuck in the past with anal attention to music as art: technology was the way forward.
"There are some battles you can't fight," he said. "You would like to keep it traditional and make it just deep, deep tracks from albums or B-sides. But technology is going so fast right now rather than be left behind, you are going with the flow.
"It's a different day and age. Twenty-five years ago we would never have let one of our songs (Dream On) be one of those used in selling cars (in a 2004 Buick commercial). But now, like with I Don't Want to Miss A Thing (in 1998′s blockbuster film Armageddon), it's placement.
"When I heard about Activision and all this. I thought whatever I can do for this to make it as good as it can be — because my son plays it — I thought I should do it."
So basically, Steve, you sold out. Hope those extra millions help ease the pain of knowing you didn't "keep it real".

Pine martens are the second rarest carnivore in the UK, with a stronghold in Scotland and isolated populations in pockets of England and Wales.
The Barbastelle bat is a predominantly tree-dwelling species associated with woodland, with a broadly southern distribution in Britain.
The dormouse has declined significantly during the last century and is now largely restricted to southern Britain with small numbers in the north.
Bechstein's bat is a tree-dwelling species associated with old growth woodland. Its core range appears to be centred on southern England.
Polecats are recovering following a dramatic decline during the last century and are now recolonising many areas of lowland Britain.
Greater and lesser horseshoe bats are predominantly found in southern Britain and Ireland, where they form maternity roosts in old stone buildings.
Otter populations declined significantly during the last century but are now recovering and are once again present in every county in England.
The native red squirrel is rare in England and Wales and has been replaced by the introduced grey squirrel in much of its range.
Stoats and weasels are widespread and thought to be relatively common across Britain, but are under-studied.
Water vole populations declined by over 90% during the 20th century but are beginning to recover.
"We are a charity working hard to safeguard the future of mammals in Britain and Ireland.
For more than 30 years we have made major contributions to the conservation of the otter, dormouse, water vole, polecat, pine marten and bat species - especially the greater and lesser horseshoe bats.
Today, we specialise in focused, long-term solutions for the conservation of rare or 'difficult to track' mammals, through conservation-led research and practical field applications.
Our resources pages have everything from short introductory leaflets to major scientific papers and reports. I do hope that this website provides you with all your information needs."
If you think you have seen a pine marten in England or Wales, please phone us now on 01531 636441 or complete our report form
If you have seen a polecat or feral ferret anywhere in mainland Britain, please send us the record to contribute to our survey.

Super Bowl 2013 Lights Go Out: Why Did Superdome Lose Power?
The Lights Went Out at the 2013 Super Bowl. What Happened? We Don't Know But Some People Made Jokes About It
As you noticed, the lights went out at the Superdome during Super Bowl 2013. The CBS broadcast was affected as were lights in the stadium.
Apparently half the power in the stadium was out.
What exactly happened?
Bloomberg reported: "NFL officials say "power surge" knocked out power at New Orleans Superdome during third quarter of Super Bowl."
Reuters notes that the NFL video description said "Blown circuit" to blame for power outage in second half of the Super Bowl.
CBS's Steve Tasker reporter that the blackout was caused by an outside power feed that suddenly went dead.
Later in the night, AP reported that "Superdome power outage occurred when sensing equipment detected an "abnormality."
Some have other theories, however. Some joked that Beyonce blew out the power in the stadium.
One TSN producer joked "Finally some good news for the 49ers."
Drew Franklin joked: "This is exactly how my trip to New Orleans went. It was all smooth for a couple hours and then the blackout happened."
Steve Tasker of CBS said the delay would be more than 20-30 minutes.
Here is video of the blackout

Jen Brecheen and I, along with SVBC members Jim Manitakos and Rob Robinson, met with Stanford Athletic Department staff to review the plans for our annual bike parking at the Stanford football games. SVBC has been a fixture at the Stanford games for many years, going back to the 1990's. Longtime volunteer Jim is leading the bike parking again this year, with assistance from seasoned volunteer Rob, and our many volunteers.
The first game is August 31 against San Jose. Consider volunteering at this or subsequent games. Volunteers get a chance to see part of the game, a free lunch, and are entered in drawings for prizes. And, you are helping to promote bike culture. To volunteer, email Jim at email@example.com. See the full schedule at http://bikesiliconvalley.org/2012/07/volunteer-for-stanford-footbal-home...
There will be at least three bike corrals, all of which are manned by SVBC volunteers A couple of pictures to get you in the mood: The bike racks are at the corral just outside Gate 6. Fencing will be added before the season starts. Another corral is on MacDonald Drive, near Gate 2. Racks and fencing will appear in the next couple of weeks.
Stanford Football Bicycle Parking
Stanford Football team looks to have another winning season, ranked 18th in national pre-season polls. Based on strong season ticket sales, the stands will be packed and so will the parking lots. The easiest way to avoid the gridlock is to bicycle to the game, and SVBC's free guarded bike corrals eliminates the threat of theft or or vandalism. Join the 1,000s who bike to the game and use the SVBC run bike corrals.

Giving thanks ... to a remarkable dad
NORWAY — You know you got it right when your grown children say "thank you."
Chris Farrar got it right.
Amanda and Jordan Farrar came to the Advertiser Democrat with a simple request ... to pay tribute to their dad. Farrar, owner of Ari's Pizza, is celebrating his 25th anniversary in business here in Norway.
Timing is everything and Ari's turns 25 this week and, as we all sit down to give thanks for the good things in our lives, Amanda and Jordan want to give thanks to their dad.
Amanda, too, celebrated her 25th birthday this year. Which brings us to the beginning.
Twenty-five years ago, a 19-year-old kid with a baby on the way buys a pizza business. He has a family now and needs to provide a good life for them.
Buying a new business isn't easy, less so when you are only 19. However, Farrar put his heart and soul into making it a success.
Long hours were required to succeed. And those hours came at great personal sacrifice ... less time with family.
Farrar bought the business in November of 1987. He began working roughly 100 hours a week to support a wife and baby and, then, a second soon on the way.
According to his kids, he "undoubtedly could feel the weight of the world on his shoulders, choosing to almost entirely run the restaurant by himself riding on the philosophy 'I can do it faster and better on my own than I could with help that would just be getting in my way.'"
Jordan, 21, is currently a business student at Eastern Maine Community College. He wrote a paper for one of his classes last year, choosing his father as his focus. Not only is Jordan's business acumen on target, but so is his understanding of what his dad had to do to make Ari's a success.
"Nearly one quarter of all small businesses fail within the first year. ... people believe that owning a small business means you get to choose your own hours and choose who works for you, but those who think that, will often fall into the 25 percent failure [rate]. Growing up in a restaurant has shown me first-hand that you are at the mercy of both your employees as well as your customers."
"... persistence, self motivation, the drive to succeed, patience, and arguably most important, the ability to deal with [difficult] customers ...," writes Jordan, describing the skills an entrepreneur needs.
Jordan notes that Farrar's childhood well-prepared him for the grueling task of running his own business. "... [his] chores consisted of splitting and stacking fire wood, cleaning out pig, horse and chicken stalls and many other things that are necessary to keep a farm running properly. It is most likely that, although he often complains about it, it is a large reason why he is the hardworking, successful man he is today."
"The hard work of maintaining a farm, the ability to do things that need to be done because they need to be done and not just because he wanted to do them, the pride to do things yourself and not need others' help, are all necessary when running a small business."
Farrar did not go into the business a total rookie, according to Jordan. Having worked at the South Paris House of Pizza for a few years, he had a good idea of what was involved. Or so he thought.
"Watching and possibly even slightly idolizing a man by the name of Sparrous (from whom he later bought Ari's) he saw Sparrous come and go as he pleased while driving a Mercedes and wearing new fancy clothes.
"[This] may have put [Farrar] under the false impression that he could do the very same owning his own business. As the years progressed [Farrar] slowly started to put together the pieces to the puzzle. In fact, Sparrous' parents were the ones working a large majority of the time.
"Luckily [Farrar's] childhood equipped him with the stubborn pride to push through the hard times in hope of creating a business that could support his family financially ... ."
With only a high school diploma, a few years of experience and sheer determination, Farrar was able to "turn an old run-down grocery store into what is now, arguably, the most popular restaurant in Oxford Hills," said Jordan.
According to Jordan and Amanda, Farrar says his goal has always been "to create a business that will benefit my family for years to come."
"It took a lot of hard work, motivation and persistence to push through the hard times to get to the good ones," Farrar told his son. "Be prepared to work a good part of your life away, be prepared to miss things such as your children's sports games and family get-togethers. Make sure you really love what you're doing because if you don't, you won't last long."
"When we were younger he didn't get to be around," said Amanda, "and it always bothered him."
"But we had everything," she continued, "and we learned about hard work ... that things were not always easy ... that sometimes you had to tough it out. Since I had a child," she said, "I have a lot of understanding about what he has taught us."
"I think he felt guilty that other parents were home on the weekends ... but when employees call in sick and stuff ... and he feels the pull to make everything right for his customers ... ."
"He is probably more hard on himself about that, than anyone else [is]," said Jordan.
But, Amanda noted, "he was our coach when we were kids, he coached high school freshman basketball, helped with summer camp, the JV team ... ."
"Not only is he my father," said Jordan, "but he is also the successful business man and I am currently in school to try to become one [too]."
"I may not have shown it or believed it at times," said Jordan, "but I am truly thankful to have a father who has helped sponsor and coach numerous youth sports teams even now, although both my sister and I are too old to take part in these teams. And I believe his love for both sports and the community will keep him motivated to help the youth sports programs of Oxford Hills for years to come."
In addition to this, Farrar also prepares large food orders for the Norway National Guard base on a monthly basis.
"Although sometimes he may act stressed about doing this," notes Jordan, "I can tell he truly loves doing it because it gives him a chance to not only prepare foods that he does not usually cook at Ari's, but also because he understands how much the men and woman preparing to protect our country enjoy having a great meal in between sessions of grueling physical and emotional training."
Farrar gives back to the community in many ways, said his kids, never saying "no" to donation requests.
Faced with his first true calamity when a fire in the rooming house next door in 2011 threatened to burn down Ari's, Farrar quietly repaired the damage, and went a step further buying the land where the rooming house was.
He made sure he restored and repaired with the history of the building in mind, earning a certificate of gratitude from Norway Downtown for fixing up the building and keeping it historic.
He has persevered through economic downturns and survived through self-sacrifice and grueling hours of hard work.
A quiet and humble man, Farrar will be embarrassed to see this story, according to both Amanda and Jordan.
"But," they continue, "he is a hardworking, loving and great person whose sole motivation was to provide a better childhood and life than he himself had."
"It makes me so truly proud," said Jordan, "to have a father that almost anyone I run into in Oxford Hills has something good to say about him. I honestly just hope in the future I have kids that are as proud of me and my accomplishments as both my sister and I are of him."
And what does Farrar's three-year-old grandson, Keegan, have to say about him?
"Grandpa makes dough."

The last I heard, Michigan did not have a legal definition of "brandish." Does one "brandish" by merely displaying the weapon, let us say by opening one's jacket? Or does one necessarily draw it and wave it about? Can one one legally and joyfully wave about a new aquisition? What degree of threat, if any, is required?
Sen. Jones might consider an exception for self-defense situations in which the conditions of ability, opportunity, and Jeopardy/intent have been met and the display of a weapon or replaca is intended to preclue the need to pull the trigger.
We have legal open carry in this state. This is a non-starter and the guy should remove the R and replace it with a D.

Teatro Tapia
Something of a city emblem, the Teatro Tapia on the south side of Plaza Colón is an intimate neoclassical theater designed in the Italian style with three-tiered boxes and an elegantly decorated lobby.
Something of a city emblem, the Teatro Tapia on the south side of Plaza Colón is an intimate neoclassical theater designed in the Italian style with three-tiered boxes and an elegantly decorated lobby.
Shirtless dudes knock back beers at the bar, overdriven reggaetón blasts out of the speakers on the sidewalk, and the pool table becomes a psychological battleground; the Shamar is that kind of place – laid-back, cool and friendly on its own terms.
Here they are, the beautiful people, perched on zebra-striped stools or lounging on strategically positioned sofas, martinis in hand. The buffed body-builders, the fashionistas, the 20-something wannabe actresses corseted into tight black dresses.
Wilfrido 'Fido' Aponte became something of a local legend for his potent sangria – a blend of Bacardi 151 and extraordinarily sweet tropical fruit juice. The drink grew such a cultish following that, according to boozy locals, Bacardi offered a king's ransom for the recipe, which Fido refused.
Wall-to-wall suntans, svelte girls in bikini tops, bare-chested blokes nursing cold beers, and syncopated reggae music drifting out beneath the sun-dappled palm trees; the Calypso is everything you'd expect a beachside surfers' bar to be – and perhaps a little more.
If Hunter S Thompson were still alive and living in Puerto Rico, this is where you'd probably find him. Cool, crusty and unashamedly bohemian, the walls of this cavernous drinking joint are covered in graffiti, while the low-key lighting will have you groping in your pockets for spare change to light up the suitably retro jukebox.
If you came to Puerto Rico in search of authentic salsa music, the legend still lives on at the Nuyorican Café. San Juan's hottest nightspot – stuffed into an alley off Fortaleza, opposite a nameless drinking hole – is a congenial hub of live Latino sounds and hip-gyrating locals that easily emulates its famous New York namesake.
The patio bar of the Beside the Pointe guesthouse overlooks some of the best sand in Rincón. But the scene on the waves is only a slice of the quality atmosphere, which is completed by great burgers, and a young and vivacious local crowd who drink a little too much and dance a little too close.
Yes beer fans, life does exist beyond Medalla. The only microbrewery on the island, Old Harbor concocts a handful of excellent varieties, including a Coquí lager, the Kofresí stout, a rotating seasonal variety and a 9% double bock brewed for Christmas. Dine on upscale pub fare amid the gleaming copper kettles, or round up a few friends to drain a 64-ounce beer tower.
This place has been a juggernaut on the Mayagüez party scene since the mid-'80s, and has adapted well with its reliable charms: supercheap drink specials, ear-splitting music and events aimed at college kids looking to blow off some steam. The dance club above El Garabato, Red Baron often has a DJ spinning reggaetón, rap, hip-hop and Spanish rock.
A swinging club inside the El San Juan Hotel, Brava frequently get breathless reviews from celeb spotters and all-night dance fanatics. The two-level interior is small, and the music a mix of dance, reggaetón and salsa. The atmosphere's electric and the people- watching possibilities in the lobby beforehand strangely voyeuristic.
The soon-to-be-renamed lounges situated in Isla Verde's Water & Beach Club are popularly considered to be two of San Juan's most esteemed watering holes, where San Juan's well-heeled and the well-endowed come to swap email addresses.
Slink past the 'wanted dead or alive' roster of patrons with delinquent bar tabs and order a whipped-cream-topped bushwacker or a piña colada blushing sherbert pink with grenadine.

Asking questions that lead to a dead end
By Edward T. Creagan, M.D.
5 comments posted
A colleague recently lost a child, and this tragic event reminded me of the profound sadness in the comments posted here by others who've suffered the loss of a loved one.
Need more help? |
If the stress in your life is more than you can cope with, get help right away.
The death of a child is devastating and incomprehensible. In addressing the congregation during this difficult time, a beloved pastor said, "If we continue to ask 'why' and 'what if' and to look for logical explanations, we will wind up at a dead end." Going down that road keeps you from finding a new normal and acknowledging that life goes on even though it will never be the same.
Connecting with others who are also struggling with the loss of a loved one can be a profound source of comfort, since only fellow travelers can truly understand the pain and anguish. Reach out and learn from them. No one can do this alone.

Jaelynn, who was once a Chinese orphan, will soon be the newest member of the Altman family. Teresa and David Altman are currently in Beijing awaiting the final approval steps to adopt 5-year-old Jaelynn and bring her back to their home in Highlands County.
click any photo to view this story's photo gallery published: Friday, November 16, 2012 A sister for Christmas By SAMANTHA GHOLAR SEBRING - It will certainly be a Christmas to remember for the Altman family this year when parents Teresa and David return to Florida from a whole world away. The family of five will be getting a little bigger. After a lengthy waiting game, the Altmans have started their journey to bring their new daughter, Jaelynn, home since being approved for the adoption of the young Chinese orphan. The Altman family's story begins a year ago when oldest daughter Katie, 19, traveled to China on a short-term mission trip with the Show Hope organization. Katie arrived in China in June 2011. For the next week and a half, Katie met a number of interesting and special needs orphans who all were unique, but one in particular caught her full attention. "I spent 10 days at the orphanage and I met Jaelynn," Katie said. Katie was almost instantly drawn to the now 5-year-old and quickly learned of her ailments. Though Jaelynn suffers from spina bifida and bilateral club feet, her personality and intelligence shined through bright as ever. After Katie's return and the many stories of young Jaelynn, Katie's hope for a family for the young girl grew immensely. "I wanted to find her a family and I prayed for her to find one. I didn't really think right away about adoption but after a while I said to my parents 'Well, why don't we just adopt her?'," Katie said. While the decision to adopt Jaelynn was easy, the actual process was everything but. "They thought about it and prayed about it for a while. My parents made the phone call to China in September," Katie said. Following the initial contact with the CCAI (Chinese Children Adoption International), the Altmans were somewhat discouraged. "We were totally overwhelmed with the costs of everything. We learned it would take about $26,000 to do this adoption," Katie said. "I knew it would take a miracle to bring Jaelynn to our home," Teresa said. The family continued to pray for God's will to be done and for Jaelynn to find a home. Eventually, Teresa and the Altmans felt that they were the family for Jaelynn and began making efforts to work towards her adoption. The Altmans first applied for a grant through the Show Hope organization. They continued to raise money through fundraisers in the meantime, all while keeping the hope that their miracle would happen. "It's a long process," Katie said. "You normally have to wait to be matched with a kid. They sort of see what type of family you are and what child would fit best with you according to their needs. But we went in already knowing what child we wanted so the process was a little different." Several months later, after much hard work and a lot of help, the Altmans had raised the funds it takes to complete the adoption. The funds would cover a number of things, including transportation to and from China, passports, and administrative purposes. "One of the big things that took up a big part of the cost was the fingerprinting. For an international adoption, everyone in the family 18 and older have to be fingerprinted for security reasons ... that part alone cost a few thousand dollars," Katie explained. By March of this year, the family was taking the next steps in the adoption process. The initial adoption plan had revealed that Jaelynn would be adopted by late June, however there was a brief hold up in the process that cost the Altmans several more months of waiting. As the family waited for China to clear things on its end, the Altmans became more and more excited about adding another person to their loving family. "Abby was really excited ... she's really looking forward to having someone closer to her age to play with," Katie said. Katie, the eldest of the Altman children, has seen the excitement of her 17-year-old brother Matt and 10-year-old Abby. Each of the kids are anxious to met their new sister. "We are all really excited," Katie said. Wednesday morning, David and Teresa were anxiously awaiting the departure of the flight to Beijing when they spoke briefly about the next two weeks. "Once we get there we have to wait a day or so. We will get Jaelynn on Sunday, Florida time; Monday, China time. We have to stay a couple weeks in Beijing; we will be back on Dec. 1," Teresa said. The biggest part of the wait is the passport for Jaelynn as an American citizen, which takes two weeks to process. David and Teresa will also have a consulate appointment, which is similar to a court appearance that will officially classify the Altmans as Jaelynn's parents. Upon their return to the United States, Jaelynn will be showered with love from all of her siblings and other family members. The Altman parents will attend special training courses that will help them deal with the transition as well as better prepare them as adoptive parents. The family plans to teach English to Jaelynn, though she already speaks the language a little. "We've been told to be careful what we say," Katie said with a laugh. "She may not speak it (English) that well, but she can definitely understand it." As for the upcoming holiday season, the Altmans plan to downscale their normal routines and traditions to ensure that Jaelynn is comfortable and secure during her first weeks with the family. "She has a play room and everything ready and we are all excited. We are probably going to be having a lot smaller Christmas than normal this year. We don't want to overwhelm her," Katie said.

Thompson loving Scottish's professional approach
2:00pm Friday 6th September 2013 in London Scottish
By Andy Weston
If in-form London Scottish full back Jim Thompson improves on his efforts for London Scottish last season, then the exiles will not be too far off a top four Championship finish.
The 28-year-old scored two of his side's 13 tries in the 81-12 romp past National One Esher at the weekend as director of rugby Simon Amor's men closed pre-season preparations on a high.
The campaign kicks-off at Saracens' Allianz Park home, where Amor's men take on league new boys Ealing Trailfinders next Saturday as part of the One Big Rugby Weekend.
Former Scotland A star Thompson appeared in all 22 of Scottish's Championship matches in an impressive first season at the Athletic Ground that also saw him score three tries.
The ex-Edinburgh star is used to rising to the big occasion having helped his former club to the Heineken Cup semi-finals in 2012.
And he revealed the squad has risen to the challenge of competing at the top end of the table, having looked like relegation fodder in the early part of last term.
"We are in good shape and looking forward to next week now," he said.
"Pre-season has been really positive.
"It has been a real step up from last summer and the boys are looking fit and strong.
"I want to improve on last year, score more tries and do well for the team.
"The club has come on a lot since I first joined and gets more professional by the day.
"I have really enjoyed my year here. The squad is stronger compared with last year with a lot of new guys signed.
"They have settled in well and hopefully we will have a great season."

BOLOGNA, Italy, Oct. 29, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Damiani Publishers has announced that Madonna NYC83, the new book by Richard Corman that captures Madonna's extraordinary early years, is set to be released worldwide. The stunning photographic book will be available in major bookstores and retail outlets as well as online at www.amazon.com and www.damianieditore.com.
The 96-page book captures New York City in the early 1980s, a time of prolific interactions among the worlds of music, fashion and art. This economically fragile period gave rise to an edgy restlessness in the city, spawning adventurous new styles and music from up-and-coming artists. Madonna represented this sensibility like no-one else. As this book makes clear, from the start she was determined to define a look for herself, and to carve out a space in the public imagination.
"As a young photographer in 1983, I had the opportunity to capture a series of images with Madonna as she was on the verge of releasing her debut album," said Richard Corman. "The rebellious energy of the East Village was the backdrop to showcase Madonna's style, spontaneity and pioneering attitude. She consistently conveyed an attitude of fearlessness and fierce determination."
In conjunction with the U.S. book launch, Milk Gallery in New York City is hosting a special exhibition featuring images from Madonna NYC83. The exhibition is free and open to the public from Nov. 15 – Dec. 15. For information, visit www.themilkgallery.com.
Madonna NYC83 will retail for ($49.95 – £34). Limited edition books with a special signed print by Richard Corman are also available on www.damianieditore.com.
Richard Corman
As a portrait photographer, Richard Corman has worked with subjects ranging from Nobel Peace Prize recipients (Nelson Mandela, Elie Wiesel) to actors (Robert De Niro, Meryl Streep), athletes (Michael Jordan, Muhammad Ali) and musicians (Sting, Whitney Houston). Humbling experiences with non-profit organizations are reflected in Corman's work. Most notable is heart-felt work with the Special Olympics over the last 20 years. A native New Yorker, Corman studied at Hunter College, later spending two years apprenticing with Richard Avedon.
