CWA Marks Roe v. Wade and Most Pro-Abortion President in History
Nance: "How ironic that at the time of two high-profile milestones for abortion advocates -- Roe v. Wade's 40th Anniversary and President Obama's 2nd Inauguration -- the nation's largest abortion provider, Planned Parenthood, acknowledges that the whole pro-choice movement has failed, to the point they refuse to use the word 'pro-choice' any longer."
Washington D.C. -- As we mark the second inauguration of the most pro-abortion president in U.S. History, Concerned Women for America (CWA) President and CEO Penny Nance comments on recent abortion milestones including:
- President Obama is sworn in as the most pro-abortion president in U.S. history
- The nation's largest abortion provider, Planned Parenthood, acknowledges pro-choice language is not working and launches more "nuanced" rhetoric.
- The U.S. recognizes the 40th Anniversary of the ill-advised abortion legislation, Roe v. Wade
Statement from Penny Young Nance, President and Chief Executive Officer of Concerned Women for America:
"How ironic that at the time of two high-profile milestones for abortion advocates -- Roe v. Wade's 40th Anniversary and President Obama's 2nd Inauguration -- the nation's largest abortion provider, Planned Parenthood, acknowledges that the whole pro-choice movement has failed, to the point they refuse to use the word 'pro-choice' any longer. As they try a brand-new strategy in hopes of shoring up their base and widening their appeal, it's clear that the true war on women includes their deception. Increasingly, science and technology are revealing the truth of the pro-life message: Life begins at conception. In addition, the success and sophistication of the pro-life strategy has curtailed the domination of Roe v. Wade so that more and more states are enacting reasonable safeguards to protect the well-being of girls and women."
Statement from Dr. Janice Shaw Crouse, Ph.D., Senior Fellow of Concerned Women for America's Beverly LaHaye Institute:
"At the point when abortion advocates should be riding high, their own leaders are criticizing the movement for being frivolous and lacking gravitas. Clearly, the abortion movement is facing a crisis. The truth about life in the womb is overcoming the distortions and myths of abortion rhetoric. Likewise, the harsh realities of the abortion industry are overshadowing the myths that the abortion activists promote about their concern for reproductive health for girls and women."

By Mayo Clinic staffOriginal Article: http://www.mayoclinic.com/health/bedbugs/DS00663
Bedbug |
Bedbugs bite the exposed skin of sleeping humans to feed on their blood. Decades ago, bedbugs were eradicated from most developed nations using DDT — a pesticide that's since been banned because it's so toxic.
Spurred perhaps by increases in international travel, bedbugs are becoming a problem once again. The risk of encountering bedbugs increases if you spend time in places with high turnovers of nighttime guests — such as hotels, hospitals or homeless shelters.
Bedbugs are reddish brown, oval and flat, about the size of an apple seed. During the day, they hide in the cracks and crevices of beds, box springs, headboards and bed frames. If you have bedbugs in your home, professional extermination is recommended.
Bedbug bites |
It can be difficult to distinguish bedbug bites from other insect bites. In general, the sites of bedbug bites usually are:
- Red, often with a darker red spot in the middle
- Itchy
- Arranged in a rough line or in a cluster
- Located on the face, neck, arms and hands
Some people have no reaction at all to bedbug bites, while others experience an allergic reaction that can include severe itching, blisters or hives.
When to see a doctor
If you experience allergic reactions or severe skin reactions to your bedbug bites, see your doctor for professional treatment.
The resurgence of bedbugs in developed countries may be linked to:
- Increased international travel
- Changes in pest control practices
- Insecticide resistance
Where do they hide?
During the day, bedbugs hide in the cracks and crevices of:
- Mattresses
- Box springs
- Bed frames
- Headboards
They also can be found:
- Under peeling paint and loose wallpaper
- Under carpeting near baseboards
- In upholstered furniture seams
- Under light switch plates or electrical outlets
How do they spread?
Bedbugs don't usually stay on their human hosts after their meal, but they might take refuge in clothes or luggage left nearby on the floor. If you're traveling and bedbugs get into your luggage, you might bring them home.
While bedbugs may hitchhike on your belongings, they can also crawl about as fast as a ladybug. So they can easily travel between floors and rooms in hotels or apartment complexes.
Some varieties of bedbugs prefer to feed on birds or bats, so they may take up residence in your attics or eaves. If their preferred prey migrates south, these bedbugs will settle for feeding on the humans in the house.
Sign of uncleanliness?
Bedbugs don't care if their environment is clean or dirty. All they need is a warm host and plenty of hiding places. Even pristine homes and hotels can harbor bedbugs.
Risk factors
Bedbugs are more common in crowded lodgings that experience high turnover in occupancy, such as:
- Apartment complexes
- Dormitories
- Homeless shelters
- Hotels
- Military barracks
- Refugee camps
Preparing for your appointment
Most bedbug bites require no medical treatment. You may want to consult your family doctor if you experience an allergic reaction to the bites or if you develop a skin infection after scratching the bites.
What you can do
You may want to prepare a list that includes:
- A detailed description of your symptoms
- History of recent international travel
- History of recent hotel stays
- All the drugs and supplements you take
What to expect from your doctor
Your doctor will carefully examine your bite sites and ask questions about the types of insects you might have been exposed to recently.
Tests and diagnosis
If you suspect that you're being bitten by bedbugs, immediately inspect your home for the insects. Thoroughly examine crevices in walls, mattresses and furniture. You may need to perform your inspection at night when bedbugs are active.
Look for these signs:
- Dark specks. Typically found along mattress seams, these specks are bedbug excrement.
- Empty exoskeletons. Bedbugs molt five times before becoming adults. These empty skins are light brown.
- Bloody smears. You may find small smears of blood on the sheets where you accidentally crushed an engorged bedbug.
Treatments and drugs
The itchy red spots associated with bedbug bites usually disappear on their own within a week or two. You might speed your recovery by using:
- A skin cream containing hydrocortisone
- An oral antihistamine, such as diphenhydramine (Benadryl)
If you develop a skin infection from scratching bedbug bites, your doctor may prescribe an antibiotic.
Treating your home
Once your symptoms are treated, you must tackle the underlying infestation. This can be difficult because bedbugs hide so well and can live for months without eating. Your best bet may be to hire a professional exterminator, who may use a combination of pesticides and nonchemical treatments.
Nonchemical treatments may include:
- Vacuuming. A thorough vacuuming of cracks and crevices can physically remove bedbugs from an area. But vacuum cleaners can't reach all hiding places.
- Hot water. Washing clothes and other items in water at least 120 F (49 C) can kill bedbugs.
- Clothes dryer. Placing wet or dry items in a clothes dryer set at medium to high heat for 20 minutes will kill bedbugs and their eggs.
- Freezing. Bedbugs are also vulnerable to temperatures below 32 F (0 C), but you'd need to leave the items outdoors or in the freezer for several days.
Some professional exterminators use portable devices to raise the temperature of a room to a lethal temperature. All stages of bedbugs can be killed at 122 F (50 C). In some cases, you may have to throw out heavily infested items such as mattresses or couches.
Preventing bites
- Cover up. Because bedbugs don't tend to burrow under clothing, you may be able to avoid bites by wearing pajamas that cover as much skin as possible.
- Mosquito netting. Some studies indicate that bed nets impregnated with the pesticide permethrin may help protect sleepers against bedbug bites. However, this practice may be helping bedbugs develop resistance to this pesticide.
Preventing infestations
- Secondhand items. Inspect used mattresses or upholstered furniture carefully before bringing them into your home.
- Hotel precautions. Check mattress seams for bedbug excrement and place your luggage on tables or dressers instead of on the floor.
- Birds and bats. Eliminate any neighboring bird and bat habitats that may serve as a refuge for bedbugs.
Insect repellents designed to protect against mosquitos or ticks aren't very effective against bedbugs.

King Zardari, Vazeer, Wormtongue and Co.
I have been thinking about Pakistan's problems recently and I think I have a solution: declare Pakistan a monarchy! Wait! Before you beat me up, at least hear me out. First, don't the words "President" and "Prime Minister" conjure up images in your minds of educated, well-bred, decent people? Zardari and Gillani don't really fit into the roles, do they? No, they don't. But now imagine His Highness King Zardari (the Great) and everything makes perfect sense. A king need not be an educated or able person. In fact, most of the time, he just needs to be lucky. And rich (duh). Actually, he must be VERY RICH, preferably at the expense of his people. Although not necessary, it is an added bonus if the King is extremely self-indulgent, with no regard for anyone else. Usually, a king is a king by the virtue of being some powerful dead guy's closest relative; in our case, Zardari is Benazir's husband (or should I say ex-husband?). Do you guys see now how perfect a candidate for kingship Mr. Zrdari is? Plus, Gillani is perfect for a Grand "Vazeer", loyal and not too smart.
I guess all of you have heard stories about that evil little "Wormtongue" at the court who keeps getting the King riled up against everyone and everything. And who can be better for the job than our very own Rehman Malik! As for the entertainment at court, I'm sure that the Members of the Parliament will be up to the task. Anyone who has doubts about this should watch a video of the recent fight between PPP and PML-N members in the assembly; I don't know about you guys, but that's entertainment to me! After all, who doesn't enjoy a good gladiator fight? Anyways, even if all else fails, we'll still have Maulana Fazl ur Rehman as the Royal Court's head jester.
Kingship is hereditary and so is politics in Pakistan; after all where else would you find a 20 year old "mummy daddy bacha" declared Chairman of a major political party, except maybe North Korea, but that's basically a monarchy too. Anyways, in Medieval England, the chaotic War of the Roses between the House of York and the House of Lancaster finally gave way to stable Tudor rule and although we are not quite there yet, we do have the Houses of Sharif and Zardari. A war is going raging between them as we speak and I think a suitable name for it would be the War of the Monies.
Moving on, once everything has settled down and King Zardari firmly established on Takht-e-Karachi, Pakistan will develop like never before! The reason for this is rather simple if you think about it; a private business usually performs better than a government owned one because the owners are genuinely interested in making it work and by the same token, once our politicians officially own Pakistan, they will work harder to improve it. After all, no factory owner or businessman ever stole money from his own accounts!

Samsung Galaxy Note 3 drops September 25 with 5.7-inch display, faux-leather shell
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Cell Phones, Corporate News, Google
At today's Unpacked event, Samsung announced its new S Pen-powered Galaxy Note 3, a bigger version of the large smartphone, with much improved internals. Aiming to end the talk of people complaining about the cheap plastic feel of Samsung devices, the company has given the Note 3 a faux-leather backing. You get a 5.7-inch 1080p display (up from 5.5 on the Note 2,) and the device will support the new LTE Category 4 as well as the new Samsung Galaxy Gear smartwatch. You get a 13 megapixel camera on back, with a 2 megapixel version up front, and the rear camera can record in up to 4K resolution at 30fps, a first for a smartphone. The Samsung Galaxy Note 3 will start shipping on September 25th rocking Android 4.3 Jelly Bean, available in black, white, and pink.
Android Jelly Bean 4.3 coming to Galaxy S 4, S III in October
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Cell Phones, Google, Software
If you're rocking a Samsung Galaxy S III or Galaxy S 4 and are wondering when you'll be able to get in on the Android 4.3 Jelly Bean update, today's Unpacked event made it clear that the software is coming to your handheld sometime during the month of October, around the same time as the update that will enable Galaxy Gear functionality. No word on when Android 4.4 KitKat will be made available.
Google announces Android 4.4 KitKat
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Cell Phones, Google, Software
Google Android (and Chrome) head Sundar Pichai has announced the next version of Android: KitKat. Yep - Android 4.4 will be known as KitKat, a name Google got the rights to use in partnership with Nestle, and continues the tradition of Android versions being named after sweet confections. While Google had been using the name "Key Lime Pie" internally for Android 4.4, "very few people actually know the taste of key lime pie," according to Android director of partnerships John Lagerling. Not sure why that matters, but obviously KitKat is a bigger marketing play.
No new features of KitKat have been announced just yet, but at least we know the name, and have a new Android icon with integrated chocolatey KitKat goodness integrated in.
Google is currently running a promotion that lets buyers of specially-marked KitKat packs to have a chance to win a free Nexus 7 or some Google Play credit.

It's official: Apple will introduce the iPhone 5S and iPhone 5C on September 10
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Apple, Cell Phones, Corporate News, Handhelds
As anticipated, Apple has sent out press invites to its next iPhone event, scheduled for September 10th. As Apple typically does, hints of what's to come are foreshadowed in the invite graphic. This time around, it appears that Apple is focusing on the multi-hued iPhone 5C, which we've seen will be available in multiple plastic colors as the entry-level iPhone option. We recently gave you a look at what you can expect both new iPhone models to look like. Of course, we'll have all the details for you live as it happens a week from today.
It's rumored that the iPhone 5S and 5C will go on sale on September 20th, ten days after Apple introduces them.
Google slashes price of Nexus 4, now $199 with no contract required
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Cell Phones, Google, Handhelds
With Apple expected to release the lower-cost iPhone 5C next month, Google has just cut the price of the Nexus 4, dropping it to $199 for the 8GB model without contract--that's $100 less than it cost just a day ago. If you prefer the 16GB version, you can get that one for $249. These prices are a steal for the Nexus 4, which is widely seen as the best current Android smartphone, even thought it lacks LTE. This is a much more inexpensive way to get the pure Google experience in a smartphone than it would be to buy the Google Play editions of the HTC One and Samsung Galaxy S 4. The price cut is now live in Australia, Canada, France, Germany, Spain, Korea, the United States, and the UK.

Apple iPhone 5, gold iPhone 5S, blue iPhone 5C shells compared [Video]
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Apple, Cell Phones, Handhelds, Rumors, Videos
It's widely expected that Apple will take the stage on September 10th to announce its fall smartphone update, including the iPhone 5S and lower-priced iPhone 5C. The iPhone 5S is expected to be available in a new champagne gold color, and we gave you a look at what the gold iPhone 5S should look like. Now, a video has surfaced that shows a black iPhone 5 alongside the rear shell of the white & gold iPhone 5S.
Additionally, a blue iPhone 5C rear casing is also compared, giving us a look at what Apple's iPhone for the budget-minded will look like when it launches next month. All signs are pointing to a September 20th release for Apple's updated fall smartphone line-up.

What can we expect from Apple's iPhone 5S A7 processor?
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Apple, Cell Phones, Rumors
The iPhone 5S is set to be revealed in two weeks, and being an S-type update, this typically means that Apple has spent time optimizing and maximizing under-the-hood performance of the iPhone that preceded it, in this case, the iPhone 5. The rumor mill says that the next iPhone will sport an A7 processor that is 64-bit and 31% faster than the A6 found in the iPhone 5. What would 64-bit processing do for the iPhone? Well, iOS 7 is intense on things like transparency and other graphical elements, and an optimized 64-bit processor could make those as smooth as butter. That's the benefit of Apple making its own mobile processors:
One of the biggest—if not the biggest—advantages Apple has in not being reliant on merchant silicon (they don't buy standard application processors designed by others) is that they can customize the A7/A8 etc to exactly fit their own apps / services frameworks, without making generic design compromises.
To see this best, contrast Qualcomm, whose processors will fit in hundreds or thousands of different Android models to Apple, whose A7 will go in to the iPhone, iPad and possibly the iPod and iTV. Because Qualcomm must support so many potential vendor configurations, they are forced to design by the 80/20 rule. Meanwhile, Apple can strip out absolutely everything it doesn't want on-chip, and add specific things it does, such as DSP or graphics capabilities which iOS is designed to use.
Of course, just because Apple is testing these processors, that doesn't mean that they'll see the light of day in the iPhone 5S. Other rumblings say that the next iPhone will also contain a fingerprint sensor, motion tracking sensor, a camera that supports a 120 FPS slow-motion mode, a gold color option, and possible even a 128GB option as well.
Here's what the gold iPhone 5S will look like
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Apple, Cell Phones, Design, Handhelds, Rumors
Apple will be releasing the iPhone 5S in black and slate, white and silver, and a new color: white and gold. Pictured above, you can see the coloring of the anodization, being a muted champagne gold color without the white glass plates installed. It's one way to create an external change in the S line of iPhone releases, which is generally all about under-the-hood changes and improvements, while the externals remain the same as the year before. We pretty much know that Apple will be announcing the new iPhone 5S on September 10, with the device launching 10 days later.
What do you think? You interested in the new gold color, or are you sticking with the more traditional variants? Me? I'm going with Anostyle again.

Most likely he'd be off on a lobbyist-funded junket.
should Don Young and the mortality tables cross paths? A question I always consider when the politician is well over the statistically known threshold of death. It may sound harsh but it is the reality: the older you are the closer you are to death.
I fear more the potential of who will be assigned to replace Young should he die in office. While the Lisa Murkowski type appointment is a thing of the past the replacement process is certainly not much better. There certainly are many party favorites who would be in line to fill the position even if it was for a few days.
Time to get your dose upped again.

This a great item and for it's intended purpose, works like a dream. I did however have to modify the top by cutting it shorter to fit without causing a clutch arm issue. It's a very easy mod.

Solid, will take some serious abuse. The stock ones will eventually bend, wearing down the master link of your chain.

Great chain roller. The fit was perfect and it seems to be holding up very well so far. I purchased another brand before this one and it was junk. This roller is worth the extra money. It also looks cool on the bike.

Zip it you has been racist bitter old man.
Auditioning for a gig on MSNBC.Furious that Condi Rice is not contributing to CBS.
False Flag Operator.
I´m so proud that I never bought into this RINO´s spiel. If I don´t see some record of advocacy of conservative principles of one sort or the other, I don´t buy it. Mere membership in the party or an administration are meaningless conservative credentials. Colon, [sic] if you think the Right is the problem in this country, you are a fool´s fool. Start [sic] telling the young AfAm men of America to marry their baby mamas -- at least one of them.
And, of course, no Republican can tell this affirmative action general to shut up without being called a racist. Powell is the rule, not the exception, for most of the civil rights black generation that, by any standards, have been given opportunities not on merit but, by the color of their skin. From young to old, they have nothing but resentment toward their nation and, in Powell´s case, his political party. Our chickens have come home to roost.
Colin Powell is not a Republican and has no business calling himself one. Colin Powell is an affirmative action baby who prospered in the Reagan/Bush defense build-up. I thank him for his service, but politically he is a left wing Democrat and has no business being taken seriously by anyone in terms of commenting on the state of the GOP.
Affirmative Action hire..and elevated...seeks his true level...In the mud.What a pathetic ingrate. His racism is only exceed by his stupidity.
Colin, you idiot. We do NOT want everyone to vote. We only want people who have a vested interest in the United States and are willing to vote for what is best for our nation and people.Don´t need Islamic votes - they vote for what´s best for themselves or Islam most of the time. Don´t need no welfare votes - they vote for more gimmees for themselves. Don´t need no crony-business man votes - they vote themselves (thru their companies) more from government coffers. Don´t need no socialist votes - they vote socialism - every time. I could go on but... you get the idea.
I for one don´t want everyone voting. I want all adult citizens to have the right to vote but if you don´t care enough to vote unless someone bribes you with a pack of smokes, I don´t want you voting.And let´s dispell the myth of the Republican party shifting to the right. Just once can we challenge that with a definition of what is meant by "far right" and by what metric the Republicans has moved from a point less consistent with that definition to one more so. This garbage keeps getting repreated and accepted without challenge.
He wants the republicans to give people a reason to vote, but the democrats have all the free give aways covered!
Blah, blah, blah, he is not one of us (republican-little r) so who cares...he is on his cable network, so long!
Lincoln had it right. The former slaves should have been shipped out of this country. Slavery was a terrible chapter however too many could never get beyond it and both those who were never slaves nor slave owner are paying the price. Blacks in power today see every issue through the prism of black retribution. Putting people with such an axe to grind in power is dangerous as they are blinded to to most everything else.The sins of the father are on constant display as communism creeps in to every crevice and crack of our nation. Frank Marshall Davis, Obama´s evil "mentor" must feel such satisfaction...as much as any pedophile can.
No one should listen to Powell. He is a criminal. He had evidence that should have been presented to the Grand Jury to clear an innocent Scooter Libby, and yet he withheld that evidence. Powell betrayed America..put that in your pipe and smoke it, Powell.
We only want people to vote once, only on the first Tuesday after the first Monday in November, and only if they show proof of filing a tax return without a refundable credit.
I wish his guy would shut up. He´s a washed up bureaucrat who advanced through affirmative action and did nothing impressive during his time in government.
Agree with #6, except for thanking him for his "service."
We understand your opinion. Now shut up and go away.
oops sorry. Condi Rice is NOW contributing to CBS.
We want everyone to vote? No we don´t. Felons, aliens, no way. I would not go to Canada, France, or the U.K. and expect to vote if I were not a legal voter. As far as felons, that is the price you pay for the crime, sorry, your choice was bad.
Lets set the record staright here. He is jealous of Obama. He thought that he should be president. He is mad that the GOP did npot drop everything when he was "considering a presidential run".Its just petty jealousy. He can´t come out against a "brother" so blame the GOP.
Powell, now Condi, Christie, before them McCain. Easy way to get fawning press attention. Go on television and criticize your felow Republicans in accordance with the approved MSM script. Do they even know they are being used?
Colon Bowell is butt-blathering again.
I guess he is expecting a position in this administration.
If someone wearing spiked combat boots walked up and kicked this traitor clown in the ´nads, I´d laugh, then I´d cheer! What a phony bologna big-mouth creep! Our "tent" isnt inclusive of a-holes like Powell or Christie...so get along and go where you belong! It is so disappointing to see a racist pathetic drooling fool who once fooled us! Go away!
Condi and Colin are part of the pResident´s team to fracture the GOP by 2014. I bet Condi had most of you fooled, especially the ones who wanted her to run for the GOP Presidential nomination.
I now see how Republicans went astray, Colin. I did see how Reagan appointed you to high places, I did see how George Bush I, appointed you to high places. And, I did see how George Bush II, appointed you to high places. I do see your true colors now, and I now realize that you are one of those affirmative action recipients of the first order. Your colors aren´t pretty, Colin Powell. Get lost!
The only way Colon has-been can get any press is as a pretend Republican criticizing the Republican party, so that´s what he does. Otherwise, no one would care what he thinks. When was the last time he was interviewed on any other topic?
The ´most worshipful´ (in his own mind) Colin Powell needs to shut his big fat yapper for a while. Enough already, General - you got what you wanted.
OK, Colin and Condi...let the race war begin.Your side may be better armed per capita, but I like our 6:1 odds.
The left would call us racist, #12, but I agree with you. I have NEVER been a fan of Africa, African people, nor African culture. Furthermore, to make me a super-racist, sexist, and homophobe(to use the lefts favorite attacks against white conservatives) I often daydream, and wonder what my beloved America would be like without blacks, Hispanics, lefty women and homosexuals......Ever think about that? I do....especially lately, in this Arab-influenced administration of Kenyan Barry Soetoro Arabs, Muslims, avowed commies, lefty ditz women,stoopid white men like Biden and America-hating Kerry, and fat Supreme court judges...Colin Powell should be served on a dinner plate to Chris Christie, and after dinner Christie can walk the plank and go down to the bottom of the Atlantic Ocean and stay there! There, thats a good start! Purge!
Powell is like the black sergeant in Eastwood's "Heatbreak Ridge".He is a Kiss A*ss playing to whoever he feels he needs to look to.I wonder how he was in Vietnam? Anyone know?He seems to be the epitome of all the bad that 'Step n Fetch It´ represented.His actions are smoother, but it´s still there. Yeah, he bosses aren't white, but there is certainly a plantationloving aiming to please aspect to him.
Already you can see the second term game plan with the MSM anything wrong will be because of the GOP.
Sorry, Colin: I´m with the Framers, who wanted only those with interest and "skin" in the game - like property owners and state legislatures - to vote in federal elections. They avoided universal suffrage for a reason. - a very good reason. We are now paying the price for amending their approach.
Remember the contentious 2000 election? Remember Cheney and Rice flying down to consult with Pres. Bush? Remember powell being forced to show up but keeping a huge distance between himself and Pres. Bush? Right then I knew he was a spineless creep.
Powell repeats the false meme that Republicans have shifted to the Right. The reality is that Democrats have stampeded to the extreme Left, while Republicans have not changed at all. Ignorant people who are not paying attention might be partly forgiven for failing to realize where the change is actually occurring. Powell is not one of them, and his remarks are disingenuous.There seems to be something seriously wrong and incongruent with this man´s public political pronouncements. He is not doing himself any favors by pretending to be a Republican while acting, talking and voting like a Democrat. He is not being honest.
Powell´s problem is that he knows he doesn´t have the voice to be James Earl Jones, or even that guy from the car insurance commercials.
At some time in the past Powell may have been a good general. I am unqualified to say. I am willing to take others´ opinion that he was. Yet Powell gave up all pretense of being an honest citizen or especially a Republican when he sat on his hands with knowledge of the who, what & where of the origination of the Plame Affair, while the president who entrusted him with power and position twisted slowly in the wind and his Vice-President´s Chief of Staff was prosecuted to the hilt under false pretenses after the prosecutor conspired with Powell for a solid year & a half of incredible angst, political intrigue and expense to hide their certain early knowledge almost from Day One that Richard Armitage, Powell´s head deputy and buddy at State, was the leaker they pretended was a mystery for no other reason than to cause the President political damage. But when that became wide knowledge, he was understood to me to be the perfidious toad anyone can see acting out today once again rather than the honorable man of high virtue he tries to paint himself. His actions, or inactions in this case, speak louder than the garbage he spouts as a self-proclaimed Republican.
I appreciate Colin Powell´s service to his country. Having said that, he joins Juan Williams and so many other African Americans of notoriety that keep playing the "race card" since that is ALL they think they have going for themselves. They truly are the "racists" in the world.

Write about life, but laugh at yourself.
Steve Sherman, Time-Traveler! Steve Sherman is a handsome, well-built young man, but he is emotionally troubled due to recent failures and shortcomings in his life. Experience his insirational journey of self-discovery as he is abducted and sent 2,000 years back in time to fight against Roman invaders. Following his abduction from contemporary society by the space alien Yerdan, Steve emerges on a desolate, wind-swept moor circa 61 A.D. He immediately meets the woman he believes is the greatest historical figure in history, Boadicea, Queen of the Ancient Britons. Though their relationship gets off on a rocky start - as the Queen initially believes he is a god - the two eventually form a growing interest in one another. When Boadicea discovers Steve is a mere mortal who possesses special powers, she finally accepts his offer of help, and Steve is permitted to fight alongside his historical icon against the hated Roman invaders. Steve befriends Verulanus, The Queen's second-in-command, and unkowingly sparks jealousy within the ferocious warrior Togatacus, a lesser Prince of the Iceni. As a romantic relationship develops between Boadicea and Steve, they continue to raze town and destroy Roman legions. Intrigue abounds as treachery and treason fester within their own ranks, and an inevitable showdown looms between Steve and Togatacus. Though a fictional retelling, the story plays out against a backdrop of interesting and educational historical facts. Intensity and drama ensue as the final battle approaches between the ancient Britons and Roman invaders. Read the action-packed conclusion to 'Steve Sherman, Time-Traveler!' and witness how Boadicea, who has lost everything, is able to rally her people and rise up against a tyrannical and omnipotent war machine. What a woman she must have been!
I have written 2 novels: "Sailors and Dogs Keep Off!" "Steve Sherman, Time-Traveler!" "The Gender Trap" - Short Story "No Match for Tina" - Short Story

Auto-advance: ON
Auto-advanceThis transcript is automatically generated
Just what does the Fed's decision mean for the US dollar and other key currencies and -- that -- play for your portfolio -- too nervous about stocks.
Joining us now out of Fox Business exclusive Michael Wolff welcomed so bloody series a senior currency strategist.
At Bank of New York Mellon and and -- you can make money in currencies can't -- in a very -- -- in a very quick way -- and explain to people who have never bought or sold the currency or invested in the way that is best.
That they able to do that out of the health kick start.
Well certainly one of the ways he can invest in foreign exchanges to go on to a online brokerage system and you can buy the currencies outright you can also go in the futures market and trade the dollar index.
Another way to invest in currencies is through ETF so though this is a budding.
A very new type of market and the liquidity the efficiencies are not quite there yet.
But -- that certainly an opportunity a way that a lot of professional investors go that I think is certainly open to.
Retail is to buy equities overseas.
Don't hedge your currency exposure.
If you like the country and you're investing for that reason.
Quite likely the currency's going to appreciate you we can to see currencies appreciate in in good economic conditions where equities -- rally.
So people are looking is saying that -- really nice Michael but I don't know what I'm supposed to like all right let's do this adversely.
Right now we're looking at real volatility in the US dollar so let's put out to the site for the moment and talk about.
The worst currencies right now -- invested so but didn't you or two ideas of stay away.
Okay that the two major currencies you -- will stay away from you wanna be defensive about if not outright -- is the the Euro.
For obvious reasons short -- if you don't already -- it.
You can't talk.
OK so you not only wanna be short euros.
Or be defensive and in in the -- -- you also want to stay away from Swiss francs the reason being is that the Swiss franc.
Wants to strengthen against the -- But the Swiss National Bank their Central Bank.
Is forcing it not to know the words they're in intervening in the market they're maintaining a cross -- -- floor of one point two.
-- to it to switch back and thoughtful way to do that is they just.
Pour Swiss francs -- -- the markets so that it weakens correct absolute -- so they're they're sellers a Swiss franc buyers of Euro so whenever the Euro weekends.
The Swiss franc weakens lockstep with it.
See this is what worries me about currency -- -- and that is that that you've got central banks who are in away distorting her manipulating because they get her but we don't want currency's so strong that it's too expensive for everybody else.
But you say there are some opportunities here we just talked about the two you don't like one of those three you do like great.
Okay in terms of the majors I think you have to love the US dollar you love the US dollar because.
Needham growth here is certainly outpacing growth in Europe it's it's -- -- growth and and much of the G-7 I think what you like the US dollar also as the currency.
First and last resort when it comes to the safe haven play.
And that is when you're uncertain about market conditions when you don't like what's happening in Europe.
You keep your money in US dollars -- temporarily -- and that's where I think this summer as the crisis in Europe continues to play out.
That's where not only be retail investors but also the professional traders will go number two.
Number two has to be the end.
Japanese investors have very few opportunities to invest at -- at least with a reasonable yields so when it comes to.
Yield enhancement they take the money offshore when times turn bad.
They bring the money back home.
For capital preservation that's what we're seeing right now the yen is performing at least as well as the US dollar and is expected to do so for the rest of the summer.
And finally number -- if I get to talk about my favorite my my favorite currency play really for the next six months to twelve months is the Canadian dollar -- like the Canadian dollar.
Not only as a well run economy.
Great fundamentals but also.
When we do see some easing of tensions over in in Europe and in some risk appetite being taken.
In the marketplace you're going to see commodities perform well and has -- perform well the Canadian dollar's gonna take off we're very close to parity here to come very close to parity in fact dollar Canada.
You're gonna see that drop probably below zero point 95 -- the Bank of Canada raises interest rates not many people are we looking at core inflation.
They're both at or above 2% in Canada in the US.
That's going to continuing get worse candidate raises rates before the US which will be good for the Canadian dollar.
Michael Wolf while teaching us how to invest in currencies teaching you listen you guys have to do look at other opportunities if you're too nervous about stocks thank you so much into.
Michael is with the Bank of New York Mellon what's it.

Communists embracing princely symbols: flag row in doubtful Moldova
Can you imagine today's communists wrapping themselves in the flag of a 16th century prince who was a relative of Dracula? It is not the plot of a bizarre play, but a very serious political row currently happening in Moldova. Former prime minister Vladimir Voronin's Party of Communists of the Republic of Moldova (PCRM) has launched a campaign to vindicate the ros-albastru (a bicolor red-blue banner which they see as belonging to the prince Stephen III) as a national symbol of the country. To make matters more complicated, Moldova's National Commission on Heraldry considers the banner as outrageous and false. Continue reading

Memphis had a "leaper" like Stephens years ago. Can't remember his name. Turned out that was about all he could do.
Seems to me he got drafted in one of the late rounds and was flushed out of the NBA after one year.
Was looking at the Tigers' stats and noticed the top rebounder is only haulin' down 6 rebounds a game. That's bad.
I think his name was Billy Wilson,could be wrong but he plays for the globetrotters.

NEW YORK — Americans paused again Tuesday to mark the 11th anniversary of the Sept. 11, 2001, terror attacks with familiar ceremony, but also a sense that it's time to move forward after a decade of remembrance.
Hundreds gathered at the World Trade Center site in New York, the Pentagon and Shanksville, Pa., to read the names of nearly 3,000 victims killed in the worst terror attack in U.S. history. President Barack Obama was to attend the Pentagon memorial, and Vice President Joe Biden was to speak in Pennsylvania.
But many felt that last year's 10th anniversary was an emotional turning point for public mourning of the attacks. For the first time, elected officials weren't speaking at the ceremony, which often allowed them a solemn turn in the spotlight, but raised questions about the public and private Sept. 11.
"I feel much more relaxed" this year, said Jane Pollicino, who came to ground zero Tuesday morning to remember her husband, who was killed at the trade center. "After the ninth anniversary, that next day, you started building up to the 10th year. This feels a lot different, in that regard. It's another anniversary that we can commemorate in a calmer way, without that 10-year pressure."
As bagpipes played at the year-old Sept. 11 memorial in New York, family clutching balloons, flowers and photos of their loved ones bowed their heads in silence at 8:46 a.m., the moment that the first hijacked jetliner crashed into the trade center's north tower, and again to mark the crashes into the second tower, the Pentagon and a Pennsylvania field.
President Barack Obama and first lady Michelle Obama observed the moment in a ceremony on the White House's south lawn, and then laid a white floral wreath at the Pentagon, above a concrete slab that said "Sept. 11, 2001 — 937 am."
Victims' families in New York began the solemn, familiar ritual of tearfully reading the names of nearly 3,000 killed, with personal messages to their lost loved ones.
"Rick, can you hear your name as the roll is called again? On this sacred ground where your dust settled?" said Richard Blood, whose son, Richard Middleton Blood, Jr., died in the trade center's south tower. "If only those who hear your name could know what a loving son and beautiful person you grew to be. I love you, son, and miss you terribly."
Thousands had attended the ceremony in New York in previous years, including last year's milestone 10th anniversary. Fewer than 500 family members had gathered by Tuesday morning, making paper rubbings of their loved ones' names etched onto the Sept. 11 memorial.
Commuters rushed out of the subway and fewer police barricades were in place than in past years in the lower Manhattan neighborhood surrounding ground zero. More than 4 million people have visited the memorial in the past year, becoming more of a public space than a closed-off construction site. On Tuesday, much of downtown Manhattan bustled like a regular weekday, except for clusters of police and emergency vehicles on the borders of the site.
Families had a mixed reaction to the changing ceremony, which kept politicians away from the microphone in New York for the first time.
Charles G. Wolf, whose wife, Katherine, was killed at the trade center, said: "We've gone past that deep, collective public grief" and said it was appropriate that politicians no longer speak.
But Pollicino said it's important that politicians still attend the ceremony.
"There's something missing if they're not here at all," she said. "Now, all of a sudden, it's 'for the families.' This happened to our country — it didn't happen only to me."
And Joe Torres, who put in 16-hour days in the "pit" in the days after the attacks, cleaning up tons of debris, said another year has changed nothing for him.

The Arizona Diamondbacks agreed to a $40 million, four-year contract with Martin Prado just a week after acquiring the former All-Star infielder in the trade that sent Justin Upton to Atlanta.
Prado made the All-Star team as the Braves' second baseman in 2010 but is slated to play at third base for the Diamondbacks.The 29-year-old infielder, who will play for Venezuela in this year's World Baseball Classic, is a career .295 hitter.Arizona sent two-time All-Star Upton and third baseman Chris Johnson to the Braves for Prado, right-hander Randall Delgado and three minor leaguers.Prado said in a conference call on Thursday that the trade took him by surprise.But, after a week, he said, "Now I see everything more clear, and I'm happy to be aboard with the Arizona Diamondbacks."He will earn $7 million this season, then $11 million each of the following three years. He could have gone through arbitration and become a free agent after this season."Since I got to the big leagues I've been looking to be more secure," Prado said."To be in the right spot and not have to worry about going through free agency. The way I am right now, I'm happy. I'm going to play more relaxed. I think I needed it."Briefly Pirates: Second baseman Neil Walker and right-handed pitcher James McDonald agreed to contracts, avoiding arbitration. Terms were not disclosed. Reds: Outfielder Chris Heisey and right-hander Alfredo Simon avoided arbitration. Heisey will make $1,325,000 and Simon will earn $890,000.Have more to add? News tip? Tell us

When she isn't at home with her husband and two kids, Stacey Varghese '99C is hard at work at her home away from home: St. John's University.
This enthusiastic alumna grew up just blocks away from St. John's and has always viewed it as an important part of her life. "When my family came to America from India, my uncle started the tradition of going to St. John's," explained Varghese, who was one of the first members of her family born in America. "His two sons also went here, then two of my other cousins came here and eventually it was my turn. So it's definitely been a family thing, and it's even more special because it's rooted right here in the town where I grew up." Her passion for the University has continued to rise, especially since she started working at St. John's six years ago. Varghese currently serves as Associate Director of The Loughlin Society in the Office of Annual Campaigns, reaching out to alumni and friends in order to acquire new members and renew current ones.
Named in honor of John Loughlin, the first Bishop of Brooklyn, The Loughlin Society is St. John's leadership giving society whose members contribute a gift totaling $1,000 or more each year. Their gifts directly impact the University's deserving students, helping to fund improvements to campus facilities, advanced technology and faculty research. "It's so rewarding to raise money that helps our students make the most out of their time at St. John's," Varghese said. "When my uncle came to America, he didn't have many resources at his disposal, so I know what that's like. I know what those kids are going through. And just like my uncle and the rest of my family, who paved the way for me to get a St. John's education, I'm now working with donors to help today's students reach that same goal."
Young alumni can join The Loughlin Society Associates Program for $150 a year – a reduced criteria that makes giving much more affordable for recent graduates. And employees can also get involved through The Loughlin Society Patrons Program, a tiered system that encourages consistently higher levels of giving. "The Loughlin Society is special because it calls attention to the people who make such a huge impact on this campus," Varghese noted. "Our members are great people, and we recognize their actions through dinners and a special concierge program. Not only do these individuals impact the St. John's community through their gifts, but also through their involvement in events and programs we host each year."
After graduating from St. John's in 1999 with a B.A. in English and Government and Politics, Varghese interned at the White House in Washington, DC and eventually transitioned to working as a Financial Analyst at Bear Sterns. But the allure of coming back to St. John's always remained strong, and she jumped at the chance to return to campus in a professional capacity.
"Working crazy hours on Wall Street can be fun," she said, "but the family atmosphere at St. John's is what ultimately drew me back. I knew I wanted to return to higher education and contribute to this great cause, and working with such wonderful alumni and friends has made it a real blast."
Above all, Varghese has been sure to keep the St. John's tradition strong in her family. She often takes her children with her to University events, such as the Alumni Great Lawn Party. "My hobby is my family, so to bring my kids and my husband with me to our events is perfect," she said. "It's my hope that other alumni and friends can do the same and make St. John's a major part of their lives. And through The Loughlin Society and other giving opportunities, they can feel good to be making a lasting difference on this great community."

The remaining plaintiff in the sexual battery lawsuit against John Travolta fired his lawyer, but the case could continue with another lawyer and another court, two lawyers told CNN on Thursday.
Gloria Allred confirmed Thursday that the plaintiff known as John Doe #2 has hired her to represent him and possibly file a new legal action against the actor.
"We believe that the lawsuit should be filed in another court and, therefore, the lawsuit that was on file was dismissed without prejudice," she told CNN. "We will be conferring with our client regarding what will happen next in this case."
Okorie Okorocha, the lawyer who initially filed the lawsuit in federal court last week, said his second client called him Thursday morning and said he was fired. He later learned Allred had been hired.
The suit, which accused the actor of groping two male massage therapists at hotels in Los Angeles and Atlanta in January, is being dismissed Thursday by Okorocha.
Travolta's lawyer, Martin Singer, has called the allegations by both men "ridiculous."
John Doe #1, who said that Travolta sexually harassed him at the Beverly Hills Hotel, hired Allred on Tuesday, just hours after he withdrew from Okorocha's lawsuit.
Allred said Tuesday that she and John Doe #1 would discuss if a new lawsuit would be filed against Travolta.
"We are in the process of conferring with him regarding the next steps, which he may wish to take," Allred said.
That dismissal was "without prejudice, which means that he is still legally entitled to file a lawsuit against John Travolta if he chooses," Allred said.
There was no immediate reaction from Travolta's lawyer to the latest developments.
John Doe #1 withdrew from the lawsuit after it was learned Travolta was in New York, not Los Angeles, on January 16, the day he had alleged the massage incident took place.
Okorocha told CNN the date should have been January 15, but the mistake would have hampered the chances of John Doe #2 in court. He also said "personality conflicts" with John Doe #1 contributed to the decision.
The lawyer insisted in a CNN interview Tuesday that he would "mop up" in the courtroom with the allegations made by John Doe #2.
Despite losing both clients, Okorocha told CNN Thursday that he still believes they "absolutely have cases" against the actor.
He accused Allred of stealing his clients, which she told CNN was "completely false."
"I get the case to national prominence and then someone who only does press conferences and sideshows, and doesn't actually go to court or do trials, just steps in and says 'I'll take the clients,'" Okorocha said.
Okarocha predicted that Allred would quick reach a settlement with Travolta that would include an agreement not to disclose its existence.
"I will find out what's in that settlement and I will get my equitable share of that settlement, because I did the majority of the work to get to where we are," he said.
Okarocha said there are two more people he represents who may become plaintiffs.
"If Travolta doesn't take responsibility, I'm going to file those cases," he said.

Animal Welfare |
For more than 40 years, Congress has entrusted APHIS with the stewardship of animals covered under the Animal Welfare and Horse Protection Acts. APHIS continues to uphold that trust, giving protection to millions of animals each year, nationwide.
APHIS provides leadership for determining standards of humane care and treatment of animals. APHIS implements those standards and achieves compliance through inspection, education, cooperative efforts, and enforcement.
12/02/2013 USDA Animal Care Creates Online Process for Submitting Animal Welfare Concerns
Find helpful contact information for APHIS' Animal Care program.
Under the AWA, APHIS issues licenses and registrations to certain animal businesses and research facilities and performs inspections to ensure proper animal care and treatment. The AWA's regulations as well as other policy documents issued by the AC staff clarify how USDA determines whether a licensed or registered entity is providing its animals with proper care and treatment.
The HPA is a Federal law that prohibits horses subjected to a practice called soring from participating in shows, sales, exhibitions, or auctions. Soring is a cruel and abusive practice used to accentuate a horse's gait. APHIS works actively with the horse industry to protect against such abuse and ensure that only sound and healthy horses participate in shows. Our ultimate goal is to end this inhumane practice completely.
APHIS is an emergency response Agency. Animal Care assists states in their efforts to include pets as part of their emergency plans. This responsibility was assigned to APHIS through the Department of Homeland Security's National Response Framework (NRF), a document that describes the Federal Government's coordination with the State, local and Tribal partners, States and non-governmental organizations on emergency planning.
To foster a better understanding of the AWA, HPA, and AC's role in household pet evacuation and sheltering during an emergency, a number of publications and reports are available.

It's Online Book Club Day! (Or at least it was supposed to be.)
You thought I forgot! Don't worry, it's cool. I thought you forgot, too.
In fact, I'm almost hoping you forgot, because I'm about to do something I don't think I've ever done before: I'm asking for an extension.
I'm a bit underwater at work. This means I need more time to go to the cyber store and buy cyber ingredients for the cyber crème brûlée I'm planning to make by using one of those tiny cyber kitchen torches. So fun.
(Bloggers, this also explains why I've been MIA in your comments sections and my own lately. I'm lashing with apologies, and will be back to reading your daily musings post haste, because I truly miss my friends!)
So. Instead of discussing Wench by Dolen Perkins-Valdez today, let's move our Book Club meeting to Monday, January 31. If you've read the book, then I'm sure (like me) you'll be ready to share your opinions about the major themes and characters from this author's "startling" debut novel. (Note: If you haven't read the book, you have a few extra days to get started. Don't worry–it's a fast read.)
Here's an online reading guide to help whet your appetite for our discussion. It includes a plot summary and 21 questions to help you structure your thoughts.
Personally, I think we can come up with better questions than the ones in the guide. If you'd like to submit a question or talking point for the discussion, I'll welcome it! Just e-mail me at email@example.com.
Thanks very much for granting my extension request. If you took the time to read the book, the least I can do is thank you by preparing an engaging discussion. Have a lovely Tuesday. In the meantime, please enjoy the latest installment of…
Roadside Shoe!
(I've been saving this one for a special occasion.)
My brother sent me this Roadside Shoe a few weeks ago, after he spied it in the parking lot of a local pizza restaurant. On the surface, it's nothing special. Just another Roadside Shoe!.
But. Here's why this particular installment blows my mind. Here's what makes it so unique.
The Roadside Insole.
Have a Roadside Shoe!? Send it to firstname.lastname@example.com. I'll feature your shoe pic here, and if you have a blog, I'll pimp that, too.

Serena was looking super hot in that outfit with her tall socks on. That tank top was on tight and her delectable nipples could be seen through her shirt. Romeo came over and she teased him with her juicy ass. She shook it in his face until he could not take it anymore. They continued the action in the bedroom where he munched on her sweet pussy. Then, she teased him some more by playing with her wet pussy. She sucked and fucked his cock. She got her pussy rammed from behind as her juicy rump bounced around. She got man juice all over that sweet ass.

This common reference to Ipod -I phone - I pad is getting grammatically boring:
I hereby proclaim the fore mentioned products should be know as the I P 3 group ( or the IP Cubed group) or product group or product line.
This should allow us to speed up all conversation and reference to this operating system / product family, while allow all of us to have some jargon that satisfies our need for an "insider catch phrase" that only we understand. Sort of like a gang sign for the rest of us, without having to be beat in or beat out.
Whud da ya say?
Great! Let's begin with those horribly over-used terms like "meme" and "paradigm" that no one seems able to use correctly. Then let's go back to "dimensions" instead of "form factor" (what other factors are involved?) and financial analysts' use of "guidance" instead of "forecast."
And last, but certainly not least, let's consign "ecosystem" to the landfill when used to describe a particular product or designer's sphere of influence.
So, IP3 it is! Let's get on the bandwagon.

This amazing splitter is surely one of the best pitches in The Monument. Formerly an aid route, this splitter now goes free and should rank high on any desert crack climber's to-do list. The route splits an otherwise blank, streaked wall right in the middle of the Tiaro Rado climbing area and consists of 3 cruxes. To begin, climb up some Chinle to the roof, plug in a couple pieces from a stance here and get ready. Tips locks and a couple crimps lead over the roof (protect this section with a #1 TCU as a green Alien is too big), make a desperate stab to another tips lock and a couple more moves lead to good fingers. Unfortunately, the good fingers are short lived; baggy fingers lead to ring locks up a slightly overhanging and slightly leaning crux. Push through the remaining ring locks and savor a couple perfect hand jam pods. Rest in these and prepare for the upcoming finish - 0.5s that slowly narrow down to tips. A couple final, big moves between tips locks lead over the mini-roof and to the anchors.
This splitter should be fairly obvious, climbing a beautiful, streaked wall approximately 100' right of where the trail meets the cliff.
Blue TCUs through #0.75s with one #2 Camalot. I found one blue TCU to be mandatory as the crack was too thin for a green Alien or blue BD over the roof. The anchors have chains and biners. Bring a tooth brush as this can get a bit dirty after a heavy rain.
Nice work, Jason. Never climbed in the Monument, but this thing sounds amazing! Inmight have to make a trip soon....
Another amazing send by the Famous Huston! Nice work, Jason.
Nice dude! I've looked at this thing many times and dreamt of being that strong. This is probably the hardest free route in Junction.
Nice Send!
Nice job, Jason! Looks awesome!
Is that the Student Aid route that's listed in Desert Rock III? Nice work on freeing it if it is (well even if it's not) that line looked hard.
This route should have more stars. I won't rate this climb, since I did not send it, but it's pretty amazing.

When Does Customer Sentiment Matter?
Among the topics covered at this week's Sentiment Analysis' Symposium was an exploration of just how much the negative or positive expression of sentiment about a company or a product really matters – and in what context it does. (Another one, which The Semantic Web Blog covered yesterday here, looked at the expected transition from sentiment to emotions analytics.)
Augie Ray, director of social media at Prudential Financial, and formerly a social media leader at USAA and Forrester, recounted some of the bigger blow-ups online in recent years: The passenger whose guitar was broken by United Airlines and made a Youtube video that went viral; NBC's 2012 London Olympics coverage that was criticized for dissing a tribute to the victims of terrorist bombings, among other things; and Bank of America's being castigated for its announced plan to institute debit card fees.
"We live and die by the concept that negative sentiment matters," he said.
