|Program description:
|Come kick up your heels to live fiddle music! Enjoy a tradition of community dancing and music handed down from generation to generation. Everyone gets involved – from ages 2 to 102 (especially those who have not danced before) -- in easy-to-learn American barn dance favorites: circles, squares, contras, as well as folk dances from around the world, like Ireland, Russia, Turkey, Israel, Tahiti, Mexico, France, Scandinavia, China and Africa. The toe-tapping tunes consist of reels, jigs, polkas, hornpipes and waltzes. Instruments may include fiddle, banjo, flute, pennywhistle, clarinet, guitar, piano, recorder, percussion, and more. While participation in the dancing is encouraged -- it's hard to sit still -- it's also fun to just watch and listen to the music. This program helps children develop an awareness of our traditional way of life - when people lived without electricity and had to make their own entertainment - and discusses the origins, sounds and uses of traditional instruments. The Family Dance usually includes a short sit-down period to talk about the dancing, music, instruments, and cultures. Here's a video sample of a family dance: http://homespun.biz/interfamilydance.htm

Rip off. Ruined my Christmas.
By Disappointed customer
from Toronto
If zero stars was an option I would pick that. Ordered as a Christmas present for my wife, arrived yesterday and it looks like junk from the dollar store. It comes in a cardboard box and looks worthless. Thank you shopping channel now I have to run around on Christmas Eve looking for a last minute gift. I am so upset.
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Extraordinary Value
By operalover
from Halifax NS
If I could give this a 6 star rating I would This is a stunning piece of jewellery which looks for all the world like a platinum piece. It is a showstopper bracelet which manages at the same time to be really classy and sophisticated. Wow!The construction is excellent and the links are beautifully put together so that the piece is completely fluid. It passed my "stocking test" -- I usually roll a new bracelet across a pair of pantyhose just to make sure the prongs do not catch, etc. This one passed with flying colours!A great buy at a terrific price. Even if -- like me -- you have not bought diamonds in silver because of a preference for gold only in fine jewellery, you will be convinced once you open the box.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

He is not the first and he won't be the last, but un-candidate Dino Rossi has created a nonprofit group that looks and feels like a campaign organization.
One key distinction is the organization, Forward Washington Foundation, can raise money and promote its president, Rossi, and his ideas without adhering to contribution limits and reporting the source of contributions. In open-books, open-records Washington, Rossi should voluntarily release the names of contributors and the contribution amounts.
Forward Washington calls itself "a nonprofit, nonpartisan organization dedicated to increasing public awareness of issues affecting the future of Washington state, its citizens and its economy."
Rossi is traveling the state, collecting thoughts for an idea bank with hopes of presenting them to the 2008 Legislature. The latter does not pass the smirk test because Democratic leaders in the House and Senate are unlikely to provide a political soapbox to present these ideas.
- Students seeking sugar daddies for tuition, rent
- Seattle-based seafood company shuts down
- What's the top spelling 'mistake' in Washington state? The answer could make you sick
- UW receiver Isaiah Renfro opens up about depression, announces he's leaving team
- So the NRA sends a questionnaire to a Seattle state senator ...

Rossi's group could well be legal, but falls in a gray area. The group is keeping Rossi's potential gubernatorial candidacy alive through speeches and travel.
Rossi's fair defense is that he hasn't decided he is running for governor in 2008. That is completely up to him — the when, the if.
But Forward Washington could become a precedent for future candidates and un-candidates. In the presidential campaign, Democrat John Edwards faces similar questions about anti-poverty groups promoting his campaign.
The state Public Disclosure Commission is doing preliminary work before beginning an investigation on Rossi's group and may not conduct a full investigation. It should decide whether such a group is legal under campaign laws or if such activities violate the spirit of our laws, which is more likely.
Rossi is the founder of this group and its primary public speaker. He is careful not to ask for anyone's vote, not to tell people to vote against Gov. Chris Gregoire. He is paid $75,000 by the foundation, which also covers his travel expenses.
At the very least, Rossi has a Google problem. Type in "Dino Rossi" on Google, and the first reference, "Dino Rossi & Forward Washington," sends Web travelers to Forward Washington. But the subhead says, "Rossi for Governor Campaign Website: News and Information about Dino Rossi."
Voters have a right to wonder why Rossi invented a group and pretends it is not part of a campaign.
Other candidates with varying degrees of separation from boards and salaries do similar things, but that doesn't make it right. There is a national trend toward use of nonprofit groups because of the almost nonstop fundraising required.
"There does seem to be increased use of various tax-exempt entities … by individuals who are thought to be prospective candidates and in many cases do become candidates down the road," said Paul Ryan, attorney for the Campaign Legal Center in Washington, D.C.
Even if it is not technically required, Rossi ought to announce contributors and the amounts donated.
If he becomes a candidate, voters will like him better for running a campaign and pre-campaign above reproach. Now there's an idea for the idea bank: Remember that in the ways of campaign disclosure, Washington thinks of itself as the Sunshine State.

XXX Senoritas
This site is closed.
This site is closed.
The 'senoritas' implies that the chicks are Latinas, and the 'xxx' tells us that the content is hardcore. Unfortunately, when you put them together, like at XXX Senoritas, you get a crappy, hardcore Latina site.
The best thing I can say about XXXSenoritas is that your membership gets you access to a large DVD archive with over 1,000 good-looking movies. The downside to the archive is that the content is available in streaming format only. There are also over 20 reality site links, but these too are streaming only videos.
Now that the good (or less bad) stuff is out of the way, we can get down to the poor XXX Senoritas content, which includes 21 videos and 67 photo sets. The content features a variety of solo and hardcore scenes with Latina chicks, including masturbation, blowjobs and anal fucking. That sounds pretty good right? So why did I call the site crappy, you ask?
Well, first off the quality of the videos isn't good. Each scene is split up into short clips that can be downloaded in both Windows Media and MPEG formats. The Windows Media clips are poor-quality,while the MPEG ones are better and are just mediocre. Either way they aren't good.
Not that you want anymore given the poor-quality of them, but they aren't updating anymore, so you aren't getting anymore anyway. Also, the almost $40 price tag is just ridiculously high given what you are getting. Sure, there are 28 bonus sites (besides the stuff I mentioned at the beginning), but they too are poor-quality, nonexclusive sites so who really cares. Latina chicks are very sexy, but XXX Senoritas is not where you want to go to see them.
* Please include a pro and a con about the site. Balance is essential in making a comment worthwhile. Scores without comments will be deleted.
* Watch out for ratings of zero and 100. In our opinion, there is no such thing as a site that is absolutely perfect or completely worthless.

PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale (PS3) Review
Written Friday, November 30, 2012 By John Robertson
It was only ever going to be a matter of time. Nintendo's Super Smash Bros series is too commercially successful and critically popular for it to have gone un-cloned indefinitely. In truth, it's a surprise that it's taken this long. The mix of accessible beat 'em up action and unabashed fan service is quite clearly a winning concoction and one with the potential to unite otherwise disparate segments of your audience. In other words, money in the bank.
However, to write PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale off as nothing more than a cynically produced parasite of a 'me too' would be unfair. The development duo of SuperBot Entertainment and Sony Santa Monica have taken Nintendo's formula and tweaked it into something that, while undoubtedly similar, is different enough to warrant your time and attention.
Clearly, selecting which characters were going to initially capture our attention was a difficult task. Despite having been in the videogame business for three home consoles and two handhelds, Sony struggles when it comes to finding enough interesting fighters to make up the generous 22 person roster. Beyond obvious choices like Nathan Drake, PaRappa, Kratos and Sackboy, things quickly start to get a little tenuous.
"Everyone pile on Big Daddy!"
Third party inclusions like Bioshock's Big Daddy, the new look Dante from next year's Devil May Cry and Metal Gear's Raiden are more difficult to get behind. While Big Daddy and company might look great and offer a welcome (if comical) juxtaposition when fighting the game's more cartoon-orientated personas, there's nothing that defines them as being particularly PlayStation-centric. Surely, the likes of Lara Croft, Crash Bandicoot and Spyro the Dragon, characters at least predominantly associated with Sony's first console, would make more sense?
Oh well, I suppose being 'current' is more important than being accurate.
Whatever the case, there can be no argument with the level of care and attention to detail assigned to each and every one of the roster. Every costume, taunt and victory makes sense in the context of the fighter in question. More impressive, though, is the way in which signature visual notes have been incorporated into attacks and movement. Many of Sackboy's attacks involve him quickly delving into the Pop-It menu, Nathan Drake is able to magically summon a low wall as cover and Fat Princess uses a slice of cake as motivation to keep her interested in the fight.
The result is characters that feel unique, making experimentation with each and every one a worthwhile endeavour. With matches supporting up to four combatants at a time, there's rarely a moment when you feel things are lacking in the aesthetic department... although it must be said that fights wholly made up of the more realistic-looking cast members (think Heavenly Sword's Nariko and inFamous' Cole) do lack a certain flair in comparison to their more colourful, outlandish counterparts.
Stages are similarly packed to the rafters with nods and winks to the games that they're based on. Each one is a mash up of two different games, most (but not all) of which have some link to at least one of the fighters.
Raiden decides to breakdance rather than fight.
One of the best examples is the Dreamscape stage, which is a combination of LittleBigPlanet and the Buzz series of quiz games. The stage begins as a blank canvas, a simple flat expanse of twee green grass. As time goes by though, the space starts to fill up as an invisible level designer builds the stage around. Trees, bridges, platforms and hills are added, all of which are traversable and demand a tactical change. If the fight lasts long enough the Buzz presenter (erm, Buzz) starts to ask you questions, the answers to which are assigned to different parts of the arena; stand in the correct section or get penalised.
Other stages feature similar blending of games, although predominantly in a purely visual manner. The LocoRoco arena is torn to the ground by a rampaging Metal Gear Ray, the backdrop to PaRappa's dojo sees giant versions of Chop Chop Master Onion and Killzone 3's MAWLR do battle and the brilliant Stowaways stage sees Uncharted 3's cargo plane fly past Bioshock Infinite's floating city of Columbia.
So, the fan service, the nostalgic tug at our memories and the visual execution of both is excellent. But this alone is not enough to set Battle Royale apart from Smash Bros, and it's certainly not enough to better it. Where things differ greatly is in the fighting system.
While it would be a stretch to say that Battle Royale is more on par with a 'proper' fighting game, it's certainly true that it's far closer to one than Smash Bros is. There's enough complexity in the combo and juggling systems to prevent newcomers being able to best veterans through simple button mashing alone. It's worth spending some time in the training and practice areas to hone your skills before tackling the harder difficulty levels or strutting your stuff online.
Those combo skills come in handy when trying to build up your special meter, an act that is necessary rather than optional. Hitting your opponents with a special attack is the only way to kill them, thus the only way to score a point. Your meter can be charged up to a maximum of level three, forcing you into a risk/reward decision about when you want to strike.
Violence in LittleBigPlanet's makeshift world.
All three levels of special will kill your opponent, but your chances of landing the hit in the first place increase as you work your way up the ladder. Generally speaking, level one attacks target a small area and are fairly easy to dodge, while level two attacks have a wider spread and give you longer to get it right. At level three you're all but certain to kill everyone in play.
Winning conditions take one of two forms: reach a certain number of kills, or play until the timer hits zero. Therefore, the decision boils down to unleashing level one special attacks early at the risk of missing them all, or waiting until you're at level three at the risk of leaving it so late that someone else has already won.
These decisions become more pressing when playing in multiplayer, especially with four-players crowded around the same screen. Badgering, taunting and verbal violence go hand in hand with a game like this, and one bad decision can be the difference between a night of glory and a night of humiliation. Online multiplayer works perfectly well and is a good option if you're someone with a lack of real-life friends or a sensitive disposition to close physical proximity.
Limited single-player options make the uninspired arcade and versus modes a distant third best option and should only really be used to improve your skills or learn a new character's moveset.
If you're looking to increase your haul of trophies, then you're in luck with Battle Royale - the majority of tasks requiring more persistence than skill. The bulk are awarded for completing arcade mode on any difficulty with each of the characters, while another stack are reserved for executing each fighter's level three special on their own stage.
Sackboy knocks Dante for six.
There are a small number of trophies reserved for online play, but none that are wildly difficult and most requiring you to either complete or win a match in the various game types. Players new to beat 'em ups might find the trophies assigned to executing combos more difficult, but if you've ever played Street Fighter/Tekken/Mortal Kombat you'll breeze through them no problem.
By and large, then, PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale is a success. Paper-thin single-player options and some questionable character inclusions aside, there's little to complain about. While there's nothing truly outstanding on offer here, there's plenty to like and the fun to be had in local multiplayer means it will get plenty of use in future months.
Most importantly, this is no mere clone of Super Smash Bros; there are reasons to play and own both games. It will be interesting to see where Sony decides to go from here with what is almost certainly going to become a new franchise. Whatever the case, there's enough potential on show to make us cautiously optimistic about the series' future.
Plenty of recognisable theme tunes and character quotes. There's nothing that will delight you about the soundtrack/dialogue, but what's here is well presented.
Consistently inviting, not a glitch or frame rate dip in sight. Cartoony charm sits alongside grittier, dirtier content creating a visual aesthetic that provides something unlike anything else on the PS3.
Brilliant in multiplayer, passable in single player. Credit to the design team for creating a fighting system that feels fresh and accessible, while not being so different that it alienates existing beat 'em up fans.
While it's worth playing purely for the quality of the multiplayer, more imaginative and varied single player modes would have been very welcome. Stick to local multiplayer and you'll have no complaints.
Uninspired for the most part, simply requiring you to sit down and slog through them. Aside from the trophies for executing combos, there's nothing here that encourages you to improve your skills. On a positive note, they are easy to obtain.
Not only is PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale surprising good, it's also surprisingly individual. It would have been easy to simply copy the blueprint provided by Super Smash Bros wholesale. Instead, while the basic premise is the same, the gameplay is different enough to separate it from Nintendo's offering. Whether or not it will ever be able to move out of Mario and co's shadow is another matter...

if Nicky had the testing time and didnt have a broken right hand he would have been able to keep up with Rossi I am sure, still Rea did good to keep it clean, recover from that almost crash and score some good points. He will need to get the gap down to 1.2-1.1 seconds next round at Aragon.

Gun Parts
|Seller's Description
NO RESERVE!! Here's a very handsome rifle with some interesting lineage. This is a vintage custom sporter based on the Springfield US Model 1903 action. Chambered for the 7mm Mauser (7x57mm), this rifle was originally built by famous American gunsmith A.O. Niedner in the 1920's or 1930's and the barrel has his company marking. Some time later it was restocked by another celebrated American gunsmith, Mr. Roy Vail, and the wrist of the stock bears his small stamp as well. Overall condition is very good with about 98% blue finish remaining. There is no rust or pitting. The bolt is nicely jeweled and the handle has been turned down for scope mounting. A low swing safety and an adjustable single stage Jaeger trigger are also installed. The walnut stock is very nice as well with sharp checkering and only minimal wear. The stock has been cut for a receiver sight (the base is included but the upper half is missing) as well as for a Jaeger quick detach scope mount. The stock features an ebony forend tip, cheek piece, swivels, buttpad and gold inlay with monogram in underside of butt. LOP measures 13-1/2". The mechanics appear to be in perfect working order. The bore rates very good showing strong rifling with some wear but no pitting. A.O. Niedner was famous for his custom rifles and was the inventor of the popular .257 Roberts cartridge (and some say the .25-06). Roy Vail was recognized for his outstanding stock work and engraving. This rifle has a "Low Serial Number" Springfield receiver. Some of these early receivers had heat treat problems yeilding a too brittle receiver that could fail with excess pressure loads. I would feel safe in saying that since this rifle has survived 100 years without a problem it will probably go another 100 with reasonable care. This is a very nice rifle in a great caliber. Buyer pays $25.00 shipping. Your C&R License is acceptable for transfer.

text: TREATING EVIL: Andrea Yates allegedly drowned her five children in a bathtub last June. Now she's pleading insanity. Husband Russell Yates said his wife suffered from postpartum depression after their two youngest children were born, and it became worse after her father died. Prosecutors in Texas plan to pursue the death penalty anyway. A competency hearing was set for Aug. 28. Good for them, says columnist Don Feder. If Jeffrey Dahmer could be convicted of murdering 15 people and Susan Smith put away for drowning her two kids, Yates surely deserves punishment. "Granted, Yates was depressed," he said. "Who isn't? Just thinking about the outpouring of sympathy for the woman depresses me. If depression is an excuse for murder, prepare for a bloodbath." Feder concludes that our secularized society can't face the fact that evil really exists and so must turn to psychology for explanations. "It's frightening to think that a sane person could ruthlessly slaughter five children, kill and cannibalize 15 young men or murder 6 million strangers. It's actually comforting to attribute such horrors to insanity. Mental illness can be treated with drugs and psychotherapy. But how do you treat evil? With the weapons of the spirit. And, when necessary, with very strong bars or a lethal injection." TIME TAKES NOTICE: Homeschooling made the cover of Time. With an article titled "Seceding from School," John Cloud and Jodie Morse say the movement is starting to shake up public education. In Florida, for example, the state loses nearly $130 million because 41,128 children are out of the system. The rising tide also means taxes that support government schools may be in trouble. Cloud and Morse speculate that the economy may send parents back to work and away from homeschooling. "But for now, homeschooling is still growing at about 11 percent a year, and it's no longer confined to a conservative fringe that never believed in the idea of public education anyway," they remark. The Time writers bring up familiar issues about socialization, parental sacrifices, college admission, and nontraditional curricula. They wind up concluding that homeschooling is "flawed" and some sort of "healthy synergy" between public school and homeschool is a good idea. They end the article with a worried statement about how state education may decline and become "simply another consumer good pushed by market forces and not a common good that transcends them." While a cover story like this at least takes homeschooling seriously, it still presents a subtle negativity toward the movement. BEYOND CRITICISM: Do Buddhism's American fans understand the religion's human problems? That's what Joshua Kurlantzick wonders about in The New Republic in a dispatch from Bangkok. He says he studies Buddhism, but wonders about Western stereotypes of a pure, serene, and incorruptible faith. He said he heard some disturbing stories when visiting World Fellowship of Buddhists last fall. Thais told him about "saffron-robed Buddhist monks [who] were guilty of graft, lechery, and other crimes." News stories told of monks committing murder and sexual abuse. Kurlantzick said he asked a Buddhist feminist "whether it bothered her that, in Thailand, the aged Sangha [leadership] covers up sex crimes committed by monks and prohibits women from playing virtually any leading role in the religion. Or that in Sri Lanka some monks support the war against the Tamil rebels. No, she replied, insisting that Buddhism is dealing with its contradictions faster than other faiths. When I raised my concerns at a seminar on the religion, people simply shushed me. The media perpetuates this silence." Little of this bad news is heard in America, Kurlantzick notes, even though the United States has around two million Buddhists. Romanticism seems to cloud the reality of wayward monks in a faraway land.

Texas Senator Ted Cruz Wins 2016 Presidential Straw Poll at a Republican Leadership Conference in New Orleans, Louisiana
If Ted Cruz is Constitutionally allowed to run for President … He will be a real threat to Democrats and establishment Republicans …
Texas Senator Ted Cruz won the 2016 Presidential straw poll at a Republican Leadership Conference in New Orleans, Louisiana. Cruz finished first with 30.33%, Dr. Ben Carson second with 29.38% and Kentucky Senator Rand Paul finished third with 10.43%. They were followed by former Arkansas Governor Mike Huckabee and Texas Governor Rick Perry rounded out the top five, at 5.06% and 4.90%, respectively. Moderate RINO's Florida's former Governor Jeb Bush came in 7th with 4.42% and New Jersey Governor Chris Christie came in dead last with 1.11%. During his speech Cruz said that Republicans would take back the Senate, they will retire Sen. Mary Landrieu (D-LA) and remove Harry Reid as Majority Leader.
Cruz finished in first place in the annual conference's presidential straw poll at 30.33%. Dr. Ben Carson, a Fox News commentator and conservative activist, finished in second with 29.38% while Sen. Rand Paul, R-Kentucky, was third with 10.43%.
Fox News host and former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee and Texas Governor Rick Perry rounded out the top five, at 5.06% and 4.90%, respectively.
Neither Carson nor Paul spoke at the conference, but their support was a show of confidence by the traditionally more conservative crowd. The annual meeting of activists features of who's who of big-name Republican politicians. It is an important appearance for potential presidential candidates to make.
More moderate Republicans also skipped the conference, but many fared much worse in the straw poll. New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie came in dead last with 1.11% while Florida's former Gov. Jeb Bush and current Sen. Marco Rubio and came in seventh and eighth at 4.42% and 3.32 %, respectively.
Nobody Cares what any politicians in Washington says. Power in politics, sovereignty in America is with We the People!
Ted Cruz, an ardent defender of The Bill of Rights and the Second Amendment said during his speech, "In Texas, we define gun control real simple. That's hittin' what you aim at." Cruz Also went on to say, "that following the tragic shooting in Newtown, CT the president didn't do what she should have done. What he should have done is he should have stood up and said we are going to go after violent criminals and we are going to come down on violent criminals like a ton of bricks. instead he used it as an excuse to come after the rights of law abiding citizens."
Cruz consistently pointed out that Democrats and establishment gray-beard Republicans both says that things can't get done. Yet time after time in examples of drone strikes against Americans, Second Amendment gun control, foreign affairs and provisions in the International monetary fund. All won by conservatives.
Too often the establishment GOP says it can't be done because they are afraid to take a position. In order for there to be change, not only must Democrats go, so must the establishment Republicans who have long forgot what they were sent to Washington, DC to do.
Cruz went on to blast the establishment same old-same old way of doing things within the GOP of trying to win elections. There is a cluster of political consultants who keep running losing campaigns, making the same mistakes and keep coming back to donors to make the same failed mistakes that did not win the previous times. He stressed that the way you win elections is you stand for principle and you empower the people.
This Used to be America … Long Island Police Officer Threatens to Ticket Man for Washing His Own Car in His Own Yard Because of Idiot Neighbor & More Idiotic Law (VIDEO)
Remember when we used to live in America?
Check out the VIDEO below where a police officer is threatening a home owner with a ticket for washing his car in his own driveway. UNREAL. But before you blame the officer, you may want to first blame the moronic, PITA neighbor who called the police or the ignorant politicians who passed an ordinance that stated people could not wash cars in a public place. The cop was pretty straight forward that he was only the messenger. However, I will say this … the police officer got it wrong on the intent of the ordinance. You can hear the police man say that washing a vehicle is prohibited in a public place. Um, what part about private property is a public place? NOTHING!!! The ordinance did not say public view. But I would ask this … what moronic idiot politicians passed a law violating an Americans private property rights? This is what has happened to Our Country in that little by little our liberties have been taken away by a tyrannical federal, state and local government
"What is that? Doing any kind of work here or any kind of detailing, like washing the car — things like that you are not allowed to do," the police officer said.
The officer said although the car wasn't going to be washed in the street, which is illegal, washing it in the driveway would still be in the public's view, Hall reported. No one received a ticket during the ordeal and The Garden City Police Department had no comment about the incident.

Top Secret Rules Allow NSA to Use US Data Without a Warrant … NSA Powers Wider than Thought
Like we did not think this already …
From the Drudge Report comes the following regarding the NSA, SECRET NSA POWERS WIDER THAN THOUGHT.
From the Guardian comes the news that the NSA powers are much more wider and intrusive that previously thought. Why is this not a shock? The Guardian is reporting that the top secret rules that allow NSA to use US data without a warrant. Huh, weren't we told they always needed a warrant? It would appear Obama lied to us once again. Is it any wonder why many were so upset that Snowden blew the whistle on the NSA … Just how much of what they do is really known and is it Constitutional?
Top secret documents submitted to the court that oversees surveillance by US intelligence agencies show the judges have signed off on broad orders which allow the NSA to make use of information "inadvertently" collected from domestic US communications without a warrant.
The Guardian is publishing in full two documents submitted to the secret Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court (known as the Fisa court), signed by Attorney General Eric Holder and stamped 29 July 2009. They detail the procedures the NSA is required to follow to target "non-US persons" under its foreign intelligence powers and what the agency does to minimize data collected on US citizens and residents in the course of that surveillance.
The documents show that even under authorities governing the collection of foreign intelligence from foreign targets, US communications can still be collected, retained and used.
More from Mediaite: The Guardian: Info 'Inadvertently Acquired' By NSA 'Can Be Retained, If It Is Useful'.
Much More at Drudge:
Spy agency can snoop without warrant…
… Keep data collected 'inadvertently'
Lawyers eye for evidence in murder, divorce cases…
CLAIM: Top judges, generals, politicians wiretapped…
Judge's one-paragraph order governs mass collection…
REPORT: SKYPE helped gov't access customer data…
McConnell: Attack on free speech…

FBI Director Robert Mueller Admits Domestic Use of Drones for Surveillance (VIDEO)
FBI director Robert Mueller now admits that drones are used domestically in the United States for surveillance. However, he stated that their use was "very seldom". I guess it is all how one defines very seldom. So much for privacy. I am sure this is Constitutional as well. So is the answer that the FBI, NSA, CIA, DEA, ATF, etc. can do anything that they damn well please when it comes to snooping on all Americans under the guise that it protects us from terrorism? Food for thought America, if it takes us becoming a police state to protect us from terrorists, the terrorist have won.
The FBI uses drones for domestic surveillance purposes, the head of the agency told Congress early Wednesday.
Robert Mueller, the director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation, confirmed to lawmakers that the FBI owns several unmanned aerial vehicles, but has not adopted any strict policies or guidelines yet to govern the use of the controversial aircraft.
"Does the FBI use drones for surveillance on US soil?" Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa) asked Mr. Mueller during an oversight hearing on Capitol Hill Wednesday before the Senate Judiciary Committee.
"Yes," Mueller responded bluntly, adding that the FBI's operation of drones is "very seldom."

Losing the Youth Vote … Obama's Job Approval Falls 17 Points With those Age18 to 29 … Scandals, Scandals, Scandals
It finally appears that Barack Obama has lost that loving feeling of the youth vote.
Yesterday we reported that Barack Obama's job approval in a recent CNN poll fell to 45%. However, further looking into the numbers revealed an even more glaring loss of support. Obama's approval rating fell 17 points to 48% with those who are age 18 to 29. So what's the reason for the drastic drop with the youth? Could it be that they finally realize that they will be paying a disproportionate share for Obamacare? Could it be that they realize they have a mountain of college debt and no job? Probably not as they have had a time to digest these fiascos under Obama. Most likely it is because they realize that Barack Obama was not the one they had been waiting for and was no different that any other lying president. The scandals are starting to even affect the young. The IRS scandal and NSA are probably highest on the list of the multiple scandals. Obama stated as a candidate he would stop wire tapping and spying on legal Americans (VIDEO); however, the youth have recently learned a much different story. Today's youth are more wired in to the internet, Facebook and social media than any other age group. Now they realize that the president who said they would not be spied on is doing the unthinkable, spying on them. It's time for today's youth to grow up and understand, the "One" they had been waiting for, was not. It's always difficult for the idealistic young to realize that their hero is nothing more than Richard Nixon.
Have all the scandals become too much even for today's youth? They appear to have lost trust in Obama, I guess they no longer believe, in Obama, they trust.
Even more surprising: The overall decline in his approval rating was partially fueled by a plunge in support from younger Americans, a huge base of Obama's support.
Last month, nearly two-thirds of those in the 18-29 age group gave the president a thumbs up. His approval rating among that bracket fell 17 points in Monday's poll and now stands at 48%.
"One explanation may be that younger Americans are more likely to feel they are personally affected by the surveillance programs," said CNN Polling Director Keating Holland. "More than half of all senior citizens, for example, think that the government has not collected their personal information, and since older Americans are less likely to use the Internet, they may be right. Among younger Americans, two-thirds believe that the federal government has gathered their personal data."
More Analysis from CNN: Obama overseas, poll numbers under water
This administration has gotten pretty good at riding the ebbs and flows of poll numbers," said chief national correspondent for The New York Times Magazine Mark Leibovich. "In the second term it's easier to sort of, not shrug it off, but certainly to ride it out a little bit."
"The president's trend line on his popularity, and the level of trust that Americans have for him, is going down, right as many Americans feel the economy is starting to recover, and their perception's about the economy's starting to go up," said CNN contributor and former senior adviser to Mitt Romney Kevin Madden.
The Week has 3 reasons why Obama, White House an Dems should be concerned.
- Obama's base is wavering
- The trust problem could grow
- GOP attacks are starting to stick
ACLU Files Lawsuit Challenging NSA's Patriot Act Phone Surveillance Against We the People … Violates Americans' Constitutional Rights of Free Speech, Association & Privacy
Once again we are witness to a government that has become just too big.
As reported at the New York Times, the ACLU has filed a aw suit against the federal government challenging the NSA's phone surveillance against "We the People". In an interesting twist, the left leaning ACLU has filed a law suit against the far-Left Obama administration over the collection of logs of domestic phone calls of all Americans where they were the target of an investigation or suspected of terrorism or not. The law suit names Director of National Intelligence James Clapper, NSA Director Keith Alexander, Attorney General Eric Holder, Defense Secretary Charles Hagel and FBI Director Robert Mueller III as defendants. It is pretty bad when the ACLU is forced to sue the Obama administration over such an issue, or face a complete lack of credibility.
The American Civil Liberties Union sued the Obama administration on Tuesday over its "dragnet" collection of logs of domestic phone calls, contending that the once-secret program — whose existence was exposed last week by a former National Security Agency contractor — is illegal and asking a judge to stop it and order the records purged.
The lawsuit could set up an eventual Supreme Court test. It could also focus attention on this disclosure amid the larger heap of top secret surveillance matters revealed by Edward J. Snowden, the former N.S.A. contractor who came forward Sunday to say he was their source.
I have personally disagreed with many actions in the past and inactions by the ACLU, who is supposed to defend all Americans civil liberties. However, I have to give them credit here. The ACLU filed a law suit charging that the program violates Americans' constitutional rights of free speech, association, and privacy. It is troubling that the US government thinks that it can just sweep up all data without any cause of legal search and seizure. It is even more eye opening that Barack Obama when he was Senator and candidate Obama ridiculed and vilified this program. When he became president, the program went on steroids.
In the wake of the past week's revelations about the NSA's unprecedented mass surveillance of phone calls, today the ACLU filed a lawsuit charging that the program violates Americans' constitutional rights of free speech, association, and privacy.
This lawsuit comes a day after we submitted a motion to the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court (FISC) seeking the release of secret court opinions on the Patriot Act's Section 215, which has been interpreted to authorize this warrantless and suspicionless collection of phone records. [...]
The ACLU's complaint filed today explains that the dragnet surveillance the government is carrying out under Section 215 infringes upon the ACLU's First Amendment rights, including the twin liberties of free expression and free association. The nature of the ACLU's work—in areas like access to reproductive services, racial discrimination, the rights of immigrants, national security, and more—means that many of the people who call the ACLU wish to keep their contact with the organization confidential. Yet if the government is collecting a vast trove of ACLU phone records—and it has reportedly been doing so for as long as seven years—many people may reasonably think twice before communicating with us.
Legal Insurrection reminds us that this was not the first law suit filed when it comes to the NSA data dragnet, Larry Klayman, former chairman of 'Judicial Watch' filed one as well.
On Sunday, a similar suit was filed by Larry Klayman, former chairman of Judicial Watch, against President Obama, Eric Holder, Keith Alexander, the NSA and Verizon CEO Lowell McAdam, among others. The suit claims that the government's phone surveillance activities "violates the U.S. Constitution and also federal laws, including, but not limited to, the outrageous breach of privacy, freedom of speech, freedom of association, and the due process rights of American citizens."
Hope the Journal News is Happy .. Elderly Gun Owner's Home Outed By NY Newspaper Is Burglarized to Steal his Guns … What a Coincidence His Name and Address was Just Published
Who didn't see this one coming?
It was only a matter of time, a White Plains elder man's home was robbed whose residence, name and guns he owned was shamefully published on the web by the Journal News. The burglars targeted the man's gun safe. What a coincidence, eh? As reported on the video at Newsday, neighbors stated that they cannot even remember the last time there was a break in/robbery in their community. Yet another coincidence after the liberal Journal News outed law abiding citizens and published their addresses and the guns they owned and put them in harms way.
I hope the folks at the Journal News are proud of themselves. Thanks for making law abiding citizens and individuals who follow the rules at risk to the scum of America. Those who criticized the Journal News for doing this outrageous action said that they had violated these individual's privacy and subjected them to danger. Looks like they were 100% correct.
A White Plains residence pinpointed on a controversial handgun permit database was burglarized Saturday, and the burglars' target was the homeowner's gun safe.
At least two burglars broke into a home on Davis Avenue at 9:30 p.m. Saturday but were unsuccessful in an attempt to open the safe, which contained legally owned weapons, according to a law enforcement source. One suspect was taken into custody, the source said.
The gun owner was not home when the burglary occurred, the source said. The victim, who is in his 70s, told Newsday on Sunday that he did not want to comment while the police investigation continues.
Police are investigating what role, if any, the database played in the burglars' decision to target the home, the law enforcement source said.
White Plains police Lt. Eric Fischer confirmed that a burglary occurred but would not release further information Sunday.
The burglary is being investigated by the police, one suspect has been arrested.
Mums the word these days from the Journal News is explaining themselves as to why the outed law abiding Americans who had committed no crime. What will they say when some one is killed thanks to their irresponsible journalism?

National | NASA punctures a Mars myth; AOL hikes prices; and Sony offers a glimpse at the future of handhelds
Mars hill
What is that face on Mars anyway? It's nothing but a hill, scientists say, but a cult of speculators say it's something else. NASA released pictures taken in April by the Mars Global Surveyor spacecraft, and they throw cold water on the curious. The shots add detail not before seen and make the terrain look less "human," possibly taking away a source of fascination for dilettantes and supermarket tabloids for 25 years. Michael Malin, principal investigator of the project, wrote in a 1995 paper that spending resources debunking the "Face on Mars" mythology was a waste of resources and scientific effort. Now the new photos show what he always expected. "I have no desire to discuss it with the true believers," he said. "They can't be convinced; they don't want to be convinced." The Viking 1 orbiter first photographed the hill on Mars in July 1976 as part of a search for landing sites. The image wasn't nearly as clear then. When the pictures came to Earth, NASA sent out the picture with a short press release: "The huge rock formation in the center, which resembles a human head, is formed by shadows giving the illusion of eyes, nose and mouth." Conspiracy theorists claimed the federal government plotted to withhold extraterrestrial evidence from the general public. Some people claimed the "face" was etched by an alien civilization. Last year's movie Mission To Mars used it as the backdrop for science fiction, making a hill on Mars the place where aliens blasted their genetic code to Earth billions of years ago. You've got bills
Users of America Online will pay more for it starting next month. The standard rate for AOL's Unlimited Use plan will jump $1.95 to $23.90 a month. Analysts say that about 22 million people will feel the increase. The price hike will make AOL among the most expensive dialup online services in the country. What customers receive for the extra money is the customized user interface that many find easy to use, along with some original content. Observers expect the lion's share of AOL users to stick around, since they pay a premium price now. The dot-com downturn has caused massive gloom about online advertising, and many companies are looking for ways to bring in more cash through subscription services. AOL's move may be part of that trend. Company spokesmen say the extra $500 million in revenue will help pay for the next software upgrade. At $23.90 a month for AOL, competing plans-ranging in price from free to $21.95 a month-start to look tempting. The NetZero service, for example, gives away up to 40 hours a month of free Internet access, though it requires an ongoing slide show of advertising on the user's screen. Among standard ISPs, Earthlink charges $19.95, Juno $14.95, and Microsoft's MSN and AT&T Worldnet cost $21.95 for unlimited service. Those with the need for speed can find cable and DSL lines that cost substantially more-if they are available in their neighborhood. For business and pleasure
Can a handheld computer be more than a business device? Sony calls its new Clie a "personal entertainment organizer." The device boasts a sharper screen and the features of handheld music players, possibly eliminating the need to carry around an extra gadget. Sony is trying to bring more multimedia into the personal digital assistant (PDA) world. The company has a long history with the most popular handheld electronic device ever-the Walkman-and wants to be a power in this new realm. The device lists for $499, which is at the high end of the market. The new Clie runs the Palm operating system and performs many of the usual PDA tasks. It has a control wheel on the side that lets users quickly flip through phone numbers, appointments, or other lists. It also has a battery that can handle 15 days of "standard use" (meaning not playing music). Through a program called PictureGear, users can compress photos and save them on the Clie. But the Clie has two big problems: It's expensive, and connectivity is difficult. A normal 56K modem is a $129.99 add-on-and nothing wireless is available. Compared to many other models, this is a drawback. The Clie is supposed to compete with the color handhelds made by Palm and Handspring's Visor line. It may not be immediately useful, but it shows where technology is headed. Instead of carrying several gizmos-a cell phone, handheld, and music player-one device will serve all needs.

'President Obama is right to set job creation and economic growth as top priorities, but wrong to advocate policies that would do the exact opposite. If his attack demonising the petroleum industry succeeds it will destroy jobs instead of creating them, raise costs for consumers instead of lowering them, and require billions of taxpayers dollars to fund unending subsidies for untested technologies unable to survive on their own.'
'It makes no sense to destroy existing jobs held by hard working Americans today in hopes of creating new jobs that may never materialise tomorrow. We need to grow our economy and increase the number of jobs, not simply try to shift jobs from one sector to another.'
'Throughout history, government efforts to create economic winners and losers, no matter how well intentioned, have been disappointments, and have been far less effective than the decisions consumers make with their buying power in a free market. Our nation should learn from the mistakes and failures of other nations that tried to control their economies.'
'America's petroleum refiners and petrochemical companies are high tech manufacturers that provide jobs for more than 2 million Americans directly and indirectly, make modern life possible and strengthen our economic and national security. We stand ready to help our nation and our fellow citizens return to prosperity.'

GE GSD4000RWW Review
Like other manufacturers, GE gives its dishwashers different model numbers -- and different prices -- for different colors. This model is white but also comes in black (GSD4000RBB) and more expensive stainless steel (GSD4060RSS). Although some people who posted GE GSD4000RWW reviews at Home Depot are happy with the dishwasher, many say it is a good choice only if your household is very small -- one or two people. It also gets mixed reviews for its cleaning ability. While many consumers find the noise level reasonable, a user who posted a review on the Abt website can't believe this dishwasher is marketed as quiet. At 61 decibels, it's slightly louder than a normal conversation. One consumer who posted a review at Home Depot suggests keeping the insulation blanket from your old dishwasher and using it in place of the one that comes with this cheap dishwasher.
Unlike some of the other dishwashers on our list, the GE GSD4000RWW (starting at $359) does not have a tall tub, which means less height in the lower rack. A tower in the middle of the rack also limits the space. This dishwasher lacks flexibility, with no folding tines and a stationary silverware caddy. It offers 10 cycles and options, including pots and pans, china and crystal, heavy wash, and rinse only. It also features a heated dry option, a high-temperature wash, and a two-, four- or eight-hour delay.
The few consumers who have posted GE GSD4000 dishwasher reviews on Epinions are uniformly unimpressed with it. It does not clean without pre-washing, they say, and failures of one part or another seem to be the order of the day. The GE GSD4000RWW is an affordable machine with lots of features, but with the mixed reviews and reports of malfunctions, we'll take a pass.

what version of imapsync? version 1.2 breaks --internaldates
$Id: imapsync,v 1.190 2006/11/11 00:13:15 gilles Exp gilles $
I am getting the same thing with imapsync, migrating from Exim to Zimbra, using v1.219 of imapsync. This doesn't occur on all attachments, just some of the larger ones.
I noticed the previously mentioned bug was closed, should a new one be created for this ?
Instead of making a mess of updates & edits, I am adding a new post.
The error:
Occurred on two e-mail messages. Both e-mails contain 3 PDF attachments of 14MB average each. The problem is not attachment size as I already updated zimbraFileUploadMaxSize to resolve an earlier problem I was having. Also there were some messages which synced fine with attachments + overhead totaling closer to 80MB.Code:
Couldn't append msg #1019 (Subject:[sanitized subject line]) to folder INBOX: 1221 NO APPEND failed
Let me know if I can provide anything more of use.
Are you seeing convertd-related errors in mailbox.log? If so, this may be an instance of bug 16041.
Right. Bug 16041 is what bit me. Turning off attachment indexing during the imapsync, and later re-indexing the affected mailboxes was an effective workaround.
That bug will be fixed in 5.0 beta3.
Great. Are any of those bug fixes going to be backported to a 4.5.x release ? There are several which have affected us lately which are slated for 5.0.
As for the convertd.log there were some errors but I am not sure if they were from the same timing or not. I suspect it is safe to assume they were, as the symptoms I expected are identical to what the other mentions in this thread covered.
Thanks again !

I am so frustrated with battles before bad! Help!
I am not sure how this happened, but now my son (22 months) is calling for me or his dad as soon as we leave him in his bed. or he would ask to use potty three times in three hours of this battle, or he would just cry. I try to ignore, or let him go potty, or give him his favorite toy, or take away few toys that he plays with in bed, and then I loose it sometimes ( I raise my voice with him, I walk away and cry helplessly, but I guess it does not help at all...But I have to get things done, an he is not going to sleep. If I fell asleep in his room, he would fall asleep with no problem. I pat his back - no problem again. He used to fall asleep on his own, but now...

my son is 21 months and he tries to talk or ask for things. I have learned not to talk so much to him when we are about to lie down and I shut the door until he is sleeping so he knows conversation is over. Also you cant talk to someone if they don't respond. It sounds cruel but you got to get up an start your day all over again so you need sleep too.posted 09/18/2012 by alexander121110
In a way he's manipulating you in order to procrastinate bed time and it sound to me like its working. Before bed give him a SMALL drink of water, have him go potty, and give kisses to everyone, and ask him what stuffed animal he would like to sleep with, tell him you are NOT coming in his room again and turn on a night light and say good night and do just that, he had a drink, he went potty and he said good night no need for him to be getting out of bed! IT WILL TAKE TIME but once he realizes that every night there is a routine and you are not going to come to him when he calls bed time will become a lot easier, if you fill frustrated go sit on the porch. It may take him quite a wile to fall asleep at first but it will get easier and easier each time... Good Luck!!posted 09/18/2012 by Lovebug_3

Quarterback Kevin Prince originally committed to Washington, but some gamesmanship from coach Rick Neuheisel convinced him to reconsider and eventually led him to play for the Bruins.
LOS ANGELES — So you wonder what happened to the depth behind Jake Locker, the Washington quarterback? Where is the insurance policy against unspeakable horrors, such as 0-12 seasons?
That guy is at UCLA, Kevin Prince, and if the Bruins' coaches are right, Prince's name is someday going to be uttered alongside the best of those in college football.
For now, he is due to be the starter for a UCLA team in its second year of the Rick Neuheisel regime, thanks partly to that old gamesmanship that was always inside Neuheisel, right to the bitter end in Seattle in 2003.
Prince is 6 feet 2 ½, 215 pounds, and he is said to be able to make all the throws.
- Seattle's vanishing black community
- Bellevue School District seeks to fire football coach Goncharoff over scandal
- Designed in Seattle, this $1 cup could save millions of babies
- Infections are the culprit in Alzheimer's disease, Harvard study suggests
- 1,000 fraternity, sorority members trash Lake Shasta campsite

Two years ago, he tore up a knee in his first game at Crespi Carmelite High School in Encino, Calif., but that didn't deter the Huskies from targeting him.
"I just fell in love with coach Willingham and his staff," Prince said recently on the UCLA campus of former UW coach Tyrone Willingham. "The Seattle area, the school, the campus, the stadium, was magnificent. It was where I felt comfortable."
It says something about the tepid capabilities of Karl Dorrell's old staff at UCLA that the Bruins hadn't easily nailed down Prince, who grew up a fan of the school his father and uncle each attended.
"Something just didn't feel right," Prince said. "It just kind of felt like, if they wanted me to be their guy, they would have kind of been out there more and said it more. As a quarterback, that's kind of where you want it to be."
So Prince committed to the Huskies. It was before the holidays, so he "asked for a bunch of Washington stuff for Christmas."
But then the vibrant Neuheisel was hired to replace Dorrell, and a week before signing date the quarterback was called out of class to the football office. He found Neuheisel standing at a dry-erase board.
There, Neuheisel penned three columns, one with three lines, one with five and one with six. In a game of eliminating the lines, one by one, the object is to saddle your opponent with erasing the last one.
"He said if he could beat me 10 times in a row, that I'd have to consider going to UCLA," Prince said with a grin.
Sure enough, Prince lost 10 straight to Neuheisel, who knew the secret to the game. And a week later, Prince was a Bruin.
"I didn't want to hurt anybody's feelings in Washington or anything," Prince said. "I just had to do what was best for me."
The Bruins redshirted Prince in 2008 while Neuheisel suffered with poor Kevin Craft, who threw a school-record 20 passes that were intercepted, fueling an incessant loop of TV clips of an exasperated Neuheisel gesticulating and jawing at Craft.
Of course, UCLA wasn't very good at anything offensively, finishing 116th nationally in rushing.
"It's tough to watch a fellow teammate go through something like that, to be put through so much ridicule," Prince said. "If you watch the game films, he gets annihilated, and time after time after time, he just gets up."
Craft is still around, but he is third string. The job is Prince's.
"He's very composed, wise beyond his years," Neuheisel said. "I believe he's going to give us a chance to exploit all portions of the field."
A better ground game would help Prince, and versatile back Christian Ramirez returns after sitting out 2008 for academic reasons.
The defense should be good, although depth has taken a hit with knee injuries in camp to two backups. But there are few better tackles than Brian Price, and there is high quality in linebacker Reggie Carter and cornerback Alterraun Verner.
As for Prince, he is waiting for another shot at his coach in that game he calls "Sticks."
"I've been practicing, by the way," he said. "I'm waiting for the perfect time to challenge coach Neuheisel. But don't tell him I said that."

Letter from Italy
I got a lot of notes regarding my screed against the Democrats ("Spank the Donkey," November 27), but my favorite was this guileless, impassioned letter from a reader in Italy who wondered why this country has never developed a national healthcare system. It was too long for the Letters page, so I'm publishing the exchange here.
Subj: Recipe for sure victory for DEMS! A winning strategy in five easy points and a short necessary premise
Ciao Perry,
I am an Italian writing to you from Italy proper and I hope you can answer to this letter as I am hugely curious about it.
The basic difference between Europe (and Canada) and the States is, at a mass level, the lack of universal health care (at a moral level, capital punishment). Now my question is: Has America ever held a poll to check if every single American knows that every European/Canadian citizen has health care? How is it possible that a politician pushing for national health care on the Canadian model or the model of, say, France or Germany, doesn't win elections automatically? I mean any American politician might prove, with indisputable data in his own hands, that the Canadian/European models are the only ones truly providing health care for everybody (the Italian constitution itself says that every citizen has a right to health care), and that the only way to truly have universal health care is to have a strong government role and to mandate by law that every citizen must have health coverage.
So why is it that left-liberal politicians (however few they may be) don't bombard every American with the notion that in Europe and Canada, health care for everybody is just taken for granted? Why don't they bombard them with the fact that both the right and the left support it (Michael Moore did it in Bowling for Columbine, but it's such a rare voice), that it's a politically non-controversial point, just an obvious thing for civilized people! The only political differences may vary on how much citizens should receive from the health care system, but no one could dispute the fact that every single citizen should receive all basic medical needs and that such a fact must be recognized by law. Americans should be bombarded with facts like this: Even Margaret Thatcher (so close to Reagan) never dared touch the British national health service! Any European politician, even the conservative Berlusconi, would be politically dead if he pushed for the dreaded American profit-based system!
So the question to be put to voters should be: How is it possible that such an obvious goal becomes controversial and is said to be unaffordable, when America is obviously richer than say, Greece or Portugal or even France? More to the point, you say that Democrats know that but they don't want to lose the money of private financiers; that's right, but the first goal of a politician (particularly a candidate for president) should be to win. And I think every politician proposing universal health care on the basis of real experiences (Europe, Canada, and Australia for the past half century!) should be quite able to do that based on the following points:
1. What could a Republican say? Canada is a myth? France, Germany, Spain, all of Scandinavia, don't exist? Of course he could not deny that!
2. So what would a Republican say: Those other countries are richer? Of course they can't say that! Or: Yes, they are poorer but they spend less on defense? True, but false in its implication, as America is (on per capita income) much, much richer than many European countries, so that is not enough to justify its lack of universal health care! Furthermore, Americans already spend the same amount of money (or more) privately as Europeans and Canadians spend through health care taxes, so it's not a matter of money anyway!
3. How could a Republican say that every Greek resident can afford basic health care, but not every American citizen? I mean, any debate on these points should be immediately winnable, as Republicans could not deny facts!
4. A Republican might say: Yes, but the quality of health care in these countries is lower. Bull! First, quality in Canada and many European countries is good, and second, the main point is that the Canadian and European models bring patients out of the jungle by giving basic care to each and everyone as a citizen's birthright, as obvious as breathing. These systems save people from any chance of being bankrupted by health care costs, or suffering horrible things like having to sell their houses, etc. These things just never happen in the rest of the western world!
5. Finally, a (rare) Republican might say: Yes, we want universal health care, but just by tampering with the current model. Bull! Any adversary might easily reply that this system has always failed to give health care to all. You have to radically change it!
Again, based on real facts, on obvious facts, every American should be bombarded with the notion that health care need not be a problem. They should be told it's inconceivable in Europe that you could lose your job and then, double whammy, your health coverage too--that's akin to the law of the jungle! Politicians running on this platform should win at every level, both congressional and presidential.
Even you on the left, I think, fail to recognize (being born in the States) how uncivilized America, with its millions of citizens lacking health care, looks to other western people. I think by drilling the notion into American heads that much poorer capitalist nations give health care to everybody, you would get millions of votes (the same kind of popular mass vote as for FDR). Any politician should appreciate that. But in their dependence on corporate money, they still appreciate dollars more than votes.
Please, when you give this European letter to Democrats all over, remember that I helped give America finally that obvious goal of universal health care!
Paolo De Falco
Dear Paolo,
You have no idea how scandalous this letter of yours will sound to some American ears. First, everything you say is true. The popular appeal of political campaigns built on national health care would be enormous. Promoted the right way--in clear, unapologetic terms that portray private healthcare companies as the profiteers and empire builders they are--such a platform would sweep the country.
Why doesn't it happen? Lots of reasons. The whole political culture of America after World War II has conspired against popular impulses like universal health care. The commie witch hunts and ceaseless red-baiting of the cold war years kept lefties, liberals, and small-d democrats in America from pursuing the sorts of measures their counterparts in other Western countries were undertaking. While Europe and Canada were creating programs like national health, American politicians were busy scaring the public about creeping socialism in all its guises. Then, too, racism has always been a useful lever for dividing America's have-nots when they get unruly. And our education system has done its part. As the late, great political critic Walter Karp once wrote, "What the public schools practice with remorseless proficiency...is the prevention of citizenship and the stifling of self-government. When 58 percent of the thirteen-year-olds tested by the National Assessment for Educational Progress think it is against the law to start a third party in America, we are dealing not with a sad educational failure but with a remarkably subtle success."
Personally, I believe a great many Americans are ready to shed those old clothes and swim off into uncharted waters. They feel lost and betrayed and their allegiance is up for grabs. The main barrier to reaching them with a message like yours is money. Have you ever stopped to ask yourself why both of America's major parties vehemently oppose changing a system of campaign finance that costs them exorbitant and constantly escalating sums? This is an important question, so it needs defusing. The talking heads on TV flap their gums about it endlessly. It's always the same: "Politicians are greedy!" one will say. "No, no," his "opponent" then objects. "The real trouble is, the parties always get caught up in partisan bickering." And so on.
None of the commentators ever draws the obvious conclusion regarding money and politics: Democrats and Republicans don't want to change the present system precisely because it sets a high price for participating and thereby ensures that no idea distasteful to the parties' owners and managers will ever get a hearing in the court of public opinion. Careers in politics have to be prohibitively expensive, or the wrong sorts of people will get in the game. You can scoff at the perversity of this system all you like; the point is that it works very well for the people who control it.

I need a way to store several images in one/two (some projects seems to us an index too) for both .NET and java. The file-format needs to be easy to decompress (I'm planing to do so on android).
And also, for each file I need to be able to store the following metadata: file-index, name, md5-checksum.
Also, the footprint of the framework should not be to big.
And last, if you got any simple solutions to the problem, I don't need a framework, but could with some guidance probably code it myself.
Thank you.

Hi all,
So I want to install new disc brakes on my Cannondale F900 and get rid of (for obvious reasons) the coda hydraulics that are currently installed. I'm wondering if there are any other types of disc brakes that I can install while keeping my Headshok Fatty DL Disc-Specific fork and Coda Expert Front/Rear Disc hubs. I have not been able to find any disc brakes that have the same 4-bolt rotor pattern.
If this is impossible, then can anybody suggest a cheap hub/disc brake combo that will allow me to get rid of these @*^& Codas?
Thank you!

Correct me if I am wrong, but when Chizik left ISU and went to Auburn while choosing not to retain CPR. This choice allowed CPR to come to Iowa State and give us what we have now.
I know alot of ISU fans have more hatred for Chizik because of how he left, but I am one that would say thanks to him for leaving and allowing a coach he choose not to retain to come to ISU to finish the job that he could not do.
Really another thread on Chizik? Get over it people.
We're all thankful that he left, but that doesn't mean we can't hate him for being so crappy when he was here?
Agree, everyone is happier now with the outcomes. We'd rather have Rhoads, and Gene would rather not be here. Plus he did bring in some good players and leave us in an OK position to achieve what we have the last two years.

Train services remained affected across the northern states today due to poor visibility with Railways rescheduling departure timings of about 50 trains leaving from the city.
The rescheduling came as close to 100 trains arrived here several hours behind schedule, some late by even a day.
The rescheduled trains included the Rajdhani and Duronto trains mostly bound for the eastern states, said a Northern Railway spokesperson.
The long delays and the change of departure timings caused inconvenience to passengers, especially to those who had to catch connecting trains from the city to carry on with their further journey.
The spokesperson said even as the foggy conditions subsides, it will take at least two to three days for normalcy to return.
Apart from the Rajdhanis, the late incoming trains today included the Shiv Ganga express from Varanasi, Magadh express from Islampur, the Amritsar Shatabdi express, Mahabodhi express from Gaya, Bihar Sampark Kranti express from Darbhanga, Farakka express from Malda Town and a special train from Patna which was running late by more than a day.
