Bayern's Ribery still two months from comeback
Injured Bayern Munich winger Franck Ribery is still at least two months away from a return to full fitness, according to club director Karl-Heinz Rummenigge.
France international Ribery tore ligaments just above his left ankle during his country's 2-0 defeat to Italy in Euro 2008 and underwent surgery soon after.
The 25-year-old will now have a second operation to remove metal plates from the ankle and faces eight weeks of intensive rehabilitation to get fit before he can make a return to the Bayern fold.
'He will undergo a second operation so that the screw in his ankle can be withdrawn,' Rummenigge told French newspaper L'Equipe.
'Then eight weeks of rehabilitation is initially envisaged and should be sufficient before he makes his return to competition.'
Ribery signed for Bayern in the summer of 2007 after joining for a record 25 million euro fee and was instrumental in the club's league and cup double.
Meanwhile, striker Luca Toni has admitted the club is not strong enough to challenge for the Champions League.
The Bundesliga side will launch a fresh assault on Europe's premier club competition after winning the German league and cup double last season.
But Italy striker Toni feels Jurgen Klinsmann's squad still needs strengthening before Bayern can compete for the trophy.
He told Munich-based newspaper tz: 'In order to win the Champions League you of course need luck.
'But you also have to be honest and say that on paper there are stronger teams than us.
'I believe if you want to be at the head of the top competitions, you need 15, 16 top players in all areas. We have to be well equipped in all positions, with really strong players.'

'Operation Air, Land and Speed' targets hundreds of miles of Virginia interstate
Drivers on three major Virginia highways should expect a larger-than-usual Virginia State Police presence this weekend.
Troopers will step up patrols along I-95, I-81 and I-64 through Sunday night, conducting roaming patrols and stationary radar on over 700 miles of highway. It marks the first time that state police will incorporate the entire each of the nearly 300 miles of I-64.
"When our visibility is increased along targeted interstates, we know drivers pay attention to obeying speed limits, drunk drivers are caught and aggressive driving is deterred," says Colonel W. Steven Flaherty, Virginia State Police Superintendent.
The initiative is part of the Virginia State Police's "Operation Air, Land and Speed." The last time it was undertaken on I-64 in December 2010, 3,452 summonses and arrests were made. This past May, 6,400 summonses and arrests were made during increased patrols on I-81 and I-95.

The Greatest American Sailor contest staged by US Sailing over the last couple months was an interesting idea.
Sixty-four of the nation's top competition sailors were seeded and placed into a bracket that was styled after the NCAA basketball tournament.
US Sailing then set up a website where people could vote on-line. Each week, votes were cast for a round with the fields being reduced to 32, 16, eight, four, two and finally the "Greatest American Sailor."
Voters were allowed to cast only one vote a week, although that meant voting for 32 skippers the first week, 16 the second . . . all the way down to the championship match last week.
With help from a late push by San Diego voters – triggered in part by two UT-San Diego stories and a television report – Dennis Conner was named "The Greatest American Sailor," winning the title by a 60-40 margin over Buddy Melges. More than 2,600 votes were cast.
Personally, I have no problem with the outcome. The best sailor won.
However, it would have been interesting to see what the final vote would have been had Lowell North defeated Melges in the semifinals – setting up an all-San Diego Conner vs. North finals.
Conner's resume goes well beyond his four America's Cup wins. He also won three Southern Ocean Racing Conference titles, skippered a boat in the Whitbread Around The World race, won two Congressional Cup match racing title and was a champion in a variety of one-design classes. The depth, variety and weight of his victories are second to none.
But North is an icon, who is known as both as champion on the water and a visionary off it. A perfectionist, North created the North Sails empire while winning Olympic gold and bronze medals, four Star Worlds titles and placing second in five other Star Worlds.
North is also a beloved figure who has long held a special spot in the hearts of the West Coast sailing community. Many view North as the greatest sailor who ever lived. In the 1950s and '60s, North took on the sport's eastern establishment and won.
It would have been interesting to see how the local votes would split in a Conner vs. North match. Both, plus Melges, were members of the inaugural class inducted into the National Sailing Hall of Fame inducted during ceremonies at San Diego Yacht Club last year.
Conner probably would have gotten the nod based on hard facts and achievements. But other factors could have pushed North over the top. Votes from this Mecca of sailing would have been split.
The other intriguing fact about the "Greatest American Sailor" contest was how the bracket, which was drawn by a panel of sailing experts, showed just how strong the sport is in San Diego.
Three of the four No. 1 seeds were San Diegans – Conner, North and Mark Reynolds. Melges was the fourth.
Ten of the 64 spots in the field went to San Diegans. In addition to the three No. 1 seeds, the field included Robbie Haines, Peter Isler, Vince Brun, J.J. Fetter, Bill Hardesty, Malin Burnham and George Szabo.
San Diego Yacht & Boat Show
The National Marine Manufacturers Association has taken over the production of the annual San Diego Yacht and Boat Show, which will be held at the Sheraton Marina on Harbor Island July 26-29.
The NMMA formerly ran the annual Boat Show at the Convention Center each January. The San Diego Yacht & Boat Show started eight years ago and features a variety of in-the-water displays as well as dockside exhibits.
Although yachts up to 80 feet are featured in the show's in-the-water exhibit, the show includes everything from paddle sports to kayaks, to ski and wakeboard boats to luxury yachts.
Villwock triumphs
Dave Villwock last Sunday won his 10th Gold Cup at Detroit, Mich., which doubled to the opener of the Unlimited Hydroplane season. Steve David's Oh Boy! Oberto was second to Villwoock's Spirit of Qatar.

They Might Be Giants Releases Three New Vids [Videos]
They Might Be Giants have been molding, changing and evolving their sound for more than 30 years. They've released more than 16 albums and are responsible for one of the greatest TV theme songs, like, ever.
The duo is getting ready to celebrate its past decade with a new compilation album, 'Idlewild,' on May 27.
So, the two Johns, who've been doing fan interactivity since they ran the Dial-A-Song telephone call-in tune out of their apartment in the mid '80s, enlisted fans to make a new video for the song 'Am I Awake?'
They received more than 150 entries, and the top three have just been unveiled, including 'Murderous Puppet Typewriters,' featuring an animated one-eyed character and his hungry typewriter. You can see that video, by Jack Fields, above.
The other winning videos feature a couple rolling around uncomfortably in bed to the beat of the song, and a black-and-white TV set showing news anchors mouthing the words to 'Am I Awake?' You can see those videos below.

This was a very tasty lunch. The 3 of us ate for $23 with two having the jambalaya and one had the bumble bee stew (see picture). The entrees are rated by spiciness - the jambalaya level one and the bumble bee stew level three. Both were delicious. The bumble bee stew had a nice kick. We'd definitely eat here again when in the area. The parking nearby in the parking ramps are expensive- $12 for an hour, so if you can find on street or take public transit.
Love this restaurant. Menu is clearly marked for GF items. The staff could not have been nicer and really made us feel like appreciated customers. I'd recommend the white bean chili if you can handle spicy. My husband and son enjoyed the red beans and rice and jambalaya.
Very tasty fast food type of place!
Very good and helpful for gluten free folks!!
Awesome! Many choices. It is like chipotle with your topping (stew, jambalaya, chicken...) on top of rice. Ask for samples! Staff was great.
Wow, we drove 15 minutes out of out way to pick up food from here and it was worth it. Amazingly delicious vegetarian and meat gumbos and stews. I would eat here every day if I could.
I highly recommend this place. I always get the voodoo chicken and bumble bee stew side by side in the same bowl with all the toppings. Its fantastic!
Excellent taste and very friendly. They were very helpful with GF and clearly identify which. Make sure you say it right away as they do have some items that are not GF.
7 of us went in for supper with 4 celiacs. We got samples to pick who was best for each of us. The food was wonderful! The staff was educated and very helpful.
Excellent food, very helpful with making GF choices. I'm not GF but wife and son are. Bumblebee Stew was GF and sinfully good. Wish we had one in NJ. Highly recommend.
Great good! There's a gluten free menu. Fast service also

Yum! I've been here a few times this year and have not had a reaction. I am Celiac.
8603 Citadel Way, Louisville, KY 40220
The only item I felt safe ordering was the jambalaya. Mine had more chicken than sausage, my friends had more sausage than chicken. It was a bit drier than what I recall from my trip in New Orleans. It was tasty, but I won't be going out of my way to return.
12911 Cantrell Rd, Little Rock, AR 72223
Great food. Quick service. I found J. Gumbo's on the app. I'm glad I tried it. In addition to gluten allergies I also have egg and shellfish allergies. The manager Brandon made sure to listen to my needs. He assured me that they take care to keep the allergens seperated from the rest. They had numerous GF options too. Very impressed.

Super good food! Had no issues what so ever and the menu is very clearly labeled!
10 St Francis Way #10, Cranberry Twp, PA 16066
GF marked items. Individual serving spoons. Low possibility of cross contamination. Tortilla chips aren't marked GF but owner brought out box to allow me to check ingredients, and they are safe. Will return for sure.
64 Granville St, Gahanna, OH 43230
their options are clearly labeled on the menu and their nutritional facts are clear online.
12911 Cantrell Rd, Little Rock, AR 72223
great when you need a quick gf meal
12911 Cantrell Rd, Little Rock, AR 72223
My family of 4 stopped in and they had 6 gluten free options marked clearly on the menu. We chose three, plus some nachos. The food portions were huge, the flavor was delicious, and the price point was amazing! I would recommend it to anyone. In fact, next time we are driving through the area, my sister and I agreed that we would go and get take out just to heat up later- it's that good. Gluten free Cajun is HARD to find! :-) it is an open kitchen, so I couldn't recommend for celiacs, but my concern would be minimal considering the nature of the food.

Yummy GF Options

Excellent choice of cajun meals, and their menu specifies what is gluten free!

Excellent food. Staff knowledge about gluten free products.
879 W Galbraith Rd, Cincinnati, OH 45231
The menu at J Gumbo's was fantastic, if it was gluten free it would have a little sign saying GF. The service is great and the people are understanding. Great place to eat!
879 W Galbraith Rd, Cincinnati, OH 45231
Service its great and food its amazing! Gf foods are marked on the menu boards and they have tortilla chips you can get instead of bread or cornbread!

The latest business news, reviews, features and whitepapers
With a touchscreen LCD and sleek styling, this MFP looks good and delivers nice output for light-volume home or student users.
The first thing you'll notice about the $169 HP Photosmart 6510 e-All-in-One color inkjet multifunction printer is that it looks better than the competition. But it's also a good printer, with first-rate output quality and better-than-average print speeds, though ink costs are just average.
The Photosmart 6510's good looks are partly due to its 3.45-inch touchscreen control panel. The screen is large enough to read and tap easily, too, making the unit as a whole very easy to use. Connectivity falls a bit short: You'll find only SD and Memory Stick card slots behind a front panel, and the machine has no USB/PictBridge port--an unusual omission. The MFP does support USB and Wi-Fi, though, and the installation routine is concise.
HP's bundled software for the Photosmart 6510 is simple to use and supports all of the unit's capabilities, including scanning and copying. It also allows you to scan from the control panel to a PC or a Mac, even if you're using Wi-Fi; some competing models require a USB connection for this function. The Photosmart 6510 supports HP's Web-based apps and remote Web printing, as well as local printing via Wi-Fi from Android and iOS devices.
Paper-handling features for the Photosmart 6510 are fine for low-volume printing and the occasional scan. The 80-page paper cassette has an integrated 20-sheet photo tray. The output tray holds 50 sheets, and the MFP offers automatic duplexing (two-sided printing). You don't get an automatic document feeder here, but you can find an ADF on a slightly higher-priced cousin, the Photosmart 7510. Unfortunately, HP seems to have abandoned the notion that users will ever scan anything thicker than a letter: None of the Photosmart units we've tested have a telescoping lid to facilitate the scanning of pages from magazines or books.
The Photosmart 6510's ink costs are merely average. The standard black cartridge costs $18 and lasts for 250 pages (7.2 cents per page), while the standard cyan, magenta, and yellow color cartridges cost $17 each and last for 300 pages, or 5.7 cents per page. That's about 25 cents for a four-color page. You can reduce the color ink costs appreciably with the XL cartridges, which are $27 for 750 pages, or 3.6 cents per page--almost two cents per page cheaper per color. However, the $34 XL black lasts for only 550 pages, or 6.2 cents per page, only a cent less than the standard black.
In our tests, the Photosmart 6510 posted average to slightly above-average print and scan speeds. Text and monochrome graphics exited at a sprightly 7.7 pages per minute on the PC and 7.2 ppm on the Mac--nearly a page per minute faster than the median rate. A half-page photo printed at a slightly above-average rate of about 3.16 ppm, while the same image printed at a slightly below-average rate of about 1 ppm to glossy photo paper. Single-page copies came out around the norm at 3 ppm. Full-page photos printed on the Mac arrived at a rate of about 0.4 ppm--a bit slower than average.
Output from the Photosmart 6510 is very good. At standard settings, text appears sharp and black, though color graphics tend to be a little grainy on plain paper. The color palette overall has a slight lean toward yellow, giving graphics a warm and friendly, if not completely accurate, vibe. On glossy photo paper, color graphics show considerable detail in dark areas and are overall quite nice, with the same warm color scale.
There's no doubt that the HP Photosmart 6510 will look better on your desk than most competitors will. Beyond that, the output is quite good, and the MFP is easy to operate. If your scanning needs are minimal--meaning, the lack of an ADF and a telescoping scanner lid won't disturb you--the Photosmart 6510 is a good choice for the price.

In 1968, the California Legislature enacted the California Public Records Act (CPRA) under Government Code (GC) sections 6250-6270. In its findings and declarations, mindful of the right of individuals' privacy, the Legislature declared it was the publics right to access information concerning the peoples business.
As defined in the Public Records Act, GC 6252 "public records include any writing containing information relating to the conduct of the public's business prepared, owned, used or retained by any state or local agency regardless of physical form or characteristics"
Based on this definition, the report of crimes and incidents written in the course of business of a law enforcement agency are public records and subject to release under CPRA with some exemptions.
Any person can make a Public Records request. However public disclosure is regulated by several different statutes dependent upon on the record. Such resources are Government Code 6250 et .seq. and 34090.6, Welfare and Institutions Code 827, California Vehicle Code 20012, Penal Code 841.5, 293, 11167.5 and 13300.
The law requires law enforcement agencies to provide information the public has the right to know and at the same time, to withhold information if the release would jeopardize an individual's right to privacy. All agency records not exempted by statutory of case law are available. Certain records or portions of records are subject to privacy laws and/or other exemptions and are rarely ever available for viewing. Common public records requests are for:
It is the responsibility of the law enforcement agencies to allow the public access to certain information obtained during the normal course of daily business. Law Enforcement personnel must be aware of and apply the legal exemptions to the release of some information to protect individual privacy, safety and reputation.
GC 6254 specifies exemptions in order to balance the individual's right to privacy with the public's need for information. Items that will most likely be redacted from Pasadena Police Department public records are:
A public records request for information from the Pasadena Police Department can be started by contacting the Pasadena Police Department's Strategic Service Division Commander at 744– 4523 or online.

I know that I already professed my love for Autumn in my last blogpost but let's go straight for round two shall we?
Over the last couple of weeks, the weather in Glasgow has been surprisingly delightful; very cold but dry and often sunny. If I was to add another point to the things I love the most about Autumn, a crisp and light morning will be on top of the list.
The leaves are hitting the ground creating a wonderful rug of oranges hues on the still deep green grass.
Those seasonal colours have definitely been inspiring my wardrobe choices lately, as this OOTD proves.
On this beautiful Sunday morning my friend and I took a stroll around the West End of Glasgow and ended up taking those pictures in the beautiful University of Glasgow. Although I studied here for 2 years, I still find myself taken aback by the sheer beauty of the place (Hogwarts anyone?!).
I might appear slightly weird on this one, but I absolutely LOVE transitionning from one season to another and get genuinely excited at the prospect of rummaging my closet to sort out and find the summer pieces I could still incorporate in my autumnal wardrobe.
On that occasion it was my long sleeve Uniqlo striped shirt (you can find a similar one here); it seems I cannot get enough of this piece as I wear it literally ALL. THE. TIME! I won't be breaking any news by affirming it is a timeless staple.
The rest of the outfit consist entirely of new additions to my wardrobe, but with almost all of them being Primark pieces do not fear breaking the bank!
Suede skirt are massively in this season, and this little number only cost me £8! I especially love the front gold zipper detail.
Oversized scarves are a must during Autumn/Winter in my opinion, and this beige hued piece also from Primark will keep me extra warm on those chilly mornings!
Hello bargain! How GORGEOUS are those ankle boots?! I picked them up from Miss KG on sale in House of Fraser and were reduced from £100 to £59! The heel is definitely quite high but surprisingly very comfortable to walk in! As with the skirt, the gold detailing is a big bonus for me.
Accessories wise, I am wearing a marbled necklace and pearls hoops from Forever 21, and a collection of various rings from H&M.
Finally, let's talk about what is for me the star of the show; this beautiful deep forest green structured bag. I find it very Celinesque chic in appearance, with its upper handle and long strap, and the size of it is absolutely perfect for me.
Looking at it, I bet you would not guess it comes from … Primark! At £9, I'm calling it my best autumnal bargain yet.
What is your favorite outfit at the moment? Comment below!

Cleveland (Oct. 31)
Zionists at Cleveland Conference Renew Faith in Palestine Work; Old Guard Rallies; Raise $300,000 in Cash for Immediate Needs of Palestine Executive; Dr. Wise Stirs Conference with Severe Critcism of Zionist Leadership and British Government; Breakdown of Zionist Machinery Must be Averted; Wise's Break with Weizmann Policy Seen; Conference Embodies Sentiment in Appeal to British Government; Lipsky, Szold, Magnes, Mack, Rothenberg State Views: Judge Lewis Relected National Chairman. (Jewish Daily Bulletin)
The Old Guard of the Zionist movement rallied to the support of the Palestine cause, undertook to raise an amount of $7,500,000, the equivalent of last year's quota, as American Jewry's contribution this year for the Palestine funds, and reintroduced a spirit of confidence in the future of the work in a series of spontaneous actions and resolutions at the National Conference on Palestine held at the Hotel Statler here.
The renewed confidence was backed up by raising an amount exceeding $300,000 from among the delegates on account of unpaid pledges in the various regions and communities, as well as advances on contributions to this year's campaign. The amounts will be paid in before January 1 in order to enable the new Jerusalem Executive to assume its task.
Morris Weinberg of New York led the guarantors with the sum of $50,000, Dr. Joseph Krimsky with the sum of $25,000 and the Zionist leaders of Cleveland with $25,000 in the action to secure the sum of a quarter of a million dollars asked by Louis Lipsky in an impassioned plea to enable the United Palestine Appeal to remit its monthly minimum quota of $100,000 to the Jerusalem Executive.
This action was taken by the National Conference on Palestine, the third of its kind called to inaugurate and stimulate the American collections for the Palestine work. About 300 delegates mainly from Mid-Western cities were in attendance. The four sessions were presided over by Morris Rothenberg, Judge William M. Lewis, Louis Lipsky and Rabbi Solomon Goldman.
American Zionists launched this year's campaign after listening to the lashing criticism of Dr. Stephen S. Wise who, terming it "self criticism," was unsparing with regard to the policies and the execution of these policies by the Zionist leadership and by the British government as the mandatory power for Palestine. A break down of the machinery of the Zionist movement was the result of these policies, Dr. Wise stated.
The Zionist cause cannot fail, Judge Julian W. Mack exclaimed in urging the delegates to "right the wrongs and errors, both in the Zionist leadership and in its following." Judge Mack, however, added that this determination should not in any way lead to a feeling of dejection but rather to a strengthened effort to continue the up-building of Palestine.
A resolution in this spirit, calling the attention of the Britsh Government to this feeling prevalent among American Zionists, was adopted at the closing session when the new national administration for the United Palestine Appeal was chosen. Dr. Stephen S. Wise was elected honorary chairman of the Appeal, Judge William M. Lewis was re-elected national chairman, Judge Mitchell May and Justice Gustave Hartman were chosen vice-chairmen.
The resolution formulating the views of the U.P.A. contributors on the Palestine situation read: "The United Palestine Appeal conference, representing all forces of American Jewry engaged in the building of the Jewish National Home sends its greetings to the British Government, and expresses its appreciation of the efforts of that government to cooperate with the Jewish people in that historic task.
"The United Palestine Appeal, as the fund raising institution of American Jewry for the reconstruction of Palestine, is responsible to its constituency for the most effective use of the funds which are raised for the sole purpose of building the Jewish National Home.
"It is the unanimous conviction of this conference that the effective use of these funds in the sense designated depends in a decisive measure upon the interpretation which the administration of Palestine, under the instructions of the British Government, gives to the contents of the Balfour Declaration as incorporated in the mandate for Palestine and in particular to that section of it in which the British government is pledged to facilitate the creation in Palestine of a Jewish National Home.
"It is further the unanimous opinion of this conference that the administration of Palestine has not answered to this purpose in the full sense implied by the Balfour Declaration and in particular this conference draws the attention of the British Government to the systems of land taxation and tariff regulation now obtaining in Palestine. This conference declares that these systems constitute a severe and unwarranted burden upon the creative agricultural colonizing elements of the country and a direct discouragement to industrial enterprise.
"This conference invites the attention of the British government to the manifest contradiction which, in the opinion of this conference, exists between this state of affairs and the intention of the British government to facilitate the creation in Palestine of a Jewish Natonal Home. This conference further expresses its earnest conviction that the British government, desirous of giving full play to those creative forces which are engaged in the reconstruction of the Jewish homeland, will take immediate steps to remove these obstacles which now tend to obstruct their advance," the resolution concludes.
City Manager Hopkins welcomed the delegates in behalf of the City of Cleveland. Major Chisholm, British Consul General here, greeted the gathering in behalf of Sir Esme Howard, British Ambassador in Washington.
Zionist workers and contributors to the United Palestine Appeal were acquainted with present-day realities in the Zionist movement and the Palestine situation in a stirring address delivered by Dr. Stephen S. Wise at the Sunday morning session.
Great Britain has failed to "facilitate," as it pledged itself in the Balfour Declaration the creation of a Jewish National Home in Palestine: the former Zionist Executive in Jerusalem, turn by groups and factions, was guilty of mismanagement, leading to loss of Zionist credit: the Zionist Executive in London failed to present the just demands for the Zionist movement and a breakdown of the machinery of the Zionist movement has resulted. These were the outstanding contentions made by Dr. Wise in his address which raised the temperature of the conference to a high pitch of political excitement. Being an echo of the Weizmann Wise controversy at Basle, the speech was regarded as a declaration of Dr. Wise's break with the Weizmann policy.
"I do not threaten to leave, but I do threaten to stay in the Zionist movement and to fight," Dr. Wise declared. He added that the acknowledgment of Zionist realities cannot in any way permit the Zionists to throw up their hands but must continue raising funds for the Palestine work. "We know the worst; we confess to the worst, but will continue to go ahead not under a new leadership but under leadership; we will not permit a default of the responsibility. Dabber El B'nai Israel Wissaoa–Speak to the children of Israel and let them go forward," Dr. Wise exclaimed.
Dr. Wise declared that even if he knew he stands alone he would say the things he must say today. Comparing the large number of delegates attending the first U.P.A. conference in Baltimore two years ago with the smaller number in Cleveland, he stated that instead of multitudes he now observes fewer numbers. Although he speaks for himself he is of the belief that the opinions he expresses are the opinions of the vast majority of American Zionists and also many thousand Zionists in Europe. Self-criticism is no defeatism, he stated.
Dr. Wise said he had the right to take this attitude since he has always been a supporter and friend of the British Government.
He related the content of his conversation with Lord Balfour in December American Jewish Congress of the resolution urging Great Britain to assume the protectorate over Palestine. Balfour had tears in his eyes when he heard of this resolution. "What a taken of confidence," Balfour exclaimed to Dr. Wise.
The speaker then related the details of the incident between him and Dr. Weizmann in Basle concerning the resolution introduced into the political commission of the Zionist Congress asking for the appointment of a committee under Weizmann's chairmanship to negotiate with the British government concerning political questions. "We can be stifled, suppressed and exiled in Basle, but we can speak our mind in America," Dr. Wise declared.
It is unthinkable to leave the presentation of the just demands of the Zionist movement to one man who is a British subject and whose attitude must naturally be different from the attitude of a committee, including representatives from

Does this mean the rest including his rival are-wallboard or wallpaper? They seem to amount to as much. Rand is much like his father, who years before the financial meltdown predicted it, as well as this country's addiction to debt via the Federal Reserve. Ron Paul is introducing a bill to audit the Fed's holding of the nation's gold which hasn't been done. I think I'd like to see if it still exist, you? I think being " off the wall" really means not being another corporate owned drone of a representative. I like that.

The tax cuts you are talking about expiring are for the super wealthy. Are you the super wealthy? didn't think so, but the right wing sure has you convinced that their issues are your issues, don't they? The vast majority of scientists believe in global warming. When you get your degrees in the field, then maybe I will listen to you. How do people go about so full of ignorance?

Okay, lesson time just wondering:
The Bush tax rates that are about to expire are BREAKS FOR THE WEALTHIEST AMERICANS. They SHOULD expire so that the WEALTHIEST Americans (those making more than $250,000) will be taxed at a higher rate. FoxNews wants it to sound like OMG OBAMA IS GOING TO RAISE TAXES!! But the fact of the matter is he is trying to help the middle class by making those that earn more, pay more. Common sense stuff.
Bush put those "breaks" in so that FoxNews could shout from the rooftops that he was slashing taxes. Well, he was, but for the ultra rich. Wake up people.
#36 Oct 1, 2010
And when that idiot Rand Paul says he will quit taking federal dollars in his medical practice then he can preach to the rest of us about the need to cut back on the federal government programs. Wake up.

People always vote for the candidate giving them the most handouts.
In a laissez-faire economy and a society in which everyone operates based on their own selfish interests, EVERYONE would benefit.
Competition cannot exist in this hybrid of Corporatism/Socialism economy that we have. Government regulations kill off the little guy way before they become a competitor for the big guy.
Big businesses are often the ones that support these laws. PHILLIP MORRIS helped draft the bill that banned cigarette ads from television. Go figure, huh?
And let's not even get started on the two biggest wastes of money in our country, WAR ON TERROR and WAR ON DRUGS.
2 trillion that could be spent elsewhere, taxes that could be lowered or CUT completely.
You people need to wake up and realize that you cannot continue to support programs that rob from your neighbor to give to you.
The two parties will continue to enslave you.
The Tea Party is not an alternative. It's a rebranding of social conservative, hellbent on a Theocracy.
If you want real change, don't think party. Think individuals. Learn Austrian economics. Read up on Voluntaryism. Learn about Objectivism.
Maybe THEN your political beliefs will be well defined and we can end the mafia that is government and work together as a society to achieve the greatest benefit for everyone, not because it was anyone's goals, but because it was a consequence of people pursuing benefit for themselves.
Thank you for reading.

Rand Paul believes non-violent criminals don't belong in jail, that makes him a certified wingnut. He is against social security, medicare. The republinuts picked a real one this time.

What happens if the GOP gets the power and privatizes Social Security, gives it Wall Street???? George (the idiot) Bush tried it but the Dems stopped him. Lets hear the people whine when SS goes under. Thats what I mean by DIM WITTED!!! Obama isn't liked by these people because he's black!!

The collection was conceived after a box containing old notes, drawings and semi-finished glasses was found. The company, who has been producing frames since 1959, thought the notes and glasses belonged to one of their old craftsmen and named him Mr. Hally. "Mr. Hally was a craftsman who in his spare time using scraps and leftover stock was trying to create his concept of eyeglasses, and who aspired to teach his art to his son. This is how we imagined him, as an entrepreneur who lived a dream," said Massimiliano Zegna Baruffa, head of product development for Allison. "With this collection, which traces our history of frame manufacturing, we celebrate the uniqueness of the work." The collection features eight models in water buffalo horn, both optical and sun, mostly unisex, all with a flex hinge and associated with one year of the company's archives. Each style is also offered in replica horn, an acetate expressly conceived for this collection, which reproduces the chromatic and tactile characteristics of the natural horn.

Former "Today" show host Ann Curry will walk away this week with a $10 million payout from NBC.
Curry, 55, is said to have signed a contract to co-anchor "Today" for $10 million a year and because she's only completed one year of the contract, she'll be given that much when she leaves the job, according to USA Today.
TMZ also reported that it was a long-term contract, meaning Curry will get that amount for three years. She is expected to leave her "Today" post this week and will likely become a foreign correspondent for NBC News.
More from GlobalPost: Ann Curry hosts Thursday's 'Today Show' despite rumors of her dismissal
According to the New York Post, NBC has a history of being generous with its employees when the media outlet lets them go. It paid late-night host Conan O'Brien a reported $45 million when he was fired from "The Tonight Show" in 2010, although that settlement included payment for his production company, which has nearly 100 employees.
The Post also reported that $10 million isn't big money when it comes to morning television. "Today" show co-host Matt Lauer has just re-signed his contract for a reported $25 million a year. "Today" is said to make $200 million a year in profit for NBC, making it the biggest moneymaker for the network.

Maine governor's veto of drug overdose bill upheld
AUGUSTA, Maine (AP) � A bill addressing the legal treatment of drug overdose witnesses in Maine has been rejected for the session.
The state Senate on Wednesday voted to sustain Gov. Paul LePage's veto of the bill, as it fell just a few votes shy of an override. The bill would have provided a way for prosecutors to exercise their discretion when considering possible prosecution of someone who witnesses a drug overdose, but stays with the victim until help arrives.
Supporters called it a Good Samaritan law and saw it as a way to get help to the overdose victim sooner.
The governor said in his veto message that the bill would create an unnecessary barrier for drug enforcement when drug use remains a significant scourge on the state.

Need Appliance Repair Help? Ask a Technician for Answers ASAP
Hello, my name is XXXXX XXXXX I will help you with your washer. The door front can be replaced and I can get you a part number if you supply the model number. The good news is that even if you completely broke out the plastic front it would not cause a leak. The glass inner door is where the water is sealed from coming out. Let me know what you would like to do.
OK--I can get you the model number, but would like to know if this is a repair that someone with minimal skills and experience can do. Glad to know it's really the inner door that is critical to preventing leaks (I was counting on that!).
To do this safely I would take the door off the washer and lay it on a flat surface. The glass is heavy and you don't want to risk dropping it. The screws should be visible from the inside and when putting it back together you need to make sure it all lines up and the glass contact the seal so you don't get a leak. We don't try to judge your ability so I will let you decide. It is not a simple repair for someone that never did it before.
Thanks. That's helpful. Model # XXXXX XXXXX /p>
Thanks but the model number came in as all XXXXXXXs due to the site software. Can you resend it and put a space between each set of 3 or 4 numbers. I will reasemble the model number and check on the part for you.
HEre you go: 110 458 62 404
That worked. Here is a link to the parts list. **Click here** You need #20. Almost $193 plus shipping! Since it is only cosmetic could you use clear tape or glue the broken section? Just as a suggestion since I don't know how bad it is broken.

From the Census Archive: The Races of India (Part I)
The Indian government is still considering whether to quiz everyone on their caste in Census 2011, something that hasn't been done since 1931 (although the once-a-decade survey takes stock of specific lower caste and tribal groups that are the focus of government affirmative action programs). The 1931 census, though, took a comprehensive look at India's make-up, holding forth on complex and controversial aspects like caste, tribe and race.
It's a tricky, sensitive matter to define people, especially when the prevailing wisdom of one time can become discredited and outmoded later. We went back to the 1931 census to look at how the officials of that time classified Indians by race. Many parts of that study might be met with a very cynical eye today, but it certainly makes for interesting reading on how the Raj authorities viewed British India and its 353 million people.
Here are a few excerpts from the chapter "Caste, Tribe and Race," which summarizes the arrival of different groups to India up to 1,500 B.C.:
Then census commissioner J.H. Hutton began on the thorny subject with the disclaimer that he was venturing "a more speculative treatment of race."
The commissioner based his racial classifications partially on fellow anthropologist B.S. Guha's elaborate research that makes up the entire third volume of the 1931 Census's three-volume all-India report. Mr. Guha's examined skulls from the Mohenjodaro and Harappa settlements of the Indus Valley civilization that had developed by the end of the fourth millennium B.C., and from Sialkot, all now in Pakistan, as well as from Adichanallur in southern India and other places. He also studied the physical features of groups from all over India.
According to the 1931 census, the earliest race to settle in India and in south-eastern Asia was "probably" the "Negrito."
"Rapidly disappearing though he is," says the chapter, he "still survives in the Andaman Islands… but he has left few traces on the mainland of India and Burma."
"Traces of his stock are still to be seen in some of the forest tribes of the higher hills of the extreme south of India," the report says, describe the group as being of short stature and having frizzy hair. While not being definitive whether this group had any ties to people of similar physical features in Africa, the report says that since the group "has existed in Andamans in a condition of hostile isolation for many centuries," the bow might have been its invention.
Next to settle in the subcontinent in prehistoric times, the report says, were the long-headed, flat-nosed Protoaustraloids, whose origin "must be sought in Palestine," Mr. Hutton wrote. The Protoaustraloid race is represented in certain tribes in southern India, including the Paliyans of the Palni Hills, and in today's Sri Lanka in the Veddahs, Malavedans and Irulas, according to him.
The geographical movement of this race extended into Indonesia to the east and "is found from Kashmir to Cape Comorin [now better known as Kanyakumari, India's southern tip] and from Kalat [in Baluchistan in today's Pakistan] to the Karenni [today's Karenni state on the Thailand-Myanmar border]. The contribution of the Protoaustraloids to "Indian culture" must have been the introduction of pottery, the report says.
The race the British believe contributed the most "to the physical composition of the people of India, and perhaps also to its culture," were the Mediterraneans (which could explain why many Indians and Italians share a similar outlook on their mothers, food and punctuality).
This race would have come in from the eastern side of the Mediterranean Sea and arrived in India at a very early date, the 1931 report says. They spoke a language that the report considers to have been the root of Austroasiatic languages like the Munda languages that are spoken in many parts of today's Indian states of Jharkhand, Chhattisgarh, Orissa and Andhra Pradesh.
Part II, later this week, will look at some of the remaining groups that the census officials wrote about in 1931.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Lisa63 from Perfect Boxspring Cover This cover really helped complete the look of my new master bedroom. Great quality and good fabric weight. Also stays in place very nicely. I researched a lot of different box spring covers online and this was hands down the best value. I could have spent less but would have received lesser quality. And, probably would not be as happy as I am with this.

So I guess I'm having a flare because I tapered off of the steroids and was okay for about a week and a half to two weeks and now I am back to feeling like my whole body aches and being tired all the time. The mornings are especially hard because my hands are so stiff and weak - I can barely hold my medicine bottles or open a water bottle I have only seen my rheumy three times which includes my initial visit, so only once since I've been on any medication. He isn't even the doctor that started me on steroids - it was my dermatologist because my discoid was not only on my face but also on my scalp and making my hair fall out. He started giving me steroid injections in my behind that would last about 3 weeks until the symptoms would start again (in addition to giving me injections of steroids into the discoid spots on my face so that they would heal. I then started a 40 MG a day prednisone prescription and tapered down to nothing.
Anyway, since my flare started my dad keeps telling me I should just get up and go outside and go for a walk. That I should start a project or something because if he was in bed all day he would feel the same way I feel. He also questioned my medicines (plaquenil and mobic) - and said there is probably something all natural available over the counter that would work. I tried explaining to him what having a positive ANA/lupus means, and he can see the discoid on my face - so I am basically living with my parents again at 25 (after having not lived with them since I was 19 years old) and my dad thinks that I am sick because I am lazy. He does know that when I am on steroids I am fine - I went to San Diego and went kayaking all day and everything and I was great (thank heavens for steroids).
I went to my PCP today because I thought maybe there was something he could talk with me about doing something natural and what he thought of taking steroids continuously. He said to talk to my rheumy about the continuous steroids because that he is not his specialty - but that there is definitely not anything natural that has the same effect on the body as plaquenil, mobic and prednisone. I broke down crying because I am basically living with someone who thinks that I am sick because I don't like to eat very much meat and sometimes I am in bed all day. All my PCP suggested was to take xanax when my dad talks to me like he does because it seems to be making me depressed. I have never taken xanax before but the talks with my dad are become more and more frequent, and I don't want to take xanax all the time.
So basically I am hoping I can stay on steroids for a while (so that I can get out of bed) and hope my dad comes around, but there is still the other part of me that realizes I am 25 and I have gotten every job I have ever interviewed for so I could move out. I have a remarkable resume and college/internship + post graduate experience so I am not worried about getting a job, I am worried about committing to feeling well enough to work. I've only lived with them since August - I resigned from my analyst position with a global firm in August to focus on my health... but that isn't going to work if I am upset everyday. It's either the stress or the lack of steroids that through me into this flare. Any words of wisdom or comments much appreciated/welcome

I just received this from Holland-America and thought I would share the information with everyone out here on Cruise Chat. It is as follows:
January 8, 2007 Valid passport or other accepted document* required for all air travel to or from the U.S.
June 1, 2009 Valid passport or other accepted document* required for all travel to or from the U.S. (air, sea or land)
Although the requirement to possess a valid passport for sea and land border crossings has been extended to June 1, 2009, the government can accelerate this date based on meeting certain criteria
the rest of the message was:
Please note that effective January 8, 2007, all cruise guests entering or re-entering the United States by air are required to have valid passports. U.S. cruise guests who travel by air to embark in Vancouver for Alaska cruises and Canadian cruise guests who travel by air to embark in U.S. ports are required to have valid passports for all cruises terminating on or after January 8, 2007. Foreign nationals should contact their respective governments to obtain details regarding current passport requirements.
All cruise guests must present the required documentation at embarkation. Cruise guests without required documentation will be denied boarding and no refund will be issued. Holland America Line will strictly enforce this requirement in compliance with the Western Hemisphere Travel Initiative.
To help ensure your positive travel experience with Holland America Line, we encourage you to make sure that you are prepared to meet these pending passport requirements.
A good plan is to have a passport sooner than later.
If you need to fly back to the U.S. due to illness or family emergency you will need a passport.
We never expect emergencies to come up but they do happen.

Reds Get Bailey and Cueto Back
Cincinnati Reds
The Reds have a healthy rotation for the first time this season as they added Bailey and Cueto back into the fold. If the early returns are any indication then neither Bailey nor Cueto have much rust to shake off despite missing the first month.
Bailey, recovering from a shoulder ailment, returned to the Reds last Thursday and threw six innings of one-run ball against the Astros while striking out seven batters and issuing a walk. Cueto, who had a triceps injury, returned on Sunday and also went six innings, fanning four batters, walking one, and not allowing a run versus the Cubs.
Sam LeCure and Mike Leake served as the replacements in the interim. LeCure pitched fine whether you look at SIERA (3.49) or earned run average (3.91), but the opinion on Leake varies based on the fancied metric. SIERA has Leake as the Reds second best starter (behind LeCure), while ERA suggests he is below replacement level. Admittedly, it's a small sample size either way. Moving the pair into the bullpen should raise the talent level and gives Dusty Baker the ability to provide some interesting multiple-inning looks in certain situations.
If there is one thing the Reds don't lack, it's starting pitching depth at the big league level and credit them for A) being able to take their time with injury rehabs and B) actually going through with it.

WASHINGTON (Dec. 3)
Henry A. Byroade, Assistant Secretary of State for Near Eastern Affairs, conferred for over two hours today at a secret luncheon meeting at the Carlton Hotel with top leaders of the American Council for Judaism. Among those at the meeting were Lessing J. Rosenwald, president of the Council, and Rabbi Elmer Berger, its executive director.
Interviewed by a JTA reporter, Mr. Byroade declined to talk about the meeting. "I merely met with some old friends whom I have known for a number of years," he said. Mr. Rosenwald told the JTA he had "absolutely nothing for publication about the meeting today."

The 2017 Ford C-Max Hybrid is a difficult car to classify. Is it a crossover-utility vehicle? Is it a compact wagon? Is it a fuel-efficient runabout? The answers are "not really," "yes" and "yes." Ford calls it a "multi-activity vehicle," and though we doubt the MAV acronym will ever catch on, it's as good a description as any for this European-bred vehicle.
There are so many things we like about the C-Max that it's difficult to pick a place to start; since Ford puts "hybrid" right in the name, we'll begin there. The hybrid powertrain comprises a 2.0-liter gasoline engine paired with an electric motor for a total system output of 188 horsepower. The EPA estimates the C-Max Hybrid's fuel economy at 40 mpg combined (42 city/38 highway), which is good for such a commodious vehicle, though not the highest you'll see in a hybrid hatchback. Ford also makes a plug-in hybrid version called the C-Max Energi, which is covered in a separate review.
The C-Max Hybrid is quick: We clocked it to 60 mph in 8.1 seconds, and we were impressed by its real-world acceleration and passing power. It's also easy to maneuver and good fun to drive, with a suspension that blends above-average ride comfort and sharp handling.
We're equally fond of the interior, which is well organized and made up of high-quality materials. The tall driving position provides excellent visibility on par with that of SUVs and crossovers, and there's plenty of storage space for odds and ends. We like the new Sync 3 infotainment interface that comes standard on the top-of-the-line Titanium model; we're much less fond of the small display on the base-level SE.
Rear seat passengers enjoy plenty of leg- and headroom, although cargo space isn't as generous as that of similarly sized SUVs and compact wagons; blame the hybrid system's battery pack, which lives under the trunk floor. Still, there's more storage space than in a typical small sedan or hatchback — a comparison we think is fair because the C-Max is just as easy to maneuver and park in crowded urban areas.
Ford sells the C-Max Hybrid in SE and Titanium models. The SE comes with a list of useful standard equipment and several option packages that allow buyers to customize the car to their liking. The Titanium is lavishly equipped, with a long list of standard equipment and many advanced-technology options. Let Edmunds help find the perfect 2017 Ford C-Max Hybrid for you.

Camperdown - A Tanzanian national accused of threatening one of Jacob Zuma's wives was denied bail in the Camperdown Magistrate's Court on Thursday.
Zuma's wife Nompumelelo Ntuli - commonly known as MaNtuli - alleged Steven John Masunga tried to force her to arrange a business meeting for him with Zuma.
The offence allegedly took place on January 15.
However, Masunga had complained that it was Ntuli who had threatened him and prompted him to lodge a complaint with KwaZulu-Natal provincial commissioner Lt-Gen Betty Mmamonnye Ngobeni.
Handing down his decision Magistrate Thys Taljaard said the fact that Masunga felt his life was so threatened to complain to the province's top police official made him a flight risk.
"He probably thought he was a marked man," said Taljaard.
The court heard on Tuesday from Brigadier Clifford Marion that Masunga threatened Ntuli with a claim that Zuma was not the father of one of her children.
However, Masunga told the court he was arrested only after he had complained to KwaZulu-Natal's top cop that Ntuli was threatening him.
Masunga said he spoke to a senior police officer about threats he had received from Ntuli, as well as the police's poor handling of a burglary at his sister's salon.
Masunga was arrested by Marion in Ngobeni's office after complaining to Marion about the way the burglary was handled.
He said Masunga had introduced himself as Steven Ongolo at Marion's office. Marion then recognised the name Ongolo from a complaint Ntuli had lodged with police.
Having seen the SMS on Ntuli's phone, he called the number and Masunga's phone rang. He promptly arrested Masunga, confiscated his phone and seized his passport. He said when Masunga was arrested, instead of calling a lawyer, he called a Sunday Tribune journalist.
Taljaard rejected the State's argument that there would be a public outcry if Masunga was released.
"In view, it was just an afterthought," he said of that argument.
The case was postponed to March 11.

Toronto Is Taking Another Look at Food Truck Bylaws
The City is once again aiming to make its streets a friendlier place for food vendors.
Operating a food truck in Toronto can be a complicated business: you're not allowed to set up shop in the majority of Toronto streets; you can't work for longer than 10 minutes in a privately owned parking lot; you can't settle yourself in a side street; and you're forbidden from selling your wares within 25 metres of a restaurant that deals in a similar kind of food.
It certainly doesn't help that as things stand now, food vending is regulated by six different bylaws.
The City is once again ready to take on the food truck issue (its last attempt, which resulted in the "A La Cart" program, was not a success)—proposals discussed at the first of two planned public consultations included extending the time a truck is permitted to remain in one place, increasing an operation's maximum space allowance, and making permits easier to acquire.
These suggestions, and ones arising from the second public session scheduled for January 20, should lead to a proposal involving one harmonized street food vending bylaw. Staff will then present this proposed bylaw to the City's licensing and standards committee in March, which means that more straightforward rules (and perhaps more food trucks) could be in place by summer.

Pinellas County officials grapple with perception of bloated government
CLEARWATER -- During the first few hours of a series of strategic planning meetings, Pinellas County commissioners and County Administrator Bob LaSala have wrestled with how to mesh a public that perceives government as bloated after making tens of millions in spending cuts each of the past few years.
The sessions, led by consultant John Streitmatter, have focused on how the members work together before they lay out top ideas for budgeting and running the county. (Streitmatter is being paid no more than $60,000 under a county contract.)
"A lot of people kind of think government is bloated. So we come in an make the cuts, and people don't feel them," Commissioner Neil Brickfield said. "So therefore government is bloated."
The board viewed a PowerPoint presentation that showed their general fund spending dropping below 2002 levels while other officeholders hadn't fallen as much, although it left out parts such as utilities spending and other programs that also are part of the budget.
LaSala partially blamed
the disconnect between the federal spending angst and what actually happens at the local level on people's expectations for quick information in a "Sesame Street society" used to getting information in 60-second bites.
Several commissioners blamed distrust of the federal government for trickling down to them, and the fact that emergency and mandatory services haven't been cut. But Commissioner Ken Welch made another point: A lot of the people who rely on health care aren't apt to call and complain.
Other parts of the meeting have been less weighty. Each official had to tell the others what makes them go and what ticks them off. LaSala said passive-aggressive behavior -- "hiding the ball," not disclosing all info -- bothers him the most.
"What about when you do it?" Brickfield replied.
"Call me on it," LaSala said.

Community Rallies Around 9-Year-Old Girl Fighting Cancer
New London, VA - The Domino's in New London hosted a fundraiser Sunday for a nine-year-old girl who is battling bone cancer.
Domino's donated every penny to Cassidy Richardson and her family.
Cassidy was diagnosed with Osteosarcoma this summer. She and her family have made frequent trips to Johns Hopkins Hospital in Baltimore.
The traveling and medical bills have taken a toll on the family, but the illness is not even close to knocking the vibrant 4th grader down.
Hundreds came Saturday to eat pizza and give money to a special cause: Team Cassidy.
"She is so brave, she is a champ. I tell her everyday she's my hero," said Kim Richardson, Cassidy's Mom.
"It means the world to Cassidy and to us it's just almost overwhelming how many people have come out to support," added Kenny Richardson, Cassidy's Dad.
Jennifer Cobbs and her husband own many area Domino's. They decided all money raised would go directly to the Richardson Family.
"I am floored. I cannot believe the amount of people that have come out and the amount of money that they are willing to give to help this little girl. It's quite amazing," Cobbs said.
Cassidy is a very active girl. She is normally involved in swimming, cheerleading, martial arts and other activities.
Cassidy has had to stay home from some of her hobbies to keep her immune system strong. Her mom says despite the setback, Cassidy is staying motivated, especially with help from the community.
"I'm glad they got to come and be here with me," Cassidy said.
"We're very happy to live in this area and have so many people that think so much of us," Kenny Richardson said.
Family members tell me that Cassidy has already had six rounds of chemotherapy.
This week, Cassidy will have surgery to remove part of her femur bone. She will also have a complete knee replacement.
After the tumor is removed, Cassidy will have to have more chemotherapy treatments.
The prognosis looks good, however.
Cassidy is certainly a strong little girl.

Great Greed was one of the 'sleeper hits' made by Namco back in the old days. I recently got the chance to buy it at my ebgames for only about $6-$7, and I have to say that this game is simply amazing. Keep reading to find out why!
The graphics are mostly good, but they can be very repetitive at times. Other than that, they are great. It's easy to tell what the monsters look like, rather than a blob.
Probably my favorite part of any video game is the music. If the music doesn't flow, then the game's a no go. This games music is great.
The best thing. You go from nation to nation doing quest or whatever (I don't want to spoil the story!). Okay, that does sound generic. The main thing though is the battle system. It combines real-time with your standard FF battle system. If you are in a battle, but don't do anything for awhile, the monster will attack you. It doesn't wait for you to attack first.
The controls happen to be my favorite part of the battle. No more going through long list to find your spell or attack. You just make shortcuts using the d-pad to do whatever magic you want. Start is flee, B is dodge, and A is attack. The battles are actually fun because of this. It's fast paced, and doesn't take up your whole gaming time.
Who wants to travel to Shiskaburg and Teapot Town? How about the nation of Sushi? Before I go into the story, I just want to say that this game is VERY random, so don't try to confuse yourself.
You start out with your dad checking the acid rain in the forest. While he is doing that, a old lady named Microwave, who is being chased by someone, teleports to you, and takes you to another world! You end up in the kings castle, and find out that the person who was chasing Microwave was a minion of Bio-Haz, the main villain of the game.
That's all I'm gonna tell you, but the story progresses nicely, and doesn't get old.
Fun Factor-10/10
This game is all around fun! I can't explain that much more, but expect to enjoy this game a lot!
Final Score-10/10
This game NEEDS to be in your gameboy. You won't be disappointed.
