Cordula Nussbaum, CSP
Expert for creatively chaotic time and selfmanagement
Cordula Nussbaum is regarded as "Germanys number one expert on creatively chaotic time and self-management" (Medienecho). In a humorous and pragmatic way, this top public speaker and best-selling author gives out-of-the-box thinkers, trendsetters and trail blazers advice on how to optimise their self-management and gain more time, satisfaction and success. This experienced economics journalist (FOCUS, Wirtschaftswoche, Süddeutsche Zeitung et al.) has developed an innovative approach to show what "new time management" can look like in todays professional working environment. As a self-confessed creatively chaotic person, she lives and practices what she preaches. She had her first - and painful - encounter with the issue of time management while working in the marketing department of an international corporation. Many years later, after she had completed her Masters degree in communication studies and psychology and after a lengthy period of study in Paris, she spent a lot of time with talented people and realized that the standard method for time and self-management simply did not work. She therefore created a "time management for creatively chaotic people". Junge Karriere, a German trade magazine, wrote about her in an article entitled "Classical time management did not help Cordula Nussbaum. Therefore she designed a system for creative minds". Cordula Nussbaum is one of the first university-qualified "Professional Speakers" GSA/SHB.

Lakeville's Taylor Kinzler is in Las Vegas counting down the days until her chance to shine on the national stage as a contestant in the 2013 Miss America pageant on Saturday.
Lakeville's Taylor Kinzler is in Las Vegas counting down the days until her chance to shine on the national stage as a contestant in the 2013 Miss America pageant on Saturday.
"I'm incredibly excited," Kinzler, 20, said in a telephone interview from Las Vegas, among activities as part of the competition that includes 53 contestants. "It's been very busy in the past few days, meeting all the girls and starting to do rehearsals. It's something I've been worked toward my entire life."
Kinzler has spent the last week in Las Vegas, taking part in preliminary portions of the Miss America competition, along with public appearances, ceremonies and other activities with the other participants.
"It's been really fun so far," said Kinzler, a journalism student and a sideline sports reporter at the University of Rhode Island who won the Miss Massachusetts pageant last June. "I'm really not that nervous. The past few months of preparing have been very rigorous. I feel calm and at ease. I've done as much as I can to prepare. It's out of my hands now."
On Tuesday, Kinzler had an interview with the judges of the contest and then later in the evening she competed in the evening wear and swimsuit portions of the pageant.
Today Kinzler is scheduled to take part in the talent portion of the competition, and on Thursday she will answer her onstage question. On Friday she gets a break but on Saturday night she will be in the spotlight for the public portion of the competition that will be aired on ABC at 9 p.m.
For Kinzler, earning the chance to be crowned Miss America was the result of years of training and hard work.
"Growing up, I wasn't the type of girl wanting to be Miss America," Kinzler said. "But one year I watched the competition and was blown away by the contestants and their character. Getting here is something I worked for day in and day out."
But it wasn't an easy path for Kinzler. The Lakeville woman could have quit her pageantry efforts after failing to win Miss Massachusetts twice in a row, but she was determined to carry on to accomplish her goal the third time around.
"My message to everyone out there is that you can achieve everything you set your mind to," Kinzler said. "I'm living proof of that. I've learned so much from this. The biggest thing I want people to know is you really can achieve your goals."
Kinzler grew up training in gymnastics and dancing, and performed an acrobatic dance as part of her efforts to win Miss Massachusetts 2012. For Miss America, however, she will sing the jazz standard, "At Last." Kinzler, who hopes to pursue a career in broadcasting, said she has spent her year as Miss Massachusetts traveling the state and working to raise funds and awareness for the Children's Miracle Network charity, Miss America's national platform, supporting healthcare for sick and injured children.
As part of her public service, Kinzler also established Give The Gift Of You in 2008, to provide an online resource for youth in Massachusetts to find updated volunteer opportunities. The website is www.givethegiftofyou.org.
Lorna Brunelle, who has trained Kinzler for pageants for the past three years, said the Miss America hopeful has a down-to-earth personality.
"Miss America is going in the direction of the girl next door, and Taylor embodies that," said Brunelle, owner and artistic director of the Burt Wood School for Performing Arts in Middleboro. "She's very engaging. She's very sincere, smart and driven. She has a funny, silly side. Taylor is not a stereotypical pageant girl. She is a very hard worker. We are really proud."
Brunelle lauded Kinzler's determination and resiliency, for winning the Miss Massachusetts pageant after failing in two previous attempts.
"The other story is that she never gives up," Brunelle said. "She has been dreaming about this her whole life. Miss America is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity."
The Burt Wood School has a reputation for churning out pageant winners, boasting more than 150 titles and pageant awards since 1998, including former Miss America contestants Miss Massachusetts 2011 Molly Whalen, Miss Massachusetts 2009 Amanda Kelly and Miss Massachusetts 2007 Valerie Amaral.
If Kinzler wins, she will be the first Miss Massachusetts to be crowned Miss America.
Kinzler said more than anyone she has to thank her mother, Cory Arter, for helping her along the way. Kinzler said as she remains in Las Vegas, she can always look forward to going back to her hotel room to read some inspirational text messages left by her mother.
"She's been by my side since day one," Kinzler said. "She never stopped supporting me. She is not only an incredible mother, but she is my best friend."

Pitched Roy Thiele Sardina
Fund: KeyNote Ventures
Posted by cheshirecat on 2008-02-17
We pitched Roy Thiele-Sardina. He was pretty easy to take, none of that I'm-up-here-you're-down-there or I'm-looking-through-you attitude you get sometimes. He pressed pretty hard and asked some tough questions and was pretty free with his opinions, not all of which were positive, but I got no sense of malice. He's someone we feel like we can work with productively, at least from our first impression.PRIVATE: Members Only (123 Characters)

2013 British and Irish Lions
Lions Watch: Team of the Week
ESPN Staff
January 7, 2013
Stuart Hogg scored for Glasgow to keep them in second place in the RaboDirect PRO12 © PA Photos
The countdown to the eagerly-awaited British & Irish Lions tour to Australia intensified at the weekend with the latest action in the Premiership, PRO12 and Top 14.
As we all tick off the days until the team depart Down Under, ESPNscrum will cast an eye across the action and pinpoint those players eligible for the elite tourists who are pushing their selection claims with strong performances. But luckily there is still a lot of rugby to be played until the squad board the plane for Hong Kong and plenty of time for hopes to rise and fall.
15. Stuart Hogg (Glasgow Warriors)
The 20-year-old gave Scotland fans reason for optimism ahead of the Six Nations when he grabbed Glasgow's second try in their dominant 41-7 win at home to Treviso to cap an impressive performance in attack and defence.
14. Christian Wade (London Wasps)
The Wasps speedster pounced for a pivotal score in his side's Premiership victory over Bath at Adams Park. His superb finish accounted for four defenders and helped propel Wasps into the top four.
13. Brian O'Driscoll (Leinster)
Showed he is approaching full fitness and his best form with a full 80 minutes in Leinster's win over Edinburgh. Six Nations opponents you have been warned.
12. Jamie Roberts (Cardiff Blues)
The twice-capped Lion returned to the Cardiff team and played the entire 80 minutes as the Blues grabbed an impressive 17-6 win away to Munster.
11. David Strettle (Saracens)
The England international got among the tries during his side's victory over Sale and also turned provider for team-mate Charlie Hodgson with a deft chip through highlighting the fact he is more than a speed merchant. The fleet-footed Strettle may well feature in the Six Nations if he maintains this kind of form.
10. Owen Farrell (Saracens)
Farrell signalled his intent to keep hold of the England No.10 shirt with a 22-point haul in their Premiership victory over Sale. Farrell slotted eight kicks from eight attempts to suggest that Leinster's Jonathan Sexton may not get it all his own way when it comes to the Lions.
9. Henry Pyrgos (Glasgow)
The 23-year-old continued his meteoric rise after making his Scotland debut during the autumn internationals and hounded Italy scrum-half Edoardo Gori all night as Glasgow beat Treviso.
George Skivington grabbed two tries as London Irish beat Gloucester © Getty Images
1. Tom Court (Ulster)
A much-improved player from that which suffered at the hands of England during the last Six Nations. He is set to embrace the latest battle for northern hemisphere supremacy full of confidence with his latest eye-catching display coming in Ulster's dominant PRO12 victory over Scarlets.
2. Dylan Hartley (Northampton Saints)
The England hooker was back to his abrasive best to help Northampton return to form and inflict the Chiefs' first loss at home in the league with a 30-19 win.
3. Dan Cole (Leicester Tigers)
The Tigers' tight-head may have only appeared as a second half replacement in his side's Premiership victory over Worcester but that is all someone of his class needs to make a big impression. Hitting a rich vein of form just in time for the Six Nations..
4. Joe Launchbury (London Wasps)
The England international continued to show why he is rated so highly with a strong showing in Wasps' line-out against Bath as well as getting through a ton of work around the field. A big Six Nations surely awaits.
5. George Skivington (London Irish)
Almost single-handedly breathed new confidence in the Exiles after a turbulent few weeks over the festive period. The former Leicester man went over for two tries in Irish's well-deserved 18-12 victory at Kingsholm.
6. Phil Dowson (Northampton Saints)
Another player who did his best to remind the Stuart Lancaster and the rest of the England coaching staff that he has much to offer. His physical approach was crucial to the Saints win down in Exeter and he didn't shy from work either in attack or defence.
7. Matt Kvesic (Worcester Warriors)
Continues to show that you don't need to be a huge specimen to flourish on the open-side flank. His work-rate at the breakdown almost helped Worcester to a famous win over Leicester and Lions head coach Warren Gatland is likely to need either Kvesic or someone similar in stature to nullify the threat of Australia's No.7, David Pocock.
8. Billy Vunipola (London Wasps)
The Lions tour may come a little too soon for the 20-year-old but there is no doubt he is a rising star of the game and offered another all-action display as his Wasps side accounted for Bath.

My Favorite Sandwich from Cookin' Crunk
Chicken 'n' waffles is a thing down South. To be honest, in my meaty pre-teens, I never actually tried this strange combo. But when I started cooking vegan, I became obsessed with trying to recreate it. And what better way to combine chicken and waffles than with the awesomeness of a wafflewich?
Now, this recipe is no joke. It involves making my Southern Fried Tofu Chicken (beer battered!!) and my Savory Sandwich Waffles. Oh, and there's a simple recipe for the sandwich's signature Maple-Dijon Sauce.
It's not light on calories either. Most of my recipes are reasonable, calorie-wise, because I count calories religiously. There's even a calorie/nutrition breakdown provided for every recipe in the book, but don't expect this one to be light. I mean, the tofu is beer-battered and fried, for god's sake. But hey, sometimes you gotta live a little. I only eat this sandwich a few times a year, so I gotta make it count.
But despite all the work and calories, every sinful bite is worth it. Just check out the ass end of this sandwich:
Tip: If you have a crappy wafflemaker, cook the waffles a little longer for extra toastiness. The waffles need to be able to stand up to the fillings. If that doesn't work, toast the waffles in a toaster after they're done cooking. Unlike breakfast waffles, sandwich waffles shouldn't have to be eaten with a fork. But it all depends on your waffle maker. I just bought a new one, and it's just "meh" so extra toasting is required.

Your food always looks so good! Your cookbook is so on my Christmas list! I love that you break down the nutrition facts so I don't have to do it later. It's nice when cookbooks have the calories already counted!

OMG that does look AMAZING! I am the same way- was never interested in chicken and waffles when I actually ate chicken. But that was also before I went to the South, and so many weird and lovely flavor combos were opened up to me... this is a must-try, for sure!

holyscreamingheartattacks...I can't believe I've lived decades on this earth and have never eaten a waffle sandwich, let alone this stacked masterpiece. I gotta get an iron.
Until then I'd stick it in a pita to catch all that veggie topped deep-fried goodness. :)

Miami Dolphins
Miami Dolphins' Charles Clay capably filling void at tight end
When Dustin Keller was carted off the field in Houston in mid-August, most figured the Dolphins were going to have to patch up a huge hole at tight end with a combination of fill-in parts.
Not anymore. After five games, Charles Clay has separated himself from mere fill-in status.
Ranked fifth among all AFC tight ends and ninth in the league with 23 catches for 297 yards (seventh most in the NFL) and two receiving touchdowns, Clay suddenly has become a must-have fantasy football player and one of Ryan Tannehill's favorite targets.
Third on the team in receptions, Clay (6-3, 255 pounds) is on pace to reel in 74 catches for 950 yards, which would shatter the team receiving yardage record for a tight end set by Randy McMichael in 2004 (73 catches for 791 yards). Seven weeks ago when Keller's knee snapped, nobody saw that coming.
"I think he's one of the hardest guys to cover on the team," Tannehill said Tuesday, before the Dolphins went their separate ways and began enjoying their bye week.
"He's got the speed, he's got the size, he's matched up against linebackers and safeties. You put those guys on him, and he's really tough to cover; we like our matchups there. Even in the [Ravens] game, he had a corner on him when he caught the touchdown. He's a really explosive, versatile guy that we can get the ball to in a number of different ways."
Clay, a sixth-round pick in 2011, showed flashes of his big play ability during his first two seasons (34 combined catches, 446 yards, five TDs). But he has never put together a stretch like this. Clay has created 144 yards after contact — fifth-best among tight ends, according to Pro Football Focus. Only Antonio Gates, Julius Thomas, Jimmy Graham and Jermaine Gresham have more.
"I feel like the coaches have done a really good job putting me in certain mismatch problems, and Ryan has done a good job capitalizing on it," Clay said. "I've done some good things, but obviously everything isn't perfect. We got a lot of football left. So I'm doing everything I can to keep playing, keep improving and just get better week to week."
One of the things Clay can certainly improve on is cutting down on drops. He's currently tied with Gates and the Ravens' Ed Dickson for the most by tight ends with four.
"Route running, being detailed, all the little detailed things are things I can improve on," Clay said. "Running routes at the proper depth for timing, pass blocking, my hands in run blocking. There's all type of things I can get better at."
The fourth of five children, Clay grew up in Little Rock, Ark., a huge fan of the Jacksonville Jaguars and running back Maurice Jones-Drew. A tailback, fullback, tight end, receiver and wildcat quarterback at the University of Tulsa, Clay wasn't sure coming into the league what position would end up suiting him best. Now, it seems he's finally found himself a game-changing role.
"Even now, I don't really just think of myself as a tight end," said Clay, who had a 1-yard touchdown run against the Colts, his lone carry as a fullback this season.
"To me, it's always been about trying to be good at multiple things and eventually where the team thinks you can help, that's where you go play. Hard work, wherever I'm playing at, is what I've always hung my hat on."
So far Tannehill has targeted Clay 31 times (fourth most on the team). According to Pro Football Focus, Clay has played in all but 49 of Miami's 311 snaps, proving the Dolphins believe he can be a real mismatch problem and needs to be on the field a lot.
"Charles knew it was his time to step up," said center Mike Pouncey, Miami's first-round pick in the same draft class with Clay.
"They brought him onto this football team to make plays. He struggled at first, but he's come a long way since his rookie year, even his second year. He's taking advantage of every opportunity thrown his way. I couldn't be more happy for the guy."

Proteins are a source of heat and energy to the body. They are essential for growth, the building of new tissue, the repair of injured or broken-down tissue, and the repair of the protoplasm of every cell. They are oxidized in the body, thus liberating heat.
Amino Acids are the building blocks of which proteins are constructed, and the end products of protein digestion or hydrolysis. Unused amino acids are converted into urea, the chief nitrogenous constituent of urine and the final product of protein metabolism in the body.

Mounted in a polypropylene base, the rust-resistant galvanized spring-steel tines are flexible and set at an aggressive angle, so you need not stoop or apply pressure to maintain contact with the ground.
With moderate pressure, the rakes also work for dethatching. Each tine has a spring coil at the base that lets it deflect over obstructions.
Heads come in three widths: 6" for working in tight areas, 9" for around shrubs or in flowerbeds, and 21" for lawns. All sizes have a 15/16" diameter joint that accepts standard 3/4" broom handles with the thread removed (secured using a 5/8" #8 screw, not included).
An 18" long fiberglass handle is available separately, letting you mount the 6" or 9" rake head for use while kneeling. A 55" handle, suitable for use with any of the rake heads, is also available.
Made in U.S.A.
The 55" Fiberglass Handle is available only at our retail stores.
The 18" Fiberglass Handle is no longer available.

Amendments Under Attack
Second Amendment advocates should not be the only ones concerned about New York's SAFE Act,a law passed in response to the Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting.
The state's gun control law is dancing all over the First Amendment too.
Gun owners were understandably upset when Gov. Andrew Cuomo and the state Legislature passed the SAFE Act in January. The law restricts access to some types of guns, bans many so-called assault weapons, includes provisions that could penalize many legal gun owners and makes use of a $500 reward for those who give authorities information about those who own banned weapons. Gun owners have said, over and over again, overreacting to a tragedy is no reason to limit how Americans exercise their constitutional rights.
Also in response to the Sandy Hook tragedy, a newspaper in Westchester, N.Y., filed a Freedom of Information act request for all pistol and conceal carry permits in their coverage area and then used that information to create a map which they published in print and online. It was a foolish act that state legislators used to justify an opt-out clause in pistol and conceal carry permits to allow gun owners to keep that information private.
Much as Second Amendment advocates say the SAFE Act is an overreaction to the Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting, the push for privacy regarding gun permits is an overreaction to a poor decision made by one newspaper in eastern New York state. Traditionally, there have been few exceptions to the free press clause in the First Amendment – and avoiding a general perception of harm is not among them. But that is the logic being used to hide this previously public information. We understand gun owners' assertion that the fact pistol permit information is public doesn't necessarily make it newsworthy. It is information, we might add, which hasn't been published in at least 15 years in The Post-Journal's coverage area, nor is it intended to be published.
It's one reason we take particular umbrage with Chautauqua County legislators' gleeful rush to further gut the First Amendment. County legislators approved, by a 20-5 vote, a resolution asking the state to make more private the previously public information about gun owners. We stand with legislator William Coughlin, D-Fredonia, in his eloquent defense of the First Amendment during Wednesday's legislature meeting.
"We gave the press the opportunity to question, at any time, and we made our records open," Coughlin said. "So, what we are doing here is, we are violating the First Amendment right, the right of the press, to come forward and look at governmental transactions. … You are now infringing upon what is the press' right to understand what is going on in government, and what the transactions are that are happening in government."
Coughlin is right. By the flawed and troubling logic used by state and county legislators, nearly every action taken by and through government could be kept private, to the great detriment of our society. Under such logic, governments could create opt-out forms making any act of government secret based on so-called privacy concerns. What is to stop politicians from closing meetings and voting in secret? Environmental records, campaign spending, legal records, birth records, pay records for public employees, arrest records and other information could all be kept secret, based on nothing, really.
If it is wrong to restrict the Second Amendment in reaction to a tragedy, then it is also wrong to restrict the First Amendment in response to the same tragedy. The SAFE Act and events that have happened in its aftermath do both. In this case, there is only one difference between the assaults on the First and Second Amendments in New York state.
Those who protect Second Amendment rights came out with guns blazing while, pardon the pun, First Amendment advocates weren't quick enough on the draw.
It's hard to tell what will happen to the protections afforded under either amendment now that the cat is out of the bag.

Vagina Monologues to Benefit Family Crisis Shelterby Howard W. Hewitt • January 10, 2005 Share:
The critically-acclaimed Vagina Monologues will be performed at 8 p.m., Feb. 13, on the Wabash College campus. Additionally, the celebrated author, Eve Ensler, will attend the performance and is expected to make brief remarks following the student production.
The play has already sparked considerable interest. Earlier this week Jennifer Young Abbott announced the performance is being moved to Ball Theater to accommodate more people. A full house is expected and anyone interested in attending the performance is encouraged to pick up tickets or sign up for the waiting list.
Ensler's play and her work inspired the V-Day movement, which seeks to stop violence against women.
Those attending Sunday's Wabash performance will be asked for donations that will benefit Crawfordsville's Family Crisis Shelter. More than 2,000 events in 42 countries are scheduled in March and February to promote and celebrate V-Day. Benefit productions of The Vagina Monologues are being planned in over 940 cities and colleges around the world.
Female Valparaiso students, and possibly two or three Wabash female faculty or staff members, will perform the monologues.
The Gender Issues committee has arranged for the performance.
The Vagina Monologues was first performed in 1996 in New York and is based on interviews with more than 200 women about their memories and experiences of sexuality. It has been described by critics nationwide as witty and wise. It has been performed by celebrities, students and others all across the country.
With the addition of Ensler's appearance, the Gender Issues Committee has instituted a ticket policy for the play. Box Office hours are 8:30 a.m.-noon and 1:30-4 p.m. Monday through Friday. Box Office will open 6:30 p.m. the day of the show.
Tickets for this event are not available by e-mail or voicemail.

Dierks Bentley Admits He's Nervous to Have a Son Like Him
It comes as no surprise that Dierks Bentley was a little rascal when he was younger. But now that he has a son due this fall, he's a bit worried. The singer admits if his newest child -- his first boy -- is like him, he'll be in trouble.
The 37-year-old country star, who is already the father of two girls Evelyn (born in 2008) and Jordan (born in 2010), tells WUSN-FM/Chicago, "Two girls already wears me out."
And with a third child just around the corner, Bentley's thinking back to all the trouble he got into as a kid. He's just hoping his son will be a little better behaved.
"It's a little tough [now], and then to think about having a kid like me? When he's like 11, 12 or 13, I'm gonna be 10 years older than I am now," Bentley says. "And the stuff I was doing back then? I snuck out of the house every night through the doggy door. I'd meet my friends. Someone would have a five-gallon thing of gasoline. Someone had matches. Someone had fireworks. Someone had the beer."
If his new kiddo takes after his Dad, Bentley will definitely have his hands full. But he turned out okay! Still, he's nervous. "I don't know what I'm gonna do. I'm gonna be going crazy," the star dishes.
Or, maybe the new bundle of joy will be a complete angel -- who knows? At least the singer and his wife have plenty of time to prepare for any shenanigans that involve gasoline, matches, fireworks and beer.
Despite his worries, the 'Bourbon in Kentucky' singer is more than thrilled to welcome his first son into the adorable Bentley family. And, if his son is like him, it means he'll be a troublemaker -- and also a fan-favorite country star someday. Sounds pretty good to us.

CHARLOTTE � After yielding 49.8 points and 593.3 yards per game in a season-ending four-game losing streak, Duke will be looking for someone to step up on defense in Thursday�s 6:30 p.m. Belk Bowl against Cincinnati.
And Blue Devils coach David Cutcliffe thinks it could be Shelby�s Carlos Wray, a backup defensive lineman.
�I�m going to challenge Carlos to be a significant factor in this bowl game,� Cutcliffe said. �And I think he will be because we need to see him more on the field in this bowl game than any time this season.�
Wray, a 2012 Shelby High graduate, welcomes the opportunity and the confidence his coach has in him. If anything, Wray thinks this will be a game in which younger Blue Devils players can show just how bright their program�s future may be.
�I plan on putting my name in the national scene,� Wray said after being told of Cutcliffe�s excitement about his play in the bowl game that will be played at the NFL Carolina Panthers� Bank of America Stadium. �We want to make this happen here at Duke.
�And me and (freshman running back) Jela Duncan and (freshman defensive back) Dwayne Norman and the other freshmen talk a lot about how next year will be our team and how we need to step up.�
Wray certainly has a point as 52 of the 65 players listed on Duke�s current two-deep depth chart are slated to return next season as the Blue Devils will look to make the first back-to-back bowl appearances in school history.
Since Duke is making its first postseason appearance in 18 years, Wray has already played a role in Blue Devils� history.
�It feels good to make this bowl game,� said Wray, a three-time All-Cleveland County Shelby Star pick at Shelby, including a 2009 tri-county player of the year selection. �I know a lot of the guys that have been here haven�t been able to experience this. It�s more for the seniors because they�ve spent so much time trying to build this.
�It feels really good for us as a freshman, too. But we know our work isn�t done.�
After playing defensive end, linebacker, tight end and fullback at Shelby, Wray was recruited to play defensive line by the Duke coaches. He also was expected to redshirt this season in order to further improve on his already-imposing 6-foot-2, 280-pound frame.
But injuries forced Wray into the lineup. In 10 games covering 96 snaps, Wray has made three tackles.
�As a true freshman, I�m sure it�s been a little overwhelming for him at times,� Cutcliffe said of Wray. �But what a physical specimen. He�s continued to learn it and get an understanding.�
Said Wray: �I didn�t expect to play right away coming in. I thought I�d pay my dues and be on the scout team. But I came in, worked hard and did what I was asked to do. Basically, I did what my high school coaches taught me to do.�

There's always that search for the perfect nude blush...not too warm, not too cool, not too brown, or muddy. As most people know I love a red lipstick, but I usually tend to pair a red lip with a super pale pink or pale peach cheek.
I usually wear NARS douceur for a brown-pink and as much as I like the blush itself, it's not a true nude blush. So then my search began...I didn't want a shimmery blush, or anything matte. Yours truly searched high and low for quite sometime. Anyway, so I went to the Armani counter and I asked my MA (Joey) for a nice nude blush...and he basically understood my search and told me to check out #5. He swatched it, I grabbed it and ran out the door :D
I took it with me earlier this year when I traveled out of the country. I know I'm so lame for reviewing this so late in the game. I'll be wearing it later today and now that I have the time to blog for a bit, here is my review:
Texture: The consistency of Armani blushes are so awesome. They're silky, soft, and creamy to the touch. The finish is a soft sheen, with no microsparkle...it's just a soft delicious finish. It adds the perfect flush, without being overpowering. They're definitely very finely milled. They're probably the most underrated products from Giorgio Armani.
Color: It's definitely a soft neutral, beige sheen. For some reason it looks neutral-cool in photos, but on my face it's definitely neutral. Maybe for some people it may pull neutral-cool, so just be aware of that. :) The color is perfect for the times that you don't want to look like you're wearing any blush (obvious), but you definitely want a boost to the cheeks. I don't own Lancome's Miel Glace (for those who were wondering), so I couldn't tell you how it compares.
Lasting power: It lasts me at least 8 hours...I never quite took a count after the 8, since I'm usually asleep or too busy getting drunk (bad panties). What I can say is that it definitely withstands serious heat. :) #5 is one of my most used powder blushes, just because it goes with anything.
Price and Size: $43, 6 grams or 0.21 oz
and here we go with the photos :D

She knows what will be happening tomorrow, and is ok with it. She got to see bothe Chloe and Safiya today. Thanks for bringing them up Mom and Dad. In Carols words...."it was awesome dude."
She is sleeping now right next to me....she waits for me to get here at night, even though she is tired. But waits until I get to talk to her before letting herself sleep at night. Her vision has not changed and is starting to be worrisome to me even though they said it may take months to return.
I havne't mentioned it, but her vitals are stellar today. No fevers, blood pressure great, heart almost under 100 all day ( which I haven't seen yet). So on that note...things look better.

Hey Scott!
I'm so pleased she is getting better everyday. I'm happy she was with the girls too. That is awesome. I've talked with people that are in the medical field and all agree it will take time for her eye sight to return. All the crazy meds! She is always in my thoughts and prayers and will continue to be. Stay strong and keep the faith!

Wow, what an amazing woman you are married to! She's so wonderful!
I have seen many, many grafts done. We, like you, have complete faith that these surgeries will go just fine. It's a big area....but it sounds like they are doing the right thing, for sure.
Scott, what did the neuroopthalmologist say about her vision? Can she see at all right now?
Give her kisses from us.
Lots of love,

Ally, the neuroopthomologist said she can see light and dark images that are blurry. Mostly dark though. He looked in and at the back of her eyes, and at the nerves in back, and didn't see any issues. So he believes the issue is in the brain. He said only time will tell, but he was optimistic.

Hello Scott,
You probably don't remember me but we went to Highschool together. My name then was Jennifer Roberts. I just got an email today from a mutual friend about what has been going on with your family.
First of all I want to comment on how amazing you seem to be doing. I have a lil one and still remember those first couple months, I know how hard that is by itself let alone with everything else. I am an ER RN now so know how scary the medical world can be and I am very impressed with all your knowledge and how on top of your wives illness you are and the top care that you are getting her.
I just wanted to let you know that your family is in my prayers and if you need anything please let me know.
Thank you for whoever set up the WAMU account, as I don't know Carol or your family it's nice to be able to feel like I can contribute in some way. Stay strong and amazing!

While replacing one of my more difficult cache placements in a local park I noticed a City Cop slowly driving on the park entrance road. I walked through the woods to greet him and let him know what I was doing. "Oh they do that here too?" was the only cache related discussion. Apparently a driver had called in that there was a young man walking up the nearby main road with a rifle strapped over his shoulder and he was looking for this guy. That has been my only encounter with a LEO.
I have received logs for some of my caches that involved the seeker of the cache hearing what they thought were gunshots and then being told to move along by officers a short time later. Unfortunately for me these tend to be from caches that I placed very near to home but then I do live "up in the hood" now. Wasn't that way when I moved here but it seems to be now.

If, in addressing the challenge of economic and social security the politicians simply meant to "second the motion" of God's intention for the family, things might have worked out differently. (The same could be said of using public money to support education.) I think, however, that the socialist mentality has at its heart a spirit of rebellion against God, not cooperation with His will. So the purpose is to substitute government action for the activity of the God ordained institution of the natural family, and ultimately to exalt human will and control above and in place of adherence to God's will.
The key evidence of this intention is the promotion of so-called "gay-marriage." Once that idea is accepted, the natural (i.e., Creator ordained) basis for the family is necessarily discarded. The duties and attendant rights arising from the bonds of family are left with no legitimacy except what they derive from human legislation. The state may then claim the power to define the duties and rights connected with the family without regard for any natural (that is, Creator ordained) limits upon that power. This allows the state to claim the primary role in the upbringing and education of children. It makes parents at best agents of state power. But once the upbringing and education of children are taken over by the state, the possibility of government of, by and for the people cannot be sustained. Those who control the government simply brainwash new generations to be servile subjects of state power.
Respect for the God-ordained family as an expression of the natural law instituted by God makes it imperative to preserve respect for each individual's responsibility to God, which the state cannot lawfully supersede. This imperative runs counter to any claim by the state justly to usurp from parents primary authority for the upbringing and education of children. It obliges the state to respect the unalienable right arising from each parent's responsibility before God. Therefore in order to consolidate state power, the doctrine of unalienable rights arising from the natural law must be cast aside.
Not all of the politicians (in both the Democrat and Republican parties) who promote socialist schemes do so with this intention, aware of the full implications of what they do. At present, however, I believe leaders in both the Democrat and Republican parties serve people and forces (e.g., George Soros) that are fully aware of, and committed to, the goal of discarding the natural law ideas articulated in the American Declaration of Independence; completely overturning the constitutional republic; and emancipating the institutions of human power (chiefly represented by government) from all not merely expedient moral constraint.
Because this escape from moral constraint is the desired result, there is no incentive for the government to live within it's means. Money isn't put aside to meet needs or address crises. Needs and crises are simply convenient excuses for claiming control of more and more money. Those seeking unlimited power covet unlimited control of all available resources. Anyone who accepts the supposedly "pragmatic", money centered framework of the current discussion of government policy plays into their hands. The irresponsible policies that threaten the American way of life do not arise from bad fiscal practices. The bad practices arise from an ideological agenda intended to destroy the American way of life.
Clearly the first step in thwarting this agenda is to recognize the mainly ideological character of the threat. Then we must:
- Refresh and restore our understanding of the ideas and principles that provide the moral and practical basis for constitutional (justly limited) government, including especially the natural law basis for the doctrine of unalienable rights and its dependence on acknowledging the existence and authority of the Creator, God;
- Think through and apply the consequences of this understanding of America's ideas and principles as the basis for our approach to all the policy issues we face, beginning with the treacherous failure of the existing political system and the elites that control it, as well as the issues of national and economic security arising from that failure;
- Give priority to addressing the aspects of this failure that most directly assault the moral and practical foundations of constitutional government, especially:
- Imposition of a false doctrine of "separation of church and state" intended to impose government control of all religious belief and activity rather than to protect them from government interference and domination;
- Abrogation of the doctrine of unalienable rights through abuses of executive, legislative and judicial power in order to promote abortion, gay marriage, and wholesale infringement of the right to keep and bear arms;
- Material starvation of the right peaceably to assemble and seek redress of grievances being perpetrated under the guise of so-called "campaign finance reform" laws, and other legislation aimed at stifling the political activities of the people;
- Erosion and confiscation of the independent material resources of the people through the imposition of a tax system that requires the surrender of fundamental constitutional rights and fiscal policies that virtually enslave this and future generations of Americans with debts to foreign powers and international banking institutions;
- Dilution of the sovereignty of the American people through lax surveillance of the borders of the United States, lax enforcement of immigration laws, and careless extensions of the privileges of legal residence and citizenship to illegal aliens, thereby promoting a demographic invasion of the United States intended to subvert the sovereignty of the American people.
- Imposition of a false doctrine of "separation of church and state" intended to impose government control of all religious belief and activity rather than to protect them from government interference and domination;
- Support proposals to address the crisis of national and economic security that aim to
- Reestablish the just limits upon government power imposed by the U.S. constitution, including the exclusion of the judiciary from any share in the legislative power of government;
- Abolish the Federal income tax, and repeal the 16th amendment thus restoring to the people control of the first claim to and use of their property and resources, including especially such income as they derive from their labor or other economically valuable capacities.
- Fund the Federal government using tariffs, duties and excise taxes as provided for in the Constitution prior to the imposition of the Federal income tax;
- Restore the Federal character of the Constitutional republic by restricting the activities of the U.S. government to the use of those powers explicitly delegated to it by the Constitution, leaving all others, not explicitly prohibited by the Constitution, to the States and the people as the 10th Amendment requires.
- Reestablish the Constitutional provision for enforcement of the 10th amendment by repealing the 17th Amendment, and thus returning the election of U.S. Senators to the control of the people as constituents of their State governments, through which they exercise the residual powers of sovereignty reserved to them by the 10th amendment.
- Base efforts to address the social and economic challenges facing the American people on approaches that fully respect the prerogatives and responsibilities of the natural family; preserve the private sector as the primary and preferred engine of economic activity; and protect the material independence and national security of the American people by reducing the national debt and pursuing trade and other international policies that preserve the industrial capacity of the United States on a competitive basis.
- Maintain the moral and material capacity of the United States to pursue the most effective strategy for national defense, including the capacity to comprehend, influence and where necessary appropriately respond to, threatening international events and situations;
- Reject the false national security policy that seeks to compensate for ineffective or incompetent national security measures by targeting the unalienable rights and constitutional liberties of Americans.
Note that this strategic outline includes both a clear understanding of our situation, and a summary of specific priorities and related policy goals. We need to find and back people who are willing and able to represent both, first as candidates for office, and then as our representatives in government. Because the threat does not come exclusively from this or that particular element of the assault on our way of life people who are good on one or even several issues, but who do not subscribe to or cannot articulate the understanding and priorities that inform our overall purpose, won't get the job done. Such people could be useful members of the forces needed to renew our liberty, but they will not succeed without general leadership that effectively unifies them in articulate pursuit of the overall strategic plan.
- Reestablish the just limits upon government power imposed by the U.S. constitution, including the exclusion of the judiciary from any share in the legislative power of government;

The Week In Review

Just had a listen to Ian Brown's wonderful track F.E.A.R. For those who don't know the song, it is written around those four letters. Every line in the song, well almost every line, uses those letters to create the words, so we end up with lines like Forgive Everybody And Remember and Fantastic Expectations Amazing Revelations and so on.
Anyway, it got me thinking, which is always a bad thing, about what exactly is meaning. The song, or more accurately, those four letters mean so many different things throughout. And yet, as a whole the song has meaning – not that I want to go into song hermeneutics here.
Then we have the Bible (bet you didn't see that coming). Many passages in the Bible are taken to mean different things by different people. As one very simple (ha) example we have the whole millennium thing; I'm not going into it here but if you want to know more have a look here.
My question is where is meaning? Is it in the single lines; the individual verses; the song as a whole; the message of the book; or something else?
I'm not asking for an answer, simply encouraging a conversation. But in closing I just want to point out that more bigotry and judgement has come from emphasising the minutiae than viewing the whole. Jesus himself would accept a summary of the minutiae quite willingly.
Ian Brown's song isn't called Find earth and reap, it's called F.E.A.R.
The Bible isn't called Psalm 68:21 or Leviticus 18:22, it's called The Library, a collection of writings from across centuries, about how God has reached out to humanity. There is no need to rip out bits and pieces and no need to over-emphasise other bits.
You can pick up any Bible and read to begin to see what it is on about.
As for Ian Brown's F.E.A.R. You can listen to it below, as you ponder its meaning.

CSS Crib Sheet ArchiveNovember 25, 2003
The Crib Sheet has moved to a permanent home. I threw it into this site's template for now, but I may choose to do something differently, eventually. Perhaps a PDF or two. The good news is that my print style sheet should allow for a relatively clean printed version for now.
I'm referring the Sheet to this post, and leaving it open for comments indefinitely. Feel free to add more suggestions below. Remember the focus: practical, real-world tips that aren't picked up in the spec, or by the validator. Things that are easy to trip over, and may not make sense without external knowledge.
Reader Comments
I vote for Matt too. Quick genius.
New Tip: Don't link to empty style sheets as 'placeholders' for future style sheets (like a handheld sheet or print sheet). Mac IE5 chokes on the empty style sheet and the page tajes forever to load. Instead, have at least one rule (or perhaps even a comment?) in the style sheet so that MacIE doesn't choke.
We need a new "memory aide" for link order that includes focus. I'd like to suggest one – "Love Violins, Hate Flutes and Accordions." Anyone have a better idea?
"Lions Vicious Have Fangs for Appetizers"
I got it! SW Geekitude + CSS Geekitude:
Matt wins, if for no other reason than to stop this thread from being completely derailed with clever initialisms… ;)
RE: Remember "TRouBLEd" borders.
I'd also add that the borders are specified in a clock-wise order, starting with top.
I have trouble finding things in big CSS files, so I adopted a rule that feels the tiniest bit counter-intuitive when you explain it, but you get used to instantly.
Sort all your CSS rules alphabetically; in multipart rules, alphabetically RIGHT to LEFT, thus:
a { whatever } /* matches  */
.cc a { whatever } /* matches
…  */
#banner { whatever } /* matches
 */
html>body #banner { whatever } /* ditto */
a.brillig { whatever } /* matches  */
.ct {whatever } /* matches <whatever class='ct'> */
img { whatever } /* matches  */
img.inline { whatever } /* matches <img class='inline' */
#head ul { whatever } /* matches
 …
 */
It's probably more important to have a rule than to sign up for this or any other one in particular.
How about separating colours, fonts, from layout? Do most people think that's good practice or just a personal choice.
While I'm on the topic, if you did separate colour and layout into 2 sheets, how would you handle items like borders that affect both. For example, you've got a sidebar that is width-sensitive and includes a border. Would you use "border-width: 3px; border-style: none solid;" in the layout sheet and "border-color: #000;" in the other?
RE: Consider accessibility when using image replacement
Thanks for a great article on image replacement. I've been struggling with this myself recently…
I'm testing the Shea Enhancement, and I'm having problems eliminating the padding at the bottom in IE. (Mozilla displays it correctly.) Since this is in my logo/header section, I need to the backgrounds to match up perfectly. Here's what I'm using:
/* the CSS */
#pageHeader, #pageHeader h1, #pageHeader h2 {margin: 0; padding: 0;}
#pageHeader h1 {
width: 840px;
height: 53px;
position: relative;
#pageHeader h1 span {
background: url(images/heading-1-top.gif) no-repeat;
position: absolute;
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
#pageHeader h2 a:link, #pageHeader h2 a:visited {background: #CCC url(images/heading-1-bottom.gif) top left no-repeat; width: 840px; height: 43px; margin: 0; display: block;}
#pageHeader h2 span {display: none;}
/* the HTML */
[div id="pageHeader" title="my title"]
[h1][span][/span]My Site Dot Com[/h1]
[h2][a href="/"][span]My Site Rocks[/span][/a][/h2]
No matter what I try, I can't get the 6 pixels of margin out of the H1 tag in IE. If I remove the text after the empty span, there's no margin…If I set a -6px margin, it works in IE, but overlaps in Mozilla…Any ideas?
Something I learned the hard way:
Whenever you're floating multiple divs inside a non-floated container div, ALWAYS remember to add this following the final float:
[ div style="clear: left;" ]
IE may forgive you but other browsers won't!
Thanks for posting that! I optimized my CSS sheet and I'm much happier with the way it looks and it downloads much quicker now… I'll be linking to you when my blog is complete!
In the (perhaps rare) occasion when a user has stylesheets off but javascript on I've found this method is sometimes useful:
set an empty div to be absolutely positioned to (say) left:10px just after the body tag. Give an id of something like "stylesOn", then with inline javascript, you can check for stylesheets "on" this way:
//stylesheets are on
do stuff that relies on stylesheets being on
don't do stuff
some caveats:
this is by no means fully tested (works in IE5 mac, haven't tested it elsewhere)
it's ugly and there's probably a neater way of doing it.
offsetLeft is probably deprecated (but works on all the mac browsers I've tested it on - camino, safari, ie, moz)
add your own complaint
I'm with Michael Ward on the borders mnemonic. I've seen two or three letter-based ones like yours, and I don't understand why no book or tutorial ever bothers to mention the word CLOCKWISE. It's so much easier.
Besides, Lord Vader's Handle has clawed its way into my brain, and evicted all the other mnemonics I once knew.

Funny you should mention that. I'm busy converting my sites over to all-CSS styling, and I was thinking of trying to have a separate choice of color scheme, at least, in addition to layout choice. I figure, I'll design the choice of layouts to include a certain color scheme in each one, but I'll also let the viewers override that with other available color schemes if they want.
Personally, I'd like to see people attempt some color-independent layouts. I know there's a few cases where I rather liked someone's layout, but the color scheme was atrocious, and vice versa. Plus if your layout is color-independent, it'll still look good even if a person needs to use a user sheet with their own color scheme for whatever reason.
Of course, ideally you could try to take this as far as you wanted… a modular thing where a person could choose fonts, color schemes, image sets, navbar position, etc. Of course, whether or not anyone would actually want to go that far as anything other than an eye candy experiment is beyond me.
The one big caveat to color separation, at least, that I can think of is that it might be hard to come up with some background images that look good with various color schemes. There are some minor issues, too… having an extra connection for each page, having an extra file to keep track of, the fact that two files will be larger than one combined one, due to the need for the selectors to be specified in each file, etc.
Personally, I'd say that if you want to attempt color (or other property)-independent styles, then go for the separation. But if you need a certain style to have a specific everything to work, probably better to just keep it all in one.

If there is a way to separate out border color using simply the shorthand property, I haven't figured it out… everytime I try the color just won't "take". So I find that I need to write all the border properties out.
I'd like to post french a translation of this article on my blog. Do you give me your approbation Dave ?
Of course!
The french translation is avalaible @ this adress :
Feel free to comment, (postez vos commentaires).
To add: adding div {border: solid 1px #fff;} to a layout *really* helps debug layout problems.
Along similar lines as comment #19, a co-worker and I just came up with a technique to solve the common de-bugging question, "Where the heck is that gap coming from?"
First try using the * selector to determine the offending property like this:
* { margin: 0 !important; }
* { padding: 0 !important; }
Once you've narrowed down the property you can find out which tag is causing the gap like this:
div { margin: 0 !important; }
ul { margin: 0 !important; }
Hey Dave, how about this for an idea? Until all browsers comply with the box model why not avoid the use of horizontal padding altogether and just use margins instead? That way we can say adios to all those hacks. On my home page I am currently using no padding at all. Is there a problem with this that I'm missing?
"To add: adding div {border: solid 1px #fff;} to a layout *really* helps debug layout problems."
Just a minor minor adjustment, but using #f00 instead of #fff is even nicer. Nothing can be overlooked when it has a big shiny RED border, but especially when designing layouts that use light colors a white border can be overlooked.
I personally generally use "border: 10px solid red;"
It's just debug CSS so I won't bother with doing a time-consuming #f00 when typing 'red' will suffice. :)
IE treats the border styles of inset and outset quite differently than Mozilla and Opera. IE's version of inset and outset almost looks like two borders around the element.
Your best bet to make elements look like push buttons: use a border-style: solid and set the colors for border-top, border-right, border-bottom, and border-left individually.
Great run-down of common CSS issues. One item I would suggest adding: Make sure you include a complete doctype on every page, preferably one that puts browsers into standards mode.
The following tip should be revised:
- Don't use quotation marks around paths/URLs.
The reason you gave was that IE5/Mac chokes on quotation marks. In reality, it only chokes on *single* quotes. IE5/Mac handles double quotes without any problem (I've been using them forever).
I immersed myself heavily into the depths of CSS design and now I am stuck with an enigma: ALT tags..
If anyone knows how to utilize these under css please share it, its hard to justify making a well designed visual site using css layouts that can use the images displayed with quality search engine optimization. Tell me I missed something critical. Or is it all entirely about balance, Danielson.
Re: Best Practices
This can be a potentially priceless resource. Thanks for hosting it. I noticed something as I read through.
It's not clear to me which tips work/have been tested in which browsers/versions. Knowing these things would be very helpful.
I don't know if someone already mentioned this but I haven't seen it in the discussion so I thought I would bring it up. Maybe it's just stupidly obvious but I have come to believe that minimizing the use of classes should be a best practice. Or, another way of saying this is apply CSS attributes to basic HTML tags first (H1 { color:#ffffff; }) rather than using classes. Following this rule helps provide basic formatting to CSS-ignorant browsers (and text-based browsers). A web page that is styled using lots of SPAN and DIV tags doesn't look like much in Lynx. I know that for most folks this really isn't an issue, but think of it as a courtesy for surfers with a physical or technological impairment.
Never forget the "background-color" tag in the "body" tag.
If you want the background of the body to be white, always include body { background-color:#ffffff; } for those of us who don't have a default window background color of white.
Some offenders:
Don't know if this is news, but if you open your page in IE and save as "Web page, complete" it will save any linked style sheets in an expanded form, splitting all your grouped rules into individual rules
Can be handy when trying to figure out what rule applies to what element.
May want to ignore that, looks like it only saves the rules it understands. Could be usefull in its self but needs a longer look.
this piece of content is translated into Russian and published at http://www.webmascon.com/topics/coding/41a.asp
Box model is wrong? CSS3 helps you! Peter-Paul Koch knows the fix: http://www.quirksmode.org/css/box.html . Just wait for Safari for support.
When it comes to layouts, a thing that is very oftenly forgot is the question "How important is this mismatch between browser A and B, does it need fixing?"
I believe a lot of people tend to fix small differences which have no effect on the page itself, but for it "to look the same". Not everything is obliged to look the same, just as long as it satisfies.

Sen. Ted Cruz of Texas made comments to reporters after senators reached a deal to end the government shutdown and lift the debt ceiling. The transcript was provided by Federal News Service.
SENATOR TED CRUZ (R-TX): Unfortunately, once again, it appears the Washington establishment is refusing to listen to the American people. The deal that has been cut provides no relief to the millions of Americans who are hurting because of "Obamacare." The deal that has been cut provides no relief to all the young people coming out of school who can't find a job because of "Obamacare." It provides no relief to all the single parents who have been forced into part-time work, struggling to feed their kids on 29 hours a week. It provides no relief to all the hard-working families who are facing skyrocketing health insurance premiums. And it provides no relief to all the seniors, to all the people with disabilities who are right now getting in the mail notifications from their health insurance companies that they're losing their health insurance because of "Obamacare."
It is unfortunate that Washington is not listening to the people.
And I want to commend the House of Representatives. The House of Representatives has taken a bold stance listening to the American people. But unfortunately, the United States Senate has refused to do likewise. The United States Senate has stayed with the traditional approach of the Washington establishment of maintaining the status quo and doing nothing to respond to the suffering that "Obamacare" is causing millions of Americans.
This is unfortunate, but nobody should be surprised that the Washington establishment is pushing back. Nobody should be surprised at the resistance to change. Let me say the American people in the last few months have risen up in overwhelming numbers. We've seen millions of Americans all over this country working to change Washington. That has been incredible progress.
And this fight, this debate will continue until collectively the American people can make D.C. listen, can get real relief for all of the people who are hurt because of "Obamacare."
You want to know what this fight is about? It's about one thing. It is about all of the people across this country who are right now facing terrifying decisions because they're losing their health care, they're losing their jobs, they're being left in the cold, and sadly, the United States Senate has said Washington will do nothing.
It has created the problems you're facing, but Washington will do nothing to address the suffering you're feeling. That is unfortunate, but this debate and this fight will continue in the months ahead.
Q: Senator, a two-part question here. Number one, will you filibuster?
SEN. CRUZ: What's the second part?
Q: The second part is if you're not going to filibuster, will you take a significant amount of time that is not a true filibuster to punt this into tomorrow?
SEN. CRUZ: There have been many questions about the timing of this vote. The timing of this vote, it is my understanding from leadership, is likely to occur today. I have no objections to the timing of this vote, and the reason is simple. There's nothing to be gained from delaying this vote one day or two days, the outcome will be same.
Every Senator, every member of the House is going to have to make a decision where he or she stands, but there's no benefit -- I've never had any intention of delaying the timing of this vote, and indeed, I thought it was interesting reading in the papers that much speculation about whether we might delay the timing of the vote, Republican leadership never asked if I intended to delay the timing of the vote.
My focus is on the substance. My focus is, I think, where the American people's focus is, which is what are we doing to provide real relief to the people who are hurting because of "Obamacare." And unfortunately, today, the answer is the United States Senate and the Washington establishment is doing nothing to provide relief for the millions of people who are hurting because of "Obamacare."
Q: Senator, I'd like to talk to you about where we are right now. As you well know, you have a lot of fellow Republicans really downright angry at you because here we are almost three weeks later, the strategy that you started out on, to defund "Obamacare," as part of funding the government they never felt was going to work because the votes aren't there.
And here we are reopening the government after a lot of bruising political warfare internally, and you've got nothing for it.
SEN. CRUZ: Well, Dana (sp), respectfully, I disagree with the premise of that. I think we have seen a remarkable thing happen. Months ago, when the -- when the effort to defund "Obamacare" began, official Washington scoffed -- they scoffed that the American people would rise up. They scoffed that the House of Representatives would do anything, and they scoffed that the Senate would do anything.
We saw, first of all, millions upon millions of Americans rise up all over this country. Over two million people signing a national petition to defund "Obamacare." We saw the House of Representatives take a courageous stand listening to the American people, that everyone in official Washington just weeks earlier said would never happen. That was a remarkable victory, to see the House engage in a profile in courage.
Unfortunately, the Senate chose not to follow the House. And in particular, we saw real division among Senate Republicans. That was unfortunate. I would point out that had Senate Republicans united and supported House Republicans, the outcome of this, I believe, would have been very, very different. I wish that had happened, but it did not.
But it does give a path going forward, that if the American people continue to rise up, I believe the House will continue to listen to the American people, and I hope, in time, the Senate begins to listen to the American people also, because, look, lots of people in Washington love to focus on the politics. It is, unfortunately, the game of this town. But what matters more than any politicians in Washington is all of the people across this country who are hurting right now, who are getting in the mail a notification that the health care they're relying on for their care, for their parents' care, for their childrens' care, that it's being canceled because of "Obamacare."
President Obama promised the American people "Obamacare" would lower your health insurance premiums. I would venture to say virtually every person across this country has seen exactly the opposite happen, has seen premiums going up and up and up, and everyone who clicks on "Obamacare" and sees the premiums sees the premiums going up and up and up. President Obama promised the American people, if you like your health insurance, you can keep it. We now know that statement was flat-out, categorically false.
People all over this country are losing their health insurance. Fifteen thousand UPS employees got a notification in the mail that they were losing spousal coverage, that their husbands and wives were all losing the health insurance that they wanted and they liked. That is happening all over the country. It's wrong.
And the focus in my view should not be on the politics of Washington. The politics of Washington at the end of the day doesn't matter. What the focus should be is on making Washington, D.C., listen to the American people and respond to the very real harms that "Obamacare" is causing to millions of people.
Thank you very much.

Major Section: ACL2 Documentation
A view of ACL2 proofs may be obtained by way of ``proof tree
displays.'' The emacs environment is easily customized to provide
window-based proof tree displays that assist in traversing and
making sense of the proof transcript; see proof-tree-emacs.
Proof tree displays may be turned on with the command
and may be turned off with the command
see start-proof-tree and see stop-proof-tree.
( DEFTHM PLUS-TREE-DEL ...) ;currently proving PLUS-TREE-DEL 1 Goal preprocess ;"Goal" creates 1 subgoal by preprocessing 2 | Goal' simp ;"Goal'" creates 2 subgoals by simplification c 0 | | Subgoal 2 PUSH *1 ;"Subgoal 2" pushes "*1" for INDUCT ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ ;first pass thru waterfall completed c 6 *1 INDUCT ;Proof by induction of "*1" has | <5 more subgoals> ; created 6 top-level subgoals. At ; this point, one of those 6 has been ; proved, and 5 remain to be proved. ; We are currently working on the ; first of those 5 remaining goals.See proof-tree-examples for many examples that contain proof tree displays. But first, we summarize the kinds of lines that may appear in a proof tree display. The simplest form of a proof tree display is a header showing the current event, followed by list of lines, each having one of the following forms.
n <goal> <process> ...Says that the indicated goal created
n subgoals using the
indicated process. Here ``...'' refers to possible additional
c n <goal> <process> ...As above, but calls attention to the fact that this goal is a ``checkpoint'' in the sense that it may be of particular interest. Some displays may overwrite ``c'' with ``>'' to indicate the current checkpoint being shown in the proof transcript.
| <goal> ... | | <k subgoals>Indicates that the goal just above this line, which is pointed to by the rightmost vertical bar (``|''), has
k subgoals, none of which
have yet been processed.
| <goal> ... | | <k more subgoals>As above, except that some subgoals have already been processed.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++Separates successive passes through the ``waterfall''. Thus, this ``fencepost'' mark indicates the start of a new proof by induction or of a new forcing round.
See proof-tree-examples for detailed examples. To learn how to
turn off proof tree displays or to turn them back on again,
see stop-proof-tree and see start-proof-tree,
respectively. See checkpoint-forced-goals to learn how to mark
goals as checkpoints that force the creation of goals in forcing
rounds. Finally, see proof-tree-details for some points not
covered elsewhere.
