Replica Bags I never turned in my time sheets at my high school job. It not like I didn need the money (those Dunkin Donuts french vanilla iced coffeesweren going https://www.replicapursevalley.com to buy themselves), but I just had some kind of block against it. When I started this business, my dad told me to hire an accountant. I can afford an accountant. point was that if I didn I would never bill clients, never keep track of what money was coming in, and consequently the business would be finished before it began. And he was right, so I did. I have colleagues, though, who I know personally do the invoicing because that helps them keep things clear in their minds: it just a personality difference.

The franchise won three titles in their historynote 1955 as the Nationals and 1967 and 1983 as the 76ers. and have logged nine total trips to the NBA Finals. They have also had some of the greatest players in NBA history play for them, including Wilt Chamberlain, Julius Erving, Moses Malone, Charles Barkley and Allen Iverson. They are also currently going through perhaps the most extreme rebuilding process the NBA has ever seen in hopes of building a more sustained winning franchise like the Spurs or the Mavericks, with three seasons featuring extended losing streaks and fewer than 20 victories, while also sending away most competitive players in exchange for draft picks, notoriously known as "The Process". The saving grace from all this is that they got a bunch of early draft picks thanks to the equally mismanaged Sacramento Kings. wholesale replica bags
Designer Replica Bags We're talking about romanticizing the history to the point that people wish to live in that previous time. For example, I honestly wish I lived during the late 1800's. I know Fake Designer Bags there were a lot of problems and the medical care was very poor but it was easier to find jobs, there wasn't as much bureaucracy, and the land wasn't as overcrowded as it is today. Also, even though there was pollution, there were still a lot more trees and natural rivers then there are today. This is the kind of nostalgia this trope is about. So this is about wishing you were alive to see a live recording of the Ed Sullivan show and this is not about merely appreciating the Ed Sullivan show.

VETERAN broadcaster Sir Paul Holmes has been knighted at a special ceremony at his Hawkes Bay lodge.
Around 100 guests, including Prime Minister John Key, were there to witness Sir Paul receive a "dubbing of the sword" by Governor General Jerry Mateparae.The ceremony was brought forward due to his poor health.
"It's not good, generally. I don't think Houdini will do it this time," he told APNZ.
Sir Paul said the honour meant a lot to his family, for the Paralympics, for broadcasting, and for the Erebus plane crash case, which he had written a book on.
"The honour today means an incredible amount on so many levels."
Sir Jerry said Sir Paul had celebrated "the colourful, the passionate and the expressive side of our national psyche" throughout a long and varied career spanning print, radio and television.
"You have asked hard questions of politicians, bureaucrats and celebrities. And you have told the stories of everyday New Zealanders as they celebrated the good times, and grieved in the sad times.
"As you said at the close of your nightly programme for 15 years: `Those were our people today, that's Holmes tonight.'
"Sir Paul, your achievements and commitment to your work as a broadcaster and supporter of community initiatives have brought us together here today.
"Your legacy to New Zealand broadcasting, as a pioneer – in talkback radio, and in news and current affairs on television – is considerable. You are man of many talents, skills and endeavours whom we acknowledge and celebrate today."
The 62-year-old had heart surgery last year and is battling prostate cancer.
He officially retired last year, and is one of New Zealand's most recognised media personalities.
The ceremony also recognised his commitment to the community, including the Paralympics, anti-drugs campaigns, and the Auckland rescue helicopter.

"Mummy, the birds are talking to us…"
Thoughts on the Shamanic Scientist
"Mummy, the birds are talking to us!" This is exactly what a two-year-old said to her practitioner mother, as they both sat in front of a chattering flock. It was as if the child spoke aloud the thoughts of her mother, and it cut into the practitioner like an illumination from 'on high!' It is amazing what our children can show us, for they recognize easily what we may have come to overlook…
A practitioner in Australia, tells us what happened:
"I have a question… I have been sitting outside for the past couple of hours as I always do in the mornings for tea and breakfast with the kids. Although living in suburbia we have a vast array of birdlife, I've always heard them and gained messages, but this morning there has been an abundance of them all calling and I feel that they are here for me. I then wonder if it is ego based… How do you determine the difference? I realize when I'm on my path things unfold really quickly but then the doubt settles in and I fear that's its ego talking."
"…The questions coming through thick, from the pit of my stomach – why would the birds each have so much to tell me? Why would that tree over there be providing me with insight as to where I needed to delve into my subconscious to clear negative patterns? I am not that special that I am privy to such an amazing life to be able to be a part of something so much bigger…"
"… the experience of the birds in the morning as I was seeing in the sun rise with my children – it was amazing they all had so much to give, pure love and courage, their songs were beautiful and they were so close, there were no boundaries, I accepted this in and then all of the sudden the questions began… the answers came flooding through, through the innocent eyes of my two year old – "Mummy, the birds are talking to us!" that really made me look at the difference of the innocence of child (who I once was) and then an adult who is contaminated with the negative influences of society."
"The realization came - I have to transform so many preconceived ideas to connect back into the innocence that was once a part of me, the true self that knew that each and every thing has wisdom, is alive with a wealth of knowledge to teach and to guide each and every person who is willing to listen, this was once all there but has been polluted with so much negative conditioning that the glimmer deep down inside is hard to find."
"This was a huge lesson for me and provided me with the opportunity to really take that leap – the leap that only one who is really ready to be true and honest with themselves and those around them can take."
This practitioner brings up an important issue that eventually – often at the onset – faces nearly every practitioner: What's real? More specifically, in this case, how can we determine whether the birds, or any messengers, are speaking to us, or whether they are 'just birds', yakking, cawing and chirping?
The answer is simple. Just begin by accepting whatever is in front of you for what it is, right there in front of you, and let the consequences 'speak' for themselves. I guess in a philosophical way of talking about it, it would be to treat our shamanic experiences as 'phenomenological research'. By this, I mean that we 'bracket' our current experience as something in and of itself, and set – even if for a while - our former ways of determining truth or reality as if these had no place in trying to make sense of the phenomena we are now seeing and hearing.
In other words, treat it without bias!
The object is to just go ahead and work with what we are seeing and hearing as if we already knew it was real and true, and that all that stood in the way was that we just didn't understand, yet, how it all 'worked'. Then, with more and more experiences, the pieces start coming together, over time, like parts of a puzzle. This is actually the scientific way: gathering information, sorting, hypothesizing, testing, and looking for consistency and repeated results… That was essentially how anything was first discovered. The human race didn't start with textbooks; they just began looking for clues, and slowly one or another paradigm of 'how it worked' took shape.
That's how shamanism took shape.
This 'how it worked' is called a 'paradigm'. There are and have been many, many paradigms throughout history that explained for a culture or epoch how things were determined as being 'real' or not. Contemporary physics describes a universe that is chock full of things we can't see with our naked eyes or touch with our skin. Elaborate gadgets are constructed upon which the tracing and weaving of such things as subatomic phenomena are translated into images that we can then observe. We don't see what made the images, just the images themselves. In the shamanic paradigm, the mind is just such a 'gadget'. The shaman's mind is the instrument upon which the nonordinary world leaves 'traces' of the information that the shaman can then observe.
When you try to understand the shamanic paradigm, you can't apply positivist science, which is the 'old' science that got 'solid' and 'real' mistaken for the same thing.
New practitioners are confronted with a paradigm leap over what seems to be an abyss between the general contemporary way of perceiving things, to that which is shamanic. They proceed with what any scientist would: a 'working hypothesis' that there already is an internal consistency to be discovered, and then head out, collecting data. This leap between paradigms affects everyone differently, as everyone rubs up against shamanism differently, and has to work through it in their own way.
This practitioner's doubts would be different - very different - if perhaps, she had been raised in a completely indigenous way… She is like anyone else born into a non-shamanic culture: if she began from an understanding that was not already deeply infused with contemporary western biases, then seeing, hearing, understanding and then working with a shamanic world would probably be the most natural thing ever, and what would be unnatural, would be the very part that was casting doubt.

Intro: What Is InstaGC About?
InstaGC is a very popular get-paid-to (GPT) site and it's been around since early 2011. If you've ever heard of the more popular Swagbucks, they're the same kind of thing.
There are thousands of these GPT sites out there on the internet, some are a legit way to make some beer money, but others are outright scams. So is InstaGC a scam or one of the legit ones?
InstaGC is one of the biggest and most popular GPT sites with hundreds of thousands of members already, and many user reviews I found online says that they are legitimate and really do pay out to their members.
InstaGC rewards it's members for doing things such as:
- Completing surveys
- Using the search engine
- Watching videos
- Playing games
- Testing out apps
- Signing up for websites
- Referring other people
A lot of these tasks are what many people are already doing in their spare time, so why not join a GPT site and get paid while doing it?
How Does InstaGC Work? Ways To Earn:
The way InstaGC works is that you earn points by doing tasks, each task will reward you with anything from one point to hundreds of points at a time depending on what task you complete.
Once you've collected enough points (100 points minimum, $1 USD equivalent) you can then turn those points into rewards such as gift cards and even receiving cash via various methods such as Paypal and Bitcoin.
So here I'm going to go over some of the various ways you can earn points:
1. Downloading Apps
You can earn points by downloading and installing apps to your mobile or tablet device.
2. Making Phone Calls
I hate talking on the phone personally so this is not my thing, but if you're an extroverted talker then wouldn't it be nice to have a little chatty chat while earning some points doing so?
Although at the time of me writing this post there were no offers for me in the calls section, maybe it'll be different for you.
3. Earn Cash Back
When you shop through any of the available merchants at InstaGC, you are eligible to earn up to 5 points per dollar spent. This is also known as "cash back."
Although you do have to spend money shopping so it's not making money from nothing, but if you're going to do a lot of online shopping anyway, then why not shop through InstaGC and earn some points?
4. Clicking & Browsing Sites
You earn points by visiting and browsing websites, you will be instructed to perform certain tasks while there such as performing a search while there. The good thing is that there's always something available each day because the list of offers resets each day around midnight.
5. Completing Micro Tasks
You'll receive points for doing small tasks such as filling out surveys, listening to audio, clicking buttons, and all sorts of easy things that even a 5 year old can do.
6. Signing Up For Things
You'll be asked to sign up for free trials for services and programs. Some of them require you to give out your personal information such as credit card numbers, these ones will pay out more points as a result.
Most will start charging you after the free trial, so pay attention to when the free trial date ends and cancel your membership before then to avoid getting billed.
7. Watching Videos
The good news is you can earn points for just sitting there watching videos, who doesn't want to do that? The bad news is you will not earn a lot.
8. Point Booster Codes
This is like bonus money because you just enter a code into a box and you get some extra free points!
How do you get booster codes? You can get them via other InstaGC members who have created them and have shared them somewhere else such as on their own website. Sometimes these codes can also be found on InstaGC's social media platform. You'll usually get about 5 points for each code.
9. Referring Friends
For every person who signs up under your referral link, you will earn 10 points, you will also earn 10% of their earnings.
This can really add up if you have a lot of friends or a way to refer lots of people. So imagine if you have 100 active referrals each making $50 a month, that's $500 of passive income every month!
How Do You Get Paid?
When you complete tasks you don't earn cash directly, you earn points, which can then be turned into cash. Each point you earn is worth exactly $0.01.
After you sign up, you're automatically credited with a bonus 10 points, so they give you 10 cents just for signing up… it's not much but hey, it's free. Once you've reached a minimum of 100 points ($1.00) you can then turn those points into cash via various methods:
Gift Cards:
This is the easiest and quickest way to get your rewards. There are hundreds of different gift card options to choose from… Amazon.com, Apple Store, iTunes, Subway, Walmart, just to name a few. Once you've requested the gift card of your choice, it will be sent to your email and ready to be used immediately.
You can also redeem your points for cold hard cash via Paypal and prepaid Visa, as well as multiple crypto currency options such as Bitcoin, Litecoin, and Ethereum.
Donate To Charities:
If you're just doing this for fun and don't need the money, why not donate your earnings to a good cause? You'll have the option of donating your points to a number of charities of your choice such as the American Cancer Society, RED, Clean Water Fund, and much more.
Quick Tip: If you like the idea of receiving your earnings ASAP then also consider checking out Swagbucks (read review) where you can redeem rewards starting at just $3.
The Good & The Bad
Is InstaGC Worth It?
From my own research and experience I am 99.9% certain that InstaGC is a legitimate operation and is definitely not a scam. But whether it's worth your time or not is a separate question.
You don't really earn that much for the tasks that you do, and your hourly rate is going to be terrible. You can't even make anywhere near minimum wage doing this, and so this is beer and cheeseburger money at best.
If you'd still like to join InstaGC, consider checking out Swagbucks (read review) and Inbox Pays (read review) instead, they're both currently offering a $5 sign up bonus which is much more generous than InstaGC's 10 point ($0.10) sign up bonus.
But none of these sites will pay you very much, if you like these get-paid-to sites then I suggest you sign up for a bunch of them to maximize your earning potential with them. But only sign up to the most reputable ones or else you risk wasting your time with sites that don't pay. I recommend you check out my list of favorite legit paid-to sites that DO pay.
A Better Way To Make Money
Personally I don't want to waste time making pennies on these GPT sites. I'm more interested in making the big bucks. I want to build a real online business that can generate the kind of income for me that will allow me to quit my 9 to 5 job.
I want to live a life where I can be my own boss, have more time to do the things I love, spend more time with my family, and not have to bust my ass for little pay while making someone else rich. Does this sound like you?
If it does, then I highly recommend you to learn more about what in my opinion is the BEST way to make money online: affiliate marketing.
Affiliate Marketing / Wealthy Affiliate
It's a business model where you build a website promoting other people's products or services, and you earn a commission whenever a person buys something as a result of your recommendation.
The website you're on right now is an example of this. Just over a year ago I came across this business model and thought it was perfect for someone like me. I didn't have any money, all I got was time and the desire to make money online from home.
Unlike a traditional brick and mortar business, the startup cost with an online affiliate marketing business is very low. All you need is to make a website, so that's $12 a year for the domain name, and maybe another $10 for the monthly hosting fee. Great, that's perfect for someone like me who has very little money!
But I had no idea how to get started. I didn't know how to build a website, attract an audience, write content, rank in the search engines, or anything else. I needed someone to teach me all of this.
I learned everything about affiliate marketing at Wealthy Affiliate, an online training platform with a huge community of members that teaches you how to build an affiliate marketing business from the ground up. The training there is targeted for the complete newbie, using simple laymen language that anyone can understand.
I've written a very detailed guide called "How To Make REAL Money Online" where I go over the business model of affiliate marketing, and how Wealthy Affiliate is the perfect training platform to learn to do it the right way.
In my guide I go over everything Wealthy Affiliate has to offer including the training courses, the business tools, the support and huge community, and other features. You can read my free guide by clicking the link below:
Final Words
If you're someone who has a lot of time on your hands and you just want to have a little fun and earn a few pennies here and there, then there's nothing wrong with joining a GPT site like InstaGC.
But if you're serious about making money online, these sites are simply too low paying and it's a big waste of time.
I hope you will check out my recommendation of learning to build an affiliate marketing business from Wealthy Affiliate, this is a legitimate opportunity to build something that can eventually allow you to quit your regular job and live the life of freedom.

InstaGC – My Final Rating

Tomorrow is the big day! I hope everyone in Clovis can make it out to the Farmer's market to watch the action at Street Vault 2011! At the press conference today were some pretty impressive vaulters to say the least, and they are going to put on a big show for ya'll tomorrow. I am so honored to be a part of this event so quickly after having begun this whole adventure! Vaulting begins at 5 and goes til about 9… I'm not sure exactly what time I will be vaulting, it truly depends on how quickly the competition moves tomorrow, however my best guess would be somewhere in the range of 6-6:30ish is when I will start. If you have never been to street vault before I encourage you to come! It really is one-of-a-kind, with the crowd, the atmosphere, the kettle korn and tri-tip, and all the free t-shirts that get thrown out to the crowd when competitors make a bar… there's just nothing like it! Well I'm off to make a good dinner and watch an inspirational movie (either Soul Surfer or Remember the Titans… maybe both ;)… just wanted to give you a heads up on tomorrow!

I was born at an early age in Orange, California. I moved, as a very young kid, to North San Diego County to a town called San Marcos. I grew up wanting to be a lawyer, of all things! I graduated from San Marcos High School, and upon graduation I was accepted to attend USC for pre-law. Then my parents informed me that they weren't going to pay for my college. Thus enduth my legal career.
I enrolled at Palomar Junior College (also in San Marcos) and there I found radio- much to my parents dismay…..my mom still asks when I am going to get a "real job". I did air- shifts, production, promotions and I started producing an interview show, which I called "Backstage Pass". My first interview was with David Johanson- long after the New York Dolls and way before Buster Poindexter.
Upon graduating from Palomar I took the show and the name "Backstage Pass" with me to 91X- the legendary San Diego alternative radio station. My first interview there was with Kate Pierson of the B-52's. Backstage Pass aired on 91X for the next ten years where I interviewed such major artists as Robert Smith of The Cure, Sting (just after The Police), and all of Nirvana (including a very subdued Kurt Cobain). I worked many jobs for the station, on air, production, research, and ended up as Promotions Director.
As radio goes, and I was about to learn, you get fired a lot in the radio business. After 10 years at 91X I was shown the door. After a brief stint working with a classic rock station I became part of the original crew that started the second alternative radio station in San Diego called "The Flash" where I was VP of Marketing and Music Director. In addition to those titles I also continued to producing Backstage Pass. I also produced and hosted 2 other shows: "The All-Request Flashback Hour" and a new music show called "Flash Forward". The station only lasted about 5 years and I was gone in 2.
I left San Diego (although I had bought a house there- which I still own) and finally got to be The Boss a.k.a. Program Director. I had to travel to San Bernardino to do it. For the next 5 years I was pretty much in charge of KCXX "X1039". I had a great run there, got huge ratings, did amazing concerts (ten bands in one Christmas show alone), and while continuing to produce and host Backstage Pass, I began producing and hosting "The Sunday Night Music Meeting". During this show I had some amazing live in studio guests including Dexter from The Offspring, Gavin Rossdale from Bush and Morrissey.
But as I learned in radio…yes…there was that door again. Not missing a beat I immediately went to Los Angeles to an alternative radio station called Y017. I finally made the big time, right? ….wrong! Two months after I got there. Y017 changed formats to a Spanish language format. They were kind enough to ask me to stay, but "no hablo espanol"….so out the door again.
I was able to stay in LA, but my next gig was as Marketing Director for a classical and jazz radio combo called K-Mozart (KMZT) and KJAZ (now gone). Being an "alternative boy" and having to work classical (imaging working in a library….or a morgue) and jazz (same kind of atmosphere), you can imagine that I wouldn't last long there. I was gone in less than a year.
My next journey was my first out of Southern California. I got called, and accepted, a six month tryout as Operations Manager and Morning Show Co-host at a rock station in Guymon, Oklahoma called KKBS "The Boss". I loved this station! My morning show partner was hilarious, the owner was committed to win, promotionally aggressive, and loved to make the radio station fun! I also got to resurrect both Backstage Pass and The Sunday Night Music Meeting. During this time I would travel to places like Amarillo, Texas to interview bands like Alien Ant Farm. I really enjoyed the station and the people, but after my six months decided it was time to go …."back to Cali…" To this day I am still friends with the staff att KKBS "The Boss". Just recently I participate as a guest in a weekly talk show on the station called "The Men's Room" The Sunday Night Music Meeting still airs on KKBS, now hosted by Dusty Hudson- a total music-head like me.
I came back to California and decided that I would go back to school and finish off the Bachelor's Degree that I never got. This idea lasted one semester. Although I got straight A's- radio came calling me again.
I came to the Coachella Valley as Marketing Director for a company called Morris Media. I was the Marketing Director in charge of six radio stations and of which I got to play music on not a single one. I lasted less than 2 years. But not wanting to leave the Palm Springs area. I hooked up with Mitchell Media and got to start doing my two favorites things again: Backstage Pass and The Sunday Night Music Meeting. The shows have been on the air since October of 2003 and I've already had the pleasure of interviewing old friends like John Feldman of Goldfinger and Fred of Cowboy Mouth. I've also been turned on to some amazing unsigned talent by my partner and Music Coordinator for the show Laura Brady. She found and put on the show great new and local acts like Troubled Minority and Conspiracy of Thought.
In June of 2004 I started doing weekend and fill-in airshifts with 103.7 KPLN "The Planet" in San Diego, so I am truly living and working in 2 cities now. In the fall of 2004 I joined the airstaff of M995 fulltime doing afternoons- (3PM-7PM) so now you can hear me 7 days a week on M995.

Warming up for training – is it necessary?
I love asking questions, studying, researching, and finding out what is perpetuated myth and what is actual reality. Today I'm going to be looking at a very much misunderstood subject – warming up before training.
Everyone knows you have to warm-up before training, right? If you thought so you'd most probably be wrong as the the evidence just doesn't support it.
For the last 10-15years I've never warmed up before training. Even just walking in, gloving up and going straight into hard sparring. I've never had any problems in any way shape or form from it. I've often wondered how this can be? After all, we all know you have to warm up? Don't we?
I started to trawl through Pubmed.com and Google Scholar, together with my detailed texts to find out what actually happens when we warm-up and if indeed it actually was necessary. What I found shocked me.
To quote Frank W Dick OBE, a top sports coach and former President of the European Athletics Coaches Association "Unfortunately there is an astonishing lack of consistency in research value of warm-up." This echoed what I had found. The same is true when it comes to warm-up and the effects on performance, and also warm-up and the effects on injury prevention. The jury is actually out on the effectiveness of warm-ups from a physical perspective full stop.
There are possible advantages on the physiological value of warm-up. Again, Frank W Dick OBE writes that these might include:
Please note the words 'possible' and also 'might'. In other words, there is a lack of evidence to say this takes place. Interesting, too, that all of the above can be obtained through the application of the mind, through focus on what you want, through mental rehearsal. The same physiological reactions can happen just with the application of the mind. They also don't actually take long at all – with the right mental approach the changes can appear almost 'instantaneously'.
These physiological reactions happen so fast that with the right mental approach, setting a trigger point for the reactions, there just isn't any need for a more classical 'warm-up'. This leads more time for deliberate practice - and therefore you can get better quicker! It is just a more efficient use of time.
Frank W Dick OBE covers this. He states "perhaps most of the advantage derived from warm-up is psychological'. This matches my own experience where I just 'know' in my mind that I am going to be sparring and when I step onto the training area I 'know' what I am there for and instantly allow those changes to take place, and allow my mind to automatically focus on what it needs to do.
So should we warm up or not? I would suggest that even if there is just a psychological advantage of doing a warm-up then this is justification enough. However, hopefully this blog post will show that the benefits, physically, of a warm up are questionable.
Just to announce on my blog too that my book "No Worries" helping people clear nerves and worry, stress and anxiety is released on Amazon. Please take a look - in paperback and Kindle!

Hi Gary..I used to find if I did not warm up at least to get my lungs and heart working I would hit a wall within 2 -3 mins recover from that and I was fine afterwards. That was purely from a performance persepective but from a injury point of view ...Most injuries have have had happen when fatigued ..ReplyDelete
Fatigue definitely sets the environment for potential injuries!ReplyDelete
I'm pondering on the 'getting first wind' effect you describe above. I'm starting to believe that it is just purely a psychological state.
To get you thinking on it, here's a thought. If a hungry lion appears, you'll have no problem running as fast as you possibly can go - the first wind effect doesn't happen.

Blue Heaven Chili
Blue cheese is an unlikely ingredient in conventional chili, although other types of cheese have long been chili "tamer downers" and a favorite fixin' and mixin'. Since I have always really liked blue cheese in any form, I decided to see if it's wonderful flavor would give a great-tasting "edge" to chili—and it sure does. Try it!
Yield: Serves 2 to 4
2 Tablespoons bacon drippings or butter
1 cup chopped onion
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 large whole boneless, skinless chicken breast, cut into ½ inch dice (2 to 2 ½ cups)
3 cups rich chicken broth
4 to 6 fresh green chiles parched, peeled, and coarsely chopped, or 1 cup canned or frozen chopped green chiles
1 medium russet potato, unpeeled, diced
½ teaspoon salt, or to taste
½ cup crumbled blue cheese (blue cheese, Gorgonzola, Roquefort, or Stilton will work well)
1. Melt the bacon drippings in a large pot over medium heat. Add the onion and cook until it is translucent, about 5 minutes.
2. Add the garlic and chicken and cook, stirring, until the chicken begins to brown, about 4 minutes.
3. Add the broth, green chiles, and potato to the pot. Simmer until the chicken is cooked through and the potatoes can be pierced with a fork, 30 to 40 minutes.
4. Taste the chili and adjust the seasonings as needed, adding salt to taste (many chicken broths and bouillons are so loaded with salt that none is needed). Spoon the chili into individual bowls, and scatter the blue cheese over the top of each serving.
Note: To make "rich" chicken broth, simply simmer regular chicken broth (canned or homemade) over medium heat until it is reduced by half, 15 to 20 minutes (in this case you would begin with 6 cups broth and cook it down to 3.) Or, if using a bouillon concentrate, double the amount of concentrate.

Washington DC has always been a victim of strange myths. A typical one is that except the barred White House and a few super green park areas, there is nothing to see in this city. However, this cannot be farther from the truth, as proven by the recent figures released by the WCTC (Washington DC Convention and Tourism Corporation). Actually, this year has been a record year for the American capital in terms of the number of tourists, especially business tourists, it welcomed. Those who came to enjoy Washingtonian hospitality and to savor the monumental art culture obviously looked beyond the stereotypes surrounding Washington. The figures suggest that people are beginning to become more educated in terms of what there is to offer.
The WCTC, a non-profit organisation comprising of around 1.000 businesses, recently announced that 2007 has so far brought $5.24 billion to Washington thanks to the increased popularity of tourism in the area. The organisation creates and facilitates new meeting facilities for leisure and business every day and has played a huge and pivotal role in bringing 6 million visitors to the capital. As the majority of these visitors came on business, the revenue has been exceptional. It is the general rule of thumb that business travellers spend around 3 times as much as leisure travellers on accommodation, food and trips.
A main lure for visitors to Washington is found in the convention centres. The first ever one, constructed in 1874, was a central point of tourism, just as is the most recent, built in 2004. The latter convention centre, in fact, hosts around 1 million visitors on an annual basis. As the convention centres continue to rise and WCTC continues to do its job quite well, it is easy to understand why the popularity of Washington is expected still to soar to greater heights in years to come.

A Magherafelt farmer has been convicted of one charge of causing unnecessary suffering to a bovine animal.
Ian Wilson, Ballydermot Road, Castledawson, Magherafelt, pleaded guilty and was fined £300 plus a £15 offender's levy.
This case arose from an anonymous complaint by a member of the public to the DARD. Veterinary Service Officers visited Mr Wilson's farm and discovered an animal with a fractured leg, in the opinion of the Veterinary Officer the animal had the injury for some time. The Veterinary Officer euthanased the animal to prevent it suffering further.

Westborough – It has now been several years since a dedicated group of volunteers initiated a fundraising effort to install a memorial at the Pine Grove Cemetery to honor the approximately 500 patients of the former Westborough State Hospital who are buried there.
From the late 1800s to the early 1900s, if a patient at the hospital passed away without any family members to take care of their final arrangements, they would be buried in the Potter's Field at the cemetery, with only a small numbered stone to mark their grave.
As the fundraising effort for the memorial continues, a ceremony is held each year to honor those patients and ensure that they are never again, as they were for much too long, forgotten.
This year, in a beautiful and somber event organized by Employment Options as well as the Westborough Cemetery Memorial Project, the patients were remembered with music, prayer and words of inspiration.
Glenn Malloy has been a force since the early days behind the effort to build the memorial. As he has done so in the past, he captivated the audience June 22 with his powerful words.
Malloy was on track to become a champion college gymnast when he suffered a breakdown, he said. After years of "darkness," he was able to find strength, he noted, thanks to the support of many "who shone their light" on him.
"Isolation and loneliness are of the hardest things to deal with," he said. "Darkness can leave us feeling discouraged."
The words of Mother Teresa, ("Not all of us can do great things. But we can do small things with great love,") as the words of Isaiah ("A bruised reed He will not break And a dimly burning wick He will not extinguish; He will faithfully bring forth justice") also gave him comfort, he said.
"I am now here to elevate you," he said to the audience. "Because your light has shone on me. And no one can take away that light."
"And now, these people," he said of the 500 patients, "need to be lifted up to the light, too."
The ceremony also featured singer/guitarist Dave Jarvis and short commentaries from former Westborough Selectman George Barrette; Leigh Emery, the current chair of the board of selectmen; State Sen. Jamie Eldridge, (D-Acton); Liz Gulachenski, the director of services and programs at Employment Options; and Tim Meaney, who quoted the words of Psalm 15.
For those who wish to make a donation to the memorial, send checks made out to the "Westborough Cemetery Memorial Project Fund" and mail to P.O. Box 3198, Framingham, MA 01705.
Donations can also be made via the group's Facebook page http://facebook.com/WestboroStateHospitalCemeteryProject and by clicking on the "Go Fund Me Link," http://facebook.com/WestboroStateHospitalCemeteryProject. All donations are tax deductible.

Bull Funk Zoo's debut album was recorded in 2013 and got the highest ratings for an unsigned band's record by Rolling Stone. In the Middle East, he has made a name for himself, playing in front of up to 30,000 people at concerts, supporting the likes of Sting, Sade, Timbaland and others. Bull Funk Zoo is continuously working on new material, videos and other creative endeavours. He says: "Creativity is my drug of choice, it has got me in a vice."
At the age of 17, he moved to the US for a few years to attend university, and dig further into unknown musical realms. During this time, he also discovered punk rock and jazz, which soon lead him to realise that the mentality of these genres fitted in perfectly with his own worldview. Both in music and life, Assaad is a free spirit who is willing to cross boundaries in order to expand his mind. He surrounded himself with like-minded people such as the spoken word artist Eric Bailey and Glen Burris, a well-known horn player who played and recorded with Miles Davis on "Man With The Horn".
"Bull Funk is the ideal description of the music; it's got attitude, heart, grace, and it's in-your-face. The Zoo is the Bull Funk collective, hence Bull Funk Zoo."
Following the release of his fiery and ballsy singles 'Would You' and 'Burnin', Bull Funk Zoo is on a parade and ready to take the rock industry by storm. Raw and uncompromising, 'Dangerous Radio' is BFZ's blindfolded rollercoaster ride of rock, funk, blues, sex and the news, all the while tipping his hat to masters like Jimi Hendrix, Chilli Peppers, Range Against The Machine, Clutch, Frank Zappa and the Sex Pistols.
While previous collaborations featured Eslam Jawad -M.C (former Gorillaz and Wu Tan Clan) and Hamdan Al-Abri, 'Dangerous Radio' sees Assaad Lakkis a.k.a. Bull Funk Zoo performing and producing the whole album himself. Assaad describes 'Dangerous Radio' as a big bad bull rocking out, fornicating & wildly stompin' the blues to rubble. Hendrix havin' a drink with Tom Waits & RATM decided to tear it up.
Dangerous Radio is out September 12th

The word autism derives from the Greek pronoun "autos" means "self" where "autism" meaning "self-centeredness". Autism is a particularly difficult to understand and complex mental disorder which are characterized by:
- Living in own thoughts, feelings and ideas.
- Self separateness from the outside world.
- Social cut down with other people.
A child with autism or a similar disorder experiences the world differently than "normal" children do. Autism is also known as an "Information Processing Disorder". Impressions from the outside world are seen by an autistic children as loose information that must be assembled like a puzzle. One can compare it to immigrant to a foreign country where a foreign language is spoken and foreign customs prevail, thus the autistic feel himself totally strange in the wonderland.
Autistic children have difficulty with presenting their needs and wants. This means that they have a hard time to associate things they mean. They cant express what they want or what is expected of them. This leads to stress and anxiety.
Our world being hard for them to understand, autistic children often draw back into themselves. Thus creating their own imaginative worlds, with imaginative friends just like Alice in the Wonderland.

Eat Your Produce, Is Organic Really Better?
More and more people are buying organic and there seems to be a larger variety of organic produce to choose from in the market. Is it really better for you and worth the extra cost? There is ample evidence to conclude that organic crops have less pesticide residue than conventional crops and they have environmental benefits. When it comes to nutrition, the differences are not as clear.
Organic Farming Basics and Benefits
Is Organic Produce More Nutritious?
Although the differences in organic and conventional produce is relatively small, more research is needed to determine if there are other nutritional benefits.
Buying conventional produce from local farmers also has benefits. The nutrients in produce peak at prime ripeness, just after they are harvested. As a general rule, the less the produce has to travel, the fresher and more nutrient rich it is.
Keep Produce Safe:
The Bottom Line

Marsh's Library
by Dr Jason McElligott, Keeper of Marsh's Library
Founded in 1701, Marsh's Library was the first public library in Ireland. It houses almost 30,000 rare books and pamphlets as well as 300 or so volumes of manuscripts. Our holdings are primarily focused on the early-modern period, and we have particular strengths in British and continental European history, politics, literature and culture. Today, scholars come from all over the world to consult our holdings.
The beautiful interior of the library has remained unchanged for more than three centuries. We are open to the general public, and children are particularly welcome. Every year we mount a themed exhibition which draws upon the library's holdings, and every working day of the year we post an image from one of our rare books or manuscripts on Facebook and Twitter.

An interactive application that displays the patient health values and the usage of medication will be created. A doctor will create the personal medication plan for each patient. The patient needs to confirm usage of medication interactively (by pressing a button). When the patient measures the blood pressure, blood sugar or blood oxygen the values will be sent to the IoT platform that will compare the values with the personally configured thresholds. In case there is any deviation, the system will send an alarm to the doctor without loosing the valuable time.
How M2MGO can help
M2MGO can provide the IoT infrastructure as well as the IoT application. The IoT infrastructure will manage hundreds or even thousands patient devices connected over the Internet.
The IoT application will take care of providing the personal, interactive dashboards for the patients and high-level view for the doctors. The application will compare the health values sent by patients and issue alarms in case of critical conditions.
A prototype or pilot of such monitoring system can be created within a few hours and without investing a single euro into the IoT infrastructure or IoT application.
If needed, the use case specific enhancements, e.g. offering special evaluation diagrams or displaying of certain values can be done iteratively within a few days, so the ready to go enterprise health care application can be released to the market within a shortest period of time.

On Wednesday the weather was calling for pouring down rain so we decided to go to the Spryfield Bowlarama instead of the splash pad at Westmount School! Campers were troopers and walked through heavy rain to go bowling. We spent an hour having fun at the bowling alley and when it was time to go back to camp for lunch, the rain had let up. We spent that afternoon swimming at the wave pool again. Chocolate Lake closed on Tuesday evening due to high bacteria levels, but we are so lucky to have the Wave Pool right down the street for another option. We'll keep our fingers crossed that we can visit Chocolate Lake next week sometime but we do love the wave pool too!
On Thursday we spent the morning hanging out around camp. We made and played with Moon Sand outside on a tarp. One camper/counselor duo put moon sand in a shell mold as you can see in the photo above! We got everyone to stay in the lunch room a little longer so that we could set up Glow Bugs in the gym. We turned out the lights and hid the glow bugs (plastic eggs with battery-powered tea-lights inside) and the campers got to catch these bugs and put them back in their cage! In the afternoon we swam at the wave pool again and had a great time! When we arrived back at camp, we still had an hour and a half and it was Music Time with Alex (our Music Therapist/Senior Leader). Crowd requests included "Dancing Queen" by ABBA, some Taylor Swift songs and Rocketship Run. Campers and counselors played instruments such as shakers, tambourines and boom-whackers (hollow plastic tubes of different lengths for different pitches) along with Alex on the guitar. Music was a preferred activity for many of the campers and it was a lot of fun!
On Friday we went to the Splash Pad at Westmount School. We had planned to go to Dartmouth on the ferry and play at the Alderney playground, but we were unsure of the weather so we'll save that trip for sometime next week! Margaret (our Camp Director) was thoughtful and created some Social Stories to help campers prepare for the change in the schedule. It ended up being a lovely day and it was great to cool off in the splash pad. It was funny to see some counselors get soaked when they thought the sprinklers were off! Some campers played on the playground, enjoyed a snack in the shade or played on the swings. It was a wet and wild day because we also spent the afternoon in the water at the wave pool! After the swim we enjoyed a snack and hung out in the ball pit, in the quiet room and the art room until it was time to go home! We had a really fun week and are looking forward to Monday to see our campers again!

Believe me, I never thought that I'd be wearing something that looks like pajama pants outside the house. But this latest pajama pants/shorts trend is the perfect thing for a really hot and humid day in Toronto. And I think the key is to dress them up but still keep it all laid back. At least that's what I tell myself as I leave the house in what is basically silk boxers.
Also side note: fresh cut grass is irresistible for dogs to roll around in.

Surveys determine Top Workplaces
Employees respond to set of statements from WorkplaceDynamics
This marks the fourth year that southeastern Wisconsin workers have been asked to determine the area's top workplaces. To accomplish this task, the Journal Sentinel teamed with WorkplaceDynamics, a suburban Philadelphia company that surveys companies and analyzes the data.
The process began last fall, when we asked area companies to cooperate. WorkplaceDynamics sent solicitations to area companies, and the Journal Sentinel ran articles and advertisements in the newspaper and on JSOnline.com encouraging companies to participate.
Anyone was able to nominate a company for consideration in the survey process. The only requirements were that the workplaces must have a minimum of 50 employees in southeastern Wisconsin. Organizations may be public, private, government or nonprofit.
By the end of the year, 1,177 companies were invited to participate, and 224 chose to be surveyed. Those companies employed 102,262 workers in the area. In the process, 93,719 received surveys, and 61,010 responded, either on paper or online.
Here is how a Top Workplace is determined:
WorkplaceDynamics asks employees to respond to a set of statements about their own workplaces using a seven-point scale. Each of the statements has been tested to ensure it has a high correlation with how employees feel about the place they work. The statements help WorkplaceDynamics assess the employees' views on organizational health, their own job as well as employee engagement.
Among the 22 statements presented to employees are the following "My manager listens to me," "I feel genuinely appreciated at this company," "I have the flexibility I need to balance my work and personal life," "My pay is fair for the work I do" and "I believe this company is going in the right direction."
Once the surveys are completed, WorkplaceDynamics run statistical tests to look for any questionable results. It disqualifies a small number of employers based on those tests.
The results you will see on Pages 6 and 7 are the rankings based on employees' reactions to those statements. Workplaces are grouped into size bands - large, midsize and small - based on the number of employees.
For southeastern Wisconsin this year, the Top Workplaces list includes the top 22 large companies (defined as those with 500 or more employees in the region), the top 44 midsize companies (with 150 to 499 employees in the region) and the top 70 small companies (with 50 to 149 workers in the region).
Employers are placed in size levels because smaller employers tend to score higher than midsize employers, and midsize employers tend to score higher than large employers.

Examiner report for Unit 1 (Jan 2008)
Question (a) : Using an example in each case, identify two different factors of production which may be needed for the production of pizzas that are delivered to homes
Comments of examiners: A small number of candidates gave land as an example of a factor of production but then gave a wrong example that did not refer to the site or raw materials characteristics.
Question (b) : State and explain two possible determinants of the increase in demand for high quality pizzas
Comments of examiners : The best answers usually referred to a change in income/disposable income as a possible determinant. A lot of candidates drew extensively on the first five lines of the case study. The majority of these answers, however, did not recognise the reasons given as being the taste / fashion determinant of demand. Another weakness was that this same so-called determinant was used for a second time.
Question (c) i : With reference to the data, use a supply and demand diagram to show how the global price of mozzarella cheese has increased.
Comments of Examiners : The original intention of this question was to award a mark for answers that explicitly recorded $1940 and $3000 on the vertical axis, hence the line reference.
Question (c) ii : Explain how the global market of cheese might change with the release of US stock piles
Comments of Examiners : This question caused problems for many candidates for the reason stated above. Given the context, it is difficult to see candidates confusing 'stockpile' with 'stocks', as used to describe a synonym for shares. So not as many candidates as might have been expected gained four marks for some simple market analysis of the sudden release of the additional supply of US cheese onto the market. Although not required, a diagram could achieve three marks.
Question (d) ii : Explain the significance of the price elasticity for mozzarella cheese producers
Comments : There was considerable confusion between revenue and profits when referring to the effects of an increase or decrease in price. Only a handful of candidates stated that the 0.2 estimate indicates that there are seemingly few close substitutes for mozzarella cheese. Rather more candidates explained that the statistic was an estimate and that producers should bear this in mind when making pricing decisions.
Question (e) : Using evidence provided, comment on the extent to which the market for high quality pizzas may be considered to be one of monopolistic competition
Comments : To obtain marks though, it was essential that the written answer was applied to the high quality pizza market.
As in previous examinations, there were some weak answers from candidates who wrote about 'monopolistic' and not 'monopolistic competition'. These answers did not gain marks due to the confusion with monopoly. Two marks were most typical for commenting that the market was most likely an oligopoly due to the dominance of well known brands. Rather more comment was needed for full marks; for example, that data was needed to make a proper assessment or further information was needed on some of the other characteristics of an oligopoly
Question (f) : Discuss the extent to which the increase in the global price of mozzarella cheese is really of serious concern to all pizza producers
Comments : The main way that most candidates used to reach Level 4 was to distinguish between large and small pizza producers. This was usually done by considering how larger firms could benefit from economies of scale, particularly through the bulk purchasing of mozzarella cheese. Other possibilities were to make assumptions about the price elasticity of demand for pizzas or to discuss how other variable costs might be reduced. Some answers recognised correctly that all producers would have to bear the costs and that the market structure could have a bearing on pricing decisions. A high mark on this part required a discussion of more than one of these aspects.

Why does the aggregate demand has the downward slope ?
- Interest Rates :
In the economy, we have a fix amount of money. The price level representing for the amount of currency we have to spend to purchase something. If the price level is high, therefore we have to have a large amount of currency to purchase. And with low price level, the quantity of currency we have to purchase is less. Suppose that some of these money that we do not spend, will go to bank as a saving. It will lead to the rising in bank loans and therefore it will drive down the interest rate.
With lower interest rates, firms are easier to borrow and therefore the investment will increase, which leads to the increase in aggregate demand ( because Investment is one of factors determine the aggregate demand).
- Exchange rates :
When the price level falls, the interest rates is driven down and therefore it more likely to decrease the exchange rates. Lowering exchange rate can increase the net export because the price of export become cheaper. Price level falls, exchange rates fall, increase in net exports which contribute to aggregate demand >> therefore AD increase.
- Wealth :
The lower price level is, the more you can afford to buy >> therefore it increases the consumption and leads to the increase in aggregate demand.

Food is necessary to life and to maintain the national security. Efforts are often made to stabilize price and incomes of farmers. Most of the governments intervened to the agricultural market to ensure that an adequate amount of food is supplied at the acceptable price. The impact can be positive or negative to the economy depends on how the consumers and producers reflect to the policies. However, to the end, the circumstance is that the intervention of the government spill over the international trade in food products.
Intervening into the agricultural market by setting a barrier always is carefully considerable by the government. The price in free market has to be set by the demand and supply forces. We always have question that whether we are using our resources in the most efficiency way. The low price in the free market needs to be made by the increase in the productivity or the achieving economy of scales, not by supporting from government. So therefore intervening into the agricultural market often contents the fear that market fails in achieving productive and allocative efficiency. But in the other hand, appropriate policy at suitable time will bring benefit to the economy.
The most common type of trade barrier is the tariff. Tariffs discourage imports by rising
the price of the imported good, thus discouraging consumer purchases. Domestic
producers benefit from reduced competition and higher prices, and producers in exporting
countries are harmed by the reduction in the level of exports.
Unlike tariff, which allows goods flow into the market without limit, quota fixes the quantity of import products that can go legally to the economy. The function of the quota is, by reducing the available of import goods in the market, the price of import product will rise and therefore it brings to domestic products more competitiveness.
Quotas can have unintended side effects, as illustrated by the U.S. sugar program. Selected countries are each allocated a fixed quantity of sugar which they can legally export to the U.S. These quotas protect U.S. producer prices, which are higher than world prices. Over time, high U.S. sugar prices have encouraged increases in domestic sugar production. Corn growers have become major supporters of the U.S. sugar program because the higher U.S. sugar price resulting from the quota led food manufacturers to substitute high fructose corn syrup (HFCS) for sugar. Therefore, with the sugar program, production of HFCS has been highly profitable; without the sugar program, sugar prices would have been lower and HFCS production might not have been profitable.
Barrier entries also bring to the war in economy. In most cases, losses equally taken by both countries. . For example, the EU has banned the use of growth hormones in cattle production in member countries and has banned meat imports from animals which have been given growth hormones. This essentially eliminates all meat imports from the U.S., where use of growth hormones has been judged safe. The U.S. has challenged the ban and both sides claim to have a scientific basis for their position. Similarly, the U.S. has banned imports of all fruits and vegetables treated with ethylene dibromide, but other countries disagree with this decision.
In conclusion, international trading should be liberated. Each country has its comparative advantage, and the trading will have the circumstance that both economies will gain benefit. By eliminating the barrier in the agricultural market, it will bring benefit to the whole economy even though the cost is some domestic sector might get worse off. And more important, it will avoid the trading war which just will damage the economy

Phillip Curve
When there is an increase in unemployment rates, more people now are not spending much as before. Therefore it could be a decline in the consumption, which is one factor, determined the aggregate demand. The rate of unemployment strongly depends on the aggregate demand. So a raise in unemployment rate would lead to a fall in aggregate demand and therefore, the rate of inflation will be reduced.
However, this model is not always true. It can't explain the situation of the economy when there is a stagflation, which means that there is slower economic growth (or recession) combine with higher level of unemployment. So that new model has introduced base on the idea of Phillip Curve to explain it.Supposing the rate of inflation is now at 0, and therefore the rate of unemployment is at U. After time, the government realised that it is a high level of unemployment and they want to intervene to fix it. What they might do is to boost the demand for the market. After intervention, the unemployment rate is improved, it contracts from U to V. As there is a rise in demand, the inflation rate will increase as there is a rise in price level. Therefore prices get higher, and workers now required a higher real paid for their works.
However as there is a rise in their wages, workers now realised that their increase is just a nominal increase, therefore they might stop supply more labour and the output will return to its original. And finally, in the long run of Phillip Curve, there is a rise in inflation but a sustained in level of unemployment.
If inflation rises then exports become uncompetitive and so they fall. Exports are injections so AD falls which means unemployment raises.
If there is inflation then demand for Imports will rise and so leakages increase and so...unemployment rises.
If unemployment is low then exchange rates are high which makes imports competitive, exports not so...so unemployment raises.
So, really, inflation is high and unemployment is high; inflation is low and unemployment is low.
The exact opposite.
Or is this wrong...?
.... Absolutely true ...

Well I define it as my life's greatest challenge! I know I need more of it, but just the very need of it makes me grow more impatient for a taste this magical ingredient to life! How does one acquire such great endurance? Well, I sure can't tell you, but I'm guessing time helps. I have the persevering part down. Maybe the rest will come! :-)
One thing I do know is this: The longer we have had to wait for a baby, the more my heart knows that I will love being a mother. The longer we wait for information on this baby, the more I love this unknown little person with my heart and soul. How can you feel such a deep connection with someone you have never even met? I'm not sure, but it's there and filling my heart as we speak.
So maybe this crazy, elusive thing called patience is worth it. Maybe it will show up right when I need it. Let's hope!

'Jungle primary' and California: What to know
What are 'jungle primaries' and why could this election process shut democrats out of a few competitive races?
A little-known Republican congressional candidate in Southern California has received $137,000 in campaign donations from Democrats from across the U.S. ahead of Tuesday's primary.
But John Gabbard — a small business owner and Marine Corps veteran — rejected the Democrats' help Friday, accusing the party of "bringing its classic unethical tricks from the swamp in Washington to the shores of Orange County."
The Dems' backing of the GOP's Gabbard in California's 48th Congressional District seems to be part of an unorthodox strategy — not to help Gabbard, but to ultimately help the Dems get one of their own candidates to emerge from Tuesday's primary and appear on the November ballot.
It's part of some $5.4 million that the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee has spent on congressional races in Orange County in recent weeks, the Orange County Register reported.
Under California primary rules, the top two vote-getters Tuesday, regardless of party, will face each other in November. So if two Republicans top the field, the Democrats would be shut out of the general election.
That GOP shutout is likely to happen in the 48th District, because two of the candidates are well-known former Orange County GOP Chairman Scott Baugh and incumbent U.S. Rep. Dana Rohrabacher, the Register reported.
"The [Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee] machine is bringing its classic unethical tricks from the swamp in Washington to the shores of Orange County."
– John Gabbard, GOP candidate seeking a U.S. House seat
John Gabbard, a GOP congressional candidate, is a small business owner and Marine Corps veteran. (Facebook)
So the Democrats' best hope of getting one of their own — either businessman Harley Rouda or stem-cell biologist Hans Keirstead — to finish in the top two may be to back Gabbard, and hope he siphons enough votes away from Baugh or Roherabacher to eliminate one of them and help a Democrat advance.
Robocalls and radio ads funded by Democratic organizations have lavished praise on Gabbard's wartime service, touting him as a man who has "traveled the world keeping America safe" and who "evacuated hundreds of Americans threatened during an African coup."
At least one politcal watcher says Democrats are making a big mistake with their opposite-party financing.
"That's the kind of game plan that really turns voters off. That money would be so much better spent just on get-out-the-vote efforts."
– Jodi Balma, political science professor, Fullerton College
"That's the kind of game plan that really turns voters off," Jodi Balma, a political science professor at Fullerton College, told the Register. "That money would be so much better spent just on get-out-the-vote efforts."
Will the Democrats' plan work? Orange County voters will find out next week.
