5.022031 | 0.898663 | 13 | Desperately Seeking Susan Soundtrack The soundtrack includes
the smash hit "Into The Groove" by Madonna, along with nine
other tracks by artists like Iggy Pop; Run DMC; The Fixx; Carly
Simon, Aretha Franklin; Junior Walker; Betty Everett; Dee Dee
Sharp, and Marshall Crebshaw. It's a mix of 60's, 70's, and 80's
music. If the viewer enjoys Madonnas music from this period in
her career, I highly recommend her CD titled "You Can Dance".
It's full of great club remixes of her greatest early dance hits
including "Into The Groove", "Holiday", "Spotlight" and others.
This CD was released in 1987, but is mostly all music from her
"Desperately Seeking Susan" days. Can you help with song track

"Rosanna" by the band Toto was written for and about Rosanna

navigation, search Bump firing is the act of using the recoil
of a semi-automatic firearm to fire multiple shots in rapid
succession, which very crudely simulates the discharge of a
fully automatic firearm. This process involves holding the
foregrip with the non-trigger hand, releasing the grip on the
firing hand (leaving the trigger finger in its normal position
in front of the trigger), pushing the rifle forward in order to
apply pressure on the trigger finger from the trigger, and
keeping the trigger finger stationary. During a shot, the
firearm will recoil considerably ("bump" back) and the trigger
will reset itself; then the non-trigger hand would naturally
force the firearm back to the original position, pressing the
trigger against a stationary finger again, thereby firing
successive shots. This technique is usually used for
entertainment, as the drawback of decreased accuracy eliminates
any conceivable "tactical" advantage that might be gaine |

With the rise in popularity of mobile devices, such as smart
phones, tablets, and e-readers, the question of whether it is
better to read something on an electronic device or in print has
become even more complicated. The answer is just as confounded.
To truly know the environmental impact of a product, you need to
assess it from production to disposal (which hopefully involves
recycling!). Although a full environmental assessment of all
options is not possible here, I will attempt to give an overview
of the environmental impact of electronic devices and paper. A
piece of paper releases 0.03 pounds of carbon dioxide
equivalents (the amount of greenhouse gases in terms of carbon
dioxide impact). If the paper has 100% recycled post-consumer
content, it produces a lot less-0.017 pounds of CO2 equivalents.
In terms of newspapers, 1 ton of newsprint kills 12 trees. The
average recycled content for newspapers in the U.S. is only 35%.

Comments The Legacy Of Heresy Hunting text size A A A Heresy
hunting seems to have become quite a popular pastime with many
radio broadcasters and internet bloggers. Recently I ran across
a response by Tim Challies ( concerning some heresy hunters
coming after him. He is a Christian blogger, author and fellow
pastor who holds to what most would call a "reformed" theology.
I for one cannot even fathom why the heresy hunting crowd would
go after such a person with this background. However, Tim is not
the first person from a standard theological position that these
"Christian watchdogs" have gone after. Hank Hannegraff of the
Christian Research Institute took it upon himself to go after
widely known Presbyterian pastor and author, Dr. D. James
Kennedy. There have been many well respected men and women of
God who have been slandered, criticized, and black balled by

bestselling Millenium Trilogy. The books have sold 65 million
copies worldwide, and the three Swedish films have done
blockbuster business throughout Europe and excessively well

mohawked elephant in the room though is David Fincher‘s American
remake/adaptation that hits theaters this week. Was it
necessary to remake something already popular on such a global

Benefits Group's Support Bill designed to encourage savings
through temporary and permanent tax breaks The House GOP
Solutions Group for Savings Restoration issued March 24 a
blueprint for the upcoming introduction of the Savings Recovery
Act, which immediately won support from the American Benefits
Council. The proposal from the Solutions Group, which is led by
House Republican leader John Boehner (R-Ohio), provides a
Republican alternative to stimulate the economy and provide tax
breaks to encourage increased savings for retirement and
college, and to make investments now through lower capital gains
taxes. In introducing the proposal, Boehner said that "Recent
polling suggests that Americans' concerns about their savings
even trumps concerns about losing their jobs." Unfortunately, he
continued, "Washington Democrats have done nothing to address
this savings crisis. In fact, Washington is pursuing policies

price of Procter & Gamble (PG) has risen by 24% over the past 12
months. At $78.82, the stock is trading near its 52-week high of
$82.54- just reached in last month- and offers a 3.1% dividend
yield. Despite the notable price appreciation, I believe
investors can still consider buying this solid dividend stock at
the current price level. My view is based on the following 5
reasons: 1. PG shares are reasonably valued relative to its
comparables. According to the table shown below, PG's consensus
revenue, EBITDA, and EPS growth estimates underperform the comps
averages. On the profit side, however, PG demonstrates a better
performance as its various profitability margins are above par.
But the firm's ROIC metric is below the peer average. In terms
of leverage and liquidity, PG's debt load is fairly in line with
the comps given its lower debt to capitalization ratio, but

Democrats can’t run on their record, so they are lobbing false
claims on against the GOP to win the female vote.. In the 2010
midterm elections, the gender gap disappeared for the first time
since the Reagan era. More Republican women were elected to the
House than ever before, and four out of six current female
governors are Republicans. In 2010, Republicans won the women's
vote over Democrats by 49 percent to 48 percent, exit polls
showed. Ever since, the Democratic political strategy has been
to make female voters, who comprise more than half the
electorate, their No. 1 target. The stakes are high: Democrats
can't afford to lose the women's vote again if they expect to
keep the White House and the Senate. This fall, Republicans need
to pick up only four seats to take control of the Senate. The
problem for Democrats is they can't run on their record: The

carrying a diesel-like substance into a river, officials said
Thursday. Efforts were under way to keep the cars from falling
off the slowly sagging bridge and then pump out the yet-
unspecified but potentially flammable liquid. No injuries were
reported. "It appears that the bridge is failing," said
emergency management director Bruce Burrell. The train derailed
after a section of the bridge dropped two feet Thursday morning.
Each car could have 80,000 pounds of flammable product, said
acting Fire Chief Ken Uzeloc. He could not specify the liquid. A
sixth car on the bridge is an empty oil tanker, he said.
Canadian Pacific spokesman Ed Greenberg said the bridge gave way
after most of the eastbound train had crossed. "The (derailed

the present, and they like to be comfortable." More importantly,
perhaps, "They understand velocité," he says, pronouncing the
word in French and spinning his arm in circles to demonstrate.
"The fastest one gets the prey." Dominique is the same way.
"Me, I like fast," he says. "When I was in Paris, I don't like
to walk. You know in the subway? I like to run. I like that," he
says, smiling, relishing the thought, "velocité." "They can
read your mind very well," he adds. This, he explains, is not
ESP but evolutionary. "If they go after the prey, they have to
read the mind of the prey." Cats are not without empathy,
however. "Well, they help you," Dominique says softly. "When you
feel weak or tired, they come to you to comfort you. It's
interesting, really. When they realize you are down or stressed,
it's amazing: They pick it |

Bear Rock Text only version In the Black Hills in Crook
County, northeastern Wyoming, a large plug of volcanic rock
rises dramatically above the surrounding countryside. Now,
Devils Tower may seem a good name for this enormous plug of rock
but that’s just the name that the white men gave to it. The
people who had lived here for many thousands of years before the
arrival of the white men knew better. They knew rock had nothing
to do with the devil. Indeed most of the tribes that lived in
that area had a very different name for the rock, they called it
the Bear Rock. Up and down its sheer sides are deep, long
streaks and gashes. Visitors often ask how they came to be there
and that is a very interesting story. Listen well and I will
tell you. The story begins a long time ago, when two young
Sioux boys managed to get themselves lost in the prairie around
their homeland. They hadn’t mea |

4.427529 | -4.372363 | 0 | Wednesday, January 21, 2009 Kent to Announce Retirement The
all-time home run leader for second basemen, Dodger infielder
Jeff Kent is announcing his retirement tomorrow at Dodger
Stadium, ending what is likely a Hall of Fame career. Look,
I know that some of my fellow Sons don't agree with me, but I
for one am happy that Kent spent some of his career with the
Dodgers. Sure, he's a crusty old curmudgeon whose divisiveness
and lack of clubhouse leadership helped catalyze the Dodgers'
disastrous freefall out of the playoffs in 2007. But his bat
was oftentimes the only one with pop in a lineup that had no
other pop to show. Sure, one could hear his knees creaking from
the upper deck, when Kent would topple over to one side trying
in vain to stop a ground ball. But he leaves with a Dodgers
tenure that was largely professional--nothing more, nothing less
--and his porn-stache and statistical record intact. And, he
never broke a bone "washing his truck" while he was a Dodger.
Fare thee well, Mr. Kent. Somew |

the Misesians October 8, 2001 The government is probably no
more interventionist-minded than the United States, and all
governments seek ever more power and are limited, as Ludwig von
Mises pointed out, only by the level of public resistance. But
Guatemalans do not have a long history of well-developed private
enterprise, and thus they are capital-starved to the point that
even small hindrances to trade are felt very strongly. The
annual output of the country is $16 billion, which is less than
half of the new spending the US government authorized after the
terrorist attack. Last year, the US and the IMF took a look at
Guatemala with an eye toward fixing up the economy, with the
goal, of course, of reshuffling the country's loan portfolio.
After extensive study, the conclusion of the geniuses was the
following: the country needs more financial transparency and
higher taxes. Now, the financial transparency issue is a red
herring. It helps the |

-1.388018 | 4.39115 | -1 | Germany's solar subsidies Fed up Germany’s support for solar
power is becoming ever harder to afford See article Readers'
comments The implication of the article is that Germany is
paying too much for solar. This may or may not be true, although
in all fairness Germany sets/resets the rate every year so it is
easily fixed. In addition germany offers different tariffs for
different size systems, meaning this is even easier to fix. But
the author's math (or his logic) is flawed--not sure which is
worse. Why is it so hard to compare distributed generation to
retail rates, and central generation to wholesale rates? A
kilowatt at the plant does NOT equal a kilowatt at the home.
While that hasn't mattered much in the past (because solar makes
up such a small percent of Germany's power) it may in the
future. Even without the ~15% one off cut that appears likely in
April, a 10%/yr reduction eliminates the premium for solar in
about 5 years. Lastly--and this is nit-picking--in what other
industry is a 10%/ |
