Villiers, 2d duke of, 1628–87, English courtier; son of the 1st
duke. Brought up with the royal family and educated at
Cambridge, he was a strong royalist in the English civil war. In
1648 he escaped to the Continent, where he became a privy
councillor of the exiled Charles II. He accompanied Charles to
Scotland in 1650 and fought at Worcester (1651), but later
intrigues with Oliver Cromwell's government estranged him from
Charles. In 1657, Buckingham returned to England and married
Mary, the daughter of the Puritan general Thomas Fairfax of
Cameron. He hoped thereby to recover his estates, which had been
confiscated in 1651, but instead he was imprisoned until 1659.
After the Restoration (1660) he regained the favor of Charles II
and was one of the most powerful courtiers of the reign. Vain
and ambitious, he was known for his recklessness, quarrelsome

by floating a full-size Nautilus in Discoveryland's lagoon,
allowing visitors to descend into it and examine Nemo's ship for
themselves. Tokyo Disneysea took it even further and created the
Mysterious Island: Nemo's volcanic base, with a full-sized

-1.100429 | 4.308847 | -1 | Email RSS Twitter Facebook YouTube The True Cost of a Dome Home
Conflicting goals The initial cost of a Monolithic Dome is
usually the same as a custom-built, conventional home of equal
interior finish. If you planned on buying a $100,000 house, you
will probably have to pay $100,000 for your dome home. However,
the long-term, day-to-day costs of a Monolithic Dome will always
be lower. And the true cost of owning a dome home is
substantially less. There are two parties when a home is built:
the contractor and the owner. The contractor’s primary goal when
building the home is to make a profit. If it were otherwise,
s/he could not stay in business. The home owner’s primary goal
is to build the best home for the least amount of money. These
two goals, profit and value, are at odds with each other. The
profit a contractor wishes to make on a home is usually higher
than the actual profit gained. And the owner’s expectations of a
home are always much greater than his or her ability to buy one.

Veronique de Rugy hauls out a familiar argument today: we can't
rely on Social Security's trust fund to keep it healthy for the
next few decades. In practice, [] the trust fund and interest
payments it receives are simply accounting fiction. For years,
the federal government has been borrowing the Social Security
Trust Fund assets for its daily spending. The fund has nothing
left in it except IOUs from the federal government. In fact,
even the interest is paid in IOUs. Hence, the only way Social
Security will not go into the red this year and in future years
is if the federal government pays back Social Security. But
since the money has long ago been consumed, it must borrow money
from the public or raise taxes to pay its Social Security debts.
It's true: from a purely fiscal point of view, the Social
Security trust fund is a fiction. But while this is true as a

Congress, or failing to prosecute one single TBTF bank due to
their systemic nature, or eavesdropping on the AP, or recording
every American electronic communication, or selling weapons to

Democrats agree to let states permit exploration 50 to 100 miles
off their coasts. September 17, 2008|Richard Simon | Times
Staff Writer The measure would let states decide whether to
permit energy exploration 50 to 100 miles off their coasts,
ending a drilling ban that was put in place for much of the
California coastline in 1981 and expanded to much of the rest of
the United States in 1985. It would allow drilling 100 miles or
more offshore regardless of a state's wishes. The bill drew a
veto threat from the White House, which contended that it didn't
go far enough to generate new domestic supplies of oil and
natural gas and objected to a number of its other provisions,
including the repeal of oil industry tax breaks that it said
could discourage new exploration. Its prospects are uncertain
in the Senate, which may begin debating energy legislation as
early as Wednesday. The 236-189 House vote was, until recently,

territory for me on Monday evening, when I was writing my South
Carolina-Ole Miss game preview. After years of writing similar
stories and always finding a reason why a team was
winning/losing, there wasn't an answer in a defensive set or an
offensive strategy for that game. The Gamecocks had to make
shots early. That was all. USC had dug itself massive holes in
three of its past four games and never led in any of them. In
the other two games during the five-game losing streak (both on
the road), the Gamecocks played pretty well but didn't have the
defensive stop or two that could have meant a victory.
Throughout this season, the Gamecocks have never had an offense
that could dominate the opponent. That's not how they've been
constructed. Their best chance to score became the perimeter
game, since they were very deficient |

JACKSON, Miss. - In a nearly six-hour battle between two of the
top teams in the nation, the No. 12 ranked Ole Miss men's tennis
team fell behind 3-0 to No. 10 Mississippi State in the 16th
annual Mississippi Cup at River Hills Club, then saved seven
match points to make it interesting, before the Bulldogs closed
it out with a three-set win at four for the 4-2 victory. The
loss gives State their second straight win in the Mississippi
Cup and their fourth in a row overall. Ole Miss had won 26
straight in the series and 10 in a row in the Cup before State
won the regular season meeting two years ago to begin the
streak. Four of the matches went three sets, and unfortunately
for the Rebels, three of them went to State, including the

Video Promo for Guide Dogs From the Norwegian Association of the
Blind This is a very clever video from the Norwegian Association
of the Blind about gaining access for their guide dogs. It's
hard to believe that would be in an issue in a socially
progressive Scandinavian country, but seems like it is one. So
we hope this "Could Have Been Worse" video goes a long way in
making it easier for them and their wonderful dogs. Blog: Guest

12/02/1996 Release date: 12/01/1996 Originally published in
England in 1973 as The Heartclock, by Dick Morland, this
speculative novel is an early departure from the Dalziel and
Pascoe crime novels for which Hill (The Wood Beyond) has become
well known. In a country wracked by overpopulation, a teetering
economy is sustained by severely regulating the population. Matt
Matlock was the original sponsor of the bill that became the

installed in their hearts that will kill them when they reach
75, the current EOL, ""Expectation of Life."" Now that Matlock
has reached the age of 69, however, he's having more than a few
second thoughts about his draconian solution. Apparently, so are

possibly other static files (css, js, etc). Are they only used
for large/popular websites? Secondly, are they only really
beneficial when the images undergo some sort of processing (e.g.
resizing)? I'm not a server guy, so this is unfamiliar territory
for me. I'm working with IIS. Are there major differences if
it's done on a subdomain (images.mywebsite.com) on the same
server or on another separate machine. share|improve this
question 3 Answers 3 up vote 2 down vote accepted Using an
image server allows you to serve the images from shorter
requests. All the domain specific cookies get dropped. It also
makes it easier to set caching policies. If the static content
is on a separate server, you can set a caching policy for it
without caching your dynamic content. Securing the static
content is simpler as well. The server can be restricted to
answering only GET requests. Referrer restrictions can be added
as well, although they are easy to bypa |

1.088979 | 3.724738 | 29 | Take the 2-minute tour × I want to know what kind of kippah
would be worn by an "average" Jew in Manhattan in 1860. This is
for an historical impression. In "real life," I am
Conservative, but I know the movement did not exist yet. As far
as I know, Reform Jews (brand new at the time) did not wear
kippot. I'd prefer to wear one since I do in real life. So I
guess my historical impression must be Orthodox, but not
Hasidic. Can anyone point me in the right direction?

the usual conclusion. Yeah, sure, it's a four-seat drop-top with
the coveted blue-and-white roundels at each end, but don't
assume it's only good for running between cheerleading practice
and the mall. BMW's new 1-series convertible is a seriously good
driver's car that looks even better in the metal than the coupe
on which it's based. And Godammit, it's not a chick car! If
BMW's newest convertible were merely a boulevard-cruising
frontin' machine, surely its PR team would have flown the first
pack of international journalists to the south of France to
frolic on the beaches of Nice and simply take in the beauty of
its latest sunchaser. Instead, BMW let us have a go on the
challenging mountain roads-cum-sheep paths outside of Valencia,

it's next to an 8-foot column of felt and a daunting black block
that looks like a war monument made of Legos (it is made of
Legos), the copper seems like an accident. It's not. Nor is the
black splotch on the left breast pocket of a linen shirt that

buys? Thursday - 7/21/2011, 8:53am ET grocery shopping With a
cart you are less likely to buy junk food. (AP) UNDATED - If
you've thought that grabbing a shopping basket at the grocery
store would keep you from spending money, think again. A group
of European professors found just the opposite. The basket
hanging on your arm makes you less likely to make wise choices,
the study found. Instead, you pick up instant gratification
items, usually items that are light and easy to grab. You are
not as likely to drop a watermelon in your basket or bag
vegetables if you have a basket on your arm. Researchers found
shoppers who push a shopping cart are six times less likely to
make an impulse purchase at the cashier. The study is in the
"Journal of Marketing Research." Follow WTOP on Twitter.
