In a statement posted on Twitter on Friday, McIlroy said he was invited to play a round of golf with the President last weekend, and that whether or not one respects the person in that position, "you respect the office that he holds."
His statement follows a backlash on social media from fans angered by his decision to play with Trump.
McIlroy, a professional golfer from Northern Ireland, points out that he also plays golf with friends and family even when he doesn't agree with everything they say or do.
"It was, quite simply, a round of golf. Golf was our common ground, nothing else," he said.
"I've travelled all over the world and have been fortunate enough to befriend people from many different countries, beliefs and cultures.
"To be called a fascist and a bigot by some people because I spent time in someone's company is just ridiculous. I hope, to some degree, this clarifies my decision to accept the invitation."
According to a picture posted by Clear Sports, a golf technology company, McIlroy, one of the top-ranked golfers in the world, hit the links with the US President at his Trump International Golf Club in Florida.
McIlroy is quoted by No Laying Up as saying that Trump "probably shot around 80" through 18 holes, eight strokes above the course's par 72 layout. "He's a decent player for a guy in his 70's!" he reportedly said.
The reported 18 holes of golf contradicted how White House spokeswoman Sarah Huckabee Sanders described Trump's visit to the golf course during a briefing with reporters on Sunday, when she said he "played a couple of holes."
Confronted by McIlroy's comments about playing 18 holes with the President, Sanders said the President "intended to play a few holes and decided to play longer."

Glossary of terms on Wall Street's intersection with oil
WASHINGTON — The relationship between Wall Street and oil prices is complex. Here's a glossary to help understand the interplay between finance and energy prices:
Barrel: 42 gallons of oil.
Commodities: Things such as oil, natural gas, grains or precious metals that can be purchased in advance at a price that speculates what the product will cost at a specific future date.
Dark markets: Where big Wall Street players enter into private contracts, called swaps, with another party. Sometimes called over-the-counter markets.
Exchange-traded funds: ETF's operate much as mutual funds do, but they're traded on stock exchanges throughout the day instead of having a single price at the end of the trading day. Through ETFs, big Wall Street banks can offer investors a chance to invest in commodities indices.
Futures: Contracts for future deliveries of a commodity.
Hedge exemption: Companies that take deliveries of oil are exempted from position limits because they use the futures markets to manage the risk from volatile prices. This exemption was extended in the early 1990s to include Wall Street banks and institutional investors if they invested in unregulated derivatives markets.
Index Investment: The practice by which big investors such as pension funds allocate a percentage of their assets under management to an index of different commodities. Such investments assume that prices will rise, and they're weighted, so that, for example, 40 percent of an index investment might go into oil futures, 20 percent to gasoline futures, another 10 percent to soybean futures and so forth.
Oil contracts: Contracts that grant the obligation or the right to buy oil at a specific price at a specific date in the future. Oil contracts held by speculators far outweigh those held by large fuel consumers such as airlines and trucking companies.
Position limits: Futures markets limit the number of contracts that a speculator can hold to prevent excessive speculation from driving prices artificially high or low.
Swaps: Private contracts that transfer, or swap, exposure to risk. A large oil producer might lock in a fixed price for its oil over a period of two years at, say, $60 a barrel. The producer might then enter a swap, in which a speculator is betting that oil prices will rise higher than that. Over the two years, the speculator will either pay the producer or receive money from the producer, depending on whether oil prices are above or below that $60 a barrel.
Swaps dealers: Issuers of swaps contracts, mostly large Wall Street banks.

From Timothy:
Residents of Reston anticipating the opening of the Silver Line late this year, may be in for a surprise as the cost of the daily commute will jump significantly.
The first phase of the Silver Line will start at Wiehle Avenue. At present, Reston residents can travel from this area with free parking, a net bus fare of $1.10 (taking in account the 50-cent transfer discount) to West Falls Church and a train fare of $3.95 to Metro center or $4.30 to Union Station. The total daily round-trip communing cost to these stations is $10.10 to $10.80.
Once the Silver Line opens, free parking will vanish. If other Fairfax County park-and-ride lots are any indication, the daily cost of parking will be set at $4.75. According to Metro representatives at recent open houses, the train fare from Wiehle Avenue to downtown DC will be at the maximum rate of $5.75.
The round trip cost of commuting to people parking will increase to $16.25 – a jump of about 50 to 60 percent. For those who take a bus to Wiehle Avenue, it will be $13.70, an increase of 26 to 35 percent. Those who are able avoid parking and buses with a drop and roll at the kiss and ride will see an increase of 33 to 45 percent.
Anyway you cut it, the convenience of the Metro will come at a cost.

INDIANAPOLIS, Jan. 4 (UPI) -- Andrew Luck sparked a furious second-half comeback Saturday, rallying the Indianapolis Colts to a 45-44 win over Kansas City in an AFC wild card playoff game.
Luck overcame three interceptions to throw for 443 yards with four touchdowns -- including a go-ahead, 64-yard TD pass to T.Y. Hilton with 4:29 remaining -- as the Colts overcame a late 28-point deficit with one of the biggest comebacks in NFL post-season history.
Luck also scored on the recovery of a Donald Brown fumble at the Kansas City 2-yard line midway through the fourth quarter, drawing the Colts to within 41-38.
The Chiefs then rallied with the second of Ryan Succop's second-half field goals at the 5:40 mark. But on the next drive, Luck (29-of-45 passing) threw a bomb to Hilton, who split the defense for a long score and the Colts' first lead of the game.
Quarterback Alex Smith couldn't rally the Chiefs on their last-gasp drive, sending the fourth-seeded Colts into the AFC semifinals.
Hilton ended with 13 catches for 224 yards -- third-most ever in a playoff game -- and two touchdowns, helping Indianapolis outscore Kansas City 35-6 down the stretch.
Smith completed 30-of-46 passes for 378 yards, four touchdowns and no interceptions for the Chiefs, who played nearly all the game without star running back Jamaal Charles (concussion).
Kansas City fell to 0-8 in its last eight playoff games.

It has been a little bit since I wrote, but I have a lot to tell. My mysterious absence is due to a couple things. The first is I am moving and have been going back and forth between two states. The transition is a process within itself, so that is one of the things. I still have packing left to do, moving trucks, cleaners and carpet cleaners coming.
The last thing is I am working on my very last two online courses for my bachelor's degree. The classes are extremely tough and all comprehensive so more difficult then all my other classes. Of course, being pregnant with all of this going on, I become extremely exhausted and have less energy.
The last time I wrote I was not that far along in my pregnancy. I did have an ultrasound done at 15 weeks, but the baby would not cooperate. I still do not know the gender of this baby. Right now I am 23 weeks along, which about six months roughly. The baby will be here in four months which is coming up pretty quickly. For me the pregnancy will be quick since I missed most of my first trimester not knowing I was pregnant.
The baby has been moving with little kicks and movements here and there. Sometimes I get these really sharp pains in my stomach; at times they can even bring me to tears. They are not the Braxton-Hicks contractions, which are even more severe than the pain I just mentioned. I did make the purposeful mistake of eating of eggs. I really thought I could get away with it! Yeah ... no the baby did not care for that trick. I paid for it by quickly running to the bathroom.
I have been having cravings. One of them is chocolate, and not just any kind: a chocolate cake. It tastes five times better than when I am not pregnant and I just indulge in it.
As far as my body goes my fingers have gotten more on the chubby side. I cannot wear my rings at the moment. Shoe shopping is not as fun either since my feet are wider. This makes my mood change sometimes to sad.
Speaking of moods: When I am hungry my husband knows to stay away from me. I can become super irritable about almost anything. For instance, we had gone to McDonald's for lunch and started arguing about fries. Looking back, that was a very silly and pointless argument. That is just part of being pregnant.

Dark Souls 2, the sequel to From Software's 2011 action-RPG was announced at the VGAs today.
I was traveling back from Los Angeles after spending some time previewing BioShock Infinite when the announcement was made: Dark Souls 2 is a reality. The much-anticipated sequel is no longer merely the stuff of rumor and speculation. Now it's the stuff of speculation entirely.
I have three words, and three words only: Praise the sun!
Oh, and prepare to die, of course. From Software's Dark Souls sequel will most likely be just as punishing as either of the previous Souls games.
There's not much to go on in the trailer itself, which is no longer on YouTube, but can be seen over at Kotaku. Hopefully an HD version gets released soon. When it does, I'll post it here.
The trailer is pre-rendered footage, so we get mostly a sense of the world. Dragons, fire-spewing mountains, dark forests, strange masked figures. All the good, dark fantasy the series is known for.
"Dark Souls 2 will offer loyal fans exactly the kind of demanding challenges and never-ending struggle that became the hallmark of this whole series," according to publisher Namco Bandai.
"Dark Souls II retains the core essence of Dark Souls while evolving to present new twists and challenges that are sure to please longtime fans and attract new comers to the series," said Carlson Choi, Vice President of Marketing for Namco Bandai. "FromSoftware is going to take a very dark path with Dark Souls II; players will need to look deep within themselves to see if they have the intestinal fortitude to embark on this journey."
"This new chapter in the Dark Souls saga presents opportunities for us to drive innovation in gameplay design, develop an entirely new story, and expand the scope of the world in which the player interacts with the game," said Tomohiro Shibuya, From's director for the Dark Souls sequel. "We have taken these necessary steps with Dark Souls II in order to evolve the overall experience of the Dark Souls series. The entire development team is striving to make Dark Souls II an experience that is fresh while not forsaking its roots in presenting players with challenging gameplay. Our goal is to surprise and delight our fans with new experiences and plot twists while enticing new players to join our dark journey."
Judging by the trailer, the series is staying true to its roots. Dragons, the undead, strange female sorcerers...it's all here in spades.
You are of the undead. Forever without hope. Forever without light.
Yeah, that sounds like Dark Souls to me. The questions remain: will this be the same world as the original Dark Souls? Will it be a sequel or a prequel? Another story entirely? It's hard to say with so little to go on, but the undead theme makes me think we're sticking to the same mythology as Dark Souls. The leap between Demon's and Dark made the second game a spiritual successor; I get the feeling this will be an actual narrative sequel/prequel.
Namco Bandai has confirmed that the game will launch on Xbox 360, PS3, and PC though no hard date has been set.
And yes, I'm dying to play this already.
More to come as soon as I know more.

Sausage with Peppers and Onions (Healthy Style!)
When it comes to southern Italian food, this is a very traditional dish. It's usually made with delicious Italian pork sausage and regular pasta. It's not the kind of thing you want to eat when you're trying to eat light or just healthier. But when you substitute turkey sausage for the pork sausage and when you use whole wheat pasta instead of regular pasta, this dish can be very healthy. There's a lot of great whole wheat pastas out there that not only are high in fiber, but are high in protein. Barilla Plus pasta is very high in protein because it contains legumes - specifically, lentil and chickpea flours. Bell peppers are incredibly healthy - they are high in fiber and contain more Vitamin C than an orange.

The U.S. Marine Corps has reversed a ban on Facebook, Twitter, YouTube and other popular Internet communication tools on its network.
An order released Monday lifted a ban issued last August while the Corps reviewed its policies for the use of social media, Google Docs, blogs, e-mail and instant messaging on its own Marine Corps Enterprise Network.
The order came a month after the Pentagon issued its revised Internet-use policy. Similarly, the Marine Corps order – like many corporate policies – still bans access to porn or gambling sites, as well as "illegal weapons, military/extremist activities, terrorists activities" or other "inappropriate" content.
And military commanders can still temporarily limit access to the Internet to protect the safety of troops.
"The Marine Corps embraces and strives to leverage the advances of Internet-based capabilities," the order read.
This was an about-face from August, when the Corps' top brass said they were worried that those sites placed their personnel at risk because they were "a proven haven for malicious actors and content."
An ex-Marine who now works for Palo Alto's Facebook said he was "heartened" by the change.
"Social media services like Facebook play an important role in people's daily lives and are a particularly beneficial link between those stationed around the world and their families at home," said Don Faul, Facebook Director of Online Operations. "We're also pleased to see that the guidance encourages Marine units to create a more robust online presence."
Still, as the military publication Stars and Stripes reports, some Army and Air Force personnel stationed in Europe still can't get on social networking sites because officials there are still weighing security and bandwidth issues.
The Marines, like the other military service branches, have already established an active social media presence on Facebook, Twitter, YouTube and Flickr.
"This is a new way to keep the public informed about the Corps," Gunnery Sgt. Chanin Nuntavong told Stars and Stripes. "We understand Marines are the best spokesmen for the Corps and understand they play an important role in telling the Marine Corps story."

How to
Use the Activities
Inquiry Question
The following activities will help students to understand the inextricable connections between wheat fields, flour mills, and railroads during the late 19th and early 20th centuries.
Activity 1: The Web of Interdependence
Activity 2: Reactions to Interdependence
Activity 3: Change Over Time in the Local Community
Then ask students to look for current or former businesses in their community whose success or failure resulted from the growth or decline of another industry. The coming of the automobile provides examples of both. It created a need for car sales and repair businesses, gasoline stations, and tire and muffler stores, but made livery stables, blacksmiths, and carriage makers obsolete. Ask students to identify any properties in the community that are or were associated with any of the businesses they found. Then have them write a short paper in which they compare the development of their community with that of Minneapolis. Have them note similarities, differences, and changes over time.

A NEW development of deluxe offices, homes, shops and car parking could start springing up next to Winchester Station early next year.
The city council's cabinet heard details of how land in a sweep from the Register Office to the Cattle Market car park could be transformed, creating 500 jobs and adding £1m to the local economy.
Councillors were keen to kick-start the Station Approach development, after hearing that a deal to buy land next to the Records' Office from Hampshire County Council could be signed in as little as a month.
They gave the go-ahead for up to £100,000 to be spent doing the development's initial architectural, archaeological, surveying and costings work, so that a more detailed document can be prepared for the cabinet.
The council has already been approached by a cluster of firms looking to take up office space in the new buildings, with one wanting to make the city its regional head office.
Council leader Keith Wood said: "There's an urgency about this – for financial reasons. Once we buy the land we will be paying for it. If we are nowhere near developing it, the council will have to carry the cost in the interim.
Referring to the slow-moving Silver Hill project he added: "We can't spend 15 years sorting this one out. If we can't get on with it it will be the council's fault.
"We need to work to make sure the entrance to the city (from the railway station) is worthy of the city – I don't think anyone could say it is now."
One obstacle to the scheme could be that the Cattle Market is in the middle of the main cemetery used by Romans and early Britons who once lived in Winchester.
A full archaeological survey and possible excavation work will be needed before any building work can go ahead.
St Paul's resident Karen Barratt was anxious that the Register Office, once the well-known South Western pub, should not be knocked down to make way for the development.
"It's a local landmark. I would hate to see it go," she said.
"I would like to see it returned to pub use or a restaurant. Most people living in the area think as I do. Sometimes when you attend meetings like this people like me feel as though it's a done deal, and the decision's been made."
The meeting heard how the council's buildings' team do not believe the Register Office has significant relevance in terms of its architectural merit.

Gonzalez back in center, Rox won't skip fifth starter
DENVER — Improved health and stated strategy were the double-barreled themes today in the pregame. Carlos Gonzalez, who had been battling a left hand injury, hit in the batting cage with no trepidation and returns to the lineup in center field.
Also, while the Rockies considered skipping the fifth starter's spot because of Monday's off day, that won't be the case. Tracy said he would announce either Friday or Saturday who would pitch Tuesday against the Mets at Coors Field. Tracy admitted that the team is weighing all options. Josh Fogg is in the mix. As is Russ Ortizon. Another alternative could be Brad Penny, who was released by Boston last night and clears waivers Monday. As the day has progressed, there are some concerns on how Penny would fit in the Rockies' clubhouse. He ended on bad terms with the Dodgers' last year. Again, that could play a part. Nobody wants to disrupt the chemistry right now.
Russ Ortiz is coming off a strong performance in Triple-A Colorado Springs.
Also, catcher Yorvit Torrealba will be the only player fined for Monday's fracas with the umpires. Torrealba had yet to receive the amount. The Rockies are pleased that he wasn't suspended, crediting the thorough investigation by MLB discipline czar Bob Watson. The reality is that the umpire Bill Miller, if he said the term the Rockies' alleged, was way out of line. Also, a final point on the incident and I will move on. Talked to pitching coach Bob Apodaca today, and he explained to me that he was trying to be a buffer in arguments with the umpires, namely when Huston Street exchanged words with Jim Joyce. Apodaca also was trying to calm the situation after the game. Veteran move by a coach recognizing the importance of the situation.
Big finish to the series today against the Dodgers. There are no such things as must-win games in August in baseball. But a victory today would make life a lot easier on the Rockies in the coming days, cutting the NL West deficit to two while keeping the Giants a minimum of three games back entering a series in San Francisco this weekend.
A look at the lineups:
SS Furcal
CF Kemp
RF Ethier
LF Ramirez
3B Blake
1B Loney
2B Hudson
C Ausmus
RHP Padilla (making Dodgers' debut)
CF Gonzalez
LF Smith
1B Helton

January 2017
By Mark Smeyers on January 29. 2017 in LamboNEWS.
When you talk to people and you mention you are driving a Lamborghini, chances are most of them will think about the Countach, the Diablo, the Murciélago or the Aventador ... and you might wonder why. It's simply because people recognize the special way the doors open on these V12 flagship models ... upward into the sky, the so-called scissor doors.
When the Lamborghini Gallardo was introduced back in 2003 it was probably the single most heard remark ... the doors open like on a normal car, many were a bit disappointed about that to be honest, and it didn't take long for several third party tuners to offer conversion kits so you could have those Gallardo doors open almost similar to the ones on the Murciélago ... heck you could now install Lamborghini doors on just about any car, it didn't have to be a Lamborghini in the end, but you could at least have the doors.
In 2014 Automobili Lamborghini SpA unveiled the successor to the Gallardo, the impressive V10 Huracan LP610-4, which became an instant sales success ... but once again the doors open in a normal way, not reaching for the sky like on the V12 Aventador model.
[For those that would love those trademark Lamborghini doors on their Huracan too]
Vertical Doors Inc located in the United States has developed a complete kit to install onto the Huracan that will transform the way the doors open into that famous Lamborghini style ... upward, and the best part: they also fit the Huracan Spyder and the Huracan RWD.
In the past you would have seen similar kits that would destroy your original door seals or needed a lot of modification and even welding to the original car, this isn't an option on a valuable exotic like the Lamborghini Huracan, so this kit from Vertical Doors Inc needs only minimal modification for the hinges to be installed, and because the doors first open horizontally before they can be lifted up the factory door seals remain intact.
The steel door hinges are manufactured in-house at Vertical Doors Inc in Lake Elsinore, California using 100% USA steel, laser cut for precision, and heat treated for hardening ... these hinges are TIG welded for the highest quality and strength ... Vertical Doors Inc offers a lifetime guarantee on these hinges, which bolt onto the original fixtures ... no welding is required at all.
Even tilting the doors up after opening is nearly effortless because of a set of German-sourced gas shocks, the highest quality possible, allowing opening and closing these large doors with ease, and while you can send your Huracan to the workshop in California to have these hinges installed, Vertical Doors Inc can also recommend a local, qualified body shop ... if you are really confident about your DYI skills you could even attempt to fit them yourself as they come with a complete manual and technical support if needed.

SABIAN is all about designing and creating cymbals and sounds that are right for you.
What style of music do you play? Do you know what cymbals and sounds you want? The choice can be overwhelming for even experienced drummers - let alone a novice buyer! With so many models and styles available, buying the right cymbal for your playing style is important.
For example, a very thin cymbal sounds great when tapped with a finger or played lightly with a stick in-store, because thinner cymbals respond easily. But if you're a metalhead who likes to thrash hard on your cymbals, it may not be strong enough to survive. Medium weight models may be a good starting point. From there you can move up or down in weight until you find a suitable sound.
In short, consider where and how you'll be playing your new cymbal, and test it in the shop the same way you will be playing it live.
Buying Tips
- Set the cymbal on a stand and angle it as you would in your set-up. Then sit and play it as you normally would. This will reveal how it feels and how much sound you'll hear from a playing position.
- Put yourself in the same frame of mind as when you're playing with your band and play at similar volumes, both as light and as loud as you would normally.
- Listen for where the sound kicks in or out. Some cymbals perform best within certain volume ranges.
- If the store allows, you may want to consider bringing your other cymbals along to test it in your set-up.
- Have the salesperson or a friend play the cymbal while you walk around the store. Does it project? Is it musical enough? Is it too loud? Not loud enough?
- Use your own drumsticks.
- The drum specialist at your music store can be a good source of information, and so can other, more experienced customers - don't be shy, ask questions and get opinions.
Remember, if you're a heavy hitter and like to play loud, choose bigger, heavier cymbals. Not only do they put out more volume, they're more durable and less likely to break. Smaller, thinner models are best for low-to mid-volume playing, because thin crashes are not durable or loud enough to play as a main crash in high-volume situations. Lastly, heavier rides and hi-hats will give you more definite sticking, for cleaner, clearer, penetrating strokes.

ATLANTA | Drivers who refuse to pull out of the left lane for a faster car - even one that is speeding - could be charged with a misdemeanor under legislation the House passed 162-9 Wednesday.
The measure, House Bill 459, was sponsored by Rep. Bill Hitchens, a Rincon Republican who is the previous head of the Georgia State Patrol.
"This is the good manners your mother should have taught you," he said, comparing it to golfers letting faster foursomes play through.
Penalties could be as much as $1,000 fine and 12 months in prison, but Hitchens acknowledged it would be hard to enforce.
"My reason for doing it is for education purposes," he said, saying angry drivers could react with road rage or spur accidents in an effort to get around slower motorists.
The bill now heads to the Senate for consideration.

McLaren M2B-Serenissima B. McLaren 1966
McLaren M2B-Serenissima B. McLaren 1966
McLaren M2B-Serenissima driven by Bruce McLaren at Brands Hatch in 1966.
A Last Corner illustration drawn with passion for the classic race cars enthusiasts. A unique automotive artwork ready to be hang as a high-quality print / poster.
SIZE (white margins included)
A3 | 29.7 x 42cm | 11.69" x 16.54"
A2 | 42 x 59.4cm | 16.54" x 23.39"
50 x 70cm | 20" x 27.5"
This high-quality giclée print is produced on an acid-free paper using archival inks to guarantee that they last a lifetime without fading or loss of colour.
The print includes a white border around the illustration to allow for future framing and matting, if desired.
The modern UV paper from Sihl 135g/m² is bleached to a bright white and offers the perfect foundation for reproducing the original colours with remarkable richness. A coating ensures it is incredibly robust and resistant to changes in temperature and splashes of water.
My printer uses the most modern, super-wide-format printing system from HP. For this premium poster, he uses eight colours, rather than four; light magenta and cyan inks allow additional sharpness, improved resolution, and finer tonality in lighter image areas.
Whichever format you choose, the colours will be equally impressive, the grey balance will be completely neutral, and the contours extremely sharp. After printing, he hardens the inks six times using UV light to make your print resistant to external influences. It will be at its best for years to come.
The Hahnemühle FineArt Rag fine soft matte surface 308g/m² is one of the most robust papers from Hahnemühle. It is made of 100% cotton and has a matte surface. With its soft and fine texture, this paper is very versatile and is just as well suited to colour prints as it is to deep blacks and pure whites. The Hahnemühle FineArt Rag is an amazing paper for all kinds of images and for high pictorial depth.
Hahnemühle's authentic art paper is regarded as top of the line. It is often used for exhibitions and limited-edition art prints.

The Esprit's handling was always leading man material, but its engine was little more than a walk-on extra. Today, Nice Price or Crack Pipe has an S2 that's had a cast change, and it says the SHO must go on.
While The Hangover was one of last year's most well received comedies, the overhangs on the Lincoln MK VI from yesterday were not greeted as warmly. Those massive protuberances caused near universal derision, although surprisingly only 65% thought those, plus the Avatar-aping interior, lackluster drivetrain and price were enough to push that car to crack-a-toa, and then on into the drugcano's hazy caldera. Whoa, I gotta' lay off those drinks with the little umbrellas in them.
Okay, so let's have something different today. One thing that usually makes a car - or person for that matter - stand out is when they've had a heart transplant. With people that change means you might not want to be sneaking up on them any more, or ask them to "pull my finger." With cars, it usually means the opposite - that you want to be a little (or a lot) more aggressive and forceful in playing with them.
Today's 1980 Lotus Esprit S2 was originally powered by the Lotus 907 four cylinder. That all-aluminum two-cam four valve engine sucked through a pair of Stromberg straws and farted out about 145-bhp in its U.S. guise. Not bad, and good for zero to sixty runs of less than 7 seconds, but not good enough to live up to what the sex-on-wheels Giugaro-designed body was promising.
That brings us to the heart transplant. The seller of this Esprit has ditched the torque-less wonder for something with a couple more cylinders and more than half-again as many ponies. That's because this Esprit is rocking an SHO motor out of a Ford Taurus. Staring in Ford's slippery sedan, the SHO gets 220-bhp out of 3.0 litres and could get that 3,300-lb family hauler to sixty in six and a half seconds. Imagine what it must do in a car weighing about 900 lbs less.
This is a very appropriate match up as the Yamaha-engineered SHO engine was originally intended to power Ford's Fiero-fighting Cobra ME. Once Ford got a good look at the anemic Pontiac two-seater they cancelled their own mid-engine development, and started looking for a new home for the nest of snakes atop the V6. There was room at the inn over in Taurus Town, and the rest is history. Well, Taurus SHO history, but you could make some history yourself in this gold over black plastic fantastic.
The Esprit is a uniquely assembled car. The mechanicals all attach to a central steel backbone, which tees at the nose for the front suspension mounts, and Ys at the back to cradle the engine. Atop that rests the fiberglass body which has first been shot into two molds - an upper and a lower - that are then joined at the middle. The joint is hidden by the rub strip that encircles the car, and the whole thing is then lowered onto the backbone. When you're riding in one, the only thing separating your ass from the road is that quarter inch of fiberglass and the ball-cup seat - which is also made of fiberglass.
Right behind those seats is a plywood bulkhead intended to keep errant fingers from slipping into a cog, or your hippie friend's hair from getting sucked into the intake. The SHO looks right at home back there, and strangely it looks like it bolts up to the Citroën five speed like it was born to be there.
Not only does it look teh hawt, but it sounds pants-rippingly good too-
The rest of the car is. . . oh who cares, just listen to that v6 howl again. That howl is all legal because the builder used the Ford ECU and kept the cats. That'll go a long way towards registering the car or deducing engine problems down the road.
The SHOtus here is offered on eBay with a By It Now of $15K, which is not bad. But savvy shoppers will want to go to the Craigslist ad to take advantage of the $5,000 lower price that bargain venue offers. That's right, $10,000 for this all-singing, all dancing SHO-powered Esprit. Is this a great country or what?
So, what do you think, does $10,000 for this SHOtus seem like a show-stopper? Or, does that ticket price set the stage for this Esprit to get a staring role in your driveway?
You decide!
Austin Craigslist for the $10K price, or eBay if you want to spend five grand more. If either ad goes the way of Elvis, you can catch 'em here- Craigslist and eBay. Hat tip to Hoon-Dai for the lead!

Healthcare.Gov's Flaws Found, Fixes Eyed
Site's Design Opened Door to Bottleneck That Persists
Government officials are considering rebuilding some parts of the federally run health-insurance marketplace that have been identified as the key flaws that blocked many consumers from getting coverage.
Much of the problem stems from a design element that requires users of the federal site, which serves 36 states, to create accounts before shopping for insurance, according to policy and technology experts. The site, healthcare.gov, was initially going to include an option to browse before registering, but that tool was delayed,...

Ocean Piracy - A Global Report (NEWS)
(Video NATOCommunity)
(HN, 4/23/12) - The number of worldwide attacks in January to March dipped to 102, down from 142 cases in the same period in 2011, the International Chamber of Commerce's (ICC), International Maritime Bureau's (IMB) Piracy Reporting Center in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia said the latest global piracy report.
However, the IMB cites 102 "incidents of piracy and armed robbery" for the first quarter of 2012, "with dangerously increasing numbers in West African waters."
According to figures released, "11 vessels were reported hijacked worldwide, with 212 crew members taken hostage and four crew killed. A further 45 vessels were boarded, with 32 attempted attacks and 14 vessels fired upon – the latter all attributed to either Somali or Nigerian pirates."
The 10 reports received from Nigeria in Q1 2012, equaled "the same number reported in Nigeria for the whole of last year. A further attack in neighboring Benin has also been attributed to Nigerian pirates. The reports include the hijackings of one product and one chemical tanker, between which 42 crewmembers were taken hostage."
"Nigerian piracy is increasing in incidence and extending in range. At least six of the 11 reported incidents in Nigeria occurred at distances greater than 70 nautical miles from the coast, which suggests that fishing vessels are being used as mother ships to attack shipping further afield," said Pottengal Mukundan, Director of the IMB Piracy Reporting Center
In addition, the report noted that "two crew members were killed when armed pirates boarded their bulk carrier 110 nautical miles off Lagos, Nigeria. Attacks in Nigerian coastal waters have further resulted in at least three crew kidnapped from their anchored vessel."
Despite the growing number of incidents in West Africa, Somalia continues to dominate figures "with 43 attacks, including the hijacking of nine vessels and the taking hostage of 144 crew. Somali pirates were also responsible for the hijacking of a Panamax bulk carrier at the end of March."
The report also indicated that while the number of 2012 incidents and hijackings are "less than reports for the same period in 2011 (97 incidents, 16 hijackings), it is unlikely that the threat of Somali piracy will diminish in the short to medium term unless further actions are taken."
Multiple navies - including a large US presence - patrol the Gulf of Aden and the wider Indian Ocean, and many private ships now carry armed guards.
The European Union Naval Force recently said it would expand its mission to include Somalia's coast and waterways - hunting for pirates inside the country for the first time, making its battle against piracy more proactive.
As of March 31, 2012, suspected Somali pirates still held 15 vessels with 253 crew members as hostages, with an additional 49 crew members being held hostage on land.
Africa isn't the only area of the world's oceans where piracy is a threat. The report pointed to a "noticeable increase in the number of armed robbery attacks in the Indonesian archipelago, up from five in the first quarter of 2011 to 18 in 2012."
The latest attacks may also be viewed on the IMB Live Piracy Map .

CBS naming Stephen Colbert as David Letterman's replacement on "The Late Show" isn't too surprising. There were only so many plausible candidates (among talk show hosts, comedians, actors and raunchy E! personalities) who could take Letterman's place when he exits the long-running show next year. Letterman changed the late-night TV game between his run on NBC's "Late Night" and starting the "Late Show" franchise in 1993. And while it's tough to replace a pop-culture icon, Colbert, in terms of pedigree and sense of humor, makes the most sense.
"We've had the smartest guy in late night for many years, and replacing Dave was no small feat," CBS Entertainment President Nina Tassler told Broadcasting & Cable. "We feel that Stephen really respects Dave's legacy."
In the aftermath of CBS' announcement Thursday, there are so many questions — especially given Colbert's own legacy with the character he created on Comedy Central's "The Colbert Report." (In a statement that wished Colbert the best, Comedy Central officials indicated that the show will wrap up near the end of the year.) As far as the new "Late Show," CBS said "specific creative elements" — location, producers and a writing staff — will be announced later.
Here are some of the bigger questions lingering as the next big late-night shuffle looms.
1) How will Colbert play on CBS vs. Comedy Central?
It's hard to tell how the mainstream audience will feel — but in a lot of ways, Colbert is similar to Letterman, with his self-deprecating, biting sensibility. That could play well among Letterman fans. However, it's difficult to predict, because most of the late-night audience probably only knows Colbert from "The Colbert Report," playing the fake, ultra-right-wing cable-news host. Or, as he first described the character to The New York Times in 2005: "He's a well-intentioned, poorly informed, high-status idiot." Obviously, Colbert will just be himself on "The Late Show." But can late-night viewers separate the two? As we just saw with the CancelColbert controversy — people were outraged when a joke on the show was presented out-of-context on Twitter — some people still don't get that Colbert's Comedy Central persona is satire.
2) So is this definitely the end of the character?
Yes. When "The Colbert Report" signs off, we will bid the bogus, often-outraged anchorman goodbye. "I won't be doing the new show in character, so we'll all get to find out how much of him was me," Colbert said in a statement via CBS. "I'm looking forward to it."
3) How much say did Letterman have in selecting Colbert?
Letterman and his production company own "The Late Show," but Variety reports that once he leaves, CBS will assume ownership. So Letterman didn't necessarily have to sign off on his replacement, although CBS execs have said that he was involved in the process. Letterman released a goofy statement about it, just to be supportive: "Stephen has always been a real friend to me. I'm very excited for him, and I'm flattered that CBS chose him. I also happen to know they wanted another guy with glasses."
4) Who will replace Colbert on Comedy Central?
There's still that long list of possible Letterman replacements — though that probably will get shorter, because Comedy Central looks for a certain kind of personality. E!'s Chelsea Handler makes the most sense, as she reportedly wants out of her current show — but that rumor could just be a negotiating strategy. Either way, Handler's wild personality would be a logical fit for Comedy Central's younger audience.
5) Who will be in Colbert's band?
That is one huge mystery. Almost all late-night shows feature a band, and they've become more hip lately, with the Roots accompanying Jimmy Fallon and Fred Armisen leading Seth Meyers' "Late Night" band. Colbert is musically talented — he did a stint on Broadway in Stephen Sondheim's "Company" and sings on his occasional Christmas specials. Elvis Costello is one of his favorites and a frequent musical guest, but Costello as late-night bandleader seems highly unlikely.

An abandoned Shelby County farm house doubled as a storage shed for goods stolen from an Eminence flea market, Eminence Police Maj. Kevin Kemper said last week.
Police recovered more than $7,500 in rare coins and other property, on Dec. 30, from the empty house near Simpsonville. There, two Eminence men allegedly hid items they looted from Treasures Flea Market on S. Main Street, Kemper said.

Last week I took advantage of the rare opportunity to watch the film components of Matthew Barney's entire Cremaster Cycle — the artist's monumental multimedia installation/performance piece consisting of sculpture, photography, installation and film.
The five films, which were being screened at Manhattan's IFC Center, almost defy written description: there are surreal creatures, abstract and remote settings, and a loose, coming-of-age plot to the cycle, something like A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man set in Narnia. Music is an integral part of the cycle, and composer Jonathan Bepler has scored nearly every moment of it. In Cremaster 3, the protagonist (played by Barney) rigs an elevator shaft in the Chrysler building as a harp — leaving the other empty shafts as drones — which a Gaelic-singing maître d' (played by Paul Brady) uses to accompany himself.
I saw the cycles in order by title (Cremasters 1 through 5 were filmed in 1996, 1999, 2002, 1995, 1997, respectively). This is an occupational hazard, admittedly, but as I watched the films, I wondered what it would be like if Barney were to direct an opera. Cremaster 5 offered the answer to that question: Barney set most of the film inside Budapest's State Opera House, with the Budapest Philharmonic playing in the pit, while a costumed climber (again played by Barney) climbs up, across and down the proscenium, as former Bond-girl Ursula Andress "sings" from the theater's Royal Box. (Soprano Adrienne Csengery does the actual singing.)
The result, however, is a bit of a letdown. Bepler, who is a talented orchestral composer, fails to create much variation in the vocal parts. Where he is otherwise capable of creating spontaneous rhythmic texture, he provides Csengery with what seems like one endless legato phrase, with a tepid orchestration underneath. She is less than pleasant to listen to: her intonation is spotty and she sings with one of the widest vibratos around. Andress, and her accompanying twin sprites, perform a campy lip-syncing job to go along with it.
With the proliferation of operas in high definition, it's possible to imagine Barney directing an opera, without omitting any of the media he synthesizes so well. Judging by the ending of Cremaster 5, I'd say the director may be ready to direct Rusalka.
– Tristan Kraft
More information can be found at www.cremaster.net, the IFC Center and the fan-site Cremaster Fanatic, where one can see Barney and family sitting at the MOMA's Marina Abramović exhibit, or the avant-garde artist modeling for Macy's in the late 1980's.

New Year, New Facebook Programs!
We kick off the new year with our SuperFans of the Year and a new photo-sharing program!
It's been over a year since we launched the SuperFan program on the Cisco Corporate Facebook page and with much success – from the level of submissions and engagement from our fans, to the recognition and coverage on various social media blog outlets. To kick off the New Year, we are bestowing the inaugural Cisco SuperFan of the Year award to Dimitar Krstevski and Sandee Weiner! They were chosen based on their level of engagement with the Cisco Facebook page and votes from the community. Big congrats and thank you!
Given the success of the SuperFan program, we are offering our fans another way to engage with us with the launch of our new photo sharing program titled, "Where in the World Do You Take Cisco?" We want to spotlight our fans and their experiences with Cisco products, technologies and the brand. Submit YOUR photos that capture everywhere and anywhere you take Cisco! Along with your photo, we also ask that you include a written description in 100 words or less that helps narrate the story behind your photo or image. Need help uploading your photos? Take a look at the Flickr Group FAQ page.
The program launches TODAY so start submitting your photos! For more information on "Where in the World Do You Take Cisco?" check out the program guidelines as well as the terms and conditions. You can also check out all of the submitted photos on our Cisco Facebook Flickr Tab. Looking forward to seeing your photos!!
More on our Cisco SuperFans of the Year:
Dimitar is from Gevgelija, Macedonia and was our very first Cisco SuperFan! We originally chose Dimitar as our first Cisco SuperFan for his continued engagement on our Facebook page as well as his awesome photo submission in Cisco's 3D glasses. Dimitar also received the highest amount of votes from our Facebook community. After hearing that he was named the Cisco SuperFan of the Year, Dimitar stated exclaimed, "being a Facebook fan is one thing, being a Cisco SuperFan is quite another, and now Cisco SuperFan of the Year, amazing!"
Sandee was our second Cisco SuperFan to be named and her fun personality definitely shown through on the Cisco Facebook page! We also thought her dedicated "fishcam" network was pretty awesome. Powered by Cisco, the "fishcam" uses a router and powerline AV Ethernet adopted to connect her home LAN to the internet, where fish enthusiasts from around the world can watch 6 of her 18 saltwater, freshwater and reed tanks – from anywhere anytime! Talk about using the Cisco network for some awesome and creative stuff!
Congrats to our Cisco SuperFans of the Year and make sure you start submitting your photos for the Where in the World Do You Take Cisco? photo program!

Congratulations both of you on being CISO (Super) Fan. I love Cisco indeed. Since I had updated my network with CISCO product. I got more good feedback from my clients.
By the way, I'd like to be a (Super)fan next year. |0|
VERY VERY proud of reaching SuperFan status with Cisco! I'm pretty passionate about technology and the way social collaboration brings folks together. FishCam has allowed me to connect with other *fish geeks* – impossible to do without live streaming video … it's not like taking the dog out for a walk! 😉 Thanks again!
For 2012, I plan on upgrading my network and improving both the quality 'n number of tanks displayed … with Cisco products of course!

Will You Pay for Hulu on the iPad? It May Be Your Only Choice.
Will Hulu come to the iPad? Probably. One day. But you had better get ready to pay for it.
Hulu and its owners, three of the big broadcast TV networks, want to bring some version of the Web video service to Apple's device.
But the most likely scenario is one in which access to Hulu on the iPad comes as part of a subscription package, multiple people familiar with the company tell me.
Hulu has been free for Web users since it launched in 2008. But its broadcast owners–GE's (GE) NBC Universal, News Corp.'s (NWS) Fox and Disney's (DIS) ABC–have repeatedly said they want to introduce some sort of premium version.
Depending on who you talk to, the pay service is either supposed to help the money-losing Web site turn a profit or compensate the networks for the eyeballs and dollars Hulu is supposedly siphoning away. Or both.
The problem is figuring out a way to keep the existing site free while adding new bells and whistles that consumers pay for. One idea the company and its backers like: Turning Hulu from a "one screen" service–one you're only supposed to watch on your computer–to a "three screen" offering by adding support for TVs and mobile devices.
"Just three screens alone is pretty enticing," for consumers, says an executive at one of Hulu's parent companies.
If you want, you can hook up your computer to your big-screen TV with a cable and watch Hulu that way. But Hulu hasn't aligned itself with devices and software that make the process easier, as Netflix (NFLX) has. Meanwhile, there's no Hulu for devices like Apple's iPhone, even though rival YouTube, owned by Google's (GOOG), loves smartphones.
And while you could argue that the iPad isn't necessarily a mobile device, since 3G Internet access is an optional feature, Hulu and the broadcasters that own it are likely to classify it as one. Like many other content owners, the video service sees the device as an opportunity to charge for something it has been giving away on the Web.
All the sources I talked to cautioned that Hulu and its owners had yet to agree on a definitive plan for a premium service. And this needs to be resolved before they can tackle device-specific issues.
"It's a tricky balancing act that we're trying to fine-tune before we go out," one source tells me. "Everyone's concerned about making a strong offering at a good price, and not undercutting the existing business."
And if Hulu does decide to head to the iPad, it will involve some work for both engineers and lawyers.
Hulu, like almost all Web video, uses Adobe's (ADBE) Flash, which is a no-go for the iPad, so that would require a workaround of some sort. It's doable, but not a snap.
And if Hulu decides to define the iPad as a mobile device, it would also need its content owners to grant it mobile rights, which it doesn't actually have. Again, doable. But the broadcasters are already making money from other mobile services, like Verizon's (VZ) V Cast. So they have to tread carefully.
All of which makes it very unlikely that you're going to see Hulu on the iPad when it begins shipping at the end of March, no matter how badly Apple (AAPL) would love it.
A rumor that the service would launch alongside the iPad surfaced in the wake of Steve Jobs's New York media tour earlier this month. And I don't think that's a coincidence. But I don't think that makes it so, either.

Getting Back into the Game
Most soccer players, especially goalies, are known for their fearlessness. Unfortunately their aggressive play and love for the game can translate into time spent off the field, recovering from a concussion.
I first got to know Chris–a charming, hard-hitting soccer goalie who also loves the guitar–after he was sidelined by a concussion. He was hit in the head when, while blocking the goal, he dove to the ground, and the ball struck him in the face–hard–as he made the save. Because of the severity of the blows and his neurological signs, he was airlifted off the soccer field and flown to the Johns Hopkins Hospital, as his stunned teammates, spectators and parents watched.
A short time later, Chris came to see us in Kennedy Krieger's Sports Neurorehabilitation Concussion Clinic. He came cheerfully, even though he was still experiencing symptoms of his concussion. Still, he wasn't his usual ball of energy, and he was bothered by frequent headaches. As you can imagine, he was eager to return to the game—but in a safe way–and his parents needed help figuring out when Chris could safely return to the sport he loves.

Perhaps the later is some sort of torcher by submersion under a sea of Americanisms and butched English.
Paris cos she is sensitive when she gets her tongue around the English
The US Department of Homeland Security said on Friday it's seeking a "leaner, smarter" way to preserve our freedoms and fight the global war on terror by launching an agency-wide efficiency program to cut wasteful spending. DHS Secretary Janet Napolitano announced her first hostilities against the axis of exorbitance will …
The DHS is sure to be like other large, unwieldy organizations: top-heavy as all get-out. If Napolitano really wants to make a splash, she should get rid of half the management caste now and another quarter come January 2010. If it takes picking numbers out of a hat to select those to be made redundant, so be it.
She also needs to ask difficult questions about costs and benefits: "For all the money spent on airline security, just how many, and how severe and potentially costly, have been the terrorist threats averted? Factor in lost traveller time and delays at $20 an hour. All estimates must be justified. Anyone erecting a smokescreen to protect their little empire will be made redundant."
She could also greatly improve the effectiveness of DHS by insisting that all operatives must be polite and helpful, no exceptions. No police-state tactics or rudeness. Without the heart-felt cooperation of those affected (primarily the traveling public), it's all a Potemkin village that does little to improve security and may, in fact, make things less secure.
..."Penny-pinching will hit six main categories, according to Napolitano: "acquisition management, asset management, real property management, ...
All three are indeed sensible fields to mow a little bit shorter in hard times.
...employee vetting/credentialing, hiring/on-boarding,...
Now that bit worries me. Slashing ones' vetting of potential new hires and skimp-verifying the credentials tendered thereby is Just Asking For It. On a *massive* scale. Ditto for the hiring-in and training-up process, which is what "on-boarding" is in NeoSpeak. (Might as well have called it 'same-paging', since Being On the Same Page is too important to miss out on in them circles...)
So now we have it. The enterprising top-dog street-goons and bully thugs who have run out of juicy loaded civilians to rob for their daily bread now get their very own Federal agency bailouts, handed to them on a BIG plate, served up by one of the more secretive and sinister waiters in the NeoCon "Washington Consensus"' extra-judicial/-legal/-Constitutional agencies indeed.
Oh but wait there's more. (sigh.) Later, once this NeoWave of fully trained-up DHS Stasi are all at last accepted as "normal" by the ever-malleable US populace, she or her successor (matters not) can then embark on a "Massive Cleanup of Incompetence and Fraud" at the DHS, dutifully and noisily exposing all those dodgy "oopsie mybad" credentials and backgrounds with full Mainstream Media support. And a cheering tho' pre-cowed public.
Mission accomplished! The American public savaged by her ham-fisted Stasi goon squad at the borders until more than half beaten down, then half or more of the former DHS employees turned out, by now fully Federally trained, into our civilian midst so as to ostensibly again make America "safer" by Privatizable Means... For the elite class, is the part that is *always* Left Not Said. That's the top 0.5% and none of the Rest of Us, which was the plan all along, don'cha' know by now?
...and information technology."
FOSS LINUX UBER ALLES! (Uh-oh again.)
Gah. NeoO/S of the NeoCon NeoGodz. I can hardly wait. But the penguin in my coat pocket's the one with the thirty-three-year forward stare and ain't called any of these moves wrong yet, Heaven help us all.
Think it'll take that long? Hmph. Well, at least the Missouri Fusion Centre's latest and most inflammatory report (Google "MIAC Report"+militia) was rescinded... For the moment.
"[...] get rid of half the management caste now and another quarter come January 2010."
But it always looks so much better to get rid of the lower-paid drones than the top-level Neddys - you can sack 500 call centre staff, analysts, programmers and field service engineers for the same saving as one Director (well, more than 500 if you take into consideration all the Director's stock options, enhanced support, insatiable appetite for the latest gadgets even if (IF??) he doesn't need them, etc...). Which looks more impressive to the beancounters - 500 bodies or just one? (Replace job descriptions with photo intel, human intel, signals intel, langauge specialists etc if you really feel the need to get this back on-topic... ;-) )
Answers on the back of a slightly-used Howling Pukeup pink slip to practically any IT "outsourcer" active in the UK... assuming they haven't all fracked off to India already.
The need for security flew right over your head, didn't it? With airlines, a thousand success cannot sooth a single failure. If this doesn't make sense to you, imagine the terrorists were carrying nukes. If just one gets through, BAM! It's bye-bye London(or whatever city you hold near and dear). A better question would be "How can we make our security checks quicker without hampering effectiveness?", which I hear the Israelis are quite good at.
DHS was not setup properly in the first place apparently(surprise). Sounds like the sole-source bonanza of the Bush years is drying up. DHS was primarily a way to appear to be doing something anyway. Intelligence agencies are still not sharing information so DHS itself is a failure from a strategic point of view in my opinion. The best way to save money at DHS would be to dissolve it and hold the agency heads accountable.
"Cost savings are debatable since to use Linux servers and other FOSS you need to invest in showers and deoderant for the scruffy neckbeards needed to drive them."
Deodorant and showers, even face-cloths and soap we mostly already have for ourselves, these days. As for the darkish dirt apparently embedded in my own whitish Funny Hat, well, that is MY dirt. I *own* that dirt. It is my property, MY Real Estate. I got it fair and square in the Old Fashioned Honorable Way - I EARNED it.
Keeps my entire head clean, that hat. Rummaging about in dusty basement-level chassis boxes and racks here and there, one needs such gear as that.
I'll be rid of it once I am entirely done with it, thank you. The dirt, that is. The hat is even prettier when clean, and a permanent trademark feature as well. Nobody'd recognize me at the bank any more if ever I ditched it, y'know?
Alien. For the Long Strange Irreplaceable Trip that it has indeed been... Gotta' luvvit. :)

Hawaii prosecutors office investigator.
I was wondering if any is an investigator or has applied to any of the island prosecutors office investigation position. I understand it's a lateral position and they take those that have a prior academy.
Any info would be great.
P.s. Kahuna I'm still with CBP. Still looking.
Aloha to all.

Politics and how Hawaii works legally played a very big part of their departure.........
When I was still out there, i looked into it. But, as stated, the way the State works politically kept me out of the applying or the positions which seem to always be open.
Two different retirement systems btwn them and Hono PD and you would think retiring Hono PD Officers would snatch them up but they don't.
08-24-2017, 21:33 #3
Time flies seaker! Before you know it you'll be retiring from CBP! I actually spoke to the Chief Investigator there for the AG's Office about an Investigator's position years ago. We really hit it off on the phone and he liked my resume and application. Sounded like I was in the running for the job. Then he suddenly "retired" and that was the end of that budding job prospect. Looking back now I'm glad it didn't pan out at that time in my life. I think as I get closer to retirement myself it would maybe peak my interest for awhile post retirement. The qualifications were strange for the higher Levels (Investigator IV and V etc.). Not only did they want some substantial investigative experience (which I had), they also wanted supervisory experience (which I didn't have at that time). Again this was about 15 years ago or earlier. Time flies!

It's been 4 months and sorry for the late response. Being from Hawai'i. I can relate to the political side of Hawai'i. Seen it lived it in many ways as Haole. Sometimes it's not so much Hawai'i but the people not familiar with the islands but sometimes it's both and the islands as open as they are and beautiful can be. Is as racist as any southern town in middle America.
Thank you

Kahauna bless your heart. One day will have that ������ beer my Hawaiian brother. Miss Home but the older and slightly wealthier I get the tighter I am. 850k for a house in millilani. 500k for a home on the island of Hawai'i. Regardless of my last post and feelings I miss Home and the people in it. Finding an angle to get their.
Thanks for the in site.

If you want it bad enough and stick with it, I'm sure you'll find a way back. I've found the longer I've been away the less it seems like "home" anymore. Not that I don't love it there still and have a lot of family there, but getting on the plane to come back to the mainland has gone from being a sad time, to a relief to get back to home.
Keep us posted!

Word Art Freebie
In today's world we tend to think that if someone didn't actually intend something in a certain way, then it doesn't count. Ponder that a moment. In the spiritual realm this is not so. Just as God established eternal laws for nature and mankind, He also established spiritual laws to govern the spiritual realm. God's laws do not change, none of them, no matter what mankind thinks. We will all be judged by them whether we decided we are too modern for them or not.
Spiritual laws also apply to the dark spiritual realm; satan and his evil spirits. We can do things in ignorance, without understanding their spiritual significance and without intending to open spiritual doors for evil to enter our lives. We still incur the consequences. Remember, satan is the father of lies. He does not play nice. He does not play fair. But he does have to play by God's rules. He is indeed a defeated foe (Jesus' work on the cross), but he still has power and he takes advantage of every opportunity we allow him, whether we meant it that way or not. He does not say, "Oh, they didn't really mean to allow us in, so just leave them alone." He does not think or act like God the Father or our Beloved Savior who operate always out of love for us. Satan wants only to kill and destroy us. He wants to us to spend eternity in hell with him as that's the only way he can strike out at God and hurt Him.
