SoftWalk shoes were created on the belief that a better footbed makes a better shoe. SoftWalk's patented eggcrate footbed is quality technology and comfort you can see and feel the second you slip them on. The unique interaction of the design's multi-layers absorbs the stress of standing or walking while offering cushioned support from heel to toe.
The SoftWalk Napa is an incredibly comfortable ballerina style with a low-profile cushioned footbed that includes a gentle arch support. The footbed uses both soft microfiber lining (with a colorful , fun pattern) and leather inserts for a secure and comfortable fit. Napa uses SoftWalk's new Nobel bottom which is very flexible, lightweight and thin yet durable and grippy with it's textured rubber sole. Cuddly soft burnished leather uppers and a cute toe tip finish off this great new SoftWalk style.

Hot water does the work for you
Locating a stoppage in a drainline is normally guesswork, according to Master Plumber and Club member Rex Caldwell of Copper Hill, Virginia. But if you have accessible drainlines, his technique makes finding the obstruction an easy, one-hand operation. First, let all the standing water drain slowly through the clog. Once the water is gone, run very hot water into a bucket, then pour it into the stopped drainpipe until it backs up slightly. Now run your hand along the pipe. You�ll find your stoppage where the pipe turns from hot to cold.

Three Big Don'ts of Rebuilding Credit
By Deepa Venkatraghvan
NEW YORK (MainStreet)--When it comes to life's arduous tasks, the advice is mostly about what you should not do. Take losing weight for instance: don't eat processed foods, don't eat out, don't go on starvation diets, don't miss breakfast and so on.
It's the same with saving money - don't spend more than you earn, don't borrow too much, don't delay investment.
So when it comes to rebuilding from a bad credit situation, it's not too different. There are things that you should not do that will help you sail out faster and easier. Here are the three big don'ts of rebuilding credit:
1. DON'T miss any payments
O.K., so you have a poor credit. The most important thing now is to forget the past and focus on the future. To begin with, remember to keep making payments on time. And this does not just mean credit card dues. It includes all your other bills like rent payments, medical bills, etc. If you cannot pay your credit card bills in full, be sure to make the minimum payments regularly.
"It's much easier to rebuild a credit report that is devoid of negative information," explained John Ulzheimer, president of consumer education at SmartCredit.com. "Negative information includes defaults, missed payments, public records, collections, charge offs, repossessions, foreclosures, settlements, etc."
If you do have negative items, the rebuilding process will be more difficult. "If the items are accurate then your best ally is time," he said. "As the items get older they lose negative value in your scores. Your score will improve organically over time."
2. DON'T add that secured card
You've probably heard people say that using a secured card is a good way to rebuild credit. Well, you can write that off as a myth. "The value of a secured credit card as it pertains to rebuilding credit is a little overblown," Ulzheimer said. "Simply adding a new secured card to a credit report that contains negative information isn't going to do much, if anything at all. If the credit report is polluted with negative information then time is really the best ally. As the negative items age they'll lose value, which will lead to small score improvement over time. Adding a secured card is fine but that won't accelerate the aging of the negative items."

Remembering God's Resources in Borden, Ontario, Canada
Voice the Lord's Prayer in Canada Ontario Borden
Ask for God's assistance, then we're to remember His resources in Canada Ontario Borden
We kind of read it like this: "Our Father who art in Heaven, hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Give me this day my daily bread." God says, "Wait a minute. You have everything confused. First of all, you seek me first. See the events there? See the succession, there? First, "You seek Me first, then I'll take care of you." That's like a teenager walking in to a father and saying this. "Dad, could I please borrow your new car, but I hate your guts." "Dad, uh, I need some money for this date. I'm dating this good-looking girl here. It's the first time she's gone out with me, but I'll never do one thing you say."
So, if you're going to voice the Lord's Prayer in in Borden, Ontario, Canada , we must have to mean every single word in it. So, first of all, we're to ask for God's assistance, then we're to remember His resources in in Borden, Ontario, Canada . Number three, look back at the last word here, again. It says this, Matthew 6:11, "Give us this day our daily bread." See those two words before daily? It says, "This day our daily bread." That word "daily" in the Greek is efiuias and this word totally blew away all the translators of the Bible. They couldn't find the word, "efiuias." Where's "efiuias"? There were translating the Bible into English, they couldn't find it. They looked, they looked, they looked. They took the Greek classics, Plato, Homer, all of–The Iliad. They couldn't find "efiuias."

Newer Business, Technical Needs and Considerations
You've heard the naysayers: ERP projects are being back-burnered, and the technology has become a burden to be off-loaded as quickly as possible. Don't believe it. Forrester Research projects that the global ERP market will grow from $45.5 billion this year to $50.3 billion in 2015, with the SaaS portion of that market--the long tail of ERP--growing at a 21% compound annual growth rate during the same period; the consultancy expects the SaaS market overall to be a $78.4 billion business by 2015. Our InformationWeek 2011 Enterprise Applications Survey shows just 16% of 274 respondents with direct or indirect responsibility for enterprise applications are looking to move away from conventional ERP vs. 31% saying a core ERP system is the main platform for running the business, and they want to build and extend initiatives around this platform.
Still, as upbeat as these forecasts are, there must be some basis for all the negativity, right? In this report, we'll investigate balanced ways to interpret dire predictions and examine the real changes on tap for ERP—and the business, technological and architectural implications. (S3911111)

Puppies seem to have boundless energy, so at first, you might assume keeping them active and fit will be easy. However, anyone who has owned a puppy and carried her home after a long walk can tell you that as energetic as puppies are, they also tire quickly.
In addition, puppies have certain limits that some owners might not notice when their little ball of fur's energy seems literally endless. According to Animal Planet, puppies should not go on long runs or jogs until they are about a year old, since this is when their joints are mature. Too much impact exercise while the dogs' bones and joints are still developing can lead to arthritis in dogs or dog hip dysplasia.
Then again, it's critical that you give your young canine enough exercise to keep her at a healthy weight - you don't want to set her up for obesity in dogs before she's even fully grown! So, how can you strike a happy balance? Try some of these games to keep your puppy fit, healthy and having fun.
A good old fashioned walk
It sounds simple, but walking your young dog is an important time for socialization, exercise and certain puppy training lessons. The news outlet reports that puppies' walks should be relative to their age - for every month old your pup is, the walk should be 5 minutes. That means a 3-month-old puppy needs 15-minute walks. Anything longer and you'll probably be carrying her home.
Walking - and all the sights, sounds and smells involved - is already stimulating for your puppy, but you can make it even more fun. Bring some treats and lead her along curbs, or practice commands like "sit," "wait" and "stay" while out. The additional distractions add a challenge!
Hide and seek
This classic game is as fun for dogs as it is for young kids, and it is a great way to establish a strong bond with your puppy. To play, have a friend hold your pup while you run and hide. Then, say her name every few seconds until she finds you. Using the "come" command during this game is also a great way to reinforce training. Finding you is a treat in and of itself for your puppy, but if she doesn't seem to be listening to the "come" command, make sure to bring treats with you when you hide.
Water games
Most dogs love water, and it's a great place to bring your puppy for low-impact exercise that won't hurt her developing joints and cause dog hip dysplasia, elbow dysplasia or other joint and bone problems as she grows up. Fetch is probably the most popular game for dogs in the water, but make sure you choose the right toys - a small, soft toy that floats is ideal. Avoid using sticks, since they can splinter and cause oral injuries.
It's also a good idea to use a puppy life jacket at first, even if your dog takes to the water naturally. Use this until she has proved to be a master swimmer. Of course, if your puppy seems to hate the water, never force her into it.

Research: Salaries for Higher Ed Get Low Marks
Salaries for IT pros in higher education have been stuck in neutral for some time, rising just 1.4% for managers and remaining flat for staff this year. But workers get satisfaction from job perks such as flexibility and time off. (R6460413_EDU)
Survey Name 2013 InformationWeek U.S. IT Salary Survey: Higher Education
Survey Date January 2013
Region United States
Number of Respondents 861 IT professionals working in higher education, composed of 454 IT staff and 407 IT managers
Purpose To track IT salary and compensation trends from the perspective of those on the front lines, InformationWeek conducts an annual U.S. IT Salary Survey. Now in its 16th year, it's the largest employee-based IT salary survey in the country. Last year 13,880 full-time IT professionals completed the Web-based survey. This year 14,074 took part. The goal of this trendable study is to measure various aspects of compensation, benefits and job satisfaction. This report focuses on the 861 IT professionals working in higher education who participated in the survey.
Methodology The survey was designed by InformationWeek and fielded online. The survey was promoted in InformationWeek's daily and weekly newsletters. In addition, email invitations with an embedded link to the survey were sent to qualified IT professionals from InformationWeek Business Technology Network print, newsletter and events databases. The survey was fielded from November 2012 to January 2013.
The information in this report is based on responses from 861 IT professionals working in higher education. Unemployed and part-time workers were excluded from these results, as were respondents from outside the United States. This report uses median rather than mean or average figures for salary and percentage salary changes to eliminate distortions caused by extremes at the high or low ends of the responses.

Today I am excited to announce an updated 9.x branch - CUBRID 9.3.0 has been released. CUBRID 9.3 is the version which stabilized and improved CUBRID 9.2.
CUBRID 9.3's DB volume is compatible with 9.2's. CUBRID 9.1 and previous version should migrate database.
We are releasing the heart bleed vulnerability patch of CUBRID Manager Server.
You have already seen the news regarding Heart Bleed bug, this vulnerability affecting a lot of web site which are using OpenSSL to provide https protocol. CUBRID Manager Server uses OpenSSL in its https api and if you are using on the outside of network zone, it might be taken the vulnerability problem. Because of using OpenSSL 1.0.
Last month we announced CUBRID 8.4.4, the latest version of 8.4.x branch, with new SQL Profiling feature and numerous stability improvements. Today I am excited to announce an update to the 9.x branch - all new CUBRID 9.2.0.
Most new features and stability improvements of the latest 8.4.4 version have been applied to CUBRID 9.2.0 as well. However, there are several more new features and performance improvements in 9.2.0 that I will describe below.
Today we are releasing a new version of CUBRID driver for Nodej.s. node-cubrid 2.1.0 has a few API improvements which aim to provide more convenient APIs with full backward compatibility. However, the main objective of this release is to refactor the driver to achieve significant performance improvement by leveraging the characteristics of V8 and Node.js platforms. Continue reading to learn more about the changes.
On behalf of CUBRID Team I am happy to announce the new 8.4.4 version of CUBRID open source relational database. This release is mostly dedicated for stability improvement of the 8.4 branch, and has some minor behavioral changes which I will explain below. Thus, CUBRID 8.4.4 is fully compatible with the previous 8.4.3 version.
If you have been following up with our latest releases, you may have noticed that we are maintaining two branches for CUBRID 8.4.x and 9.x.

Eucalyptus globulus
The Tasmanian Blue Gum, Southern Blue Gum or Blue Gum, (Eucalyptus globulus) is an evergreen tree, one of the most widely cultivated trees native to Australia. They typically grow from 30 to 55 m (98 to 180 ft) tall. The tallest currently known specimen in Tasmania is 90.7 m tall.[1] There are historical claims of even taller trees, the tallest being 101 m (330 ft).[2] The natural distribution of the species includes Tasmania and southern Victoria (particularly the Otway Ranges and southern Gippsland). There are also isolated occurrences on King Island and Flinders Island in Bass Strait and on the summit of the You Yangs near Geelong. There are naturalized non-native occurrences in southern Europe (Galicia, Akamas, Cyprus, and Portugal), southern Africa, New Zealand, western United States (California), Hawaii and Macaronesia, Caucasus (Western Georgia).[3][4]
The d'Entrecasteaux expedition made immediate use of the species when they discovered it, the timber was used to improve their oared boats.[5] The Tasmanian Blue Gum was proclaimed as the floral emblem of Tasmania on 27 November 1962. The species name is from the Latin globulus, a little button, referring to the shape of the operculum.
The bark sheds often, peeling in large strips. The broad juvenile leaves are borne in opposite pairs on square stems. They are about 6 to 15 cm long and covered with a blue-grey, waxy bloom, which is the origin of the common name "blue gum". The mature leaves are narrow, sickle-shaped and dark shining green. They are arranged alternately on rounded stems and range from 15 to 35 cm in length. The buds are top-shaped, ribbed and warty and have a flattened operculum (cap on the flower bud) bearing a central knob. The cream-colored flowers are borne singly in the leaf axils and produce copious nectar that yields a strongly flavored honey. The fruits are woody and range from 1.5 to 2.5 cm in diameter. Numerous small seeds are shed through valves (numbering between 3 and 6 per fruit) which open on the top of the fruit. It produces roots throughout the soil profile, rooting several feet deep in some soils. They do not form taproots.
The plant was first described by the French botanist Jacques Labillardière in his publications Relation du Voyage à la Recherche de la Pérouse (1800) and Novae Hollandiae Plantarum Specimen (1804).[6][7] The author collected specimens at Recherche Bay during the d'Entrecasteaux expedition in 1792.[5]
Blue gum is one of the most extensively planted eucalypts. Its rapid growth and adaptability to a range of conditions is responsible for its popularity. It is especially well-suited to countries with a Mediterranean-type climate, but also grows well in high altitudes in the tropics.[8]
It comprises 65% of all plantation hardwood in Australia with approximately 4,500 km² planted.[9] The tree is widely cultivated elsewhere in the world. It is primarily planted as a pulpwood, and also as an important fuelwood in many countries.
Blue gums have historically been used as street trees but are now regarded as unsuitable by many municipalities due to their rapid growth and mature size.
In Southern California, thousands of E. globulus were planted from the late 1800s until 1940s by the ranch owners as windrows to protect citrus groves from the harsh Santa Ana winds, particularly in Orange County. With the decline and eventual disappearance of the citrus business and rapid suburbanization of the area, the survivng E. globulus became increasingly seen as an important part of the suburban landscape and are currently protected by varouis city ordinances.
Blue gum timber is yellow-brown, fairly heavy, with an interlocked grain, and is difficult to season.[10] It has poor lumber qualities due to growth stress problems, but can be used in construction, fence posts and poles.[11]
Essential oil
The leaves are steam distilled to extract eucalyptus oil. E. globulus is the primary source of global eucalyptus oil production, with China being the largest commercial producer.[12][13] The oil has therapeutic, perfumery, flavoring, antimicrobial and biopesticide properties.[14][15][16][17] Oil yield ranges from 1.0-2.4% (fresh weight), with cineole being the major isolate. E. globulus oil has established itself internationally because it is virtually phellandrene free, a necessary characteristic for internal pharmaceutical use.[18] In 1870, Cloez, identified and ascribed the name "eucalyptol" — now more often called cineole — to the dominant portion of E. globulus oil.[19]
Herb tea
Tasmanian blue gum leaves are used as a therapeutic herbal tea.[20]
Blue gum flowers are considered a good source of nectar and pollen for bees.
E. globulus bark contains quinic, dihydroxyphenylacetic and caffeic acids, bis(hexahydroxydiphenoyl (HHDP))-glucose, galloyl-bis(HHDP)-glucose, galloyl-HHDP-glucose, isorhamentin-hexoside, quercetin-hexoside, methylellagic acid (EA)-pentose conjugate, myricetin-rhamnoside, isorhamnetin-rhamnoside, mearnsetin, phloridzin, mearnsetin-hexoside, luteolin and a proanthocyanidin B-type dimer, digalloylglucose and catechin.[21]
Environmental weed
It was introduced to California in the mid-19th century, partly in response to the Southern Pacific Railroad's need for timber to make railroad ties, and is prominent in many parks in San Francisco and throughout the state. Naturalists, ecologists, and the United States National Park Service consider it an invasive species due to its ability to quickly spread and displace native plant communities, while local authorities, especially many fire departments across California consider them to be a major fire hazard,[22][23][24] although the United States Department of Agriculture does not list it among its Invasive and Noxious plants list in California.[25] Due to such reasons, programs across the state of California have been taken to remove all eucalyptus growth and restore native biomes in some park areas, such as on Angel Island in San Francisco Bay, and in the Hills of Oakland California, where Eucalyptus Trees helped fuel the 1991 Oakland Hills Firestorm.[22]
Related species
Many botanists treat the Tasmanian Blue Gum as a subspecies of a broader species concept. This broader E. globulus includes the following subspecies:
- E. globulus subsp. bicostata = E. bicostata - Southern Blue Gum, Eurabbie, Victorian Blue Gum
- E. globulus subsp. globulus = E. globulus - Tasmanian Blue Gum
- E. globulus subsp. maidenii= E. maidenii - Maiden's Gum
- E. globulus subsp. pseudoglobulus = E. pseudoglobulus - Gippsland Blue Gum, Victorian Eurabbie
The broader E. globulus concept is supported by Royal Botanic Gardens, Melbourne[26] and the Tasmanian Herbarium,[27] but not by Royal Botanic Gardens, Sydney[28] where the four taxa are considered distinct species.

Wolfgang Puck: Whetting Hollywood's appetite
Puck really knows how to pick them. Locations, that is. Wolfgang Puck, who burst onto the scene in 1982 with a little place called Spago, has just opened a new restaurant downtown at L.A. Live.
New Wolfgang Puck Thin Crust Frozen Pizzas are now available in four varieties at a grocer near you.
Wolfgang Puck has opened his first Ventura County-adjacent restaurant. The menu offers Puck's signature pizzas, his Chinois chicken salad with Asian vegetables and crispy wontons and such seasonal dishes as gazpacho and chili lime Thai beef salad.
Campbell Soup Co. has bought the Wolfgang Puck soup business in a move that quickly expands the company's organic soup options.
Wolfgang Puck, joins John & Rebekah outside on our new patio to grill up some of his signature kabobs. Today he cooked up some honey marinated beef skewers along with chicken kabobs with lemon and thyme, and a delicious summer rice salad.
Celebrity chef and head of a veritable food empire, Wolfgang Puck talks to Kerri Miller about how dining has changed over his many years running restaurants, including the groundbreaking Spago in Los Angeles. His company has a fine dining outpost in Minneapolis, 20.21 Restaurant and Bar at the Walker Art Center.
It's been almost three decades since master chef Wolfgang Puck first opened Spago on the Sunset Strip and introduced diners to his innovative style of cooking known as California cuisine. Now, the father of California dining is introducing Los Angeles to his newest restaurant, Wolfgang Puck Bar & Grill, downtown at L.A. Live.
Following his live appearance on Good Day L.A., FOX also did a web interview with Wolfgang where he discusses the opening of Bar & Grill at L.A. Live as well as our new website.
Superchef Wolfgang Puck focused on freshness to inspire a culinary revolution. See how he inspires innovation among his protégés and continues building his international brand.

Sasha Sims tied a career-high with 28 points and Cherisse Burris added a career-high 24 points as Stetson opened the 2013 Hatter Classic with a convincing 103-72 victory over Murray State Friday afternoon at the Edmunds Center.
The Hatters (7-4) topped the century mark for the second time this season en route to their highest offensive output since 1987. Stetson owned a 50-34 halftime advantage and led by as many as 38 in the second half.
"We are just a confident team right now," Burris said. "We are not selfish with the ball. We pass the ball around and look for the open man. We like to score for each other, so it is really good that we are all in sync."
Stetson also gave a strong defensive effort, holding Murray State (6-5) to just 33% shooting from the floor. The Racers connected on 13 of their 40 three-point field goal attempts.
"Murray State is a good team," Stetson head coach Lynn Bria said. "They shoot the ball well from the arc, so we knew we had to get out and guard them. I felt like we did a good job of contesting their shots."
Sims went 9-for-15 from the floor, 5-for-8 from three-point range, and 5-for-5 from the line en route to her fifth 20-point game this season. She has scored 50 points over her last two games combined.
"Sasha has been doing great for us," Burris said. "She rebounds, she scores, she hits threes when we need them. She is an all-around good player, and we really need her."
Burris had a stellar game herself, shooting 80% from the floor (8-for-10) and 100% from both three-point range (2-for-2) and from the free throw line (6-for-6). Amber Porter (14 points), Brianti Saunders (14 points), and Jama Sharp (10 points) also scored in double figures.
"It's hard to guard," Bria said about the balanced scoring. "Getting the ball down to Amber creates a lot of openings for the other players. 'CeeCee' was also very effective in the post and on the perimeter, and Sasha is just being very, very aggressive.
"When we move the ball we are a very good team as far as getting good shots," Bria added. "We always want to establish the paint. We really want to get the ball inside and when we do that we tend to win more games."
Stetson dominated the paint on Friday, outrebounding Murray State 52-35 and outscoring the Racers 50-16 on the inside. Porter pulled down a career-high 18 rebounds, 14 of those on the defensive end, for her third double-double of the season.
"Overall, I am very pleased," Bria said. "Defensively, we did a much better job today. Obviously we should outrebound them, we were the bigger team. I thought we did a good job of just making them take tough shots."
Stacia Allen registered her first two collegiate field goals, including a three-pointer at the 1:39 mark that put Stetson over 100 points. The Hatters also scored 101 points at Florida A&M on Dec. 2, and last scored 103 against Saint Leo on Feb. 23, 1987.
In the second game of the day, Nicholls State defeated Bethune-Cookman 73-56. The Hatters and Colonels will meet for the Hatter Classic championship Saturday at 1 p.m.
Notes: In four home games this season, the Hatters are averaging 92.3 points per game, and have an average margin of victory of +23.5 ... Stetson has had five players (or more) in double figures six times this season ... Cherisse Burris scored her 700th career point and Jama Sharp recorded career assist no. 200 ... The Hatters set the school record for most wins in a four-year span (74).

Skip to comments.List Of Obama's 23 Executive Actions
Posted on 01/16/2013 9:33:47 AM PST by Jeff Chandler
1. Issue a Presidential Memorandum to require federal agencies to make relevant data available to the federal background check system.
2. Address unnecessary legal barriers, particularly relating to the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act, that may prevent states from making information available to the background check system.
3. Improve incentives for states to share information with the background check system.
4. Direct the Attorney General to review categories of individuals prohibited from having a gun to make sure dangerous people are not slipping through the cracks.
5. Propose rulemaking to give law enforcement the ability to run a full background check on an individual before returning a seized gun.
6. Publish a letter from ATF to federally licensed gun dealers providing guidance on how to run background checks for private sellers.
7. Launch a national safe and responsible gun ownership campaign.
8. Review safety standards for gun locks and gun safes (Consumer Product Safety Commission).
9. Issue a Presidential Memorandum to require federal law enforcement to trace guns recovered in criminal investigations.
10. Release a DOJ report analyzing information on lost and stolen guns and make it widely available to law enforcement.
11. Nominate an ATF director.
12. Provide law enforcement, first responders, and school officials with proper training for active shooter situations.
13. Maximize enforcement efforts to prevent gun violence and prosecute gun crime.
14. Issue a Presidential Memorandum directing the Centers for Disease Control to research the causes and prevention of gun violence.
15. Direct the Attorney General to issue a report on the availability and most effective use of new gun safety technologies and challenge the private sector to develop innovative technologies.
16. Clarify that the Affordable Care Act does not prohibit doctors asking their patients about guns in their homes.
17. Release a letter to health care providers clarifying that no federal law prohibits them from reporting threats of violence to law enforcement authorities.
18. Provide incentives for schools to hire school resource officers.
19. Develop model emergency response plans for schools, houses of worship and institutions of higher education.
20. Release a letter to state health officials clarifying the scope of mental health services that Medicaid plans must cover.
21. Finalize regulations clarifying essential health benefits and parity requirements within ACA exchanges.
22. Commit to finalizing mental health parity regulations.
23. Launch a national dialogue led by Secretaries Sebelius and Duncan on mental health.
Obama/Soetoro blinked.
Watsa` matta` Barry, scared to get Impeached ?
NRA/GOA need to organize a march by gun owners/2nd Amendment supporters on Washington "ala" Tea Party demo of 2010.
I must have missed the part where private sales require background checks... guess he stopped short of that.
This list looks like a clean whiff ...
I'm more worried about what the gov of Md is going to do.
Like Fast & Furious, right?
A bunch of bull, except for pushing Doctors to question patients about their firearms.
"What firearms Dr., and why are you asking me about that when I'm getting a prostate exam anyway?"
what an idiot....2nd amendment or not...this is all meaningless nonsense. the libholes must be pissed.
My guess is someone sat him down and explained the separation of powers to him at a third grade level and he finally figured out that president and king aren't the same thing.
Executive Orders are administrative orders to agencies under the Executive Branch, and those entities that are dumb enough to believe that Obama can order them to do something. The actions he directs his agencies to execute must also have a legal basis in established Federal Statute.
IOW, I am not his employee. I am most certainly not his subject. I won't give him my guns. I won't register them.
#16 - Doctors will ask if you have guns in the home.
The whole purpose of this is to vilify gun owners and make them out to be lunatics.
Maybe we could start with asking if people are pedophiles? You know, people who really hurt children?
#14 is patently illegal. The prohibition against such research is currently the law of the land and will remain so until expiration of the current CR or the replacement or omission of the provision by some successive funding bill.
Except... I don't think Brian Terry's family is laughing.
So much Kobuki theater and cellophane window dressing. Can't believe i waitex to watch this non-event.
" 16. Clarify that the Affordable Care Act does not prohibit doctors asking their patients about guns in their homes"
He can't do it. It's already been stripped from ObamaCare®.
For sure, nothing to see here. For once a victory.
Like I trust that guy...What's the catch?
Hmmm. Why do I get the feeling that "challenge" here really means someting more like "force", "coerce", or otherwise "convince" the private sector to do this, whether the market is asking for it or not?
Now we know why the Hussein regime has been encouraging people to sign up for SSDI for mental health reasons, under the guise of running out of unemployment benefits. He wants to take away their guns for having psychological problems. Easy to do on this one.
What firearms Dr., and why are you asking me about that when Im getting a prostate exam anyway?
Oh, and before we get into that Doc, could you explain what a Boundary Violation is?
One thing that comes through - if you want to keep your guns you better never seek medical help for any mental issues (even depression) you think you might have or for any substance abuse issues. If any issues like that hit your digital medical records database you will be SOL.
remember, the devil's in the details! Who's read the actual orders?
Get a load of the Gun Party Barry. It will be like the Tea Party on steroids.
Yeah, that's not the finger I'm raising.
Direct the Attorney General to review categories of individuals prohibited from having a gun to make sure dangerous people are not slipping through the cracks.
This is the funny one. You mean, like people from SOUTH of the border — ones who kill American border agents? Perhaps they mean ....slipping through the BORDER!!
Pure political posturing...picking fights to build himself up and make proposals to give the impression he is accomplishing great things for the nation. A sad state of affairs that such "leaders" are given the public trust...
More liberal mental masturbation.
Why not spend the money on providing safe weapons training to youngsters and adults?
I agree, look for the fight to now shift to the state level.
By linking gun control to mental health hence obummercare, he can declare all gun owners as mentally ill.
The soviets favorite tactic was to label all dissidents as mentally ill to silence them
In the article it says he wants to ban clips holding more than 10 rounds (there's a grandfather clause) but it's not listed among the "directives". Am I missing something?
I am trying to see what I missed. Basically its saying if someone is a certified nut they should be prevented from buying or owing weapons. Who can disagree with that?
I'm worried about MD, too. So far the worst things I've seen bandied about are a ban on mags over 10 rounds (right now the limit is 15) and adding more "assault weapons" to the banned list. O'Malley mentioned fingerprinting the other day but it wasn't in the latest list of proposals that I saw.
I have a hair trigger on impeachment.
16. Clarify that the Affordable Care Act does not prohibit doctors asking their patients about guns in their homes.
Someone needs to setup a website that anyone can log into and report medical professionals who ask about fire arms in their patients homes. This would out the so called health care professionals and allow patriotic citizens to search for like minded health care providers.
Watch the other hand, folks.
Looks like a bunch of new government programs to me ...more reasons to spend more money we don't have.
Doctors ALREADY sometimes ask if there are guns in the home.
I have an autistic son — if someone wants to advise me on how to best keep my guns locked up, I welcome that advice. Just not sure WHO is best to give me that advice ...an MD, or someone from the NRA?
I had a female pediatric doctor ask me (with my 4 year old son in the room) if I had any guns in the house. I told her I would answer her question if first she told me how many dildos she had in her house.
I then asked, "oh, I'm sorry, did you find that offensive? I find your question equally offensive."
game, set, match.

game, set, match.
What's the source for this list? And why are you suspended or banned?
We've all been played.
Nothing in those executive orders that is an abuse of power that triggers articles of impeachment.
Was this a social reactive experiment carried out by the FedGov or something?
Who are you going to believe?
Your own lying eyes or King O'Dumbo's self-serving declaration?
Certainly such an important matter will require another 23 Czars!
I get it now. He's proposing that congress pass a law banning clips that hold over 10 rounds. It's not part of his "executive action".
You forgot to use the work "sweeping". It was in the memo. "Sweeping Whiff!"
This is when you drop trou and say "Doc, this my rifle and this is gun"......
And what idiot will go to a gun dealer to sell his weapon to his neighbor or friend?
Add # 24.............
Renew Fast and Furious Gun Running into Mexico where hundreds of Mexican children will be murdered. The hypocrisy is deafening.
Add #24
Develop a class system where federal politicians children are better than ordinary children,and deserving of armed gurads at school.
And if they ask my 12 yo girl the question she will tell them all about her 22 single shot plinker and the training she received at the NRA range.
My gp asked my high schooler about guns in the home. I imagine they immediately faxed the data to Sebelius.
These give a whole new meaning the the term "empty suit."

The world of economics has just changed, and somebody has some �splaining to do! Please savor the following twisted tale of bad math, academic folly and pundit hubris.
Since 2010, the names of Carmen Reinhart and Kenneth Rogoff have become famous in political and economic circles. These two Harvard economists wrote a paper, �Growth in the Time of Debt� that has been used by everyone from Paul Ryan to Olli Rehn of the European Commission to justify harmful austerity policies.

The Browns could play a similar role on the lakefront if the team lures private investment to the publicly owned waterfront land around Cleveland Browns Stadium and North Coast Harbor.
Initial renderings of the Browns' lakefront proposal, prepared by the Boston firm of Elkus Manfredi Architects, look more polished than they actually are. They call for a cluster of "mixed-use" buildings along the waterfront northeast of the stadium, along with a field house immediately north of the stadium, a walkway connecting to the downtown Mall and a 1,000-space parking garage north of the Cuyahoga County Courthouse.
It's all intended to create interest among potential developers, who would then hire their own architects and come up with their own plans.
Despite the early and hypothetical nature of the Browns' vision, it's important to make sure that Cleveland is sending clear signals to potential developers about civic goals for the lakefront.
What's missing now is a firm understanding that a great deal of public planning has already taken place on the lakefront - and that certain waterfront issues ought to be accepted as settled in Cleveland.

10 Ways to Save on Holiday Shopping Now
NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- The weather outside might not yet be frightful, but thinking about the holiday gift giving season might be enough to make most people wish fall would last forever.
The leaves might not yet have fallen, but it is time to start thinking about holiday gift giving, savings experts say.
According to Statistic Brain, an organization that compiles statistics from various sources, Americans last year spent $52 billion in 2011 between Nov. 1 and Dec. 16. Internet Retailer predicts that just online holiday shopping will be up by 16% this year.
But why wait for Black Friday or Cyber Monday when there are great deals to be had right now?
We talked to savings experts who came up with 10 ways you can save on holiday shopping now:
Make a list, check it twice: Jane DeLaney, founder of budgeting website eMeals.com, says one of the most important first steps is to know who is on your list. "Don't give into the pressure to give to everyone," DeLaney says. "Choose a list of people that you will get gifts for and don't stray from this list. It's important you are giving from the heart, and not just from what you feel pressured into doing."
A drop in the bucket: You should also know what you have to work with in terms of budgeting for the people on your list. Once you have the budget on paper, DeLaney says, "Don't go over it. It's simple; if you can't afford it, don't buy it."
It's all about the kids: There's no doubt that the season of giving is mostly about the kids, but DeLaney says that having a room packed full of presents may not be as meaningful. "Overspending and overbuying just leads to each gift not meaning as much and a sense of overindulgence," DeLaney says. "I've heard some parents say they just give three gifts to each child on Christmas. Many compare it to the three gifts brought to Jesus by the wise men and then go through the true Christmas story as part of their tradition after opening their gifts. What a fun and meaningful way to celebrate Christmas morning."
Spend what you save: If you're using coupons for other savings on groceries and other things, what is happening to the money you save? Most people don't know. Jon Lal, founder of BeFrugal.com says, "When you use coupons, put the money you've saved aside and use it for Christmas gift buying."
There's an app for that: The great thing for shoppers about living in this time in history is that you don't have to manually look for items on your gift list to make sure they aren't on sale that day. Shopping apps for your portable devices are a great way to keep track of the items on your gift list, says Trae Bodge, senior editor at RetailMeNot.com.

Article — From the June 1949 issue
The vindication of Dr. Van Waters
Years that a Nigerian woman appealing a sentence of death by stoning in March will be allowed to live to wean her baby:

"It is an interesting and somewhat macabre parlor game to play at a large gathering of one's acquaintances: to speculate who in a showdown would go Nazi. By now, I think I know. I have gone through the experience many times—in Germany, in Austria, and in France. I have come to know the types: the born Nazis, the Nazis whom democracy itself has created, the certain-to-be fellow-travelers. And I also know those who never, under any conceivable circumstances, would become Nazis."

Grammys Preview: Nirvana's 'Nevermind' and the Death of Guy Rock
Altogether too many trees were felled to give writers enough space to tell the world how Nirvana's Smells Like Teen Spirit was supposed to change music forever. It got me listening to a copy of Nevermind on repeat for days on end, but that song never quite had the effect that the bunch of guys -- and they were almost always guys -- sitting behind typewriters in black shirts had in mind. It never brought on that metal/punk hybrid of pure, adrenalized guy rock that would kick the longhairs to the curb and make all those rock-god groupies accessible to any nerd with a distortion pedal.
If anything, it helped swing the pendulum the other way, as Bon Jovi can attest. As we head into yet another Grammy Awards ceremony, the slate is once again clean of soaring guitar, macho bravado and dated notions of cool that were once codified as "rock." Cobain's death in 1994 coincided with the start of the Nielsen/Soundscan era of music industry tracking and, each year, Nielsen and Billboard give us an update on just how music industry buying patterns have evolved during that time.
This year, Garth Brooks topped the list of best-selling artists since 1993, followed by the Beatles, Mariah Carey, Metallica, Celine Dion, George Strait, Eminem, Tim McGraw, Alan Jackson and Pink Floyd. The best-selling albums during that span? Metallica's Black Album (released 1991, sold 15.8 million copies), Shania Twain's Come On Over (1997, 15.5 million), Alanis Morissette's Jagged Little Pill (1995, 14.8 million), The Backstreet Boys' Millennium (1999, 12.2 million) and The Beatles' greatest hits release Beatles 1 (2000, 12.1 million).
That's a decided lack of "rock" in that mix and a whole lot of catalog releases from the days when people actually bought CDs. In fact, people who bought albums last year bought 10.2% fewer new releases than they did in 2011, while spending 2.5% more on old albums and 3.3% more on dusty "deep catalog" artifacts that require some digging in the crates. Though overall album sales once again declined 4.4% last year, digital album sales jumped 14.1%, digital track sales edged up 5.1% and vinyl album sales soared 17.7%.
So where does Nirvana fit into all of this? Well, the familiar narrative says they did the world a big, huge favor by ridding it of hair bands and arena rock and making it safe for garage bands again. That's not quite how it played out. The grunge and post-grunge era music world was filled with as much belabored growling, on-stage preening and aggro nonsense as ever, as evidenced by the lineup, fires and ensuing rioting and rapes that engulfed the ill-fated Woodstock '99.

More photos:U.S. Department of State's Flickr photostream | State@Work
Today's "Photo of the Week" honors the 10th anniversary of the founding of the Community of Democracies, an organization initiated by former Secretary of State Madeleine Albright and her Polish counterpart Bronislaw Geremek in 2000. The photo comes to us courtesy of the U.S. Consulate General in Krakow, Poland, which was one of the stops on Secretary Clinton's July 1-5 trip to Ukraine, Poland, Azerbaijan, Armenia, and Georgia.
Speaking before the Communities of Democracy participants, Secretary Clinton said:
"[I]t was only through debate, discussion, and civic activism that the United States of America came into being. We were a people before we were a nation...Civil society has played an essential role in identifying and eradicating the injustices that have, throughout our history, separated our nation from the principles on which it was founded. It was civil society, after all, that gave us the abolitionists who fought the evils of slavery, the suffragettes who campaigned for women's rights, the freedom marchers who demanded racial equality, the unions that championed the rights of labor, the conservationists who worked to protect our planet and climate...Every Fourth of July Americans affirm their belief that all human beings are created equal, that we are endowed by our creator with unalienable rights: life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. Today, as a community of democracies, let us make it our mission to secure those rights. We owe it to our forebears, and we owe it to future generations to continue the fight for these ideals."

Skip to comments.Bush Extends Greetings To All Celebrating Kwanzaa
Posted on 12/28/2005 11:40:33 AM PST by presidio9
click here to read article
What a waste of time.
who was Nguzo Saba?
Happy Holidays.
That is the only greeting that needs to be said for this.
Has he invited a throng of Kwanzaa celebrants to the White House for a little jawboning?
How can he do it with a straight face?
It's not a who...it's an it:
(The Seven Principles)
Umoja (Unity)
To strive for and maintain unity in the family, community, nation and race.
Kujichagulia (Self-Determination)
To define ourselves, name ourselves, create for ourselves and speak for ourselves.
Ujima (Collective Work and Responsibility)
To build and maintain our community together and make our brother's and sister's problems our problems and to solve them together.
Ujamaa (Cooperative Economics)
To build and maintain our own stores, shops and other businesses and to profit from them together.
Nia (Purpose)
To make our collective vocation the building and developing of our community in order to restore our people to their traditional greatness.
Kuumba (Creativity)
To do always as much as we can, in the way we can, in order to leave our community more beautiful and beneficial than we inherited it.
Imani (Faith)
To believe with all our heart in our people, our parents, our teachers, our leaders and the righteousness and victory of our struggle.
I also posted this graphic in the comment section:
Anyone get one of these for Kwaanza?
Some guy who was invited to dinner by a lion.
Looks like a Menorah gone bad.
"I send greetings to those observing Kwanzaa."
Kawanza was invented in 1966 by Ron Karenga (a nice chap who used to beat his girlfriends with electric cords and burn their faces and mouths with hot irons).
Nobody in Africa has ever celebrated "Kwanzaa" (which uses North American Indian corn--maize--as part of its celebration).
It's a lot of fictional babble invented with the intention of making a non-white Christmas.
Why anybody would pander to the worst hate-mongers of the 1960s by continuing this nonsense is beyond me.
From the Smith & Wesson Forum:
Seven Principles of Gunzaa
To strive for and maintain unity in the gun owners and supporters.
To define ourselves, name ourselves, create for ourselves and speak for ourselves and not let anti-gunners label us.
Collective Work and Responsibility
To build and maintain our gun community together and make our brother's and sister's problems our problems and to solve them together through responsible gun ownership.
Cooperative Economics
To support businesses that support our rights as gun owners and lawful concealed carriers.
To make our collective vocation the building and developing of our gun ownership community in order to restore our people to their traditional greatness and cast away any stigma thrust upon us by the antis.
To do always as much as we can, in the way we can, in order to leave our community more protected and peaceful than we inherited it.
To believe with all our heart in our people, our parents, our teachers, our leaders and the righteousness and victory of our struggle to maintain the Second Amendment.
Well that's just great Dubya, this and the 15 billion to Africa. Instead of 8% of the black vote, maybe that'll get the Republicans as much as a whopping 10% in 2006. Whoops, nevermind, you lost all of that 2% increase because Farrahkan convinced everyone that you set the exploding charges the blew open the New Orleans dikes.
"Why anybody would pander to the worst hate-mongers of the 1960s by continuing this nonsense is beyond me."
Cerebral deficit.
Merry Kwanzaa Freepers!
Barf alert needed here!
Next year will the President display the National Festivus Pole? Will feel left out if he didn't.
".Farrahkan convinced everyone that you set the exploding charges the blew open the New Orleans dikes."
I thought they were in San Francisco. Nevermind.
check out this link--article by Tony Snow http://www.jewishworldreview.com/tony/snow123199.asp
So any *Yahoo* can make up a National Holiday that the government will observe?
Maybe Howard Stern will come up with Happy Sirrus Day and all will celebrate!
How goofball....
As you wish.
Now I'm confused. Is Kwanzaa the holiday where Tookie Williams comes down the chimney and leaves gifts of corn and Marxism for all the little girls and boys?
"Has he invited a throng of Kwanzaa celebrants to the White House for a little jawboning?"
Um, there is no throng of Kwanzaa celebrants.
he must have missed that 99' report by Tony Snow
You left out the toe-crushing, poisoning, and the old "toaster over the head".
But hey, the guy wrote a book or two, so he deserves a break...just like the tookster.
IMO Oberving IS by wishing everyone *Happy Kawanza Day* why even mention it?
I googled Kwanza and Jamaica and only 1 article appeared from a local paper about the "American" holiday.
One of the first article found about the US celebration was about a Kwanza celebration being canceled due to lack of participation:
I did find 1 celebration story about the US Virgin Islands. Does that make it "around the world"?
Undeterred I kept looking, surely there would be Kwanza in Africa and I was right! I found Kwanza in Angola!!! But it wasn't a holiday, it was a province... Kwanza-Sul province.
My question for Bush: Why not say Happy Holiday like you did on my Christmas card
Tookie rises from the crypt!
The same way he claims that 'Islam is a religion of Peace', that's how.
Unfortunately, your opinion doesn't make it so.
I suppose that he mentioned it because, in no particular order, a) it is a holiday that some Americans observe, and b) by mentioning it he deprives others of the opportunity to call him/Republicans racist. I would think conservatives would have a whole lot more to do than join DU in bashing the President.
Does anyone know: Did Ronald Reagan send out Kwanzaa greetings?
I just want to know why we don't get a day off for it? I'll celebrate any holiday when it gets me out of work!
Bush is an imbecile for attaching his name to this excrement that some political hack wrote for him and convinced him to agree with.
He'd tortured a woman and spent time in jail.
He needed a new scam that just wouldn't fail.
("So what if I stuck some chick's toe in a vice?
Nobody said revolution was nice!")
The Sixties were over. Now what would he do?
Why, he went back to school -- so that's "Dr." to you!
He once ordered shootouts at UCLA
Now he teaches Black Studies just miles away.
Then to top it all off, the good Doctor's new plan
Was to get rid of Christmas and piss off The Man.
Karenga invented a fake holiday.
He called the thing Kwanza. "Hey, what's that you say?
"You don't get what's 'black' about Maoist baloney?
You say that my festival's totally phony?
"Who cares if corn isn't an African crop?
Who cares if our harvest's a month or two off?
Who cares if Swahili's not our mother tongue?
A lie for The Cause never hurt anyone!
"Umoja! Ujima! Kujichagulia, too!
Collectivist crap never sounded so cool!
Those guilty white liberals -- easy to fool.
Your kids will now celebrate Kwanzaa in school!"
And we heard him exclaim as he drove out of sight:
"Happy Kwanzaa to all, except if you're white!"
No one is bashing..
We dis-agree...Kawanza is not a holiday it is something made up. The Holiday is Christmas and Hannukkah celebrated by all creeds and races.
Kawanza has no place except in someone's mind.
I copy your link to the graphic with your permission.
No Virginia, there is not a Kwanzaa Claus.
Seriously... I'm sure the 3 people that actually buy this kwanzaa line really appreciate the President's heartfelt wishes.
BTW... no kwanzaa greetings from Jesse, Al and Calypso Louie? Whazzup wit dat?
Those who celebrate the holiday will often explain that its not just for African-Americans. Theyre not telling the whole story; in fact, its doubtful that everyone who celebrates Kwanzaa really knows its origins.
Most stories about Ronald McKinley Everett refer to him as Dr. Maulana Karenga, and rarely examine his past. But in recent years, much of the Everett/Karenga story has been told in a few print exposes, and in op-ed columns.
Forget the notion that Kwanzaa is a holiday for all people. Dr. Karenga states that he created it at the height of the black liberation movement as part of a re-Africanization Process - a going back to black.
Dr. Karenga, still just Ron Everett at the time, was heavily involved in the black power movement. He started an organization called US - United Slaves as a violent rival to the Black Panthers. Everett and his organization became dupes of the FBI which wanted to use radical groups such as the United Slaves to split and discredit the Left.
He dropped the Everett name and adopted the Swahili one, which means master teacher, shaved his head, and began wearing traditional African clothing. US members, similarly attired, and often encouraged by the FBI, clashed with the Panthers over which group would control the new Afro-American Studies Center at UCLA.
There were incidents involving beatings and shootings, including one in 1969 in which two US members shot and killed two Black Panthers.
Dr. Karenga had other run-ins with the law, including charges that he abused women. In 1971, he was convicted of assaulting female members of US and he served time in prison.
A Los Angeles Times snippet describes the torture of the women as involving a hot soldering iron placed in the mouth of one, while the others toe was mashed in a vise.
For his part, Dr. Karenga insists that he is the victim in all this; he was quoted in the Dallas News: All the negative charges are in fact disinformation and frame-ups by the FBI and local and national police.
Members of the multicultural community either believe his denials, or they dont care. But they have to face the fact that they are accepting the teachings of a man whose organization and who personally committed heinous crimes against members of his own race.
So what happened to Dr. Maulana Karenga after he served his time in prison? Some nine years after Kwanzaa was invented, he decided to moderate his views and become a Marxist. In 1979, he was hired to run the Black Studies Department at Cal State Long Beach, in all likelihood, the first ex-con to do so.
His biography, appearing on a web site called Profiles in Black, says that he is also chair of the Presidents [Clinton] Task Force on Multicultural Education and Campus Diversity at Cal State Long Beach, and director of the Kawaida Institute of Pan-African Studies.
It also lists him as chairman of Operation Us (sound familiar?) which the site says means black people so named to stress the communitarian focus of his philosophy, Kawaida, which is an on-going synthesis of the best of African thought and practice.
The extensive bio made it apparent that Dr. Karenga is enamored with all things African though it never once mentions anything about United Slaves, or shootings, or the torture of women, or prison time.
The militant past of the creator is now ignored in favor of the co-called seven principles of Nguza Saba principles such as unity, family and self-determination that could have come from Bill Bennetts Book of Virtues although Bennett would not likely approve of the collectivist tone of the principles.
Dr. Karenga does his part to promote the holiday and blur his personal history. In December, he goes on an annual Kwanzaa circuit of speeches and appearances. And he writes. Among his writings are many articles and ten books, mostly concerning Black Studies, and his commentaries on ancient Egyptian texts.
And, remember that little article in the World Book Encyclopedia that legitimized Dr. Karenga as a black cultural leader? You guessed it he wrote the article himself.
Toward the end of his presidency, Bill Clinton issued a formal proclamation in support of Kwanzaa.
In all seriousness, how many people actually observe Kwanzaa in the US? I'd wager that more people voted for Dennis Kucinich for President, yet it gets the same treatment as Christmas and Hannukah.
Politicians will do anything for votes. Votes = power. Power is the objective. Nothing else matters to these people.
