One of the reasons we love sports is because of the anticipation of greatness, the thrill of the unknown and the fact that anything can happen on any given day – especially when you just stuck a shot a foot from the pin! Now it's time to mark your ball and wait for the underlings to meet you on the green, but you don't want to use some spare change or a broken tee to mark the beauty of your last stroke. Mark your ball with the one thing worthy of such an accomplishment: a marker bearing the logo of the Ottawa Senators.

Well, he wasn't either, and this also wasn't a move to make their (current) team better. Per usual, the now is inconsequential.
Would anyone be shocked to see McGahee walk in off the street with his robotically repaired knee and still look just as good as Richardson?
Not to dump on the guy - seems like a class mother fucker that might be solid in Indy if he can stay healthy - but just lacked that difference-making quality that a guy picked in his spot was supposed to have (that I thought he would have).

Dime: You're as closely associated with the Cleveland Cavaliers as any player. What's your view of the LeBron James situation?
BD: You know, you have to look at both sides of the alley. The only thing I had an issue with was "The Decision" show. I didn't appreciate that, and I think as LeBron gets older he'll look back and realize maybe he could have done that differently.
Other than that my view of the whole situation is, he worked hard, he became a free agent, he left: Get over it. Why does he owe Cleveland anything? That's one thing about pro sports that pisses me off is this whole idea of loyalty, how a player is supposed to be loyal. But you take another guy on the team — say he's from Cleveland but he's the 12th guy on the team — is there a big uproar when they cut him? If a guy is averaging one point a game, is there an uproar?
Listen, this is a business. LeBron James made a business decision. Everybody that's mad about "No loyalty," that's bull. If Dan Gilbert had for whatever reason decided to trade him — which likely would have happened toward the end of his career — it would have been, "Well, I hate to lose him."
You can't have it both ways. What LeBron did was perfectly fine. If he'd broken his leg or messed up his knees … If he'd become a free agent with two blown-out ACL's, do you think they would have offered him a contract just because he's the hometown hero? Hell no!
I hate that LeBron left Cleveland because I think they were actually really close to winning a championship. I hate it for that. But sitting here saying he's done anything wrong? He did everything by the rules, so he deserves his opportunity to play in Miami or wherever he chooses to play. Get over it.

It's just sad, and I believe of all people trivassanno said it best a few days ago. The players don't care about the fans, the people who in essence are paying their salary and go and support them.
Just a very stupid attitude.

A tighter seal and no mess!
If you�ve had no success sealing partially used tubes of caulk with tape or a nail, try this method used by Club member Corbin Sebestyn of Lockhart, Texas. He cuts off the entire tip from an empty tube of caulk and cleans out any caulk that�s left inside. Next, he fuses the pointed end of the cut tip by heating it with a match or lighter and then squeezing the softened tip with a pliers. When slipped over the tip of an open caulk tube, this modified tip provides a tight seal.

Cairn Terrier History
- The Cairn terrier is one of the oldest terriers, probably existing since the 1400s.
- They were used on the Scottish Isle of Skye to hunt fox, badger and otter. Their name comes from their prowess at bolting otter from cairns, which were piles of stone that served as landmarks or memorials.
- At one time all the terriers from that region were considered the same breed, so that when they began to be shown in dog shows in the 1870s, the Cairn and several others were grouped together as Scotch terriers.
- In 1881 the Scotch terriers were divided into Dandie Dinmont and Skye terriers, with Cairns in the Skye terrier group. By the end of that year the Skye terrier group was subdivided into Skye and hard-haired terriers, with Cairns in the latter. Eventually the Hard-haired Terriers were again divided into three breeds, which would be come the Scottish, West Highland white and Cairn terriers.
- Around 1912 the breed became known as the Cairn terrier.
- The AKC recognized the breed in 1913.
- The most well-known Cairn was Toto, the dog in the Wizard of Oz movie.

- Learns quickly and is eager to please, but also bores quickly, and may come up with its own ideas.
- Some tend to bark a lot, which should be discouraged from an early age.
- Many like to dig.
Cairn Terrier Suggested Exercises
- Makes a lively and alert housedog.
- Its exercise needs can be met with a long walk or short run, along with a vigorous game. They also need a chance to sniff and explore in a safe place or on leash.
- They tend to go off hunting and may not come when called.
- Cairns tend to enjoy and do well at dog parks, although care must be taken not to allow them to bully other dogs.
- Games and tricks provide needed mental exercise.
Cairn Terrier Grooming
- Coat is profuse, harsh and straight.
- The coat needs combing once or twice weekly.
- Shaping of the coat by plucking out dead hairs every six months is required to keep it tidy looking.
- Shedding is below average.
Suggested Cairn Terrier Nutritional Needs
- Cairns tend to stay in good weight.
- Adult dogs should be fed a balanced diet, with restricted calories if the dog starts to gain too much weight.

Your Move When Appraisals Lag Home Price Recovery
NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- Like many young things, the housing recovery is suffering some growing pains, as appraisals lag rising prices and make it difficult for borrowers to get loans.
The problem, mortgage-data firm HSH Associates says, starts with the conservative appraisal standards implemented during the financial crisis. That is compounded by a natural lag in comparable-sales data. The result -- appraisals coming in lower than the price seller and buyer have set -- is a possibility both parties need to take into account as they enter this changing market.
"While low home values continue to be an obstacle in the way of a full housing recovery, more and more markets in recent months have experienced home-price improvements," HSH reports. "Although home prices are up in some areas, many real estate agents, homeowners and homebuyers alike are frustrated that appraisals aren't keeping pace with current home-price appreciation."
In places where the number of home sales remains low, appraisers do not have many recent sales to examine in establishing current values, HSH says. Relying on sales from many months earlier means using data that do not reflect recent price increases. Also, many appraisals are being done by out-of-town appraisers who do not have a feel for recent changes in the local market, HSH reports. It cites a recent survey by the National Association of Realtors that found 34% of realtors reporting problems with appraisals in the past dozen months.
When the appraiser sets a value lower than the mortgage the buyer needs, the lender will deny the loan.
What can buyer and seller do?
First, they need to be realistic about prices. The seller, especially, should recognize that recent home price gains have been modest. People are enthusiastic about the housing market because it appears to have turned a corner -- because prices are no longer falling. That doesn't means they're soaring.
Both parties can use sites such as Realtor.com, Trulia (TRLA) and Zillow (Z) to assess prices from sales in the past two or three months. Be sure the homes are really comparable to the subject property, then use the comps to calculate a price per square foot that can be applied to homes in the neighborhood.
The real estate agent will also have thoughts on this. Each party should pick an agent who has been in the local market for a number of years and has lots of current listings and recent closings. Part-timers and newcomers won't have enough feel for the market to spot recent trends.
Keep in mind, though, that an agent has a financial incentive to encourage the seller to be "realistic" about price, or to ask a bit less. Most agents would prefer a slightly smaller commission for a home that sells quickly.

The execution initially caused an uproar for its senselessness, but now reports say Jang Song Thaek died in a horrible manner. The Straits Times of Singapore said, "Then 120 hounds, starved for three days, were allowed to prey on them until they were completely eaten up. This is called 'quan jue,' or 'execution by dogs.'"

Before Jagex I studied BA Web & Multimedia at the University of Teesside. My degree wasn't specifically aimed at any particular industry, but throughout university I was always focused on developing my skills in animation. Shortly after completing my degree, I was offered a piece of freelance work for a London-based games company that involved animating various character sets using Flash.
I had played RuneScape briefly in the past so I knew of Jagex but it was mainly through a friend at university who pointed me in their direction. The year before I graduated I met two people from Jagex at a careers fair, they gave me their business card and encouraged me to apply. I still had a year left at university at this point so I felt I should wait before applying, luckily there was a Flash Animator position available when I was close to completing my degree. I applied through the careers website and was contacted shortly after.
I have been with the company since July 2011 so I am still pretty new to the industry, but have learnt so much in such a short amount of time. My current role is Flash Animator which consists of creating animations for our websites, game trailers and other things that advertise our products. I also get involved in video editing and motion graphics for our game trailers and community videos using our in-house tools and After Effects.
My day can be completely different depending on the project but usually involves being given artwork by the illustrator on my team and asked to come up with ideas for how to animate it. I would then take the images into Flash or After Effects and experiment with different techniques of animating the image and adding effects to make it look visually appealing. Other days could involve capturing footage from the game and using it in videos or creating motion graphics for game trailers and community videos.
Getting paid for doing something I love is the main thing but there are so many perks and benefits to working at Jagex. It's great to be able to walk across the room and get advice from people who have a lot more experience in the industry than I do. I also live pretty close to work so I was able to sell my car and start cycling, saving me a lot of money and also forcing me to exercise which is something I used to avoid.
My favourite perk has to be the free gym membership. The gym is only 5 minutes walk from work so being able to go during lunch for free is great! It's really motivating to see a lot of other people from Jagex taking advantage of the gym too so there is always someone there to compete with (I mean talk to..)
My favourite memory so far would have to be the Christmas party. Jagex really do go all out on the Christmas parties and as it was my first time, I didn't really know what to expect. It happened shortly after a big project had just been completed so it was great to be able to relax and take advantage of the free bar.
As this is my first job in the industry it's hard for me to compare, but Jagex seems quite unique from what I have heard about other companies. It's got such a relaxed atmosphere and the people here are all really helpful and friendly.
Having an interesting and creative portfolio is the main thing. I got offered the job before my university results came through, so the decision to hire me must have been based primarily on my portfolio. Being a gamer is also a good thing but not essential as there are people at Jagex who don't play games, but being passionate about the games industry is a must.

The diagram below shows the key points to measure when calculating size, then simply select the correct size from the chart above. It's best to actually take body measurements rather than measuring over clothes. You shouldn't need to 'size up' or 'down' unless you have a particular fit preference of course.
Back to top
Keep your bra on and measure in inches around your ribcage directly under your bust.
This gives you the band or back size. When measuring, you should always round down! Your underband should be snug, e.g. If you achieve 29.5 ins then round down.
For example: your underband measurement is 29in then add 5 ins - you are a 34.
Now measure around the fullest part of your bust, the full bust measurement less underband = cup size. When measuring, you should always round up!
The over bust measurement should always be generous, e.g. If you achieve 34.5 ins then round up to 35 ins.
width - toes should have room to spread with no bulges at the shoes widest part.length - there should be half an inch (1.25cm) between the end of the shoe and the longest toe.
High leg boots that do not have any stretch material in them will not fit everyone. To find out whether boots will fit, use the calf measurement chart below.

Time to Reconsider the Dividend-Paying Stock
NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- In normal times, a fixed-income investor would be well served by a sizable allocation to certificates of deposit. With a good laddering strategy, you could tie up some money in long-term CDs for higher yields and use short-term CDs for quick access to your money. And FDIC insurance would guarantee against loss.
But times have not been normal for years, and CD yields remain so low that an allocation to longer-term CDs wouldn't earn enough to justify locking your money away. The five-year CD yield averages a paltry 0.795%, according to the BankingMyWay.com survey. With earnings that low, you might as well keep your cash in a checking account, emphasizing safety and liquidity over income.
But yield-hungry investors might also be wise to take another look at an asset class many have shunned in recent years: dividend-paying stocks. Some, such as Verizon (VZ) and AT&T (T) , are yielding well over 4%.
Granted, dividend payers are not a perfect alternative to bank savings. Stocks can lose money and often do, and companies that run into trouble sometimes trim or eliminate their dividends. It would be foolish to put next week's grocery money into any stock, no matter how big the dividend.
But not all cash is kept for immediate expenses, or even for a rainy-day fund. Many investors have built up cash reserves by shifting money out of the bond portions of their portfolios. Bond yields are also very stingy today, and bond holdings, unlike bank savings, can lose value if rising interest rates reduce demand for older bonds paying lower yields.
Although bond investors have done very well in recent decades, that's because falling interest rates had the opposite effect, making older, more generous bonds sell at a premium. Now the music has stopped and yields are much more likely to rise than to fall, making bonds very risky. Yields are just too low to justify that risk, with the 10-year U.S. Treasury bond paying just 1.88%.
That makes the higher yields on dividend-paying stocks pretty attractive. But what about the risks?
No one can forecast the stock market for sure, but Jeremy Siegel, the Wharton business school professor and author of the bestseller Stocks for the Long Run , believes stock market risks are low enough to make dividends a good option for some money that at other times would be allocated to bonds.
A key factor, he says, is the relatively modest "PE ratio" figured by dividing stock prices by annual corporate earnings. Today, the ratio for the Standard & Poor's 500 stock index is around 14, about half what it was when that index was around this same level more than a decade ago. The lower the ratio, the safer the stock market, because investors are paying less for every dollar of corporate earnings, which are used to pay dividends or to reinvest in ways intended to boost the stock price.

Skip to comments.Obama issues call for gun ban
Posted on 12/21/2012 9:40:04 AM PST by pabianice
A Message from President Obama about Your Petition on Reducing Gun Violence
In the days since the tragedy in Newtown, Americans from all over the country have called for action to deter mass shootings and reduce gun violence. Hundreds of thousands of you have signed petitions on We the People.
I'm writing you today to thank you for speaking up, to update you on an important development, and to encourage you to continue engaging with the White House on this critical issue.
First, you should know that President Obama is paying close to attention to the public response to this tragedy. In fact, he sat down to record a message specifically for those of you who have joined the conversation using We the People. Watch it now:
On Wednesday, the President outlined a series of first steps we can take to begin the work of ending this cycle of violence. This is what he said:
"We know this is a complex issue that stirs deeply held passions and political divides. And as I said on Sunday night, there's no law or set of laws that can prevent every senseless act of violence in our society. We're going to need to work on making access to mental health care at least as easy as access to a gun. We're going to need to look more closely at a culture that all too often glorifies guns and violence. And any actions we must take must begin inside the home and inside our hearts.
But the fact that this problem is complex can no longer be an excuse for doing nothing. The fact that we can't prevent every act of violence doesn't mean we can't steadily reduce the violence, and prevent the very worst violence."
Vice President Biden has been asked to work with members of the Administration, Congress, and the general public to come up with a set of concrete policy proposals by next month -- proposals the President intends to push swiftly. The President asked the Vice President to lead this effort in part because he wrote and passed the 1994 Crime Bill that helped law enforcement bring down the rate of violent crime in America. That bill included the assault weapons ban, which expired in 2004.
As the Vice President's Chief of Staff, I'm going to do everything I can to ensure we run a process that includes perspectives from all sides of the issue, which is why I wanted to respond to your petition myself. Two decades ago, as domestic policy adviser in the Clinton White House, I first worked with Joe Biden as he fought to enact the Crime Bill, the assault weapons ban, and the Brady Bill. I will never forget what a key role the voices of concerned citizens like you played in that vital process.
The President called on Congress to pass important legislation "banning the sale of military-style assault weapons," "banning the sale of high-capacity ammunition clips," and "requiring background checks before all gun purchases, so that criminals cant take advantage of legal loopholes to buy a gun from somebody who wont take the responsibility of doing a background check at all."
An issue this serious and complex isn't going to be resolved with a single legislative proposal or policy prescription. And let's be clear, any action we take will respect the Second Amendment. As the President said:
"Look, like the majority of Americans, I believe that the Second Amendment guarantees an individual right to bear arms. This country has a strong tradition of gun ownership that's been handed down from generation to generation. Obviously across the country there are regional differences. There are differences between how people feel in urban areas and rural areas. And the fact is the vast majority of gun owners in America are responsible -- they buy their guns legally and they use them safely, whether for hunting or sport shooting, collection or protection.
But you know what, I am also betting that the majority -- the vast majority -- of responsible, law-abiding gun owners would be some of the first to say that we should be able to keep an irresponsible, law-breaking few from buying a weapon of war. I'm willing to bet that they don't think that using a gun and using common sense are incompatible ideas -- that an unbalanced man shouldn't be able to get his hands on a military-style assault rifle so easily; that in this age of technology, we should be able to check someone's criminal records before he or she can check out at a gun show; that if we work harder to keep guns out of the hands of dangerous people, there would be fewer atrocities like the one in Newtown -- or any of the lesser-known tragedies that visit small towns and big cities all across America every day."
The President said it best: "Ultimately if this effort is to succeed it's going to require the help of the American people -- it's going to require all of you. If we're going to change things, it's going to take a wave of Americans -- mothers and fathers, daughters and sons, pastors, law enforcement, mental health professionals -- and, yes, gun owners -- standing up and saying 'enough' on behalf of our kids."
So let's continue this conversation and get something meaningful done. If you have additional ideas and are interested in further engagement with the White House on this issue, please let us know and share your thoughts here:
Thank you for speaking out and staying involved. Stay Connected
Tell us what you think about this response and We the People.
Stay connected to the White House by signing up for periodic email updates from President Obama and other senior administration officials.
Nah, No Obama.
Get Rahm to fix Chicago using the Theories of Zer0 and then get back to us.
To Obama, The Democrats, the useful idiots who did not study history.
Our rights are not yours to take.
1. We will see things like prior prescriptions of Ritalin, void one's rights to own a weapon. Same thing for NSAID prescriptions, etc.
2. I'm sure we'll see people like that nutball Quentin Tarantino thrown in jail for incitement to violence with his movies. Nor will we see the computer geeks who write and sell violent video games be sanctioned.
3. Scariest of all. You'd think on the surface he's talking about attitudes. Far from it. It means they will try at some point to go through each recalcitrant's homes searching for violent weapons.
Of course he means government doing nothing. But what if the problem is too complex for government (i.e. moral problem)? Or what if the proposed government action (gun bans) increase the problem? What if less government would actually improve the situation (i.e. eliminate gun-free zones)?
Democrats want to empower government and to take away our individual rights and freedom.
Democrats including the media, democrat politicians, and the Obama piece of crap want to make us slaves of the government. They are enraged that we can even own any thing like land or guns or have any rights at all. They want to control everything and thats why they want the government to own everything so then the government has absolute power.
The individual is small and powerless. The government is huge with trillions of $ at its disposal. The government has guns, armies etc. But a democrat thinks the government is not powerful enough and a democrat always wants to give more power to government and to take away power and rights from the individual. Doesnt a stupid liberal realize that it too is an individual and are fostering their own enslavement and dis-empowerment, giving up its own rights?
liberals/democrats trust government bureaucrats ,politicians and government with their lives. Government is their God and so they are socialists/statists.
government spent trillions funding decades of fake research for the global warming hoax . this shows government/socialism never works. also around only 7% of 8th graders CAn read , 93% can't read( again proves government schools don't work so gov doesn't work).Yet even here many are calling for arming the school idiots instead of abolishing the government schools completely. How about we educuate and protect our children in our homes or a private school instead of in government schools?
Let's ban guns in Chicago and see how that works.
Maybe someone needs to send him a copy of "Unintended Consequences".
First ban giving them away to drug cartels and then call me back a$$hole!
These people are idiots. The cretin in CT (I will not acknowledge his name)DID NOT BUY the firearms he used. HE STOLE THEM.
There are already laws on the books against this and they didn't stop him, what makes these idiots think more laws will?
This is a situation where you $hit in one hand and wish in the other to see which one fills the fastest.
Yes, yes, yes.
I've started to post similar several times.
Mostly boys, drugged out in school. An entire class of 'not eligible to own a firearm' men. I'll bet that's exactly what is in the works.
Just listened to LaPierre on Rush. Awesome, spot on and damning to the loony left and their enablers. They created the culture of Kill...and more and more you have to wonder if its deliberate, focused just to disarm the people.
You mean like urban culture, like one would find all over Chicago? When Rahm and Obama find a way to clean up their town, then they can start urging the rest of us t copy their success.
So, Mr President, go after Chicago urban culture that glorifies violence (rap music, BET, gangs, etc), and then let us know about the results.
The news media make mass shooters world famous. The media makes mass shooters household names.
so of course these idiot shooters do it to become world famous, the next star.
No one ever paid any attention to these loner mass shooters. Women especially ignored them so what they want most of all is attention, fame , to become someone important.
It is not necessary to name the idiot and especially not show ever detail of its life to report this but the media know they are egging on the next shooter, creating copy cats, and daring one to top the previous shooter to become even more famous.
Well....sort of...but...in the vernacular, if the rap, game or culture happens to say something like "hittin' it from the back" or "bustacapinhimass," then it's completely acceptable to Obama.
Here's an idea...
Mr. President, you don't have the legit power to do so. Neither does Congress.
So, no. No gun bans for you.
We'll say it louder if we have to.
When it comes to altering or removing any of my Bill of Rights be advised that I am a majority of one and notwithstanding my lack of public response, I did not nor will I authorize any individual, agency, political body, or government official to speak or act in my stead concerning any infringements on my rights.
Be not deceived. It would be a serious mistake for anyone to assume otherwise or to not believe that governments are created by me and We the People to protect and preserve those rights -- not to alter, change or destroy them.
As usual, the left is going after the WRONG issue. It's not about guns, it's about CONTROLLING CHILDREN THROUGH DISCIPLINE, and it MUST start at a young age or it's counterproductive.
So let me get this straight, he says he believes the 2nd Amendment protects the individual the right to keep and bear arms but that because so many of the criminals on the streets (who the left put on the streets) are continuing to break the law and steal legally owned firearms, the answer is to ban the firearms.
So it's better to keep violent criminals on the streets than to keep them in jail?
So if we take away the firearms from the law-abiding citizens, that will keep these criminals that the left turns loose upon the citizenry will simply stop their violent crimes?
The stupidity of these liberals just makes the head spin trying to figure out where to begin proving their stupidity.
Whether by Law, executive order or UN treaty, they are going to disarm us. :)
Yes, but you missed a key point.
It was these statists via the ACLU that made it extremely difficult to commit the violently insane (you can apply whatever PC label you want) and to get them off the streets.
It was the ACLU, suing Byberry, that put hundreds if not thousands of "homeless" on the streets in Philadelphia, people that soon started jumping in the Delaware because they had no better sense.
Is that humane? The leftists treat abandoned cats and animals with more humanity.
And now, as a result of these 'homeless,' the leftists in Seattle have "tent cities" set up in the back homes of any of their targeted neighborhoods. They shove these criminals in the faces of the home-owner and then demand more funds to help them.
Build an institution and commit them. There were atrocities in the state-run facilities (why we should never trust the state to run our healthcare), but we can fix that a lot easier than we can fix the insane and the criminals wandering our streets.
If there is any truth to this, if Obama's intention is to spark a civil war, I know of no better way.
Thanks. Good informational post. If we read and consider all of the content (or lack of) and really think about it, that response to anti-Second-Amendment petitions is making the radical anti-Second-Amendment lefties really mad. There's nothing in it that agrees with what they want.
Even most working class Democrats agree with at least some freedoms and that firearms are very much in style. The "upscale" (flush with cash flow from government debt), anti-Second-Amendment left, along with only a small portion of Republicans (also debt-supported), are certainly overwhelmed by the vast majority of the pro-Second-Amendment, voting population.
Oh I know this...have known for some time. Their position on actually violating the rights of an effing crazy person just shows us that their end goal is confiscate all guns because they certainly about to violate the nutballs' rights.
You know, once they get rid of the second ammendment, they'll be coming in full force for the first.....
Hey Odumbo, go orally stimulate a goat.
Any gun control measures will stop at the House of Representatives for sure and probably in the Senate. In Calirado, gun control will stop at a large and convincing enough call (and determination) for voting out certain incumbents.
Now that it appears that the Mayan calender thing didn't work out...HELP OBAMA! SAVE US FROM OURSELVES! WE HAVE TOO MUCH FREEDOM! CHAIN US UP AND PROTECT US FROM EACH OTHER!
Questions that I wonder about
Are Americans too lazy and fat to have another civil war?
What exactly would it take for citizens to stand up and say no?
I what point have enough civil rights be removed for the majority of people to notice?
Are Americans too stupid to even understand what is happening?
PERSONALLY I think that Americans are too lazy and too far gone to do anything about this or any other subject. I think a lot of Americans would enjoy socialism.
Some say there could never be another civil war in America. I wonder.
There are some threads on Free Republic that say it can never happen again.
To quote Winston Churchill, "Now this is not the end. It is not even the beginning of the end. But it is, perhaps, the end of the beginning."
Is there really anyone stupid enough to believe it will end with a ban on "assault" weapons?
[Assault weapons] menacing looks, coupled with the publics confusion over fully-automatic machine guns versus semi- automatic assault weapons anything that looks like a machine gun is assumed to be a machine gun can only increase the chance of public support for restrictions on these weapons. Josh Sugarmann, executive director of New Right Watch, spokesman for the National Coalition to Ban Handguns, Assault Weapons and Accessories in America, policy report of New Right Watch and the Education Fund to End Handgun Violence, September 1988
Our main agenda is to have all guns banned. We must use whatever means possible. It does not matter if you have to distort facts or even lie.
-Sarah Brady, Handgun Control, Inc., The National Educator, January, 1994
If I could have gotten 51 votes in the Senate of the United States for an out right ban, picking up every one of them... Mr. and Mrs. America, turn em all in, I would have done it. I could not do that. The votes werent here.-Dianne Feinstein, Senator, CBS-TVs 60 Minutes, February 5, 1995
Certainly one of the chief guarantees of freedom under any government, no matter how popular and respected, is the right of the citizen to keep and bear arms. This is not to say that firearms should not be very carefully used and that definite rules of precaution should not be taught and enforced. But the right of the citizen to bear arms is just one more safeguard against a tyranny which now appears remote in America, but which historically has proved to be always possible. - Hubert Humphrey(bitter clinger), 1960
Necessity is the plea for every infringement of human freedom. It is the argument of tyrants; it is the creed of slaves.- William Pitt, 1783
Gun bans dont disarm criminals, gun bans attract them.- Walter Mondale, U.S. Ambassador to Japan(bitter clinger), April 20, 1994
And so it begins...
"Maybe someone needs to send him a copy of Unintended Consequences."
Somebody ought to get that book back into print, QUICKLY.
Even used copies run about $150 at used book outlets...
It can be found on the net in pdf format, if you dig for it...
Refuse. Resist.
The rats an media need to be reminded that they had the house, the senate and the president from 08 to 10. They could have passed this back then .... Ban, confiscation etc ... Was theirs for the taking.
They played politics to win a second term.... Allegedly per their own descriptive agenda ....the reason these kids were murdered....
They had the capabilities, resources and votes to play this the way they want now ..... Then

From the battlefield to the backyard with everyone's favorite tape�duct tape.
It's in every�handyman�s toolbox, every family�s kitchen drawer, just about every hiker�s backpack and these days, it�s an inspiration to crafters nationwide.�It�s duct tape. And it�s indispensible.
Originally nicknamed �duck� tape for its water- repelling power, this tough, easy-to-rip sticky stuff, originally drab olive green in color, was first developed by the Johnson & Johnson company during World War II for American soldiers to keep their ammunition kits dry.
Post-war, civilians adapted the versatile product, soon manufactured in its more familiar silver hue, for around-the-house duties such as piecing together and patching heat and air-conditioning ducts�hence the later �duct tape� name.�Duct tape is now available in dozens of patterns and colors and has also claimed fame as a trendy art and fashion material.
Duck or Duct?
Duct tape, made and marketed by several companies, is the official name of the extremely strong tape made of durable plastic, fabric mesh and rubber-based adhesive. �Duck� tape is its longtime nickname, as well as the moniker of the popular Duck Tape brand manufactured by ShurTech in Cleveland, Ohio.
Through the Years
-According to the World War II-era 1945 Johnson & Johnson Annual Report, �Hundreds of thousands of miles of special waterproof tapes were used on tanks, planes and ammunition destined for overseas.�
-Duct tape has been carried aboard every NASA space mission since 1965.
-In a celebrated 2012 episode of Discovery Channel�s Mythbusters, hosts Adam Savage and Jaime Hyneman are dropped on a deserted island armed with nothing�but a pallet of duct tape. In a previous episode, they built a duct tape rope bridge and demonstrated it could hold up to 67.3 pounds.
Calling All Dads!
The 11th annual Avon Heritage Duct Tape Festival June 13-15, 2014, Avon, Ohio
This annual Father�s Day weekend celebration attracts thousands to the Duct Tape Capital of the�World. Events include a Duck Tape Parade featuring massive floats made of duct tape and pageant queens decked out in glittery duct tape gowns. Other attractions: duct tape sculptures up to 15 feet tall, past winners of Duck brand�s �Stuckon Prom� Contest and duct-tape fashioned gownsfeatured on TV�s Project Runway.This article originally appeared as on American Profile

Skip to comments.Homosexuality and Mental Health
Posted on 03/22/2013 8:12:52 AM PDT by fwdude
It was never a medical decisionand thats why I think the action came so fast It was a political move Thats how far weve come in ten years. Now we even have the American Psychiatric Association running scared.
-Barbara Gittings, Activist
Getting Started
The American Psychiatric Association (APA) currently considers same-sex attraction a diagnosable and treatable mental disorder if one is marked by persistent distress about their sexual orientation. The disorder is listed in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders-IV TR (DMS-IV TR) as a paraphilia, euphemistically entitled, Sexual Orientation Not Otherwise Specified.
Psychiatrists began to use this clunky phrase to refer to homosexuality in 1987, after compromising with radical activists for more than a decade about what constitutes politically-correct verbiage. Negotiations have centered primarily on how to balance the demands of radical political activists with the right of the individual patient to self-determination, which requires that psychiatry leave the doors open to treatment and implies that homosexuality is in fact a mental disorder.
(Excerpt) Read more at ryansorba.blogspot.com ...
A long read but worth it.
Duh! You need a PHD to point out the obvious these days?
A PHD is a liability when it comes to apprehending truth. Look at how many of them are liberal loons.
Don't anger the fang-toothed man-hating feminazis.
Prior to December 14, 1973, the American Psychiatric Association (APA) considered same-sex attraction a disorder. The disorder was listed in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders-II (DSM-II) under the label, Homosexuality. Psychiatrys authoritative voice influenced public opinion, which at the time was negative toward both sodomy and the types of people who engaged in such acts. Although public sexual activity in parks and public restrooms contributed to societies negative views, scientific opinion was crucial in the public attitude.
No, but when the lefties move the goalposts and then claim the posts have been in the same place all along we have lost any objectivity.
Smug militant gays will point to 'studies' and the DSM and claim homosexuality is as normal as breathing when the scientific method, empirical data and the DSM itself have been intentionally corrupted to produce an outcome. It worked so well that the climate change types thought they would try it but absent the same sort of personal emotional bias among most (pro or con) the ruse was discovered and most sane people recognized the manipulation for what it was.
The coordinated effort to destigmatize homosexuality has, inevitably, opened the Pandora's box of deviancy and delusion, with sordid tales of parents claiming their six year olds are 'transgendered' and demanding the wholesale retrofitting of schools, malls and other public facilities regardless of the cost or any application of common sense or skepticism.
"Besides the ALA, I was also very involved, along with many other people, in efforts to get the American Psychiatric Association to drop its listing of homosexuality as a mental illness. Psychiatrists were one of the three major groups that had their hands on us. They had a kind of control over our fate, in the eyes of the public, for a long time. Religion and law were the other two groups that had their hands on us. So, besides being sick, we were sinful and criminal. But the sickness label infected everything that we said and made it difficult for us to gain any credibility for anything we said ourselves. The sickness issue was paramount."
They have, for all practical purposes, conquered psychiatry and law. The only group that still largely stands in their way is religion, and they are steadily making inroads there, or at least creating the public perception that they are.
All of their malice and energies can, and will be, now focused on Christianity, make no mistake. Never believe the fake assurances given by homosexual apologists that churches would never be forced to affirm homosexuality or to acknowledge counterfeit "marriage." It is coming, and we'll face confiscation of our property and incarceration when we resist.
This shows what an uncaring jackass Rob Portman is. His son has a high chance of being dead before he turns 50. Does he give a shit? No. As long as he's happy.
Never believe the fake assurances given by homosexual apologists that churches would never be forced to affirm homosexuality or to acknowledge counterfeit "marriage." It is coming, and we'll face confiscation of our property and incarceration when we resist.
If your sexual behavior is how you identify yourself, then doesn't that mean that it is the most important thing in your life? And if homosexuality is the most important thing in your life, then doesn't work become an obstacle to this behavior? Wouldn't your goal be to be paid to practice homosexuality? Welcome to the next step. Homosexuality as an accepted lifestyle for those who have jobs, and a disability for those who don't want, or have, jobs. Your hard-earned tax dollars are going to become Social Security Disability for an old homosexual so he can buy a blowjob at a bath house in San Francisco.
The outlandish behavior itself points to a serious pathology. Speaking anecdotally (for which there IS often something to be said) every homosexual I have been closely familiar with has had other emotional and psychological issues. Every one was on psychotropic drugs, had serious anger issues, and had debilitating problems relating to other people. Most are liberals and have the mindless liberal view on virtually everything, despise Christianity, and had horrible relationships with parents and siblings.
They just passed a law to make it illegal to point out the evils of homosexuality and the problems that go along with it. Homosexuality can NOT be voiced in a negative light.
It seems the psychiatric community has gone from recognizing it as a disorder, to neutral, to deciding it is normal.
Recently TV has been bombarding the air waves with commercials (pubic service announcements?) dissing people for using the term gay to describe something lame, stupid, ugly, gross or undesirable.
It's only fitting that the word gay is changing it's meaning again.
The homosexual community took the word to describe themselves to make it seem like being a homosexual was a life of rainbows, balloons and unicorns.
Gay used to mean a happy, fun loving individual
Then it was co-opted into a description of those that practice gross sexual perversions.
Kids started using it to describe something undesirable as I mentioned up post.
It's only fair that the word has changed meaning again.
If the homos get upset, my suggestion is to say we are not using the word you perverted into something gross, we spell it ghey when we use it.
This article is sooooooo gay!! (not buying into the PC suggestion that I posted above...let them get upset, they took a perfectly good word and perverted it.)
For years, posters at Free Republic have been using the acronym "SSAD" to describe the sickness that homosexuals practice: Same Sex Attraction Disorder
the evil of Sodom & Gomorrah continues..
As long as hes happy.
If it "feels good, do it" is missing the end of the sentence where the negative consequences are listed.
If herion feels good, do it; but know that it will totally control and kill you within ten years. It is ultimately a suicide mission.
Likewise, with anal sex. It may be your addictive desire but it will shorten your lifespan by twenty to thirty years because of all the diseases that come as a consequence to the behavior.
Every sin is tempting (feels good for the moment) and every sin has concequences (makes one suffer in the long term). God is not arbitrary in His guidebook to a human's happy and successful life on earth. Liberals racially slur that lifestyle as "white bread" and urge Americans to adopt a more "exciting" image and behaviors/lifestyle. That is a call to adopt a mentality and behaviors of self deceipt and self destruction.
All anyone has do is to be exposed to a few seconds of the gay "culture" to know how mentally ill the whole mess really is.

Yes, it is a mental illness. Yes, many people have left and continue to leave the "gay" life. Yes, the homonazi activists and their assistants do everything they can to hide the truth. So what is the solution to the increasing onslaught of pro-homonazi propaganda and lies?
My solution is to NOT SHUT UP and talk more loudly against it. Anyone other solutions welcome.
Anyone wanting on/off either ping list FREEPMAIL me.
There is a very good scientific reason that homosexually active men are banned from donating blood and organs. That they demand the "right" to donate is proof of their irrational persecution syndrome. Since when to people who've visited Haiti and the U.K protest for a "right" to donate blood? When do any sane people do so?
As far as psychology -what is notmal? Is it not what is predominantly observed in society, that incorporated historically and culturally -objectively when looking at arbitrary things, that which is not self destructive?
Homosexual sex is abnormal AND self destructive individually and societally -the sickness has always and always will be vowed by a normal culture with a negative bias.
The 'unbiased' culture you wish existed is the same 'unbiased' culture the leftists seek to impose upon us -get a clue and troll your leftist garbage elsewhere.
"But thirty-five years have passed since the infamous Stonewall riots of 1969 in New York, the Lexington and Concord of the gay liberation movement. During that time, homosexuals have carved out for themselves public spaces in every major American city, and many of the minor ones as well. They have had the chance to create whatever they wanted in those spaces, and what have they created? New spaces for locating sexual partners."
- Ronald G. Lee, "The Books were a Front for the Porn: The Truth About the Homosexual Rights Movement"
Not to mention GRIDS: Gay Related Immunodeficiency Syndrome (now disguised as AIDS)
It's well past time to revive these accurate terms again.
It's always makes something dark and horrible look just fine if you surround it with balloons, unicorns, and-—of course-—rainbows!
Probably because it was. Sorry, but the Hooker study is one I've reported on a few times and it should have been discredited at the outset. I'm not the only one here who's reported on it either. I'll see what I can find.
"Evelyn Hooker has been among the most influential figures in the highly successful movement to convince the American people that homosexuality is a "normal variant" of human sexual behavior. Her 1957 study, "The Adjustment of the Male Overt Homosexual" (Journal of Projective Techniques, 1957, 21, 18-31) is the most frequently cited scientific source for the argument that homosexuality is not a pathology, that homosexuals are as free from mental disorder as heterosexuals.CONCLUSION
Such assertions have not only found their way into standard psychology textbooks but have also provided a scientific basis for decisions in major court cases involving the legality of state sodomy laws and prohibitions against homosexual employment in certain state and local agencies (e.g., schools, police departments). Indeed, when the American Psychiatric Association debated the issue of homosexuality in 1973, Evelyn Hooker's work was Exhibit A for those who wanted to remove homosexuality from the group's list of mental disorders.
For many commentators and activists, the Hooker study effectively ended the debate over whether or not homosexuals were in any way abnormal in their relationships with each other and with the community at large. Today many Americans have accepted the idea that homosexuality is "normal" and "healthy" without realizing that such an opinion is derived in large measure from a single study -- one conducted by a UCLA professor whose previous laboratory subjects had been rats...
This unquestioning acceptance of "authorities" on the basis of professional reputation or political correctness threatens the integrity of our legal system. Judges must take greater responsibility for assessing the soundness and accuracy of testimony by so-called experts; yet, paradoxically, such a task is manifestly beyond the competence of the court. This dilemma is the consequence of the politicizing of the scientific community over the past several decades, particularly in questions of sexuality. The recent exposure of Kinsey's errors indicates just how long researchers have been careless or deliberately misleading in approaching sexual questions. And the widespread acclamation of recent, flawed studies "proving" that homosexuality is inherited genetically is evidence that the problem has only worsened over the years."
Thanks for the info.
It's really sad so many people put their trust in Hooker's studies, just as some put their faith in Kinsey's studies. Everybody needs to read what's posted above so they can have an informed opinion... but will they? I hope so.
I'm of the belief that gays just happen to have been simply another group culled from the masses to form another splinter group to further divide the country. There are all kinds of gays both liberal and conservative. If they weren't isolated they would be mixed in with the other general groups.
You're assuming that Portman wants or accepts his son being promiscuous as well as homosexual. That may not be the case.
Destroying core values is what degenerates are about. . More to the point is homosexuals destroy lives mentally and physically. Little boys are their obsession and have been for thousands of years. The Sandusky case barely scratched the underlying truth.
If Portman doesn't know that they are one and the same, he is stupider than I thought.
Hildred is a troll. Check it's comments (hardly any).
Probably a hireling.
And signed up 3/20 as an obvious sniper.
Parents in his position may be thinking they can't make their adult children heterosexual or completely chaste or monogamous but their actions can affect just how promiscuous or abandoned or reckless the children become. They could be terribly wrong about that, but I don't really see people engaging the argument.
When a child of a high profile public personality "comes out," the child pretty much has the upper hand; he can cause as much disruption as he wants, which will reflect poorly on the public figure, who has the most to lose. It is usually the path of least resistance to "go along to get along" and preserve his career. Chaney did this, as have several other politicians.
It's really a pernicious form of extortion.
Could you refer me to some reference as to your evidence lacking assertion? It is my understanding that Prop 8 was voted upon and became the law of the land UNTIL a judge set it aside. There was no need to defend it with evidence -it was those that wanted to overturn it that had the burden of proof. As well, when something is appealed there is no new evidence presented -the facts of the case remain as documented from the lower court.
YES REALLY -you stated as much yourself: "Normal" is just the mean and median of the data points, graphed along a bell curve." Normal people do not express love by engaging in self destructive intrinsically disordered activity...
Just a long-time lurker, new-time poster.
This and the other two links are good stuff. I'm going to be reading and responding in depth; this is just to let you know that I'm not ignoring you.
I don't know if that's been an issue as the data from the CDC is quite accessible:

Brittany History
- In the mid 1800s, French sportsmen in the Bretagne region of France crossed spaniels with setters from England. These setters probably were related to, but not the same as, today's English Setters.
- The resulting dogs were excellent woodcock dogs, both pointing and retrieving. Not only were they popular with the gentry, but poachers liked them because they were obedient and versatile.
- Many of these dogs were tailless or stub-tailed.
- The Brittany came to North America around 1925. Initially, sportsmen had a hard time accepting them because of their short tails, but their field trial abilities soon put an end to any problems of acceptance. The dogs were so good at field trials that they became the most popular pointing dog at competitive events.
- The AKC recognized them as the Brittany spaniel in 1934.
- In 1982, the name was changed to simply Brittany, because the dog's hunting style is more setter-like than spaniel-like. It is a pointing dog, not a flushing dog.

- This is not a breed for lazy people.
- Hunting and retrieving are favored activities.

- Obedience training is essential not only for control, but for the mental exercise it provides.
Brittany Grooming
- Coat is of medium length, either flat or wavy.
- The coat needs brushing and combing one or two times a week.
- Shedding is average.
Suggested Brittany Nutritional Needs
- Brittanys tend to stay in good weight or to be slightly overweight.
- Adult dogs should be fed a balanced diet, with restricted calories if the dog starts to gain too much weight.
- Puppies should be fed a balanced a puppy food.

How does this work? With an ALL-WORLD Receiver Kolb's only stat which was BETTER than McCoy [significantly] was his yards per attempt.
Why pay the money for someone who isn't astronomically better?
If we go get RGIII we can have a competition between Colt and him.
Flynn will be overpaid, and I rather it not be by Cleveland.
Let other teams pick up those guys. There is one LOCK in this draft at QB and that is Luck, and the Colts have become [again] ridiculously lucky (pun intendend?) to have the opportunity to pick up a sure thing at the top of the draft.
(RGIII has an huge ceiling, tons of potential, and will LIKELY succeed. But not a LOCK in the way Luck is)
I think Kolb would come cheap, and I think he has more potential to be good than Colt. Stronger arm. More experience in the West Coast (a system in which he DID have some good games).
I didn't say he'd be astronomically better, but if he's any better than Colt and can be had at a reasonable price, you make that move. Just like with any position on the team, if you can upgrade - even if just a little - you do that.
I don't think that stops you from going for RG3. But if you just fall back on the RG3 plan and you don't get him, then there isn't much left out there in FA and you might be stuck with another year of Colt. Which I know I personally could do without.
EDIT - If the Browns draft RG3, he's the starter Day 1. There is no competition at that point.

New England Patriots Autographed Memorabilia and Collectibles
The New England Patriots are one of the top franchises in the NFL. With eight Super Bowl appearances in the last 25 years, the Patriots have made it to the championship game more than any other team during that stretch. The Patriots success can be directly tied to the hiring of Bill Belichick in 2000 to serve as the team's head coach. Under Belichick, the Patriots have not had a losing season since 2000, and have won all but a couple of AFC East titles since 2001.
The Patriots have been the best and most consistent team in the NFL throughout recent history. Between 2001 and 2005, New England became just the second team in history to win three Super Bowls in a four-year span. Bill Belichick and superstar quarterback, Tom Brady, have been breaking records together since 2001; the most noted of their records being the longest win streak including regular season and postseason games in NFL history, a 21-game streak that spanned over two seasons. The Belichick/Brady era won their first Super Bowl against the St. Louis Rams following the 2001 season, in which Tom Brady was named Super Bowl MVP after leading the Patriots to a 20-17 victory. Two years removed from the first title in franchise history, the Patriots put together one of the best seasons ever and once again played in the championship game. Brady and the Patriots faced off against the Carolina Panthers in Super Bowl XXXVIII and squeaked out a 32-29 victory on a last-second field goal.
In 2004, the New England Patriots went on to become the seventh team in NFL history to win back-to-back Super Bowl titles. The Patriots entered the playoffs after a 14-2 regular season, and were the prohibitive favorites to win the title. Once in the playoffs, the Patriots got past the Indianapolis Colts and Pittsburgh Steelers in order to advance to Super Bowl XXXIX against the Philadelphia Eagles. New England etched its name in history with a 24-21 win over the Eagles; the team's run from 2003-2004 was the most successful two-year stretch by a team in NFL history, the 34 total wins in that span set an NFL record. A great way to commemorate the Patriots' triumph over the Eagles in the Super Bowl, fans can add this Teddy Bruschi plaque which highlights the team's road to the Super Bowl and their win over Philadelphia. Bruschi was the anchor on a Patriots defense that held the high-powered Eagles to just 21 points on the biggest stage the NFL has to offer.
The New England Patriots have served as the NFL's marquee franchise over the past 15 years. It's easy to see why the Patriots have built a national fan base and Pats memorabilia is collected worldwide. With three Super Bowl victories since 2001, the Patriots have been on top of the NFL world more often in recent history than any other team. With a future Hall of Famer in Tom Brady and impact players, like Rob Gronkowski, the Patriots provide collectors with a number of options as to where to turn to add depth and uniqueness to any sports collection.
- Tom Brady Autographed Footballs: Tom Brady will go down as one of the greatest quarterbacks in NFL history. As a four-time champion and three-time MVP, Brady has consistently led his Patriots to winning season after winning season, making him a Patriots legend and football icon. The time to invest in Tom Brady memorabilia is now, and not when this all-time great hangs up his cleats for the last time. An autographed Tom Brady football elevates an average collection to an ultimate ode to football that holds significant historic and monetary value. This specific ball commemorates Tom Brady's dominance during the 2007 season when he was named NFL MVP, an honor that he will be remembered for long after his eventual enshrinement in the Hall of Fame.
- Bill Belichick Memorabilia: A three-time AP NFL Coach of the Year winner, Bill Belichick is one of the premier head coaches in the league today. After each winning season, Belichick's legacy continues to grow and his memorabilia increases in value. Since Belichick will eventually be placed in the Hall of Fame next to fellow coaching legends, such as John Madden, Don Shula and Vince Lombardi, collectibles signed by the man behind the Patriots' success are of large long tail value that are a must for any collection dedicated to the New England team. With a large selection of Bill Belichick autographed memorabilia, collectors can honor his great contributions to the sport with a Belichick signed football or his dominance in New England with an autographed Patriots mini helmet.
- Rob Gronkowski Autographed Jerseys: Rob Gronkowski is one of the more electrifying players in football today. In just his second season in the league, Gronkowski set the single-season record for touchdowns scored by a tight end with 18 total touchdowns to make a name for himself in the NFL. An autographed Rob Gronkowski jersey would be a great addition to a New England Patriots collection because he is suited to become the next superstar Patriot. Each officially licensed NFL Patriots jersey is personally signed by Gronkowski and will only rise in value as he continues to tear through opposing defenses. As the centerpiece of a sports collection, jerseys are the ultimate ode to a player and the Gronk is a New England sensation to be recognized.
- Randy Moss Signed Photos: Behind only Jerry Rice, Randy Moss is widely considered to have been one of the best wide receivers to ever play in the NFL and his time with the Patriots provided some of the most significant highlights of his career. During the 2007 season, he literally rewrote the receiving record books. Moss caught 98 passes for 1,493 yards and posted a league record 23 touchdown catches. This signed Randy Moss photo adds historical context to any football collection, as it rightfully depicts Moss strolling into the end zone for one of his 156 career receiving touchdowns. With this photo and other autographed Randy Moss photos, fans and collectors can preserve the legacy of a New England Patriots icon forever.
