Don't even need to watch the video to answer.
(But I'll watch it anyway because it has Paul Rudd.)ReplyCancel
OK, I take it back. That guy is annoying and Paul barely even spoke. I got less than 2 minutes in before Mr ADD got on my nerves.ReplyCancel
Uhhh, yeah! Duh.ReplyCancel
I couldn't make it through the video either. But yes–in a heartbeat. He can keep his dollar.ReplyCancel
Paul must get lots of pus-say.ReplyCancel
Personally I think Rudd is more appealing than a lot of the guys that get shoved in our faces as hearthrobs, ladies men blah blah blah
like I'd take Rudd over Pitt, Clooney, the list goes on
but not Skarsgard, I like Nordic and tall, sorry PaulReplyCancel
@Tina, I'm a fan of the tall guys myself (ASkars is yummy, but THOR will always win), but Paul is wicked charming. I totally agree – I find Charming Potato as hot as cold toast.
@Disco, Paul looked totally uncomfortable, too. Mr ADD was dragging him along when he was still talking to the ladies.ReplyCancel
Yes. Yes I wudd. Haha! And Tina, I second that. Paul is wayyyy hotter than Brad, Leo, George and the rest of those psuedo-typical Hollywood "heart throbs". Paul is real and funny and goofy and perfectly imperfect.ReplyCancel
Wow do I wish I looked like Paul Rudd!ReplyCancel
wheres TTM? lol and yes i wouldReplyCancel
Hell yeah!! Even though it would probably be so normal and boring, he strikes me as a guy who gets shy when things get real. I still definitely would!ReplyCancel
I'd pay himReplyCancel
Painful and boring to watch.ReplyCancel
I'll say no purely because he looks like a total asshat that I know and I could never do that to Phoebe 😉ReplyCancel
How is this even a question?ReplyCancel
Yes, over and over again!!ReplyCancel
Did it bother anyone else when that faggish ADD dude(?) kept badgering the woman who said "No, I'm married and faithful to my husband"? To me it just showed how even the lowest of Z listers say "Fuck faithfulness" when it comes to sex and marriage.ReplyCancel
Hell. Yes.ReplyCancel
…well,obviously I think you boys(& girls)can learn something from these immediate & almost visceral responses.-Pretty much,across the board,we all want a guy like Paul. Who Knew?!?-(i'm still holding out for Daniel Day Lewis myself)but Paul is the ultimate second choice.BOYS-LEARN FROM THIS LESSON..PLEASE.ReplyCancel
…& act accordingly. teeheeReplyCancel

Engineering Social Contagions: Optimal Network Seeding in the Presence of Homophily

Forthcoming in Network Science
We use data on a real, large-scale social network of 27 million individuals interacting daily, together with the day-by-day adoption of a new mobile service product, to inform, build and analyze data-driven simulations of the effectiveness of seeding (network targeting) strategies under different social conditions. Three main results emerge from our simulations. First, failure to consider homophily creates significant overestimation of the effectiveness of seeding strategies, casting doubt on conclusions drawn by simulation studies that do not model homophily. Second, seeding is constrained by the small fraction of potential influencers that exist in the network. We find that seeding more than 0.2% of the population is wasteful because the gain from their adoption is lower than the gain from their natural adoption (without seeding). Third, seeding is more effective in the presence of greater social influence. Stronger peer influence creates a greater than additive effect when combined with seeding. Our findings call into question some conventional wisdom about these strategies and suggest that their overall effectiveness may be overestimated.

I have a question: My 10 month old and I have been exclusively breastfeeding since he was born. He eats meals with us but still pretty attached to my boob, which I love. Except during the nights, it seems he want to be constantly attached. We co sleep which works well but often I dont sleep well because he wakes so often and now he is a wiggle worm and kicks and hits me all night. I was just wondering if anyone else out there has experienced this and what you did, if anything. With my daughter I was told to use Babywise techniques and because she was my first, I didnt know any better, so I dont know what to do next.
No announcement yet.
Nighttime Nursing...

Nighttime Nursing...Tags: None
I am not sure what the babywise technique is but this is what I did. I would nurse my son to sleep and then when he woke up my husband gave him a sippy cup of milk instead of me breastfeeding him. It took about 3 nights for him to stop asking to nurse and I wont lie to you. They were three nights of hell. he cried and cried, the first night probably on and off all night, the second night probably every hour for about 10 minutes each time and the third night maybe once or twice for 5 minutes or so. We hated to hear him cry but we never left him and either me or mu husband held him so he was comforted, just not comforted by the boob the way he wanted. he was older though, about 18 months old.
We cosleep, but our 9 month old has a little play yard next to our bed. Some nights my hubby swaddles him after his bath, I nurse him to sleep in our bed around 10:30p.m. then my husband transfers him into the play yard. With the swaddle, he sleeps about half the night. He wakes up between 3:30 and 4:30a.m. and then I unswaddle him and bring him into bed with us. He nurses off and on until 8a.m. If we don't swaddle him and transfer him into the play yard, he sleeps with with us and nurses ALL night. I do have to say that if you try the swaddle, make sure it's a breathable fabric (like muslin) and that you remain in the same room in case he wakes and tries to roll and make sure there is no where for him to roll where his face could get smooshed into a corner or a pillow. We don't use this technique every night, just nights when we are feeling like we need to recharge our personal bubbles or need to reconnect as a couple.

Love at first sight!
"I loved this wedges since the moment I order them, I love the way the look and feel very comfy (the only thing is that my pinky toe is not cover by the strap, not a big deal but you need to break them in). The material is good quality and they are not heavy so easy to walk in. I love wearing them with jeans, shorts or dresses! #springishere"

Pretty but not for me...
"Bought them in neon pink. They looked gorgeous but the pink was just too bright for me. I could also tell the straps would be problematic or uncomfortable in the long run because they are hard material. Maybe in my next life I'll wear these. But for now, I'll return them."

Let down
"I ordered these in the white/tan combo and was so looking forward to getting them. My excitement quickly turned to disappointment after opening the box. While they were cute, one of the shoes had blobs of dried glue in random places making the shoe look dirty. Also, because they don't lace all the way to the top, I found them to be very loose and floppy at my ankles. Maybe I have skinny ankles, but it would've been nice had they laced all the way to the top. Sadly, I returned them, and am on the hunt for another wedge sneaker."

Introductioncactus, any plant of the family Cactaceae, a large group of succulents found almost entirely in the New World. A cactus plant is conspicuous for its fleshy green stem, which performs the functions of leaves (commonly insignificant or absent), and for the spines (not always present) of various colors, shapes, and arrangements. Cactus flowers are notably delicate in appearance although usually large and showy; they are commonly yellow, white, or shades of red and purple. Many species are pollinated by bats. Cactus fruits are berries and are usually edible. A cactus plant appears on the coat of arms of Mexico, and the blossom of the giant cactus, or saguaro ( Cereus giganteus ), is the state flower of Arizona.
The plants vary from small, round globes to epiphytes, vines, and large treelike forms. The reduced leaf surface, the enlarged fleshy stem, which is well fitted to store water and to retain it, and the ramified and extensive root system (much reduced in cultivated cacti) make the plant particularly adapted to regions of high temperature and long dry periods. Cacti are not restricted to desert regions, however, for in America they range from the tropics into Canada.
Most cacti bloom in the spring for a very short period, sometimes for only a few hours. The blossoms are noticeably sensitive to light, and often different species blossom only at specific times of the day. One of the most famous of the cacti is the night-blooming cereus usually classified as Selenicereus or C. grandiflora (several other night-blooming cactus species bear the same common name). Its fragrant blossoms unfold at a visible rate after sunset and last only a single night. In many of its native habitats the flowering of this cactus is celebrated with festivals.

Glenna Amanda Cox Price, born Nov. 7, 1918 in Ferron to Arthur Ludene Cox and Theo Hitchcock Cox. Glenna was the second of six children, three boys and three girls. Her brothers are Merrill Cox of Provo, Donald V. Cox and Arthur Ludene (Art) Cox of Price. Her sisters are deceased. Glenna and Owen now have a large home on the West side of Orangeville.
Glenna married Owen Price Nov. 26, 1938, at Clawson in the home of A. Ludene Cox the Bishop of Clawson. They later went to the Salt Lake Temple to have their marriage sealed for time and all eternity Dec. 28, 1944.
This sealing ceremony took place shortly before Owen Price was taken into the Army to serve in Europe during World War II. He was in some of the most severe fighting in that area. Glenna lived with her parents while Owen was away to the war. This was a difficult time for Glenna a young wife and mother with two small children.
Glenna and Owen Price have four children. They are as follows, David Owen Price born in Price, July 18, 1939, Connie Ann Price Wickman born Dec. 11, 1941, Glenna Patricia Huntington, born June 17, 1946 and Kathy Elaine Ockey born Feb. 6, 1949.
Living with Owen Price who was a construction worker caused them to move many times. They lived in Ogden, Orem, Sunnyside, and Clawson to name a few. In the beginning they lived in a small one room, rented camp trailer near an orchard, while Owen worked at building Hill Air Force Defense Depot near Ogden. She remembers the wind blew most of the time. That is until the owner came and hauled away the trailer without notifying Owen or his wife. They then lived in the back of a pickup truck until better accommodations were found. They lived in a small house in Sunnyside. Glenna purchased a home in Clawson for $300 and Owen was working at Sunnyside driving to and from work each day. They lived in that home 38 years.
Owen was away from home working 16 hour days in Utah, Idaho, and Wyoming on construction jobs, which meant Glenna was home raising the children. She on occasion would go visit Owen at these construction sites.
In 1955 when Glenna and Owen started the Owen D. Price Construction Company, Glenna was the record keeper. When Owen and his brother owned a Uranium Mine she assisted by keeping the books. Glenna has been a strength and support of Owen in all that he has done over the years. Glenna has always been a very thoughtful caring wife, mother, and grandmother.
She held many positions in the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, such as primary president, relief society counselor and teacher. The position that she enjoyed the most was ward organist. Several members commented that she played the organ beautifully. She was privileged to take organ lessons from Robert Cundick when he was serving as Mormon Tabernacle Choir organist.
Glenna enjoys keeping up her home and garden. Over the years Glenna entertained many people in their home. Unfortunately Glenna's health has declined and she is now being cared for by her husband and the Ferron Health Care facility.

Honda-powered IndyCar racer Simon Pagenaud, winner of Sunday's IZOD IndyCar Series race in Detroit, will make his "Race to the Clouds" debut later this month, driving a highly-modified Honda Odyssey as part of Honda's record-setting 11-vehicle, nine-class effort at the 2013 Pikes Peak International Hill Climb.
With support from Honda's North American motorsports and R&D companies – Honda Performance Development and Honda R&D Americas, Inc. – the company will campaign a broad range of Honda and Acura vehicles, motorcycles and ATVs. Pagenaud will pilot a turbocharged, 500+ horsepower Honda Odyssey, originally developed for competition by associates at Honda Manufacturing of Alabama.
"This is something I'm really looking forward to," Pagenaud said of Pikes Peak. "I've done a little bit of rallying in France, and I used to watch highlights of the Pikes Peak race on television as a kid. Our entry will be unique, to say the least! A Honda Odyssey with power similar to an IndyCar will raise some eyebrows for sure! But with the preparation it is getting from Team Honda Research, it will be a proper race car, and I'm very excited about it."
Modifications to the Odyssey include a turbocharged, intercooled 3.5-liter V6 engine; six-speed transmission and limited-slip differential from the Acura TL product line; racing suspension and brakes, including 19-inch BBS wheels equipped with Michelin Pilot Sport PS2 tires; and a full competition roll cage.
The 2012 IZOD IndyCar Series Rookie of the Year, Pagenaud started sixth in Sunday's Indy Dual at Detroit and dominated the second half of the 70-lap contest, taking the checkers more than five seconds clear of the field for his first IndyCar Series victory. The win also moved the 29-year-old Frenchman to fifth in the drivers' championship standings after seven of 19 races.
Pagenaud and his Odyssey will be entered in the "Exhibition" category, as will a Honda CR-Z hybrid sports coupe, driven by Sage Marie from Honda North America, as Honda showcases a diverse range of "fun to drive/ride" products in both car and motorcycle classes. Other than Pagenaud, the entries will be piloted by Honda associates under the Honda Performance Development (HPD) and Team Honda Research (THR) banners.
American Honda Motor Co., Inc. will serve as Partnering Sponsor of the 2013 Pikes Peak International Hill Climb, the first time the company has participated as a corporate sponsor of this historic event, which celebrates its 91st running on June 30. In addition, Honda Power Equipment will be supporting race operations, with Honda generators providing electricity and light to the pits and staging area.
Honda has competed in the Pikes Peak International Hill Climb on a less ambitious scale in the recent past. In 2011, Honda campaigned a Fit hatchback that was built and piloted by Honda engineers from North America.
In 2012, the company fielded an Acura NSX powered by an ALMS P2 twin-turbo V6 engine supplied by Honda Performance Development (HPD), and outfitted with an ex-Le Mans body and wide body kit, with support from members of the Ohio-based Honda of America Race Team (HART).
In prior years, Honda set records in the EV class in 1994 and 1999 with the Honda EV Plus. This year also marks the return of advanced Honda EV technology to America's second-oldest race, in the form of a 2012 Honda Fit EV.

I really wanted to implement the NG medal system, but it just didn't happen, sorry.
Finally! The game itself has been ready for a few months and now it's finally out! It bears a very close resemblance to my 2 last projects: Attack of the Ubermothers, but mostly Madness Deathwish 2. If you've played Madness Deathwish 2, then you'll be pleased with the amounts of references and especially the ending is going to make you feel good on the inside.
I like to think that this is going to be the final Death Wish (even though I just learned how to spell the title correctly), but it's just so much damn fun to make. All except for the drawing/graphic part. I enjoy drawing small things, but scale it up and I lose interest pretty fast. The project was mostly kept on hold, due to my lack of interest in drawing.
If the game pulls you in for more than 10 minutes (took me over an hour to speed-run the damn thing!), then for the love of gaming, tell me what to improve on ^^

Disclaimer: Danielle Staub did not actually write this post. But, as avid fans of the show, we figured we might have a little insight into her own take on the show. The views expressed here are not those of Crushable, but rather are simply an imagining of what Danielle might have to say.
The ladies didn't disappoint on the second episode of this season's Real Housewives of New Jersey. It's Halloween time in Jersey, and now there's an excuse for the housewives to break out the barrels of makeup and hairspray they have. It's also time for the Posche Fashion Show. The ladies knew they had to top last year's "unbeweaveable" time, and they did just that. But don't take my word for it. Check out what ex-housewife Danielle Staub had to say about this week's episode.

It has been possible to install SystemRescueCd on a USB stick for a long time. There are several reasons for doing that:
- You can boot SystemRescueCd on a computer which has no CD/DVD drive
- It's easy to fit a USB stick in your pocket to have it with you all the times
- You can write your own files on the USB stick at any time
- You can create a backstore to preserve your modifications
Unfortunately the installation was not always easy, especially if you want to install it from Windows or if you have old versions of the utilities required for the installation. You either had to boot on the CDRom edition to run an automatic installation program (sysresccd-usbstick) or you had to follow manual instructions if you did not want to burn the ISO image on a media.
SystemRescueCd-1.5.5 comes with new installers for Linux and Windows that make it easy to install SystemRescueCd on a removable device. In other words it will be possible to just download the ISO image and run the installer. They come with up to date copies of the programs required during the installation so that it works even on system where recent versions of these tools are not installed.
If you are running Linux on your computer, you just have to execute the script called "usb_inst.sh" which is stored at the root of the cdrom ISO image. So can simply mount the iso image using "mount -o loop systemrescuecd-x86-x.y.z.iso /mnt/cdrom" (where /mnt/cdrom can be replaced with any empty directory of your system where you want to mount the cdrom image) and then you run "usb_inst.sh" from the mount directory. This script is a modified version of "sysresccd-usbstick" so it can be used with the same options on the command line. By default it runs in the semi-graphical mode where you just have to select the removable device you want to use.
If you are using Windows you will have to download the cdrom ISO image and the installation program. And then you just have to execute the installer and select the ISO image and the USB device you want to use for the installation. The installer can be executed directly from the download directory, there is no need to install files on your hard-disk. This installer has been developed to use the Win32 API directly to produce a very compact program that does not require any external library to run. You have to run the installer as administrator, it's required to install the bootloader on the removable device. If you run it as a normal user you may have to type an administrator login/password in a dialog box at the end of the installation.
For more details please read the official documentation about installing SystemRescueCd on a USB stick.

University of Illinois Golf Course
Our 36 Hole Championship Orange & Blue Golf Courses were built in the 1950's and 1960's. The Orange Course was built first in 1950 and followed by the Blue Course in 1966. Both courses are very exciting to play and present many challenges including sand, water, trees, and green undulations.
Built in 1999, Stone Creek Golf Club features one of the most enjoyable and challenging 18-hole public championship golf courses in down state Illinois. The beautifully manicured bent grass fairways, soft smooth slopes and subtle elevation changes make Stone Creek a true golfer's experience.
Sylvia's Irish Inn is one of Urbana's finest examples of the Queen Anne style of Victorian architecture. It was designed by Rudolph Zachariah Gill, an 1887 graduate of the University of Illinois in architecture and engineering, and was built in 1895 for Dr. Austin Lindley, a prominent physician and surgeon for the Big Four Railroad in Urbana.
Bob and Rita Gold Welcome you to a home that R.G. and Isabelle Herriott Rayburn built and moved into from a nearby log cabin in 1874. It remained in the same family for more than 100 years. The Gold's have maintained the charm and originality of this classic 9-room farm house, while updating it for modern living. It is tastefully furnished with antique country furniture the Gold's have collected over the past 25 years, and features Early American stenciling on the walls.

The expansive wrap around porch and wicker furniture provide a perfect place to sit and enjoy the gardens. Through the front door you will be greeted by your innkeeper, Kevin Allen, and our two adorable doggy mascots, Dasher and Princess. Running the Inn is our full time passion, so we will be available to provide area information, restaurant reservations, or in the case of the doggies, make themselves available for scratches and love. On the main level you'll find the living room, library, dining room and kitchen. The furnishings were selected with your comfort in mind, and hopefully you'll have some time to enjoy the first floor. There is a 55 inch flat screen smart TV in the living room and lots of soft seating. The Library has books and games, as well as a computer station/wireless printer. The dining room was designed with separate seating so you can choose to socialize or be by yourself while having your morning coffee. The dining room is also a great place to spread out your projects and work while you're here.

Leaked documents coming out of Trans-Pacific Partnership negotiations need greater public exposure before it is too late. Over the past two years, the United States has been meeting behind closed doors with eight Pacific nations, drafting an agreement designed to exempt multinational corporations from legal recourse if they violate domestic laws. If the leaks are anything at all representative of Trans-Pac's final outcome, this agreement will set a dangerous precedent for government abdication of national interests to global corporatism.
We know that 'hard to explain' stories are sometimes ignored by mainstream media, but this could be a major game changer for the future of democratic self-governance, Rule of Law, and the ability of US citizens and political representatives to protect our national sovereignty. If you're not getting more information on this story from sources you trust, you must demand a thorough investigation into how this dangerous trade agreement will limit our ability to hold foreign corporations accountable for activities on U.S. soil.

As anyone who visits our boards knows, the Star Wars Galaxies community has been vocally speaking out against the NGE and other changes to that game over the last year. Kevin Tierney jumps in to examine the alienation of that community in this editorial.
| There probably has been no MMORPG that has caused more controversy than Sony Online Entertainments (SOE) Star Wars Galaxies. Its core game has been fundamentally altered twice, and debate has still been very intense, even six months after the latest revision, the New Game Enhancements. (NGE) While one can look for varying reasons as to why such changes were made, one is obvious: people, from LucasArts representatives Nancy Macintyre and Julio Torres, to numerous developers, all the way to the head of SOE John Smedley himself have argued that the changes were necessary to truly attract a crowd worthy of Star Wars. I believe this approach is flawed for numerous reasons.
One problem the MMO market is that it is currently experiencing what I call The WoW effect. When World of Warcraft was released to stunning success, it redefined what a successful MMO was. Before this, 500,000 customers of an MMO was a very respectable number. Right before the first changes (i.e. Combat Upgrade) SWG reportedly floated at around 300-350,000, again quite respectable pre-WoW. The release of WoW caused SOE/LucasArts to radically alter the originally planned rebalance to an upgrade that not only incorporated many of Blizzards features, but also added a ton of bugs to boot. SWG was simply not compatible with a linear style WoW gameplay. Those who wanted WoWs features were already playing WoW, without the bugs. While the CU had overall mixed results, one thing was clear, subscriptions were down.

If SOE/LA will just give us classic server the devs can play NGE by them self.
URU lives! Mystralia date set for July 29/30 http://www.mystralia.com for details.
I beta tested this game and played it for 6-9 months after release. This article is right (though there were other major problems).
Never in my life have I experienced such arrogance as with SOE and SWG. To say they wouldn't listen is like saying the ocean is wet, or that outer space is big. You just can't do justice to the magnitude of the concept with words.
SOE is saying things NOW that were told to them in beta by many people, including me. Only back then, they not only didn't listen, they locked your threads as being "unconstructive."
According to SOE, no matter what people express on message boards, there is always this "silent majority" of players who love everything they do. That's like saying if there is some axal breaking pothole on the highway, and a handful of concerned citizens call into complain, everyone else LOVED THE POTHOLE.
EQ1, EQ2, SWG, SWTOR, GW, GW2 CoH, CoV, FFXI, WoW, CO, War,TSW and a slew of free trials and beta tests
They thought that we are not serious about leaving the game, when we

This is real simple.
They have lost more players then they have kept.
The gamble was that they could get more players back with the changes then they would lose players. They figured if people were going to pay for the game in the state it was, they would pay for it in any state.
The gamble isn't paying off. I highly doubt that SWG lasts much more then a year at this rate.

"In faith there is enough light for those who want to believe and enough shadows to blind those who don''t." -Blaise Pascal
Very well written and some great points as well.
Though not all bad, it did have some positive affects as well.
There are universities that offer gaming development as a course line as well as business ethics classes a case study for dos and don't do's for years.
It offered other deveolpers a classic what not to do in their release of their up coming projects
Side efffects that were un intended is that players that left in discust had a cross over soe hate for other soe titles and possible hands on of soe example; vanguard out rage when it was announced soe would be background publishers
Those that left also had a hard time finding a replacement game and in some cases left the mmorpg genra' completely ( or at least untill other then clone style game play was offered ) .
It allowed players to see early in beta if a project would ever be worth while of their time, and commitment.
example ; irth , dark & light
Also a poster boy on game fourms in different games , as a warning to developers of other games what happens to your community if you follow in soe foot steps of ignoring your player base
its a shame that the drive for more customer drove everyone involved (vets) away and killed what could have been what wow was had only they thought about the game rather than the cash we would not be having this conversation today
nice story and well wrote thanks MMORPG.com
Tin Foil hats dont work.. its all a conspiracy
Very well said.
I don't know why nearly everyone but the SOE brass can see and understand that the CU2 was a bad idea (over the planned rebalance) and that the NGE was a disaster, and that the best way to fix the hate is to give the people (CUSTOMERS) what they want.
I played from beta through the first two years but when the CU2 came out, the addition of levels to my beloved SWG was the deal-breaker for me. Right now I'm not playing any MMORPG because nothing appeals to me enough to spend the money and time on. And I'm certainly never giving SOE my money for any other game again after what they've done to SWG and their customers in these last years.
And yet, if they were to bring back pre-CU and give us the orginally planned rebalance, I have to admit that I'd be back in the game in a heartbeat. With bells on.
*sigh* When will SOE ever learn? My fear? Never.
Yeh... the arrogance drove me away eventually too. I left initally because of that... stuck my head back in for the CU... left... Then again for the NGE... and left for the last time... Theres only so much a person can take... only so many times you can get slapped in the face, before you decide the relationship isn't worth it...

On Tuesday Nov. 1, a meeting was held in Ferron City Hall for the purpose of forming a Tea Party organization in Emery County. This group is not affiliated with any other Tea Party organization and is not a political third party. The name "Tea Party" is a reference to the Boston Tea Party.
Jerry Stotler of Ferron and Karl Jackman of Orangeville led the discussion. The first topics discussed were is there enough interest in Emery County to start a Tea Party? If a Tea Party is formed, what do we want to accomplish with this organization. Some in the group wanted to reduce government spending, opposed taxation in varying degrees, reduce the national debt and federal budget deficit, and adhere to an originalist interpretation of the United States Constitution. One wanted to stop sending money to foreign governments. Others wanted to take actions that would influence the political process at the state and local level.
Jackman listed on the board things the organization should have. Number one, honesty and integrity, trust and trustworthiness. Number two, individual freedom and responsibility. Number three, the rule of law by consent of the governed. Number four a belief in and reliance on a supreme being. Number five, to take action that will have a positive effect on the political process at the state and local level. Number six, we shall not be wackos. Number seven, the purpose of law is not to prevent crime, but to provide legal consequences for the crime.
There appeared to be enough interest among those in attendance that another Tea Party meeting will be held on Nov. 15 at 8 p.m. in Ferron City Hall.
Anyone interested is invited to attend. To find out more about this Tea Party contact Stotler at email@example.com.

Skip to comments.Obama eligibility attorney charges case rife with fraud
Posted on 01/08/2010 7:01:46 PM PST by Man50D
An attorney who has been involved in several high-profile cases alleging that Barack Obama isn't qualified to be president because he is not a "natural born citizen" as demanded by the Constitution now is asking a California judge in investigate possible fraud against the court.
Orly Taitz, who has, among other cases, one pending at the 11th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals on behalf of a member of the military wondering whether orders from Obama as commander-in-chief are valid, said the possibility of fraud is one of several concerns in the case.
"There is such a high probability of criminal acts of identity theft and Social Security fraud committed by the respondent that the undersigned requests this honorable court to use its inherent powers to order Sua Sponte an evidentiary hearing on this particular issue for possible criminal prosecution," she wrote in her latest arguments that also request the case be moved to Washington, D.C.
She noted the respondent, Obama, "has submitted himself to the jurisdiction of this honorable court and can be brought to a separate evidentiary hearing to ascertain if fraud was perpetrated upon the court by assertion of false identity, even if the underlying case is not heard or closed for one reason or another."

She will still be enjoying the millions she will have made on this case and as a lawyer, she will move on. Lawyers have that ability to just move on.
Well, at least she's trying to do something; and I'll give her this: there's a _LOT_ about Obama that just doesn't 'smell right.' Certainly some of that is due the opaqueness and 'closedness' of his records; I myself have had to produce more records for review for enlistment then it seems he has had to obtain the presidency (and my reviewers can be easily tracked with my old enlistment contract) whereas those certifying Obama merely say "he's certified" and don't put their money where their mouth is, so to speak, and sign their names to that.
IOW, it's like the rail-union rep in Atlas Shrugged who tries to get a stranglehold over both Ms Taggart & her employees by forbidding any of them to operate on her newly-constructed John Galt line. {When she offers to draw up a contract binding the union to NEVER operating on the line he backs down.} We have the same thing: everyone says "oh he's qualified" about Obama, but it seems that nobody's willing to sign [in blood] on the dotted line.
Only took five minutes for the obamanoid infestation to show up ... I've lost my taste for popcorn due to the stench rising.
Any dead fish can float downstream. Dr. Taitz (using her own money and donations) is very courageous to pursue the truth against the DOJ (using taxpayer money) and the Democrats who qualified Obama even though they knew he was not eligible. Why do you think he refuses to release all his records and pays $2 mil to keep them that way?
The judges are all too scared to fight the Government which is now owned by tyrants who hide in secret rooms to turn America into the United Socialist States of Amerikka. See PierreLegrand.net and watch Larry Grathwohl who infiltrated the Weather Underground and tells their plans for us. See the Obama Timeline at Colony14.net and references. The truth will come out. I hope it will not be too late.
I am willing to bet all the money that the shyster birther lawyers have swindled out of good, honest, law-abiding citizens.
I just checked your prior posts.
They are almost all defending Obama not showing his birth certificate.
You must be a troll assigned to challenge others.
Have you thought about how to help Orly as opposed to calling her a silly woman?
What planet are you from pal?
Real world: Taitz is zero and all on every unhinged effort she's made.
This isn't going to change.
That's reality.
How's she going to manage that? Especially with the 20K fine hanging over her head.
Wait! I get it... The underpants gnome method.
1) File irrational lawsuits and get slapped with fines.
2) ?
3) Profit!
Trying to do something and achieving entirely counterproductive results isn't something to be admired or encouraged.
Dang, and I've even tried a new soap...
What has Taitz actually managed to accomplish?
The help Orly needs is chiefly psychiatric.
And I'm from Earth.
I come in peace.
I wonder if Orly's new associate helped her come up with this. Not being a lawyer I have no idea whether Judge Carter even has any plenary power to reopen this case, which seems to have been closed with prejudice, pending appeal.
I make sarcastic comments on other topics too you know...
Just put her name in your metal rolodex and watch what happens.
She is right but ridiculed.
I pray that God will raise up good and capable men and women with the talent and resources to expose Obama and his minions. May He also confound, confuse,befuddle, and blind Obama's men and lawyers so that they make many mistakes.
Its about 10 defending Obama to one other post.
Its obvious your postings are for the purpose of defending Zero.
Once in a while something else catches your eye.
It is clear you are a Zero Troll.
Tell you what, I'll go on record about what is going to happen.
1) This latest filing will go nowhere.
2) Taitz's future filings on this matter will go nowhere.
3) Taitz will be fined again before the year is out.
4) Taitz will be sentenced to jail time for failure to pay the fine(s).
5) Disbarment before the end of 2011.
Now, maybe I am right. Maybe I am wrong. But given her track record, this is certainly the way to bet.
Why stop there...she's
Here's something for you to consider.
Advocating rational behavior, critical thinking and rule of law does not equate to support of any particular politician.
Nor does the failure to join the reflexive hate and denouncement of someone infer support of them.
And making fun of silly people doesn't mean you are a grand admirer of the silly person's target of hostility.
Think about that.
Something for you to think about....why do you and others who disagree with this subject come on these threads? Do you believe that you will change anyone's mind? You won't. I don't understand posters propensity to haunt these threads when they disagree.
I want to add two final predictions to that list.
6) When the entirely predictable comes to pass (items 1-5) there will be 'birthers' loudly decrying each step as further evidence that the judiciary is thoroughly corrupted and under BHO's thumb.
7) When the next Republican is elected (in 2012, Lord willing) and the denizens of DU try these same stunts, some of the very same people who call themselves 'birthers' and agitate most loudly here will immediately reverse their positions regarding the role of the judiciary, rules of evidence, court procedures, the results of elections and the Executive branch.
I know full well that I won't change the minds of many, if any at all.
The hardcore birthers believe as they do because their views fulfill an emotional need. You cannot effectively through argument change the mind of a person who hold a view for emotional reasons. They have to work through it in their own time, if they ever do so.
Nevertheless, there are always individuals encountering this issue or aspects of it for the first time. And I do not wish to leave FreeRepublic to be an echo chamber of birther silliness.
That and silliness deserves to be mocked. At least a little bit.
Your soap selection? ... you chose poorly.
Um, the owner of this site also thinks that there is a problem with Obamas eligibility. I was on a thread with him when he zotted someone for challenging his opinion.
Then I disagree with him on that matter.
JR doesn't ban people for simple disagreements.
If he zotted (that word really should be in the spellchecker) someone, I am sure he had a much better reason than them spouting a contrary opinion.
Dr. Taitz is keeping the heat on Obama, Pelosi, Leahy, McCaskill, etc. to prove he is eligible, and the possibility exists that the publicity will cause a whistleblower to have the courage to expose him. Several judges now are aware of Obama's many social security numbers and that the one he uses now belongs to someone else. These numbers/aliases may be related to fraud, Rezko and the fact that a judge in Chicago revoked Michelle's law license.
When Obama filed for his lawyer's license he committed a felony by not putting down AKA Barry Soetoro. Orly is giving ulcers to the DOJ lawyers trying to stop investigations. They're scared, too.
Are you aware that no alumni of Columbia remember him? Did you know Bill Ayers wrote parts of Obama's books? Have you read Newsmax.com by Ken Timmerman "Obama had close ties to Top Saudi Adviser at Early Age" Sep. 3, 2008? Read it. They got him into Harvard.
Ah-ha! I misread the packaging.
It was actually soup.
That explains a lot.
Now maybe the cats will stop licking me so much.
Not usually. He's a very reasonable man.
I am sure he had a much better reason than them spouting a contrary opinion.
Not really. This poster kept insisting that the subject was foolish and he'd had enough. They were a 97 or 98 signup so I was surprised.
I believe there was a recent thread he posted where he said he wouldn't put up with RINO defenders on FR either. I was glad to see that.
He worked for Clinton in Arkansas and had a lot of first hand information on the dirty dealings the Clintons were involved in.
I used to listen to radio interviews of the guy all during the Clinton years and he was always a week or ten days from some sort of indictment, or some new charges that would bring down the administration. The longer it went on, the nuttier the guy became.
And I'm sure you remember Juanita Broderick. A major network let her tell her very credible story of how Bill Clinton raped her. And I remember several congressmen being horrified by what they read in the Starr report.
He was impeached, and even with a Republican majority in the house and senate, the senate didn't want anything to do with it. Not enough Republicans voted to have him removed, so he remained in office.
Now with a large Democratic majority in both houses, do you honestly believe that this senseless pursuit has a prayer of success?
I'm not so sure about #4...
Guess Jim is too bothered by the dollars and health problems to ban this libtard.
Best wishes Jim.
It is very apparent that you are a cheerleader for Zero.
I wonder what social security number Obama used while he worked at Baskin Robbin's ice cream shop in Hawaii? Was it the one from Connecticut?
We don't know his schools, much less his grades.
Reportedly he is "brilliant". OK, what's his IQ.
Can we trace his life; where he grew up. Like all Presidents, isn't their family house an heirloom, like
the "log cabin". Can't we have a timeline of his life.
Of course, part of the problem, is that "natural born"
has not been rigorously, legally defined—or has it?
Yes, a prayer may be all this "senseless pursuit" (as you call it) needs. Why not try it? Plus, he has signed an EO to release classified info, see blogger atlas shrugs report at FR, 1/9/10 at 4:59 PM by sushiman. It might do him in. Plus, one more terror attack might do it. Putting INTERPOL above the Constitution could be another nail in his coffin.
A natural disaster he can't fund would hurt him, and a 6.5 earthquake just hit 250 miles N of San Francisco. Don't despair. He is a fraud and will be found out.
...in the name of the United States of America are requesting this Honorable Court to issue a writ of Quo Warranto against a respondent Barack Hussein Obama and order an evidentiary hearing whether fraud upon the court was committed and whether criminal charges should be brought against the respondent for fraud, identity theft and social security fraud.
using Orly's Connecticut social security number for Obama, freeper supremedoctrine was able to pull up a registered draft registration number under Obama. (Post # 111)

Forest Service Engineer, Former Student Intern, Triumphs Over Early Life Hardships
"It's a pleasure to get up in the morning and go to work," said Toniette "Toni" Addison, a civil engineer for the National Forests in Florida. "I spend the majority of my time designing recreation sites on some of the most beautiful and remote areas of our forests."
But things were not always so rosy for Addison. One of six children, she recalls a difficult life growing up as a young African-American girl in the projects of Fort Myers, Fla. Her single-parent mother frequently left Toni and her siblings at home alone to fend for themselves – at times for as long as two weeks. Read more »

Looking at the Canucks' Back-Up Goalie Situation
Blake Murphy
July 02 2013 12:55PM
The Vancouver Canucks traded goaltender Cory Schneider to the New Jersey Devils at the NHL Draft on Sunday. This was a major move for the franchise, solving what had been a dynamic three-year dilemma between the pipes as Schneider battled with Roberto Luongo for the starting position.
With Schneider gone and Luongo hopefully on board with remaining with the team (not that he has many sane ways around it), the Canucks now face the much smaller issue of finding a back-up goaltender for Luongo.
What a Back-Up Needs to Do
From 2010-11 to 2012-13, Schneider appeared in 88 games for the Canucks, totalling 4,938 minutes played. He played very well in those minutes (that's what caused the entire controversy to begin with), but the new back-up goaltender doesn't need to be anywhere near as good as Schneider's .927 career save percentage.
One reason is that the back-up will be expected to play much less than Schneider did. Luongo has shown an ability to handle an obscene workload in the past and, while he's now 34 and not as young as in his Florida Panthers days, it seems reasonable to expect him to handle a full starter's duties. After all, even as recently as 2009-10 he played in 68 games for 3,899 minutes.
In 2011-12 (the last full NHL season, since the lockout-shortened 2012-13 season likely altered the starter-reserve goalie paradigm), the median starting goaltender played 3,400 minutes and starters (the top minute-getter on a team) ranged fromroughly 2,300 to 4,250. If the Canucks assume even a pessimistic 3,400 minutes for Luongo (he averaged 3,777 from 2001-02 to 2011-12), the Canucks' back-up only needs to hold his own for 1,520 minutes.
It is probably more realistic to pencil Luongo in for a heavier workload, perhaps 3,750 minutes, given his contract, his previous workload and coach John Tortorella's penchant for playing his top goalie big minutes (Henrik Lundqvist averaged 4,089 minutes per season from 2006-07 to 2011-12).
So the Canucks need a back-up capable of filling in for about 1,200 minutes.
What to Expect from a Back-Up
It's going to be a bit of an adjustment for Canucks fans to have a back-up goalie who isn't a starter-quality netminder like Schneider was (or as Luongo was, depending on how you want to frame it). While Luongo and Schneider are both very good, expecting the goaltending duo to be as strong next year would be unfair.
|2010-11 to 2012-13
|Top-30 Avg
|Next-30 Avg
|Avg Pair*
|Lou+Avg Back-Up*
|*Weighted by time, not shots
Thanks to Luongo's strong performance, pairing him with an average back-up would still give the Canucks an above-average goaltending situation overall (I guess now is a good time to note that these are full save percentages, not even strength – a team's penalty kill and variance can play a part in overall save percentage, but these numbers still give you an idea of what the Canucks are looking at.) But the expected .913 is still lower than the .925 the team put up the past three years and would make for a difference of roughly 29 goals for the season. That's a significant margin for the team to make up on the offensive end or with stronger defensive play.
And this is also assuming the Canucks manage to find an average back-up, not just a replacement level fill-in who might be even worse.
How Much Can They Spend?
The Canucks are in a tight salary cap situation, one that makes a Keith Ballard buy-out almost a certainty, as Thomas Drance outlined on Monday. Vancouver has basically no cap space at present and may struggle to fill a 23-man roster without waiving Ballard. The situation is such that having a back-up goalie that makes anything more than the league minimum is a luxury that the team likely can't afford.
Last year, the 31st highest paid goalie (theoretically the top back up, though this isn't actually the case) made $1.7M, while the median back-up (45th highest paid) made $1.2M. 50 goalies made seven figures, so a minimum-salaried goalie is a rare thing, probably because it's so risky and because goalies develop later, making it difficult to play them on an entry level deal.
In-House Options
The Canucks have a few in-house options to fill the position. The most likely scenario is that Eddie Lack and Joacim Eriksson battle in training camp for the role, as both could be pencilled in on the active roster at less than $1M.
Lack is a 6' 5" 25-year old Swede who has been in the AHL for three years now. He posted strong save percentages in 2010-11 and 2011-12 (.926 and .925, respectively) but struggled over 13 games last year (.899). There's hope that his 2010-12 AHL numbers suggest a capable NHL back-up, and the Canucks gave him an odd two-year deal last season that made this year's portion a one-way contract at $850,000. That's certainly a vote of confidence, or was at the time.
Eriksson, meanwhile, was just signed out of Sweden in June and was touted as the best European goalie available. At age 23, he posted a .932 save percentage in 30 SEL games, following up a .932 season. Those numbers speak to his obvious potential. But he's on a two-way contract, which puts him at a slight disadvantage – it would save the team money to have him in the AHL and his NHL salary is higher than Lack's at $925,000. If that difference seems small, it is in real dollars, but it's potentially roster-altering given how close Vancouver is expected to be to the cap. The Canucks may also want him to work in the confines of the AHL for a season to get acclimated.
Who's On the Market?
Signing a free agent goaltender is almost definitely not going to happen. The Canucks have far more pressing needs and little discretionary money to throw around. Luongo can handle a full work load and they have a pair of exciting goaltending prospects who, between the two of them, could be able to fill the back-up role.
With that said, here are the available names, via CapGeek. I'm not sure you could ever get me to agree, but if you can make a case for spending $1M and change on one of these names instead of giving one of the younger kids a shot, go ahead in the comments.
What's the Call?
As was mentioned, Lack has a one-way contract this year at a slightly smaller cap hit than Eriksson. This likely gives him the inside track on the back-up position. With Luongo's ability to handle a large workload in the past, the team may feel comfortable assuming he'll still be able to do so at age 34. Mike Gillis may choose to be risk-averse and find a veteran back-up in the event Luongo wears down, but spending money there takes money away from another position. It also would have made sense for the Canucks to ask for Johan Hedberg back in the Schneider trade if they wanted a reasonably priced veteran back-up.
Lack's AHL numbers are very close to those of Ben Scrivens in 2010-11 and 2011-12, and Scrivens emerged as a capable back-up for the Leafs last year (.915 in 20 games, .902 in 12 games in 2011-12), enough so that the Kings are comfortable with him backing up Jonathan Quick. If Lack could provide that same .910-range in his 20 or so games, the Canucks would tap-dance. Ben Bishop is another goalie who had similar, albeit marginally better, AHL numbers in 2011-12 and 2012-13 and performed capably as a back-up at times. Braden Holtby is another comparable based on AHL save percentage.
That's not to say Lack can be any of those guys. He struggled last year and lost almost a full season of development time due to injury. But the Canucks don't need another Cory Schneider, they just need a cheap and semi-reliable back-up. Lack could be that at an affordable price, making him the early favourite for the role.
"Thanks to Luongo's strong performance, pairing him with an average back-up would still give the Canucks an above-average goaltending situation overall."
The lockout and Luongo's usage over the past three years might screw up projections a bit.
But there is no reason to expect him to be .922 next year.
In baseball, for example, a popular method is weighting the past season's performance at 50%, two seasons ago at 30% and three seasons ago at 20% to predict the next season's performance.
Lou's save percentage has been trending down for 3 years fwiw. He's also 34 and hasn't had a heavy workload in a while.
While I think there is a good chance Lou gets back around his .919 career average, I'd take the under slightly.
@Blake Murphy
Thanks for the article.
The last pre-Schneider season was also in an Olympic year.
While we'll never know for sure, fatigue was one possible explainer for Lou's post Olympic decline that season.
It'll be interesting to monitor the backup goalie competition and how many minutes he eats up during the regular season.
I am not as sophisticated as you guys with your fancy stats. But, I would expect the Canucks to be better defensively under the heavy hand of Torts.
A goalie's performance is predicated a lot by the team (defensive system)playing in front of him.
I don't know about you guys, but I have faith in Torts, which means that that there is a good chance that Lu looks really good next year.
Well, who ever Luo's back up is, he better not play well...otherwise, HE'LL GET TRADED.... AND LUONGO WILL STAY TILL GRANDMA COMES BACK FROM THE DEAD.
Looking forward to one thing next year and I'm in a group bet as well. The bet...WHAT MONTH AND YEAR GILLIS WILL BE FIRED. THE PERSON CLOSEST TO THE DATE WINS THE WHOLE JACKPOT.
July 03 2013, 11:55AM
Wouldn't you say that Lack would be served best with another season of development - and more importantly lots of games after being injured all year - in the AHL rather than sitting as a back-up on the bench?
Same goes essentially for Eriksson but he at least played a full season last season. Still he would probably also benefit from playing regularly.
So perhaps the Canucks would be better of having Cannata as their back-up and have Lack and Eriksson alternate goalie duties in Uttica. The better of the 2 could then be called up later in the season to back-up Luongo in some games and play a few so they get some experience.

Many Veteran's programs were presented throughout Emery County for Memorial Day. The American Legions from Ferron, Huntington, Emery and Orangeville visited all the cemeteries in the county where a 21 gun salute was given as well as raising the flag to full staff by local boy scouts.
At the Elmo, Cleveland, Lawrence and Huntington cemeteries, Blake Jones accompanied by Eldon Holmes gave the recitation of the Ragged Old Flag.
Kody Holmes was the bugler at these cemeteries.
Many people in the county gathered at the cemeteries to observe Memorial Day. They visited the graves of loved ones to place flowers upon the graves. They gathered to observe the Veteran's programs. Each cemetery has
a flag pole and a Veteran's monument.
Memorial Day is observed to honor those heroes who have fallen victim in their service to America. These soldiers and proud Americans have sacrificed their lives in the protection of their country. They deserve the utmost respect and admiration from the citizens of the United States of America.
In Cleveland the city honored one of their Veterans who was the sexton for the Cleveland Cemetery for many years, Lamond Gardner. Lamond recently passed away and Mayor Chris Parkins presented the recognition to Sherma Gardner.
