ACLU of Washington Representing Same Sex Couple at Heart of Arlene's Flowers Controversy
The ACLU of Washington is representing the same sex couple at the heart of the Arlene's Flowers controversy, sending a letter to the owner of the shop Barronelle Stutzman, after she refused to sell flowers to one of the men for a same sex wedding, claiming that gay marriage was against her religious beliefs.
Below is an official release from the ACLU of Washington's website.
The ACLU of Washington is representing a gay couple in Richland in seeking remedies from a florist that discriminated against them. In a letter sent to the owner of Arlene's Flowers today, the ACLU said that the business' refusal to sell flowers to the couple violates the Washington Law Against Discrimination.
"We live in a diverse country, and when a business serves the general public, the business owner's religious beliefs may not be used to justify discrimination," said ACLU of Washington cooperating attorney Michael Scott, who is representing the couple.
"The refusal to sell flowers to the couple hurt them deeply. It is a disturbing reminder of the unequal treatment that gay men and women have experienced over the years," said ACLU-WA legal director Sarah Dunne.
Curt Freed, a faculty member at Columbia Basin College, and Robert Ingersoll, a manager at Goodwill, have been a couple for almost nine years. They are engaged and are planning a wedding for September 2013. Having purchased goods from Arlene's Flowers on many occasions, Ingersoll approached the florist on March 1 to arrange for flowers for the event. However, he was told that the business would not sell the couple wedding flowers because of the owner's religious beliefs.
The Washington Law Against Discrimination (RCW 49.60.030), which prohibits discrimination because of sexual orientation, bars businesses from refusing to sell goods, merchandise, and services to any person because of their sexual orientation. The courts have found that businesses open to the general public may not violate anti-discrimination laws, even on the basis of sincerely held religious beliefs.
The couple is seeking the following remedies:
That Arlene's Flowers agree not to refuse to provide flowers and other goods and services to any person on the basis of his or her sexual orientation.
That Arlene's Flowers agree to write a letter of apology to Mr. Freed and Mr. Ingersoll to be published in the Tri-City Herald.
That Arlene's Flowers agree to donate $5,000 to the Vista Youth Center in Kennewick, in lieu of payment of attorney's fees.
Representing Ingersoll and Freed for the ACLU of Washington are cooperating attorneys Michael Scott, Amit Ranade, and Jake Ewart of Hillis Clark Martin & Peterson P.S., ACLU-WA legal director Sarah Dunne, ACLU LGBT Rights Project attorney Elizabeth Gill.

Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) causes pain, swelling, and stiffness in your joints. Some people find that one way to relieve their joint pain is to make changes in their diet.
"There is no one food that helps everyone with rheumatoid arthritis," says Scott Zashin, MD, a rheumatologist at the Texas Health Presbyterian Hospital in Dallas and an author of Natural Arthritis Treatment. But some people find that eating foods that reduce inflammation can help ease their joint pain. You'll need to experiment to see what, if any foods, work for you, says Dr. Zashin.
A variety of studies have shown that the following foods may prove helpful:
- Coriander. This green, curly-leaved herb goes by different names — coriander, cilantro, Chinese parsley — and it's a staple in multiple cuisines, from Mexican to Thai. Some people say it also makes their rheumatoid arthritis better. Researchers at the All Institute of Medical Sciences in New Delhi believe that coriander can help relieve symptoms of RA. According to their study, published in the Indian Journal of Medical Research, two groups of rats with RA-like symptoms were injected with either steroids or a powder made from coriander seeds. After 21 days, both groups showed improvement, but the rats injected with coriander had significantly less swelling and inflammation than those injected with steroids.
- Turmeric. Turmeric is a deep mustard-yellow spice from Asia that's actually in the ginger root family and is used in many Indian curry dishes for color and taste. Turmeric contains curcumin, which has been shown to reduce inflammation at the cellular level. Researchers at the University of California looked at six human trials involving turmeric and concluded that it's a safe and effective anti-inflammatory. Mustard is a good source of turmeric and probably the easiest way to get it, Dr. Zashin says. He recommends having some mustard or curry at least two to three times a week.
- Ginger. Ginger has long been recognized for its ability to calm the stomach. Like turmeric, ginger also contains chemicals that work like anti-inflammatory medicines for RA. Researchers in Japan found that mice with arthritis-like symptoms improved when given an extract from dried red ginger. Caution: Ginger can cause blood to thin. So, if you're taking a blood-thinning medicine like Coumadin (warfarin), talk to your doctor before adding ginger to your RA treatment plan.
- Pineapple. "It's not the pineapple that's so exciting but the stem," Zashin says. That's because the stem contains bromelain, a digestive enzyme that has been shown to reduce inflammation in people with osteoarthritis and RA. Because the stem isn't edible, however, to get bromelain you have to take supplements in capsule or pill form. A study by researchers at University of Redding in the United Kingdom found that people who had mild knee pain for less than three months improved after a month of taking bromelain. The higher the dose, the greater the improvement. Zashin says that further studies are needed, and he cautions to "always talk to your doctor before using any supplement because dietary supplements can interact with prescription medications."
- Blackstrap molasses. Many people with RA swear by blackstrap molasses and have for years, but the scientific research is limited, says Zashin. One reason some suspect molasses may help relieve joint pain is that it's rich in vitamins and nutrients, including magnesium. A large study in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition found that people who had sufficient magnesium and potassium in their diets had stronger bones than those who didn't. Stronger bones mean less joint pain. Other good sources of magnesium are nuts, beans, whole grains, bananas, green vegetables, and dairy products.
- Green tea. A cup of green tea a day may keep the joint pain away. Researchers at the University of Maryland and Rutgers University found that rats with arthritis like symptoms improved significantly after green tea was added to their water for one to three weeks. Zashin notes that green tea has antioxidant properties, which are helpful in combating disease. However, green tea also contains small amounts of vitamin K, which can counteract blood thinners. That makes it important to talk to your doctor before adding it to your rheumatoid arthritis treatment regimen.
- Sour cherries. Zashin is a proponent of tart or sour cherries. Cherries are rich in antioxidants, which can protect your cells from the damaging effects of free radicals. These molecules, which are formed from natural body processes such as breaking down food as well as in response to environmental toxins such as tobacco smoke and radiation, can damage joints most affected by arthritis. A study by researchers at the University of Michigan found that a diet rich in cherries lowered inflammation in animals by 50 percent. Arthritis is an inflammatory condition, and reducing inflammation can reduce joint pain. Sour cherries also may lower levels of nitric oxide, a compound linked to RA, Zashin says.
- Fish oil. Found in wild salmon, herring, mackerel, sardines, anchovies, and trout, fish oil contains omega-3 fatty acids, which work to decrease inflammation and reduce symptoms of RA. A study of healthy adults at Ohio State University found that fish oil supplements reduced their anxiety and inflammation, factors that can lead to conditions such as RA, later on. Consider eating fatty fish like salmon twice a week or supplementing with fish oil capsules.
- Parsley. The ubiquitous garnish on restaurant entrees, parsley has been shown to have anti-inflammatory properties. A study reported in the Journal of Natural Remedies found that rats treated with an extract made from parsley leaves had reduced inflammation in their paws. Further studies of parsley and its effect on people are still needed, but the easy-to-grow herb is another anti-inflammatory food that just might help reduce joint pain and stiffness while it brightens up your salads.
Putting Together an Anti-Inflammatory Diet for RA
Paying more attention to the foods you eat — especially those that reduce inflammation and have lots of antioxidants — may ease your rheumatoid arthritis symptoms. Though research is limited and needs to be confirmed with larger scale, double-blind studies, most people can add these foods to their diet without any side effects. Still, if you're taking medications and want to add supplements or change your diet, talk to your doctor first to rule out any negative interactions with your rheumatoid arthritis treatment plan, says Dr. Zashin.

So So
Aggravate, Anger, and Piss off
So now we know the name of the great sage and that he got his god like powers as a result of a naughty princess who ate the once in a millenium, fobidden, devil fruit. It was very kind of Madara to give the readers such a detailed backstory of the juubi, So6P and the origin of chakra. Only thing that doesn't sit well with me is that at the start of the series we were told that chakra is something that comes from within, something that is moulded when somebody combines spiritual and physical energy together but now the origin of chakra is from the god tree via the ol' six paths sage. So did the great sage fist bump with millions of people over the course of his life so that they may have a a tiny piece of his chakra to pass on to the subsequent generations?
Well now, so Sarutobi wasn't dead, and The Juubi really is a tree.
Madara is still confidsent that he cancast the infinite Tsukuyomi, (and not Obito casting it), and we now know how the SO6P got his power.
At this point, I would gusess yjay Madara's trump Card is a Jutsu that Forcibly swaps Bodies with Juubito. After all, all of this was Madara's plan from the start, and he could have manipulated the Mazou tree to accept his chakra and his soul from the start.
BTW why is Naruto not using Sage Mode, I guess perhaps he can't without any chakra? But Can Ma and Pa Toad fuse with him, chakraless as he is?
I am not perfect and I defy you to prove otherwise
Growing Old Gracefully is an Oxymoron ... Mostly Moron !
It is an interesting thing many manga do, having outside sources of power be able to pass down genetically. What I'm interested in is the fact so many people now a day have chakra. I get the whole fact that a family tree can spread fast, but I have a feeling there may have been a genocide of people who couldn't use chakra some time in the past.
Aggravate, Anger, and Piss off
...now that is a bit strange and forceful. They didn't forgot about So6p, yet they forgot about his mother and the Tree of Life, which happened only one generation before So6p, it was literally his mother's time... sounds like bullsh*t. If stories about So6p were still told, then so should have ones about his mother and Tree also been told. It is obviously added without much of a thought... quite disappointing.
I think that it could have worked better, if Kishi did this the right way and showcased it in a bit different manner. Instead of power from the fruit, he should make it knowledge, the knowledge how to mix Chakra, which should give Kaguya power that no other human wielded, a knowledge that was then deepened by her son, the So6p, which resulted in him awakening a Human's potential (or something along those lines). That could have been the story, but no, we got this...
Ok Naruto and friends you have two choices here, choice A) destroy that tree or choice B) pull a Piccolo and destroy the moon. Hoping for option B, because I just want to see it, but option A is the way to go here. Just wondering how they are going to do it with the Shinju sucking up everyone's chakra.
If the SO6P was in her womb when she ate the Devl err! *cough, cough*, sorry Forbiden Fruit, then His body would have been nourished by the fruit also. Plus, whatever Chakras Momma developed would have irradiated the infant SO6P inside her body too. If you look at it this way, every cell in his body could have been mutated in-utero by the Sinju's Energy. He could end up being more adapted or tuned to the Juubi than his mother was. (Kishi better thank me for bailling him out .
On another note,
This chapter now ends the debate of whether the SO6P was an Uzumaki.....He Was Not.
The So6P must have developed a Jutsu after absorbing the Juubi, which Changed the whole world or suffused the planet with a form of the Juubi's energy that then allowed normal people to have Chakra. Also, because of his own Mutation while in the womb, his offspring (Senju, Uchiha, and Uzumaki) were able to be more similar to him than other tribes.
Reminder, to everyone, It's all about Sage Mode. Naruto's Kyuubi Chakra may be depleted, but if he can use all of Kyuubi's remaining Chakra for Sage Mode, he'll have plenty, or if he can Summon Ma and Pa Toad, and they fuse with him, he'll still be able to fight.
So he was not dead, did his ET only now just reform?
I am not perfect and I defy you to prove otherwise
Growing Old Gracefully is an Oxymoron ... Mostly Moron !
On the So6P, we don't really know how long ago it was that he lived. So, without that knowledge, it's not out of the question that all shinobi that currently exist have a tenuous genetic connection back to the So6P. For example, every single person in the world right now that has blue eyes can be traced back genetically to a single ancestor with an gene mutation. In fact, that could help explain why certain clans are more prominent than others, they could trace more ancestors back. Meanwhile, it also explains why, if chakra was just a matter of mixing spirit and physical energy, not every single person in the Naruto world were shinobi of some sort. The people who can't form chakra either have the chakra gene recessively, or don't possess it at all.
On Sarutobi, it might just be that he regenerated earlier, but since he can't use the Hiraishin technique, he couldn't keep up with the action. Plus, it's not out of character for him to observe the enemy. Maybe he's come up with a plan?
As for why Naruto isn't using Sage mode, he just had everything drained from him, including physical energy it seems, so he's a little wiped out. If Sasuke and Jugo can transfer the chakra back that Naruto gave them, it might help him recover a little faster.
Wow, now this is something. I'm quite confused though, does this mean that everyone is a descendant from the sage? Or did he somehow give other people chakra?
Anyways, recap: In the beginning there were people waging war, no chakra yet. The Shinju, a giant tree was somewhere, and mankind worshipped it. Then, a fruit grew out of the tree/flower, and propose were told not to touch it. By who? Anyway, a princess ate the fruit, in order to gain power to stop war. Which she did. Then, she gave birth to a child, who also had the same ability. Which later grew to become the sage of six paths. Now, where did his chakra come from? It must be his ability to form chakra, not his actual chakra? But based to what Madara says, he's simply taking the chakra back? Which indicates that all chakra was once the Shinju's. But doesn't people regenerate chakra? Where does that come from then?
Anyway, now, Madara and Obito simply try to exploit the Shinju tree's ability to reflect its eye at the moon. How do they know that it's eye is reflected on the moon? When the moon was created from the juubi's body?
Lots of questions here..

Rowdy Asbell, 18, a senior at Eldorado High School, was strapped to an emergency breathing apparatus used in coal mines at Eldorado High School Monday.
The air in the school was not bad. It was a training exercise in one of the newest curriculum offerings of the school.
Asbell is enrolled in the coal mining class taught by David Jones at the high school and overseen by the Mine Safety Health Administration.
The class equals 32 hours of training in the real world and MSHA issues a certificate to the students when they complete it. The training is helpful in securing a job, according to Jones.
Asbell wants to work at the Patiki mine near Carmi. The class is offered to seniors who want to work in the mines.

Forward duo Semisi Taulava and Chris Jones and are both recalled by Worcester Warriors for their clash with Exeter Chiefs.
Forward duo Semisi Taulava and Chris Jones and are both recalled by Worcester Warriors for their clash with Exeter Chiefs.
Lock Jones, who makes his 199th Premiership appearance, and number eight Taulava both start games for the first time since January as head coach Richard Hill makes a total of five changes to his starting line-up.
The third change in the pack sees Scotland international tighthead prop Euan Murray called-up, with ex-Exeter front-rower John Andress moving to the bench.
Centre Josh Matavesi will face his former employers after being named in midfield alongside Alex Grove, while scrum-half Jonny Arr returns to partner Andy Goode at half back.
Scrum-half Shaun Perry could make his first senior appearance in over six months after being named among the replacements alongside all-action flanker Sam Betty, who also returns to the matchday squad.
"I can't accept going to London Irish, who are third bottom, and losing 26-6. That is totally unacceptable so we owe the supporters a big performance against Exeter," said Hill.
"There's been two other occasions – away at Bath and away at Exeter – where we've performed poorly and we've responded well on both occasions.
"We perform well at home so we have made sure all the players are in a very positive frame of mind so we can play like we have done week in week out here.
"Exeter are a team that don't make many mistakes. They're a machine-like team who are very efficient and well-drilled. It will be a very testing game for us."
Meanwhile, Exeter's sole change to the starting XV sees James Scaysbrook, who missed the game last weekend due to the birth of his second daughter, return in the back-row in place of Ben White.
White moves onto the bench at the expense of former Warriors player Kai Horstmann, whilst Fijian international Sireli Naqelevuki is also back on the bench in place of Ian Whitten after missing out last week due to a knee injury. Saturday's game will also mark the 100th league appearance for winger Matt Jess in an Exeter jersey.
Form: The Warriors have not won on the road in the Premiership for 15 months – an unwanted sequence that was stretched to 14 consecutive league defeats with a 26-6 loss to the Exiles last weekend. Worcester have not been in fine form in recent weeks – their sole victory in their last seven Aviva Premiership fixtures was 29-23 at home to London Wasps earlier this month. Comparatively, Exeter won their most recent away match 27-16 at Harlequins but have not managed back-to-back away victories in the competition since last April. All three previous Aviva Premiership contests between the two clubs have been taken by the Chiefs, while Worcester's most recent victory over Exeter was 25-14 at the old County Ground in National One in March 2004.
The teams:
Worcester Warriors: 15 Chris Pennell, 14 Josh Drauniniu, 13 Alex Grove, 12 Josh Matavesi, 11 David Lemi, 10 Andy Goode, 9 Jonny Arr, 8 Semisi Taulava, 7 Matt Kvesic, 6 Neil Best, 5 Chris Jones, 4 James Percival (c), 3 Euan Murray, 2 Ed Shervington, 1 Matt Mullan.
Replacements: 16 Aleki Lutui, 17 Ceri Jones, 18 John Andress, 19 Dean Schofield, 20 Sam Betty, 21 Shaun Perry, 22 Danny Gray, 23 Jon Clarke.
Exeter Chiefs: 15 Luke Arscott, 14 Jack Nowell, 13 Phil Dollman, 12 Jason Shoemark, 11 Matt Jess, 10 Gareth Steenson, 9 Haydn Thomas, 8 Richard Baxter (c), 7 James Scaysbrook, 6 Dave Ewers, 5 Damian Welch, 4 Dean Mumm, 3 Hoani Tui, 2 Jack Yeandle, 1 Carl Rimmer.
Replacements: 16 Chris Whitehead, 17 Brett Sturgess, 18 Craig Mitchell, 19 James Hanks, 20 Ben White, 21 Will Chudley, 22 Henry Slade, 23 Sireli Naqelevuki.
Date: Saturday, 30 March
Venue: Sixways
Kick-off: 15:00
Referee: David Rose

Hi! I'm Press Rep Tori. I went to Washington, D. C. for Rock the Mall.
It was not really a mall, even though it is spelled the same way. It's really just a bunch of famous museums. It was at the Washington Monument and I got to meet Girl Scouts from all over the world and I mean, ALL over the world. I got to meet a Girl Scout from Canada and from Great Britain. Everywhere we stopped we had Girl Scouts asking to trade swaps and I got a lot of them!
We ate at the Hard Rock Cafe for a Girl Scout breakfast and it was really good. My mom and I wanted to meet the girls from "So Random!" (they are movie stars) at one of the booths. They were signing autographs but we didn't stop because it was SOOOO hot. We also wanted to do a DOVE commercial but we didn't because it was so hot and so crowded. It was so crowded it was hard to move.
I still think it was really cool that I got to see 100 years of Girl Scouting from all over the world! Just seeing the Girl Scouts made me proud to be one myself!

Posted on 05/03/2014 4:45:23 PM PDT by 2ndDivisionVet
The Trayvon Martin Foundation will host a two-day healing retreat for mothers who have experienced gun violence.
The Circle of Mothers Empowerment Retreat, spearheaded Sybrina Fulton will be held in Weston, Florida from May 16-18 and will include workshops, empowerment seminars, and keynote speeches by influencers including rapper Tupac Shakurs mother Afeni Shakur.
Fulton is inviting all mothers, not just African-Americans, who have lost a child. The loss of a child is unbearable, she said in a statement. The goal of this retreat is to gather together women, who like myself have experienced every mothers nightmare.
Both Shakur and Fulton have lost sons very publicly and have transformed their loss into social change. Both hope this weekend will help mothers by giving them the tools to take the progressive steps forward towards healing, said Fulton.
For more information on the Circle of Mothers Empowerment Retreat, head over to Cocoa Fab.
My heart goes out to mothers who were innocent victims, not thugs like Martin.
It should be for victims of black violence, not perpetrators of it.
Host one called "Victim of Democrat Violence", you could pack the Rose Bowl.
I hope every one realizes that this Trayvon Martin "foundation" is simply a way for Sybrina Fulton to have money to pay her travel and other expenses and also to place her on salary for her "services.
This farce is being held at the Bonaventure Resort & Spa. The place is given good marks at tripadvisor, mediocre at Yelp. I can't imagine what sort of high-end location would want to associate with this type of thing.
Trayvon Martin Foundation To Host Summit For Mothers Who Have Lost Children to Violent People.
There fixed it
Momma dogs invited?
It's not gun violence,it's people to people violence.A gun is an inanimate object,has no mind or will of it's own.
Most of them have been killed by black gang-bangers.
Socialists/Marxists are using this woman,she's just too stupid to realize it.
Sybrina Fulton did not raise Trayvon full time past the age of 2.
She and her estranged husband/boyfriend, have consistently been in the media, presenting themselves as a couple, and presenting their lives as having been an intact family, in which they were raising their son.
In fact, Trayvon was raised in a variety of ad hoc arrangements. This mother, while she may feel grief, cannot feel the same grief as a mother who actually raised her children. Sorry, if this sounds heartless, so be it.
Based on the Martin case, and how this has been portrayed by the liberals, the media, and the race baiters, you would swear that the biggest threat to young black men was a White Hispanic neighborhood watch volunteer.
In fact, by far, the biggest threat to young black men are other black men with guns. But, why let the facts get in the way of the liberal narrative which has been constructed?
She didn't lose a child to violent people. She lost a child due to his propensity for violence.
I would love to see financial statements from this foundation. It would be interesting to see who donates, what the expenses are, and who the salaried employees/directors are.
Indeed I have to wonder whose idea it in fact was to try to trademark her son's name? I suspect an Al Sharpton might figure prominently in that stunt.
"She lost a child due to his propensity for violence."
She may have lost a child due to her poor parenting skills,but she's not prepared to even consider that possibility.
Bonaventure is practically out in the middle of the Everglades. One of the only good things about Ft. Lauderdale is that it has a decent beach (though you have to pay to park).
If you're not near the beach in Ft. Lauderdale (or on Las Olinas), then you might as well be in Ocala.
Will the workshops include how to break into people's houses? Or how to roll a joint? Or how to beat someone near to death?
They should have this conference in Chicago.
Ten bucks says someone gets shot in some stupid argument.
***Or how to beat someone near to death?***
How to beat someone near to death and not get killed doing so.
Fixed it for ya.
The St. Skittles Foundation....Ha !!
he met his demise a little sooner than he might have, but he would still be in the same place by now, or in a year or two.
He was headed for jail, and an early grave. Zimmerman jsut gave it a jump start.
Thx for your input. As the late great Paul Harvey would say, you've given us "the rest of the story."
"I would love to see financial statements from this foundation. It would be interesting to see who donates, what the expenses are, and who the salaried employees/directors are."
Me too! I'm sure we'd see a real rogues' gallery of the "usual suspects".
Trayvon should NOT have broken George Zimmerman's nose.
Trayvon should NOT have given George Zimmerman two black eyes.
Trayvon should NOT have repeatedly slammed George Zimmerman's head on the pavement.
Trayvon should NOT have gotten suspended from school for possessing traces of marijuana.
Trayvon should NOT have stolen 12 pcs of ladies jewelry, and a mans watch.
Trayvon should NOT have kept a flat head screwdriver described as a burglary tool, in his backpack.
Trayvon should NOT have had a criminal past of theft, hiding and acting suspicious.
Trayvon should NOT have encouraged ... fellow thugs to commit murder with the tweet, Plzz shoot da #mf dat lied 2 u!.
TRAYVON MARTIN: - Hey, are you following me?
GEORGE ZIMMERMAN: - Ummm, yes.
TRAYVON MARTIN: - May I ask why?
GEORGE ZIMMERMAN: - Well, uh, we've had a number off robberies in this neighborhood lately, and I don't recognize you...
TRAYVON MARTIN: - Oh, well, I'm Travon Martin, I'm spending the summer at my uncle's in unit 12. I expect you'll see a lot of me this summer.
GEORGE ZIMMERMAN: - OK, thanks, good to know. I'm George Zimmerman, by the way.
They shake hands.
TRAYVON MARTIN: - No, thank you for keeping an eye out for your neighbors!
The "Trayvon Trail of Tears & Racketeering" continues.
Do you think they might ever host a summit for mothers of Black children lost to Black violence? I'm willing to bet the attendance might be just a tad higher. And yes I know..............RACIST!
If TM had a real Mother he might still be alive today!
Martin has become a money making industry. Hey! Anytime you get a chance to make some big bucks off an idiot getting himself killed, go for it!
Should be a seminar for "Mothers" on how to control those "Little Trayvon's" that play the knock out game, break into houses etc. etc.
Probably how to make "lean" or "drank" as well.
Skittles and Purple Drank will be served poolside after the seminar. :-)
I'm done caring about this idiocracy we live in now.
Mammas Don't Let Your Babies Grow Up To Be Trayvons
Trayvons ain't easy to love and they're awful damn dumb.
They'd rather shout rap songs than go to school and learn.
WorldStar HipHop and knockout game videos,
And each arrest begins a new sentence.
If you don't understand him, an' he don't die young,
He'll prob'ly just OD.
Mamas, don't let your babies grow up to be Trayvons.
Don't let 'em be burglars or drink Purple Drank.
Let 'em cook fast food and wash cars and such.
Mamas don't let your babies grow up to be Trayvons.
'Cos they'll join a gang and they're always in prison.
Unless they meet up with a man with a gun.
A better use of their time would be to host a two day retreat on how to parent your child.
Who knows why you just had to make that lean,
who knows why you became part of the gangsta scene,
who knows who sold you all them blunts,
who understood your whistles and your grunts,
who made you assault the neighborhood watch,
whose jewelry was that you were caught with at school
who made you act the ghetto fool?
Why didnt your Crip daddy stick around,
whose head on the pavement did you pound,
who had to make a decision that fateful night,
when you left him no escape and picked a fight,
who made the choice to mock and sass,
an armed watchman (you called creepy ass),
who couldve gone home but didnt there go,
instead walked towards a six foot deep hole.
"Will the workshops include how to break into peoples houses? Or how to roll a joint? Or how to beat someone near to death?"
Don't forger how to make that "Purple Drank"
F Trayvon's "Dad", Barack "the Kenyan turd" Obama
Are they serving purple drank?
Set up a stand selling skittles and hoodies. You will make a million dollars. You take checks? Just don't cash it til the 15th.
Very good!
They were going to have a summit for fathers that have lost sons, but none of them will be out on parole in time.

Blast from the 90s!
"I had platform sneakers I loved as a kid, so when I saw these, I knew I had to get them. I wasn't so crazy about the jewels on the toes, so I cut them off with an exacto knife. There's holes from where they were sewn on, but it's not too much of an eye sore to me. The velvet shoe laces made getting the shoes on and off harder, so I replaced them and made a necklace instead :)"

Sorry to read about your misfortune with your pot. Is it an old zhu ni one? Maybe you could send it to that Japanese master repair potter? I can't remember where I saw his name and what he does exactly but I am pretty sure it was in one of TC's threads. I remember he was charging quite a bit for his work but I guess your pot commands for a proper professional repair. Good luck.
Already used JB Weld. You'd hardly notice it but there is a tiny chip missing. I need to figure out how to fill that tiny hole with some sort of gold pigment mixed with JB Weld. We have a lot of gold leaf here. The pot is already back in my rotation. Thanks.

Used for three different seasons in mountain conditions in NEPA and absolutely loved them, couldn't ask for much more from a tire. In all conditions they had great traction for me. Never really slid around even with a full car.

By JASON BAILEYSun Advocate/Progress Webmaster
In recent years, Digital Rights Management (DRM) has been the centerpiece of the technology world, particularly in the music industry. It is no doubt one of the most heated topics in computer history. As the old adage says, "there's always two sides to a story," and this is no different.
DRM is essentially a concept which implements controls that determine what a user can or cannot do with a digital file or device. DRM may restrict what devices your music files will play on, stop you from sharing digital audio or video, prevent you from skipping commercials on a movie, or determine who can make changes to particular electronic documents.
DRM was central to the Digital Millennium Copyright Act, which was passed by Congress and signed into law by President Bill Clinton in 1998. This act, often referred to as the DMCA, makes it illegal to circumvent or thwart DRM provisions and creates stiff penalties for violators.
Proponents of the bill insist it is a necessary measure to protect intellectual property and other forms of copyright from theft. Critics insist the bill was "purchased legislation" by lobbying industries and essentially makes the rights of corporations (particularly in the digital media industry) more important than the rights of individuals and consumers.
A perfect example is the many music enthusiasts (who often call DRM "Digital Restrictions Management") that feel DRM violates consumers' right to fair use.
For example, suppose someone wants to make a backup copy of their favorite audio CD for safe keeping, in case the original is broken or damaged. Because a DRM enabled computer has no way of knowing whether or not this copy is an attempt at CD piracy, it may disallow the copy from being made.
Suppose someone wants to watch a movie on DRM enabled DVD player, and wants to skip twenty minutes of previews and get on with the movie. DRM provisions built into the player may prevent them from doing that.
DRM could also prevent music stored on a portable digital audio player, like Apple's iPod, from being played on any other device (including a PC or a competing player).
Supporters of DRM and the DMCA insist that strong actions must be used to enforce a blatant disregard for copyright. Many cite the once infamous peer-to-peer Napster network as an example, where thousands of users across the globe freely exchanged hundreds of thousands of music files, which resulted in revenue losses in the millions of dollars within the recording industry.
After the Napster network was ordered by US courts to shut down, a new decentralized peer-to-peer network quickly arose and expanded to include much more than music. Thousands of movie titles were being distributed, in addition to a myriad of hacked commercial software packages. Many industries have had losses as a result.
DRM proponents insist DRM restrictions are the only solution for a global-scale problem that is far out of hand. On the flip side, DRM critics insist that the technology will never stop the real criminals (who will never fail to circumvent DRM schemes), but will only victimize honest consumers who have no desire to break the law. Many cite Sony BMG's recent DRM blunder as an example that left hundreds of thousands of honest Sony consumers with broken PCs that were made vulnerable to serious security breaches.
Regardless of which side of the issue you may sympathize with, Digital Rights Management (DRM) is an important topic that will surely affect all of us (good or bad) for decades to come. As a result, we should all be aware of it, and involved in its legal development.

The gold, worth €72 million (£62.2 million), was transported through French airports, according to customs officers, despite a European Union pledge to freeze the fallen despot's assets.
French customs sources suspect that the traffic was organised by Trabelsi, a former hairdresser nicknamed the Queen of Carthage. She and her husband fled to Saudi Arabia when he was

New Favorite Boots
"I had been eyeing these boots for a couple months, rainy season is coming and I couldn't hold off any longer. I love how casual looking they are, they pass for rain boots and dress boots. I can easily dress them down or up and definitely don't get tired feet in them either they are super comfy. I also get tons of compliments on how they don't look like you're regular ol' rubber boots. I LOVE them! I'm a short gal so they do fit me a little long, hitting right at the knee so when I run in them I feel funny. But then again I probably shouldn't be running in them..."

"I love the style of this boot!! However, I am typically a size 8.5 (and like many people, one of my feet is longer than the other) - I tried on the 8 and the 9 - the 8 was tight and the 9 was really loose. i ended up going with the 8, but it was definitely tough to decide between the 2.. please offer half sizes!!!"

In February, Saint Louis University was recognized as a 2012 Tree Campus by the National Arbor Day Foundation. Launched in 2008, the national program honors colleges and universities and their leaders for promoting healthy trees and engaging students and staff in the spirit of conservation. SLU became the one of five institutions in Missouri, and only the second Jesuit institution to earn the distinction.
As the University prepares the re-certification process for 2013, it will hold Arbor Day Observance events Thursday, April 25.
There will be an information table on the quad in front of DuBourg Hall beginning at 11 a.m., with representatives of the Campus Tree Advisory Team available to answer any questions regarding the process. There will also be sign-up sheets for anyone interested in participating in the re-certification process. All are invited to stop by and learn more about the Tree Campus USA designation.
Later, there will be a ceremonial tree planting scheduled at 3 p.m. Flowering Dogwoods, which are the Missouri state tree, will be planted near the south side of DuBourg Hall.

Skip to comments.John Lott Destroys CNN's Soledad O'Brien on Gun Free Zones (Watch Video)
Posted on 12/18/2012 5:46:26 PM PST by SeekAndFind
Mass shootings in the United States have at least one thing in common: they all happen in in gun free zones. Yesterday economist and author of More Guns Less Crime John Lott went on CNN with anchor Soledad O'Brien to discuss why mass shootings occur in gun free zones. O'Brien as usual, wasn't interested in factual data Lott was presenting and continually cut him off as he was making his points.
John Lott, the gun advocate who recently had a heated encounter with Piers Morgan, spoke to Soledad O'Brien on Monday morning — continuing to make his pro-gun argument. O'Brien had a hard time stomaching Lott's perspective, telling him she simply does not understand it.
The common feature across such attacks, Lott said, is that, with few exceptions, they've occurred where guns have been banned. "But there's more than one thing in common, right?" O'Brien asked, adding that they're armed, often with semi-automatic weapons.
The point, Lott underlined, is that these "gun-free" pockets are the ones that are targeted. Specifically, he spoke about the gunman who chose the movie theater in Aurora, as opposed to other nearby theaters. O'Brien countered that Lott hasn't spoken to him and has no way of knowing the gunman's thought process. "How do you know that?" she asked. "You don't know that."
"Why is your takeaway from all of this to get rid of gun laws — and your takeaway is not to say, 'There are people who should not have access to certain types of weapons,'" O'Brien questioned.In this instance, she said, we know the gunman used a semi-automatic rifle to breaking into the building, rendering their security useless. "Why would you not say that's exactly the kind of weapon that someone should not be able to easily get their hands on?"
Lott said that Germany had three of the five worst public shootings in the world. And Germany has extremely strict gun control laws. "Yet they've had a worse record," Lott said.
"I don't argue Second Amendment, I argue crime," Lott said.
Like most liberal media personalities, O'Brien is ignorant about how guns actually work. It is also clear throughout the interview she doesn't understand the difference between automatic and semi-automatic weapons.
O'Brien's further ignorance of this topic is revealed when, after dismissing Lott's citation of Germany, which has essentially banned semi-automatic weapons but has a terrible record of school shootings, she again claims that "a rational person could say that having access to a high-powered, semi-automatic rifle is inappropriate, that there's no reason to go deer-hunting with that." The "assault weapon" used in Newtown, however, as in Colorado, was actually not a legal deer rifle because it is actually not "high powered," it's too weak to safely kill a deer.
O'Brien, who is supposed to be an objective news anchor, not only exposed her own agenda yesterday but the agenda of mainstream media outlets everywhere. After all, CNN's Don Lemon said yesterday that "it doesn't matter" gun crime is down all over the country, incorrectly stated that automatic weapons are roaming the streets and implied anyone who owns a semi-automatic weapon wants to hunt kids. Both O'Brien and Lemon work in a building in New York City protected by security guards armed with semi-automatic weapons.
During her interview with Lott, O'Brien said his positions on the issue "boggled her mind," and yet as Megan McArdle points out today, there really isn't much we could have done to prevent the horrific massacre last week.
What Lanza shows us is the limits of the obvious policy responses. He had all the mental health resources he needed--and he did it anyway. The law stopped him from buying a gun--and he did it anyway. The school had an intercom system aimed at stopping unauthorized entry--and he did it anyway. Any practical, easy-to-implement solution to school shootings that you could propose, along with several that were not at all easy to implement, was already in place. Somehow, Lanza blew through them all.
In the end, none of this will comfort the families of those whose children were killed last week however, moving forward it is important to keep factual and logical arguments in mind to prevent turning even more people into "gun free zone" victims.
Every time I see her debating in a video clip she's having her head handed to her.
Who watches cable? I cut the cord a long time ago.
How could someone with such a boggled mind make it through Harvard?
Like most liberals she is overly emotional and lacks common sense.
They will not listen to reason, they will only listen to power and we had better show them some power when this bill hits the floor of the House. It better not even come up for debate.
I think it obvious that a person armed with a pump action 12ga loaded with 00 buck could have inflicted as much or more carnage at Newtown. 9rd tubular magazines are common and reloading is quick and easy.
It's not the guns, it's evil people.
Timothy McVeigh...168 lives lost including 19 children under age 6...no firearms involved!
Can't find any video.Do you have to sign up or PAY to access?
I saw that flipping through Youtube on my TV. But it was titled "Soledad wrecks Lott"
She seemed frustrated that the facts were not on her side.
Wow, John Lott is a saint. I can't believe he didn't reach out of the screen and choke the hell out of that grandstanding bitch.
Do they come any dumber than Soledad O'Brien? I don't think so ......
I get the impression that Soledad's mind would be boggled by a feather tied to a piece of string. She has to be one of the dumbest people in the news media.
Our media are bigger co-dependents than Nancy Lanza
I think the last quote by Miss McArdle summed everything..."he blew right thru that"
Eventually, even the extremist Gun Grabber is going to have to realize....the only way you stop people like Lanza is one good shot penetrating the skull and into the brain
Harvard has a 98% graduation rate. Once accepted (for whatever reason), it's more of a challenge not to graduate.
RE: Can't find any video.Do you have to sign up or PAY to access?
No you don't have to. See here:
Twenty one children 1 through 13 years were burned alive at Waco by the government.
Is that pronounced nerd?
Affirmative action, maybe?
Massacres by the govt don't count though/s
Soledad O'Brien is the very epitome of a "progressive" airhead.
That was not a report, it was an opinion of the reporter with no information on her side and facts directly opposite to her feelings.
Simply pitiful.
Huh? I watched it.
These numbers are just for the hunters who've applied for hunters licences! Imagine how many more gun owners are out there! (Warms the cockles of me heart.)
This may be why the regime has been timid to take on gun owners directly, especially before the election - ahahah How ya gonn take that many guna away from a free poople?
Sorry - I mistakenly responded to your response. Nevermind. Wish this site had some way to edit posts.
At the very end she states "I just completely do not understand it"...that about sums up Soledud nO'Brain on pretty much any issue.
Oh! Stop it!...Does anyone know the theory of why .223 M-16 replaced 7.62 (long round) M-14 in Viet Nam??
jafojeffsurf~: " That was not a report, it was an opinion of the reporter with no information on her side and facts directly opposite to her feelings.
Simply pitiful. "
Exactly so !!
Another talking head Bimbo
Demorats 'feel' and have emotion ; Pubs think and argue with FACTS
Most Mainstreamedia newsreports are now opinion pages , devoid of FACTS !
At the rates they charge there is no compelling reason to flunk anyone!
Lott needs to argue that if the teachers or staff was allowed to be armed, the killer could have been stop. Current laws do not allow teachers or staff to have guns on gun free zone schools.
Arguing that an AR-15 is no different from a hunting rifle (technically correct) is a PR disaster because the uninformed do not know that. Lott should point out that the US cannot ban semi autos because it is the best gun to have in self defense (bad economy and fear of crime would understand that). Second he should point out that guns are used 160,000 times annually to thwart off crime which can potentially resulted in rape, death or serious injuries to an unarmed victim. Crazy people, criminals and terrorists will get the semi auto no matter what the laws are. Banning these guns from law abiding armed citizens will endanger their ability to defend themselves against better armed attackers. There is no perfect law to prevent that crazies from getting guns absolutely. Current laws stop most of the unlawful buying of guns, but a few will get thru. When that happens how will liberals deal with that. Gun bans will make it worst for the law abiding citizen, but allowing law abiding citizens to be armed makes better sense. In summary, these types of killers in the first place want to commit suicide and take out as many people in the process to get headlines. Notice they never try this at bars frequent by bikers or off duty cops.
Finally the problem is not institutionalizing mentally violent people who are incapable of taking meds on time. They wander the streets causing violence on the rest of society until they snap and commit murder/mayhem. The US does not need more gun control, they need mental people control.
I'll raise you your "airhead" and call her a liberal dip-$hit. She's amazing to listen to, there's nothing that will change her opinion and she's happy to let everyone know how righteous she is. CNN's got a real bimbo on their hands. Simply remarkable. There, that's my opinion.
I really don't want to give anyone any ideas, BUT, it sure is surprising that MSDNC, CNN etal do not have a trespass order against the likes of someone such as John Lott.
He is not one of these airheads that all of a sudden 'pops up' to be a 'specialist' on the issue de jour but is well, read, schooled, knows what he is talking about, and knows how to express himself and hold the idiots at bay etc etc.
How they can put their 'featherweights' up against him is really surprising....
Shows just how smart those idiots are....
Yeah, Lanza had roughly 660 seconds from the time he entered the school to when he killed himself. It's difficult to imagine any gun made in the past 100 years that wouldn't have allowed him to kill 28 defenseless people in all that time.
Of course, she is convinced that she is Lott's moral superior and that his profound expertise should be ignored.
All together now, let's sing the liberals' theme song:
democrats and liberals feel that writing a law solves a problems when they are ignorant of what the problem really is....thay got no brain cells that work...
I'll second that. She is just an amazing woman. And I mean that, of course, in a very negative way.
I would not have been so kind. I would have told her that obviously her mind is boggled since she wants to disarm even more American citizens and make them helpless before violent criminals.
***** "Oh! Stop it!...Does anyone know the theory of why .223 M-16 replaced 7.62 (long round) M-14 in Viet Nam??" ******
Don't know what the "OFFICIAL" theory is but I do know you could carry the lighter M-16 a lot further, along with a lot more ammo and then there is the "Spray and Pray" Tactic.
I wish I could buy an M-14 off the shelf... (that was my favorite Rifle).
Lott was stating facts, facts she did not want to hear, and all she could say was he SHOULDN'T have that gun...he SHOULDN'T have that gun. Well, Honey, he did... If one teacher had been armed many more kids would still be alive. Someone SHOULD have shot his ass.
YouTube link didn't work, do you have the title of the video ?
"How could someone with such a boggled mind make it through Harvard?"
You're kidding, right?
BINGO, We have a winner.
HAAAAARVAAARD is a BS School populated with future Kings of the World who are mental midgets shoehorned in by legacy
(Think the entire Kennedy Clan), Affirmative Action candidates better suited for the local Community College (Think O'Bumbler and his Beast wife), and those who are truly gifted with intellect, about 20% of the undergraduates.
The key to Harvard and all its' promise of future glory is in getting admitted. Once you are in, you are set for life. It is a way for the elites to STAY elite.
.........but it makes them feeeel better because thy care.
Yep they get to feel self rightous that they made a law...a useless law, but a law none the less.....useless eaters to quote some liberal or communist/marxist
The most prominent platform for Semi-Auto pistols is the Colt 1911, that is more than 100 years old and is virtually unchanged since John Browning developed it. The AK 47 is DAMN near 70 years old, the modern 'Assault Rifle, IS 70 years old and developed in Germany during WW II.
The Genie is out of the bottle and any CRIMINAL could get hold of one if he wants one. All gun laws do is to prevent the law abiding, IE: GOOD GUYS, from having the protection offered by one. ALSO there are an estimated 250-300 MILLION firearms in private citizens hands in the U.S.A., How are you going to get rid of all of them?
Perhaps that tells us something about Harvard.

The wording is interesting in the light of a Monday report from ESPN New York that the chances of the Jets aggressively pursuing Tebow are "a long shot at best." It sounds like the Jets brass, beaten by Tebow in a dramatic finish last season, have at least kicked the idea around internally.

Fullback who can throw. Not the worst idea right?
While he was slogging through stop-and-go traffic at the entrance to the Lincoln Tunnel, the car next to him was violently rear-ended. The quarterback threw his car into park, hopped out and ran to the woman whose car had been hit. She was wearing, of all things, an Esiason jersey, and was utterly shocked when he tapped on her window to check on her.
"Are you OK?" he said, trying to keep calm. "Are you OK?"
"Boomer? Is that you?" she asked the Good Samaritan, sounding disoriented. "I think I'm OK, but . ... "
But what?
"But you guys sucked."

haha that would be kind of awesome
in all seriouness
if you can get tebow for a 7th rounder or some throw away pick of a trade it would make for good value
the kid is going to hustle his ass off. why roll the dice on trying to land a FB in the 7th round when you can potentially get tebow to run for you on a 3rd and short. the kid can be utilized and if its for cheap then of course a team will consider it.
Posted 21 March 2012 - 06:54 AM
The Jets have reportedly gone from "lurking on the periphery of the trade talks" to in the thick of them. A team source confirmed to ESPN New York the potential move would at least in part be an effort to heal the Jets' fractured locker room. "Bringing in a guy like (Tebow) would help," the source said. "It makes perfect sense." In reality, adding a polarizing personality like Tebow could serve to further divide Gang Green, and would certainly put even more pressure on embattled starter Mark Sanchez. A league source has also confirmed to ESPN's Adam Schefter the Dolphins are "not likely" to make a move for Tebow. Mar 20 - 10:51 PM
Source: ESPN New York
Sporting News
Orlando television station WKMG, citing a source close to Tebow, reported late Tuesday night that the Denver Broncos are expected to trade the quarterback to one of those teams as early as midday Wednesday. Denver would receive a third-round draft pick in exchange, according to the report.
WKMG reported that new Jaguars owner Shahid Khan conducted trade negotiations with the Broncos and Tebow's representatives Tuesday night and that talks are expected to resume Wednesday.
The Florida Times-Union reported that the Jaguars have held internal discussions about acquiring Tebow but had not entered formal talks with the Broncos as of Tuesday afternoon.
The Jets' possible interest in Tebow was made known earlier in the evening. A team source told the New York Daily News that the Jets "are players in the Tim Tebow race". The New York Post reported that the Jets see Tebow as someone who can help repair divisions among players.
Earlier reports said the Jets, Jaguars, Green Bay Packers, Miami Dolphins and one unidentified team had expressed interest in trading for Tebow.
Tebow's future has been in question since Monday, when Peyton Manning and the Broncos began work on a five-year deal—the former Colts quarterback officially signed Tuesday. ESPN reported that with Manning in the fold, the Broncos would trade the polarizing Tebow.
The Jets have three QBs on their roster, but they still have interest in trading for Tim Tebow. (AP Photo)
The Daily News' report again draws into question just how comfortable the Jets feel at quarterback.
The team expressed interest in visiting with Manning when he was making the rounds as a free agent. After pulling out of the Manning race, the Jets quickly gave incumbent QB Mark Sanchez a five-year, $58.5 million extension—a deal in which the guaranteed money is significantly front-loaded.
Moreover, New York has already signed Drew Stanton to presumably be Sanchez's backup, and Greg McElroy is the third quarterback.
General manager Mike Tannenbaum said he "feels good about" the Jets' quarterbacks in an earlier conference call with reporters.
"You never know if other opportunities present themselves," Tannenbaum added, according to the Daily News. "We'll always look at it. The standard line there. We feel good about Greg and Drew and Mark. … And we'll see where we go from there."
The Daily News pontificates that new offensive coordinator Tony Sparano, who successfully ran the Wildcat offense in Miami, could use a player like Tebow to draw up unique packages.
But while the Jets have reportedly had serious internal discussions about Tebow, at least one player thinks the Jets are best off staying put.
Cornerback Antonio Cromartie tweeted the following: "We don't need Tebow. We sell out every home game let him go to Jacksonville Tampa or Miami."
Jacksonville may just be where Tebow lands. He's from the area, he was a national champion and a Heisman Trophy winner at the University of Florida, and Khan has said that he would have drafted Tebow two years had he been in charge of the team.
Despite those factors, the Jaguars already have two quarterbacks in newly signed Chad Henne and incumbent starter Blaine Gabbert

Systemic Risk: A Survey
Olivier de Bandt
Banque de France - Economic Study and Research Division
Philipp Hartmann
European Central Bank (ECB); Centre for Economic Policy Research (CEPR) - International Macroeconomics
November 2000
ECB Working Paper No. 35
This paper develops a broad concept of systemic risk, the basic economic concept for the understanding of financial crises. It is claimed that any such concept must integrate systemic events in banking and financial markets as well as in the related payment and settlement systems. At the heart of systemic risk are contagion effects, various forms of external effects. The concept also includes simultaneous financial instabilities following aggregate shocks. The quantitative literature on systemic risk, which was evolving swiftly in the last couple of years, is surveyed in the light of this concept. Various rigorous models of bank and payment system contagion have now been developed, although a general theoretical paradigm is still missing. Direct econometric tests of bank contagion effects seem to be mainly limited to the United States. Empirical studies of systemic risk in foreign exchange and security settlement systems appear to be non-existent. Moreover, the literature surveyed reflects the general difficulty to develop empirical tests that can make a clear distinction between contagion in the proper sense and joint crises caused by common shocks, rational revisions of depositor or investor expectations when information is asymmetric ("information-based" contagion) and "pure" contagion as well as between "efficient" and "inefficient" systemic events.

Harry Kalven and Kenneth Karst in the Supreme Court Review: Reflections after Fifty Years
Mark Tushnet
Harvard Law School
January 11, 2011
Harvard Public Law Working Paper No. 11-01
This Essay, written for the fiftieth anniversary volume of the Supreme Court Review, examines two articles in the initial volume, Harry Kalven's on the law of obscenity and Kenneth Karst's on legislative facts in constitutional adjudication. Both articles exhibit a scholarly temperament of engaged detachment. Unlike much recent work in constitutional law, the articles are entirely doctrinal – and not the worse for that. The articles show that the questions that scholars today regard as deep were already reasonably well understood fifty years ago. The Essay concludes by speculating that the rise of "constitutional theory" explains the disappearance of the sensibility Kalven and Karst exhibited. That rise may have conduced to characterization of those who disagreed with the writer's preferred constitutional theory as either fools or knaves: fools, because they lacked the intellectual capacity to understand the compelling logic of the arguments supporting the theory, or knaves, because, knowing that the theory was the best one available, they willfully disregarded it in the service of their personal projects. The ideas that the constitutional questions the Supreme Court deals with are genuinely difficult and that the Justices, people of varying intellectual ability, can reasonably disagree over those questions are almost completely absent from today's constitutional discourse – and those who try to advance those ideas are dismissed as naïve (fools) or as pursuing a concealed political agenda (knaves).

Not Bad
"Of all the MF shoes I own, these are unfortunately my least favorite. The wingtip detail on this shoe is bit plain, and while the leather is soft and comfortable, it creases noticeably at the toes. I have these in black, which might make the creasing more pronounced. As with all MF shoes, they are so comfortable that I sometimes wonder if I'm wearing the right size or even if I'm wearing shoes at all.Overall, it's a solid shoe, and will likely become a conservative workweek standard for me due to its lack of flair."

Zack Kassian's playoff mullet, in picstitch form.
Image via Derek Jory at Fort Nucks.
Today at CanucksArmy we gave away our year end awards to a variety of Canucks for the 2013 regular season, previewed the first round series between the Canucks at Sharks at length (and we mean it when we say "at length"), and discussed whether or not Frank Corrado is the right call for Vancouver's third-pairing.
Click past the jump for more hot sports takes.
The Canucks have been struggling to sell playoff tickets, but it appears they may have found a creative way to solve their issues today. Savvy stuff. [CTV]
It's looking increasingly likely that Cory Schneider starts game one of the postseason. [White Towel]
Bure's Triple Deke cuts another sweet highlight video featuring Vancouver's top-five plays from the month of April. Love these posts. [Bure's Triple Deke]
In a similar vein, Daniel's sweet breakaway goal against the Blackhawks is the Canucks Play of the Week over at NM. [Nucksmisconduct]
Cosmo seems to think the Canucks are pretty damn hot (physically speaking), and the Sharks are not. For what it's worth, I think the Sharks are sexy and they know it (Wingles, Wingles, Wingles, Wingles, Wingles - YEAH). [Pass it to Bulis]
J.J. Guerrero wonders if the Canucks might hit their "midseason stride" now that they're about to play games 49 through at least 53 (but hopefully more). Interesting analysis. [Canucks Hockey Blog]
You up for some towel power with "main toweler" Harrison Mooney? You should be.
