NHLers Oppose Mandatory Helmet Rule
Danny Gray
September 14 2011 01:51PM
It's a good thing they put his name at the bottom otherwise he'd be unrecognizable
I think after public speaking and death the most common fear is change. Generally speaking people like things the way they are. If it's not broke, don't fix it. The NHL has had a tempestuous history with changes to the game over the years, especially in matters of player safety.
The NHL did not mandate the use of helmets for all of its players until 1979. This was eleven years after Bill Masterton died on the ice due to a head injury sustained during play. Many people claim that the NHL will not do anything about fighting until a player dies, I don't know if even that would be enough. Adoption of the helmet was met with resistance from around the league. Here are some quotes from an NHL coach at the time.
"Next, they'll have everyone in armour. What they've done is taken the identity out of the hockey player. Can you imagine Guy Lafleur flying up the ice with a bubble helmet on his head?"
"The intellectual liberals who run the league don't realize there's more stick play if players wear helmets. They're going to be sorry. First it was the fighting. The next thing will be facemasks."
"For eight years we used to watch (Toronto's) Darryl Sittler cruising up the ice with that curly blonde hair and he was the leader. But with the helmet you won't even notice him."
"I mean how many head injuries have there been in hockey the last four years? None that I can think of."1
To the surprise of no one, that is Colorado Rockies coach Don Cherry deriding the adoption of helmets.
Many were concerned that helmets would make players harder to identify on the ice, and take away from their "mystique". This concern was echoed by current General Manager of the Anaheim Ducks and then Chicago Blackhawk, Bob Murray. "Aside from the discomfort, about the only drawback is that the fans can't identify the players as easily."
When a current player speaks out about the "state of the game" or safety issues many fans take their opinion as vindication of the status quo as the purest form of the game. Unfortunately NHL players have long be on the wrong side of history when it comes to safety issues. If I was a Sharks fan I'd be concerned about these comments from current GM and also a member of the 1979 Chicago Blackhawks Doug Wilson: "I just don't like helmets. When I had a couple of concussions last year, I had to wear a helmet, but as soon as I could I quit. I think I player better without it."2
NHL players and coaches, and Andy Sutton may be "hockey experts" but they are not necessarily safety experts. On one hand our natural resistance to change is beneficial insomuch as it prevents us from acting rashly. On the other it can impede the enactment of necessary and meaningful changes. The NHL has been on the wrong side of player safety before, I just hope they can move to the other side in less than eleven years.

Nice work.
great post.

If only players back then wore numbers on their jerseys like they do now so fans of the time could have told them apart.....

It's amazing how asinine those "arguments" look in retrospect. Of course, I'm sure they were given a lot of due consideration and gravity at the time.

It's funny because people bring up that players should take their helmets off in the shootout in order to increase their visibility.

API keys
API keys provide a simple mechanism for authenticating apps. Apigee Edge generates API keys for apps, and enables you to add API key-based authentication to your APIs using policies. Using Apigee Edge, you can issue, administer and verify API keys without writing any code. This topic shows you how to add API key validation to an API.
API keys go by many names. You may see them referred to as 'API keys', 'app keys', and 'consumer keys'. All of these names are synonymous.
When apps are registered with Edge Developer Services, a consumer key and secret pair is generated for the app. Edge API Services stores the consumer key for future validation. Each consumer key is unique in the organization. The app developer embeds the consumer key in the client app. The client app must present the consumer key for each request. API Services verifies the consumer key before permitting the app's request.
API key validation is the simplest form of app-based security that you can configure for an API. Apps simply present an API key, and Apigee Edge checks to see that the API key is in an approved state for the resource being requested. For this reason the security associated with API keys is limited. API keys can easily be extracted from app code and used to access an API. You may find that API keys work better as unique app identifiers than as security tokens.
/sample-proxies/apikey. Modify the TargetEndpoint configuration to point to your URL. Then deploy.
Policy configuration
You can set up API key validation for an API by attaching a policy of type Verify API Key. The only required setting for a Verify API Key policy is the expected location of the API key in the client request. The API proxy will check the location that you specify, and extract the API key. If the API key is not present in the expected location, then an error is thrown and the request is rejected. API keys can be located in a query parameter, a form parameter, or an HTTP header.
For example, the policy configuration below defines the expected key location as a query parameter named
apikey. A successful request must present the API key as a query parameter appended to the request, for example,
To verify API keys, create the following policy:
<VerifyAPIKey name="APIKeyValidation"> <APIKey ref="request.queryparam.apikey"/> </VerifyAPIKey>
This policy can be attached to any API that you need to protect.
Comprehensive documentation of this policy type can be found in the policy reference topic, Verify API Key policy.
API proxies automatically passthrough all HTTP headers and query parameters that are present on the request. Therefore, after the API key has been verified, it's a good idea to strip it from the message so that the API key is not sent over the wire to the backend service. You can do that using a policy of type AssignMessage as follows:
<AssignMessage name="StripApiKey"> <DisplayName>Remove Query Param</DisplayName> <Remove> <QueryParams> <QueryParam name="apikey"/> </QueryParams> </Remove> <IgnoreUnresolvedVariables>true</IgnoreUnresolvedVariables> <AssignTo createNew="false" transport="http" type="request"></AssignTo> </AssignMessage>
Policy attachment
The policies must be attached to an API proxy Flow as processing Steps. By applying the policy to the request PreFlow, API keys are verified on every request received by the API proxy from a client app. After verification, the API key is stripped from the outbound request.
Attach the policies to the ProxyEndpoint of the API proxy to be protected as follows:
<ProxyEndpoint name="default"> <PreFlow> <Request> <Step><Name>APIKeyValidation</Name></Step> <Step><Name>StripApiKey</Name></Step> </Request> </PreFlow>
After you attach the policy, deploy the API proxy.
Submitting a request with a valid API key
As an admin in your organization, you can retrieve any app's API key as follows:
$ curl https://api.enterprise.apigee.com/v1/o/{myorg}/developers/{developer_email}/apps/{app_name} -u email:password
{myorg} and your Apigee Edge email address and password for
The app profile that is returned for this call provides the consumer key (API key) and secret. The consumer key value is the value you use for the API key in your request to the protected API.
For example, a request that does not include an API key results in an authorization failure.
$ curl http://{org_name}-test.apigee.net/weather/forecastrss?w=12797282
The failure message indicates that the policy checked for an API key but did not find a valid key:
OAuth Failure : Could not resolve the app key with variable request.queryparam.apikey
When the consumer key for the app is included as a query parameter, the expected result is successful authorization:
$ curl http://{org_name}-test.apigee.net/weather/forecastrss?w=12797282&"apikey=PulSCqMnXGchW0pC0s5o9ngHVTWMeLqk"
The expected result is a successful response from the weather service.
Modifying the value of the API key value in the request results in an authorization failure:
$ curl http://{org_name}-test.apigee.net/weather?forecastrss?w=12797282&"apikey=PulSCqMnXGchW0"
Results in:
OAuth Failure : Consumer Key is Invalid
Remember, as an admin for your organization, you can retrieve the consumer key for any app registered in an organization:
$ curl https://api.enterprise.apigee.com/v1/o/{myorg}/developers/{developer_email}/apps/{app_name} -u email:password

WA Prepaid Tuition Credits in Jeopardy
This may be the worst year for Washington parents looking to buy prepaid tuition credits for their children.
If a Republican-led coalition has its way, lawmakers would spend the next couple months developing a plan to scrap the Guaranteed Education Tuition (GET) program altogether.
Meanwhile, some Democrats, are looking to put enough money into higher education that the price of prepaid tuition could plummet in the coming years.
The Legislature has left itself few options for the GET program after years of cutting state support for universities, pushing tuition rates up dramatically and the GET program into a financial hole.
Just four years ago, parents used to be able to prepay a year's worth of tuition for $7,600. That has more than doubled.
People can now reserve a year's worth of tuition by investing $17,200 in the GET program - a hefty premium on today's tuition prices.

"The people's pledge significantly reduced outside money, it significantly reduced outside advertising, it limited dark or secret money in our elections and it boosted the role of small donors."
The study compared the 2012 Senate race in Massachusetts , to three other competitive 2012 Senate races in Virginia, Ohio and Wisconsin. It found in the other races, upwards of 80% of all TV ads were negative, as opposed to Massachusetts, where 36% of the ads were negative. Tyler Creighton, the author of the study, says the people's pledge also reduced spending by outside groups. Just seconds after Ed Markey won the Democratic nomination, he hammered Gomez to sign the people's pledge. But Gomez says he absolutely will not sign it. Tufts Political Science Professor Jeff Berry says it's not to Gomez's advantage to sign the pledge:
"He is quite a bit behind Markey in his capacity to raise money on his own, the race is very short, and he needs large amounts of money very quickly. And outside groups can spend unlimited amounts whereas individual contributions that come to him are restricted in amount."
Ed Markey has a lot more money than Gabriel Gomez Does at this point. As of April 10, Markey had 4.6 million dollars of cash on hand, and Gomez had 500 thousand. But the question is, will the national Republican players decide to invest in Gomez's candidacy? Pam Wilmot says if they do, and the candidates don't sign the pledge, voters should be ware:
"Big donors are going to be putting a lot more money in our elections, and that means they're going to have a lot more chits to call in once one of those candidates is elected."
Wilmot says that's the big problem. It isn't just the election, but what happens after the election. And the people's pledge she says is the best way right now to limit big money in politics.

The Walking Dead season finale
. I think the season was kind of a let down from past seasons.
Since several people were expressing love for Bill Murray last week, thought I'd post these photos from the Caddyshack tournament showing how made a veteran's evening the best in a while. Random Act of MurrayReplyCancel
I thought the finale was spot on, since we are left in anticipation as to what exactly is Terminus?ReplyCancel
I thought it was a good episode, but not for a finale. They spent so much time following the individual characters with not much happening in each episode that I feel they could have condensed the 6 or so episodes where not much happened into 3 or 4 and then progressed the Terminus story line a little further instead of giving us a big middle finger and laughing at us now that we have to wait until late Oct/early Nov for new episodes to show us what exactly is going to happen at Terminus. As a good friend described – it's like having tv blue balls for 6 months. Not fun.ReplyCancel
Comic book fans don't even know about Terminus, it's something they added to the show.ReplyCancel
@Sara "tv blue balls" –HA!
I like your friend's phrase.
I really enjoyed the finale. I guess it's the type of finale I expect from TWD. The letdown in the second half of the season for me was not having everyone together, but it made sense and allowed some of the actors a chance to shine.ReplyCancel
I think on par for walking dead season finale. Showing the prison in one last finale, getting off the farm in another is similar to leaving us with the terminus people as next challenge. With exception of Andrea, big deaths of Shane, Dale, Lori, Herscel etc never occurred in season finale-too easy set up to "expect" major death in last ep.ReplyCancel
Finally!! (Been waiting all morning for a Walking Dead thread! Ha! I thought it was good! I'm glad the old Rick is back! Have seen some other info about this Terminus..ReplyCancel
They r cannibles(sp)ReplyCancel
WAy too many filler episodes this season. When you have 16 eppies a year every one should be perfect.
From what I have read Terminus is a combination of the comics The Hunters who were tracking cannibals and the video game a Farm which while seems inviting is really a family of cannibals. Both are a pretty horrible
group to be caught up in. Seems like they have made them a cult of cannibals. Like Scientologists but with really creepy eating habits.
The only thing I will take away this season is 'don't look at the flowers' and finally Rick rising back up to be a bad ass that kicks ass (and chews necks).
Looking more forward to Game of Thrones, Orphan Black, Mad Men and True Blood's final season this spring/summer.ReplyCancel
Question about Orphan Black – I just started getting into it and I'm like 5 or 6 episodes in but they only show them on Sundays (two epi's @ a time) and I want to be caught up by the 19th – does anyone know if they are doing a marathon? I watch it on BBC America. Much appreciated! 🙂ReplyCancel
I disagree somewhat Enty. I loved it. Especially when he gutted that nasty pedo. My bf had to calm me down cause I did a victory shout. I totally got that. He went into a prehistoric black rage and that totally made him my hero. Anyone messes with your loved ones that is what they deserve imo.
The last scenes could have been better but oh well. Its still one of my favorite shows.ReplyCancel
I thought it was a great season finale. And watching Rick go medieval on Joe's group was intense. Nice to see he's finally at peace with doing what's necessary. Very interested to see how they're gonna get out of the pickle they've gotten themselves into. Gonna be a looooooong wait til October. TV blue balls indeed!!ReplyCancel
The Mr. Told me, then we saw
The bones on that blue tarp! Omg! Glad Carol and tyreese not there I hope! It's going to be forever til oct!
I felt this last half of the season was more of a return to form. I lived it, having said that, I LOATHE the trend of splitting up seasons….
What did happen to Beth? Think I missed that ep, she cark it??
The last ep with Carole and the two girls made me weep like a baby….
I love TWD but this season pissed me right off.
Loads of episodes of whispering whingers looking at fires and going round in circles in a forest.
They could have moved it along.
I knew Terminus was gonna be full of cannibals. I said it weeks ago.
I hope the next season is a bit more action packed.
I think the finale was overall very well done, but the ending felt more like a let down, largely in part due to how fucking AWESOME that middle fight scene was! It's hard to top, let alone match that intensity. Rick's move was really unexpected, which is something I think the audience really needed.
That being said, I do miss a lot of the earlier themes that were a big chunk of the first two seasons. Back then, it was really interesting to see how TWD dissected some fundamental concepts, such as the right to die, human agency and personal outlooks on life and others (and walkers) in general. However, I also appreciate that they are trying to push the show in a new direction thematically by instead looking at the limits of human resiliency and compassion.
In any case, love TWD and they have the best writing team out there right now. I've been lucky enough to attend some events for the writers of TWD and BrBa. Those. Fucking. Geniuses.
Anyways, here are some Daryl memes to hold us over until our next Dix(on) fix:
So awesome!ReplyCancel
Well said Lady H! I'm a new fan to TWD, watched first three seasons in three days, this season on marathon before finale, still so pumped I might go back and watch it from beginning! I'm hooked! I'm glad they didn't kill off Rick, I heard rumors so was too glad he was alive at the end and back to his old ass kicking self! Oh and thanks for the Daryl pics!:)ReplyCancel
Someone in an old Cadillac took her, Daryl didn't get to her in time.ReplyCancel
They got rid of Lori and Andrea, so everything has been gravy for me! I thought there were too many flashbacks and since the season is split, the big episode (major death of a character) happens mid-season now. As long as I can see Rick, Daryl, and Michonee, I'm happy.ReplyCancel
Best season and great finale, IMO. They did a great job developing every character this season and giving them a story, which makes a show great overall. Finale was also amazing, because it showed a great progression from Rick-the-leader to Rick-the-Farmer and back to Rick-the-leader again. I don't mind the cliffhanger either, makes me look forward to October even more.
I really don't get why people complain about nothing happening, because I think a lot had happened this season and it shouldn't be all about killing zombies. The show has a great storyline and characters, if it was just about smashing up some zombies, it would be boring and stupid.

Mike Glover's Bluejays
Mancos High School boys basketball coach starts fresh in 2nd season
By Bobby Abplanalp
Journal Sports Editor
Replacing a legendary coach is never easy.
Mike Glover took the Mancos High School boys basketball job last year.
The Bluejays made the district playoffs with a core group of 2012 seniors that played for longtime MHS coach Gary Hill.
This season, the Bluejays are a relatively young team. But many of the boys have been playing together since elementary school under coach Glover.
Now those kids are a good group of freshmen and sophomores.
These boys are definitely Glover's Bluejays.
"I've just got a really good group of kids. I really do," he said. "The freshmen and sophomore group, I've worked with them since they were third and fourth graders. It's nice to all be in the same gym again."
Sophomore point guard Nigel Henry is back to run the offense. He showed his explosiveness to score last year. But the coach feels he has matured and can indeed run an offense.
"Nigel is a special player. There's no doubt about it," Glover said. "He works harder than anybody I know. I see him shooting all the time. I'm looking forward to another season with him."
Senior post Branson Mitchell is back to clean up the glass. He led the team in rebounds last season. Sharpshooting senior Wyatt Cox will look to open things up more offensively. Fellow senior guard Colton Miller will see plenty of minutes. But overall, Mancos is a youthful squad.
"We may be young, but basketball IQ wise, I think these kids are there," Glover said.
Junior Kyle Cox should compete for a starting role. Sophomores Jaden Peacock, Brandon Hood and Daniel Christensen, and freshmen Kye Glover and Ro Paschal will be heavy hitters in coach Glover's system.
"These kids play well as a team. It's a really unselfish team," Mike Glover said. "I think they understand the importance of teamwork. They're dedicated, they're beating down the doors, they're ready to get in there."
The Bluejays gained a lot of experience over the summer, playing a total of 42 games at various camps.
More unofficial games take place today in New Mexico at Farmington High School.
The regular season officially begins next Friday at Ouray, in what will count as a nonconference game. Both schools were short a game and scheduled each other.
The Bluejays return home to host the Mancos Winter Classic on Dec. 7-8. The four-team tourney also includes New Mexico schools Aztec and Shiprock Northwest, and Dove Creek, who resurrected its boys basketball program.
"It should be fun and competitive," said Mike Glover about his home tourney. "I'm hoping next year, it will turn into an eight-team tournament."
San Juan Basin League play begins Dec. 15, at home versus Nucla. Everyone is aware the road to a league title has gone through Ignacio.
Mike Glover feels his team will contend for a league championship this season.
"Expectations are high," he said. "This is the year we thought we could really start leaving our mark. The boys are really pumped and they've worked hard."
Tip off in Ouray is Friday night at 7 p.m.

If you didn't believe fall weather was here the past two weeks, you certainly had any doubts removed in Week 7.
A frigid Friday featured all five of our local teams in action. Sycamore essentially clinched a postseason berth while Hiawatha and Genoa-Kingston saw their postseason dreams come to an end. Here's the breakdown from all of the action on the gridiron.
Sycamore 26, Rochelle 14: Sycamore emphatically ended a two-game home losing streak with a solid performance against a good Rochelle squad. The Spartans got their fifth victory and will have more than enough playoff points to qualify. Austin Culton was huge, carrying the ball 31 times for 188 yards and two touchdowns. They will go into next week's game against Kaneland with a little more confidence.
North Boone 21, Genoa-Kingston 14: G-K's playoff dreams ended with North Boone's second-half rally. G-K led by seven points, but once again couldn't hang on to a lead after halftime. Not many people gave ther Cogs a chance against one of the BNC East's better teams, but the Cogs had an opportunity to win. It's a disappointing finish for a group that has had a number of close calls this season.
Alden-Hebron 44, Hiawatha 19: Alden-Hebron was under-manned, but not over-matched on the road against the Hawks. Similar to G-K, Hiawatha needed to win out for a chance at the postseason. That didn't happen so the Hawks' streak of not making the playoffs continues another year. The last time Hiawatha made the playoffs was 1987.
Morris 56, DeKalb 27: The Barbs got out to a 7-0 lead after the opening possession, but that was far from enough. Morris responded with seven touchdowns in the first half and won going away. As with previous games, you can see the athleticism and flashes of talent with this Barbs team, but they are consistently overmatched against the vaunted NI Big 12 East.
Kaneland 55, Yorkville 0: What more is there to say about Kaneland? The Knight train keeps on rollin'. They have effectively erased any doubts that people may have had after the first two weeks of the season. Two more game separate Kaneland from another undefeated regular season and I doubt there are many that will bet against them.

01 Apr 2011 00:38
It's hard to choose
but it would be non-fiction. Possibly even a photo book such as 'Decade' or 'Century'.
If I had to choose a (short) novel, it would be Notes From Underground by Dostoyevsky.
Maybe a music-related book such as 'Revolution in the Head' by Ian McDonald, about the Beatles.
So that's 4 favourites.
01 Apr 2011 03:51
uh huh
I LOVE it too and anyone that loves it as well becomes an instant friend!
I remember 1st seeing the mini series made for tv when I was approximately 14 and fell in love with Mr Darcy since lol. Ever since then I think Ive read the book 11 times, and of course watched the one with Colin firth in it when it came out. I love Cathrine Cookson too.........not sure if you have heard of her?
I go through phases. I like insipid and/or historical fictional novels for a couple of months and then for the following couple of months I have to have cold hard factual non fiction books..............usually metaphysical or medical jargon :)

The second to the last paragraph says more about the reviewer than the festival [ Performance Review, "Ladies' Night," Jan. 21-27]. Though, it might seem to Christie Chisolm that sexism is not present in theatre (professional or community), it is alive and well.
There is no even playing field. Plays by women are far less produced than plays by men. Plays by women are expected to have greater ticket sales in order to stay in performance as long as those by men. Plays about women are given the label "Woman's Play" (which is not a compliment) and shoved into a drawer.
Of course, there would be strange looks if someone declared a "Men's Theatre Festival", but no one bats an eyelash when ALT declares an entire season of plays all written by men.
The institution of American Theatre is skewed toward men. Festivals and theatre companies that support women's work are sometimes the only way these stories are told. These are the theatres that are worth supporting.
I've always agreed 100 percent with Mr. Ortiz y Pino, so I find this post discouraging [ Ortiz Y Pino, "The Audacity of Soap," Jan. 21-27]. Things have gone very sour in one year, yet everyone forgets the absolute shit-hole that Obama rescued us from after eight years of Bush/Cheney. Perhaps he's been slow to do some things, but jeez, we were in an absolute shit-hole a year ago, nothing to do with Obama, and everyone is judging him on the state of affairs today, without recognizing where we came from. Please have hope, all you would-be deserters. Imagine where we'd be today with McCain/Palin? (I shudder)
[Re: Blog, "NM Blogosphere Roundup: Los Poblanos, ABQ Public Sprawl, hating on the Rail Runner, UrbanABQ 2009"] I like how someone named the NM Libertarians the "We Got Ours" party. It's pretty fitting seeing that they seem to bitch about anything thats for the common good and things that help low-income families. I watched several news pieces on the Rail Runner (and read a couple more), every time the reporter asked Rail Runner riders if they were willing to pay more to keep the train going, they all said they were down. So there you go Paul, your question has been answered. I'm just wondering when he starts campaigning against highways, libraries, and community centers because those damn things aren't making us any money either. Better get rid of em quick ....

Skip to comments.St. Lucie County had 304 uncounted votes, official says
Posted on 11/16/2012 5:16:28 PM PST by smoothsailing
November 16, 2012
Johnathan Mattise
At least 304 early votes in St. Lucie County were not counted, according to a Florida elections official during early voting at a canvassing board meeting Friday night.
David Drury, head of the Division of Elections Bureau of Voting Systems Certifications also made a recommendation that the board re-run every early vote. The board will discuss that after running the 304 votes. It took about four hours to run the military and overseas ballots, which needed to be transferred by hand.
The board is preparing to run 304 ballots that were not counted.
Two attorneys are petitioning the Florida Secretary of State for a recount of every vote cast in Martin, St. Lucie and Palm Beach counties in the tightly contested District 18 race, which favored Patrick Murphy over U.S. Rep. Allen West.
Attorneys Jeffrey Scott Shapiro of Boca Raton and Mark Young of West Palm Beach sent out the request. Both have previously volunteered for West's campaign. However, West campaign manager Tim Edson said the attorneys sent the petition independent of West's team.
Drip, drip, drip.

The real question now becomes can the 'chain of custody' of the ballots be trusted with all these ballots here/there, etc.?
I am so thankful he has not conceded!
Regardless of the outcome, this just shows how absurdly our voting process is managed. The fact that we go through this stuff year after year without addressing the problems is just embarrassing. I am hoping Allen West becomes a vocal leader on this issue.
Exactly what Romney should be doing too.

UPDATE: ALLEN WEST BEST ON THE GROUND: On the phone with Gary Angelo Galiano - 304 Ballots they found in a box somewhere PLUS AT LEAST another 304 more now. The public is going on, back and forth, attorneys, etc, there is still a box of over a 1000 ballots still missing they are "trying to find" EVERYONE IS SCREAMING and YELLING AND ARGUING, it is flawed and out of control. The state representative has recommended a FULL RECOUNT but the canvassing authority has to approve that. Everyone is yelling WE WANT A FULL RECOUNT!!!!!
Prayer up.....for Allen West and his lawyers
Does anyone know if he is in need of anything? Does he need financial support to see this through? I want to help!
Anybody check the janitor's closet and the "lady parts" restroom? I'll bet there are more boxes in there.
BTTT! Because he's not folding like a dishrag.
Thanks for the link! I just made a contribution and will continue to do so each week until this is resolved.
Can't the GOP legaly put up the money
to pay for a recount of the whole district.
Just pay and get it done with instead of
screwing around..Ed
Uplifting and inspiring. This man must be the speaker of the house!
I would not celebrate yet. Dems pull this stuff all the time in close elections. They keep finding additional votes to keep their candidate on top. Do you want to bet that most of these votes are for the Dem?
Agreed...Allen West would make a great Speaker.
Don't worry, I'm just happy about the increasing possibility of a full recount. This is still a long way from over.
As you say, Dems pull this stuff all the time. But ask yourself, how often do they go up against an Allen West?
What are all these boxes of votes they are finding??? Retabulating 20,000 more??? are these the same ones they did or what??? Someone needs to send Gerty into retirement
let me guess here- ONLY votes in West's race will be counted, and none of the other contests will be re-tallied?
Surviving foreign totalitarian enemies to face domestic totalitarian enemies.
music to read this election by...
True. West did not just fold up and concede like a lot of repub candidates do.
He is fighting back, and best of all he is speaking up loudly and often.. which is rare for repubs.
The public should see a conservative black man being held down by the Dems.

But, but, he's an Uncle Tom and off the plantation. These people make me sick. He's more black than the liar-in-chief and was down for the struggle. I'm so fed up with the black community and their stupidity - I could barf.
According to the Facebook site, it is true!

We must fight election fraud.
It falls on We the People.
Silence is consent
What most refuse to acknowledge is that it was unlikely that ANYBODY could have beaten the voter fraud planned and perpetrated by the Obama machine. They seem to prefer pointing fingers, blaming Romney and blathering on about Patraeus' sex life.

These elections are NOT certified yet. The only way to get this investigated, much less recounted or overturned, is through the Secretary of State of each of the five key states: Florida, Virginia, Ohio, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin.

We can not wait for 2014 and 2016 to regroup and figure out new strategies. By then it will be too late. The Marxist/Muslim usurper will have completed his planned distruction of America. That's what people fail to understand.
We must act NOW.
Start with the election. If we let the Rats get away with this massive voter fraud, we're no better than a bananna republic.
We must keep digging and pounding him every day, in every way we can- phony birth certificate, Benghazi, Fast and Furious, his hidden life, records....
We are FReepers. We must fight!
Those who shrug and accept this atrocity without a fight are not worthy to be called Freepers!

This is the opportunity the GOP has in the black community....I believe millions of blacks have no voice in this country, because any independent thinking is immediately slammed down by the Democratic Orthodoxy, but the Republicans don't reach out to this group....they feel like nobody represents them, so they remain quiet. These are the people the GOP needs to grab, but that would require Republican leadership going out of their "comfort zone."
What you can do:
These elections are NOT certified yet. The only way to get this investigated, much less recounted or overturned, is through the Secretary of State of each of the five key states: Florida, Virginia, Ohio, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin. EVEN IF YOU ARE IN ANOTHER STATE you can help. But it wont do any good to dilute our effort to challenge California or Michigan or other states. Until a major group gets involved to do more, here is the plan:
Contact the Secretary of State of the state in question. (See contact information below. Please provide others in COMMENTS.)
Send them the press clippings, or personal testimonials of clear vote fraud witnessed. (Statistical aberrations are helpful too like a historical 50% turnout in 2004, 2008 but a 90% turnout in a specific precinct despite an overall LOWER state turnout.)
Demand a public recount AND investigation, with a commitment to fight to replace THEM in the next election if they do not do so.
Email/Phone/Visit EVERY WEEK if not EVERY DAY. This will take weeks of steady pressure to get them to move.
Get your friends and neighbors to do the same.
Contact the OTHER 4 states to do the same as above.
Contact the Governor and the local GOP office with the SAME pressure.
(List of web contacts for each below)
If you are in those states (or know people who are) start attempting to find OTHERS with evidence of fraud. See if you can identify the precinct judges where the statistical aberations occur to pass along to the True the Vote which is set up to sue these entities with Judicial Watch.
Try to visit (or call) your local representative asking for their help to put pressure on. It doesnt hurt that if they dont or wont you make it your goal to find and fund a challenger to them for allow open and honest elections the fabric of freedom in this country to not only go unchallenged, but to institutionalized.
Contact your city, state and national media to keep this story alive as well. (Fox News has an email just for this at firstname.lastname@example.com)
Help us find, fund or coordinate willing lawyers, statisticians, pollsters and activists.
I can not reiterate enough that if this is NOT CHALLENGED NOW, we will could loose the House of Representatives in 2014 and possibly every election forward to massive voter fraud. Imagine Harry Reid and Nancy Pelosi reenacting the first two years of Obamas reign with more Stimulus, Cash for Cars, Solyndras and ObamaCares.
This fight can not be put off for another election cycle or another day. Or there will no longer be a constitutional America. Put down your foot and make the declaration, THIS VOTE FRAUD WILL NOT STAND!

Gertrude couldn't stand the heat...
WTH can't they just count every valid vote just once?
This could trigger a full recount
Before this is over, I bet they find several bags of lost ballots that all are for Algore and we will find out that he actually won Florida after all. But, in a triple recount, the hanging chads will determine that Algore won Florida by 5 million votes and should have been president. The Socialist Senate of Amerika will then determine that Algore will be appointed dictator in chief for eight years after Premier Obama is done because Algore got cheated out of his eight years. No elections in 2016 or 2020.
If this black woman who had these 304 ballots in her office, actually withheld them because they were Allen West votes, she should go to jail! This kind of stuff happens everywhere, Philly, Cleveland, all the major cities. There is NO supervision and our elections have been compromised.
sign and circulate...
Ten to one, Gertrude is black. She's sick now, in the hospital. I wonder why. Does she know her goose is cooked. She should go to jail for this.
Blacks just moved from the slave plantation to the Democrat plantation. They seem to enjoy slavery and don't like it when one of their own decides to leave the plantation and strike out on his own. I believe this entire election was stolen, just like St Lucie Co. I would hope we could do a recount of Philly and Cleveland, and all major cities where blacks run the process. They celebrated the fact that they finally got the right to vote, then promptly proceeded to cheat, lie, and deceive to get their desired result. I say, take the vote back from them. They are not worthy of responsible voting. When one race votes over 90% for one candidate, they are not thinking. They are voting race! So, who are the real racists here?
Allen West might make a great Speaker if his colleagues would consider him, but we surely know who does not make a great Speaker!
The late Jack F. Kemp has already been there and done that, and it made absolutely no difference mathematically.
This is the great ground game the MSM always says the DIMS have in the key states.
Amen to that!
This man is truly inspirational, not only to blacks but EVERONE. Never stop, fight to win. Amazing character. MLK should be proud.

A material once made from actual turtle shells, the tortoiseshell we know today (the variety made from plastic rather than an endangered species) hit its apex in the '60s and '70s, when jet-set ladies paired tortoiseshell accessories with gold chains and airy resort wear. This season, the caramel hue is seeing a renaissance, with Marc Jacobs and Yves Saint Laurent sunglasses, Michael Kors watches, and Kenneth Jay Lane jewelry.
I picked up the KJL necklace pictured to wear with a breezy white sundress and flat K. Jacques sandals. How will you wear tortoiseshell this summer?

Shot on location in the New Mexico desert outside Gallup and throughout the Navajo Nation, including parts of Arizona and Utah, the film provided unique challenges for Cinematographer Vincent Pascoe and Associate Producer Christina Jo'Leigh, who also was the second unit DP on the project. Pascoe used two prosumer cameras from Panasonic –– the HVX200 HD camcorder and the GH1 DSLR. "One of the reasons we used the GH1 was its small size and light weight," says Leigh. "This enabled us to take the camera into areas where we never could have otherwise gone with some 50-pound camera loaded down with heavy lenses. It was also the first DSLR to shoot 24p at full 1080p resolution, which was very important for us."
The GH1 recorded in AVCHD, making it easy to just drop the footage into Adobe Premiere and Avid systems. The production used a program called NeoScene from Cineform to transcode the footage. "Because the hotel we were staying at had TVs equipped with HDMI connectors in the rooms, we just connected our cameras to the TV set in our room to watch dailies," Pascoe explains. "In the film's trailer [which can be seen online at http://www.vimeo.com/7122045] there are several scenes where we cut back and forth between footage shot on the HVX and the DSLR that melded seamlessly." While the film itself has yet to be completed, the often stunning high-def images shown in the trailer dramatically demonstrate the high-quality footage inexpensive cameras are now capable of.
Pascoe used the Redrock Micro lens adapter on the HVX so he could work with his collection of Nikon lenses. A 4/3-inch Olympus mount enabled him to shoot with the same Nikon lenses on the GH1, so there was a consistency in the glass used. "A lot of times Christina and I were the only crew other than the director and sound person," says Pascoe. "Since it was just us, it was often a challenge doing things like racking focus and operating. One of our locations was a three-hour drive from Gallup followed by a lengthy hike into the canyon through very hard terrain where I couldn't carry bulky cases." This was where the GH1 really proved its worth to the DP. Another advantage was the GH1's resilience in the desert heat. "The GH1 never overheated, unlike some of the other cameras I've used," Pascoe notes.
Pascoe and Jo'Leigh used a pair of 16 GB SDHC cards, each of which stored up to two hours of footage, which proved to be a huge advantage over the HVX, which uses P2 cards for storage. The maximum running time for the P2 cards that Pascoe used was much briefer than the SDHC cards, which meant they had to swap out cards much more frequently.
On a human level, one of the things that most impressed both Pascoe and Leigh was working with the Navajo Nation. "The Navajo are a deeply spiritual people," says Leigh. "It is that spirituality that unites them. Every single day we were there, there was a medicine man present on set. Our day began with everyone sitting cross-legged in a circle while the medicine man would chant in Navajo followed by a ritual that was intended to make sure your words and thoughts were holy and that you gave an offering to the Holy Spirit." Some of the prayers were used to encourage good weather –– and, on several occasions, threatening weather politely halted until production wrapped for the day and everyone was safely indoors.
Overall, Leigh is grateful for the opportunity to experience the Navajo Nation firsthand: "The incredible generosity of the Navajo people was something I hope everyone has a chance to experience at some point in their lives. The way that they welcomed us into their culture and lives is an experience I'll always carry with me. It absolutely changed me."

Before he was old enough to have a drivers license, Michael Phelps had a world record. Before he ever took a college class or turned 20, he had earned distinction by winning 8 medals—6 gold and 2 bronze—at the Athens Olympics, the most in non-boycotted Games. Along the way, he captivated an American television audience and confounded the critics who questioned his ambition.
Amazing Pace:
• provides the most revealing look yet at a young man who became a world-class athlete before he had the chance to grow up—by respected Baltimore Sun journalist Paul McMullen, who followed Phelpss rise from an obscure 14-year-old to the most scrutinized competitor at the worlds biggest sporting event
• details the plotting of his career, from turning professional at age 16, to the management of the first crises he encountered Paul McMullens 5 years of observation add dramatic context to the life of a young athlete whose rise to prominence coincided with the tumult of the first Summer Olympics after 9/11. No Olympian has ever earned 10 gold medals in a career, but Michael Phelps is on pace to achieve that milestone at the 2008 Games in Beijing, China.

Well. Hi there... I sent a resume that you suggested..
thanks again
enjoy the weekend.. take care
Thank you! May the same phrase pertain to you as well! May you be an angel to those who need one at that moment and time!
Thank you for the tag. You are most kind. You will do well in whatever you lay your hands on and keep your mind on doing.
Thank you!
Seems like a lot of people are going online to continue their education. You will do well, just keep the faith and don't lose hope. You will do well as long as you stay in faith, hope, and love. God bless you, my sister.
Taking it easy, thank you. Taking each day as it comes. All going well with you?
Because my husband was let go back in October, the meds that I was taking were expensive and had to be changed. Just getting a little longer than usual to getting used to the new ones. Just love going to the lab and giving blood! :)
