GDB 42: The battle rages on
January 13 2009 03:38PM
Look at this picture that we were sent by a reader of the Nation. It's so sweet that merely looking at it gave us a case of Type-II diabetes. Apparently it's a baby yoga class chock-a-block with Oilers fans of the future just waiting to learn to read and write so they can come on here and yell at Robin Brownlee. But don't let those babies fool you –- they will gouge out your eyes given half a chance.
There are things you know in life, Nation, and there are things that you don't know. We all know where the Oil are in the standings right now, the 1,305,349 things that are wrong with the team and the 2,406,540 things that could be done to fix them. We'll spare you reading another paragraph about any of these matters going into the game tonight.
Instead we give you an option.
You can read about the Capitals here or you can read a list of 10 interesting facts that we guarantee you didn't already know. You choose, Nation –- it's your life.
10 important facts you didn't already know
- The dot over the letter "i" is called a tittle.
- A female ferret will die if it goes into heat and cannot find a mate.
- It is estimated that at any one time around 0.7% of the world's population is drunk.
- On average, 12 newborns will be given to the wrong parents every day somewhere in the world.
- John Wilkes Booth's brother once saved the life of Abraham Lincoln's son.
- About 200,000,000 M&Ms are sold each day in the United States.
- The first bomb the Allies dropped on Berlin in WWII killed the only elephant in the Berlin Zoo.
- If you put a drop of liquor on a scorpion, it will instantly go mad and sting itself to death.
- Charlie Chaplin once won third prize in a Charlie Chaplin look-alike contest.
- Every year, four people in the UK die putting their trousers on.
You're welcome society.
The Oil will be joined by 150 Canadian Soldiers who are being honored at the Verizon Centre, along with Corporal Mark Fuchko, Master Corporal Colin A. Johnston and Corporal James Ryan Douglas who flew with the Oilers to Washington. That's 15 kinds of classy Oil. Well done.

MOLEN-Our loving father and longtime friend, Tony Carlisle Conder, age 69, passed away Feb. 14, 2013 at Beehive Homes in Elmo where he resided the past four years. He was born March 9, 1943 in Provo, Utah to John "Jack" Carlisle Conder and Mana Hayes.
Tony was raised in Provo, attended junior high in Helper and graduated from Bountiful High School in 1961. After graduation, he served in the Southern Far East Mission Field from 1963-1965. After returning from his mission, Tony attended BYU and shortly thereafter was drafted into the US Army. He honorably served his country in Vietnam from 11/6/1968-8/15/1970. Once discharged, he returned to BYU and received a Bachelors in Mandarin Chinese with a minor in Asian Studies.
On Feb. 2, 1990, he married Gaylene Winder in Molen, Utah and they had three wonderful children. Their marriage was solemnized in the Manti LDS Temple; they later divorced.
Tony was employed with Utah Power and Light at the Hunter Plant where he was an Instrument and Controls Technician. He worked for UP&L for 35 years, and after retiring in 1999 he expanded his hobby farm of Polled Hereford's into an Elk Ranch in Molen. Tony had a special love for the outdoors and this was one way that he could bring the wildlife to him. He loved bird hunting, fly fishing and his most memorable times were just relaxing and enjoying the solitude of the great outdoors.
His biggest and proudest accomplishments were his children. He was loved by all and will be sorely missed.
The family would like to thank Beehive Homes, the Skelley Family and staff for their extraordinary care of Tony.
Survived by two daughters and one son, Tawny Conder, Orangeville, John Conder, Provo, and Sidnee Conder of Castle Dale; his sister, Carlyn (Kurt) Auernig, Bountiful.
He was preceded in death by his parents.
Funeral service, Monday, Feb. 18, 2013, 11:30 a.m., Ferron LDS Stake Center. Family was at the church Sunday evening from 6-8 p.m. and Monday at 10 a.m. Interment, Molen Cemetery with military honors accorded by the Ferron American Legion Post # 42.
Arrangements entrusted to Mitchell Funeral Home of Price where friends are always welcome daily and may share memories of Tony at www.mitchellfuneralhome.net.

The strap is very stiff and loose, hits/digs into your ankle with every step. I took 25-30 steps and couldn't believe how uncomfortable they are around the ankle."

We built a Craftsman style home with beautiful wood wrap around the windows. These blinds were perfect! The easy install compression design was just what I needed the blinds look great and are very secure. I bought the room darkening shades and they are also great insulators. We immediately felt a difference in the warmth of the bedrooms where they're installed. I'm saving up for more.View this product

Hi Terry,
I am planning on putting a bathroom downstairs in my basement. My toilet can be installed right over an existing sewer line, the problem i have is that I want to install a corner tub and a standup shower and was wondering how i should do the drainage. Will I have to cut into the slab or do i have enough room to raise the floor. Which will be cheaper and less time consuming?. I would really appreciate any advice that you can offer. Your site rock's, keep up the good work. I tell all my friends about your website.
Thank you,

By GARY ARRINGTONSports writer
After experiencing two losses by narrow margins the previous week, the youthful Spartans won three straight games. On Tuesday last week, Emery traveled to Heber City and came back with 54-47 win. On Friday and Saturday last week in the eight-team tournament held at the school, Emery first defeated Canyon View 51-46 and then defeated Uintah 63-54.
Senior Dave Justice led the team in scoring each game and is playing a controlled point guard position as he leads the team. Justice has a deceptively quick step to the basket and scores well in traffic inside the lane. He had 17 points, 21 points and 20 points in the three games.
Against Wasatch, Emery used a big fourth quarter to snare the win. It was 14-9 for Wasatch after the first period, 24-17 for Wasatch at the half, 38-34 for Wasatch after three periods but a 20-9 final period for the Spartans got them the victory. In that final period, Justice had 3 baskets and was 1 for 2 at the free throw line for 7 points. Sophomore Karson Jensen went 6 for 6 at the free throw line for his only points of the game. Jordan Gee hit 2 free throws, Gatlin Huntington was 3 for 4 at the line and Kyler Edgehouse hit a basket.
It was another good fourth quarter that got Emery the win over Canyon View. After leading 13-6 at the end of the first period, Emery was outscored by 8 points in the second quarter and Emery trailed 33-32 after the third period. Emery outscored the Falcons 19-13 in the final quarter. Justice had 3 baskets and was 5 for 5 at the line for 11 points in the quarter. Dempsey Jeffs hit two shots, one a 3-pointer and Gee hit a 3-pointer also in that quarter.
And why spoil a good thing when it appears that it is working. Again, against Uintah it was the fourth quarter where the Spartans grabbed the win. Emery trailed by 3 after the first period, led by 3 at the half and led by one after three periods. Emery outscored the Utes 19-11 in the final quarter to get their third in a row. This time the final period belonged to Karson Jensen. Jensen was again 6 for 6 at the free throw line and also hit two long jump shots to finish with 10 points in the period. Jeffs had a basket, Justice was 3 for 4 at the line, and Huntington and Edgehouse also each had a basket in the period.
With this being Emery's youngest basketball team in many years, maybe forever, nobody was quite sure what was to be expected out of this group of players. After five games, it is safe to say that this team should be in the hunt every time they take the floor. They appear to have about eight different players that play good defense and can also score when opportunity knocks. They each have different roles to play and each is working hard to be successful.
Also scoring against Wasatch was Nevin Jensen with 2 points, Jeffs with 8 points, Gee with 7 points, Huntington and Jensen with 6 points, Edgehouse with 5 points and Tyler Killpack with 4 points.
Also scoring against the Falcons was Nevin with 3 points, Jeffs with 11 points, Gee with 5 points, Edgehouse with 3 points, Killpack with 2 points and Karson with 6 points.
Also scoring against Uintah was Karson with 14 points and Edgehouse with 13 points, Jeffs had 6 points, Killpack had 4 points and Nevin and Huntington each had 3 points.
Emery is home Tuesday hosting Grand at 7:00pm and JV action starts at 5:30. Emery travels to Hurricane and Pine-view on Thursday and Friday.

Skip to comments.Secretary Geithner Sends Debt Limit Letter to Congress
Posted on 12/26/2012 9:34:07 PM PST by Celerity
Today, Secretary Geithner sent the following letter to Congress regarding the debt limit.
December 26, 2012
The Honorable Harry Reid
Majority Leader
United States Senate
Washington, DC 20510
Dear Mr. Leader:
I am writing to inform you that the statutory debt limit will be reached on December 31, 2012, and to notify you that the Treasury Department will shortly begin taking certain extraordinary measures authorized by law to temporarily postpone the date that the United States would otherwise default on its legal obligations.
These extraordinary measures, which are explained in detail in an appendix to this letter, can create approximately $200 billion in headroom under the debt limit. Under normal circumstances, that amount of headroom would last approximately two months. However, given the significant uncertainty that now exists with regard to unresolved tax and spending policies for 2013, it is not possible to predict the effective duration of these measures. At this time, the extent to which the upcoming tax filing season will be delayed as a result of these unresolved policy questions is also uncertain. If left unresolved, the expiring tax provisions and automatic spending cuts, as well as the attendant delays in filing of tax returns, would have the effect of adding some additional time to the duration of the extraordinary measures. Treasury will provide more guidance regarding the expected duration of these measures when the policy outlook becomes clearer.
Timothy F. Geithner
Identical letter sent to:
The Honorable John A. Boehner, Speaker of the House
The Honorable Nancy Pelosi, House Democratic Leader
The Honorable Mitch McConnell, Senate Republican Leader
cc: The Honorable Dave Camp, Chairman, House Committee on Ways and Means
The Honorable Sander M. Levin, Ranking Member, House Committee on Ways and Means
The Honorable Max Baucus, Chairman, Senate Committee on Finance
The Honorable Orrin Hatch, Ranking Member, Senate Committee on Finance
All other Members of the 112th Congress
Matt Anderson is a Spokesperson at the U.S. Department of the Treasury.
Thinly veiled threat ? Ambiguous news that we're about to collapse ?
January 1st ?
This is shocking news. Either receipts are collapsing or spending is spiraling or both.
Not shocking at all. It has been predicted for some time. You can track it month by month and see that it would happen this year or early next year.
Some time that it was going to hit Jan1?
Looks like anyone expecting to get a tax refund might be SOL.
This crap just will not end, we are screwed here unless something happens very soon.
Good. The more the merrier.
Shut it down.
We have known for some time that we are accumulating debt at over $1 trillion annually since Obama took office. It should come as no surprise that we are hitting the debt limit again after the deal almost two years ago. From press reports:
If approved by Congress, the deal will increase the nation's debt ceiling by at least $2.1 trillion overall while cutting about that much in government spending over the next 10 years, Obama and congressional leaders said. The debt ceiling would not need to be raised again until 2013.
Did Geithner explain why it was that he ran out of money three months early? The Aug 2011 debt ceiling deal was supposed to carry us through March 2013. That deal was cut in exchange for $100 billion in spending cuts that never happened. Someone should tell Geithner to pound sand. Maybe he'll get the hint and begin laying off Treasury Dept employees.
"This letter states, as I interpret, that some paychecks are going to stop.
Good. The more the merrier."
This may mean no pay for our military people!
Hell, they may be such collectors' items as to be worth something. :-)
These 08 Bailout Babies, along with their Federal Lifers, aren't going to stop until everyone else pays but themselves. The same MO as Exempting themselves from Extortion Care. Stalkers of everyone elses assets (including paid in social security) but their own.
Fine, we will increase the debt limit (yet again). But first, let us remember that you, Pelosi, Reid, and your boss have spent Trillions of dollars in the most irresponsible manner in United States history. "Stimulus 1" was nothing more than political payoff to union goons, environmentalists pagans, and layabout lazies.
Next, reform Entitlements, which are breaking the back of this nation. Instead of spending 67% of every dollar (with 40 cents of THAT dollar borrowed) entitlement spending must be decreased in actual dollars. Moreover, the welfare payment side of entitlements MUST be cut by half, and that includes cutting off the "99ners", millions of phony "Disabled" who are sucking the Social Security system dry, welfare breeders, and illegals who have no right to America's tax dollars in the first place.
Finally, you will stop giving tax "rebates" in the form of the "Earned Income Tax Credit" to millions upon millions of Americans who pay no Federal income tax to begin with. Now.
The US Congress
ahhhhhhhh, this just gets better and better!
Every day is a new disaster!
Every day is a new disaster!
They'll get a chit.
The answer is simple: Pass a Bill in the House Abolishing the IRS and Obamacare and Attach a Debt Ceiling hike to it. Or JUST SAY NO.
This was the plan all along, and no one is really interested in stopping it except some crazy fiscal conservatives.
If people think this government will stop spending money it doesn't have, then I have some prime oceanfront real estate in Nevada to sell you.
Asset Sales
Although the U.S. Government owns other assets, such as gold, there are prudential or
legal limitations on its ability to sell these assets. Selling the Nations gold to meet payment
obligations would undercut confidence in the United States both here and abroad, and would be
extremely destabilizing to the world financial system.
Yeah, that probably is not an option because Ft. Knox probably doesn't hold any physical gold.
Or China evicts us.....
Which is why I cut the exemptions to the bare minimum back in May or so. Not expecting a tax refund, or a very small one at the most. I do NOT trust the government with my money. Why should I?
In about 5 days, once your messiah (lower case is intentional) pushes us off the fiscal cliff, you will have 460 Billion a year in new taxes with only 100 billion a year in actual spending cuts!!! Come on now Timmy, tell the truth. Makes your crotch all tingly and excited doesn't it? Your ho bitch Bernanke makes all the nasty bank mortgage loans you forced them to write go away and suddenly the banks are solvent. Who the hell cares that all those little people become more impoverished. Why at the rate you guys are going, the other 250 million not on food stamps soon will be.
The most absolute immoral thing government does is steal money from the many so the few can continue to sit on their butts. The poor in America are so well off compared to the poor in other countries, it is nearly incomprehensible. Do the poor in other countries get free cell phones, have multiple automobiles, have games consoles, personal computers or iPads, have multiple flat screen TVs ans cable, have indoor plumbing, access to clean water, a credit card to buy food not at the grocery store but every little convenience store in every corner and virtually free healthcare.
There are poor in America who are rich enough to make people still want to come here and.cash in on the gravy train.
This puts things into a much better perspective as to the present economic situation. and it took a person from Canada to do it !!!
Lesson # 1:
* U.S. Tax revenue: $ 2,170,000,000,000.00
* Fed budget: $ 3,820,000,000,000.00
* New debt: $ 1,650,000,000,000.00
* National debt: $ 14,271,000,000,000.00
* Recent budget cuts: $ $ 38,500,000,000.00
Let's now remove 8 zeros and pretend it's a household budget:
* Annual family income: $ 21,700.00
* Money the family spent: $ 38,200.00
* New debt on the credit card: $ 16,500.00
* Outstanding balance on the credit card: $ 142,710.00
* Total budget cuts so far: $ 38.50
Got It ?????
OK now,
Lesson # 2:
Here's another way to look at the Debt Ceiling:
Let's say, You come home from work and find
there has been a sewer backup in your neighborhood....
and your home has sewage all the way up to your ceilings.
What do you think you should do ......
Raise the ceilings, or remove the crap?
Never let a crisis go to waste. They all disgust me.
Here's another little shocker for Mr. Tiny Timmy Turbo: Self-employed people making $250K will now be taxed at 39% rate according to your beloved messiah. Add on another 15.3% (or more) for SS and Medicare. That makes a whopping 53.3% federal bite out of every dollar, and that's not counting any state taxes. Sad news, TTT, those folks are now pushed WAY over on the Laffer Curve and they are NOT going to just keep working for you and the messiah at those kinds of rates...ain't gonna happen, TTT. They are all going to cut back dramatically and/or just outright quit working at all.
It it gonna get worse, TTT, because they'll lay off, (if they haven't done so already) any employees they may have have in order get out from under your messiah's extortion healthcare plan. So you're gonna lose all those tax dollars too, TTT. Once that happens on a nationwide grand scale, your golden goose is dead, TTT, your "goose" is cooked!!!. You see, TTT, socialists, cheats and thieves such as yourself eventually run out of other people's money....and once that hard reality sets in on the "unwashed masses", those in DC, such as yourself, that were once entrusted by the "unwashed masses" to do the "right thing" will be held responsible in ways that you can't comprehend or even dream of.
Have you paid all your back taxes yet? You owe me a Social Security Check 1/9/2013.
Total budget cuts so far: $ none.
Total reduction in desired future spending increases mentioned: $38.50.

On Saturday, Dec. 11 Eastern Utah Men's basketball team played its first conference game of the season as they traveled to Colorado Northwestern Community College. It ended with a final score of EU 90- 67 over CNCC.
It didn't take Eastern long to establish the tempo of the game. By halftime the Eagles had a 14 point advantage with Brady Hurst and Jonathan Mills doing heavy damage in the paint.
This is EU's fourth win in a row and Coach Barton was pleased with the defensive effort that held CNCC to just 67 points.
Brady Hurst put up a a double/double with 27 points and 13 rebounds. Jonathan Mills recorded his ninth double/double of the season with 20 points and 14 rebounds. Trevor Bamgartner added 17 points and grabbed seven rebounds and four assists.
Earlier in the week Eastern Utah played the Utah All-Star team. The mode for the game was set on the very first offensive possession with Aaron Hawk-Harris throwing down a lob pass for a monster dunk. The Eagles were never really threatened by the All-Star team. Seven Players score in double digits with Maxim Zakharov leading the way with 25 points. EU hit 100 points with 14 minutes left in the second half as they blew out the All-Stars with a final score of 143-75
Scenic West Athletic Conference first week standings have Snow College winning both of their first week conference games to take the top spot followed by Eastern Utah. Southern Idaho and Salt Lake both at 1-1 followed by Colorado Northwestern 0-1 and North Idaho at 0-2.

Polka dots are all the rage for fall, but if you've been with us for more than a couple of scrolls you know we're all about being ahead of the curve when it comes to style. We absolutely love this outfit by blogger Lisa D. who is rocking the fall trend to perfection. Her asymmetrical polka dot maxi skirt is a breathe of fresh air paired with an untucked denim shirt and chunky platform booties, which totally add the perfect hint of sexy edge. What's event better about this look is that you can take it from day to evening in a second. Start by tucking the shirt in, throw on a boyfriend blazer in a neutral hue, grab an oversized envelope clutch and you're all set! You'll be ahead of the game in more ways than one!
Check out Lisa's blog and Lookbook.nu page for more of her killer looks!

DriveGuard 225/40RF18
The DriveGuard is Bridgestone™s Grand Touring All-Season self-supporting replacement run-flat tire designed to satisfy drivers looking for a longer wearing, better riding option to replace Original Equipment run-flat tires, as well as safety-minded drivers whose cars* were not originally available with run-flat tires.
Features & Benefits
- Featuring Bridgestone™s latest run-flat technology, DriveGuard tires are designed to offer almost the same riding comfort as conventional tires while providing temporary extended mobility for a distance of 50 miles at up to 50 mph even after a puncture has allowed complete air pressure loss. DriveGuard tires can help drivers better manage their busy schedules by avoiding becoming stranded in a rural area, on a crowded expressway or in inclement weather because of a flat tire.
- DriveGuard tires are also designed to provide year-round driving flexibility by offering predictable handling, traction and control on dry and wet roads, as well as in light snow.
- DriveGuard tires mold a silica-enhanced all-season tread compound into an asymmetric tread design that blends predictable handling and cornering stability with long wear and all-season traction. Circumferential and cross grooves help evacuate water to resist hydroplaning while engineered sipes increase the number of biting edges to enhance wet road and wintertime traction.
- The tire's internal structure includes twin steel belts reinforced by spirally wrapped nylon on top of a rayon cord casing that features reinforced sidewalls to temporarily support the vehicle after a puncture causes a loss of air pressure. Bridgestone's NanoPro-Tech Sidewall reinforced rubber compound is molded into sidewalls that feature a sophisticated Cooling Fin Design to blend run-flat performance with a lighter-weight construction that doesn't sacrifice as much ride comfort.

OGDB Final: A nation watches and hopes for gold
Jason Gregor
February 28 2010 11:57AM
In case we needed some more incentive for tonight's game, a win on the ice by Canada will set a new winter Olympic record for most Gold medals in one Olympics: fourteen I guess Own the Podium wasn't far off after all.
You've been captivated the past 15 days by the likes of Alex Bilodeau, Maelle Ricker, Christine Nesbitt, Jon Montgomery, Scott Moir, Tessa Virtue, Ashleigh McIvor, Kaillie Humphries, Heather Moyse, Charles Hamelin (twice), Francois Hamelin, Olivier Jean, Francois-Louis Tremblay, women's hockey, Mathieu Giroux, Lucas Makowsky, Denny Morrison, Jasey Jay Anderson, Kevin Martin, John Morris, Marc Kennedy and Ben Hebert.
Or maybe you shed a tear and felt a great sense of Canadian pride watching Joannie Rochette perform so admirably after her mother's death en route to a bronze medal, so maybe it is fitting that we get to watch OUR game against the United States.
I don't believe that hockey has dominated these games, because we've witnessed so many other great and inspirational efforts, but it is fitting that today Canada has a chance to win gold in the game we love the most, and finish off the 2010 Olympic Games in style.
Tickets for the game are going for more than a Super Bowl ticket right now. Scalpers, and on-line ticket sites are asking, and getting, four thousand dollars for a ticket.
The Americans can pump their chest all they want about football and baseball being their game, but neither of those sports are in the Olympics, and neither captivates an entire nation like hockey does for Canadians.
THERE IS A "G" an "O" and "D" in GOLD
Before we get any further I think it is fitting, being Sunday and all, that we say a few words. Read them out loud and with some feeling.
Our Father who art in Vancouver, hockey be thy name. Thy will be done, the Gold will be won, on the ice for the men as it was for the women. Give us this day, our hockey wives, and forgive us our penalties as we forgive those who cross check against us. Lead us not into elimination but deliver us to victory. For thine is the Getzlaf, the Toews and the holy Crosby, AMEN...
Reader/listener, Derrick, sent this to me and who knows maybe a little divine intervention can't hurt.
Even though the States have yet to lose in the tournament I still think Canada is the favourite. Ryan Miller has been spectacular for the USA and he'll need to do it again if they want to win.
Canada is averaging 40.5 SOG in the tourney, and they had 43 on Miller last Sunday, meanwhile the States have fired an average of 31 shots in their five wins. Miller will be busier than Roberto Luongo and he'll have to be better to stop Canada from grabbing their record-setting 14th gold.
The PPs are a saw off. Canada has scored on 29.1% of their opportunities while the USA is close at 28.5%. But Canada has a big advantage on the PK, with a tournament best 88.4% efficiency compared to only 76.9% for the States.
The most surprising stat is that these are the two most disciplined teams in the tourney. The States have only been shorthanded 13 times in five games, while Canada has had to kill of 19 penalties in their six games. Both teams have been physical, but neither has run into penalty trouble, excluding the 3rd period last Sunday when Canada took three consecutive penalties.
It would seem the big advantage the US has is in goal with Ryan Miller. Miller has given up five goals in five games, although his GAA is just below one, because he didn't play the final eleven minutes v. Finland. And is SV% is a sparkling .952.
But outside of the Canada game has he really been tested.
He faced 15 shots v. the Swiss, 11 v. Norway, 43 v. Canada, then 19 in the quarterfinals against the Swiss, before stopping 18 in the semi-final. He has played well, there is no doubt, but when you consider the bad games we've seen from Martin Brodeur, Henrik Lundqvist (Slovakia), Evgeni Nabokov (Canada) and Mikka Kiprusoff in the semis you wonder if it's Miller's time to lay an egg?
I hope he plays great and Canada still wins, because then there will be no excuses from south of the border.
A big goal in today's game will make a player famous for years to come. Paul Henderson wasn't the best player in 1972, but he scored the two most important goals in that series, and he's famous because of it.
Who will be a star today?
My money is on Ryan Getzlaf. Some questioned if his ankle would allow him to contribute, but those worries have been erased by a clutch performance from Getzlaf. He, along with Corey Perry and Brendan Morrow, has been Canada's best line the past two games and I expect that to continue today.
Sidney Crosby has been rather quiet the past few games, so you can never count out the Kid, but I have a feeling Getzlaf's line will be key in Canada's win.
I haven't been this excited for a game in years. Even though it was only eight years ago that these two teams met for gold in Salt Lake, this game just seems more hyped and more important. There's a lot on the line, and I expect the Red and White to come through.
Canada wins 5-3, we set an Olympic record for most gold medals and we show the world this is still OUR game. GO CANADA.

We kicked ass at these Olys and put on a great show in Vancouver. But I can't help wonder how showcasing a bunch of second-rate performers at the tail end of the show is upping our street cred around the world.

Is That Bin Laden-Appropriate Martin Luther King, Jr. Quote a Fake?
Today, while struggling with the acceptable amount of happiness to feel over the death of Bin Laden, you may have stumbled across a strikingly apropos quote attributed to Martin Luther King, Jr.
You then told two Facebook friends, and they told two Facebook friends, and so on and so forth, until all of the land was wallpapered in King's words of tolerance and wisdom. But did anyone actually stop to wonder if he actually said them? Someone did — and the answer is yes, and no.
First off, here's the quote you couldn't escape today, no matter how hard you tried:
"I mourn the loss of thousands of precious lives, but I will not rejoice in the death of one, not even an enemy. Returning hate for hate multiplies hate, adding deeper darkness to a night already devoid of stars. Darkness cannot drive out darkness: only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate: only love can do that." - Martin Luther King, Jr.
Doubts about its authenticity began popping up in a number of places, including this piece from theatlantic.com, this blog, and in this thread on Reddit.
The consensus is that the first sentence, which circulated on its own on Twitter, was completely fabricated. What "thousands of precious lives" could King have been referring to, after all? The rest of the quote, however, is legit, and comes from King's 1963 book, Strength to Love. (Here's the page in Google Books.)
So the sentiment is authentically King's, but the part that elegantly links it to the Bin Laden case is fabricated. That information may not sway you a whole lot from your position, but at least let's get the attribution right.
UPDATE: It turns out the Mark Twain quote being tossed around by the other side, "I have never killed a man, but I have read many obituaries with great pleasure," was actually said by Clarence Darrow.
Can't anyone get a Bin Laden-appropriate quote right?
UPDATE 2: The source of the fake quote has been identified. It wasn't intentional! And she speaks! [image via Reddit]

In the Garden
Caring for your trees
With the arrival of fall, days will soon be getting noticeably shorter and nighttime temperatures will begin to fall.
Now, as your trees begin responding to the changing conditions, you can take a number of proactive steps to care for them and help ensure they will be healthy and beautiful for years to come.
"It's a good idea to think about the health of your trees in fall," says certified arborist Jason Anderson, co-owner of Arborscapes LLC. Anderson conducts the training on trees for Master Gardeners in Henrico, Chesterfield, and Goochland/Powhatan.
He advises starting by taking a good, long look at your trees. Notice whether there are dead branches – which are much easier to identify while the leaves are still on the tree. Some dead branches are normal, but if more than roughly 10% -- the amount varies by tree type – is dead, you may want to consider talking to a certified arborist.
Look again when the leaves start to fall to make sure all your deciduous trees of the same species are dropping their leaves at roughly the same time. "If one is dropping its leaves earlier, it can be a sign that the tree is stressed," says Anderson.
Checking trees of like species again next spring to see if they bud at roughly the same time can also help you tell if you have a tree that is stressed.
"An important thing to remember," says Anderson, "particularly if you have a mature tree is that the tree may not show signs of distress for two or three years following the event that causes the stress."
After looking up, look down to check the mulch around your trees.
"Mulching is one of the best things you can do for your trees," says Anderson, "provided you do it properly."
Mulch around trees should be no more than 2-3 inches deep and should never be piled up against tree bark at the base of the tree. Make the ring of mulch as large as you can up to the dripline or end of the branches of the tree.
Good mulch materials include aged sawdust, shredded pine bark, or wood chips.
"It's important not to over mulch," says Anderson. "And you need to remember that mulch goes over the roots, but not on the trunk of the tree."
Mulch adds organic matter to the soil around the tree and helps keep soil temperatures warmer, allowing tree roots to continue to grow later into the fall. Once winter arrives, mulch helps reduce alternate freezing and thawing that heaves soil and can cause damage to young roots.
Mulching also reduces water loss and helps maintain uniform soil moisture around tree roots.
"Grass roots compete with tree roots for water," says Anderson. "Mulching eliminates the competition."
Fall and winter when trees are dormant are also ideal times to do any pruning that may be needed. "Structural and formative pruning on trees less than ten years old can help eliminate problems in the future," explains Anderson. "And older trees may need deadwood removed to improve their structure and reduce liability during bad weather."

"Twilight" star Kellan Lutz is giving us even more reason to love this on-screen vampire: he will pull double duty as a collaborating designer and face of Dylan George and Abbot + Main's Fall campaign. In this steamy campaign, Kellan is photographed in a variety of provocative positions with model Anne V. We're not sure what Anne's boyfriend Adam Levine (of Maroon 5) thinks, but we might suggest hosing these two down; although, it might cause shrinkage… of the jeans.

Read and weep.
Typical ... Instead of paying off the debt having been handed huge surpluses, Republicans waste money on illegal wars, corporate welfare, and tax cuts for their rich buddies.
But hey, providing you these facts took all of 3 minutes. No wonder Fox Noise folks have no idea - 3 minutes of research - Wow.
By RICHARD W. STEVENSON
Published: December 29, 2000
The Clinton administration handed a parting gift to President-elect George W. Bush today, projecting that the federal budget surplus would swell substantially, to nearly $5 trillion, over the next decade.
Administration officials said they expected the surplus to total $4.996 trillion in the 10 years beginning with the start of the next fiscal year, on Oct. 1, 2001. That amounts to an increase of just over $800 billion from the administration's previous projection, of $4.193 trillion for the 10 years that started this October.
Although such long-range projections are subject to change with ups and downs in the economy and are not a tool of great precision, the new estimates give Mr. Bush more wiggle room in his efforts to convince Congress and the public that his tax cut proposal, valued at some $1.6 trillion over 10 years, is affordable.
Clearly aware that the figures would further intensify the pent-up Republican demand for tax cuts, President Clinton used the release of the new projections to make a case for using the surplus to eliminate the $3.4 trillion national debt faster.
Speaking to reporters at the White House, Mr. Clinton said the debt could be paid off by 2009 or 2010, two years ahead of his previous estimate. And he said that staying a course of debt reduction would yield benefits to consumers and the economy in the form of lower interest rates and the flexibility to allocate tax revenue to more productive uses than paying interest on Treasury bonds.
The upbeat estimates Mr. Clinton is handing off to Mr. Bush stand in contrast to the bad news on the budget delivered to Mr. Clinton in late 1992 by the departing administration of Mr. Bush's father. As he prepared to take office, Mr. Clinton was informed that the budget deficits he was inheriting would be even worse than previously projected.
Now the surplus projections continue to rise despite the recent slowdown in the economy.
The administration did not release the economic growth assumptions it used in its calculations. Jack Lew, the White House budget director, said the assumptions were ''consistent with updates'' on economic conditions through last month, and continued the practice of assuming moderate growth rates.
In any case, much of the improvement came not from economic changes but from the change in the time frame covered by the projections. The new estimate drops the surplus projection for the current fiscal year and adds the much higher projection for 2011.
The new figures also incorporate the added government spending signed into law by Mr. Clinton this month after long negotiations with the Republican Congress.
They assume that spending will continue to increase in line with inflation, but do not include the costs of any big initiatives like the addition of prescription drug coverage to Medicare or the addition of private investment accounts to Social Security.
The administration's projections are to be followed next month by new surplus estimates from the Congressional Budget Office, whose figures are more typically used in turning proposals into legislation. The budget office is also likely to show the surplus rising hundreds of billions of dollars, probably to a level higher than the figure of nearly $5 trillion used by the White House today.

An Opinion piece from a left wing hack at the New york times is all you got. You call that facts? Again Clinton left office with a Debt of 5.6 Trillion. What part of that do you not understand?
#2001 Jan 11, 2013
"Clinton's last four annual budgets had surpluses:
1998 $69 billion
1999 $125 billion
2000 $236 billion
2001 $128 billion
But they didn't 'leave' us a surplus; at the end of 2001 we were still $5.8 trillion in debt.
Debt added by the last five presidents' budgets:
Reagan (budgets submitted for years 1982 to 1989):$1.9 trillion
H. W. Bush (1990-1993):$1.5 trillion
Clinton (1994-2001):$1.4 trillion
W. Bush (2002-2009):$6.1 trillion
Obama (2010-2013)$5.7 trillion
Note that each president submits the budget for his successor's first year. If these figures were by years in office, W. Bush (2001-2008) would show 4.7 trillion and Obama 6.3 trillion."

You don't know Jack shit about war!
The US spends more on it's military than do the next thirteen nations COMBINED, including Russia and China, yet can not defeat an insurgency made up of an estimated 50 - 80,000 poorly armed, poorly equipped, poorly organized (supposedly) religious fanatics who have no intention of invading America. Instead, they're bleeding us to death, as they've been doing for the past decade, and the Army is powerless to stop them.
Other nations fear us, as well they should, but don't respect us, as we like to think they do. America is the bully, the war-monger!
It's all about power and profits for the military/industrial complex!

Let me know if you still want to pretend Bush's own claimed debt of $10.6 Trillion is a lie.
Wait - Bush must be lying about his own budge too - well he was - his debt didn't include the $2 Trillion he was spending on illegal wars.
The Weekly Standard: Obama Vs. Bush On Debt
by JEFFREY H. ANDERSON

Jeffrey H. Anderson is a former professor of American government and political philosophy at the U.S. Air Force Academy and the director of the Benjamin Rush Society.
In his State of the Union address tonight, President Obama will reportedly issue a call for "responsible" efforts to reduce deficits (while simultaneously calling for new federal spending). In light of the President's expected rhetorical nod to fiscal responsibility, it's worth keeping in mind his record on deficits to date. When President Obama took office two years ago, the national debt stood at $10.626 trillion. It now stands at $14.071 trillion â a staggering increase of $3.445 trillion in just 735 days (about $5 billion a day).
To put that into perspective, when President George W. Bush took office, our national debt was $5.768 trillion. By the time Bush left office, it had nearly doubled, to $10.626 trillion. So Bush's record on deficit spending was not good at all: During his presidency, the national debt rose by an average of $607 billion a year...
#2008 Jan 11, 2013
And some more.
Now here after stating the facts, the author offers opinion that makes a heck of a lot of sense.
ZFacts ..... January 11, 2012. Republicans blame the "Democratic Congress" for their debt increases. The trouble is that Congress was only Democratic 8 out of the 20 years, and in those 8 years, on average, Congress passed smaller budgets than the Republican presidents requested. The specifics are all right here: It Was the Republicans.
So, let's add up the debt under Reagan and the Bushes. We can't blame Reagan for the debt's increase until his first budget took effect, October 1, 1981. Then, for 12 years until Sept. 30, 1993, the Republicans ballooned the debt. Later, George W. Bush took over.
Under Reagan and Bush:$3.4 Trillion increase in the debt.
Under George W. Bush:$6.1 Trillion.[1]
Total:$9.5 Trillion.(without counting interest)
But wait, there's interest on that debt ... continued below the graph.
The debt went up during Clinton's years only because of $2.2 Trillion interest on the Reagan-Bush debt. Otherwise Clinton would have paid off most the remaining WWII debt. G.W.Bush got sand-bagged by Reagan.
Just like a mortgage, the debt incurs interest, so the Reagan-Bush-I debt grew during the Clinton years. The average debt interest rate in those years was about 6.5%, which would increase it over 50% without compounding, but with compound interest the total debt â including interest â increased by $2.2 trillion.
Total Republican debt from above:$9.5 trillion
Interest on Reagan-Bush debt under Clinton:$2.2 trillion
Interest on $11.7 trillion after G. W. Bush:$0.3 trillion
(detailed calculation)
Grand Total Reagan-Bushes Debt:$12 trillion (as of Sept. 30, 2010).
If the Republicans had not run up this $12 trillion debt, we could easily have pulled out of the Great Recession.
#2010 Jan 11, 2013
From The same article: How do Bush and Obama compare on closer inspection? Just about like they do on an initial glance. According to the White House's Office of Management and Budget, during his eight fiscal years, Bush ran up a total of $3.283 trillion in deficit spending (p. 22). In his first two fiscal years, Obama will run up a total of $2.826 trillion in deficit spending ($1.294 trillion in 2010, an estimated $1.267 trillion in 2011 (p. 23), and the $265 billion in "stimulus" money that was spent in 2009). Thus, Bush ran up an average of $410 billion in deficit spending per year, while Obama is running up an average of $1.413 trillion in deficit spending per year -- or $1.003 trillion a year more than Bush.

It's still nce to talk all these political situations while there is no republican in the Whitehouse. So they continue all these predictions, possibilities, what ifs ETC. It's just a damn good feeling that we independents overpowered the NAZI republican party. Yes I am very proud and thankful romney did'nt get his 2 trillion dollar rip-off navy buid-up budget thru. Now as I have said before all republicans stick your heads up your butts and jump. You might have a very slight chance of being in power again but it will be a long comforting 4 years before all of we non-republicans have to worry about that. Thats a lot of champaign, cold beer and bourbon. These 3 will go down much easier having this crucial knowledge in mind.

i guess my comment was a little mean i owe futher explanation.i really don't object to third or more party candidates,if they have a realistic chance of wining.but it just seems to me that'more often than not',they cause more harm than good.florida in 2000,being the latest example.i just think we need a system that ensures we elect someone(whatever party)that the majority of americans support.looking back in history,doing the opposite usually leads to some sort of calamity(i.e.1860).if we do want a multi-party system,then maybe we should do like the bcs in college football has chosen to do.that is to have some sort of run-off/playoff to finally get to the two top teams/candidates.at least we would have a mandate,of sorts.
#2018 Jan 11, 2013
Agrees, with exception I believe Republicans are better T concealing their true agenda but end result is the same, both parties represent Wall Street, not Main Street.
#2019 Jan 11, 2013
Wait... Aren't you the one who said this was a useless opinion piece when it proved that Bush managed to turn a $300 Billion Dollar budget surplus into a $1.6 Trillion Dollar deficit, and left a $10.6 Trillion Dollar debt to Obama ?
I understand, those pesky facts that demonstrate the facts I presented were true, you now admit are accurate, as long as there are parts of the article that attack Obama.
Hey, if that's all it takes for you to admit the facts, that's OK with me.
