Samoan Netball Association Teams Up With Polynesian Blue11/05/2007
Polynesian Blue has announced its first national sports sponsorship in Samoa, teaming up with the Samoan Netball Association as it sets its sights on the World Netball Championships 2007 in Auckland.
The partnership deal is being signed in Apia today prior to the Samoan netball team playing an international test match against Singapore.
The signing complements recent sports sponsorship signed by Virgin Blue Airlines, including the rugby league team the South Sydney Rabbitohs and rugby union team the Queensland Reds, in Australia.
Polynesian Blue spokesperson, Amanda Bolger, said the sponsorship deal will see the airline helping the Samoan Netball Association with travel around the Pacific, including flights on Pacific Blue.
"We have been very heartened by the level of support extended to Polynesian Blue by the people of Samoa since our launch and this sponsorship agreement with the Samoan Netball Association is an excellent platform for us to return that support and get behind the community in which we are proud to operate."
Samoan Netball Association spokesperson, Noumea Simi, said the organisation is delighted to have Polynesian Blue on board.
"The sponsorship is great timing for us with the South Pacific Games being held in Apia in September and the World Netball Championships in Auckland in November.
"It's wonderful to be teaming up with Polynesian Blue as we look forward to a successful international netball season."
The airline's Auckland-based Sales Manager, Taulapapa Maggie Jenks, will be in Apia on Friday to co-sign the sponsorship agreement, which will run until the end of this year's world championships.
Samoa is sixth in the World Netball Championship rankings following its performance at the last world championships in 2003 in Jamaica.

Environment Ministers to Gather this Week in Bamako to Firm Up Africa's Position ahead of Crucial Durban Conference on Climate Change14/
Meeting of experts to tackle issues left unresolved in the Cancun AgreementsBamako (Mali)/Nairobi (Kenya), 13 September 2011- Lead African Climate change negotiators and high level experts from about 50 countries are meeting in Bamako, Mali to pave the way for African ministers to consolidate Africa's common negotiating on a comprehensive international Climate Change regime beyond 2012.The experts' segment of the Fourth special session of the African Ministerial Conference on the Environment (AMCEN) on climate change opened today at the International Conference Center in Bamako. The conference brings together about 200 delegates representing countries, international organizations, research institutes and civil society organizations. Speaking at the opening ceremony, the Minister of Environment and Sanitation of Mali and President of AMCEN Prof. Tiémoko Sangaré said: "It is critical for Africa to achieve sustained economic growth and eradicate poverty so as to be able to deal with the adverse impacts of climate change and we need to ensure that Africa's priorities are taken into account during the Durban negotiations".He called on experts to carefully review the issues left unresolved issues in the "Cancun Agreements", as these issues will shape the discussions at the UN Seventeen conference on Climate change from 28 November to 9 December 2011 in December in Durban. The need to stabilize global average temperatures at levels that are safe for developing countries, particularly in Africa is one of the pressing issues that require urgent attention. The UNEP Emission Gap Report confirms that current mitigation pledges ? unless strengthened ? will set the world on course for global warming of between 2.5 to 5°C. Due to its geographic and physical characteristics Africa will warm around one-and-a-half times the global level, according to the Inter governmental Panel on Climate Change. More recent studies, based on historical information, project that warming of as little as 1°C could reduce agricultural production by 20% in certain crops and areas, in addition to other potentially significant adverse impacts for Africa and her development.Other pending issues include finding a way forward under the Kyoto Protocol, how to raise and secure funds needed for the long-term climate financing and the legal form of a new climate agreement.UNEP Regional Director for Africa, Mounkaila Goumandakoye said: "Africa is vulnerable to climate change but does not have to be a victim of climate change. We cannot defer the moment for action and for influencing the future. We expect this AMCEN meeting to develop a coherent strategy and messages for Durban, with the aim of securing balanced and ambitious outcomes that serve Africa's needs and interests". During their deliberations, experts will also focus on the preparations for the United Nations Conference on sustainable development (Rio +20) to be held in June 2012 in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil with the view to secure renewed international political commitment to sustainable development. Note to editors: The experts' segment of the 4th special session of AMCEN on climate change will run from 13-14 September and will prepare the stage for the Ministerial Conference, which will be opened by the Prime Minister of Mali, President of the Republic of Mali, Mrs. CISSE Mariam Kaidama Sidibe on Thursday 15 September. The Experts segment was preceded by a meeting of environment experts and representatives of ministries of foreign affairs on the international environmental governance within the international framework for sustainable development. The meeting aimed to discuss Africa's needs and priorities that will form the key elements of a continent's common position for Rio+20.The African Ministerial Conference on the Environment (AMCEN) was established in 1985 as a forum to strengthen co-operation on environmental issues between African governments.For more information, please contact the AMCEN secretariat at firstname.lastname@example.com

OMG it means that If I wanna that precious title I gotta work. This is my last chance for week 38 TT_TT (Either way, I´d get it just if Ravona, Imotochan and Veleon wouldnt be participating >_> Also FS sig is just freaking amusing)
Zomg! prize O.O
Haha Deck... is that amusing bad or amusing good? :p
Congrats on your new tittle Asce!!
That's a real cool idea Asce.

I'd rather have themes for each week then free-for-alls. If you need help with getting themes, I am sure we all are willing to pitch ideas.
"I couldn't care less; I love Asuka" -Me
We've been having themes all the while (not including SotY); I thought a couple of free-for-alls would be ok before we resume with themes.
Though, go ahead and suggest a theme. We can put it up for discussion for future rounds. :>
I agree with ImotoChan, having constant themes can get a bit dull so it's good to mix it up a little with a freestyle or two. ^^ Although, constant freestyles can also be dull, so let's just agree on a theme for week #40?
"Damn it, you can't euthanize people with minty fresh breath!"
Sounds good to me. Bring in the ideas~ :>

The Chair Mark Warawa
I will call the meeting to order now that the minister is here with us.
I want to welcome everyone to this 26th meeting of the Standing Committee on Environment and Sustainable Development. We have approximately one hour with the minister and department.
Minister, I'll just let you get your talking points ready, and you can start at your convenience.
4:35 p.m.
Peter Kent Minister of the Environment
Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Good afternoon, Mr. Chair and members of the committee, for this abbreviated session, circumstances being what they are.
With me today are my deputy minister, Paul Boothe; the CEO of Parks Canada Agency, Alan Latourelle; vice-president of the Canadian Environmental Assessment Agency, Mr. Yves Leboeuf; assistant deputy minister, science and technology branch at Environment Canada, Dr. Karen Dodds; and Environment Canada's chief financial officer, Carol Najm.
As we look forward to the next 12 months, our government is keenly interested in striking the right balance between economic renewal and environmental protection. We need to ensure that our natural resources are developed in an environmentally sustainable manner while we maximize economic growth, competitiveness, and the creation of good long-term jobs for Canadians.
As you all know, Environment Canada is a regulatory department. Its main function is to develop, implement, monitor and enforce national, science-based environmental regulations and standards.
One of our focuses this year will be to streamline and to increase the efficiency and transparency of our regulatory processes so that we can make them more efficient and more effective. We intend to take our proven track record of regulatory excellence to the next level as Environment Canada is committed to operating as a world-class regulator.
As regulations define many of our efforts at Environment Canada, these changes will be a key component in enabling this department to achieve many of its goals for Canadians. Those include carrying out our commitment to reduce this country's greenhouse gas emissions by 17% over 2005 base levels by 2020. Canada is already one-quarter of the way towards reaching its 2020 target through our sector-by-sector approach.
We have targeted the transportation and electricity sectors—the two largest sources of greenhouse gas emissions in Canada. We have introduced new emissions regulations for cars and trucks in the transportation sector. We are now addressing the electricity sector by refining the regulations and creating new performance standards for coal-fired electricity generation, and we will continue to make progress by addressing emissions from other major emitting sectors.
But as we all know our efforts alone are not enough. On the international stage, Canada has been playing an active role in the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change since its inception, and has worked constructively with other countries over the past several years to launch the negotiations process on a new international climate change agreement for the future. The Durban Platform for Enhanced Action took another step forward by setting out a negotiating mandate for all countries to develop a single, new, international treaty to include all major emitters, to be implemented by 2020.
While these are significant aims, we recognize that a lot of work still needs to be done.
One direction we're pursuing is taking action where the needs are most pressing and where the resources to act are most limited. As part of our commitment to provide our fair share of fast-start financing, the Government of Canada has contributed $1.2 billion in new and additional climate change financing.
We will be supporting a range of projects and programs in some of the world's neediest and poorest countries. Already these funds have helped to address deforestation and forest degradation and to ensure food security and provide adaptation assistance.
Here at home, we're continuing to press forward in our work towards achieving this country's full potential as a clean energy superpower. We're building the appropriate framework, and we're building it on environmental regulations and standards that are based on clear and transparent policies and practices.
We're also continuing to make great progress in ensuring that future growth of the oil sands will be done in a responsible and a sustainable manner.
With the release of our integrated environment monitoring plan for the oil sands last July, we outlined what we needed to have and what we needed to do in order to develop a world-class monitoring program for this important resource.
As you know, last month, with my colleague from Alberta, Minister McQueen, I announced the joint Canada-Alberta implementation plan for oil sands monitoring. This world-class, science-based program will provide Canadians with the necessary rigorous scientific data to ensure that this resource is developed in an environmentally sustainable manner. Most importantly, this program will make Canada's oil sands monitoring among the best in the world.
Moreover, our clean air agenda will ensure cleaner air and a cleaner environment for all Canadians. Under this agenda, we are identifying emerging air quality issues, measuring and monitoring the status of existing issues, and evaluating solutions.
Under the next phase of Canada's chemicals management plan, we're also working to protect Canadians from harmful chemicals by assessing and regulating a multitude of chemicals used in thousands of industrial and consumer products. This is one of the many ways in which Environment Canada is earning a reputation as a world-class regulator, and we continue to build on that reputation.
Furthermore, the department is carrying out its mandate to protect and conserve Canada's rich and abundant biodiversity. For example, under our new St. Lawrence Plan we are working with Quebec to ensure water quality, protect ecologically sensitive areas and conserve the incredible biodiversity of the St. Lawrence.
Additionally, the department is enhancing our weather and warning service across the country so that it continues to provide Canadians with a comprehensive national weather, water, and climate monitoring system.
As for the Canadian Environmental Assessment Agency, Mr. Chair, our focus remains on supporting the Canadian economy and the sustainability of the environment through the delivery of timely, high-quality environmental assessments. Through this practice, we aim to prevent adverse environmental effects, in a cost-effective manner, before project construction begins.
Since we last met, Parks Canada celebrated its 100th anniversary. To date, it has expanded existing parks and created new ones to the point where Canada now protects close to 100 million hectares—about 10% of our entire land mass.
I could talk at length about our accomplishments and our future goals, but I trust l've left you with a clear sense of our direction and our actions.
I would now like to turn, with your permission, to the estimates documents that are before Parliament for consideration.
There are three main documents: the supplementary (B) and (C) estimates for the 2011-12 fiscal, and the main estimates for the 2012-13 fiscal. We'll be looking at these estimates for my portfolio, including Environment Canada, the Canadian Environmental Assessment Agency, and Parks Canada.
Let's start with the supplementary (B) estimates, the second request to adjust funding allocations this fiscal year.
For Environment Canada, we're requesting $135.4 million in additional funding. This funding will go largely towards major initiatives such as the clean air regulatory agenda, or CARA III; the chemical management plan; the monitoring and supercomputing, or MSC, infrastructure; phase two of the federal contaminated sites action plan; the federal adaptation program; and clean transportation.
Parks Canada is requesting $30.1 million in additional funding, which includes funding for emergency response to natural disasters and unanticipated health and safety-related capital repairs; the Trans Canada Trail completion and promotion; the War of 1812 horizontal initiative, to support bicentennial commemoration of the War of 1812; phase two of the federal contaminated sites action plan; to help Canadians adapt to climate change under Canada's clean air agenda; and grants to the Tulita District Lands Corporation as a step toward completion to the establishment of the Nááts'ihch'oh National Park Reserve.
The Canadian Environmental Assessment Agency requested $2.1 million in contributions to fund public participation and to lead aboriginal consultations for environmental assessments of major development projects.
Now let's turn to the supplementary (C) estimates, the final request for adjustments to our funding allocations for this fiscal year.
Environment Canada is not asking for additional funding in these estimates. It is requesting permission to reallocate existing funds within the department. The majority of these funds will be used for significant initiatives such as advancing Canada's international climate change actions, the international climate strategy, and fast-start financing, and conserving ecologically sensitive land.
Mr. Chair, let's turn now to the main estimates, the first request for departmental funding for the next fiscal year. Environment Canada is requesting $972.7 million in these main estimates. This amount represents a $100.6-million increase over last year's main estimates, which is due mainly to program increases for the Clean Air Agenda, Canada's Chemical Management Plan, the Federal Contaminated Sites Action Plan, and Canada's weather services.
These estimates will inform Canada's domestic regulatory approach to greenhouse gas emissions, providing a platform to further engagement with the United States on climate change issues and enhancing Canada's visibility as an international leader in clean energy technology.
They will help to address health and environmental risks posed by harmful chemicals by accelerating the pace of the risk assessment to address the legacy of unassessed substances under the Canadian Environmental Protection Act, 1999, by 2020. Also, they will allow the department to continue its work of assessing and remediating contaminated sites through the federal contaminated sites action plan. Lastly, they will give Environment Canada the leverage to improve Canada's weather services by ensuring the integrity of the Government of Canada's weather and environmental supercomputer for the Meteorological Service of Canada.
As for the Canadian Environmental Assessment Agency, the 2012-13 main estimates propose a net decrease of $13 million in comparison to the agency's 2011-12 main estimates. This would bring the total 2012-13 budget to $17 million. This decrease, as most of you know, is largely attributable to the sunsetting of the Major Projects Management Office—MPMO—initiative and aboriginal consultation. These initiatives will be reviewed as part of the normal process for funds that have sunsetted, which will inform the government's decision on its renewal.
Moving forward to the 2012-13 main estimates for Parks Canada, the request totals $648.2 million. This reflects a net decrease of $42.3 million from the 2011-12 main estimates. The major changes in funding compared to the previous year represent reductions in funding needs for the planned completion of a section of the Trans-Canada Highway in Banff National Park, for the transfer of e-mail, data centre, and network services to Shared Services Canada, and the funding received to implement the Species at Risk Act.
Increases, on the other hand, will largely go towards emergency responses to natural disasters, federal contaminated sites, and to support additional building of the Trans-Canada Trail.
Mr. Chair, this highlights just some of the objectives that these estimates will support in the department's work to provide Canadians with a clean, safe, and sustainable environment.
I would again like to thank you and this committee for your time today, Mr. Chair, and I would be happy to take your questions at this time.
4:50 p.m.
The Chair Mark Warawa
Thank you, Minister. I appreciate the brief and the explanation.
Colleagues, the first round is normally seven minutes long. I'm going to make it six minutes. I'll have to keep our time quite tight because we're running late and I want to give as many people as possible an opportunity to ask questions.
Ms. Rempel, we'll begin with you. You have six minutes.
4:50 p.m.
Michelle Rempel Calgary Centre-North, AB
Minister Kent, on behalf of all of the committee members here, thank you for appearing before us today.
Deputy Minister Boothe, we also appreciate the time that you and your colleagues are taking to prepare and inform us about the estimates.
Just as a preamble, I think it's important to note that on both sides of the table here, while we may not always agree on approach, I think everyone has the protection of the environment at heart when we're dealing with policy. I thought it would behove us to re-emphasize some of the key points that are outlined in the estimates and that lead to that approach.
In particular, I would like to highlight the efforts we've undertaken to tackle the challenge of global warming. Some of the efforts that we've undertaken and are reflected in the estimates include: the commitment to reduce Canada's total greenhouse gas emissions by 20% by 2020; investments in clean technologies, including next generation biofuels and carbon capture and storage; and active and constructive participation in United Nations negotiations to develop a new international climate change agreement.
I do think it's fair to say that these estimates reflect our government's intention to work with our partners at home and internationally for the continued protection of Canada's valued and diverse environmental legacy and for the greater advancement of worldwide environmental protection efforts.
Just to start my line of questioning, as there are many new members on the committee here, I would like to talk a little bit about the process by which estimates are developed. So I thought that first and foremost, Minister, perhaps you could take some time to do that.
Could you inform the committee about how the estimate process works? For example, how do your reports on plans and priorities work in conjunction with the departmental performance reports? Maybe you could take a few moments to elaborate on that.
4:50 p.m.
Peter Kent Thornhill, ON
Sure. Well, with regard to the dollar process, it is done in consultation with the department, with the various agencies within the department. It looks at anticipated changes in priorities and in spending obligations.
With regard to the actuarial details, I will refer that question.
4:50 p.m.
Carol Najm Assistant Deputy Minister, Finance Branch, Department of the Environment
Thank you, Minister.
The estimates are tabled in the House of Commons by the president of the Treasury Board. They're made up of three parts. The first part is the government expense plan. This plan highlights an overview of the federal spending and summarizes the relationship between the key elements in the main estimates and the current expense plan. That's part I.
Part II is the main estimates. The main estimates are what support the Appropriation Act. They identify the spending authorities in the votes and the amounts to be included in subsequent appropriation bills. Parliament will be asked to approve these votes to enable the government to proceed with its spending plans.
Parts I and II of the main estimates are tabled concurrently on or before the first of March.
Part III, which contains the departmental expenditure plans, is divided into two parts: the report on plans and priorities and the departmental performance plans. In the report on plans and priorities, individual expenditure plans are elaborated on, and departments and agencies provide more detail with respect to the level of activities and contain information on strategic outcomes, initiatives, planned results, and links to the resource requirements over a three-year period. These documents are normally tabled in the fall.
So that's sometimes the difference between the contents of the main estimates and what you would find in the report on plans and priorities.
4:55 p.m.
Michelle Rempel Calgary Centre-North, AB
If I can just interject quickly, in the House this session we've had many questions about reductions in funding to specifically CEAA and SARA, when in fact these are sunsetting funds. Perhaps you could take a brief moment, prior to everyone else asking questions, to explain the difference between sunsetting funds and cuts.
4:55 p.m.
Peter Kent Thornhill, ON
I'll take that question.
Basically, programs are created for specific periods of time. CEAA is one that regularly reaches the end of a term and needs to be reviewed and assessed, and new requests are put forward for continued funding. That is what we have done and will do for CEAA.
A year ago, the questions were with regard to reductions in several of the other sunsetted areas—CARA, the contaminated sites, and the freshwater program. By having a set period for funding, it ensures a thoughtful, careful review of the program in the years of its assigned period, and for a return to Parliament to request continued and renewed funding.
That's essentially what's happening with CEAA.
4:55 p.m.
The Chair Mark Warawa
Thank you very much. The time has expired.
We will now go to Ms. Leslie for six minutes.
4:55 p.m.
Megan Leslie Halifax, NS
Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Welcome, Mr. Minister, as well as everybody else who's here. Thank you for your time.
My questions are about the environmental assessment agency cuts and first nations. The main estimates show a cut in financial resources for the agency, about 43%, and regardless of whether that's sunsetted funds or not, it's still a reduction.
The explanatory notes say that funding for the participant funding program will be cut by $1.1 million, and funding for aboriginal consultation will be cut by $1.1 million.
In a presentation prepared by the agency in November 2010, the agency was advising a committee of deputy ministers about risks related to the underfunding of aboriginal consultation in relation to the gateway. It says:
Lack of funding may limit the ability of aboriginal groups to reasonably and meaningfully participate in the consultation and environmental assessment process. If aboriginal groups cannot consult meaningfully due to a lack of resources and capacities, and if the Crown fails to provide adequate funding, [there is a] moderate to high risk that the courts would find the consultation process to be unreasonable.
Has the department done any analysis of the costs that might be incurred by delays due to court actions concerning the gateway, but also other projects like this?
4:55 p.m.
Peter Kent Thornhill, ON
That consideration is certainly front of mind. You're quite right. Our government takes a whole-of-government approach with regard to aboriginal consultation. There has been a transfer of funds, as you can read in the main estimates this year, to the Department of Aboriginal Affairs to support consultation. We have a statutory requirement with regard to consultations on major projects, whether under CEAA or under the National Energy Board, in the case of the Enbridge Northern Gateway process. Those funds are assigned to enable aboriginal consultation for those first nations communities and citizens in proximity to the proposed project, just as there is a statutory requirement to support the appearance of non-first-nations residents in project areas.
4:55 p.m.
Megan Leslie Halifax, NS
Thank you.
Mr. Minister, to that end, Mr. Leboeuf, who is vice-president of operations at CEAA and who is here today, during his testimony last fall about CEAA, said:
If the budgets are reduced, we will have to reassess the way in which we meet our obligations under the law.
This is very concerning.
My question is how will the crown discharge its duty to first nations communities in light of the cuts to the agency? I don't think that's clear.
4:55 p.m.
Peter Kent Thornhill, ON
As I said, it is a whole-of-government process. Several departments have responsibility for supporting and participating in first nations consultation. With regard to the dollar amounts and the estimates and Mr. Leboeuf's look-ahead for the coming year, I'd invite his interjection.
5 p.m.
Yves Leboeuf Vice-President, Operations, Canadian Environmental Assessment Agency
Thanks, Minister.
As Minister Kent mentioned, these are not cuts but rather sunsetting funding at this point in time. We are certainly looking forward to the renewal of this funding, but we will obviously have to wait until the budget to see whether or not these funds are renewed. As appropriate, and as I mentioned the last time I appeared, if the funds are not renewed we'll have to adjust our priorities. If they are renewed, then we'll continue our operations.
With respect to the Enbridge Northern Gateway funding and the presentation you referred to from November 2010, since then $636,000 in additional funding has indeed been provided to the aboriginal groups in relation to the Enbridge Northern Gateway review. Additional funding is expected to be provided for consultation on the final report when we get to that point.
5 p.m.
Megan Leslie Halifax, NS
Thank you.
I'll move on to the PEARL research lab, which I'm sure you're all familiar with. Funding for PEARL is running out and the lab will shut its doors pretty soon—if it hasn't already—which means that a significant taxpayer investment is really just going to be thrown away. We would have thought some of the climate change funding would have been used to support PEARL, but I'm unable to find where this would be. The amount of $35 million was announced to replace the expired funding, but it has yet to materialize.
Why is the money being withheld? Should we expect that it will be released any time soon?

Posted on 01/06/2008 8:50:54 PM PST by jimbo123
HAMPTON, N.H., Jan. 6 -- Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton, slipping further behind her chief rival in the Democratic primary here, has taken direct control over her strategy and message as she scrambles to block the ascent of Sen. Barack Obama.
In an unscheduled conference call with senior aides on Sunday morning, Hillary Clinton took what her advisers described as an unprecedented level of control over the direction of the daily message -- issuing orders rather than soliciting advice. According to one participant in the call, Clinton did not explicitly relieve any advisers of responsibilities, but made it clear that she intended to reorient her campaign toward sharpening her differences with Obama on the trail.
(Excerpt) Read more at washingtonpost.com ...
Hillary is a control freak, how can she take more control of something she already controls totally??
Kevlar for all...
Oh, I hope she gets SHRILL and NASTY.
I want people to see how badly she stands up to pressure.
This should be fun to watch!!!!
But. . but . . this was supposed to be a coronation! . . supposed to be just a formality with all the other candidates being lackluster up side Hillary . . this was supposed to be an inevitability . . but . . but . . sputter . . !
Fun to watch??? Yep!!
But are you ready for President Obama????????
Edwards is in full poutyface mode to boot!
Obama is gonna get his ass ripped. He is a lightweight contender. The lightest of all the Dems
Oh please! He give me the creeps!
I really want Edwards to take the lead for the Democrats - he's a loser.
Maybe this is the "inevitable" sputter on the way to the Coronation?
I am starting to think Barack may be a bit tougher nut to crack in 08, the nutroots will be behind the guy and mortgaging homes to donate to him...
Our souces (moi) said she rolled out a map...of Marcy Park!! :-)
To be honest, I'm rooting for Hillary. I really hope she can pull this off and get the Democratic nomination. I would infinitely rather the Republican nominee face Hillary than Obama—she's much easier to defeat.
As she begins to micromanage her campaign, it will get worse and worse. She probably believes that she is the world's smartest woman, and will not stop to question anything that comes into her head because time is too short and she is too arrogant.
America's ex-wife is taking over the reconstruction project on her campaign, and boy, is she ever going to screw it up! I so look forward to watching this. She may get the nomination due to the superdelegates, and that will make things even worse within the party. And she will not have a clue.
Sheesh! Well, it will make for good television and good FReeping. :-D
In MSM spin terms, this means she wasn't responsible for recent defeats.
If you read the leftist blogs, like KOS or Huffington, the storm of outright RACISM and HATRED being released is uuterly astounding...
These are comments from KOS alone in regard to OBAMA, from the last 24 hours:
"Children's Crusade"
"Happy Talk, Hope, and Fairy Dust Don't Win Elections"
"You Don't Bring "Kumbaya" To A Gunfight"
"Campaign of False Hopes"
Watching the Democratic Party rip it's own throat out is a simple pleasure, and we ALL knew it would eventually come to this.
Now she'll blow her top.
I actually think Hillary is the easiest to beat, then Edwards. The hardest will be Obama. The press will tout him as the 2nd coming of JFK and his beautiful young family fills that ticket well. The German press is all agape with JKF comparisons to JFK. His relative youth and vigor will play into that, too.
Our only hope is that they damage each other so much ala the Democrats have in the past (Dukakis, Kerry) that we don't necessarily "beat" them but the American people simply don't show up to vote for them. A slim hope, but more than I had two months ago.
Must means she bought glass ash trays to bounce off bills head. LOL
I would give anything to hear the names she called Obama, after Iowa, when there was no one to report what she said. I bet she turned the air blue, Mother++++ this and mother++++ that and he was a low down , etc, etc. Bet if wasn't PC ...
The megalomaniac as taken over the bridge, ship is doomed.
Don't be so sure...remember there are minions of brain-dead Dem voters coupled in with 'Rat voter fraud that can turn the trick for Hellary....we must be ever vigilant and we better have a decent nominee for the GOP....and we know them pickins' is slim.
Never in hell.
Are any of these charges false ? Just asking .
Remember when she said all the people were attacking her because she was the leader of all the polls? Haaaaaa.
Here comes the REAL HILLARY!!! Yeeeehaawww (Howard Dean scream)!
This is shaping up to be the most open contest ever..... Over the past month any number of these players could win it.... I do think Hillary would lose '08 hands down.... although if a Dim wins I could live with Obama as he will never get his ideas thru any legislation.
Probably not...
This KOS Comment pretty sums up the mood among the radical Clintonites:
"Confrontation is democracy, and do you really think playing nice is what we should do after Cheney, Karl Rove and their neocon brigade have destroyed the Constitution?
It's time to push the republicans back. Tell them to sit down and shut the f**k up. I almost want to throw up at how spineless this party is."
(my Profanity edit)
These people DO NOT want to play nice, they are demanding someone who will stand up for all they have been led to believe.
Their minds simply cannot adjust to the FACT that most of what they have been led to believe is utter BS, spewed by folks with an agenda FAR DIFFERENT than thier own.
Now that the useful idiots are no longer useful, they are almost in PAIN with thier rage...
Was this the entusiastic crowd she had bussed in from NY?
The ones that had a 2 day trip paid by the campaign?
The same ones who were asking some of the questions during her Q and A
Obama has a long way to go before America would give that amount of power to an empty suit.
Hillary in control, yep - that ought to do it!
"Hillary is a control freak, how can she take more control of something she already controls totally??"
How many times have we heard from her staff that EVERYTHING goes through and must be approved by HRC?
Of course, how many times have we heard HRC state she didn't know what her staff was doing, or saying?
But.... next time she would!
The entire Obama family had better watch their step with this woman.
Micromanaging everything.....
"Are any of these charges false ? Just asking ."
Yes. They all are.
But only a couple of them are about Obama.
You mean Hillary is blaming her staff because she went shrill and bugeyed when Johnny pushed her buttons? Boy, that got a lot of replay today. Huma should head for the hills.
"Obama has a long way to go before America would give that amount of power to an empty suit."
Well, we gave it to Jimmy Carter.
We have all got to stop underestimating the lengths this evil witch, her husband, and their ass-residing media whores will go to obtain the power she seeks.
I want to see this hag and her despicable teensy-pricked husband be humiliated and destroyed politically forever, but I will not believe the manufactured hype that she is done and over.
The Clintonistas will bring upwards of the wrath of HELL to get back into power. They literally will stop at nothing. We can't for a minute be so naive as to think she's gonna concede even though primary voters may reject her soundly.
I would so prefer fighting Obama for the presidency than the Clintons, because the Clintons bring nuclear weapons to the fight and they've proven they will gladly use them. They literally will kill to get that power back.
Everyone else brings their typical conventional idiot liberalist weapons to the fight, and I believe those weapons have run their course on a suspecting public.
The Clintons are evil. The other liberals are merely moonbat, idiot, morons with no common sense or ability to tackle real-world problems and crises.
I'll take that anytime over the biblical evil I believe the Clintons possess.
"That hurts my feelings", demurred, then changed her face like Erin, in The Exorcist, and said, "but, I'll be all-right."
-—— (what wasn't said. Note: satire follows)
"And we know what happens to those who hurt my feelings!
I'll be all-right, but they better start worrying if they will."
(Sorry, had another brain cloud.)
Are any of these charges false ? Just asking .
No. They are all true.
But only a couple of them are about Obama.
Time for a little blue on blue.
About time.Now she can really flop.
THAT is Hillary's nature. She bosses the "little people" around, and NOBODY better cross her, or they'll end up in a park playing a fatal game of Russian Roulette.
Obama is scary ... he just might pull it off.
And, why in the world would these PC idiots still have ash-trays around, anyway? Sets a bad example for the children, don'tcha know...
Oh, and better not let any of those FJB's get within a hundred feet of the witch (if they know what's good for them, that is)... Except maybe Sid Vicious... They were made for each other...
I hope she's really pretty effective at what she does, when she takes the helm.
What we need, is for Hillary to come back after Obama and take it into the convention.
How long has Hillary been planning to be POTUS? 65 years? It seems longer.
She has brilliantly assembled the A TEAM of political advisers.
Imported exotic domestic luxuries from far away Saudi Arabia.
Her regal team has been far better trained than ordinary teams.
Still, in the heat of the political battle, this is a job only for... Super Washington Woman; and that dear friends, is what happened to the boys in Vietnam. Don't let history repeat itself.
If we put up another RINO, it's all over.
They are merely preparing her for taking "charge" of her comeback.

|In response to Re: Water pressure from shower head stops and goes and then the eventually stops
: My shower consists of the type where there are three valves. The left and right valve control the hot and cold water and the center valve controls where the water comes from. The shower is fine when the water comes from the bottom faucet. However, when water comes from the shower head, the water pressure jerks and the water comes on and off. Eventually the water pressure stops. This occurs when only the hot is on, only when the cold is on, or when both hot and cold are on. I tried replacing the shower head and still the same problem occurs. So, I took off the shower head and the same problem occurs without the shower head on. What should I do?

It seems that someone here needs to express some ideas regarding a possible war with Iraq. I have to assume that other people will think differently than I, but I would hope they will be open to someone else's way of thinking.
As far as I see/hear, our leaders have been pressed into waiting for the UN inspectors to be over before they go ahead with their plans to attack. I do not hear of any on-going efforts to work toward a peaceful resolution of what began in '91. And it does take patience.
Some things to consider:
1)War has never brought peace, but only more hatred and suffering. (Need examples?)
2)The CIA has said that Saddam would never use any weapons he may have as long as he is left alone.
3)We blame others for having "weapons of mass destruction" while we continue to hold them. In fact, Bush, when he came into office, withdrew from the ABM Treaty that we recently were disturbed about because North Korea said they withdrew from it.
4)We also continue to increase our "weapons of mass destruction."
5)Oil is a very likely probable reason behind the movement toward this war. Yet it is important for the health of all, that we move away from oil use. It is possible.
6)As funds are removed from human needs to make weapons and war, needy people anywhere are more lilkely to become restive to be heard, peaceably if possible, but with violence if they despair of peaceful means.
7)As citizens of the U.S. we have a responsibility to think and make our thoughts known to our leaders. It does make a difference. Even if it seems not to do so.

CHESTER - It would be easy to make the comparisons to Chester being much like their cartoon hero, Popeye, in the fact that CHS ate some spinach and was strong to the finish in their 51-13 victory over Eldorado Friday night.
The fact of the matter is the Yellow Jackets didn't just sting the Eagles, but dominated Eldorado in the ground game, mucking up 483 yards to Eldorado's 144 in the mud and rain as Chester clinched the Black Diamond Conference to remain perfect on the season, improving to 7-0.
Eldorado, now 4-3, have two games remaining on its slate and need at least one more win, against either Vienna-Goreville or Sesser-Valier-Waltonville-Woodlawn to become playoff eligible.
While panic hasn't struck the nerve of head coach Brandon Hampton just yet, there were some unsettling things the fifth-year head coach saw at W.O. Smith Field.
"It was nasty field position for us almost all night," Hampton said. "It became a battle of who could limit the center-quaterback exchange and the turnover battle there. It got the best of us (Friday), but the reality is this, Chester out played us, they were the better team coming in (record wise) and unfortunately when you're the underdog, you've got to do a really good job of controlling the football and limiting the big plays."
The big play is ultimately what got the best of the Eagles Friday night as Chester got a second quarter touchdown by Stephen Roth for 34 yards and a 54-yard TD run by Joel Clendenin in the third quarter.
Clendenin did the most damage for the Yellow Jackets, rushing for 204 yards on 18 carries and finishing with four touchdowns.
Of the 144 yards Eldorado had on the ground, 81 of it came off one run by Tyler Deaton as he broke free from the right side and busted loose down the Chester sideline en route to a first quarter touchdown.
The score made it 7-6, but the Yellow Jackets would go on to score 34 unanswered points en route to the win.
The only other touchdown for Eldorado came a little more than midway in the fourth quarter when defensive lineman Justin Wiseman picked off a Chester interception and rumbled down the field for a 65-yard score.
Eldorado will now set its sights on the final two regular season games of the season, both at Boz-Adams field where they will take on a pair of teams with a combined record of 9-6.
Vienna-Goreville became playoff eligible with a weekend win over Christopher-Zeigler-Royalton and S-V-W-W (4-3) knocked off Carmi-White County Friday night 20-6 and is on a three-game winning streak.

The Glorious Prophet Elias (Elijah)
The Gospel according to Luke 4:22-30
At that time, the crowd spoke of him, and wondered at the gracious words which proceeded out of his mouth; and they said, "Is not this Joseph's son?" And he said to them, "Doubtless you will quote to me this proverb, 'Physician, heal yourself; what we have heard you did at Capernaum, do here also in your own country.'" And he said, "Truly, I say to you, no prophet is acceptable in his own country. But in truth, I tell you, there were many widows in Israel in the days of Elijah, when the heaven was shut up three years and six months, when there came a great famine over all the land; and Elijah was sent to none of them but only to Zarephath, in the land of Sidon, to a woman who was a widow. And there were many lepers in Israel in the time of the prophet Elisha; and none of them was cleansed but only Naaman the Syrian." When they heard this, all in the synagogue were filled with wrath. And they rose up and put him out of the city, and led him to the brow of the hill on which their city was built, that they might throw him down headlong. But passing through the midst of them he went away.

Why Isn't Anyone Protecting Michigan from the Crotch-Bomber?
Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab, the man who attempted to blow up his crotch on a flight to Detroit, is being held in a federal prison in Michigan. His bail is scheduled to be set on January 8. Where is the outrage?
As we all know, especially if we listen to jackass House Republicans, holding terrorists or would-be terrorists or non-terrorists accused of terrorism in prisons inside US borders is basically like giving them a free ticket to Disneyland and telling them to go nuts. It is basically a death sentence for your children.
Liz Cheney tried to warn us! Pete Hoekstra tried to warn us! According to Pete, once Gitmo prisoners to go Michigan, they will get something called "rights," and those "rights" include the right to blow up your house and cancel Christmas retroactively.
But no one is bitching about this Abdulmutallab guy being held in Michigan! Liz Cheney hasn't even said anything! That is so weird!

Rare titles, other treasures at Elm Grove library's annual book sale
Proceeds will allow Elm Grove Library to purchase new materials
The Friends of Elm Grove Library is hosting its 27th Used Book and More sale in March 8 through 10 at the village's library.
But this isn't your average book sale event.
The annual fundraiser helps support the library and attracts hundreds of people each day of the sale from the Milwaukee metropolitan area.
"We have a large selection of material," said Pat Ruttum, Friends of Elm Grove Library chair. "We have paperbacks, hard covers, large print, and small paper books, CD's, DVD's and video cassettes."
The sale was started by members of FOEGL years ago and featured a small selection of books. It was held twice a year in a small room in the library.
Now, the event offers more than 20,000 items to choose from.
The books are donated by area residents and schools, and at some point, boxes of donations are stacked as high as the ceiling in the library's basement.
Ruttum said preparing for the event is fun, but is also a lot of work, with intense sorting and organization required for each item.
"Our volunteers sort through each box and we separate material by category," Ruttum said.
Ten students from Brookfield East High School helped the team sort through material Thursday, Ruttum said, classifying each book by category, such as art, biography, business, travel, health, games and gardening.
"There's something for everyone at this sale," Ruttum said.
Hidden treasures
All books are priced between 50 cents and $2, with the exception of a few special items priced between $4-20.
"The special table has 450 to 500 books," Ruttum said. "We look up the value for each item we receive. Those that are first edition, have certain pictures, special spinning and no foxing (water spots) are more valuable."
Ruttum said book collectors found items of special value for a steal at past sales, so FOEGL had to learn which books had more value and treat them as such.
"We had to teach ourselves about the art of a book sale," she said. "Book collectors know what to look for, so we had to learn the value of a good book, too."
Some of the items on this year's special table include a signed copy of George Watts' "Insurrection in Milwaukee: The Right to Rise" and first edition titles published in the 1800s and early 1900s.
During sorting, Ruttum said, unexpected treasures are sometimes found in books.
Some of the items are donated after the death of a loved one, and donors are unaware that items of sentimental value are hiding between pages.
"We've found jewelry, money, postcards, bookmarks and photos hiding in books," Ruttum said. "Just a few weeks ago, I found a letter written by Archibald Cox to a supporter, thanking them for their support during Watergate."
Booking benefits
"After the sale, we vote to disperse a certain amount of funds raised to Elm Grove Library," Ruttum said. "There is one condition. Funds must be used for library material only, like new books, CDs, DVDs, etc. Funds are not to be used for construction or other physical upgrades to the library."
Last year's sale raised more than $20,000.
Svetlana Foley, director of Elm Grove Library, said the annual book sale is vital.
"The Friends group is so supportive and passionate," Foley said. "Because of the sale, we are able to offer a variety of material that makes us more unique than other libraries in the area."
Sale information
The sale takes place at the Elm Grove Library, 13600 Juneau Blvd.
A special preview night will be held March 7 from 6 to 9 p.m., free for FOEGL members or $10 membership fee at the door.
Admission is free during the main event, with the sale starting at 9 a.m. on March 8 and 9, and starting at noon on March 10.
All items will be half price March 9, with a "$5 a bag" special on March 10.
For more information, call (262) 782-6717 or FriendsofElmGroveLibrary.org.

At the 2009 IIE Gala, Maestro Lorin Maazel received the Fritz Redlich Alumni Award, which recognizes alumni of IIE and IIE-administered programs who contribute innovative ideas, valuable knowledge and dedication to the cause of mutual understanding and international cooperation. Maazel received a Fulbright grant to Italy in 1951
Alongside his prodigious performing activity, Maestro Maazel has found time to work with and nurture young artists, based on his strong belief in the value of sharing his experience with the next generation(s) of musicians. He founded a major competition for young conductors in 2000, and has since been an active mentor to many of the finalists. Through his Châteauville Foundation, in Castleton, Virginia, he has created a new festival/residency program for young artists.
Among Maestro Maazel honors, decorations, and awards are the Commander's Cross of Merit of the Federal Republic of Germany, the Legion of Honor of France, the Knight Grand Cross from the Republic of Italy, and the Commander of the Lion of Finland. He also has been awarded the title of Goodwill Ambassador by the United Nations, and is the recipient of two ASCAP awards for contributions to American music.


text: In this case, all Heat fans paid a premium to see a "top-tier" team and didn't get what they paid for, so I agree with you that the fans got stiffed, but the fact there are "top-tier" and "lower-tier" teams in the first place is the bigger issue. Of course, if there was a CBA in place that allowed teams to build and/or retain competitive rosters regardless of which home market they played in, and which reduced the gap between the "have multiple All-Star" and "have no All-Stars" teams, there might not be this issue, but Stern has already whiffed on fixing that. Instead we have the same disparity between franchises that we had before the lockout.

Love Endangered Species Chocolate!
Posted by Reviewer3339977 on Mar 24, 2012
I am always looking for the perfect combination of healthy and flavorful and Endangered Species is it! I have tried several brands of healthy dark chocolate and this continues to beat them all for me. This bar is not loaded with sugar, yet it is not bitter. It is smooth and contains delicious blueberries in every bite. Try Endangered Species in any flavor you think you will like and I do not believe you will be disappointed!
I did not like
Posted by FataMorgana on Jun 13, 2011
I'm sorry, but the taste of chocolate I did not like. Despite the fact that the content of cocoa in it very much.
Blueberries are good for eyes, so I liked it
Posted by NataliyaKvitka on Aug 13, 2012
Blueberries are good for eyes, so I ordered this. Chocolate is a bit too bitter, but otherwise it's nice. // Заказываю все с черникой, из-за пользы для глаз. Шоколад немного горьковат, но в целом неплохой.
Very yummy
Posted by Reviewer1128681 on Mar 30, 2012
I agree with most of comments - there could be more blueberries. However, I really enjoyed this chocolate, it's really tasty with a nice hint of blueberries.
Must buy, great taste!
Posted by 5489124921693755372 on Jan 15, 2013
I love Endangered Species Chocolate! if you are looking for chocolate with great taste, but still not packed with calories, buy these! Ive seen that some people have been receiving the chocolate in destroyed packages and that it tasted ''old''. Mine were perfect, and again, the taste is awesome, personally I am not really a huge fan of dark chocolate, its always too bitter for me, but this company actually made them taste sweeter... so great for us with a sweet tooth :)! This blue chocolate is not packed with blueberries, but I don't really find that a problem since its pretty good, the others, like the one with raspberries is REALLY full with them :)
Posted by HildeK on Jul 08, 2012
Good, dark and smooth chocolate. Not to sweet. Would prefer if it was a bit more berries in it, but it is really nice. The company policy also makes this a good gift for people interested in animals and environmental causes.
It is very good.

oh, I like it.It is so delivious
Very good
Posted by yashtuchka on Aug 29, 2012
Приятный темный шоколад, попадаются мелкие ягодки сушеной черники, но я бы не сказала, что они сильно чувствуются и влияют на вкус. Они есть но их там не очень много. Как темный шоколад очень хорош. В каждой шоколадке внутри напечатана информация о том животном, которое изображено на лицевой части плитки. A nice dark chocolate, dried berries come across small blueberries, but I would not say that they strongly felt and affect the taste. They are, but they were not very many. How dark chocolate is very good. Each chocolate bar inside the printed information on the animal as shown in the face of the tile
Awesome taste

By Brendan Conway
The argument at the International Strategy & Investment Group this morning is just that — buy the biotech sector. Take advantage of declining stock prices in a niche offering strong growth and (gulp) attractive valuations.
The firm's Joe Ruggieri and Matt Calder are taking cues from the activity in iShares Nasdaq Biotechnology ETF (IBB), which has just seen a flood of redemption activity and some unusually sharp price moves in the market for options on the ETF.
Redemptions mean investors are taking money out of the fund. As ISI notes in a morning client email, "Historically, large redemptions in the IBB have marked the start of a significant rally for the group."
In the options market, the ISI strategists note, the key gauge of risk pricing has shot up to levels last seem in 2011. Those elevated implied-volatility readings "commonly suggest fear levels associated with capitulation bottoms," they write.
Neil Leeson of Ned Davis Research reached a similar conclusion with different metrics when I contacted him on the subject last week. He noted that, heading into mid-March, much as biotech has a reputation for shooting higher, there had been seven pullbacks in biotech ETFs in the previous year of greater than 5%. All during a remarkable period of gains for the group.
The pullbacks averaged 7.6%, with an average length of 16 trading sessions. The takeaway: "[Y]ou have to expect some volatility when you are buying biotechs."
So what about the sector's demanding valuations? ISI isn't troubled. Neither are Stifel Nicholaus' Joel D. Sendek, Brian Klein and Stephen D. Willey, who write this morning that there is "no bubble in our view, though some stocks are starting to get pricey":
We expect the biotech rally to continue because we are not in a valuation bubble: We estimate the long-term P/E to growth ratio for biotech to be 1.5. We are now trading below 1.7, nowhere near the 2000 biotech bubble P/E to growth ratio of 3.9. Average long-term EPS growth rate of large-cap biotech companies is 22%.
I'd simply point out that "pricey" is in the eye of the beholder — and in which metrics you use to measure valuations. From the weekend Barron's print ETF Focus column:
At some point, investors will demand strong earnings and resist extreme valuations. The price-earnings ratio of the SPDR S&P Biotech ETF (XBI) is a rich 33 times trailing earnings, versus the S&P 500′s 17, says Morningstar. But Morningstar removes unprofitable firms from the tally. Add them back in and tally the losses against the prices, and the P/E multiple would be a negative 19, according to ETF.com's Matt Hougan–if such a thing were possible.
The other caveat: All these observations are backward-looking. Correlation between two variables is fine and dandy, but it doesn't prove causation.
The biotech sector is enjoying a small bounce on Tuesday, with the iShares and SPDR ETFs gaining 0.9% and 0.2%, respectively. Market Vectors Biotech ETF (BBH) is ahead by 0.6% and leveraged ETFs ProShares Ultra Nasdaq Biotechnology (BIB) and ProShares UltraShort Nasdaq Biotechnology (BIS) are moving about 2% piece.

The BLM uses freeze marking to identify wild horses and burros that have been gathered from the public rangelands because of overpopulation. Freeze marking is a permanent, unalterable, and painless way to identify each horse. The mark follows the International Alpha Angle System, which uses a series of angles and alpha-symbols that cannot be altered. The mark contains the Registering Organization (U.S. Government), year of birth, and registration number.
The technique is simple and completely painless to the animal. The left side of the neck is shaved and washed with alcohol, and the symbols are applied with an iron chilled in liquid nitrogen. The hair at the site of the mark will grow back white and show the identification number.
Mares that have received fertility control vaccines are usually freeze marked with an identifying brand on their left croup, although some have identifying freeze marks on their necks.
In addition to the freeze mark that all horses and burros removed from the range receive on the left side of the neck, sanctuary mustangs are marked on the left croup with four inch-high Arabic numerals that correspond with the last four digits of the freeze mark on the neck.
Although every effort is made to apply freeze marks that are legible, occasionally freezemarks do get blurred. This happens when the iron is applied: the animal moves and all or some of the identification number cannot be read. It can also be difficult to read some freeze marks because of the color of the animal.
The following graph illustrates how to read a freeze mark. If a mark is difficult to read, we recommend shaving the left side of the neck. You must know the freeze mark of your wild horse or burro before you make an inquiry to a BLM office.

Too narrow for me.
"These are beautiful casual sandals! The leather is soft and shiny and the elastic makes them a perfect, comfy fit around the ankle. That said, they were way too narrow for my feet. I always wear a 7.5 and all my shoes are regular width, but I do consider my feet to be on the wider side. Almost half my pinky toe fell of the side of these. So sad as they are really lovely! I'm sure these wold be perfect for someone with a more narrow foot."
