Can You Help America?
Are you willing to give five minutes or more of your time to think about a solution to a very costly problem that exists in every State in the Union?
If you listen to Rush Limbaugh on TV or on his radio show, you will hear him discuss how dumb and ineffective Democrats can be. He has been saying that the Democrats are only good at whining about problems, not at fixing problems. Rush says the Republicans are the only party that actually fixes problems. Do you believe this? FreeRepublic.com is overflowing with Republicans isn't it? I propose that the Republican FReepers attempt to find a solution to this major problem and demonstrate to America just how effective Republicans (and FReepers) can be.
In the early 1960s, approximately 62,000 illegal aliens came across the Mexican border, and the INS considered this notable and worthy of action. Now, in the first decade of the 21st Century, hundreds of thousands of illegal aliens enter the United States across the Mexican border each year and the INS declares the problem too big to tackle because nothings stems the tide. Federal immigration laws state that sneaking into America without going through the INS Border Patrol stations is illegal. Hiring an illegal alien is illegal. Sheltering an illegal alien is illegal. And keeping knowledge from law enforcement as to the whereabouts of an illegal alien is illegal. With Agenda 21, the politicians are looking at every way possible to give those who break these laws a pass by granting amnesty and American citizenship to illegal immigrants. Agenda 21 means effectively removing the borders between Mexico and the US. NAFTA just opened our roads to tractor trailers from Mexico. This situation will become much worse.
This problem has been ignored in just about every city and county in America while costing exorbitant amounts of taxpayer dollars, spent on social welfare and the education of illegal aliens. Ignoring this problem also comes with the cost of an increasing crime rate resulting in too many American citizens being victims at the hands of illegal aliens. Governments at all levels, federal, state and local are not protecting America's federal nor State sovereignty,. nor are they protecting American citizens.
Why should you and I support a federal lawbreaker in our State? So an incumbent politician can get reelected with their illegal vote? I don't think so!
Matricula consular identification cards are solid identification of an illegal allien. If you can't show a birth certificate, a Visa or a green card then you are an illegal alien who has broken our immigration laws. They must leave America and reenter within our laws. We shouldn't have to amend our laws to accommidate lawbreakers! What example does that set for those who are attempting to enter America legally? Much more important: What example does this give our children? That breaking the law can be a rewarding act? If our immigration laws carry no penalty for being broken, why should bank robbery, or molesting children be punished? Do we make our laws for them to be ignored by aliens and politicians? Is a vote more precious than our standards and ideals? Our politicians must believe so, judging from their responses.
The words "protect the people" are found in virtually every Oath of Office taken by elected and appointed officials in the US, including the police chiefs, mayors, county sheriffs, state legislators, governors, congressional representatives, and senators. Sadly, not one of these officials on the public dole is taking their Oath of Office seriously when it comes to the issue of illegal immigration.
The Supreme Court of the United States has wisely ruled that the Feds cannot force state, county or city law enforcement officers to enforce federal laws (including immigration laws), and our local and state officials use this as an excuse to turn their heads on the problem of illegal immigration while our communities slide steadily downhill. Government officials continue to demand higher taxes to keep the illegal immigration problems under "control" yet we can only sit back in wonderment as they pay lip service to the problem while actually enacting legislation and policies that encourage people to emigrate to the US illegally with promises of social welfare and education benefits.
Being an American is a primarily a state of mind for all of us - being a proud American is based on the idea of freedom and self-reliance. We are all immigrants from one country or another, and we (or our forebears) became Americans by consciously subscribing to these ideas. We came here legally, we obey the laws and we promote the idea that others obey the laws in the same way. Are we supposed to sit and wait while the political class comes up with the politically correct so-called solutions that fail to keep America strong and our families safe?
How many foreign college students choose each year to stay in America rather than obey the conditions upon which they entered America? How many older vistors choose to stay at the end of their vacations? How many deported criminal aliens return using a different name? How many Muslims are in America illegally studing our open way of life, just waiting for an opportunity to repeat 9/11? I am sure we have illegal aliens from every country in this world enjoying the American lifestyle, helping to bring us down to a third world power. We aren't too far from becoming the country that these people left. The American culture can only absorb so many new residents each year without radical changes. We have passed that number. We must act now before the policical leaders offer them amnesty and permanently defeat our way of life. The time has come to stand up and fight for what we believe in. The Constitution will become wastepaper. The Bill of Rights will become a memory. Our flag will become a symbol of defeat.
If you have listened to Rush, you know the truth of his broadcasts. If you haven't listened to him, here's an opportunity for you to show how good FReeper Republicans can be at finding solutions to our nationwide illegal immigration problems.
So tell us, what should be done to fix the problems of illegal immigration in your community?
#1. Should we acquiesce and allow the illegal immigration to continue while waiting for the elected officials to address the problem in a substantive way?
#2. Should we wait for Federal legislators to compromise our security and way of life by resolving the problem in a manner that is politically correct and acceptable to every nation in the world?
#3. If we continue to send snail mail and email letters to your local and State leaders. Will the roar be ever loud enough to be heard in the highest offices? What will their response be? Submition to illegal immigrants who want to change America forever?
#4. Should we wait until you fly off the handle and lash out at an illegal alien, surely resulting in legal problems that will further harm your family and ruin your life's ambition to be a good and loyal American citizen?
#5. Should you ignore the illegal immigration problem and hope it will go away before it gets much worse?
What should YOU do?
What should WE do?
It is time to stand together to correct this problem. You are the leader in your family. Your kids look to you to protect them. If you don't help us now, will your children be able to look at you with pride or shame in five years. It's your freedom and your way of life that is up for grabs.
The new way of life
Immediately start a web "RED-LIST" of your area's employers that hire and employ illegal aliens.
Include your local DMV, Social Services, and Social Security Administration offices, state government, county government, and city government if they also do.
Yes, the SSA also has illegal aliens on the payroll today!
Any corporation such as Tyson Foods should be on your "RED-LIST" because they not only willfully and knowingly hire and employ illegal aliens, they actually recruit them in Mexico and transport, feed, and house them to states like Oklahoma and Arkansas to displace honest local taxpaying American citizen workers.
The wages in food processing and many other industries have been driven down deliberately by Tyson and other corporations and not just in union states or jobs.
Step #2 -
Post a "certified & bonded" list of corporate employers, stores, small businesses that comply with only hiring and employing legal American workers and only buy and/or do business with employers or government agencies that also comply with this policy.
Refuse to bid on any government service or supply if your government employees illegal aliens.
Publish any company and government agency that does plus the names of the CEOs, management, 'human resources' managers, and all the addresses (home and office), phone #s, email account addresses, fax #s, etc.
Simply 'label' these employers as knowing and willful scofflaws that are ripping off honest American taxpayers for financial greed and/or 'certain possible alleged' illegal intentions.
Watch the fur fly!
This is 100% legal -
If any 'immigrant?' group or the ACLU screams, just point out they are publicly encouraging the breaking of federal stautes are are therefore participating in a conspiracy against the honest American taxpayers and citizens.
Note that no new laws need to be passed or politicians or bureaucrats kissed up to for this action to start.
Label any and all dissenters as "scofflaws", "lawbreakers", "conspirators", "Anti-American", "anti-worker", "anti-security", or any number of names that they cannot refute with their 'fairness' defense.
Remember, when you travel or move to Mexico you cannot pull all the illegal BS down there that Mexico Mexicans, and all the other 4th world nations like Somalia, Kenya, Zimbabwe, Pakistan, Afghanistan, Nigeria, Russia, etc do.
If anyone has some psuedo-legalistic reason why this cannot be done please post it on this thread with your legal precedents enumerated please.
Stand up or give up.
It's your country.
It's your kids.
It's time.

I come for visit, get treated regal,
So I stay, who care I illegal?
I cross border, poor and broke,
Take bus, see employment folk.
Nice man treat me good in there,
Say I need to see welfare.
Welfare say, "You come no more,
We send cash right to your door."
Welfare checks, they make you wealthy,
Medicaid it keep you healthy!
By and by, I got plenty money,
Thanks to you, American dummy.
Write to friends in motherland,
Tell them come as fast as you can.
They come in rags and Chebby trucks,
I buy big house with welfare bucks.
They come here, we live together,
More welfare checks, it gets better!
Fourteen families they moving in,
But neighbor's patience wearing thin.
Finally, white guy moves away,
Now I buy his house, and then I say,
"Find more alien! s for house to rent."
And in the yard I put a tent.
Send for family (they just trash),
But they, too, draw the welfare cash!
Everything is mucho good,
And soon we own the neighborhood.
We have hobby--it's called breeding,
Welfare pay for baby feeding.
Kids need dentist? Wife need pills?
We get free! We got no bills!
American crazy! He pay all year,
To keep welfare running here.
We think America darn good place!
Too darn good for the white man race.
If they no like us, they can go,
Got lots of room in Mexico.
Agenda 21 happens to be that of the Bush family and the globalists in charge behind them.
Given that our government is generally made up of elected people, start by unelecting those who are not worthy of your votes. Sending a million letters to your GOP reps means nothing if, on election day, you end up voting for them anyway "to prevent the greater eeeevil" and they know that. Find viable alternatives and support THEM in the primaries and, if the incumbent SOB's win, do NOT vote for them. Find someone from the 'other' parties and vote for them.
The NRA does this, if I am not mistaken.
Someday Mexico (for all its ills) may be a more fit place to live than here. Could happen.
Less urgent, but still important, we will have a big problem that a lot of people aren't thinking about. Mexico has a tradition of corruption, like all Latino countries. That corruption is at its highest at the Mexico/US border, where mob activity is thriving. Latino illegal immigrants are very cynical about any shred of integrity in either government. And, not being conversant with US issues or US history from a US perspective, they are the perfect suckers for the DNC, aren't they? I'm beginning to wonder if a flood of immigration helped trigger the Income tax and all the other idiocy that started taking over in the first half of last century.
All the illegals are flocking in to take low-paying jobs while better-paying jobs are diminishing in this country every year.
I'm sorry I come across as defeatist, but that's the way I see it.
And I'm not sure it is morally ethical to keep them out, even though I don't like what is happening in this country.
Sooner or later the economic bubble will burst because it has been propped up artificially for too long. Then what?
THEN WE FIGHT HARDER! This is OUR home!
The demand cycle heats up. Need new line workers. Union start rate 15-18/per hr. + benefits after 3 months.
Hire trainees. Local HS Grads and street corner loafers. they have, I have observed: (A)No physical ability, i.e. an 8-hour day is killer! (b) No reading and writing ability which translates into a profound inability to follow written instructions (c)No shift discipline, i.e. ability to show upn time for shift or 5 0r 6 days in a row. (D) It also goes without saying that they have had no mechanical training, which gave older workers a modicum of industrial "common sense." They in some cases must be tiaught to use a screwdriver, and the accident rates among new hires are very high.
Out of 30 or 40 hired, 3 or four make it through 90 days. Older workers take up slack and love it for the overtime.
Slow-down after 3rd quarter. Sack all the new people who are left. High pay, low productivity. Cheaper to pay old-timers (heavy attrition among them anyway) who are left, some overtime.
Next time the cycle heats up, managers hire temporary workers: $10-13 an hour paid to an agency, no benefits. In many New England scenarios, these new temps are going to be illegal Mexicans, or equivalent. The fact that they cannot speak English at first or not read and write is no more of a supervisory problem than using HS Grads. They will be on time. They will work a full week. Come next cycle, throw'em out. Start over when you need them.
Sooner or later, some corporate people logically deduce that it would be cheaper to build a maquiladora on the South Side of the border and leave it closed three months a year.
Soon there is no work in the village and we are left with a huge illegal population and every one is poor. It comes as a shock to the union jocks who gave in to a two-tier wage system: i.e. Good wages for them and benefits: Poor wages and no benefits for temps.
Pardon the condensation, but the pattern is the same all over New England. This country, if my region and experience are valid examples, is not ready for globalization. Our younger people are not properly prepared.
We desperately need to improve the preparation of our "MTV" people, in school and on the job with a training wage setup so employers can afford to train them for a couple of years. They need it. They are simply not prepared mentally or physically, to perform in a business setting.
Because of the short-comings of today's younger people (which is certainly NOT THEIR FAULT), illegal aliens (now instantly deliverable where and as needed by 18-wheeler) are taking over vast swaths of the bedrock industrial jobs. Stopping this destructive trend will certainly take border discipline, but we also have to do away with the economic need for them on this side of the border by training our own people.
It ain't gonna be easy. There is no leadership coming from either party, or even the unions on this.
1....An immediate moratorium on immigration waivers and new applications in the pipeline until major changes are made and the system re-vamped.
2...Under the new Homeland Security Dept., we need to create a massive border security program. We need to expand the border patrol by 150 to 200 thousand members.
We need to do this under the civil service programs that bush has been touting. We may need to re-establish the draft for this purpose. Not for the military, but for a cadre of our young people to protect our borders, while at the same time, giving two years of service to the country.
We can train and board them at un-used military bases. We can give them educational opportunities under the GI bill and a small but adequate allowance for someone who is provided three squares and base housing.
In return, they can get their civil service requirement out of the way, get educational benefits and the experience of training and military discipline. Some may want to continue in a military career.
What say you?
I'm 44 years old but you sold me. Where do I sign up?
I have recieved some interesting supportive responses for this idea. I have not seen anyone else advocate anything like it.
I wonder if it might grow legs?
Can anyone see a downside?
Good point, but this has indeed been addressed before and in failed miserably.
False documents and cash payrolls defeated any progress. Families that are now in place provided a place to live, etc.
My first thought was the necessity for these new border guards to be armed. Thus, I see the potential for a number of unfortunate shootings as a result of the lack of quality recruits entering this new civil service. They would need to be very well trained before being unleashed.
It's one thing to mold a Marine recruit to kill in a foriegn land. Quite another to unleash a less qualified individual on our own soil toting the same weaponry...or close to it.
All of which can be dealt with by selecting quality applicants and training them properly.
Frankly, I see no reason for all of them to be armed. Modern non-lethal defensive weapons would be sufficient. An armed special unit could cover any situations where arms may be needed. (regarding the Mexicali's)
That has already happened to lots of people. Many, many others are dropouts and we are paying for them through social security disability, and on and on.
The only way I see things getting better is for the cost of living to go way down. Even then there wouldn't be the type of jobs to support it for enough people.
Come on. We are living on borrowed time and borrowed money. It won't last forever.
This is a problem than can't be solved by fighting. Sorry I feel that way. I don't know where it will end.
In the meantime, I think people who are in thinking mode should think as innovatively as they can and try to make their own jobs somehow and not depend on corporate or government daddies who only enslave you in the long run.
We have almost 1/5 of our population having jobs paid for out of tax revenues at the federal, state, and local levels. These jobs contribute NOTHING to the GNP. Then we have thousands of jobs which suck up money in the health and insurance fields. All necessary, I suppose, but produce no revenue. Most of the rest of the jobs pander to people who don't or can't do things for themselves like service, carpet installation/cleaning, etc.
Farmers are another category and the average person can never hope to break into that field.
What kinds of jobs are left for our kids? Even college is going to be no guarantee to get and keep a job that will keep one in a decent lifestyle in the future.
try not to think in military terms, but more along police and security lines.
For God's sake, this is the same town where a little over a year ago they arrested almost all the workers from China who were illegally working in the Chinese restuarant. It was no problem for them to do that, yet they conveniently ignore the workers who are flipping tortillas!
Mind you, my family comes from Scandanavian roots. But we are blessed with spouses and new relatives by marriage who are here legally from Mexico. I cherish them more than anything! But I watched as one of the relatives paid $1,000 to have her sister brought across the border to find work. She was provided with new papers. I am very conflicted because I realize that this particular girl is very likely to be a contributor to our economy and probably should have been allowed to come here because she had a sponsor who could afford to assist her while she looks for work. What has happened to the legal process of being able to bring people in who are responsible? It doesn't seem to even exist anymore! It is frustrating for the people who would actually like to do things the right way but can't. Any one of us can probably point to places where illegals are employed, many of whom are paid under the counter in cash. But you know darn well if I can point to them, so can the authorities. And they DO NOTHING!
The problem that we have is not the fact that we allow immigration, it is the fact that they are coming in illegally, and in too great a number to assimilate in a organized and careful way.
This must stop now! The stability of our governments at the state and local level is at stake. Even national programs are being sapped of scarce resources.
The safety of our people is at stake, and our children are at risk.

Google discloses ex-Pixar CFO's legal trouble — but Disney doesn't
The stock-options backdating scandal, which bored Silicon Valley the day the SEC first announced its investigations, continues. The latest to disclose a brush with the law: Google. Google has not been accused of misleading investors by moving up the grant date of stock options, making them more profitable for the executives who received them. But Google board member Ann Mather, the former CFO of animation studio Pixar, has, and the SEC is now initiating legal proceedings against her.
Here's what's odd: Pixar is now owned by Disney, which cleared everyone "currently associated" with the company of wrongdoing. That includes Steve Jobs, Pixar's former CEO, now a Disney board member, but leaves Mather out in the cold. So far out that Disney itself hasn't disclosed her legal jeopardy to its own shareholders — the people whose Mather's Pixar backdating most affected.

Chapter 20
Benhadad of Syria makes war with Israel—The Syrians are defeated twice—Ahab lets Benhadad go free, contrary to the will of the Lord.
1 And Ben-hadad the king of Syria gathered all his host together: and there were thirty and two kings with him, and horses, and chariots: and he went up and besieged Samaria, and warred against it.
2 And he sent messengers to Ahab king of Israel into the city, and said unto him, Thus saith

5 And the messengers came again, and said, Thus speaketh Ben-hadad, saying, Although I have sent unto thee, saying, Thou shalt deliver me thy silver, and thy gold, and thy wives, and thy children;
6 Yet I will send my servants unto thee to morrow about this time, and they shall search thine house, and the houses of thy servants; and it shall be, that whatsoever is pleasant in

9 Wherefore he said unto the messengers of Ben-hadad, Tell my lord the king, All that thou didst send for to thy servant at the first I will do: but this thing I may not do. And the messengers departed, and brought him word again.
10 And Ben-hadad sent unto him, and said, The

17 And the young men of the princes of the provinces went out first; and Ben-hadad sent out, and they told him, saying, There are men come out of Samaria.
18 And he said, Whether they be come out for peace, take them alive; or whether they be come out for war, take them alive.
19 So these young men of the princes of the provinces came out of the city, and the army which followed them.
20 And they slew every one his man: and the Syrians fled; and Israel pursued them: and Ben-hadad the king of Syria escaped on an horse with the horsemen.
21 And the king of Israel went out, and smote the horses and chariots, and slew the Syrians with a great slaughter.
22 ¶And the prophet came to the king of Israel, and said unto him, Go, strengthen thyself, and mark, and see what
23 And the servants of the king of Syria said unto him, Their gods are gods of the hills; therefore they were stronger than we; but let us fight against them in the plain, and surely we shall be stronger than they.
24 And do this thing, Take the kings away, every man out of his place, and put captains in their rooms:
25 And number thee an army, like the army that thou hast lost, horse for horse, and chariot for chariot: and we will fight against them in the plain, and surely we shall be stronger than they. And he hearkened unto their voice, and did so.
26 And it came to pass at the return of the year, that Ben-hadad numbered the Syrians, and went up to Aphek, to fight against Israel.
27 And the children of Israel were numbered, and
28 ¶And there came a man of God, and spake unto the king of Israel, and said, Thus saith the Lord, Because the Syrians have said, The Lord is God of the hills, but he is not God of the valleys, therefore will I deliver all this great multitude into thine hand, and ye shall know that I am the Lord.
29 And they pitched one over against the other seven days. And so it was, that in the seventh day the battle was joined: and the children of Israel slew of the Syrians an hundred thousand footmen in one day.
30 But the rest fled to Aphek, into the city; and there a wall fell upon twenty and seven thousand of the men that were left. And Ben-hadad fled, and came into the city, into an inner chamber.
31 ¶And his servants said unto him, Behold now, we have heard that the kings of the house of Israel are merciful kings: let us, I pray thee, put sackcloth on our loins, and ropes upon our heads, and go out to the king of Israel: peradventure he will save thy life.
32 So they girded sackcloth on their loins, and put ropes on their heads, and came to the king of Israel, and said, Thy servant Ben-hadad saith, I pray thee, let me live. And he said, Is he yet alive? he is my brother.
33 Now the men did diligently observe whether any thing would come from him, and did hastily catch it: and they said, Thy brother Ben-hadad. Then he said, Go ye, bring him. Then Ben-hadad came forth to him; and he caused him to come up into the chariot.
34 And Ben-hadad said unto him, The cities, which my father took from thy father, I will restore; and thou shalt make

37 Then he found another man, and said, Smite me, I pray thee. And the man smote him, so that in smiting he wounded him.
38 So the prophet departed, and waited for the king by the way, and disguised himself with
39 And as the king passed by, he cried unto the king: and he said, Thy servant went out into the midst of the battle; and, behold, a man turned aside, and brought a man unto me, and said, Keep this man: if by any means he be missing, then shall thy life be for his life, or else thou shalt pay a talent of silver.
40 And as thy servant was busy here and there, he was gone. And the king of Israel said unto him, So shall thy judgment be; thyself hast decided it.
41 And he hasted, and took the ashes away from his face; and the king of Israel discerned him that he was of the prophets.
42 And he said unto him, Thus saith the Lord, Because thou hast let go out of thy hand a man whom I appointed to utter destruction, therefore thy

On Sept. 12 there was an accident on the big corner coming into Castle Dale. A 30 year old Salt Lake woman was driving the truck with a six year old passenger. Shaun Alton from the Utah Highway Patrol said they were both wearing seat belts which saved them from serious injury. They were both transported to Castleview Hospital for evaluation.
The group of campers were heading to Millsite State park.
According to Officer Alton the truck and trailer were headed southbound on SR-10. The vehicle was traveling too fast and began to whip around the corner. The driver hit the brakes which caused more whipping and the truck and trailer traveled across the northbound lane where they rolled off the embankment on the east side of the road. The truck came to rest with the passenger side door in the air. Family members helped clean-up the scene and transported the salvagable items from the trailer. The trailer was completely torn apart in the accident and the truck received severe damage.
The body of the trailer was torn from the frame and debris was scattered over a large area.
Officer Alton said this is a reminder to observe the speed limit around that corner which is 55 mph.

When to make a change: Keys to innovating your business model
In today's increasingly complex environment, business model innovation can be critical to organizational success.
In a follow-up to the "IBM Global CEO Study 2008, The Enterprise of the Future," we analyzed 28 successful business model innovators to understand how and when business model innovation is most valuable. The business model consists of four components: the value delivered to customers, how revenue is generated, how a company positions itself in the industry and how value is delivered.
In the new economic environment, companies can start developing a strategy and transformation approach by answering two questions: (1) Under what conditions should companies innovate their business model? and (2) What characteristics support the design and execution of successful business model innovation?
Successful timing of business model innovation depends on the economic environment, the specific market and industry conditions, and a set of internal factors impacting the organization.
We found that successful companies are innovating their business model in three ways: (1) Revisiting the enterprise model to reduce cost through new partnership models and by reconfiguring the asset mix, (2) Using strong financial resources to introduce alternative industry models and disrupt competitors and (3) Rethinking revenue model and value propositions to respond to a different set of customer behaviors and market requirements.
Not every organization needs to innovate its business model immediately, but the capabilities need to be established in order to act when the time is right.
Three capabilities – we call them the Three A's – can improve the execution of business model innovation: organizations need to be aligned with customer value, analytical to gain insight from differentiated intelligence, and enabled by an adaptable operating model.

By CHRISTINE JENSEN
Many families are concerned about the rising cost of food. If you are struggling to put food on the table without breaking the bank, here are a few tips on low-cost, healthy shopping/eating.
Before shopping:
Know the amount of money you have to spend on food. Remember that non-food items should come from a different budget. If these are combined, make you know how much money you have to spend in each category. These may include items such as toilet paper, paper towels, cleaners, laundry items etc. If you use your food budget for all of this, it reduces the amount of food that can be purchased.
Make your shopping list based on the amount of money you have to spend. This will help you keep your budget intact and even save money by carefully selecting items.
Check what foods you already have. This may include meals from leftovers, foods in your pantry, foods from gardens, etc. We lose money whenever we toss food because it spoiled before we got around to eating it. If leftovers get tossed because they're left too long, you are putting money in the garbage can. For example: If wilted lettuce is often tossed, make more salads at the first of the shopping week rather than let sit. Leftover mashed potatoes make excellent potato patties, or potato soup. Use overripe bananas in banana bread or smoothies. Add the leftover fresh spinach to your smoothie and it makes it even healthier without changing the taste.
When planning meals, read the grocery store ads for sale items. Base your meals on these items, especially expensive items such as meat. Look for coupons, sales and store specials.
Avoid costly convenience foods. These are usually very expensive per unit and many can be made at home from fresher ingredients, reduces the salt and fat intake. Learn to cook from scratch.
For added savings, sign up for the store discount card, if available in your store.
During Shopping:
Don't shop when you are hungry. Everything looks good on an empty stomach. It is easier to stick to your shopping list when you are not hungry than looking for something to tide you over until you get home. Oftentimes, this is when high calorie snack foods seem to jump into the cart. A hungry stomach encourages impulse spending.
Try store brands. They usually cost less but not always. Again, check the unit price.
Compare products for the best deal. Look at the price per unit. This will often tell you what the best price is for this product. Most stores have this information inserted at the front of the shelf.
Check sell by dates. Buy the freshest food possible. It lasts longer.
Compare forms of food. Buy a lower-cost form of the product if it will do as well. For example, canned tomatoes are usually cheaper than whole fresh tomatoes and can be used for stews and sauces. Drained diced tomatoes do well on tacos and taste fresher because they have been preserved at the height of their ripeness.
Purchase only what you can safely store and use before it spoils.
Read food labels. They are helpful in showing the nutritional value such as the number of calories, grams of fat, protein and carbohydrate as well as amounts of vitamins and minerals per serving. Note the number of servings in each can or package.
After shopping:
Store food right away to preserve freshness.
Freeze food to prevent spoiling.
Divide foods into small portions for children and elderly to prevent waste.
Use foods with the earliest expiration dates first.
For more information on this or any other related topic, please contact the Utah State University Extension office at 381-3539 for Christine Jensen or 381-3538 for Dennis Worwood.

"I love Liz Claiborne heels, but these were lower than I thought they would be. They almost felt like I had a flat on, rather than a heel. That's the only downside for me."

a guide on how to download and install, cracked applications & cracked games for an iPad without paying for them. [as usual do at your own risk]
- yes, you'll need to jailbreak your iPad via spirit [detailed instructions] [don't forget to change your default password on your iPad]
once you're done, you should see "cydia" app on your iPad (don't worry if your iPad becomes an iPhone for a min – all you have to do is respring)
- in cydia app, search for "AppSync for OS3.2" (paid app … so, if you don't mind stealing those apps, from those developers:
Goto: Cydia > Manage > Sources > Edit > Add > sinfuliphonerepo.com
It will add a sinful repository – once done, in the search result on cydia – you will now see apps with sinful logo listed as well – their versions of apps are cracked & free)
[some pipl suggest you download a free app from iTunes on your computer & iPad … ]
- so where do you download cracked iPad games & apps from?
surprisingly not much on torrent sites yet. for a list of basic paid apps that are cracked and free, check out MCP Exclusive. there, you'll find free version of pages, numbers (iWorks for iPad), angry birds HD, command & conquer, flight control HD, NFS Shift, Tetris HD, Weather HD, etc, etc
if you can't find what you looking for on MCP, check out filestube.com (nice rapidshare search engine)
– when you search add "ipa" to the search (e.g. "goodreader ipa")
- once you download the ipa file, all you need to do is drag it to iTunes & sync your iPad – vu a la, enjoy your hacked iPad app / game for FREE!
[if you're getting "the item you've requested is not currently available in the us store" error in iTunes after you install an app or a game on your jailbroken iPad / iPhone. it means you have downloaded an international version of a cracked ipa app or game. once you sync & app / game is on your iPad. delete that ipa file from your iTunes / restart iTunes & it will fix this problem]
[if you're getting 0xE8008001 Error When Trying to Sync …
means you haven't followed above instructions & made a mistake of moving MobileInstallation manually to your iPad / iPhone via SSH … OLD way of doing things. it worked for os 2.0, won't work on 3.0 +]

Ironic Hipsters Lose $500 Million, Need More Money
Check out Groupon's S-1 when you get a chance. In less than 3 years, the company has accumulated losses of over $500 million.
I don't doubt that there's a sustainable business model buried beneath all the mirthful irreverence, but there are troubling signs that Groupon's performance is deteriorating in mature markets– and it's never a good sign when early investors have already jumped ship with nearly $1 billion.
The Wall Street Journal asks, "Will Investors Take Groupon's Andrew Mason Seriously?"
UPDATE: Brett Arends at MarketWatch writes,
During the dot-com bubble, I once heard a story from a venture capitalist about a start-up that wanted to be valued at a multiple of headcount. At $5 billion, Groupon would be valued at nearly 10 times accumulated losses. Who's to say that's too much?

JDC Dedicates Haiti's First State-of-the-Art Rehab Clinic and Prosthetic Workshop
For 23-year-old Oscar, an optimistic man with an easy smile, dreams of being a professional soccer player or a high-tech mogul all but vanished after losing his right leg during Haiti's destructive earthquake. Today, Oscar and other earthquake victims have found hope at a newly dedicated rehabilitation clinic and prosthetic workshop developed by the American Jewish Joint Distribution Committee together with Israel's Magen David Adom and Sheba Medical Center at Tel Hashomer Hospital as well as the Haitian Red Cross and the HUEH (l'Hôpital de l'Université d'Etat d'Haïti). The modernized facilities are the first of their kind in Haiti.


text: TVA ready to handle power demand due to cold By Dennis Seid | January 6, 2014 Comment 1 | Likes 0 | Tags The Tennessee Valley Authority says power demand to heat homes and business is expected to be high, but it's ready for it. More from the TVA: The Tennessee Valley Authority expects plunging temperatures from an arctic cold wave moving across the region will produce high demand for electricity. TVA's bulk electric system remains secure and stable at this time. "TVA has been monitoring and carefully preparing for this blast of potentially record-cold weather since last week," TVA Chief Operating Officer Chip Pardee said. "We have taken proactive measures so the system remains robust and reliable for our customers and power users across the Valley." With regional temperatures forecast to be among the coldest in 20 years, TVA electricity demand is expected to exceed 31,000 megawatts on Monday evening and reach nearly 32,000 megawatts on Tuesday evening. TVA's all-time record winter demand was set on Jan. 16, 2009, at 32,572 megawatts when temperatures across the Tennessee Valley averaged 9 degrees. The all-time record demand on the TVA power system was 33,482 megawatts on Aug. 16, 2007, when temperatures averaged 102 degrees. TVA issued an internal "Conservative Operations Alert" on Friday, indefinitely suspending all non-essential maintenance activities to minimize risk of power interruptions on TVA's transmission system and generation facilities. Late Sunday, TVA also initiated a "Power Supply Alert," a precautionary declaration that an unexpected shutdown of a large generating unit or transmission system interchange could reduce TVA's power supply reserves. TVA is working with the region's 155 local power companies and TVA's directly served industrial customers to ensure an uninterrupted supply of electricity to the 9 million residents of the Valley. Electric demand is expected to be high on Monday and Tuesday, but below record levels. Consumers can find immediate and long-term suggestions on how to reduce their energy usage and lower their power bills at TVA's EnergyRight Solutions website and programs offered in collaboration with local power companies. The Tennessee Valley Authority is a corporate agency of the United States that provides electricity for business customers and local power distributors serving 9 million people in parts of seven southeastern states. TVA receives no taxpayer funding, deriving virtually all of its revenues from sales of electricity. In addition to operating and investing its revenues in its electric system, TVA provides flood control, navigation and land management for the Tennessee River system and assists local power companies and state and local governments with economic development and job creation.

Gas Prices Dropping
Gas prices hover around three dollars per gallon for the first time in a long time -- even dropping to a two year low in some areas.
According to GasBuddy.Com, many gas stations around the Tri-Cities are selling gas for $3.01 per gallon.
And in Yakima, a gallon of gas has dipped under three dollars per gallon at many stations-- going for $2.99 or even $2.97.
Drivers hope the prices stay that way for a long time.
"It's funny, they've got us trained," said Russell Roberts, "$2.99, we think it's a good deal or whatever, but it's a lot better than $4.50, and hopefully it stays down for quite a while."
"I'm happy they're finally coming down, I'm just waiting for it to jump right back up, because they always do," Danny Ferguson.
The average price per gallon in the state of Washington is $3.32

Oral Questions
2:55 p.m.
Peter Van Loan Leader of the Government in the House of Commons and Minister for Democratic Reform
Mr. Speaker, far be it from me to talk about things that are fat.
However, I can say that those expense accounts under the Liberals and those meals were an awful lot fatter. I can say that this government House leader pays for every one of his meals and enjoys them fully.
Ferry Service
Oral Questions
May 8th, 2008 / 2:55 p.m.
Paul Zed Saint John, NB
Mr. Speaker, the Saint John to Digby ferry is a vital link for Atlantic Canada. The provinces should not have to pay to maintain the service. It is part of our national transportation infrastructure, just like highways and rail lines.
This is a marine superhighway from the energy hub of Saint John to Nova Scotia lumber and fishing communities.
Will the government commit today to use funding from the Atlantic gateway initiative to help keep this tourism and trade link running?
Ferry Service
Oral Questions
2:55 p.m.
Central Nova
Nova Scotia
Peter MacKay Minister of National Defence and Minister of the Atlantic Canada Opportunities Agency
Mr. Speaker, I thank the member kindly for his question and his concern. This does affect both Nova Scotia and New Brunswick.
We have been working with both governments and both provinces, as we did the last time when we were able to bring together an arrangement that kept the Bay Ferries running between Saint John and Digby.
I do note, however, that there is some level of cynicism and hypocrisy in his question, knowing that it was under his government that this was devolved. At that time he did not express near the concern or the passion or the feigned indignation as he points the finger at this government today.
Trent-Severn Waterway
Oral Questions
2:55 p.m.
Bruce Stanton Simcoe North, ON
Mr. Speaker, in October 2006, I presented a motion in the House to evaluate the future of the Trent-Severn Waterway and last week the Minister of the Environment delivered some welcome news to the people who live in and around the waterway.

John Baird Minister of the Environment
Mr. Speaker, because of the hard work of the member for Simcoe North, I am pleased to say that our government will be making a five year commitment of more than $63 million to support the Trent-Severn Waterway.
People have known for many years that the member for Simcoe North works hard and now is just another example that he gets results.

Irene Mathyssen London—Fanshawe, ON
Mr. Speaker, one of the most disturbing outcomes of the discrimination and marginalization that aboriginal women in Canada suffer is the extreme violence they face. In recent weeks, the remains of two young aboriginal women, Amber Redman and Tashina General, have been found.
Along the Highway of Tears and in Vancouver's east side, over 80 women are missing or have been found murdered. The Native Women's Association of Canada estimates that well over 500 aboriginal women have disappeared or have been killed.
Why will Indian affairs not grant the money needed to stop the violence against aboriginal women?

Chuck Strahl Minister of Indian Affairs and Northern Development and Federal Interlocutor for Métis and Non-Status Indians
Mr. Speaker, I was very pleased earlier this year to announce, after the budgetary policies of this government, that we had added five new shelters for aboriginal women, to add to the current network of shelters across the country.
It is important that all Canadian take this issue very seriously. Violence against women is something that everyone in this House feels is a terrible crime, and for aboriginal women especially, who are often the most vulnerable, we need to ensure we take all the steps necessary to look after their needs, including these shelters for victims of violence.

Mr. Speaker, the member for Notre-Dame-de-Grâce—Lachine has written to the Minister of Transport asking him to use his regulatory powers to suspend night flights into Pierre Elliott Trudeau Airport in Montreal until public consultations on environmental, economic and health issues are conducted.
The minister, indeed, has that authority. What is he prepared to do to assist Montreal residents in the area of the airport who are suffering through the noise and nuisance of night flights into the airport?

Mr. Speaker, I have received representations from both that colleague as well as the colleague from Lachine on this specific issue.
We know that l'Aéroport international de Montréal is responsible for the flight patterns. It is also responsible for determining how things are going. It has put forward another option and it will be looked at. Over the course of the next couple of weeks, it will be in consultation with the people who are interested parties in this file.

Ralph Goodale Wascana, SK
Mr. Speaker, I wonder if the government House leader could outline the plans he has for government business through the rest of this week and next week before the May break.
I wonder if he could tell us, since there is one week before the May break and one week after the May break, which two of those ten days he will officially designate for the House to examine in committee of the whole the estimates on one occasion of the Minister of Foreign Affairs and on another occasion the Minister of Finance.
Two such days need to be designated before the end of May and I wonder if the House leader could tell us which they will be.

Oral Questions
3:05 p.m.
Peter Van Loan Leader of the Government in the House of Commons and Minister for Democratic Reform
Mr. Speaker, the government took a major step forward this week to maintain a competitive economy, our theme for this week, and I am happy to advise the House that yesterday the Standing Committee on Finance agreed to report the budget implementation bill back to the House by May 28.
This is excellent news. The budget bill ensures a balanced budget, controls spending, and invests in priority areas.
This week also saw the passage of Bill C-23, which amends the Canada Marine Act, and Bill C-5 on nuclear liability at report stage.
Today, we are debating a confidence motion on the government's handling of the economy. We fully expect, notwithstanding the minority status of our government, that this House of Commons will, once again, express its support for the government's sound management of Canada's finances and the economy.
Tomorrow, will we continue with maintaining a competitive economy week by debating our bill to implement our free trade agreement with the countries of the European Free Trade Association. It is the first free trade agreement signed in six years and represents our commitment to finding new markets for the goods and services Canadians produce.
If there is time, we will also debate Bill C-14, which would allow enterprises choice for communicating with customers; Bill C-7, to modernize our aeronautics sector; Bill C-32, to modernize our fisheries sector; Bill C-43, to modernize our custom rules; Bill C-39, to modernize the Grain Act for farmers; and Bill C-46, to give farmers more choice in marketing grain.
The government believes strongly in the principle of democracy and the fundamental importance of human rights. Next week we will show our support for that with strengthening democracy and human rights week. The week will start with debate on Bill C-30, our specific land claims bill. The bill would create an independent tribunal made up of superior court judges to help resolve the specific claims of first nations and will, hopefully, speed up the resolution about standing claims.
We will debate Bill C-34, which is our bill to give effect to the Tsawwassen First Nation final agreement. We will debate our bill to provide basic rights to on reserve individuals, Bill C-47, to protect them and their children in the event of a relationship breakdown, rights that off reserve Canadians enjoy every day.
As I said, we are committed to strengthening democracy in Canada. Yesterday, I had an excellent discussion on Senate reform with members of the Senate legal and constitutional affairs committee. That discussion will continue in this House next week when we debate our bill to limit the terms of senators to eight years from the current maximum of 45, as foreseen in Bill C-19.
We will also debate our bill to close the loophole used by leadership candidates to bypass the personal contribution limit provisions of the election financing laws with large, personal loans from wealthy powerful individuals and ensure we eliminate the influence of big money in the political process.
With regard to the question about estimates, there are, as the opposition House leader knows, two evenings that must be scheduled for committee of the whole in the House to deal with those estimates. Those days will be scheduled over the next two weeks that we sit so they may be completed before May 31, as contemplated in the Standing Orders.
There have been consultations, Mr. Speaker, and I believe you would find the unanimous consent of the House for the following:
That, notwithstanding any Standing Order or usual practices of the House, on Friday, May 9, starting at noon and ending at the normal hour of daily adjournment, no quorum calls, dilatory motions or requests for unanimous consent shall be received by the Chair.

Used by several ATP Tour professionals, including Rafael Nadal, Big Banger Original is ideal for the player who seeks control when crushing the ball. Players with high racquet head speed will notice a vicious snapback for added power and a heavier ball. This string plays softer than most traditional monofilament strings while offering good tension maintenance.

Data share and share alike: Telco looks to capture mobile Internet users with data sharing across mobiles, tabs
Blue telco now lets you share Internet data between smartphones, tablets and laptops.
Telstra has just unveiled new data share packages that lets users pool their internet between their mobile devices.
Up to four devices can share a single data allowance, so you don't have to pay separate data bills for your tablet and smartphone, and other web connected devices like notebooks.
The plans start at a basic $60 smartphone plan (includes $600 calls, unlimited SMS, 1GB data), plus another $10 to share the data with a tablet. Each share pack includes one Sim card for the tablet.
Every additional SIM for use on another device costs $10, you can have a total of three additional Sims.
There are also Telstra BYO mobile sharing deals starting at $50. To sweeten the deal, Telstra is throwing in a bonus monthly 1GB of data to those who sign up before 31 December.
Existing Telstra customers on mobile plans can upgrade to the new share packs.
"Any potential saving is dependent on how customers currently use their devices," a spokesperson told Smarthouse.
"For example, if they currently have a separate data plan for multiple devices and find that they are not using all of the data they are paying for, moving to a shared data plan could maximize use of monthly data allowances. They will also have the convenience of managing all their devices on one bill" Telstra says its research shows estimated 80 per cent of Australians who use multiple mobile devices could benefit from sharing their data allowance across devices.
Telstra research shows we are a nation of data guzzlers - 50% of us using at least 1GB of data or more per month.
Telstra Group MD Consumer, Karsten Wildberger said the move to introduce data sharing was due to customer demand, as we guzzle more data than ever before.
The share packages mean less looking for public Wi-Fi access, which Telstra warns can be vulnerable to security risks. (Yes, but it is free, after all).
"With people more connected than ever before, customers are looking for a simple solution that will allow them to manage their usage across all their devices and make their data allowance go further," Wildberger said.
"This streamlined approach to data sharing is about making it simple for our customers to use all the mobile data they are paying for, manage it on one monthly bill and top up their usage easily if required."
If you want more Internet than these allowances, there are additional Shared Data Packs you can add, for use across eligible devices.
Telstra research uncovered the following trends among Aussie web surfers:
. More than half of people go online as soon as they wake up, almost three quarters connect straight after work, and three out of five admitting to closing out their day on the internet.
. Almost 50% of people use at least 1GB of data or more, monthly.
. 58% are not using all of their monthly data allowance.
. Queenslanders are the most connected, with 68% owning multiple mobile devices, and 18% owning more than five devices.
. Social media is becoming a key part of our lives with more than one in three people trawling through Facebook, Instagram and Twitter every few hours. Women 'check in' more often, men are more likely to engage in online commentary, with the Federal Election and Footy Finals popular topics.
. Gen X-ers are more likely to be juggling multiple gadgets, with one in five owning four or more connected devices.
. Public transport commuters are looking for entertainment as they move from A to B, with 44 per cent of people preferring to look at their screen to looking out the window.
. TV is about multi-screening of Australian viewers have one eye on their phone or tablet while sitting down to watch their favorite programs.
