You are all gathered in the Tavern sitting around the table when you hear a commotion at the bar. It appears that a young redheaded woman dressed in the cloak of a cleric has come in and is very excitedly talking to patrons.
Welcome one and all to the beginning of the GAME!
Knowledge Religion roll 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (18) + 5 = 23
Aluar quickly turns his ride side away from the redheaded woman as his left eye scrutinizes her from head to toe. Grabbing his hat from the table he places it on his head tilted down over the right side of his face.
Aluar asks in a harsh tone, a bit of impatience in his words, "Where is he?"
|Gryfford The Unrelenting
Knowldege Religion (untrained) 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (8) + 2 = 10
Gryfford, who was scrutinizing the yet unnamed stranger with the broad-brimmed black grave diggers hat and overall dark countenance, turned his head to look at the red-headed young woman.
Is she pretty ? he strangely thought to himself.
At Aluar's harsh question he sharply turned his head back to him. How rude !
Then he answered the young woman: "Like Taltōsh just said, we are all looking for the paladin of Erastil. I am called Gryfford. Pleased to meet you. These gentlemen are Arasmes, Yolk and Adriel Mistleaf. Who are you ?"
Those who passed know that she bears the symbol of Erastil, hmm quite ironic no?
She blushes slightly, and then launches into rapid speech, "I'm so sorry for the inconvenience. Master McDarrow is waiting for you back at the temple. He was out when you approached earlier, and I was uh...otherwise occupied." She seems very nervous and wrings her hands. "If you are still interested in his tale, he would be willing to meet with you." She continues to look around the table and when she notices Aluar she cringes a moment, but then looks away.
|Gryfford The Unrelenting
She is pretty thought Gryfford.
He stood up from his stool, took his falchion's scabbard which he had put leaning against the table and harnessed it swiftly on his back with practiced gestures, before picking up his backpack.
He then reached into his purse and quickly counted several pieces which he put down on the table.
"The beer and ale are on me, Arasmes. Let's go !"
Aluar heads for the door as he turns away from the woman and her startled glance at his face. He pulls it open as if to storm out but hesitates, leans against the door frame, and glances back at the table while holding out a hand invitingly.
"What are you all waitin for, an invitation?" He flashes a sharp grin, which only serves to make his scar and eye look more menacing, and slips out of the inn.
|Gryfford The Unrelenting
Gryfford laughs good-naturedly, as if sincerely amused by the audacity of the stranger.
He walks to the door, and follows the scarred man outside.
"I didn't quite catch your name." he says quietly.
The man named Aluar says something in a strange language "હું તેને ક્યાં નથી પકડી હતી."
He smiles at you from beneath his hat, "Call me Jean White. What are you called?"
Coming out of the inn behind the two, he mentions, "Hey fellow, we have indeed been at the inn... awaiting response from McDarrow. If'n I'm not mistaken, her arrival at our table was the invitation we've been waiting for." Worriment flashed across Yolk's face wondering if the man with the hideous scar might be hard of hearing, perhaps he didn't hear the woman speak.
Speaking louder, Yolk says, "I am Yolk, from Janderhoff. But, who are you?"
|Arasmes Kemnebi
Looking sadly at the hot, steaming food, Arasmes carefully counts out the right amount 1gp? and leaves it on the table.
Knowledge Religion - what religion is she1d20 + 5 ⇒ (6) + 5 = 11
Turning to the flustered cleric with a smile...
Diplomacy - Time to turn on the charm 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (9) + 8 = 17
|Arasmes Kemnebi
|Gryfford The Unrelenting
The man named Aluar says something in a strange language "હું તેને ક્યાં નથી પકડી હતી."
He smiles at you from beneath his hat, "Call me Jean White. What are you called?"
"Lach'hlu." says Gryfford in a rough sounding language.
And he smiles back at Aluar:"The ladies call me often."
Taltōsh watched as Gryfford and the one calling himself Jean White spoke to each other in incomprehensible tongues. "It is considered impolite to speak in a language that your companions--even new companions--do not understand."
|Gryfford The Unrelenting
Gryfford looks contrite.
"Sorry, Taltōsh. I was speaking the Orc tongue".
He turns to Aluar and says: "I couldn't begin to guess what language you just spoke, fellow."
"It was quite hideous, though" he adds, smiling to lessen the possible harshness of his words.
"Anyway, Jean, I am Gryfford, son of Marsus the Strong... sometimes called Gryfford the Unrelenting by those who've faced me in the arenas of Tymon..."
"Pleased to meet you." he concludes pleasantly.
|Adriel Mistleaf
Adriel places down his wine, his first ever ( he really didn't see the big deal)
Lead on, then
This lot were entirely to jovial for his current state of mind. He resolves to ask the dwarf later about 'getting drunk'. As far as he knew, that race was quite proficient at it.
She is flustered because clearly she is in a hurry and surrounded by strange looking adventurers, no rolls needed ;)
She nods and starts to walk away and then realizes something, "Oh, I'm terribly sorry I forgot to introduce myself...I must remember what Master McDarrow says. My name is Alia, I am an apprentice cleric of our great god Erastil." She bows low and then turns and steps out of the tavern into the street.
It's not terribly far from where you are to the temple, and as you approach you see that it stands approximately two stories taller than the buildings around it. It is decorated with great marble columns and a large Ironwork door on the front that is of exquisite craftsmanship. Standing on the steps is a rather impressive dwarf with a thick brown beard. He is standing tall(or as tall as a dwarf can) and his armor gleams white with holy symbols on it. From his waist hangs a large warhammer.
When he sees you he calls out, "Greetings travelers!"
|Arasmes Kemnebi
|Adriel Mistleaf
|Gryfford The Unrelenting
|Arasmes Kemnebi
The dwarf smiles broadly and ushers you inside. " I am terribly sorry for the delay, to answer your questions I am Angus McDarrow. And I hear that you have come about the grave happenings as of late." He ushers you down a long hall of polished marble and turns into a small library. He moves books off f chaira around the room as he continues, " I am not sure how much you know, please inform me of the tales you've heard."
I made some rolls to see what Taltōsh knows/has heard:
Here was my roll to see what my character knows about lycanthropes: From Discussion Thread
Kn-Religion (what Taltōsh knows about Vampires: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (15) + 4 = 19
Kn-Local (what rumors Taltōsh heard): 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (16) + 7 = 23
"Well, Master McDarrow, a local farmer--one Adrien Bellgrave--reported that a number of his farm animals have gone missing, leaving behind large amounts of blood scattered about his fields."
Shrugging, the man added, "Unfortunately, that's all I've heard."
|Gryfford The Unrelenting
Gryfford looks around him, perhaps curious of the latest tastes in dwarven clerical furniture, then speaks:
"In all honesty, I don't know much."
He frowns as he attempts to make himself clear.
"People in your pleasant little town seem to be worried about vampires and werewolves."
"I don't really know what a vampire is... but I recall that when I was young my nurse told me about unkempt, slavering and raging furry men-beasts cavorting and ravaging innocent maidens under the moon."
"I didn't really know what ravaging meant but I was quite taken by the stories."
"Anyway, the people are maybe starting to grow a bit restless. And you've gone to the sheriff with some informations, but he thinks you're full of it."
|Gryfford The Unrelenting
"Well Angus, I had heard that there were attacks happening in or around Sandpoint. I was also told that you tried to approach the mayor because you had reason to believe that these attacks were caused by werewolves and vampires, but that he dismissed you outright."
"In my studies at the temple I have come across readings of vampires and werewolves, that is why I did not shy away from the rumor and came seeking you."
|Gryfford The Unrelenting
|Adriel Mistleaf
have heard similar. Though to be honest I am here because my grove is overrun and without mother tend it, I have only my Fathers town to call home. I know the reputation Mother and I inadvertadly cultivated by living as recluses in thewoods. I will need to contibute to alleviate this places fear about me. Witches are not favored in most places. I would at least like to be tolerated so I needen't worry about a lynch mob.
|Gryfford The Unrelenting
No one could see Taltōsh's smile beneath his hood. "Among Varisians, witches are respected, yet feared for their powers. However, so are sorcerers--such as myself--for that matter."
|Gryfford The Unrelenting
So. Gryfford reflects as he glances at his companions.
We have an elf witch, a hooded sorcerer and a dwarf priest.
He looks quickly and discreetly up and down at the pale white-haired exotically dressed Arasmes. A mysterious hunter from a faraway land, and...
looking at Aluar... our own freakish and rude Jean White.
Gryfford chuckles suddenly: "I like it, Sharpest, I like it a lot."
As several people in the assembly look at him with some puzzlement at this unexpected statement, Gryfford clears his throat with some embarrasment. He then puts on a show of listening attentively to what Mac Darrow is about to say.
Angus takes a seat at the far end of the table and motions for you to sit down and join him.
He looks around at all of you and for a brief instant he looks afraid, but then he continues speaking. " Aye what ye say is true. There have been attacks in local fields and many young women have gone missing." He takes a deep breath.
"The mayor seems to think that there is nothing significant about the incidents. But he is a lazy, OLD, SONOVA..." he trails off and composes himself.
"It doesn't matter what I think, what matters is that there is a serious problem that needs to be dealt with. Now before I say anything else, tell me about yourselves."
|Arasmes Kemnebi
"Well, I'm not exactly sure what a werewolf is - we don't have them back home. It doesn't sound like the work of a vampire though."
Damn. If it was a vamp leaving blood behind it must've been a young one - or one blood-drunk I suppose... Not good for us either way.
"As for myself, I am Arasmes Kemnebi. I have hunted a vampire halfway across the world to this region. I have trained for thirty years to hunt my targets, and I am very good. My mother is the legendary vampire hunter Izora, and she trained me. Most of my tools have been lost over the trip, but I am not without resources."
"I am disappointed to hear about the scattered blood - it doesn't seem like my target. It could be a new spawn though."
"Can someone direct me to this farm so I can look at the signs later?" Arasmes asks.
edit: replying to post posted while I was writing my post... got to write faster...
"i am on a pilgrimage to discover myself and my flock. Since leaving the temple, my journey jas been pretty miserable, but I am protected by Torag, i have managed to survive off the goodness of others and am provided for by offering my ordained services
"Let me also help you now, Torag has led me here and i believe it to be my duty to help Sandpoint before i move on."
Taltōsh shifted nervously, uncomfortable talking about himself. Yet I must--it will help to build trust with my boon companions. Something that we will need if we face such terrible monsters. It will also help me to overcome my shortcomings.
"There is little to tell, for I am young, having only seen twenty summers. I am a Varisian, and my clan travels--gypsies we are called. As a boy, I found some ruins and was attacked by a small gray ooze-like creature that scarred me with it's caustic touch. I managed to escape it and stumble back to our camp."
Taltōsh paused briefly before continuing, "I spent more and more time with my grandfather--as the other children taunted me about my disfigurement. It was my grandfather who helped me unlock my sorcerous potential.
"My grandfather died as we were heading to Nirmathas. He was not young, and I had promised him years ago that I would bury him in Sanos Forest. So I left the caravan and did as I was asked. After, I felt no great desire to return to my clan, as for half my life my grandfather was my main companion."
Shifting again, Taltōsh finished his story. "I was familiar with Sandpoint, and after spending some time here, I heard the rumor I spoke of earlier, and of your interest. I seek purpose, and your quest seems a worthy one. I am at your service."
|Gryfford The Unrelenting
Gryfford is impressed at the mention of the vampire-hunting prowess of Arasmes Kemnebi. He nods several times as if to approve the providence (or is it the gods ?) which guided Arasmes to Sandpoint.
He listens intently to the story of Taltōsh, and seems pleased at Yolk's gesture of support to the Varisian.
Then he answers Angus.
"I have been raised in Tymon, by my father and an orc nurse. My father was a gladiator and he trained me in the art of fighting before an audience."
He pauses.
"When you're a gladiator you train every day of your life." He sighs. "You train hard."
"You see, not all fights are to the death in the arenas - not in Tymon. But now and then, you do the dance of death. And if you misstep, you go away." He looks at Jean. "The Lady of Graves takes you as her bridegroom."
"The most difficult part is... He chews his lips a little. "you must be... pretty, when you dance." He has a little laugh. "Perhaps beautiful is a better word for it. Or fair."
"You must be pleasant - enticing - to look at when you're trying to cut your opponent's throat. Because if you don't woo the spectators, you risk displeasing the crowd." He swallows.
"And if you make the crowd dislike you... then you're soon dead meat quartered in the sand."
He frowns. "In the arena, the crowd has always the last word. You can't be... unpopular, because he glances briefly at Adriel you can't win a fight against the crowd."
He seems to shake himself.
"But now, things are different. I haven't forgotten how to do the dance of death. Never will. But my father is gone. I am my own man now."
He looks at Angus.
"And I am a man of the sword". Almost unconsciously, his hand brushes the sheath hosting his falchion on his back. "I must fight to better myself" he resumes " so I'd like to fight the good fight."
He crosses his arms and concludes calmly.
"I think that, alongside my fellow adventurers, I can help the inhabitants of this charming little town and its countryside."

Mmmmm not really my style...but I like the Metallica song better. It just seemed more interesting to me haha.
I voted for "Blackened" because I like it better.

thats just one more NOOB i'd be glad to PWN
I'm not into metal and I don't really care who sold out or whatever , but I gave them both a fair listen and maybe it was the instrumental intro from Tornado of Souls that won me over, but I really liked that one. Vocals weren't bad either. As for Metallica, after about 1 minute I forgot what I was supposed to be listeneing to. o.O
^Birthday Sig & Ava from Mikessc88 <3 v Birthday Sig from Imotochan <3Lords of the Boredom Zone: Arhazivory Redsquirrel and Crossx21

The world's only rally driving organisation for juniors, sponsored by Kick Energy drink, toasted the next generation of rally champions at Chesterfield's Casa Hotel this January.
Formula 1000 established the Junior Championship in 2009 and supports young people aged 14 and up to achieve their rallying goals. The organisation hosted this year's gala dinner at Derbyshire's highest AA rated 4 star hotel on Saturday 21st January to celebrate the young drivers' most successful season to date.
Chris Ingram, aged just 17 and his co-driver Michael Gilbey, aged 23 (co-drivers have to be adults) were awarded for an outstanding season, which included winning the Championship. Out of eight races this season they were 1st for six and on the podium for two.
Completing the season in a Citroen C1, Chris said:
"It's been my dream to win the Championship and it's an honour to be here at Casa tonight. A lot of effort went into winning this season."
Chris will be competing in the British Rally Championship next year and will be racing alongside some of the greats, including Casa's owner Steve Perez.
Mr Perez commented:
"I have been involved with Formula 1000 for many years. It's great to see all the young drivers here tonight being celebrated for their achievements".
Following the award ceremony, Tristan Dodd, Chairman of Formula 1000, said:
"There couldn't have been a more perfect location from which to honour our young rally drivers, considering Steve Perez's personal passion for rallying and the support he's given Formula 1000 over the years through sponsorship with Kick Energy. The whole evening at Casa has been perfect from start to finish."

Flanker Ellis Jenkins will make his first-ever Heineken Cup start as Cardiff Blues face Exeter Chiefs in a huge must-win European clash at Arms Park on Saturday.
Flanker Ellis Jenkins will make his first-ever Heineken Cup start as Cardiff Blues face Exeter Chiefs in a huge must-win European clash at Arms Park on Saturday.
Former Wales U20 captain Jenkins is one of four changes for Blues as they hunt a crucial win in the final game in Pool 2 to propel them into the last eight of European rugby this season.
Director of Rugby Phil Davies hands the captaincy to prop Sam Hobbs, with Wales international Gethin Jenkins (knee) ruled out.
Hobbs will pack down alongside hooker Kristian Dacey who has recovered from injury to be named in the starting line-up just days after agreeing a new long-term contract at Blues.
The final change to the team is a recall for experienced midfielder Dafydd Hewitt at inside centre where he will partner Gavin Evans.
"We've put ourselves in a strong position after five tough pool games and great credit must go to the players for some strong performances that have led us to this position," said Davies.
"However, the biggest challenge for the squad is in front of us this against Exeter. Only a big performance will be good enough to put us into the quarter-finals of Europe.
"Exeter Chiefs are a well organised side and have a talented squad that has been together as a unit for a long time. Rob Baxter will have his team highly motivated to finish the campaign strongly."
Meanwhile Exeter boss Rob Baxter has again tinkered with his squad, recalling Jack Yeandle, Dean Mumm, Dave Ewers and Don Armand to the pack.
Amongst the backs, Gareth Steenson comes in at fly-half meaning Henry Slade switches to the centre alongside Sam Hill. On the bench, former Cardiff players Ben White and Ceri Sweeney are included as is Jason Shoemark and James Phillips, the latter of whom is back following a short loan spell with the Cornish Pirates.
At Sandy Park in October, Baxter's men produced a devastating first 40 minutes to blow aside the Welsh region. Since that performance, Europe hasn't gone quite to plan for the Chiefs who have suffered double losses against both Glasgow Warriors and reigning champions Toulon.
"One of the big differences this year is that we have now had extra players who have come through full Heineken Cup campaigns. Guys like Jack Nowell and Dave Ewers, they hadn't done that last year. Also people like Damian Welch, he's had a full year; Luke Cowan-Dickie, Ben Moon (pictured), they've experienced playing at this level, so if you work your way through the team, we now have guys who have had some big game experience and they'll only get better for that."
The teams:
Cardiff Blues: 15 Leigh Halfpenny, 14 Alex Cuthbert, 13 Gavin Evans, 12 Dafydd Hewitt, 11 Chris Czekaj, 10 Gareth Davies, 9 Lloyd Williams, 8 Robin Copeland, 7 Ellis Jenkins, 6 Macauley Cook, 5 Filo Paulo, 4 Chris Dicomidis, 3 Benoit Bourrust, 2 Kristian Dacey, 1 Sam Hobbs (c).
Replacements: 16 Marc Breeze, 17 Thomas Davies, 18 Scott Andrews, 19 James Down, 20 Rory Watts-Jones, 21 Lewis Jones, 22 Dan Fish, 23 Richard Smith
Exeter Chiefs: 15 Luke Arscott, 14 Fetu'u Vainikolo, 13 Sam Hill, 12 Henry Slade, 11 Matt Jess, 10 Gareth Steenson, 9 Dave Lewis, 8 Kai Horstmann, 7 Don Armand, 6 Dave Ewers, 5 Damian Welch, 4 Dean Mumm (capt), 3 Alex Brown, 2 Jack Yeandle, 1 Carl Rimmer.
Replacements: 16 Greg Bateman, 17 Luke Cowan-Dickie, 18 Lloyd Fairbrother, 19 Ben White, 20 James Phillips, 21 Will Chudley, 22 Ceri Sweeney, 23 Jason Shoemark.
Date: Saturday, January 18
Kick-off: 15:40 GMT
Venue: Cardiff Arms Park

Michigan vs. Ohio State was overshadowed by Trey Burke vs. Aaron Craft on Tuesday night.
Burke, a player of the year candidate averaging more than 18 points and seven assists, met his defensive match against the player who was recruited over him. Craft's scrappy, loose-ball diving, lockdown defense was on full display Tuesday night.
BOX SCORE: No. 2 Michigan 76, No. 10 Ohio State 74 (OT)
MORE: Michigan's highlighter-yellow unis
But in the end, Craft was left sprawled out on the floor staring at officials and teammates with a perplexed, how-is-that-not-a-foul look on his face. Michigan escaped with a 76-74 victory in overtime after Craft's coast-to-coast drive off a missed Michigan free throw was swatted away by Michigan's Tim Hardaway Jr.
"You've gotta call that. I think you have to blow the whistle there," ESPN analyst Dick Vitale said.
via @WorldofIsaac
While it looked like a clean block from first glance, replays show Hardaway had some contact against Craft. Still, it was the end of the game. Burke, however, appeared to have fouled Craft before the shot. Moments before, officials were debating whether a flagrant foul should have been issued.
"I like the way our defense was down the stretch," Michigan coach John Beilein said after the game on ESPN.
Craft's defense was impressive all game. But why is he shooting the last shot? Why not Deshaun Thomas, the team's best scorer? Craft raced to the basket quickly, but Hardaway (who had 23 points off six three-pointers) played the hero by smothering the Ohio State guard's last-ditch attempt to tie it.
"I thought Trey fouled him, and then I thought the whistle was going to blow, and then I just went for the ball," Hardaway told The Associated Press.
"There was a bit of contact, but they didn't call it, so I guess it wasn't a foul," Craft said after the game.

Queerditch Marsh

Queerditch Marsh was the location, somewhere in Manchester, where Kwidditch (a primitive form of Quidditch) evolved. In the eleventh century, local resident Gertie Keddle recorded in her diary the antics of wizards and witches playing a broomstick mounted game. Her diary revealed the presence of a leather ball (an early Quaffle), flying rocks (early Bludgers), and the idea of passing the leather ball to each other, then trying to score points by throwing the ball into the trees at the end of the marsh (early forms of goal posts).
Behind the scenes
- Intestingly, the name "Queerditch" is a near homophone with the word Quidditch, despite the above etymology. It is unknown whether the inhabitants of the Marsh adapted "Kwidditch" from "Queerditch", or if in the eleventh century it had a different name, like "Kweerditch Marsh".
- The four Hogwarts Houses can play matches against one another in Queerditch Marsh in Harry Potter: Quidditch World Cup
- In the real world "quidditch" is a dialect English word for a type of ditch, and came from Anglo-Saxon "cwǣð-dīc" = "mud-ditch".

Without fancy and innovative gadgetry, the Brooks Adrenaline GTS 13 is a "go-to-shoe" that simply gets the job done.
Brooks' Adrenaline GTS is a continual bestseller and a reliable option for countless runners, so it's no surprise that the 13th version of the stability trainer is nearly unchanged from previous iterations.
The 13 fits similarly to its predecessor: fairly roomy in the midfoot and toebox with plenty of space for runners with a wider or higher volume foot. One knock the 13 received from testers is the stretch eyelet lacing system, which makes it hard for those with narrower feet to crank down of the laces.
Not much has changed in the platform of the shoe, which is reflected in its ride and cushioning. Some testers did notice a slightly smoother heel-to-midfoot transition in the 13. All in all, the newest Adrenaline GTS remains a smooth riding and protective option for the runner seeking a good amount of overpronation support.
The Adrenaline GTS may not be the flashiest shoe, nor is it loaded with innovative bells and whistles promising a better run. It remains a favorite among many runners for a single reason: it works. For the runner not looking for the latest and greatest and is just looking for an enjoyable run, the Adrenaline GTS 13 makes a strong choice.
"The forefoot on the 13 feels a touch narrower than that of the 12, but it's a small change that I don't think many runners will mind."
"The Adrenaline GTS 13 shoe feels very similar to the previous version, which isn't a bad thing. It packs the support and cushioning needed to get through the rigors of heavy training."
"For a road shoe, I was impressed with the runability of the Adrenaline GTS 13 off the pavement. It's a great option for runs that cross over roads well groomed trails."

Really pretty, didn't work
"I am a true 9.5M in just about all shoes. However, since I wasn't sure how this wedge ran, I ordered both a 9.5 & a 10. The 9.5 was too small and the 10 fit ok in the length. However, the area by the toes is cut narrow, and my pinkie toe kept falling off the sandal bed. I love the look of these, but the fit is just off. Back they both go!"

Continuity in political leadership is comforting, but it may also be deceptive.
The leaders of the G8 are scheduled to meet next week at the Lough Erne Resort in Northern Ireland. But the summit will be more noteworthy for who attends than for what it accomplishes. When President Obama attended his first G8 summit in 2009 after his 2008 election victory, Nicolas Sarkozy from France, Silvio Berlusconi from Italy, Gordon Brown from the UK and Taro Aso from Japan were all there to welcome him to the exclusive club.
In addition, other western political leaders who came from states that were junior partners but not formal members of the G8, such as Kevin Rudd from Australia, Jan Peter Balkenende from the Netherlands, Lars Rasmussen from Denmark, and Jose Luis Zapatero from Spain were also there to greet him.
When Obama attends the G8 meeting in Northern Ireland next week, none of these political leaders will be there. Many of them were political victims of the economic recession that Obama managed to survive in the 2012 election. The president will see so many new faces at the G8 summit, he may suffer from survivor's guilt.
The presence of so many political leaders who were not there when Obama first appeared permits us to see how fragile political leadership has become. Voters are more fickle and election results are more volatile. Even forming governments after elections are held -- as in Italy and Greece -- has become challenging. This puts the 2012 U.S. election in a different light, and makes it more remarkable than we appreciated at the time.
While voters in other countries have been eagerly throwing in the cards they have hoping to draw a better hand, Americans held what they were dealt and returned the same majorities to the House and Senate as they did in 2008, and reelected the incumbent president. Compared to other western countries, the American polity looks stable, even as Americans profess to lose faith in it.
While the recession unsettled European political systems with new populist parties emerging to alter the political landscape in Britain, Italy, Greece and other countries, it left the American political system relatively unscathed. Politically disruptive domestic forces such as Occupy Wall Street and the Tea Party movement have both lost momentum.
Continuity in political leadership is comforting. Better the devils you know than the ones you don't. But political stability may also be deceptive. It can easily be confused with stagnation in which politics fail to adjust to changing circumstances or alternatively, stability can be mistaken for approval when in fact pressures are building below the surface only to emerge with greater force later.
When Obama looks around the room at the G8 Summit, it will be apparent that our political system has escaped the political turnover that has jostled and unsettled other G8 states. Whether that is for better or worse is still unclear.

Rubber sole squeaks alot!!!
"This is a great shoe. However, beware of the sole. The finish of the sole is a shiny, "gummy" rubber that makes it a very squeaky shoe on wood floors and marblestone. Was walking out of my lobby and turned back around to change shoes. Shame the shoe itself looks and feels good."

Tucked away in the rolling hills of Germantown is a Civil War Fort. There is a jail, civil war cannons, a stage coach, a livery, log cabins, and much more.
Louis Latzer, the founder of the Pet Milk Company, built this homestead for his wife and family in 1901. The home had many modern features of the day, including running water pumped by hand to a holding tank in the attic, a manufactured gas light system, speaking tubes between many of the rooms and one of the first telephones in the community.
Listed on the National Register, it has six restored rooms with china, furniture, engravings, and books that belonged to the settlers when Lincoln attended the legislature.
Located across from the Statehouse in Vandalia, the park features a life-size, bronze statue of Abraham Lincoln. This is a favorite spot for photos with the 16th president.
General Dean Suspension Bridge
Located just outside the city of Carlyle, this historic 130-year-old bridge is one of the oldest suspension bridges in the area. The original bridge served as a crossing over the Kaskaskia River.
Ingram's Pioneer Log Cabin Village
Pre-Civil War log structures rescued from destruction by the Ingrams. Many of the 17 homes and other buildings are furnished with authentic pieces and open to the public. Visit Jacob's Well Inn, frequented by Abraham Lincoln.
Visit an exact replica of a Civil War Fort complete with a jail, one-room home, livery, and log cabins.
Civil War Monument at the Veterans' Memorial
This monument honors generations of soliders who sacrificed their lives for their country.
The original wooden cross was erected in 1850 by a farmer in thanksgiving for his family being spared during a cholera epidemic. Subsequent owners of the property have repaired and replaced it.
Farm implements, tools, tractors, and other equipment are featured that date back 100 years. The museum is open for special events including the Outhouse Festival in the fall.
Joseph Koch, who along with eight other local miners died in a mine explosion in 1947, is depicted here.
Clinton County Historical Museum
This building was the former home of Judge Sidney Breese, who came to Illinois from New York. He studied law here and became Assistant Secretary of the State of Illinois.
Located behind the Statehouse in a century-old church, this museum is full of Lincoln-era memorabilia, including his letter cabinet and an axe carved with his initials.
Centralia Area Historical Museum
Artifacts, pictures of coal mining, railroading, business, farming in and around Centralia. A work in progress by the Centralia Area Historical Society to preserve the past of Marion County.
Centralia's resident carilloneur performs on the town's 65-bell carillon, one of the few in the country. The surrounding park also features a museum and tours of the 165-foot-tall tower.
Centralia Historical Society Museum
Centerpieces of the collection are newspapers and memorabilia from the coal mining days with tributes to railroad history.
National Road Interpretive Center
The National Road Interpretive Center in Vandalia, Illinois tells the story of the surveyors, laborers and travelers of the National Road, sometimes called the Cumberland Road or National Pike. The Interpretive Center is a museum with hands-on activities for children including a Conestoga wagon that the youngsters can load for its journey. Abraham Lincoln's connection to Illinois National Road towns is also spotlighted. One of the largest artifacts is an original National Road timber dating to the 1830s. Visitors will develop a better understanding of the importance of this road to Illinois and American history as well as an appreciation for the people that were involved in its construction.
The museum, located in the original college building on the campus of historic Greenville College, features hundreds of sculptural pieces by Richard Bock, best known for his work with famed architect Frank Lloyd Wright.
Bring your children and show them a glimpse into education before the 20th century. Located on the Jr. High grounds, this schoolhouse was restored by the Bond County Retired Teachers Association.
Bond County One Room School Museum
This museum is a living monument to the more than 72 one-story schools throughout the nation that served to educate children and host community gatherings.
The monument is a tribute to Swiss poet Heinrich Bosshard, who wrote Semparcherlied here in the 1850s.
This 160-year old home has three rooms of original furniture, pictures and personal items once owned by politician William Jennings Bryan.
Originally built as a private residence in the 1870s, the house now holds an extensive collection of Civil War memorabilia, World War I bond posters, Native American artifacts, domestic arts, and items from local manufacturers.
Bronze markers give biographical information about prominent citizens from the earliest history of the community. Every fall, volunteers in period dress "resurrect" their ancestors and tell their stories during an annual cemetery walk.

Compare great Suzuki Gearbox Repairs prices in Manchester with Who Can Fix My Car.
My car went to heaven( scrapyard) after the diagnostics was carried out by this garage. I was not informed that the car will not start if the diagnostics is carried out. I was told that i should have gotten my car inspected by AA before purchase ( meaning that its my fault that i gave them a faulty car for repair ). The diagnostics carried out by this garage was rejected by the Honda Dealers so all the money i spent on it went down the drain. Also i paid £20 just for the collection of locking nut which was not checked in the first collection (by the person who was collecting the car ) and i paid for the person to get back and collect his own car as well. This garage went extra mile to contact my warranty company to claim warranty which was also got rejected. The garage says its not their problem and they were unwilling to even give any sort of discount. They did arrange the car to be towed to the Honda Dealer but before that they promised me that my car will be delivered at 5:30pm a day earlier. So i was getting mixed messages throughout the week. I think i had a combination of bad luck but i was told to share my experience by the people working in the garage so i did. Overall they are very polite.
Very fast service i wll defo use again
Good garage car went in for clutch but needed a flywheel so took them a bit to get hold of 1 coz it's a old jaguar but went out of way to sort it so thanks very much car feels like a new 1
Excellent garage Fantastic guys
I would have to say a real nice find. The company are so professional and keep to their word and price. They listen and are hard working and honest. I have to say WIK you are an amazing guy. I wish you continue and progress well in life. All the best. I will surely contact you again when I need. thanks a million.
Great garage, really happy with the service!
Great lad collected my car in and delivered and great price too A++++
Good service.I recommend!
Very friendly and efficient service. Saved me a shed load of cash by not doing unnecessary work. Would certainly use again
Saj is a great guy. Got on very well with him. Took the car to him and left it there, he diagnosed and fixed the issue on the same day. No fuss. Great guy. I will definitely recommend his garage to anyone looking for a trustworthy mechanic.
Arranged for CB Autos to attend my property to do a diagnostics check. Took time off work and waited in all morning and never showed up. No phone calls or communication, terrible customer service!! Don't waste your time with this site!!!
No problems initially - great communication to arrange a diagnostic, turned up on time and spent an hour checking electrics and locks. However, he then didn't call the following day to provide a quotation to do the work as arranged, and no response to my text. If you don't want to do the job, just say so - it prevents a delay in getting the job done and wasted money for a diagnostic that I'll have to pay again to someone who will actually finish the work! Maybe useful if you just want the diagnostic to then do the job yourself but for the vast majority of us, don't bother.
Wasn't open when arrived and didn't contact me, disappointed and wasted journey
Carl was brilliant, cost was as per the quote and car is running well. Would recommend
Outstanding service from Carl at CB Auto. What a great experience, not having the car break down - that was stressful - but the knowledgeable and swift help from CB Auto. Carl knew instantly which part had failed just from listening to the engine. I'm an instant fan. Carl and CB Auto will be taking care of my vehicles in future.
Came out same day to fix it, very friendly professional service. Cannot recommend enough. Will definitely use him again.
Turned up early, no messing job done. Very thankful as we have had a lot of time wasters regarding this job so thank you very much Matt. Highly recc
Price agreed on-line prior to work. Very happy with the work (2 front springs fitted). Took Matt a couple of hours to do the job outside my house, so it saved the hassle of having the car towed to a garage and work carried out there. I never had any competitor quotes, as I felt the quote was very reasonable. Would use again and recommend to others. Car even feels better to drive! Thanks Matt.
Great service. Car now running a lot better.
Mark was friendly and professional - very knowledgeable - job done very soon after posting add - would highly recommend to anyone needing a mobile mechanic - why wouldn't you want your car fixing outside your own home??! A***********
Excellent. Fast and friendly, price was as quoted and the best around. They also sourced me some tyres at a better price than I was going to pay. Even washed my car!
Head gasket gone, Two injectors broke, glow plug broke stuck in head. Xmas time, head needed skimming and pressure checked he still got it done on time and polished the car, and brought it back to Wales for me. Matt cheers bud goes like s+it off shovel.
decided to cancel after being laughed at for sending a message to confirm date and time for my brake bads to be fixed. sounded like a joke of a company so not worth the risk
Highly recommend Bolton Timing Chains, Full service carried out and you can really tell the difference after the service. Thank you.
Absolutely spot on, very friendly and best price by a mile. Definitely recommend and will be my garage of choice from now on
Did a good job on clutch very happy with Sarah who helped sort job out only downside is communication on the day of collection as no one answered phones leaving me to start looking for another garage but overall a good job and happy with the service!!
Unfortunately they never came to collect my car as arranged, didn't reply to my messages or calls for 2 days and then offered no apology when I finally contacted them. If there was an issue somebody should have contacted me to arrange an alternative time and it would mean I didn't have to waste a whole weekend over this. Very disappointing customer service and makes me wonder if a site such as this is worth using!
Highly recommended!! Lovely people and so helpful and the advice given was great. Unlike most garages these were there to help me not to get money out of me and I carnt thank them enough will definitely be using this garage in the future!!
Gave us a very good price for the work we had done. Took longer than they said initially but it was a big job. Happy with the work.
Excellent service from Manchester Car Care. Fast low priced quote. Work undertaken very quickly. Very helpful customer service. Very satisfied and would recommend. Will use again

To date the jets have around 10 fumbles from the line of scrimmage all from Kevin Mawae Snaps. This has been happening consistently even with 4 different quarterbacks playing. Kevin is almost 35 years old. So you can see where I am going with this.
Kevin has old man testicular disease it's so obvious. For those that don't know OMTD is a condition where as you get older your balls hang lower and lower. Right now Mawae's balls are hanging so low that they actually come out of his cup under his pads and rest of Vinny's hands. I mean how can you grab a snap with these two balls belonging to a 290 pound man resting on your hands. This is the cause of all our fumbles. Chad used to use his right hand to actually cup Mawae's balls and that is how I believe he injured his rotator cuff in the first place.
Thankfully Dr. Gary J. Alter in New York has developed a procedure called a *beep* reduction. Previously used by aging Hollywood actors I believe this procedure will soon be seen in sports medicine. *beep* reduction
I believe this surgery would be quite helpful for Mawae and could help limit the fumbles.
If it Works Vinny Testaverde could soon undergo the procedure to improve his mobility because at 42 his balls actually drag on the ground as he runs.

Instead of having to make two separate threads about these 2 shows i decided to make 1.
Californicaion is one of my fav tv shows and im looking forward to season 2 when it finishes ( I never watch tv shows an episode at a time)
Dirty Sexy Money is just outrageous. The actors play their roles with distinction. The story is really cool and its just funny.
I jus wanted to recommend them to those who have never heard of them.

Cheap product, broke before even using it
"I purchased this for use on my wedding day, so it was kept in a storage bin for a few months after buying it until my wedding day came. The day before my wedding, I took it out to find that the metal clamp which holds it shut had come apart and therefore it would not stay closed. I was able to slide it back into place, but it kept coming out over and over. I had no other options but to just use it on my wedding day, but it stayed under the table the whole time and I didn't put anything in there that I'd be too worried about losing if it fell out."

"My sister has several pairs of these GOwalk 2's and she walked all over Boston in them this past spring. So, I had to try a couple of pairs. They are so, so comfortable, and very light weight. They do run just a little bit long, I thought. I usually wear a 7 or 7 1/2 and I have plenty of room in the size 7's without socks. I will definitely look for more styles of these in the future."

If the combination of denim and skin in this title got your attention, then you're going to really dig the Lukasz Stepien Fall 2011 lookbook. Shot by Michał Kar & Maciej Piórko, it features a would-be boy band clad in dark denim with cleverly placed leather details, on-trend fur collar jackets, and killer croc print high-top kicks doing what pretty young pop stars do best: waiting backstage looking cool getting their pre-show rituals on, which apparently includes sitting around shirtless smoking a cig. Intrigued? We thought you would! Check out the full lookbook bellow.

10 Bills related thoughts after Day 1
by Joe Buscaglia
posted May 9 2014 11:26AM
The first day of the 2014 NFL Draft is in the books and the Buffalo Bills made one of the biggest splashes in the opening round by moving up to select Clemson wide receiver Sammy Watkins with the fourth overall pick.
It certainly cost them a handsome price, but Watkins is a player the Bills believe can be an immediate contributor to the team, and one of the true elite prospects from this draft class. What are some of the glaring takeaways from the first 32 picks as far as Buffalo is concerned?
Let's dive right into it:
1) Sammy Watkins is a slam dunk as a prospect
- The Bills said it themselves at the pre-draft luncheon: they view Watkins as a Percy Harvin style of impact receiver that also possesses the ability to go up and get the jump ball against any defensive back. When asked if Watkins was on par from a talent level perspective with Cincinnati wide receiver A.J. Green and Atlanta wideout Julio Jones when they were coming out of school, the Bills agreed that the Clemson pass catcher indeed was along those same lines. Speed? Check. Explosiveness? Check. Great hands? Check. Physicality in both yards after the catch and to get off press coverage? Check and check. He is an instant impact type of player, so much so that offensive coordinator Nathaniel Hackett is likely doing laps of gleeful skipping around Ralph Wilson Stadium in excitement.
2) Watkins has always been their guy. No hyperbole
- Every team that's drafting near the top tends to say the same thing about the player they ended up taking. "He was the top guy on our board." The Bills said it too, however, they were being completely honest about that fact. For a long, long time Watkins has been the apple of Buffalo's eye. They were enamored by his talents and his potential fit right from the start of the process, and pounced on the opportunity to draft him when the price became reasonable in their minds. While there were rumors out there that the Bills could look to move up all the way for either Jadeveon Clowney or Greg Robinson, league sources said not to believe that hype one bit. The only guy that they would make a dramatic move up the board for was Watkins. He got to the sweet spot for Buffalo in the range of picks four-to-five, and they capitalized on the opportunity. One league source said that if they had a chance to take Watkins, "the card was already written." This was back in March, and the adoration for the wideout started even sooner than that.
3) EJ gets a new best friend, but a lot more pressure to produce
- Once the Bills traded up and selected Watkins with the fourth overall pick, quarterback EJ Manuel responded with similar thoughts to many fans of the team on Twitter:
— EJ Manuel (@EJManuel3)
May 9, 2014
The 16 exclamation points (yep, we counted) signaled to Manuel not only that they got him the shiniest of shiny new toys for their offense, but that he could put to rest any lingering fears that the team would look to address the quarterback position in a notable way. However, it comes at a price. The clock for young quarterbacks is not nearly as long as it used to be. You can credit today's win-now beliefs along with the rookie wage scale as reasoning, but the window for young quarterbacks is getting smaller as the league grows older. With Watkins, it removes any excuses for Manuel. He needs to take a step forward. The Bills know it, their fans know it and most importantly, he knows it. If they finish with a postseason berth or just outside the playoffs that will likely buy him more time as the man in charge. However, if they tank this season and Manuel is a key reason for that, safety will not be guaranteed to anyone.
4) The emphasis on 2014 is very, very real. The price to move up proves it
- The Bills think they're close to getting back to the playoffs, and they put their money where their mouth is by trading away the first and fourth-round selections in the 2015 NFL Draft to go up and draft Sammy Watkins. Adding to the "go for it" mentality in 2014, the Bills kept their second round pick and will likely add a player on Friday that can have an immediate, and potentially starting impact for the team if all goes well. It's playoffs, just barely missing the playoffs, or bust. Whether or not the notion of the trade being induced because the team could potentially have a new owner by the summer is accurate, we won't know. But this trade up — only the second time the Bills have moved up in the order from their original first round pick in the past 32 years of drafts — signals that 2014 needs to be the year for a definitive step forward.
5) Want a QB on Day Two? Keep dreaming
- Echoing the points of the last paragraph, the "go for it" mentality also means those holding out hope for a second or third round quarterback can likely put those desires out to pasture. This is EJ Manuel's team: both the trade and the player they picked signaled that more starkly than when Commissioner Gordon goes to the rooftop to put on the skylight for Batman. The absolute earliest the Bills would think about taking a quarterback would have to be on Day Three, and skepticism remains even in that premise. EJ Manuel certainly has his detractors, but, the one truth is that the Bills' front office are not among them.
6) Too many cooks in the WR kitchen. 13, 11 on alert
- Nestled deep into
yesterday's report on WGR550.com regarding the Bills' potential draft plans
was the caveat that if the Bills went with a receiver in the first round, veteran wideout Stevie Johnson likely goes on the trading block according to a league source. The logic is very simple behind it: the Bills now have five receivers on their roster that demand playing time on offense. Four of those players were brought in by the current general manager and coaching staff, and only one has an astronomical cap hit for 2014 comparatively speaking. Johnson is signed for the next three seasons with cap hits of $8.5 million (2014), $8.85 million (2015) and $8.95 million (2016). Combine that with the clashing personalities of Johnson and head coach Doug Marrone, and it all adds up to the Bills doing what they can to try and move Johnson. The other casualty of the Watkins pick? Former third-round pick T.J. Graham, who was on thin ice even before they selected the Clemson wideout. It's put up or shut up time in training camp for Graham on both offense and special teams.
7) What a Stevie Johnson trade might bring in
- It's tough to gauge what a potential trade could bring in, so you have to base it off of how they constructed their deal to acquire Mike Williams. The teams that will likely be interested in acquiring Johnson is someone that believes that they are close. The inherent problem with that, however, is that most teams that feel they're close to contending might also be close to the cap. With a relatively high cap number in 2014, a trade to a team of that level would likely take a restructuring of his contract, where they transfer the majority of his base salary into a signing bonus to lower the hit on their cap. For a good team, the price could be as good as a low fourth or low fifth-round pick. If they are dealing with a lower level team, it could be a high fifth or a high sixth-round pick.
8) Watkins doesn't preclude them from taking a tight end as early as Round 2
- The Bills did what most of their fans wanted them to do and added a weapon to the offense for quarterback EJ Manuel, but you shouldn't be convinced that they're done adding offensive firepower. Tight end remains a need for the Bills with a long-term option in mind. If they do not feel comfortable enough with the offensive tackles, defensive ends or cornerbacks remaining on the board, a player like Washington's Austin Seferian-Jenkins or Notre Dame's Troy Niklas could be a target for them in the second round. Even if they neglect it at 41, tight end still is a need at some point throughout the next two days.
9) Only 5 WRs in Round 1 is a great friend to Buffalo
- A very, very deep wide receiver class made many teams feel as though they could wait until the second and maybe even third rounds to address that need. Marqise Lee, Cody Latimer and Jordan Matthews all remain without a team heading into the second night of the draft, and you'd have to think that trio will start to come off the board quickly. Since the Bills picked a first round wide receiver, they will not be in the market for another one in the second round, which very well could push a player they covet down to them. A run on quarterbacks at the top of the second round would certainly help, too.
10) Want a tackle? Two main options for 41
- If the Bills couldn't move up for Sammy Watkins, they would have hoped that Jake Matthews fell to them at ninth overall. As it turns out, Matthews went sixth overall and the Bills likely would have chosen North Carolina tight end Eric Ebron. The interest in Matthews signals, and rightfully so, that they are in the market for an upgrade at right tackle. Luckily for them the second tier of offensive tackle prospects are not vanquished completely as it stands 32 picks in. Two players the Bills have to be holding out hope for to last until 41 are Virginia's Morgan Moses and Nevada's Joel Bitonio. Some will bring up Alabama's Cyrus Kouandjio, but the concerns about his knee issues and how long he can be a productive player in the league are very real.

I saw a good performance by NZ for once but as I start watching, 4 wickets fall and they collapse. Dire.
Really embarassing collapse from New Zealand, and so disappointing to falter so badly here after such an excellent start from Ryder and McCullum. Theres still plenty of time to reach 250+ but its certainly not going to be the certainty it seemed 20 minutes ago.
I was pretty pleased when my brother told me that Kiwis were building a stunning opening partnership, now I sitwched on just 10 mins ago and what is this?
118/0 to 140/4

Sack Moles the guy is a moron. Harsh but it's not like he has a fantastic record behind him. Anyone with half a cricketing brain knows McCullum isn't good enough to open the batting.

****ity **** ****. Come back after 120/1 and we're four down.
Can't say McCullum getting out for 45 surprises but gutting that Taylor and Elliott out. Guptill and the Broomerang need to do a lot here (and not stagnate either).

Skip to comments.Mass email goes out to all Congressional staff: Sorry, D.C. Obamacare site has crashed
Posted on 12/05/2013 8:59:53 AM PST by The Old Hoosier
A Hill staffer passes along this email from the Senate Disbursing office, noting wryly, If they cannot get this right for friggin Congressional staff, the rest of the country is screwed. ...
(Excerpt) Read more at conservativeintel.com ...
The problems are only just beginning. The really big stuff has yet to happen but surely will. :)
When is Eric the Corrupt going to sue Moo and her buddies at CGI for the recovery of $750 million in fraud for a web site that might never work?
This is the dialog box at the top of the page:
Many people who apply will pay lower monthly premiums than those shown here. Households with yearly incomes up to about $46,000 for individuals or $94,000 for a family of four will qualify for lower costs. The prices you see are for people who don't use tobacco. You'll get final quotes for specific plans based on your income and household after you complete a Marketplace application.
Cost based on income, how about cost based on services provided?
That is 100% income redistribution, richer pay more to subsidize the poor.
Sure, Amazon wait time on Cyber-Monday was a milli-second slower than usual and the queue for full second delays did not even kick in.
Oh, yeah. When companies and public institutions that thought they were covered find out that their group plans are going to be canceled, there'll be hell to pay, which is why the Dems are desperately trying to delay the thing. Guess they should have listened to Ted Cruz...
Elitist bastards. Why should the experience for Congressional staff somehow be exceptional?
Break the opposition into little pieces, separate enough to not be a constant drip.
Several key functionalites still need to be developed and integrated into the system. That will increase complexity and compound the problems IMO. Also, the security problems are going to be monumental, and well publicized when they happen. The train wreck will get much worse.
If they cannot get this right for friggin Congressional staff, the rest of the country is screwed.
Rather suggests that 'friggin Congressional staff' are better then the rest of us, doesn't it? Arrogant A$$clowns.
I guess that staffer doesn't care about his job 'cause he's about to get fired for advertising the truth.
The friggin Congressional staff are the ones who wright the laws, that the elected legislators don't read before they vote on them. They must have thought that they had covered their butts only to find them hanging out with the rest of the peons.
"Remember, this is only for 5% of the population since the employer mandates were delayed. How much larger will this mess be when the other 95% have to sign up?"
I say 'talking point' assuming there are still people willing to talk about it. My gut feeling is those who still support Obamacare won't change their minds no matter what they hear...
I assume you're not acting surprised here.
This is the Chicago mob come to DC.
Obamacare is all about rewarding friends and penalizing enemies.
You nailed that one. Dead, DEAD silence at Thanksgiving... ;-)
Of course it is.Our salvation comes form the fact that most of the poor still can't afford coverage even if our taxes pay most of their premium.
And, what about the deductibles? I am seeing $6-12k annual deductibles in many places. This is not in the budget for any poor person.
BUT the section that verifies enrollee income and citizenship info worked......as did the healthcare website's voter registration and SNAP application functions, since the nervous Dims/Obama need that info for 2014 midterm elections.
OBAMA CALLS Mrs O: "Before she pocketed some of the billion dollars,
your pal shoulda told us they didn't teach web site construction at Princeton."
SECY SIBELIUS TO OBAMA: "While you're on your brand new brick
phone, Mr President, get a few more cases of these cute floppy disks
Mrs O's Princeton classmate provided."
During the web site crisis, Mrs O displayed her usual tolerance and compassion (sob). She ordered the WH kitchen to provide the hardworking fix-it team with glass carafes of Chock-ful-of-Nuts coffee heated on bunsen burners, cans of evaporated milk, packets of aspartame, and fresh-made donuts fried in olestra.
healthcare.gov failures include: billion dollar pay
checks to cronies, insiders, and Mrs O's Princeton classmate.......
Toni Townes-Whitley, Senior Vice President at "CGI Federal" for
Civilian Agency programs, healthcare.gov designers is Princeton Class of
1985---same dumbed-down class as Michelle Obama. Both are members of

Getting Ahead Using Your Skin Color, with graduate studies in Pay-Me-I'm-

I hadn't noticed. I try to check the site a dozen times a day. I think everyone should hit the site at least once an hour to ensure that the Federal Government is still there and looking out for our best interests.
It's going to be nothing but fun waiting for the smokers to figger out that smoking can't be a "pre-existing "condition? Aids is OK but smoking? You smokers please report immediately to your closest deathpanel. After they tie you to a post or gurney you'll get one last cigarette. I'm still waiting for my check in the mail çause the Kenyan said I was gonna save $2,500 per year——waiting-—waiting-—not holding breath tho.
The Yankee government treatment of the Indians is goig to be a picnic compared to how they handle DeathCare.
Lung cancer kills people before their time. It usually can't be cured, so it's cheaper than treating people for Diabetes, which they'll get if they eat instead of smoke and blimp out and is expensive for treatment. So wouldn't it be a better idea to provide cigarettes for free?
Meanwhile, think about all of those STDs that will happen with no-consequence sex with mulitple partners. Women with STDs are more likely to have children with lifelong problems. They'll be expensive to keep healthy. Those free methods of birth control are going to get mighty expensive for society.
So what's the only logical conclusion? Free cigarettes for all and free condoms but not free birth control!
(for those of you who don't understand my humor, it's satire. I like to take absurd premises and follow them to the logical conclusion they would cause.)
still trying to get used to this new fangled internet
HTML is so hard
BTW, what is a hyperlink?
Now look at it layin' there. It's only going to get lots worse. Along with the next spring cleaning, the country will be looking to broom the Dems' for a generation or more.
Because they are smart enough to jump on the path to become lifetime parasites.
These staffers never get fired. They know too much. Vote one bastard out and the new bastard hires the old bastard's staff. Plus a "niece" or two.
Let us not forget Oracle & Cover Oregon...
Not covered by subsidy and can be up to 50% increase. And since the poor smoke more ...
The poor are going on Medicaid. They really don't care.
The working poor smoke a lot.
Agree, but they will either get freebie (Medicaid) or heavily subsidized ACA policies.
Obamacare was designed to reward Obama supporters and penalize enemies.
But I don't think the smoker's penalty is subsidized.
Agree, but in the lower income brackets the total bill isn't very much.
Agree. Obamacare is going to do untold damage to our economy, and will be the direct cause of tens of thousands of deaths. This is the sort of thing that dictatorships are toppled for.
The Dems in Congress will be lucky if all they do is lose elections for a decade or so. The American public's reaction could be much, much worse.
"But I don't think the smoker's penalty is subsidized. "
So they should just lie. Lying seems to be the "in" thing
with this administration.
Bwahahahahaahahahahahaahahahahahahahahahaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahahahahahahahahaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa. DIMs/LIBs choke on your just desserts. Choke you preening maggots!

Does the dolphin really need an eye ball? Can't it be just presumed there, like in nyphan's.
That dolphin looks like it's dead. I hope like hell that isn't going to be our logo
I think it looks great, my only suggestion is to play with the direction his eye is looking, Im not a fan of how he looks with his eyes pointing up, I think for him to look straight would look better. Just something to play with.
Make it look like this designer and this it the one. Bravo!!!!

That being said, it's still markedly superior to the leaked version, which looks worse than a dead cat. Actually I'd prefer every cat to be dead...
I don't like it. Again, it looks like a cartoon character which is mostly due to the eye itself. The right fin is just strange looking, and overall the animal is just too skinny - it looks like a minnow with a dorsal fin to be honest.
This is not better than the current or original logo, so why change to this?
