Coins, Currency, and Medals
The Museum possesses one of the largest numismatic collections in the world. The collections include over 1 million objects, comprising coins, medals, decorations, and pieces of paper money. Among the many great rarities here are some of the world's oldest coins, created 2,700 years ago. But the collection also includes the latest innovations in electronic monetary exchange, as well as beads, wampum, and other commodities once used as money. A special strength lies in artifacts that illustrate the development of money and medals in the United States. The American section includes many rare and significant coins, such as two of three known examples of the world's most valuable coin, the 1933 double eagle $20 gold piece.

How to be omniscient ...
By Massood Delairi on Aug 10, 2011
OK, so now that I have your attention … let's not get carried away … we're not taking about a supreme being here … we all know, it's not possible to know everything … but what if you could have access to the right information whenever you wanted it ….
Well, a couple of decades ago, that would have been possible only if you could have superhuman speed and lived in a library, but nowadays we can do that by just using internet search engines.
Remember how we went through a phase of having too much information on our finger tips and people typically referred to it as an 'information overload' era. Well, the information is still there, but Internet search engines changed the landscape by making that information accessible and meaningful. Today, we are so spoiled to get the right info on the first page of our search results that we rarely go to the 2nd page. We even don't bother to remember things anymore since we can just 'google' it.
That's all fine with the information that is publicly available. What about your intellectual property which needs to be secure and reside within the walls of your organization? Don't you want to have the same type of access internally? I am sure the answer is yes, but then you might wonder... how?
Well, all you need is a crawler to go look for documents, extract text from them, index them and then allow the users to easily search and locate them. You may say … this can easily be done today with my operating system. True, but that's from a personal productivity stand point because OS's can search as long as your files are accessible to them. However, in a large organization, your documents are probably scattered across multiple data stores, which have different interfaces and a wide range of security restrictions. What if you are dealing with a lot of CAD data which cannot be searched by a typical OS?
What you need is then an application that can retrieve information from many different data sources and support many types of file formats. As far as I know, there is no vendor that can provide a solution out of the box that can reach out and get information from multiple data sources, support all types of engineering and office documents, index them and then allow the end user to search them securely.
One such solution that we have built is the combination of Oracle Universal Content Management (UCM), Oracle Secure Enterprise Search (SES) and AutoVue, which is available today. This solution is very unique because of the following reasons:
As long as you have Oracle UCM and AutoVue, there is no additional cost to using this solution since Secure Enterprise Search is shipped with UCM with a restricted use license.
AutoVue supports many many file types, including Office, PDF, 2d and 3D, so the chances are your file type is already covered
The solution is very easy to use, as it has a google-like interface, which is familiar to most, so you don't need to be a DBA or administrator to use it. If you also have the VueLink for UCM, you can view the documents directly from the search results
SES supports a multitude of other content repositories as well, so the solution can easily be extended (with a full licence of SES and relevant Connectors ) to allow other data sources to be searched; and if your data source is not supported by SES, it allows building custom add-ons by exposing standards based APIs
Finally, since you have AutoVue as part of this solution, you an also take advantage of many other great features of AutoVue such as viewing, annotation, comparison, measurement, digital mockup, real-time collaboration etc. etc.
So perhaps this solution will not make you omniscient … but at least you can make the right decisions, save time and have access to the most up to date information in your enterprise, and do all this quickly, easily and securely.

Adult sites also place in an Experian review of web browsing times.
Thad Rueter
Social media clobbers shopping, shopping beats e-mail, and e-mail just manages to outshine porn. That's according to a new report from Experian Marketing Services that describes how consumers spend their time browsing the web on personal computers.
The report distills Experian data into a breakdown of how much time consumers spend on each activity per hour spent online. The report covers three English-speaking markets: the United States, the United Kingdom and Australia.
The findings, for the full year 2012, generally follow the same patterns among the three countries. In the United States, for instance, consumers spent about 16 minutes of every hour online—or 27% of that 60-minute period—visiting social networks or forums. That's down from about 30% in 2011, Experian says.
Shopping accounts for 9% of that online time for U.S. consumers, a slim increase from 8% last year. E-mail takes up 5% of every hour online, down from 6% in 2011. Adult web sites suck up 4% of that time, the same as in 2011.
Entertainment sites command 15% of the time of U.S. online consumers, down from 16% last year. Only 1% of that time went to travel sites, Experian says, the same as last year. "Other" sites accounted for 27% of the online time, with news, business, and lifestyle sites accounting for a few percentage points each.
E-mail had a much better showing on mobile devices used by U.S. consumers, with 23% of the time devoted to that communication method, according to data from the first quarter of 2013. Social networking came in second, with 15%, followed by entertainment (13%), shopping (11%) and travel (9%). The report did not identify the other uses, and the mobile statistics do not include the use of mobile apps.
"Understanding consumer behavior across channels is more important than ever as more visits are being made on the move, particularly among social networking and e-mail," says Bill Tancer, general manager of global research for Experian Marketing Services. "With smartphones and tablets becoming more powerful, our data clearly indicates the difference between mobile and traditional desktop usage further enabling the 'always on' consumer mentality. Marketers need to understand these differences, as well as regionally, to ensure campaigns can be tailored for better and more effective engagement."
For the United Kingdom and Australia, the main findings are as follows for consumers using personal computers:
• In the United Kingdom, social in 2012 accounted for 22% of the time spent online, followed by entertainment (15%) and shopping (10%). Adult sites were at 4%, with e-mail at 3%.
• In Australia, social in 2012 stood at 24%, followed by entertainment (15%) and shopping (6%). Adult sites were at 4%, with e-mail at 2%.

Want to hire Ray Dalio, founder of the world's largest hedge fund and a man once dubbed "the king of the rich hedge fund industry," as your personal economics tutor?
You don't have to. The Bridgewater Associates founder's "How the Economic Machine Works" is posted to YouTube. The half-hour video gives Dalio's crash course on understanding the economy in, believe it or not, a pretty entertaining cartoon form. It's given in plain English and in a manner approaching the opposite of Ferris Bueller's economics teacher.
Here's how Dalio explained the rationale when he sent the video to Barron's:
I did this video because I can no longer sit by quietly watching a never-ending stream of economic tragedies unfold because of what I believe are misunderstandings of how the economy works…. "[S]ophisticated" descriptions of how the economy works (e.g. MV=PQ, with supply and demand curves structured as they are, etc.) are more theoretical than practical. So I set out this simple template that has worked well for me, hoping that it might do others some good.
Besides YouTube, also keep an eye on Bridgewater's site EconomicPrinciples.org, which has a paper on the same subject (for those of you who can't be caught watching YouTube at work).

By GARY ARRINGTONSports writer
Last week was a good, horrible week. It was good in that the Lady Spartans played three times and won three times but it was horrible because of the manner of their play. It is a true testament to how good these girls actually are when they can play as bad as they did last week and still come away with wins. Emery defeated Grantsville on the road 69-57 and then returned home to defeat Pineview 63-43 and Dixie 52-41.
We witnessed 32 percent shooting in one game, 11 turnovers in another, missed lay-ups and air balls. And some of the shots that missed, really missed. And the energy that we have come to expect was simply not there. Maybe 10 games in 18 days and four bus trips took something out of them. Maybe the Christmas break will be good for them.
And now to the wins. At Grantsville, Emery was down 32-26 at the half, but rallied with a huge third quarter to grab the lead 50-39. Rachel Rasmussen was the leading scorer with 13 points followed closely by Jodie Lundell with 12 points. Jodie had four 3-pointers in the second half. Frankie Komar and Jodi Robertson each had 10 points. Meagan Pearson had 9 points, Camille Fehlberg had 8 points and ShiAnne Allred had 7 points.
Back at the Spartan Center, Emery was just too much for the Panthers. Even in their sluggish state they are formidable. Emery took the first quarter lead at 15-8 and never really let Pineview any closer.
Camille led the scoring with 13 points followed closely by ShiAnne with 12 points. Camille was 9 for 10 at the free throw line and ShiAnne was 8 for 10. Meagan scored 11 points to also finish in double figures.
Jodi had 8 points, the other Jodie had 6 points, Rachel had 5 points, Caitlin Hansen had 4 points and Frankie and Shalae Cox had 2 points each.
Against Dixie, the game was in doubt until the final period. After leading 35-34 at the end of three quarters, they had trailed 32-27; they started the fourth quarter on a 10-2 run. Four quick points by ShiAnne seemed to spark the team in that final period.
Leading scorer was Camille with 13 points. Meagan and Jodie L. had 9 points, Jodi R. had 8 points, ShiAnne had 6 points, Rachel had 4 points and Frankie had 2 points.
It was ugly but a win is a win. Emery will play Dec. 19 at Heber and Dec. 21 at Vernal. Emery will be at home against Springville on Jan. 5.

Skip to comments.Justice Department bars Texas voter ID law
Posted on 03/12/2012 9:15:38 AM PDT by OldeconomybuyerEdited on 03/12/2012 10:03:50 AM PDT by Admin Moderator. [history]
The Justice Department has blocked a new law in Texas requiring voters to show a photo ID, saying that it disproportionately harms Hispanic residents.
The action is the second time in three months that the Obama administration has blocked a state voter ID law. In December, the Justice Department struck down South Carolinas new law requiring photo identification at the polls, saying it discriminated against minority voters. [snip]
Whatever happened to "States' Rights?"
"He has refused his Assent to Laws, the most wholesome and necessary for the public Good."
that the measure may disproportionately harm Hispanics
No evidence, no proof...just "may".
Proper response is "scru u".
They need id's to get welfare and the other freebies from the taxpayers...somehow they have id for that....
Whatever happened to States Rights?
About the only one left today is your 'right' to send to DC your tax dollars.......
Interestingly enough the piece of legislation known as the Voting Rights Act was signed into law by Texan Lyndon Baines Johnson in 1965.
Of course it's biased ... against people who aren't entitled to vote.
While I'm not a Perry fan, he would get lotsa points for treating Obama/Holder like a 2YO with a tantrum, tell them "NO!", with ho explaination, enforce it FULLY and let the cards fall where they may with the voters.
If you are a US citizen and qualified to vote you have a TX driver's license or some other form of official ID such as SS card etc. If you don't have that ID you are probably an illegal alien. The DOJ knows this as well.
Illegal alien = Democratic voter
dems think they're too stupid.
You can kiss them goodbye. Adolf Obozo and his goons Need those Illegal 's votes to stay in power. Its all about control.
Whether this action is to protect those illegally in Texas, or is merely one more effort to create a sense of grievance among a particular ethnic group, intended to be exploited by Leftwing politicians, this interference is not right. The States were intended to have control of the suffrage, both State & Federal, within their borders. While there have been restrictions on that right, adopted by Constitutional Amendments, none of those Amendments has denied the right to require a proper form of identification.
William Flax
They can't allow any state to ID voters this year. Obama will need all the cheating he can get to win.
"disproportionately harm Hispanics"
Menaing the law would prevent Mexican illegal aliens form voting.
I hate it when the feds mess with Texas.
Texas reps should write a bill to impeach Holder and then go on every TV station and radio program and scream that this is violating states rights.
I would make this a campaign issue in a heartbeat. The usurper in chief has got to go.
But that isn't a 'photo ID' which was being put into place.
2. What kind of identification will be required to qualify to vote in person under the new program?
A: A voter will be required to show one of the following forms of photo identification at the polling location before the voter will be permitted to cast a vote.
With the exception of the U.S. citizenship certificate, the identification must be current or have expired no more than 60 days before being presented for voter qualification at the polling place.
The U.S. Justice Department is using its power under the Voting Rights Act to halt the Texas law, saying in a letter to the state today that the measure may disproportionately harm Hispanics.
Okay. WHY?
Is the Federal Government claiming that Hispanics are incompetent? That they lack the knowledge or abilities needed to acquire the proper ID?
Are they claiming that Hispanics don't drive, don't work, don't buy houses, don't rent apartments and hundreds of other daily activities that require photo ID?
It won't harm Hispanics, only illegals.
I want to see a state file an emergency appeal to the USSC to define the actual meaning of "All men are created equal" based on the critical need to have the vote issues settled prior to the election. Either a Black man/white man/hispanic man are equal or some are less than which is not Constitutional. Period.
Such would in turn address many leftist wedges.
If a White man has access to photo ID and a hispanic man does not, then clearly the white man has an unfair advantage on the poor ID-less hispanic. This is clearly unjust and MUST be setteled IMMEADIATELY so as not to violate the constitutional rights of the poor downtrodden other that privleged white man.
or at least if the Feds are going to block States Rights it should take an Act of Congress, not the personal decisions of a peon bureaucrat
Seems like the title of this article, and all others after it, should be "Obama Administration Advocates Voter Fraud".
This has been the Obama plan all along for re-election: increase the number of illegals registered to vote and go all-out pandering to them. Tipping point has arrived.
"Injustice"by J Christian Adams, Regenery 2011
How does it "harm" hispanics to show an I.D., you vile POS race monger Holder?
Congress passed a 25-year extension of the voting rights act, signed into law by George W. Bush in 2006. That means, unless repealed, this monstrosity will be around until 2031, and radical jackwagons like Eric Holder can set aside redistricting plans, voter ID requirements, and just about anything else they want to by declaring it might dilute minority rights.
Not to worry, though—by 2030 whites may be a minority and then could have 1 year to claim discrimnation under the law before congress would let it expire as no longer needed.
You're not suggesting that Holder is racist, are you? Oh, the shock of it all....
This makes no sense since the courts have already upheld the other states with voter ID laws.
This makes no sense since the courts have already upheld the other states with voter ID laws.
A court case if it can get there may be decided differently but his is an edict by the Justice Dept under the VRA authority.
Stall and disrupt/PR...nothing more.
You already have to show id to do everything. I just had to show id to buy a video game yesterday, and I look most of my 40+ years old.
Sorry Obama. Ain't no amount of voter fraud in the world gonna win you Texas...
Just look at the voter fraud case in upstate New York. They were targeting the disabled, immigrants, and the poor.
Joe died at 48 years old in 1957, that was just 2 years after Edward R. Murrow assassinated Joe's career and person. That put an end to shining a spotlight on the infiltration of the communists.
He was best friends with Joe and John Kennedy. Both were very anti-communist. Five years after Tail Gunner Joe died of liver failure, JFK was assassinated. I think that was the event that marked the end of the Democratic party as a legitimate constitutionally based party.
Shortly thereafter LBJ took their first step toward socialism and communism with his "Great Society" or "Great Socialism Plan".
Another example of concern about GW's intelligence and his ability to make critical decisions. Sorry I ever voted for him as gov of Texas in the first place.
I was a huge, huge fan of his at one time but his sheer inability to pick up the veto pen shows his lack of resolve.
Maybe there needs to be men in black leather jackets holding billy clubs standing at each voting location ... Holder doesn't seem to have a problem with that and I figure it would cut way down on the fraud.
"Whatever happened to States Rights?
States rights were permanently laid to rest in an Appomattox court house in April, 1865.
It's time the rubber meet the road. Every county sheriff should enforce voter ID at each poling place anyway. In places where a lefty sheriff won't do it then send in the Rangers. Let Obama deal with that.
Exceptional idea . . . make that suggestion to your Texas U.S. Representatives in the House and both of your U.S. Senators.
This SHOULD BE THE ISSUE on which liberalism itself is exposed as the fraud it has always been, and should make the Democratic Party a laughing stock.
I am dumbfounded that liberals aren't embarrassed to make the argument they are making, and I'm even more astounded a majority of the American public seems to be buying their argument.
We are DOOMED!
Whatever happened to States Rights?
Whatever happened to States Rights?
Holder = Critical Race Theory (CRT), Bell — prioritized and applied in Judaical decisions in Obama administration
Hell, LBJ just screwed with the election results the old-fashioned way. Here is Wikipedia's brief description of a three-volume examination of LBJ's career by Robert Caro (a forth volume to be released this year):
The Years of Lyndon Johnson
Caro's books portray Johnson as alternating between scheming opportunist and visionary progressive. Caro argued, for example, that Johnson's victory in the 1948 runoff for the Democratic nomination for the U.S. Senate was achieved through extensive fraud and ballot stuffing.
I had to sign on the dotted line to buy Mucinex at a Walmart pharmacy.
Hell, you can't buy Sudafed in TX without a drivers license!!!!!
BO is a fraud!!!!!
"You already have to show id to do everything"
Exactly. Here in GA you have to show ID to buy wine or beer at the grocery store no matter how old you look. I've seen the cashiers turn illegals down because they didn't have ID.

Loc-R-Bar Lock Alarm System
When properly installed, the Loc-R-Bar Lock Alarm System secures all deck lockers by extending across the entire deck surface, gunwale to gunwale. Even if thieves break out your hatch locks, they won't be able to open the lockers to get to your equipment.
And just in case - the Lock-R-Bar Lock Alarm System includes the Loc-R-Bar Padlock Alarm, which features a 100-decibel alarm built into a hardened steel and zinc-alloy padlock. The alarm is set to sound for ten second intervals every time the padlock is disturbed - making it difficult to get a pair of bolt cutters around the lock without bleeding from the ears. Keep your gear safe with the Loc-R-Bar Lock Alarm System.

Nice chapter, but I'm kinda confused. Is Sakura crying because of remembering the past and the glory days of team 7 or is it more to do with pain she is in from stressing her body out?
Also, that crystal ball reminded me of the Sage, and I immediately taught the Sage had died and passed the item down, but I believe the Orb on Gamakichi is to big to be "that" orb.
So Sasuke has returned to being a "shady" character. I'm more interested in Oro conversation with Tsunade and the other kages.

October 29, 2009
URBANA– October 29, 2009. Quinn Administration officials today continued a statewide launch of the newest Veterans' Cash scratch-off lottery ticket, the Stars & Stripes ticket. Governor Quinn began the tour in Chicago on Wednesday, October 28, followed by stops in Peoria and Springfield.
The ticket's net proceeds benefit rehabilitative programs and services for Illinois Veterans. Since Governor Quinn first championed and launched the program in 2006, Veterans' Cash has awarded more than $7 million to Veterans organizations statewide.
"As the nation prepares to honor its military heroes this coming Veterans Day, we encourage the public to honor their sacrifices by buying a Veterans' Cash-Stars & Stripes ticket," said Governor Quinn. "I'm proud that this program has awarded more than $7 million to programs supporting Illinois' Veterans, and we look forward to doing even more."
On Thursday, Illinois Department of Veterans' Affairs Director (IDVA) Dan Grant and Illinois Lottery officials will make stops in Central and Southern Illinois.
The schedule includes:
• Champaign-Urbana: 9 a.m. -- Illini Union Pine Lounge, 1401 West Green Street, Urbana• Carbondale: 3 p.m. -- Southern Illinois University Student Health Center, 374 East Grand
Veterans Cash is the Illinois Lottery's first ticket where 100 percent of the net proceeds support Illinois' Veterans. Since its inception, Veterans Cash has awarded more than $7 million to more than 75 organizations supporting Veterans throughout the state.
"I encourage everyone who is interested in supporting Veterans to buy a $2 Stars & Stripes ticket," said IDVA Director Dan Grant. "It's a fun and beneficial way to give back to the men and women who risked their lives in defense of our freedoms. Under Governor Quinn's leadership, Veterans Cash has a proven track record of providing essential funding for organizations that are helping Veterans in need."
Proceeds from the sale of Stars & Stripes tickets are deposited in an interest-bearing account in the State Treasury called the Illinois Veterans Assistance Fund. The General Assembly appropriates this money solely to the Illinois Department of Veterans' Affairs (IDVA), which awards the money in grants that fund additional services and conducts research relating to veterans' Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, homelessness, health insurance costs, long term care and disability benefits.
Acting Lottery Superintendent Jodie Winnett announced an additional bonus: for every ten non-winning Stars & Stripes tickets returned to the Lottery, $20 will be donated for care packages to be sent to service members abroad. Visit www.proudtogive.com for more information.
"To date, we've released seven tickets into the market and raised millions to support Illinois' Veterans," Acting Superintendent Winnett said. "We're excited to launch this new ticket and continue to provide important funding for Veterans across the state."
Stars & Stripes is currently available at Illinois Lottery retail locations throughout the state. Each ticket costs $2 and has a top prize of $20,000.
To send a care package to a soldier, visit www.proudtogive.com for all the details. For more information on Stars & Stripes please visit www.illinoislottery.com or to apply for a Veterans' Cash grant, visit the IDVA website at veterans.illinois.gov.

By PATSY STODDARDEditor
Another year is rolling around to its conclusion. Thanksgiving is upon us this week. Thanksgiving is a favorite holiday of mine. I love the food and having family over for dinner. We have so many things to be thankful for in our country. A few weeks ago, I was asked by a church group to speak to them on gratitude. I spent a couple of weeks mulling it over and then a few hours writing the talk.
In thinking about gratitude and being thankful the first thing that came to mind for me is my family. I'm sure they don't know how much I appreciate them for all they have to put up with having a wife and a mother who is the editor of the local newspaper. It's a lovely job, don't get me wrong, but a very time consuming job. In a day's time I can be from one end of the county to the other and we have a huge county.
They have learned to cook ramen noodles for their dinner as their mom attends another meeting. They have learned to pick the cleanest dirty Levis out of the laundry basket and wear them to school again. They have also learned to do their own laundry. I am grateful for their sacrifices so I can make sure the county is covered each week.
I am grateful for our country. I always love Veteran's Day which we recently celebrated. My dad, passed away in 1988, but I always remember him at Veteran's Day and am thankful for his sacrifices and those of my father-in-law as well who liberated concentration camps in Germany on his tour of duty. I remember my dad coming home with what he called a hula girl, tattooed on his upper arm. He said it was pretty hard to go in the army and not come back with a tat of some sort.
I enjoy being able to go to the Veteran's Day programs presented by our county American Legion members and our school children. It's awesome to see them remembering the Veterans. I am sure those of us who have never been in a war can't truly appreciate what they went through and the sacrifices those men and women made and still make so we can live in a free country.
I am very thankful for the freedom of speech, the freedom for people to agree and disagree in this country, and still be brother and sister Americans. Ready to defend our country on a moments notice, ready to go into harm's way, so mothers and children are safe.
I am grateful for modern conveniences. Each year I go to a local preschool and tell them about pilgrims. I let them rub the ears of popcorn together and get the kernels and put them in the hot air popper and pop them. I grow popcorn and Indian corn for these children so they can get a small taste of what it was like when we had to fend for ourselves. When everything we had was of our own making or we traded what we had made for the products of others. Back before we had money to buy everything our country ran on a barter system.
If you didn't raise your own food, chances are you didn't eat. They didn't have welfare back then. We could only consume what we have produced. We have come a long way. We no longer wash our clothes in the creek, but most have washing machines.
Not all countries are as lucky as ours. If we have never visited anywhere else, chances are we might not appreciate what we have here. If you have lived for a time in a foreign country. Your knowledge and appreciation of the advantages we have here are more profound.
I speak of my son who served in the Fiji Islands, he washed his clothes in the ocean, they lived on canned fish and corned beef hash. But, when he arrived home he sure appreciated his mother's cooking more than ever.
What opportunities we have here. We may be in a recession, but we are still surely blessed and rich beyond measure. I heard a story not long back of a man from Cleveland and he told how his mother went from house to house with two small children in a stroller asking to clean houses and do any work she could because her husband had passed away and she had no one to take care of her and the children but herself. Those were hard times he said, we don't have such hard times today, maybe there is more help today, maybe we have been taught to look for those who need a helping hand and are willing to lift them up.
Yes, the holidays are fast approaching. I hope we can look for opportunities to serve the less fortunate in our communities and help all to have a wonderful Thanksgiving and bright Christmas.

Skip to comments.Obama Begins Push to Confiscate IRAs & 401ks
Posted on 11/16/2012 11:45:13 PM PST by rocksandbroncs
It may be time to take the tax hit and withdraw funds from private retirement accounts before they are forced into long term T-bonds.
The Obama administration is reportedly quickly moving on plans to nationalize private 401k and IRA retirement accounts, and replace them with government sponsored annuities(aka Treasury bonds that the Treasury currently cant sell to anyone but the Fed).
National Seniors Council Director Robert Crone warns: This whole issue is moving forward very quickly. Already there is a bill requiring all businesses to automatically enroll their employees in IRA plans in which part of every employees paycheck would be automatically deducted and deposited into this account. If this passes, the government will be just one step away from being able to confiscate all these retirement accounts.
(Excerpt) Read more at silverdoctors.com ...
More fearmongering from bullion peddlers?
Obama stated that anyone with enough money for a retirement account didn't need a tax subsidy (tax free IRA).
The proposal was that to qualify for tax free exemption, the account must contain equal amounts of U.S. treasury bonds.
Has to pass the House.
I will watch this VERY closely, but my initial response is this has to be fake or exaggerated.
If this is true this is THE FINAL STRAW before the government owns us. It will change everything and all the rules will be re-written.
It is completely unacceptable if true.
Not this again. Confiscation is not going to happen.
Not with an Executive Order that won't be over ridden by a compliant Senate. We don't need no stinking House.
If it were still America it would have to pass the House.
Income has dropped under the Obama economy. Some states have raised taxes. Obama has raised some taxes. People have no income left to invest after they pay their bills.
Those people who do have a little money are paying down debt before the dollar implodes and the USA defaults on its debt.
Individual IRA and 401k are the only means the middle class has of making up for the failure of the Social Security System to provide adequate retirement income.
If that dumb bell thinks it favors the rich, slap a restriction on the rich dudes they'll find a way to make money anyway.
Poor people may not have money to invest, but with redistribution they seem to do ok when it comes to fancy cars, cell phones, big screen TVs, medicaid, food stamps/food.
Maybe if they would restore the work requirement, people would work and draw less welfare and the people supporting them could keep some of the money they make instead of redistributing it.
How is it fair for someone to work 16 hour days, and have the government take that money for politicians to give out to buy votes?
Also, the TAX we know as 0bamacare was started in the House.. Sort of.. When the Senate got a House Bill and gutted it then passed the new Bill. Could see the same Senate TRICK with this Bill. Is there a law that says the Senate can't gut a House Bill then pass it as something entirely different? Should be!
Don't bet on that! This idea was first floated when Clinton was POTUS, they didn't do it because they feared the populace would literally string up members of Congress from streetlights & tree limbs . If this gets passed Congresscritters getting shot by blue hairs at town hall meetings might be a good thing.
Not "confiscation" simply redefine what is allowed & what is allowed is YOU get to roll over you retirement account into Double E savings bonds by decree or else you get to pay extra high taxes on the accounts as a way to "nudge " you to do what the junta wants you to do.
They might implement this as part of future 401k/IRA investments, but I seriously doubt they will even present a bill to touch existing funding. This is one area where the people will rise up against their own.
I believe it eventually will happen.
In January 2015 when the Democrats retake control of the House, it won't be a problem.
I distinctly recall that dingbat Liz Warren yapping about this years ago. If I can find a link to it, I'll share.
Just talked to my FA today about this crap and the advice for now is, do nothing.
Much of the push toward 401(k)s was not driven by ordinary workers. It was driven by CEOs looking for tax protection in order to maximize the value of their retirements. If you read the legislative history of the 401(k), it's clear this was a tax break for the folks who made lots and lots of money. That's the irony. What it was designed for and what it's being put to use for are totally different from each other. Elizabeth Warren
You pay income taxes on your IRA when you withdraw from it..the crappy government now makes you withdrawl money bases on your protected life span....I have to draw out more than I need, so when my grandkids come around I give the 50 or 100 dollars...........
Should have to take rifles out of our hands first here.
Executive orders are subject to judicial review and can be declared unconstitutional. The caveat being that someone has to bring suit in order for that review to occur.
Reporter: "Why do you rob banks?"
Willie Sutton: "That's where the money is."
Attacking Savings in any of its forms seems a natural to this Administration. Gotta have more to spread around.
Your words have iron in them.
but my initial response is this has to be fake or exaggerated.....They've been trotting this out since the '80's. Was Jesse Jackson's baby for years. I think you'd have heard a lot more of this if it is imminent.
Your 401K consists of a series of 1s and 0s on a computer backed up by your legal system.
After MF Global it's evident that your legal system doesn't give a damn about assets if they don't belong to the right people.
Sell your 401K. Buy physical gold and silver and stand over them with a gun.
It isn't. I told a subcontractor to bill me more to cut profits. I'd rather it went there than to Obama.
If we continue with Boehner's leadership, you are probably correct. Boehner is going to huff and puff over Fiscal Cliff negotiations and then fold and allow higher taxes. He will lose and throw away conservative support and then the Democrats will win.
More fearmongering from bullion peddlers?Bingo!
Great advice! If one lives in a high tax state, cashing in the 401K is probably going to cost one close to 50% in taxes and penalties. That will require gold to double from current levels to break even on paper. If PM's drop by 50%, one will be out 75%..
If it were still America it would have to pass the House.
401k/IRA investments
I never fell for the bait and simply saved money in my own accounts.
All of you have to keep in mind......if a plan is even mentioned in government circles, no matter what.....IT WILL EVENTUALLY BECOME LAW.
Executive orders are subject to judicial review and can be declared unconstitutional.
Have you looked at the "stacked" Supreme Court lately? Are these the judges you are speaking of?
What part of "the president has the power of kings" don't you understand?
The percentage of "the people" who have significant private retirement savings is relatively small. We are the Kulaks. The who plan of the Marxist-Alinskys is to isolate us middle-class savers and small business owners and destroy us.
"The People" who will rise up will not be a large enough number to stop this. All that "rising up" will accomplish is to identify the kulaks and counter-revolutionaries so that their heads can roll.
It has been mentioned even before Bush was Prez - I still haven't felt the need to liquidate my IRAs so I get a double benefit of having my cash and dining on government "cake".
the "whole plan" not "who plan"
PMs will only drop when there is someplace BETTER to put the resource. There won't be until Zero andhis minions are gone. He can rig elections but he can't rig reality. Or "Money talks bullcrap walks".
Exactly! Not confiscation. They are merely "guaranteeing" your retirement account. By making you put it all into T bills that the Fed buys...
....anyone know how the Roth is affected....thanks in advance
He won't need to rig reality. If you reach a certain level of stupidity on the part of the people, class warfare talk can shift enough of the levers of power (he's already stacked the lower levels of the judiciary) such as to permit him to stop rigging and start using force, i.e., to stop the Alinsky-ite subterfuges and just nakedly seize power.
I think you might add that getting .10 % interest on your CD's is not conducive to saving either.
I don't see them taking existing 401k's or IRA's. If it's attempted, a uprising would likely be quite successful because those that would be enforcing such a takeover have them too, unless they exempt federal employee 401K's.
If we have another market sell off, nothing is immune. Gold rebounded nicely from the last one, but that is no guarantee of future behavior..
Link doesn't work for me.

Advocates of healthy school lunches are celebrating the growing popularity of fresh local produce in schools, but at a statewide conference this week in Sturbridge, Massachusetts, they're also addressing some new challenges.
The Massachusetts Farm-to-school project, based in Amherst, says two-thirds of all school districts in the state now buy at least some of their produce from local farms. Project director Kelly Erwin says she hears, anecdotally, that more students buy school lunches when fresh food is served.
But with increased demand come complications. For one, it can be hard to get fresh food to isolated schools, and area farms are struggling to produce enough of it.
At the same time, many school cafeterias don't have the equipment or know-how to process fresh food.
She'd like to see local school districts invest in full kitchens for cafeterias, but districts are also dealing with the issue of cost, especially as new federal guidelines have increased the fruit and vegetable servings required in each meal — although Erwin says buying local does not tend to raise prices. On Thursday the Massachusetts farm-to-school convention will also address topics like school gardens, in-school composting, and farming curriculum.

The Emery High boys' basketball team played twice last week and although the games finished closer than the players or the coaches would have liked, the team still ended the week with two victories. On Tuesday night, the Spartan team traveled to Roosevelt and defeated the host Union team 65-56 after bolting to a 39-21 halftime lead. On Friday night, Emery traveled to Manti and defeated the home team 60-58 after leading 34-27 at the half.
Union came back in the third quarter of the game with a better defensive effort that took Emery temporarily out of their game. After leading by 18 points, Union outscored the Spartans by 9 points in the quarter to make the Spartan fans just a little nervous. Emery responded in the final period as each team scored 15 points in the period and the Spartans won the game.
At Manti, Emery built the seven-point halftime lead only to get outscored in the third quarter by 11 and trail 45-41 after three periods. Emery responded with a 19-point fourth quarter effort and won the game.
Guards Dillon Wilstead and Bailey Faimalo have now fully stepped into the role of team leaders with their on-court play. The two are the leading scorers on the team, come away with the most steals each game and are the leaders in assists. While accepting that basketball is a team sport and this team is loaded in talent, Wilstead and Faimalo make it tough on defenses as those defenses cannot key any one player.
Dillon scored 14 points against Union and 27 against Manti while Bailey scored 23 against Union and 16 against Manti. For the season, Dillon is averaging 19 points per game while Bailey is averaging nearly 17. Both average around three rebounds per game, around three steals per game while Bailey is averaging nearly nine assists per game and Dillon three assists per game.
Emery has a good inside game with Drexler Tanner, Gavin McDermott and Beau Roundy. The three average a combined 20 rebounds per game, two thirds of the team total. The three also average over 15 points per game and have blocked 14 shots. More importantly they are not fouling out of games and are playing well the entire game.
Last week at Union, also scoring in the game were McDermott with 12 points, McKlane Allred and Tyson Roper with 5 points each and Tanner with 4 points.
At Manti, Tanner pulled down 8 rebounds while Gavin had 5 and Roundy had 4 rebounds. Wilstead had 5 steals in the game to lead the team while Faimalo and McDermott each had 3 steals. Faimalo had 9 assists and Wilstead 2 assists.
Also scoring in the game were McDermott with 5 points, Allred, Tanner and Ridge Nielson with 3 points each, Roundy with 2 points and Tyson Roper with 1 point.
As soon as the Spartans consistently hit the three-point shot, the team will be hard to defend. The players are taking good shots within the context of the offense but the ball just doesn't want to drop. As soon as it does, Emery will be playing at championship level.
This week Emery has two home games but unfortunately for some fans one of those games was last night as the Spartans hosted Merit Academy.
On Wednesday night, Emery will close out their pre-Christmas schedule with a game against American Leadership Academy. Emery will travel to Carbon on the Friday after Christmas.

amika—meaning "girlfriend" or "friend" in a number of languages—lives up to its name as hair's best friend. Designed in New York, amika creates intelligent products that encourage creativity and promote healthier hair. Infusing the latest technology with a creative edge, amika hair styling tools are born to perform and live to impress.
It Works. Look No Further.After my healthy hair was left really damaged (fried) after my last color service, I was faced with cutting my hair shorter if I couldn't restore it. My hair was like rope - I kid you not. I learned (from the pro's) that using treatments with protein will continue to dry the hair shaft so I began looking into some of the oils. I tried the Jose Moran Argan oil and really liked the way my hair looked, but it was a temporary fix. Hair reverted back to dried rope prior to heat styling. I received the Amika sample in an old order and had not used it until now. I applied it to my damaged hair one night with the intention of shampooing in the morning. When I awoke, my hair was so soft and healthy looking. This oil is super light and just absorbs into my hair without leaving any oily appearance. I washed/conditioned with Joico products and then reapplied the Amika oil to my towel dried hair. Again, the hair absorbed the Amika leaving it silky and to date, it has not reverted back to the dry processed "rope." My hair is transformed. Even my husband can't believe the difference in my hair. No frizz and super soft with body and shine. I have been using it for 2 months now and my hair looks and IS so healthy once again. I didn't think it was possible. A close second to this product is the Shu Uemura Essence Absolue oil-in-crème (camellia oil.)May 13, 2013Mary M. / Austin, TxHAIR TYPELight Brown / Color Treated Hair / Thick or Coarse Hair

Wow!!!I LOVE this stuff! I received a free sample of this when I received my Theorie curling iron set (be sure to read my review on that too!). Sending that sample was a smart move on Folica's part, because after using that little sample for about a month now, I am actually ordering the full size. A little goes a looooong way, so make sure to not pour this stuff into your hands. If you have really dry hair like me, and mine is very long, you will end up using no more than about 3-4 drops. This adds such shine to my hair, and oh does it have a lovely scent! It doesn't have that feeling that a lot of oils have where they just way your hair down and do nothing to improve it. This is a thick consistency, and when you distribute it through your hair, your hair is not weighed down, but is shiny and smooth. Unbelievable!!!! I highly recommend this product, and hope that Folica will send me more samples of products to try.
Hey Folica, why not do a sample program where your loyal customers get to try new things? ;)Feb 11, 2013Miss Ophelia Rose / Chapel Hill, NCHAIR TYPEAuburn / Normal Hair / Curly Hair / Color Treated Hair

Perfect Sealant!I bought One N Only Argan oil because of all the hype. I figured all the people who raved about it couldn't be wrong. They were. It's a great heat protectant, but thats it. I got a sample of the Amika with my flatiron and I forgot about it. I didn't expect much when I finally tried it. The smell is really strong and perfumey but it goes away when you put it on your hair. I used it to seal my hair after putting my moisturizer on and then wrapped my hair. My hair felt soft when I took my wrap down and not super dry like with the OneNOnly. I had been slacking on sealing my hair because I didn't want to weigh it down with oil. This is exactly what I've been looking for.Jan 5, 2013Amja J. / Bay Area, CA

Love The Smell!I received a small bottle of this product as a free sample in a past Folica purchase and have used it several (10 or more) times so far. The scent to me is its best selling point. It does seem to soften my hair a little, slightly more than the argan oil I was trying out before that. Yes, I realize this product's #1 ingredient is dimethicone, plus it contains argan oil, which is why I think it softens more than the argan oil alone. Maybe certain silicones are worth it. All I know is I like this product so far and intend to continue using it (will probably return to my pure argan oil after this, just to use up the bottle, $34 for Amika looking a bit steep to me). If I could get another trial size bottle, that would be cool, but I doubt I'd pay that much for this, even though it does smell so nice.Oct 4, 2012Am / Midwest, USAHAIR TYPEDark Brown / Dry Hair / Curly Hair / Fine or Thin Hair

Amika Obliphica Oil TreatmentI am in love with this product. I started using this product in February and just ran out a few weeks ago. This is a very very good heat protector. You can't go wrong with Amika. I have the flat iron, the shampoo/conditioner & the hydration creme. Amika is a product line I use when I straighten my natural 4a hair with the flat iron. Amika products leave my strands protected, moisturized and shiny.Aug 23, 2012Helen G. / Louisville, KYHAIR TYPECurly Hair / Color Treated Hair

After A Year, Still Loving It!If I still love this after a year of using it, that says a lot, right? I got a sample when I bought my Solia flat iron (also love! so much better than my CHI that broke because of its stupid cord design, and CHI has gone downhill since then anyway, but that's a story for another review). After a year's liberal use every time I shampoo my hair, I've still got half a bottle, so it really feels like a bargain.
Here's what kind of hair I have: the individual strands are very fine and thin, but I have a hell of a lot of them. And it's got a bit of natural curl to it. The combination of thin, curly hair with deep south humidity has meant that for most of my life I've had frizzy uncontrollable hair. The best I could hope to do was the blow dry it into the general shape that I wanted. But often within half an hour of drying my hair, even without going outside, it would start to go crazy! So much so that when I lived in the South and was skinny enough to pull it off, I just kept it at a couple of inches long. I let my hair grow out when I lived in the midwest's just-right most days humidity. Somewhere along the way I also discovered flat irons, and now that I've come back to the south, having a professional hair dryer, flat iron, and this hair oil make my hair manageable enough most days that I don't whack it off, which I'd previously thought was impossible.
I don't really use a lot of products because I like my hair to have a natural feel. I'm fidgety, and I like to touch my hair, which I know is not really a great habit. So I like products that make it so I can run my fingers through my hair, which is I guess to say I like products that are relatively light.
Only rarely have I accidentally applied too much. My hair goes past my shoulders, so I use more than a couple of drops. I use a few dashes of the product, coat my palms, and starting with the back and the middle of the hair work my way down, so the bulk of the product isn't at my roots or the front. Then I get the top of my head and my bangs. I like to do it while my hair is still pretty wet. It seems to distribute better. Then I comb it through and put it up in a clip for a while until I'm ready to dry it.
I also use this when I air dry my hair, and it makes a big difference to cut the frizz out of my curls (I am in total denial that I really have curly hair!). But it helps even more to use a little styling gel if I'm going to let my hair dry naturally.
At minimum, that this is the only product I use. Sometimes after styling, when it's especially humid out, I'll smooth on a couple more drops. Definitely drops at this stage! I'll also use little of an Aveda product--a light finishing cream. But when it's really humid and I'm going to have to be outside a lot (plus it's hot as hell in Alabama in the summer) I'll use a clip to put it up, and then have my bangs down. That way at least, at the end of the day, I can take out the clip and the hair that was clipped is usually still not frizzy, unless it's a rainy day or I get sweaty hot head.
Between my CHI ionic dryer (which needs to be replaced. I'm on folica now to buy a replacement), the Solia Flat Iron (which also doesn't catch and snag the hair like the CHI did), and this fantastic hair serum, my hair gets a whole lot less damage. Even now, it's been OMG four or five months since I've had a cut. I just forget and get lazy. Anyway, even now, so long since my last cut, I really don't have that many split ends, not like you'd expect for sure.
I feel like this product protects my hair when I iron it. It definitely makes it smoother, so the iron just glides over the hair. It helps a bit with humidity control too, but not 100%. Or not for frikken ALABAMA's insane humidity. Plus I have to walk a lot from my car and to the various classrooms I teach in across campus, so there's no escaping the humidity. But my hair is way more manageable, shiny, and less frizzy than without the product. Even in Alabama, I can often get two or three days out of one shampoo and style, even in the summer, if I stay out of the rain and don't go for a run. There's just no way I can not shampoo my hair after a run. It would be gross.
Oh, my hair is so much better now than before I discovered professional styling tools and products! I wish I'd had access to this kind of stuff when I was in middle or high school a million and a half years ago.
This stuff does what it claims to, smells great, and is a bargain considering how little you need to use and how long it lasts. I think I'm going to get two years out of my bottle, and I use the crap out of this stuff!

Good, But Not The Best.This product is good, but not the best. The glass bottle makes it difficult to pour b/c you can't squeeze the bottle and it's hard to get any out. I actually hate the bottle! It's not greasy (used sparingly) like other reviews I have read and it does seem to smooth down and control frizz but it still does not compare to Farouk BioSilk- Silk Therapy... I love that product!Dec 7, 2011Lisa R. / United StatesHAIR TYPEMedium Brown / Curly Hair / Fine or Thin Hair

In LoveI received this product as a sample and of course, gave it a try. I have colored, long wavy/curly hair that I regularly blow out and straighten. I am always looking for product to make it look healthy and shiny. It definitely delivered and I was able to get several tests out of the one sample. This is the first time I used an oil in my hair and was a little shy about it maybe making my hair look greasy but it definitely did not. I loved it so much I ordered the product.Sep 7, 2011Lauren P. / AtlantaHAIR TYPEAuburn / Curly Hair / Color Treated Hair / Thick or Coarse Hair

Very Lightweight!I just tried a sample of Amika that came with my last order and I love it! It's very light weight, doesn't weigh down my hair, and keeps it beautifully curly when I want curls! The scent is not offensive at all, matter of fact I thought to myself, "wow, what a nice scent" when I opened the pouch. And you don't need much. Nice sample, thanks!Jun 26, 2011Tove R.HAIR TYPEDark Brown / Curly Hair

When deploying a product with Setup Factory, sometimes you wish to add the installation path to the PATH environment variable. Although you can do that pretty easily by adding the new information to the registry, these changes do not take effect until the user logs into his Windows account again. This utility attempts to overcome this limitation.
Here is a short sample how you can use this utility, normally executed during your On Post Install event:
envKey = "System\\CurrentControlSet\\Control\\Session Manager\\Environment"; path = Registry.GetValue(HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE, envKey, "Path", false); if (String.Find(path, SessionVar.Expand("%AppFolder%"), 1, false) == -1) then -- %AppFolder% not found in the current path, so add it now path = path .. ";" .. SessionVar.Expand("%AppFolder%"); -- update registry Registry.SetValue(HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE, envKey, "Path", path, REG_EXPAND_SZ) SetupData.WriteToLogFile("Info\tNew Path=" .. path .. "\r\n", true); -- refresh the environment (execute primer file) File.Run(SessionVar.Expand("%TempLaunchFolder%\\RefreshEnvironment.exe"), "", "", SW_MINIMIZE, true); error = Application.GetLastError(); if (error ~= 0) then SetupData.WriteToLogFile("Error\tCould not execute utility!\r\n", true); end end
You would typically add the utility to the Primer Files of your project, so it would be deleted automatically when the installer finished.

The Ospreys cruised to a comprehensive 32-3 Pro12 victory over Scarlets at the Liberty Stadium on Wednesday.
The Ospreys cruised to a comprehensive 32-3 Pro12 victory over Scarlets at the Liberty Stadium on Wednesday.
In a first half completely dominated by the hosts, they went into the break 19-3 ahead thanks to a penalty try and the excellent kicking of half-backs Dan Biggar and Kahn Fotuali'i.
Aled Thomas' penalty in the opening period was as good as it got for Simon Easterby's men as tries from James King and Fotuali'i completed the win.
Although the visitors played with ambition from the off, it was the home side that were the more incisive.
With Ryan Jones impressive at flanker and Biggar and Fotuali'i controlling proceedings behind the scrum, the Swansea-based outfit dominated the opening exchanges.
Their pivot opened the scoring before his half-back partner added a drop-goal to move them into a 6-0 lead after 11 minutes.
The Ospreys' ascendancy in the set-piece was also a decisive factor in the team's supremacy and a powerful drive from the pack saw referee Nigel Owens going under the posts to award a penalty try.
Already under severe pressure, George Earle further compounded the Scarlets' problems when he was sin-binned for not retreating 10 metres. Thomas reduced the arrears, but Biggar kicked successive three-pointers to extend their advantage to 16 points at the interval.
Despite the visitors having a brief spell of pressure at the start of the second period, Steve Tandy's men continued to dominate.
They added to the score when prop Ryan Bevington set up King with a superb pass before their fly-half converted another penalty opportunity.
Fotuali'i then touched down after the Scarlets' Tavis Knoyle had been yellow carded for another cynical infringement.
Remarkably, the last 10 minutes saw Rob McCusker and Gareth Owen sent off, and Thomas sin-binned for the away side, but the Ospreys couldn't find the bonus-point.

Great boots!
"These boots are so comfortable, I wore them all day long the first time out of the box and my feet were as happy when I took them off as when I first put them on."

"These are the most comfortable boot I've ever bought! They are the boot you can wear with any outfit. I wear them alot with skinny jeans and they look great! Also they go perfectly with short dresses and skirts. The side zipper goes all the way down and makes it very easy to put on or take off. I also really like these boots because there is plenty of calf room."
