Skip to comments.Delaware Senate contest will hinge on turnout
Posted on 09/12/2010 8:47:19 PM PDT by Qbert
WILMINGTON, Del. -- For supporters of Rep. Mike Castle (R-Del.), all eyes will be on Delaware's New Castle County Tuesday where the level of turnout in the state's contested GOP Senate primary could make or break the longtime congressman.
New Castle County houses the urban population centers of Delaware. It contains Newark and Wilmington, the state's largest city.
The Castle campaign is hoping for solid turnout Tuesday in and around Wilmington to help the centrist congressman offset more conservative primary-goers in the southern part of the state who may be backing Tea Party favorite Christine O'Donnell.
O'Donnell is banking on support from an energized conservative base to help her to an upset Tuesday.
The best estimates of observers in the state put turnout in Tuesday's closed Republican primary around 40,000 voters. For Tea Party-backed Christine O'Donnell, the lower the turnout, the better on Tuesday.
At least 70 Castle volunteers were campaigning door-to-door Sunday, many aimed at drumming up turnout among Castle-friendly Republicans in the northern part of the state.
Near Wilmington, it's not tough to see that the area is Castle's base. Castle for Senate billboards and signs are numerous in Wilmington and just outside of the downtown area, while O'Donnell signs are hard to come by.
At least one small O'Donnell for Senate sign was spotted alongside Route 202, close to downtown Wilmington. It stood in the shadow of a much larger Castle sign and a bright red campaign sign for Glen Urquhart, the conservative challenger running in the primary for Delaware's at-large House seat.
O'Donnell is banking on turnout from the state's two counties just to the South of New Castle--Kent and Sussex counties.
The Tea Party Express has a phone bank set up in-state to make GOTV calls on O'Donnell's behalf and the group is coordinating an effort with supporters from out of state to phone Delaware voters ahead of Tuesday.
O'Donnell is ahead in the polls by 3.
Let us pray for an early blizzard in Delaware on Tuesday. The Conservatives will get to the polls, even if they have to crawl over glass.
Pray it happens in the Primary, because it would certainly happen in the General, and then we keep a D in the Senate. Read the article and ask yourself, when are Conservatives going to stop supporting every scammer and nut job who attends a few Tea Parties and then proclaims themselves a Conservative? Read the article.... AND DO SOME CRITICAL THINKING. She is a nut job and a scammer.
She also just rec'd Sarah Palin's endorsement.
Forecast Clear 83 degrees
We just need to work a bit harder y'all!
and you would rather see someone who will lord over us with their support for a liberal/socialistic agenda?
Let me tell you sir, with all due respect! I would encourage you to do some 'due diligence' yourself, and see that Castle cant argue the 'issues' only the 'personal'. A low dirt-bagger ploy. That, in my opinion, is lower than a 'nut job' and a 'scammer'.
I'd be happy to offer my rebuttal- but what's the point when I would just be responding to a cut n' paste job?...
I've read a few things about her and I think your analysis, i.e. "She is a nut job and a scammer", is quite astute. The more we learn about her, the weirder she seems. Frankly, I can't think of anyone, regardless of party, I would less rather have in office than a paranoiac who lies about her education, has made a mess of her personal finances, and sues her boss when she imagines some injustice.
"when are Conservatives going to stop supporting every scammer and nut job who attends a few Tea Parties and then proclaims themselves a Conservative?"
Great point. The downside of the TPM is that many previously failed political wannabes and cranks have simply hopped on the bandwagon hoping that this will be their ticket to the bigs. B/c the TP is really more of a reaction to 0bama's spending and Big Gov't than an actual movement or party, people can claim to be a "Tea Party Activist" despite the fact that there was nothing to be 'active' in up until about a year ago. Waiving a Gadsden flag at TP rally one or two times doesn't make someone Sam Addams.
How quaint that they call castle a centrist.
Did the tea party back her?So you are calling them crazy as well?
"when are Conservatives going to stop supporting every scammer and nut job who attends a few Tea Parties and then proclaims themselves a Conservative?
—Great point. The downside of the TPM is that many previously failed political wannabes and cranks have simply hopped on the bandwagon hoping that this will be their ticket to the bigs..."
You call this a 'great point', yet nothing that you have written proves that O'Donnell is not a Conservative. You assume that because you have questions about her personality that her political views are not solid... Well, if you have something of substance relating to the issues, I'm all ears.
And who are all these "scammers and nut jobs" who are supported after they "attend a few Tea Parties" and "proclaim themselves to be Conservative"? Is it...oh, wild guess...Sharron Angle? Hhmm, her voting record in NV seemed pretty darned Conservative to me. Or maybe that so-called 'extremist' Yale law grad Joe Miller? I want names...
"Did the tea party back her?So you are calling them crazy as well?"
That's how I interpreted it, too.
TEA is not crazy, just woefully inadequate in the research of her before they endorsed her.
If they knew it and endorsed, then they are either stupid or crazy.
I love her, but this was a serious fubar on her sfatt's part.
>>> and you would rather see someone who will lord over us with their support for a liberal/socialistic agenda?
And nominating an unelectable conservative over a moderate Republican, thereby ensuring the election of a blue state liberal democrat to the US Senate and quite possibly killing a Republican take-over of the Senate will certainly impede "a liberal/socialistic agenda".
Why didn't I see this before.
Sarah's people should have done much better due diligence.
I love Palin, but this and the Levi Johnson comeback were serious fubars on her research staff's part.
It tells me that the rinos are getting very worried that their sqwishy just may lose.I hate it for them.I really do./s
She would still be better than Castle.
"Why didnt I see this before."
Because you didn't think it through...
Two options, assuming Republicans take the House:
1) Republicans win Senate: House and Senate pass conservative-leaning legislation...POTUS vetoes everything. Gridlock...(POTUS yaps away at all Republicans who aren't 'bipartisan' like Mike Castle)
2) Republicans fail to gain control of Senate: House passes conservative-leaning legislation; divided Senate rejects. Gridlock...POTUS twiddles his thumbs waiting for something to sign.
Thus, at best Mike Castle is irrelevant here, and at worst he would be used as a (willing?) pawn by the administration to criticize all those 'obstructionist' Republicans. And do you doubt me on this latter claim?? Well, he hasn't exactly been cordial to his Conservative challenger now, has he...?
I want someone to vote right.
Castle will vote wrong.
Christine will vote right.
Since a Senators job is to vote, and maybe a handful of other things, I really don't care about whether she lied about her education. If she starts to vote wrong, like Castle does, replace her with someone who will vote right.
Castle's job is to vote the way we want him to.
He does a very bad job at that. The other stuff doesn't
matter at all. He votes wrong. He's not apologizing for it. He's not promising to change. He's just promising to keep on voting wrong.
Christine gets past this, beats Castle, beats Coons, she is set up with a pretty sweet resume. A lot of the money issues are wrapped up in her campaign, the campaign of 2008. She'll be able to have "beat the establishment" on her resume, like Sarah does. And we're riled up against the establishment now.
I'm expecting a Christine win, it looks like the voters are quickly learning just how liberal Castle is. up sat 53 to sun 57, so you can have some idea of the trend. A fast 2 week sprint at the end which Christine seems to be winning.
Since you are from FL, I will presume that you know little of Mike Castle. He is a RINO, in the mold of Graham, McCain, Chaffee and Voinovich, only quieter. Does that R really mean that much?
Tell me, how long would you put up with a spouse that was faithful 52% of the time?
Would you have gone into combat armed with a weapon that you could rely on 52% of the time?
How long would you keep a dog if it didn't bite you 52% of the time?
These current times are much different than past elections. we are in a fight right now that is much larger than a potential 1 seat "take over" of a Senate. Many of us (those that are out there in the trenches making a "take over" even a possibility), see this fight as one of "BELIEFS" over Party!
The people leading the charge throughout the country, enabling Republican gains and potential control, are NOT THE GOP IN WASHINGTON and NOT the supporters of RINOs like Castle!
"And who are all these scammers and nut jobs who are supported after they attend a few Tea Parties and proclaim themselves to be Conservative? "
Dan Maes for one. Jury is still out on O'Donnell and Angle.
The job of a Senator is to represent their constituents as effectively as possible. Are you a Delawarean? Apparently the folks from there think Castle has done more than a fair job, otherwise he wouldn't have kept been getting elected (to just about every significant state job and to the US Congress). The folks from Delaware seem to be pretty liberal, so their representatives reflect that, regardless of party. Despite all the heat and noise that comes out of the Tea Party, I'd be shocked to see her win the primary, and if she does, she will NEVER win in the general.
"And who are all these scammers and nut jobs who are supported after they attend a few Tea Parties and proclaim themselves to be Conservative?
—Dan Maes for one. Jury is still out on ODonnell and Angle."
Again, to what specifically are you referring to prove your claim that candidates are proclaiming 'themselves to be conservatives' after attending a few Tea Party rallies...when they are really not??
You say the 'jury is still out' on Angle, for example. Based upon what? Have you analyzed her voting record- or is this just some kind of generalized notion that you have of her because the MSM tells you that she's 'kooky'? In the Nevada State Legislature, she was consistently the *only* vote against unnecessary tax increases, and she voted against more than 100 attempts to increase taxes and fees. She introduced tort reform legislation, health care reform based upon conservative principle, etc., etc... Not to mention the fact that she has received numerous endorsements from tons of leading conservative-leaning groups and individuals- are they gullible chumps, too??
I have no problem analyzing a candidate's record and statements in assessing where they really are on the political spectrum- but generalized perceptions won't do...
Castle sits between Snowe and Collins on the ACU scale.

By M. Scott Morris/NEMS Daily Journal
The great confluence of tubes, electrodes and Kardashians known as the Internet has offered up a wonderful gift.
It probably won't change any lives, but it's pretty cool. I think so, at least.
I was surfing on my computer about a week ago and discovered a link to a "Raiders of the Lost Ark" story conference.
From Jan. 23-27, 1978, George Lucas, Steven Spielberg and Lawrence Kasdan gathered for tape-recorded sessions, where they dreamed up one of the most enjoyable films of all time.
The transcript shows these storytelling masters in action, as they create a character movie fans have come to know and love over the years. Their initial ideas about Indiana Jones are close, but he's not exactly the guy Harrison Ford portrays on the big screen.
"He has a tendency to get into situations where there are taboos, voodoos, things, especially when you start dealing with pyramids you get into all that," Lucas says. "So he sort of studies it because he's gotten mixed up with it. A study of ancient religions and voodoo and all that kind of stuff. He's a guy who sort of checks out ghosts and psychic phenomenon in connection with the kind of things he does. He's a sort of archeological exorcist."
Indy gets his iconic bullwhip early in the process.
"I like that," Spielberg says. "The doctor with the bullwhip."
Lucas sees practical applications for the bullwhip, like fighting and swinging over chasms. Spielberg sees comic potential: "You can knock somebody's belt off and the guy's pants fall down."
For a time, Lucas suggests Indy's love interest should be "a Marlene Dietrich tavern singer spy. A German lady singer. She's really a double agent. She knows what the Nazis are doing, and where they are. He gets mixed up with her. She wants him to make her his partner. They sort of have an affair right away."
The character evolves several pages later, and Marion (Karen Allen) starts to emerge.
"Let's say her father is there. Her father may have been his mentor," Kasdan says. "He has been working on some unrelated project. But it was her father who discovered the first fragment of the map. She has it. Her father dies. That's why he's going to Nepal, to get it from her. That's why they know each other. That's why she's reluctant to part with it. Does any of this sound possible?"
"Sounds possible," Lucas says.
From the beginning, these geniuses knew they weren't making high art. They were making fun.
"What we're just doing here, really, is designing a ride at Disneyland," Spielberg says.
The Internet came through for me this time. If you want to learn more about Indy's origins, search for "Raiders Story Conference." It's truly amazing how many things Lucas, Spielberg and Kasdan get wrong on their way to getting things right. There's probably a lesson in there somewhere.

Otherwise known as Weichi (or something like that) in Chnese, Baduk in Korean, and Igo in Japan, Go is the world's oldest game still played in it's original form today. Originating in China around 3,000-4,000 years ago, Go is played on a 19x19 board with black and white stones, or for beginners and intermediate players, on 13x13 and 9x9 boards. It's rules are simple, but it has great variation, with 10^200 possible moves.
I've just started playing Go, so I'm not to well versed with actually playing the game, but I would like to know. Does anyone else on Mangashare play Go? Or is interested in learning how to play?
This thread will be for gathering all people interested in Go on the forum (I hope ^.^).

History in the Paint Public Art Tour
In the summer of 2013, a collective of artists, called the Walldogs, came to Kewanee, IL to paint 15 historic murals depicting the long history and heritage of the city. These paintings can be found on many downtown facades, as well as at the Amtrak Station that brings new people to the area, every day. About this mural: Kewanee was founded in May of 1854, when the Military Tract Railroad was routed to the north of Wethersfield. The town founders were from Wethersfield Township to the south, Sylvester Blish, Ralph Tenney, Henry Little and Sullivan Howard, plus Nelson Lay from Wisconsin. Colonel Berrian, civil engineer who supervised the laying of the track through this area, was asked to choose a name and he decided on "Kewanee," a Winnebago Indian word for "prairie chicken." In 1921, Wethersfield's 2,000 people asked to be annexed to Kewanee with its 16,000. That 18,000 would turn out to be Kewanee's peak population.

IntroductionRome, Ital. Roma, city (1991 pop. 2,775,250), capital of Italy and see of the pope, whose residence, Vatican City, is a sovereign state within the city of Rome. Rome is also the capital of Latium, a region of central Italy, and of Rome prov. It lies on both banks of the Tiber and its affluent, the Aniene, in the Campagna di Roma, between the Apennine Mts. and the Tyrrhenian Sea. Called the Eternal City, it is one of the world's richest cities in history and art and one of its great cultural, religious, and intellectual centers.
The rise of Rome from an insignificant pastoral settlement to perhaps the world's most successful empire—supreme as a lawgiver and organizer, holding sway over virtually all the then-known world W of Persia, on which it left a permanent imprint of its material and cultural achievements—is one of the great epics of history. Whatever its fortunes throughout history, Rome has remained the symbol of European civilization. Because of the complexity of the subject matter, the following article is divided into several sections, and additional information will be found in the articles to which there are cross references.

Backhoe Loaders are heavy equipment vehicles that consists of a tractor like unit fitted with a shovel/bucket on the front and a small backhoe on the back. Due to its relatively small size and versatility, backhoe loaders are very common in urban engineering and small construction projects.
available dig depths
There are not great differences in size from one backhoe to the next. Of all heavy machinery, backhoes vary the least in size from one model to the next. While there are front-end loaders and excavators -- even skidsteers -- that are monstrous in relation to other machines in the same class, there are not incredibly large backhoes nor mini-backhoes.
Renting a backhoe is a good option if a person has a variety of jobs on a site to accomplish, but a limited number of machines. An operator can dig a trench for pipe (sewer, water or gas), for utilities or an operator can dig trench for a drainage system or irrigation. An operator can also use the bucket on the back to dig a foundation or a basement. The bucket on the front end can quickly scoop up spoils and put them in a pile or load them in the back of a dump truck or end or side dump tandem. The front bucket is also ideal for flattening or forming an area within a jobsite. A backhoe can do anything a loader or excavator can do, but on a smaller scale.

Star Wars Galaxies, LucasArts' and Sony Online Entertainment's long-running multiplayer game, is shutting down for good, along with the spin-off trading card game. The plug will be pulled, and a world will cease to exist, on December 15, 2011. Rest in Peace, Galaxies. In...
Mark Hamill Was Never Asked To Voice A Star Wars Video Game
You'd think it'd be natural for LucasArts to ask Mark Hamill, aka Luke Skywalker, to be part of one of the many Star Wars video games that have been produced over the years. PC Zone recently spoke with the former member of the Force, however, and said it's never happened. Post-Star Wars, Hamill has made a name for himself as a prominent voice...

'Star Wars: Galaxies' To Co-exist With 'The Old Republic'?
Are there enough Star Wars fans to support two MMOs based on the Star Wars universe? According to LucasArts, yes, there are. The company doesn't see a reason to shut down servers for sci-fi MMO Star Wars: Galaxies, even after EA and Bioware's Star Wars: The Old Republic launches. LucasArts executive Tom Nichols said, "We see no reason why...

I'm going to say it and hate myself later, but AnnE looks pretty good here.
Goop looks like death–and she's has eye work done don't you think?
My girl crush is Anna Kendrick–luvs herReplyCancel
Goop's hair makes her face look washed out.ReplyCancel
I think they all look great Ill even give a pass to Krugers dress which is kinda loud to my eyes.ReplyCancel
Goopy is starting to morph into that trainer of hers. Same face!ReplyCancel
Reese looks great! Has she had the bewbs out before? I think not. Drew Barrymore's dress looks like an optical illusion. Not a good one, the kind they hang on the wall in Doctor's officesReplyCancel
From one self-tanner user to another, Cheistina looks pretty good here.ReplyCancel
Well certainly @Sugar. My girl did!ReplyCancel
Gwen is starting to fall under kimk's catagory of , does she even have a mirror? And ladies, showing so much boob? Dont get it, not so flattering. I love anne h, she looks cool. Go ahead, villify me!! Lol. Anna kendrick!! Go right home!! They found the iron!!!!ReplyCancel
Wow! Look at all these gorgeous gals! Honestly, everyone looks beauteous! Granted, Gwyneth should have gone with bolder makeup, but other than that, everyone looks great.ReplyCancel
Lots of hotties in here. I'll put the bunch of them in order.
Selena – I want my own snorting in panties vid.
Roberts – she crazy, prolly great lay
X-Tina – see Roberts
Kruger – alleged freak
Kendrick – cute bim
Preggo Drew – Cute preggo, but there is too much young talent to put her higher.
Spoon – would treat her as she treats underlings, that is what she needs
Goop – wouldn't be degrading like with Spoon, just filthy, like sweat and juices everywhere, sheets would be a mess
AnnE – she just gives the impression that the only way you would get anything but a dead fish lay is to dangle a sought after role or hook jumper cables to her tits.
*Edited to fix error.*ReplyCancel
Hey, @Count, didn't realize it 'til just now, but I've missed your lists! 🙂ReplyCancel
Christina slimmed down with Adderall. And I think she must have mystic tanned the day of the event because sometimes that shit can overtan your feet if you don't exfoliate properly.
I waited on Christina about a year ago and she was a bloated drunk mess. She drank two bottles of wine and was BIG. So yeah all that weight loss is for sure not natural.ReplyCancel
Some others have said that too, Reese, so if I find some motivation, I do it with some type of twist.ReplyCancel
Emma looks like she needs a good meal, a cup of cocoa, and a relaxing night with a movie and a bowl of jiffy pop.ReplyCancel
Here there be some ugly clothes.ReplyCancel
XTina looks like she's wearing "suntan" colored knee highs, the kind we used to buy in a three-pack in those L'eggs eggs. I think Drew is a real, honest to goodness classic beauty, but my God, she's full on Meemaw maternity fashion, isn't she? Actually, she needs to get some L'eggs knee highs, too, and then she'd complete her look!ReplyCancel
My god, gwenneth looks like Mia Farrow in that shot..ReplyCancel
Reese, put them away. Stop it. You're too old for this sort of behaviour.
Selena really annoys me – I don't know if it's because of her baby face or just general fakeness, but I don't like her.
Gwyneth looks awful! Far out – you'd think that someone who was the face of one of Estee Lauder's campaigns way back when would at least have a lipstick or two in reserves.
I think Drew looks lovely. Ditto re AnnE … I'm not normally a fan of AnnE but her hair is looking softer and I'm sure she's carrying more weight in her face, making it appear softer. Much better.
Oh look, a line-up of three women I can't stand – Roberts, Kendrick and Kruger. YUCK!!!
Christina looks like a drag queen. Less is more!ReplyCancel
Goop face looks funny, indeed: the zone between her eyes and her mouth are suspiciously bloated at the same place.
Symetrical bee stings or very recent post-filler injection swelling?
I ll go for the fillers (and maybe a bit of resurfacing), between the mouth and the eyelid it s all too smooth and plane …

I don't know about you guys, but I woke up in the mood to look at some adorable animals…so that was my main goal in coming in to work today.
Unfortunately it's not 'National Puppy Day' or 'National Take A Picture of a Bunny in a Basket Day', (these are all First World Problems — I know), so I had to go off-roading a little bit to try to find a theme for a cute animal gallery.
What I discovered: today is 'National Prime Rib Day' and also 'Tell A Story Day'. (Yes, seriously.) So this is me telling you the story of how I decided not to make a gallery of cute cows that may or may not get eaten later in life, and decided to make a gallery of adorable baby sea lions for absolutely no reason.
So, I present to you…today's cutegreggator post: Baby Sea Lions! If you don't like it, pull your life together.

Suit maintains Boeing knew or should have known of alleged problems with jet. Boeing declined to comment.
A group of passengers who were aboard an Asiana Airlines flight that crash-landed last summer at a San Francisco airport filed a personal injury lawsuit against aircraft manufacturer Boeing, according to media accounts.
Roughly 100 plaintiffs, many of them South Korean or Chinese nationals, say that Boeing knew or should have known that its 777 passenger jet had inadequate auto-throttle control and low-airspeed warnings systems, says the suit filed in Cook County Circuit Court by the Chicago-based firm Ribbeck Law Chartered, the Chicago Tribune reported.
"We are asking for damages to be paid to the passengers and asking the court to hold Boeing partially liable," Monica Kelly, an attorney for Ribbeck Law, told CNN on Saturday.
The lawsuit also contends that Boeing knew or should have known the airline's pilots were not properly trained in basic landing and safety management protocols, and that the pilots of Asiana Airlines Flight 214 were not qualified to fly on July 6, 2013, according to the Tribune.
Asiana Airlines Flight 214 crashed on the runway at San Francisco International Airport on July 6. Three passengers were killed and more than 180 injured; 307 people were aboard the plane when it crashed.
A Boeing spokesman declined to comment on the lawsuit.
Other lawsuits have already been filed in the crash.

Glasgow ran in four tries against Ulster on Friday to triumph 20-14 at Scotstoun Stadium, with Niko Matawalu grabbing the crucial score.
Glasgow ran in four tries against Ulster on Friday to triumph 20-14 at Scotstoun Stadium, with Niko Matawalu grabbing the crucial score.
In a game played in quite miserable conditions, Ulster made the better start and drove convincingly into the Glasgow defensive line. The early pressure earned its reward, and the away side earned a penalty attempt on three minutes.
Pienaar was uncharacteristically inaccurate with the resultant kick. However the league leaders were establishing an impressive early tempo, and Pienaar made amends by opening the scoring on five minutes following an almighty shove by temporary captain John Afoa.
But the Glasgow response was resolute. The Scottish outfit have established an impressive momentum in the Pro 12 this season and slowly but surely accumulated a succession of phases.
The hosts deservedly managed to get themselves on the scoreboard on 14 minutes, when lock Swinson crashed over for a try in the corner. Glasgow were starting to find a decent rhythm, testing the fringe defence of the league leaders.
It was Ulster who accrued the next scoring opportunity on 17 minutes, however, when Pienaar put the Irish side ahead at 5-6. Glasgow remained the more dominant and physical, particularly at the breakdown.
Ulster's predicament was compounded by a series of inexcusable errors. Seymour restored Glasgow's advantage on 27 minutes, following a horrendous calamity at the base of the Ulster scrum.
Glasgow fly-half Peter Horne missed the conversion, and it was to be a truly forgettable night for the kicker. As well as dominating the physical exchanges Glasgow were looking the more creative behind the scrum; with scrum half Malawahu posing all sorts of problems for the Ulster defence.
Glasgow entered the interval in the ascendancy, having been emboldened by their dominance of the inexperienced Ulster side. If the first half was poor, Ulster started the second period in the worst circumstances imaginable.
Paddy Wallace, who seemed shaken following a bone crunching challenge in the first half, saw his clearance kick charged down and a grateful Murcnhie cantered over for another try.
The vastly experienced Wallace will have been very disappointed with his error. The league leaders were given a reprieve, however, when Horne again missed his conversion. Ulster were now very much playing catch up, and struggled to inject any momentum into their game.
Pienaar did narrow the gap on 48 minutes, to make it 15-9 to the Warriors. But Glasgow remained in the ascendancy, lording it over the Irishmen at the breakdown. The only glimmer of hope came from Ulster's young guns, with their experienced campaigners struggling to assert themselves. It is extremely rare to see Pienaar outplayed by his opposite number.
Ulster did increase their intensity in the final quarter and were offered a lifeline when Stuart Olding scored on 67 minutes. Ulster were now only one point in arrears, and seemed on the verge of securing a win they scarcely deserved. But a resilient Glasgow had other ideas.
The scintillating Matawalu finished off a deserved victory on 72 minutes, when he seized upon an error in Ulster's defensive alignment to seal the bonus point.
Replays revealed that Nigel Owens had missed a forward pass. Horne was again remiss with his conversion. But it scarcely mattered. Glasgow hung on to close out a very impressive victory, secured on extremely solid foundations. Ulster will hope that a season that showed so much early promise is not imploding amid a litany of injuries and lapses in form.
The scorers:
Tries: Swinson, Seymour, Murchie, Matawalu
Try: Olding
Pens: Pienaar 3
The teams:
Glasgow: 15 Peter Murchie, 14 Tommy Seymour, 13 Mark Bennett, 12 Alex Dunbar, 11 DTH van der Merwe, 10 Peter Horne, 9 Niko Matawalu, 8 Ryan Wilson (capt), 7 John Barclay, 6 Josh Strauss, 5 Tom Ryder, 4 Tim Swinson, 3 Ed Kalman, 2 Pat MacArthur, 1 Ofa Fainga'anuku.
Replacements: 16 Fraser Brown, 17 Luke Pettie, 18 Garry Mountford, 19 Nick Campbell, 20 James Eddie, 21 Sean Kennedy, 22 Scott Wight, 23 Graeme Morrison.
Ulster: 15 Ricky Andrew, 14 Michael Allen, 13 Andrew Trimble, 12 Stuart Olding, 11 Neil Walsh, 10 Paddy Wallace, 9 Ruan Pienaar, 8 Robbie Diack, 7 Ali Birch, 6 Conor Joyce, 5 Dan Tuohy, 4 Neil McComb, 3 John Afoa (capt), 2 Nigel Brady, 1 Callum Black.
Replacements: 16 Rob Herring, 17 Ricky Lutton, 18 Andrew Warwick, 19 Alan O'Connor, 20 Mike McComish, 21 Paul Marshall, 22 Darren Cave, 23 Chris Cochrane.

Despite becoming a huge fashion mogul, this former A list performer(singer)/reality star was not invited to the Mat Gala this year because Anna Wintour thinks the fashion brand and the normal style of our A lister is beneath the Gala. I disagree.
Jessica SimpsonReplyCancel
Kanye of course!!ReplyCancel
Simpson.. We know she loves Kayne. Put him on the cover….ReplyCancel
Did Posh get an invite? Anna hates her.ReplyCancel
Is the Mat Gala the Met's basic bitch cousin?ReplyCancel
And Jessica lost all that weight too.ReplyCancel
K's line at sears is right next to the batteriesReplyCancel
why does Anna W. hate Posh? she can for more days living on air? seriously? how come the hate?ReplyCancel
There's no way Anna Wintour would turn away the opportunity to sit next to David Beckham.
I'll go with Simpson. Her Daisy Duke appeal isn't on Anna's radar.ReplyCancel
@scarletscout, she doesn't. Posh has been on the cover of Vogue.
This fake open letter might be the culprit behind that rumourReplyCancel
If Wintour is allowing Kardashians to attend, then the bar has been lowered enough to invite any street person. I hear those Met Balls are very long and boring so whoever it is being left out isn't missing much.ReplyCancel
@Evie. She had one when they first moved to LA. I think on E!ReplyCancel
Until I saw Anna with the KTrash I thought the only person she didn't hate was herself.ReplyCancel
@sus lol. yes its true, jessica's fashion is more figure-friendly, but then again, that is jessica… she is more often the curvy type, and very rarely the skinny, dukes of hazzard body type. this also appeals to many american women.
also, note that typical american diet consists of massive amounts of sugar/hfcs, carbs, gmo corn, factory farmed meat fed by gmo corn, etc… therefore, obesity epidemic. shes just making clothes for the people that don't wanna change.ReplyCancel
I think this is Posh. I don't think Jessica Simpson would care about the Met Ball. But, I am a naive nelly, so, perhaps I'm wrong.
All I know is I can not wait for summer so I can rock my new hottie momma Jessica Simpson bikini. This is my first Jessica Simpson apparel purchase, and I've tried it on 50 times to make sure I don't have buyer's remorse. And I don't. SUS – I don't think I fit your demographic: I am business owner and a size zero. I suppose my love of animal prints, sequins, jewelry and sky high shoes is tacky. Guilty as charged. LOL.
I actually think Jessica Simpson's stuff is market to late teens-early-20-somethings. Isn't it a juniors brand?ReplyCancel
Sus, several obese American housewives post here daily. They'll gang up on you now but don't worry, it just makes them look like a bunch of assholes.ReplyCancel
Probably Jessica Simpson. I don't understand why people are so snobby about her line. I have a few of her handbags and accessories and while not crazily expensive, they are cute and the quality seems to be good.ReplyCancel
Malibu and Missbunny, I've seen far worse on this site. It is not that serious, women, I was jocking. How many times people mock thin women and make the proverbial comment of buying them a sandwitch… not to mention the gross generalizations I've seen here directed at other nationalities, etc. And, by the way, I said "tackymerican", not American.ReplyCancel
Jessica Simpson… But they invite Kim Kardashian??ReplyCancel
I actually really like Jessica Simpson heels. Fit so well and don't ever pinch.ReplyCancel
I have a couple of J Simp purses that I love. She has some cute shoes too. While far from obese, I could definitely stand to lose a few and generalization didn't hurt. I'm a helluva a girl and I'm loads of fun 😉ReplyCancel
The day Anna decided to put Kimmode and Kanye on Vogue, a good bit (if not all) of her credibility, at least IMHO, vaporized. Something tells me J Simp will continue to rake in the cash despite the lack of Anna's endorsement.ReplyCancel
Come on..Whilst most of us here are NOT cat loving obese housewives American's gotten that tag nonetheless. Americans ARE heavier due to the food we eat and our love of fast food. (And I speak for myself as one who could shed a few event though I shun fast food).
English people have a reputation as horrible travelers due to excessive consumption of alcohol on holiday. Is everyone in England a drunk? No it's just the rep.
But for your enlightenment Sus, come visit us and you'll see we're not all fat and we are pretty nice people. We love having visitors.ReplyCancel
@Sherry whoa, whoa. I hate visitors. Sus is your couch 🙂ReplyCancel
Fine. I'll make fried doughnuts for dinner. Do I have to change out my mumu for guests? I'll even tape a ShamWow to a broom and wash my pits.ReplyCancel
It's never mattered to me what Anna Wintour has thought. It now matter's even less after she put Kim and Kanye on the cover of Vogue.ReplyCancel
Hey Sherry, I've been to the USA. But where did I say every american is fat?
How hyper-sensitive people is when obesity is mentioned. If I had to take offence every time someone jokes about skinny women… How many of these women complaining about my message have made sarcastic remarks about models, actresses or common people who happen to be thin… Enough with the moral police. Is not that serious.
Sorry but you are wrong. Every English is a drunkard, believe me.ReplyCancel
Don't sweat it, Sus 😉ReplyCancel
Thanks for cleaning your pits Wiglet. Fried food it is!
Sus..I wasn't arguing with you darlin'. I didn't hear you say everyone was fat. I was merely pointing out that we Americans have that reputation. I certainly wasn't offended since I'm fluffy myself.
LOL that every English person is a drunk. I thought we were saving that for the Irish. (Hugs IJU)
Oh my who else can I offend today? 🙂ReplyCancel
I wore a lot of Jessica Simpson's maternity line during my last pregnancy. Definitely not high fashion but I loved all the pieces I bought. They were comfortable, cute and just trendy enough. I live on the west coast, am not obese and have decent fashion sense.ReplyCancel
@7 your posh photos are from vogue France. She has never been on vogue us. ANNA offered it to David before without posh but he turned it down out of courtesy to Victoria. Anna only likes David.ReplyCancel
This year is being called the basic bitches met ball. The biggest star is Lupita. Most are passing because of kimye.ReplyCancel
Btw Jessica Simpson went in 2006 and looked like trailer trash. That's why Anna is banning her. But she has already been once.ReplyCancel
Every straight man has the hots for Jessica Simpson, chunky or skinny. They want to wine, dine, and make babies with her.
Only trashy rappers want to do Kim in the pooper shooter. Thus her big K-boose. She's a pig.ReplyCancel
@sugar, who would want to be photographed next to Kim, right?! Anna's star is falling now that she's linked to Kimye. Even Goop said NOPE.
Gwyneth Paltrow bowing out of this year's Met Gala after saying last year's event 'sucked'ReplyCancel
Lila, after the loss of subscription sales and overall loss of sales in retaliation to that horrible tacky cover, do you think Anna will finally be forced to retire?ReplyCancel
@Sprink, do you love reading Samuel Becket too? If so, let's prepare for our minds to be blown. We'll meet by a tree and smoke a cigarette (I prefer cigars), drink martini's and watch the hot men go by… 😉ReplyCancel
I looked at the pics from the met, I saw Posh. I did not see ?Jessica Simpson.ReplyCancel
"to me she's tackymerican yokel" "obese American housewives." WOW! Are you aware you are commenting on an American blog, where American women are predominately the makeup of commenters? Calling someone's brand as marketing to tacky, obese, and a "yokel," is super tone deaf and a true cunty move. I have never purchased any Simpson products but I'm guessing the fact that I'm a Southerner, I'm a yokel, as well.ReplyCancel
And, to be clear, I'm not obese, nor am I offended, but I think you probably hurt a lot of feelings, there's many folks who are readers and not commenters. It is true the world as a whole is experiencing an epidemic of obesity, but the US is hardly alone. The top 9 countries include New Zealand, Ireland, The UK, Luxembourg Canada, Mexico, Australia, and Chile, as well as the good old tackymerican fat asses.ReplyCancel

Good Dryer For The PriceThe Good:When I bought this dryer I was looking for an everyday dryer that I could also use when I travel. This dryer has met my expectations. I have had the dryer for a few months now. My hair feels much softer and is healthier. I have owned a bioionic in the past and I think that this dryer leaves my hair softer and more shiny than the bioionic. It also fits very nicely in the suitcase. The cord is long- which makes it nice when you are using a mirror which doesnt have an outlet near by.The Bad:The dryer does blow very hard. It does make styling a little difficult- but I have gotten used to it. Styling your hair with this dryer is also a challenge because the cold shot button is on the handle where you hold the dryer so it is easy to push it on accident. I probably would have purchased a different dryer if I could have tested it out before I bought it- just because of erogonomic reasons and the blow factor. However I would still have chosen this dryer if another dryer didnt make my hair feel as soft and healthy as thin one does.I am rating this dryer better than average just because it makes my hair feel wonderful.Also, dealing with Folica was fantastic. I received my purchase quickly and there were no problems. I will definitely buy from folica again.Jun 23, 2009Jennifer / Dana Point, California

Great InvestmentThis is my first professional hair dryer and I can now understand why it is more $ than the others. My drying time has been cut in half, the dyer itself is light so my arm isnt throbbing every morning, and its pretty compact. I will never go back to those $30-$40 Conair/Revlon dryers...Jun 22, 2009Leej / Boston, MA

The Best!I love this hair dryer! I have frizzy slightly curly hair unless I blow it straight, then use a straightening iron. The process used to take 35 minutes or more. I can now blow it straight in about 10 minutes. Most days I dont even need to use the straightening iron. I have recommended this dryer to my sister and friends.Jun 22, 2009Anonymous / White Plains, NYHAIR TYPECurly Hair

Makes My Job Easier!!I LOVE this hairdryer because it is so efficient and lightweight. its very easy to hold and use through a 9 to 10 hour day of doing clients. It definitely dries the hair faster and more smooth than my other hairdryer. I totally recommend this product to any busy hairstylist or to anyone for at home use!Jun 21, 2009Chelsey Wilkes / Atlanta, GA

A Gift That Keeps On Giving.I bought this hair dryer as a gift for my coworker. A stylist in one of the trade magazines listed it as something he couldnt live without while working. The long cord, lightweight, quiet motor, and size features sold me. Also, the best part is the air flow nozzle snaps on and wont fall off. My friends previous hair dryers would not last her long ( she is pretty rough on them). Im happy to say her TGR 4000i hair dryer is still going strong after two years and mine is about to have a one year anniversary. I think we both cant live without them at work. No complaints here.Jun 21, 2009Kris Kujawinski / East Village, New York City, NY

Sedu Tgr 4000i Is The Best!I have had many hair dryers and flat irons. I got the flat iron and this Sedu TGR 4000i Hair Dryer, and it really works as advertised. It is light, small (not a mini), and my hair feels softer since I have been using it; and it takes me less time than ever before! It has different setting for temperture and it is really effective. With a great black design and a practical seze and weight, I cannot ask for more. I will not buy another tool from any other brand, Sedu products are the best!Jun 21, 2009Ana / San Francisco, CA.

Good DryerI love this blowdryer. Compared to most standard $30 store bought dryers it is way better, but compared to my old speed freak 2000watt dryer it is just noticibly better. Not a huge improvement but better. My old one is on its last leg after 7 years so my new sedu was worth the price. To tell you the speed at which the air blows out, I did a comparison test with my old speed freek and a conair dryer. I hung towels of same exact brand style and weight inside on the shower rod so no outside wind forces could change the outcome. I held all three dryers facing the towels and the sedu blew the towel the farthest with the most force. I then took a few steps back with the sedu while my husband stayed in the same spot with the others and the sedu still blew the towel the farthest. I would recommend this if you are in need of a new dryer or just tired of replacing your old store bought specials.Jun 20, 2009Tired Mom

(June 19) Today we're celebrating . . . JuneteenthThursday, June 19th, 2008
Celebrating the anniversary of the Emancipation Proclamation.
"Juneteenth" comes from the words "June" and "19th", which according to southern folklore, is when the slaves of Texas first learned of their freedom. Though freed in 1863, the slaves did not learn of their freedom until the arrival of the Union soldiers on June 19th, 1865, 2 1/2 years after the proclamation was first issued.

The Mashpee Wampanoag tribe plans to build a 550-million dollar casino complex that's facing federal, and now state, hurdles. Mashpee Wampanoag Tribe Chairman Cedric Cromwell says the current agreement with the state is good for the tribe and for Massachusetts citizens:
"The tribal state compact protects and honors the tribal rights while also protecting the citizens of the commonwealth of massachusetts. so instead of competeing with the commonwealth, let's collaborate. let's create something very important in South Eastern Massachusetts."
Both sides —thought– they had that important deal. But the the federal bureau of Indian affairs rejected it. So the tribe and the state agreed to lower the state's take from the Casino, from 21% down to 17%. At a Legislative hearing, lawmakers demanded assurances that the revised compact would pass federal approval. Governor Patrick's deputy legal counsel, Nick Martinelli, urged lawmakers to ratify the compact and act quickly:
"The commonwealth's interest and the tribe's interest are aligned right now, and that's not necessarily always going to be the case. So we have an agreement we think is good for both sides. The circumstances could change overtime. The tribe could have its land taken into trust, the gaming commission could move forward with a commercial casino, that would change leverage on both sides."
This week, the tribe ramped up it's public campaign by showing off new casino designs to the Taunton City Council. Architectural drawings are one thing…but more important could be the anticipated 25-hundred permanent jobs and $80 million in annual payroll the casino would generate. The tribe thought it has an exclusive path to Southeastern Massachusetts's only casino, but the state Gaming Commission has voted to allow commercial developers to bid too. That's because the tribe faces legal hurdles securing the land in Taunton. Wampanoag chairman Cromwell says the tribe is making great progress..and even without the state approval of the compact, it intends to move forward with a casino in Taunton. If the state doesn't approve the compact, the tribe says it will keep all the revenue it makes.

The pace of small business growth in the United States slowed in May but remains positive, new information released by Paychex Inc. indicates.
The Paychex | IHS Small Business Jobs Index, released Tuesday, grew 0.05 percent in the 12 months leading up to May. The report uses information gleaned from Paychex in its database of small-business clients.
While the national index decreased to 101.15 from April to May, the pace of small-business job growth remained positive, the report noted. Washington and San Francisco lead the index among the states and metro areas measured.
"Though the index gave up its April gains, small-business hiring conditions remain strong," said James Diffley, chief regional economist at IHS. "Indeed, it has been the best quarter in a decade."
Martin Mucci, Paychex president and CEO, said the numbers are encouraging, even if smaller than in recent months.
"While small businesses grew at a slower rate in May than they did in April, it's encouraging to see the growth trend continue," Mucci said. "With real estate markets rebounding in the Southwest and increases in tech jobs in the Pacific Northwest, we're hopeful that the slow, steady growth we've been seeing will continue to advance."

This is an excellent show where the presenter has done a great deal of research on different religions. The younger members of the audience appeared bemused as presumably they are ignorant of all religions. For us oldies it was fascinating and thought provoking. One of the best shows we saw during our week in Edinburgh.

LIA's Laser U releases new applications, safety course modules for continuing education
The Laser Institute of America (LIA), Orlando, Fla., has added a dozen modules to Laser U, its online laser education portal. Seven of the new courses come from the institute's Laser Additive Manufacturing (LAM®) Workshop, while five more are from the biennial International Laser Safety Conference (ILSC®) held in Orlando in March.
The online course modules give users access to industry content they might have missed at the events, while allowing them to learn at their own pace. Topics vary from 3-D printing to drilling, welding, wireless, and optical product requirements.
Modules consist of the audio of the speaker's address and the slides from his or her presentation. Users can move throughout the presentation at their own pace. Several modules allow a preview before ordering.
