Short answer: Probably, at least to some degree. And exchange-traded funds were an important tool in carrying it out.
The most recent data show that Wall Street's big firms are, at minimum, excellent trend followers, and potentially also the trend's driver. Here's how we know that: The tight correlation during the first quarter between gold's price moves and the flow of money in and out of gold ETFs, such as SPDR Gold Trust (GLD), plus investment advisors' quarterly portfolio disclosures, which came in the last few days.
There's been a 92% correlation between the number of gold ETF shares in the market and the change in gold's price, JPMorgan Chase derivatives strategist Marko Kolanovic shows this morning in a client email. It means that ETF users are either right on target with the trend, or they're helping create it (probably both).
Commerzbank's commodity strategists pieced together the last week's 13F portfolio disclosures to show that no fewer than 75% of redemptions from the biggest gold ETF were undertaken by reporting institutional investors. Hence, the firm isn't shy about pointing a finger:

Boston Celtics player Terrence Williams was arrested Sunday afternoon in Kent, Wash., for allegedly making threats to the mother of his child while brandishing a gun, according to published reports.
The Seattle Times reported the incident happened about 2 p.m. Pacific time at a downtown Kent parking lot. Williams and the woman had a scheduled visitation exchange with their 10-year-old son. According to the The Times, the two started arguing and Williams revealed a firearm and made threats.
Williams, 25, was located and arrested by police at another location without incident.The Times reported Kent police are labeling it as a domestic violence case that is under investigation.
Williams, a 6-6 guard/forward, played at Louisville from 2005-09 and was the 11th overall pick in the 2009 NBA draft. His career started with the New Jersey Nets, before spending time with the Houston Rockets and Sacramento Kings. He played part of this past season in China, before signing a 10-day contract with the Celtics in February.
Williams caught on with the Celtics and signed for the remainder of the season and next season. His contract that is scheduled to pay him $947,907 would become guaranteed if he isn't waived before Oct. 31. Williams averaged 4.6 points, 1.6 assists, and 1.8 rebounds in 24 games for the Celtics this season.
Williams is from the Seattle area.
Brown also writes for the Louisville Courier-Journal, a Gannett property.

Get excited about reading again with fun and interesting tips from our experts, including The M.D., our dietitians, and our fitness expert. In our health library, you will find all of the information you need to achieve your goals of making a healthy lifestyle change. So, start reading and start losing!
Weight Loss
From the effects of the hormone cortisol to the role of genetics in weight loss, this category is packed with everything that you need to know about losing weight the healthy way.
These three letters are synonymous with losing weight, but what is a BMI, and what exactly does it tell you?
Losing weight is scary enough without the extra stress of analyzing data. When it comes to a BMI, though, don't fret about it: the results of this test can help you achieve your lifetime goals, and can even help save your life.
BMI stands for body mass index, and is calculated from a person's weight and height. Although a BMI does not measure body fat directly, it can be considered an alternative for direct measures of body fat.
When people ask, "what is a BMI?" they aren't quite sure what to expect. The reasons behind the importance of a BMI go way beyond cosmetics—it can actually tell the tale of a body that is going into risk overload.
What Risks Can a BMI Determine?
Rather than just telling you that you need to get healthy, a BMI can help you realize just how much you don't want certain diseases.
Christy Shatlock is a registered dietitian, and one of the lead dietitians for BistroMD. As an expert on nutrition, Christy knows how important a BMI can be—especially when it comes to living a longer life and promoting better health.
"Let's say, I'm 240 pounds, which means I need to be about 140-150 for my height for optimal health," says Christy. "Every day, I'm probably tired, sluggish, lacking energy, but that's all I'm thinking about. I don't think about the fact I am more likely to get cancer. I don't think about the fact that I can get diabetes and may have to take insulin every day. I don't think about getting heart disease and clogged arteries. The only thing I'm thinking about is that I know I don't like my body, and I know it's hard for me to control what I eat."
When it comes to the importance of a BMI, look at it like a doctor's appointment. While in the office, your doctor is constantly prodding you and analyzing your health risks. Your doctor may also emphasize that your current physical condition is putting you at great risk for conditions like diabetes and heart disease.
"Of course we don't want these diseases," says Christy. "But when people don't take the opportunity to lose weight, it's almost like they disregard their risk."
Essentially, a BMI is a scale used by physicians to determine exactly what your risk is for developing certain conditions.
"If you are five pounds overweight, it's a lot different than being 30 pounds overweight," says Christy. "This is also much different from being 100 pounds overweight. The difference is how likely you are to get these diseases."
Basically, a person with more weight is more at risk, which is another way of saying that a person with a higher BMI is more at risk for certain diseases and conditions.
What Do the Numbers Tell Me?
Typically, a BMI will tell you one of four things: if you are underweight, at a healthy weight, if you are overweight, or if you are obese.
This reading takes your height and weight and produces a score for the category in which you fall under, based on these factors. Another consideration for a BMI score usually includes age.
"BMI essentially gives you a number that reveals your body fatness," says Christy. "The scores range between less than 18.5, up to 30 plus."
A score that falls within the 25-30 range means that you are either overweight or obese. This puts you at a greater risk of developing certain, sometimes fatal conditions, like heart disease and different types of cancer.
"If you take a BMI and fall within this range, it's important that you take action immediately, especially if your score is over 30," says Christy. "I have personally worked with bistroMD's founding physician, Caroline J. Cederquist, M.D., to develop the BMI test on the bistroMD website. The test is very conclusive, and will point out your specific risks, based on this information."
So, what's the best thing you can do for your body if your BMI falls outside of a healthy range?
"Start eating a healthy diet," says Christy. "People don't realize that eating the right balance of foods on a daily basis can actually help save your life."
This healthy balance of nutritionally proportioned meals can be delivered right to your door, courtesy of the experts at bistroMD.
"As one of the top weight loss physicians in the nation, Dr. Cederquist knows exactly what you need to feed your body in order to lose weight. This is exactly why she created convenient delivery of healthy and delicious meals from bistroMD," says Christy. "Each meal contains the right balance of nutrition to retrain your metabolism to help you lose weight. You will lose weight, but in a healthy and effective way. With a proper diet from bistroMD, you may also be adding extra years to your life."
Simply answer a few questions so we can figure out your weight loss goals and provide solutions for a lighter, healthier you. Our weight loss meal plans are designed to help real people achieve real and lasting success.

Virgin Blue Launch Flight Lands At Whitsunday Coast12/04/2003
Low Fares and Direct Sydney-Whitsunday Coast Service Prove Huge Winner For Tourism
Virgin Blue will today touch down for the first time at Whitsunday Coast Airport (Proserpine), with the inaugural flight taking off from Sydney at 9.30am and arriving at 11.55am.
It marks the airline's newest addition to its route network, following strong demand for a convenient direct service to one of Australia's most popular tourist destinations.
In true Virgin Blue style, the Sydney-Whitsunday Coast launch flight will involve celebratory in-flight activities including free champagne, face painting and a few other surprises for Guests on board.
An in-flight auction will also be held to raise money for one of Virgin Blue's favourite charities, The Clown Doctors.
The initial response to the new service has been outstanding, with the launch flight fully booked and forward bookings also trending strongly.
Virgin Blue spokesperson Amanda Bolger said, "We anticipated an enthusiastic reaction to the new direct Whitsunday Coast service but are simply amazed at how quickly it happened.
Clearly, the Whitsunday region is a favourite destination for tourists wanting to soak up the sunshine and stunning scenery and affordable direct access, makes it even appealing."
Virgin Blue will operate a weekly flight timed to boost key markets such as packaged holidays, as well as the 7-day bareboat charter market in the beautiful Whitsunday Islands.
The Virgin Blue schedule, which sees Guests departing Sydney at 9.30am and arriving at 11.55am on Saturday, is designed to get holiday-makers into the Whitsunday region in time for a sunset soiree.
The return flight departing Whitsunday Coast at 12.30pm and arrives in Sydney at 2.45pm, means travellers can enjoy one last sleep in or take down their sails before heading home.
For people who can't spend the full 7 days, daily flights to and from nearby Mackay with convenient bus connections from the Whitsundays to Mackay Airport give people the option of flying home any day they like without having to pay through the nose.
Virgin Blue's fantastic everyday fares between Sydney and the Whitsunday Coast start from $199 one-way on the net, with the Fully Flexible fare of $385 one-way on the net, 33% lower than the Qantas equivalent fare of $579.
Connections are also available between the Whitsunday Coast and Melbourne and Adelaide.
"From past experiences, the launch of a new Virgin Blue route means a great tourism boost and while it's early days, judging from the response to our new Whitsunday Coast service, the region is set to become even more popular as a preferred paradise playground", Amanda Bolger finished.

Ingomar hosts Christmas Classic
Overcoming a slow start, the Falcons won its third straight game in as many nights, defeating Falkner, 74-36, on Saturday.
Shooting 3-for-20 and tied with the Eagles after the first quarter, Ingomar went on a 10-0 run in the second and out scored Falkner, 25-8, in the frame, taking a 33-8 halftime lead.
"Probably the thing that I'm most proud of is that we played good defense that kept us in the game and then made a lot of effort on the offensive glass, because we couldn't buy one," Ingomar coach Jonathan Ashley said.
"We started sticking some of them back in, and that was probably the turning point. We had some turnovers off the press and took those back for lay ups, and the effort was great; shooting wasn't very good, but we found a way make a few and then they got frustrated."
Henry Foster led the Falcons with 18 points, followed by 17 points from LaQuain Foster. The win was the third straight for Ingomar, having defeated Potts Camp, 74-44, on Thursday and West Union, 67-33, on Friday.
"After Tuesday's loss at Houlka, we came out here and worked harder on being tougher to score against," Ashley said. "If we pay attention to being tougher to score against, we'll have a chance to be pretty good come division time."
Against the Cardinals last Thursday night, Henry Foster and LaQuain Foster each scored 19 points to lead the Falcons, and Alex Jeter added 12 points.
LaQuain Foster scored 12 points in the first quarter, helping Ingomar to a 21-13 lead after the first, and had 16 of his 19 points in the first half.
The Falcons were on the road on Monday at Houlka.
Myrtle wins two in tournament
The Hawks also picked up wins against Falkner and Potts Camp over the weekend, defeating the Eagles, 68-39, on Thursday and the Cardinals, 76-53, on Saturday.
Against Falkner, Keon Hampton led the Hawks with 21 points, 18 points scored in the first half.
Leading 20-12 after the first, the Hawks went on an 11-0 run to open the second and led 42-18 at the break. Robert Montgomery scored 13 of his 19 points in the first half.
Montgomery led the Hawks with 20 points in Saturday's win against Potts Camp, but his teammates put the team ahead in the first half, as the senior had only three points at the half.
Taylor Hogue had 11 points in the first half, and Myrtle led by that margin at the half. Montgomery hit nine-of-14 free throws in the second half and two three-pointers, helping the Hawks in the win.
Myrtle hosted East Union on Monday.
Lady Falcons defeat Myrtle, fall to Falkner
In a busy weekend with three games, the Lady Falcons defeated Myrtle on the first night of the Christmas Classic and defeated West Union on Friday before falling to Falkner, 47-41, on Saturday.
In the win over the Lady Hawks, Hannah Russell scored 15 points, followed by 14 points from Reid Little.
The Lady Falcons opened the game going ahead 16-0 before Myrtle scored its first points on free throws from Meshay Cox.
Little scored 12 points in the first quarter, and the Lady Falcons hit five three-pointers in the frame to lead 23-2.
Mallory Adair hit three three-pointers, finishing with 11 points, and Heather Dillard also scored 11 points for the Lady Falcons. Cox finished with 15 points to lead Myrtle.
Ingomar picked up a tough 48-42 overtime win over West Union on Friday night and were unable to comeback against Falkner, falling 47-41 on Saturday.
Breanna Williams scored 16 of the Lady Eagles' 18 first quarter points, including the final eight of the frame to put Falkner ahead, 18-10.
Williams had 20 points at the break and finished with 36 in the game.
Little brought the Lady Falcons within four points, 45-41, but the Lady Eagles held on for the six-point win.
Little led Ingomar with 12 points, followed by Adair with 11 points.
The Lady Eagles played at Houlka on Monday.
Potts Camp takes win over Myrtle
Hayley Davis and Meshay Cox led their respective squads with 16 points each, but Potts Camp built an early lead, eventually leading to the 70-32 victory.
Davis scored 10 points in the first quarter, and after being tied at two early on, the Lady Cardinals went on a 7-0 run in the frame and led 27-10 after the first.
The Lady Cardinals had three players finish in double figures, Davis, Tenesha Woods with 14 points and Brittney Pitts with 10 points. Potts Camp picked up a Thursday win over Falkner, 73-45, to open the tournament.
Myrtle returned to play on Monday, hosting East Union.

Pasco Police Investigating Motel Homicide
Pasco police are searching for answers after they find a person dead in an extended stay motel room this morning.
Officers say a fire took place in the room, and they have not identified the body yet.
They are investigating the death as a homicide.
People staying at the motel say the death is causing them enough concern to think about moving out.
Lance Patton has been staying at the Tahitian Inn on West Lewis Street with his wife for nearly a year, and says he's nervous about staying there much longer after today's possible homicide.
"Yeah, it's scary that I put my wife in that position" said Patton.
This morning, a maid at the motel who was cleaning up found a dead body in one of the rooms.
The maid said the room was a mess, and the body was on the floor.
Pasco police arrived just before 10 AM to investigate.
"We've encountered a deceased individual inside one of the rooms here, it appears to be a fire that has taken place inside the room" said Cpt. Jim Raymond, Pasco Police Department.
Investigators say the fire damaged the inside of the room - the maid said the room looked black.
Officers say the fire looks suspicious.
"The room is suspicious in nature, there appears to have been something that has taken place that's suspicious, and we're going to investigate that and try to determine the facts" said Cpt. Raymond.
Patton says the motel isn't the safest place to live.
He says police officers regularly visit the property, and he keeps a crowbar and a knife in his room, just in case something happens.
"Every month, there's cops here. Drugs and alcohol, and whatever people do" said Patton.
After today's possible homicide, Patton is getting ready to move out.
He says he doesn't feel comfortable living there with his wife anymore.
"I told her, we're gonna leave within the week" said Patton.
Members of the Washington State Patrol crime lab arrived at the motel this afternoon.
They will spend tonight processing the scene.
Then, the Franklin County coroner will take the body and prepare for an autopsy.
The coroner says when he looked into the room, it was not clear if the body had been burned or not.
He hopes to have more information tomorrow.

How often do you find time to sew for yourself? Usually I find myself making something for a birthday, baby shower, wedding or other upcoming occasion.

The new book Sew Serendipity by Kay Whitt has inspired me to change that!
Sew Serendipity is accompanied by three full-size patterns that can be modified and adjusted in dozens of ways for lots of different body types and sizes, and the beautiful photography has me itching to create something new.

The New York Runway Report: Fall 2012
From far away, Mary Katrantzou's prints look like colorful, energetic, fun and skillfully mixed. Up close, the patterns on her intricately constructed clothes — meant to highlight a woman's most feminine features like her bust and waist — are surreal to the least.
There are spoons and hangers in repeating patterns across the paneled bodice and sleeves of strict dresses with just a little ruffle at the hem. And those are actually two horses rearing to meet each other across the bodice of another babydoll dress with voluminous ruffles that, from afar, looks like the inside of an oyster shell.

Who has the most thrilling voice on the planet?
Ask any opera house, any conductor, any director; ask any prima donna who they want by their side, and you'll hear the name Jonas Kaufmann.
Whether it's Tosca or Carmen at Royal Opera House, Don Carlo at the Salzburg Festival, Lohengrin at La Scala or the Bayreuth Festival, Werther in Paris, Il Trovatore, La Forza del Destino or Fidelio in Munich or Parsifal at the Metropolitan Opera, they're all clamouring for a piece of this powerhouse performer.
With a voice matured like a rich Bordeaux, Kaufmann is at the pinnacle of his career. And he's unleashing that heroic sound of his in two rare concert appearances.
Join us for his longed-for Australian debut, accompanied by full orchestra conducted by Jochen Rieder and treating us to arias by Verdi, Puccini, Bizet and more.
A once in a lifetime experience.
Watch the trailer
|Jochen Rieder
|Jonas Kaufmann
Official Airline Partner
The greatest operatic voice of our century.
Bay Area Reporter
Kaufmann's artistry has become universally accepted as the benchmark for excellence, and it's allied to a magnetically attractive physical presence.
The Independent
The hottest tenor in opera.
New York Times
"... the most outstanding singing and compelling artistry I've ever witnessed."
The Australian (login required)
"... it was clear from the glorious mahogany-coloured opening notes of
Recondita Armonia (appropriate "hidden harmonies"), the opening aria from
Puccini's Tosca, that this was one of the great singers of our time."
★★★★★ Sydney Morning Herald
"Standing ovations don't come much more passionate than the 20-minute
one (including three encores) that met German tenor Jonas Kaufmann at the end of the
first of his three Australian concerts at the Sydney Opera House Concert Hall."
Daily Review
"Tonight we have experienced two Jonas Kaufmanns: one, an incredible technical
beast and consummate professional; the other playful, spontaneous and endearing. He
is that dangerous combination: a leading man with substance and style."
★★★★★ The Guardian
"Arriving onstage beaming from ear to ear, the singer proceeded to thrill the
crowd with his art, charm and passion."

OSWEGO — After starting the Oswego Holiday Tournament with two tough opponents in Neuqua Valley and Batavia, the Minooka Indians girls basketball team looked to finish 2-2 overall in the tournament as it took on Rosary Saturday. Unfortunately, the Indians let a 10-point third quarter lead slip away as they lost to the Royals 42-39.
Sloppy play was killer all day for Minooka, as it committed 23 turnovers in the contest. Seven of these came in the fourth quarter, where Rosary outscored the Indians 17-8.
"I thought we lost our composure," Minooka coach Ray Liberatore said. "I think in the first half we did good breaking their press. And even though we were still winning there late, we started to lose our confidence."
Rosary took its first lead in the second half at 36-35 with around three minutes to go in the game. The Royals hadn't led since they went up 17-15 in the second quarter.
After they took the lead, the Royals were able to maintain that lead due to great free throw shooting. Rosary made 6-of-7 free throws down the stretch to hang on for the victory.
"Free throws have been one of our weaknesses the entire year, and so it was really good to see our girls step up to the line with confidence and a Tully make them," Rosary coach Jessie Wilcox said.
Up until the end, the Indians and Royals had played a tightly contested game. With the game tied at 21 in the third quarter, Minooka went on a 10-0 run to take a 31-21 advantage. Rosary hit two late buckets in the third to make it a six-point lead for the Indians before letting the game slip away in the fourth.
"We had some nice match ups inside that we felt we could take advantage of," Liberatore said. "We came out in the second half and rebounded better as well. They were pretty aggressive, so I thought that we were doing a good job at just limiting them to one shot."
The fourth quarter, though, is when it all unraveled for Minooka, who now drop to 4-9 overall on the season. Rosary's press was able to get to the Lady Indians, leading to easy buckets for the Royals.
"In games in the past, we've looked at the scoreboard, saw that we were down ten, and would have given up," Wilcox said. "The girls stayed in physically and mentally, and didn't give up till the final whistle."
Minooka will play in one more holiday tournament against Edwardsville before returning to conference action in the new year. Although a 1-3 showing at Oswego wasn't what the Indians wanted, they know they can grow from the tournament.
"The biggest thing for us going forward is to be able to handle the ball," Liberatore said. "To generate offensive looks, we have to be able to make simple passes to our girls inside. We just have to cut down on our turnovers, even if we have to shuffle some players around."

Maybe five years ago or so, Taylor comes to my house three days before Christmas with his hot bread and a Merry Christmas card attached. I had talked to his mom and I look forward every Christmas to that loaf of bread.
Well, this summer Taylor has been coming over to my home more often. He almost always has his little sister in tow and in his hand he always has two tomatoes from their garden and a very small zucchini because he heard that I liked small zucchinis. Sometimes the tomatos are pretty good size and sometimes they are quite small.
Now this young man is about 9 or 10 years old and he doesn't say much when he comes but he beams all over when I make a fuss about his vegetables. I make that fuss because it is genuine. So all summer long, every time I was secretly hankering for a tomato, here would come Taylor with his offering, out of the blue, to make me wonder how he ever knew I was thinking that I wished I had one.
Late in September he came over one evening and he said that this was going to be the last of the garden. Of course I thanked him and offered him the usual treat from my treat container, which sometimes he simply turns down, I thanked him and he was off.
I thought I had had my last visit until last night. Here came Taylor again. This time he had two of the most beautiful tomatoes I have every seen. Perfect in every sense of the word, firm, ripe, medium sized tomatoes.
Taylor said, "Sister Bishop this is absolutely the last of the last." Of course I squealed and carried on and Taylor was just a beaming. His chest just a popping out.
I was fixing dinner and I told him I would have one with my dinner and he played with Sasha a minute or two and left.
When I went to slice one of the tomatoes, I was looking at it and the thought struck me that it might well be mushy or mealy because it was the end of the garden and had been sitting out for a long time. You know how tomatoes can be.
I like the skin peeled off my tomatoes but I was in too big of a hurry to go through the procedure. Besides I just didn't think it was going to be that great when I cut into it.
Now, at the last possible second, I decided to peel it and skip the scalding procedure and you know what, that skin peeled off that tomato as smooth as a baby's bottom and when I took a small taste the texture was perfect and the taste was heavenly. That tomato was absolutely the most perfect tomato I had eaten all summer long.
That's when it hit me. How could I have thought any different. How could I have doubted. After all, it was from Taylor and the "last of the last."
Thanks Taylor for thinking of me and making me feel so special.
Well, that is my world. Until next time remember: "And a little child shall lead them."

On almost all early planimeters (and some later ones), the motion of the tracer point was transferred to a wheel that rolled around the surface of a cone, disc, sphere, or cylinder while the wheel also slid along a track. The dual motion recorded both the distance the tracer point moved along the x axis of the drawing and the distance the tracer point moved along the y axis of the drawing. The turning of the cone generated a series of angles. The sum of these angles is represented by an integral, taken (in the clockwise direction) along the boundary of the region being measured, multiplied by a constant based on the dimensions of the planimeter. The user read the result of the integral from numbered dials on the instrument. For instance, G. A. Carse and J. Urquhart described the operation of Oppikofer's planimeter with the equation:
where ω is the angle turned through by the cone; α is the central angle of the cone; r is the radius of the cone; and r' is the radius of the wheel. Modern mathematicians recognize the integrals calculated by various planimeters as versions of Green's Theorem, which expresses the relationship between a line integral around a simple closed curve and a double integral over the plane region bounded by that curve.
|Ad for a rolling planimeter similar to the instruments by Sang and Coradi in the mathematics collections, from Catalogue of Keuffel & Esser Co., 33rd ed. (New York, 1909), 325.
These forms of planimeters were heavy and expensive, so they were never popular in the United States. The collection contains examples acquired from Europe that were designed by members of the second generation of planimeter inventors, Scottish civil engineer John Sang and Swiss engineer and railway designer Kaspar Wetli, and a later device developed by German geomagnetist Adolf Schmidt. Some of the major manufacturers of polar planimeters also offered earlier forms of planimeters, as is illustrated by a rolling sphere planimeter made in the Zurich workshop established by Gottlieb Coradi. Finally, in the second half of the 20th century, the American company Lasico sold a wheel and disc planimeter for finding the average of the square roots of all the radial distances from the zero circle to a given line on a circular chart.
"Planimeters - Cone/Disc/Cylinder" showing 1 items.
Sang Platometer
- Description
- In 1851 Scottish civil engineer John Sang (1809–1887) exhibited a form of rolling planimeter at the Crystal Palace Exhibition in London. He called the instrument a "planometer," which he changed to "platometer" when he described the instrument to the Royal Scottish Society of Arts a few months later. Like all planimeters, this object measures the area bounded by a closed curve. Sang's device is also significant because it inspired James Clerk Maxwell to work on planimeters, which in turn gave James and William Thomson ideas that helped them develop a mechanical integrator.
- This example is an improved version of Sang's original instrument. A brass cone is on a steel rod that connects two brass rollers. An open brass frame surrounds the rod. It has four brass rollers that slide along a brass base to which the rod is anchored. The frame has a tracer with an ivory handle, a silver measuring wheel that rolls against the side of the cone, and a small magnifying glass. The handle on the tracer arm and the construction of the measuring wheel are changed from Sang's original design.
- The measuring wheel rotates only when the tracer arm's movement is perpendicular to the axis of the cone. The rate at which the wheel moves depends on its distance from the vertex of the cone. For example, when the tracer arm moves a distance S perpendicular to the axis, its reading changes by an amount equal to the area of a rectangle with sides equal to S times the distance from the vertex. The instrument is in a wooden case.

Skip to comments.Ex-Defense chief Rumsfeld to face off with military brass over Law of the Sea
Posted on 06/08/2012 11:18:16 AM PDT by jazusamo
Donald Rumsfeld is returning to Capitol Hill next week to testify
against the United States joining the United Nations's Law of the Sea treaty, pitting him squarely against the military brass that he used to command as former President George W. Bush's secretary of Defense.
Rumsfeld's testimony before the Senate Foreign Relations Committee is especially relevant because he was former President Reagan's emissary against the treaty back in 1982, when international momentum was for it. Proponents of the treaty have been trotting out former Reagan officials former Secretary of State George Shultz, former Deputy National Security Adviser John Negroponte to argue that changes to the treaty would have met with Reagan's approval, but Rumsfeld's appearance throws a wrench in that strategy.
Critics say it would curtail the U.S. military's freedom of navigation while allowing a UN agency to directly tax U.S. oil-and-gas companies.
Rumsfeld wasn't available to comment.
The so-called United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea was designed to codify navigation rights in international waters, he writes in his memoir, Known and Unknown. But it had grown into something considerably more ambitious, with a proviso that would put all natural resources found in the seabeds of international waters into the hands of what was ominously called the International Seabed Authority.
Reagan's attorney general, Edwin Meese, has also been leading the charge against ratification of the treaty.
"With the treaty again under consideration by the Senate, Meekswrote in the Los Angeles Times this week, it's important to note that Reagan's objections to it were anything but trivial.
Rumsfeld was invited to speak by committee Chairman John Kerry (D-Mass.), who has vowed to invite witnesses on all sides of the issue despite his personal support for the treaty. Rumsfeld will be testifying next Thursday afternoon along with Negroponte and John Bellinger, a former legal adviser to the State Department under Bush, who supported ratification.
Kerry's committee is also holding another hearing Thursday morning with current military officials, who argue for rapid ratification as China expands into the South China Sea, where the treaty recognizes the sovereignty of the Philippines, a U.S. ally, and other countries.
Go RUMMY!!! Dick Cheney should testify against it also!!
I'll bet the rent on Rummy.
GO Rummy GO!!
Absolutely! I'd love to see all of them testify live.
If you're a Globalist or kiss the feet of your masters you're for LOST.
Good to see Rumsfeld knows the correct score here.
I can't imagine what military brass of ours would be in favor of this treaty. More mysterious is how they came to be brass in our navy? I assumed all of our military command positions were filled by tried and true patriots, unwilling to yield anything to the United Nations, especially anthing that would decrease and/or undermine their own bailiwicks.

The UN is becoming the new USSR
Must not have the votes to get past the filibuster or it would be another cram down. Remember - House doesn't get a vote on treaties - Senate only in advise and consent role.
A while back I was astonished when articles came out saying our military brass were for this. The below is from 5-23-12.
Top Military, Diplomatic Brass Urge Senate To Ratify Law Of The Sea Treaty
You're correct. I sure hope we have the filibuster votes.
Top military Brass are selling out and the "Diplomatic Brass" aka the State Department, are always Globalist types who like to play kissy face with the UN and kiss from their diplomatic posts around the world.
Cheney came out supporting it about 4 years ago.
Pentagon brass is a cesspit of leftists. The Clintonoid generals Shalikashvili and Shinseki immediately come to mind. I think it was Shalikashvili who wanted to transition the Army away from tracked vehicles and toward tires like the European armies, hence the Striker APC. Shinseki was the liberal moron that implemented back berets for all Army personnel.
Then there's Maj. General Stephen Coughlin, who was buttbuddies with his islamist aide Hesham Islam.
Let's not forget the leftist imbecile Gen. George Casey, who said that while the Fort Hood massacre was a tragedy, "I believe it would be an even greater tragedy if our diversity becomes a casualty here."
Add to the list the kabal of lesbian admirals that ran inteference for the widely despised Adm. Holly Graf.
So you see, the military rank & file are patriots, but the Joint Chiefs and top-level Pentagon brass are not.
Major retraction: it WAS NOT Stephen Couglin. Whew. Some other official turned a blind eye to Hesham Islam, I think Gordon England (Gullible Gordy).
By bad. Apologies to all.
Rummy flew Grumman F9F Panther jet fighers in the 50's. Always liked that about him, it was a kickass aircraft.
I assumed our highest political offices were 'filled' by actual AMERICANS.
It seems were were both wrong.
(sorry, my fingers have decided to practice mutiny)
Is seems WE were both wrong.
Absolutely not. There are one-world-order statists everywhere, even in the military.
If we quit sending them money, maybe they would collapse like the USSR.
The gentleman next door passed away about 8 or 9 months ago, he was 90. He was a Naval Aviator and flew in WWII as well as after and flew F9F's, I believe it was the last aircraft he flew.
His memory was slipping the last few years but he had a den with many pics and mementos, he was very interesting to talk to.
Cheney and Bush both supported it. Go figure
My old plane, it was a good one.
Yes thank God Rumsfeld and Meese are against LOTS treaty
Embarassing our military leaders are for it. I am not that old, and I can remember such support of anything so anti-American got you courts-martialed for treason
Globalism is anti-Americanism

I'm late in reviewing this book, which was published in November, because I almost decided not to buy it. Last fall I was banging my head against the wall trying to take the gluten out of vegan recipes and the eggs out of gluten-free recipes, and the last thing I needed was another collection of creative recipes and gorgeous photos to remind me of everything I couldn't eat. Thankfully, Isa and Terry remembered the gluten-free folk; as vegans, they understand how hard it is to eye a batch of warm, gooey cookies and know they are off-limits. In the first section of the book, Cookie Science, they provide ratios for an all-purpose Gluten Frida Mix, along with the promise that every single recipe in the book can be prepared gluten-free.
Could this be true? I threw together a gallon of Gluten Frida and began baking.
The book's one hundred recipes are divided into five categories: Drop Cookies, Wholesome Cookies, Bar Cookies, Fancy Cookies, and Sliced and Rolled cookies. I'm a drop cookie gal through-and-through (why make cookies if you can't enjoy the dough?), so I started with the Cherry Almond Cookies. Almonds, tangy dried cherries, and almond extract made a delicious and addicting combination, but the cookies were flat and crumbled easily. I added 1 teaspoon of xanthan gum to a second batch and got puffier cookies that stayed soft and cohesive for several days.
The Oatmeal Raisin Cookies (made with gluten-free oats) had similar texture issues: by the second day they had fallen apart and formed an oatmeal-raisin loaf. Not very pretty, and not very portable, but still delicious: I couldn't keep my fingers away from that cinnamon and nutmeg-spiced loaf. Without gluten, this recipe also benefitted from a teaspoon a xanthan gum.
I moved on to the wholesome Peanut Butter Agave Cookies.
They were soft and chewy, and thanks to the agave and brown rice syrup, didn't need any additional binders. They weren't as sweet as traditional peanut butter cookies, and it was nearly impossible to form a criss-cross pattern in the wet dough, but if you like the flavor of agave nectar, you might prefer these to the traditional granulated sugar version.
Next: gooey, caramely pecan filling on a shortbread crust? Good lord, yes.
For these Caramel Pecan Bars, I used for coconut flour instead of almond in my gluten-free mix, and it made the shortbread dough very dry. I needed half a cup of water to form it into crumbs. The shortbread needed a few extra minutes to begin browning, but it held together well and sliced cleanly, without any xanthan or guar gum. The recipe calls for lining a baking dish with tin foil, but since some of my (oiled) tin foil stuck to the sticky caramel, I might try parchment or wax paper next time. These pecan bars are almost as good as my favorite maple syrup-laced pecan pie recipe, and much less expensive. I will make them often.
The book's final recipe is for Cookie Dough Scoops, which are just spoonfuls of straight-up chocolate chip cookie dough (bitter-tasting baking soda is omitted). Gluten-free, with rice and almond flour, this dough was a little grainy. When I'm craving cookie dough, I prefer the near-instant gratification of the Cherrybrook Kitchen mix.
Vegan Cookies Invade Your Cookie Jar is good enough replace my tattered old Mrs. Fields as go-to cookie book. The variety of recipes is exhaustive, from well-known classics (Gingerbread Cut-Out Cookies) to crazy new inventions (Tahini Lime Cookies and Spiced Sweet Potato Blondies). That said, if you're baking any of the recipes gluten-free, do a trial run before serving them to other people; you may need additional liquid or a binding agent. The Gluten Frida mix is fine for most cookies in this book, but the appearance and texture of ground flax seeds would alter the spirit of delicate cookies like shortbread or Macadamia Lace Cookies.
Because they don't need to rise much, cookies are generous to those of us new to gluten-free baking. I can't wait to try more of Isa and Terry's recipes and experiment with flour. I'm so glad I decided to give this book a shot!

David Otunga in "The Call"Photo by WWE Studios
By Chad Smart
@chadsmart & @my123cents on Twitter
Basedon events over the past couple of weeks, The Miz and Wade Barrett are feudingover which WWE Superstar is in the better movie or which one is the betteractor. Or maybe they�re feuding over what is the better movie snack. For thosethat aren�t aware, The Miz is the lead actor in the latest WWE Films direct toDVD movie The Marine 3. Wade Barrett plays Henchman #4 in the theatricalrelease Dead Man Down starring Colin Farrell and Terrance Howard. Neitherman should really be crowning himself the next Dwayne Johnson based on theseprojects. <>>
Wade Barrett & The Miz arguePhoto courtesy: WWEI have not seen any of theMarine movies so I can�t really comment on The Miz�s performance. Though, Iwill say, bragging about being a star in a movie that may already be in thediscount bin at Wal-Mart isn�t saying much. I did see Dead Man Down and thought it was good, but too slowpaced. The big shocker though isthat the newest addition to the WWE Films library is also one of theirbest. <>>The Call, starring HalleBerry opened this past weekend and placed number 2 at the box office with anestimated $18 million. While the previews had me thinking this would be anuninspired paint by numbers action movie, it turned out to be a pretty tensethriller. The bigger surprise wasthe actor playing the partner of the main cop, who knew David Otunga was a goodactor? I initially didn�t recognize him because he wasn�t wearing a bowtie orholding a thermos of coffee. <>>
Otunga serves as backupPhoto courtesy: WWE StudiosNow don�t start thinkingOtunga stole the movie, as his role was only slightly bigger than WadeBarrett�s role in Dead Man Down. Even so, if there�s going to be a feud overwho�s the better C-level actor in WWE today, then David Otunga should come outon RAW tonight and demand an Intercontinental title shot at Wrestlemania.There have been some feuds started over odd happenings (Edge/Booker T. fought over a Japanese shampoo commercial, Chris Jericho/Kane fought after Jericho spilled coffee on Kane) but I think feuding over who is the better actor in a movie few people know about and less people saw has to be up there with some of the flimsiest reasons to fight.

Great shoes!
"I gave these 4 stars instead of 5 due to the shoes that I received are slightly different than what's pictured. The shoes I received do not have the rhinestones on them. They are stiched on either side of the twist, which is fine with me as the stitching blends in. Also, I didn't realize from the pics that the twist wasn't centered on your foot. It took me a minute to decide if I was OK with that. Very, very comfortable shoes. Wish they came in a Wide width."

Cute Comfort to go
"I took a risk ordering these shoes 1/2 size smaller than I usually wear. I got a 7 when I wear 7 1/2. But they are a perfect fit. They are very cute and well made. Oh soo comfortable! I am going to the Caribbean in a few weeks and they will be perfect. One thing to note: the photo shows a few rhinestones on the front straps but when the shoes came there were no rhinestones. This was fine with me because I think rhinestones can be a bit tacky. The colors are true to the photo. Can't wait to try them out somewhere warm!"

That's the remarkable statistic in Christopher Condon's story on Capital Group Cos., the publicity-averse $1.2 trillion company behind American Funds.
The third-biggest mutual-fund family, mostly invisible in the national press, has lost a remarkable $242 billion to investor withdrawals since 2007, a flight generally attributed to its funds' poor financial-crisis performance.
Now it looks like the company is ready to engage.
James Rothenberg, chairman of Capital Research and Management, comes out swinging for active management versus passive indexing in an interview with Bloomberg News' Condon:
The only voice that's been out there is the passive voice … We don't entirely agree that the answer for all people is indexing. In fact there can be a significant advantage to active investing. …
The frustration is with the stridency of the point of view on one side … We have a body of data that suggests something different.
Condon's got the goods on a Capital Group study concluding its stock-picking mutual funds beat their benchmark indexes in the majority of nearly 30,000 periods over 80 years: 57% of one-year periods, 67% of 5-year and 83% of 20-year ranges.
It's in keeping with a comparison of returns at American Funds and certain Vanguard Group offerings by John Rekenthaler of Morningstar back in July.
The story also has the goods on the 31% decrease in assets in the $123 billion Growth Fund of America (AGTHX).

College of Eastern Utah researchers have located the largest nodosaur ever, according to a December 2008 article in the Journal of Vertebrate Paleontology. The Nodosaur is an armored dinosaur that is part of the a group known as ankylosaurs.
The article written by Kenneth Carpenter of the Denver Museum of Nature and Science with the assistance of Jeff Bartlett, John Bird and Reese Barrick of the CEU Museum, reports that bones of a partial skull and post-cranial skeleton of a new large nodosaurid anklylosaur were found in the Cedar Mountain Formation southeast of Price.

National Women's Volleyball Team Athletes act as Honourary 'Big Sisters' on the WeekendWINNIPEG - Several athletes from the Winnipeg based National Women's Volleyball Team were out this weekend delivering a clinic for Big Brothers Big Sisters of Winnipeg. The clinic was held at Daniel McIntyre Collegiate on Saturday, April 10, and involved close to 20 participants from the Big Brothers Big Sisters of Winnipeg organization.
National Team members Tonya Mokelki (Weyburn, SK), Julie Young (Red Deer, AB), Janie Guimond (Montreal, QC), Tasha Holness (Calgary, AB) and Colette Meek (Edmonton, AB) ran the three hour clinic and put the participants through a series of skills and drill activities. Each participant also received a t-shirt and a volleyball, and enjoyed some pizza with the National Team athletes afterwards, giving them all a chance to mix and mingle.
This clinic was the first of an ongoing series that the National Women's Volleyball Team is planning in partnership with Big Brothers Big Sisters of Winnipeg. Funding support for this initiative was received by the WISE (Women and Sport Encouragement) Fund, through the Canadian Association for the Advancement of Women in Sport and Physical Activity (CAAWS), given out primarily to assist active women and/or organizations that are currently offering or creating sport programs targeted to girls and women.
Plans are currently underway for the next event to be held in the fall prior to the National Women's Team's departure for the World Championship in Japan.

Le Cannet is a northern suburb of Cannes, a resort town on the Côte d'Azur in southeast France. Situated on the slopes of the Provence Alps, Le Cannet looks out over Cannes, the Esterel Range and the Mediterranean.
Bonnard bought a house in Le Cannet in 1926 and he lived there permanently from about 1931 until he died in 1947. The structure at the bottom of the painting is almost certainly a footbridge over a nearby canal. Michel Terrasse, Bonnard's great-nephew, relates how 'A stony path climbing up behind the house led to the little Canal de la Siagne, which ran across the fields and olive groves where herdsmen tended their goats.'
Perhaps the track leads down the hill and links up with what could be a fork in the path at the base of the hill. In any case the viewer is plunged down the steep hillside to the level of the terracotta-tiled houses strewn over the wooded landscape of the valley between us and the distant hills or mountains.
As our eyes climb up the landscape, another question arises. Is that snow on a very high mountain range that we can see, or is it a luminous cloud bank?

Finished my full unit of Zealots and Monolith Bearer. Now to base them!
Finished my full unit of Zealots and Monolith Bearer. Now to base them!
Almost done with full Bushwhackers.
Primered EBDT, will probably get to base coat his flesh, too.
Since I'd decided to expand my Searforge into "General Mercenaries" forces, embracing all of the contracts, I dug out a whole bunch of Merc. models I'd gotten long ago on the cheap, but had never really had much of a use for. Most of it was already painted, but some of it wasn't.
So today I painted up:
Tomorrow I plan on working on the bases and doing touch-ups of the rest of the figs, making sure they're looking ok as well, so they can join in with everyone else.
Play the figs you want to play.
Got your cookie and plushie yet?
Finished dry brushing and matte sealing a friend's Beast-09 today, with a scheme he and I both agreed on; it resembles a rusted old battleship with lots of filth from coal smoke on the pipes. I will try to post pics of it if I can, as I'm not sure how to do so on here yet. Also am dry brushing and washing another friend's Trollblood Pyg Bushwhackers as we speak.

here is the link for it:
Full 10 Bane Knights assembled. Even threw them in a quick game afterwords.
Infernal from 30 September 2011 to 2 April 2014
Finished Slaughterborn, complete with front arc. He ate a half a Rhulic army by himself today, so he deserved it.
Cleaned up the base coat on my pGaspy and painted the soul cages. He's almost done, but I'd spent lke an hour...
...Repositioning my Leviathan. I was sick of him hanging off his base, and he's really been pulling his weight lately, so I gave him a more heroic, gunslinger kinda pose. Now if I could only find his headplate...
Warning: The above was posted by a salty oldhead. Only a fool would take these words at full face value (maybe.)
Fsckin cool. Those are the only words I have for that model. Wow.
Ok, technically it was yesterday and not today, but I still wanted to type it.
Painted the bases for the rest of my Mercenary force that I needed to re-do from other colors.
So I did:
Boomhowler full unit
Steelhead halberdiers full unit
I've also never been happy with how I originally posed my Vanguard. It was all hunched over with it's arms flailing to the side, since the halberd and shield are so tall.
So I cracked him all apart, despite really liking the paint job on him. I bent and stretched the legs so they're much taller than the original "crouched down" pose they were in. I then put him back together, tilting the torso up a little more as well to help make him taller. He looks much better now.
I was thinking I wouldn't be able to get around to painting him, though. But a break in the weather allowed me a short window to spray-base him over again. And lo and behold, I got him finished up. Even with a paint job basically equivalent to the one he'd originally had! Yay!
So now, I'm very definately done painting figs until I buy some new ones.
Play the figs you want to play.
Got your cookie and plushie yet?
Well it was actually over the weekend, but I got a bit of stuff done on my trolls! I assembled, green stuffed and primed my Extreme Mauler, so he's ready to get some paint slapped on him. I also busted out Grissel. She isn't quite done (needs basing and painted hair) but I really like how she turned out so I thought I'd share and this seemed like a good place to do it.
I also got the skin done on my Borka. He and the Keg carrier are next up on my painting list. More to come!
Got Harrower primed and on its base. Tonight I hope to start building on some objective markers for the Nightfall league coming up.
Infernal from 30 September 2011 to 2 April 2014
Finished Lt. Caine (resculpt).
Cygnar prevails!
finished drakhun and dismount
only got into WM a couple of weeks ago and went out at weekend and brought Gorten Grundback battlebox.
Assembled and undercoated and started painting Gorten today,sorry no picture yet,but looking good so far.
imagination is the only weapon we have in the war against reality....
"May your battles last long and your coffers stay deep!"-mercs
Did pre-assembly on a whole bunch of figures. Cleaned some mold-lines, flash, base inserts, did filing, etc. of 2 Warlocks, 2 light warbeasts, a medium based character, and a full support unit. Also washed them with soap and water and then rinsed them off and dried them... took some 3 hours, all in all :-/
-pThagrosh got some really tiny back-spines. Also couldn't manage to drill into one of his horns, which I hope will hold...
-I have no idea whatsoever where two of the Totem Hunter's three spikes go.
-The Farrow Bone Grinders' base-slots, those who have one for each leg are too big for a small base, and one has to be taken off. Either they were meant for medium bases or this is the price to pay for having a single part model... annoying.
-eLylyth had flash on her face, obliterating her few facial features. Sent an email to the Front Desk, do they send you an email reply? This means no eLyl for now.
-Nephilim Soldier, I nearly howled. How could the hands just don't fit? I'm going to need a fair amount of green stuff (huge gaps) in both parts... and if I want just one, I'm going to have to carve him a full inch or so... this is just bad. I spent 20 minutes trying to dry-fit it in some "Better" manner.
"I am light. I am dark. I must give my life to serve; not even death can release me."
- Selenia, Dark Angel.
Playing: Skorne, Legion.
Exact statistics with the Troll Calculator in this thread.
based painted:
Wold Warden
War Wolf solo
Unit of Shifting Stones
2016 MERCS (for real this time) Stunties Unite!
2017 Mercs (Bunny Ranch) Waiting for MOW theme
finished my sentry stones, wold warden and war wolf solo quick before class while listening to the new Focus and Fury episode.
2016 MERCS (for real this time) Stunties Unite!
2017 Mercs (Bunny Ranch) Waiting for MOW theme
finished gorman
Finished painting my Phoenix...now ill be painting Rahn or Vyros next.
Assembled 2 Warlocks, 1 support unit, 1 character solo, 2 light warbeasts. Heavy green-stuffing of the Nephilim Soldier arms, found where the spikes go on the Totem Hunter (arm-guard), and had to use tweezers to get pThagrosh's smallest back-spike into place.
Teraph's head remains unassembled until I could prime and paint the inside of the mouth before gluing it on.
"I am light. I am dark. I must give my life to serve; not even death can release me."
- Selenia, Dark Angel.
Playing: Skorne, Legion.
Exact statistics with the Troll Calculator in this thread.
Finished my Ranger unit today. I'll try to get some pics up soon.
I done wrestled with an alligator, I done tussled with a whale. I handcuffed lightning, throwed thunder in jail. Only last week I murdered a rock, Injured a stone, hospitalized a brick. I'm so mean, I make medicine sick! M. Ali
I did my hilight on the leathers on my borka, and did the green cloth base and hilight. I really like how he's turning out, very muted. Very different from what I usually do, just kinda happened haha. I'm hoping to finish him and the keg tomorrow!
pGaspy and the Corruptor done. Also went back and touched the old battlebox Slayer up a bit.
Got base colors on my Leviathan and Cankerworm. Deathjack needs some touchups too, as he's showing some wear.
Warning: The above was posted by a salty oldhead. Only a fool would take these words at full face value (maybe.)
I finally got those Stormcallers from back order . Grabbed a Reinholt as well.
what's left:
Stromblades (mostly done)
Rienholt (glued)
3 Stormcallers (pinned and glued)
Play on the east side of Columbus, Ohio?
Had to pause work on Laddermore... apparently if I have time to paint minatures I can paint the house also... Do Windsor & Newton make bigger brushes?
Most people say that what some people say is pretty stupid.
finished Baldur and Gorax, and a Max unit of IFP w/ UA real quick.
2016 MERCS (for real this time) Stunties Unite!
2017 Mercs (Bunny Ranch) Waiting for MOW theme
Finished Man-O-War Drakhun and a full unit of Dawnguard Invictors with their Officer and Standard Bearer for clients.
I got my 6 Flame Guard Cleansers painted today.
They almost finish my 35 point list for the league. SO in the last week I painted 2 crusaders, 2 redemers, 9 delivers (lost one or it would be 10), and the 6 cleansers. Just need to do my sunburst and crew and they will be all done.
EDIT: Well seeing that I only have 3 models left to paint I got them done today also. But now that all the other stuff got painted this week I am going to repaint Kreoss so everything has a new paint job for the League.
Last edited by warhawk-77; 04-04-2010 at 04:24 PM.
got my kodiak base coated and highlighted. gotta do the metals now.
Got Kreoss done today. Going to try and get some pics up tomorrow of all the stuff
Whew. Cankerworm is done. I can't say I'm happy with the outcome, but he's finally painted after a full year of owning him. Bane Thralls are next. I got most of the colors fleshed out, just need to finish up the details. Shouldn't take more than half a sitting.
I also went front arc crazy this time. Fear the pink breast cancer... fear the pink...
Warning: The above was posted by a salty oldhead. Only a fool would take these words at full face value (maybe.)
Pinned Captain Kara Sloan's body back onto her feet and base. I was painting her intently at my friend's house at their kitchen table, when their #*&%ing cat jumped quickly up onto my lap and dug her nails into my leg. It was so sudden it scared the hell out of me, and I jumped, which made the dug in nails rip my skin more and sending Kara FLYING, SERIOUSLY flying, across the kitchen. She landed and bent her whole body at the ankle in half. I was so furious. But on the bright side, her ankles are now very sturdy.
Also today, the same cat clawed my nose and made it bleed for twenty minutes. It had been nice to me all day, letting me pick her up and pet her and play. Then when I was about to leave, I picked her up to pet her on the head, she left two quarter inch cuts on my nose.
I hate that cat.
kodiak is done.

Skip to comments.Jon Stewart Rips into Birthers
Posted on 07/23/2009 10:32:48 AM PDT by steve-b
In the past week, there has been growing attention online and on cable television to the so-called "birther" movement of people who believe, against all the evidence, that President Obama was not born in the United States.
Last night, comedian Jon Stewart brought his viewers up to date on the high points of that undernews narrative, to use the Mickey Kaus phrase (earlier used by William Safire) for that odd amalgam of rumor, myth, speculation and actual facts that circulates as word of mouth and online....
(Excerpt) Read more at voices.washingtonpost.com ...
"All the evidence" - you mean "no evidence"
Against what evidence?
The Washington Post actually thought material on Comedy Central was worthy of a full story?
We must be getting under their skin.
I missed the episode where he ripped into McCain-birthers.
Hey stevey, did you get all tingly up your leg when the midget jonny went after the birfers?
Look for the suicide rate to skyrocket.
Well, Jon Stewart is very very liberal. He doesn't have the same target as he had when Bush was pres. So he's reduced to marginalizing any critics of this president.
Jon Stewart is a pompous jerk...can't stand him or his show. The whole faux news thing just irks me...
So he thinks he can turn his aging meth-head, butt-head audience into anti-birther shock troops?
Birthers (this term is new to me this week) have grown legs. Everyone is wondering now.
Proud to be a "birther".
As if Jon Stewart amounts to a hill of beans.
He's a comedian. Any serious politician who ends up on his show should consider another line of work.
You'd have to be out of your mind to end up on that show.
As such, he doesn't even understand the constitution. If he's got kids, and they play baseball, he ended up needing their birth certificates. There's zero evidence of where this guy was born, where he went to school, how he got to Indonesia, etc.
Obama can solve this in an hour. Jon can give himself a rectal exam for all I care. If he needs help bending back that far, many would love to help him out with that.
So why doesn't someone ask why Obama supporters are spending millions on lawyers to avoid discovery on this issue? All they have to do is produce a "Real Birth Certificate". It's as simple as that.
He's got a copy of the Kenyan birth certificate?
NBC Nightly News did a segment on the BC story too. It was terribly slanted! I think Obama's machine is giving out the talking points to their MSM buddies. Birthers MUST be onto something!
Question :
Has Obama spent money fighting this stuff in court when he could simply release the Hawaii BC or hasnt he?
If so Why?
people who believe, against all the evidence, that President Obama was not born in the United States
First, the issue of evidence is itself disputed. Saying "against all the evidence" begs the question.
Second, what unites "birthers" is their desire for Obama to show the original Hawaii birth certificate (not the CLB). They don't ALL necessary believe, affirmatively, that he's foreign-born (although some do); but ALL believe he should come forward with the original certificate, if only to put the questions to rest.
Jon Stewart is he still on the air? He's so 1999 and not all that young anymore.
Jon Stewart. Well they are certainly bringing out the "Big Guns" aren't they?
Just show the GD birth certificate dipstick, and it's all over.
Tired of hearing the left wing buttheads talk crap when all Obama has to do is prove it.
Talk all the crap you want, Make fun of birthers, it aint going away an it will get stronger as the polls drop.
Stewart has also spent the last week or so hosting Cabinet Secretaries (on a comedy show mind you) and lobbing softball after softball in oder to let them use his stage as a platform from which to spew their socialist message. They are trying to convince the younger generation that socialism is good and that (seriously) these people can take on the 'tough questions'.
Yet another sign we are living in Bizarro world.
Except the only piece of evidence that would put this all to rest, which is only one phone call away. Getting Obama to produce a Certificate of Birth is harder than getting Kerry to release his military records.
Jon, even if we were all to accept the proposition that birthers are a bunch of delusional clowns, you're not necessarily the best person to be making the argument.
It's good that the issue is hitting popular culture. It will live there in infamy like Area 51.
Based on the evidence, jon stewart will definitely go to hell.
Stewart and the Media think they can brow beat the 'Birthers' and they will go away. Not going to happen.
Obama lies all the time. You need proof that Obama lies all the time? Exhibit 'A', last nights press conference how many lies did Obama make in an hour?
We're still waiting for Obama to quit hiding his past and prove he's a natural born citizen in court - Stewart.
I challenge John Stewart and the other non-believers to personally request to see a certified, original copy of obama's birth cetificate. NOT the doctored certificate of live birth posted on some left wing web site.
Jon Stewart? Now we're screwed!
"of people who believe, against all the evidence, that President Obama was not born in the United States. "
What evidence...?
"...The whole faux news thing just irks me..."
Overheard on the Staten Island Ferry, "I have to hurry home and catch Jon Stewart do the news." This idiot actually believed it was a REAL news program.
"against all the evidence"
What evidence? That is the issue, that the evidence has not been presented to the jury for review.
Just keep talking about it.
The jester defends the king.
Who gives a rats ass what Jon Stewart thinks?
Really! Kerry was in the military?
Congressional hearing to decide "if" McCain is eligible to be a candidate. None on the O.
There is a problem, there are internet myths circulating that help to muddy the water, but the biggest problem is O himself. He refuses to release key documents, and he parses his words ever so carefully.
So after a while, people start to wonder why. I'm starting to wonder why.
Perhaps another candidate I'd give the benefit of the doubt. But this is the guy who's tied up with too many shady characters, between the crooks at ACORN, and Ayers, and Mansour, and Rezko, and Wright, that I have little reason to trust in his overall integrity.
Yes, i think he was. For some reason it is 'seared into my memory'. Not sure why...
After the way they hounded Bush about his military records, they've got some nerve calling us nuts. The only thing that makes me wonder is that birth announcement in the newspaper. I don't know how to answer those critics.
Yep. And, the really cool thing is if he really does screw up our nation, we get to say, "I never believed he was president, anyway." (el Presidente O'Broma > translation from spanish President O'Joke)
I have to wonder about the newspaper announcements too. He was a US citizen by virtue of being born to a US citizen mother. Why would they want to fake an Hawaiian birth announcement (or certificate of live birth for that matter)? What's the motive unless you're ready to say that someone, 48 years ago, knew that they would groom this no name, mixed race kid to be president and he'd need to be natural born?
Saving face.
White teenager gives birth to biracial baby in '60s. Parents want to at least make it look like a legitimate marriage and birth.
The newspaper announcement could have been placed by the grandparents to save face, or it could have been placed by the dept. of vital stats when the Certificate of Live Birth was recorded.
Keep in mind that a certificate of live birth can be issued for a child born out of the state to parents who have been residents within the last year.
According to WND, the street address in that newspaper announcement was never a residence of Zero's parents. Also, the newspapers based these ads on state-issued certification rather than hospitals. WND concludes that these birth announcements are not solid evidence of a Hawaiian birth.
That has zero to do with natural citizen birth.
