FGD: Swimming With The Sharks
Christian Roatis
October 19 2013 04:52PM
There's good news and there's bad news for tonight's 8 pm MT (CBC, SN960) trek into the Shark Tank for a bout with Western Conference leading San Jose Sharks.
The good news is embattled vet Joey MacDonald and his consistently mediocre game will take a seat tonight in favour of the guy we all thought would be the number one this year, Karri Ramo. Ramo somehow lost the starter role for a couple weeks after a decent 35 save performance in a losing effort against Washington in game 1 and was forced to watch MacDonald flop his way to a few wins in the crease since then. He'll be in tough tonight against the league's highest scoring team but I trust him against this high octane Sharks offensive much more than I do MacDonald.
The bad news is, despite an abysmal game in Anaheim and a strongly worded piece calling for his removal off the roster from our overlord Kent, 2012 World Hockey Championship Bronze Medalist Chris Butler remains in the line up tonight. So prepare for another aneurysm filled night of watching Butler play hockey for your Calgary Flames
Flames Line-Up
Via flames.com, Calgart's new lines tonight will be:
Curtis Glencross - Mikael Backlund- Lee Stempniak
TJ Galiardi - Joe Colborne - Lance Bouma
Sven Baertschi - Sean Monahan - Jiri Hudler
Tim Jackman - Ben Street - Brian McGrattan
Mark Giordano - TJ Brodie
Kris Russell - Dennis Wideman
Shane O'Brien - Chris Butler>
Karri Ramo
The lineup is the exactly same as the one they iced against Anaheim and other than Chris Butler, that's probably a good decision. Aside from the first half of the first period, this Flames group pushed the Ducks hard, at times completely controlling the play and nearly tied the game at the end as a result (Wideman would've totally scored on that second chance if the whistle hadn't blown). I would contend that the Sharks are a better team and tougher opponent than the Ducks were, but at this point this is probably as good a line-up as Calgary can ice with the personnel available to them.
The Glencross, Backlund, Stempniak trio played a little together last game and looked excellent. I haven't been too impressed with GlenX so far this year, so hopefully someone pisses him off and get's him going. Both Colborne and Bouma saw increased roles last game and that will continue tonight, teaming up with TJ Galiardi - who is facing his former team for the first time this evening. Bouma continues to mirror Brandon Prust and his promotion off the fourth line is well deserved, having been one of the most consistent Flames this year - hitting, blocking shots and playing hard, game in and game out.
Hartley thankfully also keeps together the Jiri Svenahan (so many good nicknames, so little time) line which has shown great chemistry together. If Monahan stays the season, I think it's very likely Hartley will keep him with Baertschi as a duo, rotating the third man on the line. That's just a guess but it makes sense to keep the two young studs together and letting them develop alongside each other. Also, Ben Street's time as a top line center is over as he'll center the goon line tonight, which is probably more in line with his talent level.
For some reason Chris Butler is playing tonight and Derek Smith is not. Other than that, this D group has performed admirably this year - with the exception of the odd gaffe - and I've been particularly impressed with the duo of Kris Russell and Dennis Wideman. They don't spend too much time in their own zone and do a great job moving the puck around and generating offense in the opponents end of the rink.
Joey Mac is out, Karri Ramo is in. Hallelujah. By no stretch of the imagination will this be a cakewalk for Ramo - in fact I think there's a very real possibility he gets torched - but I really dislike the way MacDonald played during his time in the crease for the Flames. Even in the games he won, I didn't think he was very good. Most of the big saves he made were directly due to a positional miscue or big rebound given up earlier that resulted in him being forced to throw whatever he had at the puck to stop it.
The Opponent
Via Fear the Fin.com:
Patrick Marleau - Logan Couture - Tyler Kennedy
Tomas Hertl - Joe Thornton - Brent Burns
Matthew Nieto - Joe Pavelski - Tommy Wingels
James Sheppard - Andrew Desjardins - Bracken Kearns
Marc-Edouard Vlasic - Justin Braun
Matt Irwin - Brad Stuart
Scott Hannan - Jason Demersbr />
Antti Niemi
The Sharks' depth at center in comparison to the Flames' is sickening and I expect
Calgary catches a bit of break tonight as San Jose will be without top defensemen Dan Boyle who's still recovering from that vicious hit from behind he took from Blues forward Max Lappiere. In fact, the Sharks blueline is looking a little thin tonight outside of Brad Stuart and Marc-Edouard Vlasic. If the Flames can apply consistent pressure on them, they should be able to generate a few quality scoring chances.
Those chances better be buried because Antti Niemi will stop pretty much everything else. He's been excellent against Calgary and I don't see why that won't continue tonight.
Sum it up
The Flames will no doubt be in tough against a true Stanley Cup contender in the Sharks, but they have played great hockey in San Jose recently and a near flawless game is what they'll need to have tonight to escape with the 2 points. Other than on defence, the Sharks have the clear advantage and on paper, this should be an easy win for San Jose.
Calgary has proved so far this season that you can scrap the paper because their relentless work ethic and commitment to the systems has the ability to even the playing surface - at times even tilt it in their favour. There'll be no promise of a win or even a point tonight, but you can sure bank on another entertaining night of Calgary Flames hockey.
October 19 2013, 09:58PM
Does Bob Hartley have any common sense? Or does he actually think Ramo didn't do a good job so he'll go with Joey?
I don't understand his reasoning sometimes.
October 19 2013, 10:00PM
Best Flames tonight are the kids. Monahan will learn alot from this experience. Let's not get to down as this is what a rebuild will look like against the elite. You can't beat good teams from the penalty box. despite giving up Ramo has not been the problem.
Train wreck
Sharks 4 Monahans 3!
October 19 2013, 10:08PM
Woo! Backlund.
October 19 2013, 10:11PM
Haha, back in it. Great pass by Monahan.
October 19 2013, 10:12PM
Wow !!! they're back ! Now play some decent defense please ....!
Pavelski and Burns are irritating. #Hardtoplayagainst Guess that's what #gritchart looks like
Can someone PLEASE cover the side of the net. Anyone
October 19 2013, 10:26PM
Another Sharks PP goal. Oh well.
Brodie should be benched the rest of the game.
This sucks for Ramo's confidence, he was beaten for 5 goals against Washington and so far 5 again tonight.
October 19 2013, 10:41PM
Wow, those sharks are good, it's almost like we were shorthanded half of the game.......... Seriously though, the boys did well, at least they did not fold when they were down 4-1 like those douche bag Canucks did twice.... WW
Can we start a petition to get Smith in for a game?!
October 19 2013, 10:46PM
Chances were 5-4 Flames in the third.
Man, the GlenX was non-factor again! Whats wrong with that guy? Brodies and Widemans very-bad-luck-helluva-game. Iam going with TJ Galiardi as a RED WARRIIR for tonight.
I think glenX is the one player that has not bought in to Hartley and the work ethic id. I can see them looking to ship his poor attitude out. Maybe those philly rumours were true. I think sutter made glenX a better player than he is. San Jose is a good team. No shame in this loss.
October 19 2013, 11:06PM
GlenX now reminds me of Iggy, but not as good.
when will this rebuild be over... I'm tired of losing!
(tongue in cheek)
Ramo is bad, that's why he is not playing. Does anybody else not see how much slides, how controlled he is, or how sloppy his positioning is. It is really bad

he does slide a lot but i think he needs a chance to work his game out on the little ice. give him 20-30 games anyway...
I didn't see the game, but couldn't fault Ramo on the replays. I really hope we stick with him. He seems to have talent. Bad luck and tough competition so far, but talent none the less.

What game were you watching? Which of the 5 goals would you say he could/should have saved. The two goals that were deflected because we are not big enough to clear out the front of the net, or the three goals he let in when the goal scorer was left all alone on the side of the net after a perfect pass. I suppose you would prefer Joey the goalie who has no future in the rebuild. I would much rather see Ramo have a body of work to judge him by than see Joey as we already know what he is.

I sincerely hope your grandmother recovers. I wish her the best.
Good luck.
Sending lots of thoughts and prayers your way.... :Hug:
just got an update from my mom a little while ago:
"daddy talked to grampa a while ago and he said the doctor told him he removed the tumor (which was cancerous) and checked all the lymph nodes...no sign of any markers in the nodes, so the oncologist is coming in tomorrow and they will probably put her on some oral chemo to make sure to get any cells that might be floating around...they've been having her do all her physical therapy and he's taking her walker up to the hospital tomorrow...she's still using the morphine, but other than that, seems to be doing better."
That there are no signs of cancer in her lymph nodes is the best news, Toni. I'll be keeping my fingers crossed that the oral chemo treatments extinguish any cancer cells floating throughout her system. I agree with the others that it is excellent the doctors are getting her up and walking and doing her physical therapy exercises so soon after surgery, even if she is on morphine. The activity will also improve her outlook on the situation.

NIFA Grant Brings Power of the Sun to Remote Arizona Community
This post is part of the Science Tuesday feature series on the USDA blog. Check back each week as we showcase stories and news from USDA's rich science and research portfolio.
A man in Arizona threw away an extension cord – and that's a big deal for some folks who live about 100 miles west of Tucson.
The 48 families who live in the Pisinemo District of the Tohono O'odham Nation reside in an area so remote that some had to get their power by stringing extension cords to a neighbor's house. Now, however, they have new solar panels to provide electricity for heating, cooling, and cooking. Read more »

Below is a guest post from the one and only Joel Klettke or, as you lady's may know him the best looking man in the world. Joel is (in my opinion) one of the best writers in the industry right now, always funny, direct and above all honest….enjoy..
From ridiculous job titles to insane experience requirements, almost no other industry has job postings more entertaining to read or patently absurd than online marketing.
We as an industry can't seem to decide whether we want to call employees "inbound marketers", "SEO's", "earned media acquisition specialists", "Fancy, prancy magic men" or any other string of bizarre descriptors. Then there are the pandering job descriptions, designed to make every company sound "fun" & "edgy" as though including the fact that you have beer on Fridays sings the siren song of "incredible company culture!" – and let us not forget the "DO EVERYTHING!" positions we all covet so badly.
After flipping through dozens of job ads in the past few days, I began to wonder – what if other industries adopted the self-depreciating absurdities we've managed to perfect?
1. Bonnybrook Middle School is hiring a Scrubbing Evangelist!
Does the thought of getting elbows-deep in sudsy mop water get your juices pumping? Are you a sanitary superhero hell bent on stopping violent grime? Did you shave your head as a child just to look more like your idol, Mr. Clean!? Have we got a once in a lifetime opportunity for you!
Bonnybrook Middle School is looking for the ultimate clean freak to join our dynamic, multi-cultural maintenance team (…)
2. St. Mary's Hospital is hiring a Surgeon/Bookkeeping Wizard!
You love to cut people open – it's been a passion since you were a child. Coincidentally, you hate nothing more than ledgers that bleed red! Now it's time to put both of those loves to work! St. Mary's is seeking a multi-talented surgeon and bookkeeper willing to roll up their sleeves and get the job done.
If you're magic with a scalpel and won't let our numbers die on the table, we want YOU!
The ideal candidate will:
- Be responsible for performing routine brain surgeries
- Act tough on wasteful spending; have an empathetic patient demeanor
- Bring meaningful experience with open heart procedures to the team
- Contribute to our growing plastic surgery offerings including but not limited to: Rhinoplasty, bust enhancement, facial reconstructions, liposuction
- Deep knowledge of QuikBooks, Microsoft Office Suite imperative
- Demonstrated experience in the separation of Siamese twins cojoined at the head will get you to the top of the list!
3. YellowPages seeks Mail Room Jedi
In a galaxy not so far away – a job opportunity so incredible, you'd swear it was (science) fiction! YellowPages is seeking someone strong with the organizational force to help us lick, stamp and sort our way to defeating the dark side!
While we won't ask you to levitate stacks of letters with your mind, you'll be responsible for racing through piles of incoming mail faster than an X-Wing in a space minefield. It's not all fun and games – we need more than a Jar-Jar Binks –we need someone who will do or do not, there is no "try".
Help us Mail Room Associate, you're our only hope!
- Wet tongue admirable, as is keen attention to detail
4. McDonald's is hiring a Client Needs Assessment & Service Delivery Associate
McDonald's seeks passionate team players to act as our first points of customer contact in a fast-paced environment. You will be required to listen carefully to customer demands, input this information into our service tills and ultimately deliver the end product to our clients in a polite and timely manner.
- 10+ years in a customer service role; food industry experience will be given preference
- Experience in handling large sums of money; familiarity with modern investment banking techniques a plus
- A keen memory is tantamount. You will be expected to remember to ask "Coke to drink?" and "Would you like fries with that?" while also maintaining a working memory of the customer's order.

5. Yahoo is hiring a War-Ready Organizational Sherpa
Does the thought of working for an eternal underdog fire up your loins? Do you jump out of bed every morning thinking to yourself, "I can't wait to bail out a hopeless business today!?" If you love to chew ass and kick bubblegum, well, we can't afford any more bubblegum.
Yahoo is looking for our next compadre-in-command. As the CEO (or as we prefer, Chief EXCITEMENT Officer), you'll have the unenviable job of trying to turn a massive barge around with a canoe paddle.
Salary dependent on how easy we think it will be to scapegoat you when this kamikaze mission finally ends in blazes of glory.
6. Digital Agency With "Click/Web/Rank" In The Name is hiring for Incredibly Vague Position!
Can you relentlessly bash a keyword for hours and hours on end? Got a passion for sitting in a chair, basking in the glow of a monitor, tweeting while listening to German house music?
Do you have an over-inflated sense of self-importance that you can spin into countless blog posts?! Are you a grand dragon master of all things internet?
Join our small team of entrepreneurial-minded ninjas! We're not like other digital agencies because we're small and fun and like beer and respect you as a person! You'll do some paid stuff! And some link building! You might audit a site or something, we're not entirely sure!
SWEET MERCY: We have a Foosball table AND a Playstation!!! WORK/LIFE BALANCE! CEO'S MOM MAKES US BROWNBAG LUNCHES! WORK IN A CONDO!
– Compensation: $26,500 a year. No benefits.

By PATSY STODDARDEditor
Well, Happy New Year. You may think I'm a couple of weeks late in wishing our readers a Happy New Year, but it's just one of those things I meant to do, but didn't get around to it. But, the year is still young. I really wasn't thinking too much about those New Year's resolutions and all that propaganda, but then in church the other day, they had to get off on this subject of setting goals and trying to be a better person and making the world a better place and they went on and on.
Well, then I decided the idea might have some merit, so I started to think and wonder if I should be taking this more seriously so I thought I could probably make some improvements here and there.
For the past month or more, it seems like it started at Thanksgiving time. I just went on this eating binge. I stopped eating my oatmeal for breakfast and just started eating left over pumpkin pie for breakfast instead.
Since I like to Christmas shop and felt like a bit of a Santa, it didn't feel unusual, when my lunch became milk and cookies. I make very good cookies and several people gave us cookies and I had to sample all of those so a milk and cookie diet was very cost effective too.
For dinner, there were several holiday parties to attend and I was first in line at the buffet table for most of those.
So, OK, I'm off the cookies, now, I still drink milk. I am eating my oatmeal again for breakfast. I know these sound like small things, but for me, they are some giant steps.
I am having sandwiches again for lunch, or meat and cheese, as Corey put us all on the meat and cheese diet about a year ago. We slipped up there during the holidays, but now it would seem we are back on track.
So, my eating is much healthier now, although I do backslide now and again, but I think that's OK, going cold turkey off the treats, can make you very irritable.
For the exercise part of New Year's resolutions, because it always seems like they go together, diet and exercise; I am back out on the track. I try to walk around the track while I wait for my son to get out of basketball each evening.
This worked really well, during football season and early fall. But, my track is now filled with snow. This wasn't an obstacle though. I love snow. I think it's great fun to walk through snow. Once I broke the trail around the track once, it wasn't half bad trudging in the snow. It's a way better work out than walking on clear ground. So you can't let winter weather be a deterent to getting some exercise and some fresh air. It's really very invigorating being outdoors in the winter. You have to prepare and dress for it. Warm coat, hat, boots, gloves and the works.
Well, it might not sound like much to you, oatmeal for breakfast and a little cold weather exercise. But, it's a start, a small step. Small steps and taking just a little time to work on ourselves can lead to big improvements.
I was folding laundry last night and this is a mundane chore so I flipped on the TV and there was this show called the Biggest Loser. I had never seen it before. I'm not much of a TV watcher, I usually read if I have a spare minute or two. But, when I read and fold laundry at the same time, no one gets their right clothes in the right drawer, so I watched the Biggest Loser. Wow, some of these people weighed a lot. It was pretty amazing. But, they are trying to lose weight, trying to make their lives better. One man lost 30 pounds in one week. That was truly amazing to me. That is a lot of weight.
I've never been able to lose weight, but maybe I've never really tried; milk and cookies taste too good. But, wow, these people were really trying. It was great.
I guess we just need to get motivated. Everyone is so different, some of us are motivated and some of us just don't seem to care about physical fitness and those things. I have one son that hit the gym every day while he was here. Now he is in the Fiji Islands on a church mission and the other day in an email he said he was 200 pounds and he doesn't really watch what he eats. The missionaries just eat whatever is put in front of them and they are glad to have it. So, I guess he'll have some work to do next year when he gets back.
Whatever your goals are for this year, I wish you good luck in reaching and attaining them. Just remember start small and work into it. Remember you can have some success every day in your life as you strive to reach your goals.

Skip to comments.Best of Biden, swearing-in edition: Spread your legs youre going to be frisked
Posted on 01/03/2013 1:16:03 PM PST by Nachum
WASHINGTON Vice President Joe Biden was in rare form Thursday morning as he held a mock swearing-in session for the senators of the 113th Congress. In case you missed this hour of must-see TV, weve recapped Bidens best comments.
1) Spread your legs your going to be frisked, Biden said to North Dakota newest senator, Democratic Heidi Heitkamp, and her family, after the photographer suggested they drop your hands to the side.
You say that to somebody from North Dakota, they think its a frisk, Biden told the photographer.
(Excerpt) Read more at dailycaller.com ...
The list, Ping
Let me know if you would like to be on or off the ping list
I saw a couple of Biden where it Really looked like he was hitting on the Wives (Or Daughters)...very weird. But what do you expect from a guy who sat with a biker chick on his lap copping a feel.....
Joe Biden, living proof you can have a brain tumor without a brain.
A great moment for the newbies, ruined by Butthead Biden.
What's it like to get a perpetual pass on your mouth, Joe?
Just what I look for in a Vice-President: Alcoholic dementia.
Frisky Joe Bidet.
I bet the "I swear to uphold the Constitution part "
probably really gets them laughing...
Well, there's something that won't get Letterman's and Conan's joke writers in gear. Imagine if it was a republican that said that — they'd still be writing jokes a year from now!
She would have endeared herself to millions if she had just said in a firm voice, "How dare you say that! I would expect the vice-president of the United States of America to act like a gentleman," and then smacked him as hard as she could.
Of course, all the lib "women's rights" women would have totally trashed her.
Joey, has never left junior high.
As an adult, he is just vulgar and inappropriate.
Ain't he, though? The man is the consummate ass.
I wish her husband had been there, and had just hauled up and slugged him.
I'm not a violent person, and it bothers me that this administration has managed to get me to the point where I want someone to punch both my President and my Vice President.
So Joe is the go-to expert on North Dakota now? Unbelievable. I think this man's brain died years ago and all we hear now are the plugs talking.
"Spread your legs"??? Patently offensive, sexist, an insult to every American woman! It's outrageous that an elected official would.... What? He's a Democrat? Oh. Never mind....
Joe's not just a tool. He's a power tool.
He has the most honest gaffs that allow us to study the liberal mindset and he doesn't even realize it. Joe is the gift that keeps on giving.
Thoroughly CLASSLESS AZZHOLE!!!
The Crew currently in charge of this once great country can always take vulgarity to a new low.
Spread your legs carries rather graphic and demonstrative implications for women more so than men
Just speaking for myself its a phrase ive only used with gals ive known for a while
At first I thought this had to be satire.
God have mercy on us, how far this country and its so-called leaders have fallen. And the next four years haven't even officially begun yet....
We are thinking the same. I thought Bubba was a pig, but Biden is a bigger pig.
It's just another example of the Progressive/Liberal War on Women.
After the end of this administration, and if country still exits with any freedom at all, someone will write a coffee table book (or bathroom-reading book) which lists and discusses Joe's comments. This will be similar to the lists of Yogi Berra's expressions. The main difference in the two will be that Yogi's remarks were and are hysterically funny, but Old Joe's remarks are and will always be funny due to the fact that they are hysterically pathetic.
This is very offensive and uses very bad language, Joe Biden to the inch.

Summer year round
"I love these. I have a pair in orange from Michael Kors and these are just as cute and trendy for the summer, which for me is year round! They do run a little shorter than expected. I usually wear an 8.5 and got these in a 9 and they just made the cut."

So cute!
"These sandals a really really cute. A little expensive for flip flops but they're not cheap looking, so I guess you get what you pay for. They do run a bit short. They JUST fit... I'm glad I got a 6 instead of a 5. If you're in between sizes, go to the next size for sure. They're also a bit narrow... not for fat feet. But overall, I'm happy with this purchase."

Skip to comments.House GOP split over forging ahead on immigration this year
Posted on 01/31/2014 7:58:35 AM PST by Cincinatus' Wife
CAMBRIDGE, Md. House Republicans meeting privately at their retreat on Thursday were split on whether the leadership should forge ahead with immigration legislation this year, according to people in the room.
After Speaker John Boehner (R-Ohio) opened the floor to members following his release of leaderships principles for immigration reform, dozens of members stood up to speak, and the responses fell into four broad categories, said Rep. Mario Diaz-Balart (Fla.), a leading Republican advocate for immigration reform.
Some conservative lawmakers, like immigration reform foe Rep. Steve King (R-Iowa), said the party should do nothing. Others like Diaz-Balart and Rep. Paul Ryan (R-Wis.) offered full support for the leadership principles and a green light for moving on to legislation.
But a large contingent of members stood up to urge caution and voiced concerns not so much with the substance of the principles as with the timing of pushing immigration reform in an election year and under a Democratic president they dont trust to enforce the law.
The principles back legal status for undocumented immigrants but only after they have met certain requirements and unspecified enforcement triggers have been put in place. Boehner said the standards were as far as we are willing to go, and then opened up the floor to members, allowing them one minute each to weigh in on the proposal.
Distrust of President Obama, Diaz-Balart said in a phone interview, was the biggest issue that Republicans raised.
I think we can get there, but thats the biggest challenge, he said. We got a lot [of pushback] on the timing and a lot on the trust issue.
If we cant give people confidence that its enforceable, Diaz-Balart added, then we have a serious problem.
The leadership principles sought to head off that concern.
Faced with a consistent pattern of administrations of both parties only selectively enforcing our nations immigration laws, we must enact reform that ensures that a president cannot unilaterally stop immigration enforcement, the principles state.
And toward the end of the closed-door meeting, the chairman of the Judiciary Committee, Rep. Bob Goodlatte (R-Va.), stood up to argue that legislation could be written in such a way to ensure enforcement and that Congress would have other options if an administration fell short, Diaz-Balart said.
Several Republicans in the room said the response from the rank-and-file was not surprising and that the people who stood up to voice concerns were predictable.
Boehner emphasized in the meeting that no decisions had been made about whether to move forward on legislation, and the leaders are likely to continue talking and working to build support in the coming weeks.
Earlier on Thursday, the House GOP campaign chief, Rep. Greg Walden (Ore.), said that any floor vote on immigration legislation was probably months out and would therefore come after primary election deadlines that are worrying some lawmakers.
While Diaz-Balart had previously hoped to act earlier in the year, he said Thursday, I dont think things are ready to move quicker than that.
In the one-page blueprint, House Republicans explicitly rule out a special path to citizenship, but they say that it is in the nations interest for people who entered the country illegally to come forward and register with the government without fear of deportation.
Our national and economic security depend on requiring people who are living and working here illegally to come forward and get right with the law, the GOP standards say. There will be no special path to citizenship for individuals who broke our nations immigration laws that would be unfair to those immigrants who have played by the rules and harmful to promoting the rule of law.
Rather, these persons could live legally and without fear in the U.S., but only if they were willing to admit their culpability, pass rigorous background checks, pay significant fines and back taxes, develop proficiency in English and American civics, and be able to support themselves and their families (without access to public benefits).
The Republicans say that criminals, gang members and sex offenders would not be eligible for legal status.
Finally, none of this can happen before specific enforcement triggers have been implemented to fulfill our promise to the American people that from here on, our immigration laws will indeed be enforced, the principles state.
The Republicans do not say what specific triggers must be meant.
Children who were brought into the country illegally through no fault of their own by their parents would be eligible for legal residence and citizenship.
The document also calls for strengthened border and interior security, a biometric visa-tracking system, a new E-Verify system for employers, reforms to the high-skilled visa system and a temporary worker program.
The only way to ensure the trustworthiness of today's lawmakers in both parties is to make them directly accountable to the people. And I do not mean at the ballot box. I do mean physically accountable.
As in drag-them-out-of-their-houses-and-throw-them-in-the-klink accountable.
But since that can never happen its best to assume that there will be no law made we can trust them to enforce. They are liars and opportunists - almost every one.
How nice it would be if the Republican Base had some political representation in DC.....
Seems Boner & McSurrender are focused like a laser on snatching defeat from the jaws of victory. ObamaCare should be the focus as it is a winner. For example, my immigrant bro-in-law got his $235/month health insurance canceld by Obama. The Obama equivalent is $409/month.
Amnesty is a loser for the Repubs. You know if it would help the Repubs, the Dems would be fighting it tooth and nail...and probably have already laid mine fields, electric fences and the TSA along the Border.
My (legal) immigrant family members resent any Amnestry (or freebies) for illegals.
Can only hope Boner and McSurrender are getting well paid to betray the Repub Party Base.
This only encourages people to come to the USA and have children born here INTO CITIZENSHIP for a better life for their children.
Essentially you are going to have a "skip" generation but it will not matter with the rampant voter fraud.
Besides, you know Obama via Executive Order or via Dem political operatives now filling Federal Judge spots, will not enforce anything they do not like.
So why make new laws for they to ignore?
Might as well be N.Chamberlain going back to Germany for another treaty with A.Hitler. Wow! I bring back yet another worthless piece of paper!
Every proposed requirement in that article is window dressing meant to pacify voters then be ignored once the bill is passed. The so called triggers will be watered down or eliminated in the conference committee. The Senate will have a say in the bill and their version won't look at all like the House version.
Anyone who has confidence in the judicial and political systems in this country anymore is a fool.
There are already enough illegals here that have had American babies who when they get older will vote Democrat. We have already lost. The Republicans are just trying to speed up the timeline.
First: What was your first CLUE.
Second: When did that ever stop you guys from doing utterly despicable things, when your calculations revealed that it will benefit you and your inner circle.
Preserving your individual fiefdoms, safely embedded in the Repub Party, is your PRIMARY CONCERN.
We are supposed to be satisfied with the assumption that as long as you (individual Senate-Rat, Congress-Critter) survive and prosper in your Republican Nest, Then America Traditional Values will be served.
You don't trust the Adi ministration? I don't trust them either, NOR YOU!
ANYTHING they send to the Senate will be chopped up and the joint committee will come out with the Gang of 8's plan.
As Rush Limbaugh warned yesterday: If the House passes amnesty this year, the GOP will lose the House.
Even Rush wondered why the GOPelites are so bent on committing mass political party suicide. The only possible answer seemed to be that the old timers who will be retiring soon already have high-paying gigs lined up with many of those represented by the Chamber of Commerce, etc. — if they can get amnesty passed.
you can't have a second class citizen with no voting rights. Some uber liberal closet commie judge will see to mandating citizenship.
remember law school professors only teach from the faaaaar left.
Scouts Out! Cavalry Ho!
More evidence that we need to pour it on to our reps to make them understand that we are watching their every move and know which votes count and which are just for show.
Just sent to our Congressman:
We DO NOT WANT the GOP to waste any time on crafting some immigration legislation. We expect to see work on repealing 0bamacare, and budget cutting, deficit reduction, the whole belt-tightening exercise.
There is nothing to be gained, even from a political perspective, to work with the administration and/or Senate on agreeing to easing of immigration law. CLOSE THE BORDERS. DEPORT THE ILLEGALS. There are not enough jobs, as it is, for Americans. We cannot afford more social programs, more bureaucracy, any more resources going toward the "immigration" bleeding hearts causes.
Please vote against any legislation that is intended to be "immigration reform".
Thank you.
It could be a conservative judge who would rule that way. You can't create a permanent underclass by granting a group of people permanent resident class while denying them an equal opportunity to seek naturalization. This would be akin to creating a slave class.
Any Republican that claims they support amnesty without citizenship is either an idiot or a liar. Or maybe a lying idiot.
Does anyone know why it's all of a sudden so important to do anything about immigration, specifically relating to illegals from Mexico?
We did not want Obamacare, and you Neo-Democrat RINOs gave it to us anyway, and we are the worse for it.
We DO want yall to enforce existing Federal Border Laws.
WE DO NOT WANT IMMIGRATION REFORM ! Yall gave us that in 1986, and we are the worse for it!
Now yall say that we need to cave in this year to Obama on Immigration Reform. Why this perversion to betray us!?
This is the same GEE OH PEE pablum that you Neo-Democrat RINOs have been always been feeding to the gullible, low information voters.
McCain, McConnell, Cornyn, Boehner, Cantor, and Ryan are always waiting for massive support from the Public before they even consider doing a pitched battle with the enemy.
The enemy is yall caving in to Obama! Just enforce existing Border Laws!
Yall go on TV to publicly beat yalls chests, and then reach across the aisle to yalls good friends in order to get something done.
You Neo-Democrat RINOs will never lead, will always wait for a groundswell of Public discontent before risking incurring the wrath of their most dreaded enemy: The Leftstream Media.
Note to all the Congressional RINO leaders: We gave yall in 2010 what yall said yall were waiting for - - - - The Massive TEA Party Rebellion, and yall fought us every step of the way, and are fighting us now more than ever!
We gave yall the support that yall asked for and yall betrayed us!
Betray us once, shame on you. Betray us twice, shame on us!
BTW, we have long memories, and just so yall know, RINO SEASON IS NOW OPEN AND THERE ARE NO BAG LIMITS !
There is that word again, like nails on a chalkboard.
Nice to confirm where the GOP-e is taking us.
The Rats have to laughing their asses off. They are staring into the abyss of an epic beat down in November, and the GOP is going to save them by doing THE ONE THING guaranteed to infuriate the base and make them stay home.
You want enforcement? Then allow state and private prosecutions of offender.
These people will delay a vote on this until after the elections. Don't fall for it!
Well, that's why they call 'em the Stupid Party. This will cause/is causing a Civil War within the GOP and will mean the end of the GOP.
So be it.
I agree!
There's only one answer. The invaders self-deport, or they're never allowed in the US again. Unfair competition is ended with tariffs. Anyone who abets them with jobs or providing government services gets fined and given a criminal record. Let the free marketplace sort out matching US citizens with employment opportunities.
Yeah. I can barely contain my rage.
This was the major reason I quit registering Republican in 06.
I was a little kid in Chicago handing out Goldwater literature, was a Young Republican for Nixon, voted for Ford in my first election and and voted GOP ever since. It's getting harder and harder. I stood in the voting booth for 10 minutes before I could force myself to pull the lever for McCain. I almost stayed home last time. If they pull this crap, I will stay home, it's pointless.
Boehner, Cantor and Ryan do not represent us. They represent those trying to impoverish and destroy us.
They are the enemy.
How many amnesties do we have to have before the immigration laws are enforced ??
Are work visas even issued, anymore? Or, do we just open the gate and hand out EBT cards as they're passing through?
Sample Letter for US Representatives:
Dear Honorable US Representative ...
Sir, I am extremely upset with this latest sham amnesty immigration proposals the US House of Representatives is currently considering.
Words cannot express my anger at the utter foolishness of these proposals. Rewarding criminal behavior encourages more criminal behavior. People cannot begin their careers in America by breaking the law. Further, it hurts minimum wage American workers by causing them to compete with millions of foreign workers. I am dismayed at those in Congress who lack the understanding of this critical issue to our nation.
I like most Americans are in favor of legal immigration for those who are willing to learn our language, culture, and invest the time and money required to become a U.S. citizen - but not for those who willfully break on our laws, spit on our country, demand benefits, and are not willing to go through proper channels to become an American citizen.
What is the solution? It won't be easy because we didn't get into this situation overnight. I believe we need to do the following immediately:
1) Secure our borders
2) Enforce existing law
3) Not allow any amnesty provisions of any kind
4) Improve our visa system
5) Prosecute and fine those businesses which knowingly employ illegal workers
6) Give law enforcement officials the necessary resources and authority to combat illegal immigration
7) Deport illegal aliens violating the law after being fingerprinted, photographed, iris scanned, charged with a felony, and their information placed in a national database.
8) Send a bill for deportation/prison costs to the embassy of the illegal immigrants national origin.
9) 2nd time and thereafter repeat offenses by illegal aliens should be sent to work prison camps for a maximum of 6 months - building the southern fence/wall.
10) Seize and liquidate all assets from illegal aliens and use the proceeds for our military and local law enforcement.
11) Must not give illegal immigrants government welfare benefits of any kind, including Social Security
12) Designate English as our national language
13) Change the 14th Amendment regarding birthright citizenship for the children of illegal immigrants
14) Mandatory proof of citizenship for voting
15) Mandatory proof of legal status for DL or ANY government issued ID or benefits card
16) Put pressure on the Mexican government and other nations to reduce illegal immigration to America.
17) Encourage only legal immigration and citizenship to for those wanting to become Americans.
These ENFORCED changes would strengthen America greatly.
Please consider voting against any illegal immigration amnesty bills should they come before the full House floor.
Sincerely and respectfully,
This news is actually interesting in the "why is the GOP doing this" perspective. The consensus, that I tend to agree with, is that immigration reform is suicidal for the GOP.
But most Americans don't trust Obama. The issue being presented here is one of ... not trusting Obama. I wonder if the GOP is trying to thread a needle here: stop immigration reform and take it off the table in a way that neutralizes it as a political issue, by using it as a weapon to highlight Obama's untrustfullness ...
What will the very hated, and self-servingly EXEMPT
treasonous Congress decide this time?
"physically accountable " works for me. While there might not be a direct way to jail an incompetent, lying, politician when he gets back home it is indeed possible to put enough fear into his double-dealing butt so that he doesn't want to come back home. Start off with sueing them for non-performance and work it up from there. Make their mizzerable lives absolutely difficult.
Hmmmm...not trust Obama!
Well, that's not a revelation - it's a fact.
Anyway, the only way to structure this relates to securing the border with a non-political committee (if that is even possible) to perform the certification that the border is secure.
There are many wonderful people that I've meet - illegals from Mexico, but the fact remains that they need to go back home and apply to immigrate here - if that is their wish. We have already got a huge issue with low skilled workers not being able to find full-time, long term employment - adding millions to the lower end would be a disaster for them and down the line for all of us.
From the article: "But a large contingent of members stood up to urge caution and voiced concerns not so much with the substance of the principles as with the timing of pushing immigration reform in an election year and under a Democratic president they dont trust to enforce the law."
Or said another way, the time isn't perfect for shoving it down our throats.
I told my Congressman that if he caves on Amnesty, I will vote for the democrat just to make sure he gets tossed out in November. Then I will run for his seat in 2016.
Understandable----b/c amnesty is Obamacare w/ Spanish subtitles.
So instead of working full time to repeal CommieCare, this traitor clown Boner wants to aid and abet an invasion of historic proportions?
Why does anyone call this guy a "Republican" anymore?
If they don't do any of these things, will you throw them out? I don't believe you will. All we will here is the same old horse sh!t about how we can't separate families just because one member had a minor brush with the law. Or how about "We can't deport them for being on welfare because of a disability, or a run of bad luck, or maybe the poor economy. What about the poor children?".
The Republicans say that criminals, gang members and sex offenders would not be eligible for legal status.
But they won't register anyways and the government won't look for them or throw them out.
The Republican Party sends me frequent emails, asking for money. I reply back saying ObamaCare is a winning issue but that Amnesty is a losing issue and I give a few reasons why.
After my first or 2nd reply, all my replies since have been called "spam" by them and rejected.
They still send money request emails though.
But if they view my expressing opposition to Amnesty as "spam", then I will indicate to my email settings that their emails are spam.
"Welcome to the One Party Fascist State where no Party represents the Middle Class/Conservatives/Republican Base.
Rather, these persons could live legally and without fear in the U.S., but only if they were willing to admit their culpability, pass rigorous background checks, pay significant fines and back taxes, develop proficiency in English and American civics, and be able to support themselves and their families (without access to public benefits).
These jokers truly think we are stupid.
A perfect storm brewing for a wipeout of Democrats in the mid-terms and the idiot RINOs are playing with amnesty instead.
You are giving the GOP too much credit.
It made a lot of sense. There has to be a reason for the GOPe idiocy besides just being stupid.
I hope the Tea Party members were listening.

Eastman Kodak Co. Wednesday evening said it has accepted an $830 million financing offer from a group of bondholders that replaces a $793 million package announced Nov. 12.
As with the earlier commitment, the new financing is contingent on the sale of Kodak's digital imaging patent portfolio for no less than $500 million.
The new offer came from 10 institutional investors that make up the steering committee of the Second Lien Noteholders Committee, Kodak said. Each holds senior secured notes. All other holders of the notes, including the investors that extended the Nov. 12 package, will be able to participate in the new commitment.
"We are pleased that these existing creditors have come forward with a new proposal that offers better terms and enables Kodak to further accelerate its momentum to emergence (from Chapter 11) in the first half of 2013," said Antonio Perez, chairman and CEO. "The improved financing commitment provides a longer maturity, lower fees and pricing, and greater liquidity than our previously announced commitment. This is a vote of confidence in the future of our company."
The new offer also contains provisions allowing for a conversion of up to $630 million of the loans upon Kodak's emergence from bankruptcy into permanent exit financing due five years after emergence. To obtain this financing, Kodak would need to finalize a reorganization plan by Sept. 30, 2013, resolve its U.K. pension obligations, and complete at least a portion of the sales of its Document Imaging and Personalized Imaging businesses.
The new financing commitment announced Wednesday is subject to Bankruptcy Court approval.

Welcome 2013. This is a year full of opportunity and promise, especially if we can finally let go of clutter. If organizing clutter was one of your resolutions, you're not alone. It's certainly one of mine, and there are LOTS of ideas out there for getting it done.
Here's to Finally Organizing your Clutter in 2013
It's daunting, isn't it? You look at all the new stuff the holidays brought into your home and you wonder how on Earth you'll ever find a place for it all! Then you look at what you already had in your home and think "Why am I keeping all of this stuff?" This is a great time to start "Spring Cleaning." Even if you have snow on the ground, it's still a perfect opportunity to play IN/OUT.
Where to start Organizing?
I'd start with setting some priorities. Where do you need clarity in your life? Some of us need to clear physical clutter from our households:
- junk drawers
- closets
- basements
- storage lockers
- toy boxes
- wardrobes
- medicine cabinets
And some of us need to clear clutter from our mind:
- doubt
- regret
- fear
- worry
- resent
- envy
- indulgence
And then there's the clutter affecting our health, like too much:
- sugar
- caffeine
- fat
- pre-processed
- GMOs
- unpronounceable chemicals
Yup. There's a lot to sabotage our organizing efforts, and sometimes it's not where you expect it (like your coffee cup). So you need to figure out what's affecting you, and set some realistic goals. It's NOT realistic to say you'll cut out all sugar. It IS realistic to say you'll only use 1 tablespoon of sugar in your coffee instead of getting the standard "double-double". A blanket statement, such as "I'm not going to worry about anything this year" sets you up for disappointment (and further mental clutter). Try accepting you'll worry, but find a way of dealing with it, like practicing deep breaths, or weekly yoga sessions.
Not Just Clutter Goals
As for cleaning the basement, that IS one of my goals in 2013. Will and I tackle this every couple of months when we have a few spare hours without the kids around. We usually remove several bags and boxes of stuff at a time, but next time we go down there whatever we left behind has bred MORE. How does that happen anyway?
We usually set a time limit on this project so we don't exhaust ourselves. If left alone while on one of my Virgo streaks, I might go an entire day purging and hauling without stopping to eat. We also have a space limit…we can only fit so many bags and boxes in our car if we plan to take it all to a donation drop-off box. We do sometimes wait for a charity pick-up drive, but sometimes I just want it OUT before I change my mind.
Most importantly, we focus on the big picture. Our goal is to live in this space, not just have it as a stuff cemetery. We want to put office space and a guest area in the basement, and that's not going to happen if I don't release my emotions from these belongings.
Getting My House AND Body In Order
Besides the house, I also need to organize my health. I'm only 35, but I feel older. I need to make sure I'm not adding unnecessary food into my diet. If it doesn't nourish my mind or body, I shouldn't eat it. So while I'm not cutting out all sugar/fat/caffeine, I'm committed to being more mindful of what I chose to eat. I've also got to find a way to work some level of fitness into my lifestyle.
One of my Favourite Christmas Gifts
Will gave me a neat little gadget (we love gadets around here). It's called a FitBit One. It's essentially an amped up pedometer. It counts my steps, as well as flights of stairs. It also monitors my sleep, and helps give me an overview of how active I've been in a day. Seeing the results is sobering…I'm far too sedentary. My fitness goal is to work my way towards 10,000 steps in a day. I won't hit that mark daily having an office job, but I can aim for at least 5,000 to start. That's a reasonable goal.
Other Resources for Organizing Clutter
I follow a number of other blogs about organizing and hoarding. Here are some great resources for finding inspiration to get yourself organized this year. Don't forget to leave your comments about your resolutions, and we'll work together to stick to our plans.
Cleanliness is Next to What Now?

Ask Anna: cleaning, organizing, decorating
Disclaimer: I was not requested by FitBit to review their product, and I have not received any compensation by them. I simply loved this gift and thought I'd share in case anyone else has a similar fitness goal for 2013.

Do not confuse the flavor of licorice with that of anise, which is not related and is quite different when tasted side by side. Licorice has been used for everything from cough remedies to ulcer cures. The root imparts a very characteristic flavor and is surprisingly sweet. It contains glycyrrhizin, a substance 10 times sweeter than sugar, and is often added to chocolate to enhance sweetness.

4. Isla Fisher is wearing Current/Elliott (over her head). We're happy to see she's taking our advice on the blue jeans/red shoes combo though!
5. BLK DNM teamed up with Purple Magazine's notorious Olivier Zahm for a photo exhibition currently on display at BLK DNM's NYC shop at 237 Lafayette St. We'll looking forward to seeing it this week!
