This event has ended! We look forward to seeing you next year!
The fabulous people at Roc (Penguin) are sponsoring this giveaway. They are giving away 5 sets of the Clockwork Empire books by Steven Harper. This is The Doomsday Vault (my review) and The Impossible Cube (my review). This means there will be 5 winners and each winner gets BOTH books. Pretty awesome, right? I LOVED these books! (Please note that I am not responsible for the shipping of these items and will not be held responsible if they do not arrive or arrive damaged. However, please feel free to contact me if you do not receive them and I will look into the matter and do my best to assure they do arrive.)
Rules: Giveaway has ended
This is only open to US addresses. If you are international but have someone in the US who can provide their address you are welcome to participate. I apologize that we cannot provide shipping outside the US.
You must be 13 or older to accept these winnings.
This ends on May 13th at 11:29 EST
The challenge for you is one of two things. You pick which one you would like to do. Or you may do both and get two entries instead of the just one.
The books featured for the prize are The Doomsday Vault and The Impossible Cube. In the books inventions play a very big part. When people in this world are infected with the Clockwork Plague they can become crazy smart and invent some insane things. For this challenge describe something you would like to invent. It does not have to be steampunk-like. There are no limits. (Meaning it doesn't have to be realistic. It could be a time machine, a way to stop time, a flying contraption… anything.) In a comment do your very best to describe this item in the best detail possible. You may also create a blog post for your entry if you would like. Remember to leave a way to contact you in the comments! (Email or twitter)
Because I love Steampunk fashion so much I would love to see some items YOU love that are Steampunk themed. Post pictures on your blog or make a pinboard on pinterest and link me to it in a comment. Please be sure to have the source listed if you post on your blog. (If you don't have a blog or pinterest you may post on facebook as long as I can see it.) Remember to leave a way to contact you in the comments! (Email or twitter)
Because I want to see some effort put into the entries I will pick a winner each for the most creative invention from Challenge One and the most creative from Challenge Two. The other 3 winners will be randomly selected from the remaining entries. Obviously you can only win once.
Thanks so much for stopping by the Parasol Parade! Be sure to stop by all the other fantastic booths listed below. Or by checking out the Carnival Map which makes it even more fun because it'll feel more like a carnival!

Skip to comments.Carney denies people misled on keeping healthcare coverage
Posted on 10/29/2013 12:10:06 PM PDT by tellw
White House press secretary Jay Carney on Tuesday denied President Obama had misled the public when he said that consumers could keep their health insurance plans after the passage of the Affordable Care Act.
Carney said that consumers who "had a plan the day before the Affordable Care Act passed and signed into law" and who had not either dropped their coverage or "been thrown off the plan" by their insurance companies were "grandfathered in and can keep that plan."
"If you've kept it, you can keep it forever, as long as your insurer offers it," Carney said.
(Excerpt) Read more at thehill.com ...
The dishonest rub...since carriers are now dropping those plans because ACA made them illegal.
The list, Ping
Let me know if you would like to be on or off the ping list
I can't imagine a tougher job than being a public affairs spokesman for a serial liar like Obama.
He says Americans are just stupid.... well... they elected Obama twice...he may have something there
How does he look in the mirror and not be ashamed?
I know his job is to cover for the president but he is way over the top. Maybe he gets paid a large sum of money to continue the lie.
I can't think of a single time he hasn't gotten up to that podium and lied through his teeth with a straight face.
You gotta wonder if they lie to us like this on a hourly basis, how do they treat their family memebers and friends?
"Everyone knows there are feigning spells when the President speaks," said a White House spokespuke.
You cannot expect honesty from leftists
A question to ponder:
What should we do with Carney following CW-II?
(Of course, he should not be allowed to escape the country. We will want him for something very very special.)
the bigger the lie the more people will believe it
Or so they think....
But but but but...
...democrat house of reprehensibles member "Steny" Hoyer has already admitted that Obama lied...
Obama is a post modernist. There is no morality or truth in his view of the world...ergo there is no shame.
Put him on a leash in a loincloth.
...and yet they re-elect him anyway. So it doesn't matter does it?
For anyone remotely familiar with how these things worked, Obama's lies were just as preposterous as if he'd promised: "If you like today's weather, then you can keep it that way".
And, of course, the employer mandate was put off because anyone remotely familiar with how that works knows that it will be far worse, and impact several times more people than implementation of the individual mandate.
But I'm not completely dismissing the possibility that Obama believed what he was saying. He's that much of an ignoramus on most subjects, except on how to be a Con Man and shameless liar.
"If you've kept it, you can keep it forever, as long as your insurer offers it," Carney said.
And no one - not one "reporter" - asked "what happens if the ACA makes my insurance company drop my plan?"
Whose fault is it that I lose the insurance plan I want to keep forever? The insurance company?
I think he should be given a nightly talk show on which he is only allowed to have Tea Party members as guests.
Each show will end with a three round boxing match between Carney and the guest.
More like Hair Gerbil
"If you've kept it, you can keep it forever, as long as your insurer offers it..."
Of course, any change, however slight, causes you to lose the grandfather status, so Insurance companies will drop all the plans as they come up for renewal.
It is getting harder to tell satire from real stories.
excellent comment!!!
Why is there even a "press secretary"?
We all know that his/her job is to spin and lie and demagogue and deflect and protect the president, no matter who he is.
This daily ritual of asking questions of a "representative" of the president, is a complete farce, so, why continue with the stupidity?
I also in turn find it difficult to remain civil and polite in face of such dishonest and contemptuous punks.
Here's an bit from what Ann Barnhardt posted yesterday:
"Okay. This all goes to my screaming rants that people are responsible for their government. Im getting really sick of people acting all indignant and acting like theyre being ambushed by this whole ObamaCare thing.
Er my gawsh, yall! My insurance bill just quadrupled. Im serious you guys!
Well, no kidding. What in the blue firey blazes did you expect? Lets see. Insurance is risk pooling. A bunch of people get together and pay a small amount of money into a pool, and then when one of the people has an adverse event happen to them, the frequency of which can be broadly statistically predicted, then the pool pays out to the unlucky person who had the adverse event happen to them.
Now lets see. From DAY FLIPPING ONE the Obama regime has been saying that mean old insurance companies will not be able to turn away customers with pre-existing conditions in other words, insurance companies will have to let people JOIN THE RISK POOL AFTER THE RISK EVENT HAS ALREADY HAPPENED.
Um, yeah. That is the total, complete destruction of the entire insurance paradigm. This isnt my opinion. This is a mathematical fact an extremely simple and elementary mathematical fact. If people who have already had the adverse risk event happen to them must be allowed into the risk pool, then it is no longer a risk pool. It is a wealth redistribution scam that victimizes the TOTAL, COMPLETE MORONS who enter and pay into the pool without already having had the risk event happen to them.
How can a nation of 330 million people, iniquitous gutter republic though it may be, not understand this? How can a nation of 330 million people have their tyrannical regime tell them in no uncertain terms that the entire insurance paradigm is going to be destroyed by said regime, and then when it happens everyone acts all shocked?
Oh, and then add onto that the fact that ObamaCare requires insurance to cover all kinds of bee-ess preventative and elective services. Well, if every single person in a risk pool is guaranteed to have a claim because the coverage is no longer for catastrophes, but also for purely non-emergent, elective pseudomedicine and outright quackery, then what do you expect? The pool has to collect more than it pays out. Period."
I've always thought that this guy has the perfect last name to be Obama's spokesperson. Just like the mythical carney out in front of the carnival selling lies to the public to get them into the tent. Next thing Carney will be telling us about will be the man eating chicken or the pickled punk. America are the rubes....
That's like peeing on my leg and telling me that it's raining.
The people weren't misled. They were lied to.
Sure. But employers are dropping plans. Insurers are dropping plans. If the plan isn't there, you can't keep it.
This carney sideshow is nothing but a fun-house where every seat comes with smoke outlet to attempt to blow up you ass.
The long-lost son of Baghdad Bob.
Ah...the Jarrett talking points appear.
"Mr. Carney? Hi! I'm the doctor 0bamacare has assigned to do your colonoscopy. Do I look familiar? They used to call me Joe The Plumber. Now bend over and crack a vertical smile. This won't hurt a bit." (Sound of Roto Rooter firing up)
Virtus Semper Viridis - often just "VSV" - Virtue Always Green.
High-minded, but Carney is more and more "out to lunch!" More and more, alumnus are not happy.
An honest person! LOL
lies lead to more lies only to cover for the original lie. After Carny and Gibbs, that position needs a new name, especially under this lying fraud currently in the WH.
There will never be a *smoking gun* allowed to exist with this administration, no matter what.
After a few days, all is forgotten with the sheeple.

LED aquarium lighting continues to be a fan favorite among reef hobbyists because they are energy efficient, controllable and customizable and generate low heat to the tank. We carry Kessil, EcoTech Marine Radion, Vertex Illumina, Giesemann TESZLA and Aqua Illuminations Sol, Nano, Vega and Hydra fixtures, controllers and hanging kits. The LED bulbs themselves last a very long time and require a fraction of the electricity required by T5 and metal halide lighting. Additionally, aquarium LED lights offer maximum flexibility to fine tune light coloration, intensity and shimmer without having to replace bulbs because each LED is controllable. LED aquarium lights are dimmable with sunrise/sunset, moonlight and storm/cloud simulation.

Barry Callebaut Introduces Cripearls™
To give pastry chefs a beautiful, tasty and crunchy way to decorate and finish their culinary creations, Barry Callebaut, the world's leading manufacturer of high-quality cocoa and chocolate products, today introduced Crispearls(TM) in dark and white chocolate varieties.
Measuring just 2- to 3- millimeters in diameter, the new pearl-shaped product features a toasted biscuit core that has been enrobed with fine Callebaut dark or white chocolate couverture.
"The new Callebaut Crispearls(TM) are like tiny beads of caviar," says Rich Benson, Director of Research and Development for Barry Callebaut North America. "They have a unique pearl-like gloss and a great aroma, making them ideal for adding texture, taste and color to pastries, desserts and other confections."
In fact, pastry chefs and gourmet artisans can use Crispearls(TM) in a number of ways, including:
Refined Decoration: The shiny pearls are ideal for adding a refined look to finished pastries, confections and desserts. For an extra festive or unique look, they also can be colored gold or silver using an airbrush spray gun.
Textured Pastry Interiors: Crispearls(TM) can be mixed into creamy pastry components, such as mousse, creme brulee or any other filling, to give pastry interiors a flavorful, crunchy bite.
Color and Contrast in Mousses and Ice Cream: When mixed into ice cream and kept deep frozen, Crispearls(TM) retain their taste and crunch. Similarly, when used in chocolate mousse, the pearls create a rich contrast in texture while remaining crunchy.

Thanks to gin0va, I recently fell in love with the manga series Pastel. It's been running for hella' long by now, so I'm suprised nobody's done a topic on it, yet. It's a comedy, romance, school and slice-of-life manga, with a fair batch of ecchi in it. (C'mon, you know me; if there's no ecchi, I don't read it.) At first I didn't like the art, because it's so much different from most other manga series, but after a while I really started to like it and currently I think the art is one of the best I've seen yet. AMAISING, RITE? How men can change their mind so easily...
Anyway, enough babbling. You should just read it. It's great.
Here's a summary of volume 1, by Del Ray:
Currently only Dynasty is scanlating Pastel and they're, well... quite slow. :/ Click here for their site, you can find the releases over there. The first 5 volumes were done by AnimeWaves, but seeing as how Pastel was licensed by Del Ray, they removed the downloads from their site. Luckily for you, you can get them two lines below this one.Poor Mugi Tadano . . . The sixteen-year-old is heartbroken after his girlfriend moves away. To ease his troubled state, Mugi takes a summer job at his friend Kazuki's beachside snack bar/hotel on a tropical island. It seems like the perfect plan–until Kazuki sets Mugi up on a date with Yuu, who's supposed to be, well, a little less than perfect. When Yuu arrives, however, she's not the monster that either of the boys had imagined. In fact, Yuu is about the cutest person that Mugi has ever seen. But after Mugi accidentally walks in on Yuu in the bath, the girl is steamed. When trying to apologize the next day, he discovers that Yuu has left the shores of paradise. Mugi vows to search high and low for the beautiful Yuu, but will he ever see her again?

|Babolat AeroPro Drive 2013 Scores
Two years in the waiting and it's finally here. The new and improved Babolat AeroPro Drive has arrived, and it's everything we hoped for and more. Power, spin, control and maneuverability were all rated highly by our playtesters, who were able to play aggressively from all areas of the court. With Active Cortex technology in the handle, the AeroPro Drive's feel and response are cleaner and more dampened. Active Cortex also increased comfort, and the stiff response that players experienced with the previous version has been reduced, although the stiffness was still noticeable by some playtesters. Control was paramount, and the placement abilities of the racquet had our testers hitting with pinpoint accuracy. With no genuine complaints, our playtesters enjoyed every moment of this playtest.
Powerful, spin friendly and maneuverable, with improved comfort and feel, the new Babolat AeroPro Drive reaped many compliments from our team. The first thing Brittany noticed was her ability to hit heavier groundstrokes with tons of spin. She said, "I was really able to whip the racquet around on low balls and hit them with spin. There was definitely potential for power, but I would say not as much as a Pure Drive. I really enjoyed hitting angles with this racquet, and I was even able to hit a low, penetrating slice with this racquet (which I don't do very often!). This wasn't the most comfortable racquet I have played with, and sometimes if I hit outside the sweetspot I experienced some discomfort."
Enjoying the 2013 edition's powerful and responsive offering was Andy. He said, "The new AeroPro Drive GT is explosive from the baseline! The 100 sq. in. headsize provides a lot of forgiveness, allowing me to take big cuts at the ball without fear of missing the sweetspot. Coupled with the open string pattern and light (11.3 oz) weight, you can absolutely rip the ball with massive power and spin. It's very stiff feeling, which is where all that extra power comes from, but this is where Babolat's innovation kicks in. Active Cortex, now introduced into the AeroPro Drive line, does a great job dampening the feel and creating a better connection between ball and player, which I felt previous versions of this racquet didn't quite have. It's still very stiff feeling, but the dampening system in the handle does a great job of making it more comfortable than ever."
Siobhan came into this playtest with a history with the Pure Drive line. She said, "I'm a huge Babolat fan. I've always enjoyed the Aeros, and this was no exception. The one difference I noticed from the previous version was the cleaner feel. There was less bad feedback and a more solid response than I expected, which I really enjoyed. It just allowed me to enjoy hitting groundstrokes that much more. I love the maneuverability and the way I can switch between heavy spin and hard flat balls with ease. I got a lot of comments on my ability to whip back really low balls with a lot of pace with this racquet, and I like how I didn't have to adjust my swing speed. The Aero just flies through the air, allowing me to create some heavy racquet speed, so I can absolutely fire forehands with this racquet. The control was great; I could be pretty pinpoint accurate with my shots. I could hit the big baseline balls that I love, and my placement and depth control was on par."
Paired with a poly, the spin potential and easy response of the AeroPro Drive pleased Chris. He said, "This version of the AeroPro Drive felt extremely maneuverable, more so than the previous versions, and I was able to get a lot of spin out of it. On the first few hitting sessions I found myself a little ahead of my down-the-line forehands and was pulling them toward the middle of the court. However, once adjusted I found good accuracy and tons of pace and spin on everything. I had forgotten just how easy this racquet is to use. I felt very comfortable rallying with it since finding pace and depth was effortless. Best of all, I was hitting my aggressive groundstrokes very, very well. My favorite setup turned out to be Luxilon 4G, as I found a ton of spin and control to go along with the power."
The stability, maneuverability and solid response of the AeroPro Drive made it an enjoyable racquet at net. Chris liked the crisp and clean response, and he felt very connected to his volleys with this racquet. He offered, "Sure, it doesn't have the mass to punch the ball quite as much as I like, but its stiff beam did enough to keep the racquet feeling solid most of the time and for power to be decent. Again, I liked the amount of bite I was finding on the ball, and this racquet is well very suited to poly strings. I was able to carve some nice angle volleys and punch the ball away, and that had me keeping my opponents guessing."
Noticing the stability and maneuverability at net was Siobhan. She said, "It was easy to get this racquet in position, and I really felt the clean response. My arm muscles leave a little to be desired and sometimes at net I get some instability, but the AeroPro Drive really stepped it up for me. It felt solid and comfortable, with great control. I happily switched between touch shots and solid volleys, and I enjoyed the way I could dictate play. I really noticed the difference here between this and the 2011 model. I felt more in control and in touch with my volleys."
Brittany was a big fan of the AeroPro Drive up at net. She said, "I loved hitting volleys with this racquet. It was very solid up at net, and I had complete confidence volleying any ball that was hit at me. The racquet surprised me by being very maneuverable as well. I had plenty of time to get my racquet in place to hit all types of volleys. Lastly, I had plenty of feel, and actually hit a couple of drop volleys!"
"Volleys were surprisingly enjoyable with this racquet!" said Andy. "You don't think of the Babolats as your classic volleying racquets, but they really play well around the net. It's easy to stick volleys and knife them deep with the stiff frame and large headsize. Once again, the Active Cortex provides more feel than ever on those touch and drop volleys. Because of its weight it's also very maneuverable, and it stays very stable when the ball is hit hard at you or you find yourself stretched out at net. A very solid volleying racquet indeed!"
Even for our most particular players, this racquet continued to shine on serves. Pace and spin were consistent, and our testers could still hit with pinpoint accuracy. Really finding her big first serves was Siobhan. She said, "It's simple here: Power. Easy access to spin. Maneuverability. Control. Power. Did I say that already? I love the spin opportunities and the way I can hit my spots with big serves. This racquet allowed me to really let go and swing fast for maximum power. My one stab would be that I do notice the stiffness here a little. It isn't something that would stop me from playing with this racquet, but it is a little rough on my shoulder when I really hit with everything I have."
Finding consistency with his power was Chris, who said, "I've always liked serving with the AeroPro Drive, and this new version lived up to my expectations. I was able to access plenty of pace and spin, allowing me to serve aggressively without sacrificing consistency. On first serves I was impressed with the pop. I'm not the biggest server, but I was able to win some quick points when serving with this racquet. I liked the feel of this racquet on serve as well. It felt lively, crisp and very responsive."
The amount of power and control surprised Andy, who loved the combination. He said, "I was absolutely launching the ball off the serve! I felt like my flat serve was coming out of a cannon, and my kick and slice serves had tons of action of them. Furthermore, even with all the added power I didn't feel much loss of control. I still felt like I could put the ball where I wanted, and I was putting it there with tons of juice on it! I really enjoyed the AeroPro Drive on serve!"
Brittany exploited the versatility of her serving arsenal with the AeroPro Drive. She said, "I was able to hit a wide range of serves with conviction. For my first serve, I loved hitting a flat serve into the body, which was very effective in doubles. I also mixed in some slice out wide on the deuce side to add some variety. I found there was plenty of spin potential when hitting my second serve."
Returning as aggressively as they were serving, most of the playtesters found enough power, control and spin to put their opponents under pressure. Finding his big swings, yet losing some accuracy, was Andy. He said, "Returning with this racquet was great, but this is the one area I felt a slight loss of control. I like to take a big cut on my return, but I also like to take the ball early and use the server's pace, and sometimes I just felt the return get away from me a bit. I ended up bringing my targets in from the lines and taking the same big cuts, but I didn't feel I could be as accurate as I normally am on the return."
Also needing to pull her returns in a little was Siobhan, although she enjoyed the powerful response. "Wunderbar!" she exclaimed. "Returns were very fun! I was able to really whip the racquet around, although I had to rein in the power because this racquet almost whips around too fast. Once again, I felt like I could control my returns, and I enjoyed turning on the spin when I felt like it. I had to exercise some self-control on returns because the AeroPro Drive will give you everything you ask of it, and more."
Chris loved returning with this AeroPro Drive. He explained, "I was able to take a good crack at a lot of returns. The racquet felt super fast, and all the spin I was getting helped me hit some crushing shots. I felt confident stepping inside the court and taking the ball early, such was the level of control I was finding. On the backhand side I found this racquet was fast enough to drive the ball with topspin yet have just enough stability to block or chip a slice return."
Brittany enjoys taking big swings on her returns, and she easily settled into a comfort zone with this racquet. She said, "One of my best shots is my return of serve, and racquets that offer maneuverability and stability often complement my aggressive style. The AeroPro Drive fit my game style perfectly, offering everything I need to hit big returns. I was able to take big cuts at the return yet still maintain control. I found I had plenty of spin to keep the ball low, especially when my opponents were serving and volleying."
Chris - "I liked the spin, maneuverability, crisp and clean feel, power, and just how easy it made it to hit the ball with depth and pace. It was a very forgiving racquet."
Brittany - "I loved the maneuverability and spin this racquet offered. A big plus for me was the excellent feel and touch I got up at net."
Siobhan - "Complete combination of everything: power, control, spin, maneuverability."
Andy - "I loved the forgiveness, power and spin potential, and super solid feel from all areas of the court."
Chris - "None really."
Brittany - "Unfortunately, this racquet was too stiff for me."
Siobhan - "Stiffness, but, we all know these racquets are stiff, so it shouldn't come as a surprise."
Andy - "Other than a slight loss in control on my returns, there wasn't much I didn't like about this racquet!"
Chris - "This racquet is most similar to the one it replaces and the Pure Drive. It fits right in there with those two and really impresses with spin, power and forgiveness. If you have hit a Pure Drive or previous AeroPro Drive, you'll feel the lineage in this one from the first hit. I don't think Babolat has changed much here, and for me that is a very good thing, as the previous version still feels very good. This update has slightly better feel and comes around a tad faster -- both solid improvements to an already impressive racquet."
Brittany - "This racquet played like a mix of the previous AeroPro Drive and the new Babolat Pure Drive. I would say the spin, control and maneuverability is very similar to the 2010 version. With the added Active Cortex the feel was very similar to the Pure Drive, but I would say the AeroPro Drive offers more spin potential while the Pure Drive offers more power."
Siobhan - "Obviously it reminds me of the 2010 model, but it's hands down an improvement on that. Again, it's very similar to the Pure Drive, but instead of the big banging tennis, the AeroPro Drive offers me a smoother, quieter feel that still produces the big power and spin."
Andy - "This is nothing like the midsize frames that I would typically lean toward, and frankly I was very surprised that I enjoyed this racquet so much. It truly is a game changer, allowing you to take huge cuts at the ball without fear of a mishit or loss in control. It's the perfect racquet for developing the modern game. To me, it felt like the Head YOUTEK IG Extreme Pro 2.0 that I recently tested, but with even more power and spin potential. Compared with previous versions, it's more comfortable and possesses more feel than ever. It's a must try for current AeroPro Drive users, as well as any player with the modern big-hitting game."

Old Age Security
Statements by Members
11:05 a.m.
Alain Giguère Marc-Aurèle-Fortin, QC
Mr. Speaker, yesterday the Conservatives delivered a devastating blow to the 16,200 people in my riding of Marc-Aurèle-Fortin who rely on old age security and the guaranteed income supplement in order to have a decent standard of living. Currently, those two programs combined do not always keep the people in my riding above the poverty line.
This was a low blow by the Conservatives, who simply changed the eligibility rules for these pension plans. It was especially cruel to people who have spent their entire lives serving Canada and who are responsible for our country's current prosperity.
Yesterday, the government showed a lack of respect for Canada's seniors by failing to come up with any proposals to reduce the poverty rate.
We think Canadian seniors deserve dignity, but the Conservatives showed tremendous disrespect for that principle. The government is treating seniors as—

Randy Kamp Parliamentary Secretary to the Minister of Fisheries and Oceans and for the Asia-Pacific Gateway
Mr. Speaker, over 4,000 Canadians endure a reduced quality of life and the possibility of premature death, while waiting for an organ transplant.
In 2008, for example, 486 donors were able to provide organs for more than 1,500 transplants, but despite that success, another 300 Canadians died on the waiting list. We know we can and must do better.
Today, Step By Step's Torch of LIfe Relay is coming through Ottawa. This campaign allows youth to participate in this public conversation and encourages Canadians to sign their organ donor cards.
Following question period today, many hon. members will be in front of the Peace Tower to welcome Ottawa relay participants, including George Marcello, who has walked the length of Canada to promote this issue.
This year, the Ontario portion of the relay is dedicated to Betty Albrecht, whose final gift saved five lives. I thank the member for Kitchener—Conestoga for his work on this issue. From many of his friends in Parliament, we miss Betty too.

Mr. Speaker, last December we asked the federal government about the unreasonable delays in tendering projects for the AIDS community action program. Now there are further delays, but this time the problem lies with funding approvals.
It is March 30. If these organizations, which do extraordinary work, are denied funding, they will be forced to close their doors on Monday. They have not yet heard anything.
These organizations will be told on very short notice whether they will be able to pay their experienced and competent employees, and they run the risk of losing all the expertise that has benefited the entire community. A whole group of people is anxiously hanging by a thread.
How can this government boast that it is a competent and efficient manager when this type of botched management is becoming the norm?
Economic Action Plan 2012
Statements by Members

Jacques Gourde Lotbinière—Chutes-de-la-Chaudière, QC
Mr. Speaker, our government is focusing on jobs, growth and long-term prosperity. Economic action plan 2012 contains measures that will create jobs now and will provide more opportunities for Canadians.
To create jobs now, we will extend by one year the hiring credit for small business—a practical, proven measure that encourages businesses to hire more workers. We will provide new funding to improve border infrastructure, make new investments in local infrastructure through the community infrastructure improvement fund, and renew the fleet of the Canadian Coast Guard, which is celebrating its 50th anniversary.
Economic action plan 2012 takes important steps to address the challenges and help take advantage of the opportunities of the global economy, while ensuring sustainable social programs and sound public finances for future generations.
Roy Nelson

Ralph Goodale Wascana, SK
Mr. Speaker, loyalty and service are two good words describing the late Roy Nelson of Glentworth, Saskatchewan. Maybe it was the gutsy generation to which he belonged. Maybe it was his experience in the Royal Navy and then a veteran. Maybe it was his deep Prairie roots as a farmer and rancher. Whatever influences shaped his character, they produced in Roy an extraordinary individual, dedicated to his family and all those around him.
Roy's passion for agriculture was evident in his support for the Wheat Board. He fought for fairness for those affected by the Poplar River Power Station and the Grasslands National Park. He was national president of the Canadian Piedmontese Cattle Association. He was an authentic rural voice.
A lifelong Liberal, Roy Nelson served in the provincial legislature. He personified the bedrock strength of Saskatchewan. We just knew for sure he would never let us down.
Our thoughts and prayers are with his loving wife Kay and their family.
The Budget
Statements by Members

Randy Hoback Prince Albert, SK
Mr. Speaker, yesterday's budget, "Economic Action Plan 2012: Jobs, Growth and Long-Term Prosperity", was great news for Saskatchewan. Our provincial finance minister welcomed the budget. He said that the changes to the employment insurance system would benefit our province and help deal with the skilled labour shortage. Additionally, the best 14 weeks pilot project will continue to apply in the EI region of northern Saskatchewan.
The future is bright for Saskatchewan and Canada. Our efforts to improve responsible resource development and our investments in training and infrastructure are reducing the barriers to entering the workforce.
More opportunities for aboriginal people to fully participate in the economy have expanded with investments in first nations education and school upgrades. In cities, the urban aboriginal strategy will continue to improve opportunities for aboriginal Canadians.
The year 2012 looks to be a bright one for Saskatchewan. I commend the Minister of Finance and I look forward to working with him as we increase the long-term prosperity for Canada.
Conservative Party of Canada
Statements by Members
11:10 a.m.
Randall Garrison Esquimalt—Juan de Fuca, BC
Mr. Speaker, the Conservatives came here promising to clean up Ottawa, but we can see now that unethical behaviour has become too tempting for them to avoid.
We have seen the industry minister violate the conflict of interest law by going on hunting trips with his lobbyist friends with no consequences. Apparently he thinks this is okay as long as he brings his own food and sleeping bag.
When the Chief Electoral Officer explained the scope of electoral fraud, finding hundreds of complaints in more than 200 ridings, the Conservatives denounced this as simply a circus. Clearly, they have no respect for those who had their right to vote attacked.
Yesterday, the Conservatives eliminated the public appointments commission that they created in 2006. Apparently they do not need a public appointments commission because they already know who donated to their party.
The government has proven time and time again that it has become everything it used to hate. Unfortunately for Canadians, it is becoming difficult to tell those Conservatives from the old sponsorship Liberals.
New Democratic Party of Canada
Statements by Members
11:15 a.m.
Costas Menegakis Richmond Hill, ON
Mr. Speaker, the new NDP leader has committed to fight against our government's low-tax, low-debt plan for jobs, growth and long-term prosperity. He has decided to oppose a plan that has already helped Canada come out of the recession sooner and stronger than other developed nations, putting over 610,000 Canadians back to work in the process.
The NDP has already opposed our government's record investments in health transfers and seniors and every tax cut and credit introduced for hard-working Canadian families. Its proposal is higher taxes and job-killing regulations. Our government has a proven track record of job creation, economic growth and long-term prosperity. Canadians simply cannot afford the NDP and its dangerous economic experiments that will kill jobs and hurt hard-working Canadian families.

Oral Questions
11:15 a.m.
Peter Julian Burnaby—New Westminster, BC
Mr. Speaker, Conservatives promised to create jobs. Instead, they slashed the vital services that Canadian families rely on, such as old age security and health care. They promised jobs and growth. Instead, they delivered reckless cuts. In the Conservative budget there is nothing on jobs, aside from the title, and nothing on growing inequality.
Why did the Conservatives table a budget so out of touch with the priorities of Canadian families?

Ottawa West—Nepean
John Baird Minister of Foreign Affairs
Mr. Speaker, we tabled a fair and balanced budget yesterday, focused on jobs, economic growth and the long-term prosperity of Canada. We are excited about this initiative. It is all about how we can build up the private sector and create more jobs so there is more hope and more opportunity. We need the NDP to finally agree to support plans and proposals that will actually create jobs in this country. Let us challenge the NDP to join us in building a better Canada.
The Budget
Oral Questions
11:15 a.m.
Peter Julian Burnaby—New Westminster, BC
Mr. Speaker, if they had any credibility on jobs, they would ask the 2,600 workers at Aveos who are out of theirs.
The reality is that in this budget the Conservatives are actually forecasting that unemployment will go up. Everybody can see this budget for what it is. It is penny-wise and pound foolish. Conservatives are cutting jobs and services to Canadians and ignoring growing inequality. How can they fail so badly to create jobs for Canadians when even their own numbers project that unemployment will grow in Canada this year?
The Budget
Oral Questions
11:15 a.m.
Ottawa West—Nepean
John Baird Minister of Foreign Affairs
Mr. Speaker, let us look at the facts. Since the bottom of the recession, we have seen the Canadian economy create 610,000 net new jobs. Since this Prime Minister came to office in 2006, we have seen more than 1.1 million net new jobs created in this country. This economic action plan is working. It is creating more hope and opportunity. Just this week we got more good news: 400 well-paying manufacturing jobs at Toyota. Will the member opposite stand up and join those of us on the government side and congratulate those 400 people who are getting jobs in the manufacturing sector at Toyota?
The Budget
Oral Questions
11:15 a.m.
Peter Julian Burnaby—New Westminster, BC
Mr. Speaker, will the Conservative members demonstrate solidarity with the 2,600 Aveos workers and the hundreds of workers in New Brunswick who have lost their jobs? Thanks to this government, Canadians will have an even harder time making ends meet than they already do. Instead of helping families by protecting public services and pensions, it has bestowed an austerity budget upon them. It is cutting public services, breaking its promise about old age security and eliminating 19,000 jobs, which will actually result in the loss of 40,000 jobs. Why is this government forcing its ideology on Canadians instead of—

After last week's round of games I'm now 25-4 picking the local-3 on the year including taking Missouri win at Tennessee (although not like that!) .. so it's onto what I think is a must win weekend for K-State, MU & KU
#1 Kansas State at Baylor, 7pm on ESPN
The newly annointed #1 seems to be handling this week like all other weeks, ho hum. The spotlight doesn't seem to be any brighter on Manhattan at least from our perspective in KC, it's sounding like 'one game at a time' continues.
Boring, yes, effective? Hella yes. Keep doing what you are doing Cats. Style doesn't even matter, zero losses matters.
Could the Wildcats use a little pick me up after a flat performance in last weeks win? Sure. Especially on offense to help their QB get back to Heisman favored status. Collin Football is my guy.
Baylor has been suspect all year on D so I think K-State get back to rolling on O and despite my man crush Ty Zimmerman likely being out on D, they have enough horses to absorb the loss.
K-State 38 Baylor 20
Kansas hosts Iowa State, 6pm on 610 Sports Radio.
The Jayhawks are throughly due for a W, before the season and even several weeks ago I would have said that not even Iowa State provided a chance. It does seem like they may be losing steam, but the Cyclones need a W to get to 6 wins and bowl eligibility.
I think KU should treat this like their bowl game. Charlie Weis is buying every student who wants one a ticket to the game hoping to drum up a crowd .. and it's a potential jumping off point for next year.
Iowa State has struggled on offense and can't find a QB. Steele Jantz is the guy unless he starts throwing into trouble as he's been prone to do. KU needs to get him taking needless chances.
ISU's D isn't quite the same since the loss of Jake Knott and ground and pound is the method that has to be.
Due – Kansas 27 Iowa State 24
Missouri hosts Syracuse, 6pm on 98.1fm KMBZ.
No Sheldon Richardson it seems as I type, so that does change the attitude of the Tiger D, but with the final home game and the potential of a 6th victory .. I think they get it done.
Syracuse did play well last week with the win over previously unbeaten Louisville. But so did Missouri in the 4OT thriller at Tennessee. It seemed like something clicked in James Franklin and the mental hurdle of the knee injury may have been erased. Maybe.
This is probably more gut than anything concrete. It just feels like this is a must for bowl qualifying and the extra practice time they could use for next year.
Missouri 31 Syracuse 21

Hello fellow members,
This forum was recommended to me as a place to discuss various issues I have with the language.
I started reading Greek in my teens when I should have been paying attention to my high school studies. 30 years after my first contact with the language, I am still reading Greek regularly.
During the in between time, I have done a beginners New Testament Greek course at Sydney Missionary and Bible College. Several years later, I completed a Bachelor of Arts at Sydney University with a double major in Greek and Ancient Greek, then about 15 years ago, a Bachelor of Theology through the Sydney College of Divinity, where Theology, Patristics and Liturgics were taught in Greek. I can also hold my own with a number of other relevant ancient languages.
This last year and half, I have been reading widely and thinking a lot, to prepare for further study in NT Greek.
I look forward to participating in the forum and receiving the feedback of others who share my interest.
All the best,
Stephen Hughes
(ESL teacher, Mainland China)

"Just bought my second pair a month ago- my first pair lasted me for quite a long time. I haven't wore my second pair yet- it's just my back up ;).Pros:-The color is very vibrate; Great for a pop of color when your outfit's dull.-It's very comfy-ANYONE can rock these vans effortlessly-It's very versatile...to an extent; (ladies do not pair this up with a fancy dress, no matter how hard you try it will not work... at least that's what I think) I've paired them up with dresses, shirt&skirt, shirt&skinny jeans, and long shirt&leggings. All in all, it's a casual pair of shoes.-CHEAP! Need I say more?Cons:- The only con I can think of is the sizing. Normally, I wear size 6 but 6 was too small; I had to size up to a 6.5. The 6.5 was slightly too big but I stuck with it.What are you waiting for? BUY IT! add some color to YOUR day!"

Skip to comments.Vaticans number 2: Priest celibacy up for discussion
Posted on 09/14/2013 9:37:39 PM PDT by 2ndDivisionVet
The Vaticans new secretary of state, Archbishop Pietro Parolin said this week that the issue of priest celibacy is not dogma and is therefore up for discussion.
Its not a church dogma and it can be discussed because it is a church tradition, Parolin told the Venezuelan El Universal, according to a translation by the National Catholic Reporter.
The work the church did to institute ecclesiastical celibacy must be considered, said Parolin, who will officially assume the role of secretary of state in October. We cannot simply say that it is part of the past. It is a great challenge for the pope, because he is the one with the ministry of unity and all of those decisions must be made thinking of the unity of the church and not to divide it.....
(Excerpt) Read more at dailycaller.com ...
The better way to eliminate pederasts, is not to make clergy and marriage mutually exclusive...
Pedophiles are homosexuals or someone the victim may already know such as a parent, uncle, cousin, coach, teacher, etc. — not priests.
It's always been up for discussion since it is not Church dogma or doctrine but a discipline of the Latin Rite of the Catholic Church.
That is interesting logic. Are you saying that because the abuser is a priest...he is not a pedophile?
in other words... fags on their way into the church
(hide the choir boys!)
marriage cures sex criminals?
Those who dig things like abortion, 'gay marriage,' and priestesses are always those who invariably want the discipline of celibacy ended. Every time, as far as I have observed.
They create an unnatural environment and are surprised when it attracts people with unnatural tendencies.
We have precedent in this; Jewish rabbis are expected to be fruitful and multiply. In the Eastern Catholic rites, men who are married can enter the priesthood if they wish to do so.
On one hand, one can refer to Paul in 1 Corinthians, when he counsels that those who have the self-control (and this is important to note) to do so, should maintain celibacy.
On the other, it is commonly acknowledged that many of the early Apostles were married men.
At this stage in time, what would be the proper decision for this discipline of clerical celibacy in the Latin Rite?
The most probable pedophiles in order are:
Fathers and other male relatives
Protestant ministers
Priests are way down on the list.
So if a father is a teacher of mid-high history, coaches the girls basketball team and is a youth minister at his church on weekends/Sundays watch out! He would be much more prone to pedophilia that any priest.
Sexual Abuse of Children by Protestant Ministers
Report: Protestant Church Insurers Handle 260 Sex Abuse Cases a Year
Abuse by Protestant Ministers of Every Denomination
Child Sexual Molestation by Various Protestant Clergy
"Yeshiva" of Brooklyn also Guilty of Child Abuse
Teachers and Pedophilia - In YOUR Backyard
Washington Post -- D.C. school officials reported 220 abuse allegations against teachers
Sex Abuse by Teachers Said Worse Than Catholic Church
OPS (Omaha Public Schools) didn't report abuse allegations
ANOTHER two Texas teachers arrested for having sex with their students
Forgotten Study: Abuse in School 100 Times Worse than by Priests
Sorrowfully in this age of unnatural abominations made mainstream, celibacy stands out as a grave insult to the perverse, who naturally despise such antithesis of evil.
Self control, sacrifice and offering of the priesthood, by the priest, sets them apart in this world. The Enemy is jealous of such men, wishing accordingly to devour them and bring division to the Church, wherever there is an opening.
That actually wasn't my question.
The post I responded to stated "Pedophiles are (insert long list here) ...but not priests.
I never said that there were not abusers in every faith, every walk of life.
The Church has paid many dollars in lawsuits. They do not deny abuse in certain instances.
Priests can be abusers as well as any other. Just because they are "far down on the list" does not make it any less true.
What is your source for "the most probable pedophiles" being fathers and Christian leaders?
So...I read the entire article.
The last sentence addresses the decline of men willing to be priests in the last 50 years.
This could just be about attracting leaders to the church. jmho
Again, come on...I think you should know better than that.
In the past fifty years, there have been only about five actual pedophile priests. The rest of the abusers have been abusers of minors.
The percentage of abusers among Catholic priests is lower than in most professions—much lower. Lower than the incidence of abuse among married clergy in other churches.
Being married does not "screen out" abusers. Married men abuse their own children at a higher rate than priests abuse children.
In other words, the Catholic Church does not have an especially acute problem with sexual abuse, and celibacy has nothing to do with it.
Unlike priestettes, it can be discussed. But it isn't going to change.
First they'll drop celibacy, then they'll grind out priests and priestesses who are entangled in a same-sex sham marriage.
The lawsuits charging pedophilia will become a mushroom cloud over the Vatican.
Who among us doesn't honestly believe that a new religion was created subsequent to Vatican II? To what purpose? Why to finish off the Roman Catholic Church.
Satan has a lot of time on his hands until the Second Coming.
Jesus wept.
Celibacy wasn't required until the middle ages and it came about as a practical response to priests bankrupting their congregations with their own large families that had to be provided for through offerings...
Celibacy is unnatural , I say the church should attract more into the priesthood and not less. The church is under attack by Muslims that are multiplying like rabbits and are taught by their "god" to start multiplying at age 9... Time we joined the battle.
There are many sources. Start with a Google search.
Discuss it all you want. It isn't changing, and shouldn't.
Francis is an interesting fellow.
He does present the possibility of being a Catholic Gorbachev, but I'm not sure the Holy Spirit has not already taken that risk into account.
We will see.
Catholic apologists.
And we know that protestant churches and secular schools shuffle child rapists around to protect them from charges. Oh. Wait. That's Rome that does that.
It won't change.
Is that realy your best defense?
But Our Children Are More Traumatized! They ALL Believe They Are Going To Hell Because They Cannot Get Forgiveness Of Sins! Their Pedophyle Priests Told Them So!
Were Jesus and Paul unnatural - since both were celibate and praised celibacy?
"Celibacy is unnatural..."
So Jesus and St. Paul commended something that is unnatural?
Wow. So, Jesus and St. Paul were unnatural?
Well, conversation beyond this point is fruitless. If someone, in a thread about the Church, is going to say Jesus and St. Paul are unnatural, then there's really nowhere else to go.
No, you post the sources that can show us that fathers and Christian leaders are the the most probable pedophiles.
The issue is about denominations. "Protestant" doesn't say much when comparing other denominations to the single Catholic denomination.
Besides, what about homosexuality, do all denominations have as many homosexual ministers as the Catholics?
I think there is a question of a system that attracts homosexual men to it.
It seems clear that you can't post the quotes from the sources that can show us that fathers and Christian leaders are the the most probable pedophiles.
It seems clear that you don't want to bother looking up the information that's out there.
No, that information is not out there, that is why you can't post it.
It seems clear that you cant post the quotes from the sources that can show us that fathers and Christian leaders are the the most probable pedophiles.
But it is nice to see someone post nonsense on the internet and then when challenged to tell people to go search the net until they find what doesn't exist.
Wow ... you sure are an obstinate one, aren't you?
since you refuse to use the google link I gave you, then start with this article.
It seems clear that you cant post the quotes from the sources that can show us that fathers and Christian leaders are the the most probable pedophiles.
That link was not relevant at all to yours and Salvation's claim.
you're on your own after this one. I've provided some starting points for you but either you don't really want the proof or you want to deny it.
Scripture addresses men who have a difficult time controlling sexual urges. Say's to marry.
You are disconnected from reality. In the past decade, the Holy See has dealt with over 3000 priest who committed abuse over the last fifty years.
3000 priest. What is your definition of acute?
I think at some point it may change to allow men who are already married to be ordained based on special consideration on a case by case basis. Much like the exception already permitted for under certain circumstance. I don't think it will ever be standard policy.
You two need to quit posting that phony claim.
It seems clear that you cant post the quotes from the sources that can show us that fathers and Christian leaders are the the most probable pedophiles.
Posting links that don't prove your claim doesn't address anything, it only proves that you need to quit making it up.
So Jesus and St. Paul commended something that is unnatural?
