Skip to comments.The Real Reason Barney Frank Should Quit
Posted on 11/28/2011 8:12:58 PM PST by Racehorse
It was because he was going to retire anyway, lost a favorite port town in redistricting and had a tough race last time.
Was this really why Congressman Barney Frank announced today hes retiring from the House of Representatives?
Perhaps another reason was hes no longer chairman of the House Financial Services Committee and like a lot of bullies, Mr. Frank found its not easy to be stripped of the power to torment and humiliate others.
Brilliant, but acid tongued and generally unpleasant, Mr. Frank ruled with an iron gavel, ran over critics with delight and treated committee members and especially Republican colleagues as lesser forms of life.
Mr. Franks departure in January 2013 will remove from the House one of its more offensive members. Until then, this petulant, abrasive and downright nasty Congressman will keep making his presence known.
However, it is unlikely that Mr. Frank is leaving for the reason he should depart Congress: out of shame for all he did to stop reform of Fannie and Freddie while there was still time to avert the disaster that almost took down the American economy.
Fannie and, to a lesser extent, Freddie, were led by Democratic political power brokers, masquerading as mortgage bankers while advising Democratic presidents, vetting Democratic running mates, and plumping the election hopes of Congressional Democrats.
Mr. Frank is incapable of feeling shame, regret or a sense of personal responsibility. These are emotions for lesser beings. Hes leaving because of redistricting or to avoid having to raise money or facing those nasty little voters every two years. The House will be a better place for his departure.

By what standards?
I'd say he's just following the new corporate norm: move on before your mistakes and past incompetency catch up with you
I like Rep. Allen West's term: "vile," used to describe not Mr. Frank, but another congressperson. To my thinking, it's a good word to use any time Mr. Frank is the subject.
I sort of dislike to commend Mr. Rove on this. He's right on the mark I believe, but SHEESH! ROVE is just about as nasty a little man as is Frank.
FLASH: This just in! Ex-Congressman Barney Frank has just accepted the position of Head Football Coach at Penn State!!
Is he going to head up the chocolate confection packaging union?? FPLU located on the Hershey Highway.
I always thought that AIDS would end his career,not political reality.
"Brilliant? By what standards?"
Don't you know that all Progressives are brilliant, intellectual, really-really smart geniuses who are also really-really smart? Hmmmm? Donthcha know?
(Not to mention scu*bags.)
Tucker Carlson said that on the set of Crossfire, an intern tried to assist Frank with his look, and he said to her, "I'm not here to look pretty!" And the intern cried.
Barney is bailing ahead of the Democrat bloodletting set for 2012. He has taken a new position (almost certainly prone) as the night attendant of the octopus tank at the Boston Aquarium. He'd heard that octopi have 8 tentacles and each may have up to 50 SUCKERS, making a total of 400 suckers. We hear that he's paying the aquarium 350 bucks a week to be alone with these creatures for 8 hours a night.
DC insiders.
(I almost stopped reading Rove at "Brilliant".)
5-watt incandescent.
Exactly right. The turd burglar is getting out before another party prosecutes this sh*t bag of a human being and tosses his flaccid hind-parts into the general prison population.
Looks like Freddie got Barney in the Fannie.
Maybe Barney Frank is dying from some HIV/AIDS related illness. HIV/AIDS because of its effects on the immune system to bring about opportunistic infections, which are uncommon in healthy immune systems. Such are the most common cause of death in people with HIV/AIDS.
Bacterial infections common in HIV/AIDS include tuberculosis, bacterial pneumonia, recurrent salmonella septicemia, bacterial diarrhea (shigellosis, salmonellosis and campylobacteriosis), bacillary angiomatosis and recurrent bacterial skin sepsis. Other bacterial infections more common in advanced stages of the disease are mycobacterium avium complex and mycobacterium kansasii.
Apart from bacterial infections, one with HIV/AIDS needs to be concerned about cancer. Cancers common to HIV/AIDS include Kaposi's sarcoma, non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, cervical and anal cancers. Any one of such cancers might even cause gay Congressman Barney Frank to cut short his term in office.
Bad things are happening in the economy and things are about to hit the fan.
Barney is as personally responsible for much of this disaster as any one person can be.
He is seriously hated by many members of Congress and most of the country. If he stayed he'd be walking around with an "indict me" sign stuck on his back.
How Barney Frank and Chris Dodd can even show their faces in public after collapsing the housing market is just amazing to me. They made their democrat friends very rich while purposely destroying the very poor people they supposedly were trying to "help".
It's really a marvel how the liberal MSM can be so in the tank for democrats that even they wouldn't jump on a slam dunk story as that and instead try to blame the whole mess on Bush. All of them belong in hell because of that alone.
Allen West called conservatives skitzoid for not supporting the loser super committee scheme. He calls a lot of people names. Including his voters.
This is true. But the Massholes of MA-04 will still be Massholes, redistricted or not.
The net gain: Massachusetts loses a rep (not important who, but Barney Fagg is about the best we could expect!).
Karl Rove thinks Bawney is Bwilliant?? Screw him.
The Dodd-Frank conspiracy-—a law that created another govt behomoth that adds layers of regulatory burdens those liberals love——made in response to (what they said was) the near-collapse of the banking industry in 2008........
Dodd already left Congress after he did his damage——and is now ensconced in a cushy job in Hollywood......sucked up to by the Hollywood moguls b/c of his "expertise."
Look for Frank to get a similar well-paid sinecure.
He's a crook. Why isn't he in jail?
I understand he was promoted....to Rear-Admiral....
I don't care why Franks is quitting, just that he's quitting. Having Maxine Waters as the Democrat face on the Financial Affairs committee is icing on the cake.
Could it be Bawney sees the handwriting on the wall? Even if Obama manages to squeak by and get reelected the Democrats will still have a blood bath. Obama is selling out everyone for four more years and the Democrats have nothing to run on but lies. I know that is all they ever run on but people are more informed now. If he retires before having to answer to a conservative house and senate he can get all his retirement money and laugh at the problems of the American people.
Frank through his relations with the GSEs managed to do more damage to this country than practically any congressman in my memory. He was a horrible example of a public servant and deserves to go down in history as a scoundrel.

The Politics of Real Estate
Few industries are as profoundly impacted by the political machinations in Washington as the real estate industry. Whether it's old legislation like Jimmy Carter's Community Reinvestment Act or Barack Obama's massive mortgage bailouts, the U.S. political machine has a huge impact (usually bad) on the business of real estate.
Ideally, we could ignore politics. But here at the Bryan Ellis Real Estate Letter, we insist on seeing the world with clarity - including the reality of Washington's aggressive involvement in every facet of our business, from mortgage lending to real estate sales license; from loan modification regulations to appraisal requirements... every piece of our business is profoundly impacted by politics. So rather than stick our heads in the sand and ignore reality, readers of the Bryan Ellis Real Estate Letter choose to be informed and prepared.
Mortgage Industry News
Few things change more rapidly than the mortgage market, and with the increasing dominance of GSE's Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac over the mortgage business, it's more important than ever to keep up. Here are a few recent mortgage news updates:

The Republican-controlled House of Representatives, where comprehensive immigration reform went to die in 2006, is the wild card in this year's immigration-reform debate.
House leaders are taking a wait-and-see approach as the Senate begins crafting a bipartisan immigration-reform bill, and while advocates are optimistic about its chances, many House conservatives are sure to continue to oppose any polices that might be construed as amnesty for illegal immigrants.
House Speaker John Boehner, R-Ohio, has signaled a willingness to tackle the issue this year in a bipartisan way, but he might have trouble getting a majority of his fellow Republicans to go along with him.
A decision to collaborate with Democrats on such a hot-button issue as immigration could put his leadership position in jeopardy.
Politically, the anti-amnesty sentiment continues to simmer with the grass-roots "tea party" activists who are often influential in GOP primaries.
And to some House Republicans, the long-term future electoral viability of the Republican Party may be a secondary priority to their avoiding a primary foe next year.
So far, Boehner has not endorsed or rejected the bipartisan framework that was announced last Monday by a group of four Democratic senators and four Republican senators.
Sens. John McCain and Jeff Flake, both Arizona Republicans, are among the so-called "Gang of Eight" who crafted the plan.
"Boehner is going to play this close to his chest, see what happens in the Senate and not commit too early," said David Cort, assistant professor of sociology at the University of Massachusetts-Amherst. "Why waste political capital now when he doesn't have to? He can let the Senate go first."
Flake, who was sworn in as Arizona's newest senator last month after six terms in the House, understands the dilemma his former colleagues face.
"There are some who aren't excited about taking up this thing," said Flake, who already is trying to sell the Senate plan to House Republicans. "Anybody with elections every two years worries more about that. But I think everybody is anxious to see this in the rear-view mirror. So that's some motivation there."
Less risk in Senate
While there is no guarantee the Senate will ultimately pass a comprehensive bill, senators generally face fewer political risks in taking on divisive issues than House members do, analysts said.
In representing an entire state, senators tend to be accountable to a more politically diverse group of constituents and can take a more moderate view, said Stephen Yale-Loehr, immigration-law expert and professor of law at Cornell University.
They also have the relative luxury of having to face voters every six years rather than every two years as House members do.
That makes it a bit easier for them to look at issues from a longer-term perspective, Yale-Loehr said.
"Having to face re-election every two years can make a member of the House more cautious thinking about how this might affect his or her primary chances," he said. "Republicans have to worry about a primary-election challenge from a 'tea party' or other conservative candidate."
In 2006, the then-GOP-run Senate passed a comprehensive immigration-reform bill co-authored by McCain and the late Sen. Edward Kennedy, D-Mass., but it went nowhere in the Republican-controlled House, which instead passed its own tough enforcement bill that also ultimately failed.
Later that year, Republicans lost control of both the House and Senate in a Democratic wave election. Republicans regained control of the House in the 2010 election.
On Wednesday, Politico reported that a group of eight House members — four Democrats, four Republicans — are quietly working on their own immigration-reform plan to offer to House leaders for consideration. None is from Arizona.
Flake acknowledged that some of his former GOP House colleagues who represent Republican-dominated districts could attract a primary foe by embracing comprehensive immigration reform.
However, even Republicans who come from areas with few Hispanic voters have an interest in solving the problem, he said.
"I hope that we have enough who say, 'I'll risk it in my primary, but, boy, for the good of my party, we need to broaden the base,'" Flake said.
Rep. Bob Goodlatte, R-Va., the new chairman of the House Judiciary Committee, is expected to be more open-minded toward immigration reform than his predecessor, Rep. Lamar Smith, R-Texas, who has already condemned the Senate blueprint as "amnesty" for illegal immigrants.
Likewise, Rep. Trey Gowdy, R-S.C., who chairs the panel's Subcommittee on Immigration and Border Security, is "a smart guy who approaches this thing in a very deliberative fashion," Flake said.
"With the people in place now, from Goodlatte to Gowdy to others, we are in a better position than we were before," Flake said.
Hopeful on consensus
While Arizona's two senators are in a leading role on reform, many of its House members are largely silent, though some are hopeful.
Rep. David Schweikert, a Republican who represents the northeast Valley, praised the Senate's efforts in a written statement to The Arizona Republic on Wednesday, revealing support for some principles of reform.
Like most Republicans, he argued enhanced border security is a must.
But he also said an immigration overhaul to deal with the millions of people living in the country illegally is "well overdue."
He cautioned that such a plan should not favor illegal immigrants over those who have been waiting in line to come legally to the United States.
"I look forward to working with my colleagues on both sides of the aisle to find a fair and equitable solution that addresses the very real problems that exist in our system of immigration and border security," he said.
Rep. Ron Barber, a Democrat from Tucson, said he expects a bloc of Republicans to oppose reform but the group may not be large enough to hold up a bill.
"Coming out of the election, Republicans are reflecting across the board on what they need to do on a number of issues, where they stand and how they're perceived, and one of those issues is fixing the broken immigration system," Barber said.
He pointed to "major breaks" within the Republican caucus in recent weeks that aided passage of bills on the "fiscal cliff," Hurricane Sandy relief and the federal-debt ceiling.
"I really believe that can and will happen on immigration," he said.
Rep. Ann Kirkpatrick, a Democrat who represents a swing district in northern Arizona, also is hopeful.
"I'm optimistic both parties can agree on some of these principles ... and move past the stalemate that's been in place so long," Kirkpatrick said.
Freshman Rep. Kyrsten Sinema, D-Ariz., said she is grateful that Arizona's two senators are among those who are leading the reform effort.
"It's great for our state and it's great for the prospect of getting reform done," she said.
The Latino factor
The GOP-led House is more likely to pass comprehensive reform if it passes overwhelmingly in the Democratic-led Senate with strong support from Republican senators, Yale-Loehr said.
"But if it passes by just a few votes, I think that will make it harder to get something similar through the House," he said.
If the Senate sends over a strong bipartisan bill, Boehner most likely will call the House GOP caucus together and try to convince them that passage is key to the Republican Party's political future and its ability to attract the growing number of Latino voters, Cort said.
President Barack Obama won more than 70 percent of Latino voters in his re-election bid. Latino voters also overwhelmingly favored Democratic congressional candidates.
"I think Boehner will tell his GOP caucus that Republicans cannot afford to be blamed for the bill going down," Cort said. "He will tell them not to give the Democrats a weapon to use against them at the polls."
Jennifer Gordon, a law professor at Fordham University School of Law in New York City, said she believes the message will resonate with a growing number of House Republicans.
"Supporting reform may not be in the personal interests of some representatives, but it's unquestionably in the interests of the Republican Party as a whole," Gordon said. "The last election was a powerful message to the Republican Party. That's what makes me reluctant to make the standard prediction of it (reform) failing in the House."
Flake said he believes Boehner would be willing to move forward with an immigration bill even if a majority of House Republicans oppose it.
"He's done that a couple of times recently (passed bills largely with Democratic votes), and I think he will do it again," Flake said. "The desire to get immigration behind us extends pretty far and pretty deep, even with people who don't necessarily agree so much with the principles or the direction of it."
Boehner also could be helped by Republican political-action committees such as the Hispanic Leadership Network, which sent e-mails to House Republicans last week urging them to avoid inflammatory rhetoric in the coming debate that could alienate Latino voters.
The group, the Hispanic outreach arm of the American Action Network, cautioned GOP members against referring to immigrants as "illegals" or "aliens" or denouncing the Senate plan as "amnesty."
Meanwhile, Arizona's House members are reviving their bipartisan meetings in the new Congress, a move that the senior member of the delegation, Democratic Rep. Ed Pastor, hopes can help bring consensus on immigration and other issues.
The first outing was an evening social last month hosted by Republican Rep. Trent Franks.
Pastor plans to sponsor monthly delegation breakfasts beginning Feb. 14, and other members are expected to host events as well.
"They have their own interests, they have their own politics, they have districts they represent," Pastor said of his colleagues. "For me, it's holding conversations in a private manner to talk about (immigration reform) and try — as legislation is developed and passed — to speak with them and encourage and answer questions."

Oliver Sacks' The Man Who Mistook His Wife for a Hat tells the stories of individuals afflicted with fantastic perceptual and intellectual aberrations: patients who have lost their memories and with them the greater part of their pasts; who are no longer able to recognize people and common objects; who are stricken with violent tics and grimaces or who shout involuntary obscenities; whose limbs have become alien; who have been dismissed as retarded yet are gifted with uncanny artistic or mathematical talents.
"A Clinician's eYe, but a Poet's HEART"
At its core, The Power of Habit contains an exhilarating argument: The key to exercising regularly, losing weight, raising exceptional children, becoming more productive, building revolutionary companies and social movements, and achieving success is understanding how habits work. Habits aren't destiny. As Charles Duhigg shows, by harnessing this new science, we can transform our businesses, our communities, and our lives.
"Nice! A guide on how to change"
Harry Potter has never even heard of Hogwarts when the letters start dropping on the doormat at number four, Privet Drive. Addressed in green ink on yellowish parchment with a purple seal, they are swiftly confiscated by his grisly aunt and uncle. Then, on Harry's eleventh birthday, a great beetle-eyed giant of a man called Rubeus Hagrid bursts in with some astonishing news: Harry Potter is a wizard, and he has a place at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. An incredible adventure is about to begin!
After five years on the run, Court Gentry is back on the inside at the CIA. But his first mission makes him wish he had stayed on the outs when a pair of Chinese agents try to take him down in Hong Kong. Normally the Chinese prefer to stay eyes-only on foreign agents. So why are they on such high alert? Court's high stakes hunt for answers takes him across Southeast Asia and leads to his old friend, Donald Fitzroy, who is being held hostage by the Chinese.

Very stylish and fitted
"I've been looking for a perfect pair of combat boots for a while now and i came across these. The fold over flaps are a very trendy addition to the style of shoe that. They're very comfortable after they're broken into a little bit. At first they were a little squeeky, but they fit perfectly and they're nice a quiet now!"

Had to Exchange
"I was really looking forward to getting these ones. When I ordered them I ordered them half a size down because it was reviewed that they ran a little big and other reviews suggested ordering half a size smaller.I'm really sad I did that now because now I have to send them back and exchange them and I was hoping to wear them this weekend for an event.I strongly suggest going with your actual size on these shoes and not a size down. I'm sure if I had the correct size they would have been fine and comfortable. I'll find out once I get the correct pair."

"These are very cute and stylish shoes. I was hesitant to buy them because I've never worn anything like this before, but i love them!!I it is hard for me to find shoes that fit well because I wear a sz. 10, and I have a wide foot. They were a really good price and very cute!!"

perfect combat boot
"This boot can provide 2 different looks and the detail at the top gives it more attitude than the average combat boot. I ordered a size 7.5 (my size) and it fits big. I did not want to waste time in returning them so I just wore them with plush socks and that did the trick. If i were to order this item again I would order it in a 7. The width is perfect; not constricting, so i can wear them all day. I recommend this boot!"

By GARY ARRINGTONSports writer
I am not sure that whupping is even a real word but it certainly does fit the Emery Spartan football team as they have now "whupped" three straight opponents by scoring more than 40 points and winning those three games by an average score of 44-13. Last week Emery went on the road and defeated American Leadership Academy in Spanish Fork by a score of 45-7. The week before, Emery hosted Ben Lomond of Ogden and won that game 45-12.
So the question is "just how good is this Emery team" and to be honest, I do not know for sure. I am impressed with their natural abilities, I like their work ethic and they seem to want to give it their all. But I am just a little prejudiced so I have to be careful in my assessment. Nevertheless, I think they can be pretty good if they continue doing what they have been doing.
In both games, Emery quickly got on the scoreboard. Against Ben Lomond, Emery scored a touchdown the first four times they had the ball. Against ALA, Emery scored three of the first four times they had the ball.
Besides the offense playing well, the Emery defense has also been stellar. Ben Lomond did not score until the fourth quarter when the game had long been decided. ALA's offense never did score as the Eagles scored on a kick-off return. ALA had 12 yards of offense in the first half while Ben Lomond had 97 yards of first half offense.
In the Ben Lomond game, Ryne Jones scored the first touchdown on a 24-yard run. Dempsey Jeffs then hit Jordan Gee with a pass that went 36 yards for a touchdown. The last score of the first quarter was a 7-yard run by Chance Ariotti.
Emery scored three more times in the second quarter. Jeffs scored on a quarterback sneak from the 1-yard line, Cody Allen then returned a punt 82 yards for a touchdown and finally Jeffs hit Gee with another pass and Gee scored from 26 yards out.
Emery only scored once in the second half as Emery and the clock was just a little merciful. Ryne Jones scored again, this time on a 57-yard run.
Against ALA, Jeffs to Gee continued to work as Gee scored on a play that went 51 yards. This was the second play of the game. Gee then scored on a 7-yard run as Emery led 13-0 after the first quarter. In the second quarter, Emery scored twice more. Mike Jones scored from the fullback position on a 4-yard run and then Jeffs hit Ryne Jones with a pass that went 26 yards for a score.
Emery scored once in the third quarter on a 43-yard run by Ryne Jones. As the fourth quarter began, Ryne would score one more time, this time on a 12 yard run. To close out the scoring, Jeffs threw a pass to wide receiver Cody Allen and Cody scored on a play that went 52 yards.
Dempsey Jeffs completed three of five passes in the first game for 70 yards and two touchdowns. Jeffs completed 10 of 14 passes in the second game for 223 yards and three touchdowns. On the ground in the two games, Jordan Gee ran the ball for 173 yards and scored four times. Ryne Jones ran the ball for 212 yards and scored five times. Mike Jones ran the ball for 138 yards and a touchdown.
Emery had 358 yards of offense in the Ben Lomond game and a whopping 561 yards of offense in the ALA game.
The Emery JV team has won two of their three games while the Emery sophomores have won all three of their games as the Emery coaching staff works on building a successful program. The 'black' haired team and their black haired coaches are looking to continue their winning ways this week as they travel to Vernal to face the Uintah Utes on Friday night.

A late try from Peter Horne sent Northampton crashing out of the Heineken Cup at the Pool stages as Glasgow won 27-20 on Saturday.
A last-minute try from Peter Horne sent Northampton crashing out of the Heineken Cup at the Pool stages as Glasgow won 27-20 on Saturday.
Glasgow headed into the clash having tasted defeat the hands of Ulster a week earlier, while Northampton were chasing a third consecutive win following victories over Exeter and Castres.
A brace of penalties of Ruaridh Jackson gave the Scottish outfit an early six-point lead, though the visitors struck back quickly through Stephen Myler's own three-pointer.
The Saints then took the lead ten minutes before half-time when the TMO adjudged a try for Dominic Waldouck following a spell of intense pressure from the visitors.
It took just six second-half minutes for Glasgow to find their way back into the contest, however, when Josh Strauss showed great strength to drive over for a try. Scott Wight converted to make it 13-10 to the hosts, though ten minutes later Glasgow were again behind when George Pisi crossed for an unconverted try.
The ding-dong battle continued into the final quarter of the match, with Niko Matawalu putting the Warriors back in front when he intercepted on half-way before racing clear for a try, converted by Wight.
But Foden crashed over on 71 minutes to level the scores and, crucially, the conversion was missed, setting the scene for Horne to brush off three would-be tacklers in the final minutes to snatch victory for Glasgow.
Horne's own conversion sparked jubilant scenes following a heart-stopping encounter at Scotstoun, and this time, the final whistle sounded before the Saints could find a response.
The scorers:
For Glasgow:
Tries: Strauss, Matawalu, Horne
Con: Wight 2, Horne
Pen: Jackson 2
For Northampton:
Tries: Waldouck, Pisi, Foden
Con: Myler
Pen: Myler

- Why Us
- Service
In order to make everything easy for you, we've created a convenient starter kit that doesn't compromise. It comes complete with everything you'll need to begin enjoying a better alternative to traditional tobacco cigarettes, virtually anywhere.
The Deluxe Plus Kit is our most popular starter kit. It comes loaded with most of the must-have accessories and is built using the original patented 2-part technology (battery component & a combined atomizer/cartridge). It offers the industry's best smoking experience with its disposable all-in-one atomizer/cartridge filters.
This all-in-one atomizer and cartridge combo provides a new & clean smoking experience because each time the nicotine cartridge is replaced with a new one, you are also getting a new atomizer. This eliminates any need for maintenance of a separate atomizer unit.
Click here to see the Deluxe Starter Kit Manual
Please view the complete South Beach Smoke Deluxe Electronic Cigarette Owner's Manual
We recommend that all newbies start off with 1.8%. This is the most comparable level to a traditional cigarette and will provide the best results for those just making the switch for the first time. We also offer other levels of nicotine, allowing you to truly customize your vaping experience.
The nicotine level will directly affect your vaping experience and performance of your electronic cigarette. The term "throat hit" is commonly used to describe the intensity of your vape. As you experience with different nicotine levels, we suggest that you move slowly and do not make drastic jumps. Moving from 1.8% to 2.4% is recommend over jumping straight to 3.6%.
As always, if you have any questions or concerns, please give us a call to speak to one of our friendly reps or visit one of our retail locations where we you can speak directly to one of our Associates.

Reviews of this property
Reviews for this host's other properties
The contact with the owner Marilia was very, very nice and always competent. Marilia is really helpful without beeing intrusive . The location of the apartment was for our needs perfectly (not in the tourist district, but in the trendy district with student athmosphere, alternatives Ambiente ). You can still reach Avenida Aliados by walking, it is not far to the subway and you need no car. Sao Bento station is only 10 min. away. The apartment is quiet and big enough for 2 maximum 3 people, despite central location. Good working WLAN
The infrastructure in the area is completely sufficient. Highly recommended and any time gladly again. It was a fantastic time .
We enjoyed the apartment and Porto so much.
Conny and Erwin from Germany
The host cancelled the booking, this review is automated.
We had a good stay at Marilia's apartment in Porto and the apartment has all the basic necessities for a short holiday.
It is furnished with basic Ikea furniture, kitchen and 3 beds which all work as designed.
It even has private parking space which is convenient in Porto if you value your car.
There is one major disadvantage though; The neighborhood.
In the same flat there is a Tantra lounge which had been making loud music on the sunday we arrived till late in the evening and in the night till about 02:00 some party was going on in the shopping mall just inbetween the flats.
The students in the flat on the opposite side seem to like staying up late till about 01:00, but the local inhabitants of our side like to get up at 08:00 and love to make loud noises too. So none of the nights we reached 8 hours of sleep, but okay it is a big city anyways.
Nice apartment, enough space, light and clean. We liked the plaza, at the end of the street. With Metro straight to the centre, easy going. Good information from our host, she is a nice lady. We had a lovely week in this place.
Nice apartment! Large, clean, very close to the beach and situated in a quiet neighbourhood, with grocery store and restaurant nearby. Nice view from the living room (balcony) and kitchen. We really had a wonderful time.
Good communication with host. Our host gave helpful information about the metro system in Porto.
The apartment was perfect for a family with child and had everything we needed for the stay.
The rooms are clean and simple. It´s located near the metro. Located in a calm neighborhood. Very easy to go to centre of Porto or even to beaches . For example : 30 minutes combination metro/train to beach Miramar. The train station is near beach and is a very nice beach. We had a good time in Porto !
The stay has been positive. The person who greeted us was punctual and very nice. The house is bright and spacious, clean, tidy and contained everything needed for a few days. The WIFI worked perfectly and was very helpful to have a garage. The location is a bit away from the tourist areas but there is a metro nearby. The less positive was that the TV did not look, and it's a third floor without elevator, which is especially noticeable if you carry luggage. As an overall assessment, it presents a good quality / price ratio, so it seems a desirable housing.
La estancia ha sido positiva. La persona que nos recibió fue puntual y muy agradable. La casa es luminosa y amplia, estaba limpia, ordenada, y contenía todo lo necesario para pasar unos días. El WIFI funcionaba perfectamente y fue muy útil contar con una plaza de garaje. La ubicación está un tanto apartada de las zonas más turísticas pero hay una parada de metro cercana. Lo menos positivo fue que la TV no se veía, y que es un tercer piso sin ascensor, lo que se nota sobre todo si llevas equipaje. Como valoración global, presenta una buena relación calidad / precio, así que me parece una vivienda recomendable.
We have felt very comfortable in this apartment. Quiet location, very clean, spacious, a few steps from the sea and Marilia was a wonderful hostess. Whenever we needed help, she was there for us. The transfer worked just fine, and even organized a taxi for us in the middle of the night.
We'll be back.
Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt in dieser Wohnung. Ruhig gelegen, sehr sauber, großzügig geschnitten, nur ein paar Schritte zum Meer und Marilia war eine wunderbare Gastgeberin. Wann immer wir Hilfe gebraucht haben war sie für uns da. Die Übergabe hat prima funktioniert und sogar einen Taxi für uns mitten in der Nacht organisiert.
Wir kommen bestimmt wieder.
The apartment is simply furnished and well suited to explore Porto.

Alright, Friends. Hold on to your hats. Here comes giveaway number 4. Chock full of beautiful things to brighten your holidays. You'll find excellent prizes from Polarn O Pyret, B. Toys, Jessica Rust Designs, Style Paige, and Children Inspire Design. You know the drill: WINNER TAKES ALL. One winner will win everything I describe below. I think you're really going to love (love = go nuts over) today's prizes. See what you think.
From Polarn O. Pyret, the winner will receive $200 in gift certificates! Wouldn't it be fun to spend it all on PO.P's signature stripes? Everybody loves stripes! Right now, Polarn O. Pyret even has a special section of Birthday Stripes to celebrate their 35th year in business. So fun! You may remember I was able to visit the Polarn O. Pyret headquarters in Stockholm and I'm such a fan of their mission and ethics. Their dedication to quality is outstanding. In Sweden, kids play outside every single day — no matter the weather. And PO.Ps outerwear and layering guidelines definitely help make that possible.
From B. Toys, the winner will receive a collection of Design Mom's favorite picks — 8 toys altogether, worth over $200! You'll get Bazillion Buckets, H2-Whoa!, Pop Arty, Stackadoos in a Jar, Zany Zoo, Okideoke, Take it Easel, and Alphaberry. I can tell you right now, my kids LOVE B. Toys. And I love them too. If you've ever walked down the toy aisle at Target, you've probably noticed the B. Toys section. It catches my eye every time because the colors are unusual for children's toys and the packaging is always excellent. They have offerings for tiny babies through school ages and they make great gifts!
From Jessica Rust Designs, the winner will receive a $200 credit toward her gorgeous dinnerware and ceramics. Jessica's signature style — nature inspired, whimsical and hand drawn — has made her dinnerware designs some of the most sought after and recognizable in the industry. All products at Rust Designs are dishwasher safe and microwave safe, plus, they can be personalized! The dinnerware is produced on the highest quality porcelain available. I think dinnerware and glassware is such a fun thing to buy because you get to interact with it daily, from your cup of orange juice in the morning to your home cooked meal at night — it's a wonderful way to add beauty to you day.
Note: for personalized dishes, order by December 5th for Christmas delivery.
From Style Paige, the winner will receive a Shailie Starter Kit, Shailie Fairy add-on, and Shailie Pink Princess add-on — worth $220! The kit comes with a child-size, real-life dress form in adorable pink and white polka dots. A "base" skirt and top that are covered in velcro. And fabric pieces that attach to the velcro — so your kids can create their own dressups. Super smart, right? My kids received this for Christmas two years ago and I promise you it's one of the most played with toys in our house. The Shailie Starter Kit makes a big statement under the tree on Christmas morning. I'm sure you know the perfect recipient for this gift.
From Children Inspire Design, the winner will receive a gift certificate for $200! In case it's new to you, Children Inspire Design is a product line of modern, eco-friendly and culturally diverse wall art, wall cards and posters, designed to help children learn compassion for earth and all who inhabit it. Rebecca Peragine, the creator of Children Inspire Design, recently introduce the My Roots Collection, and I think it's fantastic! You can use it commemorate your family's or child's heritage by State, Country or Continent. If you know anyone who's into genealogy, these posters would make such a neat gift!
Well. What do you think of day number four? Want to win it all? Please visit Polarn O Pyret, B. Toys, Jessica Rust Designs, Style Paige, and Children Inspire Design and leave a comment below. You only have 24 hours to enter — tell your friends so they don't miss out. The winner will be posted tomorrow (Friday). Good luck!
Ashley P. is the lucky winner. Thanks for playing!

The Good: This is an amazing shoe. Very comfortable right out of the box with no break-in required. First run was a half marathon difficult trail run with steep and varied terrain. Grip was excellent, laces stayed tied and in place. Tongue is comfortable with no pressure from the laces being felt when descending on the steep downhills. The North Face puts quality insoles in their shoes so for me there was no need to put in another manufacturer's insole. The cushion and support is there. I have run in TNF Single Track for several years and the Ultra Guide is comparable yet feels lighter and the heel more snug. Durabilty with TNF Single Track was incredible and I expect these to last a long time as well.
The Bad: They do not offer widths in this shoe and it felt a little snug in the toe box (I'm not sure why manufacturers still design shoes with a pointed toe box). Padding in the heel could be more ample (that said there still was no heel slippage which to me is more important than padding). I don't really like the bright yellow color, but it does add some visibility (and it's always nice to be seen by any oncoming mountain bikers or other vehicles). The forefoot protection (TNF calls it a "snake plate") is adequate, but I started feeling the rocks toward the end of the run and would want a little more protection for anything longer than a half marathon.
Overall, I would highly recc. these shoes. Note on Running Warehouse: Excellent prices, love the "shoe fitter", the returns are easy.

Now we know Shukaku's plan--Swarm! Just like a bunch of flies.
Fuck you, Madara! What, no snappy comeback while you're (literally) getting your ass kicked?!
5/5 types of badass!
Proud (and confused) subscriber of Shonen Jump Alpha.
Gotta admit, this was one of the best chapters we've had in a while!
Even Akamaru has kyuubi Chakra XD, that's a bit much.
Aggravate, Anger, and Piss off
Ergh ok boring part over time to go back to what sasuke n oro is up been waiting for this since Neji died.
it they just turned into a chakra bird?
two important questions i hope the ppl here can answer for me...
1) are madara and obito both separated from the 10 tails? it looks like naruto used a variation of the shadow shuriken he used with sasuke against zabuza a long time ago. he outsmarted both obito and madara within the same move. he pretended to be attacking them and so too did they belueve they were his target but actually he was targeting the mokuton bindings linking them to the 10 tails and lee was extra insurance to make sute it worked. THIS IS THE CLEVER NARUTO I KNEW EXISTED BUT KISHI HID HIM FROM US UNTIL NOW! naruto was never truly an idiot, he is quite smart and not too shabby with on the fly battle techniques when analyzing his situation. again, i repeat, naruto faked out both obito and madara with the same move and forced them to relinquish control of juubi.
2) the revelation that the chakra transference naruto used with kyubi chakra to the shinobi alluance is at its base, the same as minato used to put both his and kushina's chakra into naruto... does that mean that every shinibi who received the narufox chakra will experience naruto's personal will or thoughts? will they have naruto in their minds on some level?
anything could have been transmitted with that chakra such as everyone learning the nine names of the bijuu.
Obito is Tobirama's great grandson. The proof is in the pudding.
I agree with Temperjoke, this was definitely one of the best in a while. Imo, the best since 609/610.
At least we understand Naruto's chakra delivery method a little better... and the fact that it's linked to his unique body (in terms of bloodline and time spent as a Jinchuuriki) makes it seem a little more justifiable.
The chakra bird formation was a little overdone, but then again based on some of the recent anime intros, we knew that Shinobi are excellent at synchronised dancing. That said, this chapter should have been titled "Dance of the Shinobi", not the last one.
Too bad it was Hinata who fixed Naruto's shoulder... it honestly wasn't a big deal, but I'd have liked to either see Sakura do it, or see his Kyuubi/Uzumaki chakra heal him (one of the two).
It seems a little unbelievable that Madara/Obito couldn't escape from the shadow binding... Obito demonstrated the ability to use his Mangekyou for a Kamui while frozen in place; why couldn't Madara use Susano'o / his Rinnegan for something? I'm sure they've got more up their sleeve, and Kishi needed a way for Naruto to sever their bond with the Juubi (juxtaposed with his own talk about keeping his bonds close to him). I'm just going to let it go for now and pretend I'm proud of Rock Lee for landing a blow on Madara.
Big stuff next chapter with Sasuke and Co, probably... plus the Juubi is now free, for the moment. Things are really starting to heat up!
That was kind of lame, there wasn't really any strategy to what they did and as usual Naruto is just regurgitating the same cheesy crap about not giving up and getting another convenient power boost. Apparently there is no limit to how much chakra Naruto can absorb now because every time he seems to be down he almost immediately gets another power boost. I hope this plan amounts to more than just a head on Kyuubi powered charge. In terms of power the Juubi should be miles ahead of the Kyuubi so I have to assume there is something more than just boosting everyone's existing powers.
It seems that they were able to break Madara and Obito's connection to the Juubi but I am not sure if that will help them or not since the Juubi might be just as inclined to continue attacking them. With their connection to the Juubi severed Madara and Obito may also be even more dangerous because the battle could now be a three way war if the Juubi is free. Madara alone should be more than a match for the full power of the Kyuubi with his Wood dragon and the Ultimate Susanoo.
I am curious as to where Sasuke is and what it is that Orochimaru knows about that could change the entire course of the war. It appears that they are at a destroyed village. I am guessing that it is the former Uchiha village since Orochimaru said it is a place that Sasuke has been before. My guess is that the secret has something to do with the origin of the bloodlines. I still feel that the story of the Original Sage is incomplete, something about it still doesn't add up. Orochimaru dedicated his life to studying rare bloodlines and he even attempted things with bloodlines that Madara had not. During his research Madara must have discovered more about the connection between the Juubi, the Sage, and the bloodlines. The question is what could he know that could be used to change the current events so dramatically. Obito said before that Sasuke was the most important part of his plan and he has made every effort to enhance Sasuke's ocular abilities. Orochimaru also coveted Sasuke's eyes above all else. When Suigetsu and Juugo found Orochimaru's scrolls they immediately went to Sasuke because they believed he would be able to use them to change everything. We also know that Orochimaru was doing experiments with Danzo to combine the powers of the Uchiha and the Senju. Danzo's attempt to combine the powers himself was flawed but he implied that Kabuto would likely know how to fix the problem. Since Kabuto got most of his knowledge from Orochimaru I am willing to bet that Orochimaru had devised a way to combine the bloodlines more effectively. I think the scrolls outline Orochimaru's blueprints on how to perfectly merge the bloodlines. Since Sasuke is now the epitome of Uchiha power he is likely the idea host for joining the bloodlines. This explains why Orochimaru wanted to wait for Sasuke to grow up more before possessing him.
This also explains why Orochimaru joined Akatsuki to begin with and also gives more of a reason for why he left. Orochimaru was likely looking for the ideal Uchiha not just to obtain the sharingan but as someone who he could join the bloodlines within. At the time Itachi seemed like the perfect candidate. Kabuto implied that Orochimaru knew that Tobi was not Madara and Orochimaru also probably knew that if he could get Itachi's body, with what he knew he could easily defeat Tobi and take control of Akatsuki. When Orochimaru lost to Itachi though he also quite likely raised Tobi's suspicions of him. So he lost his ideal test subject and also revealed his treachery towards Akatsuki as a whole.

A Model Regime of Privacy Protection (Version 3.0)
Daniel J. Solove
George Washington University Law School
Chris Jay Hoofnagle
University of California, Berkeley - School of Information; University of California, Berkeley - School of Law
GWU Law School Public Law Research Paper No. 132
University of Illinois Law Review, Vol. 2006, No. 2, 2006
A series of major security breaches at companies with sensitive personal information has sparked significant attention to the problems with privacy protection in the United States. Currently, the privacy protections in the United States are riddled with gaps and weak spots. Although most industrialized nations have comprehensive data protection laws, the United States has maintained a sectoral approach where certain industries are covered and others are not. In particular, emerging companies known as "commercial data brokers" have frequently slipped through the cracks of U.S. privacy law. In this article, the authors propose a Model Privacy Regime to address the problems in the privacy protection in the United States, with a particular focus on commercial data brokers. Since the United States is unlikely to shift radically from its sectoral approach to a comprehensive data protection regime, the Model Regime aims to patch up the holes in existing privacy regulation and improve and extend it. In other words, the goal of the Model Regime is to build upon the existing foundation of U.S. privacy law, not to propose an alternative foundation. The authors believe that the sectoral approach in the United States can be improved by applying the Fair Information Practices - principles that require the entities that collect personal data to extend certain rights to data subjects. The Fair Information Practices are very general principles, and they are often spoken about in a rather abstract manner. In contrast, the Model Regime demonstrates specific ways that they can be incorporated into privacy regulation in the United States.
This is the final version of this paper (Version 3.0), earlier versions of which are also available on SSRN. This version of the paper is published in the Illinois Law Review.

I know this manga isn't super-popular just yet, but it's still one of my absoloute favourites! ^^;
Welcome to the Ao No Exorcist Fanclub! \o/
Ao no Exorcist (青の祓魔師, Ao no Futsumashi?), also known as Blue Exorcist, is a Japanese manga series written and illustrated by Kazue Kato.
The world of Ao no Exorcist consists of two dimensions joined as one, like a mirror. The first is the world in which the humans live, Assiah. The other is the world of demons, Gehenna. Ordinarily, travel between the two, and indeed any kind of contact between the two, is impossible. However the demons can pass over into this world by possessing anything that exists within it. Satan is the god of demons, but there's one thing that he doesn't have and that's a container in the human world that is powerful enough to hold him! For that purpose, he created Okumura Rin, his son from a human woman, but will his son agree to his plans, or will he become something else...? After killing Rin's guardian Father Fujimoto in an attempt to bring Rin back to the Demon world, it led to Rin's journey on becoming an Exorcist in order to defeat Satan.

The Rock is Mania boundRoyal Rumble 2013Photo courtesy: WWE
By Chad Smart
@chadsmart & @my123cents on Twitter
The 2013 Royal Rumble is inthe books. Heads up, this blog is going to be full of anger, snark andstereotypical Internet wrestling fan rage. If you�ve been reading my123centsfor the at least two weeks or listened to last week�s From the Rafter�s radioshow then you know everything we didn�t want to see happen at the Royal Rumblehappened. Before I get into the complaining let me get the positives out of theway. <>>
For the most part there
wasn�t anything bad on the show from a pure wrestling standpoint. All the
matches were laid out well and the in-ring action was perfectly acceptable. If
I weren�t one to think about the outcomes and how it plays into a bigger
picture, I wouldn�t have any issues with the show. So at least there�s that.
Add in some genuine surprises into the Royal Rumble match (Chris Jericho,
Godfather) and I would definitely think the show was worth the $15 I spent on
food at Buffalo Wild Wings while watching the show. Unfortunately I look at the
bigger picture and that picture resembles that refurbished picture of Jesus the
old lady tried to touch up.
Last Man StandingDel Rio retainsPhoto courtesy: WWE
I don�t get why Big Show andAlberto Del Rio had another Last Man Standing match instead of a differentgimmick, or straight up match. The match was perfectly fine as long as youoverlook the logical gap of every Big Show match in which you wonder why hedoesn�t punch his opponents in the face right from the beginning. While thematch was fine, I didn�t like the ending. Ricardo Rodriguez duct tapes BigShow�s feet to the bottom rope preventing Show from getting back to his feetbefore the 10 count is administered. Yes, Big Show didn�t get back to his feet,however he was clearly trying to get up. To me the referee should have realizedthere was no way for Big Show to stand while his feet were taped and thusremove the tape before making a 10 count. Guessing we�ll get a rematch on RAWor Smackdown and then Big Show will be one of the competitors in theElimination Chamber match at the next pay per view. <>>
I was surprised to see TeamHell No defeat Team Rhodes Scholars. I don�t know where Kane and Daniel Bryango from here. The Primetime Players have fallen down to non-serious contenders.The Usos and Primo/Epico haven�t been presented as potential contenders for thepast couple of months. Hunico and Camacho�s bicycle must have gotten a flat tire,as they haven�t been seen in some time. Rey Mysterio and Sin Cara returnedduring the Royal Rumble but if the rumors of the two of them squaring off atWrestlemania are true, then there�s really no reason for them to get atag-title shot. Maybe Hell No will renew their feud with the Shield. Or maybewe�ll get more Dr. Shelby and wacky skits and hope fans don�t realize the tagtitles aren�t being defended. <>>
Y2J ReturnsRoyal Rumble 2013Photo courtesy: WWE
The Royal Rumble match waswell laid out. As mentioned before, the return of Chris Jericho was a surpriseand actually played into a storyline from more than a month ago. I don�t knowif Y2J is back or if this was just a one-time event. I hope he�s not back justthrough Wrestlemania as I don�t like part-time guys taking Wrestlemania slots. <>>
The return of Goldust was anice surprise and I would really like to see a Goldust vs. Cody Rhodes match atWrestlemania. Maybe throw in Dusty Rhodes as special guest referee. For the second year in a row, KofiKingston wins the award for most creative way to avoid elimination. <>>
Cena winsRoyal Rumble 2013Photo courtesy: WWE
As exciting as the RoyalRumble match was, the ending killed not only the match but was the first stepin making me dislike the show as a whole. John Cena winning his second Rumbleforeshadowed a Rock victory and made me not interested in Wrestlemania 29. Cenais the holder of the �Being John Cena� title, which allows him a title matchwhenever he wants one. Instead of having Cena win, whoever is going tochallenge for the World title should have won the Rumble. Though I suspect thatCena winning the guaranteed title shot at Wrestlemania is a way for WWE toclaim last year�s promotion of Rock/Cena as �once in a lifetime� wasn�t a lie.�Cena just happened to win a title show and Rock is champion, it�s not like weset up that way.� <>>
During the Punk Rock match,I thought they might have Punk retain the title because a Rock victory seemedtoo obvious. If Punk retained, Rock could still win the title at EliminationChamber and go on to face Cena at Wrestlemania. Because I had this thought,when Punk pinned Rock, I wasn�t too shocked. However my spirits were deflatedand every bad thought I had came to a head once Vince McMahon came out toaddress CM Punk. <>>
Punk wins...for a minuteRoyal Rumble 2013Photo courtesy: WWE
Due to the lights going outduring the match and Rock apparently being attacked, I think maybe he justslipped, Vince claimed The Shield had helped CM Punk and pre-match stipulationdeclared if this happened Punk would be stripped of the title. The Rock grabbeda mic and said they weren�t going to end that way and demanded the match berestarted. One People�s Elbow later, the Rock ended CM Punk�s 400-day titlereign. <>>
This ending was pure dreckon many levels. First off, Vincehad no proof the Shield interfered. Who�s to say Rock didn�t arrange for thelights to be turned off so he could get Punk stripped of the title? Rockbeating Punk with one of the weakest wrestling moves in the history ofwrestling was also frustrating. Here�s a guy who has been champion for over 400days, has defeated some of the best wrestlers on the roster and he gets beatafter a movie star who�s wrestled two matches in ten years hits him with anelbow drop. Could they have made Punk�s title reign look any more pointless? <>>
Now unless there�s somemajor shake up at Elimination Chamber, The Rock will defend the WWE title atWrestlemania against John Cena. I have not heard one person who has said theywant to see this rematch. Had I taken a survey at Buffalo Wild Wings, I mayhave gotten a handful of people who were excited for the match. In my opinion,Rock/Cena was the laziest booking decision that could have been made. <>>
Seventy days untilWrestlemania and I have very little interest in the show. WWE really needs tobuild a strong undercard to make Wrestlemania 29 not be the weakest show on aweekend full of shows. Right now, I don�t have high hopes. <>>
