The new model integrating planning, program review, and resource allocation was developed in Summer 2010 and Fall 2010 by the Institutional Planning Coordination Committee (IPCC), in response to the 2010 accreditation recommendations. The key elements of the new process are annual program review, a simplified resource allocation process, and annual evaluation of the integrated model.
The integrated model and its components are evaluated annually. For information about the evaluation of planning, and other information about how the college evaluates its effectiveness and achievement of its mission, go to Evaluation of Institutional Effectiveness.

How-To Geek
11 Ways to Make Your LastPass Account Even More Secure
LastPass offers a lot of security options for locking down your account and protecting your valuable data. We're fans of LastPass here at How-To Geek – it's a great service that a lot of you already use.
You'll find most of these options in your LastPass account settings dialog – either click here to access your account settings or log into your LastPass vault and click the Settings button in the sidebar.
Restrict Logins to Specific Countries
On the General tab, you'll find an option to only allow logins from selected countries. For example, if you live in the United States, you can only allow logins to your account from the United States. If you travel, you can select other countries to allow logins from, too.
Disallow Logins From Tor
You'll also find the option to disallow logins from the Tor network here. This option is automatically enabled if you haven't logged into your account via Tor in the past 30 days.
Increase Password Iterations
You can also increase the Password Iterations (PBKDF2) value. Essentially, the more iterations you use, the longer it will take to check if any password is the correct one. A larger value will make the login process take longer (especially on slower platforms, such as older versions of Internet Explorer and mobile browsers), but brute-force attempts at cracking your password password will also be slowed. LastPass recommends you use 500 password iterations and not exceed 1000.
Set Up Two-Factor Authentication
Two-factor authentication is key for securing your LastPass account. Even if someone discovers your password, they'll need more information to log in.
We've covered setting up two-factor authentication in LastPass before. Google Authenticator (for Android and iOS) and the printable grid are free to all users. Other forms of multifactor authentication, like the physical YubiKey device, require a LastPass premium subscription.
You can also disable the Permit Offline Access option on your two-factor authentication method's setup screen. People won't be able to use the data stored on your computer to access your vault without your two-factor authentication method, but you won't be able to access your LastPass vault offline, either.
Restrict Mobile Access
You can restrict account access to only specific mobile device UUIDs – particularly helpful if your two-factor authentication method doesn't work with mobile devices. Smartphones and tablets you've logged in with appear here – enable the check box and use the Enable link to control which devices are allowed. To add a new mobile device to the list, temporarily uncheck the check box and log in with the device.
If you never log in via mobile devices, you can disable mobile access entirely by enabling this checkbox and not allowing any exceptions.
Log Off Automatically
All the LastPass security settings in the world are no good if you leave LastPass logged in 24/7 and someone gains access to your computer. To help protect yourself, you can have LastPass automatically log out after a period of time – or when you close your browser.
If you use LastPass via the LastPass website or a browser bookmarklet, you can adjust the two auto-logoff timeout settings on the General tab in your account settings.
If you use a LastPass browser extension, you'll find the appropriate options in your browser extension's settings. For example, in LastPass for Chrome, click the LastPass icon on the toolbar and select Preferences.
You can have LastPass automatically log off after your computer is idle or when all your browser windows are closed.
Enable Security Notifications
On the security tab, you can have LastPass notify you if your LastPass password ever changes, or if someone changes a website's username or password in your LastPass vault. This can alert you to unauthorized access, should it ever occur.
Re-Prompt For Password
You can also have LastPass re-prompt you for your master password for certain actions, even if you're logged in. People that gain access to your computer while you're logged in won't be able to perform any actions you restrict, but you'll have to enter your LastPass master password additional times while using LastPass.
You can also enable the Require Password Reprompt setting on a per-site basis by editing one of the saved websites in your LastPass vault.
Use a Dedicated Security Email Address
For additional security, you can have LastPass send security-related emails to a special security email address instead of your normal email address. For example, password hint emails, account recovery emails, and multifactor authentication disable emails will all be sent here.
This email should be an extra-secure email address only you know about – if someone gains access to your day-to-day email account, they won't be able to access your LastPass vault without access to your security email account.
Create One-Time Passwords to Log In From Untrusted Computers
If you're using a public computer that you don't necessarily trust, you can log in with a one-time password for increased security. These passwords are only good once – after you log in with one, it will never work again.
To generate one-time passwords, click your email address at the top-right corner of your LastPass vault and select One Time Passwords or click here to access the One Time Passwords page. From the page, you can generate one-time passwords and write them down.
While logging in, click the One Time Passwords button on the LastPass login page to access the one-time passwords page, where you can log in with a one-time password you've created.
The virtual keyboard can also help protect you against keyloggers – click the Show Keyboard link on the LastPass login screen to access it and type your password by clicking the buttons on your screen.
These two features won't protect you against more sophisticated attacks, but they do help protect against standard keyloggers.
Take the LastPass Security Challenge
The LastPass security challenge analyzes your stored passwords and tells you what you can do to make your digital life more secure – for example, if you're using duplicate passwords or weak passwords, LastPass will tell you about them. LastPass displays strength of all your passwords in the results.
At the end of the challenge, you'll get a security score and rank that you can compare to other users. To access the security challenge, click here or click the Security Check button at the left side of your LastPass vault.

Freaking love LastPass and all the great ways you can secure sensitive info like this. This is why I use their service. My Google account + LastPass … both with 2factor == pure awesomeness. Soon enough, once Dropbox supports it too, I'll have all my fav services as secure as I can get them.
Thanks for this article=) I am now re-considering using LastPass again.
What you fail to mention is that most of these options are only good if you have the paid version of LastPass.
I have the free version and I can't do any of these things.
Awesome article! Thanks!
I have the free version and was able to make all of the changes
I've had the free version for some time and was able to make the changes I wanted. It's a great service
A little morbid but you also have to think about what your family is going to do should you kick the bucket. All these are fine security measures but if your family can't get into it, they will struggle unnecessarily. I'm sure that is the last thing anyone wants to happen. Leave them instructions in your physical safe as I do. Only a few select people have the safe combo.
The only protection they need now is a physical attack one as if you are attacked for the password, unfortunatly all these security measures become useless.
I have an "Open This When I am Dead" file on the desktop of my home and office computer. It gives directions on where to find my LastPass master password. I wrote it down, put it in an envelope and placed it in a secure spot inside my condo. The first line in the file says, "Remember I have cats." It then goes on to list where to find the will, tax receipts etc. Who to call. Who are my banker, lawyer etc. What recurring payments to expect. Etc. The file just keeps growing.
Free account user, everything I tried worked.
I have had problems with two-factor authentication in Gmail. "One-factor" is good enough for me. (I can't remember the exact details of the problem I had. It was a giant PITA.)
As for getting the password through coercion, that would not be a hard feature to implement. What you do is set a dummy password and remember that as well. Give the person the dummy password. Then you set the client up to contact authorities on your behalf if the dummy password is used, and then allow access, but track all changes, so if the person changes passwords, they can easily be changed back. But I think site owners (e.g. Facebook) need to support dummy passwords, so you would have a whole second set of dummy passwords maintained by LastPass. So if you login with the dummy password on Facebook, all your posts and changes get sandboxed — they show up (don't want to tip the attacker off if he logs in as someone else) but can all be rolled back with one command when the real password is used. But security is always a cat and mouse game. We just try to stay ahead of most attacks to serve most people.
Please, Please add a "Logoff after X time period" to the browser extension for Dolphin Browser for Android. Please.
Lastpass is simply the best, most important, app I have ever used.
If you don't have it, get it. There is nothing better, period.
Very helpful summary of some important Lastpass elements.
Big thanks!
I've been using Lastpass Sesame (with an encrypted flash drive) for the past 3 years and it's a killer combination. I might suggest adding one additional point. Well, its more of an important reminder really….
Have a REALLY good, long, master password that is both impossible to easily guess and equally a challenge for those attempting a 'brute force attack'.
Thanks again…
Last Pass dosen't work right with Bank of America. Any suggestions?

Are Naruto, bleach and one piece on break this week?
Yes there is a break this week. The chapter we may get sometime today or tomorrow doesn't actually go on sale in Japan until next week. This also means the break until the next chapter will be twice as long.
I think some of the characters are going to start dying around naruto to make him fall into despair, neji, perhaps he will find out about tsunade, then i dont know probably sakura????....i think naruto's buttons need to be pushed for him to continue fighting....i'm just sad neji died, i liked him. although i would have liked to see him die in gai or rock lee's arms....more tragic..... :'(
Miau, Miau, Miau.....prrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!!!!!!!!!!
So actually we get the releases very early. Chapters are out btw
well done, Hinata!! this chapter is so good! I love it.
Ah crap, why Neji? Hell i thought this going to be something along the lines of the old generation sacrificing themselves for the new one.
RIP Neji, you earned it.

The Essential Toronto Maple Leafs Goal
Danny Gray
August 31 2012 10:19AM
If you're signing pictures of a goal, you know it's a big deal.
A continuation of The Leafs Nation's 'Essentials' series. For our favourite games, click here. For Bitter Leaf's full Essentials series at Puck Daddy, click here.
Danny: Mats Sundin's Game Six goal in 2002 to send it to OT
JP: Joe Nieuwendyk's second Game Seven goal in 2004
Steve: Any of Steve Thomas' OT winners from the playoffs
Ryan: Sundin's 500th
Cam: Sundin's 500th
Before we discuss the above goals, I'd like to mention a few that should definitely be given consideration. Bill Barilko's goal to win the Cup, Sittler's 6th goal on his 10 point night (This game should have been given consideration as The Essential Leafs Game) Doug Gilmour's OT wrap-around goal, Borschevky's OT winner against the Wings. Once again there are so many possible answers to this question that it all depends on your age, and favourite player biases.
Seriously, watch all 6 of Sittler's goals here. What a night.
Oh, baby.

Die protection module has up to 32 sensor inputs
Cieco Inc. now offers up to 32 sensor inputs for the die protection module of the Automator II press controller, twice as many as previously supplied. Each sensor can be programmed individually.
Each bank of eight sensors can be programmed to be global (apply to each job), eliminating repetitive programming for each tool in the press.
The controller detects sensor faults, displaying the name and type of the sensor; time-stamps the fault; and stores the information for later date sourcing.

Most call us miners and we're proud to answer, "Yes." It's not a job most want to do, and many can't do it.
We saddle up every day with our belts, meters, cap lamp, self rescuer and tools. We sound like a string of mules descending into the Grand Canyon. Our days are spent mining coal deep in the mountains of Emery and Carbon counties where we call it, Home Away From Home.
Many ask, "Why do you do it?" We do it because it's in our blood and we're good at it. Most of us never leave the mines for employment. It becomes our life work. We also provide a service to our fellow man.
When you flip that light switch in the morning, turn on the coffee pot or dry your hair, you're able to do that because of the electricity our coal provides. Many, I have heard, ask "How could you work in these places?" We will never be able to explain it to you. It's not just the money. No. It's much more. It's our way of helping this world go around every day.
I do have one concern or even a prayer, that a year from now, will we still remember these nine men at Crandall Canyon? I know I will. Yes, more men have lost their lives, In my time in the mines I have lost three friends and I will never forget any of them. There were 200 men at Winter Quarters, 175 at Castle Gate, 27 at the Wilberg Mine, and many more whom have given their lives. They are, and will always be, our heros. We hope they will be yours also.

It's a curious homecoming for Vince, the son nobody seems to remember. Violence is never far from the surface as his unexpected return uncovers a deep, dark secret that triggers catastrophe in Sam Shepard's Pulitzer Prize-winning Buried Child.
An L.A.

I cover entrepreneurs, focusing on global and social entrepreneurship.
What is to become of the thousands of massive squatter settlements that have sprouted tumor-like from the world's biggest cities, and to their nearly 1 billion residents? Will they transform themselves into functional working-class neighborhoods through the twin miracles of microscale entrepreneurship and macroscale infrastructure investment? Or will they spiral ever downward into drug-fueled violence, endemic disease and seething social unrest?
@joelkotkin on Twitter (Contributor)
The triumphalism surrounding slums and megacities disturbs me. People are right to celebrate the amazing resilience of residents living in massive slums, but many megacity boosters miss a more important point: that the proliferation of these sorts of communities may not be desirable or even necessary.
Cities are getting larger, particularly in the developing world, but that does not make them better. Megacities in developing countries should be seen for what they are: a tragic replaying of the worst aspects of the mass urbanization that occurred previously in the West. They play to the nostalgic tendency among urbanists to look back with fondness on the crowded cities of early-20th-century North America and Europe. Unfortunately, such places were often not so nice for the people who actually lived in them.
Most slum dwellers move to megacities not for the bright lights but to escape hopeless poverty in their villages. Some argue that these migrants are better off than previous slum dwellers, since they ride motorcycles and have cellphones. But access to the wonders of transportation and information technology is unlikely to compensate for a host of maladies, including AIDS, urban violence, poorly built and unsafe housing, and "the neglected epidemic" of road-related injuries.

The flip side is that as slum dwellers grow more prosperous and politically powerful, they may be in a position to demand solutions.
@gypsyguyde commented
Honestly, as much as I would like to trumpet the great economic growth that's unfolding in these megacities, the future looks scary. In India the traffic situation, infrastructure and civil discipline has only worsened over time, notwithstanding positive economic growth.

Each day 1,370 people arrive in Chongqing, China, the majority of them destitute and looking for any kind of work. At first most new arrivals make just subsistence wages. But they come to this city, once the capital of China, because they are able to earn enough to send a few yuan home to families still in the countryside.
A roaring economy means that no one needs to stay poor for long. Indeed, the city's officials believe they can avoid the fates of Rio and Mumbai. "There will be no slums in Chongqing, unlike India or Brazil," Huang Qifan, a vice mayor of the city, told an Indian newspaper. "Rapid economic growth means farmers can quickly find work, so they won't live in poor conditions."
Some say urbanization is the most important trend in China's history, as poor peasants transform themselves into swanky urbanites. There are currently 88 cities with a population over 1 million in China, and more are on the way. Chongqing, the fastest-growing city on the planet a half-decade ago, thinks it can urbanize for at least another two decades.

Don't look for top-down government initiatives to ease the transition, however. Private enterprise has been the engine of China's miraculous growth since 1978, and nothing-to-lose migrants are the hope of tomorrow in Chongqing–as well as of China itself. Chongqing can avoid creating enormous slums, like Rio's 600 favelas, if it can wean itself off government money and instead look to all the ambitious peasants who want to go into business for themselves.
@hcoster on Twitter (FORBES)
No slums in Chongqing? I find that statement overly optimistic.
@gordongchang on Twitter
You're right. One thing about China is that, because of sloppy upkeep and poor construction, buildings become rundown in a few short years. Chongqing, like other Chinese cities, is building future slums at a quick pace.
@felicityclarke (Contributor)
For many residents of Rio's favelas, the concept of a single job for life doesn't exist, even for skilled or semiskilled workers. People make a living based on the opportunities that are available at any given moment.
Jaime Conceição Silva, 54, has lived in Prazeres, the favela on the upper hillside of the bohemian neighborhood of Santa Teresa, for the past 31 years. He works in two shops downtown and as a parking attendant at one of the neighborhood's restaurants. He studied to be an electrician and is also a builder by trade. He learned on the job as a builder's assistant and acquired the skills that allow him to renovate the often poorly constructed houses in the favela.
"Here it's more about renovating houses, not building from scratch," he explains. "Someone buys or rents a house and wants to do it up. There's always a market for this type of work. It never stops."
@hcoster on Twitter
Do people like Jaime–who have consistent, albeit unpredictable work–have access to savings accounts and, if so, do they have enough money to use them?
@zezinho commented
Most people in favelas do not have bank accounts. We now have three banks in my slum, but we have about 300,000 people who live here and over 6,000 businesses of all types. I am one who lives in the slum, and I don't have bank accounts, but this is okay.

From high above, looking over a limitless landscape of rusty tin roofs with precariously wired television antennas, it's tempting to accept the summary statistics about a place like Kibera. Kibera, located in Nairobi, is among the largest slums in Africa, if not the world. But at the street level, global statistics break down, and the nuances become more important. On the street, Kibera's estimated 1 million people become distinct individuals, and you quickly forget you're in a place where there is only one toilet per 250 people, over 50% unemployment and no formal trash collection.
Urban Outfitter: Siemens bets on explosive growth in the world's largest cities.
New Lands of Opportunity: Urban slums are better than rural poverty.
Megaslums: Salvation or Sinkhole, a Forbes conversation.
Kibera is populated by community leaders, idle youth, entrepreneurs, company men, factory workers, land barons, long-winded storytellers, thieves, sweet old ladies, rambunctious children, drunks, dedicated housewives, roaming street jesters and educated professionals. More often than not, one individual wears a few of these hats, and the line between criminal and entrepreneur, for example, becomes blurred.
Even categories have subcategories. Take entrepreneurship, for example, which has received a lot of attention over the past several years. The recent fascination–as well as subsequent backlash–around microfinance has helped to generate momentum behind the idea that entrepreneurship is a solution to poverty. There are indeed great opportunities via entrepreneurship and, for some people, it is most certainly a viable path to economic stability. For others, however, it's only a stopgap measure while they search for a more stable job. And for others still, it's not helpful at all because they may not have the personality type, technical skills or appetite for risk required to be successful.

On a deserted road on the outer slopes of Kenya's Ngong Hills, where Nairobi residents relax on Saturday afternoons, Joseph Okello was talking to me. He wanted to be a slum dweller.
The area Okello came from didn't have enough jobs to support its growing population. And his family needed more income, or at least a reduction in food consumption. Okello knew that he needed to carve out his own future. He joined thousands of other people who headed to Nairobi, the capital of Kenya. His goal was to get to the Kibera slum, in the heart of Nairobi, and get a job.
When Okello arrived at Kibera, he faced a harsh economy. He met a man who told him that there was a $25 entrance price–the equivalent of key money. (Yes, slums, like heaven, have a gate.) Rent started at $7.50 a month; a family unit cost $80. He began looking for a job and learned that he had to pay $25 to apply for the most menial position.
Okello did not have that kind of money, so he climbed down from his first aspiration. Just as suburbs and subdivisions radiate out of the metropolis, so do slums. Living conditions deteriorate as one follows the sprawl. The entrance prices, wages and rents decline.
Proud and free, Okello ended up on hard rock in the bare and barren Ngong Hills. He had decided against sending any money home, and used his savings to buy a few basic tools. He was determined to become an entrepreneur carpenter in Kibera, selling on the roadside. I gave him a lift and some encouragement.
@chelinaodbert commented
I agree that encouragement is a much needed ingredient in the development of an entrepreneur. However, I would argue that what's needed more is specific direction and advice–not necessarily from foreigners. Mr. Okello likely benefited from the encouragement he received but could have also used some ideas for how to differentiate himself from the 50 established carpenters already along Ngong Road.

What is the future of megacities? When conditions become oppressive enough, people generally respond by finding a better place to live. Poor village dwellers in Bihar, India may not all stay in the countryside, but they–and many better-skilled immigrants–may find other, less intense urban options.

New Lands of Opportunity: Urban slums are better than rural poverty.
Megaslums: Salvation or Sinkhole, a Forbes conversation.
Recent research suggests that these immigrants will increasingly move to the urban fringe or to smaller cities. A massive research effort published earlier this year for the Lincoln Institute of Land Policy found that since 1990 "built-up area densities" have been dropping by roughly 2% a year, including in the developing world.
Rather than foster an urban form that demands heroic survival, perhaps we should focus on ways to create cities that offer a more healthful and even pleasant life for their citizens.
@michaelnoer on Twitter (FORBES)
It is not inevitable that the planet's slum dwellers will bootstrap their way out of extreme poverty, nor is it inevitable that they will stay mired in filth and hopelessness.
MIT economists Abhijit Banerjee and Esther Duflo remind us that the "field of antipoverty policy is littered with the detritus of instant miracles that proved less than miraculous." Blind faith that a billion microscale entrepreneurs will blossom if just given the basics of clean water, cheap electricity and nonusurious credit is surely wrong. But denying those services to an eighth of the world's human beings is even more so.

"I wanted a new pair of casual flip flops for this summer and I thought these looked cute. To my surprise they are VERY comfortable. There is support at the arch of the foot that I usually dont get from "everyday" flip flops so if you are wondering why these are a bit more expensive then other ones rest assured it's for good reason. I am usually a size 7 and that size fits perfectly."

Planet by planet, darkness creeps across the galaxy. Among warriors and generals, among ordinary beings living in far-flung worlds, the fear will not go away: We are losing this war. . . .
Anakin Skywalker feels it, too. The Separatist Alliance, with ruthlessness and treachery, is beating the Republic to every strategic target. But after a costly clash with General Grievous for the planet Kothlis, Anakin has a mission that will focus his anxious mind. Alongside Obi-Wan Kenobi, he is posing as a long-lost native of Lanteeb, an impoverished world on the Outer Rim. This seemingly unimportant planet has drawn the interest of the Sepsand Anakin and Obi-Wan soon discover the disturbing reason: A scientist enslaved by General Lok Durd is drawing on Lanteebs one natural resource for a devastating bioweapon. Now Anakin and Obi-Wan have entered the eye of a storm. Their presence has been exposed, Lok Durds plans unveiled, and a fight has begun for survival behind enemy linesand a chance of winning a war that must be fought at any cost.
More in the Clone Wars series we have. And listen to all of our Star Wars titles you can!
©2010 Karen Miller (P)2010 Random House
"Great story"
I don't know why people are complaing, this was a great book to listen to. This series gives a lot of insight to Kenobi and Skywalker. I don't think Anakin's miraculous machine skills are overdone in this book, it's emphasized in many other books the great command he has over machines and karen miller just puts his skills to use in the book.
"If you buy this one, you must buy the sequel"
This is only half of the story of Clone Wars Gambit. The whole story consist of Clone Wars Gambit: Stealth and Clone Wars Gambit: Siege. It's really a long mission.
If you can't find the time to do it right, how will you find time to do it over
"Oops out sequence"
Great storyline, I read them out of sequence,recommend this storyline for all star wars fans
"good storyline poor character portrayal"
I listen to a lot of audio books because of the amount of time I spend on the road. I have enjoyed the fate of the Jedi unabridged series so much I thought I would give the clone war series a try. The storyline is good but the dialog between characters especially the Jedi are so hard to listen to sometimes I had to cut it off. Other than that if you are a star wars fan and have a free credit it's not a bad choice.... if you have already listened to everything else.
"Recommend for the die hard fans"
Loved the story and voices. Interesting perspectives on Obi-Wan and Anakin's partnership and personal struggles.
"enjoyed the story"
I enjoyed the story, I looking forward to the continuation. I am wanting to see how it ends..
"Good book for Obi and Ani fans"
This is a fun listen for anyone who wants to see more of Obi-wan and Anakin's relationship. It gives you real good insight of their toughts and emotions, which are not always those you'd expect.
This book is a two-parter so it ends abruptly and leaves you wandering just what happened next tough...
"Loved it. Way less cheesy than the TV show"
Very entertaining if you like Obi-wan/Anakin and wanted a more mature version of some of those short young adult Padawan novels I loved as a kid.
This book definitely started slow and built even slower but was so well written and did an excellent job getting into the characters heads. You'll need to listen to the next book to make it worth it tho since the story just cuts off.
University administrator. Commuter cyclist. Dad, husband. Loves books of course. Aspiring Jedi Knight and Warder.
"Some merit but lacks panache"
So I'm a certifiable Star Wars junkie. Not the worlds biggest fan but I've probably read about 40 or expanded SW novels over the years. Some are great, many are ok, some are downright atrocious. This is in the ok category.
What I liked:
- Really liked the dynamic between Obi Wan and Anakin. Miller actually does the best job I've read of the many authors who've tried to tackle this tandem. She gives the relationship depth that most other books lack.
- I really like how she portrayed the emotional disaster that is Anakin. This is a big criticism of the Clone Wars. While the TV show provides glimpses of Skywalker's psychology that leads him to the Dark Side, Miller does an excellent job of portraying this character's many emotional foibles that eventually lead to his fall. I see some people writing this is over done but I appreciated the opportunity of exploring his instability.
- This is one of the more gritty SW novels I've read. Kinda reflects the SW universe where Han shot first (if you're a fan you'll know what I mean)
What I didn't like:
- While the advantages of writing a story about Obi Wan and Anakin are obvious, it's also really tricky because there are so many other stories and SW cannon around these characters. Yoda and Bail Organa too. The author takes liberties and this results in much gnashing of teeth. You could have wrote this story with a couple of secondary characters and still had a fine story but not creating inconsistencies with the ample material that covers these two main characters.
- The overall story plodded along and was predicable. It definitely didn't hook me in.
- Why are all bad guys so stupid in SW (Thrawn excepted). Despite having an ultra secure facility, the Jedi basically have full run of the place. They crawl through several hundred meters of air vents - really! Air vents is gotta be the oldest trick in the book! But I guess if you think about it, this is exactly what Han and Luke did in the first movie on the Death Star, but I digress. Sigh... SW isn't perfect.
- The author relies way too much upon Anakin's technical skills; we know that he's handy with fixing things, but some of the situations he resolves with this skill verge on silly.
So in a nutshell, it was ok read. Certainly not the greatest SW novel I've read, but an better than average attempt that gets the Obi Wan-Anakin relationship done right.
BTW: the narrator was great. I think it's the gentleman from the Clone Wars. A nice touch!
"Karen Miller should not be allowed to write."
Just terrible. I'd give it 1 star, but gave it an extra just because it's Star Wars. The author is awful and has another stinker (Star Wars: The Clone Wars: Wild Space) in the Star Wars universe.
Do people this bad have deals in place that allow them to write more books after the ones they've already written get largely bad reviews (which means it's not just me)? I got this without noticing the author's name. Otherwise I would have avoided it.

He was an awesome man of God, loving husband, providing father, great grandpa and a great, great friend to everyone who knew him. Terry passed away on Dec. 22, 2007 at the age of 58, in St. George due to an on going battle of lung disease.
He was blessed to be born June 13, 1949 to Milton Ezell and Muriel Jones in Alabama. On July 18, 1981 Terry married Jodie Lee from Price. He loved her so much.
Terry was a boilermaker for nearly 35 years and traveled to almost every state then he retired in 2004. He enjoyed playing golf with everyone especially his sons and the old timers in Price. Terry had a passionate heart for the jail ministry he was able to do while still in Price.
Terry was a member of New Life Ministries for many years before moving to St. George. When Terry gave his heart to the Lord, God opened his eyes and his understanding that Jesus was who he said he was and that became more real to him than life itself. Knowing about Jesus is different than experiencing Jesus and Terry experienced Jesus. It changed his life from that moment on.
The true blessings of Terry's life were his wife, children, grandchildren, son-in-law and daughter-in-law as well as the rest of his family. We will never forget your unconditional love honey.
Survived by his wife Jodie Ezell, St. George; parents Joyce and Milton Ezell, Louisiana; Muriel Jones, Louisiana; Dale and Laraine Lee, Price; daughter Corin, (Nathan) Howerton; sons James (Chelly) Ezell; Brian Ezell all from St. George and grandchildren Deidra Vigil, Shayley Dunn, Isaac and Alex Ezell, Bry'Lee, Thomas and Lily Howerton, and Taviana Quintana. He has five precious sisters Lynda, Patti, Cindy, Nina and Bonnie along with three wonderful brothers Greg, Barry and Pete. Terry had many loving nieces, nephews and extended family. Terry was preceded in death by one brother Ronnie Ezell.
Services were held at Mitchell's Chapel on Monday Dec. 31, 2007 at 12 noon. Family was available one hour prior to service. Interment, Cliffview Cemetery.
Born to D. Ray Hult and Ronda Nielsen Hult, Dec. 22, 1976; and passed away Dec. 24, 2007. Jeff returned to his Father in Heaven unexpectedly just after our family Christmas Eve party. He came to us at Christmas and left us at Christmas.
Jeff attended Olympus High, Wasatch High (Heber), and later Dixie State College. He worked in the family business as a general contractor; his largest construction project was the construction of 50 homes at Green Field in Heber. Currently Jeff was managing the construction of two homes in Driggs, Idaho. He was also excited about building his own home in the spring. Jeff was a talented manager and builder.
For Jeff, life was a grand adventure, and he enjoyed hunting, camping, boating, scuba diving, and golfing. He had a great love for his family, especially his siblings, nieces, nephews, and his dog Lexi. Jeff is loved dearly and will be greatly missed by his family and many friends. We look forward to the day when we'll be together again.
He is now united with his grandparents, Deloy Hult and Veda Julian (Hult), and his grandfather Ivan Nielsen. Jeff is survived by his mother and father; brothers: Mark (Holly Lynn), Eric, Ronn; sisters: Kristine (Ryan) Redd, Kassie Hult, and Holly Ann (Mike) Mahoney.
There was a viewing Sunday, Dec. 30, 2007 from 6-8 p.m. at Olpin-Hoopes Funeral Home, 288 North Main, in Heber. Funeral services were held at the Midway First Ward, 200 South 250 East, in Midway, Utah, at 1 p.m., with a viewing prior from 11:30 a.m.-12:30 p.m.
HUNTINGTON- Patricia Lea Brown Harris, age 94, passed away Dec. 27, 2007 at Shady Grove Hospital in Rockville, Md.
She was born April 8, 1913 in Huntington, Utah to John William and Minnie Hall Brown.
Married Michael Joseph Harris, June 16, 1928 in Salt Lake City; he died Aug. 14, 1982.
She was a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Pat traveled extensively during her lifetime and for the past 20 years she resided in Maryland with her son.
She is survived by her son, James E. (Anna) Harris, Gaithersburg, Md.; daughters, Lenore Jean Dauphine, Reno, Nev., Luana Lou Lucero, Missouri; brother, Steve Brown, Loa, Utah; 10 grandchildren, 12 great-grandchildren and one great-great-grandson.

The star has given $175,000 away in the last week.
Charlie Sheen seems to be playing Santa in a big way these days.
Not only did he give Lindsay Lohan $100,000 — and he's still waiting for a "thank you" from her, he says — the Anger Management star wrote a check for $75,000 on Sunday to help a 10-year-old girl named Jasmine Faulk beat cancer, reports E! News.
A copy of the check from Charlie's "Pocket Account" was posted on Facebook.
Charlie's stunt double, Eddie Braun, cut a $25,000 check to the Hermosa Beach Police Officers Association (Jasmine's dad, Everitt, is an officer), which is raising funds for Jasmine's treatment of a rare form of pediatric cancer called alveolar rhabdomyosarcoma.

Axia3 ProDigestive Antacid relieves occassional digestive discomfort, sour stomach, indigestion and heartburn. Axia3 ProDigestive Antacid is also great for freshening breath! Axia3 ProDigestive Antacid tablet rolls are great for on-the-go quick access to heartburn relief. Fast Heartburn Relief ProDigestive Enzymes Fresh Breath About Axia3Axia3 ProDigestive Antacid is the first ProDigestive antacid supplement to deliver fast-acting relief from occasional heartburn, while promoting healthy digestion. Axia3 ProDigestive Antacid is ideal for people that suffer from occasional heartburn due to diet, stress, exercise, and other causes. Axia3 ProDigestive Antacid is very different from traditional antacids because it is formulated with an exclusive blend of natural ProDigestive enzymes that work with your body's digestive system. Your body naturally produces digestive enzymes such as a-amylase and pepsin that are activated by gastric acid, in order to let your body digest food and nutrients. Traditional products neutralize heartburn by lowering the level of acid in the stomach, which renders your digestive enzymes ineffective. Axia3 ProDigestive Antacid is specially formulated to relieve occasional heartburn while delivering ProDigestive enzymes to your digestive system which continue working to break down food and absorb nutrients that your body needs to stay healthy. Axia3 ProDigestive Antacid is not a Drug! It is a natural approach to heartburn relief that works with the body's natural digestive process. Understanding HeartburnHeartburn and other digestive discomforts like indigestion, sour stomach and bloating afflict millions of people each year. In fact, over 100 million people in the U.S. each year suffer from heartburn - and nearly 25 million people suffer from heartburn every day. The stomach releases gastric acid to naturally activate digestive enzymes that are needed to break down food and nutrients during digestion. A muscle known as the lower esophageal sphincter (LES) keeps the gastric acid and active enzymes secured in the stomach. If the LES is relaxed or weakened, gastric acid can seep back into the esophagus, causing irritation that we know as heartburn. Traditional antacids neutralize heartburn by raising the pH level in the stomach in order to stop the release of gastric acid. Newer classes of drugs such as proton pump inhibitors (PPI) altogether shut down the stomach pumps that release gastric acid for up to 24 hours. Halting gastric acid inhibits digestion and can cause abdominal discomfort such as constipation and also deprive the body of nutrients such as protein, carbohydrates and lipids. Heartburn ReliefAxia3 delivers a dual Calcium Carbonate plus Sodium Bicarbonate combination upon contact with the esophagus… Sodium Bicarbonate = Fast-acting relief Calcium Carbonate = Long-lasting relief Promotes Healthy DigestionAxia3's Trigestive Enzymatic Formula utilizes an exclusive blend of natural ProDigestive enzymes that continue working to promote digestion… Protease: Helps break down proteins Amylase: Helps breakdown carbohydrates Lipase: Helps break down essential fats and oils Innovation Out of NecessityAfter years of suffering with frequent heartburn and the digestive disorder diverticulitis, Axia3 founder and CEO, Ryan Doheny, struggled with finding a safe, effective and tolerable solution for his heartburn and digestive discomfort. Understanding that heartburn is intrinsically linked to the human digestive system, he devised a product solution that effectively relieves heartburn discomfort, but more importantly, promotes on-going digestive health benefits through the use of natural ProDigestive enzymes that are essential to proper digestion and good long-term health. FAQs Is Axia3 ProDigestive Antacid gluten free?Yes, Axia3 ProDigestive Antacid is gluten free. Where is Axia3 ProDigestive Antacid manufactured?Axia3 ProDigestive Antacid is made in the United States. They are proud to produce this product in their own country, keeping manufacturing jobs in America. What causes heartburn?Heartburn is the result of irritation caused by stomach acid that splashes from the stomach through the lower esophageal sphincter into the esophagus, which is located near the chest area. While many factors can trigger heartburn, the most common reasons for heartburn are associated with diet, stress, chronic disease (e.g., diabetes), exercise-induced acid reflex and pregnancy. While heartburn can occur at any age, the incidences of heartburn tend to increase with age and most frequently occur among individuals over the age of 40. Why does the body produce gastric acid?The body produces gastric acid as part of the digestive process. The brain instructs a specific enzyme in the stomach to release gastric acid into the stomach when food enters the body. Gastric acid is needed to activate on contact other digestive enzymes found in the stomach that are needed to help break down food and nutrients before they can be fully digested in the lower intestinal tract. What role do digestive enzymes serve in the digestive process?Digestive enzymes are the workhorses of the digestive system. Many people mistakenly believe that gastric acid alone breaks down food. In fact, it is the enzymes that facilitate digestion by causing chemical reactions in the body to break down and absorb food and nutrients. Digestion is facilitated by many enzymes, with each having a specific job along the digestive chain. Enzymes begin working on digestion the second food enters your mouth and comes into contact with saliva containing enzymes to prepare food for the journey through the body. Why is the digestive system important?When you eat foods - such as bread, meat, and vegetables - they are not in a form that the body can use as nourishment. These foods must be broken down into smaller bits so that the nutrients can be properly absorbed by the body. Digestion is the process by which food and drink are broken down into their smallest parts by digestive liquids and enzymes so that the body can use them to build and nourish cells and to provide your body with energy. Healthy digestion is also closely linked with maintaining a healthy and strong immune system. What makes Axia3 ProDigestive Antacid different?Axia3 ProDigestive Antacid is very different from traditional antacids and acid reducers such as proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) and H2 receptor antagonists (H2RA) because it takes into account the whole digestive process. Because the presence of key enzymes are needed to help digest food and nutrients, they designed Axia3 ProDigestive Antacid to provide the fast heartburn relief of a traditional antacid coupled with prodigestive enzymes that aid in continuing the digestive process even after heartburn-causing gastric acid is neutralized. How quickly does Axia3 ProDigestive Antacid relieve heartburn pain?Axia3 ProDigestive Antacid goes to work on contact. The duel combination of sodium bicarbonate and calcium carbonate quickly deliver soothing relief to the esophagus, while neutralizing gastric acid upon entering the stomach. How does Axia3 ProDigestive Antacid promote healthy digestion?Axia3 ProDigestive Antacid contains an exclusive blend of natural ProDigestive enzymes that constitute their patented Trigestive enzymatic formula. This exclusive enzyme blend is the key method by which critical nutrients such as protein, carbohydrates and essential fats & oils are broken down for subsequent absorption by the body. What is Xylitol?Xylitol is a sugar alcohol sweetener used as a naturally occurring sugar substitute. Xylitol is absorbed more slowly than sugar and does not contribute to high blood sugar levels or the hyperglycemia caused by insufficient insulin response. As such, it is considered a diabetic-friendly sweetener by many countries around the world. Xylitol is also believed to provide other health benefits such as improved oral health, promoting improved boned density, defense against certain infections and possibly transmitting from mother to child during pregnancy defense against bacteria known to cause tooth decay during the first two years of a child's life. How many tablets of Axia3 ProDigestive Antacid can I take? Depending on severity of acute heartburn pain, you may take between 2 to 4 tablets for immediate relief. You may take up to 10 tablets in one 24-hour period. However, it is a good idea to talk to your doctor if you have any questions regarding your individual condition. Why should I use Axia3 ProDigestive Antacid instead of a traditional antacid?Traditional antacids stop heartburn pain on contact by neutralizing the acid in the esophagus while increasing the pH level in the stomach to neutralize gastric acid, but they do not provide additional assistance to the body to digest any food remaining in the stomach. This could result in indigestion and intestinal discomfort. Axia3 ProDigestive Antacid provides the immediate relief from heartburn pain on contact, while promoting proper digestion with the patented Trigestive enzymatic formula. The following video shows you how: Why should I use Axia3 ProDigestive Antacid instead of an acid reducer for occasional heartburn?Acid reducers work through the bloodstream to shut down the pumps in the body through which gastric acid is released, thus, altogether inhibiting chemical reactions with enzymes required for proper digestion. While acid reducers are very effective in treating frequently recurring heartburn and damage resulting from advanced acid reflux, in most cases they should only be taken for a short period of time, and in cases of occasional heartburn in the absence of any damage to the esophagus, a doctor should be consulted to determine if they should even be taken at all. Axia3 ProDigestive Anaticid provides a more ideal solution to occasional heartburn, coupled with the digestive aid benefits of the Trigestive enzymatic formula. Does Axia3 ProDigestive Antacid treat gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD)?No. Axia3 ProDigestive Antacid is not designed to treat GERD. It is intended for the relief of occasional heartburn, indigestion and upset stomach. You should consult your doctor to diagnostically determine if you suffer from GERD. It seems like there are many recent studies indicating certain risks in taking proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) for heartburn. Is this true?Yes. Recent studies analyzed by the Archives of Internal Medicine suggest that up 69% of all PPI prescriptions are unwarranted and that consumers might be overusing PPIs due to misunderstanding the proper use of these products. While PPIs are very effective in treating frequent heartburn and advanced acid reflux conditions such as GERD, long-term use of such products for the treatment of occasional heartburn may lead to increased rates of Clostridium difficile diarrheal infection, pneumonia, bone fractures, and negative interaction with antiplatelet medications such as Plavix. As such, Axia3 ProDigestive Antacid is an ideal choice for occasional heartburn, as it works on contact and is not known to negatively interact with any other medications or supplements. However, it is recommended that individuals consult their doctor if they suffer from frequent heartburn despite using antacids for relief and/or making lifestyle adjustments, as this might be a sign of a more serious condition such as GERD that might need treatment with a PPI. What is acid rebound?Certain heartburn remedies, notably acid suppressing PPIs and H2 blockers, can cause a condition known as acid rebound. Some individuals experience acid rebound immediately after stopping the use of acid suppressors, which can cause the stomach's parietal cells to overcompensate in the production of stomach acid released by its proton pumps. While certain studies show that acid rebound does resolve itself on its own within a few weeks, people suffering from acid rebound can use a remedy such as Axia3 ProDigestive Antacid in the interim to alleviate the heartburn pain without having to resort to the immediate reuse of an acid suppressor. Does a low level of gastric acid in the stomach during digestion worsen heartburn?Gastric acid is an essential component of the digestive process. When antacids and acid suppressors lower the level of gastric acid with undigested food still in the stomach, the brain can be triggered into sending signals via the nervous system to the pancreas to releases the hormone gastrin. When the high pH level gastrin is released into the body, the stomach releases low pH level gastric acid to balance it out. Too much gastrin, however, can cause the lower esophageal sphincter (LES) to become relaxed, thus possibly allowing released gastric acid to splash back into the esophagus and causing further heartburn. Axia3 ProDigestive Antacid, however, neutralizes heartburn on contact while providing the prodigestive enzymes the body needs to support digestion of food and nutrients, thus reducing the potential of the negative overproduction cycle of gastrin and gastric acid. The Axia3 StoryAxia3 ProDigestive Antacid is an advanced heartburn relief supplement formula that was born out of necessity. After years of suffering with frequent heartburn and the digestive disorder diverticulitis, Natrica founder and CEO struggled with finding a safe, effective and tolerable solution for his heartburn pain and digestive discomfort. Understanding that heartburn is intrinsically linked to the human digestive system, he devised a product solution that not only quickly and effectively neutralizes heartburn pain, but more importantly, promotes on-going digestive health benefits through the use of natural ProDigestive enzymes essential to proper digestion and good long-term health. Thus, Axia3 was born! Axia3 ProDigestive Antacid is formulated with an effective combination of sodium bicarbonate and calcium carbonate that deliver a potent double-dose of fast- and long-lasting heartburn relief. But that's not all. Axia3 ProDigestive Antacid is formulated with an exclusive blend of protease, amylase and lipase prodigestive enzymes that constitute their patented Trigestive enzymatic formula. With the Trigestive enzymatic formula, Axia3 ProDigestive Antacid not only neutralizes heartburn, but continues working with your body's digestive system to ensure that food and essential nutrients are broken down and properly absorbed by the body. Without a doubt, they assure you that Axia3 ProDigestive Antacid provides effective relief you need from occasional heartburn, indigestion and upset stomach! All Axia3 ProDigestive Antacid paper wrappers, boxes, display trays and tins are recyclable in most municipalities.

Skip to comments.Dems move to force Republicans to reopen the government
Posted on 10/04/2013 11:23:59 AM PDT by redreno
House Democratic leaders believe they have hit on a new way to potentially force House Republican leaders into allowing a vote on a clean CR funding the government without any defunding of Obamacare attached.
At last count, as many as two dozen House Republicans appear prepared to vote for a clean CR. With Democrats included, that means a majority of the House of Representatives would vote right now to reopen the government. But the House GOP leadership wont allow such a vote.
Dems have hit on a way to use a discharge petition, which forces a House vote if a majority of Representatives signs it, to try to force the issue. Previously, it was thought this could not work, because a discharge petition takes 30 legislative days to ripen, so if this were tried with the clean CR that passed the Senate, this couldnt bear fruit until some time in November.
(Excerpt) Read more at washingtonpost.com ...
over Shark infested water.
WaPo's lost their mojo.
Only the most stupid (e.g., in side the beltway)dorks believe them any more.
Warning to Republicans...do this and you're history.
"Warning to Republicans...do this and youre history."
I agree.
Wishful thinking by Dems. Hey, how's that "We Won't Negotiate" slogan workin' out for 'em?!
I hope the Republican house leadership is making sure that it is known that any Republican House member who's name appears on said petition will become persona-non-grata in the party and lose his or her committee assignments.
How are they going to force the GOP? Have another Reid tantrum hissy fit?
At one point, I would have said, "time for a third party", or "I'll never financially support the GOP again".
But this kind of response is satisfying to Dems. Daily Kos likes to post FR outrages.
So, this being an inadequate response, what is the next step?
Peter King probably has his fingers in this somewhere. He needs to get a serious attitude adjustment by the leadership or his constituents.
Or have Cher Twitter some more death threats to TP'ers.
They're desperate to hide the Dems' blocking of SNAP and WIC funds this afternoon.
Every day it's a new fantasy story about the "moderates revolt", which never happens. Boehner is protecting these "moderates" from having to vote on the "clean CR" and they love him for it.
Yes. To come this far, and apparently have at least decent poll numbers (since that's important in this age), and just throw it all away...what's the good of voting, when the opposition will just steamroll your representation anyway, as if they don't exist?
There is a simple way for Boehner to avoid this even if democrats get the signatures....adjourn the house before the vote takes place. Then NOTHING can be voted on until the house is back in session...
The dope Lankford needs to go back to Falls Creek and soak his head before he resumes his vital work as program director there.
But now House Democrats say they have found a previously filed bill to use as a discharge petition one that would fund the government at sequester levels.
The bill in question is the Government Shutdown Prevention Act, which was introduced in March by GOP Rep. James Lankford of Oklahoma. As the Congressmans release describes it:
If Congress fails to approve a budget by the end of each fiscal year, the Government Shutdown Prevention Act would ensure that all operations remain running normally without any interruption of services by automatically triggering a continuing resolution (CR) or short-term, stop-gap spending device. The bill creates an automatic CR for any regular appropriations bill not completed before the end of the fiscal year. After the first 120 days, auto-CR funding would be reduced by one percentage point and would continue to be reduced by that margin every 90 days
Boehner has taken a hard stand yet too many here are openly complaining about him...I dont understand this. Look at the 24 Rs siding with RATS!
I support Boehners efforts...
The Constitution says that both chambers have to agree to an adjournment of more than 3 days. Reid would never consent to a House adjournment over this.
What a stupid headline.
Harry and Barack are the only ones keeping it "shutdown"
No, too many of the 18 that were supposed to cave have promised Conservative talk show hosts that it was all lies. dims always lie... it is all that they have.
I agree. For the 1st time in a very long time, I am proud of John Boehner for standing strong and toeing the line.
Begin by stripping these turncoats from all their committee positions and tell them to ask the Dems for one.
Thanks..we have to win this...
Any RINO who votes with the RATs has no political career left, IMO.
Never a penny (or a vote) to a LIB, DIM or RINO. Never.
Brendan Buck @Brendan_Buck
Ah, the old discharge petition move. Zero percent of the time it works every time.
Republicans have been quietly revolting and are showing support for a clean CR, including:
Peter T. King of New York,
Charlie Dent of Pennsylvania,
Michael G. Grimm of New York,
Mike Simpson of Idaho,
Devin Nunes of California,
C.W. Bill Young of Florida,
Erik Paulsen of Minnesota,
Frank A. LoBiondo of New Jersey,
Leonard Lance of New Jersey,
Jon Runyan of New Jersey,
Lou Barletta of Pennsylvania,
Jim Gerlach of Pennsylvania,
Michael G. Fitzpatrick of Pennsylvania,
Patrick Meehan of Pennsylvania,
Frank R. Wolf of Virginia,
J. Randy Forbes of Virginia,
Rob Wittman of Virginia and
Scott Rigell of Virginia.
1. The House of Reps has reportedly passed all the budget bills needed to fully fund the entire Leviathan (excepting of course Obammycare)
2. the Obama says he will not negotiate with the Congress
Speaker Boehner should give a one minute speech pointing the above out, recess the House, and let the members go home.
the House has done its job. The rest is now up to the Senate and Obama.
easy solution. (and if the House is not in session, quisling members can't sell out what the House has already accomplished)
The best thing for these guys is to have it both ways- complain about the shutdown, but not vote against it.
Boehner's letting them do just that.
They'd lose votes from their gov employee constituents if they vote against a "clean CR" and lose votes from conservatives if they vote for it.
Now the senate is a whole different can of worms because their campaigns are heavily influenced by the national media. That's where the danger is.
That's the same bunch from 2 days ago.
Peter King is rapidly becoming the House's John McCain.
If Boehner did that, wouldn't Obama just call Congress back into session? That is, assuming the Dems had the votes to succeed with this discharge petition plan.
The Constitution says that both chambers have to agree to an adjournment of more than 3 days. Reid would never consent to a House adjournment over this.
True. Also, the Constitution says that the President may convene one or both Houses of Congress. So, if Boehner adjourned the house to prevent a vote on the bill, Obama would just convene the house so it could vote on the bill.
Well if Bohner has any balls he will immediately ask them all to a meeting and threaten to toss their sorry asses off any committees, then do it.
That's what he did with the Conservatives a while back.
GOP stand your ground and We the People will stand with you. If you surrender, we will walk all over you.
God save the Republic.......
Gotta give credit to the Dems for using all available rules to their advantage. When conservatives try to take advantage of the rules to advance their agenda, the RINOs tell us it's "inappropriate" and "disrespectful."
Yup. That's the best way to stop this thing (though, with some of these squishy RINOs, it may not be enough). I'm skeptical, though - I'm worried that Boehner wants it both ways - he wants a "clean" CR to pass, but wants to establish some credibility with conservatives, so he needs to oppose it. The dims' discharge maneuver gives him a way to do both, which is why I'm a bit pessimistic. I don't know if there are enough RINOs who are willing to sign the petition at this point, but if there are, I doubt Boehner is willing/able to exert enough pressure to stop them.
Peter King has been the House's John McCain since at least 1998. Conservatives have just been in denial about it.
At last count, as many as = we're just making it up.
Their constituencies cannot hold out that long.
House Republicans are NOT "keeping the government closed". Democrats are!!!
Republicans have voted 4 (FOUR!!!!) times on individual bills that fund all necessary parts of government.
Dems are just throwing a tantrum because they can't have things their way (one big lump bill without Obamacare), if they can' play like they want they'll just not approve anything.
The dems know if the Repubs are able to do this this time, that the House has just realized they have the useful power of the purse and could have been using this all alongm but somewhere along the way had given it up. The House might actually start to use it to reign in Big Government. It scares the democrats to death to think the Republicans might have figured this out.
It is the Dems fault, not the Republicans!
Republicans need to be super aggressive in getting that message out. Dems are holding up funding! Say it over and over until someone finally listens!
DANG IT CofC !
If you hadn't said that, no one on O'bama's team would know!
I see this story as very good news. There's no way the Dims would even be thinking about this if they were decisively winning the PR war, like all the media say they are. I think they are the ones feeling the pressure, being willing to end the shutdown with such a maneuver. Highly unlikely it happens though — for the very same reason. If the moderate RINO types think they are at least breaking even holding the line, they have no reason to risk political suicide by signing a Pelosi-led petition.
"No, too many of the 18 that were supposed to cave have promised Conservative talk show hosts that it was all lies. dims always lie... it is all that they have."
More data on how big of a lie this theme of the crazed liberal mediots is:

Yeah but they'll be lionized on the Sunday talk shows, be hailed as heroes, and get a big smooch from Nancy Pelosi and...oh scratch that last one.
The enemedia is the enemy!
Every republican who agrees with this should be kicked out of the party. Tell the to go ahead and officially join the democrats.
