CMC Biologics and RuiYi to develop cell line for novel anti-IL-6 monoclonal antibody, RYI-008
Singapore: US-based contract biopharmaceutical manufacturing CMC Biologics has collaborated with China-focused RuiYi to develop a cell line for RYI-008, a novel anti-IL-6 monoclonal antibody.
CMC Biologics' proprietary, CHEF1 high-productivity expression plasmid, will be utilized for the cell line development to optimize cell growth, and consistent, high-level protein expression in a rapid time frame. Specific terms of the agreement were not disclosed.
"We are excited to work with CMC Biologics, a global contract manufacturing organization known for its technical excellence in biopharmaceutical development and cGMP manufacturing," said Mr Paul Grayson, president and CEO, RuiYi.
"The integrated services, including cell line development using the proprietary CHEF1 system, along with CMC's responsive and collaborative interactive style made CMC Biologics the obvious partner for this important global effort," Mr Grayson.
"We are pleased with the opportunity to build a long-term relationship with RuiYi on the development of RYI-008. RYI-008 is an antibody with unprecedented potency and remarkable half-life, creating a significant opportunity to be a best in class product in the rapidly evolving field of IL-6 biology," said Dr Mark Sawicki, global VP, business development, CMC Biologics.

|Pacific Northwest Sea Run Forum No such thing as rainbow trout, only landlocked steelhead
|Topic Review (Newest First)
RE:A Lurker No More
Hey Ryan,
2 Autumns??? Wow . . . just the possibility of fishing the 'natch again makes my day!!
As for the Thompson . . there's a reason guys like Juro go to the Thompson <g>.
I agree with you - the take on the swing is awesome - an instant adrenaline-jolt. And tailouts are some of the best places to get that take on a floating line. The water shallows a bit, and the steelhead that hold there just seem be a little bit hotter than the rest.
Now imagine that the steelhead holding there are 15lbs and larger. Steelies that can and will turn your flyreel into a screaming moulten orb moving too fast to even touch! I know - it happened to me last October. Fish took my fly, line, and most of my 200 yards of backing in less time than it took me to react to it. I stared dumbly at the funny-colored line (backing) stretching downstream after the fish came unbuttoned! The boulders -are- big and slimy, but don't write it off until you've gone a few rounds with one of the Thompson's steelhead.
Anyway, welcome to the Forum! See you at the next Wild Steelhead Coalition meeting!

RE:A Lurker No More
That is the very reason I have no aspirations to fish the Thompson...Hell I have a hard enough time walking without falling on my face when walking the silty banks of the lower North Fork. I can not imagine having to manuever Volkswegan size, slick as snot boulders.
I will say I have caught very very few fish on the typical swing. They were all caught in the tail-out of the Deer Creek Riffle as I was up to my armpits in water and the take on the swing is nothing short of amazing. The first time, I will never forget. She took, had me into my backing, cleared the water twice all in about one second. Its very very difficult to nearly give a young lad like myself a heart attack but it sure was great!!!
Now if I can only get one to the surface fly. From the rumors I have heard, the Wenatchee will be open in two autumns from now. That will be the time for Ryans battle with the steelhead on the surface fly. I can not wait!!!!!!
RE:A Lurker No More
Solo - I appreciate the kind words but you obviously haven't seen me try to walk on the banks of the Thompson River! sTumBlinG.... bUmBlinG.... he cOulD gO All thE... SPLASH!
Your offer to use the ariplane hangar for a mid-winter casting party was generous. Now if we could somehow figure out how to move the hangar a little closer to Boston...
Stay warm,
RE:A Lurker No More
Words to live by !
Once again, you have walked on the rice paper in you wet waders and left not a tear much less a mark... kudos!!!
RE:A Lurker No More
I will kill you tomorrow night for fishing an indicator. Just kidding, welcome aboard. There are a number of very savvy steelheaders on Juro's site. Maybe a little obsessed but good guys See you tomorrow at Microsoft.
RE:A Lurker No More
Ryan -
First of all it's great to have you on the forum and WELCOME. Your enthusiasm for the wild steelhead cause in the PNW is inspiring and contagious! Hope we can hook up on conclaves and fly swaps this season and beyond; and of course if there is ever travel to one of the other Forum regions for work or leisure you can count on having a host to show you their home waters. Everyone who joins in helps the cause!
As far as your question, there are two ways of looking at it. The first perspective is like the fish worship tee shirt "Is it wrong?". The other is to consider the merits of the alternatives.
I think we all at one point or another felt the frustration of using a classic fly presentation while people throwing bait, gear or plugs bang fish after fish. It's definitely enough to raise some anxiety in the approach once in a while. As long as it's legal, I am not going to pass judgement on what others are doing. If it shouldn't be legal, that's another story - but we should take that out on law makers not anglers. So is it wrong? That's up to you.
One of the reasons I sold all of my non-fly gear at a garage sale many years ago was to force me to learn how to be a serious flyfisherman. Until I did, it was something I toyed with - but I always reached for the gear like a crutch. I could feel the beauty of flyfishing, sense the magic of catching steelhead on flies, and connect with the timeless legacy of the sport of kings... but couldn't get serious as long as I had "the crutch" in my truck. So I sold every bit of non-fly gear at a garage sale in our neighborhood. Boy was my wife happy when she counted the dinero in the shoebox! A little payback never hurts, eh?
Then it started. I got serious. I went fishing, armed with only a flyrod and a box of the previous night's delusions of grandeur in feathers and steel, to step into the morning mist on the river and stare into the rows of fresh patterns waiting for one to hint to me "fish me - I am the ONE".
I started to see the river as a myriad of intricate trophy searun lies, not as a holding pool near a hatchery. I started to develop an array of complex presentation styles, not just tap-tap-tap repeat. I started to develop a much deeper appreciation for every nuance of the jewel of the earth known as a pacific northwest river, and with another sip from the flask on a giant driftwood streamside log the words of Haig-Brown or Trueblood or McClane or countless others played in my head. There on that log, I was a player on the bench, no longer in the stands above.
I would go fishing for summer runs with only dry lines and long leaders and work the surface, admittedly doubting the viability of the whole approach until that first slashing takedown. It was no less astounding than anything else I've experienced. IN comparison, I hardly knew I had a fish on when I hooked my first gear-caught steelhead... until I set the hook of course. In fact the giddy schoolboy joy I got from the first surface take by a June summer run on the Auburn stretch of the Green River just above the walk bridge at the bouldery run on the Kent side of the tailout below the slab hole on a caddis skater thing... will never be forgotten, nor has it ever gotten less intense over the years.
My point is, the way you fish determines the prize you get when you succeed. I have a hard time remembering any steelie I landed on gear, while I can't forget even one I have caught on flies. Of these, I remember the ones that I worked for the most - and those on the surface are the apex of this list.
Is it wrong? NAW. But what might you be *missing*?
RE:A Lurker No More
I could start in with some very negative thoughts on the bobber, jig crowd that claim to be fly fishing the Stilly. Instead I will say those who use this technique are doing so legally. I have argued this in the past and it comes down to where do we draw the line? I use a combination of sink tip and floating line techniques on the Stilly. Some claim there is no difference between using a sink tip or heavily weighted jigs (flies) with floats (strike indicators). I disagree but, this is just my opinion. I think you need to make up your own mind. If you are comfortable fishing this way. Then by all means continue doing so. If, on the other hand, you are not. Change your methods.
RE:A Lurker No More
Having fished the North fork of the Stilly for over 20 years I guess I'll just have to add my two cents to the topic of "gear slinging bozos".
If the "strike indicator" aids in any physical way with the presentation of the fly rather than functioning as a visual aid to determining the action or movement of the fly (as an indicator got it), I do not consider it fly fishing.
A hunk of foam the size of a pack of cigarettes is not a stike indicator, it's a bobber. While technically not against the letter of the law, for a body of water designated as "Fly fishing Only", I believe the use of this sort of "presentation aid" sullies the spirit and sporting ethics of this river and those who have fought to make it what it is today; a very special place in the hearts and minds of steelhead fly anglers.
A Lurker No More
After weeks of lurking and enjoying the the great conservations that take place in this forum, I have finally decided to join in.
Now for a little controversy
The NrthFrk16 refers to the North Fork Stilliguamish, what else? Anyways I work with the "gear slinging bozo's" (Soverel). Grrrrr...
I fished the North Fork for 3 years (I am and always have been fascinated with the history, the personalities and the flies of the river) before I started working with the "gear slinging bozos" and managed to hold becoming a "gear slinging bozo" for a whole summer but the following summer I was desperate to catch a steelhead so I did what I vowed never to do: fish a strike indicator with a heavily weighted fly and proceeded to catch my first steelhead and many many more.
You must all have your opinions of this type of fishing by now because it has become a huge controversy and led to threats and total rudeness and so I just wanted to know all of your opinions about this type of fishing.
Again...I enjoy everyone's posts here and the casual tightknit family atmosphere and I am glad to be joining in.

Deeplinks Blog posts about Anonymity
Last Thursday, David Kaye, the U.N's newest free speech watchdog, released a groundbreaking report calling upon states to promote strong encryption and anonymity. Kaye assumed the role of Special Rapporteur for Freedom of Expression in August 2014, and this, his first report, will be presented at the 29th regular session of the United Nations Human Rights Council in Geneva mid-June.
His analysis comes at a key moment. The ability to communicate anonymously and to use encryption is more important than ever and the Rapporteur rightly notes that privacy is a gateway for freedom of opinion and expression, saying:
UPDATE: The House Judiciary Committee plans to hold a hearing on June 22, 2016, on the SPEAK FREE Act. This comes a year after 33 organizations, including EFF, sent a letter in June 2015 to the House Judiciary Committee leadership urging them to move the SPEAK FREE Act as quickly as possible. Supporters of the bill are now seeking SLAPP victims to sign a letter to the House Judiciary Committee Chairman. If you have been a victim of a SLAPP, please consider sharing your story and signing the letter.

Mandatory data retention legislation is never a good idea, which is why EFF has vigorously opposed it in the United States, where Congress tried and failed to pass it in 2009. That year, two ill-conceived bills would have required all Internet providers and operators of Wi-Fi access points to keep records on Internet users for at least two years to assist police investigations. Nevertheless, governments around the world, individually, and in concert, continue to argue that the stockpiling of the private, personal data of entire populations become a global norm. It's a constant battle, but one with some clear victories, most notably in the European Union, and most recently in Paraguay.
Facebook recently updated its community standards. As the company noted in the announcement accompanying the change, their "policies and standards themselves are not changing," but that they wanted to provide more clarity to a set of existing rules that have often been misunderstood by users.
While some of the changes provide significantly more detail as to the reasoning behind certain content restrictions, others fall short. And unfortunately, the updated standards do very little to solve the continuing problem of account suspensions for "real names" violations.

Breeding Fundulopanchax Fallar CI-98
I have a question regarding breeding killies. I've currently two (I could not buy a trio) in a heavily planted 10 gallon tank where the only filtration is a 20 gallon sponge filter. I'm trying to get my pair to spawn by feeding varied frozen foods and changing 50% of the water every day. I'm in no rush to breed them, however, as I'm currently enjoying just caring for these little guys. The question I have in mind is am I *caring* for this pair appropriately? It is, after all, my first time trying to get fish babies...
EDIT: I'm trying to breed Fundulopanchax gardneri innidere NOT Fundulopanchax fallar ci-98... I got confused with the names as they are, well, confusing! I just double checked my Aquabid receipt and they are in fact Fundulopanchax gardneri innidere.
Last edited by koaladarshana; 02-11-2013 at 04:42 AM.
I have not bred this exact species, but i have bred a bunch of other mop spawning killies, and here is my two cents. i do a 20% water change once a week in my killie tanks. The fry are really tiny, so i wouldnt gravel vac the tank when you are doing a water change, or really inspect the water closely before you dump it. When you see your first fry you will see what i mean. I usually pull the water from near the surface, then i use a turkey baster to get all the dirty spots at the bottom of the tank. Even when being careful like this i still inspect the water closely before i dump it, its nothing to wind up with half a dozen fry in the water change bucket.
My first mop spawning killie was Aphyosemion Pyrophore Komono, and for three months i thought i was doing something wrong because i wasnt getting any fry. Then one night i thought i saw something move in my water change bucket, and when i took a flashlight and looked very closely there were 3 fry in the bucket. I quit using the gravel vac, and had tons of fry in no time. I still feel sad for the countless fry that i must have dumped out back with the waste water, so hopefully you can learn from my rookie mistake.My witness is the empty sky - Jack Kerouac
Great advice, thank you! I see your logic with not gravel vac-ing and I'm going to take your advice. I feel now like my water changing might be a bit excessive though... I'll just monitor my nitrates and change water accordingly instead of just daily.
Yea, if you keep an eye on how your water is testing and do changes accordingly you should be good. You may need to do more changes than i do because I only feed my killies live food, so that helps keep my water clean. Just a warning, killies can be addicting. Let me know if you catch the killie bug like i did, i'd be happy to share some of the other little tricks that have worked for me.My witness is the empty sky - Jack Kerouac

Any suggestions?
Does anyone know a good and free hyper terminal I can use to connect to it? I want to be able to send /r and /n as I need so the Arduino serial monitor is not good enough (unless I don't know how to).
Why do you say that the serial LCD Sparkfun sells needs an Arduino? They are stand-alone and don't need anything else to work@PaulS & liudr, that drop-down box is on 0022 aswellJust use Coolterm, uses post 2000 technology, has a clean interface and raw and ascii view, selectable enter representation, etcPutty lacks some key functionality as a serial terminal, and the others where before 2000 when last updated
It will be similar to the serLCD sparkfun sells except it still needs an arduino to control.
that relays every key press to the serial port, including tab, and back space or even ctrl
Quotethat relays every key press to the serial port, including tab, and back space or even ctrl"Ctrl" is a modifier like "shift", and is not sent by a serial terminal as a separate code.

Your critique nails exactly what drives me the most nuts when I view the video.
My goals were to do 2 things. I wanted marks that were pretty low on the difficulty level - likely to produce success. I wanted to work on head swinging on the 2nd mark thrown. I wanted to work on live human-thrown retired marks.
It drives me NUTS how fast I swung off of both retired marks to turn to the short "go bird", which is really just thrown to set up the retired memory bird. I almost cancelled out the whole purpose of the first setup, which was to work on head swinging.
I want to work on head swinging more. I do think he may have learned something on that head swing, and I intentionally just gave him a tiny tap to tell him he's not to swing to that short gun. I do agree that my attempts to really work with him to get him to lock in on that long gun and NOT swing over to the short left mark (did not show well in video) were fidgety looking. It is entirely possible that I worried him by the repeated cueing and hand movements.
I did send him fast on that head swinging mark after the stick tap. I did this because he did as I was urging and stayed focused on that mark and did not head swing. I decided to kick him off fast and set him up for success once he stayed looking at that long mark.
On the "no hand send" for the retired memory birds: I used to "always" put a hand down for all memory birds with Bus. I stopped this when coached to avoid it in Summer of 2009 at a workshop in Montello.
We were urged to not use a hand on memory birds, in general, unless it was to drive the dog deep. In both of the retired marks we ran, they were plopping right out in a "want to go to" spot (in my opinion). I did not want to drive the dog deep, due to the location of the marks and the fact that there were roads behind the marks. (and no, there is no fence between the mark and that busy road - to answer someone who mentioned that)
I also realize that "golf course marks" are not the sort of thing that's going to help us hammer All Age work. I do try to use that setting to work on concepts like retired mark mechanics and head swinging.
Now to just slow down and not rush!
Violet was on the truck. Since Rosie came along, Vi has decided bumpers are for nerds. Give Violet a mole or a mouse and she's game-on. In the absence of a rodent, a UPS driver or Schwann's man will do . (just kidding )

When I dry out the cape I use borax also but its not the type you get in the laundry aisle. The laundry type of borax is way too fine in my opinion. The borax I get is from where I work and its rougher and gritter (the best way to describe it). When I pour the borax on the cape I will rub it in lightly and then pretty much dump a bunch on top of it. I will have a good inch or more on top of it. I will leave them like that for atleast 5 weeks before I do anything to them.
If you notice in the pic on the lower body part, that's about how much borax I use on each one. I made a jake fan last year to put in a decoy. I have abused that fan and it hasn't fallen apart yet (knock on wood). Also, my first attempt on a cape that I did a couple of years ago is still holding up and looking like it did when I made it. Besides the borax I don't do anything special to them. I'm sure there is something that will help the hide last longer but I don't know what that might be.

We streamline recruitment from candidate identification through entry into the training pipeline, while also automating training administration from course design to class scheduling and records. We develop analytics to better match interests, skills and requirements for improved service member success rates. We consolidate defense personnel systems to eliminate duplication and enable better integration of personnel processes across multiple services and our solutions provide any time access to information.
HP Defense Personnel Services help organizations improve visibility of resource availability and improve military life for individual service personnel and their families, all while reducing administrative costs.
The transformation of defense organizations to overcome modern day personnel challenges requires improved recruitment selection, planned training activities and modern military personnel management techniques. At the same time, defense organizations must balance costs against the demands of funding procurements and front-line combat operations.
Military personnel systems must adapt to changing requirements and procedures: how people are recruited, deployed, re-deployed, trained and re-skilled, and compensated.
Today, military organizations struggle with multiple, non-integrated and non-interoperable personnel systems that stop them from achieving efficiencies, cost savings and better management of personnel. Systems and the management information they produce are optimized for the institutional administration of personnel and tend to under serve deployed or functional commanders' requirements. Transformation enables coherent personnel policies, improves visibility of resource availability both at the headquarters and the unit level, and reduces administration costs.
Military personnel management—recruitment, training, pay and benefits, force and career management and health
HP Defense Personnel Services consolidate, update or replace existing personnel administration systems to create an integrated, interoperable and cost-effective personnel management environment. Our solutions enhance both enterprise-wide personnel systems and the functional areas within military personnel administration. Our services improve:
Comprehensive military personnel solutions plus recognized HP expertise.
HP combines extensive military personnel management transformation experience with a broad technology portfolio to create comprehensive, proven end-to-end solutions.
We bring experience gained through our long-standing engagements with some of the largest and most active defense agencies in the world—the U.S. Department of Defense and the U.K. Ministry of Defence. We created services for them that improve personnel administration and drive down costs. We can help you achieve those results, too.

Darth Vader is becoming the Mickey Mouse of Star Wars.
Kylo Ren - came from Space Brooklyn, although he moved to Space Williamsburg before it was trendy.

alright, so it looks like THE HOBBIT movie is finally happening. So, since Toybiz is sadly dead (or I think they're now Marvel Toys?!?), who would you like to see pick up a line for this flick? Suggestions?

"Woke up at 9.55am. Soon as I woke up, I looked at Suzanne and she looked at me. I said, 'Did I tell you about the immune system?' Suzanne starting laughing, I said, 'it's amazing.' She said, 'Not now.'"
Neca would be my 1st choice, def. not Playmates after the Star Trek debacle.
"In my experience there's no such thing as luck."
Neca does nice sculpts, but I demand playability and enormous variety in my LOTR figures. Hasbro is the only company that I think can presently offer that, though I should think it goes without saying that I'll be wanting them to pick up the license for the original trilogy as well.
...That is the important question, what size? Do they continue with the 6" figures for all those people who have bought almost everything LOTR Toy Biz made and is a popular size for Neca and others like Diamond Comics Star Trek, or do they go for the more popular 3.75 which is Hasbro's trademark size of Star Wars and Gi Joe?
I'm one of those who bought almost every 6" LOTR figure, but I almost wish I would have opted for the AOME size because of the playsets. Which going for the 3.75 size we might get some more toys like playsets besides just figures. Of course we all know how that turned out for Star Trek Playmates when they tried to jump on that bandwagon, so the point of 3.75 maybe mute.
I wouldn't mind getting rid of most of my LOTR figures. I'd probably just keep the main characters, a couple of the gift packs, and the 12 inch figures. I opened most of the first ones in the large green packaging, and a few of the Two Towers packaging as well. Everything else is still carded.
Got to be 3 3/4" (since they for sure won't be by Toy-Biz, they're not going to be a match in style anyway) so we'll be more likely to see more of the larger characters, and they'll be able to produce them much closer to the appropriate scale. Not to mention the possibility of playsets and smaller diorama pieces, and the reality that there's probably not any company out there that's going to produce any decent variety in larger scales. If we get them in six inch scale or larger, I sincerely doubt any toy company would put out more than the basic characters, and most of the six inch scale collectors already have those. Besides, the smaller scale takes up so much less space.
It's doubtful that the Hobbit will be a failure and I think no matter what size they do it will do relatively well.
They could do multiple sizes like Zizzle and Neca did for POTC figures. We got a giant Black Pearl ship out of that deal.
The Toy Biz LOTR figures were just too big for me to collect and I never bought that many of them. So, I'm hoping they restart the line in the 3.75" format.
However, the only thing that really has me excited about the possibilities of a Hobbit toy line is the potential for army-building Dwarfs. So, with that in mind, maybe a continuation of the 6" scale wouldn't be a big problem.
Although, most likely, whichever company acquires the license is going to figure out the most cost-effective way to produce Smaug and then scale the line according to that.
Civilized men are more discourteous than savages because they know they can be impolite without having their skulls split. - Robert E. Howard

Tips for Lowering the Cost of Higher Education
College tuition has increased at more than twice the rate of inflation over the past several decades, and student debt has increased dramatically, both in terms of number of students with loans and how much they borrow. Here are some strategies for lowering the cost of higher education and reducing student debt.
Start early
Set up college savings accounts for your children at a young age and watch them grow! And check out the Minnesota College Savings Plan, a qualified tuition program where earnings are tax-free while invested and tax exempt when withdrawn for qualified higher education expenses.
Do the right things in high school and leading up to postsecondary education:
- Take challenging courses required for college and to help you avoid costly remediation classes after high school
- Get college credit while in high school through PSEO/Advanced Placement
- Visit several campuses to help you make the right choice
- Pick a major as early as possible; transferring and/or changing majors after the second year adds cost. (program grids are found in the back of this publication)
Don't let "sticker shock" discourage you from applying to a school:
- Financial need is not limited to low-income families
- Figure out the "net price" (cost after aid)
- Try our financial aid estimator
- Many schools offer net price calculators (with varying degrees of complexity), e.g., Augsburg College and St. Cloud State University
Borrow responsibly:
- Use loan calculators to determine your monthly student loan payment
- Keep monthly payments at 8-10% of monthly income in your field (www.careerwise.mnscu.edu has information about expected earnings)
- Apply for financial aid by filling out the FAFSA
- Apply for aid even if you think you won't be eligible
- Exhaust federal loan options before you consider private loans (federal loans may be eligible for forgiveness)
- Research private loans carefully
While in school, consider the following money-saving options:
- Live at home
- Start at a 2-year college
- Buy used textbooks whenever possible
- Live like a student
- Don't work too much (sometimes it makes more sense to take out a loan if it allows you to graduate sooner)
- Carry a full load of credits as much as possible
- Attend summer school to get ahead
- Consult academic advisors for advice

By Tiernan Ray
Sprint (S) will report Q2 results tomorrow morning, the first report since Japan's Softbank (9984JP) purchased 72% of the company earlier this month.
Analysts are modeling $8.69 billion in revenue and a 30-cent-per-share loss.
The focus of many analysts is on how the new Sprint will handle its monumental network upgrade project, dubbed "Network Vision," given they expect that the project already caused some serious damage to customer acquisition last quarter.
Deutsche Bank's Brett Feldman reiterates a Buy rating and an $8 price target. He's modeling $8.83 billion and a net loss of 30 cents. Because the company is now focused on the build-out of its network, and less so on marketing, he expects heavy subscriber losses took place:
We expect Sprint to report a net loss of 1.1 million post paid subs. The key driver is the 6/30 shutdown of the Nextel network, which still supported 1.06M subs as of 1Q. We estimate 360k switched to Sprint and 668k left the company. We estimate a net loss of 65k Sprint-brand subs (425k losses offset by the 360k switchers from Nextel). Our estimate for 425k 'external' Sprint net sub losses is the key number as it represents the run-rate from which Sprint must improve post the Nextel shut-down. The key reason for these losses is that Sprint has not yet completed its LTE upgrade, so it is holding back on marketing (fewer gross adds) while experiencing elevated churn (est 1.89%) due to spotty coverage. We will be focused on management's outlook for how long it will take to see a turnaround in these trends. We also expect substantial prepaid sub losses in 2Q (est -1.25M) primarily due to 1.35 million Assurance subs that do not recertify under the government's new Lifeline eligibility rules.
Feldman says key things to learn about on the earnings call will be what pressure the consolidation of Clearwire will bring to margins, and how the company will spend a projected $8 billion of capital investment this year and next. Also the funding gap in those plans has to be addressed.
Wells Fargo's Jennifer Fritzsche, reiterating an Outperform rating, today projects $8.5 billion and a 28-cent loss, writing that it was a "mixed" quarter, with Ebitda margin, on an adjusted basis, of 16.9% being the highlight, perhaps a tad under the Street's 17.1% consensus, she writes. Net additions of 170,000 might beat the Street's 130,000 average estimate, she thinks, but the strength of AT&T (T), Verizon Communications (VZ) and T-Mobile USA (TMUS) in signing up customers in the quarter may cause the company to miss her target.
"We expect a main focus to be on revised guidance and color on H2 2013 given the completion of the CLWR and SoftBank mergers."
"We note we do not believe SoftBank CEO Masayoshi Son will be on the call given that SoftBank reports its own results the same day."
And Kevin Manning with BMO Capital Partners reiterates an Outperform rating and a $7 price target, but cut his CDMA post-paid subscriber additions figure to a range of 300,000 to 338,000 subs lost from his prior estimate for gains of 200,000 to 562,000 arguing that "the Network Vision deployment has fallen further behind schedule. This has led to increased churn from "pardon our dust" impacts on existing subs and new reduced subscriber acquisition efforts."
Recently introduced rate plans may help, and he thinks Sprint will be a "credible" challenger to T-Mobile, but "We believe the next couple of quarters could be challenging."
Sprint shares today were unchanged at $5.74.

Man claims couple didn't flood Pheasant Hill Inn
SPOKANE VALLEY, Wash. - A Spokane Valley hotel's renovation project took a big hit early Wednesday morning after a couple, celebrating their anniversary, got into an argument and two sprinkler heads in their hotel room were broken, flooding the hotel.
The Pheasant Hill Inn says the damage done to the hotel was in the hundreds of thousands of dollars, which comes on the heels of a six-month long renovation project. Now they'll have to do another renovation to clean up the damage.
Danial Peters and his wife Danielle Wozniak paid about $100 for a hotel room at the Pheasant Hill Inn and left their room a shambles before checkout time.Man claims couple didn't flood Pheasant Hill Inn
"Literally hundreds of thousands of dollars in damage, basically all three floors were flooded, all the furniture, appliance, bedding was destroyed," Spokane County Sheriff Deputy Craig Chamberlin said.
The hotel says only 27 of its 104 rooms weren't damaged from fire retardant in the water from the sprinklers. Cleaning crews were still on hand Thursday cleaning up the damage.
"I don't even remember doing any real, major damage I really don't ... it all happened so fast," suspect Danial Peters said in an interview at the Spokane County Jail.
Peters says he doesn't know why the sprinklers went off in the room Wednesday morning, but according to court documents, he said he broke the sprinklers in an attempt to get help from the people after him. He echoed many times in the interview that he doesn't remember what happened.
"I really can't remember one way or the other if I did … I can't remember why they went off first," he said.
Peters insisted he wasn't high but court documents also say that his wife Danielle Wozniak said he destroyed their room after the couple used meth.
He claims the only damage he did was break a lamp.
"I'm telling you this, me and my wife did not do hundreds of thousands of dollars of damage to that hotel room, I know that for a fact," he said.
Peters and Wozniak were both booked into the Spokane County Jail on a felony malicious mischief charge and had their first appearance in court Thursday.
Bond was set at $5,000 for Peters and $2,500 for his wife. They'll have their next court appearance in two weeks.

Plus the ACL. Does he come back strong? Does he lose a step? Things like that. But a 2nd round worthy pick for sure
Plus the ACL. Does he come back strong? Does he lose a step? Things like that. But a 2nd round worthy pick for sure
yeah i took a look at some patterson stuff this morning and that kids murder in the open field...appears my first take was wrong on this one...he's a little leggy but those cuts in space and the way he can stop on a dime and redirect is damn impressive...long speed also...hmmm
Patterson drops balls but he makes a lot more plays than Hunter. He breaks tackles too.
He's a solid 4.4 guy. I'm thinking the only way he goes that high is if he's the talk of the combine. You know how players somehow get better during that meet and greet process
Yeah, I agree about him being better than Hunter, a lot better. He's has that 'home run' ability and at that size it's pretty rare for a Wr prospect.
run after the catch is huge for us...we don't have it...patterson in the rac dept is damn impressive...that kids murder in the open field...i think he looks leggy to me cause he's listed at 6 ft 3 and to my eye he plays a shorter guys game on tape...not sure i see a go up and get it highpoint guy...so for a big wr he kinda plays like a 6 footer to me...
if that 6 ft 3 is legit he's got solid hips for his size..you don't make those kind of cuts and on a dime redirects if your hips suck
They have him listed at 6'4" on some sites, but i'm sure they gave him an inch or so
I do have to say his routes are not that crisp, but from all the highlights i've seen of the guy he definitely is a natural hands catcher. You're right, I haven't seen him go up and get it that much. That could be for a lot of reasons though like QB ball placement, his height advantage blah blah etc
the other question is for a guy that size is he a win red zone target??? i haven't seen much evidence of it...he may be a home run hitter and b/t the 20's guy the latter of which is pretty much all hartline is for us so it would give us more big play ability...

English Laws for Women in the Nineteenth Century.By
C. Norton.
IT has been remarked to me, that if there were no other reason why a very reluctant attention should be granted to this Pamphlet, there would be "no time" to notice a discussion of the Law, arising out of affairs purely personal, at a period when subjects of momentous public importance occupy the minds of all men. In answer to that remark I can only say, that I have never yet seen the public mind in a state of such undivided attention. I have no doubt that in the present Session, as in all others, there will be "time" for all usual employments; time for assemblies, operas, and balls; time for races, club‐dinners, and fêtes; time for reading works of science, and works of fiction; for the most abstract study, and for the most frivolous gossip; time to discuss whether the arms of Scotland are properly quartered with the arms of England, as well as to debate whether the Emperor of Russia is to make war upon the world. It would be paying Englishmen a poor compliment to suppose that the one subject they are determined not to find time for, is the reform of some of their own laws; a reform confidently alluded to by the Lord Chancellor, in his speech of the 14th February last year; and formally introduced as one of the topics of the Queen's Speech at the opening of Parliament.
Lord Campbell,—in his brilliant and interesting work, "The Lives of the Chancellors,"—tells us that in the session of 1758 page: iv reference was made to the Judges on the motion of ex‐Chancellor Hardwicke, respecting a bill for amending the law of Habeas Corpus; and it was proposed to introduce a new bill in the ensuing session. "But I am sorry to say,"—observes Lord Campbell,—"that when the next session arrived, nothing was thought of except the taking of QUEBEC; and the subject was not again resumed, till the very close of the reign of George III."
Now it is certainly possible, that in like manner the Law‐reforms so confidently promised for this session, may be set aside; and some future writer of Chancellors' Lives, may express his regret, that "in the Session of 1854 little was thought of except the taking of SEBASTOPOL."
But, if another half century should glide away without reform in our Ecclesiastical and other Courts (as more than half a century elapsed, between the motion of ex‐Chancellor Hardwicke and the amendment of the Habeas Corpus Act) shall we set it all down to the overwhelming interest taken in Quebec and Sebastopol?
Shall we not rather look for the solution of these delays, in a certain supineness on the part of those who work the machinery of justice? and in fact (also stated by Lord Campbell) that "it is very difficult to draw the notice of the representatives of the people to measures for the Amendments of the Law"? Difficult to draw attention to such measures; not difficult to find "time," either for their discussion, or the consideration of any examples which may prove the necessity of change.

France 1848 – 1884
attributed to
(Young peasant woman) c.1882 Materials & Technique: paintings, oil on canvas
Although fully attributed to Jules Bastien-Lepage in the Joseph Brown catalogue Spring Exhibition 1977: Recent Acquisitions, there is a degree of uncertainty as to the identity of the artist responsible for Young peasant woman. The painting, which is unfinished and neither signed nor dated, is here cautiously attributed to Bastien-Lepage, but the possibility that it is by another hand cannot be discounted. A close circle of followers gathered around this influential painter in the 1880s, painting similar subjects in a similar style.
The positioning of the young woman in an expansive countryside is characteristic of Bastien-Lepage, as is the choice of a high vantage point which locates the figure against the landscape. The village in the background cannot be identified but is similar to the view which appears in a number of works painted by Bastien-Lepage on the outskirts of his home in Damvillers, especially the view in the background of Pas mèche [Nothing doing] 1881-82. As noted by Kenneth McConkey, however, 'the handling of the buildings in the background is rather smudgy and less-defined than one would expect from a Beaux-Arts trained painter, such as Bastien'. McConkey concedes that a number of features of the painting are consistent with Bastien-Lepage's mode of conception and believes the work sufficiently close to warrant consideration. Lacking signature or date - 'Something one would expect in a painting of this size, albeit unfinished' - he reserves judgement, however, until other works portraying a similar model appear.
The model depicted in Young peasant woman has features similar to Adèle Roberts, a cousin of the artist, who appears as the central figure in paintings Les foines [Haymakers] 1878, Saison d'Octobre: récolte des pommes de terre [October: Potato harvest] 1879, and in other works from 1878 to 1884. Adèle Roberts and the Young peasant woman share the same strong jawline, angular cheekbones, small mouth and dark hair pulled back from the face.
Regardless of the author, the painting appears to date from the early 1880s. The woman's clothes can be broadly dated to the 1880s, though rural costume tends to be conservative and less affected by changes in fashion, and therefore harder to date with precision. The canvas itself bears the rubber-stamped imprint 'Foinet', used to mark the canvases which this firm provided between 1880 and 1898. A date in the early 1880s seems most probable, being both the time of Bastien-Lepage's mature, most confident style, and also the period when his art inspired many imitators.

Kahn: Only Rubio and Love are untouchable
MINNEAPOLIS (AP) -- Timberwolves president David Kahn says he will be very aggressive this summer through trades and free agency to supplement a promising young core.
The only two players who are considered untouchable right now are All-Star forward Kevin Love and point guard Ricky Rubio. Kahn says "no stone will be left unturned" to try to end a seven-year postseason absence.
The Timberwolves were 21-19 when Rubio was lost for the season with a left knee injury. Love, Nikola Pekovic and Luke Ridnour also missed significant time down the stretch, and the Wolves lost 21 of their final 26.
Kahn also says some of the team's young players need to prove to the Wolves that they are serious by working hard on their games this summer.

OOPS...the vote-grabbers have now gotten caught with their fingers in the cookie jar.
As a young kid sitting around with the 'grownups' and listening to them discuss the happenings in the country. There would always be one or two that would issue that hackneyed phrase, "there ought to be a law". As politicians continued to provide those laws, so they would 'please' their constituants, so they'd receive their blessings in the form of votes the next cycle, subsequently developing an entire new profession...the fulltime politician.
Since there was no "law" to stop this form of "taker", such as term limits, all his toadies kept him in office, so these sycophants could continue to receive their favors. And since so few at that time could devote any thought to where this was leading this nation, the practice of "pork production from the troughs of government" continued unabated.
Along with these new laws that needed implementation, came the increase in folks happy to get on that payroll, with all their bennies and perks. Keep this up for several decades, and you have a "Wisconsin-type-problem" in all the unionista states.
As these politicians continued to see all they had to do was continue to offer freebies and welfare for votes, and the apathetic that were too busy trying to keep their heads above the water didn't realize they were being had, so they kept looking for the easy way out...and VOILA...hope and change was proffered. How could it miss?
But after a couple years of seeing they had been hoodwinked, many had had enough and started to talk to their like-minded neighbors. Enough is enough was their thinking, and it was time to stop the complacency and start getting actively involved. TEA Party time. Time to:
..take back a country that was about to fall into the abyss.
..remove the 'career politician', because we recognize what he's doing to keep that career.
..make draconian cuts in the spending, because of the draconian over-spending that has led up to this juncture in history.
..remind your newly elected representatives why they were sent to Washington, and what they MUST do to even stay a little while.
..ignore the crowd that squeels when 'their ox gets gored', because there are no sacred oxen in this fight of survival.
..stop the governmental welfare at EVERY level, because it leads to dependancy by all that receive it...from the corporations to the homeless.
..weed out the corruption, graft, pork spending, and obvious duplications.
It's unfortuante we don't have the luxury of wittling down all this gross debt in the same way it was accrued...incrementally! Too late for that. We've already hit the iceberg. Now we must find enough ways to empty the weight to keep the boat afloat until it can be repaired. Lots of 'stuff' needs to be thrown over, it just can't be salvaged any more.
That's why 2012 will be the most crucial vote this nation will ever have. Either those that know what must be done take the lead and do it, or the SFN crowd wins, and Atlas will shrug. Then the hope and change that Roger and his ilk so desperately seek will send this nation to ruin. And quite frankly, I don't much give a damn. I don't intend to be here long enough to see this land I love go down. So whatever the rest of you sow, that's what you'll reap.
God help us all.

I am super feliz to announce that I'm now a member of Lowe's Creative Ideas Network – What this means is that each month I'll be participating in creative home and garden improvement projects which I'll share with you here.
We've been Lowe's customers for a long time, (remember the video we made a couple years ago about how all the signage at Lowe's is bilingual?) – and like most homeowners, we have a long list of things that need to be fixed – so somos una pareja perfecta (we're a perfect match!)
For the month of March the challenge was to either bring spring indoors or do some spring cleaning and organization – I ended up doing a little of all of that. We live in a small house, (1,144 square feet to be exact), so the family computer is located in a corner of the living room – and it wasn't a very pretty corner. I decided to salvage the beat up desk and chair by painting them a bright color, add potted plants, clean up the clutter, and change up the wall art. Here's the result!
What do you think? If you like any of these changes and want to re-create them in your own casita, here are some step-by-step directions to help you out.
Potted Plant How-To
What you need:
Pots of your choice (I chose the 3-pot herb tray planter, $9.97)
Plants of your choice (I chose lavender, $3.48 each)
This is pretty easy! In my case, I chose lavender because not only is it pretty but it smells good so it works as a natural air freshener. Lavender is also known to de-stress, and since this computer area is used for stressful things like filing taxes and doing homework, I figured we could all use a dose!
The Lavender came in biodegradable pots which can be planted directly in the ground, but because I re-planted it in ceramic pots, I cut that part away and simply put the biodegradable part outside in the garden. If the plant you chose came with too much dirt, remove as much as needed to make it fit. If the opposite is true, (the plant didn't come with enough dirt to fill your pot nicely), you may need to purchase a small bag of potting soil and add as needed.
Beach-style Sign How-To
What you need:
A piece of lumber, 1 to 2 feet long
Screws, screwdriver
Paint colors, (your choice)
A large paintbrush for the background color
A very fine paint brush for lettering
Picture wire ($3.18)
Wire cutters
Pencil with eraser
Sandpaper (optional)
1. For the piece of lumber I actually bought a "mailbox mount board" for $3.47 because it was the perfect size plus it came with a little bag of screws. Paint the board whichever color you like. I chose Valspar semi-gloss in "Sprinkler CI 250." Choose a word or phrase and then measure lines lightly marked in pencil to guide you. (The phrase I chose, "Todo me parece bonito" ["Everything seems nice to me"] is from a Jarabe de Palo song.) Allow to dry before moving on to the next step.
2. I chose to hand letter my sign, but you can use stencils. Use a pencil to outline the text lightly and then you can paint them in. (I just used basic white craft paint which, like many of the supplies I didn't price above, I already had on hand.)
3. Allow paint to dry completely and then gently erase any pencil marks that are still showing. Optional: If you want your sign to look more weather worn, lightly hand sand it with fine sandpaper.
4. I wanted my sign to look kind of casual and hastily made, like a real sign you might see on a beach, so I chose to make the screws and wire visible. If you don't want the hanging mechanism to be visible, you can do it on the back side. To make your sign like mine, measure an inch in on each side of your sign on the top edge. Mark a dot at each end, which is where you'll place a screw. Tap the screw with a hammer so that it stands on its own, and then use a screw driver to drill it in deeper, but not all the way.
5. Use wire cutters to cut a length of wire that is a couple inches longer than your board on each side. Tie the wire to each screw and wrap any extra length around the screw. Your sign is ready to hang!
Desk & Chair Makeover How-To
What you need:
Paint of your choice (I got a gallon of Valspar semi-gloss in "Sprinkler CI 250" – cost $34.98)
Paint brushes ($2.98 to $3.98 each, depending on size)
Sandpaper ($5.97)
Cloth rags
Old newspapers
Eye protection
Face masks – aka "respirators" (3 pack, $5.97)
Candy (to "pay" your kids to do the dirty work)
Optional: electric sander
1. If you can, take your furniture outside when you sand it – this saves you from making the house all dusty. The purpose of sanding before you paint is to help the paint adhere better to the wood and it will save you from having to do a second coat. Use eye protection and a face mask to keep the dust from sanding out of your eyes and lungs. You can sand by hand or use an electric sander. (If you hate sanding like I do, hire your kids to do it. Mine work for candy, which Lowe's conveniently sells.)
2. Wipe the furniture down with old rags to remove all the dust.
3. Open the paint and stir. If painting inside, spread old newspapers under the furniture to protect your flooring. If painting outside, you can do the same if you don't want your grass painted. A gallon is more than enough to paint your average-sized desk and chair – You will have plenty leftover for other projects.
4. Allow paint to dry completely before moving your furniture or putting anything on it.

Date: Sunday, January 22, 2012 - 3:00 PM - 9:00 PM
Annual Point-in-Time Homeless Count
The Point-in-Time (PIT) Count provides an annual count of sheltered and unsheltered homeless persons. Teams of volunteers will be canvassing Travis County to count homeless men, women and children on the streets, under highway bridges and in camps. This count is a vital component in assessing the well being of Austin area's homeless population and in securing the greatest level of funding the federal government will allot Travis County's homeless service providers.
Count Volunteers Needed
Teams generally consist of at least three members. Volunteers observe and count homeless individuals from their cars within a defined area of Austin or Travis County. We will have 2 shifts (volunteers will choose 1) on January 22nd. ECHO will provide training and assign volunteers to areas they know well if possible. All teams will receive a map, with grid, to follow as well as a clipboard, pencils, highlighter, and all necessary forms.
Data Entry Volunteers Needed
Training for data entry volunteers will occur at the beginning of your volunteer shift:

Re-evaluating two stalwart corporations in my software world. It seems ideology matters in the long haul (knew that). VA Research/Linux/Software is still plugging along (after evaporating my $4K friends-and-families investment) and I've finally realized that they are simply Slashdot++. When they bought Andover they decided their future as a media/content provider for the open-source future. Sourceforge still works, things eventually get fixed, I can't complain.
The other corporation that has impressed me with their stick-to-it-tiveness is Apple. I bought my first Apple (a IIe with Microsoft Basic) in 1980. Two decades later they have made computing fun for me again. BSD under the hood. iPod++ on top. And X11 thrown in, packaged to look the same as Cocoa?
Ok, I'm also impressed with the stick-to-it-tiveness of Advogato. Maybe someday raph will get back to me on that interview for the Vector Graphics Foundry (do you still read every diary entry? probably not...).
Woohooo! Looks like gcc-3.*/libstdc++-v3 has re-instated a filebuf constructor that accepts an integer file descriptor! Back in 2001, when I was an early adopter of libstdc++-v3, I really tried to make the case that this non-standard extension to iostreams was completely necessary to maintain backward compatibility with legacy C++ code written exclusively for g++. I painfully worked around the problem (who wants to do an fdopen on a socket handle just to use iostreams?), but I was never happy with the result. Big thanks to whomever got this done.
My first book is uploaded under a Creative Commons license. I'm putting my drawing software to work selling an interesting service on E-Bay. What else is new? Oh yeah, ivtools-1.1.
Unemployed computer philosopher with theory and experience relevant to large-scale graphics and imaging systems, especially image analysis and recognition. Will work for sanity.
I went to that last show by myself, and had a cosmic moment when I asked Cha, the drummer who I've seen play in several different bands, if she had been in any bands before I first saw her play with Matt and Tony (called Nectar). She smiled, and said yes, then looked shocked for a moment as Matt and the other guy in her first band (before Tony, called Hear) walked up.
It was the breakup show, and they had problems with the sound balance at the Rio. I couldn't hear Mauri's tasty lead guitar, and that was a big problem. I had to move myself around the room to get the mix I wanted. Or maybe it was Leslie's 96-year old grandmother seated in the very front that intimidated the sound guy, I don't know. For a while it was only bass and drums, which is fine for your average punk band, but did these girls a disservice.
Befor the last song Mauri gave Leslie a kiss on the cheek. After the song she acted at smashing her guitar with little damage, until Leslie picked up Mauri's guitar and gave it a few whacks of her own. The last thing I saw after the show was Mauri's friend carefully inspecting the damage, saying it was repairable. I told him to thank Mauri for the music, and walked out.
For me a trip to San Francisco is usually a spiritual journey. I fear more will be required in the near future, to contemplate what the world could have been, what it might get to someday, and why things are the way they are now. And some day I'll tell you my stories of Harold Stassen. Kudos to whomever can figure out the connection.
Anyone from the Peninsula want to car-pool to the very last show of Glitter Mini 9 in San Francisco, Sat. Jan 25th? They go on stage at 11 at the El Rio. If you love the Donnas, GM9 will steal your heart away, then break it.
(pointed out by a friend) Where is the source for Safari? Why am I not informed of its GPL licensing when I download the beta binary (imposed by the use of khtml)? Why isn't slashdot.org all over this?
New HTML Parser: The long-awaited libxml2 based HTML parser code is live. It needs further work but already handles most markup better than the original parser.

- Description
The exhibition "PIPIFAX for Tirana / Through the looking glass and what we found there" is organized by Tirana Art Lab – Centre for Contemporary Art in the framework of the Project "Artists in Residency" supported by ProHelvetia with the participation of Haus am Gern, represented by the Swiss artists Rudolf Steiner and Barbara Meyer Cesta.
PIPIFAX means nonsense and is of Jewish origin. Jewish refer to the word JHWH (Jahweh, Jehovah) to name God. This word is also used for the translation of the bible into Greek. However, it was determined that the Jewish spelling of the so-called Tetragrammaton should be kept identical as used in the Jewish language where the word is written from right to left. While, in Greek the word is written from left to right (Greeks read JHWH as HWHJ). These Jewish characters are similar to Greek and are pronounced PIPI. When reading the Bible facsimile the Greek asked which the meaning of PIPI in the fax was. This term was not understandable for the readers and as a result the readers of the transcript used the term PIPI-FAX.
Haus am Gern take this term and transform it into an important reference point for their artistic project. PIPIFAX symbolises nonsense and on the same time, it can change its original meaning when trying to inverse or translate it. The concept of inverse plays a crucial role in conceiving the works of the exhibition.
The second part of the exhibition title "Through the looking glass and what we found there" refers to the book written by Lewis Caroll in 1871. The book follows up Alice´s Adventure in Wonderland. In Through the Looking Glass, the settings and the concept of the book is that everything is a mirrored image of the real world. The story takes place into a parallel mirrored world where everything is in opposite and where the time runes backward.
If you see the images photographed by Barbara and Rudolf they will appear quite normal. All people involved in the photographing process play an intriguing role in the setting of the picture. The big sizes of the photos will allow the public to see every single detail of the work. All the 13 images are mirrored and the concept and elements used by the artists to develop the project can be understood and perceived by the public only from a certain distance.
For example, you will notice at once that some of the characters in the photos are holding some placates, which are nothing else, but elements that we see every day in the city. These elements include the clock of the "Clock Tower", the sign of Tirana Train Station or the billboards with the names of bars and/or hotels in Tirana. A common element repeated in all the photos is the Albanian flag. In some of the photos people are either wearing shirts with the Albanian flag or seating in front of the former Textile Factory in Tirana carrying it in the knees. While, the mosque at "Scanderbeg Square" and the public institutions are on the opposite side. The same for the green building with yellow arrows at Tirana e Re points on the opposite side in the direction of the city centre. The black eagel with two heads, the simbol of our Falg is the only elements that remain the same even if the photos are in revers.
The photos taken in key places in Tirana reflect the political changes and social dynamics that took place in the city during the last month. The artists and students involved in the project have created a series of pictures associated as metaphors for this situation. They try to provide a mirrored situation of the reality in which we live and that we are all part of this converted reality. Our responsibility is to bring it to the right position. This art work enables us to see the world from a different perspective and to question the role that we all play in the society.

Chris Matthews: "White supremacy" is a pretty big part of all of this opposition to Obama
posted at 8:41 pm on May 15, 2013 by Erika Johnsen
Of course a day like today — replete with the incoming details of administrative scandals fraught with authoritative overreach and corruption — could, for this guy, only end with one possible explanation for all of the complaints about President Obama's governing prowess. When in doubt, revert to that ol' progressive standby: Racism and white supremacy, obviously.
The problem is there are people in this country, maybe ten percent, I don't know what the number, maybe twenty percent on a bad day, who want this president to have an asterisk next to his name in the history books, that he really wasn't president. … They want to be able to say, well, he didn't really have that batting average; he really wasn't the first African American president; he really didn't do health care; he really didn't kill bin Laden. There's an asterisk, and they have been fighting for that, the people like Donald Trump, since day one. They can't stand the idea that he's president, and a piece of it is racism. Not that somebody in one racial group doesn't like somebody in another racial group, so what? It's the sense that the white race must rule, that's what racism is, and they can't stand the idea that a man who's not white is president. That is real, that sense of racial superiority and rule is in the hearts of some people in this country. Not all conservatives, not even all right-wingers, but it always comes through with this birther crap and these other references and somehow trying to erase ObamaCare, erase his record in history, and a big part of it is bought into by people like John Boehner, who's not a bad guy, but he knows the only way he can talk to the hard right is talk their language.
Well, that devolved quickly. Firstly, I would merely point out that, no actually, racism isn't merely white supremacists' attitude toward everybody else, and that no category of racism is deserving of a "So what?" dismissal. But, more importantly… what the what? From where is he pulling this 'ten-to-twenty percent of Americans are white supremacists' number, and then extrapolating from that the fact that this racist fraction of the American population is somehow the ruling voice of and force behind the entire conservative movement? I'm pretty sure that the mass opposition to the government commandeering of the entire health-care industry stems from fiscal and economic concerns about — you know — the government commandeering of the entire health-care industry, rather than from the white supremacy curdling inside of these conservatives' hateful hearts. To hear this guy tell it, you'd think that everybody really, really wanted universal healthcare, but they just can't stand that a black man should get the credit for the legislation, or something. Yes, as Chris Matthews says, all of these instances of bureaucratic abuse do indeed help make the conservative case for small government — and his rejoinder is that they really just can't get over their racism? …Good one.

Fett's the only other figure right now I've got definite custom plans for and will get a couple more for sure... had some ideas of mixing Fett parts with McStormie parts to create an elite squad for him in his role as Super Stormtrooper, in addition to making KOTOR-era and Saga-era Mandalorians. Hopefully he'll be in rotation all year! Extra Lukes, Hans, and an extra Honor Guard for an Indiana Jones custom can wait!

Others are designed to hang loosely on the hips in the same manner which in the ancient times was supposed to add sensual beauty to a lady. Even today waist chain continues to be considered the best way to maintain a waistline. To gain the requisite flexibility, most waist chains are made by chaining or threading together a large number of fine links. Often fine wire work is employed to gain elasticity. The most popular system for fastening comprises of dovetailed hinges locked by piercing a pin through the two ends of the band in position.

November 01-2013
Neighborhood vigilantes in Bristol, England, incinerated an Iranian immigrant they falsely thought was preying on children in the neighborhood.
Bijan Ebrahimi, 44, took pictures of youths vandalizing his flower baskets. A court heard he planned to give the images to police as evidence. But a neighbor saw him with the camera and reported him as a pedophile
The police arrested Ebrahimi, but let him go when they realized the mistake.
However, two days after his release, he was attacked by vigilante neighbors who believed the pedophile story.
Lee James has pleaded guilty to murder after beating Ebrahimi unconscious, dragging him into the street and setting him on fire. He will be sentenced at Bristol Crown Court later this month
Some neighbors jumped to the conclusion that Ebrahimi was a pervert when he was seen taking photos of youths vandalizing his hanging baskets.
Lee James, 24, responded to the rumors by assuming they were accurate and then taking the law into his own hands. He kicked Ebrahimi unconscious. With the help of pal Stephen Norley, James then dragged him into the street, soaked him in gasoline and set him alight.
Police earlier took Ebrahimi away for questioning as an angry mob chanted "pedo, pedo," British slang for pedophile. But he was freed when officers found he had done nothing wrong.
One resident of the Bristol neighborhood told the Mirror, "When the police took him away, everyone was cheering. Then he was released back into that."
Another added: "Whoever started those rumors now has to live with that. He wasn't a pedophile and now he's dead. That's a hell of a thing to have on your conscience."
Ebrahimi had learning difficulties and lived alone in public housing. He was registered as disabled and unable to work.
He ran into problems with his neighbors July 12 when he took the photos of the vandals.
According to witnesses, a mob believing the pedophile rumors surrounded his apartment before police took him away. But on his release, the rumors reached fever pitch.
Avon and Somerset Police spokesman Martin Dunscombe confirmed the victim was an innocent man: "We can categorically state he had not taken any indecent images and nothing of concern was found on his computer."
Relatives described Ebrahimi as a "loving and caring man" who lived for his garden. They said in a statement: "Bijan was a quiet, disabled man whose only joys in life came from his horticultural interests and his cat. He was an excellent uncle and a warm, supportive brother."
The Independent Police Complaints Commission (IPCC) and Bristol City Council have both launched reviews into the way the case was handled. Six police officers are under investigation for gross misconduct, presumably for failing to see that Ebrahimi received protection when he was released.
A spokesman said: "The review will examine all the authority's contact with Mr. Ebrahimi to explore what, if any, lessons can be learnt."
Nick Gargan, the chief constable (police chief) of the community, told the BBC that rumors and speculation about crime are rife in Bristol, a city of 430,000 people on the Severn River in southwest England.
Gargan asked, "Why wasn't that poor man better served by us…. We failed that man."

If the boys' quartet is from Jerry Falwell's "Living Christmas Tree" performance, we took a couple of vans full of people to see it live several years ago. It was well worth the trip, no kidding. They draw heavily from the music department at Liberty University so the talent is exceptional. Every year they have different boys sing that quartet number and it's always a big hit.
Speaking of Christmas, the absolutely worst Christmas in my life happened when I was a teenager in Waverly, New York. My dad always left the Christmas shopping to my mother but that year he decided to do it. We were expecting some family members for Christmas so I worked hard to clean the house from top to bottom. Christmas Eve, about 9 pm, Dad asked me if I'd seen 2 big bags of Christmas presents that he'd hidden under some old blankets in the hallway leading down to the basement. I stopped what I was doing, frozen to the spot, then ran to look in the stairway. There had been several bags of trash there and earlier that day I'd carried them all out to the back yard where I burned them in the incinerator. Among them had been all of Dad's Christmas presents. I don't remember what my dad said, though I'm sure he was kind. All I remember is crying all Christmas day.
