Big disappointment!
I love this style of swimsuit top because of the great support it gives my DD sisters. I have it in many different colors and the fit is always great because it is TTS. Now, to my disappointment, this one is completely off in terms of sizing! It runs extremely small... it looked more like a C than a DD... I'm not sure if the sequined work had anything to do with that. I took it to the store and returned it... even the sales associate compared it against one they had on the rack and she saw what a huge difference it was. She tried to check if a bigger size was available, but unfortunately there wasn't. Please fix this issue... it really is a bummer I couldn't keep it :(
April 8, 2013
I bought 6 new bikinis for my 2 week vacation, most from Tommy Bahama. This one was my favorite! I got so many compliments each time I wore it. The fit was so flattering and it's very comfortable. I happily wore it all day at the beach and the pool. If it comes out in other colors I will buy them.

Water Problem Closes Roadway
By: Kevin Flanigan
Updated: January 30, 2013
That section of roadway was closed to traffic for much of the day. Drivers were forced to take a short detour until the repairs were completed. The water line break was reported about 3:30 Wednesday morning. While water service to a few customers was cut, the bigger problem was the amount of work needed to repair the broken water line and the roadway.
The section of Union Avenue closed by the water main break was opened back up to traffic at 2 in the afternoon..

r FARMIN6DALE OB f. 9 i ill l AN OFFICIAL NEWSPAPER OF THE VILLAGE OF FAJ SERVING THE GREATER FARMINGDALE AREA, BETHPAGE, MELVILLE 15* A MEMBER OF THE O B S E R V E R / T R I B U N E GROUP OF NEWSPAPERS VOL. 9 NO. 51 Second Class Postage has been paid at Farmingdale. N. Y. 11735 • Published by THE OBSERVER, INC., Box 146, Farmingdale. N. Y. Thursday, AllQUSt 1 0 , 1 9 72 Street Assault Scenes such as these shown here from other communities will soon be commonplace in areas of Farmingdale when sewer construction starts. Residents in areas where work is in progress consider themselves indeed fortunate that there have been no fires or need for an ambulance along these streets. In one case a street almost one half mile long was completely isolated to all traffic, including residents, for almost two weeks, since there were no cross streets. In other instances, cars have been marooned in driveways when excavation was undertaken without advance notice to the residents. Progress Closes in: Sewer Work Starts Progress is closing in on Farmingdale: As it inevitably must come to all communities in Nassau County's Sewer District No. 3, work will commence next month to install interceptor sewer lines in Farmingdale and South Farmingdale. The County Department of Public Works announced the award of a contract for over $ 3 million to Hendrickson Bros., Inc., of Valley Stream, for the installation of 19,700 feet of pipes ranging in diameter from 24 inches to 48 inches. Hendrickson was the lowest of eight bidders for the job. According to a County spokesman, following the installation of pipes and backfilling, all damaged pavements, curbs and sidewalks will be restored, lawns will be resodded and any removed trees will be replaced by new trees. Also, professional tree trimmers will be employed to minimize damage to trees which require cutting back. In other areas where similar work has been undertaken, learns of photographers took pictures of the fronts and driveways of all houses along the excavation route for the purpose of providing reference for restoration and to reduce future claims for damage. The work, which will get under way in September and is expected to take one year to complete, will involve the following routes: Interceptor No. 4: Crestwood Blvd. from Southern State Parkway north to 10th Ave.; west along 10th Ave. to Woodward Parkway; north on Woodward Parkway to Sptelman Ave.; west on Spielman to Kent St.; north on Kent to Motor Ave.; west on Motor to Heisser Lane; north on Heisser to Fulton St. Interceptor No. 4D: Willard Ave. from Kent to Merritts Road. Interceptor No. 4C: Crestwood Blvd. from 10th Ave. north to Matthew; east on Matthew to Oakwood Ave.; north on Oak-wood to Orchard St.; east on Orchard St. to Junard Drive; north on Junard to South Main St. As has been done for the other areas covered by the Observer Tribune Newspaper Group, a street by street listing of road openings and closings will be published every week during the course of the work. Information will also be made available as to the exact location and telephone number of the project field office as soon as it is established. Similar operations in Massapequa, Seaford, Wantagh, Bellmore and Merrick have evoked a storm of protests from outraged residents and businessmen. While virtually all are in agreement with the need for sewers, the main basis for complaint has been the contention that disruption has been greater than necessary. In Wantagh, for instance, it ( Continued on Page 12) A Wild Adventure: Crossing the Street The danger to children is obvious. The attraction to children ( the law terms dangerous conditions that would naturally entice children an " attractive nuisance") to climb in and out of such alluring excavations and to clamber over the giant machines prompts most mothers to keep their offspring indoors. Such precautionary measures were impossible while school was in session and school buses often had to disembark their young passengers several blocks from home. One mother remarked: " By the time the kids got home I had to wipe them all off in order to see which one was mine." Some good came of it all: In some neighborhoods mothers cooperated in taking turns in a bus- meeting patrol to escort the children safely from the Bus Stop to the home. In other situations neighbors shared bathrooms when, as it sometimes happened, one side of a street had water and the other did not.

The United Nations General Assembly recognised Palestine as a "non-member state". But it may very well be that Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas has already missed the boat. With the help of graphic designer, Michal Vexler, we have created an infogram to illustrate and explain how demographic changes within the West Bank obstruct the possibility of the two-state solution. The numbers suggest that Abbas' bid to the United Nations was too little, too late.

A 2009 study found that people tend to interpret ambiguous political satire according to their own views and self-image. This has enormous implications for satirical programs mocking democratic behavior, produced by media conglomerates that support Internet censorship. (The following is an essay that I was not able to place with a magazine, but still wanted to share with the world. Feel free to re-post on your blog or website, in accordance with the Creative Commons license. Just give me credit and link back here.)
"The revolutionaries of any decade will become the reactionaries of the next decade, if they do not change their nervous system, because the world around them is changing. He or she who stands still in a moving, racing, accelerating age, moves backwards relatively speaking." – Robert Anton Wilson, Prometheus Rising (1)
On Thursday, December 1, 2011, Stephen Colbert addressed the Stop Online Piracy Act (SOPA), a bill currently under consideration in U.S. Congress, on his late-night political satire program The Colbert Report (pronounced "Cole-bare Ree-pore"). Fight for the Future, a group coordinating the push against SOPA and Protect-IP (a similar bill being considered; the "IP" stands for "intellectual property"), says that such a bill would allow the government to shut down websites for any copyright infringement, while making it a felony to stream copyrighted content without permission. (2) According to PCWorld, the government could also restrict access to foreign sites with the help of Internet service providers (ISPs), or block advertising and payment services from working with the sites. (3) The result, as anyone with a cursory understanding of the issue can predict, would be a drastic reduction our free speech rights and possible damage to the DNS system upon which the Internet depends.

Foals, right: they've been on your telly, in your radio, inside o' yaw brain and quite possibly in bed with your sister… maybe… if you have one… and she goes out with one of the five men who make up Foals. Circular! Nice, nice.
The second of our Artist Mixtape features finds the Oxfordshire-spawned-ish five-piece compiling a cool ten-tracker for your click 'n' search pleasure. Clues are laid, rewards disguised: to make this easy would be no fun at all!
From tracklisting find MySpace; from MySpace find information; from their, something about an oyster. Don't post illegal links, or something. Fully loaded and utterly within the realms of The Law. Band's own MySpace <-- there.
Cut Off Your Hands - 'You And I' (listen at MySpace)
Charlottefield - 'The Eleventh Day' (MySpace)
Great Eskimo Hoax - 'Runs With Scissors' (MySpace)
Youthmovies and Adam Gnade - 'Honeyslides' (listen at Youthmovies' MySpace; Adam's here)

*Apparat *- 'Arcadia' (listen on MySpace)
Skeletons & The Kings Of All Cities - 'Don't Worry' (listen on MySpace)
And says the band 'emselves, currently prepping for the release of their debut album early next year…
_We are currently sitting in borrowed homes trawling through borrowed iTunes lists trying to find something interesting to listen to. Any suggestions? No, me neither. The new Radiohead album is alright, isn't it? Yeah, and that Burial one. Yeah, we read DrownedinSound.com occasionally.
Our new single_ 'Balloons'_, all about the gaseous inflations and deflations of modern life, is released TODAY (review). It comes with an extended Four Tet version that will please (or probably won't please, let's be honest) the prog kids. It pleased us. It was like drilling a hole into our pus-filled craniums and letting it all slop slowly out, like when you puncture a carton of pineapple juice and turn it upside down. Only Kieran was there to mop it all up.
We're playing some shows with Bloc Party. They're going to be alright. And then we're having a month off and chilling the fuck out. Good times._

whats it been. a day since this was written? and already 3 of the songs arent on the myspace pages.
this mixtape idea is a bit poop. just get someone else to host all the files and link to them. then its nothing to do with you. kindof.
Imagine a conversation between Mike Diver and Yoda
Apart from those two, make sense it might not, anyone else listening: if they were.
Or something.

Find out more about this ancient Derbyshire custom by watching the well dressers working on the dressing. The main well in Wormhill is a very large sectional board. This is filled with clay then the theme, drawn on tracing paper, is placed on the clay and 'pricked out'. This means using a dress makers wheel to make marks on the clay along each line, like a dot-to-dot puzzle. The picture is then outlined with alder cones and filled in with other natural materials – beans, berries, reeds, flower petals…

The government is being driven by the unions – who want more regulations and heavier enforcement. This means that company directors are getting more specific and actual duties, instead of implied duties as before. The increase in legislation is tying things down further.
What we should be looking at is having the least number of regulations possible. This is not a dream; if you examine the current mass of regulations you'll find they are repeated with the same requirements presented in many different forms in relation to different aspects of the running of a safe and healthy business.
Increasing regulations means increasing the means to enforce them – this is a cost to both the government bodies responsible for doing so (indirectly the tax payer) and a cost to the businesses who frantically try to comply with the latest batch of regulations without realising that much of the required compliance is already in place. Many businesses waste a massive amount of time, money and manpower reinventing the wheel.
What the government should be doing instead of issuing yet more regs is to review what is there and reduce the number of regulations, simplify and streamline those in existence to allow businesses to get on with their core business. Health and safety is important, but should be used to drive the profit line, not to bleed it.

It is important for all companies to monitor their online reputation, and if it has suffered from attack or worse, from something wrong with customer service. Reputation monitoring can allow that to be fixed before it becomes a big deal.
Seattle, WA (PRWEB) February 07, 2013
WL Marketing's new Reputation Monitoring Service makes sure website owners and companies know what's up - A business can't protect its image unless they know what it is!
Reputation Monitoring Service is an essential in today's marketplace.
Part of being a smart, savvy business person is operating on the web. A lot of people establish web presences through the help of professionals, and this can be an extremely cost effective way to build a really great website, blog and social media platform.
A business must be aware of what people really think about it – or what the competitors are saying.
That is why monitoring a business's reputation on the web is so important. It satisfies two basic functions. The first is supplying better customer service. Second, having a company representative respond to a customer in a forum that had nothing to do with the company can be a powerful tool to reach out to customers.
That can happen because of an efficient reputation monitoring system – find out what customers are saying, both the good and the bad, and you can make real world judgments about improving online presence.
This might include the way certain things are done online, the way the website is arranged. There could be a problem employee that hasn't come to the company's attention. It gives a great way into what people think.
WL Marketing Reputation Monitoring Service is arranged in a keyword/results method, and it is very effective at finding relative content. Not only is this great for refining the services and customer service practices, but it can also be invaluable to find out what the competitors and customers are saying.
The internet has not changed one thing – some business people are simply not fair players, and the same tactics have been used since the beginning of business, though with the internet it is easier than ever to start rumors and spread bad information about a person or business.
One of the oldest ways to do this is to pretend to be a disgruntled customer that got 'horrible customer service'; another is to just shoot unfounded criticisms off or pretend to be an expert and then trash the competition.
No matter what size company, affordable reputation management packages are set to fit the needs and budget, with daily, monthly, and weekly monitoring plans.
It is important for all companies to monitor their online reputation, and if it has suffered from attack or worse yet from something wrong inside the organization Reputation Monitoring can allow that to be fixed before it becomes a big deal, whether it is fighting off an online attack or helping out a customer with extra attention – that kind of personalized customer service can be a big plus to a companies' public image.
An online reputation is just as important as a street reputation, but it is harder to track and be aware of. With the Reputation Monitoring Service, never have to be taken by surprise again!

FINE HAIR MEDIUM HAIR COARSE HAIR ETHNIC HAIR Feels thin and lacks natural body and bounce. There may be areas where you can see the scalp through your hair. It can be either straight or wavy and is typical of Caucasian hair types.
Feels thicker in texture, both in your individual strands and in the overall volume of hair on your scalp. Medium textured hair can be straight, wavy or curly. Feels rough in texture and may feel like you have a lot of it. Coarse hair can be straight, eg. Asian hair or curly, frizzy. Feels extremely coarse in texture. Ethnic hair includes those with extremely porous, tight curls and all variations of non-Caucasian hair types.
Please Note: Do not confuse lots of fine hair with medium or coarse textured hair. If the shaft of the individual hair feels thin and delicate, and lacks body, even if there are many of them, then the correct category for your hair type is 'Fine'. - Remove This Item 3Processing: None

Trailer for Partners. Partners is a romantic comedy that wryly explores the many ambiguities of the word partner. When Dave, an enterprising, is offered the chance to head his law firm s defense team in a major case, he happily accepts the challenge as this could lead to a partnership. Dave soon realizes that he received this opportunity because the client believes it would be politically sensitive in defense of his company that is being sued for alleged gay discrimination, and the client mistakenly thinks that Dave is gay. The truth is that although Dave s roommate Christopher is gay, Dave is very definitely heterosexual. They are friends, not romantic partners. Driven by ambition and the chance to become a partner in the law firm, Dave decides to go along with the charade.

"And I'm glad that you are able to see reason," he continues, turning back to the bulky man, "It's an all too rare trait."

Her armor and shield looked about as battered as she is, cuts, dents, and obvious signs of wear and tear on them, and the flanged mace she kept hanging from her belt still showed the dark red of dried blood on its head, remnants of her victims yesterday. The plan outlined seemed pretty sound to her - at least more sound than the slaughterfest that the incompetents in charge of the castrian army sent them into yesterday - and she quietly - or as quiet as someone clad in full plate armor can be - stood up and moved to join the group that was headed to see Lord Randel.
Sneaking around was never something she was good at, so the supply run was out of the question.

"You seem to be one who understands what I mean, no? I can tell from the way you carry yourself, you take pride in the badges of honour shown by that armour. Each is a fight you have fought with your all, and survived." Leonhard said to the woman with a hearty laugh, giving her a rough, yet friendly pat on the back.
"Still, it looks like quite a few of those are fresh. Were you one of the few others I saw cleaving their way out after the masses had fled?"
Posted 20 December 2011 - 11:40 PM
"Yet I disagree with what you said. They are not badges of honor. They are lessons learned, and paid for. In blood and lives." She then gestured to the bandage covering her right eye. "Some just happen to be more expensive than others."
Posted 20 December 2011 - 11:47 PM
"The rest of you are to go on the supply runs. Avoid violence if possible, but if it's that or your lives, or more importantly the supplies, then don't hesitate to kill them before they call for help.
"Both of you have dangerous tasks ahead of you. The armoury is just outside, and I have Kris taking stock. Those of you without equipment, ask him for what you want, he'll hand it to you. If he gets snippish then I'll smash his bloody head in."
He looks at you for another moment, then nods, satisfied. You are dismissed.

"If it weren't for those scars, those lessons, could you call yourself the same warrior? Without them, you would be just as you were before even taking up your mace. To have those scars is the proof that you have lived in the heat of battle and emerged the victor. So even if you do not think of them as such, they are still badges of honour." Leonhard finished with a smile.
Posted 20 December 2011 - 11:52 PM
The conversation sounds interesting, but I can't quite see straight yet. Best to wait a little longer, and hope I get my vision back. Teacher said this stuff was supposed to mess with the opponent's eyes for a week. My drops were meant to prevent the worst of it, but even the guys I tested it on said that they had problems seeing for a few days. Nothing to do but wait.

He picked a good, solid battle-axe from the quartermaster, who proved reluctant to give steel to a foreigner. As for his bow... that he kept, trusting to Petrarchan yew, and his ringmail hauberk. He didn't intend to be parted with either until his death day.

Lou gives several current examples of the Ecclesia of God using prayer to topple demonic rulers and authorities in the heavens which resulted in the removal or shifting of unrighteous rulers and authorities on the earth. He ties together the mistreatment of the Native Peoples of North America to the injustice of killing the unborn. And he shares several prophetic dreams of massive prayer movements among the African and Hispanic population calling for an end of abortion. Mentions several dated things such as 'yesterday was anniversary of Trail of Tears (mistreatment of Native Peoples; This session of Ramp was shot on Dec 15/ 2011) and Lou ties it to Abortion; also mentions 'next year' so meaning 2012 plans to march from Houston to Dallas, and calling for an all Women Call' on the 39th Anniversary of Roe v Wade' - which was Jan 23, 2012

Planning Your Health ItineraryHealth: The traveler's most valuable possession When travelers begin to plan a trip, it is common for them to construct a careful itinerary, evaluate how much money will be needed, and to read about the area they will visit. Perhaps they picture themselves walking along ancient byways or examining grand vistas. No one ever pictures themselves confined to the hotel for days with diarrhea, yet almost half of travelers to developing countries will end up this way if they don't take precautions. Not only will illness wreck a costly trip, but it may also put some travelers in awkward or even dangerous situations. Sometimes, diseases acquired during travel may have prolonged effects on your health or, in the extreme case, may be fatal. Simple precautions taken prior to travel can reduce your risk of illness far away from home.

Just wondering if anybody has tried both and how the compare? There are some Tyler Warren/Mini Simmons videos on youtube that I find really motivating. I want to surf like that!
I would say the MS paddled easier but the Sweet P was a lot more fun and added a little more performance. Tyler Warren is sick, he surfs great and probably one of the sweetest guys to watch. Remember though this guy could surf anything and look stylish!
Potato moves way more than the mini simmons. It's a matter of con caves and outlines.
The mini simmons is a more down the line board while the potato will go all over the place

yeah good stuff Iggy, i agree with that! pivot points are a little different. That might make the Potato a bit better in smaller surf and the simmons a bit better in slightly larger surf.

Hey All, use my Firewire email, [email protected] for emergency issues, not my forum inbox. However, please avoid contacting me directly with questions on choosing a board, just use the glorious forum. Cheers!
Thanks guys. That's exactly the kind of info that I was looking for.
Hey Chris, has Firewire considered posting videos of people surfing their boards? I can find videos here and there but they are not the kind of videos that tell me how the board was intended to surf. For example, the video of Daniel Jones doing air 180s is cool but it doesn't show me all that much about the board itself and the kind of lines it was intended to draw.

Thank you! Hilarious, and only a little sad because it's true. | ||||
Why are the hosts exasperated and annoyed throughout the show with each other and their guests? I like the concept of the show but each time I give it another chance I find myself turning it off.It's very uncomfortable to watch.This message has been edited. Last edited by: bostonviewer, | ||||
I was watching Love It or List it tonight and couldn't believe my ears when Fergus was telling Hillary that installing a newel post and railing was going to be a major expense. He obviously has never heard of installing a key lock in the floor to attach a newel post to it. It is quite simple and inexpensive and does not require going through the floor to the ceiling below like he said in the show. I am convinced now that he is not a very good contractor. I have been questioning all along some of the remodeling solutions comes up with and if they are required to the extent that he insists they be done. Now I know my instincts are right on the money. | ||||
Please, please, PLEASE take this show off the air. Hilary's work, David(?)'s personality and the nasty homeowners are not fun to watch. I am a huge HGTV fan, but I'm hardly watching at all now, because it seems like either Love It or List It or Property Brothers is playing ALL the time. I can't take it any more! I signed up for these message boards just to express how sick of this show I am. It's not one of those "love to hate it" shows... I just hate it.

Hello all, I do not know what stores are in Canada, but maybe Hillary could stick to the budget's given to her if she stops shopping at all the designer stores she usually goes too. One show the couple was at the limit of their budget than they show the contractor putting up crown moulding ?? I'm sure the room would have looked as good Minus the expense of that moulding. Do they not have Home Depot or similar stores In Canada ? Hillary is always buying "the best" materials than something comes up unexpected and oops, sorry a kitchen make over is Theron thing you wanted done, nope not in the budget!! | ||||
Why do they always use blue wood on the shows. The builder of my home told me, when I asked him why he didn't use it in my new house, that it costs twice as much. So if their budget is so limited, why do they use this expensive blue wood? The truth is out there | ||||
Bluwood is treated to protect against moisture and Formosan termites. Here is a blurb about it from http://www.ecob.net/index.php?p=products&id=110 I see it being used on a number of the Canadian produced shows, it might be code required in parts of Canada. Just because regular wood is cheaper doesn't mean I'm going to build my deck out of regular wood when pressure treated is available. With respect to the budget I suspect that it is all part of the show format that Hillary is given a pretty unrealistic budget to meet the owners must haves. ECO BLUE SHIELD™ PROTECTED LUMBER Another Level of Protection For our clients who do not require the Fire Inhibitor, Eco Blue Shield™ Protected Lumber is protected against moisture, mold, wood-rot and wood-ingesting insects, including Formosan termites. Our proprietary technology is eco-friendly and a cost-effective way to protect the 'bones' of your home for life. As we know, the lumber we use today is different than just 25-30 years ago. Today's lumber is juvenile or new-growth lumber and is more susceptible to the natural enemies of wood such as water, mold, fire and insects. This is because this juvenile lumber is more porous and essentially acts like a sponge - absorbing moisture and then subsequently producing mold and/or wood rot which then in turn attract termites. It's a natural, destructive and unhealthy cycle that attacks untreated lumber and is responsible for potentially billions of dollars in damage of home repair. Logs are frequently stored underwater - sometimes for more than a year, so even though the lumber looks fine during construction, there are no guarantees what goes on inside your walls once you seal it shut with drywall. At Eco, our goal is to change the way we build with lumber by embracing our sustainable technology. Sustainable & Eco-Friendly Long term, our protected lumber will reduce the demand for timber because lumber built dwellings will last longer and will not require the same amount of maintenance or repair due to mold and termite damage. More importantly, Eco Blue Shield™ Protected Lumber provides a healthy and mold-free environment for the people that live there. Eco Blue Shield™ Protected Lumber emits virtually no VOCs while being protected in the most innovative way. To learn more about Eco Blue Shield™ protection, go to the Products and Technical Specs pages, or contact one of our sales associates. General Disclaimer Any advice given here is general in nature and is not necessarily valid for your given area. If in doubt check with your local codes enforcement department for what is required when doing electrical, plumbing or structural work on your house. Permits may or may not be required in your area and home owners may not be able to DIY some tasks. I have no way of knowing if you have the skills needed to complete the tasks you are asking about, when in doubt seek professional assistance. My advice may be worth exactly what you pay me for it. :-) For the record I did not stay in a Holiday Inn Express last night. | ||||
They receive promotional consideration in exchange for using certain products or materials. WRT the overall budget, I believe projects to be completed are predetermined; ever notice (with 1 notable exception over the entire life of the series) that they only demo the rooms/spaces ultimately completed? | ||||
Is this the best you can do? I'm so sick of this show and it seems to take up a good part of HGTV time lately. I hate all the bickering - it's so annoying and uncomfortable. | ||||
On almost every show David goes way over budget, but Hillary never gets another penny. David should have to deliver on the budget he is given as Hillary has to. I think that is so unfair. | ||||

Still Undecided, Consider This!
I know a lot of people don't obsess over politics like I do, so I thought I would try to boil things down to some basic points.
There is a clear choice in this election. If we just look at one thing about each candidate for president, the differences are obvious.
Both President Obama and Governor Romney graduated from Harvard University. What each did after leaving Harvard speaks volumes about their character.
Mitt Romney headed to Wall Street and procured funding for a business venture from some shady folks from Latin America. He built a business that specialized in raiding failing corporations, getting as much money as they can out of them and then liquidating the assets, firing the employees and moving on to the next victim. I found this breakdown of Bain's business model that I think sums it up pretty good.
Bain Capital, under Romney's leadership, had one goal: take the money and run. More specifically, their highly successful process goes like this:
- Take over a company
- Borrow millions against the assets
- Procure millions more in taxpayer funded grants and low-interest loans
- Put the millions in grants and loans in their pockets
- File for bankruptcy and hightail it out of town, asap
Kinda sleazy if you ask me…did you ask me?
Barack Obama could have headed to New York, Wall Street or anywhere he wanted to after serving as the president of the Harvard Law Review…kind of a nice resume piece, you know. But instead, he chose to go to Chicago and help people. Two years after leaving Harvard, he took a job with a church based organization called the Developing Communities Project, which was a group of Catholic charities formed to help people suffering through layoffs and plant closings in the Chicago area. The project went on to win many awards and help countless people in Chicago pull themselves up by their bootstraps. Barack Obama then went on to teach constitutional law and entered the state legislature where he began his career in politics, continuing his goal of helping people.
So yeah, there is a clear difference between President Obama and Governor Romney. I go with the guy who helps people, how about you?

Well put. I'm with you… and President Obama.

Living in the "flyover state" of Texas, we haven't been assaulted around the clock by political ads on TV. Romney and Obama have mainly made brief visits to fund raisers here but no rallies. We haven't had many national ads against the President until today. Three Obama bashing ads by the Karl Rove Super Pac America Crossroads ran back-to-back on Brian Williams NBC Nightly News. So let the slime begin from now until Tuesday. We do get many Obama-hate ads by local politicians, even a Republican candidate for Sheriff. The GOP candidates love to tie their Democratic opponents to Obama and Pelosi.
Today is the last day of early voting in Texas. Out of a normal turnout of 1.2 million in Harris County (Houston), there were over 800,000 early voters.

Who The Hell Am I!
I'm a liberal that is extreme in some ways and not in others. I support President Obama unapologetically. I'm a film producer/director/editor, adjunct professor, technician, media critic and photographer when I'm not reading left wing blogs and typing on this one. – On Twitter @ExtremeLiberal or Email at firstname.lastname@example.com

Survey Reveals Great Potential for Big Data in Government, But There Are Barriers to Adoption
WASHINGTON, Feb. 20, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- "Big Data" and other analytical tools have great potential to make governments more efficient and improve citizens' lives, particularly in health and public safety sectors. A new study released by the TechAmerica Foundation and commissioned by SAP AG (NYSE: SAP), revealed that 87 percent of federal IT officials and 75 percent of state IT officials say Big Data can have real and immediate impacts on how governments operate.
The survey of nearly 200 public IT officials, conducted by renowned pollsters, Penn Schoen and Berland, found that 83 percent of federal IT officials say Big Data solutions can help government cut the federal budget by at least 10 percent, or $380 billion. Those surveyed also believe that Big Data can save lives, for example by improving medical treatments.
Key Findings:
Big Data Has Potential to Save Lives and Money
The study cites a number of ways the use of Big Data can benefit the public sector, including:
Big Data Faces Barriers to Adoption
While Big Data technology is expected to offer citizens significant benefits, the survey also reveals cultural and practical barriers to adoption, including:
"The findings from this study underscore the infinite potential of Big Data and reaffirm the findings of our Big Data Commission," said Jennifer Kerber, president of the TechAmerica Foundation. "That governments can save money and improve their service to citizens is clear from this study but it's also clear that we must find ways to overcome adoption barriers – quickly."
"The ongoing budget debates in Washington and many state capitals are a useful moment to appreciate what big data tools can do for government," said Jennifer Morgan, president of SAP Public Services. "By combining disparate sources of data and analyzing them in real time, government leaders and citizens can turn 'Big Data' into 'smart data' and gain a much clearer picture of how to save taxpayer dollars and even save lives. Practical concerns such as costs, consumer privacy, and return on investment must be addressed carefully so that we can gain the enormous benefits of using Big Data tools."

On the first sector of the journey, my accommodations include a "roomette" with a couchette for sleeping. Later on I will have a family-sized cabin to stretch out in as we cross Nebraska.
In the days ahead I will tell you much more about life on the Amtrak train -- for now, let me just leave you with the thought that there remain few better ways of discovering the many faces of the real America than to visit by rail, especially in an election year.
