How would you feel?
This is the second time it has happened to him, the first was on a TV commercial for our bank that when I had asked they said they were not recording. I let that go, my family thought it was great. But this pissed me off.
I know he's cute and all (mom moment) but since when is this okay. I thought about calling my attorney honestly. But my son thinks its awesome.
What do you ladies think
If used for advertising I would think they would have to get permission
If its an issue the only way to prevent it is to leopard him home.
Quoting luckysevenwow:
No permission needed in a public place which is also on private property, someone else's private property. There's nothing illegal about it.
If its an issue the only way to prevent it is to leopard him home.
Usually places like this will have signage warning visitors that there are cameras and that their image could be used in advertising. Your continued presence in the location is consent.
Me, I don't worry about it.
I don't know why, but this really upset me. I feel like paying over $200 a night for a hotel room, my privacy should have been respected. If they need advertisement, they should hire models. This wasn't a school, or a local event.
Regardless, I'm letting it go. No one else in my family finds it a problem, no need to cause drama. He thinks it's awesome, and my mom scrapbooked it :/
School districtd and sports organizations will do that. It's a mater of course to them because they're dealing with public property.
There may actually have been something in the fine print of the room agreement you signed. It's pretty common.
My kids have been in the newspaper a few times but all pictures were from field trips so they had signed consent to use photos. I've not been in the same situation so I am really not sure how I'd feel about it.
My dd was on the orthodonist's website as part of advertising but she signed a consent form for it (she was 18 when her braces were removed).
honestly I think I would be taken aback by it, and check and see if I had signed a consent. We've stayed at one of those water park hotels and I do not remember there being any signage saying that we could be filmed.

No I'm a pre-trib rapture person but the difference is I believe the anti-christ must be revealed before the rapture happens based on 2nd Thessalonians 2:1-10.I also believe more prophecies must be fulfilled before the rapture and we are not close to it although we are in the last days.We need to see more prophecies fulfilled is all.
Why do you think the anni christ needs to be revealed first? The day of the Lord (trib) proceeds the revealing of the lil anni, not the 'day of the rapture'. Why do you think other prophecies need to be fulfilled before the rapture? Which ones?

Jamie Kaufmann has been married to her high school sweetheart, Jeff, for 14 years and stays home with her two boys, ages eight and six. She spends her days doing home school, managing her online store for chemical-free e-cloths, and writing at her Milk Allergy Mom blog and Facebook page. Jamie works with many allergy-free companies, and loves to share about recipes, safe products, and food allergy life in general.
My son is a bright, athletic eight-year-old and has a life-threatening milk allergy. But we are blessed that he outgrew his egg, soy, and even peanut allergies as a toddler. May that bring hope to many!
People may assume that physical well-being is the only issue with food allergies and holidays, and they would be partly correct. (We use a helpful checklist to make sure our son is safe at each family gathering.) But eight years into this food allergy thing, my husband and I realize that emotional well-being is just as important. That means we make a conscious effort to be in the company of uplifting communities, and that has affected our decisions about school, sports, church, and yes, even family.
Family celebrations are a hot topic on our Facebook page, and many families are feeling misunderstood by those closest to them. Grandma may kiss a food allergy baby with cheese and chocolate on her mouth. Uncle may try to sneak a food allergy toddler a cookie. Cousins may be chasing a food allergy kid down with Doritos hands. Grandpa, perhaps, thinks it's all one big exaggeration because nobody had food allergies when he was a kid!
We've heard it all, and know there are many hurting food allergy families out there. Family dissension over food allergies is not just about physical safety, but it is also about not feeling loved and supported. Food allergy parents can have these unsettling feelings, but eventually so can food allergy children when they are old enough to realize that their relatives do not take their condition seriously.
Family is family, and I get that. But Easter, Thanksgiving, and Christmas are no times to subject ourselves to "salt-in-the-wound" situations. It is important that food allergy families have joyful holiday celebrations just like everyone else. In some ways, holidays can even be therapeutic for food allergy families as they splurge on delicious allergy-safe foods, forget the stress of everyday allergy life, and spend time together appreciating all they have and each other. If extended family stifles this special family time, then sometimes tough decisions may need to be made.
Here are some helpful options for celebrating the holidays with food allergies:
1. Celebrate the holidays at your own house with your own family.
2. Host an allergy-free meal at your home for your extended family or loved ones.
3. Attend meals outside your home where there is support and understanding.
4. Eat a safe meal at home and then take a safe dessert to share with your loved ones.
5. Eat a safe meal at home and join your family/friends later for chatting and playing.
6. Meet up with extended family on another day close to the holiday, with fewer expectations.
Food allergy families should not be afraid to think outside the box and celebrate in ways that make them feel safe both physically AND emotionally. I personally love the option of eating your meal at home and then joining the rest of the family for dessert and games. My husband and I have chosen this option many times.
When we do attend large family gatherings, the kids eat for five minutes before they beg to be excused, take off their shirts, and start wrestling! As my husband always reminds me, food is not the centerpiece of the holiday for the kids. Our kids love playing with their cousins more than anything!
It is our hope that everyone can spend some time and share a meal with those closest to them this season. But sometimes keeping our sanity calls for unconventional methods, and that's okay. Most importantly, we wish all the food allergy parents and kids much love and joy this holiday season... however they decide to celebrate.

There was a time in the 1960s and '70s when the term "Uncle Tom" was one of the most biting insults one African-American could aim at another. But it bears remembering that Harriet Beecher Stowe's 1852 novel, "Uncle Tom's Cabin," might have been the most important weapon in the abolition of slavery in the United States.
Inspired by the memoirs of a Maryland slave who escaped to Canada, Beecher Stowe humanized those thought of as property in much of the country, albeit disseminating some cultural stereotypes in the process. It became America's second-most widely read book of the 19th century (next to the Bible) and stimulated a heated debate that played a big role in the secession of the Confederacy and the Civil War.
Playwright Carlyle Brown uses that conflict as the backdrop for a virtually conflict-less play called "Abe Lincoln and Uncle Tom in the White House." It's currently onstage at the Guthrie Theater's Dowling Studio, but, by the conclusion of the performance I attended, I found myself curious about what Brown was trying to accomplish in writing it or the Guthrie in hosting a production.
What sounds like it could have been something provocative about the topic of race in America is anything but. Rather than insightful, it's exasperatingly superficial, skimming over the surface of its subject matter and seldom allowing two exceptional actors, Steve Hendrickson and James A. Williams, to demonstrate the breadth of their skills.
The awkward title gives you almost everything you need to know: The fictional Uncle Tom appears in the president's office on the eve of his signing the Emancipation Proclamation in 1862. Neither knows how he came to be there, leaving one to wonder if you're witnessing a dream Lincoln is having. Williams' Uncle Tom drops in a few details about things that happen to him in the novel, while Hendrickson gives brief glimpses of how Lincoln was traumatized by the "27,000 deaths" at the battle of Antietam (the total death count was actually 3,650).
But no significant metamorphosis takes place for either character, and, despite a fine set by Joseph Stanley, it's a disappointingly un-theatrical production, with the two actors often standing stock still and delivering their lines at one another. Although it's only 75 minutes long, its lack of pace and energy makes it feel longer.
The actors aren't at fault for this production's failures. In serving as playwright, producer and director, Brown may have donned too many hats and not received enough input from others. Had he done so, he might have been pushed further about his goals in creating it and how he could have better achieved them. But this production reminded me of what a good book can do that a theater production can't. When, ideally, it should have been the other way around.

Cousins are county council election rivals
Two cousins from Rathgormack will do battle in the local elections in June for a council seat in Waterford Co. Council's Comeragh Electoral Area that borders Carrick-on-Suir.
Dairy farmer Seanie Power was selected to run for Fine Gael at the party's candidates selection convention before Christmas and replaces outgoing Rathgormack Cllr Mary Greene on the Fine Gael party ticket.
Now his cousin Michael Flynn, also a dairy farmer, has announced he will run as an independent candidate in the election. Mr Flynn contested the 2009 local elections and says he was happy with his performance then and is positive about securing a seat this time.
He says he has been very active locally in opposing the Eirgrid Gridlink power line project and says people should vote for him to send a strong message to Government that they don't want pylons in Co. Waterford.
He is a former chairman and secretary of Rathgormack IFA branch, former Juvenile Secretary of Rathgormack GAA Club and has also been actively involved with Macra Na Feirme, Clonea Power Hurling Club, Toastmasters, Foróige and Comeragh Rangers. He is currently involved with Rathgormack GAA Club Committee, IFAC, Glanbia Advisory Committee, Rathgormack/Clonea Playground Committee, Comeragh Rathgormack K9 Pylon Prevention Group and Rathgormack-Clonea Multi-Use Games Area Committee.
Mr Flynn says he won't accept donations towards his campaign and will fund the campaign himself as it will enable him to represent voters without fear or favour.

A troupe of dancers braved market day crowds in Gillingham to perform two Middle-Eastern dances on Monday, 21 July. The exotically-clad ladies from Medway Adult Learning Service were there to promote the benefits of belly-dancing. Gail Brown, who has been dancing for 10 years, said: "I danced right up until I went on maternity leave and began again as soon as I could after my baby was born. It's a great way to keep fit, make friends and provides lots of laughs." Marion Webster agreed. She said: "The benefits are endless. Apart from improving my posture and general fitness, I have learned about Middle Eastern music and my social life has expanded. I've danced at fetes, charity events and in farmers' barns. It really opens up the world. I'm even thinking of taking up Arabic so that I can understand the lyrics of the music." Charlotte Burton has been teaching belly-dancing for more than six years with Medway Adult Learning Service. She said: "Belly dancing is suitable for anyone, no matter what their age, shape or size. It is a non-judgmental and inclusive activity which helps everyone gain confidence." Evening and daytime classes start in September and run for 12 or 30 weeks. Courses are suitable for all levels of abiltiy from beginners upwards. For those who do not want to commit to a longer course, a taster session will take place on Saturday, 18 October.

Published 4:00 am, Sunday, April 20, 1997
SANTA CLARA - Carrying a theme of toughness and good character into the draft, the 49ers came away with a quarterback as strong as a lineman, a fullback derivative of Tom Rathman and a tight end with primary skills as a blocker.
The quarterback, Jim Druckenmiller of Virginia Tech, was selected with the 26th overall pick and tabbed as Steve Young's successor somewhere in the near future.
The fullback with the flat-top haircut, Marc Edwards of Notre Dame, will back up William Floyd and play on special teams. Fullback became a pressing need Saturday when Tommy Vardell, who is unsigned, informed Rathman, his position coach, that he would not be returning this season.
The tight end, Greg Clark of Stanford, will back up Brent Jones now that free agent Ted Popson will not be re-signed.
"Our thing for the draft was toughness and tenacity," said Vinny Cerrato, the 49ers' director of player personnel. "The three guys we took fit that criteria. There's no holes in any of them - on or off the field.We feel we helped ourselves there."
Edwards and Clark came at a price beyond the rounds in which they were selected.
Fearful that Carolina was set to take Edwards with the 56th pick in the second round, the 49ers moved up two spots to 55 in a trade with Philadelphia; they gave the Eagles their sixth- (190th) and seventh-round (227th) picks for the privilege.
The trading continued in the third round. The 49ers gave their No. 3 (86th) and No. 5 (156th) picks to Indianapolis for the Colts' spot in the third round, 77th overall, in order to get Clark, a 25-year-old who served his Mormon mission in 1991-92.
"Historically, (club president) Carmen Policy makes our last pick, so he's taking the credit for this one," coach Steve Mariucci said. "It happens to be his highest pick ever. It's right in line with what I've been talking about - drafting tough guys. Clark has proven that to us. There's added value in his ability to long-snap. That's important for us."
Sunday is now a rest day for the 49ers. While the other 29 teams plunge into rounds 4-7, San Francisco is through because it traded away its remaining picks to acquire Edwards and Clark.
"We're going to be here," Mariucci said. "We're going to watch the draft. We're all ears. Someone may want to do something for next year. And we'll look for free agents after the draft. There will be some good players left on the board."
While they rated Druckenmiller as the best player available at the 26th pick, the 49ers tried to trade up for Miami's No. 15 in order to take Cal tight end Tony Gonzalez. Alas, Kansas City moved up to 13 in a trade with Houston and tabbed the Golden Bear.
In Druckenmiller, the 49ers got the highest-rated quarterback in the draft - and the biggest and strongest one as well. At 6-foot-4-1/4 and 234 pounds, the Virginia Tech Hokie is as tough as an old boot and as strong as many linemen.
How strong? He can bench-press 350 pounds, squat 500 and was the winner of Virginia Tech's Ironman contest, which required him to push a station wagon, drag a weighted sled, run through obstacles and toss sandbags over a wall.
All of which means if your battery goes dead, if your sled dogs refuse to mush and your levee breaks, Druckenmiller is your man.
"I'm a believer that the quarterback has got to be a tough guy," Mariucci said. "Not only physically but mentally. When you get to know Jim Druckenmiller, you're going to find out he is as tough as they come."
Now, can he play quarterback for the 49ers?
It's a reasonable question considering he played out of the shotgun formation much of the time and ran the option offense as well for Virginia Tech. With the 49ers, this big, strong-armed, right-handed quarterback will have to come in and learn from a scrambling left-handed quarterback as he serves an apprenticeship to Young.
"He's really got the system down well and that's going to be an advantage for me," Druckenmiller said in a conference call from Blacksburg, Va., where he rented out PK's, a bar and grill, for a draft party.
"It depends how well I learn all the words, the communication. That's going to be the only gap right now. As soon as we close that gap, I think I'll learn it relatively quickly."
If Druckenmiller is the quarterback of the future, he'll be well seasoned and closing in on 30 when he takes over as starter. He turns 25 in September and figures to back up Young for at least a couple seasons.
"I think that's an ideal situation for a quarterback coming in nowadays to the NFL, with all the complicated defenses," he said. "It's probably best to sit back and learn than to get thrown in having to deal with some hard times."
Druckenmiller is the first quarterback taken on Round 1 by the 49ers since Steve Spurrier in 1967.
The 49ers went after Edwards because he does everything a fullback should do while reminding them of their fullback of the '80, Rathman.
"He's got a lot of the same characteristics I had when I played," Rathman said. "I think Marc will be able to come in and be an all-around fullback. He can catch the ball, he's an adequate runner and a good blocker."
Clark, fielding calls from friends and the 49ers at his home in Palo Alto, couldn't have been happier about his short commute time.
"It's nice to have it done, over with, but I had no idea I'd be going to the 49ers," said Clark, the fifth tight end chosen. "I had some family here, watching TV, when the phone call came. Shoot, we're still celebrating - everybody eating pizza, drinking pop, having a good time.
"Of course I want to play in their offense as soon as I can, go right in there," said Clark. "But I know they have a great tight end in Brent Jones. I'm looking forward to the opportunity of learning from him, having him share the knowledge he's gained."
Clark, 25, was being pursued by Jacksonville and Philadelphia as well as the Niners. His agent, Steve Baker, said, "I think this is a pure case of the Niners realizing they had to get ahead of Jacksonville if they wanted him. It's clear his stock has been rising ever since they saw him catch at the practices for the East-West Shrine Game."
Mariucci said offensive line was the team's priority going into the draft but the 49ers were unable to select one after trading away picks for Edwards and Clark. To compensate, Mariucci said Harris Barton will move from right tackle to left tackle while Kirk Scrafford shifts to right tackle as Young's backside protector.<

Kevin Strootman has expressed his delight after virtually completing his move from PSV Eindhoven to Roma.
The midfielder landed in the Italian capital last night after a transfer fee, reportedly €17m, was agreed between the two clubs.
"I'm really happy," the 23-year-old commented. "I'm finally here and I'm a Roma player at last. The negotiations did go on for a while, but everything was finally resolved positively."
Strootman is a Holland international who joined PSV in June 2011 from fellow Dutch club FC Utrecht.
The player will undergo his medical this morning before joining up with his new teammates for pre-season training.

It's Hot! It's Sexy! It's...Big Blue?
Move over, Netscape. Step aside, Pixar. IBM is suddenly looking like the hottest tech stock in town. Since Jan. 15, the computer giant's share price has skyrocketed 42%, to around $119. And that could be just the start. Some on Wall Street are betting IBM's shares will hit $140 before yearend.
Why the Big Blue runup? IBM is suddenly facing some of its best growth prospects in years. In January, the computer maker reported that its fourth-quarter earnings shot up 39%, to $1.7 billion, on a revenue rise of 10%, to $21.9 billion. For all of 1995, earnings jumped 38%, to $4.2 billion, while revenues zipped up 12%, to $71.9 billion. "That's revenue growth this company hasn't seen in 10 years," crows Chief Financial Officer G. Richard Thoman.
Behind the euphoria is investor confidence that IBM Chairman Louis V. Gerstner Jr. is finally weaning the company from a too-heavy reliance on slow-growth products. IBM figures that 57% of its revenue last year came from such high-growth segments as personal computers, software, and services--and that those businesses expanded at a 19% rate. Meanwhile, the revenue share of old-line technologies is shrinking by three percentage points a year.
Big Blue is even doing its level best to become an Internet play. By far, its stellar performer is its $12.7 billion services business, which is expanding at a 30% clip annually. IBM sells corporate customers all sorts of consulting assistance, from managing networks of PCs to outsourcing entire computer operations. To boost the business even further, IBM late last year created a division to build Internet products. And on Feb. 20, the unit introduced software programs IBM hopes will transform its mainframe and mid-range computers--and all the corporate data stored on them--into powerful Web "servers." "It will be our ability to help our customers unlock their data that will be our advantage," says Thoman.
Even IBM's aging core businesses are on a roll. Mainframe sales fell off a cliff in 1991, after peaking at about $12 billion. In the past two years, sales of such machines have stabilized at around $7 billion annually. Plus, as companies realize PCs are far costlier to operate than once thought, IBM's mainframes are finding renewed demand--firming margins by making heavy discounting a thing of the past. What's more, IBM moved to new, cheaperto-make machines based on PC-like microprocessor technology ahead of competitors Amdahl Corp. and Hitachi Ltd. Those rivals will not have competitive mainframes until the second half of 1996.
SOFTWARE BET. Other formerly problem-plagued businesses are turning around for IBM, too. Sales of disk-storage devices used with mainframes are up. And a product transition in the highly profitable AS/400 minicomputer line should pick up this year as new models become available. Even the once troubled PC business is coming around. By focusing on higher-margin products, such as high-end home PCs, IBM has rebounded. Merrill Lynch & Co. analyst Daniel Mandresh figures the PC business edged into the black last year, turning a $100 million profit on sales of about $10 billion.
IBM isn't completely out of the woods. Analysts figure Gerstner may try to cut costs, mainly overseas, by another $600 million this year, raising the specter of a write-off. Gerstner's big bet on software also has yet to pay off: In 1995, he plunked down $3.5 billion for Lotus Development Corp., and he recently spent another $743 million for little-known Tivoli Systems Inc., a developer of software to manage computer networks.
For 1996, Wall Street estimates that IBM's revenue will expand by 6%. Insiders say the chairman is demanding a 10% increase. If he gets what he wants, there could be plenty of upside still to IBM's stock.

My First Days of Tiny House Living
They say if you wish for something long enough, all your dreams will come true, and a few days ago I got the chance to live out my own tiny house living dream, thanks to an awesome friend 😉 And no that's not my place in the photo.
You see since leaving the wheel I've been curious about tiny house living, downsizing and minimalism in general. And as I reached a fork in my road I decided to head down the path of tiny house living.
I'm not new to living in small places, as previously I owned a 42m² apartment, but now I come to think of it, I soon needed to find some space and bought a 10-acre parcel of land where I could get back in touch with the earth. But that was then and this is now.
Now, I don't have the stresses of working the 9-5 and can find peace in my writing, which is usually performed sitting at a small desk.
The studio I'm living in now is approx 20m² and just big enough to hold my essentials. In fact, as I moved out of my 180m² house and placed a lot (and I mean a lot) of stuff in storage I realised my road to minimalism is still a long one.
I'm already questioning the need for all the stuff I packed into the 3m x 3m x 3m cube I hired from the storage company, and maybe tiny house living will help me to see the error of my ways.
The path forward must contain less if I'm to enjoy more.
And the pain of moving this stuff, hopefully, will be the reminder I need to keep moving forward to a life of less.
Already I've noticed a few challenges of tiny house living and it's only been a few days, but these are challenges, not obstacles, so I'll just approach them with the problem-solving skills I've developed over my life time.
The Challenges of Tiny House Living
The studio I've moved into hasn't been designed specifically as a tiny house and has a lot of wasted space that could be better utilised. And as this isn't my studio, I'll have to make do the best I can.
If you're thinking of trying Tiny House Living then I can only suggest you do it right from the get go and design it yourself. That way it's perfectly tailored to your lifestyle and needs.
I have a lot of LEGO and want to pursue this passion. making stop motion animation, over the next year, so I can already start to imagine the sorts of custom built storage I could utilise if I was starting fresh.
I'm almost exclusively a cook at home sort of guy, and only resort to takeaway in extreme cases, so while write this I'm also cooking up some bacon and can only imagine the smells getting into my clothing and bedsheets.
A good external venting system is a must in a small house otherwise, you'll always be reminded of your last meal.
More recently I experimented with a raw vegan diet, and can see how this type of lifestyle would suit Tiny House Living, and the space you save when removing the cooking appliances can be utilised for more food storage.
There isn't any reason why you can't host more people in your tiny house, although you should remind yourself that things you tolerate may not always be comfortable for others.
I live by myself and my kids will only stay a few nights a week, so I'm sure I can make this work, but the real test will be what they think. I can imagine it's going to be quite a shock for them, so I'm planning to spend as much time out of the house as possible.
This complements the mantra of minimalism, which is life is more about experiences than possessions.
So if you're planning to have a few friends over, keep the tiny house experience brief, or at the very least offer an alternative venue as any claustrophobic tendencies in your guests might start to change the mood of the conversation.
This wasn't meant to be a definitive guide on tiny house living but rather a quick opportunity to get a few thoughts transcribed.
I still haven't fully unpacked as yet, so my number one tip when moving into a tiny house is to start with less, and then move more stuff in as your space permits. This will spare you the uncomfortable feeling of being overwhelmed with the transition.
Life is a journey and not a destination.
I'm grateful for getting this opportunity, to experience tiny house living, without having to make a full commitment and will endeavour to ensure this part of my journey is a memorable one.
Finally, I'm heading to Portland in a few months and might check out the Tiny House Hotel whilst there. They are apparently very welcoming and have tours once in a while.

The relationship between game show host Donald Trump and conservative columnist George Will is a
love-hate one. It started back in March when Will suggested in a column that it may be a more feasible strategy for Republicans to abandon hope of obtaining the presidency and instead focus on taking over Congress. To that, Trump on FNC called Will "a totally overrated fool" and said "I don't think he's really smart, he looks smart with the little glasses and hair swept to the side."
Fast-forward to this past Sunday's episode of ABC's "This Week" in which Will referred to Trump as "this bloviating ignoramus."
Responding at lightening speed, Trump tweeted, "George Will may be the dumbest (and most overrated) political commentator of all time. If the Republicans listen to him, they will lose."
The crew at FNC's "The Five" discussed and it led to Eric Bolling saying this: "You know what Donald Trump represents? He represents a new Republican, a new GOP, a new conservative, where it's not the old, established, George Will, boring out of their mind, bored out of your mind listening to him in Washington."
Does this mean Will will lose his spot on "This Week" to Trump? The jury's still out on that one. But let's compare the two.
Here we have George Will
Age: 71
Hair: Hazelnut #81, purchased at your nearest men's grooming store.
Education: Princeton University
Spouse: Mari Maseng, Republican consultant who previously worked on Texas Gov. Rick Perry's presidential campaign before he withdrew from the race.
TV behavior: Subdued, pensive and professorial. Will is someone you can listen to if you're older than 30 and/or are stocked up on Ritalin.
Best on-air moment: We'll get back to you on that.
Controversy: As mentioned above, a column by Will in March offered up an alternative plan to Republicans that assumed the GOP wouldn't win the presidency in the November election. It caused a ruckus in the conservative media and got the attention of the guy conservatives want to piss off the least: Rush Limbaugh. Will was asked to clarify his column and did a little backtracking on "This Week," saying, "At this point, I would say no, keep fighting [for the presidency], but prepare to retrench."
Famous relative: Will's wife Mari Maseng is well-known in Republican politics and worked as a speechwriter in the Reagan White House.
Workload: Twice-weekly column for WaPo, news analyst for ABC and regular panelist on the network's Sunday program "This Week."
Accomplishments: Pulitzer Prize winner.
And here's Donald Trump
Age: 65
Hair: Scorched, tossed, turned, flipped, pressed, twirled…in short, a disaster.
Education: Wharton School of Business, University of Pennsylvania
Spouse: Melania Knauss, a former model.
TV behavior: Obnoxiously loud, confrontational and generally dismissive of everything that can't be tied back to his wealth.
Best on-air moment: His interview with "Entertainment Tonight" from 2006 in which he called TV personality Rosie O'Donnell the following: "disgusting," "a slob," "bad people," "a disaster," "fat," "ugly," "chubby," "unattractive both inside and out," "fat ass" and "a loser."
Controversy: Relentless birther.
Famous relatives: Three of Trump's five children, Ivanka, Donald, Jr. and Eric are involved in the production of Trump's successful NBC show "The Apprentice."
Workload: President of The Trump Organization, Host of "The Apprentice," occasional candidate for president of the United States, author.
Accomplishments: Billionaire, New York Times bestselling book

Product Description
A dazzling debut novel by one of Granta's Best Young British Novelists featuring an unforgettable young heroine

Anais Hendricks, fifteen, is in the back of a police car. She is headed for the Panopticon, a home for chronic young offenders. She can't remember what's happened, but across town a policewoman lies in a coma and Anais's school uniform is covered in blood.

Raised in foster care from birth and moved through twenty-three placements before she even turned seven, Anais has been let down by just about every adult she has ever met. Now a counter-culture outlaw, she knows that she can only rely on herself. And yet despite the parade of horrors visited upon her early life, she greets the world with the witty, fierce insight of a survivor.

Anais finds a sense of belonging among the residents of the Panopticon – they form intense bonds, and she soon becomes part of an ad hoc family. Together, they struggle against the adults that keep them confined. When she looks up at the watchtower that looms over the residents though, Anais knows her fate: she is an anonymous part of an experiment, and she always was. Now it seems that the experiment is closing in.

Named one of the best books of the year by the Times Literary Supplement and the Scotsman, The Panopticon is an astonishingly haunting, remarkable debut novel. In language dazzling, energetic and pure, it introduces us to a heartbreaking young heroine and an incredibly assured and outstanding new voice in fiction.

Following the official opening of the South Devon Highway earlier this week, work is continuing on the project and the next phase of works has been announced by Galliford Try.
From Monday 29th February to Wednesday 2nd March, one lane will be closed on the northbound off-slip road to Kingskerswell to enable embankment works to continue.
To ensure the safety of the workforce, this lane closure will extend onto one lane of the northbound carriageway. To minimise disruption to road users the lane closures will be in effect between 09:30 and 16:00.
Similar, future ad hoc lane closures will be required along both the northbound and southbound carriageways of the South Devon Highway over the coming month.
These lane closures will allow finishing work to verges, and work on landscaping the embankments to continue.
These works are weather dependent: when the programme is confirmed the dates will be announced on the website.

Bill O'Reilly Taken Out By Anthony Weiner's BFF Wendy Walsh
Y'all ever notice that there are never Twitter-bot campaigns, or huge Facebook petition drives, aimed at leftist media figures who cross lines of moral decency? You know the people I'm referring to: The progressives who use the word "fuck" on air in the same sentence as "America" and/or "Trump'; the libtards who ignore piles of evidence and rush to defend Hillary and Podesta; the liars who scream that "Russia hacked our election"; the loudmouth female celebrities who scream about "blood on my sheets" in front of audiences containing young chldren?

Under the Endangered Species Act (ESA), Cook Inlet beluga whales are listed as endangered, which means they in danger of extinction within the foreseeable future throughout all or a significant portion of their range.
In May 2000, NMFS designated Cook Inlet beluga whales as depleted under the Marine Mammal Protection Act. However, at that time, the agency determined that the Cook Inlet beluga whale population was not threatened or endangered under the ESA. But, because this stock did not show significant evidence of recovery thereafter, NMFS initiated a second Status Review in the spring of 2006.
In October 2008, NMFS determined that beluga whales in the Cook Inlet needed protection under the ESA, and, on October 22, 2008, listed the population as endangered. In April 2011, NMFS designated critical habitat for these whales in the Cook Inlet.
IUCN Red List: Beluga whales are listed as near threatened, meaning it is is close to qualifying for or is likely to qualify for a threatened category in the near future. Cook Inlet belugas, however, are listed as critically endangered, meaning they are facing an extremely high risk of extinction in the wild, and the calculated probability of extinction during the next 10 years is greater than 50%.
Beluga whales are listed under CITES Appendix II.

Wanted to be sure you saw this editorial in today's New York Times on President Obama's plan to reduce the deficit, create jobs, strengthen entitlements and ensure all Americans pay their fair share.
Key excerpts:
"This time, [President Obama] issued an unabashed call for economic fairness in cutting the federal deficit, asking as much from those on the economy's upper rungs as from those lower down whose programs may be trimmed."
"It pays for the desperately needed jobs plan he sent to Congress last week without more mindless hacking at government programs, and would be a much better alternative to the $1.2 trillion in across-the-board spending cuts that loom if Congress does not pass a debt plan this year."
"Republicans will, of course, mount obdurate opposition in Congress, since they have no intention of allowing the government to ask anything from the wealthy and corporations. Even before the plan was announced, the party's leaders had rolled out their rusted artillery, calling an increase in taxes on high earners 'class warfare' and insisting that it would fatally wound 'job creators.' (In fact, less than 2 percent of the nation's small businesses would be affected by the tax increases.)"
"…the president did not let that predictable line of argument stop him, and even had a good rejoinder: 'This is not class warfare. It's math. The money is going to have to come from someplace.' It could come from the middle class, from the elderly and the poor, by asking them to give up benefits from programs like Medicare, Medicaid and food stamps — as many Republicans are advocating. It could come by pulling money from road building, schools, food inspection and other vital government services. Those are unacceptable choices, he said, particularly if the rich give up nothing…"

AN Arima man who was shot nine times after buying doubles last week has died in hospital.
Dead is 47-year-old Sheldon Isaac of Peytonville, Carapo.
According to police reports, last Sunday morning Isaac was standing in the vicinity of Spancrete and O'Meara Road, Malabar, when he was approached by a man who fired several shots in his direction hitting him numerous times.
He had just finished purchasing two doubles.
Isaac was taken to the Arima Health Facility where he was treated and transferred to the Eric Williams Medical Sciences Complex in Mt Hope where he was warded in a critical condition.
Isaac died at the hospital yesterday.
A man who was later arrested, remains in police custody assisting officers with their investigations.
Isaac's death pushes the murder toll for the year to 33. —JJ

|Altec Lansing Octiv Duo Review
|Home Theater Loudspeakers Speaker Systems
|Written by Mike Flacy
|Saturday, 12 March 2011
You just can't get away from the iPod. It dominates the mobile audio space and everyone seems to have one these days either in iPhone form or the standard iPod Touch. While Apple's perfected the personal experience of music with their portable line of iPods, they have left the sharing of music up to 3rd part manufactures. The iPods's internal speakers certainly don't cut it, so companies like Altec Lansing have developed solutions for music lovers that want to share what they are listening to with family and friends. But what do you do with multiple devices iPods or iPhones in the mix? Fighting over the stereo system can be avoided with a dual dock device, such as the Octiv Duo (MSRP $99.99). Altec Lansing takes that concept a step further by introducing a way to mix the tracks between two devices, allowing different music tastes to be represented.

Astros Notes: No changes in line-up under Clark
Astros notes: No changes in line-up under Clark
Published 5:00 am, Tuesday, September 22, 2009
Young guns sit
A change in the man filling out the lineup card did not lead to much of a change in the lineup itself.
Miguel Tejada moved up to the No. 2 spot for the first time since Sept. 1, and Kaz Matsui was down in the No. 7 spot in the first game under interim manager Dave Clark.
Still, none of the three position players called up this month started for the Astros.
J.R. Towles was on the bench, as Humberto Quintero continued to catch Wandy Rodriguez. Chris Johnson and Tommy Manzella also sat, as Geoff Blum and Tejada manned third base and shortstop, respectively.
And there are no plans for Clark to go with a wide-scale youth movement.
"We're going to try to mix them in whenever we can," Clark said before Monday night's game. "Right now, we're going to try to win ... against the Cardinals. We've got three games against those guys that we're going to try to win starting tonight.
"Whatever I decide to do with the lineup, of course, I'll talk it over with the staff and with Ed (Wade) and we'll make a decision accordingly. But right now, my main concentration is (Monday's) game."
The Astros fell to the Cardinals 7-3.
Before he was fired, Cecil Cooper had committed to playing Towles at least three times per trip through the rotation. Johnson has started five games at third base, while Manzella has made one start at shortstop.
All three played for Clark last year at Class AAA Round Rock.
Sadler goes home
Righthanded pitcher Billy Sadler, done for the season with his placement on the 60-day disabled list, left the club and returned home, according to general manager Ed Wade.
Sadler will continue rehabilitation on his right shoulder dyskinesis. He appeared in just one big league game after signing a contract that included a call-up to the majors if healthy.
Back on the mound
Sammy Gervacio pitched Monday for the sixth time in the last seven games over an eight-day span.
Gervacio tossed one inning, giving up two hits and no runs in pitching for the fourth straight day.
Coming up
Yorman Bazardo (0-1, 8.50 ERA) will make his fourth start of the season in the Astros' second of a three-game series with the Cardinals.
It will be Bazardo's second start since rejoining the rotation. He allowed four runs on seven hits in five innings in a no-decision Sept. 16 at Cincinnati.
Joel Piniero (14-11, 3.31 ERA) will counter for the Cardinals.
St. Louis can clinch no worse than a one-game playoff for the NL Central crown with a win and a Cubs loss. — ZACHARY LEVINE

Our first order of business is to send our thoughts and prayers to those who have been killed.
The first order of business is to get these killers back. This was the first breakout since 1865 and I want to make sure it's the last.
Vice President-elect Mike Pence:
The first order of business is to repeal and replace ObamaCare, it needs to be done, not just as a promise kept, but because in the course of this election, the American people had a choice, and the American people voted decisively for a better future for health care in this country.
Our subconscious minds have no sense of humor, play no jokes and cannot tell the difference between reality and an imagined thought or image. What we continually think about eventually will manifest in our lives. Unfortunately most of us are completely unaware of this fact and we do not monitor our thoughts with the care needed so that we can create in our lives the results we say we want. Since the great majority of people do not feel worthy and deserving of abundant good fortune, radiant good health and total success in all areas of their lives that overriding thought pattern controls the results people get. The first order of business of anyone who wants to enjoy success in all areas of hisher life is to take charge of the internal dialogue they have and only think, say and behavior in a manner consistent with the results they truly desire.

Installing Tiles: a Concise and Detailed Guide
You can find proof of how durable tiles are in the ancient Roman houses that still have their tile flooring in a pristine state.
If you're planning to install tiles on your own or if it's your first time to do so, you have to understand the proper techniques in tile installation. It isn't as easy as it seems, so be sure you also have all the necessary materials ready before you begin. Listed here are the steps for a good quality tile installation project.
Prep work. Before setting up your first tile, you have to plan a layout that enhances the number of whole tiles and minimize the utilization of cut tiles. Make a dry layout, putting all of the whole and cut tiles on top to see if they fit. Later on, be sure that the surface exactly where you'll install your tiles is effectively cleansed and free from any protrusions. Scrape away any dirt and grime. Wipe away dust with a wet cloth and let it dry thoroughly. Next, blend an adequate quantity of thinset mortar. It really is advisable that you use a latex additive instead of water so that the tiles can have a solid groundwork to bond on.
Assembly. Push the mortar onto the surface to be tiled through a trowel. Spread the mortar throughout the space in long, even strokes. Remember that the thickness of your mortar will be based upon the size of your tiles. A small tile will require a mortar width that corresponds to its own, while a big Provenza tile would only require mortar that is half as thick.
Put the tile squarely onto the mortar with your fingertips. Push it down with a little twist of your wrist. Repeat this technique accordingly for every tile or tile sheet. Be more cautious when you are installing small tiles like the Vetro glass tile. Ensure that you apply consistent pressure for each tile to avoid getting misaligned tile levels. As soon as all of the tiles are in place, let them set overnight.
Polishing. Once the tiles have been set, remove any mortar from the tile surface and joints. Whether you are making use of Vetro glass tiles or any form of tile, it truly is significant that all of the mortar is removed to help keep your work clean. Mix a batch of grout and apply it onto the spaces between the tiles utilizing a trowel. When applying grout, you must start from the end of the space towards the center. Allow it to dry for 30 minutes, and then clean any unwanted grout using a wet cloth or sponge.

23/02/2016 - 06:32:01Back to Election 2016 Ireland Home
A Labour Minister of State who stormed out of a live radio debate has described the discussion as an "absolute disgrace".
Ann Phelan was taking part in a debate with the other 14 election candidates in Carlow Kilkenny, broadcast on KCLR last night.
But in the heat of the two-hour debate, and about 15 minutes before the end of the broadcast, she told her fellow candidates she was "fed up with the whole bloody lot of ye", and promptly left the studio.
She also said: "I'm just going to give up here now…I came in here and I've been completely ignored."

Shalane Flanagan is ready to run Boston
On Monday, Flanagan will race in her first Boston Marathon, not only as a hometown heroine, but also as the American female favorite.
For Flanagan, who now lives in Oregon, her fourth career marathon will also be her Boston debut. She was 10th in the Olympic marathon in London last summer, and won the US Olympic marathon trials early in 2012.
But Boston is extra-special.
"I used to dream of this moment, what it would look like to be an elite athlete," Flanagan said during the elite runners press conference Friday at the Fairmont Copley Plaza Hotel in Boston. "I was a spectator and a fan and to actually be part of the race, and actually be considered an elite athlete at this race completely blows my mind and it's really surreal."
Even though Flanagan has yet to run the Boston Marathon, she'll consider this a hometown run.
"This is my city, in a way," Flanagan said. "I look at it almost as my home course even though I haven't run the [Boston] Marathon yet, I just feel like it's nice having the expectation for us to perform well, and to represent our country well, just added incentive to pull the most out of ourselves."
Flanagan spoke about how she'll handle the fans on the course, most of whom will be cheering her on throughout the race.
"If it gets me too excited or too emotional, that's bad," Flanagan said. "But at the end of the race is where I think it's going to be crucial, when I'm tired, knowing that people care about my performance and are invested in how I do, that elevates my level of expectations and my level of commitment to suffer for a little bit more."
- Steve Silva, Boston.com senior producer, two-time Boston Marathon sub-four hour runner.
- Ty Velde is a 16-time Boston qualifier who's completed 12 consecutive Boston Marathons and 25 marathons overall. Ty is now training for his 13th Boston run and will provide training tips for those who train solo and outside, no matter what temperature it is.
- Rich 'Shifter' Horgan is a 19-time Dana-Farber Marathon Challenge team member who runs in honor of his father, who died of colon cancer. He will provide updates on local running events with a focus on the charitable organizations that provide Boston Marathon entries for their organization's fund raising purposes

And advice first: when the URL is long, use tinyURL ;-) I have read the Wikipedia article to which you pointed. And it is funny how you are stealing words and wording from that article - both in the question you posed to Julian and now when you are answering me. Even if you might not realize it yourself, your are committing much of the same bad deeds that you are accusing Julian for. Did you never use irony yourself? Your comments to Julian smells of a preplanned attack - it smelled even before Julian answered. And the fact that you continued the attack even after Julian lifted the weil of his ironical commentary, smells the badder. That is why I hailed Julian for answering in good faith. As for the Wikipedia article, it contains list of many kinds of behavior which I could accuse you for. But also, the Wikipedia article is not an outright list of example of bad behaviours. It is just as much and advicory article about how to best get your point through in the Wikipedia system. It is an article advicing how to work with - instead of against - the system. For instance, it might have brought Julian further, if had not used irony. It would, for instance, not have given anyone excuses to go after him. Thus the WIkipedia article can be seen as friendly advices to participants in the Wikipedia. More spesificly, it is not an article about how to identify trolls. Whereas the way you presented that article smells more of demonstration/interrupton to make a point. Or, it reminded me about the times when I make a discovery about something, and are looking for an opportunity to present it. Telling another participant that he is disruptive, also smells of wanting to silence. If you believed in the policy you are trying to foster, then you should not asked innocent questions, but told more openly about your suspiciions. The we could have had a chance to debate these things. Instead you saw the possibility to statuate an example. Unfortunatly, your motives shines all to clear through. You are not gonna convince many for your case this way. But you might get someone to side with you against one person. But not more than those that agreed with you in advance. -- leif halvard silliReceived on Monday, 17 March 2008 21:49:45 UTC
