As part of the TOS Review Crew, I was given the opportunity to review Abraham Lincoln: A New Birth of Freedom, and the accompanying study guide, which is part of the Heroes of History series from YWAM Publishing.
I've had the privilege of graduating two students through homeschool, so far. Some of my sweetest memories are of the early years when our mornings centered around cuddling on the couch with a read-aloud. We'd get up, do our morning chores, have breakfast, then cuddle up and read, read, read.
And much of that reading time was centered around the Heroes of History series from YWAM. I cannot not say enough good things about this series. These books can be a backbone of any history study.
There's nothing like being transported into another time through the pages of good book.
The Heroes of History series from YWAM is made up of no less than 20 individual books and sets. Each individual book is a focused, encouraging biography of an important figure in history. They cover inspiring individuals from Abraham Lincoln, to Milton Hershey, to Clara Barton, and more!
Each book is thoroughly researched, accurately written and extremely entertaining.
If you're looking for inspiring Christian Heroes, they have that too in their Christian Heroes: Then and Now series. Be sure to check out both series to round out your child's education and entertainment.
As I said before, the Heroes of History books are encouraging and entertaining. Abraham Lincoln: A New Birth of Freedom is no exception. This is not a dry, boring, biography.
Authors Janet and &Geoff do an amazing job of weaving together a living story. Lincoln's life is covered in charming detail, displaying the political events, and personal experiences that shaped the man who was to become our 16th president and leader during the civil war.
Tough topics are tackled with grace and age-appropriateness. Your reader (or listener) is sure to be entertained.
Since I used this book with my 8 year old emerging reader, I used Abraham Lincoln: A New Birth of Freedom as a read aloud. My son, who is definitely a wiggle worm, was entertained by the story, which kept his attention.
I didn't utilize the study guide as much as I would have liked; it was just a bit above my son's level. However I can see that it is a valuable resource that can help extend and solidify the students knowledge of Abraham Lincoln.
Every study guide, can be bought as a physical book or an easy download. Every study guide includes work and information on correlating vocabulary, geography, critical thinking activities and more.
I would highly recommend getting the study guide for your Heroes of History books. They take the reading deeper and help drive home the morals of the stories in new and exciting ways.

The Verdict Is Still Out On Texas Electricity Deregulation
Texas deregulated its electricity market 10 years ago. Greentech Media calls it the "oldest and most successful deregulated electricity marketplace in the U.S." It's certainly the oldest, but is it really the most successful?
The Greentech Media article trots out rosy statistics, such as the increase in renewable energy, which increased from one percent in 2002 to over 8.5 percent last year. Wind grew 10 times over, from 2.6 million megawatt hours (mWh) to 26 million mWh. Texas has over 10,000 megawatts (MW) of installed wind capacity, more than all other states. I am all for increasing renewable energy, and Texas should be proud that it leads the U.S. in installed wind capacity.
The article also cites the fact that by 2008, 80 percent of registered Texas voters "favored a competitive electricity market, and by 2010, 55 percent of residential customers had selected a competitive retail electricity provider or product." Okay, Texas voters favor a competitive electricity market, but does that mean deregulation has brought lower electricity prices?
Not according to a report released last year, which stated that prices above the national average in Texas cost residential consumers $11.5 billion since deregulation began in 2002. The added cost to all consumers (residential, commercial and industrial) is even greater. The average residential price of electricity in deregulated areas in Texas was up to 42 percent above the national average. That doesn't sound very successful to me, particularly during the greatest economic crisis since the Great Depression.
A 2009 report on Texas electricity deregulation by McCullough Research found that "lower rates, the fundamental promise of deregulation, have never been realized." The report found that the average electricity rates in deregulated areas "far outpaced rates in the 25 percent of Texas not deregulated, and in neighboring states that are equally dependent on natural gas."
The report also claims that residential electricity prices in Texas increased 64 percent since 1999. The report attributes the rate increases to "the cumulative effect of deregulated rates increases is staggering for Texas households and the state's economy."
Both reports make recommendations to improve the system. The 2009 report recommends a simple improvement: more transparency. The report cites the Australian market as an example. The Australian market requires disclosure of market information within two days. In 2007, Texas required disclosure within 60 days. The report recommends two days, which would save Texas electricity customers $956 million a year, or about $52 on an average annual household electricity bill.
It seems that saving money these days is a good thing when some folks are struggling just to survive. The amount that can be saved, according to the 2009 report, might seem small to some, but to a family barely making it, every bit counts.

From 1st to 8th grade I never missed one day of school.
My friends cousin used to hang out with Michael Jackson and I seen him a few times. He used to make us alphabet soup. Michael would write little love notes in my soup using the letters. My mom found out and told me not to return.
I have been to the lost city of Atlantis!
I've met the NFL League MVPs from the past 10 years and, at least 12 Super Bowl MVPs. I mauled Terrell Davis, Jerome Bettis, Emmitt Smith.
I had a verbal altercation with Deion Sanders, in his "pre-Christian" days and I haven't forgotten it. He better watch his back, cause it's still on!
Terrell Davis told me that I was crazy...."girl, you crazy!
I told the writer Peter King that he was sexy since he lost the weight. (I was just trying to get him to say nice things about Nashville.)
I got love advice from Neil O'Donnell.
Once while drunk in a 2 story bar, I was upstairs and chunked ice cubes at a beloved Titans player because he was talking to some random female. I had good aim. He also said that I was crazy.
Sheesh, I could go on and on, but I need a nap.
Oh yeah, I talked to Gunny on the phone a few times. He said that I sounded Oriental.???? I also talked to BiPolar once. Now, for some reason, they both hate me.
I talk to The Don at 2 a.m., quite a few times.
Everytime I'm picking up food, I talk to Bulluck4daMVP.
I'm a high maintenance text messager.
When did this thread turn into a celebrity-contact contest? Sheesh.
I used to publish an NFL team web site, 17 players, and 4 agents.
And, I am smarter than this guy.

Move the reciprocal saws and other cutting alternatives to a prominent location. Move the circular saws to some obscure storage area. Arrange a particular area for circular saw work with some local dust management including some kind of baffling to help contain dust within the area along with a vacuum dust collector, maybe with a power outlet for the saw and a switch that turns on the vacuum when the saw is powered up. doors: there have been a few suggestions for doors. assuming they're a good idea, john's comments suggest stiff, smooth surfaced doors made of a material or painted with a coating that has a small electrostatic affinity for dust. all of that is a lot of work, of course. seems to me good to consider any work at all as a lot and arrange some times for a team to do it, whatever "it" turns out to be. _______________________________________________ Noisebridge-discuss mailing list Noisebridge-discuss at lists.noisebridge.net https://www.noisebridge.net/mailman/listinfo/noisebridge-discuss

Alzheimer disease causes progressive cognitive deterioration and is characterized by beta-amyloid deposits and neurofibrillary tangles in the cerebral cortex and subcortical gray matter.
Alzheimer disease, a neurocognitive disorder, is the most common cause of dementia; it accounts for 60 to 80% of dementias in the elderly. In the US, an estimated 13% of people ≥ 65 and 45% of people ≥ 85 have Alzheimer disease. The disease is twice as common among women as among men, partly because women have a longer life expectancy. Prevalence in industrialized countries is expected to increase as the proportion of the elderly increases.
Most cases are sporadic, with late onset (≥ 65 yr) and unclear etiology. Risk of developing the disease is best predicted by age. However, about 5 to 15% of cases are familial; half of these cases have an early (presenile) onset (< 65 yr) and are typically related to specific genetic mutations.
At least 5 distinct genetic loci, located on chromosomes 1, 12, 14, 19, and 21, influence initiation and progression of Alzheimer disease.
Mutations in genes for the amyloid precursor protein, presenilin I, and presenilin II may lead to autosomal dominant forms of Alzheimer disease, typically with presenile onset. In affected patients, the processing of amyloid precursor protein is altered, leading to deposition and fibrillar aggregation of beta-amyloid; beta-amyloid is the main component of senile plaques, which consist of degenerated axonal or dendritic processes, astrocytes, and glial cells around an amyloid core. Beta-amyloid may also alter kinase and phosphatase activities in ways that eventually lead to hyperphosphorylation of tau and formation of neurofibrillary tangles.
Other genetic determinants include the apolipoprotein (apo) E alleles (ε). Apo E proteins influence beta-amyloid deposition, cytoskeletal integrity, and efficiency of neuronal repair. Risk of Alzheimer disease is substantially increased in people with 2 ε4 alleles and may be decreased in those who have the ε2 allele. For people with 2 ε4 alleles, risk of developing Alzheimer disease by age 75 is about 10 to 30 times that for people without the allele.
Variants in SORL1 may also be involved; they are more common among people with late-onset Alzheimer disease. These variants may cause the gene to malfunction, possibly resulting in increased production of beta-amyloid.
The relationship of other factors (eg, low hormone levels, metal exposure) and Alzheimer disease is under study, but no definite causal links have been established.
The 2 pathologic hallmarks of Alzheimer disease are
The beta-amyloid deposition and neurofibrillary tangles lead to loss of synapses and neurons, which results in gross atrophy of the affected areas of the brain, typically starting at the mesial temporal lobe.
The mechanism by which beta-amyloid peptide and neurofibrillary tangles cause such damage is incompletely understood. There are several theories.
The amyloid hypothesis posits that progressive accumulation of beta-amyloid in the brain triggers a complex cascade of events ending in neuronal cell death, loss of neuronal synapses, and progressive neurotransmitter deficits; all of these effects contribute to the clinical symptoms of dementia.
Prion mechanisms have been identified in Alzheimer disease. In prion diseases, a normal cell-surface brain protein called prion protein becomes misfolded into a pathogenic form termed a prion. The prion then causes other prion proteins to misfold similarly, resulting in a marked increase in the abnormal proteins, which leads to brain damage. In Alzheimer disease, it is thought that the beta-amyloid in cerebral amyloid deposits and tau in neurofibrillary tangles have prion-like, self-replicating properties.
Symptoms and Signs
Patients have symptoms and signs of dementia.
The most common first manifestation is
Other cognitive deficits tend to involve multiple functions, including the following:
Impaired reasoning, difficulty handling complex tasks, and poor judgment (eg, being unable to manage bank account, making poor financial decisions)
Language dysfunction (eg, difficulty thinking of common words, errors speaking and/or writing)
Visuospatial dysfunction (eg, inability to recognize faces or common objects)
The disease progresses gradually but may plateau for periods of time.
Behavior disorders (eg, wandering, agitation, yelling, persecutory ideation) are common.
Generally, diagnosis of Alzheimer disease is similar to that of other dementias (see Dementia : Diagnosis).
Evaluation includes a thorough history and standard neurologic examination. Clinical criteria are 85% accurate in establishing the diagnosis and differentiating Alzheimer disease from other forms of dementia, such as vascular dementia and Lewy body dementia.
Traditional diagnostic criteria for Alzheimer disease include all of the following:
Dementia established clinically and documented by a formal mental status examination
Deficits in ≥ 2 areas of cognition
Gradual onset (ie, over months to years, rather than days or weeks) and progressive worsening of memory and other cognitive functions
No disturbance of consciousness
Onset after age 40, most often after age 65
No systemic or brain disorders (eg, tumor, stroke) that could account for the progressive deficits in memory and cognition
However, deviations from these criteria do not exclude a diagnosis of Alzheimer disease, particularly because patients may have mixed dementia.
The most recent National Institute on Aging–Alzheimer's Association diagnostic guidelines also include biomarkers for the pathophysiologic process of Alzheimer disease:
Other biomarkers indicate downstream neuronal degeneration of injury:
Elevated levels of tau protein in CSF
Decreased cerebral metabolism in the temporoparietal cortex measured using PET with fluorine-18 (18F)–labeled deoxyglucose (fluorodeoxyglucose, or FDG)
Local atrophy in the medial, basal, and lateral temporal lobes and the medial parietal cortex, detected by MRI
These findings increase the probability that dementia is due to Alzheimer disease. However, the guidelines do not advocate routine use of these biomarkers for diagnosis because standardization and availability are limited at this time. Also, they do not recommend routine testing for the apo ε4 allele.
Differential diagnosis
Distinguishing Alzheimer disease from other dementias is difficult. Assessment tools (eg, Hachinski Ischemic Score—see Table: Modified Hachinski Ischemic Score) can help distinguish vascular dementia from Alzheimer disease. Fluctuations in cognition, parkinsonian symptoms, well-formed visual hallucinations, and relative preservation of short-term memory suggest Lewy body dementia rather than Alzheimer disease (see Table: Differences Between Alzheimer Disease and Lewy Body Dementia).
Patients with Alzheimer disease are often better-groomed and neater than patients with other dementias.
Modified Hachinski Ischemic Score
Differences Between Alzheimer Disease and Lewy Body Dementia
Safety and supportive measures are the same as that of all dementias. For example, the environment should be bright, cheerful, and familiar, and it should be designed to reinforce orientation (eg, placement of large clocks and calendars in the room). Measures to ensure patient safety (eg, signal monitoring systems for patients who wander) should be implemented.
Drugs to treat Alzheimer disease
Cholinesterase inhibitors modestly improve cognitive function and memory in some patients. Four are available; generally, donepezil, rivastigmine, and galantamine are equally effective, but tacrine is rarely used because of its hepatotoxicity. Donepezil is a first-line drug because it has once/day dosing and is well-tolerated. The recommended dose is 5 mg once/day for 4 to 6 wk, then increased to 10 mg once/day. Donepezil 23 mg once/day dose may be more effective than the traditional 10 mg/day dose for moderate to severe Alzheimer disease. Treatment should be continued if functional improvement is apparent after several months, but otherwise it should be stopped. The most common adverse effects are GI (eg, nausea, diarrhea). Rarely, dizziness and cardiac arrhythmias occur. Adverse effects can be minimized by increasing the dose gradually (see Table: Drugs for Alzheimer Disease).
Memantine, an N-methyl-d-aspartate receptor antagonist, appears to improve cognition and functional capacity of patients with moderate to severe Alzheimer disease. The dose is 5 mg po once/day, which is increased to 10 mg po bid over about 4 wk. For patients with renal insufficiency, the dose should be reduced or the drug should be avoided. Memantine can be used with a cholinesterase inhibitor.
Efficacy of high-dose vitamin E (1000 IU po once/day or bid), selegiline, NSAIDs, Ginkgo biloba extracts, and statins is unclear. Estrogen therapy does not appear useful in prevention or treatment and may be harmful.
Drugs for Alzheimer Disease
Preliminary, observational evidence suggests that risk of Alzheimer disease may be decreased by the following:
However, there is no convincing evidence that people who do not drink alcohol should start drinking to prevent Alzheimer disease.
Key Points
Although genetic factors can be involved, most cases of Alzheimer disease are sporadic, with risk predicted best by patient age.
Differentiating Alzheimer disease from other causes of dementia (eg, vascular dementia, Lewy body dementia) can be difficult but is often best done using clinical criteria, which are 85% accurate in establishing the diagnosis.
Treat Alzheimer disease similarly to other dementias.

From the Design Desk: Where Designers Can Go
Your local Peet's Coffee isn't the only place designers can go for a change of scene or a jolt to the brain. And, believe it or not, the internet is not the only space for design communities.
If you're a freelancer working from home you might occasionally miss the company of coworkers. Jelly is a "causal" work meeting group set up for this very purpose. The host provides a place to sit, wireless internet, invites interesting people to "talk to, collaborate with, and bounce ideas off of." Started by Amit Gupta and Luke Crawford in New York, it has since spread around the country and anyone can start a "Jelly." They just suggest that you "bring a laptop (or whatever you need to get work done) and a friendly disposition."
In the same spirit of cross-pollination, Japan-based architects Astrid Klein and Mark Dytham of Tokyo's Klein-Dytham Architecture (KDa) started Pecha Kucha. The idea was to provide a place for young designers to meet, network, and show their work—keeping it fun and casual, like the pub culture from Dytham's native England.
Pecha Kucha is now being hosted in more than 170 cities around the world. Generally over drinks, a dozen or so presenters show 20 slides, spending 20 seconds on each slide. So the presentations are many and concise—a mixture of architects, graphic designers, industrial designers, and artists.
The next Pecha Kucha in San Francisco is May 1. I signed up to show slides on Chronicle's publishing design. Yikes! The lineup includes architect Peter Anderson, Efe Cakarel of the online film hub The Auteurs, and Pecha Kucha founder himself Mark Dytham. So if you're in San Francisco come on by!

Ignite (ignite.oreilly.com) is another great way to get together! they started in Seattle and have spread all over the world. they're similar to pecha kucha nights but have enough differences to stay separate. you should check it out next time we host one in the city! 🙂

Dear Daughter;
A birthday is the perfect day to reflect on the days that have gone by and look forward to the days ahead and I'm so glad you had that moment in the sun to do just that. You certainly are blessed with a kick ass husband and an incredible family. Don't forgot those fur balls too.
You've reached new heights this year. You not not only wrote but also published a novel. You have a job you love, one you're incredibly good at. You have two girls who will make a great impact on the world.
Yep, you are blessed, my darling daughter. My birthday wish for you is that for the next 365 days, you continue to recognize and appreciate the blessings in your life. Each night, count the five things that you are grateful for. On those incredibly tough days, you might have to reach deep, but in the end, you'll realize that the birds singing in the morning distracted you from the problem you were contemplating, you will smile when you think how your favorite song came on the radio, and how a gentle squeeze of your hubby's hand seemed to make everything alright.
Some blessings are small but no less important. And, this, dear daughter, is my birthday wish for you. That your days are filled with blessings large and small and, more importantly, you recognize them all.
Our Coffee Talks is a letter, where we chat about the daily grind, the thoughts percolating in our heads, or the general ideas and shares of life after coffee.

Most Underrated Film StarsMovie stars that have not achieved the status or fame that they deserved.
The Contenders: Page 3
James Franco is such a nice Actor in 127 Hours, An American Crime, Spider-Man, Howl, Milk, The Wizard of Oz... And he's underrated too much.
Tilda Swinton is by far the best working actor today! Just look at her resume: 'Orlando', 'The War Zone', 'The Deep End', 'Michael Clayton', 'Julia', 'I Am Love', 'We Need to Talk About Kevin'.
She's prolific and exciting! Even her failures are fascinating to watch (Constantine anyone? Swinton was more interesting than Keanu Reeves).
He's a newer actor, in Blue Valentine he was tremendous, totally got robbed of a nomination at the Oscars. Half Nelson is another example, along with Lars and the real Girl. All good movies. All because of him. - logblobo
He's acting in suicide room it's just amazing!
I know tons of people who haven't seen or heard of any of the Bourne movies and/or don't even know who Matt Damon IS. Seriously, this generation is going downhill.
Not every actor can manage to do accents like French and Texan accents like he can. This man is a legend
Beautiful and very talented actress:Empire Records(1995), The Craft (1996), Niagara, Niagara (1997), Montana (1998), End of Days (1999), Supernova (2000), Vertical Limit (2000), Investigating Sex (2001), Cherish (2002), The Secret Lives of Dentists (2002), - Alexandr

Skip to comments.Kerry Dumps Joe Wilson From Campaign Team
Posted on 07/27/2004 7:22:20 AM PDT by ConservativeMajority
WASHINGTON (Talon News) -- Last week, the presidential campaign of Democratic candidate Sen. John Kerry (D-MA) very publicly distanced itself from former National Security Advisor Samuel "Sandy" Berger after it became known that Berger was under investigation for removing highly classified documents from the National Archives.
Talon News reported that Kerry's anti-terror policy was removed from the candidate's web site immediately following Berger's dismissal as a campaign advisor. But in the last few days, another advisor has apparently been jettisoned from the Kerry campaign. All traces of former Ambassador Joe Wilson, the central figure in the controversy of faulty intelligence about Iraq and uranium has disappeared from the Kerry web site. Wilson had appeared on a web site www.restorehonesty.com where he restated his criticism of the Bush administration. The link now goes directly to the main page of www.johnkerry.com and no reference to Wilson can be found on the entire site.
Wilson was discredited by a Senate Intelligence Committee report that contradicted Wilson's public statements about how he was selected for a sensitive mission to Niger in 2002 and the results of his report about Saddam Hussein's attempt to purchase uranium in Africa. Wilson represented his investigation as proof that President Bush misled the United States in making the case for the invasion of Iraq. An investigation into British intelligence confirms that Bush's claim was "well founded."
It is likely that Kerry's handlers took advantage of the Berger affair to quietly break official contact with someone who has proved to be something of a loose cannon. The ambassador was known for his vitriolic rhetoric against members of the Bush administration, particularly political advisor Karl Rove. Last year he suggested that Rove be "frog-marched from the White House in handcuffs," over the alleged leak of his wife's identity.
The Kerry campaign did not respond to a Talon News inquiry about Wilson's departure.
Copyright © 2004 Talon News -- All rights reserved.
Kerry and Edwards are the bowls, or shall we say johns. We might be making a mistake flushing them so early and often. Maybe we should have left Berger and Wilson in the bowls a little longer to stink up and stain the joint. You know it takes a lot longer to clean a really dirty toilet than a cleaner one. Come November it might have been nicer to have the democratic bathroom a mess.
We've gotten many requests for a transcript of Ambassador Joe Wilson's chat this morning. He provided some dramatic insights into the workings of the Bush Administration, and talked about his feelings about having his wife's CIA identify exposed by the as yet unidentified senior White House aides. For more information about Joe Wilson, see www.restorehonesty.com.
NOTE: This is an unedited transcript recorded live, October 29, 2003 at www.johnkerry.com
Chatmaster2 (Oct 29, 2003 10:56:59 AM)
Ambassador Wilson, my sister and I are ardent fans of yours and wish youd throw your hat into the ring. My questions, all related, are: how do we get a special prosecutor involved in the case involving your wife? Obviously, Ashcroft cant be allowed to investigatetalk about the fox guarding the henhouse!! Is bushs statement that he doesnt know whether the leaker will ever be found the end of the issue? Does anyone here believe that if he really wanted to find who leaked your wifes name, he couldnt? A crime has been committedin the name of revenge and intimidation! Is nothing going to happen? HELP!!!!
*** Joe Wilson (Oct 29, 2003 10:57:41 AM)
Thanks very much. For right now, I am most interested in seeing that we get John Kerry elected as the next President so we can get our destiny back on track.
Translation: No more shall we hear the dulcet tones of Sandy singing; "A Little song; A little dance; A few more papers down my pants".

Hell be shouting loud.
John Kerry and John Edwards,
Are the central theme.
Biggest libs to ever run,
This is one bad dream.
John will bring his Purple Hearts,
Bought so long ago.
Edwards will just stand and smile,
Nothing else to show.
Me, Ill keep the TV off,
I dont need their spew.
They arent selling what Id buy,
Hope thats true for you.

" I Wonder when Kerry will dump Teresa too."
After seeing her at the ballgame and on the "shove it" video, she strikes me as a potential loose cannon.
She dosen't need Kerry. She can have her pick of men that she would settle for and is obscencely wealthy. In public it appears she has some handlers, which could be a problem for her as she is used to speaking her mind and doing what she wants.
If Kerry challenges her for sticking her foot in her mouth on an issue it could very well be the straw that breaks the Camel's back in their relationship.
Wouldn't it be funny to see Theraaaaazah bitch slap Kerry in public?!
Nancy Pelosi for supreme court?
LOL! Well said. I'd like to see Team Bush pound the Sandy Berger issue until it bleeds. Eight years of treasonous crap (Los Alamos, Lee, etc) under Klinton needs to be shown again and again to the public to remind them of how dumb the libs are in Nat Sec issues.
I did so much for Kerry and the democrats, I made up that story that there were no contacts between Iraq and Niger and they took it to the bank. I was so happy, when they said "Bush Lied". Now look at what they are doing to me and my friend Sandy Berger. After all that we have done for them! Ingrates!
The bottom line here is, Kerry had total access to intelligence that would tell him that Wilson was lying. Kerry chose to go ahead, knowing that Bush was being falsely accused. What does this say about hKerry's future judgment?
You might call them "Suicide Bumblers."
If this had been anything to do with a Republican, the media would have issued this as a statement concerning the removal of the links:
"There is no doubt that the timing of this is politically motivated."
It's not from any site. I got it in an email from a friend.
The picture was taken on Route 38 in Racine County, Wisconsin. It is in someone's front yard & has a spotlight on it at night!
I would too but after a couple of days of Fox only coverage they would be talking to themselves in a empty room. The media doesn't care what crimes democrats commit.
LOL your poem says it all!
If you can;t see the photo....try putting this URL in your browser:
I like it
It finally popped up. Glad you liked the poem.
I think a wheel just fell off the John-john bandwagon. heheh

Juan Cole has all the pertinent details.
3 Responses to Libya, Egypt and the butterfly effect
imhotep September 14, 2012 at 10:38 am #
Here's what Juan Cole left out. In order for the Second coming of Christ to take place, all of the "Jews" must convert to Christianity or be killed. When the Evangelical Christians talk about Armageddon that's what they mean. Evangelical Christians believe that the way to create the conditions for the Armegeddon and the Second coming is to provoke the Muslims into action against the "Jewish nation." In other words start a gigantic war. This film was made to that end. The Right in America wants an end to a Jewish Israel and a "New Heaven and a New Earth" with the "returned Christ" leading a "Christian Israel and world from Jerusalem." When the Right in Israel aligns itself with the Evangelical Christian movement in the United States it is playing a very dangerous game. But that's what Netanyahu has done for personal political reasons.
G3 September 15, 2012 at 3:22 am #
We need to remember Juan Cole was one of those who supported the intervention. He is in denial about the reactionary forces we armed in the name of supporting rebels. And the angle of revenge attack by Al Qaeda for Obama's drone killing is missing in most accounts.
Here are some accounts :
http://www.atimes.com/atimes/Global_Economy/NI14Dj01.html – Pepe Escobar
http://www.guardian.co.uk/commentisfree/2012/sep/12/libyan-attack-fire-cannot-extinguish – State dept had issued travel advisory for Libya On Aug 27 because of the law and order issues !! (Via :Angry Arab blog)
I had a tough time sifting between fact and fiction on Libya last year because even supposedly "credible" sources like Democracy Now, guardian etc were cheerleading for war to varying degrees. I consider Angry Arab blog as a credible source.
Yesterday, Democracy Now (now war mongering on Libya toned down) interviewed Tariq Ramadan.

Review: Crysis 3 – adapt or die
Who doesn't enjoy being the hunter? It's that indescribable feeling of stalking your prey, planning an attack and striking with precision. Crysis 3 sets you loose in the ruins of New York City and puts you at the top of the food chain. The hunt is on. Suit up, it's time to go Downtown.
Crysis as a series always strives to create the best First-Person Shooter (FPS) experience imaginable. It's almost developer Crytek's philosophy. The first Crysis revolutionised the way we look at shooters by setting up a complex and elaborate style of FPS gameplay. Players could alternate between armour for strength or a cloak for stealth both powered and managed by a replenishing energy meter. Then Crytek tossed in a ridiculous amount of firepower within an open sandbox which offered an unlimited number of ways to approach a situation.
The sequel upped the ante raising the stakes, adding more action, a tighter more linear experience with a larger drive towards story, much to the aggravation of some fans. Whether you like the game or not there is no arguing that at the time it sported some of the prettiest games around and still offered a decent albeit more path-driven experience. Crysis 3 is attempting to give gamers a more rounded offering from both worlds, packed into a jaw droppingly gorgeous package boasting one of the most intuitive control systems around. The question remains, is developer Crytek biting off more than it can chew?
The game begins with the rescue of series' hero Prophet, draped in his form fitting nano-suit which enhances all his abilities. He is being held in a C.E.L.L. (the series' evil paramilitary antagonists) facility inside a giant dome that now covers the ruins of New York. C.E.L.L has convinced the general public that the area is dangerous and hidden its more top secret work inside this vast and secure location under the guise of a power station. Psycho (one of Prophet's former nano-suit buddies) stages your break out, explaining that he now works with a resistance movement trying to free the world from C.E.L.L. and so begins your mission to save the world, again.
Prophet's abilities handle better than ever in Crysis 3. In Crysis 2 you had all these amazing abilities and only what felt like a AA battery to play with them. At no stage did I feel like a super soldier as I spent a lot of time waiting for my energy to recharge hiding behind cover instead of showing off my style.
Crysis 3 however unleashes Prophet's full potential giving you the tools to pick off your enemies as you switch between sneaking and aggression, which has put it miles above it's predecessor. Crysis 3 has simplified most of its suit mechanics down to Stealth and Aggression. Stealth has been enhanced by the introduction of the predator bow, capable of firing while cloaked and offers a selection of interesting alternate ammo types, such as fire or electricity. This is immensely useful for picking off stragglers or patrols before dealing with densely populated enemy zones. You can also creep up on unsuspecting foes for silent takedowns and use the camouflage to hack turrets and mines without risking being seen.
This is only one half of your suit's abilities. Strength instantly increases your accuracy and hardens your armor allowing you to soak up a great deal more damage and dish it out too. Heavy crates fly around like cardboard boxes with a single punch, allowing some wicked group kills as well as distractions if used in conjunction with your cloak. This is where the game shines. Once you are familiar with the skills you have at your disposal the controls become very organic, allowing you to switch your tactics on the fly and adapt to almost any situation. Within no time you'll find yourself able to take down whole squads of C.E.L.L. forces barely even taking a scratch.
One of the few downsides of Crysis 3 is it's use of compartmentalised areas. You never feel it has the sense of scope and openness of the original. I began to feel a sense of deja vu as all of the levels started to feel like variations of the same box, and after several missions of collecting Intel, planning an attack and executing it, it all began to feel like routine. This is far from a gamebreaker, but it does make the single player experience feel more like a string of multiplayer maps stitched together. It feels less so after the halfway mark and does open up and then it's back to cloaking and killing and all that saving the world kind of stuff which the franchise does so well.
Crysis 3 is another win from the team at Crytek but doesn't really take the series to the next level. The dynamic nature of the gameplay takes even the simplest of battles and adds a layer of tactical thinking rarely seen in the FPS genre. Excusing some repetitive levels and a very linear progression, Crysis 3 offers a middle-ground between its two previous titles. The series continues to grow and evolve, but in smaller leaps. More focus is needed on the sandbox elements before Crytek produce the shooter follow up we've all been hoping for since the original Crysis knocked our socks off.

All quotes tagged Holders
(69 quotes found)
"We've had some of our season-ticket holders call this year's schedule 'eclectic' - and I like that."
"There has to be a lot of persuading to get a large number of institutional holders to back their slate. He's relying in part on his reputation to get people to back him; they haven't done much to back him so far."
"We had no shot of making that one. You have 1.26 seconds and (holder) B.J. (Sander) has a clock in his head, as do I, and the snap came back way behind him. He was trying to rush to get it around and when it's that far off, you kind of lose the bearing on where the spot is."
"The holders back from among the believers, not having any injury, and those who strive hard in Allah's way with their property and their persons are not equal; Allah has made the strivers with their property and their persons to excel the holders back a (high) degree, and to each (class) Allah has promised good; and Allah shall grant to the strivers above the holders back a mighty reward: / (High) degrees from Him and protection and mercy, and Allah is Forgiving, Merciful."
"Generally speaking, maybe 25 percent of the tobacco contract holders in our area have taken their buyout in a lump sum. It varies a little by county, but not much."
"In 2004, when the industry faced record catastrophic losses, policy holders' surplus grew by 12.5 percent to $391 billion."

Of course, the second I got there, I started scoping out the boys while trying to control my embarrassment from my Dad. Seriously, Dad. You're getting in the way of me flirting with cute boys wearing Quicksilver and Billabong shirts with their seashell and hemp chokers (also cool back then).
Then, I see these two cute boys with blonde hair. But the one stands out to me (sorry, Steve). Lo and behold, when we have to break off into our groups by residence hall, he is in my group. I tried to keep my eye on him but was way too embarrassed by my dad asking our tour guide how many electrical outlets were in each room, and if there are the same amount of outlets in all the dorm rooms...does it vary from room to room? How close are the outlets to each other? Seriously Dad? I was so irritated that at one point we both were telling each other what an embarrassment the other was. Typical father/daughter, right?
So because of the whole outlet/embarrassment fiasco, I lost the cute blonde boy. Boooo.
Little did I know, though that on the way to orientation that day, his Dad said to him, "hey you might see the girl you are going to marry today." At some point in the day, his Dad pointed me out to him. I was wearing capri pants that day (with platform sandals. Sans glitter though...serious business that day. No time for glitter). Since they didn't know my name, all summer he referred to me as Miss Capri and told his friends that he'd win me over! Right, right, right....
Fast forward to the first day of my freshman year. We do a little thing called the Freshman Walk. You are paired boy/girl and are paraded through town doing random things like humping a tree or proposing to a stranger. Wouldn't you know I got paired with the cute blonde boy from orientation.
From then, we would randomly see each other on the way to class, which then evolved to him meeting me at my door and walking to class with me, which was good. I was hard to get out of bed in the am sometimes. Especially on Friday mornings...Thirsty Thursday's were a big deal and hard to resist!!
Then one night (the night before his biggest soccer game of the season...sorry, Ry. Poor timing I guess!), I got a little too wasted, and drunk dialed him to come hold my hair back while I puked my brains out. He did. It seemed totally logical at the time, I swear.
Stupid me didn't see how awesome he was until right then...plus my friends and I thought it was cool to see what he would do to try and impress me. Sorry Ry. Sorry I drug it out so long, but it was just too much fun. We really didn't think you would actually come to our dorm room with no shirt on just to borrow some bread :)
From that puke filled night on it was pretty much these shenanigan's for the next several years...

Many, La., mom fighting for daughter's life

Viran Patel
Franchisee, Manchester Lakes
"Boardwalk Fries Burgers Shakes is a compelling, upbeat, fun concept that appeals to all generations. It is pure Americana. Boardwalk corporate support keeps it that way. That's why I got involved as a franchisee, and a Development Agent. They have a design company to help you build the store, great menu, and burgers that the most favorable food in most part of the world.
You get to pick up the phone and speak to the Vice President, or to the CEO, at any given time; they hear you, they listen to you, they allow you to make changes necessary to your demographics and they're available to you...they're very active and wanting you to succeed and wanting you to multiply your stores.
The thing I like best about this company is the fact that you are treated, truly, as a partner. They do respect you as a franchisee. It's not like you're working for them. You're working with them, and it works out very nicely.
Boardwalk is not just a meal, it's an experience, bottom line. Smiles are just as important as the product. It's the atmosphere, it's the service. It comes down to the one-on-one smile with each and every customer, as opposed to guest number 27, dropping the food off at the counter, turning around and walking away. It is a significant, completely different experience.
Now with the bar and new menu, you'll see and feel a whole new different experience, not tomention a whole new regenerated concept to make your AUV'S even higher."

Hold on to your hats, hotel snobs. I just joined RediCard, the loyalty program of Red Roof Inns.
The reason: not only are Red Roof Inns pet friendly, but pets stay free.
From time to time, we travel with our cockapoo, Mitzy. We've encountered up-charges at hotels ranging from $20 per night to $75 per stay.
To be honest, I've only stayed at one Red Roof Inn, and it was a new hotel in Garden City, Long Island.
The decor was very modern and the room was comfortable. What I liked best, though, was that the floors in the room were a laminate, and that seemed so much cleaner than a carpeted floor. There was free wifi, but no free breakfast.
Reasonably priced hotels are scarce on Long Island. I got the room via a Priceline bid for a 2 star hotel. I was impressed enough with the place that I reserved directly the next time I was in the area. My second visit occurred after Hurricane Sandy, and the hotel was housing many families and their pets that had been displaced by the storm.
Pets Always Stay Free at Red Roof Inns
The hotel I stayed at in Garden City, NY had interior corridors and was designated a Red Roof Inn Plus property.
Red Roof Plus properties feature: modern decor, flat screen TVs, vessel sinks, wood-like floors, additional electrical outlets, a 100% smoke-free designation, high-end bedding, in-room red accent wall and renovated lobby featuring stone accent wall.
In 2013, USA Today readers voted Red Roof Inn the best budget hotel brand.
All but three of 375 Red Roof Inns accept pets. The exceptions are: Oxon Hill, MD; Flushing, NY; and Queensboro Long Island City, NY.
Red Roof Inn's Pet Policy
Here is the Red Roof Inn Pet Policy:
- One well-behaved family pet is permitted unless prohibited by state law or ordinance
- Service animals are always welcome
- Pet must be declared during guest registration
- Please keep your animal on a leash when outside your room
- In consideration of all Red Roof guests, pets must never be left unattended in the guestroom
- When you walk your pet on property, please be considerate and clean up after your pet
Check out their pet Facebook page for special deals.
RediCard — The Loyalty Program of Red Roof Inns
The benefits of the RediCard, the Red Roof Inn loyalty program are that you earn 10x points per stay, and a free night with 6,000 points. At that rate, it would take between six and ten paid stays to earn a free night.
You also get free bottled water in your room each day, and a discount of up to 20 percent off the best available rate when you book ten days in advance.
I hear that Red Roof Inn is coming out with a co-branded credit card in 2015. Any takers?

Bottlerock Napa just announced. The good news is Macklemore won't be at Coachella - http://www.bottlerocknapavalley.com/
The Jesus & Mary Chain have announced dates in Europe during Coachella.
Shovels & Rope just announced a spring tour that skips California and ends April 8th. That's a good sign, no?
Metallica were just announced for Rock On The Range in May. Isn't it usually part of the deal that GV announces the headliners first before the other festivals? Does this make them less likely?
Appears Nick Cave is out - http://www.nickcave.com/live/
Curve aren't touring again- https://www.facebook.com/permalink.php?story_fbid=1093279917387065&id=157177444330655
Probably could have been phrased better. I guess they aren't by traditional definitions. Although I believe Ace Of Spades does get played on our local classic rock station.
Just announced a US tour - http://loudwire.com/slayer-2016-north-american-tour-testament-carcass/, only CA show is in San Francisco at a Goldenvoice venue. The tour completes late March.
Because they will be on tour in Europe at the time - http://www.theprodigy.com/live/
If the fact they aren't on the poster wasn't enough to rule out The Prodigy playing these dates were posted on their Facebook page over the weekend:
Friday 10th April 2015
Heineken Music Hall,...
On The Dandy Warhols Twitter - https://twitter.com/thedandywarhols/status/551098142259945472
Volbeat's tour in the US starts the weekend after Coachella in Denver with no California dates - http://www.volbeat.dk/3/dates/
What about Volbeat for one of the few heavy acts this year?
Due for a new album (although nothing announced) Their NA tour starts the weekend after Coachella in Denver. LA is the only major...
Slightly out of genre and unlikely but a Pantera reunion isn't completely out of the question - http://loudwire.com/philip-anselmo-possible-pantera-reunion-performs-with-zakk-wylde-rex-brown/.
New album and UK/European tour that ends in December - http://ultimateclassicrock.com/motorhead-aftershock-art-track-listing-fall-tour/
Apparently they cancelled their Riot Fest September...
Sleigh Bells have a new album soon and their current tour finishes on the east coast late November.
Jourgensen said there's no Ministry without Mike Scaccia but who knows.
But Ministry on the polo fields would be great!
The Sex Pistols have done several tours with original bassist Glen Matlock. Pretty good shows actually. Not sure if Coachella would be interested at this point though since their reunion has been...
He's great!
Wish Coachella had a comedy stage for these types of acts.
"Corporatechella" is an edgy and original thing to call the festival. This OP probably also spells it "Micro$oft".
Extremely unlikely but he said he'll be playing lots of shows this year.
It would be really fun to hear his horrific songs on the polo fields.
Ned's Atomic Dustbin
Inspiral Carpets
The Dead Milkmen
The Jam
What about The Jam? Could they headline, or has the window for people caring about their reunion passed?
(Not saying they should or shouldn't either way)
Closing the outdoor stage on Friday 2014:
It's not the seller. It's because the item is being shipped to Canada.
Our government takes 45% of everything from us.
(i knew that was a bomb when I typed it but did anyway).
Baauer playing Gangdam Style in to Harlem Shake
Those were all singles. There's a good chance, no?
The set apparently is 1/3- 1/2 DK songs. Rarely "Moon Over Marin" though. Boo.
If they are wearing the robes a picture is essential!!!
They will likely have Lindsay Lohan as the replacement since it is confirmed she will be there - http://blog.zap2it.com/pop2it/2013/03/lindsay-lohan-says-no-rehab-until-coachella-party-is-over.html
Great thread idea!
Wild Belle (Their album is only $7.99 on iTunes)
The Evens
Is the video accessible again? I wanted to see what I need to do to make the world renowned festival that I paid over a grand to attend better.
I hope he decorates the porta potty the same way R Budd Dwyer decorated the curtains.
Also, this beating was the best thing on the internet in ages.
Nice!!! Hopefully the crowd appreciate it as much as the blur fans. Can't wait!
(bit of a spoiler though :))
I was thinking there must be a British actor in LA who would do the Phil Daniels part with them, but if the song wasn't big anywhere in the US they might skip it.
Hope they do it though, last time...

Poll: Americans want states (not feds) to decide whether to legalize pot
About 63 percent of Americans don't think the federal government should contest states' decision to legalize marijuana, according to a Gallup poll released Friday.
The results came one day after Washington officially made marijuana legal. Colorado is expected to follow suit in the next month or so.
"These polls are making it quite clear that most Americans do not want the federal government to stand in the way after a state's voters have approved a ballot measure to make marijuana legal for adults," said Steve Fox, Marijuana Policy Project director of government relations, in a statement.…

Also, it might be a problem that usual XML validaters cannot detect SMIL-specific syntax errors. For example, while <switch> in <head> can contain only <layout>'s, the SMIL DTD dose not express this constraint. Then, a SMIL-unaware parser fail to detect that type of violation. This problem concern what is a valid SMIL document, or what is a syntax checking in SMIL. If a good XML Schema is achieved, a precisely defined XML validity will be equivalent to the SMIL validity; ... I expect so.

Favorite Figure Skater of All Time
The Contenders: Page 3
Great character and perfect jump technique.
Great skater from Russia. I Love. Speed, power, rotation, jumping, inspiration. Character! Fighter.
The best Russian figure skater!V 3 Comments
He's a moving portrait on ice. Everything about his skating... Especially his choreography, deep edges, spins, heartfelt expressions, are magical. He becomes the music.
He has the best edges and feel for movement of skaters out there right now. He is beyond his years on the ice, and also a major throwback to the classic days. Extreme musicality. Very classy guy on and off the ice and a sweetie to boot.
So beautiful skating and Classy
His performances always move meV 4 Comments
Her jumps are so skilled everything looks like it has been calculated and just wow I'm a skater and I can't wait to be able to do that stuff
She is amazing! Everything she does is through her heart. She tries hard and success into life. She made history! I love her, and shes my hero! She deserves to have good fortune in life..!
3 time Olympic champion
Irina Rodnina simbol figure skating. His legend!
3 time Olympic Champion! This is simply amarzing!
The most underestimated skater. I love her a lot, she is just wonderful on and off the ice, always so decent, so true and so honest, in emotions, in interviews, in life, in skating.
The best ever! I will never forget the first time you and Maxim became World Champions back in 2007, the first time I truly felt proud to be Bulgarian!
One who overcomes the resistance of the system must be appreciated :) Moreover there haven't been any better couple than albena and max on the ice... ever!
The ice queenV 22 Comments
Brian Orser has gone beyond skating as an athlete - he continues to lead the younger generation and now has 3 promising young skaters under his wing. He's probably the best coach of all time, if not the best skater.
my hero - so awesome!
see his Story of my life
Brian was great skater, and he is great coach now. He lead Yuna and Yuzuru to Gold medal!
Canadian Excellence.
She is the best athlete, the best partner, the best woman and the best person. I love her
Simply the best female pair skater of all times.
Absolutely biggest loving Tatiana Firebird! One of the best skater in pairs in RUS&WC&OGW ever! We miss and can't waiting for next seasons... With great love you my firebird.
A pretty woman!V 6 Comments
Love his flowing on ice! So charming!

Han and Yuzuru suffered from the accident and they overcame the difficulties. They are wonderful. I think not only Yuzuru, but also him should be praised.
I love his performance.
Deep edge skating, funny dance, big 3A and cute smile&
He is nice athlete and nice artist.

Beautiful and elegant skatingV 9 Comments
He is the best of the best on ICE with Albena... Good luck.
Really beautiful expressive skater
Hi is the best! Good luck Maxim!
The best ever!V 5 Comments
She was so ahead of her time, excelled at many careers, just overwhelming to read about her life and athletic abilities... Oh, the hula in short ice skating costume! She was just... WOW
She was beyond her times. A legend!
None of these skaters come close to the fabulous most glamorous Ms. Henie. She'd tear these mousy girls apart. Sonja was woman enough to excel in everything she touched. She was engaged to Tyrone Power & dated many handsome men & box office actors. Sonja Henie was greatly admired by royalty, world dignitaries & even dictators. How's that for power & impact! Unlike these drab creatures Henie was a massive supernova of a star before superstar & global were even concepts. Sonja was also an innovative pioneer. But the woman was just too much fabulous for anyone to handle. Today's skaters are flops compared to her. Did I mention she was the richest too? Sonja Henie is the greatest for my money and its not even close.
She can be the best female figure skater in the figure)
I really like her an intelligent and powerful, The Royal -stylish skating. She looks better on ice than Carolina Kostner in a career! Anna have a a special chic on Ice,that will never get another skater from Japan or America! Wagner gave the home silver at the World Championships. Anna is much better than mediocre American!
She will be a Queen on Ice!
Oh, Anna! Your new program is to be top of the craftsmanship and the perfect combination of jumps, lyrical dance and fascinating skating! You are the best in Russia.V 2 Comments
Facial expressions only.
Her new samba-themed short program is looking good! Can't wait to see her do well this season!
Absolutely love Ashley! One of the best ladies in US figure skating right now and by far one of the sassiest!
I love her, cause she is gorgeous, plastic and very funny! She have very good taste in music and don't do math.V 1 Comment
Elena and Anton! The pair worked wonders on ice.V 1 Comment
She is cool beauty
She is very professional amazing skater!
I love his beautiful skating!
Shizuka sama is born for ice,she is so beautiful and confident on the ice.Like a spirit!
GO Mirai! I love your skating and smile
The artist on the glass
The Legend itself
This kid looks like a little girl :) It can not be called male skating, because it be a shame to the Japanese team
Can you change gender as a Kanchita Sausage?
I really love his skate...I was so impressed with his program hi had done so far...amazing skills and expression

I've just received a wooly board that I ordered from Camilla Valley Farm. It arrives with assembly required and at the time I opened the package I was too sleep deprived to handle it. Maybe today the old squash will be sharp enough for the challenge. Can't wait to have my WIP become a FO and deck the board with a hand-knit sweater. By the way, I am almost finished with the body and will soon be binding off the steeks, putting the shoulders on dpns and the back neck on a holder. Then my plan is to cut the steeks(!!!!!!), three-needle bind off the shoulders, knit up the neck band and pick up and knit the sleeves. Does this sound like the right way to go? Remember, this is my first steek project and I am knitting from the seat of my pants. Advice welcomed.

Personally, I wouldn't even worry about sewing the steek, but I like living on the edge.
Do you mind sharing how much the wooly board cost? Halcyon yarn also carries them, so I've thought that when I finally get around to ordering one (likely this spring), I'd order from them. Or just drive up to Bath. If there are significantly cheaper options, though, it'd be good to know.
