Trains stopped running on the High Line in 1980, but it turns out the party was far from over. We direct you to the amazing Art of Noise video for the 1984 single "Close (To the Edit)."
In what is an eerily near-perfect re-telling of my own coming-to-New York story, Pat Benatar's Love Is A Battlefield video tells the story of a runaway from small-town America, who, against all odds, fights her way through the grime-ridden dive bars of New York's oily, leather-clad underbelly, to end up dancing in the streets (where else?) under the High Line!

Comments about Baudville Framed Medallion - You Make the Difference:
We have been ordering the Framed Medallion for many years for our annual employee recognition ceremony. We have always enjoyed the fact that it came in a while presentation box. This way all we had to do was put our color ribbon around the box and top with a sticker of our logo. This last order came in a red box with your logo all over it top and bottom. Now we have to wrap all 23 boxes. Could you please consider at least making the box top plain white with your logo on the bottom. This would be greatly appreciated. We spend much prep time on this event and adding one more step really takes our time. - thank you so much!

Hogan Lovells advises Schroders on Suffolk Care Home Forward fundings
Hogan Lovells advised the Schroder UK Property Fund on the development and leasing of five care homes in Suffolk. The deal was signed on 20 December 2012.
Schroders will acquire freehold sites in Framlingham, Haverhill, Mildenhall, Lowestoft and Ipswich from Care UK, who will then redevelop them (with funding from Schroders) as residential care homes and take a 30-year lease to occupy and operate them.
These homes, some of which are existing operational homes that will be redeveloped, while others are former school sites, will be used by Care UK to support the contract it entered into with Suffolk County Council in November 2012 to outsource the Council's elderly care provision.
Hogan Lovells advised Schroders on all elements of the deal, including a contractual and security package designed to offer as much protection as possible against a Southern Cross-style insolvency.
The Hogan Lovells' team comprised Dion Panambalana, Simon Keen and Daniel Norris, with support from Gillian Thomas, Andrew Welbourn, Cheryl Enayati and James Larmour.

Featured Story
China Changing the Global Gold Market
- By Larry D. Spears, Contributing Writer, Money Morning - November 22, 2011While many investors have been distracted by the goings on in Europe, China has been making a dent in the global gold market by making it easier for investors to buy and invest in the yellow metal.
The goal: To dominate the global gold market and carve out a new role for its currency, the yuan.
China and other developing nations like India have been encouraging citizens to buy and hold physical gold, in forms ranging from jewelry and coins to bullion bars. China's aggressive promotion has pushed Chinese consumer demand for gold up 25% overall this year - much higher than the 7% global average.
World Gold Council (WGC) Far East Managing Director Albert Cheng, who predicted in March 2010 that Chinese gold demand would double by 2020, noted: "We now believe this doubling may, in fact, be achieved far sooner."
China is pushing gold because it wants the government and citizens to build financial reserves in assets stronger than the U.S. dollar, euro, and other weakening currencies. It also increases China's role in the precious metals market.
But there's another effect of this push for gold ownership: it's dislodging the dollar as the world's main reserve currency.
China's Gold Push EffortsChina's push for private gold ownership represents a major policy shift.
Chinese citizens were barred from owning physical gold under penalty of imprisonment until 2002. Since that policy was dropped and the Shanghai Gold Exchange opened, China has steadily stepped up efforts to encourage precious metal ownership.
The government now airs news programs on state-owned China Central Television describing how easy it is to buy and sell gold and silver. It also started its first gold vending machine, letting Chinese customers easily buy gold coins and bars using cash, debit cards and credit cards.
Current plans call for an additional 2,000 gold vending machines to come on line in the next two years. If they prove as successful as they did in Germany, where metals vending machines were first introduced, China's consumer gold demand will surge.
Chinese consumers turned off by the vending machines' high price mark-ups have another option - official government-operated "Mint Stores." Structured like a typical jewelry store, they feature specially minted bars in a variety of sizes. Mark-ups are minimal since each store has a Bloomberg screen tracking the current spot gold price, usually quoted in renminbi based on Shanghai trading, rather than in dollars on the London or New York market.
China also has encouraged more gold investment through new exchanges and yuan-denominated products.
The country on June 28 opened its first precious metals spot exchange. The South Rare Precious Metals Spot Exchange offers spot trading - as well as deferred and long-term electronic trades - in gold, silver, bismuth, indium and tellurium, with plans to add 13 other metal-related products. Chinese citizens can trade the metals through either direct margin accounts with the exchange, or through their banks and brokerage firms.
These efforts have increased Chinese consumers' gold interest, but it's the next development that will make China a major global player in gold trading.

Outlook 2011: Fear and Love in Gold Trading
Wall Street has been calling gold a bubble since 2005, when it hit $500. Some media naysayers remained negative even as they wrote the headlines proclaiming record highs and saw gold rise almost 30% in the past 12 months.
Interestingly, despite gold's latest run, it was still a laggard compared to many other commodities. In the commodity world, gold didn't even place in the top half in 2010. Against a basket of 14 commodities that includes everything from aluminum to wheat, gold's 29.52% return places it eighth. Palladium took the top spot with a 96.6% return, followed by silver with an 83.21% return. Natural gas continued its cellar-dwelling ways, dropping 21.28% to become the worst-performing commodity of the basket.
There are two main drivers of gold demand: The Fear Trade and the Love Trade.

Miley's Lil Sis Too Racy on the Red Carpet?
Noah Cyrus, little sis of Miley, might be following her sister's lead when it comes to skimpy outfits and provocative poses. At a Hollywood event promoting Juicy Couture bathing suits, the star of the "Noie & Em Show" traipsed down the red carpet wearing barely-there bathing suits. Did we mention she's NINE YEARS OLD?
See Also:
This is insane. I'm a huge fan of Miley and I'm not mad at her, because it's not her fault. However I'm mad at Tish Cyrus for letting Noah wear this, and Noah for wearing this! Miley saysshe doesnt want to be a bad role model for her younger sister and fans, but Miley better watch out. I looove Miley though and cant wait for her new tour!!!!!!
Little girls playing. Really lame article. Tsk,tsk,tsk.
that emily nine year old is wearing makeup, high heals and a bathing suit. the next paris hilton and nicole for sure.
come on, it's just bathing suits and not so little girls playing dress up. the suits are one piece with a kind of skirt, and they both have beach jackets on. i don't see the cause for criticism here. just seems like more miley bashing. bash someone that deserves it, like, oh i don't know, try, all american rejects or the whole concept of american idol for being so dang mediocre.
This is so lame. I'm 64 years old, and have a granddaughter younger than Noah. Little girls like to play dress-up, and anyone who considers those suits out of order had better never go to a beach or public pool here in Florida. If they went to the beach in Brazil, they'd likely have a heart attack.
What's really disgusting are the media who make a big deal of this sort of thing. Anything to get hits, eh guys?
Um i don't see what's wrong with the bathing suit…it is a event promoting juicy couture bathing suits so there wearing bathing suits. This are a lot more covered up than most suits i saw will summer shopping with my daughter. The pose is a little to old for her, but i don't see anything else wrong here!
Much Ado about Nothin'!
Two girls in yes, questionable poses, but not ones that any other girl her age might be in, wearing a ONE piece swimsuit and sandals! SANDALS people, not high heels. Maybe too much make up, but she is gonna be photographed for magazines and websites such as this…
They were going to a 50's themed birthday party and are wearing 50's style one piece swimsuits and a little makeup. There is a video if anyone would bother to look for it on the web, you would see there is nothing wrong with them or their outfits.
Some people need to get a life and worry about thier own lives and their own kids and stop believing everything you see or read on the web and Gossip sites.
Give us all a break will ya?!?! The girls are wearing one piece, 50's style bathing suites they're not even in bikinies!!!!! Is the reason you are taking aim against these little girls because their dad isn't a liberal like you? It's obvious that the people who run this site are all extremely liberal but taking out aim against two little kids because their dad has political views that you don't agree with is not only shameful but also anti-American!!!! YOU SHOULD BE ASHAMED of yourselves!!
Ummm…it's a bathing suit…not even a bikini bathing suit, which, yes, bikinis are out there for kids 9 and younger…what is the big deal???
It's a "barely there" bathing suit? Uh, I don't think so. They are completely covered up! And what is provacotive about their poses? If they were going to a 50s themed bathing suit party then shame on you MomLogic for taking the picture way out of context!!!!!!
I'm not understanding I think…they were at a Swimsuit company event, wearing SWIMSUITS, one piece at that, with sweaters as cover-ups. What's the matter with that? It's not like they're wearing stripper shoes.
When did we become a completely puritan society?
Well, I guess it's all about who ya know (or who you're related to). Just two little girls playing dress up…that happens millions of times per day across the country, and we don't see all those pics publicized. Truly sad.
waist of space article
This is another article where MomLogic doesn't include all the facts. These little girls were going to a pool party for the birthday of a 19-year-old. There are other pictures of these girls from the event, and in one shot you can see how much eyeliner Noah is wearing, and in another shot she's chugging a Red Bull. That's what disturbs me. Wearing a swimsuit to a pool party is no big deal. But why were they going to a teenager's pool party in the first place?
OVER MY DEAD BODY! My little girl wouldn't be caught in that outfit. Granted they are swim suits… nonetheless.
I'd like to know what kind of swimsuits the children of these angry commenters wear…. I've seen kids younger than this in two pieces at local pools. It's a fully covered one piece- does your kid wear jeans into the pool?
what an ugly kid!
the article said she was at an event for Juicy Coture bathingsuits. So she wore a bathing suit down the red carpet. Big deal. If it was a movie premier that's one thing, but considering the type of event, it seems appropriate to me.

My drum teacher loaned me one of these (he has 2) since i was having trouble with my double bass skills, and i couldn't practice much because of the noise and neighbors.

superb on home made pizza
Sprinkle some of this on a homemade pizza for restaurant quality with minimal effort.

we use instead of dried herbs now!
I add this to a tin of tomatoes for the quickest easiest pasta sauce ever. Also great on fried mushrooms, stirred into rice, sprinkled on pizza toasts... really versatile. I would say that if you like garlic you will still need to add more to pasta sauce as it's not garlicky.

A staple must in every freezer
I was a little apprehensive in purchasing these herbs because of the price but I must say on their current special 2 for offer they are excellent value for money. The Italian mix has a great balance of herbs, garlic and re onion and I agree with other reviewers that the herbs are as good as fresh. A great staple to keep in your freezer.

Excellent and Very Convenient
All of the frozen Cooks Ingredients are fabulous, so quick and easy to use and cuts out the waste that always happens when you buy ingredients, use a bit, and forget about the rest sitting in the fridge. The Italian Mix is great for all pasta dishes, but my favourite for a low fat almost instant meal is a spray of oil in a frying pan, some Italian mix, then pour on some egg whites out of a carton with a grating of parmesan and serve it with a salad. So tasty and low fat and it only takes a couple of minutes.

better than the pre made sauces
I buy this because I can add to chopped tomatoes to make a sauce. Many tomato sauces have sugar in them which I don't want. Would have been 5 stars if organic.

Strapless Ball Gown with Lace Corset Bodice Style WG3633 11 11
In love with my dress After trying on several ball gowns this was THE ONE!!It's not heavy compared to all the other ball gowns I tried on that had a tulle skirt. It's so romantic and has a very ethereal look to it. If you want to add a little more to it I would suggest using a sash. Other than that, it's a very beautiful gown that isn't over the top. The price is also very reasonable! I can't wait til I can wear my dress again!!! I've never felt more beautiful in a dress!(Dress is a little big in pics,didn't have my size) August 4, 2014
Perfect dress for the perfect day! I absolutely adored my wedding dress. It was classy and fit relatively well, just make sure you tighten as you lace as we forgot and it slipped off a tad during a dance. Oops! Other than that the dress was definitely the most beautiful one I have ever seen and it made me feel like a princess. I loved the high cut and lace top, and the bottom looked fantastic in photos. It was elegant, yet fun. Thank you for the perfect dress! July 21, 2014
STUNNING I never in a million years thought I would end up with a ball gown, but this dress is amazing and not super poofy like some other ball gown dresses. I tried on several fit and flare dresses which were beautiful, but I didn't feel like a bride until I tried this dress on. It is light and flowey and very comfortable which will be perfect for my destination wedding. I added a sparkly belt and I will be wearing a bird cage veil. The corset top is awesome and makes me feel like I have a super tiny waist. I definitely recommend this dress! April 27, 2014
AMAZING I was sure I had found my dress after the first one I tried. I put three more on and nothing compared until this one. As soon as I put it on I knew and didn't take it off until the end of the appointment. It is beautiful light and fits perfectly. The sash adds the perfect touch. I can not wait to where it on my wedding day! I am getting married in december and I think it will make a perfect winter wedding dress. April 24, 2014

Props reader to Marshal Cheek for a pretty cool draft board/scouting report.
This draft board doesn't exactly have all of the best players, it just has all of the players that I think would fit the Chiefs system on both offense and defense. Some players that might fit the Chiefs but that aren't good enough in my opinion, have been left off. Also, players of positions that we don't need to draft, have been left off of this list. The scouting reports are a shortened version of CBS's scouting reports. Also, some positions, (like WR) don't list the top players. For example, since I don't think we should draft a WR in the 1st round, I didn't list any 1st round WRs.
-Stats are most recent season, except Myron Rolle

Articles from Britannica encyclopedias for elementary and high school students.
- New Deal - Children's Encyclopedia (Ages 8-11)
The New Deal was a group of U.S. government programs of the 1930s. President Franklin D. Roosevelt started the programs to help the country recover from the economic problems of the Great Depression.
- New Deal - Student Encyclopedia (Ages 11 and up)
When Franklin D. Roosevelt assumed the presidency of the United States in 1933, the nation's economy was in a state of turmoil. Following the stock market crash of 1929 that signaled the onset of the Great Depression, the Dow Jones Industrial Average went on to lose an additional 80 percent of its value through the early 1930s. Industrial production slowed to about half its pre-depression level, agricultural and other commodity prices tumbled to half of their previous value, and unemployment soared to 25 percent. Roosevelt responded to the nation's state of panic by immediately putting into action an aggressive recovery agenda known as the New Deal.

Eugene, Ore. • Big losses had happened before, but never like this.
The Utes fell behind Oregon so quickly and thoroughly in their 94-48 loss Saturday that by the time they scored their second basket they already trailed 34-2.
|Join the Discussion
|Post a Comment
It was the worst loss in Utah history, eclipsing a 44-point loss to Denver AC in 1934.
Jason Washburn led the Utes (6-24, 3-15) with a career-high 26 points, but the Utes only impacted the day's storyline in that they were the team that happened to play Oregon.
The Ducks (22-8, 13-15) were nearly flawless in the first half, and guards Devoe Joseph and Carlos Emory actually were. The two combined to shoot 10-of-10 from the floor, including 4-of-4 on 3-pointers, in the first half, helping the Ducks to a 52-14 halftime lead.
The Ducks finished 15-of-33 on 3-pointers, while Joseph finished with 21 points and Emory added 19.

What is the first book in the Bible?
* = Required Fields
NASHVILLE (BP) -- "Sickened." "Horrific news." "Groaning." Rachel uncomforted, "weeping for her children." These thoughts were expressed by Southern Baptists on social media following the senseless Dec. 14 slaughter of 20 children and six adults at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Conn.
Many leaders and commentators wrote thought-provoking articles and editorials to comfort and lead the nation at this trying time, a season reserved to honor our Savior's birth. Take time this holiday season to reflect on the Lord's goodness in times of tragedy, reviewing the comments made in response to the Newtown tragedy.
-- Begin with Baptist Press'
of tweets, such as that by North American Mission Board church planter Terry Dorsett that the many prayer meetings held prove "that deep down inside, our nation still believes."
-- Attorney Shannon Royce, president of the nonprofit ChosenFamilies.org for families living with hidden disabilities, challenges us to begin a serious discussion of the realities of mental illness. In her
First Person column
, she writes, "We need to understand better what happens when a mental health challenge and evil meet, what happens when disability mingles with sin. We see the devastating results. We need to consider what we can do to prevent them from occurring."
-- Southern Baptist Theological Seminary President
R. Albert Mohler
thoroughly examines the heinous crime, quoting Jeremiah 31:15: "Thus says the LORD: 'A voice is heard in Ramah, lamentation and bitter weeping. Rachel is weeping for her children; she refuses to be comforted for her children, because they are no more."
-- Why didn't God prevent the tragedy?
Jerry Sutton
, Midwestern Baptist Theological Seminary's vice president for academic development, considers the age-old question of why God allows such evil to manifest. "In this present age, we live in a world in revolt against God who, in His patience, is permitting the revolt all the while holding out His hands and beckoning humanity to return to Him," Sutton writes.
-- How do we move forward, and who do we blame? Trevin Wax, managing editor of LifeWay Christian Resources' The Gospel Project, encourages us to
look within ourselves
. "We cannot point fingers. We all share in the guilt of allowing ourselves to be desensitized to violent behavior. We need the transformation of the Gospel to reach into this tender area and change our hearts," Wax writes.
-- Arkansas Pastor
Ronnie Floyd
, author of "Our Last Great Hope," reminds the church of its calling to weep with those who weep, and of its power to comfort God's people. "While we weep, we need to rise up in God's power, knowing the Lord alone is our strength. As our own tears flow, we need to pray for those who are most deeply grieved and for those who lead us in our great nation called America. As hearts are softened and tears flow, optimism is rising within me again that, as Americans, our greatest days are ahead of us."
-- Jim Veneman, Union University director of visual communication and assistant professor, takes a
fresh perspective
of the event, looking through the eyes of a photographer. Photographs, Veneman said, can make us more aware of reality by capturing a moment in time. "Although our nation has been hurt deeply, in this season we also have reason to celebrate. We celebrate the birth of our Savior, Jesus Christ. We can push back the darkness that engulfs us and experience a God-given moment if we choose to see it. A photograph of such a moment can be a reminder of hope and can help lead us forward."
-- Mark Coppenger, a professor of Christian apologetics at Southern Baptist Theological Seminary and director of its Nashville extension center,
whether the U.S. can fix the problem of gun violence, on school grounds and elsewhere. "Perhaps the Lord will send an antiseptic-like awakening to our land, and we'll enjoy a season of decline in slaughter -- on the school grounds, in the streets, at the clinics, in the homes and on the roads. Perhaps more will simply come to their natural Romans 1 and 2 senses," Coppenger writes. "Either way, the comprehensive fix won't arrive till Jesus returns."
-- Russell D. Moore, dean of Southern seminary's school of theology, discusses the evil of the massacre. "Satan is, Jesus tells us, a 'murderer from the beginning,' because he hates life itself,"
Moore writes
. "And he hates the life of children, particularly, because they picture something true about Jesus of Nazareth."
Moore cautions America not to pretend to understand iniquity nor to offer pat, easy answers to the grieving parents. Rather, he writes, "The mystery of evil is a declaration of war on the peace of God's creation. The war goes on, but not for long.
"And sometimes the most warlike thing we can say, in an inhuman murderous age like this one, is 'It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas.'"

Knowing how to deal with the stress of the job is something all first responders have to consider.
Now, there are even more resources for them to do that.
"There's really no time to prepare yourself for what you're about to see," German Township Fire Chief David Bretz said.
Over his decades long firefighting career, Chief David Bretz has seen a lot.
"There are runs over the years that I can still see in my head as clear as the day that they happened and some of them are 20 and 25 years old. There's no doubt that you take that home with you. It has an effect on you," Chief Bretz told 14 News.
In all those years, Chief Bretz says he's never sought out help from a mental health professional. But, if he faced a difficult situation again now, he might.
Especially knowing there are new resources available.
"I think it'll be really good for some of them to go have people to talk to that know how to help you sort it out," Chief Bretz said.
Over at the Mulberry Center in Downtown Evansville, Ralph Nichols knows how important that is. He's met with police officers, firefighters, and other first responders in the wake of tragedy.
"Some of it is validating what they feel and letting them know that despite the tragedies that they experience, life goes on and that they need to move on as well," Nichols said.
To Nichols, moving on often comes more easily with some assistance.
So with a $20,000 grant from the Welborn Baptist Foundation, he'll now be able to use more resources and time to help offering counseling and education.
It's up to first responders to take advantage of the services, if and when they're needed.
This program is free to Vanderburgh County first responders. Just call the Mulberry Center if you'd like to access services.
If a family member of a first responder needs to talk to someone, that can be arranged, too.

Learn More About Working at CBO and the Agency's Career Opportunities
November 15, 2011
The Economic Outlook
CBO expects that, in 2012 under current law,
- The unemployment rate will remain close to 9 percent and
- GDP growth will be about 2½ percent, with the level of GDP remaining well below its potential.
Fiscal Policy Options for Increasing Economic Growth and Employment in 2012 and 2013
One criterion for evaluating fiscal policy options is the impact on the economy per dollar of budgetary cost. Based on that measure of cost-effectiveness:
Higher-impact policies
- Reduce the incremental cost to businesses of adding employees or
- Are targeted toward people who would be most likely to spend additional income.
Lower-impact policies
- Primarily affect businesses' cash flow but have little impact on their incentives to hire or invest.
Reductions in taxes and increases in government spending would produce short-term economic benefits—but without offsetting actions to reverse the accumulation of government debt, future output and future incomes would tend to be lower than they otherwise would have been.
If policymakers wanted to boost the economy in the near term while seeking to achieve long-term fiscal sustainability, a combination of policies would be required: changes in taxes and spending that would widen the deficit now but reduce it later in the decade.
Other Types of Policy Options for Increasing Economic Growth and Employment in 2012 and 2013
CBO examined an illustrative set of potential changes in regulatory policies and other kinds of legislative actions (other than changes in fiscal policy) related to energy and the environment, the financial and health care sectors, and international trade.
CBO concludes:
- Some changes in policies that CBO considered would probably raise output and employment during the next few years; other changes would probably lower output and employment.
- The economic effects of those specific changes would probably be too small or would occur too slowly to significantly affect overall output or employment in the next two years.

Should evacuees be reimbursed?
Your homeowners insurance may not reimburse you for expenses if you're ordered to evacuate. Should the government pay you back?
This question touched a nerve after Hurricane Gustav and it's timely once again: Should people be reimbursed for the cost if they're forced to evacuate?
Blogger "JLP" posed it to readers of AllFinancialMatters in September 2008 after seeing a TV news report in which most people responded in the affirmative when asked if the government should reimburse people who had to flee. Then he offered his own view:
We already have a system in place to help those who can't afford to evacuate so I hardly see the need to reimburse everyone else. If you don't like evacuating, then I'd suggest moving away from the coast.
Another reader said the idea was akin to expecting the government to reimburse you for the cost of keeping your sidewalks clear after a snowstorm. But reader Terry said it wasn't cut and dried:
If an evacuation is voluntary, government shouldn't pay for it. But if evacuation is mandatory, there is a case for reimbursement.
But hold on, you might think, isn't that what my homeowners policy is for? Won't it cover my expenses if I'm subject to a mandatory evacuation order?
As in most matters involving home insurance and disasters, it's complex and involves several factors:
- What type of disaster strikes.
- Where you live.
- Whether the evacuation was mandatory or not.
- What's included in your policy, including "additional living expenses" or "loss of use" coverage. (Note: If your home is actually rendered uninhabitable by the disaster, other rules apply.)
For instance, we found several states where reimbursement by the insurance company for evacuation expenses is common if you're required to flee in case of wildfire -- including California, Kathy Kristof says. Post continues after video.
Arizona appears to be another one. "Under a typical homeowners policy, if the civil authorities ask you to evacuate, you are covered," Wes Thew with Flagstaff Insurance told azdailysun.com after wildfires drove northern Arizona folks from their homes. "It is a very common type of coverage. A vast majority of the policies, if not all, has this type of coverage."
But that doesn't mean your disaster evacuation will be covered too. The Florida Insurance Guaranty Association says:
Consult your policy for this coverage. Generally, voluntary evacuation expenses will not be covered by your insurance policy, and only under certain conditions will mandatory evacuation expenses be covered.
And this, from the Texas Department of Insurance website:
It depends on your particular policy. Some policies may provide coverage if a civil authority prohibits you from use of the residence premises as a result of direct damage to a neighboring premises caused by a covered peril. (Emphasis added.) This coverage is generally limited for a period of up to two weeks. You should contact your agent or company regarding your specific policy.
Also, The Galveston County Daily News said the Texas Windstorm Insurance Association decided last year not to reimburse folks who were forced to flee the coast because of an approaching hurricane. It added that "very few private insurers pay for evacuation expenses because the industry would pay tens of millions of dollars to policyholders whether hurricanes caused damage or not."
What about flooding? Regular homeowners insurance doesn't apply here and neither does flood insurance, according to the federal flood insurance website.
Will the Federal Emergency Management Agency help out with evacuation costs? It may reimburse evacuees in limited circumstances. But this report in The Times-Picayune of New Orleans observes that evacuees without means can use emergency public transport and shelter. (FEMA does reimburse state and local governments for some of those costs.)
There is a circumstance where the federal government will cover your evacuation costs -- if you live within range of a nuclear accident. Federal law limits the liability of the nuclear power industry to the first $12.6 billion in damages in such an event, CNNMoney reports. After that, the taxpayers pick up the tab.
The act that created the cap, known as Price-Anderson, said that federal and state governments will step in and cover "bodily injury, sickness, disease or resulting death, property damage and loss as well as reasonable living expenses for individuals evacuated" in the event of a disaster, according to the NRC's Web site. Because the losses are covered by the government, homeowner insurance policies won't cover any of the damages.
If authorities forced you to evacuate as Hurricane Irene bore down on the East Coast, what should you do? Keep all receipts and contact your insurance company. Everyone else, check your homeowners policy now. And add this to your list of reasons why you should have an emergency fund.
One other point to keep in mind: If your insurance covers your expenses during a mandated evacuation, it's not a blank check to live high on the hog. If you're covered, your policy has limits on how much you'll be reimbursed.
Now back to the original question: Should the government reimburse all who are required to flee a natural disaster?
More on MSN Money:
I love the way these questions are phrased: Should the government reimburse you? What it should say is, Should taxpayers reimburse you? There's this odd assumption that govt money is somehow different, that it magically appears and is dispensed to various people under the law. It's our money and always has been.
So, to ask this question properly, Should the rest of us pay when people are forced to evacuate?
Government reimbursement? Really? When will this nonsense end? You are responsible for your own bills and life. I am still waiting for my mortgage bailout since I paid my mortgage on time and was smart enough to not over extend myself? The sooner this country gets back to personal responsibility, the better off we all will be. Enough of this that people think the rest of us or the government owes them anything. This is why the debt is so high. Because people expect the government to bail them out.
Did you see the man yelling out. "We don't have no phone and no baby food.
We're going to die."
It's like you were told to leave and you stayed without preparing. And who cares if you have a phone or not. Phones probably won't work anyway. If you have a baby and didn't leave, you are a self centered moron waiting for a handout. Maybe it is time to take a hand up and get off your ****.
They chose to live in hurricane country same as those who live along a flood river or in tornado country. I'm sure the can buy insurance. I live in tornado land & I have accepted that fact as I knew it long before I moved into to it. I 've always lived in tornado land. Indiana, Iowa, Nebraska, Colorado & Wyoming. We taxpayers shouldn'n be made to pay for others stupidity!!!!!
If you don't then you should be ready to "ride the storm out" Hurricanes can be dangerous and you will at best be uncomfortable and at worst dead. It is not the governments responsibility to force you to evacuate or to come rescue you if do not or can not evacuate.
Your personal safety is your responsibility be a free adult not a captive child of the government.
Typical stupidity of the liberal mindset that thinks no one should be held accountable or responsible for their choices. I would love to live next the beaches and ocean, but if that is my choice why expect others to pay for my choices?
This insanity has got to stop. But the morons want marijuana and drugs legalized, and everything else made acceptable but when their health detiorates or the consequences of their stupid choices is due they want others to pay for their healthcare needs. I believe everyone has a right to healthcare, but lets face it too many people are just wanting a "safety net" so they can do stupid things and live without any accountability or responsibility placed upon them for their actions and life styles.
Reimbursement? Not just NO but H--- NO! Anyone choosing to live next to a coastline should expect to get a storm. The government should not buy your property, rebuild your house, or any of that other garbage. I am from the Gulf Coast, do I still live there? No. Why? Because I do not like hurricanes. My life, my decision. The government has nothing to do with it, they did not tell me that I had to live on the coast.
I lost money in the stock market when it fell from the high 12,000's. Should the government reimburse me for my losses? Liberals will say yes.....LOL!!!!!
LIFE IS NOT FAIR and sure some people need help OCCASSIONALLY! When they start making being "helped", "assisted", "subsidized" and "cradle to grave taken care of" a LIFESTYLE then that is ENOUGH. Get out on your own and take care of YOURSELF.
D Manster - You liberal nuts are the most spoiled self centered people on the face of the earth. Liberals will NEVER help someone else themselves but will berate others whom they seem to think are "not helping" the "needy", usually the liberals themselves.
Call me unpatriotic, unamerican or whatever other stupid thing you want, the bottom line is YOU are supposed to be responsible for YOU. Stop being self righteous and acting like you have given so much help to others when you have not. Such hypocrasy is only rooted in trying to manipulate others into doing what you yourself will not do for yourself, let alone for others.
WoW... What a disgustingly selfish, self-centered, question. Grow up, you faux victim !!!!
You were TRULY lucky that OUR government was technologically able to warn your silly **** that your well-being. could possibly be in danger.
At last count, 39 people lost their lives, and great destruction, in Irene's path.
Yes, it takes a village.. it's called "civilization" to cooperate and co-exist, for the better of U.S. all, but each and everyone of U.S., has to be responsible for their part to play in their community with mutual respect, and involvement.
I can't fathom such a question ever being asked.. So disgustingly pathetic.

SEATTLE (AP) — About 140 same-sex couples are getting married at Seattle's City Hall on Sunday — the first day weddings can take place.
City officials opened City Hall on Sunday at 10 a.m. and 16 local judges volunteered to conduct the weddings. There were five separate chapels to accommodate the couples.
Washington voters approved Referendum 74 in November with 54 percent of the vote. The measure asked voters to either approve or reject the state law legalizing same-sex marriage that legislators passed earlier this year.
The law took effect on Thursday, but state law says couples have wait three days to marry after picking their marriage licenses.
Mayor Mike McGinn says opening city hall on Sunday underlines that the city stands behind the partnership of same-sex couples.

Dear Linux Magazine Reader,
If you were tuned to the blogs recently, you may have noticed the immortals of open source throwing lightening bolts at each other in a very public feud. Of course, everyone
suspected something was brewing when BitMover CEO Larry McVoy suddenly revoked the special arrangement he'd made to provide BitKeeper code management software for the Linux developers. I won't launch into a long play by play, but suffice it to say, not long after the announcement, it emerged that Samba author Andrew Tridgell had developed an open BitKeeper-compatible client. This may seem entirely routine. Isn't that what people like Andrew Tridgell do – build open source tools that challenge the power and privilege of commercial systems? But the story was a bit more complicated. And the swift response from Linus was even more complicated.
