Garlic contains a wide spectrum of organic sulfur compounds that are thought to play important roles in health. The most important garlic sulfur compound appears to be allicin. Allicin is formed from the precursor alliin by the enzymatic action of allinase.
Allicin and the other organosulfur compounds of garlic can support many functions in the body. For example' a number of clinical studies show that garlic supplements help support healthy cardiovascular function. Research also shows that garlic supports normal immune function' and that most of the organosulfur compounds in garlic have potent antioxidant properties.
Garlic may be a useful dietary adjunct for individuals who wish to supplement their diet with this important herb.

Slide 19
Some viruses are risk factors for cancer.
Human Papillomavirus
Certain strains of human papillomavirus (HPV), which are sexually transmitted, are the primary causes of cervical and anal cancer. Women who begin having sexual intercourse before age 17, or who have multiple sexual partners, are at greatest risk of HPV infection.
HPV may also be responsible for some cancers of the head and neck.
It's important to note that most people infected with HPV will not get cancer. Also, a vaccine is now available that can prevent infection with the strains of HPV that cause cervical cancer.
Hepatitis B and C
The hepatitis B and hepatitis C viruses are major causes of liver cancer worldwide. The viruses are transmitted through blood transfusions, injectable drug use, and unprotected sex. Vaccinations can protect against hepatitis B, but there is not yet a vaccine for hepatitis C.

What if human waste, what's left after our bodies extract energy-producing nutrients from our food and cialis best buy drink, could itself be transformed into energy? Four African teenagers went beyond asking this question: they created a generator powered by human urine. The machine, built by 14-year-olds Duro-Aina Adebola, Akindele Abiola, Faleke Oluwatoyin, and 15-year-old Bello Eniola,was presented in Lagos, Nigeria at the fourth annual Maker Faire Africa this November. The pan-African Maker Faire features and supports inventions that work to address problems like the worldwide need for energy production.
According to the www.revistadeteatro.com Maker Faire Africa website, the machine turns 1 liter of urine into 6 hours of electricity and works like this: urine goes into an electrolytic cell, which extracts the hydrogen from the pee (specifically from the urea, one of the main compounds of urine). This hydrogen is purified in a water filter, and then pushed into a gas cylinder. There, the gas cylinder pushes the hydrogen into a liquid borax cylinder, where moisture is removed from the hydrogen gas. Finally, the purified hydrogen gas is pushed into the generator to power it.
As with all new inventions in alternative energy, this generator isn't a panacea for our global energy problems. NBC's John Roach offers a "reality check" concerning the pee-powered generator, pointing out that the buy tramadol without prescription Maker Faire Africa website does not list the wattage produced, so we don't know just how much the generator could power. While Roach's article tempers excitement about the pee generator, it does point to where this technology could be used effectively: wastewater treatment facilities where the pee already flows, ready to be put to use.
Perhaps machines like these could eventually become features of look here what is the cost of levitra wastewater treatment facilities. Such a resourceful new invention that turns waste into electricity could turn wastewater treatment facilities into places where wastewater is viagra buying not only treated, but where pee turns into power.

ITHACA, N.Y. (AP) — Authorities say two people are recovering from injuries suffered in a small explosion in a can recycling machine they were using at a central New York supermarket.
The Ithaca Police Department tells local media outlets that two adults were using a recycling machine in the lobby of a Wegmans supermarket shortly before 6 p.m. Wednesday when the explosion occurred.
Both people were taken to the hospital with minor to moderate injuries to the upper torso and hands.
Police say the store didn't close but customers were diverted away from the scene of the explosion to another entrance.
Police say they're looking into what caused the explosion.

U.S. and Canada set to share traveler information
Published on Wed, Feb 5, 2014 by
Meg Olson
Read More
By midsummer, U.S. and Canadian border agencies will be sharing information on all travelers crossing the border, so that entering one country will provide a record of leaving the other.
The Beyond the Border Action Plan and declaration, agreed to by President Barack Obama and Prime Minister Stephen Harper in 2011, committed both countries to begin implementing a data exchange system.
Implementation began in September 2012 when the countries started exchanging biographic information on third-country nationals and permanent residents of the U.S. and Canada at selected ports of entry. By June 2013, the system was due to be in place at all land border ports, and the plan calls for the exchange of data on all travelers by June 2014.
"Our governments are committed to establishing a coordinated entry and exit information system that bolsters security and improves the efficiency of our shared border," said Canadian minister of public safety Vic Toes at the launch of phase two of the program. A Canadian Border Service Agency (CBSA) fact sheet stated the program would be "closing the loop on an individual's travel history."
A joint U.S./Canada report on phase one of the project stated the program had identified "persons detected overstaying their authorized periods of stay," indicated "whether an individual complied with the terms of his or her admission/entry," and identified "persons subject to a removal or departure order."
The report stated the two countries could meet this need for additional information "through mutual collaboration and without expensive new infrastructure or unnecessary processing that would slow down trade and travel between the two countries."
U.S. Congress first mandated an "automated entry and exit control system" as part of the Illegal Immigration Reform and Immigrant Responsibility Act of 1996.
Border officials have considered various ways to implement such a system, including inspection booths for travelers leaving the country, but frequently met with local concerns that it would unduly hamper legitimate trade and travel. "I think most people would agree this was a more innovative, sensible approach to satisfying the entry/exit mandate," said Hugh Conroy with the International Mobility and Trade Corridor program and the Whatcom Council of Governments.
Privacy has been a concern on both sides of the border. When asked which agencies within the Canadian government would have access to information collected, CBSA representative Maja Graham stated that under phase two, which is currently underway collecting information on third-country and permanent residents, there would be "no systematic disclosure of entry/exit information to U.S. and Canadian federal government departments or agencies." Requests would be handled on a "case by case basis."
U.S. Customs and Border Protection media representatives for the Beyond the Border Action Plan in Washington, D.C. did not return calls for comment. Their press release stated, "the process of collecting and sharing information will be done in accordance with each country's privacy laws and policies."

Q:Hi, Can you please tell me the reason for the different bore sizes. Do paint balls all come in different sizes? I thought they all came in .68 (+/- the manufacturer tolerances)right? In addition how does the insert effect the shot. I'm sure its like a choke some how. Please educate me. Thanks in advance, MikeAsked on 2/28/2013 by michael from United States
1 answer
A:You are correct that all paintballs are .68 caliber but they vary in their actual size. Some paintball batches can be as small as .678 caliber and some as large as .695 caliber. The different size barrel backs allow you to match the exact paintball you are using to the barrel. This will give you the most consistent shots as will as the best accuracy. If the ball is to tight for the barrel, you will have excessive ball breakage. If the ball is to big for the barrel, your accuracy will be off, efficiency of the gun will decrease and the consistency of the shot will drastically decrease.Answered on 4/19/2013 by Staff from Simi Valley, CA

I have a confession.....but it was not a sin, and I don't need forgiveness!
I am not the least bit embarrassed to tell you this story. Who should be embarrassed?
I will tell you!
Mc Donalds!!
I took the girls to get milkshakes as a special treat a few days ago. I went through the drive-through at McDonalds and ordered 2 small vanillla milkshakes and pulled up to the window the pay.
The story goes something like this.
"Hi" I say to the friendly employee at the drive up window.
"Hey Hon," she says.
So far so good!
"That'll be $5.18," friendly employee says.
"Oh, that's not my order. I only ordered 2 small milkshakes," I say.
(it happens. sometimes orders get mixed up, I was understanding of the situation, no biggie)
"That is for the 2 milkshakes."
"How much are they?" Now I am starting to get confused.
"They are $2.59 each," friendly employee explains.
"For 2 SMALL milkshakes?!" I seriously couldn't believe my ears.
"I don't want them then," I say.
Surprised friendly employee says, "You don't want them?"
"No thank you," I say. I was polite as I refused to pay that price.
And then I drove away.
My little girl says, "Mama, where are our milkshakes?"
Don't worry people!
I still got my little ones milkshakes!! I'm not a monster! Just frugal!
I drove across the street to the Burger King where I ordered 2 small vanilla shakes off thier Value Menu for $1.49 a piece. Now that is more like it!!!
Everyone was happy!
The girls had thier shakes....and I had $2.20 extra in my pocket!!
You know what they say about a penny saved......
I am not ashamed! I am proud!
My daughters got thier special treat...and a little lesson about saving money!
Pretty FabuLESS if you ask me!!!

Okrent, Arika
Adult Nonfiction PM8008 .O37 2009
Summary: Just about everyone has heard of Esperanto, which was nothing less than one man's attempt to bring about world peace by means of linguistic solidarity. And every Star Trek fan knows about Klingon, which was nothing more than a television show's attempt to create a tough-sounding language befitting a warrior race with ridged foreheads. But few people have heard of Babm, Blissymbolics, and the nearly nine hundred other invented languages that represent the hard work, high hopes, and full-blown delusions of so many misguided souls over the centuries. In In The Land of Invented Languages , author Arika Okrent tells the fascinating and highly entertaining history of man's enduring quest to build a better language. Peopled with charming eccentrics and exasperating megalomaniacs, the land of invented languages is a place where you can recite the Lord's Prayer in John Wilkins's Philosophical Language, say your wedding vows in Loglan, and read Alice's Adventures in Wonderland in Lojban. A truly original new addition to the booming category of language books, In The Land of Invented Languages will be a must-have on the shelves of all word freaks, grammar geeks, and plain old language lovers.

mADISON, WI (WTAQ) - The Department of Administration says it wants to spend almost a half-million dollars for kitchen renovations at the governor's mansion.
The request for the improvements to both the first-floor kitchen and the second-floor private quarters kitchenette originally came from First Lady Tonette Walker.
The request was reportedly made to the State Building Commission because the first-floor kitchen hasn't been updated for more than 26 years. That facility prepares food for more than 15 thousand visitors each year.
The Wisconsin Executive Residence Foundation is reportedly raising money for the project, but it isn't known how much help that effort will be.

Conventions and Stores and COLOR COMICS, oh my!on January 12, 2012 at 5:25 pm
For those that don't notice that awesome little convention schedule in the right corner of the site. That's it! Just right over there… Betsy and I will be at the Murfreesboro Anime and Comic Convention next weekend, January 21st and 22nd. We'll be selling Trouble Ticket comic books, buttons, and sketch cards as usual. We'll also have something new… NEW!
Betsy and I will be selling original art from this point forward, along with prints of your favorite strips. We're still beta testing the online store, so for now if you're interested in a Trouble Ticket original strip or a print you can click the "Buy This Strip" button under the comic, which should take you to the original art page where you can place your order. (currently we're only accepting orders through PayPal)
"Buy This Strip" will be coming to the Fruit store within the next few days, so don't worry!
In addition, we've finally gotten our studio site off the ground as well. For the latest news on FRUIT! and Trouble Ticket, you can check out our label, Pink Pineapple Ink.
In the coming weeks, we'll be adding a store (proper) to Pink Pineapple Ink where you can pick up buttons, comic books, original art, and some really swanky t-shirts that should be available sometime in February.
Finally, as you can see, I've started doing Trouble Ticket strips in SUPERTECHNOMAGICOLOR! I'm using the same markers that Betsy uses for her strip and I'm loving this process. I feel like it makes the original much more impressive and it looks better on the web as well.
So that's it! Buy some stuff, come see us next weekend and say hi, and keep reading!
~Johnathon (Chuck)

I think Rai Jr. is adorbs. And I never use the word adorbs.
Soloffing is always good for a smile.
Didn't realize how much attention Coraseino was going to get but I'm glad it did.
Continuing my love of putting a smiley face on the Koffing evolutionary family…
And nothing like the corruption of beauty that is Feebotic.
A slightly smoother scoop thanks to Vanillygon-Z.
Ghastdash is pretty majestic.
My favourite Bulbasaur splice I did this year.
It was fun turning Sunflora into a psychotic, possessed flower.
And of course, how could we forget the majestic king of the seas?

Mugshot Monday - "CSA Images Bumble Bee" coffee mug with a Dirty Chai from Janine's Coffeehouse
Janine's Coffeehouse is a cool coffee shop downtown nearby where I work. I stopped by for a Dirty Chai today because this Monday of mine needed a kickstarter.
Ben was working and I asked if he found this coffee mug with a cool bumble bee illo. It said "CSA ARCHIVE" and had a phone number on the handle, but he didn't know where it came from. It's a great coffee mug. But I had no luck googling it's origins, so I called the phone number.
Karen at "CSA IMAGES" answered and gave me the backstory. She said they used to be called "CSA Archive", but changed their name. They sell stock photos and art illustrations, including the bumble bee on that coffee mug.
She said they dropped off 4 of those coffee mugs at the coffee shop 10 or 15 years ago, back before it was Janine's! Sounds like this coffee mug was passed along to at least two different ownerships of the space. What a great story.

The hotel is a great historical building. The location is great on Hollywood Boulevard.
The rooms were rather small and the corridors rather dark.
Great location, comfortable room.
Nice interior.
At the check in I was told I got a complimentary upgrade to poolside room. I was happy until around 10pm when I tried to go to bed. I found out 'upgrade' meant 'you'll sleep on a dance floor'. At 2am my bed was still literally shaking of bass. I had to pack up and go to reception. To be fair, they gave me a replacement room (looks like they are used to it). But they really should warn people before "upgrading".
Small rooms, no storage, out of date, had to pay for coffee and wi-fi in room
The bedroom was very small and dingy lighting
Beautiful Hotel, lobby was stunning, on site bars beautiful.
Not one staff member made us feel special or seemed to go out of their way to greet us upon arrival or leaving.
good location
tired and dirty interior small rooms not suitable for a family
location is a definite plus and the history and decor from the past is a feature that had us return to show family on this holiday.
since our last visit the hotel is looking a little rundown and tired, and in need of a good clean up and the rooms, based on ours, need a paint and freshen up. The bathrooms need a proper vanity as there is no bench space. The dark brown paintwork in the passageways is very depressing and looks dull and dirty. hopefully improvements are on the way for this once spectacular hotel. The bar at the pool also needs a goos clean as it smells of stale beer. I have a hotel and would never allow this to happen if it was being run efficiently.
Staff were so helpful and sent up chocolate strawberries to our room as we were celebrating our honeymoon. The room was superb; clean, functional and very well furnished. Excellent location for sight seeing. Best part of the hotel was the restaurant - best burgers I have ever eaten, yummy cocktails, open 24hrs and reasonably priced.
Valet parking was pricey.
Great hotel to escape the craziness of Hollywood BLVD. Excellent location. Comfy beds, big rooms. Clean. Nice, helpful staff. Great pool area!
No free Wifi ($15 - $21 per day). This is not a cheap hotel they should provide you with free WiFi. Expensive food and drinks by the pool and room service (but yum all the same).
Great location. Lovely hotel. Famous people stayed here!!! Staff were friendly and helpful and gave us a lovely room!
Pool area and food / drinking options excellent with fantastic service and good quality food
Rooms although large were a little dated and could do with updating
Someone went on a spending spree with our room # and our name the night we stayed there. They charged over $600 to our room. Management could care less my cc company says it is fraud and most likely an inside job!
staff and cleanness
to much money on a 4 star
Awesome ambiance and great pool. Rooms are a bit smaller then other hotels, but still very nice. The staff was great in helping us choose restaurants and setting up rides.
Beds were comfortable Pool area was great Could see the Chinese theatre from our room - central and easy location for very touristy location.
Noisy location day and night - plus renovation work noise. Bathrooms dated
Location, decor, staff.
Having to pay for wifi and breakfast even after paying for a pool cabana which is not cheap. Have stayed in hotels of similar quality and not had to pay for wifi! I found that quite ridiculous.
The architecture, particularly the main lobby off Hollywood Boulevard, although pity with all the renovations the fountain was empty
Most things, first of all the cost was extortionate, we were by the pool in a Cabana room, bathroom wasn't clean, flush the toilet and it sounds like a jet engine (not must in your room). They have parties by the pool and even on nights when no one is out there they still leave the music on till 12pm - 2am (as is apparent hotel policy). We were tools internet was an additional charge (to our $700 per night room charge) so I didn't bother, only to find the next day there is a free WiFi service at 512k speed, more than adequate for most work emails (and searching for an alternative hotel). I'm not usually one to post a negative review but I can tell you, with approximately 150 hotel nights a year, I'm reasonable well justified to say this is my WORST hotel experience ever
Happy hour
Cost of wifi , dark & dingy , small rooms , to put our party on same floor meant an upgrade of $100 per room , leaky shower , shall we go on !!!!
concierge ALBERT gave us e vary precious advice about UBER taxi service, good value for money; also the pool was very pleasant in the middle of such a crowded city!
Location. Weekdays service was good, food was excellent and staff was pleasant.
The hotel allows non guest to use services and facilities like the pool. Turns into an all day into the wee hours nightclub on the weekend so don't plan on getting any rest. No privacy or place to relax unless you want to hide in your room. The overflow of guests greatly reduced service for beverages, food and general concierge support. Getting something to drink or car service could literally take an hour to get order in. Avoid weekends.
Great location. Special thanks to Millie for all her help and for sending up some champagne and cake when she heard it was my wife's birthday.
Location, being upgraded to a $1500 a night suite on arrival because our room was unavailable, decor, reception staff were very friendly & efficient.
Mandatory valet parking & fee
Location, location, location! Close to metro - 5min train ride to universal studios
A bit pricey for what you get, but you really are just paying to be in the centre of everything.
I like it so much staying here. The location, swimming pool, customer service and almost everything about this hotel was great!!

The Bush White House, already recognized as the most secretive in history, used laptop computers and other communications devices paid for by the Republican National Committee to conceal questionable activities from investigators and circumvent the law.
The laptops, used alongside official White House computers, provided a way for Bush political guru Karl Rove (above) to work "off the books" and send communications that bypassed traditional channels and avoid the tracking systems used in the West Wing.
Writes Tom Hambuger of the Los Angeles Times:
When Karl Rove and his top deputies arrived at the White House in 2001, the Republican National Committee provided them with laptop computers and other communication devices to be used alongside their government-issued equipment.
The back-channel e-mail and paging system, paid for and maintained by the RNC, was designed to avoid charges that had vexed the Clinton White House — that federal resources were being used inappropriately for political campaign purposes.
Now, that dual computer system is creating new embarrassment and legal headaches for the White House, the Republican Party and Rove's once-vaunted White House operation.
Democrats say evidence suggests the RNC e-mail system was used for political and government policy matters in violation of federal record preservation and disclosure rules.
In addition, Democrats point to a handful of e-mails obtained through ongoing inquiries suggesting the system may have been used to conceal such activities as contacts with lobbyist Jack Abramoff, who was convicted on bribery charges and is now in prison for fraud.
Democratic congressional investigators are beginning to demand access to this RNC-White House communications system, which was used not only by Rove's office but by several top officials elsewhere in the White House.
The prospect that such communication might become public has further jangled the nerves of an already rattled Bush White House.

It only exposes the obvious. There was never a government of the people. It's always been an elite shadow government pretending to be ours. This just highlights how bold and arrogant they have become . . . stealing elections, bribing officials, giving favors to donors, torturing who they please, ignoring the constitution, ignoring international law, lying about war, promoting the most ignorant, firing the most honest . . . Catch 22.
so there IS a connection between Paul Wolfowitz – the neo-con, Straussian father of the "War" in Iraq (Step One of the PNAC) and now head of the World Bank – AND those like-minded Pentagon officials – including the Comptroller who oversaw the disappearance of Trillions of taxpayers' dollars – with whom he's conspired since 9/11/2001 to have happen…
One question would be: where's that money right now?
Try financing mercenaries willing – for enough money – to have initiated sectarian violence in Iraq – with the Grand Mosque in Samarrah, on the eve of the 2004 elections, and many times since.
figure it out.
Now I'm no legal expert but what are these RNC tied laptops doing on the WH premises? What are these "staffers" doing on the taxpayers' dollar? Whether they are emailing Abramoff staff, plotting the overthrow of the judicial system, or typing sweet notes to Ken Mehlman
it was still most likely when they were being paid to do the business of ALL American citizens as they were paid by the same. The verrrrry first thing that s/b reviewed before we get into all the content is the date/time that this "work" was done. Might I suggest that everyone of these staffers be docked an hour's pay for each and every email sent on the taxpayers' dime. BTW do they get OT?
Just Asking.
I'm shocked!
We can't start trying to figure out who is drawing government pay when they are performing purely personal agendas. If we do we will find that most of them only spend about 20% of their time doing what we pay them for.
What about all the current candidates for president? We are paying them while they are fundraising and campaigning. That holds true for every one of them during the election cycles.
Most of the politition's time concerns their career and is spent play politics. Government is politics. Very little of it functions the way it's supposed to. And that which does is always designed to draw attention, make a name for themselves, and further someone's career.
This is what you get with the two party system. None of them do the job they were hired to do. Everything has to do with the other party. What are they doing, what will they do and so forth. Nothing is done because it should be done or it is best for the nation. Most of it is done because it is best for them and/or their party. The only real government business occurs if and when it's necessary, like funding essentials.
So, picking on one piece of it by one person is silly.
History will record this administration as having been not only the most brazenly corrupt but the most inwardly disceptive, even unto itself.
I can't even imagine what it must be like for the majority of decent federal [and state] government employees who are being intimidated to keep quiet about the wholesale sell-off of this Nation that surely they are witnessing day-after-day.
If I live long enough, maybe some of those employees will have found the courage and the honor to have come forward to speak about and verify what the majority of Americans already know.
Soon we'll hear of another impotent probe being launched by "republicrats" who most if not all, are on the same "shadow team". The Whitehouse has a shadow computer system, the U.S. government has also a long-standing shadow government in the event of nuclear war or possibly an asteroid incoming. There is also a political shadow government that this newly disclosed computer system serves. So this means that as bad as Buscho seems publicly there's shadowy deep-pocket controllers twitching their strings from London, Zurich, Ridyah, Tel Aviv, Beijing, and of course from the backporch on behalf of mega-wealthy U.S. patrons probably all given access to this same system. They probably are not using the normal web either, but are using the governments secure shadow net.
The visible U.S. government is nothing but a feelgood display for the un-washed masses that labor as slaves from minimum wage jobs to even high-level corporate positions all being indebted until the 12th of never with nothing in return for their America, now simply AmeriKa! We are all in the same boat as far as the aforementioned elitists are concerned, we are nothing but groundlings; i.e, their prey, and they, the planetary corporate predators feeding at the "debt-trough" of the U.S. Treasury.
America and the world is in harms way with this evil corporatist system that is now in place and growing all the time. My best suggestion is kick every incumbent that's currently in D.C. out of office when they come up for re-election regardless of their ongoing promises and weighing in on the strength of their incumbency on powerful, pork-barrel feeding committees etc. This is precisely why we are in our current predicament as a nation! We not only need term limits, but I'm saying they should only get a single term in D.C., all of them. The executive and legislative branches need to be reigned back-in bigtime. It's probably too late to do so because the electorate is more enamoured with the illusory comfort of their heavily indebted "good-life" to get involved with the everso tedious business of having to pay attention as to how they are governed.
I'll provide the duty link so citizen/patriots regardless of party affiliation can contact their elected "republicrat" and demand summary action concerning this newly discovered shadow computer system. These mattoids in the Whitehouse are about 4 years overdue for impeachment. Fire your thought-shot across the bow of dreadnaught "Tyranny"…! http://www.conservativeusa.org/megalink.htm
This may seem unrelated, but in my mind it isn't.
I recall numerous instances of video footage of the President and his White House staff cutting cedar brush together at his Texas ranch. The images were intended to portray these people as rugged, for political gain. While this may seem like a complaint about a trifle, recall that the indictments against Reps. Rostenkowski and Trafficante included allegations of felonies for using federal employees to do private yardwork or private farmwork.
The laptops located in the White House by the RNC comprise just another example of how this administration has used the White House and its staff for private purposes, rather than solely to conduct the taxpayers' business.
Nothing can shock the American people anymore then what has been exposed. This administration will go down in history as the most corrupt, secretive, and most power hungry president since Nixon. Wherever Nixon's soul is now, he is smiling knowing that Bush's legacy has surpassed his as the worst ever in history.
Have you forgotten about cigar sticking slick Willie Clinton? He who pardons terrorists and forgives felons? The one who does not think that a blow job is sex?
I find it surprising any "outsider" laptops are even allowed in the White House. Bending the rules there? Using government facilities and property to conduct personal or illegal activities?
Perhaps Bu$h just re-wrote the rules (probably like Clinton before him)? Just try to take a camera, cell phone, camera cell phone, or even a portable CD player or Ipod into a secured government facility. Any reg'lar US citizen would be fired and perhaps charged & jailed. A record forever banning us from government service.
Bunch of hypocrites and traitors (as usual).
Greg may be interested in doing a deep cavity investigation on this creep Michael Connell who is tied to this story and maybe even vote fraud. Anyone with information on Connell or more details of this story contact email@example.com
how CAN you compare anything Clinton did with what George dufus Bush has done?
The massive fraud perpetrated by the Bush administration on the American public – and the world (via Douglas Feith in the Office of Special Plans, in the basement of the Pentagon) to launch an attack on Iraq using phoney "intelligence", should invite an enormous class-action civil suit for "fraud by inducement".
They're ruining the country.
Either help save it or get out of the way.
You guys are going to save it by running around the country sniffing the hind ends of dictators?
Stop drinking the Kool Aid Buddy!
Ha Ha Ha……..
by being childish.
Where's your backbone?
you've gotta rise above petty prejudice

Pratfall in Damascus
Nancy Pelosi's foolish shuttle diplomacy
Thursday, April 5, 2007; Page A16
HOUSE SPEAKER Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) offered an excellent demonstration yesterday of why members of Congress should not attempt to supplant the secretary of state when traveling abroad. After a meeting with Syrian dictator Bashar al-Assad in Damascus, Ms. Pelosi announced that she had delivered a message from Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert that "Israel was ready to engage in peace talks" with Syria. What's more, she added, Mr. Assad was ready to "resume the peace process" as well. Having announced this seeming diplomatic breakthrough, Ms. Pelosi suggested that her Kissingerian shuttle diplomacy was just getting started. "We expressed our interest in using our good offices in promoting peace between Israel and Syria," she said.
Only one problem: The Israeli prime minister entrusted Ms. Pelosi with no such message. "What was communicated to the U.S. House Speaker does not contain any change in the policies of Israel," said a statement quickly issued by the prime minister's office. In fact, Mr. Olmert told Ms. Pelosi that "a number of Senate and House members who recently visited Damascus received the impression that despite the declarations of Bashar Assad, there is no change in the position of his country regarding a possible peace process with Israel." In other words, Ms. Pelosi not only misrepresented Israel's position but was virtually alone in failing to discern that Mr. Assad's words were mere propaganda.

Ms. Pelosi was criticized by President Bush for visiting Damascus at a time when the administration — rightly or wrongly — has frozen high-level contacts with Syria. Mr. Bush said that thanks to the speaker's freelancing Mr. Assad was getting mixed messages from the United States. Ms. Pelosi responded by pointing out that Republican congressmen had visited Syria without drawing presidential censure. That's true enough — but those other congressmen didn't try to introduce a new U.S. diplomatic initiative in the Middle East. "We came in friendship, hope, and determined that the road to Damascus is a road to peace," Ms. Pelosi grandly declared.
Never mind that that statement is ludicrous: As any diplomat with knowledge of the region could have told Ms. Pelosi, Mr. Assad is a corrupt thug whose overriding priority at the moment is not peace with Israel but heading off U.N. charges that he orchestrated the murder of former Lebanese prime minister Rafiq al-Hariri. The really striking development here is the attempt by a Democratic congressional leader to substitute her own foreign policy for that of a sitting Republican president. Two weeks ago Ms. Pelosi rammed legislation through the House of Representatives that would strip Mr. Bush of his authority as commander in chief to manage troop movements in Iraq. Now she is attempting to introduce a new Middle East policy that directly conflicts with that of the president. We have found much to criticize in Mr. Bush's military strategy and regional diplomacy. But Ms. Pelosi's attempt to establish a shadow presidency is not only counterproductive, it is foolish.

A developer's plans to replace the Grove Isle Hotel and Spa with a fourth 18-story tower has neighbors steaming at the thought of noisy construction and a 180-foot-tall building blocking their views of Biscayne Bay.
Anger erupted at a December meeting of the Grove Isle condominium association, where developers presented their plans for the seven acres on the north end of the isle, which is where the hotel stands now. The association has since hired a lawyer, and now the plans for a new 65-unit condominium tower with a private club, spa and tennis facility are tied up in Miami's zoning department.
"We are still reviewing the issue," said Miami City Attorney Victoria Méndez.
Meanwhile, some residents have formed the Preserve Grove Isle Committee to oppose the tower. In response, the developer started its own website to state its case for a new tower with an improved club and spa that would completely privatize the island.
The faces and names may be different, but the fighting over how to develop Grove Isle isn't new.
The future of the northern tip of the small island just off Coconut Grove hinges on the validity of a decades-old agreement between the city of Miami and previous landowners. In the 1970s, the city sued developers who wanted to build the three 18-story towers that currently stand on Grove Isle, home to about 500 luxury condos valued in the millions.
Under the 1977 agreement that adheres to a now-repealed zoning ordinance, the developer could build up to four towers 18 stories high with a maximum of 575 units. But only three towers were built at the time.
Grove Isle Associates bought the property last spring and wants to invoke the 1977 settlement to move its plan for a 65-unit tower forward. The company's development director is longtime Miami developer Eduardo Avila, who has had projects in Brickell, Key Biscayne and downtown Coral Gables.
In a letter to Miami's planning department in January 2013, the company's attorney, Lucia Dougherty, of law firm Greenberg Traurig, argued that the 1977 agreement still stands.
The city's response came from then-deputy city attorney Maria Chiaro, who is now in private practice in Naples. She agreed with Grove Isle Associates.
"Legally I find that there exists continuing applicability of the covenant and settlement agreement, that the rights therein are vested and that the parties' ongoing obligation pursuant to them entitles the construction of an 18-story residential tower on Grove Isle and other construction within certain constraints," she wrote.
In early February of this year, the Grove Isle homeowners association had their attorney send a nine-page legal analysis that contradicts the developer's stance. In it, attorney Tony Recio, of the Weiss Serota firm, wrote that the window for developing a fourth tower legally closed after building permits were pulled to construct the existing three towers.
"Accordingly, the vested rights provided in the settlement agreement were exercised through the building permits and there remain no additional vested rights," he wrote. "Any further development of Grove Isle must necessarily comply with all aspects of current regulations."
Recio contends the developer does have the right to develop — but the company must follow the current zoning code known as Miami 21, which limits buildings to five-story heights.
On Friday, Avila met an executive committee of the condo association's board of directors to show them what his plans would look like under strict guidelines.
"If I can't go up, I have to go horizontal," he told the Miami Herald afterward.
Between two and four five-story buildings would be built along the northern edge of the island, curving with the shoreline and eliminating space for the club, spa and tennis courts.
Avila said he understands some residents' concerns about their views, but he said the single tower would have the least impact on the the fewest people. The top five floors of the northernmost existing tower would lose their unobstructed views, but renderings from architect firm RTKL show sight lines would be wider for residents on lower floors because of the new tower's curved shape.
After a full association board meeting Friday evening where all members got to see the alternatives, member Tim Moore said the association is still reviewing its rights on the island.
"In both cases, it's going to obstruct our view and radically change the ambience of the island," he said. "We're still deciding which is the worst of two evils."
Moore lives on the 16th floor of the third tower, which would have its view of the bay and the downtown Miami skyline blocked under the developer's plan.
Edgar Lewis, board president, said the association will continue to have meetings and look at its options.

Demi Lovato 's single "Give Your Heart a Break" was her biggest hit yet -- it was even performed on last week's episode of Glee. And as she moves on to her next record, Demi says she wants to stay away from trendy sounds and focus on actual feelings.
Speaking to Teen Vogue , Demi says, "For a long time, I was pretending to be someone that I wasn't, and I was miserable. When I came out and said, 'I'm human, I've got problems, but I'm willing to share them,' that's when I started to really connect. I've just begun working on my fourth album, and I want to do that in my music too."
She explains, "I'm tired of songs that don't have much emotion in them...I want to make something that people will listen to for a while, rather than something that's just trendy. I feel like I've grown as a person, and I want my music to grow with me."
Demi admits that she's "tired of all the dubstep on the radio right now" and predicts it'll be "out in two months." Instead, she's looking to two specific artists for inspiration.
She tells Teen Vogue, "I love the way that Adele has carved out a path for a singer that's very emotional, but I also love how Taylor Swift can do the same thing -- she puts a lot into her songs yet they're still very catchy."
In the Teen Vogue article, Demi also addresses those pesky rumors that she's dating Niall Horan of One Direction .
"He's a really awesome, sweet guy. But he's not my boyfriend," insists Demi. "I'm in a place right now where I really need to focus on myself. Obviously, I'm still going to like people -- or love them -- but I need to not be in a relationship for a while because I need to be okay with being alone first."
The X Factor judge adds, "I'm really happy right now. I never thought it was possible to be happy because of how depressed I was my entire life. But I feel so incredible. It's like I'm living in a dream."

Expansion of Anti-Fraud Toolkit
Immigration Service Provider Fraud Training Video (14:23)
Video provides an overview of "Ten Year benefit" scam and includes dramatized illustrations ("mock situations") that demonstrate the problems victims face as they navigate the immigration system.
Immigrants and their U.S. citizen family members continue to fall prey to immigration service provider fraud as they seek a path to legal status or naturalization for their loved ones. The ILRC has developed an Anti-Fraud Immigration Service Provider curriculum to help agencies that work with immigrants and their U.S. citizen family members to inform them about immigration service provider fraud. The toolkit also includes a training video which illustrates a very common immigration service provider scam called the "10 Year Benefit." The video and curriculum are meant to work in tandem with the anti-fraud know your rights handouts, comic books, bus signs, district attorney handbook and various anti-fraud materials included on this website. The materials provide information on common immigration provider scams, ways in which immigrants and U.S. citizens can avoid such scams and resources for finding help.

Tyler Wright has claimed the 2013 Roxy Pro Gold Coast presented by Land Rover over Sally Fitzgibbons (AUS), 22, in punchy two-to-three foot (1 metre) waves at the primary venue of Snapper Rocks.
Event No. 1 of 7 on the 2013 ASP Women's World Championship Tour (WCT), the Roxy Pro Gold Coast enjoyed a down-to-the-wire finish today with Wright and Fitzgibbons going head-to-head in a fiercely-fought Final.
Despite Fitzgibbons holding the lead for the majority of the heat, Wright secured a wave in the dying moments and tore it apart for a 9.20 out of a possible 10, taking the heat lead and the win.
"I don't even know what to say right now," Wright said. "I wasn't even thinking out there. I was singing to myself and when I came in, my sister said 'I was singing right along with you'. That little wave came in and hugged the bank and I just left it all on the wave. To get the score and the win like that, it's incredible."
With a win at the opening stop of the year, Wright takes the initial lead in the hunt for the 2013 ASP Women's World Title, but the young natural-footer is focused on enjoying the moment for now.
"I'm not even thinking about the world title," Wright said. "I had a rough season last year and I took a good break over the offseason, got a motorbike and just relaxed. To come back and get a win in the first event, it feels great and I'm just going to enjoy it."
Fitzgibbons, 2012 ASP Women's World Runner-Up, was one of the form surfers of the event and transferred that form into the Final. However, the young South Coast surfer permitted Wright to take the heat-winning wave from under her priority, a mistake that would cost Fitzgibbons dearly.
"It's a hard one to swallow when you lose like that," Fitzgibbons said. "Tyler (Wright) is such a strong surfer and she trains really hard and she pulled it out on that final wave so congrats to her. Not the result I wanted, but still a strong start for me so I'll just regroup and focus on the next one."
Carissa Moore (HAW), 20, 2011 ASP Women's World Champion, continued with her brand of progressive ripping at the opening event of the season, but it was not enough this morning in her Semifinal clash with Fitzgibbons.

Definitely grilling this weekend! Anyone have a good recipes for a potato or macaroni salad that doesn't have mayo?
Looking forward to grilling up one of the best sandwiches ever:
I've served this to scores of people, and even salmon/fish haters love it. One of my summertime party standbys.
London Broil tonight, salmon and turkey burgers tomorrow and shrimp on Sunday; Monday hasn't been decided yet.
My dear, if one is cooking on that wood-fired Weber in the photo then one is BBQing, not grilling!
GraceF-- how about Italian pasta salad: rotini, assorted fresh veg (brocolli, cauli, carrot, grape tomatoes, celery, greek olives, sunflower seeds or pine nuts if you want) a little grated parm or crumbled feta, dressed in plenty of your favorite vinagrette or even a good bottled Italian in a pinch. Mix and let marinate for a good few hours for max flavor.
Potoato salad with a mustard vinagrette, diced red potatoes, crumbled bacon and blue cheese, celery, onion/shallot. Garnish with more bacon and sliced scallions.
BBQ chicken was cooked tonight, with bbq sauce recipe handed down from my grandma. Already purchased pork tenderloin (preparation tbd) and pork spare ribs to be grilled with that same bbq sauce!
Beer can chicken, black bean and mango salsa, grilled corn salad and grilled asparagus with a balsamic glaze.
Lots of beer, wine and other adult refreshments. Little tequila with sangrita for me.
Gonna be a great day!
Mmm. Well, we don't have outdoor space, so we just did a bistro night: mussels steamed in wine, green beans, and homemade fries. Tomorrow we're going to try the korean barbecue featured the other day, but the indoor version. Yay summer!
