Apr 6 2013: TED really doesn't want us here!
Time Walker 10+
Apr 6 2013: In regards to your comment about Brian Weiss,
I find that the more I open up about my own experiences, the more I find out how common they really are. The very people one might think would be least accepting are often the most open to psi: doctors, scientists, military personal.
As a grad student struggling with these experiences, I went to a friend who was the director of Integrative Sciences at my university to talk to her about what I should do. She immediately suggested some experiments we could try! And that's what we did. It wouldn't have mattered to me if the results had been negative (they weren't), because I just wanted permission to study these experiences and put them to the test.
It was then I realized that there was a taboo involved in doing experiments to study psi. Why should there be such a taboo? It makes no sense at all. Even if the results are null, so what? Null results still teach us something. But my education as a scientist had indoctrinated me into a POV in which curiosity about certain topics is taboo. Psi is taboo.
John Campbell 10+
Apr 6 2013: They are trying very hard not to allow that. I was even censored on another conversation for mentioning psi research that was very relevant to the topic:
I didn't even use the word "psi". But TED doesn't want anyone to even know this research is being done.
Apr 6 2013: I couldn't reply directly to your comment about the growing sense of community among those interested in psi research, so I'll do so here.
I think many people have psi experiences, and they are used to being told to deny those experiences. It's very much akin to what the LBGT community has gone through. There was a time when being gay was considered a mental illness. Today we know that's nonsense. People who have spiritual experiences are not mentally ill either.
People have a right to be curious about psi. It's a normal part of human experience. They should have free access to information about psi,be able to read about research currently being done and have forums in which to discuss these topics. It's no wonder that people want to connect over these issues.
Apr 6 2013: Most people have experienced various kinds PSI effects in their own lives at some point or another, which is why some scientists have thought it an area worth exploring. My own introduction to the research was Koestler's "Roots of Coincidence", which summed up the research that had been done up until the early 70s. Now we have over 50 years of studies and when I see the kind of work being done by Radin, Persinger, Targ, and Sheldrake I just can't understand why their work should be suppressed by the mainstream. These are scientists, and I don't care how many times someone calls it pseudoscience, it's real science. What they really mean when they call it pseudoscience is impermissible science.
It's worth noting that Koestler was an atheist who believed PSI effects were real based on the evidence he presented in his book. I think he'd be shocked to see the morphing of atheism with this absolutist skepticism we see today.
sandy stone 30+Apr 6 2013: I had no idea that there even was such a thing as psi research, until I had experiences I couldn't explain. I felt like a "bad scientist", because scientists don't have those experiences, right???
Well, of course they do!
Looking back, it makes me angry that the very kind of research that could have helped me was being suppressed. I'm not religious. I wasn't looking for a faith-based answer to my questions. I wanted quantifiable evidence. It took me a long time to find out that it was out there.
Apr 6 2013: Sandy, what your story makes me think of is Brian Weiss who accidentally regressed a patient to ancient Babylon and continued that course of treatment because it was the only thing that was working. Here he is, a secular Jew, Yale Med School grad, with no spiritual beliefs at all really. He stumbles into past life regression therapy and it works. He wrote Many Lives, Many Masters about the case study. He was so sure it would be met with nothing but contempt and derision from other doctors and psychiatrists. Instead he was deluged with letters from doctors who wanted to talk about all the phenomena they'd been seeing around life and death for years but were too afraid to talk about.

Revenge: As a summer to remember ends in the Hamptons, new arrival Emily Thorne dazzles the members of high society by making herself known in the exclusive social circle of Grayson Global CEO Conrad Grayson and his socialite wife Victoria. But it soon becomes clear that the beguiling young philanthropist has a dark past. Emily was once known as Amanda Clarke, a young nine-year-old whose life was torn apart when her father - Grayson Global hedge fund manager David Clarke - was falsely accused of channeling money to a terrorist organization responsible for the downing of a commercial airliner. Now living under an assumed identity, she is determined to seek vengeance on the people who destroyed her...

Well, It looks like the merry-go-round has started. yes season 3 started okay but trust me you will soon get bored and worse, it will get so confusing that you will give up. yes, It's turning into a soap opera so if you enjoy that kind of venue it will be a good season. They are now going to spread out the episodes to keep you longer without spending the money and next don't be surprised if you see reruns in between new episodes. You see its American TV and it's all about money without consideration for the viewer. That's my 2 cents for what it's worth.

President Barack Obama, seeking to offer fresh economic proposals that could pass a gridlocked Congress, will call for a restructuring of business taxes so long as the initial revenue generated goes toward job creation.
Obama, in a speech later today in Chattanooga, Tennessee, will argue that years of budget fights have diverted attention from the need to help middle-income Americans recover from the recession, according to administration officials.
As an alternative to seeking quick passage of the deficit- reduction formula that has eluded lawmakers for two years --some combination of increased tax revenue and entitlement curbs -- Obama will propose spending more on job creation efforts. The initiatives would include help for manufacturing, worker training, and infrastructure improvements.
The programs would be funded with a one-time transition fee associated with the $2 trillion in foreign earnings that are currently held overseas, said an administration official who asked not to be identified to discuss details before the speech.
The officials declined to specify how much money would be generated and didn't detail how it would be structured. The proposal marks a shift for Obama, who has previously called for rewriting individual and business income tax law together.
"The President will call on Washington to work on a grand bargain focused on middle class jobs by pairing reform of the business tax code with a significant investment in middle class jobs," said Dan Pfeiffer, a senior adviser to the president.
Obama, in February 2012, proposed reducing the top corporate rate for most companies to 28 percent from 35 percent. The plan would eliminate tax breaks and change core tax code features such as interest deductibility. He's also proposed lowering the rate for manufacturers to 25 percent and expanding and making permanent the research-and-development tax credit.
Today's speech, at an Amazon.com Inc. distribution center, is the latest in Obama's campaign-style effort to turn attention back to the economy as he heads into fresh budget fights with Congress over funding the government and raising the debt ceiling.

Kate Moss' pampered pooch
Kate Moss is besotted with her dog Archie and the pooch is treated to regular beauty treatments and even has his own bedroom.
Kate Moss' dog has his own bedroom.
The 39-year-old supermodel - who has daughter Lila, 10, from a relationship with Jefferson Hack - dotes on her Staffordshire mix Archie and her country retreat in the Cotswolds, South West England, boasts a room for the pooch, complete with a walk-in wardrobe to house his collars and coats.
And Archie is also treated to regular pampering treatments by his owner.
A source told the Daily Star newspaper: ''Kate's head over heels in love with Archie.
''She's had a cabinet designed to keep all his grooming beauty products and hairbrushes.
''Kate gets him washed and blow-dried. She even likes him to have a spray of doggie deodorant.''
Kate - who is married to The Kills rocker Jamie Hince - recently admitted she had changed her style to suit Archie because walking him in high heels was tricky.
She said last summer: ''I'm more Day [wear]. I've got a dog. Ha. He's eight months. So I've got a dog, and the dog's making me more Day.
''It's a nightmare. You can't do a dog in a heel. I'm having to rethink everything. You can't walk a dog in a heel. You look ridiculous.''

Could the source of Dark Energy be light?
As light travels through space, it loses energy.
Could this energy from photons be transmitted and stored in the fabric of space, causing it to expand, deep in intergalactic space, where gravitational fields are minimal?
Dark energy seems to have increased as the amount of light generated by the universe has increased, and it seems that it will decrease when the light generated by the universe decreases, allowing for the universe to collapse on itself again.
Closing Statement from mike fernandes
Logic was at the core in the formation of this idea. I believe that the force behind the expansion is 1 of the 4 known forces, and therefore, it must likely be electromagnetic in nature.
The idea fits in with the notion that Dark Energy is electromagnetic in nature. Light seems to be powering this continued expansion, and it could even power an electromagnetic force in the fabric of space itself.

Can we improve the statistical analysis of stroke trials? Statistical reanalysis of functional outcomes in stroke trials
Optimising Analysis of Stroke Trials Collaboration, OAST (2007) Can we improve the statistical analysis of stroke trials? Statistical reanalysis of functional outcomes in stroke trials. Stroke, 38 . pp. 1911-1915. ISSN 0039-2499
Official URL: http://stroke.ahajournals.org/cgi/reprint/38/6/1911
Background and Purpose—Most large acute stroke trials have been neutral. Functional outcome is usually analyzed using a yes or no answer, eg, death or dependency versus independence. We assessed which statistical approaches are most efficient in analyzing outcomes from stroke trials. Methods—Individual patient data from acute, rehabilitation and stroke unit trials studying the effects of interventions which alter functional outcome were assessed. Outcomes included modified Rankin Scale, Barthel Index, and "3 questions". Data were analyzed using a variety of approaches which compare 2 treatment groups. The results for each statistical test for each trial were then compared. Results—Data from 55 datasets were obtained (47 trials, 54 173 patients). The test results differed substantially so that approaches which use the ordered nature of functional outcome data (ordinal logistic regression, t test, robust ranks test, bootstrapping the difference in mean rank) were more efficient statistically than those which collapse the data into 2 groups (2; ANOVA, P0.001). The findings were consistent across different types and sizes of trial and for the different measures of functional outcome. Conclusions—When analyzing functional outcome from stroke trials, statistical tests which use the original ordered data are more efficient and more likely to yield reliable results. Suitable approaches included ordinal logistic regression, test, and robust ranks test.

Tata Steel cuts UK workforce by 900
London, United Kingdom (4E) – Tata Steel plans to scale back its operations in the UK, which means 900 people could be out of work including 600 workers in its south Wales plant.
The company was forced to restructure its UK business due to the slowdown in the British steel manufacturing industry. The move will affect jobs based in south Wales, West Midlands, Yorkshire and Teesside.
About 12-14 per cent of Tata's consolidated total revenue is spent on personnel costs.
The company recently reported a quarterly loss of Rs 363.93 during the July to September period due to weakness of its European operations. Its European business account for three-fifths of its consolidated revenue being the continent's second biggest steel producer.
As part of its £250m investment plan, Tata said that it would revive one of two blast furnaces at Port Talbot by early 2013.
Tata's chief executive for European operations Karl Kohler stated that the company is moving toward becoming an "all-weather" steel producer and sustainable despite difficult economic conditions.
Tata, whose UK steel business workforce totals 19,000, noted that demand for steel in Europe has fallen by 25 per cent since 2007 and is expected to further drop by another 10 per cent in 2013.

You are being asked to participate in this research study because you have glaucoma, which is the second leading cause of blindness in the world and accounts for 15% of blindness worldwide. Vision loss caused by glaucoma can significantly worsen your health-related quality of life. Despite the fact that glaucoma has such a big impact on a large number of people, research examining the long-term effects of glaucoma-related vision loss on one's quality of life is scarce.
The purpose of this study is to look at the long-term effect of this condition on your quality of life so that we may gain valuable information about what factors influence the quality of life of people with glaucoma. To participate in this study, you will need to allow us to perform clinical tests on your eyes, to self-report your well-being and health-related quality of life, and to let us know how well you perform your daily life activities.

Do you sometimes get the sense that all men are after one thing and one thing only? Can a guy's name really predict whether he'll want sex on the first date?
In this video, author, creator of neimology science and YourTango Expert Sharon Lynn Wyeth explains that you can tell a lot about a guy by the letters in his name. For example, the letters "E" and "R" in a man's name indicate he's likely to want sex soon into a new relationship. However, not all guys are like that.

Committed: Hellblazer – DC Shoot Themselves in the Foot (again)
Today I found out that Hellblazer is cancelled, and John Constantine is moving into the main, general DC universe (see the CBR piece for more about the mechanics on that.)
Unable to come up with any decent new ideas, DC has gone from fiddling with one 30 year old Alan Moore creation – Watchmen – to messing up another: Hellblazer. Of course DC has forced itself to continue this practice of pillaging it's own powerful history of creations because it has hobbled the creation of new ideas. A champion against creators rights, and infamously instituting a policy of marketing-driven, decision-making-by-committee, the comic book publisher has become a bastion of tired ideas and restrictively tedious comic books. In this brave new world, there is obviously no space for a renegade division like Vertigo, and the gradual dismantling continues apace, as they hand the reigns of Constantine over to an American writer and place John Constantine (a characters who's very raison d'etre is the juxtaposition of his own very British strangeness within the mundane "real" world) in the DC universe

Well, it's not all news: we have integrated The Daily Show and periodic pieces from Colbert Report. While some may find it objectionable, Jon Stewart and Stephen Colbert are still providing clear exposure of perspective on current events. CP realizes they are 'considered' left leaning. However, they are making fun of both sides of the aisle, and the balance leans to the side offering the most nonsensical or ironic material at any given time.

December 1, 2012
Columbia, S.C.
Report by Jim H. &
Hard to guess the crowd size in such a large arena, but I'd guess about 4,000. Another hot crowd. The Twitter poll was whether Ricardo Rodriguez would be allowed at ringside for a Randy Orton vs. Alberto Del Rio match. Tony Chimel was the announcer.
(1) The Miz defeated Damien Sandow. Sandow came out first and cut a promo to a ton of boos. He repeatedly asked for silence, which only made the boos louder. Sandow stated that since we wouldn't listen, he would have to make his point tonight through physicality. Miz came out to a decent reaction. He seemed to enjoy playing the face and really played it up for the crowd. Sandow began with some calisthenics. He frustrated Miz early, while taunting him and doing a cartwheel. But, Miz fought back and did some trash-talking of his own. Sandow tried to take a walk, but Miz brought him back. They went back and forth for a while, but Miz hit the Skullcrushing Finale for the win.
(2) Fandango defeated Ted DiBiase. Fandango began with some calisthenics and dance moves. DiBiase countered and mocked Fandango with some dance moves of his own. DiBiase hit a suicide dive and they brawled on the outside. Fandango eventually won by pinfall, but to be honest me and many others at ringside were distracted checking our phones to try and figure out what was happening at the end of the SEC Championship Game, so I can't even really recall the finishing sequence.
Alberto Del Rio and Roberto Rodriguez appeared on the video screens hyping Del Rio's match with Orton.
(3) Layla & Paige defeated Natalya & Aksana. Natalya came out first to mostly cheers, although she managed to get herself booed once the match started. Then, Aksana came out. Layla and Paige came out as a team and got a really nice reaction from the crowd. Layla started against Aksana and pretty much had her way with her. Layla incorporated some of her butt-based offense, much to the crowd's delight. Aksana begged off and went crawling to Natalya. Natalya tagged in but fared no better initially. Layla tagged in Paige, but Paige soon ran into trouble thanks to some double-team tactics behind the referee's back. Natalya worked over Paige for a while. Finally, Paige got a hot tag to Layla. Layla cleaned house. Aksana came in, but Paige tripped her and pulled her out of the ring. Layla hit the Bombshell on Natalya and got the pin.
[ Jim's Reax: I have to say that this match gave me hope for the future of the Divas division. It was night and day from what we see on TV. The crowd was very into it, the ladies were given sufficient time, the match was paced well, and everyone executed very well. It really was a very good Divas match. Paige didn't get too much offense in, mainly playing the babyface in peril, but hopefully this is an indication that a main roster call-up is near. ]
Wade Barrett appeared on the video screens, telling us he was going to tame "The Wildcat" and take the Intercontinental Title, since Kofi Kingston was no match for the Barrett Barrage.
(4) IC champion Kofi Kingston beat Wade Barrett to retain the Intercontinental Title. Another really good match. Barrett got in a variety of offense and played the arrogant heel well. Kingston was on the receiving end most of the match, but also got in some spots. Barrett mocked Kofi's mannerisms, but Kofi made him pay. Barrett hit Winds of Change, but Kingston kicked out. Kingston hit the Boom Drop and the SOS, but Barrett kicked out of each. Finally, Kingston hit Trouble in Paradise from out of nowhere to get the pin.
Next was Randy Orton vs. Alberto Del Rio. Ricardo was allowed to stay based on the fan vote. Orton got a huge pop.
(5) Randy Orton defeated Alberto Del Rio (w/Ricardo Rodriguez). Match of the night. Orton was in control early and Del Rio tried to escape over the guardrail through the crowd. Orton caught him and pulled him back and Del Rio grabbed a security guard to try and prevent him from doing so. It was pretty funny, because I'm not sure the security guard knew what was going on. Del Rio gained the advantage and began working on Orton's arm, setting up for the cross arm-breaker. He applied it twice using the ropes, but obviously had to break it by the five count. He got it on another time, but Orton made it to the ropes. Ricardo got in some cheap shots. Orton went for a powerslam, but Del Rio stopped short. Orton went for the RKO, but Del Rio blocked it and hit a backstabber. Later, Orton went for the Hangman DDT, but Del Rio blocked it. Del Rio charged at Orton, but Orton side-stepped it and sent Del Rio outside through the middle rope. Del Rio made it back in the ring at nine. Orton hit the powerslam, but Del Rio kicked out. Orton hit the hangman DDT (vintage Orton!), but Del Rio kicked out. Lots of nearfalls. Del Rio went for the RKO, but Orton blocked it. Del Rio applied the cross arm-breaker again, but Orton countered. Rodriguez jumped up on the apron and grabbed Orton in the corner. Del Rio went for an enziguiri, but Orton side-stepped it and he hit Rodriguez instead. Orton hit the RKO for the pin.
[ Jim's Reax: Really good match between these two, with exciting nearfalls, even though the finish was never in doubt. Better than their PPV match a couple months back. ]
[ Intermission ]
(6) Great Khali (w/Hornswoggle) defeated David Otunga. Hornswoggle distracted Otunga early. Otunga apparently had enough and attacked Hornswoggle outside. Khali went to go aid Hornswoggle, but Otunga caught him by the leg and swung it against the ring ropes. Otunga worked the legs for a while, but eventually Khali had enough and won with a chop. After the match, Hornswoggle hit the Tadpole Splash on Otunga.
(7) Rey Mysterio & The Usos defeated 3MB. 3MB came out to all kinds of weird machinations and gyrations. McIntyre had them huddle up at the start and they discussed some sort of gameplan. After Mysterio tagged in for some early offense, 3MB isolated one of the Usos and worked him over for a while. McIntyre assured us that we wouldn't see the 619 tonight. Eventually, a hot tag was made to Mysterio. The Usos superkicked Mahal and McIntyre to the outside. Despite McIntyre's earlier assurances, we did in fact see the 619 on Slater. That led him into a double superkick by the Usos, and then Mysterio "dropped the dime" (as Michael Cole would say) for the pin.
Next was the main event of Sheamus vs. Big Show for the World Title. Big Show came out to a mixture of cheers and boos. Some people were cheering him because he is from South Carolina. Sheamus came out to a large pop.
(8) Sheamus beat World Hvt. champion Big Show via DQ; Show retained the World Title. Sheamus tested the Big Show's strength early, to no effect. Big Show went outside the ring. Sheamus followed him, but got shoulder-blocked when he came back in. Big Show hit some chops. Sheamus hit about five clubbing blows before Show blocked them. Sheamus went for a battering ram, but got caught. Big Show went for a chokeslam, but Sheamus blocked it. Sheamus hit White Noise, but couldn't get the pin. Sheamus went for the Brogue Kick, but Big Show pulled the ref in front of him. Sheamus managed to hit the brakes before he hit the ref. Big Show then shoved the ref down, resulting in a DQ. Cheap finish, even by house show standards/
Post-match, Big Show retrieved a chair from outside the ring and went to hit Sheamus with it, but Sheamus blocked it. Sheamus hit Show with the chair and then hit the Brogue Kick. Sheamus celebrated with the fans while Show lay in the ring selling the effects of the Brogue Kick. Chimel thanked us all for coming. After about ten minutes, Show finally got up and Chimel announced that he was still the World Heavyweight Champion.
Overall, a strong show. Had a great time.
Biggest Pops:
- Orton
- Sheamus
- Mysterio
- Kingston
- The Miz
Biggest Heat:
- Sandow
- Barrett
- Big Show
- Del Rio
- Natalya

SI Prizm MFrame - Oakley
Oakley Standard Issue has developed an array of contrast enhanced Prizm lenses...
Which brings me back to the caliber debate and leads us into this discussion of the FNH USA SCAR 17S, a .308 caliber patrol rifle. There are agencies and jurisdictions where the extra range and penetration of the .308 rifle is a necessity.
Fortunately, law enforcement and university staff and administrators had undergone training, had good working relationships with each other, as well as with other agencies, had appropriate plans, had a layered mass notification system and had a trained student population that was prepared to respond appropriately.
Prepare yourself for cold weather with these jackets for duty.
LCOA Composites has harnessed its experience creating military vehicle armor and deployable ballistic shelters to develop new DeadStop lightweight police shield technology. The company's ported lightweight Level IIIA shield weighs less than 14 pounds so it can be held with one hand.
This month, you're receiving an enhanced "Shots Fired" from POLICE Magazine. In addition to the usual gripping storytelling, we've also embedded links to the radio dispatch traffic, overhead thermal-image view from the helicopter and photos from the crime scene. Enjoy.
Things are not technologically stagnant in the SWAT community. New versions of the tried and true, as well as innovative uses of modern mechanisms, simultaneously bring SWAT teams closer to suspects in the safest way possible and bring situations to safer conclusions.
This is about an alternative to a .308 for those snipers who will likely never even see a 100-yard deployment and do not need the overpenetration or down range effect. I believe the 6.8 SPC is that alternative.
Every officer should have a minimum amount of medical equipment as well as training to use the equipment. As I have stated at POLICE-TREXPO in some of my presentations, my dream is for a small kit with the essentials to appear on the belt or in a pocket of every LEO.
Today, protective eyewear is a must have for both law enforcement and military personnel, and you have a lot of makes and styles to choose from. Let's take a look at some of the latest duty eyewear.
Polo shirts and tac pants can take you to the range and beyond in style and comfort.

"The bill addresses the issue of families who have been separated through deportation. Undocumented immigrants who had been deported for non-criminal reasons but who had been in the U.S. before the end of 2011 can reapply to re-enter and apply for RPI status, if they are the spouse of or parent to a child who is a U.S. citizen or legal resident, or a Dreamer eligible for the DREAM Act." THIS MEANS MY FAMILY CAN ONCE AND FOR ALL BE REUNITED, I COULD CRY.
"Americans became increasingly believed that deportation, initially imagined for the
despised and dangerous classes, was undemocratic and unjust when applied to ordinary immigrants with homes and families in the United States.
"Hence, during the
1930's and early 1940's statutory and administrative reforms attempted to ease the tension between sovereignty and democracy that immigration policy created"
Family values and environmentalist views of morality paved the way for reform…"
And while it's very nice that we're seeing the first progress on the issue since 2007, it's a little unsettling that the senators are okay with treating immigrants a way they'd never treat their voters. Major elements of the agreement include:
Raise taxes on lower-income people. The deal would require illegal immigrants to pay a fine. This is like a tax on citizenship. Republicans are opposed to any new tax increases. Democrats want to raise taxes and close loopholes only for people making more than a middle-class salary, which congressional Democrats have defined as making more than $500,000 a year. The proposal would also require illegal immigrants to file federal income taxes for their time in the U.S. But many illegal immigrants already pay payroll taxes, and some file federal income tax returns. This resulted in a mini-scandal, because some of those illegal immigrants made so little money they qualified for the child tax credit and got a refund. In February, House Republicans passed a bill that would prevent illegal immigrants from getting the child tax credit. This means they're raising their taxes.
I just met Jose Antonio Vargas. One of my biggest inspirations. I am still in awe—but unfortunately I've to return to reality and do my homework.
There were just so many things that he mentioned that I fell in love with, perhaps because they touched on so many personal issues. Mixed status families. I guess I had never realized that I belonged to a mixed status family. About community. About opportunity and dreams. This is what America is about. This is what I am about. This is how I define American, with my story, my dreams, and my family. We are America.
Aqui se respira lucha.
1) "Contingent upon our success in securing our borders and addressing visa overstays."
2) "Our legislation also recognizes that the circumstances and the conduct of people without lawful status are not the same, and cannot be addressed identically."
3) "Our new immigration system must be more focused on recognizing the important characteristics which will help build the American economy and strengthen American families."
4) "Our immigration proposal will award a green card to immigrants who have received a PhD or Master's degree in science, technology, engineering or math from an American university."
5) "Our proposal will provide businesses with the ability to hire lower-skilled workers in a timely manner when Americans are unavailable or unwilling to fill those jobs."
immigration laws. Among other things, that would include an eventual path to citizenship for most of the nation's undocumented immigrants.
So how many people would that affect? At the moment, there are roughly 11.1 million undocumented immigrants residing in the United States. Yet it's worth noting that this number has dropped sharply during the recession, as this chart from Pew Research Center shows:
"Our journey is not complete until we find a better way to welcome the striving, hopeful immigrants who still see America as a land of opportunity; until bright young students and engineers are enlisted in our workforce rather than expelled from our country."-President Obama 1/21/13
"The policy is, I guess, intended to weigh in on illegal immigration and I'm against illegal immigration as well, but I don't see this furthering the cause in any way whatsoever," Vander Linden says. "On the other hand, it's potentially putting unlicensed, uninsured drivers on the road and I don't understand the motivation from the Department of Transportation."

For too long Washington has pushed immigration reform off until the next election. Too often, the issue is punted to the next Congress. Now is the time for us to say enough is enough. When we reform our broken immigration system, we will not only restore the most basic of American covenants, we will give this economy a much needed shot in the arm.
When the head of a household becomes a citizen, family income rises almost 14 percent on average. For the 11 million undocumented immigrants in the U.S. that would generate over $1.5 trillion in the next decade. And for the federal government that would mean $4.5 billion in new tax revenue over the next three years alone.

President Obama and leaders in Congress are vowing to pass immigration reform in 2013, but getting a bill to pass the House and Senate will be extremely difficult.
Tuesday's election has significantly improved the prospects of immigration reform, which hasn't come close to becoming law since George W. Bush's administration.
The following is The Hill's list of 10 players to watch on immigration reform.
President Obama. Even before he was elected to a second term, Obama had already been laying the groundwork for immigration reform. Over the summer, he issued a new directive protecting immigrants who came to the country illegally from being deported provided they meet certain criteria. After failing to pass a bill in his first four years, Obama said that immigration reform would be one of the highest priorities of his second term. But will he push a comprehensive approach, or a scaled-down version of the measure, such as the Development, Relief and Education for Alien Minors (DREAM) Act?
Rep. Bob Goodlatte (R-Va.). Goodlatte is considered the favorite to be the new chairman of the House Judiciary Committee, which has jurisdiction on immigration. In 2011, he introduced legislation to get rid of the immigrant visa lottery program. He has been a vocal critic of the DREAM Act. Speaker John Boehner (R-Ohio) this week has opened the door to passing immigration reform, attracting criticism from conservatives.
Recognizing the inevitable, Speaker of the House John Boehner endorsed comprehensive immigration reform on Thursday noting "I think a comprehensive approach is long overdue, and I'm confident that the president, myself, others, can find the common ground to take care of this issue once and for all."
Speaker Boehner is not alone, as conservative politicians and strategists acknowledge what has been evident for a long, long time—the failure to address immigration reform has broken out of its political box, becoming a litmus test for compassion among many key voting demographics—Latinos, women, young people. Columnist George Will attributed Mitt Romney's defeat to his embrace of self-deportation, and many commentators firmly opposed to immigration reform for years are finally getting religion on the subject. Fox News Commentator Sean Hannitysaid, after the election, that he has "evolved" on immigration and supports a "pathway to citizenship."
What does it all mean?
Read More:
In 2011, Immigration and Customs Enforcement removed 396,906 people from the United States, the highest number in the agency's history. In 2007, the figure was 291,070, for example.
There are an estimated 11 million people believed to be in the U.S. illegally. U.S. Department of Homeland Security officials have said they have only enough manpower and resources to remove about 400,000 each year, and they have prioritized their work to focus resources on removing people with criminal records.

Another Pit Bull Attacks!
Guest blooger Angela: It seems like every week there's another story of a pit bull killing or mauling someone -- and it's usually a kid. Recently, I read about one pit eating off a baby's testicles, and another gnawing off a child's toes. I mean, can you imagine? Domesticated dogs aren't supposed to do this! Well, the list of pit bull-caused injuries has grown again -- and this time, it has hit closer to home.
My daughter's friend, Sam, 8, was just viciously attacked by her friend's pit bull. Apparently she was just standing there when this dog suddenly grabbed her, dragged her into the backyard, shook her like a rag doll and fractured her femur. Sam is a slight little girl, too -- teeny for her age. I'm sure the dog weighed more than she does. Honestly, I don't know how she made it out alive. If you could see her, you wouldn't think she'd be able to survive the wind blowing her down.
Anyway, she was taken to the hospital, but no charges were filed against the dog's owners because the two families are good friends. The animal is still there in the house, too. Unbelieveable. If that were my dog, I'd have had it put down immediately, no questions asked. And if it were my kid who'd been hurt, I'd demand it. If you own a pit bull, it's not a question of if it's going to attack, but of when. There are just too many cases to assume otherwise. (Go ahead and Google "pit bull attacks on children" and see how many hits you get.)
I already know what kind of comments this post will get: "It's not the dog, it's the owner"; "Not ALL pit bulls are bad"; "Any dog can attack a child ...." Blah, blah, blah, whatever. I don't recall the last time a LABRADOODLE ate off a baby's testicles, broke an 8-year-old girl's leg or killed someone. Get real! Pit-bull owners are fools if they think their dogs don't have it in them to kill. Even if you think yours is the most gentle and sweetest of pooches, you still cannot ignore the fact that these dogs are bred to be aggressive. It's in their nature to attack.
How many people have to get harmed (or killed) before it's illegal for these dogs to be around children?
BSL is a flawed concept from the moment it is conceived. In most cases the dogs are targeted leaving the owner, which is the responsible, rational thinking party, out of it.
Some impose fines along with their laws but are often not enforced to the maximum so the owner gets away with a slap on the wrist.
Dogs are not the problem and BSL does not recognize this. People are the problem and until we find a way to punish people for their neglectful actions which allow dogs to bite and terrorize the public we will never stop the problem.
First problem is, take one breed away, these people will find another breed to replace it.
Since the APBT bans the Rottweiler is now on the rise as the most popular breed.
Now these dogs are taking heat from the general public and the BSL supporters. Again they are restricting the dogs and not the people.
BSL can be compared to gender profiling or racial profiling. Simply because a dog appears to be a dog on the restricted list it is treated as one.
What if you were driving down the road and the police took you to jail, sentenced you, and placed you on death row just for looking like a certain ethnic group? BSL does exactly that to dogs.
So why is it then that more BSL laws are implemented daily? God forbid a person have to take responsibility for their irresponsible actions and BSL supports these people by not placing very harsh punishments on them.
I see a lot of things on here that are completely false, and it amazes me that people can really be this ignorrant. If you feel you need to say something against the pit bull type breeds, than educate yourself thoroughly first. First lesson… Pit bull is not a breed, but rather it's a generic term often used to describe all dogs with similar traits and characteristics. Much of your beliefs stem from hearsay and news articles, and maybe a few very biased web sites. Those are terrible sources of education, and you wouldn't educate your children that way, so spare yourselves that grief as well. When you really educate yourselves on these dogs you will find out that media has over-hyped it, banning the breed would make these breeds more appealing to criminals, they are one of the best dogs around children, no dog is born vicious, most stats are biased, and it's almost always an irresponsible owner. Any dog can attack, and any dog of large proportion will naturally do more damage than a smaller dogs… common logic. The stats for these breeds are over-inflated, and many times when a pit bull is blamed, it's not verified, but the article prints "Pit Bull Attack" anyway. This naturally makes people think these dogs attack more aggressive or vicious than other breeds, but it's simply not true. Also, being that pit bulls make up around 10 different breeds, give or take depending on one's definition, is it right that they roll them together into one breed for statistical purposes? Don't know about you, but when I took stats, this was called abiased or unrelieable statistic. Now I know that some of you will fire back without knowing the facts, but you are the know-it-alls who I feel sorry for, because you believe things without knowing the facts. Plus, myself and all of the other people that have it right about pit bulls will laugh at your sheer ignorrance. The thing is too, once you start finding out the real truth about these dogs, they may start appealing to you if you love dogs, and you may end up getting one, because some of these pit bull type breeds are the most loyal and smartest breeds out there. I personally think that anyone that has it out for one breed, or a specific breed type has no clue what they are talking about, and they are actually the real threat to society. Let's just ban cars, guns, bars, resturaunts as well. Beause automobile accidents, criminals, alcohol, and food are responsible for less death and injuries than pit bulls.
No regarding the blog/article. This person has no idea what they are talking about. If you want the facts, ask a professional. I bet this person that wrote this blog has zero experience with the pit bull breeds, therefore has no right in spewing the nonsense she said. Would you let a day trader convince you to purchase a thousand shares of a $300 stock, or would you rather take your business to an educated, experienced financial advisor? If you have a dog or a cat, and you are wondering about whether all this hype about pits are true, just ask your vet the next time you take fluffy in for her annual check up and shots.
i have to say that i think this article is a load of bull. how can u blame a dog when you dont even know how the dog was raised or anything about the dog. where you there when it happened?? no and do u know what the child was doing to the dog before it attacked her?? no. was the parents watching their child while it was around the pit? obviously not. i own two pitbulls, one of which is three years old and the most laid back loving dog i have ever seen in my life. he loves me and my husband and he has never even so much as growled at another human. when he was a puppy my husband spanked him for not minding and taught him how to act. i strongly believe that it is the owner of the dog that causes the attacks and not the dog itself… and i also believe that parents should know better than to leave their child alone with any animal especially a full grown big dog… i really get sick of people placing the blame on something that cant speak for themselves….
Nobody in life gets exactly what they thought they were going to get. But if you work really hard and youâre kind, amazing things will happen.
I have a 4 month old baby girl who is the light of my life.
6 months before she was born I got a male blue pit bull.
He is the sweetest & most kindest lil guy on the planet.
He lays in the floor with my 4 month old all the time & I feel perfectly safe letting him be around her.
as I am a single mother & he takes care of us.
He has the temperament of a KITTEN!
It is very small minded & frankly right out DUMB to blame a breed!
Pit bulls have a better track record than golden retrievers in temperament testing studies!
I am in vet. med. school at the moment & have followed the facts closely.
It's the OWNER, not the dog.
You say they are bred for aggression? HA! you can breed many traits into a dog, but being a vicious killer isn't one of them.
With the love & support of a loving family pit bulls are loyal like no other.
It's usually very uneducated people who think otherwise.
& as for children getting attacked, its the PARENTS fault! not the dog.
Parents need to watch their kids better!
If you're going to ban Pitbulls, u might as well ban cars. Pitbulls are just one breed of dog. Before Pitbulls they wanted to ban, Doberman Pinscher, German Shepherd, and Rottweiler breeds. If they ban Pitbulls, People will find another breed of dog and then those dogs will get banned and it will go on and on. For a long time Pitbulls have been known for their loyalty, strength, versatility, bravery, and intellegiance. Pitbulls are even used as therepy and guide dogs. Don't blame the breed, blame the owners.

I have been searching the WWW for such info and i wanted to say thanks to you for this post. Also, just off topic, where can i find a copy of this theme? â 10x
Better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to speak out and remove all doubt.
Some genuinely fantastic content on this site,appreciate it for contribution.
There's no better resolution than to buy an essays if university students are in a hard situation because of essays creating. So, it is smarter to do it and dismiss papers writing difficulties.
There are some advices about the way to get the great degree. So, students just need get know the outcome and complete the best europe essay. The another way is to search for the reliable essays writing service and buy term paper in web. I hope this helps some students.
Kelsey, your remark was not very thought out. I did not understand what you were getting at? Pit bulls were not bred to kill people, they were bred to be dog aggressive for dog vs dog combat. Cuz if the dog bit a handler while in the fighting ring, they either were executed or not bred.
If Yorkies were bred to kill an adult person, being about 6 lbs isn't going help them succeed in that. Now, if being 80 lbs, and human aggressive, it mostly kill. Pit bulls, dog aggressive, human friendly. Yorkies, nippy lil' suckers. Lol
This is not very easy to cope with two things one at time, especially when you have to compose the term research paper. The only essay writing services will deal even with complicated assignments.
When you have a chance to utilize the essays order service, don't hesitate, purchase term papers and take a rest.
i really enjoy people who are narrow minded and very ignorent im 20 years old 2 kids and a wife and a blue nose pit named luned i stole her from some people who were training her to fight, this dog is a blessing, id die b4 anybody harmed her so to all u na sayers nothin i say will ever change ur mind so i wanna say this go f yourselfs n if anybody touches my dog ill beat them half to death
Always bear in mind that your own resolution to succeed is more important than any one thing.

Tyler covered why it was horrible to require progression through the tiers pretty well. The problem was that it made a huge pyramid with literally 1 or 2 guilds at the top that actually get to complete the final bit of content (nax) on each server. Heck, I'm pretty sure some server never even had a single guild make it that far.
As he mentioned it was almost impossible for a guild to actually progress through the tiers as a guild. You'd end up with people leaving to jump to another guild that was already on the next tier so that their personal progression could continue because they'd finished with the tier your guild was on but the rest of the guild wasn't ready to progress yet. This would end up happening all the way up the chain to the top guild or two where there was no more up to go. Even when a new expansion came out it was hard because you'd become a "feeder guild" as soon as you started falling behind someone else and that first couple people left. It really was a cycle that once it got started was really hard to break.
For the people who did try to stick around with their guild because they felt some connection or responsibility you had lots of burn out from doing the same content over and over and over again. Think of how interested you were in ICC by the time Cata came out. Now imagine that rather than being the final raid that you've done to death that it was the first raid tier and this whole time you've been wanting to get to the next tier but never can because you can't keep enough people around long enough to gear the guild out to the point where that is possible.
Now granted this was in the era of 40 man raids so you had a lot larger roster to maintain and it definitely made these issues worse. A 10 man raid would have a better shot of actually progressing through tiers now but it also means that loosing 1 or 2 people is that much more damaging and it is harder to replace them or maintain a solid bench.
Having raided molten core with a guild in vanilla wow and started to progress into BWL with that guild (downed a boss or two as a guild altho I missed most of the BWL runs) I know the frustration described first hand and it sucked. I ended up quitting the guild when they put in a horrible DKP system and it ended up dying a month or two later after it's progression had not only stopped but regressed to the point of being unable to clear MC. Ultimately, I don't think it was the DKP system that killed the guild because they were still struggling with all the issues mentioned it just served as the straw that broke the camels back.
For blizzard this ends up being unacceptable for two reasons.
1) It really does make raiding a horrible experience for most people.
2) It means they spend a lot of effort on a lot of cool content that very few people get to see so has very poor returns.

The film that introduced Ingrid Bergman to an adoring American public, Intermezzo is pure, old-fashioned melodrama. Were it to be attempted today, the result would be pure schmaltz, but Intermezzo succeeds because its creators seem to believe in its story, and therefore make the audience care about it too. They also know that this kind of story works best if the viewer doesn't have time to think too carefully as he or she is watching it, and so they keep it to an incredibly brief 70 minutes. Director Gregory Ratoff keeps the pacing swift and turns in some of his best work here. He is helped immeasurably, of course, by Bergman. Radiant, exuberant, and totally mesmerizing, Bergman combines stunning beauty and dramatic intelligence with an intuitive sense of "movie star" acting, to give a performance that is a pleasure to watch. She practically glows in every scene, her joy in simply appearing onscreen coming through in every frame. Leslie Howard has a hard time keeping up with her, and on the whole, his performance is rather perfunctory; however, there is a chemistry between the two stars and that makes up for his otherwise bland portrayal. Bergman's career stalled somewhat after Intermezzo, with several films that didn't capitalize on her unique talents, but it was jump-started again in 1942 with Casablanca.

[in response to this article][originally posted on fb 11/11/13]
i've been frustrated with how oakland is trampled on by activists and queers and out-of-towners and this article sort of just threw me over the edge.
first of all, hooray for places that people can feel free to b queer! ~hurrah~
calling oakland "an affordable alternative to San Francisco" is totally overlooking the reasons WHY oakland is "affordable" and toward whom that affordability is directed.
quick stats on oakland:
-one of the most ethnically diverse cities in the country
-also one of the most racially integrated cities in the country (in selective neighborhoods)
-most same-sex couples per capita
-city with one of the highest homicide rates in the country (131 homicides in 2012)
-18.5% of the population is below the poverty line (1 in 5)
-white is a minority race (to black)
-location of city slicker farms, the book that launched urban ag activists into west oakland
and, for those of us in college:
-48/100 students will graduate from high school (http://www.sfgate.com/education/article/Study-puts-Oakland-dropout-rate-at-52-Mayor-2687984.php)
-african american males are "almost as likely to be killed as they are to graduate [high school]" (http://www.sfchronicle.com/local/bayarea/item/Even-Odds-Day-2-23198.php)
let's be real right now. oakland is an arts & culture city, broke, with more crime than college graduates. it is a city of struggle and strife and that's what makes it beautiful.
so many oakland residents are being displaced by the academic transplants that have the privilege of a college diploma (which is, like, 100x the privilege of a high school diploma). queer, environmental justice, economic justice, and art activists have unconsciously gentrified oakland. this means having the privilege of affording what generations of residents have struggled to afford. this means a neocolonialist movement into a city that is akin to the colonialist history of movement in other countries where activism is the sword from which the locals fall. this means having the privilege of vocabulary like 'privilege' and 'gentrification' and 'heteronormativity' etc etc without the accountability of practicing that vocabulary or understanding that these words grant transplants a privilege that is not as accessible to a lot of people in oakland. this means appropriating the struggle (i.e. activism) of others whose history is unique to its location where transplants have not experienced first-hand the actual, non-academically portrayed, real-fucking-life struggles of the residents.
before you move somewhere because it's cool to be a part of a struggle, please please please be conscious of whose place you are taking in that struggle.

With the web being increasingly important for purchasers to find training providers, use of the web is critical to many training providers.
Over the past 3 years I have been developing and using web search engine optimisation (SEO) techniques to get my business seen on the net. Recently I was asked to present a session at the TrainerBase conference on this topic. As a result I have been asked to put together a jargon free workshop helping typical trainers improve their web profile.
With this in mind I have developed a process called get seen on the web - a one day programme with practical activities to raise you profile and tap into the work available.
For more information see http://www.getseenontheweb.co.uk/
This one day programme is suitable for Trainers, Consultants and other freelancers, or anyone that wants to establish or develop their NetRep (interNET REPutation).

Two Design Strategies for Kids' Bathrooms
So you have a second bathroom which you'd like to make over for your kids - do you make it especially kid-friendly to appeal to them or keep it more sophisticated to blend in with the rest of your home? These homeowners took different tacks with their kid bathroom design.
Jen and Rob who have two young sons (and whose full house tour you can see on Apartment Therapy Boston) kept it classic with white walls, minimal color and antique nautical prints.
A mom in Atlanta went with a bolder, brighter palette and pop-art accessories for her children's bathroom makeover. It's surely a fun spot for them to be although may need an update as they get older.
As for us, we're just coping with sharing a tiny bathroom with our child so this is not a design dilemma we anticipate having any time soon!
(Images 1& 2: Jen & Rob; Images 3 & 4: Drea)
2 Comments
We have but one full bath to share with our four girls and I've let that room be my outlet for bright colors, lots of florals and silliness. It doesn't jive AT ALL with the rest of my home's decor (fairly austere MCM meets colonial), but we all love it.
We have one full bath and there is also a half bathroom off of our children's room. It's so tiny that we haven't done a thing to it - just white walls, a sink, a toilet, and a little shelf for toothbrushes and soap. We've put more care into the rest of the house, but it seems like our bathrooms get almost no decorating attention.
