Most years, the aspen on the north side of the Sneffels Range are at peak color by the last week in September. This year proved to be an exception, and although the trees around Red Mountain were at peak (see my previous post), most of the trees around Ridgway were still green during my visit. Despite that, I still enjoyed exploring the mining roads in the area, as this was my first visit in a four wheel drive vehicle that allowed me to go further up into the mountains than during my previous trips. The spot above is on Co road 7, which is accessed off of CO Highway 62.
This is the view of the Sneffels Range from beside the visitors center at Ridgway State Park, which was where I camped in the back of my pickup during most of my trip. The good facilities there, especially the electric hookups, were greatly appreciated on nights when the temperature dropped well below freezing, and there was heavy frost. A combination of sleeping bags, electric blanket, and small electric heater kept me warm under my camper shell on those cold nights.

Keep Your Immigration Status CurrentThursday, October 10th, 2013
Have you considered spending time living and working in a foreign country, but wonder where to begin? Australia is a country described as a country so beautiful to visit, that many hate to leave. So how does one go about this? It is not difficult but does require planning.
Temporarily Working And Living In Australia
Professional and skilled workers from other countries are welcome to work temporarily in Australia. People have to follow that country's immigration rules in order to stay in compliance. Visit VisaPro's to find out more about immigration.
Here are worker types Australia recognizes:
• Employer Sponsored Workers-people with specialized skills who are sponsored to work here by overseas or Australian employers.
• Skilled Migrants and other professionals-also referred to as the General Migration Program. Designed for highly skilled people not sponsored by an employer.
• Business people-meant for business owners who would like to open a branch in Australia or start a new business. Managing another business or investing in the country is another option.
• SkillSelect-an online system that enables skilled workers to apply for a visa by an Expression Of Interest (EOI).
• Temporary Work and Specialist Entry-people who participate in certain cultural, professional, or social activities in Australia.
• Doctors and Nurses-medical professionals that wish to sharing medical skills in this country.
• Regional Employment-skilled workers willing to work in cities outside the major cities.
• Skills Australia Needs Events-meets skill shortages of the country by temporarily hiring workers for state and territory jobs. Some are sponsored.
• Air and Sea Crew-visas for people with these skills transferring them to this country.
• Seasonal Worker Program-areas of the country like New Guinea and Solomon Islands use workers for short periods of time each year.
Australian Immigration Rights
Defined rights are given to immigrants living in Australia. Workers from other countries are granted the same protections and entitlements as citizens. Every worker is required to possess a temporary work visa. Employers verify workers visas are current and have not expired. They are authorized to check passports or other identification, but are not allowed to cancel, grant, or refuse visas.
Only the Department of Immigration and Citizenship (DIAC) officials may cancel, refuse, or grant visas to workers. When non-citizens hold subclass 457 visas, sponsoring employers ensure workers have equal conditions as citizens. Overseas workers can only be employed in jobs that apply to the same skilled occupation, in their home country. Employers also are not allowed to pay the workers in cash. Workers can only work for one Australian company at a time.
These and other workers rights and rules can be found online. Being armed with the proper guidelines and keeping visa current will help you work and enjoy life down under.

What is this? For a blaster?
Is a real time voice amplifier and voice changer with 8 random automatic static burst effects, you can distort the voice and it works for Boba Fett to Troopers.
How do you connect a mic to it? I assume those two wires are the input/output? So you would still need an amp box?
Do you have audio samples?
These r ace for TKs, ive got 1.
theres an amp built into thé board so alls thatd needed is a mic n speaker.
Highly recommended.
Love mine.

Joselinne Rivera-Ruiz, whose daughter's brutal murder made national headlines in December and , was arrested on Monday.
According to a incident report released today, officers were called to the Walden Crossing Apartments just before 7 p.m. Monday in reference to a domestic dispute between Rivera-Ruiz and her partner, Maria Estela Americano.
When police arrived, they noticed bruises and scratches on both women.
Rivera-Ruiz's left eye was bruised and discolored. Her neck was scratched. Her shirt had several blood stains. And a red mark stretched across her right knuckle.
Maria Americano was bleeding from her right pinky, and had scratches on her right hand as well as a large bruise on the left side of her throat.
"I asked Maria how she had obtained the injuries and she told me that she had tried to leave the apartment but that her partner would not let her and that her partner started hitting her," an officer wrote in the incident report. "Maria further stated that she then "popped" her in the eye."
Rivera-Ruiz told police that she grabbed Americano and held her down, but that was it. She attributed her own bruises to an accident. She said that she tripped and hit her head on the corner of a piece of furniture.
Rivera-Ruiz said there was no physical altercation between her and Americano.
But Americano's daughter said that account wasn't true. While she didn't observe the fight, she said Rivera-Ruiz's children, a 1-year-old and a 4-year-old, did.
"Josephine (Americano) advised me that her mother and her mother's partner had been in a physical fight and that she had locked herself and (Rivera-Ruiz's) children in the bedroom and called 911," an officer wrote in the report.
Josephine Americano said it wasn't the first time that her mother and Rivera-Ruiz had fought. She told Canton Police that similar incidents had taken place at least a couple of times in the past.
Rivera-Ruiz and Maria Americano, who both reside in the Canton apartment community with their children, were each charged with battery under the Family Violence Act and cruelty to children in the third degree, according to the report.
Both women are being held at the , said Lt. Jay Baker, spokesman for the .
Rivera-Ruiz's children are in her aunt's care. The has been notified of the incident.
Rivera-Ruiz made headlines earlier this month when .

MILWAUKEE, Wis. (WTAQ) - Three members of a former Milwaukee family have pleaded not guilty to stealing almost $4 million.
Prosecutors said 64-year-old Archie Cabello and his 39-year-old son Vincent staged robberies at armored car companies where they worked over the last 15 years. They and Archie's 58-year-old wife Marian are accused of using false names to get credit cards and money orders to try and hide the money stolen in the robberies.
Authorities said they used part of the cash on a Hummer and various living expenses. And they allegedly filed false tax returns for several years, listing their annual incomes as low as $10,000.
Officials said one of the staged hold-ups occurred in 1995, when $158,000 was stolen from a Dunbar vehicle. Three years later, $730,000 were taken from a vault during a holdup at Milwaukee's American Security Corporation. And another $3 million was lifted in a 2005 heist in Portland Oregon, six years after the family had moved there.
That was the first time the Cabellos had been considered as suspects. Assistant U.S. Attorney Claire Fay uncovered their alleged scheme, including the 2 prior Milwaukee holdups. The Cabellos were freed after their plea hearings this week in Portland. But Archie and Vincent Cabello must wear monitoring devices.

About 20 years ago, I saw this modest, low-key film and remembered it so fondly that I tuned in the other day to IFC and watched it again, as I rarely do with movies. But I'm glad I did because it's an absolutely lovely travelogue of the sometimes rough terrain of the lives of a group of older women who settle into an idyllic spot after their tour bus runs down. Watching it is a little like, depending on your age, listening to your mom or grandmother reflect on the bittersweet arc of a marriage gone bad or recall the horror of what it was like to burrow into a city under attack in a world war. Many of these women apparently spoke and acted extemporaneously, so when one tosses her pills out after gazing at the distant landscape, it's as if to say, "This is where I want to be in the end." As others perform tai chi moves in the grass or fish for food, it's clear that they truly enjoy each other's company to the degree that working together as a team is as much a pleasure for them as it is for the viewer to behold.
I think it's the perfect movie for the holidays, when so many gather for the purpose of catching up and planning for the future. See it with someone at least one generation apart. It just might spark a dialogue of your own.

This is a sweet, charming movie about characters, not about plot. I happened to see if for the first time on IFC about 15 years ago, and I've seen it several times since then. At the outset I thought a slow moving movie about a group of elderly women, with very little plot, would not ber very watchable, but I was RIVETED! As I said, this is a movie about characters, and these non-professional actors getting to know each other and sharing stories and secrets about their lives is really beautiful. The beautiful Canadian countryside and the old photos that are used are an extra bonus. This movie is the polar opposite to most of the dreck that comes out of Hollywood in recent years (frenetically paced, loud and just plain stupid).

For thousands of years, athletes have successfully used antler velvet to increase strength and endurance, improve muscle mass and reduce downtime between workouts. In fact, velvet antler has been forbidden by professional sports organizations around the globe as an unfair athletic performance booster! Just think of what this safe, all-natural supernutrient can do for you!
Superior Velvet also contains IGF-1, or Insulin-like Growth Factor – 1, which is produced in the liver following the release of HGH (Human Growth Factor). IGF-1 supports muscle development and physical performance and promotes overall health and wellbeing. Since HGH levels decrease with age, so does IGF-1, however, Superior Velvet with IGF-1 helps you turn back the clock and return to a more youthful state of being.
In this fast-paced, modern world, high stress, bad food choices and environmental pollution are the norm. All of these factors take a serious toll on immune system function and the body's ability to ward off disease and maintain good health. Superior Velvet helps support the immune system by facilitating the production of several immune cells, including B and T lymphocytes, cytokines and macrophages.
In Traditional Chinese Medicine, deer antler velvet has a long history of use for enhanced sexual health in both men and women. The abundant combination of essential amino acids and other key components are a popular form of treatment for increasing virility, enhancing libido and improving sexual function.
For centuries in Traditional Chinese Medicine, deer antler velvet has been recognized as nature's key to male fitness, health and wellbeing. Referred to as Lu-rong in China, antler velvet is an extraordinary wellness tonic that revitalizes the body, enhances sexual performance and increases physical strength and stamina. The health benefits are numerous, as this vital supernutrient also fights fatigue, boosts immunity, reduces stress and restores overall balance to the body.
Professional athletes have known about this incredible miracle substance for years, and now, deer antler velvet is gaining notoriety in modern science. A variety of clinical studies conducted throughout various parts of the world, no less than 100 medical studies, have uncovered even more uses, including cellular rejuvenation and anti-aging properties, fertility enhancement, improved muscle mass and increased libido. Deer antler velvet has also shown to prevent inflammation, lower blood pressure and protect the joints.

Dynamic cities and creative clusters
AbstractThe author focuses on how urban policies and the clustering of creative industries has influenced urban outcomes. The set of creative industries include those with output protectable under some form of intellectual property law. More specifically, this sub-sector encompasses software, multimedia, video games, industrial design, fashion, publishing, and research and development. The cities that form the basis for the empirical investigations are those where policy-induced transitions have been most evident, including Boston; San Francisco; San Diego; Seattle; Austin; Washington, D.C.; Dublin (Ireland); Hong Kong (China); and Bangalore (India). The key research questions are: 1) What types of cities are creative? 2) What locational factors are essential? 3) What are the common urban policy initiatives used by creative cities? The author explores the importance of the external environment for innovation and places it in the larger context of national innovation systems. Based on a study of development in Boston and San Diego, he isolates the factors and policies that have contributed to the local clustering of particular creative industries. In both cities, universities have played a major role in catalyzing the local economy by generating cutting-edge research findings, proactively collaborating with industries, and supplying the needed human capital. In addition, these two cities benefited from the existence of anchor firms and active industry associations that promoted fruitful university-industry links. Many cities in East Asia are aspiring to become the creative hubs of the region. But their investments tend to be heavily biased toward infrastructure provision. Although this is necessary, the heavy emphasis on hardware can lead to underinvestment in developing the talents and skills needed for the emergence of creative industries in these cities.

About the Pictures Image Gallery
A conceptual framework is used in research to outline possible courses of action or to present a preferred approach to an idea or thought. For example, the philosopher Isaiah Berlin used the hedgehogs versus foxes approach; a hedgehog might approach the world in terms of a single organizing principle; a fox might pursue multiple conflicting goals simultaneously. Alternatively, an empiricist might approach a subject by direct examination, whereas an intuitionist might simply intuit what's next.

Fancy a Portrait by the Doctor?
You know, Doctor Who has had a thing with portraits and paintings of the past few years. Back in 2010 the Doctor met Vincent van Gogh, who painted a monster in a church window. Later that series, we discovered that he painted an image of the TARDIS blowing up.
Since then, we've had the Doctor appearing in a portrait with no clothes on and of course there are rumours of a link to portraits with the recent recording of the 50th anniversary in central London. And only a few weeks ago we saw this:
This image of Clara – as played by the gorgeous Jenna-Louise Coleman – was painted by the Doctor as he mused over the conundrum in exile. And now you can buy it!
Available from May 26th, this canvas of the Doctor's painting of Clara can be ordered from Forbidden Planet for just £39.99.
2 Responses to Fancy a Portrait by the Doctor?
I would urge people to seek out the magnificent work of James Hansen, who's on Facebook and is the artist extraordinaire when it comes to any and all paintings involved with Doctor Who. Truly a magnificent talent.
Not surprised they'd market this great painting.

Sitting Up(Filed under: )
Lexi learned to sit up last week. For the past few weeks or so she's been able to hold herself up if she was leaning against something, but would slowly slump foreward or to the side. Last week she figured out how to keep her balance and stay sitting up without any help. She's loving it because she can now sit and reach for toys, play with things, read books (okay look at the pictures (okay, chew on books)).

That's the cow's thingamajig. okay?
I ate a lot of those small sweet oranges. Then I ate half of the candy I bought while Jason ate the other half. After dinner I had Cookies and Cream Icecream then David gave me a piece of his Hershey's Chocolate bar :> SWEET TOOTH.
This is what we usually do in our SOCTEC period every tuesday and thursday. Our Soctec class is always held in the big lecture room and we're about 100 students, so the prof doesn't notice what we do during the period. I'm seated in the very front. We doodle our names on a 3x5 index card for our name tags. I take pictures of everything I see in the lecture room, including some of my classmates and our prof. And we eat! I still can't believe we ate ice cream during class time
Sunday is always our family day. Just today I noticed that my mom and dad's sides of the family is very similar. In my mom's side adults always drink coffee while in my dad's they drink tea. In my mom's side we always watch Pacquiao's games and in my Dad's side we watch tennis. But in my mom's side I have to act as the Ate because all my older cousins are in the states now and in my dad's i can act goofy :))
This morning I was looking at my TWO-FIVE pictures, I miss my two-five family :(. These pictures are from that exposure trip during PALIHAN. I noticed that I was
thin back then. Diet na ako from now on, promise. hahaha :))
I miss Ate Carla. She has loooooong hair now, super hindi bagay :| hahahaha
Ate Carla and I finally went to Trinoma to find clothes and gifts for Inah's debut. We were searching for super colorful dresses, skirts and tops because the theme for the debut is kind of a chocolate factory, like Willy Wonka's hahaha. We were window shopping from 4-10 pm! I couldn't find a nice dress but I found the perfect skirt, all I need now is a pair of shoes and a top.
I still can't decide on what to give Inah. We've been friends for like 7 years and her favorite is mickey mouse, nike watches and some cool-weird stuff. I'm planning on giving her some super girly stuff kasi lady na siya ;"> :))
LASARE1 today. Our facilitator didn't want me to take pictures during the sessions :| It was boring/fun. Boring because of the lectures and stuff and fun because of the games and the role playing :)
To sum it up one word.. HELL. I got so pissed that I cried today at school. After our lad class I found out that I got a different date for my LASARE (my block's LASARE N01 is tomorrow) so that meant that I wasn't going to be with my blockmates for our recollection. My friend and I went to the vice dean to change my section then we found out that my block's section was already full and that I have to stay with my present section. I was already begging the sec. of the vice dean and the one who fixed the sections to change my section :| and she said "Iha, wala na talagang magagawa okay? Dun ka na talaga sa section mo." Ang taray pa niya :(
To cheer my up my friend decided that we should just skip SOCTEC, so she dragged me to KFC. While we were eating I accidentally cried! then I saw Metch, okay, I miss her na :)) Then my college best friend told me that I was on the LASARE N01 list so my friend and I went back to the Vice Dean to check the list. I asked the secretary if I am really in the N01 list then she said yes, oo. OHMYGOSH I wanted to torture/kill her! She didn't even bother to check the list in the first place. I wasted my time worrying, pissed and sad instead of enjoying my precious break.
After that, we celebrated in Starbucks. I got Java Chip, my new favorite :> Then I had my lunch-date with my friends. :) LASARE TOMORROW :> And my Peace sign necklace got lost today :(((

Reading materials
When Josh and I first decided we were ready to start a family we bought some baby books, a question and answer book, a nutrition guide, and an exercise and fitness guide. When we shared the news that we would in fact be parents Josh's boss gave us a baby book from Mayo Clinic. We also signed up for Parenting magazine. Our insurance company has a program for expecting mothers that provides reading materials too so we got another book from them. Oh and don't forget all the reading materials provided by the hospital. We are surrounded by books, pamphlets, magazines and guides.
Josh and I like being well informed, but boy oh boy this is a lot of books. The funny thing is that out of all these books not a one of them is written for dad. Josh is going to be a great dad and he's so interested in everything that's going on right now. He's being so helpful around the house so I can focus on my most important job building this baby and keeping her safe until her due date. He's keeping up with his phone app so he can follow along with how the baby is developing and he never misses a doctor appointment. I know there are books aimed at new dads, but I don't know the best one.
What is the best book for expecting dads?

Having murdered his wife, French aristocrat Marquis De La Roget (Max Adrian) not only manages to escape detection (the authorities are convinced that the unfortunate woman died of a mysterious illness), but even takes his partner-in-crime Charlotte (Doris Dowling) as his new bride. But all is not roses and orange blossoms for the happy couple: Before long, the Marquis is haunted by visions of his dead wife, whose image appears on a wall in the form of a large, ever-growing stain. The callous Charlotte hopes to use her husband's terror to her advantage--but plans like these always have a way of backfiring.

An obsession with quality-control. A passion for getting it right.
To produce borate treated lumber products, lumber and plywood are treated with a borate solution to ensure deep penetration. Borates (naturally occurring mineral salts) are forced into lumber through a vacuum and pressure process, leaving the finished product protected against termites—particularly the Formosan termite—as well as rot and decay.
Borate treating has been recognized for its effectiveness by the ICC-ES (International Code Council Evaluation Service), the country's most authoritative evaluation service. Most products are backed with a limited lifetime warranty. With Borate, you get professional grade every time.

Coming Out Week, one of the Diversity Celebrations Committee's annual events, is the result of hard work by many organizations, including the Gender and Sexuality Center and GLOW! (Gay, Lesbian or Whatever!). Students and faculty have collaborated to schedule various speakers and groups on campus.
The week began with a panel discussion titled "Coming Out at Olaf," in which six St. Olaf students shared their experiences with coming out in a college setting.
Stories ranged from anecdotes about miscommunication to advice for other students at St. Olaf. "Coming out isn't just a one day thing," said Seth Bresky '10, co-leader of GLOW! and member of the Gender and Sexuality Center. "It's a very long process of accepting yourself and understanding yourself."
"It is these conversations between students and within the wider Olaf community that are one of the most important successes of Coming Out Week," said Heidi Morse '08, member of the Gender and Sexuality Center.
Panel member Sean Miyamoto '08 agreed. "It's a hard process, and you have to put yourself out there," he said. "Look at the situation and judge it for yourself. If you think it's right, then it probably is."
Bresky emphasized the importance of having a safe community in which people feel comfortable discussing issues of sexuality. "Community plays a big part," he said. "Hopefully having the [Gender and Sexuality Center] house will encourage people to see St. Olaf as a place that is visibly accepting."
Organizers of the event have planned at least one coming out event per day this week. Supporters of Coming Out Week were encouraged to wear the colors of the rainbow, on Tuesday.
The Department of Social Work and Family Studies sponsored a Transgender speaker on Wednesday evening in Trollhaugen, and later that night the Lion's Pause hosted eclectic Minneapolis band ZibraZibra! whose style has been described as German electro-pop.
SOLGEN (St. Olaf Lesbian and Gay Employee Network) leader and Norwegian professor Nancy Aarsvold spoke in chapel on Thursday, followed by a coming out celebration in the Buntrock Crossroads.
On Friday at 10 a.m., a memorial vigil will take place under the wind chimes in honor of Matthew Shephard, a victim of a hate crime that took place 9 years ago.
Bresky was impressed with the number of people involved in organizing the week's events. "We have a lot more people involved in Coming Out Week this year and a lot more people working on events," he said. "The Gender and Sexuality Center has helped increase membership because it's a comfortable place to meet."
The events are open to everyone on campus. "We want to emphasize that coming out isn't just for gay people, but for straight people and allies coming out too," Bresky said. "We focus more on people's ability to just express themselves It's about understanding yourself and your own body and making it publicly known."

Possible answers include:
Until Chief of Police Matt closes the park and says to move along.
Depends on whether you represent Occupy or are homeless.
As long as you don't harm the trees, grass, bugs, etc.
Can't be a medical support tent - people are just smoking dope there.
First complaint that you're impacting Christmas shopping and you're out of here!

well, ya gotta admit, the C was asked and, poof, here it is. Nice gesture. Although I'd rather see the real old format returned, separating topics should make the discussion better, assuming we "stay on point" somewhat.

Too bad the Occupy movement didn't or at least hasn't yet, focused on this, from economist Jeffery Sachs. Properly presented, I don't see how there would have been much resistance to their views, except for those on the receiving end of all the money.
*"The banks have said, leave us deregulated, we know how to run things, don't put government in to meddle. Then with that freedom of maneuver they took huge gambles, and even made illegal actions, and then broke the world system. As soon as that happened then they rushed out to say 'bail us out, bail us out, if you don't bail us out, we're too big to fail, you have to save us'. As soon as that happened, they said 'oh,* *don't regulate us, we know what to do'. And they almost went back to their old story, and the public is standing there, amazed, because we just bailed you out how can you be paying yourself billions of dollars of bonuses again? And the bankers say, 'well we deserve it, what's your problem'? And the problem that the Occupy Wall Street and other protesters have is: you don't deserve it, you nearly broke the system, you gamed the economy, you're paying mega fines, yet you're still in the White House you're going to the state dinners,* *you're paying yourself huge bonuses, what kind of system is this?
When I talk about this in the United States, I'm often attacked, 'oh, you don't believe in the free market economy', I say, how much free market can there be? You say deregulate, the moment the banks get in trouble, you say bail them out, the moment you bail them out, you say go back to deregulation. That's not a free market, that's a game, and we* *have to get out of the game. We have to get back to grown-up behaviour."*

Hats off to the Columbian staff for recognizing a timely news topic that will not be fading away any time soon......
I nosed around a couple of Occupy Wall Street gatherings when I was in NYC at the beginning of this month. I think this movement has significant merit and will go down in history as a force for change. Our grandchildren will be reading about it in US History.
The Masters of the Universe (we know who they are) truly expect us all to choose sides and diminish each other, poke fun of these activists so they won't have to. Don't be so quick to judge them as odd outsiders. I met well-educated, articulate people like you and me, young and old. I was impressed. I was also grateful for their stamina and tenacity. I expect them to make some wrong turns as they find their way, but I cheer them on and regret that I am too busy with other matters-of-consequence that I cannot join in more often. If I were 30 years younger, I might.
One thing that struck me visually in the Big Apple was the wide variety of "Occu-Art" that greeted me on so many vacant walls and windows. I met a person who was compiling these interesting posters and have a link to share. The list grows daily, so check back often if you are interested:
manthou — December 13, 2011 at 7:09 p.m. ( permalink | suggest removal
Is Occupy about taking control of Congress from Corporate America and returning it to The People? (Has control ever truly been with The People?) Is it about forcing change that will bring decent jobs back to this country? Is it about providing universal (meaning low cost or free) access to the education and training needed to obtain jobs? Is it about those that have paying a "fair share" in taxes? Is it about REAL universal access to affordable health care (as opposed to this farce our current administration compromised into being)?
The problem is, Occupy is about all of these things and more - depending on who you talk with and what day of the week it is. Occupy is sort of like our House with their slash and burn approach to reducing the deficit - a good idea in principle, but without clear focus and a plan that can be followed, little more than chaos.
So, as I've been saying, Occupy needs someone (a controlling group and a few designated spokespersons) in charge and a simplified message that all are on board with. Then they can be taken seriously.

roger- I think it's a stroke of genius not to define the movement. It leaves the critics blowing in the wind. One major accomplishment is that Occupy has changed the message from forced austerity to taking a progressive approach to fix our economy.

About your experience, (if you don't mind sharing) how often were people speaking to the crowd messaging, and what was the general "vibe". Realizing the diversity of people and the passion involved, it must have been an exhilarating experience. Was the police presence extreme in your opinion, and were there obvious signs of distrust with regards to the po-po's.

I disagree. KISS is best. Make me have to think about what you say, and how all the different messages tie together, and my head starts hurting. So I'll tune you out.
The Tea types have a simple message - that gov't is too big and spends too much - they need to stop spending and reduce the deficit. And then there's the second message they started hammering on later - that as long as we tax or restrict businesses, jobs won't happen. The message goes to Rush, Glen Beck, the Fox crew, et.al., and they all start repeating the message. Tell 'em often enough and people will believe anything. (Nazi Germany.)

*that gov't is too big and spends too much - they need to stop spending and reduce the deficit*
ah, the good ol' simplistic notion. if it were just that simple. the baggers should realize how much of that federal spending drives the economy.
ironic, house R's feel we need to cut federal unemploment extensions. They feel these benefits are a "disincentive" to taking lower paying jobs that may be available. so, take a million people that were making $20/hr, not getting $430/wk unemployment (my neighbor) and have them go to work for $11/hr-basically the amount of unemployment. That's $18,000/yr out of the economy per person or about $18,000,000,000/yr. Quite a chunk, especially when you consider there are a lot more people unemployed that this little example.
But, they still gave the Dept of Defense $5B increase next year for non-war expenditures.
If our representatives weren't so far in left field, there probably wouldn't be any baggers or occupiers.

mrd- "If our representatives weren't so far in left field, there probably wouldn't be any baggers or occupiers". Considering the house is heavily majored by the Republicans @
242 to 192, and given the current demographics of the house, it becomes pretty clear the Republicans lack proper representation from "the people".
I'd say our representatives are so far in *right* field, it's going to be awhile before the cows come home. :)

There were 13 Jews, one Hispanic (Bob Menendez, D-NJ) one Japanese American (Daniel Inouye, D-HI), one Native Hawaiian (Daniel Akaka, D-HI) and one African American, Roland Burris (D-IL). The average age of senators in 2007 was 62 years.[citation needed] The oldest senator was Frank Lautenberg (D-NJ), born January 23, 1924. The youngest senator was Carte Goodwin (D-WV), born February 27, 1974.
The 111th Congress included the most religiously diverse House in history, including two Muslims (Keith Ellison, D-MN and André Carson, D-IN), two Buddhists (Mazie Hirono, D-HI and Hank Johnson, D-GA), 31 Jews, one Quaker (Rush D. Holt, Jr., D-NJ) and one atheist (Pete Stark, D-CA). There were 42 African Americans (including two non-voting delegates) and 75 female representatives. There were also 27 Hispanics, six Asian Americans **(Joseph Cao, R-LA;** Judy Chu, D-CA; Mazie Hirono, D-HI; Michael Honda, D-CA; Doris Matsui, D-CA; and David Wu, D-OR), and one Native American (Tom Cole, R-OK).

"the baggers should realize how much of that federal spending drives the economy." Great point. Their general thought seems to be all spending is bad.

Here's something we all might be able to embrace together (even though it is insanely early in the morning for me): an end to the concept of "corporate personhood." The Occupy movement has helped draw attention to this important focused spinoff: Get The Money Out
It will take a constitutional amendment to repair the damage done to the citizens by the Supreme Court when they determined that corporations are people, but the idea is gaining supporters by the day.
LA County has passed a resolution against corporate personhood, which is largely symbolic, of course. I hope more counties jump on this bandwagon.
Can you envision Stuart, Boldt, and Mielke agreeing to this? It may save their political bacon, if so.

I really wasn't trying to put a political slant on which part of the outfield those folks are in, just the fact they're out there.
The good news is the race to the bottom may be about over, and it looks as though the US should be near first place. A new census study reveals 1 in 2 of us are now "poor" according to federal standards. As the R's push to slash more social safety nets, a high-albeit low-finish looks promising.

I believe the vote on the Defense Appropriation ......whatever is tomorrow. Please follow our representatives to see how they vote. Also note, if Obama does NOT veto it, as a constitutional lawyer, the man simply does not deserve 4 more years. As bad as the GOP'ers are, he ain't exactly better than those re-treads and dogs. Why are the D's stuck with this joker? I'd prefer Hillary, but the D's are going to offer up Obama, a proven dud. Again, we're offered a choice with the bar set as low as possible-as if it really matters. We've won the race to the bottom, and it appears that's all that mattered in the first place. The government is now set up to make sure they have absolute control when the social upheaval occurs, and it will, so here we go. Accept the new normal, captialistic serfdom or serfdom as a guise of being free, don't make a chit of difference. Fox news will sell it as being OK, and a majority will eat it up. Maybe my tin hat is showing-I hope so. The alterntive is much scarier.

The Great Potty Debate: Follow Your Child's Lead
You can drag a kid to the potty, but you can't make him pee
Please note: This is an opinion piece and is not intended to reflect the views of BabyZone.
If I hear one more expert purport to lay out, in excruciating detail, the surefire way to potty train my resistant three-year-old child, I'm going to lose it.
Here's the back story, the story that's fueling my irrational, potty training rage: My three-year-old son Casey won't toilet train. He's the baby of the family. And although he has his two older siblings and his parents to positively role model proper peeing and pooping behavior, he won't budge.
He can pee on the potty and he does so when he thinks it will garner him the most attention, like when we're in a restaurant, a store (when we have a full grocery cart), or at an apple orchard that only has a stinky sani-can in which Casey insisted his father stay with him for nearly 15 minutes.
We've provided an ample series of positive incentives, including offering M&Ms after each success with the whole family singing (in a tune cribbed from Blue's Clues): "Casey peed in the potty. Casey peed in the potty. Casey peed in the pot—ty and that's real—ly great!" But he refuses to do so on any reliable, regular basis.
He has placed calls to family members on various occasions to tell them how he peed on the potty to much ebullient praise.
He and I picked out "cool kid" underpants with Spiderman on them. Daddy and Mommy told Casey how Spiderman is so proud of him that he's ready for big boy underpants and that Spiderman doesn't like to be peed or pooped on. Nonetheless, Spiderman got the full potty treatment. Multiple times.
We've had Casey walk around for days in just underpants, cleaned up his mistakes, and reminded him that it was time to sit on the potty. But after two or more reminders, Casey would shout, "No! No potty!" and hide in the corners of the house to do his business. The entire endeavor was a fight, from trying to chase him down and plop (or coax) him on the potty, to following him around and inquiring whether he needed to pee yet. By the end of the first day, Casey didn't even want to be in the same room with me.
No matter that we have potties and potty seat inserts in the bathrooms, as well as potty books prominently placed on the back of the toilets. It makes no difference to him. In fact, Casey will often request that we read one of the potty books we own, though he doesn't exhibit any interest in recreating the scenes in the books in his own life.
So we have backed off. We have tried to de-emphasize the subject of potty training and figure that when he's ready, he'll just do it.
Then the illustrious television psychologist, Dr. Phil McGraw, comes along with a magic potty training plan. He stirs everyone up with this so-called amazing, surefire solution for all toilet training resisters so that those of us with, shall we say, late trainers, are publicly shamed, made to feel that we parents are at fault for our children's refusal to train, that we can somehow make our kids move the contents of their bowels into a porcelain receptor with a few techniques.
One day I visited the good doctor's website to get a gander of his much extolled, six-step plan entitled, Potty Train Your Child in One Day. After I stopped laughing, I read it. It boils down to this: Buy a doll that wets, have your child teach the doll to use the potty, throw a huge "potty party" when the doll successfully pees, then put your own kid in underpants and throw him or her a potty party when he or she succeeds. Sure, I'll admit, there are some interesting tips here, techniques that may well work with some kids. It's pretty creative, I'll give it that.
But here's my beef: It's promoted as if this will work for every child, regardless of that child's situation in life, regardless of what motivating factors are present in the child's mind. In the process of training my fraternal, boy-girl twins, my husband and I used the exact same techniques with both children simultaneously. However our son Jonah was clearly not ready to use the toilet. His twin sister Abbey successfully finished potty training nearly a full year before Jonah. It didn't faze Jonah a bit that his sister was wearing big girl underpants while he was still in diapers. Made no difference at all.
A kid's potty training success can be nudged along and influenced by parental attitudes, that's for sure. But in the end, it's really up to each child to decide for him or herself when that magic no-diapers time will be. The successful completion of the potty training process is something that belongs to my kids, not me. I am not a failure as a parent because, at this point in Casey's life, he wants to retain his diapers. I can offer all the incentives in the world, but if he doesn't want to cooperate, I'm outta luck.
I can sum up my philosophy in one succinct sentence: You can drag a kid to the potty, but you can't make him pee. If you think you can Dr. Phil, be my guest.
This is just half of the potty issue! Please see The Great Potty Debate—One Mother's View: Potty Trouble or Power Struggle? for a different view of potty training.

The NBA's network has made significant strides in expanding the opportunities for its membership of over 20,000 lawyer, judges, educators and law students. The NBA has concerned itself with a wide range of projects, including:
○Purchased a permanent headquarters for the NBA at 1225 11th Street, NW, Washington, DC in 1984.
○Created its web site on the Internet to facilitate greater communication between the
Association and the general public, as well as to generate greater awareness of the NBA (http://www.nationalbar.org).
○Established communications with key corporations to generate retainers for minority law firms.
○Expanded the membership packet to include a Gold Master Card Program, car rental discounts, travel services, group discount purchasing and group insurance.
○Been approved as a sponsor in those states with mandatory CLE requirements.
○Operated a lawyer Referral & Information Center, a nationwide referral service for commercial lawyers.
○Expanded on the number and quality of continuing legal education (CLE) seminars offered each year.
○Expanded on the number of corporations providing discounts and benefits to NBA members.
○Fostered several long-term alliances with some of the world's most respectable corporations. Our aim is to establish on-going relationships between the members of the NBA and the products and services of several Fortune 1,000 companies.
○Established the NBA/ Carleton College Scholarship, a four-year scholarship awarded to as many as four deserving African-American students.
○Established The National Bar Association Crump Law Camp, designed to provide students between the ages of 14 and 17 and/or entering the 9th, 10th, and 11th grades with a comprehensive introduction to the American judicial and legal system.
○For more than ten years, the NBA has financially maintained itself primarily on receipts from membership dues, the Mid-Year Conference, and the Annual Convention. The NBA, as an advocate for the Nation's African American lawyers, continues to identify unaffiliated lawyers and guide them into the NBA network.

Ash's Song.5 Reviews
Ash, darling, this is for you.
takes center stage every night and day
dances through lies that are nine inches deep
ignores the sneers on the manager's face
three weeks until her final performance
she recites her lines and grinds out a smile
she's lost her mind, she's lost her sense
yet she plasters a grin on all the while
the screen flickers to life
static corrodes the memories
little girl playing with a kite
happiness is all she sees
skipping around past lullaby graves
singing songs of their wretched cries
little girl doesn't understand the pain
she only notices the bright blue sky
mama's in the kitchen
daddy's in the garage
little girl drowns the kittens
she watches from a queer facade
she has lollipops of cyanide
waltzes with arsenic-laced dolls
drinks from tea cups full of lies
little girl uses crayons of liquid salt
peers at the soldiers stumbling home
stares at the drunken men cheering at war
little girl gives out dreams on a loan
but they think she lies as her heart is sore
her teddy bear's stuffed with organs
her balloon's filled with bone
from rotten candy she's been hoardin'
little girl herself is stitched and sewn
blindsided by joy and cut off from faith
she's thrown around by the dogs and kids
like a toy she doesn't really have a place
used by old friends from thick and thin
computer labs and empty canteens
pours her soul out with paper scraps and lead
the wretched watch her gurgle and bleed
criss-cross lines stitched on wrists with thread
watches the world spin by as it ignores the miserables
quietly sings as her voice floats on to the weak
yet as she is deemed damned and horrible
she stumbles on and performs dazzling feats
she's a singer, an actress, a harmer, a dreamer
but all we see is through the little doll's eyes
behind that is macabre beauty if you looked inside her
she knows not what she is so she chooses to hide
of better days to come and better things to be
the scars will heal and soften
the world would be worse if she were to leave
I think of that lovely girl often
wondering eyes seek out the truth
innocence yet warped is still fleetingly bright
even though her wounds are what I cannot soothe
I like to think that she'll carry on in life
Well, Ash, I know it's been shitty for you these past months. I can't even imagine the pain you go through everyday. I wrote this as something you can look back on and something that will keep you from hurting yourself. I know I said this before, but you are beautiful. I'm honestly saying this not some shit I just made up. I mean it. Your voice is amazing, you're writing. . . I don't even have words for it. I didn't write this to compliment you though. You should already be getting those from other people. I wrote this because I care about you. You were the only person who emailed me after I attempted and it meant the world to me. When I'm about to hurt myself I think of you, and Sam, and Sadie and Nikki and everyone else who has stood by my side. If you were to leave, I'd be broken. I would never get over that and I'm dumb enough to take my life also if you were gone. Don't make me do that, doll. Just remember that across the world, a hyper Guatemalan midget cares about you. I'm Not Okay, you're not okay, but it doesn't matter. I just want to see you smile. xx Kitty

What in your right mind makes you think this team has any chance to win out?
We're going to finish 7-9.
Rex said in the presser that they aren't going to the playoffs but since they lost to an NFC team they have a shot if they win out.
The jets lost an NFC game so if the Ravens lose to Pitt even if they beat the Bears we will have the tiebreaker with same conference record and have them in common games. We would need to.
Win out
Ravens lose to Pitt
Miami lose to Houston or Pitt
Jaguars lose to Patriots.
We have tie breakers over Houston,Titans, and Pitt.
What in your right mind makes you think this team has any chance to win out?
We're going to finish 7-9.
wait so all we need is to win out, and a ravens loss and a miami loss?? Are you sure? that doesnt sound right
To be honest, we are not that bad a team...
With this defense, we can beat any team we play.
Someone should inform Rex that they aren't out of it.
are you guys high?
The best of all this bullsh@t is you watch the Raiders beat the Broncos today. The playcalling was crap as well as the special teams. You can't blame the D when they are on the field constantly because of all the 3 and outs. Show some balls Brian and make some calls like the TD pass to Edwards(btw anyone who thinks we shouldn't resign Edwards is high)
If the Broncos lose to Raiders that will be another opening If they also lose to the Eagles.
Raiders beating Denver 10-6 If Raiders can pull this out we have the tiebreaker if Denver loses to the Eagles.

Councilwoman Cheri Bryant Hamilton, Louisville Police Chief Robert White and the District 5 Neighborhood Advisory Committee are inviting District 5 students to put their ideas to pen, prose or spoken word for stopping violence in the community.
The District 5 Art, Essay/ Poetry or Rap Contest is open to all K-12 students in public and private schools in the district, as well as students who live in the district but attend school elsewhere in the city. Students are encouraged to draw, write or rap their solutions to the theme, "How I Think We Can Stop the Violence in the Community."
"We are all affected by the senseless violence in our community, but perhaps no one more so than our children," Hamilton said. "This is an effort to include our young people in helping to address the crisis of violence, and allow them to creatively and positively express their ideas for possible solutions."
Winners will be selected in each of the three categories from each participating school. First place winners will receive $300, with second place winners receiving $150 and third place winners receiving $50. In addition, the school submitting the most entries will receive $500 for its Family Resource Center to purchase educational materials, and all first place winners will be entered in a drawing for the grand prize of a personal home computer and printer. All second and third place winners will be entered in a drawing to receive gift certificates from local businesses and popular area attractions.
Winners will be announced and drawings conducted at the District 5 Holiday Reception, to be held Friday, Dec. 16 at the Shawnee Golf Course Clubhouse where the art will be displayed and the winning essays and raps read by the students. Winners will also be recognized at a Metro Council meeting.
Contest guidelines and entry forms can be obtained from students' neighborhood school, community center, library, 1st and 2nd Police Division headquarters or Councilwoman Hamilton's office, and returned to her at 601 West Jefferson Street, City Hall, Third floor, 40202, or faxed to 574-2560 by 5 p.m. Wednesday, Nov. 23.
All entries must be submitted for judging to Councilwoman Hamilton's office by 5 p.m., Dec. 7.
For more information on the contest, contact Councilwoman Hamilton's office at 574-1105.
