This is a vegetarian twist on the classic Carbanara sauce. It contains only 5 ingredients, is very quick to make and is one of the most delicious pastas I've eaten in a while.
This is a perfect supper to whip up in 20 minutes and is packed with flavour. I like to use whole-wheat pasta as I enjoy the slightly nutty flavour, and its lower in GI than regular pasta.
Recipe which will feed 2:
150g whole-wheat linguini (or any long pasta of your choice)
1 large free range egg
60ml / 1/4 cup creme fraiche
60ml / 1/4 cup of finely grated Parmesan cheese (and a bit extra for sprinkling)
2 – 3 cups of baby leaf spinach
zest of one small lemon – finely grated
salt & pepper
Bring a pot of salty water to the boil and cook your pasta until al dente.
While the pasta is cooking – get all your other ingredients ready and waiting. Grate the Parmesan cheese and measure out the creme fraiche. Beat the egg.
Drain the pasta over a bowl, reserving some of the cooking liquid. Immediately put the pasta back into the pot it was cooking in, back on the stove and add a splash (about 1/4 cup) of the cooking liquid. Add the spinach and stir it through the pasta. Put the lid on the pot and flash steam the leaves for a minute or two. Stir once or twice more to ensure the spinach is mixed into the pasta and is cooked. Turn off the heat.
Add the creme fraiche and lemon zest to the beaten egg and mix. Stir this through the very hot pasta and spinach to coat all the strands. The carry – over heat from the pasta will cook the egg. Add the Parmesan cheese and stir to fully to combine and then put the lid back on the pot for a minute or so to allow it all to integrate.
Check if it needs salt and pepper. It should be quite salty from the cheese and the pasta water.

Event detail
Six artists present their work and interview each other live over four hours
Come for ten minutes, or stay for all four hours, the artists and I would love for you to join us for a fun evening of art and discussion.
SHOW, BUT ALSO TELL, is an exhibition curated by Bridie Hindle, as part of The Gallery, a project by Wang Xin showing in London for Chinese Visual Festival. Artists Kyle Kirkpatrick, Jessica Wilson, Leah Clements, Luke Nairn, Owen Lacey and Michelle Lewis King show a range of artworks and interview each other live over the 4 hours of the exhibition timeframe. The catalogue will also be placed in the exhibition space for visitors to browse as they view the artworks and hear the artists speak.
SHOW, BUT ALSO TELL is an event that experiments with fusing together an exhibition of contemporary art with the materials that are often considered as supplementary to it. To make plain that an artwork is not a physical demonstration of an artists ideas, this ephemeral project makes an argument for promoting the discussions, writings and teachings that arise from an artwork and that can stimulate an audiences reception of the artworks on display.
In the words of pioneering curator Johannes Cladders, a mediating institution should instigate a process that transforms a work into a work of art in that the mediator assembles the artwork for public consumption. SHOW, BUT ALSO TELL offers an alternative to the white cube method of passively displaying artworks in an attempt to explore how the curator or institution might support audiences to engage with artworks beyond aesthetic and affective responses. At the same time, it enables academics to study paratextual materials, such as the interview and the catalogue, in situ alongside their physical and live counterparts.

Sorry for those last few nsfw reblogs, those were just hilarious accidents.
Hmm. I'm very bad at putting thoughts into words so forgive me if this is a mess.
On one hand, I understand it's meant to just a be a creative play on words and probably not meant to offend anyone. It's a show about drag queens, I doubt it was meant to be taken as anything other than crude humor. But on the other hand, I can see how people would get offended by it and I don't think it's a bad thing for people to speak up about it. And I truly don't understand the people that are pissed about it being removed like, that was a 5 second quote that really has nothing to do with the rest of the show. I don't get the outrage over it, next thing you know they'll be pissed and wanting Merle back.

Pc wont let me watch Itunes movie properly
On further exploration if i play a movie my cpu on itunes in task manager keeps going up to 98 percent.
Im not sure if im posting this in the right place but hopefully someone can help or reply so i can explain my situation.
At this moment ive restarted my pc about 10mins ago and my cpu is under 29percent yet when i try to watch a movie in itunes its stuttering and stalling.The red light on my cpu is working hard but i have no programmes open except firefox.ive closed itunes.ive task manager on to see what processes are on.phys mem is at 35percent so i should be able to run itunes fine.i watched a movie yesterday and the second half ran fine once my pc settled down whatever it was doing.
under processes for other users itssys host is 90000k was higher earlier.this sys host includes superfetch,windows driver foundation and a few others al at Pid 424.

Please fill out your system specs information so we know what you're working with. Also, what background programs are running? Are you streaming the movie? Maybe your computer was busy defragging, doing a virus scan, or something. There's no way of knowing for sure from the provided information.

Hi ive changed the focus of my problem. i have a theory that itunes is part of the problem.
I was trying to watch a movie that I had rented from the itunes store.It was downloaded to my pc and i was using itunes to watch it.I didnt have any programmes on apart from normal Avast Av , Comodo Firewall doing there work in the backround.No virus scan was on at the time.
I have 4gb of Ram.Intel Celeron 2.ooghz processor.windows 7 64bit home premium.my internet speed is 20mb.
For example i am downloading a couple of things at the moment but my cpu usage is at less than 50percent with a couple of spikes and no lag. When checking task manager I noticed while playing itunes was using over 90 percent of my cpu which it had not done before as i have only had this problem recently.I read up on this as well and tried a winsock reset as suggested but it still remained the same.
A post on Apple support suggested for me to use autoruns to see if there was a LP conflict.Autoruns said i was missing a file called rdclip.exe.
Ive looked into this further and found out its for remote desktp use which is disabled by Windows 7 on installation.Do i need to enable it or does it affect the small home network i have at all.If it doesnt then can i just untick the box in autoruns and move on.
I know ive written alot of stuff its just i want to give all info.
|My System Specs
|25 Sep 2012
Sorry, don't know much about iTunes and rdclip.exe.
That processor is a bit dated and slow, though still above minimum requirements. I'd probably go into the advanced system settings and optimize Windows for performance (if you haven't already done so). That should help with overall snappiness a bit, but probably not solve your issue with iTunes. I'll let someone more knowledgeable help you out with that.
Good luck.

Daly City Apartment Rental Photos and Description
1 bedroom in a nicely remodeled 1900's Victorian Home.
Our 2-unit home is Victorian and was built in 1906 right after the earthquake. The lower unit is completely separate from the top unit. We've done extensive work on the home and land. It is a double sized lot so half of the land is landscaped with waterfall and pond with fish, over 15 varieties of Hawaiian and Polynesian plants and an expansive lawn and yard. It is a 2 unit home, we live above and Halekipa (the guest home) is on the first level. Our 1 bedroom unit features Bamboo wood floors, carpet in the bedroom, washer and dryer in unit, updated appliances, full size bed and pull out couch in living. It can comfortably fit 4. There are extra pillows, blankets, sheets and towels for you also. We also have a few things for children (boys and girls sleeping bags and a few games…still adding on to this. The home is equipped with High speed WIFI and Cable T.V. (Astound) as well. This property also dubs as the Kaululehua Hawaiian Cultural Center. You'll notice a dance studio and library on the land as well. Once a week there are classes (dance) and once a month classes on cultural arts/crafts (weaving and lei making). Our home was awarded the Beautification award for South San Francisco in 2011 for the most beautiful Home in South San Francisco!
We are located in downtown South San Francisco (SSF) all restaurants are walking distance (Starbucks, Pete's, Subway, multiple Chinese and Mexican, Thai, Vietnamese , Korean, Italian, Argentinian, American, Japanese and more). There are a few grocery, liquor and drug stores within a block. Some of our favorite restaurants: For Breakfast – Cable Car Café (nothing fancy, just quick good ole fashioned breakfast), For Lunch - La Morena (best al pastor nachos, tacos and plates), For Dinner - Izanami (great specials, brand new and nice atmosphere, some killer Ramen!). If you've never had See's candy, the factory is down the street you might want to go in for samples ;-)
Everything you could possibly need is within 1 mile (drug stores, department stores, chain restaurants etc..) Most people stay at our place go site seeing. There is 1 car parking designated for our guest but if you don't drive bus is within 1 block, Train (Cal. Train) is 4 blocks, Bart is 10 blocks away. All of these can take you somewhere interesting. Downtown San Francisco is about 10 minutes by car. Besides San Francisco you should make time to explore our coast especially downtown Pacifica and cruise along famous highway 1 to visit downtown Half Moon Bay!

About Kawika Alfiche & Kia`i Maurille
Our names are Kawika and Kia'i and we are the owners of this property and we currently live on the property. Here we also run both the Kaululehua Hawaiian Cultural Center and the Hawaiian Cultural Dance Group called Halau o Keikiali'i travelling world-wide preserving & perpetuating the rich Culture of Hawaii. Let the Spirit of Aloha welcome you to this perfect weekend getaway.
Kawika Alfiche & Kia`i Maurille purchased this apartment in 2003
Why Kawika Alfiche & Kia`i Maurille chose Daly City
We fell in love with this property when we first saw it. Because it is located on a double wide lot, we were amazed with the space and all the potential it offered. Over the years, we lovingly worked on landscaping by adding trees, plants, & foliage most of which are native to Hawaii. We continued by adding a pond & waterfall and worked on improving the dwellings including our dance studio located on back of the premises.
What makes this apartment unique
We love beautiful Victorians because they have so much character and this home was exactly what we were looking for when we made our move to the Peninsula. Our goal was to bring a piece of Hawaii to this land, to grow native plants, and have a place to continue our Cultural work. We love the fact that this area where our home is located is so convenient to shopping, restaurants, shopping malls, theaters, and all the specialty shops we could ever need....not to mention the abundance of parking which was refreshing moving here from the Big City of San Francisco.
Guestbook comments from the owner
During a recent visit to San Francisco we were fortunate to find this beautiful apartment.The property is lovely - lush with plants and trees, inside was decorated beautifully, Spacious and included everything we needed.We had easy access to our car which could be hard to find in the city. Within the walking distance surrounding the place we found a variety of restaurants and shops. The owners of were helpful and hospitable making us feel welcome. I will definitely stay here again.

This photo combination shows logos for AT&T, left, and Deutsche Telekom AG. AT&T Inc. on Sunday, March 20, 2011 said it will buy T-Mobile USA from Deutsche Telekom AG in a cash-and-stock deal valued at $39 billion, becoming the largest cellphone company in the U.S. (AP Photo)
AT&T spokeswoman Cathy Lewandowski said it was "too early to know" how the $39 billion merger with T-Mobile would play out on employment at the two giant wireless phone companies.
"In situations where [there is] overlap in work functions, we expect the majority to be taken care of through normal employee attrition," she said.
Chattanooga is home to a $16 million T-Mobile call center that opened five years ago, as well as a number of kiosks and storefronts that sell T-Mobile equipment and contracts.
However, until federal regulators approve the deal, T-Mobile will remain as a separate business. The regulatory process is expected to take a year.
Tom Edd Wilson, president and CEO of the Chattanooga Area Chamber of Commerce, praised the merger proposal, saying the deal would increase the reliability and speed of wireless broadband in the region.
"That gives Chattanooga area businesses and consumers access to next-generation technology that can speed the flow of information," he said.
Wilson said AT&T's plans, far from destroying jobs, would "support Chattanooga's intelligent community strategy of leveraging technology to encourage job creation."
The Associated Press said that AT&T's primary goal in the merger is to gain access to T-Mobile's wireless spectrum, which will be used to launch more rapidly the company's fourth-generation LTE technology.
Cell carriers depend on access to wireless spectrum to communicate among cell phones and nearby towers.
The merger also received support from Warren Logan, president and CEO of the Urban League of Greater Chattanooga.
"The most important way to ensure the continued growth and prosperity of members of the minority and low-income population in Chattanooga is by ensuring availability of broadband and high-speed wireless services," Logan said.
Another issue at stake is how AT&T's unionized work force will mesh with T-Mobile's, which is non-union.
Tennessee allows workers to choose whether to join a union, and T-Mobile employees will have the option to do so after the merger is approved, AT&T officials said Monday.
The Communications Workers of America support the merger, while the Consumers Union, which publishes Consumer Reports, does not.

Getting the 'build 7600 is not genuine' problem
Hello all,
All of a sudden I have this message in the corner of my screen- Windows 7 Build 7600- This copy of Windows is not genuine. The last thing I changed in my system was adding an SSD which was about 3 months ago now, and haven't had any problems.
It is on Windows 7 Ultimate and I have had it installed for nearly 2 years now(jan 2011).

The Key in use is an MSDN Key from a not-for-resale MSDN account.
Unless you are an MSDN subscriber, you are not entitled to use the Key – and whoever sold it to you was not entitled to do so.
You need to claim an immediate refund from the vendor - do NOT accept the offer of a new key (all they are trying to do is to get past the 45-day claims window or avoid you sending the evidence of their crimes to the authorities)
Please read the following posts.... .................................
The pirates have got VERY good at this over the past few years, as the price of equipment for manufacturing the packages drops, and as factories open in less well-policed countries.

Thank you for your reply Noel.....looks like there is a fair bit of messing around for me then to resolve this!
I will try for a refund and report the seller(it was from Amazon Marketplace btw)...I think I fell in to the trap of believing Amazon MP to be better than ebay, when in fact they are the same.
Serves me right though....It was when I was building my PC and I was looking to save where I could to put towards other parts! I shall try to make sure more people know about this as well
Once again, thanks.

Sweden was not heavy metal force in the early development of heavy metal music - 70's, nor in 80's when many sub-genres/styles were developed. Yngwie Malmsteen developed one sub-genre of heavy metal music in 80's - neoclassical metal, but besides Yngwie, nothing significant has happened there. There were bands here and there like Candlemass etc., but in 90's things changed for better. Bands which pioneered and developed melodic death metal were from Sweden, and they were more successful than classic heavy metal and power metal bands thanks to use of growls. At that time heavy metal music started to rust, but then Swedish metalheads saved the whole genre - HammerFall, the band which brought heavy metal music back from the dead. New bands soon appeared: Wolf, Sabaton, Dream Evil, and then came Bloodbound. Swedes didn't just make heavy metal resurrection, but they set very high standards for quality of heavy metal music. If band is not as awesome as Swedish bands, I don't give a shit about it. Call me a fanboy, I don't care. Bloodbound is one of few power metal bands which was obviously influenced by melodic heavy metal bands like Helloween and Iron Maiden, and despite some similarities they are not copycats. There are lots of songs that will instantly grab any serious listener, but here is one which actually made me interested in this band, and that one is Nosferatu.
I still remember the very first time I heard that masterpiece. Rain, thunder, bells tolling, clean guitar intro which sounds so fucking beautiful, then vocals come, and suddenly from slow, epic part, song turns into monstrous, powerful, passionate and massive fast song. Drum bass work is amazing there, and that is just one of the important details which build this amazing song. Then I started with listening to the whole album. I was amazed with riffs, eerie lyrics, amazing vocals, lead guitars, drum work, incredible sing-along refrains, amazing, tasty, memorable guitar solos with lots of technical work. Into The Dark, Crucified, Fallen From Grace and Midnight Sun are examples of those awesome songs, made with that magic formula. However, not all of these songs are memorable after the very first listen, but after few serious and fair listens these songs show their true value. Less memorable doesn't mean bad, and they prove that. Hopefully, there are enough bombastic songs which show what's this band made of, and Metal Monster is one of them. It is anthem-like, mind-blowing song with its classic 80's classic heavy metal feel. Desdemonamelia is the most weird song from this album, manly because of progressive metal structure. It starts with really fast intro part, done much different that other fast songs from this album. The source of that song's power are ground-shaking drums, and nicely placed riffs, with addition of powerful vocals. It's the only song where keyboards jump in.
They served good purpose in the beginning and ending of the song. Midnight Sun is the only song to have keyboards which help to make even better neoclassical metal solo along with guitars. Olsson brothers never stop to amaze with insanely technical solos, using arpeggios, sweeps and shredding. It sounds so great when they play it, 'cause they know how to use techniques well with lots of emotion. Also, their solos sound very original, not like some neoclassical metal rip-offs from Malmsteen, Batio, or any other over-rated, famous, soulless shredder. On The Battlefield has the similar structure like Nosferatu. This song has clean guitars in the beginning too, but without thunder and rain. Instead of bell, Pelle used cymbal beats, and yes, again starts killer fast part, with amazing lead guitars, incredible drum galloping, incredible guitar solo. Urban Breed shows his inhuman vocal abilities in each song, but in the song For The King it's something completely different. That is the ultimate example of his sky-high, soaring vocals with huge amount of power. He has absolutely amazing vocal range, and control of his voice. He is not the only great band member. Pelle Åkerlind did bloody amazing job with his drums, Tomas and Henrik Olsson made incredible lead guitars, riffs, and solos of course. Johan Sohlberg has some notable bass lines, but that won't impress anyone, specially when other band members contributed more to the creation of this masterpiece.
Good sides of this release:
This band is really blessed with this amazing line-up, or at least they were. Many band members from this line-up are out, but the band continued well without them. This album has amazing mix of riffs, power chords, lead guitars and solos, amazing vocals and incredible drum work. Lyrics are dark-theme oriented, I don't know should you take them seriously or not, but this stuff is amazing. This album doesn't have any ballad, that doesn't mean it's good nor bad. I don't think that band is "more heavy metal than others" if they don't have ballads, but I don't think they need one here, 'cause this album is the best way to find out what power metal really is.
Bad sides of this release:
Narrow-minded listeners see this band as Helloween and Iron Maiden clone, but that doesn't make any sense, since this band is more intense, powerful, heavier and not vapid like them. Question of originality is not a big deal for me, specially because every band on this planet has its influences, and those influences are very often notable. Anyway, I would rather enjoy least original band, but with excellent songs, than very unique, but mediocre one. I am only satisfied with the final product, songs which band has to offer. It's better for a band if they are more unique than others, but that's not equal to quality of material they release.
Every song.
When I heard that Urban Breed left Tad Morose, I was very upset... I wondered how he was going to top their last several albums, which had all been fantastic.
I remember hearing "Behind the Moon" for the first time and being absolutely blown away. I haven't been that blown out of the water by something in a long time. The melodies, the power, it was too much. Bloodbound has managed to marry mindblowing composition of guitar harmonies with memorable songwriting and powerful and melodic vocals in a way that is very much the same, but somehow stands out in a big way. They're not breaking the bank on creativity, but somehow they just manage to nail the concept better than anyone else doing it these days.
The only problem with this album I've found is that it tends to be a little too much of the same thing. Only a small number of songs deviate from the formula laid out by the first track or two... that's the only thing keeping this album from a 100% .
I personally don't think you can like tradtional metal and not dig this album. Definately pick this up if you get a chance!
At the time Urban Breed announced his departure from Tad Morose, I was kind of bummed. Urban was the best thing that happened to Tad Morose, his powerhouse vocals made 'Undead' and 'Modus Vivendi' a strong pleasure to listen to, lifting the music of Tad Morose, which was quite good already, to a much higher level. When I'm writing this review, Joe Comeau has replaced Urban in Tad Morose and Urban himself has already left his new band Bloodbound again. I can't be too sad about that, Urban was as a singer much better than the mediocre band Bloodbound was deserving.
My first introduction to Bloodbound was through the title track of their debut album 'Nosferatu'. That song is a really good one, it hit me right away. After a desperate clean intro with just the right vocals by Urban, the song turns into an epic that wouldn't look bad on the resumé of Iron Maiden. The melody lines, the gallopping rhythms, the struture, the climax...all elements are kindly borrowed from Iron Maiden, but they are decorated with vocals that are even better than Bruce Dickinson's. A killer tune from a band with potential. Or at least that was what I thought.
There are two big problems with this album. First of all: once you have heard the title track, the rest of the album is a big letdown. 'Nosferatu' isn't the best song of a good band, 'Nosferatu' is a rare peak on a mediocre album. Which brings me to the second problem: the majority of the album sounds exactly the same: the gallopping rhythms, the solos, which are almost all harmonized, the same tempo almost all throughout the album, the annoying choirs in the way too happy choruses...I don't have a problem with songs sounding happy, if they actually are. An adequate example of this is 'Crucified', which has an incredibly happy chorus, which doesn't fit to the lyrics at all! In addition, guitarist Tomas Olsson seems to like to show off a lot. This is a problem more guitarists suffer from, but Olsson seems to do the same thing over and over.
There are a few lights in the dark. Opening track 'Behind The Moon' is actually quite good, it shows what makes Power Metal actually a good genre, in contrary to much of the rest of the album, which shows why it is understandable that many people despise the genre. 'Behind The Moon' builds up quite nicely and actually has a nice chorus. Coincidentally enough, this is one of the few songs played in a minor key. 'Desdemonamelia' (what the hell does that mean?) adds some variation to the album, because its tempo is lower and there is some more interesting stuff involved rhythm-wise. The chorus is a terrible one, but the rest of the track is quite good actually.
'Screams In The Night' isn't bad at all either. When it comes to building up, it has much in common with 'Behind The Moon' and the bass intro with Urban's low vocals sounds really good. In addition, the song has an above average chorus. The vocal lines to closing track 'On The Battlefield' are stellar and the guitar work is decent, but I kind of have the feeling the band has been trying to copy 'Nosferatu' with this one. However, it's one of the better songs of the album.
The worst tracks for me are probably 'Fallen From Grace' and 'Crucified'. Complete throw-away tracks that make the album unbearable. Another lowpoint for the album: its lyrics. I know that Power Metal bands aren't known for their poetic highlights, but I guess my expectations were just too high for an album with Urban Breed on it...
And by the way...what's up with the painted faces? It looks ridiculous on Black Metal bands, it looked ridiculous on Kiss...wait a second...now that I mentioned Kiss...might the painted faces be a way of covering up that the music really isn't all that good?
'Nosferatu' isn't the worst album in the world. In fact, it's not all that bad: the musicianship is tight, the vocals are of course beyond amazing and the band is capable of making some great songs. A band that wasn't wouldn't have been able to write and play the song 'Nosferatu', but the album is boring, seems to work with variations of just one riff and one lead and most of the choruses annoy the hell out of me. Urban...good luck with your solo record, I just know it'll be much better than this!

As a teen, Vanessa Williams enjoyed performing, singing, dancing and, like a typical teen, rankling her no-nonsense mother, Helen. In 1983, Williams never imagined she would be crowned the first African American Miss America — or the fallout when her Playboy past was revealed. And this was not her only secret. Williams had also endured childhood molestation and, in high school, an unplanned pregnancy that ended in abortion. … Back to Article

In the dawning light of a late-summer morning, the people of lower Manhattan stand hushed, staring up in disbelief at the Twin Towers. It is August 1974, and a mysterious tightrope walker is running, dancing, leaping between the towers, suspended a quarter mile above the ground.

I n our nation's sometimes confusing presidential selection process, Iowans will have their say today on who the Republican nominee to face Democrat President Barack Obama next November should be.
That gets the caucus and primary season rolling, with New Hampshire's primary coming days from now and primaries in South Carolina and Florida following not long after.
The front-runners in the nationwide GOP contest -- former House Speaker Newt Gingrich and former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney -- hope to do well in the early contests to build momentum.
It is anyone's guess who may win in Iowa, though, with Texas Congressman Ron Paul coming on strong in recent weeks. Romney is expected to win in New Hampshire, and Gingrich holds leads in South Carolina and Florida.
Critics of the Republican hopefuls point out that all of them have some political "baggage" that they will have to overcome in the primaries -- and that one of them ultimately will have to overcome in the general election against Obama.
But while we freely acknowledge that there is no George Washington nor Abraham Lincoln among the Republican candidates, we can state without reservation that any of the GOP hopefuls is leagues ahead of Obama in understanding how the economy works and in respecting the principles of limited, constitutional government.
By tomorrow, we should know whom the voters of Iowa prefer as their Republican standard-bearer against Obama. And in subsequent weeks we'll learn the same from other states. Once the GOP nominee is set, there is, of course, no guarantee that he will defeat Obama in November. But we may be assured that the nominee will present ideas and policies in refreshing contrast to those of the incumbent.
Have you heard from Rick Perry? Or Michelle Bachmann? You would get better information flipping a coin to decide what to do.
And respecting the principles of limited, constitutional government? Newt Gingrich and Mitt Romney haven't met a principle they wouldn't sell out in a heartbeat. And Rick Santorum would have the government in your bedroom as soon as a fetal heartbeat could be heard.
The only ones I might give credit for integrity and wisdom would be Huntsman and Paul, but let's face it, you'd sooner get a cardboard cutout as the nominee than either of them. Paul doesn't want to go to war with Iran, and Huntsman doesn't hate immigrants.
Of course, your priorities are wrong anyway, because you are thinking of it in terms of how you want to defeat Obama. You should instead be focusing on how best you can help the country, because a decided lack of concern for the nation while appealing in terms of increasing electability versus an incumbent might work in the short-term, it will backfire in the end.
BTW, Lincoln was a compromiser and Washington imposed taxes with force of arms. Are you sure you'd want them running for office?
Neither Obama nor the the GOP candidates have presented economic solutions to the problems we face. They all speak in generalities because there are only hard choices. How do we know who would have the courage to make those hard choices? We don't.
As my friend Joe Bageant(.com)sez,"we vote for personalities and fraudulent media issues such as gun control (both sides are hawking media baloney on that one) and threats such the legal union of Brian and Geoff destroying good Christian marriage -- this, despite that the Bible crowd set seems quite capable of doing it for themselves -- their divorce rate is no lower than we onanist librul fetus killers. And when it comes to halting the American suckdown of the planet's paltry remaining resources, only global revolution or an environmental collapse can get American faces out of the Cheetos bag, much less rock the ExxonMobil- Wal-Mart- Starbucks- Microsoft- Citigroup- McDonald's- Time Inc.- Monsanto bastards out of the saddle they own and occupy regardless of who is in the White House."
There are looming crises far more important than which Republican airhead will run against Mr. Obama. This reminder comes from Economic Collapse Blog:
Back in 2008, a financial crisis that began on Wall Street was felt in the farthest corners of the globe.
This time, ground zero for the financial crisis is going to be in Europe. As I have written about previously, the European financial system is rapidly coming apart at the seams. The euro continues to drop like a rock, and banking stocks continue their long-term decline.
Many people expect a "financial collapse" to happen on a particular day. But that is not how it happens usually. Instead, it is often like a snowball that starts rolling downhill very slowly at first but that eventually become a huge avalanche.
Right now, we are seeing the financial world come apart in slow motion. A recent article posted on Automatic Earth included a list of the year-to-date performance of some of the most prominent global banking stocks. These numbers are absolutely staggering....
BofA: -60.38% Citi: -44.76% Goldman Sachs: -46.41% JPMorgan: -23.03% Morgan Stanley: -45.24% RBS: -50% Barclays: -34.32% Lloyds: -63.02% UBS: -29.33% Deutsche Bank: -28,55% Crédit Agricole: -56.04% BNP Paribas: -37.67% Société Générale: -59.57%
But because these numbers happened over the course of a year and not on a single day it doesn't feel quite as much like a "collapse".
Unfortunately, things are about to get a whole lot worse. Global credit markets are really freezing up - especially in Europe.
Considering the fact that the entire global financial system is based on credit and debt, that is a very bad thing.
Our (Capitalist) system simply does not work when banks do not want to lend money to each other or to businesses.
Just yesterday there was an article in the Guardian that talked about how it looks like the credit crunch may be getting even worse....
"If European banks are still this concerned, it's not a good sign," said Karl Schamotta, senior markets strategist with Western Union Business Solutions. "That underlines the possibility that this liquidity crunch is getting worse and will continue into the new year."
When banks cut back on lending, that causes the money supply to shrink. When the money supply shrinks substantially, it is almost impossible to avoid a recession. A recent article by Ambrose Evans-Pritchard detailed how the money supply in many eurozone nations is shrinking at a very rapid pace right now....
Simon Ward from Henderson Global Investors said "narrow" M1 money – which includes cash and overnight deposits, and signals short-term spending plans – shows an alarming split between North and South.
While real M1 deposits are still holding up in the German bloc, the rate of fall over the last six months (annualised) has been 20.7pc in Greece, 16.3pc in Portugal, 11.8pc in Ireland, and 8.1pc in Spain, and 6.7pc in Italy. The pace of decline in Italy has been accelerating, partly due to capital flight. "This rate of contraction is greater than in early 2008 and implies an even deeper recession, both for Italy and the whole periphery," said Mr Ward.
Those are very, very frightening numbers.
About the only thing propping up European banks right now is the fact that the European Central Bank is loaning them gigantic piles of cheap money.
But there is a big problem.
European banks are running out of collateral for those loans as an article in the Wall Street Journal recently noted....
Even after the European Central Bank doled out nearly half a trillion euros of loans to cash-strapped banks last week, fears about potential financial problems are still stalking the sector. One big reason: concerns about collateral.
The only way European banks can now convince anyone—institutional investors, fellow banks or the ECB—to lend them money is if they pledge high-quality assets as collateral.
Now some regulators and bankers are becoming nervous that some lenders' supplies of such assets, which include European government bonds and investment-grade non-government debt, are running low.
So what happens when banks all over Europe start running out of collateral and can't get any more loans?
The answer should be obvious.
As I detailed a few days ago, many prominent voices in the financial world now believe that we could be looking at a financial crisis that will be even worse than 2008.
If you want to see what happens when a collapse happens and a depression begins, just look at what is happening in Greece....
*100,000 businesses have been closed since the beginning of the crisis.
*About a third of the nation is now living in poverty.
*The unemployment rate for those under the age of 24 is 39 percent.
*The number of suicides has increased by 40 percent in the past year.
*Thefts and burglaries nearly doubled between 2007 and 2009.
Things have gotten so bad that hundreds of families in Greece are abandoning their children.
Some are taking their children to charitable institutions and others are handing them directly over to the government.
The following sad story of one Greek family comes from an article in the Guardian....
"Psychologically we were all in a bit of a mess," said Gasparinatos. "We were sleeping on mattresses on the floor, the rent hadn't been paid for months, something had to be done."
And so, with Christmas approaching, the 42-year-old took the decision to put in an official request for three of his boys and one daughter to be taken into care.
"The crisis had killed us. I am ashamed to say but it had got to the point where I couldn't even afford the €2 needed to buy bread," he told the Guardian. "We didn't want to break up the family but we did think it would be easier for them if four of my children were sent to an institution for maybe two or three years."
Does that seem shocking to you?
Well, all of this is coming to America eventually.
Someday we will see American parents abandoning their children because they cannot take care of them anymore.
Someday we will see suicides absolutely skyrocket in America because people have lost all hope.
Someday we will see thefts and burglaries soar to unprecedented heights as millions of desperate people attempt to try to find some way to survive.
It is all coming.
The federal government cannot pile up a trillion dollars of additional debt every year indefinitely.
We cannot afford to see an average of 23 manufacturing facilities a day in the United States shut down. Eventually there won't be anymore factories to shut down.
We cannot afford to keep putting millions more Americans on welfare. At this point the government is feeding 46 million Americans a month. Will the government eventually be feeding most of us?
The U.S. economy is getting weaker and weaker and weaker. All of the long-term trends are absolutely nightmarish. We are accumulating debt faster than ever, and our ability to produce wealth is diminishing faster than ever.
There is no way that things are going to be okay if we stay on the path that we are currently on.
So the truth is that Americans should be very concerned about an economic collapse.
It is coming and it is going to be very painful."
What has our country become when one party has only destruction in mind. No positives are mentioned for our nation, just hate for our current president. They're against everything humane and would help the planet and its inhabitants. All I hear is they'll DESTROY the Affordable Health Care Act; they'll destroy education for the masses; they destroy any effort to provide us with clean water and air; they'll destroy any country that dares to resist our occupations; and on and on it goes. These GOPer's are totally un-American and treasonous at the very least. I hope true Americans, who truly wants what best for EVERYONE and not just the 1%, will get off their couches and march to the polls to take these black shirts out of our lives.

They'll destroy America if it will make Obama look bad. They've done everything they could possibly to to block every effort the president has made to place the country back on track to recovery. They want him to fail and fail badly, even if it means the destruction of America. Yes! And racism plays a very large role in that decision.
It's funny that you posted that as the present situation in Europe, and here as well, is the inevitable result of the socialist policies you so love.
As PM Thatcher once said, "...Socialist governments traditionally do make a financial mess. They always run out of other people's money."
That socialist tsunami you mentioned before is happening now in Europe and is headed to this side of the Atlantic as well if we don't get our house in order.
The poorest will be hurt the most. But then, that always happens when leftist ideas are implemented.
Actually I heard a report that what's really draining the money is the export-driven economies.
In other words, it's the capitalists whose covetousness has rendered everybody else too poor to keep up with economic activity.
The poor will certainly be hurt most since the rich still have the money to keep buying the laws they want, but it's not because wealth is going to them.
Or how else do you explain the growing income disparities?
Thanks, Happy - glad you get it - I gave up on ScottyM a long time ago. If he weren't unable to do internet research, he would know Socialists believe that workers should own the means of production rather than being grossly underpaid for their labor as though it and they were just another commodity on the profit-loss sheet. It is greedy capitalists who would move a plant to the North Pole in a heartbeat if they could extract more profit by employing Santa's elves for free as off-season labor.
Note to ScottyM: The European Central Bank and the other global financial institutions watching their balance sheets shrink are not run by socialists but are suffering the predictable consequenes of blind Wall Street greed enabled by deregulation and "free-market" policies begun here by that devil Ronald Reagan.

This is not a Nomad concept but it should be. This is the Volvo Concept Estate, a concept car predicting a future 1800ES wagon. I think it looks fantastic and can only imagine if Chevy could only be on the same page as Volvo on this one. An affordable two door wagon base on the next gen Camaro that looked like this would be just about perfect for the hot rodder looking for something with style to haul your junk with. I know it's niche-y but Volvo obviously sees a business model for it. At any rate check out the pics and dream about what could have been...
Lori Ensley Alford
looks cool
It's a cool car... but here's a funny thing. Wagons and crossover SUV"s sell. Dodge made the Magnum. So why not make something that's not an overblown tank? Same with trucks. Half tons are $40K 6000 lb. sleds. Think instead early El Camino or Blazer here. Cut half the electronics (it will make it lighter and cheaper to build), make it useable and accesible. Utility doesn't have to be dorky. I'm keeping my '81 Elco.
I would drive this!
No way. Leave the nomad alone
I like the look of this one.
I am a car enthusiast btw....of cars from when they had style and power. If it doesn't look like an old Nomad.....it's not a Nomad. You can't rebadge a Grand Prix as a GTO and hope no one notices. Charger into a 4 door? WTF. The only things worth looking at today are Camaros, Challengers, and some of the stangs.
Chevy loses about 1 million sales a year because they won't build two-door cars larger than a rollerskate that the older generation wants. Half the population is over 55,
If it's not a two-door, It's not a real Nomad.
Not even close
Bring back the Nomad!
It's a VOLVO...
Ugly! Looks like a volvo wagon!
I'm all in on this one we used to have a Nomad AND an 1800 ES.
A far cry from a nomad.
Albert Torres
wagons don't do well in the market anymore...
Thats what I call it
I'd buy it looks cool
Itll be horrendously over priced like all other new cars....
Kris Martin's next car!
Chevy could do something very similar off the "new" SS platform.
Wait... I heard the Chinese bought Volvo, not GM...
That was a deceptive lead in!
You stole my dream
Dammmmmmmnn new nomad?? We need to see it,,,,,
Patrick Panther
We will have one
Oh hell yeah
The new P1800 touring.
They should make it AWD too and give it a turbo engine.
A cooler version of the Subaru Outback STI
That's the new Volvo lol. Hot Rod magazine, are you serious?
if so i need that in my life
James MacDonald are you retarded
Hell NO......
Not to mention there is no S bar
Chevy is stuck in the mud on bringing idea's to the show room floor. Government regulations tie them up. So if they ever come to life, it won't be what the public wants. No V8 and front wheel drive can be expected should they try to do this. In the mean time, with the exception of the Vette and Camaro) ,they keep making boring cars. Dodge was the last good wagon (magnum) and they quit making it. I saw a mock up Chevelle which they used a Challenger as the base. It sure looked nice. But you'll never see it.
Way to go Chevy.....now you want to copy Volvo?
How did you mix a Chevrolet with a volvo?. Check out the gmc Arcadia got one and is does everything good but not the best at anything.
Thats the new volvo...
Joseph Aintnobodygotnotimeforthat Miller
Stretched out beamer!?
for a second i thought it was a new bmw or audi
Eric Miller
Looks like a BMW 5 series tourer
And the nomad would be a good comeback
Bring the belair back!!!
Sempre più belle ...e sempre avanti a tutti ..forever Volvo !!!

This seems like a good time to mention that, when a friend says that they've made progress on a mental health issue, it is generally inappropriate to criticize their progress as Insufficiently Rational/Skeptical.
Yes, there are caveats. Yes, sometimes people do dangerous things trying to get better. Yes, sometimes people do quack treatments that don't work. Yes, yes, yes.
But if someone says, "Hey guys, I'm feeling better!" and whatever you say is less along the lines of "That's awesome, good for you!" and more along the lines of "UR DOIN IT RONG," then you're doing more harm than good.
And from one skeptic/atheist to another, at that point, you can shove your skepticism/atheism you-know-where.
I don't understand what you are saying here exactly, how could a response to mental illness be insufficiently skeptical? Are you trying to refer to homeopathic "drugs"?
I agree with you, people should be happy when others make progress in that sphere, but how can a treatment be irrational?
I, as a skeptic, am just wondering because it doesn't sound like a fair use of those two words.
For instance, if someone finds religious observance helpful, or if pseudo-spiritual concepts like having a soul or having a deeper purpose in life have been helpful to them.
Do people really have souls? Is there really a god? Does life really have any intrinsic purpose? I don't believe so, no. But if believing so helps someone else, I'd rather see them mentally healthy than mentally ill.
Ok, but if that person wishes to say that this idea is true, then I feel I have a obligation to debate them on it. If they keep it to themselves then I don't care, but otherwise you have to treat them as a thinking person.
I have heard an example from Dawkins, of a nonbeliever still praying because it helps him think. I have take no issue with that, but if they take the religious route and say they are actually talking to a supernatural being, then I feel you have to argue.
No, you do not have an "obligation to debate" anyone. Especially not when they're posting publicly about something personal and painful like mental illness (and recovery thereof).
If someone posts a status that just says, "I believe we have souls," then the protocols are quite different and respectful debate is appropriate. But I'm not talking about those situations. I'm talking about when someone has taken the immensely brave step of openly discussing their mental health problems, and when they're accomplished the extremely difficult step of progressing towards recovery. That is not an appropriate time to debate.
Yes, treating people as thinking people is important. It's equally if not more important to treat them as feeling people. Do not undermine someone's recovery from mental illness by questioning it, insulting it, and/or treating it as illegitimate or as a subject for debate. I can't say this strongly enough.
