My Dearest Allie,
I couldn't sleep last night because I know that it's over between us. I'm not bitter anymore, because I know that what we had was real. And if in some distant place in the future we see each other in our new lives, I'll smile at you with joy and remember how we spent the summer beneath the trees, learning from each other and growing in love. The best love is the kind that awakens the soul and makes us reach for more, that plants a fire in our hearts and brings peace to our minds, and that's what you've given me. That's what I hope to give to you forever. I love you. I'll be seeing you.
i will always treasure this movie.

The Acceptable Time
Behold, now is the accepted time; behold, now is the day of salvation.
—2 Corinthians 6:2
Some people will say the reason they are not Christians is that it is just not their time yet. They don't think they are ready.
That would be like someone who is drowning in the middle of the ocean saying to the lifeguard, "I am not ready yet." What part of dead do they not understand? I would say that if you are drowning, then you are ready for salvation.
Unbelievers are in a worse state than a person who is drowning, because they are separated from God by their sin. If they are wondering when they should come to Jesus Christ, the time is right now. Not tomorrow. Not next week. Not next month. It's right now. God says, "Now is the accepted time; behold, now is the day of salvation" (2 Corinthians 6:2).
This is the acceptable time. We don't know how long it will last. There is coming a day when Jesus Christ will return to this earth for His people. There is coming a day when He will catch all true believers up into heaven with Him. We call it the rapture of the church. It is that moment that we look forward to as Christians, when we will go to be with the Lord. It is described in Scripture as happening "in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet. For the trumpet will sound, and the dead will be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed" (2 Corinthians 15:52).
Now is the time when God is looking in grace upon those who are separated from Him by sin, and the gospel is going out to them. Now is the day of salvation.

The first period started with everyone flying on both sides. The Detroit Red Wings received the first powerplay when Duncan Keith tripped up Justin Abdelkader. The Red Wings did everything but score in the 2 minutes especially when Danny Cleary had a lot of the net empty but couldn't get it past Corey Crawford. Crawford was very good during the powerplay including at least three big saves. If there was something to worry about with Crawford going forward is he was giving up big rebounds. The Hawks went to the man advantage when Joakim Andersson interfered with Andrew Shaw, but the Hawks were up to their old tricks with a pretty weak powerplay. Viktor Stalberg was up next to draw a penalty and even though the Hawks second powerplay was more productive it still was not succesful and it ended the period with no score.
The second period started very quickly for the Hawks on a stretch pass that finally clicked for the Hawks from Niklas Hjalmarsson that hit Michal Handzus and Marian Hossa and in the end Patrick Sharp's stick for the first goal of the game. The Hawks were a much faster team until Andrew Shaw took a bad interference penalty when it appeared that Stalberg would be in the Wings zone on an odd man rush. The Hawks were able to kill the penalty with their normal great penalty killers Michael Frolik and Marcus Kruger. The Hawks had their next powerplay and this is the best way to sum up the two minutes at the United Center.
There are good power plays, there are bad power plays, and then there's whatever the Blackhawks just did. I think they lost a shot on goal.
— Jesse Spector (@jessespector) May 30, 2013
The Wings controlled the puck more than the Hawks would have liked but with the stellar play of Corey Crawford the horn sounded and the Hawks skated with a 1-0 lead heading to the third period.
The third period started out very ominous almost eerily like Game #6 in Detroit where the road team was able to equalize the game very early in the third period when Henrik Zetterberg dumped the puck into a wide open net with Corey Crawford almost frozen in time. What was a very loud United Center went almost completely quiet. The Red Wings went on to own the next 10 minutes of play but also like Game #6 Crawford after a bad goal came up huge for the Hawks the rest of the way for the third period. Though shots were even at 9 for the third it felt like the Red Wings owned it for most of the play. The Hawks did have a powerplay in the middle of the period that helped even out the momentum some. The Hawks did have a big push with four minutes left in the third which led to Brandon Saad winning the puck before getting slammed into the Red Wings bench and while a nifty pass found Hjalmarsson who buried it past Jimmy Howard the back official Stephen Walkom blew the play dead for the hit on Saad. While Cheslea Dagger was blaring the goal was getting waved off. The crowd went nuts and your social media timeline whether it was Facebook or Twitter was on fire!!! A truly top 5 worst playoff calls of all-time and with less than 2 minutes left the Hawks would have to re-group. The Wings had some good chances in the final minute but the horn sounded and Game 7 was heading to overtime even though everyone with a pulse could tell the game should have been over already.
The average time for Game 7 overtimes is 8:52 but this one would only last 3:35 after a huge hit by Dave Bolland ,who was pretty disappointing for the whole series, the puck made it to Brent Seabrook who skated in and threw a wrister that glanced off Niklas Kronwall's leg and found the back of the net behind Jimmy Howard and Game 7 was finally a victory for the Blackhawks 2-1. I've watched it a dozen times at least, but here is the OT winner followed by the series ending handshakes.
-The Hawks completed only the 21st NHL comeback all-time down 3-1 in 230 attempts, and the first every by the Blackhawks (NHL.com)
-Joel Quenneville is now 2-3 all-time in Game 7's and the first time his team has scored 2 goals in Game 7.
-Mike Babcock is now 11-4 head to head against Joel Quenneville after the series loss.
-Brent Seabrook is only the 4th defenseman to score a Game 7 OT goal and the first since 2001 and Darius Kasparaitis
-This was the first Game 7 OT win in Blackhawks team history
-The final four teams left in the playoffs are the last four Stanley Cup Champions only the 2nd time in history this has occurred.
– Game 1 of the Western Conference Finals is Saturday at 4pm at the United Center!!

I came accross your page looking for stuff about my phobia, maybe you can help.. I have no idea. I have a major foot-phobia.. I cant stand to look at feet, touch feet, someone elses feet touching me, or even talking about feet! It drives my crazy! Talking about feet just makes me sick to my stomach and wanna barf, looking at feet or feet being close to me I get a little edgey.. But if someone elses feet are on me, OMG I freak my throat starts to close and i basically almost pass out, I'll cry and yell and scream until the feet are out of my site and not touching me.. As a young child my friends and family used to find it funny, and they would wake me up by putting their feet on me, it's not AS BAD if the person has socks on.. and I am always wearing house sliipers or socks or shoes, I've been known to not take my shoes off til i absolutly have to.. (ive even slept in shoes) Even though I'm only 15, I dont thinbk it will get any better over time, only worse! It's REALLY hard to cuddle with my boyfriend when i know his feet are in the same bed with me..
I hate feet. They discust me. Tough feet and looking at feet. Esspecially other peoples.
I would like to submit my rather unusal phobia...i have a great fear of feet! I can't think of a name though!
I also cannot stand bare feet. I wear socks all the time. Feet absolutely gross me out. I especially can't stand to see someone else's bare feet or have them within a foot away from me (no pun intented). Feet give me the creeps!
Hi, I have a fear of feet and since there is no name for it, I came up with "pes pedisphobia." "Pes pedis" being the latin word for "foot" and put together with "phobia." Hope it helps.....
I was reading your fears and I have a friend who is terribly afraid of birds, and we looked it up on a different website and it is called ornithophobic. Also she is terrified of feet. She has thrown up because a foot(with sock on) touched her. She screams bloody murder when she gets kicked or stepped on. She has a rule in her house where you MUST wear shoes, unless theyre really dirty, then socks or you can wear a pair of her shoes. She wont let her boyfriend touch her with his feet or take his socks off around her. She is also afraid of like fake feet. I once gave her a stuffed foot as a gag gift and she freaked out. After that she wouldnt talk to me for months.
I have to agree with one of your readers on your phobia website...I am terrified of feet! I am 17 years old and live with my mother and father. When my dad comes home from work, he takes off his boots and socks and begins rubbing his feet. If I am anywhere close enough to see or even hear this dirty act, I must leave the room. i get sick to my stomach and begin to gag. My friends find it amusing to take their socks off when on roadtrips to soccer games and quietly "sneak up" on me by slipping their feet over the back of my seat. My mom once had to pull the car over in order to calm me down. I was screaming hysterically and she threatened to take me to the emergency room. I can't make rules in my house, but I do command ONE thing...Everyone in my house must wear socks. I am not as bad when people wear socks, but it is still terrivle. I don't like seeing, touching or hearing (like when people rub their toes or whole foot together and it makes a scratchy sound) anyones feet. I can't even touch my own feet! oddly enough, my sister has the same fear. Although she does not live with me anymore, she is nearly as bad, not letting her usband in bed without proper "gear" (and by gear I mean socks)!
I have a phobia of feet too, and I don't know anyone else that does, so all my friends laugh at me. They are just really freaky and I hate them anywhere near me. I don't find them as bad when they have shoes on but if they are bare I totally freak out. My friends also find it funny to put them close to me because they don't understand what its like!
Fear of toes
I Have a huge fear of feet. When ever i see feet i freak out. i can't stand to look at them and especially touch them, even with socks on. My friebds think it is funny when they rub their feet on me but all it does is make my want to throw up. I think the reason for my fear is when i was younger my older sister would stick her foot in my face and make me lick them and ever since them i dont look at them the same
i don't know why but i am terrified of feet there gross and the feel of other peoples feet i hate feet so much i have to were socks all the time because my own feet gross me out. i mean i tried every thing to make me not afraid of them but it doesn't work when feet touch me i get so freaked out i get mad like someone is doing just to piss me off my friends used to think it was funny and hold me down and put there feet on me tell i almost burst into tears it has gotten so bad that i cant lay down beside someone without my own blanket because there feet might touch me when I'm sleeping
Hi. I read a lot of your phobia page, and i am glad that i'm not the only one here!!!! i have a very weird fear of feet! i just..dont like bare feet touching me..It isn't to the extreme where i cant look at feet or insist that everyone wears socks around me..it just completely grosses me out when people put their feet on me..my friends do it as a gag all the time and I freak out.
Oh my Gosh, I read about the fear of feet and that is SOOO me! It just started about 2-3 years ago, I never really noticed untill someone touched me with there foot. I can handle my own, and SOME feet are okay, some people don't have weird feet, but MOST feet make me want to gag. My best friend who has FREAKY feet put both of them on my legs the other day and I felt trapped, my stomach knotted up and I almost cried, and totally and completely freaked out. I am so glad that I finally found other people with similar fears!
I had no idea there were other people afraid of feet like me! It's comforting to know that I am not alone. Bunt, unlike the others, my own feet do not bother me at all. I never wear socks or shoes in my photography class or home darkroom, and I hate to wear sneakers or close-toed shoes. I'm seventeen years old and have had problems with my right foot for years (high arch, weak ligaments). I've been on crutches thirteen times and had two surgeries in the past four or five years. Whenever I see the podiatrist, I can't shake his hand without feeling extreme discomfort and I must wash my hands immediately after returning home. I can't stand my feet touched, either. My family and friends think it's funny to freak me out with their feet. I get chills and goosebumps and shake when feet come near me. If I am touched by a foot, I flip out. I can feel the foot germs crawling all over my skin like tiny bugs. I have to wipe them off on something, anything, to make them stop. It makes me want to rip my skin off! I'm so glad there are other people who understand me! I call it podiphobia, because I go to a podiatrist, but I can't find a real name anywhere.
Hey! i was looking at your site and its wonderful to know that others have the same thing i do! Im only 15 and my entire family makes fun of me for this fear of feet! I cant stand peoples feet being on me i stand on chairs and scream when people come after me with their feet! No kidding! Other than that im a normal teen! However, i was looking on a site to prove that this is a real phobia and they called it "podophobia" podo meaning foot or feet. Hope it helps!
I have a really big foot phobia. dey r really gross and freak me out. I am also scared of wooden spoons. dey soend shivers dwn my spine and even tlkin about them mkes me freak out!!!
My girlfriend has this strange phobia that we so lovingly consider a foot-phobia, with pretty much the same symptoms as the other cases that have written in. I was suprised, however, at the lack of medical name for this fear of feet. I believe that I could be of some service at naming this ailment. Since the word "phobia" is Greek, it is only befitting to develop a Greek prefix, rather than Latin. I took a little trip to the English-Greek dictionary and found out that the word for "feet" is "podia" in Greek. Therefore, the most logical name that i could come up with is "Podiaphobia." I hope this helps.
First of all, my friend is also a footphobic. She likes her feet, but if she sees someone else's, bare, she freaks. She doesn't seem to have a problem when she doesn't see them, just when she sees them bare.
Hey i was just reading your web-site and found out that i'm not the only one who is terrified of feet. I don't know what it is, but i cannot be around feet. If someone puts their feet on me, i start to freak out and i've even been known to cry for like 30 minutes because of this... what's the deal??
I was so happy to see on your sight that others have a foot phobia. Typing that word alone creeps me out. Ones in shoes or usually even clean socks do not bother me. But when they are naked I freak. People think its hilarious to shove feet near me but it seriously makes me feel ill. Nobody realized how sick it is to me, what can I compare it to so they will understand? I may also be a minor case of a germaphobe also, I wash my hands constantly and go nowhere without antibacterial. I cannot eat if my hands are not clean.
Its really bad in the summer. I look around, and all i see are feet everywhere. I dont understand why people can so freely expose themselves like this. Its almost offensive. I wish i could just be like everyone else. Some feet are exceptable and some aren't. Mine aren't. I'm really against plastic surgery, but if there were something I could do about it, "for free," I would take advantage. Sometimes the hot water in the shower runs out because i just stand there looking down and...good god. Good lord help me. Will i ever get over this? Has anyone ever gotten over this without the use of therapy? Also, why is it such a problem??? Please get back to me if you have any advice. I am two feet away from my demise. Thank you.
I have a mild fear of feet. I don't have a problem at all if they are wearing shoes and am even OK if socks are on (as long as they aren't near my face) but bear feet freak me out. They are just so weird and if someone puts their feet on me (bare) I freak out and start screaming. I had to do gym at school and we were doing counterbalances and we had to put our feet near each other, just the thought of my feet touching someone else's made me feel sick, it took so much effort not to scream out. My brother teases me and every chance he gets he will shove his feet in my face which drives me crazy. I also hate having my toenails clipped, I can't do it myself and I hate other people touching my feet. I wear socks all the time (even in bed) so I don't have to look at my feet and I usually put those veruca socks on when I get in the bath so I don't have to look at them! I know it's crazy but I can't help it.
i am scard of feet i like people to wair socks and i do not like feet near me im all right with my own thow 'prosstysters' is the name i call it.
Until I was twelve, I had an uncontrollable fear of showing strangers my own feet. I would freak out if anyone asked me to show my feet and start sobbing uncontrollably. I spent several years weaning myself off of the fear...even though now, at nearly 20 years old, I still prefer to keep my socks on around people I don't know and have never owned a pair of sandals.
I have a fear of people touching my feet. I don't particularly like feet in general, but I get so afraid when somebody touches my feet. I refuse to get pedicures, and I'll scream if someone offers me a foot massage. I'll start freaking out if someone just bumps into my foot, or if someone touches my foot using an inanimate object. My sister was getting a pedicure a couple weeks ago, and I was there with her. I couldn't even watch her get a pedicure, I couldn't stand the look of the woman massaging my sister's foot. Most people that know about my weird foot phobia think I'm completely crazy, and touch my foot simply to see me in an anxiety attack. I don't really like people touching me in general, but it's absolutely horrible if it's my feet.
I hate feet. They discust me. Tough feet and looking at feet. Esspecially other peoples.
I havent found a name for my fear yet...its not that im scared of other peoples feet...they can touch theirs or do whatever with them...it doesnt matter to me but no one can look at or touch or talk about my feet, i completely freak out when people do...
hello. i have a phobia of feet and i think it's called podophobia..or so i've read somewhere on the net...hope it helps all of those who dont know the name for it...
at last! i have been the only person i know who is afraid of feet i know for like ever! i am glad i am not the only one there are other people like me! i too cannot stand other peoples bare feet near me it makes me feel sick, want to cry and shake with fear. the only bare feet i can just about stand are babies feet and my own. feet with socks on are not as bad as bare feet, but if i can see toes wiggling errgh! it makes me feel sick! people think, because it is a weird unheard of phobia, that it is funny, and make jokes about it and talk about feet near me, but when they see how it affects me, they realise that it is real!
I semi have a phobia with feet... I completely freak out if people touch my feet. I scream and try to get my feet as far away as possible. If someone touches my feet then I feel kind of queasy and want to cry. even if people are touching my feet bare, with socks, or with shoes it annoys me so much but other peoples feet aren't as bad but if they touch me I feel extremely grossed out and such. I am really glad that I'm not the only one with this phobia. my friends like to attack me or keep me occupied with one thing and touch my feet til I notice and It makes me feel like choking something.
I have a really big foot phobia. dey r really gross and freak me out.

Most Latino parents do not discuss bullying related to sexual orientation
with their children, although most think such attacks are wrong, regardless of
the youth's orientation, a recent survey indicates.
The findings from a nationwide survey of Latino parents released by Mental
Health America (MHA) in October are part of an effort to educate that
community about the mental health consequences of bullying, especially for
homosexual youth, who often make easy targets for bullies.
"It is critical to raise awareness in parents in general, and in
Latino parents in particular, because this survey.. .found that nearly a
quarter were unaware that bullying of gay students happens at all, even though
we know this is very common," said Sergio Aguilar-Gaxiola, M.D., Ph.D.,
board chair of MHA, during a conference call following the survey's
The July phone survey, which was offered in English or Spanish and
completed by 503 Latino adult respondents, found that nearly all Latino
parents (95 percent) believe it is important that their children get
information about sexual orientation directly from them, although a
substantial majority (64 percent) have not had such conversations with their
In addition, 70 percent said they do not feel they are prepared to talk
with their children about people who are gay. The study's authors noted that
particularly significant is that 63 percent of the surveyed parents believe it
is important for parents to teach their children that it is wrong to treat
other people differently because of their sexual orientation. Over
three-quarters of Latino parents (76 percent) participating in the survey said
it is harmful for children to tease each other for being gay—regardless
of whether they are in fact gay.
The study was conducted in response to increasing evidence on the dangers
of schoolyard bullying. In 2005 nearly one-third of students reported being
bullied at school during a six-month period, according to the U.S. Department
of Education. Perceived or actual sexual orientation and gender identification
are two of the top three reasons youth in America are bullied, according to
the Sex Information and Education Council of the United States."
Bullying and the use of gay slurs in schoolyards and communities are
far too common in America," said David Shern, Ph.D., president and CEO
of MHA.
It is no surprise that young people who are bullied are at an increased
risk of mental health problems such as anxiety disorders, depression, and
suicidal behavior. And lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) youth
are at even greater risk, according to studies on youth suicide rates and
sexual orientation, which consistently show that LGBT youth are at least twice
as likely as their same-sex peers to attempt suicide. Three million U.S.
teenagers have serious problems in school because they are taunted with
antigay slurs, according to a 2001 report by Human Rights Watch.
Nearly a quarter of Latino parents surveyed did not think that bullying of
gay students happens at all, while 59 percent of them agreed that bullying of
gay students does likely occur in their child's school.
Bullying has serious effects on children's self-esteem, schoolwork, and
overall development, Shern said. Although talking with their children about
sexual orientation may not be easy, he said, it will help them learn to better
handle situations of bullying and to respect and value others despite their
The MHA study focused on Latinos because of evidence from previous surveys
that more intolerance of gay youth occurs in minority communities, where LGBT
youth are described as a "minority within a minority" and at
greater risk of being bullying victims.
Such minority students feel less safe at school than white LGBT students do
because of their race or ethnicity, according to a 2005 national survey by the
Gay, Lesbian, and Straight Education Network. Almost a quarter of these
minority students experience physical harassment due to their sexual
orientation alone, and 13 percent do so because of both their sexual
orientation and race or ethnicity.
The survey echoes previous studies of minority and nonminority American
parents in which most acknowledged that they should talk to their children
about sexual orientation, but either have not or do not feel prepared to do
so, said Serena Yuan Volpp, M.D., chair of APA's Committee on Gay, Lesbian,
and Bisexual Issues.
"The intersection of culture, religion, and sexual orientation is
particularly complex in terms of parents' attitudes," Volpp noted.
The attitudes of parents were also defined by their level of acclimation to
America's culture. The survey found that parents who completed the phone
survey in English were more likely to oppose bullying and urge protection for
children attacked on the basis of sexual orientation.
While 54 percent of Latino parents who completed the survey in English
strongly agreed that parents should teach their children that it is wrong to
mistreat someone because they are gay, only 47 percent of Spanish-language
completers strongly agreed. In addition, 85 percent of parents who completed
the survey in English felt prepared to start a conversation with their
youngsters about someone who is gay, while 63 percent of those who completed
the survey in Spanish felt that way.
"All of this convinces me that we need to do quite a bit of outreach
with Spanish-speaking parents," said Aguilar-Gaxiola, who cited cultural
beliefs in the Spanish-speakers' homelands as the primary reason behind the
different responses.
Volpp said that although it is important to note that most parents do not
feel prepared to talk to their children about this issue, she is concerned
that about 1 in 4 of the parents strongly disagreed with the statement that it
is important to teach children that it is wrong to treat others differently
because they are gay.
Another part of MHA's outreach effort to the Spanish-speaking community was
the October release of a new Spanish-language brochure, "Qué
Significa Ser Gay?," which describes the extent of bullying related to
sexual orientation and suggests steps parents can take to stop it.
The results of the survey "What Does Gay Mean?: A Survey of
Latino Parents' Perspectives on Bullying, Sexual Orientation, and
Prejudice" are posted at<mentalhealthamerica.net/go/surveys>.▪

This review is from: Casio Men's Waveceptor Solar Atomic Ana-Digi Sport Watch
Pros: keeps great time. Accurate to within 1-2 seconds. This watch has solar-cells that recharge the battery. That means I will not need to replace the battery for the life of the watch (my estimate is 10 years).
Cons: I would prefer a metal watch band.

My Hopes for the Upcoming Election
My Main hope is that people aren't falling for the down right lies and half truths they saw in politic TV ads.I hope people did their work before voting and researched the candidates.They looked at their voting records not just took the crap they say as true facts.
I hope as a voter your just not a one trick pony where you only have one issue that you decide to vote on.I hope you truly vote for candidates that help you as a person not ones that cater to some special interest before the American People as a whole.
I hope you don't let the wealthy buy your vote and you sell out the middle class and poor because of false hopes they try selling.
I hope people who aren't serious about their vote stay home and leave voting to those who really care.
Truth,Justice,and the American way is not the slogan of the GOP Superman.
It's more like Lying, Corporate Greed , and the Wealthy Way. The GOP Superman wouldn't be like the Superman we grew up with, he would be fat,lazy ,and resemble one of the Koch Brothers. He wouldn't lift a finger to help the poor or even care.What powers would he have to lie and make lots of people believe those lies,to hide behind the congress he controls and make them do his bidding,he would be an invisible puppet master pulling he strings of the slaves he has converted to his cause.The stealing of the future from the American People.
The S on his chest would be a dollar sign,his suit the color of a crisp dollar bill.No One would ever call him for help unless they have a six figure income it would be a waste of time otherwise.
His Secret Identity has been cut down to these people
Paul Ryan
One of he Koch Brothers
Rush Limbaugh
It is one of the above , but it can't be determined which ,this Superman is fat and you would think that would eliminate Paul Ryan but it has been found out that he keeps a fat suit in his closet. Why?
Rush Limbaugh is fat and would fit the bill except his IQ is somewhere around 52 ,Is he smart enough?
The Koch Brothers are the most likeliest but which one or do they take turns.
We will keep investigating and find out
What nonsense will the GOP waste taxpayer money and time on next?
Well the list seams to grow daily with stuff like trying to repeal Obama Care,Benghazi,and other stupid meaningless crap.What will it be next stuff like making schools teach creationism or some other flat earth crap that has no bases in reality.
Wasting time telling women how they should deal with their health problems and issues based on religious beliefs not everyone shares.I always thought separation between church and state was the law of the land but the GOP keeps trying to force religion into politics.Weird Religion that says Rich and wealthy people have more value the middle class and poor.It's not that they even believe all the religious crap they just use it to hook the religious right.
They play to the southerns ,the religious ,the gun crazies,and others while they destroy unions,the poor,the middle class.they foment racism not directly but with code words like Foodstamp Queens,or other racially unacceptable words to garner the southern racist votes.
They play with fire and lead us towards civil war and race war that will only end badly for the United States.Stuff like what's happening in Ferguson may be repeated in many places across this country if we don't stop the racist southern states from going back to there good old days.Stop waving the confederate flag you lost get over it.
Liberty For All Doesn't Mean the Rich and their GOP Congressmen can Exploit the Poor ,Middle Class ,and Veterans
Is it Liberty For All if some people are being treated as being less like people then others?
Should some just because they where born into wealth be given the keys to the kingdom for doing nothing?
Even if they worked to become wealthy is that work more important then a worker in one of their factories or businesses?
If Your the GOP you would say yes
You would say nothing the poor does has any value ,Nothing the middle class does ,matters in the economy ,any veteran who goes to war shouldn't expect special treatment once they come home.
I of course would say the GOP is full of horse shit.
Anyone could be valuable to the future no one knows who at any time could do something to change the future to a better one.
Its not the makers of products that makes the economy work it's the consumers the middle class the keeps the system going.
Veterans should be treated with the utmost respect they have made the ultimate sacrifice some with their lives,some with their broken bodies,and some with their mental health.
They faced the nightmares,so the rest of us don't have to .not many in the GOP ever were on the battle field so they don't get that.
Ultimate Shop has been reborn
It makes it possible for me to run my various blogs on gun control ,green earth ,food ,pets and all the others my little online shop pays for web hosting of my blogs and helps me keep up my fight for better gun control, So give it a look at http://ultimateshop.info
Robin Williams called a coward by Fox News
Fox News proves again why no one should watch it.Really if you've never been in a deep depression you don't know what it's like.It's like being caught in quicksand and not getting out. you lose all drive you fell like nothing but dread it fills you completely and if you believe theres no way out.You can kill yourself if only this feeling will stop.
I was once depressed like that for 3 months if I wouldn't of got better sooner I wouldn't be alive today.
Feeling like your down the well with no way to climb out no matter what you do and if you think this feelings never going away That's depression so for Fox News to call anyone a coward shows how ignorant they are.
Hidden Fee's a way to hide the real cost of a service.
If you ever signed up for cable TV ,Satellite TV ,or some cellphone service because it said it was this price or that but you ended up paying about 20 to 30 dollars or more each month you got conned by the old hidden fee scam.How can they add more to the price it's easy and they do it all the time. They will say they need to add tax ok fine but then they add stuff like universal conductivity fees what the heck is that did they make that up.Why the heck do I have to pay money to the FCC why is that on my bill.Equipment rental fees why isn't that part of the original quoted price. I don't see how that get away with this crap why can't they give me the finally price with everything included so I don't waste my time going to sign up for whatever their selling. $79.95 should mean I get a bill for that amount with nothing else added. Stop trying to con people with deceptive advertising.OK I know this wasn't political or about gun safety but it's something I think is wrong.
@WWE No one who works likes the authority storyline #MITH
Anyone who works for an asshole boss isn't interested in or entertained by the current authority storyline.We get shit at work we don't want it on TV Think About That
used to be a fan of @WWE but they have gone lame #MITB
How predictable and boring can you be, Money in the bank a screw job no shit was expected.What happened to the attitude era why is it now the flatitude era.I think creative needs to get their head out of their butt and start coming up with better story lines.I could do a better job been watching wrestling for over 45 years seen it all.It has become crap in the WWE
Iraq the war we lost
I remember George Bush Standing in front of a sign saying mission accomplished but that's like over 10 year ago and nothings been accomplished.Iraq is a country that is in civil war,no weapons of mass destruction were ever found. There are more terrorists in Iraq then there ever was before so we in America are less safe instead of more safe.So I don't think any of the objective of the war were ever achieved so that means sorry to tell you this we lost.
So to all those who counted their chicken before they hatched American Soldiers lives were wasted for nothing.I know that's being brutally honest but that's the fact.
Billions wasted in money .Thousand of lives thrown away,and we are not one step closer to being safer .We are more likely closer to the next 911 to happen again.Thanks you George Bush

Noise-Arch is a huge fucking collection of underground/diy tapes from the 80s-90s, and it is awesome.
Stuff ranges from avant-garde, to punk, to hardcore, to rock, and there are even a few Subgenius creations in there, too. It's seriously amazing. Go poke around for an hour or ten.
"Eyes Wide Open" by Gotye
This is good too and the video is fantastic.
DID YOU KNOW: The guy that sang "Somebody I Used to Know" actually released an album FULL of songs, and they're all fanfuckingtastic.
M83 - Midnight City
One of these days I'm going to make a list of all of the perfect songs I can think of. This will definitely be on the list.
The first time I heard this was literally breathtaking.
Listening to that album was such an experience.

GlaxoSmithKline (GSK) late last month notified health care professionals
that it was strengthening product label warnings advising against the use of
paroxetine (Paxil, Paxil CR) by women who are pregnant.
The company cited newly analyzed data from a retrospective epidemiologic
study of major congenital malformations in infants, saying that"
preliminary results suggest an increase in the risk of congenital
malformations associated with the use of paroxetine as compared to other
Changes in the drug's labeling are being made after consultation with the
U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA).
Current FDA-approved labeling lists paroxetine as a pregnancy Category C
drug. Category C is defined as drugs with "no adequate and
well-controlled studies in humans to determine the effect on the fetus."
Current labeling reminds prescribers that paroxetine during pregnancy should
be used only if the potential benefit justifies the potential risk.
Information will be added to the product label indicating that of 3,581
pregnant women exposed to paroxetine or other antidepressants during the first
trimester, use of paroxetine, compared with other antidepressants, was
associated with an "increased risk of overall major congenital
Specifically, women who took paroxetine were 2.2 times more likely to give
birth to an infant with a major congenital malformation and 2.08 times more
likely to give birth to an infant with a cardiovascular malformation than
women on other antidepressants. Of 14 infants with a major congenital
malformation born to women taking paroxetine, 10 of those with cardiovascular
malformations had ventricular septal defects.
The new labeling goes on to note that a separate study based on the Swedish
Medical Birth Registry "evaluated 4,291 infants exposed to SSRIs in
early pregnancy. This study reported no increased risk for overall major
malformations in 708 infants born to women with paroxetine exposure early in
In the company's "Dear Healthcare Provider" letter regarding
the new labeling, GSK said that "it is important to note that because
the GSK study was designed to evaluate the relative risk of
congenital malformations in infants born to women exposed to antidepressants,
the study did not include a comparison to infants who were not exposed to any
antidepressant. Therefore, these data should be viewed within the context of
the overall prevalence of congenital malformations in the general population,
which is estimated in the U.S. to be approximately 3 percent for any
malformation, and approximately 1 percent for cardiovascular malformations
GSK reviewed other epidemiological studies of SSRI exposure during
pregnancy in its "Dear Healthcare Provider" letter, as well as
several case-control studies. In addition, it cited the National Birth Defects
Prevention Study of infants delivered from 1997 through 2001.
In that study, women who took any SSRI were more likely than those who were
not exposed to have an infant with omphalocele.
The strongest effect was reported in that study to be with paroxetine,
which accounted for 36 percent of all exposures to an SSRI. Infants born to
mothers taking paroxetine during the first trimester were found to be 6.3
times more likely to have an omphalocele compared with infants born to mothers
who took no SSRIs. An association was also found between SSRI exposure and
infants being born with craniosynostosis.
GSK concluded, "The differences in the results from the available
studies and the diversity in type of abnormalities recently reported makes it
difficult to definitively conclude a causal relationship for any particular
congenital abnormality with paroxetine."
The company, in cooperation with FDA requests, is conducting additional
epidemiologic studies "to more fully understand these preliminary

About MeI've been writing about TV/media/radio for more than 20 years. I consider it the best beat in town, even better than covering the Reds. I grew up in Middletown, where I watched Cincinnati and Dayton TV. I don't have a formal education in broadcasting, like most TV viewers. After earning a journalism degree from Ohio University in 1975, I started at the Cincinnati Enquirer as a summer intern. I covered county government and the suburbs (including the arrival of cable TV), and later was the suburban editor and features section editor. In 1985, I returned to writing as TV critic. For many years, I attended TV press tours in Los Angeles to preview new fall shows and to visit TV studios. Some of my favorite stories are from going to the sets of "Seinfeld" "Raymond," "The West Wing," "Cheers," and "Star Trek: The Next Generation," and interviewing George Clooney, David Letterman and Jay Leno.

Niners? Feh. Raiders? Bah. A's? Hah! Giants? Nah! Warriors? Who?
The San Jose Sharks are by far the best sports team in the Bay Area, bar none. The HP Pavilion is a terrific venue, and the Sharks are always entertaining, even when they lose (which is rarely). If you've never been to a pro hockey game, you have no idea what you're missing. The Sharks are going to win the Stanley Cup (maybe not this year, but certainly soon), and you REALLY don't know what you're missing if you've never been to a playoff hockey game. Every other sport pales in comparison. Take your earplugs. Go Sharks!
What does it say about me that I grew up with and love the Detroit Red Wings and now can't miss a San Jose Sharks game? Hockey tickets are still somewhat reasonable and it is the only sport that takes me home!

In this week's Weekend Project, we'll spend just ten minutes deleting and relocating our way to a more secure WordPress site.

Dinner in 30 minutes - Tandoori Crumbed Fish with Steamed Vegetables
Dinner in 30 Minutes - Tandoori Crumbed Fish with Steamed Vegetables
Serves 2
- Two fish fillets (I prefer to use Basa - though any white fish will do, e.g.: Barramundi or Ling)
- One garlic clove (or half a teaspoon of minced garlic)
- Quarter teaspoon tandoori paste
- 2 eggs
- Salt + pepper to taste
- Fresh or store-bought breadcrumbs
- Fresh vegetables (use what you like - I use a mixture of green beans, red capsicum, carrots, zucchini, broccoli - whatever is in season)
- Two tablespoons olive oil
1) Cut the fish fillets into 2 inch pieces.
2) Whisk the egg with the garlic, tandoori paste and seasoning in a small bowl.
3) Add fish to bowl, mix well, cover with plastic wrap and place in fridge for at least 30 minutes to marinate.
4) Chop vegetables, add to pot of boiling water and leave for 2 minutes, before removing and allowing to drain in colander until fish is ready.
5) Remove fish from egg mixture, allow excess egg to drip off, coat in breadcrumbs and place on plate.
6) Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over a low-medium heat in a medium sized frying pan, add fish and shallow fry on each side for 2-3 minutes until golden (add the second tablespoon of olive oil if pan goes dry and to keep breadcrumbs from burning).
7) Plate up fried fish on top of steamed vegetables and enjoy!

Tip:Don't be tempted to overuse the tandoori paste as it is quite potent and can overpower the flavour of the fish, not to mention being overly spicy!

Economics CPD Courses Coming up this Term!- Book Your Places Now!
WOW! Economics 2015 | Quantitative Methods (New Spec)
Unit 1: Cigarettes, demerit goods and government failure
Okay, hands up, how many of you economics teachers use cigarettes as one of your primary examples of a demerit good? Well, it does fit the bill and it gives you the opportunity to give teenagers a bit of a lecture about healthy living (if only the Ofsted inspector was there for that lesson).
The government's announcement today that they are to postpone the introduction of standardised packaging for cigarettes is bound to meet with some criticism - many will claim that they are giving in to pressure from a tobacco industry which feels that it is already heavily regulated. The concept is that a standard, plain package will put some people off from purchasing cigarettes as there is some research that says that people are attracted to the branding. Personally, until they put the phrase 'don't listen to your peers, they smell' on the box I'm not convinced the plan would have much impact anyway.
What intrigued me more about this story, is the fact that the government have postponed the plan until the impact of standardised packaging has been more closely studied in Australia (where the policy already exists). So there you go, not only is this a story about cigarettes as a demerit good but it is also an example of the government attempting to avoid policy failure. The government argues that it shouldn't spend money on implementing policies and then policing the tobacco firms and retailers if the impact of the programme is minimal. In a sense, the government are arguing that taking its time over this plan may save money in the long run or enable it to spend its scarce resources on a policy that has more impact.

Mirror's Edge 2 Potentially Leaked By Accurate German Amazon Site
Posted on Thursday, May 23 @ 19:37:47 Eastern by Daniel Bischoff
Everyone always gives me shit for like Mirror's Edge. You know what? Screw you guys. Mirror's Edge was a fun, if unimpressive game, with a neat concept, a hero that wasn't a bald fucking space marine who shot everything that moved, and allowed DICE to spread its wings and try something genuinely new. That's why I'm happy to report we might be learning all about Mirror's Edge 2 very soon.
I say might because this time it's an Amazon Germany listing giving us the impression that Electronic Arts will trot out onto Microsoft's stage at E3 and reveal that Mirror's Edge 2 is also part of the publisher's deal for Xbox One software. Amazon Germany has leaked these kinds of announcements in the past with accuracy, but let's each take a grain of salt anyway.
Still, it's not implausible; EA has stated that they believe Mirror's Edge is a valuable property worth developing a sequel for (get ready for it, because they've done it three times).
One thing's for sure, if EA were to reveal a new Mirror's Edge game, they'd do it at E3, where GameRevolution will be reporting live, covering every press conference as it happens and bringing back tons of hands-on previews, impressions, intereviews, news and more.

MLS Preview from The Sports Network (ET)
New York (3-5-5) at Kansas City (5-4-3), 8 p.m.
Kansas City, KS (SportsNetwork.com) - Both Red Bull New York and Sporting Kansas City will be eager to get back to winning ways on Tuesday when the two sides square off at Sporting Park.
New York has lost its last three games to slip to sixth in the Eastern Conference, while Sporting has managed to claim just one point from its three most recent outings.
Head coach Mike Petke saw his RBNY side lose a 5-4 thriller to Chicago before dropping a 2-0 contest at Toronto.
He was hopeful his side would snap that losing skid at home against a struggling Portland team on Saturday, but instead the losing continued as a pair of goals from Maximiliano Urruti canceled out the opener from Bradley Wright-Phillips for the Red Bulls.
Petke doesn't think his team is playing poorly, but rather he believes the problem could be mental.
"I think we have confident players, but perhaps it is a mental thing," Petke said of his team's recent struggles. "Perhaps it is a little bit a lack of confidence. I don't have that answer. I could try and find that answer as a coach, but I'm not in their head."
The continued success of Wright-Phillips will certainly help New York snap out of its funk as his goal on Saturday put him into a tie atop the MLS scoring chart with 10 goals.
Sporting has had trouble of its own in recent weeks with the club losing a pair of one-goal games to Philadelphia and Chicago before yielding a late equalizer in a 2-2 draw against Toronto FC last Friday.
Dom Dwyer continued his strong play with a pair of goals to put Sporting up, 2-1, with six minutes to play.
But a revamped defense was unable to hold the advantage and TFC scored in stoppage time through Bradley Orr to deny Sporting three points.
With top defender Matt Besler away on international duty, head coach Peter Vermes already had to shuffle his defense.
And that situation got worse when Chance Myers suffered a ruptured Achilles early in the second half of Friday's match that will keep him out for the rest of the season.
The injury will really test Sporting's depth in the back, but defender Kevin Ellis still managed to take some positives from Friday's result despite giving away the lead so late.
"This was a good test of our character," Ellis said after the match. "Every game is a battle, and tonight we really had to rise to the occasion. I feel like we did, but again, those two mistakes hurt us. They can easily be fixed and they won't happen next game."
With Besler and Myers out, Ellis will be one of the players who will be charged with slowing Wright-Phillips and the rest of the New York attack, while Sporting goalkeeper Eric Kronberg figures to be busy once again as he has conceded two goals in each of the past three games, which happened just once in Sporting's first nine matches this season.
