I believe that you may be looking at this backwards. Excellent tig welding skills can get applied to motorsports, but very rarely do excellent tig welding skills come from the motorsports field.
I would concentrate on emproving your tig skills through practice and application. After your experience is gained, you will realize that motorsports tig welding is not anything special. Quality tig welding, however, is special.

3/4 Length - Trousers & Tights
Please try broadening your selection by deselecting or clearing the filters on the left.
Unsure what the weather's going to be like when you set out on your ride? The perfect solution could be 3/4 length cycling trousers, which can be worn year-round, making them great value for money. Many have storage features and comfortable padding, and come in durable fabrics to repel water – great if you get caught in a shower. And if it's lycra you're after, we also have 3/4 length cycling tights, with separate designs for both men and women. We stock bestselling brands such as Castelli and Endura.

The first step in addressing a medical problem—whether it's a blocked artery, a tumor, or broken bone—is to find its precise location within the body, accurately measure it, and provide a "roadmap" that guides physicians during treatment. The staff of Bridgeport Hospital's Radiology department, including physician-radiologists and radiology technologists, uses all the available state-of-the-art technology for this purpose.
Bone Density Scan – Bone density scans are produced with X-rays or CT technology, measure bone content, mass and strength. This testing procedure is primarily used to diagnose osteoporosis, a disease in which there is loss of bone mass and destruction of bone tissue, and thus a greater risk of fracture, particularly among older patients.
CT or CATScans (Computerized Axial Tomography) – CAT scans use X-rays and computers to produce images of the soft tissue within the body, including the brain. These images are used to look for signs of disease or trauma in the body.
Fluoroscopy – A digital fluoroscopy shows body systems as they move, including the skeletal, digestive, urinary, respiratory, and reproductive systems.
Mammography – A mammogram is an X-ray image of the breast, used to check for tumors or other abnormalities. Mammography may also be performed on healthy, normal breasts to provide a baseline reference for later comparison.
MRI – An MRI, or magnetic resonance image, produces very clear images of the body without X-rays. Instead, MRI uses a large magnet, radio waves, and a computer to produce these images.
Nuclear Medicine – Like PET scanning, this procedure assesses bodily function. It has similar applications, but is more widely used in functional assessment of bone, thyroid, gastrointestinal, cardiac, renal (kidney), and other systems, and is very helpful in detecting infections. Nuclear medicine is commonly used during stress tests for coronary artery disease. A radioactive material is injected into the patient's vein so that an image of the heart becomes visible with a special camera. Nuclear images are taken while the patient is at rest, and again immediately following exercise. The two sets of images are then compared. During exercise, if a blockage in a coronary artery causes decreased blood flow to part of the cardiac muscle, this region of the heart will appear as a relative "cold spot" on the nuclear scan.
PET Scan – A PET scan (Positron Emission Tomography) is a highly specialized imaging technique that produces three-dimensional colored images to provide information about the body's chemistry. Unlike CAT or MRI scans, which look at anatomy, or body form, PET studies metabolic activity, or body function. In most cases, a PET scan begins with an injection of a tracer substance into a vein in the patient's arm. The tracer material gathers in cancer cells or other abnormalities in the body, highlighting them on the images produced by the PET scan. PET has been used primarily in oncology. In addition, it has been used in cardiology and neurolgy to assess the benefit of coronary artery bypass surgery, identify causes of childhood seizures and adult dementia, and provide early diagnosis of cardiac and neurological conditions.
Ultrasound – This is a test used to diagnose a wide range of diseases. High-frequency sound waves, inaudible to the human ear, are transmitted through body tissues. The echoes are recorded and translated into video or photographic images that are displayed on a monitor for diagnosis. Many patients are familiar with ultrasound imaging of the fetus, heart, and gallbladder. Blood vessels are well visualized and blockages and aneurysms are well seen using ultrasound.
X-ray – This is the "granddaddy" of imaging tools. First used in the late 1800s, X-rays continue to play a prominent role in medical diagnosis. An X-ray is a high-energy beam used in low doses to diagnose a variety of conditions ranging from broken bones to abnormal tissue growth such as tumors. X-rays are also used in high doses to treat tumors. (See Radiation Medicine)

OKLAHOMA CITY — In a rematch of last year's National Basketball Association Finals, the Miami Heat visited the Oklahoma City Thunder on Thursday night at Chesapeake Energy Arena, already owning a win at home earlier in the season.
LeBron James set an NBA record with 30-plus points and 60-plus percent shooting over the past six games, and was looking to extend that streak.
On the other hand, the Thunder was trying to bounce back after a tough outing Tuesday night at Utah. Although the Thunder was able to stop James' streak of 60-percent shooting, he continued his 30-plus scoring with 39 points and led the Heat to a convincing 110-100 victory over the Thunder in the final game before the All-Star Break.

TriMet has relocated the westbound bus stop at SE Powell Blvd. and Powell Garage Drive (Bus Line #9 Powell - Stop ID 4543). The passenger stop was relocated for public safety due to construction on the Portland Water Bureau's new Kelly Butte reservoir. The new bus stop is located about one block east near SE Powell Blvd. and SE 99th Ave., and will stay in this temporary location until 2015. Additional information on Bus Line #9 is available online.
For help in planning a trip or locating information on travel and walk times, transfers and cost, visit TriMet's online trip planner.
The Portland Water Bureau began replacing the 10-million gallon above ground steel tank atop Kelly Butte in southeast Portland with a 25-million-gallon underground concrete reservoir in July 2012. The new reservoir will be in the same general place, but will have a larger footprint. This project, and the new 50-million gallon reservoir now under construction at Powell Butte Nature Park, will allow the City of Portland to comply with federal safe drinking water requirements and reduce the seismic vulnerability of east side drinking water storage facilities.
The Kelly Butte Reservoir project is scheduled to be completed by the end of 2014. Process updates and photos are available on the Portland Water Bureau's website.

The tears have long since dried from the last time the Thomas S. Wootton High School field hockey team took the field at Walter Johnson. The sting has subsided in the 333 days between the double-overtime loss the Wildcats dealt to the Patriots in the 4A West Region finals and Monday afternoon's matchup between the county's top-ranked field hockey teams. But nothing quite puts a devastating loss in the rear view like exacting revenge on that very team's home turf, which is what No. 1 Wootton promptly did at No. 2 Walter Johnson.
It took just 24 minutes, 32 seconds for the Patriots to score as many goals on Walter Johnson as the first five teams combined (2), and Wootton went on to win 3-0 in surprisingly dominant fashion.
"It feels really good," Wootton coach Kearney Blandamer said. "That night we were kind of off and WJ played a great game and they got to win that night. But this season is a totally new season and as much as that loss hurt, we're just looking forward and we have big dreams and big hopes and we're going to do everything in our power to achieve them."
Thus far, there has been nothing that has even served as a speed bump to those dreams, whatever it is they may be. Now six games into the season, not a single team has come closer than three goals on the Patriots, who have outscored their opponents 37-2. Even Winston Churchill and the second-ranked Wildcats were dropped by a combined 6-0, though Blandamer credited the Bulldogs as being a very tough test nonetheless.
As easy as Monday's win wound up being for the Patriots, however, the opening 14 minutes went how the game could have largely been expected to go throughout the contest: mostly a battle for possession with a few runs made here and there, but nothing all too dangerous. Then Wootton center midfielder Alex Yokley sent in a bounding cross for Allie Band at the left corner of the cage and the senior redirected it in for her sixth goal of the season. That was apparently the impetus Wootton needed for its juggernaut of an offense to get started.
Over the next 16 minutes, Wootton's relentless attack amounted to eight penalty corners to Walter Johnson's zero, nine shots on goal to Walter Johnson's zero, and another goal, this time from Yokley's own stick, to send the Patriots into the half up 2-0.
"I think now we're all sharing one brain. Everybody knows what the other is going to do so they just know where the ball is going to go," said Yokley, who ran her season total to six goals and three assists. "We're all working really well together."
The second half would follow the aggressively offensive script the Patriots have been following all year. Wootton took seven more penalty corners and battered WJ goalie Hannah Teicher with another 10 shots before Hannah King notched the third and final goal of the game. Meanwhile, the Wildcats managed zero shots on goal and zero penalty corners, leaving coach Erika Murray just about speechless afterwards.
"Where do I start?" Murray said. "We didn't even show up for the game. Period. We did nothing that we worked on at practice. I don't even know what to say. Bottom line is they didn't show up."
Walter Johnson 0, Wootton 3
Walter Johnson (5-1) 0 0 — 0
Wootton (6-0) 2 1 — 3
Wootton — Allie Band, Alex Yokley, Hannah King.
Wootton — Alex Yokley, Julia Lee.

A proposed ban on sales of assault weapons would be defeated in the U.S. Senate today unless some members changed their current views, based on a Bloomberg review of recent lawmaker statements and interviews.
At least six of the 55 senators who caucus with Democrats have recently expressed skepticism or outright opposition to a ban, the review found. That means Democrats wouldnt have a simple 51-vote majority to pass the measure, let alone the 60 votes needed to break a Republican filibuster to bring it to a floor vote.
A ban on the military-style weapons is among the legislative goals President Barack Obama outlined in his recommendations to Congress on curbing gun violence after the Dec. 14 Sandy Hook Elementary School slaughter of 20 children in Newtown, Connecticut. Vice President Joe Biden said today it will take persuasion and information to garner the necessary support in Congress to enact the White House package.
We have an obligation to act -- not wait, Biden told reporters after a more than two-hour roundtable at Virginia Commonwealth University to discuss the administrations push for new gun-safety measures.
Yesterday, Democratic Senator Dianne Feinstein of California introduced legislation to outlaw sales of assault- style weapons during a news conference where survivors of past shootings, some of them with bullets still lodged in their bodies, urged its passage.
At that event, Feinstein said its unclear whether the fight is winnable. We dont know, its so uphill, she said. It depends on the courage of Americans.
The five Democratic senators from traditionally pro-gun states who have recently expressed skepticism about the bill are Max Baucus and Jon Tester of Montana, Mark Begich of Alaska, Heidi Heitkamp of North Dakota and Joe Manchin of West Virginia. Independent Senator Angus King of Maine, who is caucusing with Democrats, also said he opposes a ban.
Maine Senator Susan Collins, a Republican who supported similar legislation in 2004, has indicated she is unlikely to back the proposed ban in its current form.
The 1994 assault weapons ban, signed by President Bill Clinton, expired in 2004 and, until the school shooting in Newtown, theres been little effort in Congress to renew it.
Great news!!!
At least the 2nd amendment is holding up better than the rest did.

Economy of Scale
Case in point. I do have a welding project for myself in which I will use 4 recently purchased Blackjack Jack Stands. When I found these stands, they were marked $55.00 USD. Stands like this I have found online or elsewhere from $95.00 to $199.00. These were a steal. These were the last ones Airgas Lubbock had in stock and they wanted to get them out of inventory. They actually sold them to me for $52.50 each because I bought some other supplies as well. What I paid for the stands would not have covered the cost of buying the matierals to make them myself let alone finding the time to cut out all the pieces and welding them together. Again, this begs the question, "What is your time worth?" Sometimes its more economical to purchase something readybuilt for your needs instead of building it yourself. Besides, the guy who built my stands, that is his business, making stands for others so they can get on with doing their own jobs.'77 Miller Bluestar 2E on current service truck

Well said guys! By the time I drive around picking up material and cutting and prepping the stuff and the fitting it together then welding it out and then giving it a paint job!!! I might as well let a pipestand company make them! Not to mention the pi$$n around trying to build a jig!
There's nothing wrong with building your own stuff but like it was said what's your time worth?

I have used GBR stands for the past 20 years or so. IMO these stands are the best on the market and i have tried most all of them over the years. They are sturdy, SAFE and they carry a mulitude of accessoies for them not to mention ENGINEERED. Do yourself a favour and buy GBR you wont regret it.

I was in Arrow Welding last week and seen those Javelin stands and they are a good looking stand. Foldable is another factor when carrying a dozen or so on your rig and I'm actually considering picking up a couple and give them a try.
Oh yeah, have a look at the Javelin ground clamps. Awesome!

crushed red pepper flakes
red bell peppers, thinly sliced and cut into bite-size lengths
1 pound
boneless pork chops
This was a very tasty and EASY recipe. Didn't change a thing as a true review should be in my opinion and we LOVED it over rice. Even better 2 days later when I mixed the pork mixture with the rice and warmed it up in a skillet.
3-3.5 stars. This was very easy, different and has potential to be even better. I think some crushed peanuts and sliced green onions for garnish would go a long way with this dish. I added my peppers at the end so they would retain some crunch.

Excellent recipe, quick to put together. I added the pork chops frozen and upped the cook time by 3 hours. We ate it over rice in complete silence, we didn't want to stop! Next time I'll add fresh onion, and add pea pods at the end or asparagus. Make plenty of sauce!!!
Extremely easy and quick to make, few ingredients, and very yummy! I added more red pepper flakes to mine to make it spicier and more veggies. Orange peppers and broccoli are a great addition. I think something crunchy in texture was definitely missing, perhaps crushed peanuts added for garnish. Next time I'm going to try this with a little cocounut milk and cilantro too. Should be wonderful!
Delicious! Very simple to make, really. I made this almost exactly the same as the recipe--I used 1 enormous yellow bell pepper (when chopped it was like 2 normal-sized peppers) and also added broccoli to the pot. I also added a smidge more crushed red pepper since we like spicy food and I found out later my husband snuck in another spoonful of peanut butter while it was cooking. The flavors were great--sweet and spicy and a little smokey somehow, all at once. Adding broccoli is a must in my opinion as it sucks up the sauce and just explodes with flavor in your mouth. I put in the veggies in the beginning as the recipe states and thought they held up pretty well--no crunch of course, but they didn't cook into mush, they were just really soft which was nice. Served over brown rice and may add carrots or some more peppers next time for more veggies, as we definitely had plenty of sauce to go around. Definitely a keeper for us!
This was great! The only thing I did different was cube the pork into one inch pieces before I put in slow cooker, no need to shred! Served with rice noodles and ginger carrots (from this website). Next time, I may add a little bit more red pepper spice, but it was still great!
I thought this recipe was pretty good and had a nice flavor. I used unsalted all natural peanut butter and had a hard time blending the sauce so I used my immersion blender on the sauce to combine everything before adding the pork chops. I also used one green pepper and one red pepper, adding them 1.5 hours before serving (when I shredded the pork). This allowed the peppers to cook and absorb some flavor but not be mushy.
Yummy served atop Jasmine rice....don't shred the meat! Cut boneless chops into strips and don't add the bell peppers until the last half-hour of cooking or they will disintegrate. I also cut the ginger in half...way too much for only 1 lb. of meat, and although I LOVE garlic, some of my cloves were pretty big so I only used 4, which I thought gave it plenty of garlic flavor. Sprinkled some fresh chopped cilantro on top & a squeeze of fresh lime, too. Enjoy with an ice cold beer! :-)

@scw's answer would be the first thing to to try.
I have experienced the empty extension list on a workstation with extensions installed. If memory serves me right, I did a repair on the registry with the ArcGIS Desktop installer and that fixed things.
I think it was:
Perhaps the extensions you're interested in aren't installed on the machine? ArcGIS will only list installed extensions. You can add them by visiting the control panel, 'add/remove programs', selecting ArcGIS and clicking 'change' which should allow you to install new extensions (you'll need the installation media to install the extension).

Comic 58
Link: Comic 58
Title: Rupert hits the town - part 3
Date: March 21, 2005
Summary: Steve microwaves a cockroach.
Cast: Beaver, Steve, Rupert T. Roach
Onomatopoeias used: "BLEP!", "WHIRRRR", "GRAAAA!", "PING!"
Number of panels: 4
Panel 1
Steve: (operating the microwave) "Hmm... what setting shall I use?"
Panel 2
Steve: "...this one'll do"
Steve presses the "MUTATE" button with a BLEP!
Rupert: "What fun! A whirlygig!"
Panel 3
Beaver: (entering the scene) "Mmm... that smells good. What's cooking?"
Microwave WHIRRRR's.
Panel 4
Microwave PING!'s, a mutated Rupert breaks out with a GRAAAA!
Steve: "Uh... pizza?"
Fun Facts
The timer on the microwave reads "00:00" throughout this comic. As James explained, "It starts instantaneously after the end of the 2nd panel, and beaver speaks in the third panel just as it reaches zero. We see the zero before we hear the ping because light travels faster than sound. I have it all figured out." (Reference)
Apparently Beaver has a full set of teeth behind his bucktooth, as evidenced by the last panel.
The "Uh... pizza?" line may be a reference to the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles episode "Case of the Killer Pizzas" where Baxter places eggs on pizzas that hatch when baked in a microwave, the creatures mutate into large killers further in the episode.

I drive back and forth from Vancouver, BC to Alberta for work twice a month and see every type of weather/road condition. Snow, ice, rain, sleet, slush, mud on the lease roads, sand, gravel etc etc. The Silent Armors do very well in most everything but deep mud and on ice. 4x4 and these tires in my 6000lb Tahoe makes deep snow a joke. Quiet and comfortable on the highway, handling isn't great but the nature of the vehicle has a lot to do with that. Bought the vehicle with about 80% tread and after 15,000km of driving there's no noticeable wear. Duratracs much better off road but wear quickly, BFG A/T's are worse in all respects. I'd buy another set.

Bought a set of 4 of these from Fountain Tire (11107 - 158 St, Edmonton, AB) and I am not impressed.
First, the tire itself does not handle well in snow. Living in Edmonton, snow is here 6 months of the year. These tires are probably THE worst I have ever had.
Second, I bought them from the above store on a sale. The store didn't change valve stems or balance the tires. They just threw them on quickly to get me out. The Goodyear sale was why I thought they acted this way, but because I was saving some $$, I just drove away.
I won't be going back to the above location, nor would I ever by SilentArmour again living where I do.

These are not an off-road tire after 7yrs I had 3 rock shots. But if you are looking for a tire to travel the highways in the Rocky Mountains and take what ever Mother Nature has to throw at you. Give you an extra long life. Then these are the tires. That I would throw on.

closed as off-topic by Mr. Bultitude, curiousdannii, fredsbend, DJClayworth, bruised reed Jun 6 at 8:55
This question appears to be off-topic. The users who voted to close gave this specific reason:
Note: This answer comes from the perspective of the Old Testament alone, since the question was in regard to the Ten Commandments and gives no indication that it's seeking a "Christian" perspective, but does give indication that it's seeking a historical perspective (since it references the Ten Commandments).
History of the ten Commandments
Why is rape not included among the these commandments? Because there are many things (including homosexuality, having sex with your fathers wife, not wearing clothes made of both wool and cotton, etc.) that are not in them.
The Ten Commandments were originally written on stone tablets after Moses ascended Mount Sinai. Their purpose was to provide a set of basic, simple laws that would hold the nation of Israel over until they got the full Levitical law.
The Levitical law was not given until the book of Leviticus, after the Ten Commandments had been given. These commandments were not meant to be all-encompassing, but simply meant to give them the top-ten basic laws that God wanted the Israelites to obey until they could get the complete Law.
Rape defined
It is important to note that "rape" during those days was not a crime against a woman, but rather a crime against the head of the household (History of Rape).
To understand how rape plays out in the Old Testament, it is important to understand adultery. Adultery was a sin that had the death-penalty associated with it.
However, if the man were to rape another man's wife, only the man would die, since he is the one that committed the act of adultery.
Note that in Old Testament times, betrothal came after the marriage price had been paid. The groom and the bride at that point were effectively married, although there was a waiting period before they could live together.
Now, if a man rapes a woman who is not pledged to be married, then he has not committed adultery and did not deserve death. Instead, he was forced to pay the marriage price, taking the girl/woman as his wife.
What these laws are showing is that rape is not "non-consensual" sex as we think of it today. It's actually a crime against the man who "owns" the woman (for lack of a better term). The crime committed in the case of a betrothed or married girl is the crime of adultery. The crime committed in the case of a non-betrothed, unwed girl is the crime of not paying for something that you've taken.
The punishment for rape back then was the same as the punishment for either adultery or stealing, based on the marital status of the girl.
This also means... there is nothing in the Old Testament saying that non-consensual sex with your wife is wrong.
Rape as Adultery/Theft
With the definition above, we see that rape carried the punishment of either adultery or theft, based on the marital status of the girl/woman. With that in mind, the laws of adultery and stealing were in the Ten Commandments:
If we compare these laws established in the Ten Commandments with the rules established in Deuteronomy, we see that rape was considered either stealing or adultery.
Because of this, the root law that is being violated is actually covered in the these commands.
Rape, from the Old Testament perspective, is either considered adultery or thievery (based on the marital status of the woman). Those two root laws are specifically mentioned in the Ten Commandments. Therefore, the two laws that might be broken from a given rape are actually written there.
Not every sinful act is spelled out in the ten commandments, but every possible sinful act does fall under one or more of the umbrellas. Rape is adultery as well as theft and envy and does not honor the Lord. That's at least four "counts". How much does one need to know that it's wrong?
In the NT we find the ten commandments expounded to include thoughts about the action and heart attitudes as well as the spelled out actions. In short, not having the act of rape spelled out in a commandment is not an oversight, the topic is well covered. I have never heard it alleged that Christianity allowed rape based on it not being the 11th commandment.
The Bible does address the issue of rape. As expected, when the Bible mentions the crime of rape, it is depicted as a gross violation of God's design for the treatment of the human body (Genesis 34). The Bible condemns rape whenever it is mentioned. For example, there is a particular passage in the laws given to the nation of Israel before entering the Promised Land under Joshua's leadership. This passage (Deuteronomy 22:13-29) spoke directly against forcing a woman into a sexual encounter against her will, or what we know today as rape. This command was meant to protect women and to protect the nation of Israel from committing sinful actions.
Deuteronomy 22:25-27 mentioned the punishment the Mosaic Law commanded for a man who raped a woman. The man was to be killed by stoning while the woman was considered innocent. Though the Mosaic Law was for the nation of Israel during the time of Moses, the principle is clear that rape was sinful in the eyes of God and led to the most extreme punishment possible—death for the rapist.
There are some difficult passages in the Old Testament, however, in relation to this issue. Critics of the Bible are quick to point to Numbers 31 (and other similar passages) in which the Israelites were allowed to take female captives from nations they conquered. Critics make the accusation that this is an example of the Bible condoning, or even promoting, rape. However, the passage says nothing about raping the captive women. It is wrong to assume that the captive women were to be raped. Again, Deuteronomy 22:25-27 condemns rape, even advocating the death penalty for perpetrators of rape. In the Numbers 31 passage the soldiers were commanded to purify themselves and their captives (verse 19). Rape would have violated this command (see Leviticus 15:16-18). The women who were taken captive are never referred to as sexual objects. Did the captive women likely eventually marry amongst the Israelites? Yes. Is there any indication that rape or sex slavery was forced upon the women? Absolutely not.
In the New Testament, rape is not mentioned directly, but within the Jewish culture of its writers, rape would have been considered as sexual immorality. As such, both Jesus and His followers (including the apostle Paul) spoke against sexual immorality, even offering it as justifiable grounds for divorce when a person actively committed sexual acts outside of the bond of marriage (Matthew 5:32). This would not, however, apply to the victim of rape, only the one who committed the act.
Further, the New Testament is clear that Christians are to obey the laws of their governing authorities (Romans 13). Not only is rape morally wrong; it is also wrong according to the laws of our governing authorities. As such, anyone who would commit this crime should expect dire consequences, including arrest and imprisonment.

It is:
No. 7 Thou shalt no commit adultery
Rape is a form of adultery (unless you're married).
Jesus tells us how to interpret the commandment not to kill, namely that it is even a sin to call your brother stupid. I think it is fair to say that Jesus generalized that commandment to one that absolutely forbids violence against persons, be it physical or "only" verbal.
Of course, this would also cover rape.
I've heard that the 10 commandment is there for "category" of prohibition. Rape would go to don't steal I guess. By raping you are stealing "usage right" from the girl or the parent.
In a sense rape is indeed prohibited. In ancient hebrew, rape is actually punished by fine that can be quite high. That's how we define something as prohibited, namely that there is a punishment.
The difference is on what's the punishment and how do we measure damage.
In ancient time they don't have jail. Jail is a very expensive innovation. So the only punishment besides stoning possible are either fine or canning.
Jewish halakha actually prescribe that the rapists must pay for the pain and for the drop of the market value of the girl. The 50 shekel is only for the pleasure
The judge would estimate how much the girls' market value is. Maybe the judges would auction of the girl and shill bid it to get the correct market value of the girl as sex slave. Maybe they just estimate. Got to ask the jews again.
So raping Selena Gomez is still off the chart. In ancient time people do not have bankruptcy laws. So if you can't pay you become slaves, which is like going to jail.
Some may think it's disgusting. However, we may have to consider:
I will have to ask the jews again now that we can decide fatherhood by DNA tests, what would Rabam says about sex outside marriage and rape.
Jews do not think sex outside marriage as a big deal. It never get death penalty. Only on some circumstances it can get pretty serious.
You can read here: http://judaism.stackexchange.com/questions/11021/what-does-adultery-mean-in-the-7th-commandment/11032#11032
Which explains why prostitution is legal in Israel I guess.
Because the 10 Commandments have little to do with ethics and everything to do with (a) creating an orderly society and (b) distinguising the Jewish community from its neightbours. Women were generally regarded as property by the culture of the time, which wrote the commandments.

Bitching about the WH for not providing enough security for embassies yet cutting funding for the said purpose. Grandiose.
I declare the GOP unamerican and unpatriotic and a danger to our national security.
It really doesn't matter at this point if the staff was at the levels requested by embassy staff. No. What matters is the charge of the GOP, Romney and Ryan that the WH did not increase security to prevent the Benghazi attacks. Cutting funding and then shifting blame. Fantastic.

"Broke my last photo frame!"
By Georgia
Comments: I had a similar frame like this for the longest, and somehow it broke! I was really sad because the frame had a beautiful message from my mother. For my birthday, my mother gave me a present and when I opened it was this photo frame! I was ecstatic to have a similar one since I was looking everywhere to replace the broken one. I love it very much. It means a lot to me and I will take extra care! Thank you!!

OK.....I'm ****ing pissed. I get an infraction for calling P4E a "queer little troll"
Queer means odd or strange.....just because a certain group of people appropriated it does not mean i have to use it in the way they mean. People getcalled trolls on here all the time
Man, **** this ****ing ****.....that kind of **** is why you lose posters......
Fat, drunk and stupid is no way to go through life
I have honestly been watching the gun debate threads pretty damn close the past few weeks and let me say I had one selected and almost moved it into the depths the other night to avoid handing out infractions. I continued to read the thread and saw the debate turned back into a civil discussion so I left it but it was close to going.
Being a mod is honestly a thankless job, half the time most posters think you are like a cop or something waiting to write them a ticket and the other half are usually yelling about us being unfair or over restrictive but both couldn't be farther from the truth. We just keep the debate civil, nothing more nothing less and if Matt (the owner) said tomorrow make it no holds bared it would be because the bottom line is, it is his site alone but he loves the Fins enough to make it so that we all have a place to chat and his vision includes the TOS.

I am 5'6" 135lbs and I got the medium. The length is perfect. My only complaint is that the back side is just a little too snug, and the front is just a little too baggy. I actually roll the elastic waist once over only in the front, not in the back to compensate for the baggy front. I like to wear my pants at my hips and the rise is a little high. Other than that fit complaint, they are very very comfortable. I love running in them because the material is slick and there is no friction on my skin when my thighs rub together while exercising. The material is nice and thick and warm and they are obviously well made and I'm sure will last forever. ... read more
Not the greatest ankle support. But for those of you who want a quick, easy, durable and not to mention supportive ankle strap this is it. I've tried some ankle braces before, some where too bulky or too thin without providing support. This strap provides all of the elements that I was looking for in an ankle strap. It is lightweight, not too bulky, supportive and really easy to wear and take off. The only thing that kept me from giving it 5 stars is that it is a little overpriced. Paying $60 for a pair sounds a little pricey. I think $20 each for these straps sounds more reasonable. ... read more
I grew up wearing these track suits playing basketball! It's nice to not worry about an ultra low rise for a change! They were initially meant to be worn over your uniforms so they are roomy, not fitted. At 5'4" and 130lbs a small in this pant fits well. Don't laugh at the position I played (down below)!! LOL. Small but mean :) Love the quality fabric and construction - I own several pairs (I won't embarrass myself by admitting how many I own) and have encouraged other women I work with to buy them as well :) Last for years. Colors never fade. Timeless. ... read more
I have worn Adidas original fitness pants and have had great success in past years. Now that I am reaching 65, retired and have gone through some major medical issues, I found that I wanted some new Adidas pants so that I would once again be successful with my exercise program. The size and fit are great and they feel very comfortable to the skin. They will get me to the summer and a slimmer me. ...a little too warm for summer exercise. ... read more
Breathability: 8.5/10 The breathability of this ankle wrap really surprised me. Most ankle braces make my ankle sweat and hot, but with the adiZero construction it made my ankle cooler. And the coolness leading to better performance on the court. Ankle Support: 9.5/10 These ankle brace's ankle support are outstanding. Not just some fabric that you throw together and call a ankle brace, but this brace is built tough. A hard shell on the outside bone of your ankle prevents any hyperextension. I would say this ankle support is more of a preventer that a healing brace. Fit: 8/10 The fit of this ankle wrap, to me, was a little more on the tighter side. I wear a size 10.5 and thought I would get a size M brace, that might be my mistake. But the tightness turned out to my advantage a bit. Material: 8.5/10 The adiZero material is great, one of my all time favorites of adidas shoes. The brace feels like it would stand up to a lot of abuse. However, once worn a lot, it could develop visible fold creases which might not look that attractive. Longevity: 8.5/10 This brace would definitely last me a long time build on it's construction. adidas products have always been a first for me. Hope this review helped some of you! ... read more
When I hurt my ankle playing in the Kobe's, my peers and my coach said that it would be best that I get an ankle brace until I get better. Naturally, I got the ones that D.rose wears because he is my favorite player and these are the ones he wears. But I still had my doubts because I thought they would be uncomfortable, limit my mobility, or take away from my game. And when I played in them, I saw that I was wrong. They were super comfortable, didn't take away from my mobility or my vertical, and kept my ankles protected. I was very satisfied with them, so much that I will still wear them if my ankle is just bothering me. Great ankle braces. At first I wondered why they were priced so high. 60 dollars for both??? But now I understand. I feel like i payed for quality. ... read more
Love this classic Adidas jacket - grew up wear them to basketball practice and STILL love the fit and construction. I like my jackets a little roomy so I can wear a little something underneath - so at 5'4" 130lbs a medium is my fit choice. I like that the jacket and pants are not a total match - complementary but not matchy-matchy. The fabric is top notch - pant and jacket will last for years - mine are a testament to that. No color fade, no shrinkage. I have several .. in all colors... mix and match. Can't beat them! I prefer this to the yoga look... don't need to look like I'm running around in long johns, thank you very much. ... read more
I already had a pair of these that I had purchased in a store that have been a staple of my wardrobe but were now worn after many years. I wasn't sure when I ordered these if they would be the same but they were. The only difference was that mine had zip pockets which I liked, but the pockets are deep enough that it doesn't really make a difference. I am 5'8" and have a hard time getting sweats long enough (especially after washing) but these (large) are perfect, they don't shrink. Yes, they are heavy but that's what I like about them. Try wearing other sweat pants in the winter. These keep me warm and toasty when I take my dog for walks and it's cold out. You will need lighter weight ones for the summer. ... read more
This is awesome. I got it yesterday at an Adidas store and it is perfect size. There is no need to buy a size smaller or bigger. Speedwraps fit the size of your shoes. It really does prevent your ankles from rolling and keep them protected. This is only $30 and is cheap compared to other ankle braces. It is also super light. Best Adidas accessory ever and I seriously recommend it to all of you guys looking for ankle braces. ... read more
I received the gray pants with hot pink stripes for Christmas, and they fit so well! I normally have trouble finding athletic pants that are long enough for me. These pants have not shrunk after washing, and they are very cozy. The adjustable drawstring waist allows me to cinch in the pants and I don't have to sacrifice a larger waist for longer pants! ... read more
I've aloways loved Adidas but this pants was too heavy, too long, and somewhat larger than most "S" sized Adidas I've purchased in the past. I wanted the thinner material that looks just like the illustration. Next time, please indicate weight, example light, medium, heavy weights, or good for summer or winter. Would be nice to indicated if Petite sizes are available. Use pants for fitness, yoga, pilates, zumba, etc. ... read more
I saw a web interview that Derrick Rose did and he spoke about how much that he loved the Adizero Speedwrap Ankle Brace and since I already bought the Adizero shoe, I figured I'd try it out.

This ankle brace helped a lot and now I can't imagine playing ball without it ... read more
Love these!! They are extremely light and not so bulky opposed the first edition of the SpeedWraps, which I purchased also. Not only does these give great support, but your much more mobile and can slash to the court much quicker and feel confident you not going to sprain your ankle. They fit great with the Adizero DRose shoes as well. Must have!! ... read more

I've had to wear ankle braces or tap for almost 8 years now, so i know my way around braces. in terms of comfort speed and visual aesthetic these braces are the top of crop. Ive been taped ive worn, elastic support and light weight lace ups and light weight figure eight wraps, but in my experience these are the best. The fit is exceptional and it makes me feel secure and confident in my abilities, basketball is 90% confidence anyway, like most things its a mental game ... read more

The Senate unanimously approved a nonbinding resolution on Tuesday calling for the United Nations Security Council to impose a no-fly zone over Libya and urged Libyan leader Muammar el-Qaddafi to resign and allow a peaceful transition to democracy.
The resolution, offered by Sens. Robert Menendez, D-N.J., and Mark Kirk, R-Ill., has no force of law. And its symbolic impact on U.S. posture toward Libya is uncertain. But the resolution puts the full Senate on record behind an aggressive posture and could bolster a growing number of calls for the United States—which has already sent warships carrying hundreds of Marines into the region—or its allies to take limited military steps in support of Libyans seeking to overthrow Qaddafi. Earlier on Tuesday, Secretary of State Hillary Clinton told lawmakers that all options to address the Libyan crisis are on the table.
"There is a bipartisan consensus building to provide assistance to liberated areas of Libya and to work with our allies to enforce a no-fly zone," Kirk said in a statement.
The resolution condemns "gross and systematic violations of human rights, including violent attacks on protesters demanding democratic reforms," by Qaddafi and urges him to "ensure civilian safety" and "guarantee access to human rights and humanitarian organizations." It also applauds a move by the U.N. Human Rights Council to recommend Libya's suspension from the council and calls for the U.N. General Assembly to vote in support of that step.
Menendez has been a staunch critic of Libya's role in the 1988 bombing of Pam Am Flight 103 over Lockerbie, Scotland, and Scotland's 2009 release of a Libyan convicted of playing a role in the bombing. Both the resolution and a Menendez statement issued on Tuesday reference Libya's acceptance of responsibility for the Pam Am bombing, which killed 270 people, including 189 U.S. citizens.

INDIANAPOLIS — Indiana Gov. Mitch Daniels' official state portrait will soon be hanging at the Statehouse.
Daniels' official portrait is to be unveiled Tuesday during a public ceremony at the Indiana Statehouse. It was painted by Lafayette native Richard Halstead, whose artwork hangs in the Smithsonian Institution and other galleries. Halstead was one of 43 artists who applied to paint the governor's portrait.
Historically, the portrait of the immediate past governor is displayed in the lobby of the governor's office. Daniels' second term as governor ends in January, when he'll become Purdue University's new president.
The Indiana State Museum manages the portrait process and the collection of governors' portraits.
