The First Pot Of Tea Ever Brewed
The story of the origin of tea is, like many origins, lost to history. Possibly, ancient man, looking for sources of food, chewed on a leaf and noticed the energizing effects of the caffeine. However, colorful legends abound:

All-leather horizontal belt holster, by Col. Littleton
The Colonel designs his quality leather goods with YOU in mind, the way you want to use them. The No. 46 Holster is for those of us who prefer to carry our phones horizontally on our belts.
The No. 48 is part of a new generation of holsters for electronic devices from the Colonel. "The first computer I ever saw filled a ballroom-sized room but probably had less power than today's hand-held games. Today, you can stash away an amazingly powerful computer in your attaché or brief bag. It seems that the natural progression of electronic devices is from large and bulky to small, thin and sleek." Which perfectly describes the No. 48 Holster.
This holster is not just for phones. The Colonel has designed it to accommodate phones, cameras, MP3 players and other devices, with room to throw in some cash and cards. It even has a handy D-ring at the top left for attaching your keyring, or for attaching the holster to a handbag.
Hand-set rivets and ball stud closure are in polished nickel silver, with a close-fitting over-the-top cover flap. The belt loop on the back fits up to 1 1/2" belts. The Colonel's thought of everything, with an opening for your ear buds, and vents so you can hear your phone speakers.
Like all of the Colonel's products, the No. 48 Holster is handmade in the Col. Littleton Workshop located in Lynnville, Tennessee, using soft, dry-milled American Steer Hide, edge-stitched for extra reinforcement.
Compatible with iPhone and other mobile phones and devices up to 2.56" tall x 4.5" wide x 0.75" deep (6.5 x 11.4 x 1.9 cm)
- Horizontal belt- and bag- holster for cash, cards, and phones and other mobile devices
- D-ring for keys or for attaching to your bag; vents for earbuds and phone speakers
- Constructed of dry-milled brown American steer hide, edge-stitched for extra reinforcement, nickel-silver ball stud closure and rivets
- Inside dimensions: 2.56" tall x 4.5" wide x 0.75" deep (6.5 x 11.4 x 1.9 cm)
- Handmade in the Col. Littleton Workshop in Lynnville, Tennessee (population 327)
- Warranted by Colonel Littleton

Stephen Joseph Manning, 52, a special education teacher at Northern High School and softball coach, died unexpectedly Sept. 19 at Georgetown University Hospital in Washington, D.C., and this week, the community reflected on his legacy at the school.
"Mr. Manning served Northern High School for over a decade as a teacher and he served Northern High School as a coach," Kevin Howard, principal of Northern High School, said. "Our thoughts and prayers are with him and his family and with the Northern High School community."
Out of respect for Manning's family, Howard did not offer any further comments.
"We are focusing on our students and staff during this difficult time," Howard said.
For many of Manning's coworkers, friends and students, he was described as "no truer friend," according to his obituary.
Sarah Ann James, a former student of Manning's, played softball for Northern during her freshman and sophomore years. Known affectionately as "Coach," Manning helped James grow as a person and as a player, she said.
"[Manning] was the type of coach who made sure every person played every single game and never had favorites," James said. "[He] was an amazing person and touched every person he encountered. … I will miss him dearly, but will remember the lessons he taught me and the memories I made those two years that I will never forget."
"Steve Manning was the man who was full of life, ready to teach and had a love for all," said Katina Jones, who worked with Manning as an instructional assistant at Northern High School.
Now at Calvert Country School, Jones, whom Manning called "Jonesy," said she was "blessed" to have been part of Manning's "circle" for the past four years.
"He was a big guy with a huge heart for not just his family and friends, but for his students and his ability to teach students that others would have given up on," Jones wrote in an email. "For his students, he would go to no end to help them to understand his concepts of math, study for tests and have great incentives of extra study/learning time during his own lunch period. For me, he was always that guy that could put a smile on your face even if he was having a not so good day."
In the email, Jones told a story of a group of Manning's students who did not do well on a particular test. Manning decided to treat the students to ice cream while they studied. On the next test, all students passed.
"As I visited him in the hospital a few days after his stroke, I was relaying some of the updates in the school," Jones said in the email. "As I talked and rubbed his arm, his head moved ever so slightly. The nurses said it was just a reflex, I believe he was letting me know it was OK."
Jones and a group of staff from Northern High will host a memorial titled "A Celebration of Life," open to all who wish to honor Manning, on Oct. 5 at Carpenter's Beach in Huntingtown.
"We are planning to gather, share stories/memories of Steve, and release flowers into the bay in honor of his memory," Jones wrote.
A light breakfast of bagels, doughnuts and juice — Manning's favorites — will be served, she said.
To RSVP or contribute to the memorial, contact Jones at firstname.lastname@example.com.

FrizzBeeCafe INVITATIONAL
Senoia, GA
Sunday March 21st
PDGA XC Tier
Southern Nationals Qualifier
1st of all let me apologize to the Amateurs, this is a PRO ONLY event.
2nd, let me apologize to players because this is an INVITATIONAL event and not everyone can play
So here is the scoop
I can only allow 24 players in to this event, mainly because we are using my private home course on a very tiny piece of land for a 18 hole course. The course has crossing fairways and a full field will not work. I had anticipated the new course in Merriwether County to be installed by now and we were going to have the event there, but as County politics go, nothing is happening fast enough to install a course for a full field event, so I am going with plan B. I want to represent the Southern Nationals with the best players in GA so top players are invited, or have a leg up on getting the invitation.
The course isn't a World Championship Style course by any means, matter of fact it's skilled Pitch~N~Putt. 15 of the holes are from 125ft to 250ft. We will be playing 18 different holes using only 8 baskets, so it's gonna be kind of congested. There are house ground rules that may differ from what you are accustomed to. (No relief from Fences, unless you go OB. Missed Mando's are drop zones without penalties, Hitting the house, which shouldn't happen, is 2 stroke penalty)
How to get into this event?
The #1 way to get into this event is that you are planning on heading to Memphis for the Southern Nationals Finals Labor Day Weekend Sept 4th/5th.
After that you will need to apply for your spot into this event or sponsor the event. There are only about 12 spots available because there are qualifications that 11 others have already met that have a spot reserved for them until March 1st
Dollar (09 SN Competitor) CONFIRMED
Matlack (09 SN Competitor) CONFIRMED
Vach (09 SN Competitor)
Josh Childs (09 SN Competitor) CONFIRMED
Phil Arthur (World Champ)
Brad Hammock (World Champ)
Keith Johnson (A-Tier TD) CONFIRMED
Rand (A- Tier TD)
Jason Allind ( A- Tier TD)
John Ritger (A+ TD)
Josh Henly (A+ Course Engineer) CONFIRMED
Brett Rousseau (08 SN Competitor)
To confirm your spot or If you want to apply for your spot into the event send me an email to firstname.lastname@example.com, I will also be at White Oak Saturday that you can plead your case for entry. I will be answering your questions here if you have any.

Brands Hatch is one of the most recognisable driving circuits in UK motor racing. It began life as a farm which became a popular location for cyclists in the mid 1920s. Later motorcyclists joined in, attracted by the farm's natural bowl shape. In 1932 a number of small clubs joined together and had their first meeting in March. The early Brands Hatch track had a 'kidney bean' shape with one very long straight.
From these humble beginnings Brands Hatch expanded, adding a grandstand, making the circuit considerably longer and widening the existing track. The extra circuit gave Brands Hatch the length required to host a Grand Prix, and in 1964 it hosted the Formula 1 European Grand Prix. To date the last Formula 1 Grand Prix at Brands Hatch was in 1986, but the track continues to host major motorsport competitions such as the British Touring Car Championship and British Superbike Championship. The track continues to be one of the best driving experiences in the UK.
There has obviously been a long tradition of single seater racing at Brands Hatch; the last winner was Nigel Mansell! If you think you could compete against the lap times of racing greats like that then try our single seater driving experiences at Brands Hatch.
If you don't think that those small circuit cars are for you, we also have Brands Hatch rally experiences for those who fancy a slightly more comfortable (and warmer!) ride. Whatever way to drive it, you'll have a great time on the Brands Hatch circuit.
32 Products found in Brands Hatch
The world famous Brands Hatch racing circuit is located just outside London. You can find it off the A20 close to the town of West Kingsdown and 3 miles from JUNCTION 3 (Swanley) from the M25.
Brands Hatch Circuit,
If you're planning on trusting to Sat Nav to get to Brands Hatch, the postcode you'll need is DA3 8NG.

The National Theatre's award-winning comedy One Man, Two Guvnors has now been seen by over 1 million people worldwide. Now booking to March 2014, this internationally acclaimed smash-hit is a glorious celebration of British comedy - a unique, laugh-out-loud mix of satire, songs, slapstick and glittering one-liners. Owain Arthur returns to the role as Francis Henshall, following a sell-out international tour. Fired from his skiffle band, Francis Henshall becomes minder to Roscoe Crabbe. But Roscoe is really Rachel, posing as her own dead brother - who's been killed by her boyfriend Stanley Stubbers. Francis spots the chance of an extra meal ticket and takes a job with one Stanley Stubbers - but to prevent discovery, he must keep his two guvnors apart. Simple. Directed by Nick Hytner and Written by Richard Bean, based on The Servant of Two Masters by Carlo Goldoni, with songs by Grant Olding.
Sorry there are no shows for One Man Two Guvnors right now.

http://lionsofliberty.com/2012/10/18...ntial-debates/While nodding in and out of the 2nd Presidential Debate last night in order to bring our fans their much-expected tweets, it occurred to me that, in addition to the secret debate agreement made regarding how the debate would be conducted, there must be some sort of even more secret list of banned phrases. As far as I can tell, not only were some of the most important topics relating to the office of the Presidency completely ignored, but there were some key phrases that werent even allowed to be uttered.
A brief scan through the full transcript shows that I was dead on. Without further ado, the 7 phrases you havent and wont hear in the U.S. Presidential Debates:
When the President of The United States is sworn into office, he puts his hand on The Constitution and swears an oath to the best of his ability to preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States. Its literally right there in his job description. So shouldnt it maybe get at least a superficial mention? This would be like the Boston Red Sox interviewing for a new manager and never mentioning baseball. Though that may actually be how their interview with Bobby Valentine went last year.
Speaking of the Constitution, weve discussed the implications of the indefinite detention provisions of the 2012 National Defense Authorization Act , or commonly referred to as NDAA, over and over and over again on this here site. Maybe were just nitpicky, but any law that allows the government to detain anyone without due process, without trial, without a lawyer and without charge just gives us the willies. Not to mention that it blatantly violates the 5th Amendment of the that pesky old U.S. Constitution.
Maybe theres not a whole lot of debate to be had on the subject. After all, Obama signed the bill into law after requesting the indefinite detention provisions himself . Meanwhile, Mitt Romney has openly admitted that he too would sign the bill into law. Both Green Party Candidate Jill Stein and Libertarian Candidate Gary Johnson oppose the NDAA but of course they arent allowed in these debates.

Located in the heart of Chamonix, this newly renovated hotel has plenty of history behind it. The hotel is named after a British lady, Isabella Straton, who broke boundaries exploring the Alps in the Victorian era with her husband who was a local guide. Her grandchildren opened this hotel and its name still survives. The hotel displays wallpaper and carpet designed in Isabella's honour, with a modern, contemporary style. The fantastic location in the centre of Chamonix will appeal to both keen skiers and those interested in the culture and activities of Chamonix. The trendy bar/bistro where dinner is taken offers traditional fare with a modern twist and some British and Scandinavian favourites! The sunny terrace adjoining the bar is one of Chamonix's favourite spots for enjoying the mountain scenery and soaking up the resort atmosphere.

Glad I could post something useful for once :lmao:
It is the best weather app paid or free IMO.
When in doubt, pull the battery out!
Well pulled the trigger as a storm is approaching now I do not need to look outside to confirm it!
I do have one piece of advice to those buying this app for the first time. If you start getting random tones and LED's be sure to check the advisory alert on Berryweather. The first time I thought my phone was possessed :lmao:
What settings are people using, I dont think I need all these screens and I set it to update once every 1/2 hour and advisory updates every 3 hours. I just dont need any more battery issues. Any other settings that are recommended?
Before you purchase you might want to try this discount code for another 20% off which brings it down to $4.00 if it works

My homescreen icon and Temp are not updating even though I have the update interval set at 30 minutes any suggestions?
Okay. I was running BB Weather on my Storm. The past few days it has been running a little slow. So I figured I would look into Berry Weather. I was not sure about spending $5.00 on a weather application. So I went to the Bellshare website and downloaded the 3 days trial. Fast forward, I just purchased this app. This weather app is REBONKULOUS. It is well worth the cost. If flick scrolling is any where as good as this weather app, Bellshare is the SHIZNITS.

2012 Year in Review: The 10 Best Movies
Director Rian Johnson is a man without a genre. Having crafted his first film Brick as a sharply written, modern-day homage to film-noir, he surprised many by returning with The Brothers Bloom, a light-as-air tribute to the grift film filled with more whimsy than Wes Anderson on ecstasy. Consequently, nobody could have anticipated Looper, as clever a spin on the time-travel thriller as the original Terminator.
In many ways, Looper proved to be Johnson's "coming out" party as a director in the league of Christopher Nolan -- whip-smart, daring and intensely visual. The story of a young man attempting to hunt down his future self is filled with clever twists, stirring motivations and jaw-dropping time-travel sequences that we honestly hadn't seen in a film like this before. Maybe-Batman Joseph Gordon-Levitt and future G.I. Joe Bruce Willis team up for one hell of a smart, effective thrill-ride.

Interpretive Handbook
60352 :
Opioid Receptor, Mu 1 (OPRM1) Genotype for Naltrexone Efficacy, Saliva
Clinical Information Discusses physiology, pathophysiology, and general clinical aspects, as they relate to a laboratory test
The mu-opioid receptor (OPRM1) is the primary binding site of action for many opioid drugs and for binding of beta-endorphins. One of the effects of opiate and alcohol use is to increase release of beta-endorphins, which subsequently increases release of dopamine and stimulates cravings. Naltrexone is an opioid antagonist used to treat abuse of opiates, alcohol, and other substances. Naltrexone binds to OPRM1, preventing beta-endorphin binding and subsequently reducing the craving for substances of abuse.(1)
The A355G polymorphism (rs1799971) in exon 1 of the OPRM1 gene (OPRM1) results in an amino acid change, Asn102Asp. Historically, this mutation has been referred to in the literature as 118A->G (Asn40Asp).(2) The G allele leads to loss of the putative N-glycosylation site in the extracellular receptor region, causing a decrease in OPRM1 mRNA and protein levels, but a 3-fold increase in beta-endorphin binding at the receptor.(3) Studies have shown individuals who carry at least 1 G allele have significantly better outcomes with naltrexone therapy including lower rate of relapse (P=0.044), a longer time to return to heavy drinking, and <20% relapse rate after 12 weeks of treatment compared with individuals who are homozygous for the A allele (55% relapse rate).(4) Other studies indicated that 87.1% of G allele carriers had a good clinical outcome, compared with only 54.8% of individuals with the A/A genotype (odds ratio, 5.75; confidence interval, 1.88-17.54).(1) A haplotype-based approach confirmed that the single OPRM1 355A->G locus was predictive of response to naltrexone treatment.(1)
Frequency of the 355G allele varies with ethnicity but ranges between 10% and 40% (European 20%, Asian 40%, African American 10%, and Hispanic 25%).
Useful For Suggests clinical disorders or settings where the test may be helpful
Identifying individuals with a higher probability of successful treatment for alcoholism with naltrexone
Interpretation Provides information to assist in interpretation of the test results
An interpretative report will be provided.
Cautions Discusses conditions that may cause diagnostic confusion, including improper specimen collection and handling, inappropriate test selection, and interfering substances
Note that in patients who have received heterologous blood transfusions before a saliva sample was acquired, the saliva samples may contain donor DNA. Return to recipient genotype usually occurs after 6 weeks. Similarly, saliva samples obtained from patients after allogeneic blood or marrow transplantation can contain donor DNA. In both cases, this may result in genotyping results that reflect the genotype of the recipient, the donor, or a blend of the donor and recipient. Results obtained under these circumstances may not accurately reflect the recipient's genotype.
Rare polymorphisms exist that could lead to false-negative or false-positive results. If results obtained do not match the clinical findings, additional testing could be considered.
Reference Values Describes reference intervals and additional information for interpretation of test results. May include intervals based on age and sex when appropriate. Intervals are Mayo-derived, unless otherwise designated. If an interpretive report is provided, the reference value field will state this.

An angry Adele gave the middle finger at the Brit Awards for music Tuesday night in London, two weeks after rapper M.I.A. gave the same obscene gesture at the Super Bowl halftime show.
It happened as Adele, 23, was picking up the best album award to go with her solo female honor and was giving her acceptance speech.
"I am so proud to be British and to be flying the flag," she was saying when host James Corden interrupted her to introduce the '90s British pop band Blur.
The crowd booed and Adele digitally expressed herself. The multiple-Grammy winner explained that she wasn't directing her scorn at the audience.
"I flung the middle finger. That was for the suits at the Brit Awards, not my fans," she said, according to the BBC. "I'm sorry if I offended anyone but the suits offended me."
Apology IssuedOn Wednesday, in a written statement, a spokesman for the Brits said: "We regret this happened and we send our deepest apologies to Adele that her big moment was cut short this evening due to the live show over-running. We don't want this to undermine her incredible achievement in winning our night's biggest award. It tops off what's been an incredible year for her."
A rep for ITV, which aired the event live on British TV, added: "The Brits is a live event. Unfortunately, the program was over-running and we had to move on. We would like to apologize to Adele for the interruption."
The moment put a damper on an otherwise shining night for Adele, who kissed and cuddled with boyfriend Simon Konecki throughout the ceremony.
She also showed no signs of her recent voice problems as she brought the crowd to its feet with "Rolling in the Deep."

If I light up a large area of the Nether (so that the light level is >7), and give it sufficiently low ceilings to prevent Ghasts spawning, can zombie pigmen spawn?

Found this on the MinecraftWiki entry for Zombie Pigmen:
Minecraft Wiki says "Even with no light sources around, the player can see in the Nether, due to apparent "background light". However, this doesn't count as light for other game purposes—lighting up areas is still useful to prevent mob spawning."
I have lit up some parts of a Nether Fortress and not had anything spawn there yet, but I haven't tested for long enough to have any certainty.

2 (9 inch)
deep dish frozen pie crusts, thawed
1 (15 ounce) can
mixed vegetables, drained
2 cups
cooked, diced chicken breast
1 (10.75 ounce) can
condensed cream of chicken soup
1/2 cup
I love this recipe! I used a bag frozen mixed veggies instead of canned and added some Mrs. Dash Original Blend for seasoning. It makes enough for two casseroles. I usually cook the crust for awhile before adding the filling so the bottom doesn't get all gooey. This is a great recipe to help you eat your veggies!
was not very good tasted sweet and kind of bland
350 Ratings
Comfort food at it's best! This dish is very hearty, easy to make, and keeps well in the fridge.
I started with the refridgerated pie crusts, not the frozen, and cooked the bottom crust in my pie plate for about 10 minutes on 350 degrees. This ensures no sog in the final product. While this is baking I mixed all other ingredients together making the following substitutions:
(1) Use frozen mixed vegetables or peas/carrots mixture in lieu of the canned (fresher flavor). Microwave them for half the time the instructions on the bag indicate to prepare them.
(2) Omit the milk and use 1 can of your favorite cream soup (I use chicken) and another can of the 98% fat free cream soup to cut calories (broccoli and mushroom work very well).
(3) Add additional spices to liven up the flavor: rosemary, poultry seasoning, salt & pepper, and a few dashes of hot sauce. (The hot sauce will not overpower or overheat the dish!)
I followed the instructions on placing the top crust and baking as indicated in the original recipe and got an amazing result. I've already made this twice and intend to keep making it for quick dinners and lunchtime on the go.
After reading reviews I revised the recipe a little and it turned out wonderful. My family loved it and we will definately make it again. Add frozen green beans, carrots, peas, diced new potatoes to the chicken. Salt, pepper, onion powder, garlic, and thyme to taste. Add a small splash of tobasco (you can not taste the tobasco but it adds to the entire flavor). Also use 1 can of cream of chicken and 1 can of cream of celery in addition to the milk to make the mixture nice and creamy. Bake for 1 hour to give the pie pastry a nice crispness.
This was one of the best chicken pot pies I've ever had! As suggested by others, I: 1)used refrigerated pie crusts 2)cooked the bottom crust in pie plate for 10 mins at 350 degrees - *using a fork, poke several holes throughout so it doesn't puff up while baking 3)used frozen bag of mixed veggies - *I heated it up on the stove top before mixing it in with the other ingredients 4)used a can of cream of potato soup in place of the milk 5) brushed top crust with a beaten egg to give it a golden brown color 6)add'l seasonings added - garlic powder, salt and pepper 7)I used 2 chix breasts and poached it - cooked the chix in a pot of boiling chix broth for about 25 mins. My family really enjoyed it, but the only thing we noticed was it was a bit on the dry side. I think next time I'll also include the 1/2 cup of milk. Good and easy recipe - thanks Tressie!! I will sure make this again soon!
This is wonderful!I bought and used a whole cooked chicken for 2 pies, storebought deep dish pie crusts and frozen peas and carrots which I cooked in the microwave. I took the advice of others and cooked the bottom shell for about 10-12 minutes @350 before filling. I used half the amount of milk recommended in the recipe, as I found without any it seemed dry. Also I added 1/2 teaspoon each of pepper, thyme and tarragon, and 1/4 teaspoon of garlic powder to the entire mixture for the 2 pies. I brushed the top crusts with a beaten egg, poked holes in the tops then cooked them @400 for 30 minutes in pyrex pie plates I had lightly sprayed with oil. When they came out of the oven, they looked like they were from the pages of a magazine and my family just loved them. I will look no further for a pot pie recipe.
I gave it four stars instead of five because of the changes needed as suggested, but it is YUMMY! I'm making this for Christmas dinner because it is so easy and can be made ahead. I made the following changes as suggested by some:
1. used refridgerated pie crust and baked bottom crust for 10 minutes, brushed with beaten egg
2. used one pound bag of frozen stew veggies that had potatoes and brocolli
3. added 1 tsp. thyme, 1/2 tsp. tarragon, 1 tsp. pepper
This recipe is a real winner! So easy to prepare. I also baked mine a little longer to get a nicely golden brown crust (about 15-20 minutes extra baking time). Next time I will try adding some potato to the filling. I was actually just making this for myself because my husband has always said that he doesn't like pot pie... he loved this one and had seconds. I'll remember this recipe for Thanksgiving Turkey leftovers too.

Talk about trash to treasure! Where the rest of us saw a candy wrapper, Ecoist founders Helen and Jonathan Marcoschamer saw a material that could be re-used to create unique handbags. And they didn't just stop at candy wrappers, they also use food packaging, soda labels, subway maps, and newspapers to weave together their stylish, study handbags. Unsurprisingly, the broad range of materials have yielded diverse aesthetics: from the bright and colorful to repeating motifs. The company offers a variety of sizes and shapes, so the eco savvy can show their style with something as small as a coin purse or as large as a tote. Now a selection of Ecoist's handbags, including their popular Every/Any (three shown above left), are available through the Inhabitat Shop.
+ Coin Purse – $28 (top)
+ Barcode Bag – $28 (bottom)
Ecoist was founded in 2004 and created with the idea to "merge design with social and environmental consciousness to provide stylish, functional, and durable products." The founders recognized the need to create a product that was more than green, but also had a visual appeal that would make people want to have it and then go out and buy it. And true to their mission, all their products are made through partnerships with fair-trade manufacturers and suppliers, and using materials that are eco-friendly in nature, whether organic or recycled.

I would like to know how to do the crafts with the aluminum paper trash. Do you have an explantation of how to make the woven products with the paper aluminum? Would you be willing to share that so that people in Haiti might learn it as well?
February 12, 2009 at 6:35 pm
As in the yuliomac ´s comment this bags have been in Mexico for a long time, and they are kind of cheap. I wondering´if this ones, that cost much more, are made by the same hands and if this called "eco bags" are also " fair trade" too?
Nice to put your name in something that was allredy in the market as "yor design" only because they have leather straps, nice try of creativity.

It's beautiful. I remember that I ussually made bandage, bracelet and belt with my friends using candy's plastic when I was kid. But I see that some of those items were made from paper. I wondering if they are water resist. Did the material get some treatment first?Can I have some tutorial for tha handbag making because I'm so exited for those things. thanks

Perhaps no flip flop in his career has caused Mitt Romney more grief among conservatives than his evolution on abortion, from a pro-choice gubernatorial candidate to a pro-life presidential contender. His struggle to convince activists of his conservative bona fides underscores the fact that toeing the pro-life line is a requirement for a Republican presidential candidate. It is a litmus test in the most political sense of the phrase.
After decades of avoiding what was once a toxic issue, Democrats are on the verge of establishing a new litmus test, one that will demonstrate just how quickly and dramatically the political landscape will change: When a new crop of Democrats run for the White House in 2016, the top contenders will likely all embrace same-sex marriage the way Republicans embrace a pro-life stand.
Just as there is little room for a pro-choice Republican in national politics, it's becoming increasingly likely that President Obama will be the last Democrat to win his party's presidential nomination without supporting same-sex marriage.
Several of the Democrats who might run in 2016 are already to the left of him on gay marriage. New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo helped shepherd a bill through the Republican-controlled state Senate in his first year on the job. Maryland Gov. Martin O'Malley led the push to pass similar legislation; he'll sign the bill next week.
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi has been one of the most aggressive in pushing her party to embrace gay marriage. "It's all about time," she told The Advocate in a February cover story. "And to those who mock me on this subject, I say to them, 'The inconceivable to you is the inevitable to us.'"
Contemplate just how quickly times have changed. In 2004, Republicans helped put gay marriage bans on the ballot in eleven states (the measures passed in all of them, including liberal Oregon). Sen. John Kerry, the party's presidential nominee, said he opposed gay marriage in 2004, though he favored civil unions. That was the same stand both Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton took in 2008; today, Obama says his thoughts on same-sex unions are evolving, but he is still on record backing civil unions over marriage.
Gay marriage advocates have faced political rejection for years. Now, their success rate is picking up. Early victories came in the courts; both in Massachusetts (in 2003) and in Iowa (in 2009), courts said denying marriage to same-sex couples was discriminatory. The U.S. Supreme Court is likely to take up a case that challenges the constitutionality of California's Proposition 8, which banned gay marriage.
More recently, state legislatures have begun allowing gay marriage; earlier this month, Washington Gov. Christine Gregoire signed a bill legalizing same-sex unions, making it the fifth state to have passed a marriage bill into law and the seventh to allow gay marriage overall (Maryland is the eighth).
In recent years, opinion polls have shown the general public is more accepting of gay marriage than politicians -- even Democrats -- have been. A Pew Research Center poll conducted in October showed the nation closely divided on the question: 46 percent said they favor allowing gays and lesbians to marry, while 44 percent are opposed. That's a dramatic change from just a decade ago, when 57 percent stood opposed to allowing gays to wed.
And the number of Americans who favor gay marriage will increase over time. The Pew survey found younger Americans are significantly more likely to accept gay marriage; 59 percent of the Millenial generation and 50 percent of Generation X say they favor allowing gay marriage, while just 42 percent of Baby Boomers and 33 percent of the Silent Generation say they're okay with it. As younger Americans begin taking over a larger share of the population, their attitudes will carry greater heft.
Expect to see that greater acceptance reflected in the Democratic primary in 2016. According to a number of Democrats I spoke with in the last few days, it's almost certain candidates for president will openly embrace same-sex marriage.
"In the Democratic Party, it has become something of a core issue, and politicians are reacting to where a majority of people are," said Karen Finney, a Democratic strategist who likened same-sex marriage to anti-miscegenation laws that prevented marriage between two people of a different race.
Rick, Executive Director for Policy
Concise coverage of everything I wish I had hours to read about."
Chuck, Graduate Student
The day's action in one quick read."
Stacy, Director of Communications
I find them informative and appreciate the daily news updates and enjoy the humor as well."
Richard, VP of Government Affairs
Chock full of usable information on today's issues. "
Michael, Executive Director
Finney, who is herself biracial, sees a parallel: "I see this as no different from anti-miscegenation laws which prevented my parents from legally being married in their home states. The wording of the arguments against the legality of a marriage between a black person and a white person is almost identical."
What's more, from a strictly pragmatic standpoint, being in favor of gay marriage pays: The gay community is growing as a fundraising force within the Democratic Party, rivaling environmentalists, lawyers and other financially flush elements of the Democratic coalition. President Obama has already attended at least two fundraisers specifically aimed at the gay community; any candidate who hopes to replace him will need access to those same wealthy donors.
Not every strategist agreed that gay marriage would serve as a litmus test among Democrats in four years. After all, Obama is still evolving (although many gay rights advocates believe he will come out in favor of same-sex marriage if he wins a second term). And some of the party's potential national contenders, like Clinton and Sen. Mark Warner, don't openly support gay marriage.
Meanwhile, there are indications that opposing same-sex marriage is as strict a litmus test for Republicans as supporting unions is for Democrats. This week, the New Jersey legislature passed a bill to allow gays to wed; Gov. Chris Christie, who has never been much of a social conservative, has promised to veto the legislation, a move that will keep him sufficiently conservative if he decides to eventually seek national office.
But for an issue that some Democrats believe cost them the 2004 election, it's shocking just how much public attitudes surrounding gay marriage have changed; eight years after Kerry lost, most up-and-coming leaders within the Democratic Party have fully embraced same-sex marriage. As one Democratic strategist put it, it's hard to think of another civil rights paradigm that has shifted so quickly, in any country, at any point in history.
The way likely presidential contenders Cuomo and O'Malley have embraced gay marriage is a telling indication of the issue's acceptance. What will say more about whether gay marriage is now a Democratic litmus test is how those who have been reluctant to support gay marriage, like Warner, handle their opposition -- or, like Obama, their own evolutions.

A few snippets from the Benghazi Hearing:
A few snippets from the Benghazi Hearing:
I can't stand that woman. The only thing she cares about is maintaining her political power and she would do anything, and I mean anything to make sure she keeps it. I'm aware this is not unique among politicians but to me she is more manipulative, uncaring, mirthless and conniving than most. Whenever she speaks I just assume its a lie
Speaking of lies
The attacks on our embassies & diplomats are a result of perceived American weakness. Mitt Romney is right to point that out.
@RumsfeldOffice via Twitter for iPhone
Donald Rumsfeld was Secretary of War Defense between 2001 and 2006, so none of this should be news to him:
June 14, 2002, U.S. consulate in Karachi, Pakistan
Suicide bomber kills 12 and injures 51.
February 20, 2003, international diplomatic compound in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia
Truck bomb kills 17.
February 28, 2003, U.S. consulate in Karachi, Pakistan
Gunmen on motorcycles killed two consulate guards.
July 30, 2004, U.S. embassy in Taskkent, Uzbekistan
Suicide bomber kills two.
December 6, 2004, U.S. consulate in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia
Militants stormed and occupied perimeter wall. Five killed, 10 wounded.
March 2, 2006, U.S. consulate in Karachi, Pakistan
Suicide car bomber killed four, including a U.S. diplomate directly targeted by the assailants.
September 12, 2006, U.S. embassy in Damascus, Syria
Gunmen attacked embassy with grenades, automatic weapons, and a car bomb (though second truck bomb failed to detonate). One killed and 13 wounded.
January 12, 2007, U.S. embassy in Athens, Greece
A rocket-propelled grenade was fired at the embassy building. No one was injured.
July 9, 2008, U.S. consulate in Istanbul, Turkey
Armed men attacked consulate with pistols and shotguns. Three policemen killed.
March 18, 2008, U.S. embassy in Sana'a, Yemen
Mortar attack misses embassy, hits nearby girls' school instead.
September 17, 2008, U.S. embassy in Sana'a, Yemen
Militants dressed as policemen attacked the embassy with RPGs, rifles, grenades and car bombs. Six Yemeni soldiers and seven civilians were killed. Sixteen more were injured.
So did those attacks (and the 9/11 ones, for that matter) happen because of "perceived American weakness"? Is that what Rumsfeld wants to arguethat our country's diplomatic missions were targeted because George Bush's America was perceived as weak?
As for Obama, the attacks in Cairo and Benghazi are the first two attacks on a U.S. diplomatic mission in an ostensibly peaceful country during his entire presidency The embassy in Afghanistan was targeted by the Taliban last Sept. 13, but that's a country at war.
If you buy Rumsfeld's nonsense, you can tally the numbers to determine which administration was "perceived weaker."
FOX and the croonies only get outraged when the other guys are in power.
No hearings AT ALL over all these many diplomatic deaths but the 4 in bengazi are grounds for treason ?????????
get real.
I'm glad this is finally coming out in the US. Multiple reports of lies surrounding this operation have been reported on news outlets in other countries for a long time now, but unfortunately most Americans won't believe it until CNN, Fox News or ABC tells them it's so.
I'm not even speaking about Benghazi. I'm speaking just in general regarding her.
I think there's a better chance that several Finheaven users simultaneously win the lottery than Obama leaving office. I don't see any honor in politicians on either side. If this comes to that point the methods used to retain power will know no bounds.Benghazi buzz: Obama predicted to leave office
To this day, it is not known what role President Richard Nixon played in the break-in at the Watergate Hotel, but the tape recordings from the White House confirm he and Chief of Staff H.R. Haldeman discussed using the CIA to slow down the FBI investigation.
It was the cover-up, as history records, that eventually brought about Nixons resignation in disgrace.
Now, Congress is investigating an alleged cover-up of the terrorist attack Sept. 11, 2012, on the U.S. foreign service facility in Benghazi, Libya, amid predictions from prominent voices that the scandal will bring down the Obama administration.
Former Arkansas governor and onetime presidential candidate Mike Huckabee made the bold prediction this week, ahead of a House hearing Wednesday that will feature witnesses of the attack.
I believe that before its all over, this president will not fill out his full term, he said. I know that puts me on a limb. But this is not minor. It wasnt minor when Richard Nixon lied to the American people and worked with those in his administration to cover up what really happened in Watergate.
But, I remind you as bad as Watergate was, because it broke the trust between the president and the people, no one died. This is more serious because four Americans did in fact die.
Meanwhile, John Bolton, former U.N. ambassador and now a senior fellow at the American Enterprise Institute, has also declared the Benghazi scandal could lead to Obamas removal from office.
This could be the hinge point, he told Newsmax. Its that serious for them.
Frank Gaffney, the president of the Center for Security Policy, wrote in a Washington Times column that the dam seems to be breaking on the nearly eight-month-long cover-up concerning the deadly jihadist attack on Americans and their facilities in Benghazi, Libya.
After the foreign service facility in Benghazi was attacked, the Obama administration initially claimed Muslims spontaneously rioted over a little-known online video that defamed Islams founder.
But now there is evidence that the administration knew from the beginning that it was a terrorist attack and altered its talking points.
The House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform is digging into the truth, holding a hearing that calls on those who were in Benghazi to explain what happened.
The questions will probe who created the story that was delivered to America and why
As "An idiot speaks" demonstrated above, about 50% of us cannot look at the present without justifying it based on the past. We're so busy fighting each other and trying to convince each other that the present guy is or isn't as bad as the last guy that we fail to unify our voices to stop all the BS regardless of party. We seem content on "our guy" getting even for the perceived sins of "their" guy.
Im somewhat disappointed that more African Americans dont think for themselves and just go with whatever theyre supposed to say and think."
- Dr. Benjamin Carson
The sad part is that Obama was hugging the mother of one of the guards that was killed and telling her face to face that the attack was caused by a video. Now we know that Obama knew the video wasn't the cause of the attack. What a despicable piece of **** he is.

Posted in Dr. Ying Competition
Kristen Clayton is a 15-year-old budding scientist at Viera High School in Brevard County. Her inspiration for research comes from her daily drive to school, where she sees first-hand the adverse effects of algae spilling out the parameters of the narrow canals that surround her. These images drove her to create an environmentally friendly solution to excessive algae growth. She discovered the usage of Lemna minor, a rapidly growing aquatic plant, in the removal of nitrogen and phosphate from the water to be used as ethanol fuel.
Her research project determines the ideal amount of nutrients needed for Lemna minor to both relieve the waterways as well as produce an efficient future fuel source. In the future, she hopes to further the study by testing Lemna minor's ability to transfer its stored energy to an ethanol/gasoline run device. When she's not in her lab coat Kristen finds joy in ballet dancing, reading, sketching, painting, volunteering and exploring the wonders of nature.
This weekend, Kristen and four other finalists from area high schools will compete for the coveted "Ying Prize" during the Dr. Nelson Ying Science Competition at the Orlando Science Center. The Grand Prize winner receives a $5000 scholarship and an award of $1000 for the student's science teacher or mentor and another $1,000 for the winner's school. To compete in the Ying competition, each entrant must perform a research project that has the ultimate goal of benefiting humanity.
On Friday, April 29, Kristen and her fellow finalists will tour the Minute Maid Laboratories in Apopka and then see the UCF Nanotechnology Department. On Saturday, April 30, they will defend their research before the judges' panel at the Orlando Science Center and then get a behind-the-scenes tour of the facility. On Sunday, May 1, the event will culminate in an announcement of the Grand Prize winners on Sunday at an awards luncheon at Fulton's Crab House at Downtown Disney.

Donor sought
Tilton police officer in desperate need of kidney
TILTON - Police say they are "desperately" asking for the public's help in saving the life of one of their own.
Tilton Police Cpl. Nate Morrison found out recently that he was born with one kidney instead of two, and that his one kidney is failing, said Police Chief Robert Cormier.
"The doctors said he needs a kidney transplant quick," Cormier said.
Morrison, a Laconia High graduate who has been with the department for 14 years, first discovered the problem during a physical last summer, but only learned of the urgency of the problem in recent weeks, he said.
Doctors told Morrison his condition was so bad that he can't wait with others on a kidney transplant list, advising him he needs a direct donor - someone willing to donate a kidney to him within the coming days and weeks.
Morrison's fellow officers and staff members have begun a "Help for Nate" campaign to make it easy for people who want to donate a kidney or money to help Morrison. They have set up a web page, www.helpfornate.org with more information about donating, said Det. Matt Dawson.
Kidney donors for Morrison have to be type O blood, must be between the ages of 21 and 60, and have no significant health issues. Potential donors will be questioned carefully to assure a good fit, starting with a pre-screening phone interview and then a blood test, Cormier said.
The police also want to raise money, Dawson said, as both Morrison and his donor will not be able to work for several weeks after the process.
"Basically, we need to raise enough for pay checks for both people during and after surgery," Dawson said.
Donations can be made in Morrison's name to Northway Bank, 5 Market St., Tilton. Word has already spread fast in town about Morrison's case.
The webpage set up for him crashed a few times as soon as it went online Friday. And family and friends of law enforcement in the area have already stepped forward.
"We've already had 36 people who want to donate a kidney for Nate this morning," he said. "But we need more, we don't know yet whether we have a match for him."
Meanwhile, the town's senior center has announced with will be holding a breakfast to benefit him at the Applebee's in Tilton from 8 to 10 a.m. on April 6.
There was no question Morrison's fellow officers and department staff would come to his aid, Dawson said.
"It's a time of need, this is where the (police) 'brotherhood' concept all starts," he said.
"Nate is a member of our family and a great police officer who has dedicated his life to protecting others," Cormier said. "Now we are desperately asking the publics help to help us find a donor for him."

What is the purpose of small amounts of bitters in cocktails? For example, 1/32nd tsp angostura bitters in a Manhattan? Do they provide any function other than flavor, such as binding, texture, or mysterious chemical reaction?
Take the 2-minute tour ×
Seasoned Advice is a question and answer site for professional and amateur chefs. It's 100% free, no registration required.
Bitters originally were supposed to have medicinal properties, which is why some still have "tonic" in their names. Now they're just a flavoring agent, a concentrated way to enrich the cocktail and bring out more subtle flavor notes.
Given how little bitters you put in most drinks, it's unlikely they alter mouthfeel or other qualities much.

WOONSOCKET — When firefighters have to take on the challenge of putting out two major tenement fires in less than 12 hours, it pays to be well-trained and have experienced leadership.
That is the view Fire Chief Gary Lataille offered late Thursday while watching his department's firefighters, lieutenants, captains and deputy chiefs mop up a fire that could have been tragic without those factors and the precautions of proper fire alarm equipment and mutual aid coordination.
After responding to a fire that displaced 13 residents of a six-family dwelling at 183 Lincoln St. Thursday afternoon, the same shift was called back that night to battle a fire that broke out in a first-floor apartment in a six-unit tenement at 272 Front St., which threatened two connected six-unit wings.
The large, wood-frame building had active wired smoke detectors and residents were self-evacuating from the structure's three entry ways when firefighters arrived on scene just before 10 p.m.
After rushing out into the street with her son, Roland, and her husband and neighbors, Barbara Parenteau said she felt the evacuation had gone pretty well, given the potential risks.
"The most important thing is that everybody got out of the house safe and sound," she said. "That is the most important thing. Nobody was hurt and nobody died."
Parenteau sipped a cup of hot chocolate she and her neighbors had been given while they waited for news on whether they would be able to return to their unaffected apartments and said she considered herself fortunate to not have lost her belongings in the fire.
"I would say all and all it was very good," Parenteau said of the effort local firefighters made to control the fire. "They were here right away."
As she exited her portion of the extended building, Parenteau said, she could see a small amount of flames coming from the affected apartment and watched it suddenly burst out as a gout of flame rushing up the exterior wall of the building to the second and third floors.
"It was frightening and I am glad everyone got out," she said.
Dennis Dutra said he and his wife were going to sleep when they heard the building's smoke alarms going off.
"We heard the alarm but we only thought it was a false alarm because every time it goes off, it is a false alarm," Dutra said. This time, that wasn't the case and city firefighters were soon at the apartment door telling the family to get out, he said.
"We smelled the smoke and they came banging on the door and we came outside," he said. Dutra said his wife, Ann, has difficulty walking and firefighters helped her down the stairs from the second floor. The couple's son, Dennis Jr., also got out safely.
"Out here, we were just watching them as they put out the fire and were going up the stairs," he said. Like Parenteau, Dutra said he hoped to be able to get back into his apartment later in the night. The fire was ultimately deemed to have been serious enough to keep the structure evacuated through Friday while a repair plan was considered. The affected families were assisted with temporary housing arranged by the city and the Rhode Island Chapter of the American Red Cross.
Lataille did not know how all that would turn out as his firefighters were still working in the building late Thursday night but he was relieved that their training and professionalism had contributed to a positive outcome on an otherwise difficult day for the city.
"No one was hurt to my knowledge," Lataille said while noting the size of the building and number of residents that had been displaced.
Fires do occur at this time of year as they do even in better weather, and the safety of everyone involved is always the main concern, according to the chief.
The department was able to recall 12 of its members from a planned training class scheduled for Thursday and also brought in some off-duty members to join the mutual aid firefighters in assisting the on-duty personnel, he noted. The responding firefighters also counted on their training in making a quick sweep of the large structure to ensure everyone was out and also on its planning for attacking the source of the fire while minimizing the damage it would cause.
The training was also visible after the fire had been put out and the clean-up work began on Front Street. Small groups of firefighters formed as they were called out of building and debriefed by their captains and deputy chiefs. Lataille had his own quick talks with the officers as emergency lights bathed them in red and white and the sound of running engines and air pack alarms filled the night.
"We've had no civilian or professional injuries reported in either of the two fires," Lataille said. "That's because of the professionalism we have here in the fire department. They pride themselves on this, it is what they do."

I've been wondering about this for awhile. So, is it possible to create a Wi-fi hotspot from an iPhone or 3G iPad?
Take the 2-minute tour ×
Ask Different is a question and answer site for power users of Apple hardware and software. It's 100% free, no registration required.
Yes, it's called "Personal Hotspot" by Apple and works on iPhone 4 and 4S. Here is an Apple support doc on it. Not available on the 3G iPad though, as far as I know.
The short answer is yes. Longer answer, there are two ways of doing it:
This Gadget Review article covers both methods, using both the built-in iOS Personal Hotspot option and the Cydia MyWi app. Other articles include this MacWorld article and the AT&T Wi-Fi main page. Wired has a Verizion-specific article as well.
For the iPad 2, it looks like it's possible with the MyWi app, according to this page. Have never tried it myself though.

Mark Webber was "frustrated" after his third reprimand of the season resulted in a 10-place penalty for the Korean Grand Prix...
Mark Webber was "frustrated" after his third reprimand of the season resulted in a 10-place penalty for the Korean Grand Prix.
In what was arguably the highlight of Sunday's Singapore Grand Prix, the Aussie caught the world's most expensive taxi back to the pits after his own car caught fire.
Webber was forced to park his RB9 on the final lap of the 61-lap grand prix and was given a lift back to the pits by good mate Fernando Alonso, sitting on the side of the Spaniard's Ferrari.
But rather than enjoy the moment, the stewards handed both drivers a reprimand; Alonso for driving in a "potentially dangerous" manner and Webber because he "entered the track without the marshal's permission."
And as it was Webber's third reprimand of this season, the 37-year-old was hit with an automatic 10-place grid penalty for the next race, the Korean Grand Prix.
"There's not much I can say about that," Webber said. "It's very frustrating, but the stewards have made their decision.
"It's now going to compromise my race in Korea, which is tough to take."
The Aussie, though, wasn't the only member of Red Bull venting his frustration as team boss Christian Horner has questioned the "sense" of the penalty.
"Drivers have given others lifts home in previous years - it happened the other way around with Mark and Fernando somewhere else," he said.
"One of the most iconic images I can remember is of Nigel Mansell giving Ayrton Senna a lift home (1991 British Grand Prix).
"On this occasion it was good for the show, it was good TV, and it should have been dealt with a fine or a slap on the wrist.
"What's a shame is that it's ended up in a reprimand, and because it's the third it means a 10-place penalty.
"Unfortunately, reprimands are the only things now available to the stewards, and perhaps in this instance talking to the drivers would have sufficed.
"Ideally, a fine would have been better, but I don't think that's something that's available to the stewards now (teams and not drivers can now only be fined).
"It's frustrating because it now puts Mark on the backfoot in Korea, and that's the bit that doesn't really make sense.
"But I understand the difficulty the stewards have with the penalties they have at their disposal."

Natural Charms, Tourist Attractions
Whatever gets you out into the great outdoors, whether it's a picnic on the grass, a game of cricket, a bike ride through a leafy park, a stroll through history or a bushwalk in rugged surroundings, Sydney and its diverse suburbs have just what you're looking for.
Some of these places are famous and well known, yet even in the very heart of Sydney there are quiet, green, natural, nooks where you'll only hear the sounds of birds tweeting and leaves rustling.
Sydney Harbour brings its own special dimensions to the natural world. The foreshores and harbour islands are accessible places of secrets and mystery. They often come with a great story to tell, and only reveal their natural treasures to those who are prepared to strike out by combination of Sydney Ferries and by foot.
You don't have to travel far from the city to put yourself into the Royal National Park or the fringes of the Blue Mountains, a World Heritage Area. These are wild and rugged tourist attractions where you can go on a real nature tour and bushwalk, hike and camp in rainforests, wetlands and eucalypt woodlands, all cradled by sandstone gorges.
