See What Our Customers Are Saying
I saw the van I bought posted online. I was a little hesitant to proceed since the dealership was 2.5 hours from my house. I was able to discuss the van and pricing with Pete over the phone. He then offered to meet me half way to look at it in person and test drive it. The first thing Pete did when meeting was to point out things that weren't obvious in the online post (scratches, etc.). I found that very upfront. After the test drive I agreed to purchase the van and mentioned that I didn't think the back vents were working. Pete contacted me the next day to tell me that the vents were indeed not working, and that he already had the replacement part on order. He then told me that on his drive back from the test drive he noticed a tire was humming from being out of round. He had a replacement on order for that too (other tires only had a few miles on them so a single replacement was OK). As mentioned, this was AFTER I already signed for the vehicle. If that wasn't enough, Pete arranged to drop the vehicle off at my place of work in Green Bay. I never actually made it to the dealership. I was very impressed from start to finish with both Pete and the dealership he represented. I also love the van. I would highly recommend them to anyone, even if you don't live in the area.

I had the best car buying experience I've ever had at Associated Sales and Leasing. They are totally above board. They tell you up front what they paid for the car, what they did to repair and recondition the vehicle, offer a complete history of the vehicle, and take care of you after the sale. They are what all used car dealers should be.

Skip to comments.(Robin) Williams recovering in Ohio after heart surgery
Posted on 03/23/2009 12:12:46 PM PDT by NormsRevenge
NEW YORK Robin Williams was recovering at the Cleveland Clinic after heart surgery that his doctors deemed successful, his publicists said Monday.
The 57-year-old actor had an operation to replace an aortic valve on March 13, publicists Mara Buxbaum and Chris Kanarick said. He was expected to make a complete recovery in the next eight weeks.
"His heart is strong and he will have normal heart function in the coming weeks with no limitations on what he'll be able to do," said Dr. A. Marc Gillinov, a cardiothoracic surgeon at the Cleveland Clinic. "A couple of hours after surgery, he was entertaining the medical team and making us all laugh."
(Excerpt) Read more at news.yahoo.com ...
na new na new
I was thinking about him the other day. Glad there is an update.
Be a tough guy Robin...I've had 3 of those operations...you'll be fine!! lol
I appreciate a man who puts his money where his mouth is.
p.s. I had surgery on a Wed. and was at the Oklahoma bomb site and the Oklahoma zoo the following Monday. I didn't want to miss anything!! :)
As bad as I hate living in the Cleveland area - we do have some excellent hospitals here.
Best wishes to Robin!
I guess it's a good thing he got this done before he had socialized health insurance.
Robin Williams was born in Chicago.
Robin Williams on a USO tour .. Christmas .. 2003.
When loony libs are sick, they deserve a break...and our prayers. Plus Williams is a USO guy and likes the troops.
Why didn't he use canada's socialized health care for the surgery if socialized medicine is so dandy?
He didn't go to Canada? or Britain?
But they have National Health care!
Oh. He actually want to survive.
Never mind.
I had quadruple bypass surgery a year ago had four aneurysm's two on the back side of my heart and two on the front..I was blessed they found this..and blessed we still have the medical system we have today..
Perhaps because he is not Canadian?
Actions speak louder than words sometimes. ;-)
He hasn't been shy to go where the action is, that's for sure.
It was a rhetorical question and yes, I know he's an American commie.
I think he spent time in the Bay Area from 16 onward and honed his skills there and at Julliard briefly. Chicago has a long comedy tradition tho too.
I, for one, am willing to live with a few "commie" comedians who are willing to go to combat zones and entertain our troops.
Where do you get that info? I've never Williams make any specific political statements except for his usual jokes about political figures.
It kills lots of people who don't know about it till years later (heart damage).
I was wondering the same thing.
That is true!
The mistakes of one's youth can and will come back to haunt one!
I DO remember him making pretty vicious fun of Jimmy Carter during his stand-up act in the late '70s.
He doesn't deny usage... and I would suspect if he was as driven as some, damage is likely, that and steroids can do a number on the ticker.
Get Well Robin and work on your delivery while you have some down time.
Shazbot! yuk!~
Williams has been a long time activist/supporter of liberals/socialists - hellry and her ilk - as well as the homosexual movement.
When I think communists I think Noam Chomsky.
I wish Williams the very best of health. This surgery will no doubt give him lots of new comedy material.
Sorry, I wont waste a prayer on any liberal commie actor just because he is famous and did USO shows to make himself feel good and to be seen doing it. There are too many who are in worse shape who have done much more for their fellow man and not made an ass out of themselves or ran down their own country to raise their stature among their Hollywood commie buddies.
"I had quadruple bypass surgery a year ago had four aneurysm's two on the back side of my heart and two on the front..I was blessed they found this..and blessed we still have the medical system we have today.."
Wow! Blessed indeed. Amazing!
Wasn't Cleveland Clinic number one in the country for heart surgery? Maybe still is.
So that's at least 2 tours.
Good to see my USO donations are being well-spent.
Williams is very liberal, extremely so, and therefore an idiot (and he can afford to be both) but the one redeeming thing concerning him in my view is his continuing support for morale of our Troops.
Perhaps this brush with death might cause him to reflect on some of his positions concerning Health Care and more.
One can dream.
I think that he's a lib, but frankly, who cares? He's good at what he does, and if he chooses to use that talent to entertain the troops, more power to him. I wish him well, hope that he has a good recovery.
Williams makes donations and appearances for liberal politicians often. He has long been big time for John Kerry as an example.
Yeah, he is evil, but I can hack him a little.
If you need valve work, go to the Cleveland Clinic. I had a mitral valve repair there in 2005, and the surgeon was Dr. Gillinov. My cardiologist here in NJ said there are no other hospitals that can match Cleveland's results in valve work. You can go anywhere for a bypass, go to Cleveland if you need a valve job.
It never ceases to amaze me...When some actor/comedian/whoever does something good, there's always some curmudgeon of a FReeper there to question their motivation and their politics. IMHO, If a man does a good thing, it doesn't necessarily make him a good man...but he's a better man for having done it.
He's a tough ole boy! He'll be up and "dwivin in his caw and listenen to the wadio vewy soon"
Williams has a fleeting connection to Canada. One of the badges he wore on his Mork outfit was from a Canadian talk show he appeared on early in his career. Virtually no American who watched Mork and Mindy would have recognized it but some Canadians might have like those who invented Trivial Pursuit.
If you need valve work, go to the Cleveland Clinic. I had a mitral valve repair there in 2005, and the surgeon was Dr. Gillinov. My cardiologist here in NJ said there are no other hospitals that can match Cleveland's results in valve work. You can go anywhere for a bypass, go to Cleveland if you need a valve job.
You are not hospitalized since surgery on 3-13-09 for an uncomplicated "patient is doing very well" aortic valvae replacement. Usual length of stay is 3-5 days.
Yeah,I know...Obama,Emanuel,Blagojevich,Rostenkowski...etc..ad infinitum.
chompsky, obama, xlinton, kennedy, alinsky, et al - communists and all domestic enemies of America.
Chicago has a long comedy tradition tho too.
Yeah,I know...Obama,Emanuel,Blagojevich,Rostenkowski...etc..ad infinitum.
Oh yur a mean one , you are.
My kind of humor. ;-)

Skip to comments.Huffington's Plunder (Liberal journalist explains why people HATE liberals)
Posted on 03/01/2011 7:08:24 AM PST by PanzerKardinal
Any business owner who uses largely unpaid labor, with a handful of underpaid, nonunion employees, to build a company that is sold for a few hundred million dollars, no matter how he or she is introduced to you on the television screen, is not a liberal or a progressive. Those who take advantage of workers, whatever their outward ideological veneer, to make profits of that magnitude are charter members of the exploitative class. Dust off your Karl Marx. They are the enemies of working men and women. And they are also, in this case, sucking the lifeblood out of a trade I care deeply about. It was bad enough that Huffington used her site for flagrant self-promotion, although the cult of the self has reached such dizzying proportions in American society that such behavior is almost expected. But there is an even sadder irony that this was carried out in the name of journalism.
This latest form of liberal exploitation exposes yet again the liberal class for who they really areopportunists whose operating methods are as callous as those used in running the textile mills in southern China. Is it any wonder that working men and women, who have been abandoned and betrayed by these self-identified liberals, hate the liberal class and its transparent hypocrisy? Is it any wonder that the some 40 million Americans who live in poverty are invisible to the wider culture? Is it any wonder that the tea party and all the lunatics on the fringe of our political spectrum put their cross hairs on the liberal class and its purported values? Lets not forget the title of Huffingtons latest book: Third World America: How Our Politicians Are Abandoning the Middle Class and Betraying the American Dream.
Liberals like these deserve the rage they engender.
(Excerpt) Read more at truthdig.com ...
When leftist start realizing that their leftist icons are giving them the finger, liberalism is pretty much over.
Any full explanation of why liberals are hated, loathed, spit upon, and f*rted in the general direction of - - -
would require a 1 terrabyte disk to store it.
Liberals are slime, pond scum, smegma, toe cheese, and armpit lint...and that's just for the start.
And I'm just getting started.
Really . . . they're just now figuring this out?
Gullible liberals have been "exploited" by their leaders for years, but they don't seem to catch on in large numbers.
I wonder if Ariana will 'share the wealth'?
whorington isn't an "icon". she's nobody. It's great when she goes on TV. The more Americans see that leftism/libism is a foreign, unAmerican thing, the happier I am.
This article is leftist bulldrivel. "They are the enemies of working men and women" - lol.
Marx created a system of control. He was NOT a "friend of working men". He fully intentionally created a system to wrest control from one group of dictators and give it to a group of more malevolent dictators. He was an evil man who let his children starve. He codified that evil in a book as his gift of hate to mankind.
When he says that people will work harder if they are working for others, I don't know how anyone can read it and not crack up laughing. It's like you are reading a book by a con artist titled "My scam, and how to pull it off".
Just a lesson on the truth of socialism that will be lost on the useful idiots who made Huffington very rich.
What's wrong with this guy?
What part of "from each according to his ability" doesn't he understand?
Huffpo took "from each" writer/contributor "according to his ability".
They should have been proud to be a part of it.
I have said for years that Hollywood and other rich 'Libs' hide behind their 'Lib" title. They use their Libness to prevent attacks while they carry out their evil ways.
Huffy needed it most of all. LOL
Does not compute - liberalism IS evil...
so how can they hide behind being a liberal to do evil?
Big deal. Arianna owned a website and then sold it to make some cash. People on this forum wouldn't do anything different. By the way, Hedges is the ultimate anti-American, leftist scribbler who's indignant that he didn't make off with any swag on the deal. Just one leftist pig calling another one dirty.
Liberalism is like herpes. It never really goes away.
Considering the impostor they elected to the People's House, I find this statement more than a little bit ironic.
Actually aren't they called capitalists? Are these bloggers being forced to write for H? I don't think so. They do it for whatever reason they have quite willingly. They are all libs and they do what libs do: try to teach us why Marxism is such a wonderful thing. They get what they've earned - nothing.
I'm no Arianna Huffington fan but she has no need to apologize to anyone for taking AOL to the cleaners. $315 million? Give me a break. AOL will be lucky to get 10 cents on the dollar when they try to dump it a few years down the road.
Dontcha just love it when a true blue believer in the leftist/progressive cause all of the sudden comes to realize that he was a useful idiot? As crazy as it may sound, this writer may be on the road to truth and true classical liberalism as laid out in modern day conservatism.
I don't know. Conservatives have been getting the middle finger from supposedly conservative "icons" for some time now. I hope conservatism is not over.
Uh Oh!
Pass the popcorn! This is gonna get rough!
Simple answer to the question: liberal democrats are commies.
She also did the "to each" part pretty well, with regard to herself anyway.
These Huff-Po Progressives allowed themselves to be exploited by a brazen serial opportunist who used their misguided sense of socialist solidarity to rip them off, plunder their work and promote her own glory. Next time, try getting a real job, paying taxes and raising a family instead of playing Boris Bolshevik at age 30 in your parents' basements.
Smegma is one of my favorite insults to use on liberals! They have to look it up to find out they've been insulted!
This is especially true for leftists,
because their primary reason for being leftists
is to feel good about themselves,
to feel superior intellectually and morally.
They've yet to figure it out about Michael Moore!
You can't get a bigger fraud than the liberal elite. Maybe this middle east turmoil has awakened something inside the ignorant Leftist masses that is going to be directed to the Liberal elite.
I would like this guy's definition of poverty because I haven't seen it.
Liberals are so stooopid it takes getting slapped in the face with a wet fish for them to realize what the rest of the world long ago did...
As Ronald Reagan used to say....A liberal is one who has read Karl Marx; a conservative is one who UNDERSTANDS Karl Marx.
If by "sharing the wealth" you mean hiring another nice studly young pool boy, maybe.
I'm sure many of the bloggers were still infected with the "American Dream" that their writing would lead to greater visibility and be part of a career move — basically, they paying their dues, on their way to becoming another moneyed "talking head." In which case they should feel honored to have worked for so an illustrious rag, that provided a vast audience and the potential a great public viewership. So things didn't work out (no big career)... Oh well, become an arch conservative and extract bloody justice.
I read she was gaming the system by fiddling with their content and googles search algorithms. I wonder what AOL thinks about that? Nothing probably. You are likely correct and down the road Zsa-Zsa's little collection of scabbed web content and "original" content from her slave plantation is going to be worth a happy meal.
Speaking of google, what a scam that company has always been. They steal content and get away with it.
LOL - yeah we, the people, are tired of reporters 'giving voice' to the same old tired liberal victim groups. (hint: it's NOT 1968) We're blamed for not giving those endless, overexposed, unbelievable liberal fantasies any hits? Ummm, this guy needs to get out of his bubble and walk among the people for a week - and not the one's some liberal social worker gave him to interview...
I have a book called "Economics Explained". It was co-written by two or three economists. It has a section in which the author deeply and thoroughly kisses Marx's @$$ as one of the greatest, most knowledgeable economists of all time (semi-direct quote "Due to his extensive study of the subject, he had such a deep understanding of economics that it is hard to comprehend".) I quit reading the book after that sentence, since I knew that at least one of the authors had no real comprehension of economics.
A liberal elite 'share HER wealth'?
Don't stop with Arianna. Apply this same analysis to all the top 'Rat movers and shakers. Maybe Valerie "slum lord" Jarrett could be next.
They contracted to write for peanuts, they perceived a value for being in the blog. That she was able to get that kind of money for her blog is probably a combination of shrewd business acumen by her and a moronic decision by AOL.
Huffington couldn't have made one dime without all the willing idiots who paid to read her Marxist crap. THIS WAY TO THE EGRESS! ONLY 50 CENTS!
Actually I think the author has a point.
If Zsa Zsa were a sincere, committed Liberal/Socialist, she would have gladly Shared the Wealth with everyone appearing on the HuffPo.

Hottest 12 Months On Record Globally Thanks To Warm January, Reports NASA
CREDIT: Shutterstock
In January, the planet continued the warming trend that made 2014 the hottest calendar year on record. NASA reports that last month was the second-hottest January on record (after 2007), while the Japan Meteorological Agency ranked it the hottest.
Significantly, there has never been as hot a 12-month period in NASA's database as the previous 12 months (February 2014–January 2015). This is using a 12-month moving average, so we can "see the march of temperature change over time," rather than just once every calendar year.
While it has been cold for those of us living in a slice of the eastern and northeastern U.S., the rest of the country and the globe is quite warm, with large parts of North America and Asia experiencing nearly off-the-charts heat. That's clear in the NASA chart below for January temperatures, whose upper range extends to a whopping 8.1°C (14.6°F) above the 1951-1980 average!
What's remarkable is that we keep breaking the 12-month global temperature record even though we still haven't started an El Niño. It is usually the combination of the underlying long-term warming trend and the regional El Niño warming pattern that leads to new global temperature records, as NASA has explained.
But the human-caused warming is simply too strong to be denied, as it were. If we want to slow it down and ultimately stop it before it destroys a livable climate, it will take some serious cuts in carbon pollution ASAP.
Even though we just set the 12-month global temperature record, we are all but certain to blow past that record for the period March 2014–February 2015. That's because February 2015 will replace February 2014 in the 12-month record, and last February was relatively cool globally whereas this February is on track to be on quite warm globally (notwithstanding the U.S. East Coast).
"The last 12 months have been the hottest 12 months ever recorded," said climate expert Professor John Abraham. "So far, this February is much hotter than last year's. This means that in a month, we will again break the all time record. These records just keep falling."
This calendar year is extremely likely to set the record for the hottest calendar year if we do finally see an El Niño, but it could easily set the record as long as we don't see a La Niña. In any case, humans have pushed atmospheric CO2 to levels not seen for millions of years, when the Earth was considerably hotter and sea levels up to 100 feet higher. So we are going to be breaking annual and monthly temperature records on a fairly regular basis for a long while.

Loop Road work hasn't helped
Published: Tuesday, October 10, 2006 at 3:30 a.m.
Last Modified: Monday, October 9, 2006 at 11:00 p.m.
Dear Editor: The Loop Road work has not helped me one iota. The drain is short of my driveway. Water runs down and into my garage. I have dug a small trench to catch some water or it would reach my lawnmower.
The front yard still has inches of deep water in it when it rains.
The inconvenience of driving four miles to my job instead of one mile has really upset me. No one knows each day which way to drive for jobs and/or business.
I have to leave earlier for my afternoon job to get there on time.
After 27 years here at my home, I didnt see the reason for all this. It sure hasnt helped me.

NLR Company 1st In State To Get OK For Commercial Drone Use By Associated Press • Jun 21, 2015 A North Little Rock company says it's the first in the state to receive Federal Aviation Administration approval to operate unmanned aerial systems, or drones, commercially. Zane Anderson's Aerial Patrol Inc. has operated a commercial helicopter service out of the North Little Rock airport for decades, and it created Airborne Information Systems to launch a drone service for businesses. Utility companies have used Aerial Patrol for years, but Anderson says he wants to persuade them to use the drone service, too. Gov. Hutchinson's Weekly Radio Address: In Praise Of Small Business By KUAR Staff • Jun 20, 2015 Office of the Governor The following is a transcript of Gov. Asa Hutchinson's radio address for the weekend of June 19, 2015: In 2009, a 21-year-old interior design major at the University of Arkansas took a risk, trusted her gut, and started her own business on just $100. Today, that business — a clothing boutique called Riffraff — is a million-dollar operation with storefront locations in Fayetteville and Dallas and a strong online presence. Gov. Radio Address: Promoting Arkansas In Europe By KUAR Staff • Jun 13, 2015 Office of the Governor The following is a transcript of Gov. Asa Hutchinson's Radio Address and Column for the weekend of June 12, 2015: A few weeks ago, I was in Silicon Valley in California. Last week, I was in Newport and Batesville. Saturday, I leave for Paris and Germany. The locations change but the business remains the same — economic development for Arkansas. Jobs. In 2015, we have to be a national and global competitor. And to compete on a national and global level, we have to market Arkansas at every opportunity. That means being there.

Yes, I vaguely remember seeing the king and his side-kick watching and marveling at the killing of a man who had merely been accused, not charged or convicted, in violation of both U.S. and international law. Even the actual killer (assassin) tacitly admitted to breaking the law in that he was worried about the possibility of local law enforcement personnel arriving during his illegal activity.

Playmobil cops broadside for 'racist' pirate slave
Re: Thinking
Thinking? Yes a distinct lack of it. Every culture and society on Earth has engaged in enslaving other people. The colour of the victims has never been a part of it. It seems that one of the reasons the Romans invaded Briton was to obtain a source of slaves. Anyone was at risk of being enslaved, even Julius Caesar!
All of those poor African slaves that were transported across the world were captured and enslaved by other Africans for sale to the really nasty Europeans. Who are therefore the worst?
Which peoples finally decided that slavery was not really a good idea? That's right, the nasty Europeans. Slavery is still going strong in many non-European cultures.

The fact that HUDs are probably a serious distraction makes the mad claims detract from the important message.

GM's cheaper-than-Tesla 'leccy car tested at batt-powered data centre
If we extend your logic, if everyone buys an electric car then no-one pays for the fuel taxes so no-one pays for the roads that are needed to drive all these overweight electric vehicles on. How long do you think your being subsidised by everyone else is going to last? Electric vehicles need to have a milage tax applied to pay for their being on the roads at all, and the tax should take into account the excess weight of the vehicles making them more expensive to fuel than ICE vehicles.

Nobel bro-ffin: 'Girls in the lab fall in love with me ... then start crying'
As iodine has been in salt to prevent the occurence of goitre, an iodine deficiency since early in the 20th century your comment does not address my 1960s. You obviously do not know that the contraceptive pill, even in women with normal thyroid function, reduces the production of T4 thyroid hormone. Hence my comments regarding age, residency and gender of the workmates.
p.s. I have to take T3 (thyroxine), not because of any iodine deficiency, but because of the most common auto-immune disease. It was detected by thyroid function tests (T3, T4 and thyroid stimulating hormone levels plus thyroid auto-antibodies). Additional iodine has no effect.
The best thing would be to get rid of the defamatory expressions "men's" or "womens". No more mens and womens tennis, golf, football rowing running quotas preferences etc. etc. what a great world we could have.
p.s. I have to agree with Sir Tim. I have seen all of the conditions he described, plus a few more. Having done thyroid function tests on young still living at home female workmates in the 60's it could be embarrassing at the time.
Tech giants gang up on Obama over encryption key demands
Encryption for criminal or terror purposes is so easy to produce that it is childs play. Public communications are too easily intercepted and read by the real nasties, those who are "protecting us". Secure encryption easy? I hear you say. Too right mate.
Write out an alphabet and underneath it write the numbers 1-0. Repeat the numbers until the alphabet is used up. On the 3rd time through with Roman letters there will be some numbers left over, so add some useful punctuation [space] [comma] [full stop] perhaps ["]. Depending on how you start and the placement of the punctuation we abtain about 100 distinct cyphers which are difficult for simple frequency analysis to break. By itself suitable for casual protection but easily broken by the experts. To make it very hard to break take a book, any book any language and even another alphabet. Use the system outlined above to number the characters in the book starting at a random or carefully defined place. A defined place could be given by date and/or time as prearanged with the recipient. Add these numbers to your initial encryted message rolling the numbers over so that 18 becomes 8 etc. Either send your now secure message as is or repeat using another book. Write the message onto the back of a letter or postcard using invisible ink (lemon juice or milk work very well). Possibly use the outside of the envelope to write your message on.
As long as the startng place in the book is varied for each message it becomes very difficult to decrypt without the key, and even then needs to be done manually because each code number can have 3 different answers or even 4 if digits were included in the original coding format.
Oooops, I've just described a secure coding system for small cells of crims. or t'rists. Do I hear a black chopper?

Re: Eye for one?
You appear to be taking the after the fact homogenised and adjusted "facts" as being the "truth".
The colonisation of India was not an originally deliberate act by the British government. It came about slowly because of trade. The East India Company wished to trade with the many independant states which made up India. It was normal for caravans of goods to be escorted by armed men becuse of the lawlessness common at the time and place. The company decided it would be more economical and reliable to hire their own permanent guards instead of getting locals in each region on a temporary basis. This guards developed into a company army. The development continued until the company had effectively taken control of much of India. The British government then decided that a British company should not have this sort of control of a foreign region and effectively nationalised the company and in the process turning much of India into British colonies.
What this resulted in was the development of much of India and the suppression of customs which were abhorent to not merely the British, but many of the locals as well. There were indeed things which now would be called oppreseive, but taken in the currency of the times were perfectly normal.
p.s. if you wish to introduce racism to the argument, please remember that racism (frequently called tribalism) is a normal state of mind throughout the world. The slaves exported from Africa to the Americas were after all captured by locals and then sold to the European traders for export. This was usually because the slaves were off a different tribe to the captors and there-fore of no significance.
Chips can kill: Official
Re: What about that 'High Fructose Corn Syrup' then?
Nearly true,but a few minor changes required.
When blood glucose levels (produced by the ingestion of almost any carbohydrate) increase insulin is produced. The higher the level of glucose the more insulin production. The glucose is then stored as glycogen. As the (high) level of glucose is rapidily reduced by the insulin there is a tendency for the glucose level to drop too far. This could be corrected by the production glucogon which is the hormone which converts glycogen back into glucose. However, glucogon is produced more slowly than insulin and the high level of insulin wants to convert the just released glucose back into glycogen. The resulting glucose-glycogon-glucose-etc. fight is solved by the person feeling hungry which is simply corrected by eating. But there is now far too much glycogen for the shor term storage to handle so it now is converted to the long term storage medium, fat!
But the insulin-glycogen fight with the resuling hyper/hypo glycaemia is continuing which demands more food so...........etc.
Simple carbohydrates are possibly the most dangerous food compounds available if taken in more than tiny quantities because they are so easily digested and absorbed and then generate the hormonal imbalance described above. Obesity can be possibly controlled by only eating slowly absorbed foods which require a lot of energy to digest, absorb and be converted into a useful energy source.

This would at a stroke remove all of the double treble and more dipping and allow the taxpayer to know exactly how much tax they really pay. It would have side benefits like reducing the size of tax departments and the numbers of accountants needed in both the public and private sectors thus reducing needed tax takes.
Could you imagine the screams if the average taxpayer discovered that thy were paying 80 or 90% of their income in tax (which they in fact do).

Re: Lack of integrated email/contacts/calendar?
Gmail is not google-Mail, but a mail, contacts and calender application optimised for the Gnome desktop. It also works well on KDE but there is a mail/calender for KDE called KMail. There many other suitable applications for Linux but the problem seems to be that too many people seem to equate computing with Microsoft (Windows etc.) We have therefore a mind-set of users, and possibly admins, that needs to be overcome before Linux is accepted on a commercial or industrial scale.
We got behind the wheel of a Tesla S electric car. We didn't hate it
The problem that most people do not acknowledge with electric cars is:
When all cars are electric and no-one pays fuel (road) tax, how are the roads paid for? Is the assumption made that all electricity is used as automotive energy and then taxed at current automotive fuel rates to replace fuel taxes. People without cars might object to having their electricity bills quadruple.

Scottish leader splurged £20k appealing disclosure of EU membership legal bungle
Re: The no campaign is grasping at straws here
If Scotland should gain independence from the United Kingdom, The United Kingdom ceases to exist. It was formed when Scotland took over England and combined the two kingdoms of Scotland and England into one united kingdom. (The earlier take over of England by Wales did not result in a united kingdom as Wales was a number of Principalities and not a kingdom).
Further, the expression Great Britain used in the meaning "The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland" could no longer be used as a large proportion of the island of Great Britain would not be included. This would hopefully invalidate all of the ridiculous treaties signed by "Great Britain" including the EU treaties allowing the independence of England, Wales and Northern Ireland from foreign domination (the first time from 24th March 1603).
All I can say is roll on Scottish independence and freedom for the English, Welsh and Northern Irish.

Cause found for Ohio crash of Wright flyer replica
SPRINGFIELD, Ohio (AP) – Faulty welding caused engine failure that led to the 2011 crash of a Wright Brothers biplane replica that killed two volunteer pilots, federal investigators said in a report released this week.
The two experienced pilots died when the Wright "B" Flyer replica, dubbed "Silver Bird," crashed during an emergency landing in a field about 3 miles from an airport in Springfield, where they had taken off on July 30, 2011. Springfield is about 45 miles west of Columbus.
The broken propeller-shaft weld led to the loss of the newly built Wright "B" Flyer's left engine during the test flight, according to probable cause report from the National Transportation Safety Board released Tuesday. However, despite losing one of the two engines, the report said, the pilots "should have been able to maintain control of the airplane during the forced landing attempt."
The report noted "incomplete weld penetration" that led to the failure of the joint and the loss of power to the propeller shaft.
The July 30, 2011, crash killed experienced pilots Don Gum, 73, of Beavercreek and Mitchell Cary, 64, of Yellow Springs. The men were members of Wright "B" Flyer Inc., an all-volunteer, nonprofit organization that uses the planes to promote public awareness of Dayton as the birthplace of aviation.
The Dayton Daily News reported that both pilots were certified as commercial pilots and had more than 300 hours of combined flight time in the same make and model as the crashed airplane and more than 4,030 of total flight time.
Witnesses told federal investigators that the plane's engine speed began to vary as it flew at a low altitude. "The airplane was then observed in a spiraling descent to the ground," the NTSB report said.
The group's website said its first Wright "B" Flyer "has been a flying ambassador of Dayton's aviation heritage for more than 25 years." Another non-flying model is on display near Dayton.
Wright "B" Flyer Inc. President Phil Beaudoin told The Dayton Daily News that the company's management and board of directors were reviewing the probable cause report. The organization didn't immediately respond to phone and email messages Friday.

Now, Washington state has become the most recent addition to that list, after hikers found a bat with the disease on a trail in North Bend, about 30 miles east of Seattle. The U.S. Geological Survey's National Wildlife Health Center verified the disease in a little brown bat found on March 11. It died two days later. As Fatal Epidemic Looms, Bat Walk Showcases Local Species By Bellamy Pailthorp • Sep 18, 2013 Bellamy Pailthorp photo / KPLU News Listen Listening... / 3:36 Two times this summer, rabid bats have been found in Seattle's Madison Park neighborhood.

The book argues that, while market forces have propelled the rise in trade and investment and the strengthening of economic bonds between two of the fastest growing regions in the world, the role of governments will be decisive in deepening this integration and in balancing the three pillars of trade, investment, and cooperation.
The seminar will discuss the major highlights of the book on the growing trade and investment relations as well as the growing number of free trade agreements across the Pacific.

"When you accept money in payment for your effort, you do so only on the conviction that you will exchange it for the product of the effort of others. It is not the moochers or the looters who give value to money. Not an ocean of tears nor all the guns in the world can transform those pieces of paper in your wallet into the bread you will need to survive tomorrow. Those pieces of paper which should have been gold, are a token of honor -- your claim upon the energy of the men who produce. Your wallet is your statement of hope that somewhere in the world around you there are men who will not default on that moral principle which is the root of money." ~ Ayn Rand
Smackdown! I Challenge Rumsfeld to a Royal Rumble
In a true democracy, (which we do NOT have), an underling like myself might challenge a tribal leader, especially one not elected, like Rumsfeld, and "call him out," force him to prove himself, especially in his chosen field of expertise. Otherwise, what's the point of democracy?
With that in mind, I challenge Donald Rumsfeld--bully, war criminal, and former college champion wrestler--to a Winner-Take-All wrestling match. Loser accepts the winner's conditions. Loser apologizes, donates his entire wealth to charity, and henceforth works for peace. Or in Rummy's case, war.
Of course, I fully expect a bully like Rumsfeld to dodge this challenge. Bullies, like Rumsfeld, always delegate other bullies to do their fighting. Bullies never fight fair. Bullies prefer to bellow from a podium, surrounded by fawning followers, and legions of brainwashed soldiers. Bullies brag how tough they are, betraying their cowardice to anyone with the slightest intelligence. Bullies--like Rumsfeld--love to bully weaker opponents, or have their henchmen bully weaker victims. After all, bullies are what we have now instead of leaders.
I fully expect to win. Indeed I've already won. You see, I'm only a former high school wrestler, and not a very good one. I wrestled only one year, at Howell High school in Michigan, about 40 years ago, and finished with a record of three wins and four losses. I wrestled in the 127 lb. weight class (I'm now 180 lbs. of pudgy muscle). My defining moment was losing to the eventual state champion when he pinned me in the first period.
Still, I feel confident I'd kick Rumsfeld's ass all over the mat. Why? Because I'm more intelligent now, more savvy--and filled with a distilled rage. I'm younger than Rummy, although his college experience at Princeton, outshines my high school experiences. Still, the best high school wrestler is better than any Ivy League college wrestler, just as any small town, Midwestern politician is better than any Ivy League educated president. Witness Bill Clinton and the two Bushes, mediocrities all, Ivy League educated.
And I feel I could channel the rage of some six billion folks around the world, as Muhammed Ali did in Zaire against George Foreman. Recall that Ali drew his strength from tremendous conditioning, cunning and inner zeal--and the energy of the crowd. Using the same tactics, almost anyone could destroy Rumsfeld, even an 80 year-old man, in the months leading up to and throughout the match.
Rumsfeld would be defeated long before he ever stepped onto the mat. And he knows it. And that is why the squinty-eyed hedgehog would never risk indignity, never risk international shame, risk getting his ass whupped by, God forbid, an underdog!
You see, once you stand up to bullies, they either cower in fright, or they order others to do their dirty work, as we've witnessed in Iraq. And that is exactly what we've seen from Bush, Cheney, Wolfowitz, Perle, Rumsfeld, and that whole rat pack of propagandists at Fox and CNN who front for these cardboard cowards. Bullies all; cowards to a man.
Why would I want to fight Rumsfeld? Because all those worthy officers at the Pentagon who silently oppose him--but who are too worried about their careers, too worried about their retirement plans--are unwilling to speak out. You see, I'm just an ordinary, former enlisted man. Once we sergeants leave the service, we fear no career officers. We have no cushy, high-paying, defense contracting jobs to worry about, as do many career officers.
Another good reason to kick Rumsfeld's ass on national television? Stop Loss. If you're a serviceman who has had his life hijacked by policymakers who never served, Stop Loss is insane. I'll bet a million US servicemen and women would cheer wildly--"STOP LOSS!"--every time I smashed Rummy to the mat.
Of course Rummy would have a few fans in the stadium crowd. Very few, I imagine. Maybe a few brainwashed Army officers, a sprinkling of soldiers, and some of those Rent-a-generals we always see on Fox or CNN.
Now imagine two or three BILLION Pay-per-View customers. WORLDWIDE. All of them cheering for Rummy to lose! From Aruba to Zaire, from Bangladesh to Patagonia, from Crete to New Zealand, the common folks would be tuned in to watch, "Smackdown! Rumsfeld's Royal Rumble"--to see the great warlord lose! Imagine the excitement of 200,000 stadium fans. Imagine Rumsfeld in tights fleeing a grinning, graying, heckling maniac--Me!
We could raise millions. Tens of millions. I'd donate the proceeds to hospitals in Iraq, after I pinned the old warmonger. Donate the millions to those same hospitals Rummy helped destroy in his occupation. Maybe his defeat would then speed up the democratic process, once he got his due, once he conceded defeat. Of course, as most of us already know, the chance of a bully accepting a challenge is nil. Bullies always have others do the fighting for them.

7/23/2016 | Braves' Jenkins set for first Coors Field test

7/23/2016 | Story ties Tulo's NL rookie SS homer record
Trevor Story's two-run homer in the sixth inning against the Braves in Friday night's 4-3 Rockies win was his 24th of the season, which tied the record set in 2007 by former Rockie Troy Tulowitzki for the most home runs by a rookie shortstop in National League history.
7/23/2016 | Arenado snaps slump after rare day off
Nolan Arenado's efforts when not in the lineup on Thursday led to a big performance on Friday -- a first-inning triple and his 24th homer of the season, for two sixth-inning runs -- in a 4-3 victory over the Braves at Coors Field.
7/23/2016 | Anderson looks to capitalize on Braves' aggressiveness
Rockies left-hander Tyler Anderson found success in his last start exploiting the aggressive Rays with his improved fastball command. On Saturday at Coors Field, he'll face an even more aggressive team in the Braves.
7/23/2016 | Rockies hang on after Gray's gem vs. Braves
In a rematch of a pitcher's duel from five days prior against Julio Teheran, the Rockies' Jon Gray got the upper hand. The rookie right-hander tossed seven brilliant innings and closer Carlos Estevez survived a wild ninth for a 4-3 victory over the Braves on Friday night at Coors Field.
7/22/2016 | Descalso steady with bat while moving defensively
Rockies utility man Daniel Descalso has achieved a feat with an underrated degree of difficulty -- maintaining consistency in the batter's box even though he has been forced from his comfort zone defensively.
7/22/2016 | Rockies break routine, take infield practice
Instead of taking batting practice before Friday night's game against the Braves, Rockies manager Walt Weiss had the team work on defensive fundamentals.

7/22/2016 | Change in strategy benefits Bettis
Facing the Braves for the second time in six days, Rockies starter Chad Bettis flipped his strategy. The result was his best start in two months in a 7-3 win over the Braves on Thursday night.
7/21/2016 | Reynolds crushes MLB's second-longest HR of year
The Rockies' Mark Reynolds launched the second-longest homer in the Majors this year, according to Statcast™ -- a 484-foot, pinch-hit, leadoff shot in the seventh inning against Braves relief pitcher Hunter Cervenka on Thursday night.
7/21/2016 | Pipeline preview: Dahl ready for more Triple-A exposure

7/21/2016 | Parra resumes running after slight setback
After a small scare and a three-day break, Rockies outfielder Gerardo Parra -- out with a left high-ankle sprain -- resumed his running program Thursday, and believes he could soon begin a Minor League rehab assignment.
7/21/2016 | Youngsters Gray, Teheran ready for rematch
Friday night's second game of the Braves-Rockies four-game set will pit two exciting young pitchers in a rematch. Colorado's Jon Gray, 24, and Atlanta's Julio Teheran, 25, each tossed seven shutout innings in their matchup at Turner Field on July 17. Gray limited the Braves to five hits with eight strikeouts and three walks, while Teheran held the Rockies to three hits with five striekouts and one walk.
7/21/2016 | 5 reasons Rockies should keep CarGo
Rockies general manager Jeff Bridich got the attention of the baseball world in advance of the non-waiver Trade Deadline a year ago with the Troy Tulowitzki trade. That has created an anticipation for what Bridich might do to add some life to the Deadline party this year, and the focus has been on the possibility of moving Carlos Gonzalez. Here are five reasons why the Rockies would keep Gonzalez instead of moving him at the Deadline.
7/21/2016 | De Leon, Alvarez among top prospect performers Wednesday
Ten was the magic number for a pair of Dodgers pitchers on Wednesday night as both Jose De Leon and Yadier Alvarez struck out 10 hitters in their respective starts for Triple-A Oklahoma City and Class A Great Lakes.
7/19/2016 | McGee eager to face former Rays teammates
Jake McGee is excited for an opportunity to face his former Rays teammates. Although he didn't get to pitch on Monday in the opener of the three-game set, he seems likely to have his name called, since four of the team's eight relievers pitched in the last two days.
7/19/2016 | Inclement weather delaying start of Rays-Rox

Rockies manager Walt Weiss said recently that he was ready to use right-hander Adam Ottavino in high-leverage situations, and Ottavino flourished in his first opportunity.
7/18/2016 | Key stretch for Rockies before Trade Deadline
The Rockies understand that their final homestand before the Aug. 1 non-waiver Trade Deadline could be one of the most defining of the 2016 season.
7/18/2016 | Miller uses break to get healthy ... and married
Right-hander Justin Miller has been resting a strained left oblique since he was placed on the DL on July 5. However, his All-Star break was not quite low key as it was for most, as Miller got married.
