* Weaker yen boosts exporters * Strong financial earnings in the U.S. improves sentiment * Chipmakers lose out after Intel disappoints By Sophie Knight TOKYO, Oct 17 Japan's Nikkei share average took a big step up in early trade on Wednesday as the yen eased to a one-month high against the euro and dollar and as Goldman Sachs' impressive revenues helped dampen fears about disappointing earnings. Exporters were given a leg up as the yen hit 103.51 versus the euro after rating agency Moody's stopped short of downgrading Spanish bonds to "junk" status, affirming them at BAA3 in light of the ECB's promise to buy the bonds if needed. "The fact that they didn't drop it is a plus, and the yen is weaker against the dollar as well, which will lend support to the market today," said Kenichi Hirano, operating officer at Tachibana Securities. A strong yen has prompted fears of further cuts to earnings forecasts for exporters as it erodes their revenues garnered abroad once repatriated. The weaker yen helped Toyota Motor Corp outperform with a 1.8 percent gain on Wednesday and it was the second-most traded stock on the main board by turnover, while Sony Corp picked up 2.9 percent to a three-week high. Those gains helped the Nikkei climb 1.5 percent to 8,830.84, above its 14-day moving average at 8,741.81, while the broader Topix added 1.3 percent to a 2-1/2-week high of 742.11. Following upbeat earnings from Citigroup Inc in the previous session, Goldman Sachs beat expectations overnight as its revenue more than doubled and it raised its quarterly dividend. The securities sector jumped 2 percent, and even news that Nomura Holdings Inc will have to pay a 300 million yen ($3.8 million) fine for leaking information could not dent its advance of 2.2 percent. "I think that the weakness in the global economy and the expectations of poor earnings were pretty much priced in last week and now we're recovering from that sell-off," said Masayuki Otani, chief market analyst at Securities Japan. "Consensus cooled down quite a lot and now people are realising it might have gone too far." The benchmark dropped 3.7 percent last week, its biggest weekly fall since May, after a stream of profit warnings sparked fears of earnings coming in lower than expected, due to a global slowdown, anti-Japanese sentiment and the robust yen. Yet, several Japanese companies are using the strong yen to their advantage by snapping up foreign firms at reasonable prices, a trend brought into focus by Softbank Corp's $20 billion deal to buy a 70 percent stake in Sprint Nextel Corp , announced this week. The mobile provider, an index heavyweight, added 4.1 percent to extend Tuesday's 9.6 percent rise on CEO Masayoshi Son's assurance that the move would not dilute Softbank shares. The shares dropped 20 percent between Friday and Monday on uncertainty about how the deal would be funded. On Wednesday, major trading house Mitsubishi Corp added 0.8 percent after the Nikkei daily said it would buy a 20 percent stake in Indonesian utility Star Energy for $200 million, aiming to double capacity of a geothermal plant in West Java by 2017. "When the yen is moving in a tight range as it is now, it doesn't matter so much to the companies buying up foreign firms," Otani said. "But for exporters it would really help if it eased a little more and made it up to 79 yen to the dollar," he added. Going against the market, chipmakers sagged after Intel Corp , the world's largest chipmaker, forecast gross margins for the current quarter below expectations. Tokyo Electron Limited, Ibiden Co Ltd and Advantest Corp fell between 0.7 and 3.6 percent.

It's that time of year all football coaches hate.
While most of the players are on campus for summer school and going through conditioning and voluntary workouts, it's also a given that the players have more free time than usual.
That means more time to get in trouble, get injured away from football or just generally find themselves in a precarious position that leads to off-the-field issues.
And many times, it's just bad luck.
A year ago, the whole state of Mississippi collectively held its breath after initially hearing about the scary car wreck involving Dexter McCluster and Greg Hardy. Fortunately, they escaped without serious injury after a car pulled out in front of them, although Hardy did aggravate his foot injury.
More recently, it was Kentucky running back Derrick Locke, who broke a bone in his left forearm during a moped accident last week. Locke will be in a splint for four weeks and re-examined by doctors at that point.
The good news is that it doesn't appear he will need surgery, which means he should be good to go when preseason practice begins in August.
In the immortal words of Sgt. Phil Esterhaus on "Hill Street Blues," let's be careful out there.

Polarimetric interferometric synthetic aperture radar (SAR) is more advantageous than either polarimetric or interferometric SAR alone in extracting information from vertical object structure. Generally, for spaceborne SAR, its resolution is low and several targets may be contained in the same resolution cell. Based on the characteristics of spaceborne SAR, a built-up area scattering model (BASM), considering buildings and vegetation in the same resolution cell, is proposed to extract building parameters using L-band polarimetric interferometric SAR data. For single-baseline polarimetric interferometric SAR, the scattering component related to the natural targets could be removed from polarimetric coherency matrices and polarimetric interferometric matrix. Then building parameters could be estimated using the BASM after detecting built-up areas. The BASM is validated using ALOS PALSAR L-band polarimetric interferometric SAR data and experimental results indicate that building parameters could be effectively extracted by the proposed BASM.

The human oral cavity is host to a complex microbial community estimated to comprise > 700 bacterial species, of which at least half are thought to be not yet cultivable in vitro. To investigate the plasmids present in this community, we used a transposon-aided capture system, which allowed the isolation of plasmids from human oral supra- and subgingival plaque samples. Thirty-two novel plasmids and a circular molecule that could be an integrase-generated circular intermediate were isolated.
The human oral cavity contains a complex microbial community estimated to comprise > 700 bacterial species (Kazor et al., 2003; Paster et al., 2006; Dewhirst et al., 2010). Mobile genetic elements are a fundamental part of this community, disseminating genes that facilitate adaptation or enabling the exploitation of certain environmental niches. Conjugative transposons have been shown to be responsible for the transfer of antibiotic resistance genes within the oral cavity (Warburton et al., 2007). However, data on the plasmid population within the oral metagenome are limited.
A number of early studies investigating extrachromosomal DNA in bacteria isolated from the oral cavity have reported the presence of small cryptic plasmids in strains of Streptococcus mutans (Dunny et al., 1973; Macrina et al., 1977; Caufield et al., 1982; Bergmann et al., 1990). In addition, Yagi et al. (1978) reported a plasmid from Streptococcus sanguis (now Streptococcus sanguinis) that confers resistance to erythromycin, lincomycin and streptogramin. Plasmids have also been identified from a number of other oral bacterial species, including Bacteroides melaninogenicus (Vandenbergh et al., 1982), Prevotella nigrescens (Teanpaisan et al., 1996), Fusobacterium nucleatum (Paula et al., 2003) and the oral treponemes (Ivic et al., 1991; Chan et al., 1996).
However, a major limitation of previous studies investigating the presence of plasmids in oral species is the reliance on bacterial culture, sometimes in conjunction with antibiotic selection. Because approximately 50% of oral bacteria cannot yet be cultured (Wade, 2002; Kazor et al., 2003), plasmids present in these organisms will be missed. Furthermore, plasmids lacking genes conferring resistance to antibiotics will also be missed in studies that use antibiotics as a selection. Therefore, this study uses a transposon-aided capture (TRACA) method (Jones & Marchesi, 2007), which is independent of bacterial culture or phenotype selection, to isolate plasmid DNA from dental plaque samples taken from patients with periodontal disease.
Supragingival and subgingival plaque samples were collected from 50 patients presenting with periodontal disease ranging from gingivitis through to severe periodontitis, including aggressive periodontitis (UK Research Ethics Committee approval, reference number 06/MRE01/35). All patients were 18 years of age or above, had not taken antibiotics and had not had extensive dental treatment within the previous 3 months. The DNA was extracted from the plaque samples as described by Hunter et al. (2011) and pooled.
This technique was performed as described previously (Jones & Marchesi, 2007). Briefly, ~1 μg of metagenomic DNA was digested with plasmid-safe™ DNase (Epicentre) to remove sheared genomic DNA. The sample was then subjected to an in vitro transposition reaction using the EZ-Tn5 OriV/Kan2 transposon (Epicentre). The reaction was purified and concentrated to a final volume of ~10 μL using a YM-100 microconcentrator column (Millipore). All of the EZ-Tn5 reaction was electrotransformed into 100 μL Escherichia coli Transformax EPI300-T1R cells (Epicentre) under the following conditions: 18kV cm−1, 200 Ω resistance, 25 μF capacitance (Biorad Pulser II) in a prechilled 0.1 cm3 electroporation cuvette. Immediately after electroporation, 900 μL of SOC medium was added and the cells were transferred to a 15 mL falcon tube and incubated horizontally at 37°C with shaking at 200 r.p.m., for 1 h. Transformants were selected on Luria–Bertani agar containing 50 μg mL−1 kanamycin and incubated at 37°C, aerobically, for up to 48 h.
The initial sequence data from each plasmid were obtained using primers FP-1 and RP-1 located at the ends of EZ-Tn5 (Epicentre). The complete sequence of each plasmid was obtained using a primer walking strategy. Given the number of plasmids isolated, a minimum of double sequence coverage was determined. ORFs were defined as nucleotide sequences with the potential to encode proteins > 39 amino acids and preceded by a Shine–Dalgarno sequence at an appropriate distance. Plasmid schematics were constructed using Vector NTI (Invitrogen).
The DNA sequences of the plasmids have been deposited in GenBank under the following accession numbers: pTRA-CA41 (HM560024), pTRACA42 (HM560025), pTRACA45 (HM560026), pTRACA61 (HM560031), pTRACA63 (HM 560027), pTRACA66 (HM560028), pTRACA69 (HM56 0029), pTRACA73 (HM560030).
DNA from a pooled plaque sample was subjected to a TRACA reaction (see Materials and methods). A total of 33 kanamycin-resistant transformants were isolated, each containing an EZ-Tn5:: plasmid cointegrate. Sequence analysis revealed that the captured circular DNA ranged in size from 0.9 to 7.3 kb, with a G+C range of 30–52% (Fig. 1). Of the 33 plasmids, 29 belong to one of four distinct groups based on their homology to each other (> 92% nucleotide identity): the pTRACA41 group (pTRACA41 and pTRACA58), the pTRACA42 group (pTRACA42, 44, 46, 47, 48, 49, 50, 51, 52, 53, 54, 55, 56, 57, 59, 60, 62, 64, 65, 67, 68, 70 and 72), the pTRACA63 group (pTRACA63 and pTRACA43) and the pTRACA69 group (pTRACA69 and pTRACA71). The remaining four plasmids, pTRACA45, pTRA CA61, pTRACA66 and pTRACA73, share no homology with other plasmids identified in this study.
A number of putative ORFs were identified on each of the plasmids (Fig. 1). The closest matches with the predicted amino acid sequence of these ORFs, identified by blastp analysis, are listed in Table 1. Some of these ORFs are predicted to encode polypeptides with homology to proteins of known function, such as replication, mobilization or plasmid stability. Others encode hypothetical proteins, many of which show no significant homology to sequences in both the NCBI protein and the nucleotide databases, indicating a potential reservoir of genes encoding as yet uncharacterized functions.
A putative replication (Rep) protein was identified in all except one (pTRACA61) of the plasmids isolated in this study (Table 1). The Rep from pTRACA45 shares 71% amino acid identity to that of pJD1, a 4.2-kb cryptic plasmid from Neisseria gonorrhoeae (Korch et al., 1985). Furthermore, the two additional ORFs on pTRACA45 are also closely related to those on pJD1 (Table 1), while its G+C content (50.6%) is similar to that of pJD1 (51.5%) and the genomes of Neisseria spp. (~51%), indicating that it is of neisserial origin.
The Rep proteins of the other 32 plasmids are more distantly related (25–43% amino acid identity) to plasmids found in bacteria belonging to either the Firmicutes or the Proteobacteria phyla. The pTRACA42-group comprises the majority of the plasmids isolated, 23 in total. This suggests either that this group of plasmids is more abundant in the oral metagenomic DNA and/or is more stable in the E. coli host. The plasmids within this group differ in length (1467–1482 bp) and share > 92% nucleotide identity. One plasmid, pTRACA42, was selected for further study. The putative Rep protein is most closely related to that of the small, cryptic plasmid pCL2.1 from Lactococcus lactis (Chang et al., 1995) (Table 1). However, the G+C content of the pTRACA42 group of plasmids (~52%) is considerably higher than that of pCL2.1 (34%) and of L. lactis genomes (~35%), suggesting that they are not of lactococcal origin. The other ORFs on these plasmids have no significant homology to any proteins in the database. Interestingly, nucleotide sequences with over 80% identity to pTRACA42 were identified in one of the two human lung viral metagenomes – project ID: 28439 (Dinsdale et al., 2008). The majority of the sequences in this metagenome were from phage.
The Rep protein from pTRACA66 is also most closely related to that from an L. lactis plasmid, specifically pKL001 (Table 1). However, the G+C content of pTRACA66 (45%) is higher than that of pKL001 (32.9%) and the L. lactis genomes (~35%), suggesting that it is not of lactococcal origin. This plasmid contains an ORF with the potential to encode an integrase and three other ORFs that have no significant homology to anything in the protein or the nucleotide databases (Table 1).
The Rep associated with the pTRACA63 group of plasmids are most closely related to that from pAB49, an Acinetobacter baumannii plasmid (Table 1). However, the G+C content of pAB49 (38.8%) and the genomes of Acinetobacter spp. (38–42%) are much lower than that of pTRACA63 (50.4%), suggesting that pTRACA63 originates from a different bacterial genus. This plasmid also contains an ORF with the potential to encode an integrase.
The Rep proteins associated with plasmids from the pTRACA41 group and pTRACA73 are most closely related to those on pTRACA20 and pTRACA22, respectively, plasmids isolated from the gut metagenome using TRACA (Jones & Marchesi, 2007) (Table 1). Interestingly, the Rep from the pTRACA41 group and pTRACA73 are related to that of pTS1 (24% and 43% amino acid identity, respectively), a cryptic plasmid from the oral bacterium, Treponema denticola (Chauhan & Kuramitsu, 2004).
In addition to the rep gene, a number of other putative ORFs were identified on each plasmid (Fig. 1.) The identities of the top hits identified by blastp analysis are listed in Table 1. Some of the ORFs on pTRACA73 are predicted to encode polypeptides with shared function, such as mobilization or plasmid stability, to those present on pTRACA22. However, based on sequence analysis, they are only distantly related and the G+C content of pTRACA73 (30.7%) is much lower than of pTRACA22 (51.4%). In contrast, the genes encoding polypeptides on the pTRAC41 group of plasmids share no homology with those present on pTRACA20; however, the G+C content of pTRACA41 (49.5%) is similar to that of pTRACA20 (48.7%).
In contrast to the other 32 plasmids, pTRACA61 does not contain a rep gene homologue, but contains an integrase gene homologue sharing 34% amino acid identity to a tyrosine integrase family protein (accession number ZP_06402565). It is possible that this is a circular intermediate of a mobile element. Integrases are site-specific recombinases that frequently produce circular molecules by recombination between their target sites (for reviews, see Smith & Thorpe, 2002; Roberts & Mullany, 2009), providing the intriguing possibility that TRACA has the ability to isolate mobile genetic elements other than plasmids.
The 159 metagenomic data sets currently in the NCBI database were investigated for the presence of the plasmid DNA isolated in this study; however, except for pTRACA41 no homology was found.
This study has identified several novel plasmids, most of which encode hypothetical proteins of unknown function. This shows that there is a relatively unexplored genetic reservoir in the oral metagenome. Although previous studies have reported plasmids in oral streptococci (Dunny et al., 1973; Yagi et al., 1978; Caufield et al., 1982; Vandenbergh et al., 1982), none were captured by the TRACA system. This may be because the bacterial community found at periodontal disease sites is dominated by obligate anaerobes, and streptococci are typically associated with periodontally healthy sites (Paster et al., 2001). However, the rep genes associated with pUA140 (Zou et al., 2001) and pLM7 plasmids, from S. mutans, could be detected in the sample by PCR amplification (data not shown). Similarly, plasmids previously isolated from gut bacteria were also not captured by Jones & Marchesi (2007), suggesting a limitation of the TRACA system. It is possible such plasmids are unstable in E. coli, refractory to transposon insertion or are not present in high enough copy number to enable capture. Furthermore, all the plasmids captured were < 8 kb, mirroring the majority of the previously reported plasmids from oral bacteria, although large plasmids have been reported from the oral cavity (LeBlanc et al., 1993). Whether the isolation of only small plasmids with TRACA is a result of them being numerically dominant in the oral cavity and therefore preferentially captured or a possible limitation of the TRACA system is unknown. It is known that there is a logarithmic decrease in the transformation frequency of plasmids as the size increases; thus, larger plasmids will simply transform less easily into E. coli (Szostková & Horáková, 1998). Larger plasmids will also be present in lower copy number, making them harder to capture by TRACA. We are currently investigating whether the substitution of different origins of replication into Tn5 has allowed the capture of different plasmids. It also has to be borne in mind that it is not expected that the TRACA process is likely to capture linear plasmids because the origin of replication used by the modified Tn5 does not have the ability to replicate their extreme termini; these require specialized enzymes (reviewed in Ravin, 2003).
The TRACA protocol has successfully captured novel plasmids from human oral plaque, many of which carry genes encoding as yet uncharacterized functions. TRACA has an advantage over other plasmid isolation techniques as it does not require the expression of plasmid-encoded genes in a surrogate host; thus, as illustrated by this study, novel plasmids and circular molecules can be isolated.
This study has been carried out with financial support from the Wellcome Trust reference number 078131/Z/05/Z.

This was my husband and I first stay at this hotel and also our first time traveling with our dog. I thought the hotel was very nice and clean. Check in was very quick and when I asked some questions the front desk was very knowledgable. The room had a nice view of the beach and was very clean for being a pet room. Housekeeping does a great job!! The dog park area was really nice, that is one reason why we choice this hotel over another Choice hotel. I can't trust my dog off leash, so this was a nice way for him to be off leash and stretch his legs. When we stepped out the second day I let front desk know so that the housekeeper could clean our room and she had it done by the time we got back. Everyone was very friendly! We hope to come again off season, since that is the only time dogs are aloud on the boardwalk.

Skip to comments.Another Prediction from an "Retired" Freeper
Posted on 03/22/2010 12:39:38 PM PDT by Scythian
In my article from Sept 2009 titled Why Government Health Care Will Pass - IT IS A GIVEN. HERE'S WHY (vanity) I predicted it would be rammed down our throats regardless of any campaign ramifications. The reason is they win by passing it, and have now won entirely. Let me go onto to tell you what is now going to happen. They are outplaying you (or rather the republican's it's .. well, frankly, embarrasing)
1) The new health bill can never be, nor ever will it be repealed, it will be the law of the land.
2) All the state lawsuits against it will come to nothing.
3) Within a matter of a few weeks Healthcare will fall off the radar and Amnesty will be front and center, and it too will pass, and they will then have healthcare being legal citizens.
4) There will be 20 to 30 million more very energized voters in the Democratic camp hungry to keep them in power and ensure they maintain thier free health care (paid for by hard working Americans). This will take the pain out of any backlash in the upcoming elections. The Republicans and Tea Partiers will tear each other apart like fools fighting in a burning house, but they can do nothing else, the RNC is on the other team.
Like me playing my 8 year old son in game of chess, the opposition will be picked apart. My son and daughter were playing each other and my son won a few times, he came in bragging he was going to mop the floor with me, he managed to take only a single pawn and he was in checkmate, stunned.
The republicans think the fight is on, however, the democrats are looking 4 to 5 moves down the road, health care won't even be in the news in a month or so, it will be a given that it's the law of the land as the Amnesty debate rages on (allowing the MSM to ingore all opposition and voices to the Health Care bill).
Check and Mate.
- Scythian out. Back into retirement, will repost when this all comes to pass.
PS: Enjoy life, don't fight it, it's done wonders for me to release all this. (I still vote, but I know what is "is" and who won)
These are all dem plants who want to discourage us. You are no freeper in my mind!
Which will ensure that a republican is NEVER elected again.
"Enjoy life" dont fight it? What the hell is that about. You said you have an 8 year old son. What are you teaching him. to enjoy life and live off the govt???? Yes you are a freeper a longtime freeper. But you have lost your mind. Please come back.
I will fight to the end. Do us a favor and move out of the country. I have no time for quitters!
Artist : Frank Sinatra
Song : High Hopes
Writer(s): Cahn/van Heusen
Next time your found, with your chin on the
There a lot to be learned, so look around
Just what makes that little old ant
Think hell move that rubber tree plant
Anyone knows an ant, cant
Move a rubber tree plant
But hes got high hopes, hes got high hopes
Hes got high apple pie, in the sky hopes
So any time your gettin low
stead of lettin go
Just remember that ant
Oops there goes another rubber tree plant
When troubles call, and your backs to the wall
There a lot to be learned, that wall could fall
Once there was a silly old ram
Thought hed punch a hole in a dam
No one could make that ram, scram
He kept buttin that dam
cause he had high hopes, he had high hopes
He had high apple pie, in the sky hopes
So any time your feelin bad
stead of feelin sad
Just remember that ram
Oops there goes a billion kilowatt dam
All problems just a toy balloon
Theyll be bursted soon
Theyre just bound to go pop
Oops there goes another problem kerplop
Thank you, Jim Jones Kool-Aide Drinker. "All is well children, all is well. Don't fight it children. Just drink the Kool-Aide."
You just can't quit, can you.
You forgot the part about learning to love Big Brother.
Oooooooh. I see now. Tote the party line or be gone, hmm?
Sorry, pal. Doesn't work that way.
What if George Washington had said that?
I don't think there's much to be optimistic about.
Does this mean that the US is gone? Does anyone else here fear that the country will break apart within their lifetimes?
He's correct of course. Amnesty will actually be a universal ammnesty, and that will bring on universal voter registration - if not included in the universal amnesty bill.
The Republicans, conservatives, tea partiers are all playing checkers - which is why they continue to lose playing chess with the Dem chess masters.
Or provide a solution...
As a noted patriot stated long ago when conditions for the birth of the Republic were much more dire than current predictions of its death.
"I have not yet begun to fight."
As to health care...I'm already sick of hearing from the press what a "masterful" job Pelosi and Obama have done with the Health Care Monstrocity.
What the State-run Media (aka the Main Stream Media) will not tell you is that if it was masterful, it was only masterful in its lies, deciet, and treachory. They used trickery, sculldruggery, bribery, threats, and lawlessness to pull this Health Care Vote out by the skin of their teeth...and the battle is still far from over.
Stupak was not padding to a democrat victory. No the EO deal was the democrat leadership's last ditch gasp to gett the votes they needed...because the vote makes clear that they did not have them before. And Stupak and those listening to him fell for it and will be forever remembered for being duped, bribed, and sashayed into supporting a bill that will use tax payer money to pay for abortion...and ruin the best health care services in the world as they are found in this nation...and enslave our children and grandchildren in debt. I do not know what all they were promised, or threatened with...but you can bet that it had a lot more to it than a rediculous Executive Order which will not stand or be used to stop it anyway.
We have a band of traitors running this country. I know of no other way to state it or express it. That is the truth about Barrack Hussein Obama and those in league with him.They have proven by their words, their deeds, and their stances...for decades...what they are, and now they have punctuated it with this God-forsaken, monstrocity social health care bill, and intend to continue punctuating it with amnesty for illegal aliens, a world-wide socialist cap and trade effort...among many other things. They are marxist ideologs who hate the free market, who hate free enterprise, who disdain the constitution and its attending, foundational principles, who reject freedom and personal responsibility, and who promise the wrteched masses that they themselves have created through dependancy, anything they think they want, so they can amass power to themselves and destroy this Republic, its liberty and way of life, and make it over into a decrepid socialist/marxist state where they and their cronies amass tyranical power unto themselves.
This cannot stand...indeed, this MUST NOT STAND. We must press forward to the elections of 2010 and throw these enemies out with such resounding clarity that it cannot be denied either here or abroad what is occurring. We must do so by turning to the constitution and the principles that are its foundation and then electing only those candidates who swear their allegiance to that constitution and those principles.
Nothing else will do and I believe enough Americans are recognizing the current dire circumstances and willing to do something about it to turn it around.
During the Carter days, what Reagan accomplished because the people rejected Carter and his attempts to socialize and tear down this country, is an example of what we are about to experience agains IMHO.
I will admit, that if, as a people, we do not turn away from the course these quislings and traitors have set us on, then, as history and God are our witness, we will ultimately be left only with same course our own forefathers were compelled to take...that is, the force of arms, in the hands of citizens and citizen soldiers of this country to route these traitors out.
We are at a monumental crossroads in our nations history. We are on a path to self destruction and the loss of our freedom and way of life. But we have the opportunity to turn off that path and return to the principles that have made America free and prospered her.
Rise up O America, your liberty is calling!
But as more and more get involved with the all types of efforts to find and support constitutional candidates : RESTORE THE CONSTITUTION EFFORT
Or come together with, discuss, and plan activities to take back our Republic at : FREERPUBLIC.COM CONSERVATIVE ACTIVISM
Or join a TEA PARTY like our founders, to turn this marxism/socialism around TEA PARTY NATION and, or TEA PARTY PATRITOTS
And stay true to your oath to protect and defend the Constitution at OATHKEEPERS - NOT ON OUR WATCH
...as all these things continue to happen (and they are happening all around us by the millions), we will throw off those who are bringing us down.
Sincerely, and in liberty,
Jeff Head

But...but, I have all this ammo.
Don't feed the troll.
Always find it so amazing how all the people who posture as if they have perfect clairvoyance and know exactly what the future holds always waste all their time posting vanities here instead of using their self proclaimed powers of prediction to win the lottery or corner the stock market.
Anyone who gives up fighting these communists is a gutless coward imo and no freeper. JMO
Why don't you just leave again, and when your right mind comes back, return here yet again. Drama queen?
The DNC is all for importing voters who do NOT see Socialism as a dirty word.
The fight is on to preserve America, a nation founded on a philosphy, from being hijacked by the Red Diaper Doper Babies.
The Left knows they cannot be HONEST about their love of Socialism. They call it a dirty tactic to call them SOCIALISTS. They spin it as the idological and argumentative equivalent of calling someone a "fascist".
Why so Socialist, people?
And this WILL be repealed.
If prohibition could be repealed, this can.
Well hell, if we had to rely on you we might as well just roll over and give up.
What do you suggest we do other than just say it is over? In my office if someone has a complaint, I require they also bring an alternate solution. I don't have to be as polite with people on the Internet when demanding the same thing.
Axelrod? Rahm is that you?
Regardless of your psychic abilities, America was built on freedom. We have the Constitution. THIS will be repealed through SCOTUS. It may be years before it is done but it will happen. Progressive marxists want us to give up and beleive they have a right to take away our freedom. THEY DO NOT. They tried in the '30's and SCOTUS stopped them.
If we the people do not stop them, other higher powers will.
George, go back, you have no chance!
Go ahead and surrender but we will not.
Rather than insulting the poster personally, why don't you point out where you think he is wrong?
When this occurs, all the people who depend on government for their daily needs will be in deep doo-doo.
Many of them will turn to crime and when they do it will be open season on them.
This will not turn out well for anyone, but the survivors win.
Enjoy your retirement for as long as Obama allows you to live.
Sadly, perhaps it has become irretrievable. Just as the Pilgrims left England, it may be time for those that value freedom in the USA to do the same in search of a new place. The poster is correct in the long run, how long it takes is probably the only question.
Unfortunately, you neglect to understand the power of the people in tossing all of them out!
And BWT I never claimed anything — just stated the obvious and cited the bills now under consideration - universal amnesty and universal voter registration.
I think they call this drive by d*uchebaggery. The OP sounds angry, defeated , maybe his wife left him for the plumber, or fantasizes about it, who knows such things. Would you want to be married to such a raisin testicled wimp?
Tax payers will eventually take up Arms or Fall of the Grid. One or the other will happen bet on it.
You only can push a mule so far.
Unless the usual set of clowns actually want to post some serious rational thoughtful posts, they should not waste our time, and bandwidth, with this sort of moronic Chicken Little style hysteric defeatism. This sort of vapid bloviating based on nothing more then the author's arrogant self regard for misplaced notions of his self appraised intellectual infallibility is a utterly chidlish waste of our time and resources
Now go away and let us fight for you sheeple.
Can you refute Scythian's prediction?
We'd all love to hear your ideas.
You know my brother?
***There will be 20 to 30 million more very energized voters in the Democratic camp***
Even if granted amnesty to live and work in the US, they will be not be eligible to vote, unless and until they have been certified as legal residents and QUALIFIED to become naturalized US citizens after FIVE YEARS of residency.
Unless the usual set of clowns actually want to post some serious rational thoughtful posts, they should not waste our time, and bandwidth, with this sort of moronic Chicken Little style hysteric defeatism. This sort of vapid bloviating based on nothing more then the author's arrogant self regard for his misplaced notions of his supposed intellectual infallibility is a childish act of hubris and a total waste of our resources
Ummmm, collecting some of the loot the gov is stealing from your fellow freepers?
Unless Republicans like McCain or Snowe vote for it, which they will.
They will use the nuclear option and amnesty will pass... war is coming... or the end of the Republic will... one way or the other.
That is why nearly every post I make includes the only answer that I could come up with, November election notwithstanding, is to bring down the current corrupt and arrogant government in any constitutional way possible. Even if we have to make moot every change to it in the last 100 years.

Product Description
"Much more than a field guide with recipes, this is a fascinating introduction to the nearly lost art of foraging for wild edibles. Tama and Eddy are truly passionate in their approach; their enthusiasm is inspiring."
—David Tanis, author of Heart of the Artichoke and Other Kitchen Journeys
"I love any book that brings more plants into our world, and wild plants have the most special place in the kitchen. The combination of sound information and delectable recipes couldn't be more enticing. A lovely book!"
—Deborah Madison, author of Local Flavors
"This is a charming and informative introduction to harvesting and cooking with wild plants in a sustainable and environmentally sensitive way. Eddy Leroux's interesting and delicious recipes alone make the book a must-have."
—Daniel Patterson, chef-owner of Coi
"Foraged Flavor is the perfect guide for the home cook to the bounty and beauty of what's growing right there in your own backyard. Tama shares her enthusiasm for foraging and turns you on to harvesting from the 'wild' and Eddy's recipes turn the 'wilderness' into pure deliciousness."
—Melissa Hamilton and Christopher Hirsheimer, authors of Canal House Cooking
"Foraged Flavor isn't just a collection of gourmet recipes for weeds and other unappreciated plants. . . . [It] matches the distinctive, variously nutty, tart, sour, hot, minty tastes of these wild herbs—for a weed, after all, is just a plant we don't like—with their soul mates (ginger or mustard or pine nuts)."
—The New York Times
"Foraged Flavor is an unusual book in that it's a joint effort between a forager (Wong) and a chef (Leroux), so in may ways, it provides the best of both worlds: information on the plants plus recipes that provide a sophisticated, culinary usage that go beyond teas and salads."
"The book could be called Foraged Urban Flavor as I count only a handful of plants in the book that I can't find growing wild in my own garden or within a short distance. . . . The ingredients are easy to source (even in my inner-city neighborhood) and the recipes are simple enough that someone like me could follow them."
"In a few hours a truck would arrive at Ms. Wong's house in rural Hunterdon County [New Jersey] to pick up bags of deadnettle, creeping jenny, chickweed, and other plants most people would step over or pull out. They will be delivered to Daniel, the three-Michelin-star Manhattan flagship of chef Daniel Boulud. Ms. Wong is the restaurant's forager, relied on to help keep the menu diverse, unique, and flavorful. 'With Tama, the level of trust is absolute,' said Daniel's chef de cuisine Eddy Leroux . . . The recipes [in Foraged Flavor] are largely simplified versions of dishes on the Daniel menu, such a pan-roasted wild turbot with pine needles and spring wild herb ravioli with Gorgonzola, which includes deadnettle, wild garlic mustard, chickweed, and dandelion."
—The Wall Street Journal

Customer Reviews
Top Customer Reviews
As a kid I remember reading camping type books that listed plants that you could eat to survive while lost in the woods, or plants that taste similar to, and can substitute, other flavours. This book is not along those lines at all. Instead, the author has considered wild plants that are relatively common that provide unique tastes, and provides information on the season when these tastes are available. Also noted is that many of these are not new, but rather lost from the past as our diets have become homogenized.
This information is accompanied by recipes that provide a starting point for exploring how to introduce these elements into your cooking, either as herbs or as part of the entre itself. While based upon the work of a famous chef, the recipes are not the least bit intimidating and are clearly hoped to be useful for regular meals, not just special occasions.
These two elements are tied together with the personal narrative of the authors as to how they became involved with this venture, which makes it a much more compelling read than a simple catalogue of plants that you have never thought of as food, and what you might do with them if you got interested.Read more ›
Most Helpful Customer Reviews on Amazon.com (beta)
A great plus is that this isn't an exhaustive guide to all edible wild plants -- it's not a Peterson's guide. Rather, it's a selection that tries to be balanced in flavor, texture, and use. It's more of a kitchen companion than a backpacker's foraging guide. You can go out and find many of the ingredients in a matter of minutes.
Additionally -- and perhaps most importantly -- the recipes are easy. Coupled with the easy-to-find nature of the foods, this makes for a relatively painless introduction to food foraging.
Highly recommended for people who are just getting into local foraging.

Today, my family was cleaning out our basement when I noticed an empty wall. I asked my grandma if I could put a picture up. She replied, "I don't want your ugly drawings on the wall". I wasn't talking about my drawings. FML

Today, I found dog poop in my room that had probably been there for days. My girlfriend, who was watching the house, said she didn't realize it was there, because she thought it was the smell of her own farts. FML

Today, I was outside talking to my new neighbor. I was gesturing while talking and didn't notice the little kid riding her bike coming our way. I ended up accidentally smacking her in the face and knocking her off her bike. Apparently she's my new neighbor's daughter. Welcome to the neighborhood. FML

Today, my mum took away my laptop and my phone and won't let me call, text, or go out with friends for one month. Why? I left the toilet seat up. I'm writing this from a public library. FML

Today, I was going down on my boyfriend when he stood up on the bed to get a different experience. I started to get aggressive and pushed him up against the wall. I forgot our bed was on wheels and the bed started sliding away and his body slid down the wall. So much for being sexy. FML

Today, I washed all the dishes and cups from the family dinner last night and put them away. When my wife saw, she had a mini OCD breakdown and yelled at me because the cups weren't lined up with each other with the handles aligned and the flower pictures facing out left. FML
