You have 3 separate FICO scores because there are 3 different CRAs. However, TU and EQ are the only ones a consumer can buy. EX quit selling theirs to the consumer in 2009. Other than myFICO, it is hard to even find those.
Where are you getting your score?
When I log into my account it says Fair Issac Corp in the browser.
So in hindsight I should have paid the $18 or whatever to get my TU Report? And then I would have had my TU FICO? Crap. I did not know there were 3 and you would think since there are 3 that FICO themselves could provide all 3.

A Gene Gives a Hint Of How Long a Person Might Hope to Live
Those With One Form of It Stay Free of Alzheimer's and Heart Ills Longer -- Cost of Sloppy Housekeeping
For several weeks, the Rockefeller University envelope containing a blood-test report on a rather ordinary 64-year-old male has lain in a desk unopened. The delay stems from the extraordinary nature of the test.
If some scientists are correct, the test may be the forerunner of what could be called the Ides of March tests, a panel of blood tests that might predict, as the onlooker foretold for Julius Caesar, when one might die -- but not how.
The blood test done at Rockefeller identifies a protein produced by a gene known as apolipoprotein E, or simply apo E. Scientists thought for years that the protein's only function was to help shuttle cholesterol around the body. The only disease linked to apo E was a rare type of artery-clogging atherosclerosis.
But excited researchers say that apo E is rapidly emerging as the first-found of a set of mysterious genes that roughly determine how long a person will live, provided he or she escapes an "unnatural" death from bacteria and viruses, war, accidents, unhealthy diet, smoking or other environmental happenstance.
Scientists have long speculated that the key to a person's "natural" life span lies in so-called diseases of aging, those that emerge only as the body begins to wear out. But identifying them isn't easy. It has never been clear, for instance, exactly which cases of heart disease result from greater susceptibility as the body gets old and which are largely due to environmental factors.
Now, with many more people living past 80, scientists are seeing the aging diseases in profusion. For the first time, there are enough of the elderly around to compare their genetic makeups and see what differences can explain why some people live a full century and others make it only three-quarters of the way.
"Apo E is one of those genes that we suspect controls life span because it affects people's susceptibility to diseases of aging," says Jan Vigh, a molecular geneticist at Beth Israel Hospital in Boston.
There are three different but normal versions of the apo E gene and its protein, known respectively as E-2, E-3 and E-4. Because everyone has two copies of each gene -- one from each parent -- there are six possible combinations. But 75% to 80% of people are born with at least one E-3 version of the protein, and more than half of people have two E-3's.
What fascinates scientists are people with one or -- more rarely -- two copies of the E-4 and E-2 versions of the gene. Not many folks live to age 100, of course, but people with a copy of E-4 seem least likely to do so, while those with an E-2 are the most likely to last for a century.
Consider, for example, these findings:
- In Finland, about 50% of middle-aged Finns possess an apo E-4 gene. But among Finns who make it to 100, the proportion with an E-4 dwindles to 17%. This disappearance of people with an E-4 gene from the aging population is a "remarkable finding," say the University of Helsinki scientists who did the study.
- Fewer French people have an apo E-4 gene, but the pattern is the same. About 24% of the general adult population of France possesses an E-4, but only 10% of French centenarians do.
- Among both Finns and French, people born with an apo E-2 gene have a four-fold greater likelihood of reaching 100 than those born with an apo E-4, the studies find. In both countries, the percentage of people with an E-2 is about twice as high in the 100-plus age group as in the general population. The same phenomenon has been detected among Canadians and Swedes.
"This is absolutely amazing," says Jan Breslow, head of biochemical genetics at Rockefeller University in New York. "Most of the genes we talk about these days are those that cause disease. But here we have a variant of a normal gene which seems to be a marker for survival."
If apo E is truly a marker for longevity, as the studies hint, then "five or 10 years from now, we may have a panel of genes with which you can make a prediction of life expectancy," Dr. Breslow speculates.
Already, scientists have found hints of another gene, called the ACE gene, in which people born with one version (the so-called D version) seem more likely to reach 100 years of age than those with a second version (called the I version).
The evidence so far indicates that apo E is one of an unknown number of "housekeeping genes," says Allen D. Roses, a neurologist at Duke University in Durham, N.C. This is a kind of general maintenance and handyman gene that keeps cells tidy and running smoothly. In contrast, other genes have specialized functions, such as helping a pancreas cell make insulin.
"Because of the name, we tend to trivialize housekeeping genes," Dr. Roses says. But they are vital to health and even life.
One characteristic of many housekeeping genes is that not everyone has the same version. At some unknown time in the past, genetic mutations occurred that didn't prevent a gene from doing its job but did cripple it slightly. These mutations didn't affect health until long after the individual had fulfilled his or her role in propagating the species, so they were more or less ignored by evolution. Today these slightly crippled versions of housekeeping genes are scattered more or less haphazardly through the human population and are considered normal components of the human genome.
In the case of apo E, Dr. Roses hypothesizes, the different versions vary in their housekeeping finesse, just as human housekeepers do. The E-2 version is the crackerjack housekeeper, while the E-3 version, the most common, might be considered merely competent.
It is E-4 that is the sloppy one. As in human housekeeping, the effects of sloppy cell maintenance don't make a huge difference at first. But as the molecular dust and cobwebs accumulate with the years, E-4's sloppiness apparently begins to tell, and the bearer becomes increasingly susceptible to illness and death.
This theory would help explain two strange findings recently about people who suffer brain injuries. A study by Dr. Roses and his colleagues at Duke noticed that among 44 people who had suffered brain hemorrhages, patients who had a copy of apo E-4 were three times as likely to die of the hemorrhage. And, if they didn't die, they were less likely to make a full recovery.
Brain-injured accident victims show a similar pattern, he notes. Recently, pathologists in Britain looked for signs of Alzheimer's disease in the autopsied brains of 180 people killed in accidents. In examining their published report, Dr. Roses noticed that the percentage of the deceased with the E-4 gene increased with victims' ages.
Both findings, Dr. Roses argues, suggest that people born with an E-4 gene suffer more from poor "housekeeping" than other people and thus are less able to stand the stress of brain injury, whether from an accident or a hemorrhage. This vulnerability increases with age, presumably because of the cumulative effects.
Dr. Roses, however, has a more compelling interest in apo E. Two years ago, he astonished the world of neurology with evidence that apo E -- known until then only for its role in cholesterol transport -- is involved in the major type of Alzheimer's disease.
Of the four million Americans who suffer this brain-destroying malady, the large majority don't develop symptoms until they are well past 60, and many not until they reach their 90s. This late-onset type of Alzheimer's disease is clearly related to aging. (In contrast, early-onset Alzheimer's-between age 30 and 60-results from several relatively rare genetic mutations, three of which have recently been identified.)
In 1991, a team of Duke researchers headed by Dr. Roses and Warren Strittmatter plucked out a gene that they suspected was involved in late-onset Alzheimer's. It turned out to be apo E.
What really shook up the world's neurologists, though, was the Duke team's finding that people born with two copies of the E-4 version of apo E developed Alzheimer's symptoms an average of 20 years earlier in life than those born with an E-2 version.
Specifically, the Duke scientists checked the apo E of people with Alzheimer's disease and their close relatives. They found that among those born with two E-4 copies, the first Alzheimer's cases developed in patients in their early 60s; most had gotten it by age 80. But among those with an E-2, less than half of family members had developed Alzheimer's by age 90.
Possessing an E-2 or E-3 version of apo certainly isn't a guarantee of avoiding Alzheimer's. Indeed, Dr. Roses believes that all people are destined to come down with it eventually, if they live long enough. But people with an E-2 or E-3 are likely to get the disease later in life than those with an E-4 version of the gene.
Death from coronary heart disease also seems to correlate with apo E. Since 1984, researchers in Helsinki, working with University of Michigan geneticists, have been monitoring the fates of 666 elderly men whose apo E type was known. Recently they reported that in the first five years of the study, 199 men died, 70 of them from coronary heart disease. The surprise was that although men with a copy of the apo E-4 gene made up less than 16% of the group, they accounted for 26% of the heart-disease deaths.
Near Boston, researchers with the long-running Framingham Heart Study are finding that middle-aged women with an E-4 have almost twice the likelihood of developing coronary heart disease as women with other versions of the gene, while middle-aged men with E-4 run a 50% higher risk than other men. (People with an E-4 also tend to have higher levels of the "bad," LDL type of cholesterol.)
Among men under 40 who have to undergo surgery for clogged heart arteries, the E-4/E-4 combination is 16 times more common than in similar-aged men who don't need the operation.
And there are hints that diabetics who have an E-4 gene are more likely to get heart disease than other diabetics.
"Thus, E-4 appears as a risk factor for both heart disease and Alzheimer's disease, two major causes of mortality and morbidity at advanced ages," Francois Schachter and his colleagues at the Center for the Study of Human Polymorphisms, a genetic-research center in Paris, conclude in a report.
What can be done with the knowledge? One use may be imminent: in diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease. Right now, only two of every three elderly people with signs of dementia actually have Alzheimer's. It is extremely hard to tell who is who. But if a patient has two copies of apo E-4, the odds that the dementia is due to Alzheimer's jumps to 94% from 66%, the Duke scientists say. In case of the E-2/E-3 combination, the odds that it's Alzheimer's fall to 33% from 66%.
If you could choose your parents, that E-2/E-3 combination is the one you might arrange to inherit. A 75-year-old who has one E-2 and one E-3 gene and no sign of Alzheimer's has an 80% chance of remaining free of it. But a 75-year-old with the E-4/E-4 combination has only a 20% chance of remaining Alzheimer's-free. The septuagenarian with the E-3/E-2 combo also is less likely to get heart disease.
But one can have too much of a good thing. When Dr. Breslow and a Rockefeller colleague, Vassilis I. Zannis, first discovered 17 years ago that there were three versions of apo E, they found that most people afflicted with a rare type of artery-clogging atherosclerosis had two copies of apo E-2.
So, should I open the envelope from Rockefeller, where my apo E status was determined by Dr. Breslow's laboratory as part of a research project?
"Don't bother," says Dr. Roses of Duke. "At 64, you've got a lot more to worry about than Alzheimer's disease," he says, with questionable reassurance. "Even if you had E-3/E-4, you could still live to 100 and not get Alzheimer's disease."
He pauses, then asks: "How old were your parents when they died?" My mother died at 76 of a stroke and my father at 88 of emphysema from cigarette smoking. "By the time you get Alzheimer's disease, we'll have a drug to prevent it," Dr. Roses promises.
He is working with a major drug maker to find out why apo E-2 seems to be protective. "The hope is that we can make a drug that does what apo E-2 does," he says.
And so, the envelope lies in the desk drawer, unopened.

Call 1:
So I call Linksys/Belkin (well armed with how the experience might go after reading the reviews) to resolve the issue. I go through the motions of getting my contact info, explaining the problem and responding to their question path they read directly off a procedure list in front of them. Fine, maybe it will help. Verified that all the latest settings were enabled and that my router was properly configured, but they wanted me to re-clone the MAC address from a hard wire connection. Reboot and im back on my way after an entire hour on the phone.
Call 2:
Day 2, called again b/c of same issue, go through all of the same BS before despite having a case ID. I get a Sr. Technician finally who wanted to reset the router to factory and then re-establish settings. So night 2 after 1.5 hours of the same playbook of questions, the router is rebooted and works, for an hour before dropping both 2.4 and 5 GHz networks. Went to bed and decided to deal with the one last time the next evening.
Call 3:
Tried to reboot router first, that wouldn't work - no wireless internet could be achieved whatsoever despite it broadcasting the network name/signal.Read more ›
I'm an IT professional who purchased this router for my own home. I've only used Linksys routers for myself and didn't need to replace the Linksys EA3500 I had in service, but I wanted to try out the new AC technology and had faith in Linksys so I got this EA6900 in January. I wanted to get it at launch but figured I'd allot time for any bugs to be worked out. My unit shipped with firmware Ver.1.1.42 (Build 156465) which I had no problems with. By default, Auto Update is set in the configuration and it updated itself to Ver.1.1.42 (Build 158863) after a few weeks. This is when problems began.
After 6/7 days, wifi devices will start losing connection. Soon thereafter, all wifi devices are disconnected and the router is inaccessble even via wired connections. Power cycle the router and this resolves the issues for another 6/7 days. The issue has been reported to Linksys support by myself and many others. There are posts on the Linksys customer forum regarding the exact same situation. Customer Support will instruct you to make arbitrary configuration changes on the router which I'm sure they are scripted to do. These changes won't fix anything.
Linksys/Belkin, if you're listening, you're doing a horrible job of customer service on this. You have many users who purchased a flagship AC router and it doesn't work. I was drooling waiting for the WRT1900 to come out, but I see it has just as many issues. And if you are actually monitoring customer reviews, please contact me. Replace my router.
I could not be more disappointed. While the features all sound great on paper, they DO NOT work well in reality. I didn't experience trouble during start-up like many of the other reviewers. My troubles came shortly thereafter, and the unit eventually overheated.
The minor issues: the range is shorter than comparable routers. There was considerable speed loss (75% or so) even when in good range. There was about a 50% speed loss with items that were directly plugged in. For those of us who pay a lot extra to get higher speeds (100gig), this was a problem. Perhaps this won't effect those with slower connection speeds as much.
WORST issue: after a couple of weeks, speed was reduced dramatically. I investigated, and discovered a terrible burning smell. Like others, I experienced an over-heated unit. This should not have been caused either by our usage or item placement, and is due to a product not ready for prime-time.
APPLE AirPort: I returned this product and purchased an AirPort Extreme. I could not be happier. It has less features and customability, but simply works easily and well. The range is better, and speed much better (very little loss when connected via ethernet or wireless). I kicked myself for not having tried Apple networking products prior to now, and have already seamlessly added a couple of AirPort Expresses as Access Points to expand the network.Read more ›

First impression on unpacking the Q702 test unit was the solid feel and clean, minimalist styling.
Anthony Grifoni
For work use, Microsoft Word and Excel programs pre-installed on the device are adequate for preparing short documents.
Steph Mundell
The Fujitsu LifeBook UH574 allowed for great mobility without being obnoxiously heavy or clunky. Its twelve hours of battery life did not disappoint.
Andrew Mitsi
The screen was particularly good. It is bright and visible from most angles, however heat is an issue, particularly around the Windows button on the front, and on the back where the battery housing is located.
Simon Harriott
My first impression after unboxing the Q702 is that it is a nice looking unit. Styling is somewhat minimalist but very effective. The tablet part, once detached, has a nice weight, and no buttons or switches are located in awkward or intrusive positions.

I just released a new episode of the podcast yesterday, check it out.
Listen by clicking here
It's crazy how fast time has flown by. To think I've been in my Tiny House for just shy of two years! I thought it would be a good time to give an update from the home front. I've now been through two summers and two winters off the grid with my solar panels.
I think the biggest change to report is that I've really stopped thinking about my tiny house as tiny…it's now just my house. When I first moved in I had worries that it might be too small, not because it felt small, but because I worried that I might grow to feel that way one day. Two years in, and there are times it almost feels big.
With the move to the tiny house I made some pretty big lifestyle shifts. First off I went fully off grid for my power, which has been relatively smooth. My system is large enough that I really don't think about it most days. Sometimes I almost forget that I'm on solar, particularly in the spring and summer.
Winters are the only time I really have to think about things, particularly when it's very overcast for days. For this I have my generator that I can run for two hours and the batteries are fully recharged. The combination of less solar exposure in the winter with the higher power usage of heat can be tricky, but last winter I used a total of 20 gallons of gas in my generator, costing me about $45 for heat over an entire winter.
The real challenge is that I don't use my generator enough. I use it just often enough that it doesn't make sense to drain the fluids, but sometimes things start to gum up a bit. I know my Honda EU2000i is showing signs of infrequent use and the carburetor needs to be overhauled, but I'm nervous to pull it apart because it's a fancy two stage (not sure if that's the correct term) and has a lot more pieces to it; as if I really know enough to do a basic carburetor.
In the kitchen I've also made some big shifts since moving to my tiny house. I decided not to put in a microwave, freezer, dishwasher or oven. For some, this would be no big deal, while others couldn't imagine not having these things. For me it came down to a few things: generally, convenience foods are less healthy for you and primarily come frozen and/or rely on microwave cooking. I like to cook, but I don't really like baking, so no oven. Finally, I didn't want to give up the space for a dishwasher and I couldn't care less about having one.
I think the only things I really miss are easy baked potatoes in the microwave and being able to freeze meats. Freezing meats wouldn't be an issue if I wasn't a single person household, but most things at the store are packaged for families. Single person portions options at the grocery store are woefully lacking and I wish there were better options.
Laundry facilities have been tricky, since I don't have a washer and dryer in my tiny house. In reality, it's the drying that's the hard part, because I don't mind hand washing my clothes. I don't have time or space to air dry things. In our humid summers, clothes won't dry very quickly. In the winter it rains too much. I've decided to actually double my wardrobe from about 8ish days of clothes to 16 days. Locally there are now two companies that will come to me, take my clothes and then wash/dry/fold them for very affordable rates. Two weeks of clothing means I can have one weeks' worth at home and another out being washed.
The last and final trouble spot I'm having is I really want a woodshop. It would be great to have a space where I can set up my tools and just leave them set up. Right now when I want to work on a project, I have to drag my tools out of my cargo trailer and then put them all back in. I really want to get into some woodworking projects that take some time, things that I may only work on a few hours here and there, but take a few weeks to complete. I want a big work table to spread out on, to do more complex glue-ups, and have a place for things to dry. I don't really know what I'm going to do for this. I'd like to avoid paying rent somewhere and I don't own the land, so building a shop isn't in the cards.
Another lifestyle change is that I decided against installing Internet at my tiny house. I now own a coworking space, so I have a great office space to do my thing, but I really have to be careful that I allow myself to unplug. I love work. The fact that I get to do what I do for a living is incredible. And therein lies the problem – when you love to work, you have to make sure that you also make time to live life. Not having Internet at my house means I really have time to detach from work, and have time to reflect, be quiet, and enjoy my solitude.
I also don't have cable TV, but download the shows I want to watch and then only watch what I really enjoy; no more idle channel surfing. I feel like this is the perfect balance for me.
It's Thanksgiving once again, and we wanted to wish a happy holiday from us here at The Tiny Life to those who celebrate. How can you celebrate the tiny way?
"When you realize there is nothing lacking, the whole world belongs to you." -Lao Tzu
It's a funny thing. You work for a long time to make it to living in a tiny house and then, one day, you do. The big question that I had and many of you will have is…now what? While that will be different for each of you, there will be some things that will most definitely happen to you.
1. You will forever be introduced as the guy/girl who "lives in a tiny house" in every social situation
2. Half of people will tell you that they could never live in such a small space
3. The other half will tell you that they totally could live in a tiny house, but you can tell they never really would
4. You'll begin to ask bigger questions of yourself, your life and its meaning
5. You'll become way more laid back and find yourself just enjoying the here and now
6. You'll own a nail gun and aren't afraid to use it
7. Everyone will compare your house to their bathroom or closet and all you can think is, "I get it, it's small"
8. You'll go to the grocery store or farmers market a lot. Tiny fridges only hold so much
9. People will email you telling you what's wrong with your house and how you should fix it, without you asking
10. You'll find dinner parties seem way more intimate and interesting in such a small space
11. You'll notice that conversations with other tiny house people seem deeper, richer and more valuable
12. People will point blank ask you about how you poop or other intimate details
13. Your bank account will grow and it feels good!
14. After taking on building a tiny house, other things just seem easier
15. Trying new things won't be as scary
16. You'll still feel like you have too much stuff
17. You might just end up leaving your job to start your own thing
18. Living in a tiny house will feel normal and you might start to feel like your house seems big
19. There will be days you don't like living tiny and that's okay
20. Many days you'll be grateful
Your Turn!
This past weekend I had the fortune of watching my sister get married it was an amazing weekend, but the week leading up to it started off pretty tough.
I had been working for weeks to get ready for the Tiny House Conference because once I saw my sister walk down that aisle, I was off to Portland. It meant that I had to have almost everything in order before then. I was feeling good, a little stressed, but good. I had nailed my to do list and was even doing some bonus things when I walked to my car…
The window had been smashed in and quite a few things had been stolen. I had hidden my backpack under the seat, but apparently the thief still spotted it. In that bag was $800 of really important things for the conference, my check book, but thank goodness, not my laptop.
I was angry. I was upset. I didn't have time to deal with this right now. What I had been working so hard for during the past year felt threatened. Not that the Conference was in jeopardy, but the bag stolen symbolized one thing to me: my tools to write, to podcast, to build the movement. I felt like these tools and what I do were cheapened; what cost me $800 of hard earned dollars to do what I loved, was being hocked at a near by thrift store for a few bucks.
This was compounded by the fact that since I was leaving so soon, I might not be able to get the things I needed before I left and once I left, I didn't know exactly where to have things shipped. Needless to say, emotionally I was in a bad place. A darker place than I've been in for a long time.
This angered me even more, because in the end it wasn't just money, it wasn't just the tools for what I love doing, it was the worry, the fear, that I would carry that anger into the weekend where I would not be able to fully appreciate and be fully present in the biggest day in the life of someone who I care about. I felt like that was what was robbed from me.
It was then and there that I resolved myself to not let that person who smashed that window take this amazing moment in time from me: seeing my little sister walk down the aisle.
I had no idea how I was going to do it, but I knew I had to figure it out.
I took some time, of which I really didn't have to take, to think about this. How do I deal with this anger? How do I deal with this fear? How do I deal with having to spend $800 plus few hundred for the car to be fixed?
I remembered a person from my past who once shared the notion of Paradoxical Gratitude, the idea that when something bad happens to you, you look at the positives of what surrounds it. An example would be: if a loved one dies, you focus on the fact that you have living friends and family that are there to support you in your time of need.
I liked the premise of this and it stuck with me over the years, a tool in my tool box to help me be grateful for what I did have. It was time to use that tool.
I thought to myself:
These were the thing I repeated to myself over the following days. I had to make a concerted effort to push myself out of that darkness and into a place where I focused on gratitude. It was hard. It is easy to fall into a place of anger when we feel like we have been wronged, but I knew the stakes were too high.
Then came the day of the wedding.
My sister and I are pretty different people: She loves clothes and shopping, I buy multiples of the same shirt and hate every minute of it. I went to a liberal arts school that shunned greek life and had no real sport teams; she went to a bigger school and joined a sorority where she went to all the games with her sorority "sisters". Despite all our differences, we get along well and I'm proud to call her my sister. She would correct me and say "your favorite sister" a running joke because I only have one. So I was very excited for her because I knew how important this day was for her and thus, it was important to me.
I was standing outside, looking down at grounds where the wedding would happen and was mindfully saying what I was grateful for to myself. The wedding was about to start and then something clicked in me. The focus on gratitude had paid off. I was standing with my brothers, my father, the groom and the weather couldn't have been more perfect; it was a great day!
The wedding kicked off and I saw my little sister, my favorite sister, get married. She struggled to hold back the tears as she said "to have and to hold from this day forward, for better or for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health, to love and to cherish; from this day forward" and I wasn't much better.
The night went quickly after that, sitting for dinner, being rushed back out for more photos, going back in for the first dance, and then getting to see so many family and friends. My face hurt from smiling when my head hit the pillow at 3am. A good day…. no, a great day.
So I wanted to share this story to encourage you to live in the moment, to foster gratitude in your life, to making conscious decisions in your life to deal with the anger, the fear, the doubt, the negativity and go to that place of happiness.
– Ryan

Five reasons why the presidential election is already over
Storified by Digital First Media · Thu, Nov 01 2012 06:12:20
There are still a few days left before the presidential election on Nov. 6. But that hasn't stopped pundits and political operatives from saying it's already over. Here's a look at some of the arguments they're making.
The statistical models show Obama ahead in swing states.
The argument:
Forget the national polls. What matters is which candidate is ahead in the swing states. New York Times' blogger Nate Silver's survey of state polling
shows Obama winning
299 Electoral College votes; Votamatic's
org/can-we-trust-the-polls/" class="">Drew Linzer projects 332; The New Republic's Nate Cohn
argues Obama's ahead
; as does the Princeton Election Consortium's Sam Wang. Real Clear Politics' map with no tossups
shows Obama at 281
But wait...
The statistical models are only as good as the polls, which may not be
counting shifts in the public mood
or cell phone users.
Polls don't matter
because it's the fundamentals, such as the economy, that decide elections. Silver
hedges his predictions
a lot. Silver is an
Sample headlines:
"This election is already over -- Obama has won."
"U.Va. analysis: Obama has already won."
"Has Obama already won the election?"
The economic fundamentals favor Obama (or Romney).
The argument:
Voters care about the economy, and
objective indicators show that it's improving
, albeit slowly.
The housing market
is doing better. Even Wall Street analysts say the numbers are improving enough to say that Obama's re-election is a
"base case scenario."
And the unemployment rate is
lower than the national average
in the key swing state of Ohio.
But wait...
None of those economic indicators are improving quickly enough. They only show a narrow Obama advantage which could fall apart because of lagging enthusiasm, campaign mistakes or low turnout.
Sample headlines:
"CITI: Obama is going to win re-election."
"30 days out: Fundamentals still favor Obama."
"Pollsters: Modern history shows Obama can't win in 2012."
"Rand Paul: 'I think the election is over."
Romney is expanding the map.
The argument:
Romney is so confident he's moving onto Obama's turf, airing ads in
, while a pro-Romney super PAC is expanding into
Minnesota and New Mexico
. And Obama's nervous because he's also running ads in Pennsylvania and
sending valuable surrogate Bill Clinton
into Minnesota. Romney's
expanding the map
But wait...
It could all be a head fake to drive the media narrative. He's
worried he can't win Ohio
so he's looking for a back-up plan. He has to
spend the money somewhere
because he can only air so many ads in the swing states.
Obama's ground game may be overrated.
Sample headline:
"Mitt Romney set to win, maybe by a mile."
"Here comes the landslide."
Obama has a better ground game.
The argument:
Democrats have
better microtargeting programs
to find persuadable voters. Obama is
using early voting
in states like Iowa to build a big lead. Obama has
131 field offices in Ohio
, while Romney only has 40. He
never stopped building
on the 2008 campaign, which was the largest grassroots organization in American political history.
But wait...
Republicans have caught up since four years ago. They are
doing better
with early and absentee voting. Hurricane Sandy
will make it harder
for Democrats to get out the vote in some places. The "ground game" can't
overcome the enthusiasm gap
Sample headlines:
"Obama has already won."
"Four reasons why Romney has already won."
Republicans always win on Nov. 6.
The argument:
"Since election day was standardized in 1845 there have been six presidential elections held on November 6th and
Republicans have won all six
.That means next Tuesday, the 7th Presidential election held on this date, willeither break or uphold a streak that began in 1860 with the election of AbrahamLincoln."
But wait...
Yeah, and until 1984,
no left-handed president had been re-elected
. These kinds of precedents are silly and meaningless.
Sample headline:
"Republicans have won every November 6th presidential election since 1860."
The bottom line...
Nobody knows anything.

French authorities defend ban on aid 'Convoy to Calais'
The French authorities in Calais have defended their decision to prevent an aid convoy of about 200 vehicles leaving Dover on its way to enter France.
The Pas-de-Calais authorities said they had issued the ban for various reasons including the potential for the convoy to "generate violent episodes"; and a lack of available police officers because of the current European football championships.
They also said the numbers of vehicles involved could "facilitate the intrusion of migrants".
"In these circumstances, the Prefect of Pas-de-Calais considered only the prohibition of any event is likely to effectively prevent public disorders that may occur.
"Moreover, any convoy on roads and highways, from Great Britain to Calais to slow or block the flow and constituting a public event, is prohibited."
Kent Police: French decision to block 'Convoy to Calais' aid groups at Dover
The Kent Police force has responded to complaints about an aid convoy being prevented from leaving the Port of Dover on its way to Calais in France.
The convoy of more than 200 vehicles included teams from groups such as the Stop the War Coalition and the People's Assembly. They were carrying provisions and supplies for people living at the so-called 'jungle' refugee camp near Calais.
Kent Police assisted the Port of Dover Police and French authorities after a convoy containing approximately 200 vehicles were denied entry to France on Saturday 18 June.
The decision to refuse entry was made by the French authorities and no agency within the United Kingdom has any grounds to challenge this decision. The refusal of entry to France is a matter for the French authorities.
Upon being refused entry to France, a demonstration took place at the Port. This started at approximately 1.50pm, which resulted in a brief closure of the border controls.
Kent Police worked with partner agencies to ensure disruption was kept to a minimum and within approximately one hour the port resumed business as usual.
'Convoy to Calais' refugee aid trip stopped at Dover
An aid convoy of around 250 vehicles has been held at the Port of Dover after French authorities refused them entry to France.
The Convoy to Calais is a coalition of various charities and groups who had planned to travel via ferry to deliver aid to the so-called 'jungle' refugee camp at Calais in France.

French minister: Calais migrant camp would come to Kent
A senior French minister triggered a furious political row today by saying the Calais migrant camp will come to Kent if Britain votes to leave the European Union.
Economy minister Emmanuel Macron told the Financial Times that leaving would end the agreement that allows the UK to enforce border controls - and keep unwanted migrants on the French side of the Channel.
It's the first time a French government figure has made such a threat. But it's being branded "scaremongering' by MPs campaigning for the UK to remain in the EU. More from our political correspondent Phil Hornby.

The Last Word, March 2016
The economy... security... trade... immigration? What will decide how you vote in the big EU referendum debate this June? Today, another flashpoint: Calais, with the Remain campaign highlighting the French Government's claim that the so-called jungle could move to Kent if we vote Out.
Anneliese Dodds MEP, the Labour euro-MP for south east England and Conor Burns, the Conservative MP for Bournemouth West argue the case for and against. And we meet Arthur, a 102-year-old voter who promises to that on June 23 he will "crawl" to the voting booth, if he has to.

Calls for better control of migrants in Calais
A Kent MP has joined calls for the French to use their armed forces to control migrants in Calais.
And Folkestone's Damian Collins says Britain should be prepared to help if the French can't cope.
It comes after a group of migrants trying to get to Britain broke through security at the Port of Calais and got on board a cross channel ferry.
Phil Hornby reports.
Port of Calais closed due to migrant invasion
The Port of Calais has been temporarily closed due to a migrant invasion, as soon as they are cleared the Port will re-open.

Species on the Move International Conference
Hotel Grand Chancellor, Hobart, Tasmania, Australia
9 – 12 February 2016
The global redistribution of our planets' species is widely recognised as a fingerprint of climate change, however, the mechanisms that underpin such range shifts are poorly understood. Additionally, the pervasiveness of range shifts, from poles to the equator, and depths of oceans to tops of mountains, provides us with unique opportunity to advance our theory of biogeography, evolutionary ecology and macroecology.
Our move into the 'anthropocene' allows unprecedented opportunity to understand the mechanisms that drive species distributions across ecosystems and address the fundamental tenet of ecology: what lives where and why? However, such dramatic changes also pose significant challenges for sustainable management of our natural resources.
We see this conference targeting scientists and natural resource managers working in the disciplines of global change, biogeography and evolution, and relevant in contexts of natural resource management, biodiversity management and conservation, and theoretical ecology.
Species responses to climate change is a rapidly evolving research field, however, much of our progress is being made in independent research areas: e.g. understanding the process vs responding to the implications, terrestrial vs marine ecosystems, global meta-analyses vs in depth species-specific approaches. This interdisciplinary conference would develop connections between these parallel streams, and across temporal and spatial scales.
If you or your organisation/society would like to help shape this exciting conference, please contact Dr Gretta Pecl (email@example.com) or Professor Stephen Williams (firstname.lastname@example.com) for more information.
Associate Professor Gretta Pecl & Professor Stephen Williams

We like Jaguar's classic leaper emblem, we really do. But we also realize that the iconic cat needs to pounce on the right target, which doesn't include the hood of the new XF. How about on a motorcycle? Or, more appropriately, how about an entire motorcycle? One enterprising Jaguar fan has fabricated a two-wheeler that the Indian British marque won't be making itself, though the result is pretty impressive if awfully impractical. The engine is either from a Sporty or an air-cooled Buell, though

Admirable Crichton
Adapted by

When Lord Loam and his family are shipwrecked on a
deserted island, English class divisions are turned
upside down! Crichton, the butler, is the only one
with any practical knowledge, and it doesnt take
long before he becomes the island's leader and is
referred to as The Gov. On the other hand, Lord
Loam and his family assume the roles of jolly
laborers. But when the castaways are finally
rescued, will the island's class divisions be
maintained or will Crichton assume his position as
butler on that other island

smart, and hilarious, the laughs never end in this
side-splitting comedy!
New Farce
The Pie Piper of Hambaloney
Murray J. Rivette
FARCE. The
City of Hambaloney has lots and lots of rats. But
because the city council voted to give themselves
raises last year, the city coffers are empty.
Desperate to rid the city of rats, a city council
member contacts a weird flute-playing guy, the Pie
Piper, who is willing to drive the rats away with
his horrendous flute music if he can be paid with pies.
But when all the town bakers leave for a pie
convention and there are no pies anywhere, the Pie
Piper lures all the children away. The only problem
is that the citizens of Hambaloney arent sure if
they want their kids back!

Thanks to its new rap as a public health hazard, Chipotle is about to hit a bitter milestone — its first quarterly sales loss as a public company. Mea culpas with Matt Lauer, punny ads, and the obligatory ratcheting up of safety protocols haven't turned fortunes around, which leaves the chain basically one option to get people back in its restaurants: More free burritos. It tried that once before, on February 8, when it closed every location nationwide for that big employee food-safety confab. About 5.3 million "raincheck" vouchers were claimed at the time, but the chain thinks maybe it didn't go far enough. So it's started mailing out coupons to people. Somewhere between 6 million and 10 million of these have already been sent out, the AP reports, and Chipotle warns it's just going to keep sending 'em out until the number reaches 21 million, one for almost every dozen Americans. They entitle the holder to a free entrée and all expire around May 15.
Chipotle execs argue what's killing them is the optics of empty stores. They say it's important to make the 2,000 restaurants "look like Chipotle again," instead of like burrito ghost towns. Yesterday, chief financial officer Jack Hartung said that this emptiness has gotten "kind of eerie," and that they've been hearing this for a while from customers who'll walk by a restaurant and remark (according to him): "God, that was always busy, and now there's no line whatsoever."
Once those 21 million coupons are used up or expire, Chipotle says it might shift to buy-one, get-one deals, or possibly target regions of the country where sales are particularly lagging. Regardless, it won't be cheap. In the regulatory filing it released earlier this week, it said one reason it's poised to post a record-bad quarter is because of all the "increased marketing and promotions," not just awful sales.

Still trying to find a host with the needed PHP & mySQL version we need to run the forums or a cheap enough one that we can have a VPS server. That way we handle all the settings and php & mySQL and all that. The host just runs the hardware side of things. I got an idea for a few more sections that will be added in some time this month.
Hope you all are doing good and have a safe spring break.....
Site is now around 80% done and the full re-vamp. As for the forums. I'm looking around for a new host that has the mySQL & PHP to the versions we need to run the forums once more. At this time. I do not have a time frame for that section of the site to be back online.
The contract section with the Repair & Custom build request are online. Been tested and all working at 100%. The moble layout and sections are also 100% done. You can access the site on your phone, tablet, or desktop system and you will have a full working layout.
Happy vday every one. Have a good one and remember don't just do something nice for the one you love on vday, do it all year around.
I will have to wait for my host to update mySQL & PHP b4 I can upgrade the forums. So they will stay offline till this can be done. As i will not run old security risk and it takes to much for me to add more security on older version.
Well after thinking about it, i'm not adding the gallery section. All my image work is on deviantart anyway. So you all can check it out their.
The new site is online and working at 60%. Still setting up the new forums and all the rest of the sections of the site.. That should be done with in a few weeks. I real busy at this time and trying to get everything done as fast as I can on my own.
Have a great Feb everyone

I have stayed at this hotel several times and each time in a different area of the property. The main part of the hotel is very nice and love to stay there for some down time alone. The condos near the beach are a great family location and an easy walk to the beach. The food is wonderful and love the outdoor eating areas. The hotel is well maintained and the staff is warm, welcoming and friendly. The weather is beautiful and sunny with clean beaches and bright blue water. It is easy to get to the downtown area. I really enjoy my visits to this location and this island.

"I was looking for God during the last mile, but I didn't see him. I guess he finished ahead of me too."
--- Albert Mabus, last male finisher at the 2001 NVHM
It's one of the cheapest halfs, though one of the more challenging ones, in the tri-state area...the Nittany Valley Half Marathon! At $25--it's a real steal. I've run this one two years in a row now (in fact, it was my very first half marathon) and it's always been a chilly challenge!
Here are the details and information about registration:
The plan is to drive up on Sunday morning from Maryland, as the race starts at 10 am. After the race, plan to join your fellow group members for some fun in State College! If you're looking to stay the night on Sunday after the post-race festivities, members of the group will be staying at the Days Inn State College, which is close the race finish:

The Israeli author Amos Oz has joined six other intellectuals including the French Jewish philosopher Bernard-Henri Levy in calling on the UN Security Council to go further in its reaction to the government crackdowns in Syria.
Fresh evidence has emerged that Syria organised last month's Nakba Day clashes on Israel's border.
Michael Weiss, the spokesman of media monitor Just Journalism, this week said he was forwarded a Syrian state document which details plans to dispatch 20 bus-loads of demonstrators to the border with Israel.
The document, which describes a meeting between Syria's chief of staff and military int
Iran seems to be everywhere nowadays, wherever you look in the Middle East. Reports abound of Iranian submarines collecting intelligence in the Red Sea and warships foraying into the Mediterranean, agents of the Revolutionary Guards advising the Syrians how best to put down the rebellion in border towns, and diplomats from Tehran in secret meetings in Cairo.
Community leaders have condemned the "devious and Machiavellian" 40-year-old married man from Edinburgh who used a blog, with the fake identity of a young Syrian lesbian, to attack Israel.
Tom MacMaster, a master's student at Edinburgh University and member of Students for Justice in Palestine, admitted this week he was the man behind the Gay Girl in Damascus blog, which followed the alleged li
Senior Israeli officers are worried that attempts by Palestinian groups to cross the border with Syria will become a recurring event while the Assad regime fights for its survival.
William Hague has called for Syrian President Bashar Assad to reform or step aside.
The Foreign Secretary said the Syrian leader was losing legitimacy.
In an address to the House of Commons, Mr Hague condemned the Syrian regime, which human rights groups blame for the deaths of 1,200 protesters since anti-government uprisings began in the country three months ago.
Israeli officials have said that the Syrian protesters who approached the border with Israel yesterday leading to gunfire were encouraged to do so by President Bashar Assad.
Danny Ayalon, the Deputy Foreign Minister, wrote on his Facebook page that President Assad was "using Palestinians in Syria as cannon fodder".
The United States has called for an end to "provocative actions" on the border between Syria and Israel.
The comments by a spokesman for the US State Department followed Sunday's deadly clashes. Up to 20 people were killed when Syrian protesters attempted to storm the border with the Golan Heights.
An IDF spokesman said shots were fired only after numerous verbal warnings.
The members of Iran's radical axis in the Middle East are rallying around their ally, Syrian President Bashar al-Assad, in support of his bloody crackdown of the pro-democracy protests that have taken place in Syria over the past two months.
Hizbollah leader Sheikh Hassan Nasrallah called upon the Syrian people to "defend the regime" in a televised speech last Wednesday.
The demonstrations in Syria have created much concern in Iran.
"Our nations and our statesmen must follow events in Syria closely," was the recommendation of the Iran-based Middle East expert, Hassan Hanizadeh.
