Recent reviews
Excellent 4.5 /5 from 10 reviews
Everything offered at the hotel was UNBELIEVABLE!!! There was so much to do all within the hotel confines too (lake, pools, boating, swimming, spas, sauna, massage, yoga, views, walking...). The only possible downsides was slow internet in my room from 1000 thru midnight and the room was quite hot and didn't seem to have Air Condition or turn it on but they quickly brought me a fan to ensure I was as comfy as I could be. Other than those 2 issues, the breakfast was AMAZING with cooked to order bacon and eggs... couldn't get much better and EVERY hotel staff member from bartender, reception to the grounds keeper... was very accommodating, pleasant and friendly. Our entire stay was fantastic and comes with high praise!!!

i hit a ace on hole 2 this morningthank you for being considerate, doing it before the last league.
About what time will this thing end? I'm thinking about coming up for a Royals game (been a long time since they have been in a postseason race) and wonder if I could fit both in that day. Thanks
I am planning on keeping on schedule as much as possible. With foursomes on 18 of 21 holes, play should move fairly smoothly.
8:30 Check-in/Day of Registration
8:55 Players Meeting
9:10 First Round Start
~11:40 Lunch and Ring of Fire
~12:40 Second Round Start
~3:40 Awards and CTP for ACE fund if needed.
Last year, I had folks out a little after 4, but well before 5. With only Rocs and Buzzzes play moves along. You just need to decide which Roc or Buzzz to throw or putt with.
The way I understand it, you can use as many of the one disc as you want.sounds about right: 15-20 rocs = 1 buzzz.
So I'll have a bag full of Rocs. Like 15-20 of them.

Historical Traveler Reviews Hotel Luxembourg Parc Paris
Not a great location but great hotel
We stayed the first week in Feb of 2005. The hotel was small, I think it had only 4 floors. The lobby was tiny with an adequate bar. They also had a wonderful lounge in the back with a computer available. We had to pay 3 Euros or about I guess 4USD to go on at night but during the day we were allowed to use it for free.
We had a room on one of the upper floors, which overlooked the Luxembourg Parc, very nice. The room itself was not large but not tiny, comfortable. We opt for not getting the suite, which are larger rooms because they face the courtyard which I recommend is not the nicest view. Ask for the corner room overlooking the park. So the room was very nicely decorated and clean. The bedding was fine but I must say the mattress was very uncomfortable, too soft for our taste. Nice size marble bathroom with a heating lamp where you could put your towel to warm up before you get out of the shower... nice touch. The decor was adorable, really French country, with wooden beams exposed on the cieling. They have a safe in the room which was nice and the staff is extremely helpful and very nice. The only thing we hated was the limited American channels available except for the BBC, but I'll give them credit for having the Super Bowl on albiet in French.
We didn't eat breakfast there at all, why pay the ridiculous price of 17Euros for bread and butter when you can get a nice crossiant and coffee to go at the Columbus Cafe for 5Euros.
The area around the hotel is nice but honestly we found that it was a little far from the sites to walk everyday. If you don't mind the subway or what they call the metro then by all means stay there, its a great little place but expensive. We paid 230Euro and that was at the time 307USD per night.
Coming from New York City I ride the subway a lot so I didn't want to be on the subway in Paris so this location, because it was far from the sites walking distance wasn't ideal, but if you don't mind doing the metro then this is a great place to stay. Its quiet at night and the staff was great and I just loved the tiny lounge which reminded me of being in somebody's home in the country...and they had a fireplace to boot.
Bottom line, if you have the money, don't mind doing the metro then go for it, you won't be dissapointed.
Great Stay at the Luxembourg Parc
I spent six nights at the Luxembourg Parc a few weeks ago and thought it was an excellent choice. The location is great with lots of good restaurants and shops nearby. The room was beautifully decorated & the bathroom was particularly nice - all marble, great shower & tub, magnifing mirror and large soft towels. Our room had blackout curtains which we loved. The lobby which has a nice bar and library with a fireplace are also lovely. We only ate breakfast once but it was very nice with fresh fruit, ham, cheese, yogurts, eggs and a good selection of bread. The staff was so helpful and polite. Miguel made all our dinner reservations and gave us an espresso very early on the morning we were leaving as we didn't have time for breakfast. I can hardly wait to return to the Luxembourg Parc.
Perfect Boutique Hotel
THis was truly a find!! A lovely hotel near wonderful cafe's and great shopping! The staff was as attentive as our previous stay in Paris at the Four Seasons, George V. They were professional, friendly and happily made our dinner reservations and gave us excellent recommendations on where to eat. We will definately stay here again!!!
Our 6 nights at the Luxembourg Parc were sheer heaven. The room was large and comfortable and the marble bathroom was luxurious. The hotel was very quiet and the staff most helpful, friendly and discreet. Location is terrific, one and half blocks from Boulevard Ste. Germaine, two from Rue de Rennes and three from Boulevard St. Michel. Luxembourg Palace is right across the street. A fabulously interesting neighbourhood. At 230 Euros a night ($420 Can) it is more than we normally like to pay for a hotel but it was our 30th anniversary and wanted to go up-scale. And it was more than worth it. We would glady stay here again.
Harmonious stay
Lovely roon with ceiling wooden beams, unsurpassable soft pillows, and gorgeous marble bath room. Never saw another guest on my floor even though the hotel was full. The staff was very friendly. The location, across from Luxembourg Park, was ideal, particularily if you have small children, due to the many activities offered in the park for them. The hotel is also close to the hub of the Latin quarter, ane near the RER train to Charles de Gaulle. I will definitely go back.
Great hotel, good location in St. Germain. The rooms that face the courtyard are very roomy with double windows that open. Nice marble bathrooms. Staff is very helpful. Enjoyed it very much.
Pleasent week at the Luxembourg Parc
Well kept Parisian hotel close to Luxembourg parc. Absolute best part of Paris when on holiday. Staff professional and friendly. Rooms are small, being a "typical" Parisian hotel builiding-wise. Breakfast contains everything you need, with high quality compononts, served in charming area. A bit on the pricy side, though.All in all, I heartily recommend the hotel. I am often in Paris, and this hotel is among those I look forward to stay in.
This place is terrific. Beautifully decorated rooms and bathrooms. Very comfortable bar area in lobby with adjacent library with fireplace.
Staff couldn't be better. Can't wait to return.
Great Experience!
Very accommodating hotel in a quiet area near St. Sulpice. Very professional staff with an omni-present General Manager. Rooms, bar, library all add to the complete experience. The Library has a working fireplace and with Winter close, adds great ambiance.The rooms are very comfy with large marble bathrooms with great showers. This is a great alternative for people wanting large rooms in the Left Bank without the noise factor. You will not be disappointed with this gem across from Luxembourg Gardens.
Good paris location
this hotel is a well runhotel in a nice area of paris. the rooms are nicely furnished. the staff is pleasant and helpful. there is no restaurant altho breakfast is available for 17 euro.

The second-generation Nexus 7 has one of the highest pixel density displays for a tablet to date. Apple could opt for the same display technology in the iPad Mini Retina.
The technology giant can't catch a break: for the most-leaked iPhone to date, Apple today delivered the nail in the leaky coffin.
Apple is constantly providing developers with test builds of the next OS update so they can ensure compatibility with their programs, drivers, and system services. When an update is nearing its public release date, Apple may increase the number of developer releases and some may be tagged with "no known problems" or similar phrasing. When this happens we may see the update released in the next few weeks if not in a few days, but before you decide to install it be sure you have your system prepared and have considered options for installing.
Installing Windows 7 over Vista gives numerous advantages, even if only for OS stability; however, to date Apple has not officially supported.

Utah Utes men's basketball: Runnin' Utes drop overtime thriller to ASU
Michael Chow, The Arizona Republic
TEMPE, Ariz.— Jason Washburn's demeanor said it all.
Despite scoring 19 points, grabbing 18 rebounds and blocking four shots, the senior found no solace in those statistics after Utah's 55-54 overtime loss at Arizona State. He spoke in hushed tones after the setback, struggling to keep his emotions in check.
"We've been in that situation so many times. There were so many times last year where we were up in games and lost," Washburn said. "This one hurts me. I don't know it if hurts more. A loss hurts. Losing hurts, especially when you know and feel you should have won."
The Utes had their chances — quite a few, as a matter of fact. They had a 49-46 lead late in regulation, but gave up a 3-pointer on a second-chance opportunity with just over one minute left to play — forcing overtime. At the end of game, Utah took four shots in the final 12 seconds in a feverous attempt to regain the lead.
All of them missed the mark, however, denying the Utes an opportunity to win a conference game on the road for the first time since February 2011.
"It's a fine line," acknowledged Utah coach Larry Krystkowiak, who noted that among a number of things that could have made the difference would have been just one more basket or a pair of free throws.
Krystkowiak, though, said he was proud of his guys for continuing to play hard on defense when shots weren't falling consistently.
"I'm not frustrated at all," Krystkowiak explained. "I'm going to be quickly (ticked) about it, you know, and it's on to the next thing. We know what we needed to do to win the game. We'll clean that up."
Utah shot just 34.5 percent from the field and gave up 15 second-chance points in falling to 8-5 overall and 0-1 in Pac-12 play. The Utes face third-ranked Arizona Saturday in Tucson.
"We've got to get back in the saddle and get ready to do it again. That's the good thing about this time of the season is you can get that taste out of your mouth," Krystkowiak said. "Unfortunately we're playing Arizona and I'm not sure that's the easiest task ahead. But we've got a couple of days to prepare."
Although disappointed with Wednesday's outcome, Washburn noted that the Utes will go back, watch the film and figure things out.
"Obviously we made some mistakes offensively," he said. "Otherwise I'd be sitting here saying something different right now."
Washburn's performance drew praise from Krystkowiak. He said the center put the team on his shoulders and carried them at times.
"It was tremendous," Krsytkowiak said. "He was locked in from the beginning."
ASU led 25-24 at halftime in a game featuring eight ties and eight lead changes. Utah's last-ditch bid to make the latter nine fell short when two shots by Washburn and single attempts by Jarred DuBois and Jordan Loveridge failed to go through the hoop as the final seconds ticked off the clock.
"Welcome to conference basketball," said ASU coach Herb Sendek. "I thought it was just a very hard-fought college basketball game. Both teams really made it difficult for the other to score — although neither team forced many turnovers."
Carrick Felix led the Sun Devils (12-2, 1-0) with 17 points and 13 rebounds. Jahii Carson added 15.
In the battle of the brothers, ASU's Jordan Bachynski led the way with 14 points and eight rebounds in 31 minutes. Utah's Dallin Bachynski wound up with two points and a rebound in six foul-plagued minutes.

Excellent memory, I got all of "The Elements" song by Tom Lehrer locked away in my noodle. Also, look at this face, how can you not love this face?
Rainbow Dash. A lot of bronies don't like her cocky attitude (which usually I hate) but whenever her head gets too big, something always knocks her down a peg. And when you're that awesome, how can you not develop an ego?
Hi! My name's Jim and love me some MLP! I like to act and am working on a BA in goofballery. Tons of ideas but little talent in visual, musical, or literature art leave my bronydom restless, but I've got a bunch of half-finished projects.

Nice app
cooking with this app is really easy with the step by step.
Very nice recipe images and the look of the app in general.
My favourite section: Children (love the banana and peanut butter muffins!!!!)
ingredients missing
It would be a great app but ingredients are missing from lists. In the merigue recipe it tells u to add caster sugar but its not on the list this app is a waste of money.
Missing ingredient
In the recipe for Rustic bacon and cheese bread, step three says 'Add the eggs'. However there are no eggs appearing in the recipe list! so although the app looks good, it's a waste of £2.99.

The Minnesota men's tennis team will pick up play after a nine-day hiatus from match play when it takes on Florida Gulf Coast at 4 p.m. Monday in its lone contest on its spring break trip. The match will be the team's last in non-conference action this season as the team takes on Nebraska at home Sunday at noon.
About Minnesota
Minnesota's season has been a streaky one in terms of wins and losses thus far--the Gophers lost their first two matches before winning four-straight, losing three in a row (all by 4-3 scores), and coming up victorious in their last two matches entering its last weekend of play in which it fell to Washington and Boise State. Minnesota is 6-7 overall with a 4-4 ledger against ranked opponents.
About Florida Gulf Coast
Like the Gophers, the Eagles are 6-7 on the year, but they come into Monday's match having won three of their past four matches. They are 1-2 in the Atlantic Sun Conference action. Playing in the comforts of home, FGCU is 4-3. Jordi Vives is the Eagles' top player with a 10-1 record in singles and an 8-3 mark in doubles with teammate Dean Tsamas. In singles, Vives is ranked 93rd in the nation.
Against FGCU
The Gophers and Eagles will play for the first time ever Monday.
Toledo Earns B1G Honor, Rejoins Rankings
Gopher junior Leandro Toledo picked the Big Ten Men's Tennis Athlete of the Week award for the second time in his career in the team's second week of play. The Hamburg, Germany native, who earned his first-career win at No. 1 singles with a triumph of 22nd-ranked Greg Andrews of Notre Dame before claiming a second win at the position the following day against BYU. Minnesota's Toledo, Rok Bonin, and Juan Pablo Ramirez gave the team three award winners in 2013.
Since winning the award, Toledo pushed his win streak to six and is now 10-3 on the year. He climbed back into the national rankings at No. 80 and now sits at No. 84.
Hamburg and Froment Move Up
After an 11-2 record in the fall that put them at No. 47 entering the spring season, doubles partners Jack Hamburg and Mathieu Froment were unable to finish their first match and dropped their second match, but have won their last nine completed matches, including a 6-4 triumph over No. 17 Denis Nguyen and Casey MacMaster of Harvard to move up to No. 16 in the ITA rankings.
After serving as the Gophers' No. 1 doubles team in 2013, Hamburg and Froment entered the spring with an 18-10 overall record together--they are now 27-11.
Match Format Changes
The experimental scoring format using to begin the college tennis season has reverted back to the old system as of Feb. 10 for the women. From this point forward, there will be three doubles matches using eight-game pro-sets and the team winning at least two of the matches gets one team point. If the pro-set is tied 7-7, a seven-point tiebreaker is played. If one team wins two doubles matches, the third match will go unfinished.
Six singles matches are then played and each are worth one team point. The matches are best-of-three sets with tiebreakers played to seven points if the set is tied 6-6. Once a team has reached four team points, it has clinched the team victory. The remaining matches are completed with a 10-point
Gophers Headline Aquatennial
The University of Minnesota had a combination of 17 former and current Gopher student-athletes who competed at the 21st Aquatennial Tennis Classic this past week.
Gophers Compete in US Open Qualifier
Six University of Minnesota tennis student-athletes and head coach Chuck Merzbacher competed in the US Open Sectional Qualifier, this weekend at the Baseline Tennis Center.
Baseline Hosting US Open Sectional Qualifier

Definition of jacquerie
: a peasants' revolt
Did You Know?
The first jacquerie was an insurrection of peasants against the nobility in northeastern France in 1358, so-named from the nobles' habit of referring contemptuously to any peasant as "Jacques," or "Jacques Bonhomme." It took some time - 150 years - for the name of the first jacquerie to become a generalized term for other revolts. The term is also occasionally used to refer to the peasant class, as when Madame Defarge in Dickens' A Tale of Two Cities tells her husband to "consider the faces of all the world that we know, consider the rage and discontent to which the Jacquerie addresses itself with more and more of certainty every hour."
Origin and Etymology of jacquerie
Middle French, from the French peasant revolt in 1358, from jacque peasant — more at jacket

Java updates are necessary but they are so frequent that i am now tired of it. Besides, I need to do simple work on my PC and the requirements for Java are seldom.
Today, I went into the control panel of my system(i.e Windows 7 32-bit) and then clicked the Java tab. The java config window appeared and in that selected update tab and then unchecked the check for updates automatically checkbox. Clicked on apply and then ok. To resure, I opened the Java config window again but the settings were not saved. Still the checkbox was in selected state. Why is this happening ? I am logged-in as administrator only.
Please tell me how to turn off the automatic updates for Java in Win 7?

The information on this page relates to September 2016 entry. For 2017 information, including grade requirements, please check our prospectus.
The Accounting & Finance with Mathematics Degree (N4G1) at Aberystwyth University will provide you with a thorough grounding in the key areas of business finance and accountancy, underpinned by advanced mathematical and statistical techniques. The Accounting & Finance with Mathematics Degree is accredited by a number of UK accounting bodies, and on graduation you will receive exemptions towards professional qualifications. In studying for the Accounting & Finance with Mathematics Degree you will acquire the specialist knowledge and proficiencies that meet the needs of the modern accountancy profession as well as essential transferable skills that are highly sought after by employers. Expand the sections below to discover more...
The Accounting & Finance with Mathematics degree is a major/minor programme, meaning that you will spend two-thirds of your time studying Accounting & Finance with the School of Management and Business, and one-third studying Mathematics in the Department of Mathematics.
Why study Accounting & Finance with Mathematics at Aberystwyth?
Our Accounting and Finance programmes are accredited by the Association of Chartered Certified Accountants (ACCA), the Chartered Institute of Management Accountants (CIMA), the Institute of Chartered Accountants in England and Wales (ICAEW), the Chartered Institute of Public Finance and Accountancy (CIPFA), the Chartered Insurance Institute (CII), and the Institute of Chartered Secretaries and Administrators (ICSA). This means that, on successful completion of your Accounting & Finance with Mathematics degree, you will be able to gain exemption from certain examinations and achieve professional qualifications at an earlier stage.
The School of Management and Business has an excellent reputation for the quality of its courses and for the success of its graduates across a wide variety of careers and contexts.
100% of our 2014 School of Management and Business graduates were in employment or further study 6 months after graduating (DLHE 2014). This reflects our investment in innovative and strategic, student-focused employability initiatives which encompass all our academic institutes and which we firmly believe are likely to improve our employability ratings still further.
The 2015 National Student Satisfaction survey results show significant improvement in many areas of our students' satisfaction. Students on courses in the School of Management and Business have reported high levels of satisfaction with the quality of teaching they received and with the learning resources to which they have access.
As well as being active researchers, our lecturers have a professional accounting background, and in applying their real-world knowledge to theoretical concepts, your learning experience is firmly located in the context of proper professional practice. We also believe strongly in a teaching model which requires active student involvement rather than passive information-gathering, ensuring that you can meet the demands of potential employers on graduation. Our programmes are supported by visiting speakers who also bring their professional experience to the classroom.
The School of Management and Business has arrangements with many partner universities overseas to deliver short academic programmes (2 weeks) to small groups of management and business students (on a self-funding basis), to enable you to experience the impact of the cultural environment when conducting business abroad. We currently have partner universities in India, China, Russia, Japan, the United Arab Emirates and Brazil and our portfolio of countries is rapidly expanding.
Cutting-edge research inspires our mathematics teaching: the Department of Mathematics entered almost 90% of its staff in the latest UK-wide periodic assessment of university research (the 2014 Research Excellence Framework). The results showed that one in eight of our research papers are world leading, and more than 60% are either world leading or internationally excellent. All of our research, and the impact it has outside universities, was judged to be of an international standard. You are therefore guaranteed to be taught by staff who are at the forefront of the subject.
100% of our 2014 Maths graduates were in employment or further study 6 months after graduating. 71% were in professional work or graduate level education, above the UK average for the subject (DLHE 2014). This reflects our investment in innovative and strategic, student-focused employability initiatives which encompass all our academic institutes and which we firmly believe are likely to improve our employability ratings still further.
The 2015 National Student Satisfaction survey results show high levels of satisfaction amongst Mathematics and Statistics students, with 84% reporting satisfaction with the quality of the teaching they received, and 92% satisfaction with learning resources (5 points above the UK average for the subject).
A number of Mathematics modules are available through the medium of Welsh. Further details may be obtained from the Department of Mathematics.
Students at the Aberystwyth University School of Management and Business are taught by lecturers and other teaching staff who are active researchers and expert practitioners in their chosen subject area.
Over 75% of full time members of teaching staff are qualified to PhD level. Most are currently research active, meaning that students benefit from being taught 'new' knowledge in their chosen field of study as well as recognized literature. The School also employs part-time and full time staff devoted purely to teaching. Many part-time staff combine teaching duties with consultancy and business activities, ensuring that students have access not only to up to date research but the latest applied knowledge.
Most lecturers in the Department of Mathematics are qualified to PhD level and are research active. Many have a postgraduate teaching qualification.

In Mathematics you will have a choice of two pathways: the first incorporates real and complex analysis and linear algebra; the second is based around statistics and statistical methods.
In the third year you will further develop your competencies in management accounting and financial accounting, and will additionally focus on corporate finance. You will have a choice of elective modules in Mathematics, enabling you to specialise in particular areas.
How will I be taught?
Core material is delivered through lectures, and reinforced by small-group seminars and tutorials. These will help you to deepen your understanding of the subject matter and develop a range of essential, transferable skills. Group-working and delivering presentations will help you to improve your communication and leadership skills. All modules are backed up by electronic resources to help you study beyond the classroom, and a wealth of printed texts is available in the University library, and the National Library of Wales, which is situated next to the main campus.
You will be assessed by a variety of methods, including examinations, assessed essays, reports, projects and presentations. Coursework will develop your capacity to research, analyse and present data clearly and coherently, while seminars will help you hone your presentation and communication skills.
You will be assigned a personal tutor throughout your degree course, who will help you with any problems or queries, whether these are academic-related or personal issues. You should feel free to contact them at any time for help and advice.
You will also have the opportunity to complete a Personal Development Plan (PDP) at Aberystwyth. This is a structured process of self-appraisal, reflection, and planning, which will enable you to chart your personal, academic and professional development throughout your time at university. By recording your academic performance, and highlighting the skills you already have and those you will need for future employability, the PDP portfolio will equip you with the necessary tools to plan effectively, develop successful approaches to study, and consider your future career options and aspirations.
The Accounting and Finance degree has given me a broad understanding of business and allowed me to build on my knowledge of industry and the economy as a whole. I love studying accounting because it gives me a totally different perspective on the world of business. Accounting is so much more than most people think it is; it's not just people sitting around doing book-keeping. It has allowed me to break down companies and given me a much better understanding of their intricacies as well as their potential. Emma Louise Taberner

Eliza (magazine)
Issue 9
|Summer Bellessa
|Fashion magazine
|Total circulation
|First issue
|June 2007[1]
|United States
|Based in
|Los Angeles, California
Eliza is an American fashion magazine founded in 2007[2] by Summer Bellessa,[3] who was a Ford Model at that time. The publication is headquartered in Los Angeles, California,[4] and began with a circulation (based on its print run) of 10,000 in 2007.[4] The publishing schedule is now irregular and the magazine is only available digitally and by print-on-demand via HP MagCloud.[5] The magazine's name is a reference to Audrey Hepburn's performance as Eliza Doolittle in My Fair Lady.[4][6]
The magazine describes itself as being "for women who want to be stylish, sexy, and engaged in the world while retaining high standards in dress, entertainment, and lifestyle."[7] Founder Summer Bellessa has been described as a leader in the modesty movement.[1]
Some critics have called Eliza's focus on modest clothes and its editorial stance "prudish and old-fashioned."[8]

Do you think the stimulus package is doing enough to help the economy?
Asked at Hy-Vee, 4000 W. Sixth St. on August 1, 2009
"I think that the stimulus package is not doing enough for the economy. It spends a lot of money to build things and on education. I don't see how that creates jobs. The president says it's supposed to create jobs."
"I don't see how it's helping me at all. Last year, when they sent us the checks, I think that was a better stimulus plan."
"I think it's too fast and too much. The idea was good, but they just want it too quickly."
"No, I don't feel that the stimulus is really doing anything to help the average person."

Steve Miller 6 years, 11 months ago
The stimulas is a very short term fix. Last years direct payment to everyone was more of a stimulas . I don't know about anyone else, but i need real money to spend which gives local economys a direct shot i the arm, that's real stimulas. What is the cure is to stop imports a much as possible to stimulate jobs here at home to get people back to work.

ksmama 6 years, 11 months ago
I didn't vote for him and I am proud that I didn't. We need jobs not stimulus money so some company can get a new paint job that creates a short term job not a long term. How about giving money to people who want to start a business or a small company wanting to expand that would create long term jobs.

beatrice 6 years, 11 months ago
If the payments last year were so great, why did the economy tank after the money had been spent?
Yes, I believe the stimulus package is helping the overall economy, even when individuals can't see it directly. The Dow is up from January, job losses have dramatically slowed, and we see consumer confidence rising, if slightly. Without the stimulus package? I can't imagine how a McCain plan of more deregulization of business and banking would have helped. Instead, we have someone in office who is attempting to fix the problems that led us into this mess in the first place.
Sunny Parker 6 years, 11 months ago
Nice answers. Instead of answering the question you lefties always blame the other guy.
Hussein is doing nothing but taking this country into socialism!
beatrice 6 years, 11 months ago
Speaking of nice answers there sunny ... Hussein and socialism? Please.
Libertyone, exactly what was in those 40k pages of regulations under Bush? Sure they weren't just pages that allowed less oversight rather than more? Have you read these regulations? I'll admit that I haven't. I can look at what was said by McCain, however, when he was running and how at the GOP convention they said clearly that business needed government to get out of their way! This was repeating the Reagan mantra for deregulization, which started the ball rolling to get us to the economic situation we are in today.

Facists Neoconservatives still control the former republican party. Which is to say "getting in the way" is their favorite tool. The only thing that changed is Bush and Cheney although still wandering about fear mongering.
The facist neoconservative fears are fairly substantial which is why they spend so much time and money burying the rest of us with their fear mongering. That same facists neoconservative party fears a few things which the majority of americans need to take back and shore up.
Keep in mind a prospering america can overcome fear mongering.
What is the opposing facists neoconservative party afraid of:
That Obama will work with Ralph Nader and put forth a very strong economy.
No more wars
A dramatically improved quality of life for all americans
HR 676 National Health Insurance for All
A dramatically improved quality of life for all americans
New Industry thus new jobs thus new wealth for the USA
A dramatically improved quality of life for all americans
Green Collar Industries which produce jobs that cannot be outsourced
A dramatically improved quality of life for all americans
Being exposed as the party manipulating the lower middle class,middle class and upper middle class to fund increasing wealth to the upper 1%.
*A dramatically improved quality of life for all americans
Losing of tax incentives/tax breaks for the wealthy that actually create tax increases for entire spectrum of the middleclass thus constantly reducing the wealth of the middleclass.
A dramatically improved quality of life for all americans
Clean air, clean water, clean energy and healthy green space scattered throughout america.
A dramatically improved quality of life for all americans will put keep the facists neoconservative party at bay for some time.

The Greenpeace Fonterra AdOctober 7th, 2010 at 1:59 pm by David Farrar
Don't agree with it, but I have to say a pretty damn effective attack ad. I wonder if that is a professional actress – too good to be an amateur I reckon.
Don't agree with it, but I have to say a pretty damn effective attack ad. I wonder if that is a professional actress – too good to be an amateur I reckon.
Yip. She was on Shortland Street. Don't know if she still is *hangs his head with embarassement that he knows this*
[DPF: Was she the one who played Morgan – the Southland nurse?]
Same old scaremongering lies and exaggeration. I detest these cowards who cannot fight for their political views on the basis of facts logic or coherent argument but prefer emotional propaganda such as this. (or indoctrinating school children). They are the very evil they profess to stand against.
I see all that charred wood at the end and all I can think is about charcoal to fire up the BBQ.
Mmm – steaks.
Mmmmm, steak……
Prime Eye Fillet, mmmmmmmmmm.
The left go negative. Theres a first.
So DPF what don't you agree with ? The message seems to be that Fonterra are logging rain forests to produce milk. Presumably this is easy to verify or not ?
Redbaiter – surely they are arguing on facts. If Fonterra is destroying rain forest then that is a fact. If they are destroying rain forest then animals will be made homeless – a fact.
The reactionary Luddites at it again. They will be happy sending NZ back to the Stone Age.
Greenpeace is the militant arm of the watermelon party, so this sort of propaganda is expected.
What is the alternative feed source that Greenpeace are offering up? I want to hear their solutions, not just their whining.
@ Bevan: "Prime Eye Fillet, mmmmmmmmmm."
oh yeah – then Im going over to Red Alert to tell them I paid for that beautiful meal with my tax cut and watch their heads explode.
I prefer this Greenpeace ad:
It has a certain dead-eyed Hilter Youth quality about it that makes it so compelling.
It's about the PKE. Plenty of noise and misdirection from both sides, but there do look to be better (price, nutrition, impact) alternatives.
Had a long conversation with a very passionate anti-ETS, anti-climate change farmer. He completely surprised me by praising GP in exposing this issue – and felt strongly that NZ farming doesn't need this product.
Just wait till the public and GP cotton on to the fact that Fonterra's new farms its buying in China (how ironic) are cubicle farms (acknowledged by Fonterra).
And that's the problem with Greenies. With a full Brazilian that pube problem just disappears…
People who don't think very clearly may also worry that Fonterra milk is full of hair from a baboon's ass.
Typical Greenpeace lies and scaremongering. They make me sick!
Mr. Gibson, I 'm surprised you seem to have not read the article yesterday on the lies from the Sea Shepherd organisation. The environmental movement is corrupt and cannot be trusted. That it has such partisan support among our media, that group who are bound by the code of their profession to be SKEPTICS is even more upsetting.
When one sees such dereliction of duty, and also observes such corruption and dishonesty, why would anyone ever take anything these obsessive people say at face value.
What about the widespread indoctrination of naive and gullible school children? Is this something that anyone with a rational argument would need to do?
Without a doubt there is another side to this story, and I have actually addressed it on a previous occasion. Do you think it is a good thing that the media is so hopelessly compromised? Do you endorse the indoctrination of school children? Do you yourself think there could be any truth in any argument that opposes the views of Greenpeace, or is it basically a matter of faith with you?
How interesting. PKE is basically a waste product after the OIL is extracted from the Palm Kernel to make bio-diesel.
Are there any protests about the use of palm kernel oil for bio-diesel or is it all aimed at the people making use of the waste product?
Greenpeace don't offer solutions. They place a different discount value on resource use and expect that everybody else will have a similar value too but won't have thought about their personal resource use. However, that's simply not the case. Given that, they need to offer viable solutions which don't inconvenience too much, probably starting with practical ones and incrementally building up with what people could do. But they don't really. They might on their website, but how many people actually bother going there unless they're already dedicated to the cause?

To further extend;
After the bio-oil is extracted, that many people demand and use in many "today products" plus bio-diesel then the PKE is often just burnt to carbon, but here in NZ the dairy farmers extend the cycle when they recycle that high nutrious feed waste product, producing milk, only using so far a very low percentage of all that waste.
Probably that carbon factor now becomes locked up into our soils.
Attractive young lady. Obviously uses quite a bit of the stuff herself http://www.fedepalma.org/oil_uses.htm
If the Greenies hadn't jumped up and down about biofuels a few years back then Indonesia wouldn't be converting forest to plantation now – they would be drilling for oil instead. Unexpected consequences and all that.
Hey Greenpeace
No pressure
Wasnt that the bird who played Morgan in Shorty? If so Im glad Kerion flattened the b***h!
at least they didn't blow up David Ginola this time
Greenpeace says "Stop Drilling for Oil!"
Biofuels are developed, including that derived from Palm Kernel oil, the by-product of which is used as supplementary stock feed.
Greenpeace says, "Stop Using PKE!"
You know, just once, I'd like to see a group like greenpeace put effort into what we should be doing, as opposed to what they think we should not be doing.
More important – what is the effect of PKE on cow guts, especially longer term considerations and side issues.
Corn is used extensively in the US for cow fodder and there are many complications and costs associated with it regarding herd health.
Gibson doesn't rhyme with gibbon.
Oh yeh and Mr Gibson (which rhymes with Gibbon alias a monkey) why don't you ring Ferrier and askhim how many chainsaws Fonterra actually own.
What a mindtwisted fuckwit.
Shouldn't we all be putting some more fibre in our diet?
"It doesn't matter what is true, it only matters what people believe is true."
— Paul Watson, co-founder of Greenpeace
It's all about emissions.
"13. What's wrong with industrial farming?
Agriculture contributes half of all New Zealand's greenhouse gas emissions, and these emissions are rising
(they've increased by 15 per cent since 1990). The dairy sector is responsible for all of this increase. The
Ministry for Agriculture and Forestry (MAF) expects that by the end of 2010, these emissions will have
increased by at least 25 per cent above 1990 levels40.
So at a time when everyone needs to be thinking of ways to reduce emissions, the dairy industry is planning
an expansion that could see emissions rise drastically."
The destruction of rainforests is a real problem. Since the extremists like Al Gore (and Greenpeace too it must be said) have been desperately drumming up global warming, more mundane yet immediate things like deforestation have been pushed into the background. Greenpeace beating up Fonterra won't make one iota of difference, but their hearts are in the right place on this one (unlike on say global warming hysteria).
Don't forget.. these attack videos also show you what *they* think of humans, sanctity of life, and what *they* think is the answer.
The destruction of rainforests is a real problem
A thousand years ago the forests of Europe were cleared to make way for agriculture and in the process Europeans became rich and comfortable.
The heirs to that legacy of forest clearing are the cretins of Greenpeace who live comfortable easy lives of plenty and who are trying to ensure that the less fortunate remain stuck in poverty.
They are hypocritical arseholes and if I had my way I'd make them go and live in the rain forests without the benefits of any technology that didn't exist prior to the 17th century.
I reckon they'd soon change their tune
"Fonterra's use of palm kernel fuels rainforest destruction".
True enough. If you take away the implicit "partly", "indirectly", "to some degree" etc. It's a fact that some NZ dairy farmers are buying palm kernel extract (PKE). And Fonterra buys their milk (and is owned by them). Buying PKE creates demand in the palm oil industry. Some palm oil is produced on land which was formerly rainforest and some of this was orangutan habitat. All true. Just like:
"Mowing your lawn funds repressive anti-democratic regimes in the Middle East" (partly, indirectly, to some degree)
"Owning a car funds the nuclear power industry" (partly, indirectly, to some degree)
"New Zealanders benefit from forest destruction" (partly, indirectly, to some degree)
"Things support and cause other things" (partly, indirectly, to some degree)
I see she was out running with I-pod things in her ears .. not pc these days with so many deaths being attributed to the practice.
Interesting how there is no meat, eggs or alcohol visible in the fridge. Bloody vegie wowsers. If she had grabbed a cold beer out of the fridge she would have been fine. Which just goes to show that beer is safer than milk – even Greenpeace says so!
The last thing I want to do after going for a run is drink a glass of milk.
I knew it, running is bad for you. I've yet to see a smiling runner.
Malcolm, you have won the prize for gullible and ill informed horse shit:-
""Fonterra's use of palm kernel fuels rainforest destruction"."
The truth is:-
"Greenpeace's drive for bio-fuels fuels rain forest destruction."
Fonterra uses a by product which otherwise is burned in bloody great fires which emit smoke and, God forbid, carbon dioxide.
If NZ dairy farmers stopped using palm kernel tomorrow the deforestation would continue, thanks to Greenpeace.
Just as the world's temperatures would continue to change, up or down, even if the civilized world shit dawn ALL it's industry tomorrow.
Welcome to the watermelon world of environmentalists.
If the additive is contributing to deforestation then sure lets not use it. If it was going to be dumped anyway if no-one used it because the main use of Palm Oil was biofuel production then this advert is being disingenuous. But still, perhaps a better product can be found if it is a marginal call to use it.
As to the general hating of the dairy industry. Newsflash: Farming pays the bills in this country. If you don't like it, kindly pay for your own social welfare, health-care, education, policing, defense, and government bureaucracy – and please do so on a windswept rock in the Auckland Islands. Else you are a hypocrite – in which case, kindly spare us all the wining.
Fonterra uses a by product which otherwise is burned in bloody great fires which emit smoke and, God forbid, carbon dioxide.
True. But it's also true that they pay for PKE, thus they contribute to the viability of the palm oil industry. Anyway you seem to have missed my point. No problem.
Maybe my point was too oblique. Adolf, my point is their statement is true if you strip away all the caveats which we mostly do when making bald statements. Bald statements draw your attention to a fact. But to make sense of the fact you must consider all the "partly", "indirectly", "to some degree" bits. Without those you're adrift in a world of facts, with no way to sort the important from the unimportant.
As to your point about PKE extract being an otherwise wasted by-product, and hence using it does not fund the industry from which it comes. That is simply nonsense. E.g. You own a saw mill and dump your sawdust in a hole in the ground. It's a worthless by-product and actually costs you money to dispose of. If I come along and start buying your sawdust, then suddenly it's just another product and income stream. And when you look at your business and decide to expand, it's totally relevant. You wouldn't say: "Oh I can't consider the sawdust income because it used to be a worthless by-product". Income is income.
In my opinion, it's a dishonest ad.
@Sonny Blount – Re solutions there is extensive information here:
http://www.greenpeace.org/new-zealand/smartfarming/ … the solution to NZ's adiction to palm kernel is more sustainable farming practices and locally grown maize when supplementary feed is really needed.
@Redbaiter The Greenpeace campaign is backed up by plenty of facts and figures – check it out for yourself :
@Manolo – back to the stone ages? Not sure where you got that from. Greenpeace advocates sustainable 'smart farming', embracing clean technology and renewable energy http://www.greenpeace.org/new-zealand/en/reports/energy-r-evolution-a-sustain/
@RightNow arguing that it's OK to use PKE because it's a waste product is like saying it's OK to make whale skin shoes because whale skin is a byproduct of the whaling industry. The fact is that it is a lucrative industry in its own right and simply makes the palm industry more viable.
Isn't Greenpeace headquartered in Amsterdam? That's in a country that has been almost completely deforested, and they've destroyed most of their wetlands. Why don't they boycott the Netherlands and base themselves in a third world country that might not have to resort to subsidence farming if a few NGOs were supporting their economy?
Has anybody else noticed that it is only Fonterra suppliers that use palm kernel extract.
Those Tatua and Open Country Cheese suppliers must be oh so perfect.
I'll wager that Fonterra's spend on paid liars, also known as public relations consultants, is many many many times more than that spent by Tatua and Open Country Cheese. It just goes to show that if your paid liars spend so much, then you are left alone facing the demented derelict dickheads of the protest industry.
Had Fonterra left their head office where the N.Z. Co-Op Dairy Co Ltd had their head office, that is, Hamilton the protest industry would have left them alone. The protest industry will not venture more than 100 kilometres from a television studio.
@davidp Greenpeace International is based in Amsterdam Greenpeace is present in 40 countries across Europe, the Americas, Asia, Africa and the Pacific. It's big but not sure enough if it's big enough to support a 'third world' country.
When are we going to have a decent public debate about using nuclear power? No emissions!
Isn't palm kernel just a 'waste' by-product of palm oil production? If eco-terrorists want to reduce production, they should stop using soap, stuffing their gobs with Cadbury chocolate, etc. Oh wait – they don't bathe using soap, instead using assess milk (if anything).
Interesting interview on Nat Radio this afternoon with someone from Federated Farmers, Crop and Seed. He was very ambivalent about importing palm kernel – said it was a bio-security risk to the large seed industry (50% of the world's carrot seed is grown in Canterbury).
nyoung… A few or ten million bucks in salaries, rent, and services would do quite a lot for a third world city. Whereas it is no big deal in a European capital. But the fact remains that Greenpeace's top level management prefer to live in a country that has been deforested and which has an enormous carbon footprint per capita. They're like Al Gore or Prince Charles, lecturing the rest of us to consume less while enjoying all the benefits of a modern capitalist economy.
Feeding PKE to livestock contributes to rainforest destruction about as much as mulching your garden with bark chip contributes to radiata pine destruction.
For the simple-minded, that is not very much at all. The value of a pine tree is in the timber, the bark is simply an unwanted byproduct. Ditto palm oil – the value is in the oil.
The surge in palm-oil planting began long before PKE was 'discovered' by the dairy industry, and continues apace in countries where the oilseed waste is dumped or burned locally.
NZ could ban PKE imports tomorrow, and it wouldn't make the slightest bit of difference to the rate of forest destruction. But it would make Greenpeace supporters feel really really good about themselves, and that, after all, is the main point of Greenpeace.
nyoung: "@RightNow arguing that it's OK to use PKE because it's a waste product is like saying it's OK to make whale skin shoes because whale skin is a byproduct of the whaling industry "
I'm not so much arguing that it's ok to use PKE, I think my real issue is that I have an immediate distrust of any organisation that promotes certainty of catastrophic climate change before they actually have a half decent understanding of all the variables. Frankly I think Greenpeace is in on a big scam. Carbon credits for some rainforest in South America seems to ring a bell in the old memory.
I stopped my WWF donations last year because of their scare tactics. I will never again donate to an environmental group.
I heard the interview too. I was left wondering exactly what species found in the tropical jungles of Indonesia would thrive as a weed on the frozen carrot fields of Ashburton. The triffid, perhaps? Sorry, Feds spokesfarmer – back to biology classes for you.
What is this 'industrial farming' of which you speak?
Cows produce emissions. If you have 1000 cows, you will produce 1000 times more emissions than if you had one cow. Unsurprisingly, you will also produce 1000 times more milk and meat. At what point does owning cows become 'industrial'?
If Greenpeace thinks New Zealand (and presumably the rest of the world) should stop trying to increase food production, it would be nice if they would come out and say so.
Has anybody else noticed that it is only Fonterra suppliers that use palm kernel extract.
Those Tatua and Open Country Cheese suppliers must be oh so perfect.
Just like MacDonalds gets it in the neck from 'healthy food advocates' and meanwhile Burger King advertises another Mega Coronary Elvis Burger.
Who the hell drinks milk stright after a run?!
