Hysterectomy - Topic Overview
What is a hysterectomy?
A hysterectomy is surgery to take out a woman's uterus, the organ in a woman's belly where a baby grows during pregnancy. After a hysterectomy, you will not be able to get pregnant.
Other organs might also be removed if you have severe problems such as endometriosis or cancer. These organs include the cervix (the lower part of the uterus that opens into the vagina), the ovaries (glands on both sides of the uterus that release eggs for pregnancy), and the fallopian tubes (the passageway between the uterus and the ovaries).
Whether or not the ovaries are removed will depend on your age and risk for certain types of cancer. For example, removing the ovaries lowers the risk of ovarian cancer and some types of breast cancer. But if you have your ovaries removed before the age of menopause, you will go into early menopause, and you may be more likely to get heart disease or osteoporosis. Be sure to discuss with your doctor all the benefits and risks of removing your ovaries.

What problems does this surgery treat?
Most often, hysterectomy is done to treat problems with the uterus, such as pain and heavy bleeding caused by endometriosis or fibroid tumors. The surgery may also be needed if there is cancer in the uterus, cervix, or ovaries. Some women may have the surgery during childbirth to save their lives if there is heavy bleeding that cannot be stopped.
Before you choose to have a hysterectomy, consider all of your treatment options. In many cases, this surgery is a last resort after trying other treatments for the problem.

Took me a while to figure this one out.
Importing jQuery in the header of the template (for use elsewhere) breaks this plugin, resulting in the search results showing the spinner at the bottom of the page and no results being loaded.
Otherwise nice plugin, only additional feature I would like is a view all map.

Babes. Hot babes. Hot natural babes! That's the singular reason to recommend this vid, which offers up a consistent variety of choad-chugging d.p. sluts strutting their considerable assets at a tempting Canary Island locale.
The story (shot in French and narrated in English) is a needlessly complicated and exceptionally dull mystery which is hardly worth the effort. Yet, nearly a dozen acts of multi-partner cluster fucks will entrance the viewer. Can't beat that with a stick, but you can beat the meat all night long.

Numerous reports from Southern Orange County show Tropical Storm Irene is making a strong impact across our region. Now downgraded from a Category 1 hurricane, the storm is creating flooding, power outages and difficult conditions for those in the mid-Hudson Valley.
In Tuxedo, Long Meadow Road and the Warwick Brook Road are closed. The East Village Bridge is also closed due to precautionary measures. The water level has not crested yet, but there is a strong possibility this will happen within a few hours. Tuxedo is now landlocked.
Earlier this morning, Warwick police report that Forrester Avenue is completely flooded, as is South Street, and the flood waters are climbing toward Main Street.
And Orange County has ordered police departments to clear all roads and highways of all vehicles until the flooding subsides.
Meanwhile, drivers hoping to exit from the south are out of luck regarding the region's most direct thoroughfare. The New York Thruway is closed both Northbound and Southbound at Route 17.

Hello! I am very new to WP and I chose the Easel template to work with but am trying to modify some things. I am trying to change the Banner into an animated banner that consist of a scroll bar and a slide show.
1. If I import the scroll bar in "Above Header" Section it auto aligns to the left but...I need it to align directly above photo gallery.
2. If I insert an image into "header" widget area then I cannot import a second image into header again... therefore I get the pic gallery but no logo on my top left.
Is there a way to offset an image (i.e logo) to be top left so I can use Header space to import the scroll bar and Gallery? Or can I create one big Header that includes ALL animated images and import that way? Also, does WP templates even accept animated images?If so, which formats?
Thanks in Advance :)

FALFURRIAS (July 3, 2014) Fifteen migrants who were attempting to enter the country illegally were found Thursday in a sweltering tractor-trailer at a South Texas border checkpoint, the U.S. Border Patrol said.
The migrants were found during an inspection early Thursday in Falfurrias, the Border Patrol said.
Eleven people were hiding in the trailer between pallets of carrots and the other four were in the cab, two of them crammed into a small closet.
Many in the group had been overwhelmed by the heat and received medical assistance.
The Border Patrol says the majority of the migrants were from Mexico but some came from El Salvador, Honduras and the Dominican Republic.
Officials say they will be returned to their countries.

Dear Speakers and Session Chairpersons, thank you very much for agreeing to speak or chair one ore more of the Plenary Sessions at the Conference.
We would also wish to extend special thanks to the Co-Organizers, TU Vienna, NTU and ISWA for allowing us this opportunity to organize the Conference in Espoo, Finland. We would also wish to extend special thanks to all Sponsors - Their support was important in our effort to bring you an interesting and well-organized Conference.
We hope that everyone has had a fruitful exchange of views and ideas for the past three days that, We are sure, will help us in one way or other to promote conference themes and topics in our countries.
We hope to see you in Taipei, Taiwan 2015!
On behalf of the Organizing Committee,
Mr. Jukka Heiskanen, Head of the Organizing Committee
Pictures gallery (*dropbox.com), click this link!
Welcome to the 2nd International Conference on Final Sinks in the Helsinki region, Finland May 2013; You will be just in time experiencing the boom of spring with light nights turning into summer after cold and dark winter.
One of the key results of the very successful first conference on Final Sinks held in Vienna in 2010 was that we need a broader understanding and new solutions for disposal of harmful and unusable material created in production and consumption cycles. Landfills, although widely used, are only partial solutions. Thus, the second conference will address different topics regarding the handling of material flows and stocks from the perspective of waste and residuals management, with special emphasis on safe sinks for harmful materials and substances emitted and extracted from anthropogenic material cycles. The themes to be covered include safe final sinks; sources, types and composition of harmful materials; removal of harmful substances from material cycles; future needs for handling material flows and stocks to minimize harmful substances; and landfill aftercare.
The conference is intended for experts from academia, research & development institutions, administrators in the fields of waste management and environmental protection, companies with extended producer responsibility, waste management and recycling companies, consultants in the fields of waste and environmental management, insurance companies and others.
The conference will be held at Dipoli, a former student union building known for its unique architecture, situated at the very heart of the Aalto University Otaniemi campus, where science and art meet technology and business.
Looking forward to seeing you in Finland!
Sincerely Yours,
Professor Juha Kaila and
Head of the Organizing Committee Jukka Heiskanen

Diamond thief Tedeschi winds up in a nudist colony and peeks through bushes at people having sex - sometimes anal sex, as with Marina Cartier. Tony and Patricia kennedy get an aDam and Eve romance going, only Vince Vouyer is the designated poker of Kennedy's ass where he finds a missing diamond. You read that right.

One of the most frequently asked questions at the tasting room is also one of my favorites. "Which food do I pair with this wine?" At Tablas Creek we take food pairing very seriously. For each of our wines we offer recipes and food pairing suggestions. Each spring and fall, we invite our members to taste dishes created by local chefs to match our new releases. We also have a monthly column on our Tablas blog dedicated to this topic. Read More »

Developers wanting to build hundreds of homes in Cheltenham have decided to appeal against a decision by the borough council to refuse planning permission.
Bovis Homes and Miller Homes submitted an application for 650 homes, a GP surgery, offices and a primary school on fields near Kidnappers Lane in Leckhampton.
An appeal is currently being prepared for submission, a spokesman said.
Permission was rejected in July.
A statement from the two developers said they were "very disappointed" with Cheltenham Borough Council's decision.
The land is located inside an area earmarked for 33,000 new homes, under a housing plan for north Gloucestershire.

DiDio & Lee Says DC Will Take the Time to Do "Watchmen"/Rebirth Story 'Right'
Comic Books
After more than 85 years, the sun will no longer come out for Little Orphan Annie, Harold Gray's Depression Era comic about a red-haired waif and the kindly capitalist who gives her a home.
Although the strip, which debuted on Aug. 5, 1924 in the New York Daily News, once appeared in hundreds of newspapers, it now runs in fewer than 20. So Tribune Media Services has decided to cancel Annie with the June 13 installment — a cliffhanger, curiously enough.
The Chicago Tribune's Phil Rosenthal reports that Sunday strip will end with Daddy Warbucks uncertain of Annie's fate after her latest run-in with the Butcher of the Balkans.
"Annie is definitely not dying," Steve Tippie, TMS' vice president of licensing, tells Rosenthal. He says that while "the daily newspaper strip will go away […] that doesn't mean that Annie won't come back … whether it's (in) comic books, graphic novels, in print, electronic. It's just too rich a vein (not) to mine."
Indeed, Little Orphan Annie inspired a long-running radio show, three motion pictures, a television movie, and a musical — the basis for one of those films — that ran for six years on Broadway and has since been staged countless times around the world.
IDW Publishing has released four volumes of The Complete Little Orphan Annie collection through its Library of American Comics imprint.
My dog once played Sandy in a high school production of Little Orphan Annie.
When you consider how anachronistic Little Orphan Annie is, it's a wonder how its lasted so long.
I haven't thought much about LOA in years, but it's one of those things I thought would always be there.
Anachronistic tho it may be, letting an 85 year old institution fall so far is a shame, if daily strips weren't so anemic (resistant to change) this wouldn't happen.
Periodic updates the the mies en scene and tropes and it could still be made vital and interesting (ala the last 5 years of Archie).
She's still a hellofa iconic marketable image.
The sun will come out… tomorrow… bet your bottom dollar that tomorrow… they'll be sun….
I never knew much about the character beyond what relatives of my parents' generation told me until several months ago when I read a book of reprints from the depression era, and I was shocked how utterly unsympathetic the strip was towards the unemployed of the time. It was very much what my relatives, whose childhoods were in that era, had described.
Another interesting aspect is how the strip, since there was no expectation of collection, would often recap the last few days in expositional form on a daily basis!
Websnark.com used to talk about Annie, most heavily around 2004. I'm not saying Annie is a great newspaper strip in the Jay Maeder era, just that it's more insane than most cultural institutions.
The strip featured a cross-dressing Satanist around 2004, for one thing. I'm not making this up.
The market has spoken. We all know that the adorable little orphan would sooner die than be subsidized.

Star Micronics Pioneers Advanced iOS & Android POS Printer SDK & Provides Sample Printing App
Star Micronics Pioneers Advanced iOS and Android POS Printer SDK and Provides Sample Printing Application
iPad and Android POS applications for retail and hospitality have rapidly emerged within the last two years and Star is striving to provide its global software partners with the most advanced iOS and Android POS printer SDK: StarIO for iOS and Android.
StarIO is an API (Application Programming Interface) designed to sit between the POS application and the Star printer, providing a simple solution for directly communicating to and obtaining status from the printer. It minimises test and development time by enabling the software developer to implement communication, printing and full status support quickly and easily. Printer status is a crucial component of many POS applications to confirm if printing has succeeded or failed, a connected cash drawer is open or closed and to alert users to physical errors such as paper out or cover open. StarIO allows the software developer to have full control over application development and provides the ability to seamlessly change interface between Serial, Parallel, Ethernet or USB without any requirement to code specific protocol handling as required by each of these interface types, allowing a single application to communicate easily with Star printers.
Each StarIO based SDK Package has extensively documented source code and includes an informative manual explaining all capabilities. In each package a sample program demonstrates how to implement advanced functionality and customise print outs. The examples demonstrate simply and effectively how to print logos and barcodes, format text, cut paper, get status and much more. Each feature can be referenced in the source code, modified to fit the application requirements, then copied and pasted directly into the application project. Recent updates to the SDK Package offer enhanced integration and support for:
- Apple Airport Express®
- Mobile printer sleep mode
- Retina display
To enhance the availability of its solutions to its software partners Star is constantly developing its presence on app marketplaces, with its sample printing app currently available on Google Play. Print samples are organised by Mobile printer and POS printer with POS printer subsequently broken down into Line Mode and Raster Mode. Full sample receipt printing is provided for each of these printer types. This application allows developers to test a wide variety of customisable samples and functionality designed specifically for Star POS and Mobile printers. It also demonstrates the powerful flexibility of Star Micronics' printer connections by enabling customers to connect their Star printer to an Android device via Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, USB and Ethernet.
Simon Martin, Director & General Manager, Star Micronics EMEA, comments "The StarIO SDK offers iOS and Android POS printer and receipt printer solutions for retail and hospitality with minimal time needed for integration. Star is leading the industry with its SDK not only in terms of its wide availability but also its quality and convenience. We have received excellent feedback from our software partners who report that it took much less time than anticipated to add printer support into their iOS or Android Tablet POS applications. With a greater array of operating systems and languages supported with well-organised documentation and code samples, this vastly improves on the fragmented downloads available from other manufacturers."

Arts Oliver Stone's 9/11 Conspiracy Theory
I deplore World Trade Center. It's a hack job of the grossest order: trite (if you or your significant other were buried under 20 feet of rubble, would you drift off into pillow-soft-focus reveries about sawing wood with your son?), boring (two people immobilized under 20 feet of rubble does not make for an interesting hour of cinema), and infuriating (in the way the film recklessly links 9/11 and the Iraq war).
From my review:
The two cops are eventually rescued by a rogue marine named Dave Karnes. Karnes isn't just any first responderin fact, he's retired from the service. But he's been called by God to pull on his camo and descend on Ground Zero without credentials or safety equipment. (His revelation comes in a pew at Pentecostreligious viewers are expected to overlook the fact that Pentecost occurs in the spring.) This footman of the apocalypse, played with hokey gravitas by Michael Shannon, tends to say things like, "I don't know if you guys know yet, but this country's at war." (Did God tell you that, buddy?) Better yet: "Looks like God made a curtain with the smoke, shielding us from what we're not yet ready to see." (Is that like when Oliver Stone fades to black five times in one movie?) But my single biggest complaint about World Trade Center is the way it uses the Karnes character to link 9/11 with the war in Iraq. After all the drama is over, Karnes swells with righteous anger. "Gonna need some good men out there. To avenge this," he announces gruffly, his pronouns damning in their lack of specificity. Then, immediately before the credits roll, Karnes gets his own title card: "DAVE KARNES RE-ENLISTED IN THE MARINES AND SERVED TWO TOURS OF DUTY IN IRAQ." The truth is sloppy, I'm sure, but this kind of causal carelessness is absolutely unforgivable, especially when so many Americans still believe that Saddam Hussein had some hand in 9/11.
Implying that going to war in Iraq was a way to "avenge" 9/11 is, in my opinion, an overtly political move. This seems to have gone clean over most critics' heads:
A.O. Scott, New York Times: "But Mr. Stone and Ms. Berloff, like Mr. Greengrass, keep their distance from post- or, for that matter, pre- 9/11 politics. The two men buried under the Trade Center don't even know what brought it down, and everyone else is much too busy to begin learning the exotic vocabulary we would all eventually acquire. This movie has nothing to say about Osama bin Laden, Al Qaeda or jihad. That comes later."
David Ansen, Newsweek: "Piercingly moving and utterly unpolitical, "World Trade Center" holds us in a fierce grip."
The subhead for David Edelstein's more ambivalent review calls the movie "strenuously apolitical."
It wasn't just the New York critics who had the wool pulled over their eyes. Here's Bill Arnold, in the Seattle P-I: "When it was announced last year that Oliver Stone was making a 9/11 movie called "World Trade Center," the assumption was that it would be another of his dark revisionist views of modern history, perhaps something on the order of "JFK." But surprise! Stone's take on 9/11 could hardly be less political — or controversial."
What these reviews aren't telling you is that (presumably left-wing) film critics and explicitly right-wing activists are being given completely different talking points about World Trade Center. According to a piece by David M. Halbfinger in the New York Times (behind a firewall here:
Oliver Stone, that symbol of everything about Hollywood that conservatives love to hate, is getting help in marketing his newest movie from an unlikely ally: the publicity firm that helped devise the Swift boat campaign attacking John Kerry's Vietnam record in the 2004 presidential race […] Mr. Stone said that he knew nothing of the firm's political work until he was contacted by a reporter on Wednesday. The director's "World Trade Center," a largely factual drama about the rescue of two police officers from ground zero after the 9/11 attacks, is to be released on Aug. 9 by Paramount Pictures. But it is already drawing rave reviews in some unlikely quarters.
L. Brent Bozell III, president of the conservative Media Research Center and founder of the Parents Television Council — best known for its campaigns against indecency on television and for stiffer penalties on broadcasters — called it "a masterpiece" and sent an e-mail message to 400,000 people saying, "Go see this film."
Cal Thomas, the syndicated columnist, wrote last Thursday that it was "one of the greatest pro-American, pro-family, pro-faith, pro-male, flag-waving, God Bless America films you will ever see."
(Mr. Stone, for his part, has insisted in the past that the film is "not a political movie," while acknowledging in a recent interview that this "mantra" had been handed to him by his employers.)
To top it all off, a writer on The National Review's Web site, Clifford D. May, actually wrote the words "God Bless Oliver Stone."
This about a filmmaker whose conspiratorial tirades — not to mention his hyperviolent "Natural Born Killers," polarizing political films "J. F. K." and "Nixon," and the lesser-known television documentary on Fidel Castro — have driven conservatives batty for decades. Only last year, The Washington Times, in an editorial, called the hiring of the "conspiracy-addled" Mr. Stone a "maliciously inspired choice" to direct "World Trade Center."
Such glowing reviews for an Oliver Stone movie might have seemed blasphemous to many conservatives until recently, when Creative Response Concepts, on retainer for Paramount, began pitching "World Trade Center" to pundits who would not normally be considered part of Mr. Stone's core audience.
A Paramount spokesman said that the studio did not similarly pitch liberal groups in its multifront promotional campaign, reasoning that the entertainment press had covered that base.
Or rather, the entertainment press was being told the movie was "apolitical," and that was enough for them.
Want to read some less blase assessments of the movie? Try Kenneth Turan, in the LA Times. Or this account, in Slate, of the facts about the rescue that the movie missed. And here's an amusing piece in our sister paper, the Portland Mercury, that ballsily claims WTC is "Worse than the Actual Event."

Rated 4.3 out of 5 by 12 reviewers.
Rated 5 out of 5 by PriscillaB baby kitty loves it! I've been feeding my adult cats the adult formula for months now so when I rescued a 5 week old kitten I decided to try the kitten formula. The baby just loves it and when she is hungry I can't get it out of the can fast enough! August 7, 2015
Rated 1 out of 5 by mzoo My cats devour this food! I wasn't sure about switching food for my 6-month-old kittens, but gave it a shot and am very pleased. I had been feeding them another canned food that was not specifically for kittens, (leftovers from an adult cat) and when I ran out decided to switch to something with better ingredients. They accepted this food immediately and look forward to their little portions of it twice a day. Their main food source is a dry kitten food so this is more of a treat for them. February 17, 2015
Rated 5 out of 5 by LadyGonzo My kitten devoured it!!!! I bought my kitten 2 weeks ago. He is barely 3 months old. He was eating the iams soft pate with chicken. I ran out of it and wanted to give him something that contained a different flavor other than "chicken" and came across this brand/flavor. Let me tell you he loved it!!!! He devoured it as if he hadn't eaten in days. I'm totally pleased:) June 16, 2015
Rated 5 out of 5 by LPKmom Two paws up! We've tried many different brands and varieties of canned food; this is the first brand and flavor of food where there are NO leftovers after mealtime. It contains only quality ingredients; there aren't any animal by-products in it. The texture is really nice; unlike many other canned foods, this one is easy to break apart with a fork. We are really happy that this food is offered in 5.5 oz cans. Our kitties are so happy with this food that we decided to begin purchasing it through the Autoship program. July 17, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by CandiRoll Worth fighting for...says my kittens I foster for several rescues so I have lots of kittens. The first can I put out for my most recent batch of kittens caused them to growl and hiss at each other. It must smell and taste really delicious. I can put out a dish of this and another with my previous brand of canned food - and this one gets slurped up and the other sits there until I have to throw it out. Their coats really get soft and shiny, too. I wish it was less expensive. August 15, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by monicayoo2 My kittens love this! I know Nutro Max is a great brand for cats, but my kittens are so obsessed with this wet food! I feed half a can to my two kittens (both 4 months) for lunch and they eat every bit of it and I'm happy knowing they are getting the best nutritional value from their meal. October 29, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by EJT7 Good value for the money. The kittens gobble down this food. The can is filled with food, not a lot of broth, gravy or other liquids. The value is there for me and the taste is good for the kittens. November 1, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by sockmonkey Kittens like it I foster kittens for our local shelter and transitioned them to another wet food, but they got diarrhea so I backed them down on that food (no abrupt change) and started them on Nupro Max kitten and the diarrhea went away. Plus they love the food and so far have not tired of it. May 19, 2013

Skip to comments.Unlike Romney's "National Council for a New America," Free Republic is a conservative site!
Posted on 05/03/2009 12:32:07 PM PDT by Jim Robinson
I'm going to try one more time to explain what FR is all about.
Free Republic is a conservative site. That does not necessarily mean it is a Republican site. In fact there may be many Republicans we don't support and some Republican issues we cannot agree with.
I'll throw in Arlen Specter as a prime example of a Republican we cannot support. Should be obvious to all why not. Should also be just as obvious to all that we cannot support Olympia Snowe, Susan Collins, John McCain and his lap dog Lindsay Graham, Rudy Giuliani, Mitt Romney, et al.
Some of the issues we cannot support as conservatives even though sometimes initiated by so-called Republicans include TARP, or any kind of government bailout of private enterprise, federal intrusion into free markets, federalized education systems, government provided or controlled health care systems, abortion, gay marriage, amnesty, global warming, gun control, etc.
I guess there is more than one definition of conservatism floating around out there, and this won't be text book, but the one we use involves defending, preserving and protecting our constitution, our unalienable rights, our traditional family values, our American heritage, our nation, our borders and our sovereignty.
We aggressively defend our rights to Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness!
We aggressively defend our rights to freedom of religion, freedom of speech, freedom of assembly, freedom to keep and bear arms, right to due process, right to equality under the law, right to be governed under the rule of law, right to constitutionally limited government, right to corruption free government, right to self-government and our private property rights, etc.
We also aggressively defend our right to state and local government for all issues not expressly delegated to the central government by the constitution.
We aggressively defend our rights to free markets and our rights to live our lives free of government intrusion, interference, coercion, force, or abuse of any kind.
We aggressively defend our rights to national sovereignty, state sovereignty and individual sovereignty!
And this definition also includes aggressively fighting against all enemies foreign and domestic who may try to deprive us of our rights or sovereignty. This would obviously include all foreign enemies, but also we defend against RINOS, Democrats, liberals, socialists, Marxists, communists, militant feminists or homosexualists, radical environmentalists, etc, etc, etc.
And we expect our elected representatives to also aggressively defend our rights and fight against all enemies foreign and domestic. We do not elect people and send them to DC or our state capitals, etc, to reach across the aisles or to be bipartisan or to negotiate or compromise away our rights. If you're not going to aggressively fight for us, and for our rights, STAY OUT!!
We bow to no king but God!
Our God-given unalienable rights are NOT negotiable!
Do NOT Tread on US!
Thank you very much!
I believe that is the best statement of what many or most of us believe that I have seen on the web.
But, but, Mitt is a conservative! (Just ask CNN.) /sarc
Does this mean I can stop trying to be nice?
Mormons are socially conservative and pro-family by religious upbringing. Most Blacks are too!
That's why many Blacks vote for initiatives in California that would ban "gay" marriage.
Many good Blacks voted for Obama because he was Black. Many good Mormons support Romney because he is Mormon.
But Obama is not good for Blacks any more than Romney would be good for Mormons. The policies both men have pursued or that they have signed into law are poison to families, and socially deconstructionist.
A message from the founder of FR
Great pic. The tagline is precious. :^)
Well said and keep in mind that Mormons are generally going to vote for ANY conservative.
I love the flag pin!
Duncan Hunter is done. He's not running for President in 2012 and would be a fool if he tried. Jack Kemp would have better chance of winning.
Multi-ping to the Ann Coulter, Fred Thompson and Atlas Shrugged ping lists.
Ping! Hats off to ya', Jim!
Well said! and bookmarked for future reference when someone needs to learn what makes one a conservative.
I think they're the same cockroach.
Not my call, of course.
But I would not miss the smarmiest among them.
Well stated Bump!
Who is a traitor?
Admit it - this is just an old fashioned vanity.
I believe that judges should write laws.
I'm in good company here, right?
As long as it is our Creator! :^)
I agree. You and I do not see eye to eye about what makes someone a conservative, but this is your site. I am a guest at your site. I supported Mitt Romney in the primary and I still think he is a better advocate of conservative principles than many of the people who post here. I think the tone some on FreeRepublic.com have taken when it comes to Mitt Romney is offensive. Yes, I am a guest here but it is a shame guests have been treated so rudely. Some of the rude behavior reflects very poorly on the site. Name calling never seems the most effective way to win a debate.
Unlike those conservatives who wouldn't vote for a conservative Mormon.
Gadzooks... It certainly is a mystery, Jim, how anyone can not understand FR is a conservative site.
It doesn't take a rocket scientist... or an all knowing, always right thinking, devilish handsome robot to see the truth!
Bender! Stop calling me "Shirley!" Or I will... shoot your washers clean off this conservative site!
Yes, on this conservative site... Mitt's dead, Jim!
So that's that, you conservative campers. Smoke 'em... if you got 'em.
So party on, you right-wing fanatics... the beer's on me. But find your own babebot. This one's mine!
Always tell the truth and only the truth... in bars.
And what ever you do, always practice... safe sex!
The deal is the electorate is made up of a bi-modal saddle (if you take every idealogy into account and spread them out). It's not a left/right thing.
For the most part you have Republicans and you have Democrats. Never mind the Leftwingtards arguing that Republicans are disappearing ~ they aren't, they're just not talking to the Leftwingtards anymore.
The reason we have mostly Republicans or Democrats is we have single-member districts at the state level. The math forces all candidates to "embrace" something so they do. That's where we get RINOs from ~ where there are too many Democrats, and not enough Republicans to provide something to "embrace" that's consistent with the national Republican party ~ in short, RINOs occur where that other node in the bi-modal saddle is MISSING ~ and unfortunately it's always been MISSING in some places, e.g. New York, Boston and its suburbs, Philadelphia and its suburbs, Pittsburgh, Cleveland, Chicago and so on.
It ain't comin' back in the places where it's always been missing.
Well, anyway, the long and the short of it is to win where there's a bi-modal saddle you have to attract folks from the other node. At the same time there's always a fringe of people who can't quite get their act together and think the math of the single-member district can be defeated, and they're out there. Sometimes they think of themselves as Independents ~ but they're not. They are simply outlyers or fringe people. Fortunately they never constitute as much as 20% of the electorate. Unfortunately the other node, for us the Democrats, have sufficient numbers to beat us even if we get all the fringe people and they get some of ours. Vice Versa is true as well.
So, how do you win over Democrats to vote for Conservative candidates? That's the question to ponder. Winning over the fringe (so-called independents) is not all that hard, but winning over Democrats to vote for Conservatives is the issue.
Undoubtedly charismatic candidates will help. Lots of campaign dollars will help. Most of all we have to show that our non-Democrat candidates CAN lead.
Always remember, though, Democrats are like dogs. Unless you convert them they will return to their vomit. We are at such a time in our history. Someone forgot to tame the new Catholic Democrats and convert them into Real Catholic Republicans. There's a counterpart problem in Mormon territory as well ~ the Mormon Democrat. They've got enough of them around to ruin the chance of a real Conservative to win. Someone has to go after those people and convert them ~ it wasn't just enough to turn 'em into Mormons (SEE: Mormon, Baptist, War in the Intermountain) ~ they had to be brought over all the way.
We also forgot to convert the Coal Country Democrats back into Republicans ~ they're still Conservative enough, but we lost them several decades back. They're worth some work.
Worst of all we lost the North East ~ we gave up the Republican party to the RINOs ~ and there went all the other offices. No RINO ever supports the ticket. That's gotta' change, and that's why I think the RINO brand has to be driven from the Republican party and denied access to Conservative votes.
Palin voted for Romney. That must make her a MITTEN.
Good job Jim.
Think I'll go and give some money for the Free Republic fund raiser to support you and your web site, and THANKS.
Correction: We went through this with the abortionist, gay rights activist, illegal alien supporting, gun grabbing Rudy Giuliani until someone created another website call WAnkers for Rudy and they all flew the coop, and then slurked back claiming they supported whoever and now pretend like their Rooty love was all for the greater good.
I am not aware of ANY conservative Mormon EVER running for national office, nor am I aware of ANY polling data that suggests that conservatives would be unwilling to vote for a conservative Mormon.
The libs, in and out of the party, keep trying to convince us otherwise.
Amen Amen Amen!!!
I'm 100% in agreement!
FR is not for everyone!
Put it another way.......
RINO's not welcome here.
Please Support FR
Personally, my favorite nickname for him is Grahamnesty, if that's any indication of my dislike for him. Not sure given his past actions if he's "redeemable" at all. And, that's no matter how much blood, sweat, and/or tears he put into Clinton's impeachment... After all, like it or not, Clinton's impeachment was a "star-maker"(no pun intended) type partisan political action (even if it had merit, and was warranted action). Many politicians will use a "crisis" like an impeachment to get air-time, etc... (Sound familiar? LOL)
We heard all the excuses for not voting for Hunter.
He doesn't have name recognition. Neither did Palin 3 months prior to the election.
He isn't "charismatic" enough. And John McCain was?
He isn't an "attractive" choice. Uh, John McCain?
Representatives can't win. Not with self fullfilling prophesies.
The man would have driven Zero into the ground in a straight debate. When others were whining about the ringers being sent to the CNN debate to ask questions, Hunter sent a letter to Hillary Clinton daring her to send more. Hunter didn't beat around the bush when he called Harry Reid a treasonous coward and it left Reid speechless for once. Hunter certainly wouldn't have run out to spray paint his name across the wildly unpopular bank bailout. Where other republicans live in fear of the media, Hunter walks up the steps and bangs on the door.
He was the true Reaganite candidate and the only one not claiming the mantel.
Huckabee is a social conservative and fiscal leftist. The last thing we need is someone on video as Governor, begging the legislature to raise taxes.
Impressive shilling here, by the way:
Unfortunately, the whole straw man argument that anyone who dislikes Myth Romney is a Huckabee supporter also is a common tactic of the shills and it's a pretty vapid one, so you lose points with that.
For a minute there, I thought Mitt might have been offering more money to his FR boosters in order to get better ones.
I didnt vote for McCain...I voted for Palin....and I would again...
I Did not see Jeff Flake on a national ticket...
You know, I really want to think that most people here actually have the ability to think beyond the level of a 6 year old. Now, please tell us, when did Palin vote for Romney? Did she reside in Massachusetts when he ran for governor there? Did she vote for him in a Republican presidential primary? Nah, that can't be it either. So you tell us, when did she 'vote for Romney'?
"We are a center-right nation and the right is making a stand."
I like to believe that we are a center-right nation but as I tell my kids at the end of the game. "I don't care about who shoulda, woulda, coulda won. Look at the scroreboard."
Well look at the scoreboard.
I to voted to McCain, but that was because he was running with Palin.
We need a conservative to lead the GOP or to hell with the GOP. I can't take another McCain.
Very good points.
Repeat a lie often enough...
Well then, pissant must have three names, because I agree with library user! LOL!
The biggest regret I have is that I did not write in Duncan Hunter's name!
I would be unwilling to vote for a Mormon, sorry. Mitt is a Ken doll. The Mormons will not be deemed OK til they get the polygamy thing ironed out.
Hey, I voted for Reagan TWICE.

Hopefully, Romney is a Latter Day Politician. Great oratory, JR...

Catalogue entry
Inscribed 'Geroldswil. Aug. 1949/James Boswell'
Ink and watercolour on paper, 17 3/8 × 11 3/4 (44 × 29.7)
Presented by Ruth Boswell 1977
This drawing was made by Boswell while on holiday with his wife Betty and their daughter Sally in Switzerland in 1949. The man shown in the drawing is Fritz Reiss, who had married a girl, Rösly, that the Boswells had met while staying in Lugano in 1947. After the Reiss's marriage in 1949 they moved to Fritz Reiss's family house in Geroldswil, a small town near Zurich, and it was here that the Boswells were invited to stay. Betty Boswell told the compiler that he had been a very shy man, that he had collected stamps, and had died in about 1967.
This drawing may have come from a large sketch-book. Boswell always carried at least one sketch-book with him when travelling, either with large paper, normally 12 by 9in (he had these sketch-books made up), or pocket sized with small squared up paper. He worked very fast and very quietly, recording people, places and interior scenes, drawing vignettes of the life around him. Many of these were similar to, or were actually used as illustrations in Lilliput (of which he was art editor at this time) and other magazines, but many others express his enjoyment of drawing and are a record of places visited.

Counselling sessions
The McGill Counselling Service provides one-on-one counselling to individuals dealing with a wide range of psychological and emotional issues and academic and vocational challenges. Trained and experienced in dealing with the unique difficulties encountered by university students, our professional staff work with each client to alleviate distress, promote self-understanding and develop effective solutions to the obstacles impeding their growth and success.
Counselling is available to all full- and part-time McGill students who have paid student services fees.
Session limit
The Counselling Service operates within a short-term model, limiting the number of sessions per student to a maximum of 15 per year. Referral to other services within or outside the University may be made if individual concerns require further attention or specialized assistance.
Other than a modest cost-recovery charge for vocational testing materials, as well as for some workshops, Counselling services are free of charge to McGill students.
The information shared in Counselling is strictly confidential, and is released only with the student's written permission or if required by law, as in the case of child abuse or the immediate threat of harm to self or others.
Additional services
In addition to our regular counselling services we also offer vocational counselling and testing, crisis support, and the opportunity for students to participate in a number of groups and workshops each semester. Finally, we act as consultant and resource for parents, faculty and staff who have concerns about issues that may be affecting their loved ones or students.
Letters of Support
We are often asked if Counselling provides letters for students allowing them to get extensions on papers and defer their exams. The answer is that counsellors do write Letters of Support for students, but only within certain parameters. A student who has been involved in counselling prior to exams or deadlines may receive a letter from a counsellor outlining the circumstances that have contributed to their academic difficulties. While there are exceptions, letters are not normally written after the fact (i.e. a request for a letter after a deadline has been missed) if the counsellor has no prior knowledge of the circumstances leading up to the difficulty.
Whatever the case may be, letters from Counselling do not relieve students of their academic responsibilities. It is professors and deans who make decisions regarding course requirements and grades. The purpose of a Letter of Support is to assist professors and deans in understanding the psychological and emotional factors that may have interfered with a student's ability to complete assignments or prepare for exams.

Women's Soccer
Sept. 13, 2013
LAWRENCE, Kans. - Behind two goals from senior Taylor Housley, the University of San Diego women's soccer team (5-2-0) knocked off Kansas (3-3-1) 2-0 Friday afternoon in their first match of the Kansas Invitational.
Playing in front of a national audience on ESPN3.com, the Toreros recorded their second shutout of 2013 season.
Taylor Housley scored the first of her two goals in the 21st minute after receiving a beautiful pass from freshman Michaela Dooley. Dooley attracted two defenders while dribbling up the left side and was able to slip a pass to a wide-open Housley for the easy goal.
In the first half, both teams had six shot attempts, with each team putting two on frame, but it was the Toreros who took advantage of their opportunities and took a 1-0 lead in to halftime.
Housley scored her second goal of the day in the fourth minute of the second half corner kick. Senior Kelley McCloskey sent the corner to the near post where freshmen Jacqueline Altschuld flicked a header to the far post, finding Housley for the tap-in.
The Jayhawks applied pressure for the entire second half; 11 of their 17 shot attempts came in the second period. However, Michelle Craft and the Toreros back line stood strong to claim the 2-0 shutout.
Sophomore goalkeeper Michelle Craft (5-2-0) registered eight saves as she recorded her second shutout of the season. Jayhawks keeper Kaitlyn Stroud had three saves but was saddled with the loss.
The Toreros will play their second match of the Kansas Invitational at 7:30 a.m. Sunday morning against Nebraska (3-2-1), who knocked off San Francisco 3-0 earlier in the day.

Intel says it's not leaving the TV business after all
Just shifting away slightly
CHIPMAKER Intel is not withdrawing completely from the TV business, but has decided to shift its attention to set-top boxes and content gateways.
Yesterday we reported that Intel is leaving the TV business after its smart TV initiative failed get off the ground. Since then Intel has told The INQUIRER that, while it is winding down its digital TV operations, it will shift attention to Internet Protocol (IP) set-top boxes and multi-screen content dissemination.
According to Intel, the consumer electronics market for IP content delivery is worth its time and money, so much so that the company is merging its consumer electronics business into its Netbook and Tablet Group.
Intel's Smart TV venture would have, at least in theory, disposed of the set-top box as it is currently known. There's no doubt that delivering content over IP will continue to grow, but Intel's decision seemingly moves the firm away from companies like Samsung, Panasonic and LG, and straight into competition with set-top box makers such as Motorola.
According to Intel, it's not just about set-top boxes, with the firm claiming its Netbook and Tablet Group will use the experience from the consumer electronics group to build new technology into tablets, netbooks and hybrid devices.
Even with firms like Panasonic, Samsung and Sony working hard to get their 'connected TVs' and walled garden application stores up and running, the fact that you still have to use device a that is somewhere between a keyboard and a TV remote control is frustrating. Whereas viewing videos, interacting with applications and browsing the web is far more usable on laptops and tablets.
Effectively, what Intel is doing is trying to control the dissemination of content to devices, or as it would say, multiple screens. It apparently is taking a gamble that videos increasingly will be viewed on devices such as tablets rather than on the telly. µ

Komodo dragon
bites 2 in office
JAKARTA, Indonesia Two people have been hospitalized after being attacked by a giant Komodo dragon that wandered into the office of a wildlife park in eastern Indonesia.
An official at Komodo National Park, Heru Rudiharto, said Wednesday the 6½-foot-long Komodo dragon attacked a park ranger after walking into the office on Tuesday.
It then attacked another park employee who came to help him. Both were badly bitten and were evacuated to a hospital on Bali Island.
Rudiharto said the park ranger also was attacked by a Komodo dragon in 2009.
Endangered Komodo dragons can grow longer than 10 feet. Fewer than 4,000 are believed to be alive. They are found in the wild primarily on the eastern Indonesian islands of Komodo, Padar and Rinca.MORE IN Wire NewsTAMPA, Florida Hillary Clinton named Virginia Sen.

Raman measurement on microscopic inclusions in fluorescent materials requires the ability to measure in small volumes, excellent throughput, and long wavelength excitation such as 1064 nm for fluorescence reduction. Carotenoids and keratin can be measured in epoxy and fossil amber by BaySpec's dispersive 1064 confocal Raman microscope.
Inclusions, small particles less than 1 mm in diameter embedded in other materials, are of interest in a number of different areas. In some manufactured products they result in cosmetic, structural, or chemical resistance defects. On the other hand, entrapped inclusions in paleology, or paints and stains in artefacts are a time-capsule from our past. This article demonstrates a few examples of fast, nondestructive identification of microscopic fluorescent samples using Raman spectroscopy, which were previously unattainable.
