Letters | A story from the trail
- Nov 21, 2013 at 11:09AM
For the last three years, close to Halloween, several volunteers come together to produce a fundraiser which benefits the Mount Si Food Bank. It is a walking play with several scenes staged along a dark trail through the wilderness area behind the police station on Snoqualmie Ridge. It stays true to the Halloween theme with mummies, creatures of the night, zombies, et cetera. We batch groups of ten or twelve, spacing them so each group will come on each scene after the preceding group has gone on down the trail.

A good day to plant: North Bend city, Scouts celebrate Arbor Day by adding more trees | Photo Gallery
- Nov 21, 2013 at 11:23AM
Neither early nor late, North Bend's celebration of Arbor Day, Thursday, Nov. 14, included ideal weather for planting trees. But then, this time of year is usually good for that, says North Bend Senior Planner Mike McCarty. Although Washington usually celebrates the event in April, North Bend declared its own Arbor Day last week, because "this is typically the best time of year to plant trees," says McCarty. "We have such mild winters, it gives the roots more time to get established."

Letters | Humbled to be your council member, says Heather Munden
- Nov 25, 2013 at 11:37AM
Thank you, Snoqualmie! Throughout my campaign, I talked extensively with neighbors and area leaders about the community we love and call home. My goal was to be accessible and responsive to residents, while also working hard on specific priorities. During recent community events, including Snoqualmie Railroad Days, Boeing Classic, Snoqualmie Ridge ROA Annual Picnic, and Snoqualmie Valley Block Party, I listened to hundreds of residents. While going door-to-door, I handed out hundreds of flyers and learned through our neighbors that there is much to be proud of and celebrate in Snoqualmie, but there are also opportunities and challenges to address.

Police are armed with only a description of a man who allegedly shot a seventeen year old victim in the leg Monday night.
CSPD reports the teenager was brought to Memorial Hospital in a private vehicle. The teenager told officers he was walking in the 1100 block of Verde Drive when an unknown man approached him and asked for a cigarette. The teen replied that he didn't have one, and the stranger pulled out a handgun and shot at the teen as he ran away.
The teenager was hit in the leg, but the injury was not life threatening. He was treated and released a Memorial Hospital.
The suspect was described as a white male in his twenties, approximately 6'1" to 6'2" tall with a thin build. The suspect had a light brown colored goatee and was wearing a black jacket, white t-shirt, shorts, and tennis shoes.

Recently, antibodies to human T-cell leukemia virus membrane antigens (HTLV-MA) and elevated levels of beta2-microglobulin and thymosin alpha1 have been found with high frequency in patients with the acquired immunodeficiency syndrome. Prospective studies of asymptomatic persons at high risk for this syndrome will ascertain whether any of these findings is a predictive marker for the disease. In this study, antibodies to HTLV-MA, beta2-microglobulin levels, and thymosin alpha1 levels were determined for a group of asymptomatic adult hemophiliacs and their wives. Five of thirty-nine hemophiliacs had HTLV-MA antibody, compared with none of 21 wives tested. The mean beta2-microglobulin level for hemophiliacs was significantly higher than the control value (p < 0.001), whereas the wives had a normal mean value. The mean thymosin alpha1 values were normal for hemophiliacs and their wives; however, 3 of 22 hemophiliacs and 1 of 16 wives had abnormally high levels. Whether any of these abnormalities correlate with subsequent development of the acquired immunodeficiency syndrome will be ascertained by longitudinal follow-up of this population.

I can taste the fear in their eyes - I love cooked eyes!
I often read about how quickly killing animals makes better-tasting meat. Supposedly the fearful state a hunted animal often dies in releases chemicals (adrenaline? bad juju?) that make the meat less wonderful. True or woo? Science me, please!
What do you do when you and your SO have different tastes?
My girlfriend and I have pretty clashing tastes about many things: movies, art, decorations, you name it. However, we're both interested in moving together at some point. How do we both get our way about how the apartment is decorated and what's on the TV/computer without walling ourselves off from each other? We have some commonalities and I believe that a good relationship is one the challenges both parties to consider new things, so I don't want to give up on that. Help?

Best wine for my taste? Sweet, limited acidity?
I can't seem to stomach wine easily, even the smell is pretty awful, but I want to acquire a taste for it for special occasions. I'm tired of being the only person toasting with a coke! I don't like sour, acidic or alcohol tastes, so I may be out of luck, but if anyone has any recommendations I'd really appreciate it. I should also mention that the above mentioned flavours are all usually much worse when cold, so I'm hoping for a good room-temp wine. Thanks in advance!
Does organic produce taste better than conventional?
The other day I bought some yellow bell peppers at my local grocery store at a discount. When I went to cook them, I noticed they had a much stronger flavor than I expected, which was more complex and tastier to boot. When I looked at the little sticker that was on them I saw that they were labeled organic. I was cutting up some conventionally farmed green peppers at the same time, and compared to the yellow ones they barely had any flavor at all, and a very superficial flavor at that. [more inside]

Loss of sense of taste
I just heard from a friend in another state that she suddenly lost her sense of taste, or at least it altered noticeably. She said she has no other symptoms, does not have a cold or congestion, but sweet tastes less sweet and she has to put lots of salt on anything else to give it taste, which she does not normally do. She is in her early 50s, mostly healthy, and is now visiting relatives for a few days. then will be taking a long drive back home. Any ideas what this could be, and could it be serious?

Is it as simple as forcing yourself to eat a tomato once a day, or is there any pattern for how people can learn to appreciate more foods? [more inside]

Very good, it was my first time cooking amaranth. The grain does seem to get a bit gummy, perhaps from overcooking? But all in all it's a good dish. This same recipe is on food.com from another user, he says it's originally from cropsforthefuture.org
Tried this last night. Mine came out less saucy and more scrambly - probably because I didn't blanch and remove the skins from the tomatoes. It was really tasty. I used lobster mushrooms that we found and dehydrated last fall. I would definitely make it again.
I cooked this today. I was a bit skeptical when I put it on the plate - it looked a bit like a pile of mush - but when I tasted it WOW. Delicious. I could eat it every day.

This was a great, quick week-day meal. A little messy, we ended up eating ours with a fork but it was a hit and even reheated well the next day in the microwave.
This was great. Easy and terrific taste. My son had his without the spinach and I had mine with. I used meatballs that I had made and had frozen. Messy and yummy just like they should be! THANKS! We will be making these again.
A nice meal for those on the run or just want something quick. Make up a salad and you have a complete meal. Thanks~
I have to admit I strayed a little. We used Huntz roasted garlic spaghetti sauce and didn't use any spinach or basil leaves. However we did everything else the same and I must say YUMMY! My husband and I loved them! I am due in 5 days and finding something that "hits the spot" is rare, but this sure did the trick! Thanks for the easy, wonderful recipe! Mandi

Commercial Door Hardware
Not a pro yet?
Take a look at some of the benefits to becoming a Build.com Professional. For more information go to http://pro.build.com.
Commercial Door Hardware Defined
Commercial Door Hardware is used to secure businesses, schools, community buildings and even residential homes. Many homes have been switching to commercial door hardware for the added security it brings to their private and personal spaces. There are several factors that make a piece of door hardware "commercial" grade. Below are some of these factors:
Also in the category of door hardware are items that are designed to increase the efficiency of which a door can be utilized. Items like door closers and exit devices are ideal for doors which receive heavy amounts of traffic.
Exit / Panic Devices
Are often used in areas with high traffic volume. Exit devices allow hands free operation, making them ideal for many public buildings, hospitals and businesses. These are designed with a large push bar, spanning a large portion of the door and are often used at emergency exits.
Exit / Panic Devices
Allow the door to automatically close after someone has entered or exited the building. These devices are great for security purposes; ensuring that your property is not vulnerable after someone has come or gone. In addition, these also provide an extra safety mechanism for fire prevention by helping to keep the fire from spreading.
Our selection of commercial door accessories includes kick plates, pulls plates and push plates. These plates are typically larger than their residential counter parts and are made from heavy duty materials, allowing them to meet high traffic demands.
Commercial door levers are great for children, the disabled and elderly persons. They're easier to grip in comparison to a knob and are perfect for schools and businesses. Most commercial door levers are compliant with ADA requirements.
Commercial door knobs are made with heavier gauge metal construction, and like all commercial door hardware these are built to last. Commercial knobs can handle high traffic demands while keeping your property secure.
Commercial deadbolts are one of the most popular tools used for entrance security. They provide additional security to any lever or knob. Commercial deadbolts are often larger in diameter, drill resistant and contain anti-pry shields. A deadbolt is the pit-bull of door security and is great for both commercial and residential applications.
BHMA (Builders Hardware Manufacturers Association) is a private non-profit organization that operates to ensure performance standards for builder's hardware. The BHMA is accredited by the American National Standards Institute (ANSI). The process to have a product certified is strictly voluntary.
A product that is UL Listed meets UL's safety certification services which include testing, evaluation, and factory assurance during production. UL is a global independent safety science company whose goal is to enhance the safety of products, as well as help give consumers confidence in products they have tested. For door hardware, a product is typically UL Listed to withstand fire exposure for a given amount of time.

Feeling a bit abstracted and commentative this morning. Politics is depressing and energizing at the same time, did you ever notice that? The devouring of the corpus publius…
So photographs.
Wandering the streets, trying to fit what was with what is, seeing the skeleton of what you used to know beneath the layered detritus of the now. I see the same things but they no longer register the same way. Is this, perhaps, nostalgia, intense homesickness, nosta—homecoming—algia—pain?
The past is there, but I am not. I can only note what it once was, testify where it had been, validate the now because the scaffolding of then holds it up.
Or maybe I'm just tired.
We are a pattern-anticipating sensate creature. Where the patterns mean nothing we can oblige the emptiness by bringing our own meanings and applying them. It's as pleasant a pasttime as any other, until we begin believing our own significations to the detriment of the previous occupants. Even knowing the traps, we can't help it. We want to, and sometimes we do, but more often we just think we do. Know, that is. The inability to accept the process leads to tight spaces with no room to maneuver. Squeezes our expectations all out of true.The patterns persist even when the desires change. If we appreciated them for what they are and resisted the urge to impose our own hungers on them, we might find what we need and feel better about it in the process.
But what do I know? I'm just a science fiction writer who takes pictures.
Hope you have a fine day.

I am considering releasing a novel in audio form and am (of course) interested in using WordPress plus Podpress for the website. The problem is that I'm having a hard time finding a theme which reflects a kind of epic fantasy feel (sword and sorcery, etc., but not of the pulp variety...or at least I hope not ;) )--some gothic, some science fiction, but not a whole lot of fantasy. Since I'm swamped with trying to get a whole bunch of things ready to bring the work live, I don't really have time to write a whole theme myself. Can anyone recommend something along this line that I could take a look at (or, if there are any aspiring theme writers out there... :) )?
Thanks much,

Visa Inc. (NYSE:V), a payments technology company, engages in the operation of a retail electronic payments network and manages global financial services. The company also offers global commerce through the transfer of value and information among financial institutions, merchants, consumers, businesses, and government entities.
After a long consolidation of nearly four months, Visa's share price is showing signs of a positive breakout. Yesterday, June 20th, shares closed at $122.59, at the highest point of yesterday's trading range of $121.03-$122.59. I expect a strong rally is coming, with a potential upside of nearly 20% from here.
Fundamental Analysis
The company's strengths can be seen in multiple areas, such as its revenue growth, largely solid financial position with reasonable debt levels by most measures, impressive record of earnings per share growth, compelling growth in net income, and expanding profit margins.
Visa has a market cap of $83 billion. With an estimated EPS of $6.08 for the current fiscal year, the shares are trading at a forward P/E of 20.16, significantly below the average diversified services industry P/E of 28. Shares are up nearly 20% year to date. At a Price/Book of 3.5, Visa is trading at a significant discount to its peers. The average Price/Book is 7.5 for its peers.
An estimated earnings growth of 35% CAGR makes Visa a compelling buy at current levels. Currently, there are 23 analysts who rate Visa a buy, no analysts who rate it a sell, and six who rate it a hold.
Technical Analysis
After rising nearly 20% in February, shares are consolidating in a narrow range from March. Yesterday's price movement is very encouraging for the near term. After a modest correction in May, shares started rising again from the beginning of June. The 200-DMA at $106 has been holding strong since February. Shares found solid support at the 50-DMA of $117 before rising above the 20-DMA nearly at the same level.
Click to enlarge image.Click to enlarge
The MACD gave us a strong buy signal when the share price rose above the 20-DMA, with the orange line crossing over the violet line. Both the orange and violet lines are just about to cross over the green line, which is extremely bullish for the stock.
Regarding the Bollinger Bands, the share price has already crossed over the upper band yesterday. Take a look at February's price movement and the corresponding expansion in the Bollinger Bands. I expect a repeat of February here, which could take Visa's share price near $150 in the short term.
Disclosure: I am long V.

She Walks in Beauty
by George Gordon, Lord Byron
She Walks in Beauty Appearances Quotes
How we cite our quotes: I cite by line number only in this module.
Quote #1
She walks in beauty (line 1)
This is a funny way of describing someone – what does it mean to "walk in beauty," anyway? Is "beauty" some kind of cloud or vapor that the woman is walking in? Or is it like a comfortable pair of shoes?
Quote #2
And all that's best of dark and bright
Meet in her aspect and her eyes: (lines 3-4)
This woman's beauty takes the "best" things from both ends of the spectrum ("dark" and "bright"). And it's not just that she has a pretty face – her whole "aspect," or appearance, is harmonious and lovely.

The ticket for parking lot did not work, had to have it re activated, I was not the only guest with problem? February 8, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by BERT2013 LAX 4 POINTS I'VE BEEN AN SPG MEMBER FOR 8 YEARS. I'VE STAY NUMEROUS TIMES AT THIS FACILITY AS IT IS VERY CONVENIENT TO LAX. I REQUESTED 2 ADJOINING ROOMS, BUT I WAS NOT ADVISED THAT THESE WOULD NOT BE ON THE 7TH FLOOR - SPG LEVEL. EVEN THOUGH IT WAS STATED THE ROOMS WERE UPDATED, THERE WAS SIGNIFICANT STAINING ON THE CEILING, ON THE WALLS, AND PEELING PAINT IN THE BATHROOM. NOT WHAT I EXPECTED. February 8, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by Andy Loved The Experience Comfortable, great service, clean and good location. Beds and pillows were very comfortable! Wish Comfort restaurant had more variety for dinner (meat wise) for the buffet . February 8, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by Malenki Always a pleasant stay. It is always nice to return to this property, where they remember you, and your likes. The newly remodeled areas are very appealing, and lend to the comfort of your stay. I would highly recommend this property for travelers to LAX. February 7, 2013
Rated 2 out of 5 by Belle961 This hotel is old and rooms are small. My side of the bed was really uncomfortable, the bathroom was really small, there was a window that lead to a corridor, which made me feel I had no real privacy. It's just really old fashioned and needs to be completely updated. One thing, the room was clean, breakfast was okay and its really close to the airport. February 5, 2013
Rated 3 out of 5 by Roundtowner Hotel older than other Sheraton in area. The shower did not work & I didn't realize it until the next morning while getting ready to leave on a cruise. Had to take a bath & then squeeze between tub & toilet to wash my hair under the faucet. Little uncomfortable. February 5, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by SteveC So handy I often have to attend seminars along the LAX 'strip' and the Four Points is perfectly positioned. I prefer this to staying in the actual hotel where the event is being staged, so I can get away from the attendees!! Nothing personal! February 4, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by JMK3 A Very Solid Airport Property Had another great stay at the 4 Points LAX. Overall, this is a very solid hotel. The staff was very engaging and attentive, great Platinum recognition, etc. Sure I wouldn't want to spend a week there on vacation, but for a night or two when passing thru town, or between flights it can't be beat! Room exceptionally quiet given the airport location... Didn't hear a plane all night! February 3, 2013
Rated 3 out of 5 by Tex93 not up to my expectations... I have stayed at this property on previous occasions, it is close to LAX, and most of the car rental pickup and return locations. Previous visits were always fine, however, this time a number of items didn't meet my expectations. I had booked a king bed room, but was provided with a double queen bed room, and wasn't allowed to switch rooms, after I asked the front desk attendant to do so. The room itself wasn't clean, floor had debris by the window and it appeared the linens on one of the beds hadn't been changed. The bathroom was missing the bath soap, and the toilet paper holder was hanging by a thread. On a positive note, the bar as always staffed by friendly and professional bartenders, and the selection of beers, and bar food is outstanding. January 31, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by Miriam2013 This hotel always has good room rates I always get a good room price, excellent service from all hotel staff since I arrive until I leave, always trying to help me with every need I can ever possibly have. I'm so happy staying there. January 31, 2013

Rated 5 out of 5 by TennisPro Excellent attention to detail I recently stayed at this hotel and the staff really impressed me with their attention to detail. This was the first time that the down bedding was removed from my room prior to arrival! I also enjoyed the friendly staff, clean room and very comfy bed. January 29, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by MelW bartender at sports bar-yay! as this is an airport hotel, i see it as a place to sleep before continuing on a journey-so my expectations aren't high in terms of luxury or special touches. in and out as far as i'm concerned. that said, you could tell that the room had some wear and tear-but it was comfortable. Unfortunately there were a couple of hairs in the bathtub. nothing terrible but still a little icky. the bartender, Fabi, at the sports bar (brew something?), was really great. she was attentive and professional. she just had a nice demeanor about her and this was *especially* appreciated after a 10 hour flight!

Rated 3 out of 5 by Mark60640 Stinky Towels and Garbage Half of my towels smelled like mildew. On the wardrobe shelf there was a pile of the precious guest's dry cleaning debris. SOmeone needs to work with housekeeping on these items. January 28, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by TennisPro Great Overall Value! This is my new first choice among LAX airport hotels, including the more expensive properties. The staff was very friendly, and the bed and sheets were dreamy! I had never been to a Four Points, and I kindof expected a semi-crappy low-budget experience, but I got a great experience for a budget price instead! January 28, 2013
Rated 1 out of 5 by spg2013 worse stay in years i was told i would get a quiet room, i asked for a quiet floor. while people cannot necessarily be controlled, security should be concerned about disturbance after dark. i called the front desk waited on hold; called back waited longer on hold then hung up had to get up after being woke up and couldnt get back to sleep anyway because of hall noise, (singing loudly) wall noise, etc.; got dressed went down stairs to ask for a different room; nearly midnight now and by the time i switched rooms was wide awake and had the hard task of trying to get back to sleep.

Rated 2 out of 5 by Jackie27Jackie27 Great staff, but, Tub was clogged, wallpaper peeled with mold, and the worst of all, beds were tilted and I could not sleep well.

Rated 3 out of 5 by ccardoso When you reserve it! It's not an upgrade! So we got there 20 minutes before check in time so we were told to wait for the deluxe queen double we reserved or if we wanted to they could put us in a different room. We said no we will wait for our room. 20 minutes later we are assigned a room on the 6th floor where it seemed like the floor just did not belong compared to the rest of the hotel. I open the door and disgusted with the room for starters its not what I reserved it was a standard full double not the queen beds. Called the front desk and asked to please give us the room I reserved. They said oh my apologies there is room next door with queen beds, I responded no, please move me to another floor according to theffront desk they were going to "upgrade" me it took an hour and a half which felt forever with two kids to finally get the room I reserved. I am so serious when I say that some sections. Or wings to this hotel look like you are at two different hotels a crappy one and a nice one. The room that I ended up in was like night and day compared to the first room they put me in. Once that was fixed my stay was good, the breakfast buffet is enough to get the day started, housekeepin was great at keeping everything clean and even put some flowers in received in water for me. Once everything was Settled we did have a good stay. January 15, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by C0827 Smile = Sunshine of California! Front desk was very friendly. I had a great experience with this hotel. Great beer and bar! Breakfast: I wish they have more selections such as berries for the fruit and more varieties for the breakfast bar. However, the waitress was very friendly and I love the way how she provides the service. The front desk lady truly reflects the sunshine of the California!! January 13, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by Fi0na Excellent staff and comfortable rooms Had an excellent check in and check out experience, very friendly and helpful staff everywhere except at breakfast. We said it was included in our room rate and was abruptly told to 'get a voucher'. Airport shuttle driver was brilliant in both directions, very helpful with luggage. Was great to have the guest laundy facility. The 24 hour checkout service is fantastic and much appreciated. Restaurant menu needs more options for dinner. Overall a great stay and I would return.

Bill Clinton: No president could have "magically" fixed economy in one term
By Leigh Ann Caldwell
Last Updated 10:12 a.m. ET (CBS News) Former President Bill Clinton offered a strong defense for President Obama's re-election Sunday morning, arguing that no president could have "fully healed" the economy in four years.
"That's why we've got to keep working at it," Mr. Clinton said on "Face the Nation."
The president's efforts, Mr. Clinton argued, have reversed the downward spiral of losing up to 800,000 jobs per month. "His jobs record is better" than the Bush administration's, he said, adding that no president could have "magically" returned the country back to full employment in just one term.
The former president, who is hosting his annual Clinton Global Initiative conference beginning Sunday, said that the Republicans "militant anti-government" approach will not benefit the economy.
There is "no evidence" that Mitt Romney's "militant anti-government approach will work," Mr. Clinton said. He added that President Obama's "balanced" economic proposal of investment, revenue increases and a spending reduction plan is "more likely to produce broad-based prosperity than Romney's."
Mr. Clinton weighed in on the debate over Romney's taxes, saying the latest release of his tax returns don't tell the entire story.
"It'd be interesting to see how the ordinary income years were treated," Mr. Clinton said. "We're not going to be able to see that."
(Excerpt) Read more at cbsnews.com ...
Reagan did it in three years. That with a Democrat Congress too.
Well we certainly know that the Magic Negro hasn't done anything to fix it.
And silly me, I thought the economy was fixed?
Bush did it in 4 years, too.
It was the switch of Congress to the Democrats in 2007 that torpedoed his second term.
"Broad-based, is code for MORE PUBLIC-DOLE-DEPENDENT idiots, either by handouts to minorities to keep them from rioting, payoffs to Unions ESPECIALLY in the Public Sector, where they rape taxpayers CONTINUOUSLY via their PLANTED cronies with a (D) by their name.
ALL our debt issues can be solved IMMEDIATELY by cutting ALL Welfare, Union-Subsidies via handouts to States to keep UNION public employees from getting pay cuts, benefit cuts, or better yet, MERIT-BASED NON-SENIORITY-Based pay/benefits, etc.
Until we cut the head of the snake that is Public Employees who suck the taxpayers dry and when there isn't enough Taxpayer money to buy the votes, they've been BORROWING IT, like they did for the UAW, SEIU, AFT, AFSCME, and National Teachers' Unions.
I remember well the horrible feeling I had on election day 1976 when Carter was elected, the misery he created, the true hope I felt when we elected Reagan and then, finally, the wonderful Reagan years and the decade that followed. That was the era we had real pride in our country, its leadership, and what we could accomplish. I hope those days return.
Reagan fixed a much worse situation in less time. We had much higher unemployment, more stagnant GDP, an energy crisis and sky high interest rates. It was a deep, long term situation.
Obama entered after a sharp collapse, but is should have had a rapid V-shaped recovery. Unemployment was 7.8 in the month he took office, and has never returned to that number. Things are worse than when he took the reigns. Line up month one numbers for Obama with the current numbers, and line up Reagan month one and after 3.75 years, and there is no comparison.
Obama ran that he could solve the problems, and he hasn't any problem we had in 2008 is worse in several orders of magnitude. Debt, unemployment, size of the economy ,etc.
...they still carry a torch.
The lying Marxist campaigned all throughout 2008 on how bad things were, on how miserable the economy was. He promised he'd have things turned around in 3 years.
If he's too stupid or ignorant to realize the actual state of the economy (then and now) then he's unqualified for the position he holds and is undeserving of a 2nd term.
It's akin to me watching movies about ocean transport and believing I can safely dock a cargo ship, then asking for a second chance when I take out a dock and dump the cargo into the harbor on my first attempt. There's a reason why Hillary said that the presidency is not a place to get on-the-job training.
I was looking for the empty chair
Obama can't. But then he doesn't really want to. The release of the Gitmo murderers tells me he is out to destroy the US..
At least there is proof he was in the discussions, and cannot deny he "knew nothing" as to how bad the crisis was, unless he knew all about it by way of Soros et al and looked the other way. This pic was from a foreign press article. I cannot find much about his activities with Bush in the Fall of 2008 from American sources, but maybe I did not look hard enough.
Yeah....and I thought NO President could destroy us in one term, either.....FU BC
>>>Bush did it in 4 years, too.
It was the switch of Congress to the Democrats in 2007 that torpedoed his second term.>>>
Correct! And it was Fannie Mae and Freddy Mac (BOTH DEMOCRAT PROGRAMS) which caused the housing failure and led to the massive debt. Bush tried 14 times to get oversight on those two programs, but was denied by a Democrat Congress every time.
Can't wait for Monica's book to hit the shelves. Remind the world what a degenerate, disgraceful abuser of women he is
I'll bet if you got out the blowtorch, The Slickster would admit that he thinks Obama is the dumbest b.....d he's ever seen. I sincerely doubt Clinton believes Obama is the least bit capable. He's lying to protect the Clinton ahem good name in Dem circles.
This is Obama's excuse. This is all Mitt Romney needs to say "Well, you're going in the wrong direction and making things worst, and you don't seem to get it."
More debt and higher taxes are not going to solve anything.
"The One" has been graded on a curve his entire life and they want him to be graded on a curve again.
Hmm. But anyone else could have made it better and not so much worse.
"...no president could have 'fully healed' the economy in four years..."
This coming from a guy who watched Obama campaign as "The Messiah"? The earth would heal, the oceans would stop rising, he would pay off half the deficit. You know, the guy who thought he could work miracles?
Democrats are unbelievably deluded and hypocritical.
Silent Cal and Reagan.
Good call!
Reagan did it
Once again Bill Clinton proves he has no clue about reality.
Reality? Here's reality:
It was Obama who said, "If I don't have this done in three years, then there's going to be a one term proposition."
That's a promise we need to make sure he keeps.
That's fine to claim it takes more than 4 years now, but that's not what we were told when Obama was elected. Even he promised a turnaround or it would be a "one-term proposition." Unemployment hasn't improved. The national debt has skyrocketed. There are more people on food stamps now than ever before. The Federal Reserve is funding the bulk of this as not many people want to buy our debt anymore.
I am still in shock that he could be elected in the first place. The fact that enough people looked at Obama and McCain, and thought Obama would be better is something far worse than Obama himself.
I've got four years," the new president told Lauer then. "A year from now I think people are going to see that we're starting to make some progress, but there's going to be some pain out there. If I don't have this done in three years, than this is going to be a one-term proposition."
Maybe Clinton was taking a shot at Obama. Who was it that said Obama was "magic"?
If Romney had said this, the MSM would be all over him.
Of course, their sound bite answer is: "tax the rich. That'll fix the problem."
Now the bent one tells us...
Slick Willy you blue dress masturbator - here's the way I remember it:
The market fell 1500 points just after obama's election. I was able to recoup 16% through December in my portfolio.
Then the attacks began.
First came the banks. In January Obama's incoming administration officials were talking nationalization. Bank stocks collapsed.
Then came the energy companies. Obama himself started chastise the oil companies, appeasing the green companies (little did we know where our money was going). Oil company stocks collapsed.
Then came the healthcare companies. Obamacare front and center by mid-February. Healthcare and pharmaceuticals stocks collapsed.
What went up in the wake of his election? Government debt of course. How coincidental.
Ronald Reagan did!!!
He did, but it took a couple of hard years (and bad polls) before his efforts bore fruit. Romney will have at least as much trouble as Reagan did.
And you would not, even if he released 10 years of tax returns and you know it. Romney didn't take a normal salary as governor as head of the Olympics.
What would he be interested in? Seriously!
The former president, who is hosting his annual Clinton Global Initiative conference beginning Sunday, said that the Republicans "militant anti-government" approach will not benefit the economy.
There is "no evidence" that Mitt Romney's "militant anti-government approach will work," Mr. Clinton said.
Notice the repetition from CBS to ensure the propaganda line sinks in: Romney is MILITANT and ANTI.
To a generation Clinton is a genius, an economic miracle worker. He's telling them "no one could fix this" and there's no one around of similar stature to defend Reagan's record. The Bush's can't; they're brand is tainted and Reagan's passed on.
The press could offer counterpoint to Clinton but obviously won't. They love Obama. They love Clinton. It's only their job to "fact check and "challenge" Republicans.
The education establishment is in the tank for the Democrats; liberal teachers have no motive to show what Reagan accomplished.
Republicans and Conservatives have been killed themselves by not learning from the Jews. As Michael Medved put it, the reason Jews work hard to get into certain positions is for preservation. No Republican in the classroom? How will students know what a Republican is like? They'll believe the media and the liberals that formed their worldview.
Homosexuals know this which is why they made an effort to be highly visible.
Freepers need to encourage their conservative children and grandchildren to get into education, to go into media jobs.
they're = their
Two words, Slickmeister.
Ronald. Reagan.
Bush did it in 4 years, too.
It was the switch of Congress to the Democrats in 2007 that torpedoed his second term.
Unfortunately, not true. Bush's second term was undone by the inevitable popping of the unprecedented housing bubble of his first term. He shared responsibility for that bubble - he and Rove - due to their policy of marketing home loans to poor people who couldn't pay them. Unless we admit that Bush was a liberal, and his liberal policies ran us into the ditch, we'll never be able to market conservatism to the American people. Obama is blaming Bush - but he won't admit that Bush's policies were liberal like Obama's. We have to drive that home, or we have no honest way to answer Obama.

I have some Mac RAM at school that is not being used. It has never been opened before, and one of the PC's needs a little extra. Will putting Mac RAM in be an issue? The RAM also is not labelled, how can I tell the speeds of it?
I don't see why it wouldn't work. IF the speeds (e.g. 1066, 1600, 800, etc) and the type of RAM (DDR1, DDR2, DDR3) is the same on both computers, it should work. It should say on the package of the RAM what the MHz (speed) or the RAM is and the type of RAM it is. If not, it should say on one side of the actual stick of RAM. It is very clearly printed on the stick of RAM, but if it is like in this case, and you have this RAM working in a computer, run CPU Z to figure out what type of RAM it is. Other than those way of identifying it, it will be weird...
One big thing to note here is that modern Macs (with the exception of the Mac Pro) take SO-DIMM (laptop memory) rather than DIMM as you'll find in PCs (this is just a space-saving move on Apple's part). This means that the RAM is not usable in most desktop PCs, with very few exceptions. This is just because of a form-factor mismatch, it's the same technology but in a different physical package than desktop PC motherboards accept. It will be usable in most laptops.
Note that the Mac Pro takes RAM in a full-size DIMM package, but requires "fully buffered" FB-DIMMs. FB-DIMMs offer better memory density but require more expensive modules and controllers. So these RAM modules are only usable in other machines that expect FB-DIMMs, typically Xeon architecture servers.
