There is no better way to make a federal law unpopular than to have Congress exempt itself from its provisions. No wonder then reports that Congress has exempted themselves and their staffs from the Affordable Care Act - Obamacare - is further eroding support for the law aimed at making sure all Americans have access to health care insurance.
However, the claim, while constructed on some shred of truth, is false. It is symbolic of what is wrong with Washington. It is a strategy meant to confuse and divert attention from the real issue. It is a substitute for engaging in genuine debate. The intent is to anger, rather than inform the public.
It is also perhaps the last resort of a cohort of Republicans in Congress who are moving toward the unprecedented step of trying to force the repeal of an enacted law by threatening to shut down the government or take the United States into default or both.
In other words, it is an act of blackmail. Agree to defund the Affordable Care Act or face the prospects of a government shutdown and a default that shakes the markets and damages the economy.
Sensible Republicans know this will not work. They recognize the ransom will not be paid. President Obama and the Democrats, who control the Senate, will not surrender on the president's signature piece of legislation. Republicans will rightfully end up with the blame if these tactics force a crisis.
So having botched the politics, Republicans turn to the canard that Congress is exempting itself. No less than the Wall Street Journal, recognizing the shutdown-government strategy amounts to a circular firing squad, urged on its editorial pages that the GOP refocus on the congressional "carve-out."
How did things get to this confused point? They got here because a Republican senator baited Democrats with a politically motivated amendment. During the health care debate back in 2009, Iowa Republican Sen. Chuck Grassley offered an amendment that congressional representatives and their staffs would have to get their insurance through the health insurance exchanges.
This made little sense because the intent of the exchanges is to provide a means for individuals and small companies to access affordable health insurance. Larger employers who provide health insurance and their workers will not participate.
The Federal Employees Health Benefits Program covers lawmakers and their staffs. There is no reason for them to be part of the exchange, but for the Grassley amendment. His expectation was that Democrats would oppose the amendment, giving Republicans a chance to make the charge of refusing to treat themselves and their staffs the same as anyone else.
However, the Democrats called his bluff and enacted it.
This brings us to the present discussion. The exchanges are readying to open. Barring a change, Congressmen and staff workers will utilize the exchanges to purchase insurance. Yet what about the $5,000 to $11,000 annually the government contributes to their health insurance premiums? Do they lose those because they have to utilize the exchanges, unlike workers for any other large employers?
The Office of Personnel Management, which administers the federal insurance program, said no, ruling that the federal government should continue to make contributions toward the premiums of lawmakers and their staffs on the exchanges.
This is the "special treatment," the "exemption" that is the focus of the latest attacks. It ignores the fact that because of political game playing the law is forcing congressional staff workers and their families onto the exchanges, unlike all other workers in similar situations. They will keep the premium subsidies but could well end up with inferior plans.
There is no exemption, but that is not likely to stop the political attacks or the myth.

When Jacob Florer picked CrossFit as his way to wellness nearly 3 1/2 years ago, I bet no one - not even he - could have predicted his future with the sport.
In a most unlikely circumstance, he read a Facebook post by now co-owner Michael Haning that not only caught his attention, but indefinitely kept it. CrossFit 806 at the time was only an idea. Jacob started his journey in a garage with Michael Haning and another now co-owner, Kyle Cato.
Those pioneers of CF 806 probably never could have foreseen Jacob, then almost 300 pounds, where he is today. After some grueling first WOD (workouts of the day) and being CF 806's very first member, Jacob has surpassed his fairytale CrossFit dream in more way than one.
Fast-forward more than three years; Jacob is now engaged to a fellow CrossFitter, Cherylle Henkel, who has an astounding story of her own. Together, they are CF 806's sweet & strong bride & groom to-be! I believe there is power and motivation in having a friend, sibling, spouse or whoever with whom to work out. I also believe this couple is a great example of how fitness can bring people together and help them grow.
Whoever first said "a couple that CrossFits together stays together" must be talking about Jacob and Cherylle!
Jacob and Cherylle first caught my eye by being out-of-their-way friendly when I began CrossFit. They both are energetic, dedicated members who really set a good example for a newbie like me. The way CF has brought them together, and made them stronger individually deserves some attention and recognition!
Getting to know them a little more has been fun and humorous. The way they answered my questions is with grace, dignity, honesty, and a profound sense of humor! They both started without a clue as to what they were getting into, and their dedication to this sport, their health, mind and body is simply amazing to me.
Here's a glimpse of who these great people are as they describe their journey through CrossFit, starting with Jacob:
KD: What have you gotten most out of by joining CrossFit?
JF: I got my life back! Before CF, I was overweight. I didn't have any self-confidence. I stayed at home and didn't get out and enjoy life. Now, I'm back to my fighting weight, got engaged and have a whole new group of great people I'm proud to call my friends.
KD: What were your initial goals when starting CrossFit, and how have you progressed since?
JF: My initial goal was to lose weight and get back in shape. I accomplished that and so much more. I realized there was an athlete inside me that I thought had left me years ago. Now I've awoken a beast that cannot be caged again! I've done a few different CF competitions, a couple that I've won or placed highly in. My future goals are to keep up my training and maybe enter a few more competitions down the road.
KD: How has having someone to work out with helped you stay motivated?
JF: Having someone to go to CF with is an excellent blessing to have. We keep each other accountable in our WODs and our eating habits. We both know we will always have someone to cheer us on when the going gets tough.
KD: How has CF 806 affected your life?
JF: My health has been the most positive change that CF has had on my life. I was a heart attack waiting to happen before CF 806. I've lost around 100 pounds, got my diet on the right track and I plan to keep it that way for the rest of my life. It helped me outside the gym by making me more motivated at work. I don't feel tired before the end of the workday and I feel like I can get more done.
KD: Describe the atmosphere of CrossFit 806 to someone who has never been to the gym
JF: The atmosphere at CF 806 is always welcoming to a new member. The reason for that is we've all been in that new person's shoes. It's scary to go to a new environment with people you don't know, and trying a workout that you think may be too hard for you. When you first walk in, everyone will introduce themselves and make you feel welcome. Then, we start by stretching together and going over the WOD. That's when a newbie can breathe a sigh of relief because that's when they find out the workout can be scaled to their fitness level. Even the best person at our gym started out not really knowing if they were going to be able to finish that first WOD. I didn't finish the first two I did, I puked!
KD: Why did you choose to propose to Cherylle at CrossFit 806?
JF: I decided to propose to my pretty-girl at CF 806 because that was the place we met. We probably wouldn't have met if it wasn't for CF 806. Also, It was Cherylle's 30th birthday and the coaches were doing a special birthday WOD for her that day. I knew about it in advance, so I got with the coaches and planned the whole thing out. CF 806 is also our favorite place to be, so it was the best place I could think of to ask the woman I want to spend the rest of my life with if she would be my wife.
Now here is a description of Cherylle's experience:
KD: How and when did you decide to start CrossFit?
CH: I started CrossFit February 2011, and my life was forever changed! I had gone on a 4-mile run at wildcat bluff with a friend and she suggested we go the grand opening of CrossFit 806 (because of the free snacks and T-shirts provided). I started to run and worked my way up to complete 5K's and 10K races, I felt like I was in the best shape of my life! It was a great surprise that instead of a free snack and T shirt at the grand opening, I got my butt kicked by a seven minute wall ball and burpee workout! That was the longest seven minutes of my life! I remember laying on the floor of the gym when I finished my seven minutes of hell and thinking, "Wow. Sign me up!"
KD: What is your favorite part about being a CrossFit athlete?
CH: Plain and simple, I love who I am in CrossFit. Through this sport, I have found that indeed I am an athlete! I love that any person regardless of age, race, weight or athletic background (or lack thereof) can walk in our front doors and do the same workout as the most experienced members. I love how CrossFit is so diverse, you can always have a goal in your practice. Whether you want to get your first muscle-up or run a 400 meter distance without walking, there is always a challenge. I also love the community. The people I work out with have become family. They've seen me at my worst; both physically and emotionally and encouraged me every step of the way! There is a mental dynamic to CrossFit, and that is where I have received the most beneficial change. CrossFit taught me to believe in myself, it taught me that I am a lot stronger than the overweight sad little Fourth grader sitting in a corner during PE no one wanted to hang with. Who knew I'd receive peace about being heavy my whole life in my 30's? Crazy huh?
KD: What were some of your fitness goals and accomplishments since joining CrossFit 806?
CH: One of my first goals was to squat correctly. Michael Haning had me in a band doing squat tests weekly and I am forever grateful for that proper instruction. Since then, I have completed two half marathons and just completed my first full marathon for my 30th birthday! I have also competed in a few CrossFit competitions and I NEVER thought of myself as competitor material!
KD: How has having someone to work out with helped you?
CH: Having a partner-in-crime at CrossFit is priceless. Jacob and I have a profound love for one another, as well as CrossFit 806. It has been such a joy watching each other attain goals and get PR's. Jacob usually completes his WOD a lot faster than I, but I couldn't be happier every time I see him finish. It's awesome to share a passion and excitement for CrossFit, fitness, and over-all health. We both love watching some of our "heroes" lift heavy weight! Watching CrossFitters on YouTube and Facebook is a common occurrence at our dinner table! I look forward to 50 more years of Crossfitting by Jacob's side.
Jacob and Cherylle are a true love story not only in their commitment to one another, but to their commitment to CrossFit and their health. I hope this short introduction to who they are helps inspire others to try something new!
You never know what greatness lies ahead unless you step out of your box and explore!

Frankfurt, Germany -- German scientists say they've discovered human brains have the ability to be energy efficient.
Scientists said brain cells generate and propagate nerve impulses by controlling the flow of sodium and potassium ions -- an action requiring energy. The amount of energy was previously estimated using a giant nerve cell from a squid.
But now a study by researchers at the Max Planck Institute for Brain Research in Frankfurt, Germany, shows squid cell studies overestimated the amount of energy necessary to generate an action potential by nearly a factor of four. That, said the researchers, suggests human brains also have the same potential to be energy efficient.

VOTD: Echoes of the Past: The Visual Symmetry of 'Indiana Jones'
Posted on Thursday, September 10th, 2015 by Ethan Anderton
Earlier this week we highlighted a video called Star Wars Poetry, which took a look at the visual symmetry between the original Star Wars trilogy and the more recent prequel trilogy. When comparing the two sets of films, some striking similarities in shot composition arose, showing that George Lucas wasn't completely off his rocker for the prequels.
Now the same creator of that video, Pablo Fernandez, has done the same thing with another trademark George Lucas creation: Indiana Jones. This time the video compares Indiana Jones visual symmetry from the original trilogy of adventure films to the frequently panned, outcast sequel Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull, all directed by Steven Spielberg.

In this extraordinary third and final work in the Second DemonWars Saga, R. A. Salvatore weaves a diverse tapestry of characters and events from all the novels of the DemonWars Saga into an epic, unforgettable conclusion. Casting his inimitable spell of the human and supernatural, love and war, faith and faithlessness, Salvatore's crowning work is centered on a dark young king, driven by a quest to remake humankind.
In Honce-the-Bear, King Aydrian Boudabras wakes in a cold sweat, his conscience haunted by those he has killed to garner power, including the rightful king before him, Danube, his mother's husband. Now Aydrian is preparing his armies for war, forging loyalties, playing one adversary against the other, and giving those around him barely a glimpse of his remarkable powers. Even Adyrian does not fully understand what drives his ambition, the guiding voices he first heard from the shadow of Oracle, or the truth of his birth in the elven land—before it was stained and mortally threatened by the demon dactyl.
Yet in the neighboring Behren, the evil Yatol Bardoh is unleashing a war engine of his own, using armies of mercenaries and horrific tactics to bring down the walls of Jacintha and to drive a ferocious dragon from the city of Dharyan.
Between these two men, an explosive chain of events has been set into motion. Refugees flood the roads and valleys, alliances are formed and broken, navies clash at sea, and assassins seek their moment to strike. With Aydrian's power and popularity turning into an avalanche, and the courageous Brynn Dharielle valiantly standing in the way of the Yatol Bardoh, the great players in the DemonWars Saga will unite and clash on a single, magnificent stage.
But as the lands run with blood, there are no adversaries like a mother and her long-lost son. For Jilseponie, once queen of Honce-the-Bear, has discovered the truth of her son Aydrian's birth. And now she becomes the only mortal on earth with magic enough to stop her own son—by any means necessary—from his cataclysmic quest. . . .
About the Author
R.A. Salvatore was born in Massachusetts in 1959. His love affair with fantasy, and with literature in general, began during his sophomore year of college when he was given a copy of J.R.R. Tolkien s The Lord of the Rings as a Christmas gift. He promptly changed his major from computer science to journalism. He received a Bachelor of Science Degree in Communications in 1981, then returned for the degree he always cherished, the Bachelor of Arts in English. He began writing seriously in 1982, penning the manuscript that would become Echoes of the Fourth Magic. His first published novel was The Crystal Shard from TSR in 1988 and he is still best known as the creator of the dark elf Drizzt, one of fantasy s most beloved characters. His novel The Silent Blade won the Origins Award, and in the fall of 1997, his letters, manuscripts, and other professional papers were donated to the R.A. Salvatore Library at his alma mater, Fitchburg State College in Fitchburg, Massachusetts.

Financial Audit:
Office of Financial Stability (Troubled Asset Relief Program) Fiscal Years 2010 and 2009 Financial Statements
GAO-11-174: Published: Nov 15, 2010. Publicly Released: Nov 15, 2010.

Office of Public Affairs
(202) 512-4800
On October 3, 2008, the Emergency Economic Stabilization Act of 2008 (EESA) was signed into law. EESA authorized the Secretary of the Treasury to implement the Troubled Asset Relief Program (TARP) and established the Office of Financial Stability (OFS) within the Department of the Treasury (Treasury) to do so. EESA requires the annual preparation of financial statements for TARP, and further requires GAO to audit these statements. GAO audited OFS's fiscal years 2010 and 2009 financial statements for TARP to determine whether, in all material respects, (1) the financial statements were fairly stated, and (2) OFS management maintained effective internal control over financial reporting. GAO also tested OFS's compliance with selected provisions of laws and regulations. In commenting on a draft of this report, the Acting Assistant Secretary, Office of Financial Stability, stated OFS concurred with the significant deficiency in its internal control over financial reporting that GAO identified. He also stated that OFS is committed to correcting the deficiency.
In GAO's opinion, OFS's fiscal years 2010 and 2009 financial statements for TARP are fairly presented in all material respects. GAO also concluded that, although internal controls could be improved, OFS maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of September 30, 2010. GAO found no reportable noncompliance in fiscal year 2010 with the provisions of laws and regulations it tested. As of September 30, 2010 and 2009, net assets related to TARP direct loans, equity investments, and asset guarantee program had an estimated value of about $145.5 billion and $239.7 billion, respectively. In addition, for fiscal years 2010 and 2009, OFS reported an estimated subsidy income of $24.2 billion and subsidy cost of $41.4 billion, respectively related to its direct loans, equity investments, and asset guarantee program and net income of $23.1 billion and net cost of $41.6 billion, respectively for TARP. The estimated net cost of TARP transactions from inception through September 30, 2010, was $18.5 billion. In valuing TARP direct loans, equity investments, and asset guarantee program, OFS management considered and selected assumptions and data that it believed provided a reasonable basis for the estimated subsidy costs (income) reported in the financial statements; however, these assumptions and estimates are inherently subject to substantial uncertainty arising from the likelihood of future changes in general economic, regulatory, and market conditions. The estimates have an added uncertainty arising from the uniqueness of transactions for the multiple TARP initiatives and the lack of historical information and program experience upon which to base the estimates. In addition, there are significant uncertainties related to the potential effect of proposed transactions, such as the restructuring of American International Group, Inc., on the amounts that OFS will realize from its investments. As such, there will be differences between the net estimated values of the direct loans, equity investments, and asset guarantee program, and the amounts that OFS will ultimately realize from these assets, and such differences may be material. These differences will also affect the ultimate cost of TARP to the taxpayer. During fiscal year 2010, OFS sufficiently addressed the issues that resulted in a significant deficiency in fiscal year 2009 regarding OFS's verification procedures over the data used for asset valuations such that we no longer consider this to be a significant deficiency as of September 30, 2010. In addition, OFS addressed many of the issues related to the other significant deficiency we reported for fiscal year 2009 concerning its accounting and financial reporting processes. However, the remaining control issues along with other control deficiencies in this area that we identified in fiscal year 2010 collectively represent a continuing significant deficiency in OFS's internal control over its accounting and financial reporting processes. While this deficiency is not considered a material weakness, it merits management's attention. We will be separately reporting to OFS on additional details regarding this significant deficiency along with recommendations for corrective actions.

Pacific Investment Management Co.'s Bill Gross raised the percentage of Treasurys and other U.S. government-related debt in his flagship fund in October after the Federal Reserve unexpectedly maintained its bond purchases.
The proportion of U.S. government and related debt in the $248 billion Total Return Fund climbed to 37 percent from 35 percent the prior month, data on Pimco's website show. Mortgage debt fell to 34 percent from 36 percent. The Newport Beach, California-based company doesn't comment directly on monthly changes in holdings or specific types of securities within a market sector.
Gross has been recommending that investors purchase shorter-term Treasurys as the Fed weighs tapering its bond buying under the quantitative-easing stimulus strategy and the market underestimates how long it will then take the central bank to begin raising interest rates.
U.S. credit, which includes investment-grade and high-yield securities, rose to 10 percent from 9 percent. The category was previously separated into two sectors called investment grade and high yield.
The Total Return Fund's emerging-market debt holding was at 6 percent, the same as in September.
Over the past five years, the Total Return Fund has returned 7.66 percent, outperforming 70 percent of competitors. It gained 0.36 percent over the past month, outperforming 71 percent of its peers, according to data compiled by Bloomberg.
The fund's government and Treasury debt category includes holdings of U.S. Treasury notes, bonds, agency debt, interest-rate swaps and inflation-protected securities.

By Staff Sgt. Tiffany EvansOctober 23, 2010
CRYSTAL CITY, Va. (Oct. 22, 2010) - U.S. Army Forces Command (FORSCOM) hosted the second day of its third annual Family Readiness Group (FRG) Training Symposium Oct. 22 at the Hyatt Hotel by focusing on Comprehensive Soldier Fitness.
The annual training event attracted 470 FRG leaders from Army units nationwide this year.
"Physical, spiritual, emotional, family and social fitness are the five domains comprising Comprehensive Soldier Fitness (CSF)," said Col. Jeffery Short, medical director at the Comprehensive Soldier Fitness Directorate. "CSF takes these domains together to improve them proactively in our Soldiers, family members and civilians."
There are four lines of effort the Chief of Staff of the Army wanted the CSF staff to develop. One was to come up with a fitness test for the other domains of fitness besides physical. That is the online global assessment tool, which is an on-line survey Soldiers take and Family members can take, too if they can access Army Knowledge Online, said Short.
If the questions on the survey are answered honestly, it will give a person a relative fitness level in these areas.
"Another line of effort is online training modules that are called 'Comprehensive Resilience Modules' and we're developing them through several large contracts," said Short. "These are modules that are available on the CSF website, that are designed to improve fitness levels in those domains. The end goal after taking the global assessment tool is that a person will be led to the modules that will help improve their levels of fitness in the various domains."
At the moment, there are only about 25 modules, but more are constantly being made.
"The third line is that the Army Chief of Staff wants us to put resiliency training in all of our schools, so if we go to basic training, Basic Officer Leader Course, Warrior Leader Course or any course we do in [the Training and Doctrine Command], we should be getting resiliency training," Short said. "The last one, the one we are going to focus on here today, is the Master Resiliency Trainer Program."
What that is in the Army Chief of Staff's mind is that we train the trainers. For example, Soldiers and civilians from a particular post, unit and brigade get trained up on resiliency skills. Then, they are trained in how to teach them. That way, they can then go back to their post or unit qualified to teach some of these skills, said Short.
The FRG leaders only covered a few of the skills, so they could see what the training has to offer the FRGs and especially their Soldiers. Short said, the Army Chief of Staff wants to get MRTs (Master Resiliency Trainers) into the brigades, battalions and to Army Community Service Army-wide. At the moment, a majority of posts should have at least one MRT located at ACS.
"Today we're presenting for the FRG leaders here at AUSA to give them a feel for CSF program and the resiliency training that is available to them back at their bases," Short said. "So that when they go back to their bases, they can get the full-blown course taught to them by the master resilience trainer there. This particular discussion that we're having is brand new, we just tailored this specifically for these FRG leaders, and the hope is that they get sort of a feeling for the concepts."
CSF is a structured, long-term training program to enhance performance and improve resiliency for Soldiers, Family members, and Army civilians and has been one of the Army Chief of Staff's priorities for the past year and a half, Short said. The Army is developing the program to provide examples that will hit home with each demographic whether a Soldier, Family member or Army civilian employee. Not just useful for spouses, CSF is also useful for any Soldier whose Family members are 16 or older and for civilians who work in government offices.
"This is not rocket science. These are basic life skills, coping skills that are not hard to pick up. We're just putting names to things that a lot of us are already doing," Short said. "When I was a commander and in charge of the FRG for my unit, I would have loved to have been able to provide this sort of training at my FRG meetings. It's important for the FRG Leaders to go back and tell their commanders, 'We see the value in this, and we would like our Family members to get this training.'"
Sgt . 1st Class Chris Anderson, Army National Guard comprehensive Soldier Fitness Program Manager, shared how this training helped him get through a recent hard time.
"About three weeks ago, my father killed himself. Before this course, obviously, as an infantry Soldier and a drill sergeant, you kind of keep those things inside," Anderson said. Normally, I would just shut up; you know, keep to myself close up.
"So I rushed home, and all I could think about was everyone else. I didn't really take time to think how I felt until it was all done. Then, it really hit me hard for about three days, and I started catastrophising. I couldn't control my own thoughts, so I actually ... for the first time ... used what I learned here to go get help."
Anderson explained how he got counseling, so that he could come back to work. "It took me about two weeks worth of counseling, but now I'm back to work," he said.
Anderson said that after 15 years in the Army, it was hard for him to sit there and talk about how he had to ask for help and see a counselor, but by using the skills he learned through the MRT program, he was able to realize his life was getting out of control.
"My Family life was literally (being affected), my own spouse and kids (were impacted). I was taking my frustrations out on them, and it didn't have anything to do with them," Anderson said. However, with these MRT skills - single, married, family, wife, husband, mother, father - can all use these skills to identify issues and take positive steps to find help.
"Speak to the person using communication to get them to open up enough to realize they do need help, and that is what this is all about; get help and get back in the fight. Not to fight the war, but the everyday fight."
Single Soldier's parents, siblings or significant others can get help online the same as spouses and Army civilians to take the assessments and learn about CSF. The website is http://www.army.mil.csf. Or, they may also go to ACS to take classes.

Last week everything was working fine. However, today, I went to upload (via most recent version of FileZilla) a file for a friend to download but he told me the link resulted in the WordPress 404 page. Tried it myself, and got the same. Thinking I mistyped, I renamed the file several times until it was just a.jpg. Still no luck!
The file above it, 1.gif, had been in there previously and loaded up just fine. I removed it and reuploaded it, and now receive a 404 error from it, as well.
I then uploaded a theme folder, and found WordPress didn't see the new folder.
I deleted the .htaccess file, nothing. (Reuploaded it, however.) I tried the "Save Changes" in the Permalinks section trick, nothing. Updated WordPress to the newest version, nothing.
I have found that I can use WordPress's uploader to upload files for posts, and that works just fine. I can navigate directly to the .jpg file and it loads outside of the main WP site, as well. Given this, I feel it's a WP issue.
I'm really lost at what to do or try, so any help is appreciated!
Edit: I changed the Permalink structure to the base ?p=123 setup. And now I get the base server 404 page outside of WP. And if I right-click and save the link, it will download but cannot be opened.

I have a bunch of Xvid files that each have an audio stream that I do not want. How can I strip the audio track I don't want using the Linux command line?
I don't need the whole script (loop), just what command I would use to process each avi file individually (unless the cmd itself has batch modification built into it).
I don't believe the file is in an mkv container, as mkvinfo doesn't find anything. Here is part of mplayer's output (thanks ~quack):

Johnny Jalapeno's '8 Mexicans and a Bull' Taco Bake
Total Time
Prep 15 mins
Cook 25 mins
In Spain, they have the annual 'Running of the Bulls' where they let the bulls chase the townsfolk thru the streets before the bullfight. Well, in Mexico where Johnny grew up, he was chased by 8 mexicans for talking bull! (lol). Here's Johnny's adaption of a Kraft classic. Enjoy. :)
Ingredients Nutrition
- 1 (14 ounce) package Mac n' Cheese Deluxe, dinner mix (Kraft)
- 1 lb ground beef
- 1 1⁄4 ounces taco seasoning mix (one package)
- 3⁄4 cup sour cream
- 1⁄4 cup jalapeno, finely chopped
- 1 1⁄2 cups cheddar cheese, shredded (divided)
- 1⁄4 cup black olives, chopped
- 1 (15 ounce) can chili with beans (Chunky Brand)
- 1 cup taco flavor Doritos, crumbled
- 1 cup salsa (thick and chunky)
- sour cream (garnish)
- Preheat oven to 400°F While preparing mac and cheese as directed on package, heat ground beef in a skillet. Do not drain! Add taco seasoning mix. Simmer 3-4 minutes.
- When you are finished preparing the mac & cheese, add sour cream and stir well.
- In an 8-9" baking dish, spray nonstick cooking spray. Layer in this fashion: Macaroni mixture, meat mixture, jalepenos, 1 cup of the cheddar cheese, black olives, and finally the chili. Cover and bake 20 minutes.
- Uncover and add the crumbled tortilla chips, salsa and remaining cheddar cheese. Bake 5-10 more minutes until cheese is melted and bubbly. Serve with a dollop of sour cream.
Most Helpful
This is one of my new favorite suppers! I just used a regular box of macaroni because I didn't have the deluxe but it was very good. (I also did not have any olives) I would recommend this to anyone!
I just took this out of the oven and had to say that it smells so so good. I was a little unsure about it because of the mac and cheese but I think it's going to be a winner. Will update with stars and more info after super. UPDATE: This tasted as good as it smelled. We left the jalapeno's out because my two little ones were eating it and used chili with no beans for personal preference. I also used Nacho Cheese flavored Doritos because I couldn't find any taco flavored ones. The mac and cheese with the sour cream mixed in was the winning ingredient in this dish. Thanks so much for sharing. Made for PAC Fall/2008.
We liked this one. I also drained the meat and added water. I used a 15 oz can of chili, but otherwise followed the directions. I had the leftovers for lunch the next day and they were yummy too.

AUSTIN, Texas (AP) - In 84 e-mails, Gayle Magness ridiculed her ex-husband's weight, his sexual prowess and his new wife.
Magness and Raymond Coppock had divorced in 2004 -- after 23 years of marriage.
An attorney for Coppock says the ban on offensive language was added to the divorce settlement when the separation grew increasingly nasty.
The vitriol earned Magness an 18-month jail sentence. A Denton County judge ruled in 2007 that she'd violated a divorce decree that banned vulgar and offensive language between the ex-spouses.
Now, the Texas Supreme Court has voted unanimously to vacate the sentence. It ruled the judge couldn't enforce the contempt ruling with jail time.
The high court ruled the injunction against Magness was defective because it did not properly say that its prohibitions were mandatory. She could not be held in contempt and ordered jailed for violating an invalid order.

TIMEXwen i got this watch i noticed that the glass over the dial came off . I reported this issue to the flipkart team and they made a replacement for that watch.i can rate it 5 out of 5 . but when i started to wear this watch, in two weeks of time I could see that the strap off peeling and tearing off on either side off the hole.

Unbelievably good quality product at very low priceI always wanted Timex watch. But due to my budget concern, I went for this low priced watch and not any other Timex watch. But this watch is more than the price. When I bought this watch, the price was even less. The quality is good. The strap is made of leather. I liked the look a lot, simple and elegant look. The dial size is considerably suitable for any male hand.

New York Is Rooting for Boston, at Least for a While [Updated]
Even Yankee fans!
The dead rising from the grave. Dogs and cats living together. New Yorkers showing love for Boston. A day ago, all of these things would have been sure signs of the apocalypse. But since the terrorist attack at the Boston Marathon yesterday, New Yorkers — even diehard Yankee fans! — have found themselves in the alien position of rooting for Beantown.
A sign of support was in lights on the wall of the Brooklyn Academy of Music last night, courtesy of the Illuminator, "a political art project that emerged out of Occupy Wall Street."
It's in the pages of the Daily News today, where cartoonist Bill Bramhall drew a Yankee and a Red Sock in a somber embrace:
It's on Facebook, where an illustration of Yankee-Sox solidarity has been shared thousands of times:
It's all over Twitter:
i hate Boston. but in times like these we must love one another. outside of sports.#NYLOVESBOSTON— Jp (@publik_enemy1) April 16, 2013

I usually hate Boston because I'm a New Yorker but today my prayers go out to them. Hopefully everyone thats injury are ok. #PrayForBoston— DJ Chevy (@DJChevyNYC) April 15, 2013
Being a Yankee fan usually means you Hate Boston. But not today. Today we come together and pray for all those affected by the events today.— Swishalicious_33 (@teamSwisher_33) April 15, 2013
@15lasershow As a Yankee fan. I spent my life rooting against Boston. Today we all are Bostonians.give em sumthin to cheer for #15 #gosox— Mark Montz (@markmontz24) April 16, 2013
Even Yankee fans feel for Boston today, we now share a common pain. Pinstripes weep for you today #staystrong— Anthony DeFilippo (@AnthonyDeFilip2) April 16, 2013
All us NY Yankee fans are pouring our love out to Boston. You can count on it. @yankees— beckdiane (@beckdiane) April 16, 2013
@middlebrooks I am a huge #yankeesfan but you better believe I will be pulling for you guys for the sake of Boston.#prayforboston— Brian Brown (@bribrown013) April 16, 2013
And it's walking around in the form of Nikki Bizzoco's 2-year-old son, Dylan James.
My little Yankees fan is sending all of his love to Boston today. #prayforboston #staystrongboston… instagram.com/p/YKqyJUoIGZ/— Nikki Bizzoco (@NikBizzy) April 16, 2013
"My sister-in-law lives in Boston and we have been trading Yankees-Red Sox gag gifts for years," Bizzoco, a Yankee fan living in New Jersey, explains over e-mail. "Since my son was born, she has sent him a Red Sox item for every special occasion, even though she knows I typically will never dress him in them, to continue the tradition. So he has a closet full of Red Sox gear, and today, for the first time, it felt right to let him wear some of it in support of his aunt, her partner (a marathon runner), and their beloved city."
Someday — perhaps as soon as the start of the Knicks-Celtics first round playoff series this weekend! — New Yorkers and Bostonians will despise each other again for reasons that are not particularly rational. But for now, at least, everyone seems to understand how little the rivalry bullshit really matters.
Update, 12:47 p.m.: The flag of Boston is flying outside of New York's City Hall today:
Update 3:34 p.m.: Boston will be honored at Yankee Stadium tonight with a rendition of "Sweet Caroline," which has been played at Fenway during every Red Sox home game for over a decade.
Our thoughts are with the Boston community. Tonight there will be a special moment of silence & Fenway favorite Sweet Caroline @ end of 3rd.— New York Yankees (@Yankees) April 16, 2013
.@yankees Thank you! We appreciate your support.— Boston Red Sox (@RedSox) April 16, 2013
Update 5:00 p.m.: Yankee Stadium is going all-in on the Boston love.

CAPEHART: The GOP is grinding just about every sector of government to a halt. And it is doing it through a cynical combination of obstruction, saying no and failing to have viable alternative proposals worthy of national debate. Whatever political gains Republicans achieve in the short-term come at the long-term expense of the country. That's simply unacceptable. http://wapo.st/HZog0f

Shutdown Of National Parks Cost $30 Million In Just One State
The government shutdown closed national parks across the country, which came with a $30 million price tag for the state of Utah, according to the governor's chief economist.
The state is home to five national parks — Arches, Bryce Canyon, Canyonlands, Capitol Reef, and Zion — and as well as Monument Valley Navajo Tribal Park and other national monuments and recreation areas. While the state spent $166,700 a day during the shutdown to reopen eight of them, bringing in $3 million a day in economic benefits, the parks and businesses in and around them still took a toll. October visits to the state's national parks account for 10 percent of all visits during the year, and the parks bring in about $1 billion a year to state and local communities.
One example is Ruby's Inn, a hotel just outside Bryce Canyon. General Manager Lance Syrett told the Deseret News that it lost $2 million thanks to the shutdown given cancellations through the end of the year and early next year. He said that for every dollar spent on a hotel room, more than a dollar is also spent on meals and activities. The inn did make up about $500,000 over Columbus Day, however.
Across the country, the shutdown, which lasted 16 days, was estimated to cost communities near the parks $76 million a day in lost tourism.
The price tag for the entire shutdown has been estimated to be much higher thanks to the loss of paychecks from furloughed workers, stymied work for federal contractors and those who need services from the government, the loss of business and consumer confidence, and other effects. Standard & Poor's estimated the cost to come to $24 billion, nearly the same as funding Head Start, the Children's Health Insurance Program (CHIP, and the Women, Infants and Children (WIC) programs for a year. Together, the shutdown and debt ceiling fights cost an estimated 120,000 jobs in just two weeks.
Since 2010, Republicans have continually pushed the country to the edge of crisis to make their demands. That strategy has cost us nearly 1 million jobs and reduced GDP growth by 0.3 percent every year.

Step 6: Roll Out the Poly
Pour out a 1-inch-wide stripe of finish in line with the grain—only as much as you can spread in 10 minutes. Using a long-handled roller with a ¼-inch nap cover, roll out the finish with the grain, then across it. Overlap each pass and work quickly to keep a wet edge. After 10 minutes, brush more finish along the edge, then pour and roll again for 10 minutes. Continue until the floor is covered. Wait 3 hours before recoating and a week before putting back furniture.

NOT for seniors.
By Nita
from Ashland, Oregon
These elastic shoelaces were advertised for seniors. I found I could not stretch the shoe enough to get my foot into it when using the shoelaces. Great idea but did not work for me.
Great Product
By Sherbils
from Columbus OH
The shoe laces are extremely helpful. Due to nerve damage to my foot during hip replacement surgery, I have to wear a brace. The shoe laces allow me to put on my shoes without any help.

Too Short
By JEANBEANER
from Hyattsville , ME
They are for shoes with 4 holes as pictured. Would be great if they made longer ones for 6 holes.
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend
Elastic Shoe Laces
By Don't have any
from Miami Beach, FL
I like elastic shoe laces - what I received is what I already had - laces too short. I have other ones that were 30" and perfect but are in white and brown, I needed black.
So easy

Perfect for us who have to wear an in-shoes brace.
Too short
By Penny

Short enough for 4 holed shoes so not long enough for the reg walking shoe of today like Nikes sneakers
By Modern Maven
from Houston, TX
Seem sturdy and well made but are much to short to fit in adult women's shoes.

A new study by the Analysis Group details how the U.S. biopharmaceutical industry leads the world in development of new medicines, with over 300 new prescription medicines approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) over the past decade.
Alzheimer's disease is among the most devastating diseases anyone can face. Learn about how researchers are advancing treatment options and the challenges they face.

In 2013, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved 34 new medicines — down from a 15-year high of 44 in 2012. Of those, 27 were approved by the Center for Drug Evaluation and Research (CDER) and seven by the Center for Biologics Evaluation and Research (CBER).
Vaccine research and development is lengthy and risky. From discovery to license requires 10 to 15 years. Approximately one out of 10 vaccines that enter clinical development will reach the market.

Relation to AMG[edit]
Just realized that our article's basically a watered-down version of a biography of the band on Allmusic.comI'm kinda new at this, and I wasn't sure what to do, so I just added it as an external link. Chris25 10:09, 11 August 2006 (UTC)
Oliver Corbeil/Crowe[edit]
Think it's about time we clear something up: on their official website, it states Oliver's last name as Corbeil, but a lot of people seem convinced that it's Crowe. So...which is it? Chris25 05:19, 17 September 2006 (UTC)
He began using Corbeil after With Feathers came out. Until recently, he went by Crowe. When I met him (final leg of LWBYH tour) he was going by Crowe. I believe Crowe was the american version of his French name Corbeil.
Incorrect Statement[edit]
"Dave Hamelin has since replaced him on guitar and lead vocals, in addition to writing the songs on the new album" Dave wrote a majority of the songs on Logic Will Break Your Heart, so that was not new for Without Feathers. I'm going to take that part out. --Iancurtis 14:04, 3 May 2007 (UTC)Iancurtis
Fair use rationale for Image:LogicWillBreakYourHeart.jpg[edit]
Image:LogicWillBreakYourHeart.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template.

If there is other other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion.
