Notice: Free Republic has been in full rebellion mode since 2008 and will remain in full rebellion mode for the duration!
No more Doles!! No more McCains!! No more RINOS!!
Those who cannot stomach rebellion might as well start looking for a new home on the net!!
Those who have ignored my hundreds of posts on this crucial issue or who have doubted me these last three or four years might as well get used to it. FR will never support the abortionist, homosexualist, socialist, mandate loving, constitution trampling liar Mitt Romney.
In case you haven't noticed, a TEA Party rebellion is on and Free Republic signed on years ago. There is no turning back. No more crap from the GOP-e!! They've screwed us for the last time!! Karl Rove and Mitt Romney, et al, loathe conservatism and loathe the tea party and took it upon themselves to use their money and connections to destroy nearly every one of our conservative tea party candidates while pushing their big government RINOS. That makes them the enemy. I will not reward that betrayal by giving them my support or my vote.
FR is and will remain a pro-life, pro-limited government conservative site!!
We are beholden to NO ONE!! We bow to no kings!! We bow to NO RINOS!!
I'd rather fight and die like a man than bend over and be screwed by a RINO!! I refuse to kiss Karl Rove or Mitt Romney's rings!! They can kiss my rosy red ass instead!!
Long live the rebellion!!
Hope my message is clear.
Don't take this as endorsing Romney — I've already made clear I am not — but everybody on Free Republic needs to understand that this is a real concern.
Newt Gingrich is a techie. He does understand what is at stake with internet regulation, transferring the rules of broadcast media via frequency licensing (probably a legitimate necessity) over to the internet, rather than following a print journalism model of no regulation of the content of the public press apart from a libel lawsuit for actual falsehood being printed.
That's a big deal and those who don't follow the developing issues of internet law need to pay close attention to it.
What a sweet, insipid fantasy. Keep believing it, if it helps you sleep better.
I think you are being kind to say another 4 years of Obama gives us only 6 trillion more in debt, it will be far more than that. The guy can rule totally Unchained and he knows it. People will wish he was as "restrained" as he was in his 1st term if he wins a second term.
Crystal, Jim. Crystal.
Ill forward you contact information if you think you can do better.
Nah, it ain't my cup o' tea and I don't want to know you better.
I believe I'm watching a textbook example of how a RINO is made.
Only by abandoning all principle, can one logically conclude that electing Obama's near-identical twin makes any sense.
Turn in your conservative patriot card, and sign in at the RINO desk.
One of the only mistakes from the start of this rebellion is believing that the GOP-e would willingly sign onto the TEA Party philosophy. There is no mistake now that the RINO establishment must be wholly replaced, no matter how long, difficult, and impossible this task turns out to be. We no longer have an official Republican Party, it has been eaten hollow by maggots.
Yeah. I know. A lot of people don't pay that much attention to what's going on around them. They hear a few propaganda sound bites and take them as gospel truth - because they heard Karl Rove say Romney is the only one who can win!!
There's not much we can do about that. That doesn't mean we have to follow them. They have no idea where they're going.
Spare me your long winded fantasies and soap box nonsense.
Its going to be either mittens or obama no matter whether we like it or not. The many dreamboats came up short for whatever reason, blame Fox, RINO's, GOP-e, whatever. We have two people one of which will be potus.
Just do me a favor - along with everyone else staying home because of their purity tests - if Mittens loses by a tiny amount - please dont say a word when obama does all sorts of horrible stuff. At that point you have lost all credibility to complain about anything obama does.
And tell me what you think will change in 2016? So far according to many of the zealots on this site - ryan, toomey, rubio, are RINO's now too!
So tell me what miracle you think is going to happen in 2016? I think it will be the same no matter what - 'They are not conservative enough" will be tagged to everyone by those with completely unrealistic expectations.
It is what is is in November, I don't like it one bit - but geeez - OBAMA FOR FOUR MORE YEARS? NO FNG WAY!!!
Best post in the entire thread. You took the time to spell it all out and I concur with all of it. It seems FR is becoming more anti-Romney than anti-o bam a. There are more threads bashing Romney than o bam a. I just don't know what to think anymore so I mostly lurk once in a while.
As a fellow new poster to FR, I don't see where on earth you get the nerve to suggest that you are indispensable to this site. Your arrogance is breathtaking. I strongly suggest you get over yourself.
I think that can be said about democrats. I wouldn't exactly say the average Republican voter is too stupid to form their own opinions.
Ditto. This poster is going rogue.
And thank you.
My dh and I have been cutting back now for years, so we could be able to send our daughters to Christian school. This year, their tuition totals over a quarter of our salary, so it's not like I can give up a few lattes or trips for ice cream; we do that already.
But I will donate something. That's how much I believe in you, FR and flooding this nation with conservatism to counter the proliferation of cr@p called liberalism. I'm so sorry it can't be more.
No. Not stupid. Just too busy to pay close attention. Sound bites can be very powerful tools.
(Democrats vote themselves more of everyone elses money. That doesn't require any thought at all.)
I agree!! Romney isn't even the nominee yet and already FR is doing all the DNC's work by bashing Romney non-stop. I've been going to other sites that are still working their a$$es off to bash and expose o bama. Seriously, WTH? I really think the obots are ecstatic and have infiltrated FR.
You're missing the entire picture here. Romney has shown through his actual deeds, that there is very little daylight between him and Obama.
The initial mistake you're making, is in your base assumption that Romney is different from Obama in some substantial way. He is not.
Listen up: Choosing between Romney and Obama is a choice in name only - not in substance. Give him your vote, and you are choosing to enable the same evil that is now destroying our nation.
Clear as a bell, and that's why I'm here...
I do not consider it a mistake to hope we could fix the problem from within. This was a necessary step. In my opinion, those that want to return the party to its principles are those that realize that the next step is to allow the party to fail under the weight of its rot by no longer propping it up as a somewhat conservative less progressive alternative to progressives like we did with McCain.
It is time to call a spade a spade, a progressive a progressive, a commie a commie, a RINO a RINO.
Let them fail for supporting failure. Let them fail like they should fail by no longer allowing them to succeed. Only then can the party be restored.
Ping to comment #150.
Definitely not a throw away line!
We can rebel all we want, but as far as I can tell this election is turning out to be like every other election I can remember in my life ... a choice between the lesser of two evils.
Clearly, Romney is less evil than Obama. And a vote for a "3rd party" candidate might as well be a vote for Obama in practical terms.
So, I will vote for Romney. Not because I want to, but because I know 4 more years of Obama means we are finished as a nation I wish to call home.
No - I see the absolute destruction Obama has done and is doing, and has plans to do if somehow he gets re-elected.
That is not an endorsement of mittens!
Just like with many others doing the same thing as you're doing now you should just let me prattle on instead of telling me what I'm doing wrong.
Oops...I wasn't supposed to figure that out, was I?
Obama is a commie. I don't believe Romney is. Romney is obviously a capitalist. Obama is a spread the wealth guy. Most people in this election are voting on the economy. At least that's what the exit polls are telling us. How do you turn back after another 4 years of obama? He will have us so entrenched by then they'll be raising more than the rainbow flag in a war zone.
You mean, the BACKSTABBER?
The McCain/Palin ticket was up ++4 to 10 pts
in some polls, days prior to Election 2008.
So rather than helping the GOP, Romney and
TeamROMNEY and the RNME (Republican National Media Establishment)
decided to attack Gov. Palin to throw Election2008.
Romney, and the Van der Sloot RNME RINOs for Obama in 2008
Late in October, The American Spectator's The Prowler revealed:
"Former Mitt Romney presidential campaign staffers
have been involved in spreading anti-Palin spin to reporters, seeking to diminish her standing after the election.
'Sarah Palin is a lightweight, she won't be the first, not even the third, person people will think of when it comes to 2012,'
says one former Romney aide
'The only serious candidate ready to challenge to lead the Republican Party is Mitt Romney.
"Some former Romney aides were behind the recent leaks to media, including CNN, that Governor Sarah Palin was a 'diva' and was going off message intentionally."
The Palmetto Scoop reported: "One of the first stories to hit the national airwaves was
the claim of a major internal strife between close McCain aides and the folks handling his running mate Sarah Palin."
"Im told by very good sources that this was indeed the case and that a rift had developed, but it was between Palins people and the staffers brought on from the failed presidential campaign of former Gov. Mitt Romney, not McCain aides."
"The sources said nearly 80 percent of Romneys former staff was absorbed by McCain and these individuals were responsible for what amounts to a premeditated, last-minute sabotage of Palin."
aides loyal to Romney inside the McCain campaign, said The Scoop, reportedly saw
that Palin would be a serious contender for the Republican nomination in 2012 or 2016, which made her a threat to another presidential quest by Romney.
"These staffers are now out trying to finish her off .hoping it would ingratiate themselves with Mitt Romney."
"Who's the Palin Leaker from the McCain Campaign?
National Review Online The publication of a Vanity Fair profile of Sarah Palin
appears to have opened old wounds in the McCain campaign.
... the source of the Diva leak was Nicolle Wallaces husband."
"Peeking Out From the McCain Wreckage: Mitt Romney"
"Someone's got to say it: IS MITT ROMNEY RESPONSIBLE FOR OBAMA'S VICTORY?"
"Vanity: Team Romney Sabotaged Palin and Continuing to Do So?"
"Romney Supporters Trashing Palin"
"Romney advisors sniping at Palin?"
At least there are some people on my side.
I'm on your side as well.
RINOs will never get my vote.
How I wish we had spent the last 3 years holding McCain to his promises rather than watching O keep his.
That would make a good tagline if it would fit.
You may disagree all day long. I will not vote for a socialist, whether he sports a D or an R.
I held my nose for McCain. Never again. I have sent letters to GOP/RNC putting them on my own personal notuce, I'll not vote for their socialist candidates. May the GOP die a Whig-like death and a truer conservative party rise from that.
Some people simply aren't getting it, that a Romney election would truly move us back, not forward.
The GOP has engineered a remarkable lose-lose situation here. Obama wins, we lose because we have four more years of his socialist policies.
Romney wins? We lose, through his failed policies and confused governing - probably lose the WH after four years and many more disaffected voters who vow never to vote GOP again after seeing what they got with Romney.
All of these "lesser of two evils" voters aren't looking very far ahead. A Romney win might easily be the GREATER of two evils, given the damage and disrespect it could attach to the party.
Also: voting third party DOES make a difference. It builds strength and lends political capital to an emerging movement. I don't know which should be our choice, exactly, but strategically placed votes can make a difference at a bargaining table later.
A vote for a third party is not a "vote for Obama," it's a vote for a third party.
McCain not only didn't try, he basically campaigned FOR o bama. At this moment, I knew it was all over:
Oh, my. I had no idea we were in such august company.
By all means, please educate us. We are merely ignorant rubes
and could surely benefit from your PROFESSIONAL political insight.
They should be careful what they wish for.
A nation that consumes more than it produces will need be rebooted. There's only so much of everyone elses money to be had.
I would think that the other 15% wll be coming along later.
and the republicans will willing go hand in hand with the myth of mittens
Hmmmmm......How did the 2 progressives Kagan and the wise Latino get in there? surely the republicans didn't go along with them.
"Im going to vote for Romney assuming hes the candidate and Ill press people to support him instead of helping Obama get elected to a second term."
So, you admit you support a baby killer/enabler, government healthcare mandater, and gay marriage proponent. Why are you here, pretending to be a conservative?
"If Im zotted for that, so be it. It would be a bigger loss to FR to not have my 21 years of PROFESSIONAL political insight than it would for me not to have a place where Im afraid to post my point of view."
Please, head over to LiberalRepublic.com and let them know your impressive abortion-supporter credentials and you can post your amazing viewpoints there. If there isn't such a site, please create one so people can catch the pearls of wisdom as they fall from your lips.
I didn't even know you existed before today, so your insights haven't been that significant.
Obama's court appointees WILL be bad. Romney's court appointees MIGHT be bad
You think o bamas first 2 were far left, you haven't seen anything yet. wait until you see what he chooses when he doesn't have to worry about being re-elected. Hell, we may get him for life. He stacks SCOTUS and they find a president can be re-elected forever.
"It would be a bigger loss to FR to not have my 21 years of PROFESSIONAL political insight "
Thanks, but many of us here have more than 21 years of local political activism.
"Whatever Romney is, he isnt a Marxist and he most certainly does NOT hate the country! Sorry, but that notion is completely unhinged. Romeys a RINO, but he is not a Marxist."
ok... so he will actively aid the Marxists out of sheer incompetence.
Heh.. Id rather be able to place the blame and point the resulting rage/anger in the direction of the marxists instead of yet ANOTHER F'ing "incompetent" "republican"...
But.. We know its B.S. Romney and the other GOP-e are not incompetent... They are plain old run of the mill big government, statist Aholes. F'em... They will NOT get my vote or support.
Show me anywhere on this site I have ever promoted Romney.
What I was pointing out is that people here are saying they will never vote for Mitt yet they will vote for another guy who has stated if he was asked he'd be Romney's VP.
Be a knee-jerk asshole to someone else.
Thank you, Idaho_Cowboy , for helping to make my point.
Well ain't we the bee's knees...
Bet there won't be no pigeon poop on your statue when you're gone...
I'm going to go out on a tin foil limb but I want you to think about this for a minute. Newt stayed in despite all advice telling him to get out. Pretty strange isn't it.
Santorum backs out just as he was gaining the lead and the advantage due to his daughter's illness (who was sick before he decided to run yet he did so anyway). How convenient was that for Mittens and the GOP-e?! He's getting his backside handed to him and suddenly his "strongest" opponent bows out of the race.
IMO it looks like people were being set up to have nobody but Mittens yet Newt somehow managed early on to figure out, or was informed, what was going to happen and he stayed in the fight.
It smells to high heaven of manipulation, FRiend, with Mittens as the only choice left.
I hate being manipulated or herded and there is another choice.

Bargain of the week: Eurostar
Unless you have been living on Planet Tharg for the past 10 days, you will know that the new high-speed rail link from London to the Channel Tunnel has finally opened; Brussels Midi is accessible from St Pancras International in 111 minutes, and Paris Nord is only 2 hours 15 minutes away. What you are unlikely to know – because Eurostar has not publicised it – is that cheap one-way tickets are finally on offer.
For the first time in 13 years of trains between London and Europe, a legal alternative to high priced full-fare single tickets is available. Book online at www.eurostar.com, and you can find fares of £44, £110 cheaper than the previous lowest fare.
So travellers from Newcastle, for example, can opt to go out to Paris by train and fly back on easyJet. For a long weekend departing on Thursday 17 January, this whole itinerary is available for as little as £100: £11.50 from Newcastle to London King's Cross on a GNER web fare; £44 from the adjacent St Pancras International to Paris on Eurostar; and €64 (£45) for an easyJet flight from Paris Charles de Gaulle to Newcastle on the following Sunday, 20 January.
Podcast of the week: Something to Declare
Today The Independent Traveller gains an extra dimension with a new radio programme that brings the world to your ears. Something to Declare is a professionally produced show presented by Ben Ross of The Independent, with additional expertise from the insightful Frances Tuke of Abta. The programme hears advice from a wide range of travel industry professionals – plus a litany of grumbles from Simon Calder.
The pioneering first edition has been recorded at Stanfords, the world's biggest map and travel guide store. Among the topics: what are the bare essentials for the hike of a lifetime along the Inca Trail? Will the maiden OzBus departure from London to Sydney arrive at the Opera House as planned? And why is South Beach, Miami, the world capital of Art Deco?
The programme mixes destination reports with insider advice, and combines travel news with comment about the crucial issues in tourism – not forgetting "Dicky's Digits", playing the travel numbers game with industry godfather, Richard O'Connor.
As a half-hour travel show produced to the highest broadcast standards, Something to Declare is a first for the British newspaper industry. You can listen online or download the programme, free of charge, at www.independent.co.uk/sd.
Warning of the week: cabin baggage
This week the Transport Secretary, Ruth Kelly, said that the much-criticised "one-bag rule" on cabin baggage for airline passengers departing UK airports may soon be relaxed. But questions from travellers who have contacted The Independent Traveller suggest that there are a couple of common misconceptions about the announcement.
First, nothing will change before the New Year period the existing rule will stay in operation throughout Christmas and beyond; the earliest date for any change is 7 January next year.
Second, if and when the Government allows passengers to take more than one bag through security, individual airlines will continue to set their own rules – which may mean passengers are restricted to a single bag.Reuse content

Katherine Agius
Personal Development, Self-Esteem, Confidence
"When I engaged Katherine to coach my 12 year old daughter on effective communication, the outcomes we set out to achieve were clearer speech, better structured presentations, better pronunciation, and more confidence speaking in public and in social situations. However Katherine's coaching extended beyond the mere "tangible" aspects of speech to building self esteem, really understanding how my daughter's core needs were being fulfilled and how as a family we interacted with each other. This holistic approach has been invaluable, both for myself as a parent and for my daughter, as she steers through the teenage years. Katherine is able to build a fantastic rapport with her clients, whether they be 12 or 42 years old. Thank you Katherine for your outstanding professionalism and commitment." Anjalika Gunawardana, Sydney, May 2012
"I was feeling pretty frustrated before I met Katherine, because the same old stuff was happening, we had 3 sessions, and the last one was before a course I was attending, same anxieties and I had a major breakthrough, managed the course with more confidence and clarity, and light bulb moment when I acknowledged there were most of the room going through the same stuff. So thankyou Katherine, I really acknowledge you and thank you for all that." Jane Bennett, Homoeopath, Life Coach & NLP Practitioner, March 2012
"I was feeling pretty frustrated around my business as I was starting so many things and not getting anywhere with any of it. After only one session, Katherine really helped me to clarify and become aware of my behaviours that were getting in the way of my success in business and helped me create a new strategy to achieve my goals in such an easy way! It's amazing how easy it was afterward to see how I could achieve the things in my business that seemed so hard or unfamiliar before. Now the tasks in my business that were daunting I now do easily without a second thought! Thank you Katherine for enlightening me and helping me to kicking my goals!" Grace Vassallo, Renew Life Coaching, Melbourne, February 2012
"I reached a slow point where I was making little progress with my work and business. Since the coaching with Katherine I have become more free of my limiting beliefs around being good enough to succeed in my new goals. This has made me more confident and allowed me to progress in achieving my goals more rapidly. Katherine is a great coach and knows just the right questions to ask at the right time to get to keep me moving forward positively towards my goals and dreams. She has held me accountable for my progress ensuring that the only option is success in every area that I have chosen. I recommend Katherine as a coach to anyone that wants to stretch beyond their limits and achieve their goals and dreams." Mark Perre, Telstra Corporation, Sydney, December 2011
"Thank you Katherine for doing what no-one else has been able to do. After just one amazing session with you I was able to turn myself and the business around. Despite these tough economic times and whilst thousands of other businesses in our sector are closing we're booming. We're now more profitable than we have ever been. You have secured our future success and we developing our franchise model." Lesley Morgan-Wesson, IBI, November 2011
"The bottom line is Katherine is one of the best coaches around. Having been coached myself by Katherine I can honestly say her professionalism and approach to coaching is refreshing and cutting edge. Katherine has the ability to take the complicated and make it simple and provide the challenges and perspective needed to get to the next level. If you are ready to work for change I have no hesitation in recommending Katherine." Jet Xavier, Step Into Success, Sydney, September 2011
"I kept feeling that I was not using life to its full potential and somehow missing out. I knew I wanted that to change, but had no idea how. As a result of my life coaching, I now possess the tools to draw strength and confidence from past experiences. I see the positive outcomes that belief in myself and a positive attitude can bring. I now use it constantly in life from riding my mountain bike, to facing new challenges in business. I truly thank Katherine for facilitating and being so instrumental in the progress I have had. It has been a very joyous and fruitful experience and just the start of a very exciting and fun journey for me!" Tsalina Phang, WanGoDo, Singapore, April 2011
"Katherine I wanted you to know that you changed my life this weekend, the session you coached me had a powerful, emotional impact that came as a huge shock, I was not prepared to show such emotion and I trusted you alot more that I would ever had anticipated. You change my life and I'm very grateful thank-you very much. You are an amazing coach because to most people i'm bullet proof oxox" Natalie Luxford, Training Perfection, Sydney, January 2011
"Dear Katherine, Thank you so much for being a great mentor and coach. You were all things I could ask for as someone to show me who I need to be to 'step up' and be a great manager. Wish me luck in my new role!" Emma Dalton, Brisbane, May 2009

HMSA opening storefront in Hilo
By COLIN M. STEWART
Tribune-Herald staff writer
Hawaii Medical Service Association plans to open one of its new neighborhood centers in Hilo's Waiakea Center.
The move is part of a larger, statewide expansion into three new storefronts, including ones on Keeaumoku Street in Honolulu and at the Pearl City Gateway shopping center, said Elisa Yadao, a senior vice president with HMSA.
"The thought is that we're trying to be as responsive as we can to our consumers, and this is just one more channel we're using to reach out to people," she said Thursday.
The 3,000-square-foot storefront, located next door to Walgreens in the space formerly occupied by Down to Earth, will offer a wide range of customer services, Yadao said, including help purchasing plans, health coaching, bill paying, and other types of "face-to-face" customer service.
HMSA is investing about $500,000 in the neighborhood center, and an additional $1.5 million in the other two Oahu centers. All three will employ about 27 people, including eight in Hilo.
"Four of those positions will be filled by existing staff, and we'll be hiring four new people," Yadao said.
Work renovating the Waiakea Center building began in early July, and the new office is expected to open sometime in September, she added.
HMSA's current Hilo branch office, located at 670 Ponahawai St., will eventually shut down to the public, she said, once the new neighborhood center opens its doors. The Ponahawai building will continue to house HMSA's business office staff and other, behind-the-scenes workers until it moves into a new building currently under development in Keaau.
Yadao explained that HMSA has recognized that it must increase its customer service offerings as the public becomes better informed about their health care options, especially in light of health care reform.
"As people become more savvy as consumers, they have higher expectations across different lines about what kind of service they expect and deserve," she said. "We're trying to be responsive to that. We realize our business is changing and becoming more member oriented."
She added that the new office will help to handle an influx of newly insured people as a result of Obamacare and the newly launched Hawaii Health Connector — an online health insurance marketplace mandated by the Affordable Care Act that helps individuals and small businesses search for, compare and purchase health insurance plans that are available to them.
"At the very least, we're expecting to see in Hilo the kind of traffic that we've seen in our other offices with the opening of the Hawaii Health Connector and more people coming into the ranks of the insured," Yadao said. "The assumption is that more people are interested in their health care coverage, and the need has increased."
HMSA currently serves about 16,500 customers in East Hawaii, according to an HMSA spokeswoman. The insurer announced in March plans for a new, 20,000-square-foot building in Keaau, located at the corner of Old Volcano and Keaau-Pahoa roads. HMSA purchased the two-acre plot for just over $1 million from W.H. Shipman Ltd.
Construction on the building is anticipated to begin in August, with completion expected sometime in late 2014.
In addition to housing administrative and business office staff, the new building will also take on the staffs of two separate Hilo call centers that handle phone inquiries from customers.

"Butch" McDade, the group's drummer and second vocalist, was born in 1946 and was educated at the Marion Military Institute and the University of Tennessee. He decided to become a drummer after hearing a James Brown record, and made his debut while in the second grade, with a rhythm band.
By 1972, he had met the bass-player Jeff "Stick" Davis and Russell Smith, a vocalist and guitarist. They got a gig backing the singer-songwriter Jesse Winchester, who took a liking to two of Smith's compositions, "Third Rate Romance" and "The End is Not in Sight" and decided to include them on his album Learn to Love It (1974).
Winchester, in order to dodge his US draft, settled in Canada, and so touring opportunities were limited. McDade and Davis soon moved back to Nashville and hooked up again with Russell Smith who brought along a keyboard player, Billy Earheart III. With Barry Burton (guitar, mandolin) and James Hooker (keyboards), they became the Amazing Rhythm Aces.
Their fine musicianship and mix of country, rock, gospel and rhythm 'n' blues soon attracted record company interest and they signed to ABC Records. In 1975, they released their debut album, Stacked Deck. The smooth single "Third Rate Romance" attracted massive airplay and rose up the country charts before crossing over to the pop market and becoming a Top Fifteen hit.
The sextet never again equalled that success, although their second single, "Amazing Grace (Used to Be Her Favorite Song)", reached the country Top Ten. After five further albums (Toucan Do It Too, Burning the Ballroom Down, The Amazing Rhythm Aces and How the Hell Do You Spell Rhythum?), the group - often described as too rock for country and too country for rock - broke up in 1980.
"Back then, you couldn't make an album on your own, because of the technology. You had to have a big, hungry machine behind it because it was so expensive. Then you'd go out on the road and work yourself to death, and every dime you made went to pay back the machine. That's the main reason we split up: we were killing ourselves out there and not even earning a living," recalls Russell Smith.
Butch McDade kept busy, touring or recording with the likes of Leon Russell, Lonnie Mack, Roy Clark and Tanya Tucker, and also running a restaurant and working as a sports writer for his local paper.
By the mid-Nineties, fans were clamouring to get Amazing Rhythm Aces favourites on compact disc. Since their back catalogue was tied up in legal wranglings, the band decided to cut new versions of "Third Rate Romance", "King of the Cowboys" and McDade's poignant composition "Last Letter Home". The resulting collection, issued in 1994 on their own Breaker label and entitled Ride Again, sold so well in the US, Australia and New Zealand that the group began touring again.
Last year, they recorded Out of the Blue, an album of new material, including two excellent songs by McDade, "Oh, Lucky Me" and "Get Down", on which he sang lead. By the time the band took to the road earlier this year, McDade had been diagnosed with bladder cancer and did not join them on their first European trip. They received rave reviews for concerts in Switzerland, Ireland and Britain (at the Borderline, in London). Russell Smith said: "There was never a thought of naming a full-time replacement. People have always said there's something other than the musical nuts and bolts that makes the Aces special, and a whole lot of that was due to him. Every time he hit a drum, it sounded like he meant it."
David Hugh ("Butch") McDade, drummer, singer, songwriter: born Clarksdale, Missouri 24 February 1946; twice married (one son, one daughter); died Maryville, Tennessee 29 November 1998.

If you're anything like us, you spend hours each day not doing work because you get wrapped up in all the amazing short-form documentaries on Vimeo. It's incredible what can be captured in just a few minutes: the arc of a life, the growth of a business, the global impact of a simple idea. That's why we're thrilled to announce that we're partnering with GE and video publisher Cinelan to power Focus Forward — Short Films, Big Ideas, a new documentary series about people using technology and innovative thinking to change the world.
Focus Forward has asked some of the world's most celebrated documentary filmmakers ' including Morgan Spurlock, Jessica Yu, Stanley Nelson, Lixin Fan, Steve James, Joe Berlinger, Lucy Walker, and more ' to create 30 three-minute stories on everything from gene therapy to wireless technology to waste management. Films from the series will be premiered online and at festivals throughout the year. In fact, the first five Focus Forward films (alliteration is cool) just premiered at the 2012 Sundance Film Festival. Watch all five of them right now.
If you've got documentary chops, you can get involved in Focus Forward, too. The Focus Forward Filmmaker Challenge enables anyone to submit a three-minute story that embodies the Focus Forward ethos and compete for $200,000 in cash prizes — including a $100,000 Grand Prize. Submissions (which will be accepted right here on Vimeo) open in April during the Tribeca Film Festival. Learn more about the Challenge.
We're extremely proud to be involved in this project, and to provide video support for the whole Focus Forward initiative. We'll keep you updated as more films are released and deadlines draw nearer — until then, focus forward!

With regard to memory usage, it's hard for people to help unless you provide some numbers. What do you mean by MAX heap ?

Hello there. I'd like to express interest in writing for your organization. I am very interested in developing a relationship with you. Please let me know how I can truly connect with your organization.
Much Appreciated,
Brother Corness West is absolutely CORRECT about this weak, timid president that we have. And I am a black person and minister of the age of 77. But the thing that Brother West did not, and he and Brother Tavis have NOT, talked about is to point out, and say something about, are the Jews, and other whites, that are in complete control of President Obama, and really the ones that are in charge, and telling him everything that he says and does. And they need to be called out, and talked about. — Rev. George Brooks

When/Where is packet pick-up?
At St. John's Episcopal Church, E. Myrtle Street main entrance.
Friday March 17th 2017 from noon to 8pm. If you arrive early, please note that the doors won't open until noon.
Race Morning (3/18) from 7am-8:15am. The 10K kick-off is 8:30am.....and the 4K walkers are "released" a minute or two thereafter.2017
Can I walk the 10k road race?
Yes. Ideally, everyone who wants to participate in this race can and should do so. However, we will only have support from the police department (blocked roads, patrols, etc) for the first 90 minutes, after which you will have to move to the sidewalks and obey all traffic signs. Our dedicated volunteers will still be out on the course, looking out for your safety, until the last racer comes in!
We also have the Chasing Snakes 4k Fitness Walk/Fun Run, so that those who don't want to participate in the 10k road race, or wouldn't be able to finish in the allotted time, can still be involved in the day's events!
Are dogs allowed?
Yes, well behaved doggies are allowed on the 4K fitness walk.
Why Chasing Snakes?
Legend has it that in the 4th century, Saint Patrick cursed all of the venomous snakes in Ireland and drove them out into the sea where they drowned, never again to return to the isles' shore. For more St Patrick's Day lore, click here or here.
This is a charity race. Who is it supporting?
Proceeds support Family Promise of Greater Johnson City (formerly known as IHN), a network of churches and community agencies in the Johnson City area which provide support for homeless families with children.
Who is organizing this event?
A team of volunteers from St John's Episcopal Church make up the Chasing Snakes Committee and are organizing the event for the community. We have hired the State of Franklin Track Club to manage the event, and our 10k course is USATF certified (TN0879MS)
How can I help?
- We are currently looking for sponsorship on all levels. Please contact us for further information.
- We are in need of volunteers who can be there on Friday before race day and on Race Morning from 7:00am-10am, to help us set up, monitor the event and (of course) clean up after all the tired runners have gone home. Please email chasingsnakes at gmail.

Top Five Daughtry Songs of All Time

In CFDs and Forex, investors have the ability to profit from the fluctuations in the price of a financial asset, by buying it cheap and selling it at a higher price or vice-a-versa. Most investors take advantage of the optional Leverage feature, which allows them to obtain large exposure for a relatively small initial deposit. The high degree of leverage that is obtainable in the trading of CFDs and Forex can work both against you as well as for you.

A: A CFD, or Contract for Difference, is an agreement between two parties to exchange the difference between the opening price and closing price of a contract. CFDs are derivatives products that allow you to trade on live market price movements without actually owning the underlying instrument on which your contract is based. You can use CFDs to speculate on the future movement of market prices regardless of whether the underlying markets are rising or falling. You have the opportunity to sell and profit from falling prices, or buy and profit from rising prices. Moreover, with our vast variety of markets, you can gain exposure to markets you may not have had access to before. We offer CFDs on shares, indices, and commodities.
Q: What is Forex?
A: Forex is a shortened term used for 'Foreign Exchange'. It is the process of buying and selling currencies. The foreign exchange market is the biggest and most liquid financial market in the world. The market operates 24 hours around the clock from Sunday night through Friday and comprises central banks, currency speculators, organizations, governments, retail investors and international investors. Over the years, the size of the Forex market has been constantly increasing. According to the Bank for International Settlements' (BIS) 2013 Triennial Survey of global FX market volumes, the average daily volume in the global Forex markets was estimated at $5.345 trillion, 34% higher in than the $3.971 trillion in April 2010 ($3.21 trillion daily in April 2007 and $1.7 trillion in 1998).
Q: How does CFD and Forex trading work?
A: Forex is traded in currency pairs while CFD's are commonly a financial instrument that is valued in a specific currency. Common currency pairs are the Euro/US Dollar (EUR/USD), US Dollar/Japanese Yen (USD/JPY), Great British Pound/US Dollar (GBP/USD), Euro/Japanese Yen (EUR/JPY) and Australian Dollar/US Dollar (AUD/USD). You can buy and sell each currency or financial instrument.
Q: What are the Market trading hours?
A: Normally, during the European and North American winter time, weekly activity begins on Sunday at 22:05 GMT continuously until Friday 21:00 GMT. During the Day Light Saving times in these regions, the weekly market activity begins on Sunday at 21:05 GMT and ends on Friday at 20:00. Market activity hours may vary due to public holidays or due to unusual liquidity conditions which may arise from exceptional global events. Opening or Closing times may also be altered by iFOREX due to liquidity and risk management considerations. Please be advised that while most of the instruments are traded on a 24 hour basis without interruption, some instruments, mainly shares and indices, have special Trading Hours.
Q: What tools do I need to trade online?
A: To be able to trade you only need a device with an internet connection and a funded trading account. In addition, we strongly recommend you to be equipped with Forex/CFD's or other financial education and trading tools to help you minimize the risks in the market.
Q: How old do I need to be to trade?
A: You must be over the age of 18 to trade.
Q: What is Leverage?
A: Leverage is used to significantly increase your purchasing power. No other market gives you so much liquidity and leverage at the same time. On some instruments, iFOREX provides a leverage of up to 400:1. This means that with a deposit of $100, you can trade with up to $40,000.
Q: What is a Pip?
A: In financial markets, specifically in the Forex market, pip (percentage in point) is a unit of change in an exchange rate of a currency pair. Most major currency pairs are priced to four decimal places, and a pip is one unit of the fourth decimal point: for dollar currencies this is to 1/100th of a cent.
Q: What is a Spread?
A: The spread is the difference between the BUY price and the SELL price of two instruments. For example, if the EUR/USD is trading at 1.3100 (buy) and 1.3098 (sell), then the spread is 2 pips.
Q: What does going "long" and "short" mean?
A: Going "long" is when a trader buys an asset expecting its value to rise. This is also called opening a long position. Going "short" or opening a short position, is when a trader sells an asset, expecting its price to decline so it can be bought back in the future at a lower price
Q: Does the Forex market have a central location?
A: Unlike the equities market, the Forex market does not have a central location. Transactions take place over the internet or phone which is why the market is available 24 hours a day.
Q: How are prices determined?
A: There are various ways prices can change. Economic and political conditions usually affect the value of an asset, along with interest rates, inflation, and supply and demand.
Q: Are orders executed even if the underlying market is closed?
A: No. iFOREX does not execute orders during off-hours.
Q: Are there any conditions that can affect the rate at which my Market Orders are executed?
A: Yes, during market conditions that are characterized by high volatility or communication latency, and due to the time it takes for an order to be executed, market orders may sometimes be executed at a different rate than requested.
Q: Can I place Limit Orders when the market is closed?
A: Yes. Even when the market is closed, it is possible to add, change and remove Limit Orders on all instruments.
Q: What are the costs for opening & closing deals on CFDs thru iFOREX?
A: iFOREX does not charge any fee or commission for opening & closing deals on CFDs. The clients' costs are derived from the spread - this is the difference between the buy price and the sell price, which is always displayed on your trading screen. Overnight financing applies where applicable.
Q: What is the validity of a Spot transaction and what is Rollover in the Forex markets?
A: In the Forex and Precious Metals Spot markets, rollover is the process of extending the settlement date of an open position when it reaches its value date. In most currencies and other financial Spot trades, a position is open with validation for two business days after its execution date. By rolling over the position - the position's settlement period is extended by two additional business days. In similarity to the Forward mechanism, the rollover process involves a price adjustment due to interest rate differences between the 2 financial products, plus or minus a mark-up (interest spread), depending on the type of position you hold (Long\Short). Such adjustments may go both ways, meaning that you can be either credited or debited for such adjustments.
Q: What happens if a CFD position is held open overnight?
A: CFDs are exposed to overnight financing. When you hold a CFD position overnight your CFD position may consequently be subject to a credit or debit, calculated on the basis of the relevant Inter-Bank Offer Rate for the currency in which the underlying instrument is traded, plus or minus a mark-up, depending on the type of position you hold (Long/Short). For more information you can check our Trading Conditions
Q: What are Binary Options?
A: Binary Options are a simple and exciting method of trading the financial markets, based on the determination of whether the price of an asset (such as a currency pair, commodity, stock index or share) will close ABOVE or BELOW the current price within a set time period. Binary options are easy to execute, fun to trade and potentially highly profitable.
Q: What is a CALL option?
A: You want to buy a CALL option if you think the price of an asset will close ABOVE the current rate upon expiration.
Q: What is a PUT option?
A: You want to buy a PUT option if you think the price of an asset will close BELOW the current rate upon expiration.
Q: What does 'in-the-money' mean?
A: You are 'in-the-money' if your speculation of an asset's price is correct at the time of expiry.
Q: What does 'out-of-the-money' mean?
A: You are 'out-of-the-money' if the market moves in the opposite direction from your prediction of an asset's price at the time of the expiry.
Q: How much can I lose if the investment I made turns out wrong (out-of-the money)?
A: You cannot lose more than the amount you chose to invest. In addition, some options pay you back 10% of your investment even if you were wrong.
Q: What happens if my option expires at the Option Rate (Strike Price)?
A: If the expiration rate of your option is exactly the same as your option rate, you are considered "At-the-money". In this specific situation you will be refunded 100% of your initial investment.
Q: How much do I need to invest on a trade?
A: You can trade any amount between $10 and $1000 depending on your confidence level and risk tolerance.
Q: What return will I receive for a successful investment?
A: If your prediction is correct ('in-the-money') you will receive the payout established for that particular asset and time period—generally 70%-92% of the value of the trade.
Q: What options can I trade?
A: iFOREX offers over 100 assets that you can open binary option trades on. This includes: EUR/USD, GBP/USD, USD/CHF, GBP/JPY, AUD/USD, EUR/JPY, Gold, Oil, US 500 and many more.
Q: What is an underlying asset?
A: The underlying asset is the financial instrument (e.g. shares index, commodity or Forex pair) on which an option's price is based.
Q: What is the expiry time?
A: The expiry time is the time and date at which an option expires. The time to expiration varies between the different options. Fixed Expiration Options are the standard High/Low options which offer expirations in the coming hours, while Turbo Options offer a very short time expirations of 5 minutes, 2 minutes or 60 seconds, to be chosen according to each trader's preferences. Binary Options' transactions are executed "in Market Rates", meaning in the price in effect available on the market as indicated on our servers at the time the order is placed, provided that it is similar to the price displayed in the platform, or otherwise declined. After the expiration, our trading systems calculate your return according to the last rate which was available prior to the expiration time and if required, your account is automatically credited accordingly.
Q: What is the Time Zone of the expiry time?
A: The time zone of the expiry time is set at GMT.
