Government Funding the Arts
There was this screeching, shrieking, wailing sound coming from Hollywood and the left recently. No, I'm not talking about Ashley Judd squealing about her noxious, much abused and hammered twat in DC a couple of days ago, or Madonna fantasizing about blowing up the White House (she may have misspoken and meant "blowing," since there's not much left for her to do as a dried up whore, who contributed to Queen von Pantsuit's defeat last November by threatening blowjobs for votes). I'm talking about the collective howl of outrageary at the announcement that 45 is considering ending funding for the National Endowment for the Arts, which sucked $148 million from the federal budget last year. While that's a relatively small slice of the federal funding pie, it's got to start somewhere.
And yes, I'm thrilled that this is finally a possibility!
The Arts won't die without federal government support. The Arts thrived before the NEA came into existence in 1965, and they will continue to thrive after funding ends.
You know what won't thrive? Shitty art. Because if you suck at your art so much that you need the feds to steal money from the taxpayers to prop you up, and essentially FORCE those who wouldn't normally buy your brain droppings to pay for your assery so you can continue "creating" shit like this, which looks like a dick exploded after a night of banging Ashley Judd's infected cunt, then maybe you should find another way to make a living.
I should not be obligated to fund your hobby – and I don't give a fetid fuck whether a dime, or a penny, or even a percentage of the penny I earned goes to fund your entertainment. That penny doesn't belong to you. Go fellate a rabid platypus; you don't need my earnings to fuel your creative juices. Go to work, like everyone else, and make something people want to pay for.
Art, cinema, music, theater… all those things will exist without taxpayer funding. Even non-profit theater companies make… uh… profits. The Met made some pretty good scratch last year, despite falling ticket sales. Why? Because they're good, and apparently people want to attend the operas and other events there and are willing to pay for them.
As my friend Larry Correia said recently in a post that inspired this rant…
If you get good enough that your art actually moves people, then you'll be able to sell it. If you get to where people actually really like it, you can even make a living at it (like me).
Until then, nobody owes you shit. Tax payers don't owe you shit. I don't owe you shit. It only took ten cents from my taxes? So what? That's ten cents that could have went for something better than propping up your no-talent ass.
Here's the thing. If the government funds something, it also has the right to control it. On a more micro level, if I give you money, I expect you to create what I want/find appealing, or I will withdraw my funding.
But if the government funds your art, and I find your used tampon glued to a black canvas, or that booger you picked and framed disgusting, I don't have the right to withdraw funding from your bumbling ass, because I have no say in how the government spends my money.
At the same time, if some politicians decide you should be painting nothing but nativity scenes, they have the right to direct you to do that, because it's public money you're using to fund your creations. So just you wait when those eeeevil Christian theocrats take over!
Is that what you want? I doubt it. Withdrawing public funding from the arts protects it from unreasonable government government demands.
And frankly it protects my hard-earned dollars from being used to fund heinous fuckery like this turd. If I want to see shit, I'll gaze inside my toilet bowl before flushing. I certainly don't need to be paying for an artist's rendition of last night's digested pork chop and taters.
Let's get it straight, Cupcake. You. Don't. Have. The. Right. To. My. Earnings.
You have the right to excrete whatever hideous, boring, uninspired, churlish, plebeian pablum you want, from any orifice that strikes you. My only obligation should be that of non-interference. If the ass drippings you preserved on a canvas gain an audience who likes and appreciates such leavings, you will make money, because they will be willing to pay for it.
Art is a skill. Work to develop it. Work to improve it. Work to provide your audience with music, literature, paintings, cinema, and theater that touches them, makes them think, entertains them, and stimulates their senses.
Art is a product. Work to develop a product your customers will truly want, admire, appreciate, and be willing to shell out money for, and you won't need government funding.
So don't stick out your grubby paw and demand the rest of us fund your dream of becoming an "artist." If you need that, chances are you suck anyway.
"I'm no hero."
No, you're not, Kim Davis.
I know, I'm breaking my own self-imposed rule by writing about this toad, but considering she has been screeching in the media about how she's all victimy and stuff, I figured I'd clear up a few things.
Kentucky clerk Kim Davis says marriage licenses are being issued in Rowan County without her authority and she wants her name and title removed.
And when the deputy clerks issue licenses with her name removed, this entitled bitch says, "uh-uh!" The licenses may not be valid without her signature.
She would object to the documents noting that they come from the office "Rowan County Clerk," and she would also want an official declaration from the court that the licenses aren't being issued under her authority.
So, translation: I am the Clerk. I refuse to resign, because I'm entitled to my job and my $80,000/year salary. But I refuse to have legal documents issued under my authority, but I won't resign and allow others to issue them under theirs.
Essentially, she's holding the issue hostage.
But… But… But… HER RELIGIOUS FREEDOM!!!
Now, y'all know I've defended Christians and their right to hold their beliefs. My stance on churches performing gay marriages has always been and remains that any church should be free to deny or perform the religious ceremony for gay couples (much like any baker, photographer, etc. as a private citizen should have the right to deny any client for any reason, no matter how ignorant), and any congregants who disagree with their church's actions on the issue can find a new place of worship. Everyone wins. No government interference. The church officials follow their own consciences on the issue, and the worshipers do as well.
This, however, has nothing to do with this toad's religious freedom, and here's why:
As the County Clerk, she is the government. She is part of said government. She is required to issue legal documents. Note, these licenses are not religious documents. They are legal ones. No one is asking her to approve of the union. No one is asking her to perform a religious ceremony. She is required – as part of her job – to issue legal documents to people – people who pay her $80,000 salary. If she cannot in good conscience do her job, she should resign.
But… But… But… Kentucky passed an amendment to its state constitution banning gay marriages and unions, and 10th Amendment!
Well, the 14th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution forbids states from denying "to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws." By using her authority as Clerk, Davis is doing exactly that. Gays are persons. They are also taxpayers who pay her salary. She is denying them equal protection under the law, as is the Kentucky State Constitution. And she is doing so, even as she draws her salary from them.
But… but… but… putting her name on a license signifies her endorsement of gay marriage, and therefore violates her religious freedom!
No, it doesn't. It is not a religious act she is being asked to perform, and even though the Kentucky State Constitution defines marriage as a union between one man and one woman,
As the Court has already pointed out, Davis is simply being asked to signify that couples meet the legal requirements to marry. The State is not asking her to condone same-sex unions on moral or religious grounds, nor is it restricting her from engaging in a variety of religious activities.
Surprisingly, the Washington Post analysis I cited above actually supports Davis' view and says if she believes "that it's religiously wrong for her to issue licenses with her name on them, ordering her to do that indeed burdens her religious beliefs, enough to trigger the Kentucky Religious Freedom Restoration Act. And giving her the more modest exemption from the include-the-court-clerk's-name requirement might therefore indeed be required by the Kentucky RFRA." The only problem with this is that if her name is removed as the clerk, then the licenses issues may very well be invalid, and once again, she is holding the process hostage to her religious beliefs.
Look, there are some complex legal issues here, and no one is denying this. This is one reason why government involvement in marriage is such a ridiculous idea, and why I'm a huge proponent of getting the government – whether federal or state – out of the issue altogether.
People who want to spend their lives together should be free to do so. They should be free to leave their estates to one another. They should be free to have children together and raise them with love and care. They should be able to visit one another in the hospital without showing a state-issued marriage certificate, and they should certainly be able to receive the flag from the casket of their loved one when said loved one is killed in action!
No one should be forced – and yes, government is force – to perform a religious ceremony, bake a cake, take wedding photographs, or create wedding bands for any ceremony they find religiously objectionable.
But to turn the tables, no government official – and make no mistake, that Davis toad is a government official – should have the right to deny equal treatment under the law to any taxpayer, thereby imposing their religious beliefs on said taxpayers by refusing to step down, since legally it might be that she's the only one who is authorized by law to sign those legal documents. What she is saying is, "I will not sign these legal documents. I will not allow my name to be on them. But I won't step aside and allow anyone else's name to be on them either."
As I said, it's not about her religious freedom. It's about everyone else's right to be free from her religious views.
If this toad had any integrity at all, she would turn down the $80,000 salary paid by the taxpayers, that includes gay ones. But no… she's fine with taking their tax dollars, but not fine with providing to them the services she was hired to provide?
Nope. Unacceptable. Unacceptable morally and ethically. And hypocritical to boot!
No, she is not a martyr.
No, she is not a hero.
No, she cannot be compared to Rosa Parks, Martin Luther King, Jr. or any other civil rights hero, because she is using her government office to deny equal treatment under the law to consenting adults wishing to spend their lives together, and she is hiding behind her religion. Sorry. NO-GO! She's not fighting for religious rights. Her religious rights have not been violated, unless you consider her right to hold a government job and draw an $80,000 salary paid by the taxpayers a "right," in which case, please just STAHP TALKING! No, she is not being punished for her religious beliefs. She is free to hold them. She is free to exercise them. She is free to worship as she pleases and to interpret her Bible in any way she wishes. What is is not free to do is use her government office to deny equal protections under the law to the very taxpayers who pay her fucking salary!
She is being punished for refusing to do her job, to which she doesn't have a right. Get over it. This toad is no Rosa Parks.
As you can tell, I don't think much of her as a person. I think she's an attention whore. I think she's a selfish twat, who if she had any integrity at all, would leave that cushy government job if she believed that something as simple as putting her name on a legal document (NOT A RELIGIOUS DOCUMENT) violates her religious beliefs.
I know plenty of religious people who believe marriage should be only between a man and a woman. I may not agree with them, but I'm not religious, so that's understandable. They should be free to hold those beliefs without governments penalizing them. They should be free to decline to perform a religious ceremony if it violates their beliefs. They should be free to decline to participate in said ceremony, if it violates their beliefs.
But what they are not and should not be free to do is deny others equal treatment under the law if they are government officials. And that is exactly what Davis is trying to do, while hiding behind her "I'm a religious person" shield!
You may differ with me on the assessment. You may even know more about the law than I do. I freely admit I'm not a lawyer. I also freely admit, my amateur legal assessment may be off. That said, what is NOT off is my assessment that for Davis to refuse to treat all taxpayers equally while gleefully taking home a rather large paycheck funded by them is immoral and unethical. Bakers who refuse to cater gay weddings don't take money from gay couples to whom they refuse to provide a service. Same with photographers, and any other private companies that refuse to make that a part of their services. Kim Davis still draws that salary from taxpayers, while refusing to provide them with the services for which they pay, and refusing to step aside and allow another government official to do so. That makes her a hypocritical toad in my book.
Have fun trying to convince me otherwise.
Most. Transparent. Administration. EVAH.
Now, if you read that title, you pretty much know what's coming next. The. Exact. Opposite.
For the second consecutive year, the Obama administration more often than ever censored government files or outright denied access to them under the U.S. Freedom of Information Act, according to a new analysis of federal data by The Associated Press.
The government took longer to turn over files when it provided any, said more regularly that it couldn't find documents, and refused a record number of times to turn over files quickly that might be especially newsworthy.
It also acknowledged in nearly 1 in 3 cases that its initial decisions to withhold or censor records were improper under the law — but only when it was challenged.
Translation: We are your government. We will take our own sweet ass time showing you what we're doing, because we hope that you'll just get sick and tired of waiting, and when we do finally respond to your FOIA request, it will either be redacted beyond comprehension or outright denied.
Because fuck you.
Oh, I'm sorry. Or was it: We just don't have enough resources to keep up with all the FOIA requests, so we're just denying them outright, because we don't have the manpower to pay the overtime, but if you allow us to raise taxes and hire more bureaucrats, we will give you information that you're entitled to from the government which you put in power and which is funded by your tax dollars.
But no. Really. This administration has "a lot to be proud of," says White House spokeshole Josh Earnest, who contrary to his last name is anything but.
As a matter of fact, the White House has formally exempted its Office of Administration from FOIA regulations, effectively barring citizens from requesting information about their government. To be fair, the Office of Administration pretty much stopped responding to FOIA requests under Bush, but the Obama Administration has made those refusals official and legal.
So much for transparency.
The Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington (CREW) sued the office after being denied access to documents it had requested to obtain details about a slew of emails that had gone missing from White House servers.
After a lengthy appeal, the court upheld the ruling that the Office of Administration, which advises and assists the president, is not an "agency" as defined by the FOIA.
Since it only "performs only operational and administrative tasks in support of the president and his staff," the court ruled in 2009, "under our precedent, [the Office of Administration] lacks substantial independent authority."
Most. Transparent. Administration. Ever.
You know…
I love my job. My job is a public trust. The taxpayers pay me to provide what I consider to be a pretty important service, and in return they expect me to do my job to the best of my ability.
I take nothing for granted. My job could disappear tomorrow, and my bosses – THE TAXPAYERS – could decide they no longer need my services. It's as simple as that.
Yes, I sometimes have to do things I don't like. I have sat through all-day meetings. I have sat through mandatory training that lasted several hours. Staff meetings, PowerPoint presentations… you name it.
But I sit through them, and not once have I whipped out my phone and decided that the taxpayers will now pay me to play video games, instead of doing my job!
That's why shit like this really pisses me off:
Scandal! Caught playing iPhone game at 3+ hour Senate hearing – worst of all I lost!
— John McCain (@SenJohnMcCain) September 3, 2013
Yes, sir! It is a scandal! If my bosses caught me playing video games on my fucking phone during the work day, I would at the very least get a letter of reprimand, and at the very worst lose my job!
You may not take your job seriously, having been sucking on the taxpayer teat longer than I've been alive (slight exaggeration, but you know what I mean), but we, the people who pay your salary and your benefits, do take it seriously! And we take it seriously, because every decision you make affects us and our lives, you supercilious, arrogant, worn out colostomy bag!
We pay you to be one of the people who leads this country. We pay you to goddamn pay attention – especially when the hearing is about waging war and possibly sending our children into harm's way!
So yeah, it is a scandal, John McCain! Maybe you should reexamine your fucking priorities, and remember who it is you're working for, and who pays you to do the right thing!
Tax Hike Bob Is In Serious Trouble…
…and it couldn't happen to a nicer guy. He needs to resign. Shaun Kenney has the story. And I think a lot of people owe Willie Deutsch an apology if he does. RLCVA board member Joshua Huffman has more.
I haven't liked or trusted him since he immediately began running for Governor in 2005 upon being elected Attorney General by a razor-thin margin over Sen. Creigh Deeds, the same man he would best in the 2009 gubernatorial general election. I've met Bob McDonnell on roughly ten occasions, having had extended conversations with him twice, and he has come off as agenda-driven, ambitious (even by politician standards!), disingenuous, and always looking around the room to see who he should be talking to, regardless of who it is he's speaking to at the time. In short, he's an example of the problem with the Republican Party of Virginia. He, along with George Allen and Bill Bolling, marshaled their establishment hack minions on the RPV State Central Committee to depose Jeff Frederick as RPV Chairman and replace him with Uncle Pat Mullins, a longtime GOP establishment fixture in Virginia. This was all before he declared his candidacy for Governor and the deal was done with Bolling. They also recruited John Brownlee to try and stop Ken Cuccinelli from becoming the nominee for AG in 2009.
Upon becoming Governor, he made a litany of promises about how he was going to cut government, fix VDOT, etc. Name a conservative promise of good, honest and open government in Richmond, and he probably made it either during the campaign or immediately around the time of his inauguration. He deserves credit for floating the plan to sell off the state-owned liquor stores, but he didn't really throw his full political weight behind it, so no one backed him up on it in the General Assembly. He spent a lot of time recruiting businesses to come to Virginia from various and sundry hopeless blue states, with a fair degree of success. The bad news: He often promises them goodies in the form of sepcial tax breaks, which of course, translate into tax increases on everyone else. He topped off his mediocrity of an administration by cooking up Plan '13 From Outer Space with Bill Howell, Tommy Norment, Bolling and some Democrats in the GA, and passing it over the objections of conservatives.
Please, Bob. Just go. I'm sure Bill Bolling will be more than pleased to sit in the big chair, if only for a little while.

Let me put it this way: Bush, for all his flaws, never started a nuclear war. There is still room to be worse than him.
And the U.S. seems to be exploring that space right now.

In my opinion, you are absolutely correct. The thing that makes me go ugh every time I have to teach it, is that I can explain the unix pipeline in 10 minutes. Powershell takes much longer than that for very little real benefit.
I agree with you on the whole, but when it came down to what amounts to a set play, the defense, at that moment, might have been setup to defend for a shorter amount of time than what was played. That's why the last measurement is more important: the nomber of outcomes is much smaller.
I don't know who you hang out with, but the D&D players I know tend to be pretty superstitious about their die. And fairness doesn't really enter into it: if you roll any dice for no reason and get a high value, you are wasting those high values. If a dice is rolling badly for you, you "retire" it for the night.
it makes absolutely no sense, but it does.
What are you complaining about. The meowmeowbeens episode was great. I don't know what could go wrong.
For the Horde, I mean, FOR THE CHILDREN!
So, for the Alliance, then.
For the ward!
If you screw a woman in some countries without their father's approval beforehand it is rape.
And I would think they would have tons of trouble having you extradited from the U.S. or the U.K. Not that this has anything to do with the case at hand.
I don't know how seriously the scientist took this research.
But I do remember that Richard Feynman wrote a paper on the wobbling movement of a spinning plate. He did this because he was depressed and had scientific writer's block. And nobody would deny the importance of his later work.
Science is science. If what they find is correct in the scientific sense, it really doesn't bother me too much.
I'd be worried if scientists started really competing for the Ig Nobel prizes. But I doubt that they ever will

It looks like the court is finally set to rule on the CFPB's motion to dismiss in State National Bank of Big Spring, Texas, et al. v. Lew, et al., the case still pending in federal district court in Washington, D.C. that included a challenge to President Obama's recess appointment of Richard Cordray. While Mr. Cordray's confirmation as CFPB Director may have mooted that challenge, the case also includes a challenge to the CFPB's constitutionality that is similar to the challenge made in the Morgan Drexen lawsuit filed on July 22. In both cases, the CFPB's structure and authority is alleged to violate the Constitution's separation of powers.
The State National Bank of Big Spring (SNB) case was originally filed in June 2012 by SNB and two non-profit organizations in the metropolitan Washington, D.C. area. In addition to the CFPB, the defendants included the Treasury Department, the other federal banking agencies and the SEC. In September 2012, an amended complaint was filed adding as plaintiffs the Republican state Attorneys General of Oklahoma, South Carolina and Michigan.) However, the state AGs did not join the portions of the amended complaint challenging the CFPB's constitutionality or Mr. Cordray's appointment. Instead, they only joined a newly-added challenge to the provisions in Title II of Dodd-Frank that give the Treasury Secretary "orderly liquidation authority" over financial companies. (Subsequently, eight more Republican state AGs joined the complaint as plaintiffs.)
In November 2012, the defendants filed their motion to dismiss in which they argued that SNB's claim that the regulatory uncertainty created by the CFPB's UDAAP authority caused SNB to exit the mortgage business did not give SNB standing to challenge the CFPB's constitutionality or Mr. Cordray's appointment. In response to SNB's claim that it stopped providing remittance transfers due to the compliance costs associated with the CFPB's remittance transfer regulation, the defendants argued that because the regulation was promulgated pursuant to the CFPB's authority to implement the Electronic Fund Transfer Act rather than its UDAAP authority, the regulation did not give SNB standing to challenge the CFPB's constitutionality based on its UDAAP authority. They also argued that the SNB's claims were not ripe because it had not shown any imminent threat of harm resulting from CFPB action.
After holding a hearing on the motion to dismiss on June 12, 2013, the court entered an order on July 17 asking for supplemental briefs. The private plaintiffs were ordered to file a brief addressing the effect of Mr. Cordray's confirmation and the defendants were ordered to file a brief addressing SNB's contention that it had standing based on the representation made by SNB's Chairman that "But for the Bureau, its rules and its enforcement authority, the Bank would reenter the consumer mortgage and remittance market without limitation."
In their supplemental brief, the defendants characterize SNB's alleged injuries as "self-inflicted" and argue that self-inflicted injuries do not give rise to Article III standing if they were incurred to avoid a future harm that is not certainly impending. They claim SNB has not plausibly alleged it would face a "certainly impending injury" by reentering the mortgage and remittance markets. In the private plaintiffs' supplemental brief, SNB argues that Mr. Cordray's confirmation does not moot its claims because it continues to be injured by regulations unconstitutionally promulgated by Mr. Cordray.
In addition to the SNB case, we had also been following CFPB v. Chance Edward Gordon, a California case involving a challenge to Mr. Cordray's recess appointment. In the case, which was filed last summer, the CFPB alleged that an attorney and his law firm had violated the Consumer Financial Protection Act of 2010 (meaning Title X of Dodd-Frank) and Regulation O, the Mortgage Assistance Relief Services Rule, by falsely promising loan modifications in exchange for advance fees.
As part of their affirmative defenses to the CFPB's complaint, the defendants had included a challenge to Mr. Cordray's appointment. On June 26, 2013, the court issued an order granting the CFPB's motion for summary judgment on its CFPA and Reg O claims. In denying the defendants' summary judgment motion, the court found that the defendants had waived their challenge to Mr. Cordray's appointment by failing to adequately "explain how, in the absence of a properly appointed or confirmed director, CFPB is unable to prosecute this action."

When I became an AUSTRALIAN citizen,16 years ago, I didn't become a Qeenslander or a Victorian , when I travel I carry an AUSTRALIAN passport, and I'm very happy and proud to be an AUSTRALIAN . Where in a foreign country, you say I'm Australin not a Queenslander or a tasmanian, people wouldn't even know about these differences.
A perfectly legitimate business in NSW becomes a criminal activity in QLD, how can one justify that as we're all AUSTRALIANS, the same laws should apply to all of us regardless of where we happen to live.
I can only speak for QLD but have a look at your house and content insurance premium: 1st you get the premium, 2d the stamp duty ( state tax) and then the GST ( federal tax)on the total , meanig you pay a tax on a tax !! how unfair and unjustifiable is that ?
I red a few years ago that getting rid of the states would save us 32 billions a year as a nation.
as we now have some debt to repay , let's make a start by getting rid of the states and all these 3rd rate politicians, who are in state politics because they are unable to have a real job and are only obssessed with one thing : getting re elected.
we live in a very big country ( a continent) but with a very small population therefore we don't need all these tiers of government with all the duplication or triplication of documents , services, and public servants. distance is no more a problem in an era of instant communication , video conference etc..
on the way to a republic let's take the first step and abolish the states.

text: Have Spelling Bee "Winning Words" Always Been So Obscure?Reuben Fischer-Baum5/29/14 11:45amFiled to: spelling beeinfographicinfographicsgettypicRegressing454EditPromoteShare to KinjaToggle Conversation toolsGo to permalink Arvind Mahankali won the 2013 National Spelling Bee on "knaidel," a type of dumpling. The winning word the year prior was "guetapens," before that "cymotrichous," and before that "stromuhr." Have bee-winning words always been this insane, or is this a recent development? Advertisement It's tough to measure how hard a word is to spell, but we can measure how rare the word is, using Google Ngram. If you're not familiar, Google Ngram searches a corpus of digitized books to see how word use changes over time, as a percentage of all words in the corpus. We looked up the Ngram usage for all 86 winning words (lower, upper, and title case combined) for the year prior to the bee; you can find our full results below.There are lot of potential pitfalls in using Ngram results, but one concern is the data sample Google has access to isn't really representative of word usage in the wider culture. In particular, scientific and academic texts may be overrepresented; words like "asceticism," 1929's winner, may appear surprisingly common for this reason. Advertisement Here are the Ngram usages for all of the winning words, from 1925 to 2013. Words closer to the top are more common: "Therapy" easily takes the top spot; it's widely used nowadays, but it was still plenty common 1939. (Also, it's not that hard to spell.) The rest of the list is below, sortable by usage or date:That top chart makes it clear what the anomalously common words are, but everything else gets crushed to the bottom, so it's hard to see if there are any trends. To work around this, we can put the same data on a logarithmic scale (like the Richter Scale): Now that we have some breathing room, we can see that there seems to be a general downward trend, implying that winning words are becoming rarer. In particular the last 20 years or so have seen a serious dip; this is more obvious if you add a LOESS curve to the chart. Of the 15 rarest winners in bee history, 11 have come since 1995:RankYearWinning WordUsage/100 billion (prev. year)T-11955crustaceology0T-11962esquamulose0T-11980elucubrate0T-12002prospicience0T-12011*cymotrichous0T-62012*guetapens5T-62013*knaidel582010*stromuhr1591996vivisepulture24101999logorrhea53111998chiaroscurist67121995xanthosis87131997euonym103141979maculature115152007serrefine137*Google Ngram only provides data through 2008, so the frequency of the 2010, 2011, 2012, and 2013 winners are all based on data from 2008. These words were all extremely rare in 2008, but I have no reason to think that their usage has appreciably changed in the last few years. Advertisement Sponsored Those five top words stumped Google Ngram, and didn't appear in the corpus at all in the year prior to the bee. "Esquamulose"—meaning "not covered in scales"—wins rarest word, period; it doesn't appear in the corpus for any year, from 1800 to 2008 (a word has to appear in at least 40 books to show up in the database).Appropriately, "esquamulose" was only a winning word in a technical sense. The 1962 contest ended in a tie after both finalists failed to spell it correctly, the first and only time that the bee has ended in such as way.Reply45 repliesLeave a reply

This breakout thriller by the master of horror will take its place on the shelf next to other Garton classics like Live Girls and The New Neighbor.
This blockbuster is a chilling combination of thrills, terror, black humor, plot reversals, and a climax so shocking it will leave you shaken.
Adam Julian, son of a Hollywood screenwriter, has a life many would kill for . . . and some would kill to keep. He is tangled in a web of forced sex, coerced into robbery, and it is only a short step to killing as a choice. At the center of the book is a sensational murder trial, which oddly resembles the O. J. Simpson case. The cast features an abrasive, starstruck female judge, blundering prosecuting attorneys, a nerdy defendant who reserves his right to silence, and Rona Horowitz, a pint-size ball of fire of a defense lawyer. The defendant may be guilty, but energetic Rona tries one outrageous legal stunt after another in order to exonerate her client. Drenched in the glamour and the sleaze of highline and lowlife Hollywood, this satirical and entertaining look at the criminal justice system, turned inside out and upside down by showbiz at its best and worst, is a panorama of crime, corruption, and violence delivered with grim authenticity and hilarious awfulness.

Fire Department
The fire department responds to all fire and emergency medical incidents in the City of Andover. Paid on-call firefighters are alerted to an incident via a pager dispatched through the Anoka County Central Communications System. The fire department is responsible for performing new building plan reviews and existing building inspections to ensure compliance with State and Federal Fire Codes and Standards. The fire department also provides public education and fire safety information to residents. In addition, the Fire Chief is the city Emergency Manager, overseeing all city disaster and contingency plans.
Our History
The volunteer fire department was established in 1977. Several residents of Andover formed the department to respond to fire and emergency calls. At that time, there were 2 groups within the department: those that responded to fire calls and those who responded only to emergency medical calls. The original tin barn, used by the fire department, is still located at the corner of Nightingale and Crosstown Blvd.
As the city continued to grow between 1977 and 1990, the fire department used part of the Public Works building as the fire station. In 1990, 2 new fire stations were built to better respond to the city's needs. To date, the City of Andover has 3 fire stations, approximately 55 paid on call firefighters, 3 full-time staff the Fire Chief, Assistant Fire Chief, and Fire Marshal.
Our Locations
The 3 stations are located at the following locations:
Station Number 1
13875 Crosstown Blvd.
Andover, MN 55304
Station Number 2
16603 Valley Drive
Andover, MN 55304
Station Number 3
15929 Crosstown Blvd.
Andover, MN 55304
Contact Us
If you are trying to contact the fire department with non emergency questions, please call Station No. 1 at 763-755-9825.
Fire Department Duties
The fire department responds to all fire and emergency medical calls within the City of Andover. In addition to responding to the above types of incidents, the fire department handles the following:
- Minnesota State Fire Code Enforcement
- Fire Prevention Education and Station Tours
- Fire Inspections of new and existing buildings
- Day Care and Foster Care Inspections
- Building Plan reviews for Fire and Life Safety
- Burning Permits and Recreational Fires

Behave yourselves, ladies.

Behave yourselves, ladies.
(submitted by Chad)
I guess that Cap and Gown picture of me in bikini underneath with it open would shock anybody either.
Wow. Bow ties are no longer cool.
Helllllllo Chad you magnificent beast
I'm sure this was attached to his Chippendale's application. How'd the audition go?
I now know that I must replicate this photo for next year's Valentine's Day gift. I just hope I can do you justice Chad.
Does he even lift?
w00f! Chad definitely IS smokin'!!!
There is nothing sexier than a formal mullet.
Oh, Chad!
The difference between me and you is, I make this look good…
Love, The Chad
Chad, honey, I don't want to alarm you but your back hair seems to be on fire.
Great comment for a great picture! You win!
He's from Florida, of course, and is known thereabouts as Hangin' Chad.
I just laughed so hard, my coffee sprayed out of my nose!! Good one!!!!
Is that a senior picture or a Glamour Shot? Either way, Chad is a stud. A mullet and a bow tie? It just doesn't get any manlier.
Well of COURSE his name is Chad.
I'm impressed that the trim of his bangs and his mustache are identical in their pattern.
YES!!! That is the absolute key to this photo.

I just got a pair of Shure SE530's, and I am torn between getting a Tomahawk or holding out for the SR-71A. I have previously owned both a Tomahawk, and the original SR-71. I know the new SR-71A is going to have a three position gain switch, which could be matched beautifully with the SE530's, but the Tomahawk was made for IEM's. Any thoughts or advice on what I should do? Thanks! - WaxMan.

Apple Hopes Server Will Attract New Users
But many remain skeptical of Xserve despite Unix-based OS, high performance and low price.Apple Computer Inc. will soon start shipping its first rack-mounted server to Macintosh customers, and it hopes the Unix-based Xserve system will win over skeptical enterprise users who have avoided the company. But despite the dual-processor Xserves impressive features and the stability of the Unix-based OS X operating system, several corporate IT managers said the products lack of standard hardware components and software will likely prompt them to shop elsewhere.
"Would I be biased against Apple? Yes, to be honest, I would," said Brian Potts, network manager for Associated Food Stores Inc., in Salt Lake City. "Were always willing to look at competitive products, but we have a tendency to go with established players, such as Dell [Computer Corp.], Hewlett-Packard [Co.], IBM and Unisys [Corp.]. You want a company that you know will be there tomorrow and that has a solid history of service and support."

what about wine bags. any limit? i know i brought in a couple boxes last year. but i plan on bring 4 boxes for the annual Fucking Coachella Winebag Mixer 2014
They sell sunscreen FLASKS on Amazon…..
wow this is amazing, I never considered this method. hmmm
I remember them not even letting me take any water in. They made me empty my water bottle (they have free water refill stations inside)
I hate all of you for taking this post seriously. Some people clearly are trolling and some people are clearly the worst lol. If you can't figure out a way to sneak things into Coachella (especially into the campgrounds) you're not mentally equipped enough to handle it anyways. Plain and simple.
someone on the coachella subreddit said they dont check spare tire compartments? is that true? i feel like that would be the first place they check...

This month's session will feature York College's very own Alimamy M. Kamara Jr., of the Office of Admissions. Alimammy is not only a very talented executive with York College, but a filmmaker as well. We will be showing his feature film, "Monster In My Room."

|Add event to calendar
"Monster In My Room," is the first film that Kamara is featuring here on campus. Imagine you are a nine year old who is loving, caring and does not understand the cruel behavior of adults. Imagine a mother who cannot protect her child from harm because she is blinded by hardship. Now picture the man your father, trusted, loved and respected doing the unthinkable to a child. This molester's behavior is undetected by his friends and family members. "Monster In My Room" is the story of the trusted and the beloved. This psychological drama illustrates the impact an abused child suffers when a parent fails to protect her.

Since i know nothing I will just point out that some
people's picture appear as part of their message and
I do not have to download them, others say do you
want to download and require installation sometimes of
accrobat or other software i usually choose no on
these, since I am concerned about downloading a virus,
and usually they take more time than I have. I have
not kept track of who it is I never view but i am sure
there are a couple of folks that never get their
pictures seen. I think we all approach this as
something mysterious.

text: The world has never seen anything like "the" movement called the Church. People want to be part of something bigger and something greater than themselves. The book of Acts tells the story of a group of first-century, rag-tag followers of the Risen Christ who became the movement that would change the world. It's God's movement because He is a God on the move, and He invites us to get on the move with Him. Come be a part of the most important, life-transforming, world-changing movement in history.

Great trip and super guide!
June 2016
My wife and I took this tour with Darren as our driver,
We had a fantastic time which was enhanced by Darren's friendliness and his entertainment skills.
Darren's knowledge and light hearted banter really contributed to a great day.
At one point he had the whole bus singing the chorus of The Irish Rover and I joined with him in a rendition of Seven Drunken Nights and learned the two verses of Saturday and Sunday night,
Once again a great day and many thanks to Darren.
Jim and Sue Glanvill Gosport UK

These tours are a fantastic way to see other parts of the country without having to take on the challenge of driving in a country you're unfamiliar with. My husband and I did feel like we were on the bus A LOT, however, we still saw A LOT and it was beautiful!! Because Connemara and Galway are about 3 hours from Dublin, I'm not sure being on the bus so much can be changed, so it's just sort of a double edged sword. This trip was definitely worth the money!
April 2016
Our trip to Connemara, led by Derek, was most enjoyable from start to finish. We enjoyed the Irish music en route too. The trip was relaxing and informative and we learnt snippets of the countrys history which encouraged us to find out more. We will recommend this company to others and will book again with you if we return to Ireland. Thank you.
March 2016
This trip was amazing! Everything was great!!! Even the last minute changes! We ended up going to a sheep farm instead of the boat tour, which was an unbelievable great experience and something I wanted to do since I got to Ireland! Loved it!!! Thanks Wil for everything!
February 2016
Tour incrível, especialmente pela beleza natural da região de Connemara e pela charmosa cidade de Galway. Nosso guia foi ótimo. Um dos pontos altos deste tour é a visita a uma fazenda de ovelhas onde o dono nos mostra como conduzi-las com seu cão. Realmente demais.
Kim L Australia
January 2016
This was a fun tour. We were on the bus a lot, but that is because you need to travel a long distance. The Connemara was amazing and beautiful. As part of the tour, there was a sheep roundup demonstration, which was amazing being on the side of a mountain, with the lake down the bottom and spectacular mountains all around and a sheep dog in the distance being told directions with whistles and calls in the distance. We then proceeded onto the Abbey for lunch, which was great, I just wish we had a little more time there to explore the grounds. Galway was fun, but not enough time to see things.
September 2015
June 2015
Loved it ! The boat trip scenery was beautiful. Liked the Quiet Man bridge and the Abbey also. Ended in Galway city and not Galway Bay , there was nothing really to see there. Overall all was well worth it !!!
December 2014
great tour and great guide !

What does "Literacy" mean for children with multiple disabilities?
Literacy includes more than just reading and writing print or braille. According to a definition by Wright (1997), it is an integrated process, which encompasses "proficiency in understanding and using written as well as spoken language as a reader, writer, speaker, and listener." With this broader focus on language, literacy includes recognizing objects, pictures, or other symbols, and using them to communicate. Making choices, anticipating events, following simple recipes, creating or "reading" lists, and other forms of self-expression are all part of functional literacy.
It may be daunting at first to imagine how to include children with significant multiple disabilities in early literacy experiences. If they cannot see the book, and if additional challenges make it difficult for them to hear, to understand, or to help to turn the pages, parents and teachers may be at a loss how to make this experience meaningful. Not all children will learn to read print or braille, but the path toward literacy also includes the development of important cognitive skills and communication. Exposure to a variety of literacy materials, using adaptations to make them as accessible as possible to the individual student, and providing rich and meaningful experiences are strategies that benefit all children.
To learn more about literacy for individuals with multiple disabilities or deafblindness, see Literacy for Persons Who Are Deaf-Blind (pdf format) by Barbara Miles, DB-LINK, National Consortium on Deaf-Blindness (January 2005).
Meaningful and Interesting Experiences
Because children with multiple disabilities often have limited experiences and may not fully understand everything that is happening around them, it is important to use meaningful and interesting experiences as the basis for developing literacy. Experiences from the child's own life that are basic and concrete are often a good place to start. This may be through memory boxes, journals, or the creation of language experience books. Vocabulary should be familiar to the child and should be presented in a way that is clear and consistent.
To learn more about Experience Stories see Experience Books from Washington Sensory Disabilities Services.
Functions of Reading and Writing—the WHY
by Barbara Miles
When we consider our reasons for reading and writing today, it is obvious that all persons require some level of literacy skills in order to function in society. Given appropriate materials and expectations, many students who are deafblind are able to gain proficiency in some (if not all) of the following areas (containing some form of symbols or print):
|Function of Reading/Writing
|Example for student who is Deafblind
|Organizing and supporting memory
|calendars, lists
|Acquiring information
|newspapers, phone books
|recipes, directions
|Financial negotiations
|checks, bank statements
|Entertainment: comic books, magazines, internet
|Identifying things or places signs, labels, packages
|Self-expression, dealing with emotions
|creating/maintaining relationships
|letters, journals, emails

"It was not the compensation I was fighting for. I want to correct the system and teach the doctor who did not treat my son with enough caution and care a lesson and left him for dead," says Anuradha Ahluwalia, the mother of Abhishek Ahluwalia, whose conviction in the strength of her case against the doctor led her to conquer several hiccups and difficulties on the way to Thursday's decision.
On the trauma of the events of July 2003, she said that her eternal regret will be trusting the doctor more than her son.
"Doctor negligent in treating patients should be dealt with strictly. However, I have also learnt that not all doctors are same. Doctors at the GMCH sector 32 gave a new lease of life to my son," she added.
In her mission to get the system to support her, Anuradha had to first understand that negligence that the doctor indulged into. She did countless rounds of several doctors to understand that how a wrong plaster could prove fatal and result in amputation of leg to save a life.
"Most times, when I approached a doctor for help, I was shunned out of the room. A few would hear me out and then advice to opt out. I used to spend sleepless nights reading medical literature, finding judgments to support my case," she added.
"I was the victim of negligence, but was treated as the accused. On each hearing, I used to appear before the court and sit there waiting for my case to be heard, while the doctor would appear through his counsel."
Amputation has failed to dishearten Abhishek Ahluwalia who is preparing for the judicial services exam.
Dr SALUJA'S DEFENCE
Prompt, adequate and correct treatment as per clinical conditions was rendered to Abhishek throughout the period he remained under my care regardless of the time and hour of the day. Though the ultimate amputation of the leg at the hands of GMCH-Sector 32 is unfortunate, yet it will be a mistake to deem that the same had been caused in any manner by the treatment rendered to him by me. The line of treatment administered by me was correct.
