Required Landlord Disclosures
Find out what disclosures you can expect to see in your lease or rental agreement or in another written communication from your landlord.
Tenants have many rights, primarily under state law, including the rights to privacy, a livable home, the proper use of your security deposit, and nondiscriminatory treatment from your landlord. Most of these rights are yours, even if they're not spelled out in your lease or rental agreement. But many states go a step further and require landlords to inform tenants of important state laws, individual landlord policies, or facts about the rental, either in the lease or rental agreement or in another writing—typically before the tenant moves in. In addition, local ordinances, particularly in rent control communities, often require certain landlord disclosures. Finally, federal law requires landlords to disclose lead-based paint hazards to tenants.
State-Required Disclosures
Here are examples of the types of disclosures your state law may require landlords to make to tenants:
- details on security deposits, such as the landlord's use and return of the deposit, where the deposit will be held, and the interest rate that will be paid
- a landlord's imposition of nonrefundable fees (where permitted)
- tenants' rights to move-in checklists that document existing damages to the rental property
- tenants' rights to be present at a move-out inspection of the rental property
- details on landlord-tenant law, such as local rent control rules, and other information such as registered sexual offender database
- shared utility arrangements – for example, if a tenant pays a portion of a master metered utility
- details on installation and maintenance of smoke detectors and alarms
- location of a former federal or state military ordnance in the neighborhood
- presence of environmental and health hazards, including lead-based paint (also a federal disclosure requirement, as discussed below), mold, radon, and bedbugs
- the identity of the landlord and the person authorized to receive legal papers and manage the premises, such as a property manager
- recent flooding in the rental unit (or location in a flood zone)
- smoking policy
- the presence of a methamphetamine laboratory at the rental prior to the tenant's occupancy
- the availability of fire protection
- planned condominium conversions, intention to demolish the rental unit, or in-process foreclosure proceedings
- outstanding building inspection or condemnation orders or housing code violations, and
- rights of domestic violence victims.
See your state disclosure laws for details on the rules in your state.
Federal Landlord Disclosures
In addition to state-required disclosures, federal law requires that landlords make certain disclosures before tenants sign a lease or rental agreement, including any known lead-based paint hazards in the rental premises. For more on lead-based paint disclosures, see the Lead Disclosures for Rental Property FAQ in this section,
Local Disclosures
Rent control ordinances typically require additional disclosures, such as the name and address of the government agency or elected board that administers the ordinance. Some cities may require specific disclosures—for example, New York City requires landlords to inform tenants of the building's and the rental unit's bedbug history for the past year. (New York City Administrative Code§ 27-2018.1.)
To see whether local rules apply, check with your city or county. Many municipalities and counties have local ordinances online—just search for the name of a particular city. State and Local Government on the Net is a good source for finding local government online. You can also check with the office of your city attorney, mayor, city manager, or county administrator.
Disclosures About the Rental Property
Part of a landlord's responsibility to provide habitable premises includes the obligation to warn tenants about hidden (not obvious) aspects of the rental property that could cause injury or substantially interfere with tenants' safe enjoyment and use of the dwelling—for example, a warning that the building walls contain asbestos insulation which could become dangerous if disturbed. Landlords may make these disclosures orally or in writing.
But keep in mind that some problems need to be fixed, not merely disclosed. A landlord who warns you about a hidden defect, such as a faulty heater, remains legally responsible if the heater makes your rental uninhabitable or unreasonably dangerous.
Consequences for Failing to Disclose
The consequences to landlords who fail to make disclosures vary tremendously. Some disclosure requirements that are imposed by statute contain their own penalty or consequence provisions, but many do not. When the statute does not specify consequences, general rules take over—tenants can sue for the damages they have suffered as a result of the nondisclosure. See Nolo's Small Claims Court and Lawsuit section for advice on filing a lawsuit.
Lawmakers know that when the only consequence for noncompliance is a tenant lawsuit, many landlords will take their chances that few tenants will sue—in other words, compliance will be low. So many disclosure laws have built-in penalties, which won't require much of an effort for tenants to enforce. Consequences for landlord nondisclosure range from monetary penalties to various unique results. Contrary to many tenants' beliefs, tenants are not usually entitled to consider the lease null and void.
Monetary Penalties Specified by Statute
Several disclosure laws carry specified monetary penalties. At the top of the list is the federally-required disclosure of lead paint hazards. First violations may result in a "notice of noncompliance" from the federal government, giving landlords time to notify tenants. Civil and criminal fines of up to $16,000 per violation are also possible. Of course, if a tenant is injured as a result of not knowing about the presence of a lead paint hazard, a civil judgment can result, of unknown amounts.
Some disclosure statutes provide for either a specified monetary damages award, or "actual damages," which are the actual losses suffered by the tenant. For example, many states require landlords to disclose to tenants whether they will end up paying for common area utilities, such as heat and electricity. Failure to explain these arrangements commonly carries a preset damage amount or "actual damages," which could be the cost to the tenant of paying for these utilities.
Oregon has a particularly harsh consequence for landlords who fail to tell prospective tenants about an outstanding notice of default, foreclosure action, or any legal proceeding to enforce a lien or sale: The tenant who moves as a result of such nondisclosure is entitled to twice the monthly rent or actual damages, whichever is higher, plus all prepaid rent.
Non-Monetary Consequences Specified by Statute
Some state disclosure rules specify an act or result that is not monetary. A common disclosure rule concerns the owner or agent's identity and address. Typically, failure to provide this information results in the tenant being able to pay rent and deliver legal notices and demands to, and expect upkeep from, the person who negotiated the lease or manages the property.
Criminal Sanctions
In rare situations, failure to disclose results in a criminal sanction. For example, Florida requires landlord disclosure of any special understandings involving lower rent (rent concessions). Failure to comply is a misdemeanor. In Nevada, someone who fails to notify a tenant that the rental is the subject of a foreclosure action becomes liable for prosecution for a deceptive trade practice, which is a misdemeanor and carries with it a fine and liability for any tenant's actual damages. And in New York, which requires landlords to notify tenants of impermissibly high levels of VOCs (volatile organic compounds), violations are a criminal offense, subjecting the landlord to jail time and fines for every day the violation continues.

This article analyzes Target Corporation (NYSE:TGT) to determine if TGT is a suitable investment for the Dividend Growth Investment strategy by utilizing information from the company profile and history.
Here are the 4 reasons TGT was added to my portfolio
1.) Target's resilient nature during recessions
2.) Long history of consistent dividend payments
3.) The short-term impact of the security breach
4.) Current valuation
As a long-term buy and hold investor, I want to invest in a company that won't cause me to lose sleep. One of the main questions I ask myself when considering investing into a company is, "Will this company be around in 20 years or more?" Additionally, due to the uncertainty of the market, I want to invest in resilient companies that perform well during recessions.
Will Target be around in 20 years?
TGT's company profile states it "offers both everyday essentials and fashionable, differentiated merchandise at discounted prices." However, I examined the median household income of TGT's average customer, and compared that to its main rival Wal-Mart (NYSE:WMT). I believe selling discounted essentials is not TGT's specialty, WMT practices a low-price marketing strategy of selling everyday essentials such as food, clothing, and household goods. WMT's average customer household annual income ranges from $30,000 to $60,000. TGT follows a similar marketing practice, but instead focuses on discounted designer items, clothing, and home décor. TGT's customers have a median household annual income of $64,000.
Discount stores tend to do well during recessions, but we are not investing in TGT purely for this reason. We also want to know how resilient Target is during a down market. Target tends to recover in down markets well when compared to the S&P 500, despite experiencing a big decrease in price share along with the market.
Source: Morningstar
It is hard to foresee a resilient discounter such as TGT going bankrupt in the near future. I feel confident that TGT will be in business for many years to come.
Dividend Payout History
Target currently has an attractive dividend yield of 3.06%, which is above the 5-year average of 1.84%.
Source: Morningstar
Target has been paying dividends since the initial public offering in 1967. This is more than 45 years of constant dividend payments. A constant dividend payment history is great, but I have more interest in the company's dividend policy during recession.
Source: Morningstar
As a long-term investor, I want to invest in resilient companies that can survive the downturn of an economic cycle. One of my preferred research methods is to see how a company performed and dividend policy during the 2008-10 recession period. If the company increased the dividend during the recession, it is a good sign that the company will continue with the dividend payouts.
True dividend increase
Another factor I take into consideration is company's payout ratio.
Target has increased its dividend consistently for over 10 years. Below, I factor in the payout ratio using the true dividend increase calculation.
TGT payout ratio increased 13% to 29.2%: Increase of 124.6%
TGT dividends increased 0.26 to 1.32: Increase of 407%
It is a positive sign TGT's dividends increase outpaced the payout ratio. This means I can assume Target will continue to pay dividends during the recession.
Target's recent security breach
How will the recent security breach affect Target's share price? The most similar event that comes to mind is TJX Companies Inc.'s 2006-07 security breach.
(I found a detailed article from Motley fool comparing the two breaches after some brief research.)
TJX Companies Inc. (NYSE:TJX)'s share price actually increased to 34.5% over the next 3 years following the security breach. To get a better understanding how the breach impacted TJX, I compared the charts 3 years prior and post security breach, with the addition of TJX's biggest rival, Ross (NASDAQ:ROST), to see how TJX performed. (Ross was used as a comparison since both companies specialize in discounted clothes.)
Before the security breach:
Source: Google/Finance
In the 3-year period prior to the security breach, from 2004-06, TJX actually outperformed ROSS by nearly 20%.
Source: Google/Finance
After the security breach, from 2007-09, Ross outperformed TJX by 10%. We should keep in mind there are number of events besides the security breach that also affected price changes during the 3 years of "Great Recession".
The above graphs are useful, even though they cannot actually forecast Target's share price. We learn that while there might be negative short-term effects on the share price, a company such as Target will not have a permanent impact because of a security breach. Further, since the Target security breach seems to be on a smaller scale compared to TJX's, it should have less of an impact.
(I did not go into detail when I researched on the data security breach. Readers, please do your own research if you want to have a deeper understanding of this issue.)
Target Valuation
Source: YCharts
P/E vs. Price
Price and P/E have a direct relation. From the past 5 years, if you purchased TGT closer to the average, rather than below the P/E, the price tended to trend upwards. The opposite holds true; if you purchased TGT below P/E, the price tended to trend downwards. Right now, the P/E and Price graphs appear to intersect, and with the current negative news, I foresee TGT's share price to continue decreasing in the short term.
P/E Average
Current TGT P/E is at $15.1, which is lower than the industry average. However, even with the recent decrease in share price of the stocks, TGT P/E (15.1) is still above the 5-year average TGT P/E (14.45)
Source: Morningstar
TGT is an attractive buy in the current market for investor that plans to hold onto the stock for a long term for these reasons: 1) the company's resilient nature during a recession 2) the long history of dividend payments 3) the temporary decrease in price due to the recent security breach and 4) The current attractive valuation of TGT. Even though Target is being traded near its 56-week low, the P/E and price relation tell me the price of TGT can still drop closer to the 5-year average P/E ratio.
Based on these reasons, I added half of my position of Target into my portfolio @$56.41 on February 14. I plan to add more if TGT drops below $52. This transaction will be recorded in my 2014 Q1 portfolio update. You can follow the progress of my 30 and Under Portfolio that focus on dividend and growth investing.
The intention of this article is to draw your interest to research on this investment (TGT), so please do your own research before investing. Invest at your own risk.
Disclosure: I am long WMT, TGT. I wrote this article myself, and it expresses my own opinions. I am not receiving compensation for it (other than from Seeking Alpha). I have no business relationship with any company whose stock is mentioned in this article.

text: Posted March 12, 2014 · Report post I'm just curious what you guys think about this. Pernell had a great start to his career in Baltimore, but since then he has kind of fallen off a little bit. Overall, I think he is an odd fit in the 3-4 scheme. He needs to have his hand in the dirt every play as a 4-3 DE. Just wondered what you guys thought about trading McPhee to a team needing a defensive end (I was thinking the Cowboys, but a few other teams that could use depth could be the Bears, Giants, or maybe even the Jaguars). We have Terrell Suggs, Elvis Dumervil, Courtney Upshaw, John Simon, Adrian Hamilton, and even McClellan who can play OLB. If on board, what would you expect/want for him? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Category: NOTEBOOKS & TABLETS
Tablet sales will account for half of the entire PC market in 2014 with the bulk of those sales going through mass retailers and Apple shops according to new research from Canalys
The biggest winners are Samsung and Apple who are both set to grow their market share over what they did in 2013.
Canalys claims that sales of tablets are currently running at 40 percent in Q3 2013, they predict 50 percent of PC-style tablet sales will be achieved by the end of 2014 - reaching 285 million units.
Desktop units will be 17 percent of the market, with sales of 98 million. Notebooks will account for the remaining 33 percent, at 192 million sales, Canalys said.
Canalys senior analyst Tim Coulling saying the tablet market is an area where Apple is continuing to push share as it brings in good margins for the US Company.
"Apple's prioritisation of protecting gross margins will see its PC market share continue to decline," he said. "However, Apple is one of the few companies making money from the tablet boom. Premium products attract high-value consumers; for Apple, remaining highly profitable and driving revenue from its entire ecosystem is of greater importance than market share statistics."
Meanwhile Microsoft is set to improve its position, although only relatively to its already lowly status in the market. Canalys predicts it will grow from two percent to five percent in 2014, driven in part by its deal for Nokia, according to research analyst Pin-Chen Tang.
"2014 will see another major shift for the company as the Nokia acquisition brings it a step closer to being a fully-fledged smart mobile device vendor," he said."As a vendor Microsoft needs to prove to channel partners and consumers that it is in this market for the long haul. Balancing the competition with its vendor partners and embracing a 'challenger' rather than an 'incumbent' mentality is essential.
He added that Microsoft must address the issues caused by having several variations of its operating systems in the market. "A critical first step is to address the coexistence of Windows Phone and Windows RT," he said. "Having three different operating systems to address the smart device landscape is confusing to both developers and consumers alike."
To underline the growing demand for tablets, Canalys predicts that by 2017, 396 million units will be sold, as the form factor continues to prove highly enticing for both consumers and business users.

I started my stay when it was a Homestead Suites and it was converted to an Extended Stay America. My family and I are relocating to the Germantown area and I came several months in advance to my family. I experienced no issues during my multi month stay. I read the recent reviews and did not experience any of problems stated. In fact, I didn't see one insect at any time in my room. All front desk personnel were polite and provided the necessary services when asked. Like any place else some people are easier to deal with than others, but no one was ever really rude. I have to think real hard to come up with any real complaint. Since no place is perfect my complaint would be I wish they had more channels to choose from. However, they do have two Showtime channels. Sci-fi, TCM, etc. would be a great improvement. I'm just not an ESPN person. However, I did enjoy some of the old time reruns on the ESPN Classic. Since I knew I would be staying multiple months, I brought a DVD player and I used it to hook up to Netflix through the free Wi-Fi. I got all the movies I needed to keep me occupied. The Wi-Fi was upgrade to be faster during my stay. Compared to the price of other hotels in this area this place is a great deal for what you get. The personnel I enjoyed working with during my stay were Amena, Stephanie and Brock.,

This Lent, take a 40-day devotional journey with Dietrich Bonhoeffer. Click here to sign up.
Now comes the sixth prediction of Jesus' death in Luke, three more than Mark notes (Lk 9:22, 44; 12:50; 13:32-33; 17:25; the Markan parallels are in Lk 9 and here). Luke stresses these predictions to keep the specter of Jesus' approaching death before the reader and to make the reader aware that Jesus was fully preparing the disciples for life after his physical departure from the earth.
Here Jesus addresses the Twelve. Throughout the entire journey he has stressed that he will suffer, and throughout the entire journey the disciples have struggled to understand how this can be. The Old Testament indicated that suffering would occur in Jerusalem. Which Scriptures are in view is debated. Daniel 7 is not really a good possibility, since the Son of Man's suffering is not referred to in that passage. Daniel 7 serves only as the eventual background to the Son of Man title, a connection Jesus explicitly reveals in Luke 21:27. The suffering imagery must come from another set of texts. Jesus seems to be combining various motifs. The suffering servant is a major theme of this teaching (Is 50:6; 52:13—53:12). Another key may well be the "deuteronomistic" critique which describes continual national unfaithfulness and suggests that a prophet will not suffer outside of Jerusalem (Lk 13:31-35). In addition, opposition to Messiah may play a role (Ps 2; Lk 24:44-49; Acts 4:24-28).
In moving to specifics, Jesus does not discuss the chief priests and scribes. Rather, he highlights the handing over of Jesus to the Gentiles. The text does not specify whether the handing over is part of a divine permission (reading a theological passive) or is a subtle way to depict national unfaithfulness. But the appeal to scriptural realization means this is not an either-or question. God will permit the nation to hand over the Messiah. The act reflects its hardness of heart (Acts 2:22-24). Jesus will be mocked. The fulfillment comes in Luke 22:63-71 and 23:11, 36, where Jesus is subjected to the ridicule of proud scoffers (Bertram 1972:306).
Jesus will be flogged, die and be raised. This was either the dreaded verberatio or the less severe fustigata. Usually before crucifixion, verberatio was used; for discipline fustigata was applied. The criminal was flogged until blood was drawn (Suetonius Claudius 34 and Domitian 11; Hengel 1977; Sherwin-White 1963:27-28).
All this detail does not enlighten the disciples. The point about their lack of comprehension does not mean that they do not understand his words, but that they cannot grasp how this will fulfill Scripture or how Messiah could suffer. They just cannot see how fulfillment can come this way. The unveiling occurs in 24:13-49.
Jesus knows where his journey leads. He will suffer the rejection of his own and of the world. He suffers knowingly and willingly. He has the courage to stand up for God and to suffer according to his will.

Suzy* came to Samsungwon when she was 14 months old along with her 2-year-old brother. Up until that point, her father had been "raising" them in his one-room apartment. The social welfare workers who brought Suzy and her brother to the children's home believed that the father would leave the children home alone for several hours at a time while he went away to work. When they arrived, they had a lot of bruises and looked under-nourished. They had only the clothes they were wearing.
At the time, KKOOM provided some funding so that Suzy and her brother could get some new clothing, and we also purchased strollers for both of them, since they were both so young.
Fast forward another year, and Suzy is now in preschool, thanks to your help -- and so is her brother. Here's a brief write-up from Suzy's "house mom," Ms. Kim.
*"Suzy" is a pseudonym.
Thanks to your support, four (4) college students who grew up at Samsungwon, an orphanage in Gumi, South Korea, have been awarded college scholarships from KKOOM. Each scholarship is worth approximately $500 USD and will help the students pay for expenses like books and housing. The scholarships are renewable for each semester the students are enrolled in college as full-time students.
Here's a brief list of this semester's scholarship recipients and what they're studying:
Our next report will include a more detailed update about these students and their progress. Thank you for your continued support.
If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact me directly! Thank you!
Most little girls dream of new toys, field trips, or other exciting things. My guess is that most little girls never stop to consider their furniture -- things like their dresser drawers or bookshelves. But up until a few months ago, the girls at Samsungwon, an orphanage in Gumi, South Korea, did not have their own dressers. Rather, they had their own drawer or two in a dresser shared with two or three other girls. They shared bedroom closets and desks with 3-4 other girls, so they really had never experienced furniture that was truly their own.
That changed this fall when KKOOM had the opportunity to replace all of their furniture (for approx. 35 girls) with new pieces. Every middle school and high school girl now has their own wardrobe or dresser (depending on the space constraints of each room), and all of the girls have their own space for clothing, books, and other belongings.
One of the staff members told me, "the girls were so excited about their new furniture that some had trouble sleeping the first night." This really surprised me. I remember the restless nights before the first day of school, excited to see my friends, or before my birthday... but no, I can honestly say, the prospect of a new dresser has never excited me quite like that.
The girls also texted me pictures (which are included in this report) with notes like "our furniture is SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO pretty! You have no idea!" and "We are really happy. We haven't been this happy in a long time."
Most of us, the supporters of KKOOM, get to live pretty comfortable lives. We have chairs to sit in, desks to study at, tables to eat upon, etc., and we give these items just passing glances and thoughts as we go about our daily lives. But through the lenses of these 35 girls, and the impact that your gifts have had on them, I've seen these basic necessities in a whole new light.
It's not just furniture that you've helped provide. It's a mark of ownership, and thereby, it's a mark of identity. You've helped give these girls a stake in their own lives. Thank you.

LETTER: Parents' role key in education
Parents key in education
Itâs interesting to note that student engagement and student success decline at roughly the same rate as parent involvement (âPoll: Engagement drops at each stage in school,â Jan. 21).
You want your children to be successful in school? Monitor their grades and attendance weekly, and provide appropriate consequences if they fail to do what they are more than capable of doing. Keep doing this until they âget itâ or they graduate from high school.
For 20 years, Iâve asked my A and B students why they are successful, looking for some educational secret. The number one answer: âMy parents donât accept Câs.â

Skip to comments.Akin's Rape Remark Draws Tea Party Pressure for Him to Quit
Posted on 08/20/2012 3:37:51 PM PDT by Clintonfatigued
Pressure mounted on Rep.Todd Akin to quit his Missouri Senate race today despite his repeated refusals to step down over his incendiary comments about rape.
Earlier in the day, moderate Republicans campaigning in bitterly contested battle ground states called on Akin to exit the race. By late in the afternoon, conservative elements of the party, including an influential super PAC and the Tea Party Express called on him to terminate his race for the good of the party.
Tea Party Express Chairman Amy Kremer said Akin's remarks that women rarely became pregnant from "legitimate rape" were "unfortunate and inappropriate" and added that they had become a distraction that would cost Republicans the chance to beat Democratic incumbent Sen. Claire McCaskill and ultimately any chance at winning the Senate.
"It is critical that we defeat Senator Claire McCaskill in November, but it will be too difficult to achieve that with Todd Akin as the conservative alternative. He should step down and give conservatives a chance at taking back the Senate in November," Kremer said in a statement.
The legal deadline for Akin to withdraw his name from the ballot is 5 p.m. Tuesday.
(Excerpt) Read more at news.yahoo.com ...
Todd Akin and his staff are having a prayer vigil tonight and will be making an announcement sometime tomorrow. I know it's difficult, but hope he does what's needed for the country. Too much is at stake.
Sounds like Clayton Williams is alive and well...
We just have to pray he does the right thing and drops out. Akin will lose this seat now if he stays in the race, and with his loss our chances of retaking the US Senate are seriously endangered.
Hi, do you have a link to that news?
I say stop trying to overthink it in defending this guy. He is not ready for prime time as a candidate. He has to go or we lose that senate seat, and possibly it could have ramifications nationally as the Dems will keep referring to his statements.
Drop out.
YahooObamaDNCTalkingPoint News is going nuts on this story! This is no less than the 5th story these biased prix have written on this today alone!
Regardless of his intentions, regardless of his motivations, regardless of his record, this guy is now defined by his bone-headed remark. It was a poor choice of words, and it's not fair, but such is life.
The Dems and the media will be ecstatic if he stays because they can continue gassing about this incident rather than talk about Obama, his record, his lack of transparency, and of course the economy.
It's tough, but he needs to drop out now, so we can get this issue out of the news.
Yup, that's all there is to it. All the good intentions, great ideas, etc, in the world don't matter if someone is a bad candidate who makes dumb statements.
Akin's just not ready for a statewide general election. His statement was so incredibly dumb that it has already essentially guaranteed a loss if he stays in the race. His fellow conservatives would now be forced to run against him all over the country to prove they are sensitive to rape. The guy is done and every effort has to be made to get him out of the race.
LOL, Akin's only remaining supporter IS Claire McCaskill. She basically gave an interview where she was quoted as saying "I find it appalling that these party big-wigs are jumping on him now, he did apologize."
Your game's up Claire, your patsy gave it up well before even you expected it.
He will probably pull a 'Delay' and withdraw on Wed.
LOL, well we still need him to quit the race by 5 PM tomorrow. From what I gather as of this moment, he is determined to stay in the race.
Yes, it was hilarious watching McCaskill defending him. You know she is just counting down the minutes, hoping against hope he doesn't drop out by tomorrow afternoon.
Thanks. I'm pretty sure Akin sees the writing on the wall and he'll hang up tomorrow. He's practically been runover by the GOP establishment over night
I understood what he meant. No big deal.
Just heard on The Mark Levin show that he is going on Piers Morgan tonight. Get each for more faux outrage from the commies at CNN. Wonder if he is having his prayer vigil before or after CNN? This is becoming a ridiculous circus side show.
Unbelievable. This guy couldn't handle Hannity, he's going to get torn a new one by that limey hyena.
It's funny, but...
When a lib pol screws the pooch, most other libs jump in to cover for him/her...all the while screaming "taken out of context".
When a conservative pol screws up (like Akin), most conservatives do not try to hide the truth or make excuses. They demand the pol's ouster.
Libs should learn a lesson from the conservatives.
It does when both the liberal media and Republican establishment want you out along with the "Tea Party" types hostile to social conservatism.
Maybe the Dems will pay him handsomely to stay in the race, so McCaskell will have smooth sailing to re-election.
Two million in ads from McCaskill to help Akin in the primary and now she's not attacking him relentlessly?
Akin and McCaskill are much too cozy.
And if he stays in, they will keep going nuts all the way until Nov. 5th. It's unfair, but it is what it is. If this goes on it will become "Macacazilla" and drown out our message nationwide. We can't afford this. Akin has to go ASAP.
Really? Would that be the social conservatism that has discovered the gene that repels sperm that result from a rape? Did you even read what he said?
Fair or not (IMHO) he just killed any chance at a victory in this election cycle.
I am sick of the double standard. The Dems say and do way worse things and THEIR party stands behind them. ATKINS should stay, F Colter and the rest. In a few weeks this will be all but forgotten. Look at Ted Kennedy, he KILLED a woman and stayed in, Clinton Raped several woman ans is still around. Atkins made a mistake, apologized, now lets move on. Its the RINOs that want him out because he is too conservative for him. WE HAVE TO STAND BEHIND OUR PEOPLE.
I agree to an extent, but IMO this particular situation is not a hill for conservatives to die on.
Its funny, but...

Libs should learn a lesson from the conservatives.
I think the difference is based on principle, but it's not like we have much of a choice in the matter. The libs can get away with it, because they can rely on the media to back them up when they close ranks. We don't even have that option, we'd all be vilified by association.
It does when both the liberal media and Republican establishment want you out along with the "Tea Party" types hostile to social conservatism.
Good point.
Sad to see so many GOP start acting like whiny liberals. Akin apologized, he shows remorse, lets move on
Akin should stay on just to torque the liberal PhonyCons in the GOP
I heard him on Hannity too. He was in denial - detached from reality. I don't even think he was putting on a "game face". He just didn't have a clue as to the effects of what he said. It was sad, really. I wanted to feel sorry for him, but all I felt was anger at his stupidity, selfishness, and obliviousness.
How is it possible that someone of his position could live in LaLa Land? I am dumbfounded.
One person libs did not cover for was Anthony Weiner. They pretty well piled on him immediately and cut him loose.
I know practically nothing about this Senator, but found myself stunned by the colossal train wreck of his comment. Tell me the guy was having a stroke, and he might deserve a pass, but otherwise, let him retire now. Sometimes one big mistake can torch a career. I smell smoke.
Obama did not appear on the scene in 2008 and all of a sudden put this country in on the wrong track. Guys like Akin had their shot and in the majority and did NOTHING to be proud of, if they had they would not have lost the majority in 2006.
Pelosi, Reid, and Barry did this nation great harm when they had the majorities and they controlled both branches from 2008 to 2010, but the GREATEST harm was done by Bush's treacherous boy John Roberts in 2012. Some of the damage done could have been reversed if Bush had done his homework and not nominated a fellow Rockeller globalist elitist.
I cannot defend Akin. I cannot defend ANY Republican currently holding elected office nor can I defend the two bailot guys running on the Repulican Elite ticket.
An unfortunate choice of words, yet I think I know what he meant. Please tell me why this statement is nuclear blast insensitive. I really need to understand.

Our family had a great time here. There was plenty of space for us all to spread out, and everything was quite clean. (We interacted with the woman who cleaned it for us when we first arrived, and she was very accommodating and friendly!) We would definitely go back.
Another great stay!
Another great stay! This is our fourth trip to the location and we have a great time every visit. The home is so clean and fresh and the area is so serene.
The beach is just lovely and the updates to the beach house were very nice. Many naps spent under the "sails" at the beach club.
Thank you again for another wonderful getaway and we can't wait for 2013! THANKS!
Loved Emerald Green
Clean and Quiet Surroundings. Loved the place and would definately go again. The only problem was no internet service.
Great Community and Pool.
Excellent Vacation Getaway!
This property is great! Perfect for a nice, relaxing, and peaceful getaway. Very clean and exactly as described. The veranda off the master bedroom is fabulous with morning coffee. The back patio is screened in and perfect at anytime.
Very close to private beach and pool is right down the street. Lots of golfing options in the vicinity as well.
We are returning again this summer and can't wait!
Activity and Interests
Myrtle Beach with all it has to offer is only 25 minutes North of the condo, and historic Georgetown, a very quaint old Southern town is only 25 minutes South. Other points of interest nearby area: Brookgreen Gardens, Huntington Beach Park and several historic plantation tours.

Build an Interactive Story App with Swift 3
One of the most fundamental types of apps you can create is one with a hierarchical data model and style of navigation. In this course we're going to learn exactly how to do that by building an interactive story app. We'll cover a lot of ground by exploring navigation controllers, hierarchical data models and custom view controllers. We'll go over how to accept user input, how to create and layout views programmatically, how to play sound effects and much more. At the end of this course, you will have the knowledge to build many of the basic apps you see in the app store.

Upcoming Releases
The following items are scheduled to be released soon. You can also visit our content roadmap for more info.
User Interfaces in VR
User interfaces are present in websites, mobile apps, and any other type of software that's designed for human interaction. In virtual reality, user interfaces must be considered in the context of real-world space, similar to an elevator button or a physical book, as opposed to being stuck on the "screen" or the user's head.
Web Accessibility Compliance
Your content is clear, your images are responsive, your code is clean, and your layout flows beautifully on all the most popular devices. You think you're ready to launch, but you might have overlooked a crucial aspect of your website's development. If it's not easy for a person to access your content, regardless of the way in which they use the internet, there's still work to be done. Developing for accessibility should be part of the standard workflow, but it's often given too little attention. In this course, you'll learn about the standards in place to guide developers in creating a web that is accessible to all users as well as techniques to help bring your projects up to those standards.
File Handling with PHP
PHP can do so much more than include files. In this course we'll explore reading and writing files from a directory. We'll also take advantage of built-in parsing functions for working with common file formats to read and write CSV, XML and JSON data.
Angular Basics
Get started with Angular, a front end framework for building robust, cross-platform, client-side applications. In this course you'll learn how to configure your environment, install dependencies, and get up and running with an Angular application. By the end of this course you'll be able to build your own Angular application. This course teaches the basics of Angular, versions 2 and later. For Angular 1, or AngularJS, please see our AngularJS (https://teamtreehouse.com/library/angularjs-3) course.
Using Entity Framework with ASP.NET MVC
In Entity Framework Basics, you learned how to use Entity Framework to persist data to a database within the context of a console application. In this course, you'll learn how to use Entity Framework with ASP.NET MVC.
Object-Oriented Python (Refresh)
Sometimes simple scripts with functions in them just aren't enough. Eventually you'll need logical models of your work and that'll lead you to creating custom classes in Python. Object-oriented programming is a large topic. It provides us some amazing tools, though, so it's one of the most beneficial things to learn about in Python. First, you'll learn how to build basic custom classes. Then, you'll expand them through inheritance. And for some extra power, you'll also learn how to take control of Python's built-in classes to make your own more powerful while doing less work. Finally, we'll put everything together into a fun game utility.
Deployment with Capistrano
Deploying a web app to a production server involves steps that you're going to need to repeat every time you release a new version, such as pulling the changes from Git and restarting your web server. Doing it manually may not seem too bad at first, but over time the potential for mistakes adds up. So in this course, we're going to show you how to automate deploys to make them fast, easy, and safe. We'll be using the Ruby community's most popular deployment framework, Capistrano.

This review is from: WiFi Wireless USB Adapter for Sony PS3 / Sony PSP / Nintendo DS / Nintendo DS Lite / Nintendo Wii
Pros: * Small and compact
* Technically does the job
(yeah, you know this is gonna be a fun review)
Cons: * Drivers not shipped with unit (just a link to where to download them)
* Doesn't work on 64-bit OS
* MIGHT work on Win 7 (have yet to see this myself)
The big problem is with the driver utility is that on Windows 7 the application opens up, you see it in the taskbar, and then it goes away even though its still running in task manager. Some people apparently were able to make it stay shown by tweaking the "Compatibility" tab of the exe properties, but I could not get it to work with my 64-bit Win 7.
I eventually got it to work by taking my netbook running a 32-bit Win 7 and by using Virtual Windows XP mode I was able to get the application to launch. Once it was launched, there's no easy directions for what you are supposed to do. I specifically just wanted to create a WEP channel for my DS, but it took forever to set up and I don't think its worth it if the only way I can make it work is through my netbook in a Virtual XP mode.
Other Thoughts: Its too bad that there just isn't anything else on the market that accomplishes this shy of getting a router dedicated for your DS/Wii/PSP.READ FULL REVIEW
This review is from: Acer Aspire One AOD250-1613 Diamond Black Intel Atom N280(1.66 GHz) 10.1" WSVGA 1GB Memory 160GB HDD Netbook
Pros: What sets this netbook apart from the other 10" netbooks out there is the Intel Atom N280 Processor, the battery life and Android.
The processor is the N280 instead of the N270, which means it is a 1.66GHz processor instead of a 1.6GHz processor. This isn't as big of a deal as the FSB increase to 667MHz over the 533MHz FSB of the N270 models. This is way more important than the 60MHz processor speed increase.
When I first booted it up, I quickly uninstalled all the garbageware, the free trials and installed all the XP Windows Updates. It runs MUCH faster without all that stuff.
I also installed 2GB of DDR2 667, which has helped out tremendously with multi-tasking. I didn't realize the default memory was DDR2 800, otherwise I would've installed that instead.
I haven't played around with Android too much, but I plan on doing open source development on Android, so having it on a dual boot is awesome.
Cons: There is a current issue on the Acer Aspire One netbooks where they won't come out of standby properly. From what I've read on the interwebs and what I've experienced myself, this can be remedied by changing the power settings. Go to control panel -> power options -> advanced -> de-selecting the "Prompt for
password when you bring your computer out of standby"
Haven't had the issue since.
Other Thoughts: The battery life is fantastic. Most netbooks with 3-cell batteries claim up to 4.5 hours and really get around 3 hours, but this 6-cell battery with the sound off and the screen turned down to its dimmest setting (which is still plenty bright) is averaging me 8 hours a charge on the first 2 charges. Both charges were spent with a moderate amount of multi-tasking taking place (like the removal of the initial garbageware and installation of new programs in the first charge, and some heavy web browsing (around 15 web tabs open at a time) and moderate multi-environment coding (Visual Studio and a GameBoy Advance coding environment) all at the same time.
Handles it all like a champ.
This review is from: GIGABYTE M7700 GM-M7700 Noble Black Tilt Wheel USB RF Wireless Laser 1600 dpi Mouse
Pros: If you have a netbook or laptop and hate using touchpads when you don't need to, I would highly recommend this mouse. This mouse is sturdy in your hand, fits comfortably, and has lots of perks. Of course it has the basic 2 buttons and scroll wheel, but it also has back and forward buttons and scroll wheel click, which you'd be surprised how many small mice do NOT have these.
But probably the best features of this mice are the DPI switching button and the tiny receiver. I like to have a super high mouse sensitivity when web browsing, but when I'd coding or image editing, I want precision from a slow mouse. With the DPI button built in, I can easily have both. The receiver is very subtle when plugged into my netbook, and when you put the mouse away the receiver tucks away inside the mouse.
The power switch on the mouse itself is also nice, as you can turn the mouse off when not using it.
Cons: I would have preferred about 50 grams more weight to the mouse, but its not a desktop mouse like my Logitech G5, so its understandable. Still feels way more sturdy than other small mice I've tried.READ FULL REVIEW
