(For order relating to part of Navaho Reserve in Utah, see New Mexico.)
{Page 900}
SIR: I have the honor herewith to submit for your consideration the recommendation of the Acting Commissioner of Indian Affairs that the Uintah Valley, in the Territory of Utah, be set apart and reserved for the use and occupancy of Indian tribes.
In the absence of an authorized survey (the valley and surrounding country being as yet unoccupied by settlements of our citizens), I respectfully recommend that you order the entire valley of the Uintah River within Utah Territory, extending on both sides of said river to the crest of the first range of contiguous mountains on each side, to be reserved to the United States and set apart as an Indian reservation.
Very respectfully, your obedient servant,
CALEB B. SMITH, Secretary.
The PRESIDENT.
Let the reservation be established, as recommended by the Secretary of the Interior.
(See acts of Congress, approved May 5, 1864, 13 Stats., 63, June 18, 1878, 20 Stats., 165, and May 24, 1888, 25 Stats., 157.)
To the PRESIDENT:
SIR: Upon recommendation of the commanding general, Division of the Missouri, I have the honor to request that the following-described tract of land in the Territory of Utah, embraced within the limits of the Uintah Indian reservation, created by Executive order dated October 3, 1861, and act of Congress approved May 5, 1864 (13 Stats., 63), may be duly declared and set apart by the Executive as a military reservation for the post of Fort Du Chesne, viz:
Beginning at a point 2 miles due north of the flag-staff of Fort Du Chesne, Utah Territory, and running thence due west 1 mile to the northwest corner; thence due south 3 miles to the southwest corner; thence due east 2 miles to the southeast corner; thence due north 3 miles to the northeast corner; thence due west 1 mile to the point of beginning.
Area: Six square miles, 2 by 3.
The Secretary of the Interior states that there is no objection on the part of that Department to the use of the tract in question for military purposes (the selection of which is the result of a mutual agreement), provided it be understood that the same be subject to such right, title, and interest as the Indians have to and in said land, which shall be vacated whenever the interest of the Indians require it.
A sketch of the proposed military reservation is inclosed herewith.
I have the honor to be, sir, with great respect, your obedient servant.
Acting Secretary of War.
The within request is approved and the reservation is made and proclaimed accordingly: provided, that the use and occupancy of the land
{Page 901}
in question be subject to such right, title, and interest as the Indians have in and to the same, and that it be vacated whenever the interest of the Indians shall require it, upon notice to that effect to the Secretary of War.
The Secretary of the Interior will cause the proper notation to be made in the General Land Office.
It is hereby ordered that the following tract of country, in the Territory of Utah, be, and the same is hereby, withheld from sale and set apart as a reservation for the Uncompahgre Utes, viz: Beginning at the southeast corner of township 6 south, range 25 east, Salt Lake meridian; thence west to the southwest corner of township 6 south, range 24 east; thence north along the range line to the northwest corner of said township 6 south, range 24 east; thence west along the first standard parallel south of the Salt Lake base-line to a point where said standard parallel will, when extended, intersect the eastern boundary of the Uintah Indian Reservation as established by C. L. Du Bois, United States deputy surveyor, under his contract dated August 30, 1875; thence along said boundary southeasterly to the Green River; thence down the west bank of Green River to the point where the southern boundary of said Uintah Reservation, as surveyed by Du Bois, intersects said river; thence northwesterly with the southern boundary of said reservation to the point where the line between ranges 16 and 17 east of Salt Lake meridian will, when surveyed, intersect said southern boundary; thence south between said ranges 16 and 17 east, Salt Lake meridian, to the third standard parallel south; thence east along said third standard parallel to the eastern boundary of Utah Territory; thence north along said boundary to a point due east of the place of beginning; thence due west to the place of beginning.

Sledge assumed from the title, because the fight had been spoiled in other threads.
Even if he won that split decision (yeah, now I'm mentioning it), I'd still have made this post with the same title and content, which means it has no relevance towards being a spoiler. It's not like I wrote "Bisping loses, time to change camps". But that didn't stop Sledge singing like a castrato.
There are no martyrs if you kill enough of them.
Tough words. I am shaking and crying over your spoiler and insults.
Get a life.
I'm no gynecologist but I know a cunt when I see one.
I'm no gynecologist but I know a cunt when I see one.
Toastie i use to think you had some good points but to mention that the Bjj coach got spanked by pe da pano in ju jitsu is so ridiculous, does that mean because coture got sparked by liddell that legends should shut down and dean lister has been beat before but top fighters still use him as a ju jitsu coach, i ndon t like mike either but leave being personal with mario out of it.
A great coach is someone who has proved it in an MMA environment. Couture beat Liddell the first time, beat Belfort twice, Ortiz, and now Sylvia and Gonzaga. What the fuck has Neto done, apart from being named after a cheap supermarket?
Sledge, shouldn't you fuck off until you've watched the event? I don't think there's enough sanitary towels to soak up your man period.
There are no martyrs if you kill enough of them.
Hold on a minute so winning 8 man tournaments in russia and brazil where they had no gloves on, does that not qualify ya to be a good coach. Some of the best boxing and other sporting coaches haven t always been the greatest at there sport but they make great coaches ie Manny Syeward and Alex Ferguson, And anyway mario is there to teach the Bjj and wrestling aspect of mma and they have excellent thai and boxing coach there to teach the striking part who all in there own right are excellent in there field of coaching, lets see your credentials superstar.
Bisping looked like he was playing patty cake, not throwing effective shots. So his stand up fails in that department.
Neto winning against nobodies in bumfuck russia / brazil, vs Couture facing top 10 competition in most of his career ... hmm, difficult choice.
There are no martyrs if you kill enough of them.
Ye but a great coach can t make a great fighter, the fighter has to have a certain amount of natural ability to work with and if Bisping has not got power there is fuck all the best boxing coach could do for that, power is a natural thing, buit i tell you one thing you can t deny, is they have him in supreme condition for every fight, and if Bisping is as bad as you say technically least there doing that right.
Power is as much to do with technique as it is to do with physiology. In fact I'd say it has more to do with technique. Most of Bisping's stoppages have come from his opponents gassing, not because he concussed them. He throws weak kicks, and weak punches. His knees aren't bad though, and he has some good elbows on the ground.
There are no martyrs if you kill enough of them.

description: In bonobo society, it's the females that rule the world.

is_us_only: false

title: Bonobo: The Female Alpha

allowUserEmbed: True

name: Get Facts and Photos on Hundreds of Animals

credit: National Geographic

transcript:
This male bonobo chimpanzee may look like a dominant male, but he’s really just a big mama’s boy.
That’s because in bonobo society, the mamas hold lots of power – it’s shared between males and females. This alpha female is one of the group’s leaders.
Don’t believe it? Watch how she snap the sapling, and then struts her stuff in a way that would make any dominant male chimpanzee proud. The message is clear. This babe is boss.
These bossy adult females form strong bonds with their offspring, especially the males. All babies are intimately cared for through the first five years,
But eventually, young female bonobos leave the troop and find another troop to accept them.
The sons stay behind, and the one’s with the most powerful mothers become the most privileged males.
Bonobo mothers almost never discipline their young...even when they steal the food right out of mom’s mouth.
The whole clan benefits from this atmosphere of peace, love, good-vibes and huggy tomfoolery. Instead of body-slamming each other when two parties get in a tiff, these more enlightened beasts engage in a tension-diffusing moment of sexual release… with anyone in close range.
Bonobos are the very embodiment of the phrase “make love, not war.”

Post subject: The Fun Draft Debate: Winning good or bad?
On the heels of our first win, the enthusiasm of the victory has many Saints fans thinking playoff run. While we are by no means out of the playoff chase, the 0-4 hole we dug for ourselves combined with the strength of schedule we face from here on out puts our chances at the post season as a long-shot at best.
What this recent victory did display in this team, if anything else is that they wont go away quietly and that they still have a lot of fight left in them. So, based on the thinking that this team (while competitive) will not make the playoffs but will reel off a winning streak in the process ending up picking somewhere in-between picks 16-20 falling out of the top 15 selections in the upcoming NFL draft. Where do you realistically see the Saints going with their pick with the assumption that they are unable to either trade neither up nor down?
Lets consider for a second that the drafts top 15 selections (in no specific order) goes like this
1. Geno Smith QB West Virginia
2. Jarvis Jones LB Georgia
3. Jon Hankins DT Ohio State
4. Keke Mingo DE LSU
5. Star Lotulelei DT Utah
6. Matt Barkley QB Southern Cal
7. Bjoern Werner DE Florida State
8. Luke Joeckel OT Texas A&M
9. Sam Montgomery DE LSU
10. Eric Reid FS LSU
11. Dee Milliner CB Alabama
12. Robert Woods WR Southern Cal
13. Manti Teo LB Notre Dame
14. Chance Warmack OG Alabama
15. Marcus Lattimore RB South Carolina
Give your top 5 choices the Saints should consider in this situation and your opinion if the run was worth the fall.
First, Ill start off by saying that Ill NEVER root for us to lose! Call me crazy but even if we were 0-15 and needed another loss to secure the top overall draft choice I still could not bring myself to root against this team.
So, to me Yes a run is definitely worth the fall. Yes I understand the odds are stacked up against us. We are missing our coach and our defense is a work in process. I get the fact that this team in the grand scheme of things would likely be better off securing a top 10 selection and building towards rebounding in the 2013 season. Still, I cannot do it. As long as this team takes the field I will root for a win regardless of the situation and let the chips fall where they may come draft day.
Now on to this specific draft scenario
While I will always root for this team to win, I do feel the playoffs are farfetched. Yes we played much better last night but I feel a lot of that was emotion and the season will for the most part turn out to be much more of a struggle without our leader (Payton) on the sidelines. Im not holding my breath for a reduction in suspensions from the commissioners office and the players suspensions are a mute point at this stage in my opinion. I feel this team offensively will continue to me very productive and will be good for at least 5-6 more wins. Defensively, while were improving in our understandings in Spagnuolos scheme concepts. Spags simply does not have the personal required to run his system effectively and so this defense will continue to struggle for the most part while occasionally looking impressive at times (like last night).
I honestly can see a 6-10 to 8-8 season on the horizon presumably landing the Saints in that 15-20 range in the 1st round on the NFL draft. The players I have going 1-15 to me are the blue-chip players of this class and realistically could all be off the board when we select in round one. I think we all understand and realize that changes in defensive personal in likely on its way but with a 100 million dollar quarterback on the roster and the looming contract extension of tight end Jimmy Graham staring us in the face, it seems logical that the front office will likely rely on the draft and not free agency to help solve our defensive woes.
With this thinking, heres my top 5 in this scenario
1. William Gholston DE Michigan State
While I have my concerns about Gholstons ability to turn the edge in the NFL, he is simply the best available at a position of dire need for us. If Spagnuolo can get Gholston to realize his potential then we have a steal but until then potential is what Gholston will hang his hat on.
2. David Amerson CB North Carolina State
While Amerson has had his ups and downs this season at corner, he possesses the size, physicality and crazy ball skills to develop into a stud NFL free safety. Im on record as of saying that I feel a playmaking free safety is almost as big a need for this defensive unit as a dynamic pass rusher is I said ALMOST!
3. Justin Hunter WR Tennessee
I think wed all be fooling ourselves if
We refuse to accept that this offense while still elite, does not severely miss Meachems downfield presence. This above all else is affecting the productivity of our running game because teams simply do not respect our deep speed anymore.
That as long as Sean Payton is our head coach, he is likely to fix a problem on his offense before he will one on his defense. Remember when he took Meachem in the 1st when we desperately need a corner.
Hunter is a better version of what Meachem was coming out of Tennessee. Hes a big physical receiver who is without a doubt the top deep threat in this class.
4. Jonathan Jenkins NT Georgia
Yes Jenkins currently plays NT is a 34 defense at Georgia but that didnt stop the Saints from drafting Cam Jordan out of Cal in 2010. Jenkins is a massive tackle but hes also extremely disruptive on the interior of the defense. His athletic ability for such a big man is amazing and shows he would have no problems playing in a 43 base front.
5. Xavier Rhodes CB Florida State
Rhodes scheme wise is the perfect fit in Spags system. Hes a big physical corner with great press man coverage skills. New Orleans have found success in Florida State corner Pat Robinson and the selection of Rhodes would give the Saints a great young corner tandem and allow Corey White to move inside to free safety filling yet another need.
What say you?

I would take every help for our defense line or secondary, but pease no receiver! You can fid good receivers in the later rounds. Colston is still great, Moore is good to when healthy and Morgan can become a very good deep threat. Ohh and we still have Toon on injured reserve who looked good in preseason!

As of now we are in a zone base scheme due to personel but Spagnuolo routinely has coveted bigger physical press man coverage corners in the past. Why do you think Corey White keeps getting playing time over Johnny Patrick.

What does gum have in it?
gum is made of rubber which is the same kind of rubber that they make tires from but with a softer material and flavor so your basically chewing rubber "Companies carefully gu…ard their recipes for making chewing gum, but all chewing gum has the same basic ingredients. However, specific ingredients, give the gum delicious taste, are kept as secret. The basic ingredients are: gum base, softeners, sweeteners and flavorings. The ingredient that makes your gum 'chewable' is gum base. Gum base is the main ingredient in modern chewing gum A flavor ingredient in chewing gum has been found to provide long lasting, high intensity and high quality flavor. The flavorings are added last. The most used flavors in chewing gums are: peppermint (called only mint), fruit, spearmint (a variation of mint flavor), menthol (a mint related flavor). Other flavors are synthetically created and perfected in the lab. What exactly are the ingredients in the chewing gum depend on the type of gum being made."

Daniel Jeremiah (Former Ravens Scout) Breaks Down SB Roster
Awesome read! It's great having a former personnel guy on staff for this sort of insight into the FO's draft thinking.
Haloti Ngata, DT (2006): I was in the Ravens' war room during the 2006 NFL Draft. We were looking for a big, athletic defensive tackle to help protect Lewis, someone who could also provide some interior pass rush, and we'd had our sights set on Ngata well over a month before draft day. When it looked like the Cleveland Browns might select Ngata one spot ahead of us, Ozzie made the call to send them a late draft pick in order to move up a spot and secure the talented defensive tackle from Oregon. Newsome believes a strong defense is built up the middle. With Ngata, we were set with elite players at defensive tackle, middle linebacker and free safety.Anquan Boldin, WR (2010): During my time in Baltimore's personnel department, the extent to which Newsome appreciated Boldin's play with the Arizona Cardinals was never a secret. The wide receiver's toughness, attitude and timely playmaking were qualities that were plentiful on the Ravens' defense but sorely lacking on the other side of the ball. I always thought Ozzie saw an image of himself in Boldin: a clutch player who could be a third-down security blanket for a developing signal-caller. Boldin has been outstanding during his time in Baltimore

Re: Daniel Jeremiah (Former Ravens Scout) Breaks Down SB Roster
Ray Lewis, 37
Matt Birk, 36
Ed Reed, 34
Anquan Boldin, 32
Vonta Leach 31
Terrell Suggs, 30
On the Niners you've got: Randy Moss, Carlos Rogers, Leonard Davis, David Akers, Justin Smith, Isaac Sopoaga all in their 30s.
The media keys in on our guys over 30 -- particularly on Ray. That leaves everybody with the impression that we have an "old" team. It turns out that the facts seem to imply the old vs. young story line in this Super Bowl is overblown.
Re: Daniel Jeremiah (Former Ravens Scout) Breaks Down SB Roster
QB: Flacco (28) - Kaepernick (25)
RB: Rice (26) - Gore (29)
WR 1: T. Smith (24) - Crabtree (25)
TE: Pitta (27) - Davis (28)
LT: McKinnie (33) - Staley (28)
LG: Osemele (23) - Iupati (25)
C: Birk (36) - Goodwin (34)
RG: Yanda (28) - Leonard (34)
RT: Oher (26) - Davis (23)
We actually have a younger offense overall.

Re: Daniel Jeremiah (Former Ravens Scout) Breaks Down SB Roster
The Ravens being "old" argument is just a perfect example of the media being lazy. I remember Jamie Dukes (of all people) saying that in fact, the Steelers were an older team by comparison. One of the few times that someone actually tried to dispell the age myth.

Re: Daniel Jeremiah (Former Ravens Scout) Breaks Down SB Roster
The Ravens have the 3rd oldest roster in the league; 9ers are 8th. How many of those players are starters, that's debatable.World Domination 3 Points at a Time!

Re: Daniel Jeremiah (Former Ravens Scout) Breaks Down SB Roster
The 6 players you mentioned are all critical contributors and leaders on their sides of the ball. This is not a team that is fundamentally built around a young core with a few seasoned vets sprinkled in as "glue guys." It's the other way around--veteran core, young players that step up at times, although that is changing to a certain degree with Flacco, Rice, and Torrey Smith becoming core players on offense. But even they were far less impactful without Boldin's veteran presence and McKinnie's stabilization of the LT position.
The media keys in on these older players because they have historically been the best and most important players on the roster. The decline in our defense this year is directly attributable to the declining play of our defensive veterans in part due to injuries. That's why our age is not a problem that can be ignored and swept under the rug.

Re: Daniel Jeremiah (Former Ravens Scout) Breaks Down SB RosterDisclaimer: The content posted is of my own opinion.
Re: Daniel Jeremiah (Former Ravens Scout) Breaks Down SB Roster
IMO the 2012 Draft Class could wind up being just as good as the 2008. Bernard Pierce looks like a stud. KO has the potential to be a pro-bowl caliber LG and Upshaw has stepped into JJ's spot nicely. Incredible draft selections. Not to mention we probably already have next year's starting center on the roster who has sat a season behind the vet Birk.

This is my first post, but I read often the forum.
I have found a way to make the PS3 BD Remote to work with LIRC and any application that uses it, including of course XBMC :-)
I'll try to explain how I did it.
I use Ubuntu Jaunty, maybe it works with other Linux distros.
NOTE: The language I use on the desktop is Spanish, so maybe the translations to English I make are not so accurate, and sorry for my poor English
1.- Install blueman
For that, you must include the PPA for blueman
Include the following lines to /etc/apt/sources.list
deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/blueman/ppa/ubuntu jaunty main
deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/blueman/ppa/ubuntu jaunty main
After that execute:
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install blueman
2.- Pair the PS3 BD Remote
Normally after installing blueman, will appear the bluetooth icon on the top bar of the gnome desktop, if not, you must execute the applet:
Once we have the blueman applet running, we click with the secondary mouse button on the bluetooth icon and select "Configure new device".
While the remote is in discovery mode (pressing enter + start for 5 secconds) we will see our remote on the device list, click on it and click "next", the wizard will offer 3 options "random key", "my own key", and "not pairing", we select "not pairing" and click next. On the next screen will see 2 options "input service" and "don't connect", we select "input service and click next.
Now we have the remote paired permanently with the PC, to check it, open "devices" right clicking on the bluetooth icon, and will see the "BD Remote Control" paired, on the right it will show the signal strength. On the devices list there is a button to trust on a device, we must trust on "BD Remote Control", it will show a little yellow star on the icon.
This has created a input device, to see it execute:
cat /proc/bus/input/devices
this will show the actual input devices on your system and will have something like this
I: Bus=0005 Vendor=054c Product=0306 Version=0000
N: Name="PS3 Remote Controller"
P: Phys=
S: Sysfs=/devices/virtual/input/input8
U: Uniq=
H: Handlers=kbd event6
B: KEY=80000000 0 700000 1083c100 8c00ea 0 6bc00000 1 0 8000 1102 c0000801 801680 0 0 10000ffe
We are looking for the info on the line
H: Handlers=kbd event6
3.- Configure LIRC
To configure LIRC we must edit /etc/lirc/hardware.conf and include the following lines:
The last line include the name of the input device that was created on the previous step, in my case "/dev/input/event6"
Then restart LIRC
sudo /etc/init.d/lirc restart
4.- Learn the remote codes of the PS3 BD Remote
You may record your own codes with the command:
sudo irrecord --device=/dev/input/event6 --driver=devinput PS3.rem
NOTE: The PS3 remote send one event when you press a key, and another event when you release it, so when irrecord needs a key pressed we must press many times different keys.
Or use the one I created

NEW YORK CITY -- A new investment fund has begun raising money for the math-based currency that tech enthusiasts say could revolutionize online transactions. SecondMarket's Bitcoin Investment Trust, or BIT, represents the latest effort to bring the virtual currency into the mainstream. It might also fuel the debate around the legitimacy and legality of a form of money that exists outside the conventional banking system, and has already attracted scrutiny for being used in illicit transactions. | SEE STORY
BIT is a private, open-ended trust invested exclusively in bitcoin. The sponsor of the trust is Alternative Currency Asset Management LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of SecondMarket Holdings Inc. The fund was created for accredited investors looking for exposure to bitcoin through an investment vehicle instead of a direct investment. According to SecondMarket, BIT solves the challenges of buying, storing and safekeeping bitcoins.
Slowly, bitcoin is becoming a form of payment by a growing number of businesses. Utica, NY's Upstate Networks recently demonstrated how a vending machine can accept the virtual currency. | SEE STORY
For investors, an uncertain regulatory environment for bitcoins is a big risk. Regulators are examining whether the currency is dodging financial oversight, allowing its use by money launderers, drug traffickers and tax evaders. Making headlines this week was a story about an online marketplace allegedly selling illegal drugs to tech savvy Long Island and New York City residents. To make sure money exchanges could not be traced back to customers, according to sources, the website used bitcoins for transactions. | SEE STORY

WATCH: Naomi Campbell admits she's in recovery from drug addiction
(Power 105.1) - Naomi Campbell visited the Breakfast Club recently where she chatted with Charlamagne, Angela Yee, and DJ Envy.
The super model didn't directly respond to Charlamagne's question about drugs being a huge in the modeling world.
What Naomi did say is that drugs like cocaine are heavy in any field. She continued to express that everyone has their reason to do drugs and it's unfair to peg models with cocaine addictions because they need to stay slim.
What she did say is that she is in recovery from drugs. Naomi was unafraid to admit this because it's part of her recovery process.

Zendell, William C. Kirby and Erica M. Zendell In 1985, Don St. Pierre Sr. became President of Beijing Jeep, the troubled joint venture between American Motor Corporation and the Chinese government to build Jeep Cherokees in China. Just over a decade later in 1996, leveraging contacts from his time in the automotive industry, he founded ASC Fine Wines with his son, Don Jr. Despite many challenges, from building a distribution network from the ground up to Chinese Customs throwing Don Jr. in prison, the St. Pierres prevailed, and ASC was standing tall as China's number-one fine wine importer by volume and value in 2013. ASC had developed a reputation for quality of product and service, beating out the competition of private wine importers and state-owned enterprises. What lessons had this father-son team learned in their 20 years of doing business in China? Would ASC make the transition from being a family-run business to a part of Suntory Holdings and still thrive? Could ASC under its leadership continue to adapt to the changing market for fine wine in China?

One person was killed and eight others injured when a car rammed into a student clinic and day spa in Gilbert on Friday morning.
The car ran through the front of the building near Baseline and Power roads, Gilbert Police Lt. John Lyle said.
Lyle said the car was driven by an 87-year-old woman who was leaving a bank, hit a passenger car in the parking lot and careened into the building.
The car crashed through a classroom with eight students and one teacher at Spa Pima, a student clinic and day spa associated with Pima Medical Institute, an unidentified employee of Spa Pima told CBS 5 News.
Student Lacey Gruntorad, 22, was killed in the crash.
"It didn't seem real. I was waiting for her to text me and say she was ok," said her close friend Brandon Sharp.
Sharp said he is helping her mother and family cope with the loss. He told CBS 5 News the family is in shock, but not angry at the elderly driver.
"I can't blame anybody. It's a horrible, horrible accident," he said.
The spokesperson for Spa Pima said four people were taken to the hospital with injuries. Two of those injured were released as of Friday night and the other two victims remain in the hospital but are expected to be OK.
Neither the driver nor a passenger with her were hurt, Lyle said.
The students were being trained and were not working with customers, the employee said.
The crash happened just after 10 a.m.
No other information was immediately available.

The House approved a rule governing floor consideration of a bill that would approve the construction of the northern leg of the Keystone XL pipeline, setting up a Thursday vote to pass the bill.
Members approved the rule for H.R. 3, the Northern Route Approval Act, in a 228-185 vote. Nine Democrats supported the rule, a sign that several will support the final bill on Thursday.
The vote followed a debate that allowed both sides to revisit all of their familiar arguments for and against the pipeline. Republicans cast the bill as one that creates jobs and helps boost energy supplies in the U.S., and one that President Obama has needlessly delayed for years.
"It creates American jobs, it increases our energy independence, it strengthens our national security and it will contribute to lower gas prices," Rep. Daniel Webster (R-Fla.) said.

When You're Ready to Take Your Next Step -Weekend Retreat with Mary LoVerde
Mary LoVerde
Thursday, April 18, 2013 at 2:00 PM - Sunday, April 21, 2013 at 11:30 AM (PDT)
Event Details
The Invitation…
When You're Ready to Take Your Next Step
I am in awe and admiration of the attendees who spent 4 days getting clear about what they really wanted and went home with a new plan and a host of strategies to help them make their plans come to life after my recent retreats. They've reported that in just 14 days they have already made some remarkable changes!
Here's what they said:
"I could not - or would not - have made these profound shifts on my own. You changed my life more positively in a few days than I have in years."
"I can't think of anyone who wouldn't benefit from this experience."
"Heartfelt thanks. The transformation you have facilitated in my life has freed up a centered joyfulness and a flow of well-being and abundance that fills my days!"
"I loved the fine food and wine, sunshine and walks by the ocean, naps and candles, and exploratory conversations with people who have become new friends. I honestly have no recommendations for improvement."
I hope you can join me on either April 18-21 or June 13-16 in Corona del Mar, (5 minutes from Orange County Airport, CA.) I intentionally keep the groups small (6 attendees) so each person gets individual attention.
The Program based on my new book, The Invitation, When You're Ready to Take Your Next Step
Are you feeling stuck or facing a challenge and aren't quite sure what to do about it?
Do you have a big dream but the naysayers are telling you, "It'll never work?"
Do you dream about a relationship or adventure and would love to know how to get it?
Would you welcome a step-by-step process to find out what you really want personally and professionally?
If you said yes to any of these questions above then you are cordially invited to attend a weekend retreat with life balance expert, Mary LoVerde. With her trademark blend of wit, warmth and wisdom, Mary will help you shine a light on what might be holding you back so you can finally move forward.
In this supportive atmosphere you'll receive an abundance of valuable lessons that position you to lead the life you want now… not someday. If you are ready to quit what is not working and embrace and act on what does then take your next step and say 'yes' to The Invitation.
Want to clarify what's next for you? This retreat is the perfect way to identify the invitations that are being extended to you – and learn how you can accept them to create a life that feels right.
You'll benefit from being immersed in a supportive community that contributes to each other and you'll receive personalized one-on-one attention from Mary. This retreat will fill up quickly so register today.
April 18-21 or June 13-16
Arrive in Corona del Mar, CA- check in from 2-5 PM. Lounge poolside, go for a walk along the beautiful beach or simply settle in, unplug and relax into a rhythm of renewal.
Drinks at 6 PM and dinner at 7. You'll enjoy our healthy food that will delight your palette and nourish your body and soul.
Friday and Saturday:
Get caught up on some much-needed sleep, hike on the beach or join us for a group morning meditation.
8- 8:45 AM: Breakfast
9 AM: Retreat begins. (Agenda distributed upon registration)
6 PM: Dinner and a special exercise to help you create the life of your dreams.
Retreat concludes at 11:30 am.
$1499 includes breakfast, lunch, dinner, wine and snacks, and all retreat materials.

You will also receive a pre- and post coaching session with one of the country's top career coaches. One hundred percent of past recipients have said their session greatly exceeded their expectations. ($500 value)
The retreat is held in a lovely gated condo community in the heart of ocean-side Corona del Mar, California just 45 minutes from LAX or 4 miles from the Orange County airport. You'll receive a list of near-by hotels with your registration.

Council of Europe's Anti-Racism Commission publishes conclusions on the implementation of its priority recommendations in respect of Albania, Austria, Estonia and the United Kingdom
Strasbourg, 19.02.2013 – The European Commission against Racism and Intolerance (ECRI) today published conclusions on the implementation of a number of priority recommendations made in its country reports on Albania, Austria, Estonia and the United Kingdom which had been released in 2010.
As part of the fourth round of ECRI's monitoring work, a new process of interim follow-up has been introduced with respect to up to three recommendations made in each of ECRI's country reports. Two years following the publication of each report, ECRI addresses a communication to the Government concerned asking what has been done in connection with the recommendations for which priority follow-up was requested.
On the basis of the response from the Government and information gathered from other sources, ECRI draws up its conclusions on the way in which its recommendations have been followed up. These conclusions concern only the priority recommendations and do not aim at providing a comprehensive analysis of all developments in the fight against racism and intolerance in the State concerned.
Through the new interim follow-up procedure, ECRI seeks to assist Council of Europe member States in fine-tuning their response to the recommendations made in its country reports.
The conclusions, including the country reports, are available here [Albania, Austria, Estonia and the United Kingdom].
ECRI is a human rights body of the Council of Europe, composed of independent experts, which monitors problems of racism, discrimination on grounds of ethnic origin, colour, citizenship, religion and language (racial discrimination), as well as xenophobia, antisemitism and intolerance, prepares reports and issues recommendations to member States.

The Werra river snakes its way for 300 kilometres from its source on the Rennsteig ridge through Thuringia , northern Hessen and southern Lower Saxony – often alongside the former inner-German border. At Hannoversch Münden, the Werra and Fulda merge to become the Weser river.
The World Heritage region of Wartburg Hainich combines two of Thuringia's most significant tourist destinations: historical Wartburg Castle and the ancient beech forests, which not only reflect the two sides to the UNESCO coin – culture and nature – but also offer a world of opportunities for visitors now and in the future.
Up in the north east of the March of Brandenburg, wind turbines rotate on the horizon and the hustle and bustle of city life feels like a distant memory. And yet here is a place with its finger firmly on the pulse: regional producers, energy suppliers and small family businesses are all driving sustainable development as part of an eco-friendly tourism network.
There has always been something special about the Lippe region. It was here that the legendary Battle of Teutoburg Forest took place in 9 AD, when the Teutons, led by Hermann the Cheruscan, stopped the Romans' northern advance. The region still proudly refers to itself as 'Hermann's Teutoburg Forest'.
The Spree Forest: central Europe's most beautiful inland delta. Rivers and streams flow slowly between tranquil villages, where Sorbs still practise their age-old customs and boatmen guide their wooden punts along the narrow waterways at a leisurely pace.
The Black Forest: home of the world-famous cuckoo clocks, the red pom-pom hats, the iconic farmhouses and the legendary gateau. It is a place where traditional crafts like clockmaking and customs such as the Alemannic fasnacht carnival are cherished. In 1937 the area around the Feldberg (the highest peak in Germany that doesn't count as a true mountain) became the first conservation reserve in Baden-Württemberg.

i think the rules were originally going to include soccer kicks, people i knew were scheduled to fight and were training to stand up from sidemount and put the boot in. i got my face stamped on during these sessions haha it wasn't full-on, thankfully.
at the rules meeting, allegedly, one guy there might as well have walked in off the street, he allegedly stood there telling a bemused crowd of fighters and trainers that not only were soccer kicks going to be illegal, so was punching from standing to ground. (!!)

I was at an event last year that had 12 fights on the card. By about 11pm, only 6 had taken place. The event was then stopped for a raffle where around 40-50 prizes were given away. Not even exaggerating. It took about 30 mins.
Thing was, so many people had left by the time of the raffle that the same people were winning over and over again. Highlight was a fat lass who won about six Iron Gym pull-up bars and a haircut from the local salon.
I'm just bitter because I really fucking wanted that haircut.

Men's Basketball Drops Season Finale to Catawba
Brevard, N.C. – Coming off a win on Wednesday night over the Newberry Indians, the Brevard College men's basketball team battled back from a slow start to push the Catawba Indians to the limit before falling 77-64 in their season finale on Saturday afternoon.
The Tornados had a rough first half, as BC shot only 25 percent from the floor and scored only 17 points in the opening 20 minutes of play.
The Catawba Indians jumped at on top early, outscoring the Tornados 13-4 in the first seven minutes of play.
The Indians pushed their lead to double digits at the 7:59 mark of the first half, but did not give in there, as they outscored the Tornados 17-8 in the final eight minutes of play to take a 38-17 lead into the halftime break.
In the second half, the Tornados turned things around as a layup by sophomore Jonathan Whitson at the 19:32 mark, triggered a 12-0 BC run over the next four minutes of play to cut the Catawba lead to nine at 38-29.
Brevard would get as close as nine points on three separate occasions in the second half, but could not get any closer as the Indians had an answer to ever Tornado offensive run.
A jumper by junior Joseph Chilton at the 2:26 mark cut the Catawba lead to eight at 69-61, the closest that the Tornados had been since early in the first half.
However, Catawba made some clutch shots down the stretch, including hitting 5-of-6 free throws in the closing minutes of play to seal a 77-64 road win over the Tornados.
The Tornados were led by Whitson's 17 points and 12 rebounds, his eighth double-double of the season. Fellow forward Chilton had 15 points, while sophomore Shane Galloway added 13 points off the BC bench.
For Catawba, sharp-shooter Rob Fields had a game-high 19 points, hitting 3-of-5 three- pointers for the game. Forward Antonio Houston had 14 points, while Isaac Rose had 12 points, hitting free-throws down the stretch to help seal the win for the Indians.
Saturday afternoon's game was the season finale for the Tornados, as they finished their second year as an NCAA Division II provisional member and their first year playing a full South Atlantic Conference slate.
The Tornados finished 4-24 for the season.

Vegan Ice Cream Enters a Golden Age
July 21, 2017
This test measures the amount of potassium in the fluid portion (serum) of the blood. Potassium (K+) helps nerves and muscles communicate. It also helps move nutrients into cells and waste products out of cells.
Potassium levels in the body are mainly controlled by the hormone aldosterone.
Hypokalemia test; K+
A blood sample is needed. Most of the time blood is drawn from a vein located on the inside of the elbow or the back of the hand.
Many medicines can interfere with blood test results.
You may feel slight pain or a sting when the needle is inserted. You may also feel some throbbing at the site after the blood is drawn.
This test is a regular part of a basic or comprehensive metabolic panel.
Your doctor may order this test to diagnose or monitor kidney disease. The most common cause of high potassium levels is kidney disease.
Potassium is important to heart function.
It may also be done if your doctor suspects metabolic acidosis (for example, caused by uncontrolled diabetes) or alkalosis (for example, caused by excess vomiting).
Sometimes, the potassium test may be done in persons who are having an attack of paralysis.
The normal range is 3.7 to 5.2 mEq/L.
Note: mEq/L = milliequivalent per liter
Normal value ranges may vary slightly among different laboratories. Talk to your doctor about the meaning of your specific test results.
The examples above show the common measurements for results for these tests. Some laboratories use different measurements or may test different specimens.
High levels of potassium (hyperkalemia) may be due to:
Low levels of potassium (hypokalemia) may be due to:
If it is hard to get the needle into the vein to take the blood sample, injury to the red blood cells may cause potassium to be released. This may cause a falsely high result.

Anyone who tries to google skincare products hits a brick wall of fake reviews, SEO spam and hysterical pseudoscientific terror. Vogue's Christina Mueller writes that the blind-studied, peer-reviewed answer to your question is probably "Retinol":
Imagine for a moment that a revolutionary skin-care ingredient was discovered. It visibly smoothed out wrinkles and obliterated breakouts; it improved skin texture and tightened pores into tiny little nothings. ... Such an ingredient does exist, and chances are some form of it is currently languishing in a corner of your medicine cabinet. It's retinol. It isn't sexy. It definitely isn't new. In fact, it was discovered 81 years ago, making it a veritable dowager compared with all the fresh new super-ingredients that have since come onto the anti-aging scene. For the past few decades, it has been hiding in plain sight—but with a few new developments, it is stepping back into the limelight.Read the rest

O'Reilly falsely claimed "activist judge" granted Geneva protections to Guantánamo detainees
Research ››› ››› GABE WILDAU
FOX News Channel host Bill O'Reilly misrepresented a November 8 federal court ruling on military tribunals set up to try Guantánamo Bay detainees, incorrectly claiming that the ruling declared the detainees to be prisoners of war (POWs). But the decision did not grant detainees POW status -- a designation that would entitle them to Geneva Convention protections. Rather, U.S. District Court Judge James Robertson's ruling, which specifically concerned suspected Al Qaeda member Salim Ahmed Hamdan, declared only that the detainees might be POWs under the Geneva Convention. According to the ruling, President George W. Bush therefore had no right to deny Geneva Convention protections to Hamdan, since the administration had failed to "convene a competent tribunal to determine whether Hamdan is entitled to such [POW] status."
O'Reilly opened the "Talking Points Memo" segment on the November 9 edition of FOX News Channel's The O'Reilly Factor by denouncing "[a]nother ruling by an activist judge that puts us all in danger." He then explained: "U.S. District Court Judge James Robertson ruled the Bush administration had no right to declare the man [Hamdan] an enemy combatant. Robertson went on to say Hamdan should be classified a prisoner of war and given Geneva Convention protections."
In his ruling, Robertson expressed no opinion on whether Hamdan "should be classified a prisoner of war and given Geneva Convention protections." He simply cited U.S. and international law requiring the Bush administration to convene a "competent tribunal" to determine whether Hamdan fits the classification. The POW classification entitles detainees to trial by court-martial, which affords defendants broader rights to contest the evidence the government uses against them. Only an "enemy combatant" can legally be subjected to the military tribunals that the Department of Defense has set up, as the process restricts defendants' rights. Robertson explained:
Hamdan has asserted his entitlement to POW status, and the Army's regulations provide that whenever a detainee makes such a claim his status is "in doubt." ... Thus, the government's position that no doubt has arisen as to Hamdan's status does not withstand scrutiny, and neither does the government's position that, if a hearing is required by Army regulations, "it was provided," 10/25/04 Tr. at 40. There is nothing in this record to suggest that a competent tribunal has determined that Hamdan is not a prisoner of war under the Geneva Conventions.
O'Reilly repeated his false statements even after FOX News Channel senior judicial analyst Judge Andrew P. Napolitano accurately summarized Robinson's ruling:
O'REILLY: All right. So what the Bush administration should have done was not just declare them an enemy combatant, but parade them in front of a military tribunal in Guantanamo?
NAPOLITANO: A fair tribunal in Guantanamo. It would have decided he's a prisoner of war and he gets Geneva protections, [or] he's not a prisoner of war, he goes before a military tribunal. That would have solved the problem.
O'REILLY: But this judge has gone further than that, saying that even the military tribunal designation might not stack up. You read it.
Because he [Robertson] wants all terrorists to be POWs.
NAPOLITANO: No, he doesn't.
O'REILLY: Yes, he does!

Justin Timberlake Gets Asked to the Marine Ball, Too!
Wonder what Jessica Biel thinks about all this?
-Kenneth Thapoung
It's a classic case of what come around goes around. Little did Justin Timberlake know, when he pushed Mila Kunis to accept an invitation from Marine Sgt. Scott Moore to the Marine Corps Ball, Kesley De Santis, a Quantico, Virginia-based Marine would extend the same invitation to him!
People reports De Santis followed the same methods as Moore and posted a video on YouTube asking Justin to the ball, which will be held on Nov. 12 in Washington D.C.
Although Justin has yet to respond to her, De Santis jokes in her video saying, "If you can't go, all I can say is, cry me a river."
The things YouTube can do for a person today are amazing! (Cough, cough, Rebecca Black.)
JT better get his suit ready! Do you think he'll go?

The human diet must provide enough calories to meet daily energy needs, together with essential amino acids, essential fats, minerals and vitamins for proper metabolism. The daily average required of these nuntrients are found in the Recommended Dietary Intake (RDI) tables.
Calories are the measurement of energy stored in foods. The human body uses food as its fuel. In the absence of food, the body uses its reserve fuel (glycogen).
Essential amino acids
Amino acids are the building blocks of protein. When plant or aminal protein is consumed, it is broken down into its amino acids. These can then be used in human metabolism. An absence of one or more essential amino acids over a period of weeks to months can lead to malnourishment symptoms of apathy, diarrhea, inactivity, failure to grow, flaky skin, fatty liver, and edema of the belly and legs.
Essential fats
Three key fatty acids are needed in the diet: linoleic acid, linolenic acid, and arachidonic acid. These are found in grain, vegetable or nut oils.
Only small levels of minerals are needed for proper nutrition. These minerals are scavenged from many sources and it is rare for anyone consuming a regular diet to have a deficiency.
Vitamins serve as metabolic assistants in many vital bodily functions. Vitamins A, B(1,2,3,12), C, D, E, K, and folic acid are required. Defeciencies lead to specific diseases such as beriberi and ricketes.
Effect of storing foods on nutritional content.
For the most part, the body can still use calories, amino acids, fats, and minerals that have been chemically changed during storage. Vitamins are the only nutrient group that can break down to an unusable state.

Does Aeneas grow to fill the shoes of an epic hero, or does he succumb to an animalistic rage, unworthy of a Roman?
The establishment of Aeneas' true character boils down to the last two and a half pages of the epic. By this time, he has completed his mission to conquer part of Italy, and by doing so, fulfills the destiny set before him. As a sign of Aeneas' victory, Juno terminates the dark anger that has characterized her throughout the tale. Instead of trying to thwart Aeneas, she "changed her mind. Then she withdrew from sky and cloud" (lines 1142-43). As a result, the only section of the entire poem that is not weighed down by Juno's anger and the delays that result from it are the last lines, 1145-1295.
Up until this point, Aeneas' decisions have not been his own; he has been driven by Fate to fulfill his destiny in Italy, and by Juno's destructive interference. The only decision he made apart from this drive was to spend several years living in Carthage with Dido—a decision which ended in disaster when he left Carthage and Dido committed suicide out of despair. However, because he has now entered into his destiny, Aeneas has the ability to act on his own resolve for the first time.
Released from everything he was driven to do, Aeneas forgoes the opportunity to show mercy toward his enemy Turnus; instead he kills Turnus, "terrible in his anger" (1290). Even though Virgil seems to praise Aeneas throughout his poem, in this last act of victory the hero refrains from the deed that would prove him to be the good man Virgil commends.
Aeneas succumbs to an animalistic rage that is unworthy of a Roman, but in doing so, grows to fill the shoes of an epic hero. During his trip to the underworld, Aeneas' father describes to his son the duty of a Roman: to "pacify, to impose the rule of law, to spare the conquered, battle down the proud" (1153-54). After battling down the proud—that is, Turnus—Aeneas fails to spare the conquered.
Without damaging his own victory nor diminishing Turnus' humiliation, Aeneas could easily have let Turnus live, especially after Turnus begs for his life to "bespeak your mercy for old age in Daunus," his father (1279-71). Instead, Aeneas asks, "Shall I be robbed of you?" before butchering his fallen foe (1292). The following—and final—lines hint at Virgil's opinion of this act: "With a groan for that indignity [Turnus'] spirit fled into the gloom below" (1297-98). Though it is Aeneas' right to kill his enemy, by not showing mercy to a fallen man, he fails to live up to his father's expectations of a Roman.
On the other hand, mercy for the conquered is not a necessary qualification for an epic hero.
In fact, the phrase "epic hero" really only refers to a few characters at this point in literary history, the most notable being Homer's Achilleus and Odysseus. Neither of these two heroes spared his conquered: Achilleus, obsessed with a god-like rage because of Patroklos' death, does not stop at Hektor's death, but drags his body behind his horse, mutilating and fully dishonoring it. Similarly, Odysseus spares none of his wife's suitors, but kills them all as vengeance for their dishonor and rudeness in his household for the last decade. In the case of Achilleus, it is this very quality of god-like rage that makes him such an exciting hero to follow. He will stop at nothing to achieve his goals, and would rather die gloriously in defiance of Agamemnon than go home in safety and live a long, peaceful life.
By killing Turnus, Aeneas acts very much like Achilleus: his rage over Pallas' death leads him to show no mercy, but instead exclaim that "this wound will come from Pallas: Pallas makes this offering and from your criminal blood extracts his due" (1292-94). Thus, Aeneas steps into the shoes of an epic hero, while failing miserably to meet the high Roman standard.

Thanks mate.was a day ill never forget
Twitter @ricbrad
Great read dude, was tense reading your fight commentary haha!
Congratulations on the win, keep this up and keep us informed of whats next, found it very interesting
Sig awaiting witty quote from someone.
The video of my fight is up.
It is plain to see that my fitness is garbage but its all there. Feel free to critique it and give me pointers on where I could have done better or just enjoy a slightly unfit fighter go three rounds
Twitter @ricbrad
This has made for some real good reading. Liked the rolling in the second. So whats next on the cards you looking to go pro some point in the future? Amateur rules look tricky in getting that finish
I was humbled by the whole experience and have immense respect for my opponent for stepping in on 6 days notice.if he'd have had a full training camp and I didn't have experienced corner men talking me thru it and reminding me exactly what to do I'd have lost. It was the strangest feeling cos i ha forgot everything I'd learnt up until i was told hat to do
Twitter @ricbrad
Hello mate, not been on here for a bit. Congratulations on the win but even more for just getting in there and doing it and letting us in on your experience. Your fight day posts are a real insight. Thanks again and keep up the hard work and the blogging.
Blog: fightingatforty.blogspot.com
Nice fight man, in no way am i an experienced fighter but from what i saw:
2:32 You had a triangle from mount screaming out to you when he put his hand on your hip, takes some flexibility but if you sink it then its almost 100% finish. Also when i mount personally i like to isolate an arm and start to play with it, start looking for your kimura/americana and inexperienced guys will freak out and reach over with the other hand, giving you the arm triangle in a plate.
10:10 with the triangle attempt as he pulled out you could of gone for the omoplata.
Also when in half guard personally i prefer to use the lockdown, its a lot easier to control their base and get a sweep.
Nice fight though and you never looked in danger.

DEFIANCE, Ohio (AP) -- A sheriff's office in northwest Ohio says four people have died in what is being investigated as a triple murder-suicide.
Authorities say the bodies were discovered Thursday night by a family member who was checking on the welfare of the four in Defiance, about 60 miles southwest of Toledo. The four people were last seen Wednesday at about 3 p.m.
Officials have identified the dead as Robert Garza Sr., his wife, Christine Garza, daughter, Zoila Garza, and granddaughter Rebecca Garza. No ages were provided by officials.
Authorities say Robert Garza Sr. is believed to be the perpetrator. Defiance County Sheriff David Westrick told WANE-TV that a handgun was found in the home and is believed to be the weapon Garza used.
He said there were no signs of a struggle.

I'd like to be able to say that an alpha/beta release will be ready before 2012 but I'd rather not commit to anything at this stage!

Tour of duty: Pastides visiting military installations
University of South Carolina President Harris Pastides is on a mission.
Pastides is participating in the JCOC (Joint Civilian Orientation Conference) Sept. 11-16 with some of the nation's top civilian leaders.
Hosted by the U.S. Department of Defense, the trip includes visits to U.S. military installations, the locations of which cannot be disclosed prior to the trip. Pastides is traveling with leaders from government, business and industry and is visiting U.S. Army, Navy, Marine, Air Force and Coast Guard installations. The trip will conclude with high-level briefings at the Pentagon on Sept 16.
Pastides is sending daily updates to his blog: http://web.sc.edu/wpmu/president/.
The event is the U.S. Department of Defense's oldest outreach program and the only one sponsored by the U.S. secretary of defense. It was established by Secretary of Defense James V. Forrestal in 1948 as a course for top-flight civilian leaders to present an integrated picture of the military establishment and deal with national policy, the problems confronting the United States in pursuing its policies, and the economic, political and military means to carry out that policy.
Today, JCOC is coordinated through the Office of the Assistant Secretary of Defense for Public Affairs.
The mission of the JCOC is to increase public understanding of national defense through first-hand observation of the military services, with the specific objectives to the following:
- Acquaint participants with the strength and readiness of the U.S. Armed Forces through personal observation of Army, Navy, Air Force, Marine Corps and Coast Guard activities.
- Facilitate the candid exchange of information on defense matters among senior civilian and military defense officials and JCOC participants.
- Provide the American public opportunities to obtain a better understanding of national defense policies and programs from opinion leaders who will share the firsthand observations and knowledge they gained during the conference.

Fox News: "Cynical" Obama Campaign Probably Wanted Health Care Repeal
Blog ››› ››› SIMON MALOY
After erstwhile team player Chief Justice John Roberts led the Supreme Court in upholding the Affordable Care Act, Fox News has spent the day trying to convince themselves, if not the rest of us, that this is excellent news for Republicans and Mitt Romney -- to the point of arguing that President Obama's "cynical" political team would have preferred the law be struck down entirely so the whole issue would just "go away."
A little while ago, Megyn Kelly sat down to talk with Chris Stirewalt, Fox News digital politics editor, about the electoral implications of the Supreme Court ruling. Stirewalt argued -- in all seriousness -- that President Obama's re-election team in Chicago were pulling for a full repeal.
STIREWALT: I can sum it up this way: at the White House, it's a good day. The president's probably very happy that he was vindicated by the Supreme Court. But out in Chicago, at the president's campaign headquarters, this can not have been the happiest news. I'm sure, from a cynical political perspective, they much rather would have had this issue go away and the Supreme Court take it down so the president could go rally the troops. Instead, it's Romney's troops who are rallied.
This is a real stretch, and here's Nate Silver of the New York Times explaining why:
It is not as though, if the law had been struck down, Republicans would have stopped talking about the folly of the legislation. Members of the public, in mostly opposing the law, had not been objecting to its technical details, some of which they actually supported when quizzed about the specific aspects of the health care overhaul.
Instead, it was to the impression that it represented an overreach on behalf of Mr. Obama -- at a time when there is profound skepticism about the direction of government and the efficacy of its policy -- that left him vulnerable.
When the dust settles, it seems implausible that Mr. Obama would be have been better off politically had his signature reform been nullified by the court. Then Mr. Obama's perceived overreach would have had the stench of being unconstitutional.
Stirewalt's analysis is, thus far, the absurd apex of Fox News' health care coverage today. It was preceded by a parade of GOP officials chest-thumping about how they're so angry and energized now, fond reminiscence of the heady days of 2010 when shaky-cam videos of barely coherent tea partiers screaming at Democrats were all the rage, and endless repetitions of the word "tax" (in accordance with Republican messaging).
But I suppose we can forgive Fox News for acting a bit irrationally. They clearly expected the ruling to go the other way and no one really handles betrayal all that well.

Feminism | Posted by Ama K on 08/17/2012
I was born and raised a Christian. From the time I came out of the womb, I was immersed in a highly religious family, and I lived most of my life with blinders on. I never really questioned anything and just accepted whatever was said to me. As I got older, I got more curious and began questioning the beliefs I was raised with more. I still believe in God and consider myself a Christian, but there are many aspects of my religion that I don't agree with.
At church one Sunday, I went to the teen service and the topic that week was virginity and sex before marriage. I personally don't plan on waiting until marriage, but I was interested in what was going …

He became a household name thanks to his lead role in the Christmas classic "Home Alone" and now Macaulay Culkin shows the effects of Kevin McCallister's abandonment in a hilarious new video.
As part of his new web series "DRYVRS," the "Good Son" actor plays an Uber driver with serious mommy issues while passenger Jack (Jack Dishel) tries not to freak out.
Paying back the favor, Macaulay Culkin rocked a t-shirt featuring Ryan Gosling – who happens to be donning a t-shirt of the "Home Alone" star.
If that's too confusing for you, just take a look at the photo above! You may recall, we shared photos of "The Notebook" hunk showing his love for the child star last year when he stepped out in the tee featuring Culkin's adorable mug.
Relationships come and go as people seek out that special someone to spend the rest of their days with, and Hollywood certainly sees its fair share of unsuccessful tries at love.
The year of 2011 witnessed a number of high-profile marriages, though there were just as many couples who decided that it just wasn't meant to be.
Ever since he broke up with Mila Kunis, Macaulay Culkin has been enjoying singlehood. And contrary to rumors, he's not dating a European porn star.
Last week, a picture of the "Home Alone" star and Spanish adult actress Irene Lopez hit the internet, but Culkin says it's just a fan photo.
They split months ago, but kept quiet due to Mila Kunis promoting "Black Swan," and now it seems that Macaulay Culkin has already moved on.
According to Us Magazine, the "Home Alone" star recently paid a visit to Baghad, which is a live sex club in Barcelona, Spain and word has it, the troubled actor had Spanish porn star, Irene Lopez, on his arm.
They were an item for eight years, but now Mila Kunis and Macaulay Culkin have decided to go their separate ways.
The "Forgetting Sarah Marshall" babe and the "Home Alone" star confirmed their breakup to press this morning.
His younger brother Kieran is one of the stars of "Scott Pilgrim vs. the World" and Macaulay Culkin was spotted showing some brotherly support at the London afterparty last night (August 18).
The "Home Alone" actor looked to be enjoying himself as he stepped outside for a cigarette while hanging at the Circus Bar in Covent Garden.

When Jesus' friend Lazarus died and Jesus resurrected him we were given this account:
Then when Jesus died again we're given specifics about how he was buried:
We don't need to do fancy scientific studies to prove the origin of the shroud. Just going by scripture, the shroud of Turin is a forgery. in scripture, he was wrapped in strips of cloth, with a separate napkin about the face, not wrapped in a single piece of linen (the shroud).
