Three people were injured early Sunday morning in a one-vehicle collision on Greensburg Road.
According to a Taylor County Sheriff's Office report, Jennifer Lugo, 30, of U.S. 68 in Greensburg was traveling eastbound on U.S. 68 at 1:31 a.m. when she swerved to the right side of the road and struck an embankment.
The report states that Lugo's 1997 Pontiac overturned twice before stopping in a field.
Lugo and her two passengers, her 4- and 6-year old sons, exited the vehicle and got into another car driven by someone else who took them to a home in Campbellsville.

The City invested in the center and now they are giving out grants to get people to use the Center and/or having to pay an outside partner to recoup its investment.
What about this doesn't sound right?

It is the result of politicians making ill-informed, feel-good decisions that cater to a small group.
So now that the City County bargained for 55 "free" events every year, they're trying to figure out what to do to fill the space. Heaven forbid they would have thought about their needs FIRST.

Cline is the only council member still around from that decision. This could be a gret public benefit for any group able to cover the minimal fees.

Mr. or Ms. Benefit: Mr Cline had nothing to do with the decision to give the Sequoia School District a 2.6M contribution to the building of the theatre. Nothing. Nada. The idea came from Council Member Lee Duboc (2002 - 2006) who offered the money to the school district unsolicited. Winkler, Jellins and Collacchi joined her in the vote. I don't recall if Kinney voted for it but, it was probably unanimous. Imagine, $2.6M from the General Fund! The money could have been used to get the Belle Haven Police Sub Station built. On the East side of the freeway the shootings and the deaths mount but on the West side the theatre lives on.
Lets give our new council member, Ms. Carlton a hand for thinking outside the box! I hope she also has some good ideas for how to make the Stanford Medical Center project on El Camino Real a more integrated development than what seems to be the University's initial proposal.

Fill'er Up, Mate: Australian Road Trips
Three quintessential Australian road trips.
A plump Australian blows cigarette smoke out his nose and says what we're all thinking: "They're so beautiful I could look at them all day."
Meanwhile, hornet-like helicopters incessantly chop through the air. They're less annoying the minute I actually get in one. A 10-minute ride costs $58, and seven minutes after laying down my credit card, I'm snapping photos of the rumpled sheet of ocean below.
The walking trails at Loch Ard Gorge, a mile or two on, explore the land above sea-worn tunnels, blowholes, and arches that have wrecked many a luckless ship. The gorge is named for its most infamous disaster--the Loch Ard went down in 1878 with 52 out of 54 passengers, even though it came to grief only about 20 feet from land. The air wheezes with sea mist as waves pummel the rocks and splash skyward. You can actually feel the earth tremble when the surges strike land.
3. The remote southwest corner
I'm as far away from home as I can get without swimming--on the opposite end of the planet, with New York City somewhere beneath the soles of my feet--yet few places on earth seem more American. Driving south out of Perth, a city of skyscrapers, suburb tracts, car dealerships, and gas station mini-marts, things rhyme far more with Houston or Miami than with the pseudo-British settlements of eastern Australia.
After a bland 100 miles or so, just below the town of Bunbury, the southwest tip of Australia juts into the Indian Ocean and the landscape bursts into a thousand shades of green. In the 50-odd miles between the northern and southern capes of the bulge is Leeuwin-Naturaliste National Park, a coastline of thundering waves, untouched beaches, and death-wish surfers who brave curls with names like the Gallows and the Guillotine.
In Yallingup, I check in at Caves House, amid gardens high above the moody sea. It's a creaking manor with a sweeping veranda, antique white-tiled bathrooms, and dark hallways lined with 1930s photographs of the staff dressed for tennis. I'm so enraptured by the time warp that in the morning I can't help gushing to the desk clerk. She nods sadly. "Glad you liked it," she says. "We got the word last week that we're all getting the boot." In a month, Caves House would be handed over to a company for conversion into a luxury resort.
I drive to the coast's far southern tip, near Augusta, where the Indian and the Southern Oceans meet and chew furiously at the shoreline. Humpback and southern right whales are known to frolic in the foamy waters beneath the Cape Leeuwin Lighthouse. When I ask about the seas, the lighthouse's middle-aged, cardigan-wearing ticket attendant mistakes me for a surfer. "Redgate Beach is going off today," she reports. "Be careful. There's a nasty rip."
This remote corner of Australia is home to more than 60 wineries, which flourish thanks to sunny summers and surrounding waters that ward off frost and drought. It's called the Margaret River Wine Region, and the town of the same name is a laid-back artists' retreat of coffeehouses and galleries. Encouraged by raves from several people at a coffee shop in town, I lunch at VAT 107, which uses local organic ingredients for dishes like spicy quail, honeycomb ice cream, and grilled marron--a cobalt-blue freshwater crayfish that is native only to southwest Australia and can grow to more than a foot long.
I rent a cottage for the night at Burnside Bungalows and Organic Farm. It's run by Jamie and Lara McCall, who fled Perth for the wine country a few years ago with their three young sons. Guests stay in airy, hand-built cottages with kitchens, woodstoves, and views over the paddocks, and they're even welcome to help themselves to food from the harvests--olives, macadamias, avocados, apricots, and mulberries.

This is an article with content gleaned from Hyper-V forum threads - you could consider the input here based on true stories.
The intent of the article is to explain the concepts of snapshots specific to Hyper-V. The reason for posting the thread is that most of the key concepts are covered as well as specific scenarios provided from real world trials.
To view the architectural components using the online viewer for the Windows Server 2008 R2 Hyper-V Component Architecture Poster, click the image.
An often encountered issue is that Windows Server 2008 administrator starts to get low on disk space, and so begins deleting unneeded snapshots. Using the Hyper-V manager console, they delete the snapshot subtree.
However, the avhd file is still in the snapshot folder and they get the error "the file is used for another program and can not delete". Then they shut down the VM and can see that the merge progress going, but they get impatient and and turn off the VM.
This and other Hyper-V shapshot issues are discussed in this video: Ben Armstrong on Hyper-V Snapshot Common Issues
This blog article explains Confusion over Hyper-V and Snapshots: http://www.aidanfinn.com/?p=11935
You must wait for the merge process to finish. Then you will be able to delete the .avhd file.
So the FAQ is: what is the right way to delete un-needed snapshots?
The process is:
See also:
Cause: - the pause critical state means that you don't even have enough space to run the VM. Temporarily attach a drive to the host and Export the VM to
that drive - you can use a USB drive if necessary. After the export is finished, you can delete the original (then delete the VHD files of the original).
Then copy the folder that was created by the export process back to the host storage and Import.
VM -> snapshot -> install patch, test patch, approve patch -> Delete snapshot
-> power off VM -> wait -> power on VM.
VM -> snapshot -> install patch, test patch, patch is not approved -> revert
(technically you are still running as a snapshot)
The AVHD is not merged with the VHD while the VM is running - the application in the VM must suffer downtime for the merge to happen after a snapshot is
deleted.The hypervisor actually knows that it has to perform a merge, and it is waiting for the VM to be powered off in order to perform it. If the VM is never powered off, the merge never begins.
In the UI you see that the snapshot is gone - really only the meta information of the snapshot is gone - the disk state of the snapshot continues, until the VM is powered off.
The merge only happens if the snapshots are deleted. If the snapshots are not deleted, they remain no matter the state of the VM.
Checkpoint = SCVMM term (VMware Virtual Center term also)
Snapshot = Hyper-V Term
In the MSFT world, these terms are interchangeable. Do not confuse this with a VMWare checkpoint - that is a different thing (the use case is similar but the implementation is very different)
Both SCVMM and Hyper-V manager offer snapshots/checkpoints for the same use cases (the terms are 100% interchangeable). If the Integration Components are installed in the VM (and running) then a running snapshot of hte VM is allowed.You can always take an offline (non-running) shapshot. SCVMM does apply some rules that the Hyper-V manager does not. Other than that SCVMM simply uses the Hyper-V technologies to perform the exact same actions.
Q: If we keep the snapshots (one per month), will it affect the live migration?
A: This is a design issue. If you are running Hyper-V R2 then all of your snapshots and VHDs are stored together, thus allowing migration to happen in
all cases.
Q: If you have over 10 snapshots, will it affect VM performance?
A: It can. Most folks avoid this (and it is recommended to) fo a VM that is running in production as it introduces a potential performance hit, but also
additional IO overhead on the disk system (a read can be spread across all disks in the chain, not just the latest - a write affects only the latest -
thus extra work for reads as there are more files involved)
Q: Will it merge take longer since it has 10 snapshots?
A: Most likely. The reason is that each disk is merged one by one into its parent, until the last merge happens.
If your requirement is zero downtime, then I (very frankly) recommend using a more traditional backup solution and not using snapshots. Or using SAN level back-up, snapshot, etc. tools (sheer speed).
Actually, the running VM has the latest state(I created some new files) when I delete the snapshots even through the snapshots are not there. If I reboot the VM with snapshots deleted, VM has all my latest created files. Just wonder how do these latest changes keep (in memory?) even if the snapshots are not there? If I do not shut down the VM to let merge process to begin, how long can I keep this latest state even though the snapshots file are not there ?
This latest state exists in a differencing disk. The .AVHD that you see in the storage location of the VM. when you create a snapshot a differencing disk is spawned. And gives you the ability to return to a point in time (the time the snapshot was taken) by simply deleting the latest differencing disk and making a new one. When you delete a snapshot - it disappears from the UI - all the physical bits of the snapshot still exist, it is only not displayed in the management console - but all the pieces still exist until the merge is complete.
Q: Only recently have I discovered the evil of running snapshots in a production environment. I have inherited a 2008 Server running one VHD which has one active snapshot which all my users are connecting to. The AVHD files have grown large one is 200Gb the other is 250Gb. I have removed all the older snapshots by deleting them from the UI and brought down the server last night to allow the merge. After 7 hours the merge reached 25% and I unfortunately had to bring the server backup as my users were now jumping up and down.
My issue and question is that I can only get approx 8 hours downtime for the merge. Can I run these merges in 8hr increments starting the server each time. My ultimate goal here is to get back to one AVHD file and eventually merge this with the VHD and get rid of snapshots all together.
A: The best option would have been to delete one snapshot at a time.
Power off the VM, delete one snapshot, allow it to merge, assess the time involved, make a judgement call, move to the next or wait until the next window.
What is happening in your current state is that during the power off - the system is merging all of the snapshots together, one at a time (the total is shown in the UI, but it is many steps, once for each AVHD).
If one snapshot is fully merged, then space is freed and the process moves to the next. If you need to pow on the VM an a merge has not finished, it is essentially undone and you continue in your current state - until you can provide a longer window. Since the merge is incremental it goes one snapshot at a time, it is just that there has to be enough time for one to complete before the next can begin - the order cannot be changed.
If you are running Server 2008 R2 there is an option (this is specific to Server 2008 R2 and requires free local storage) - you can power off the VM, create a new snapshot and then you can export the snapshot (not the 'now' but the snapshot).
This will create an export that contains a single VHD.
You can then Import this Export of your VM and be back to a single VHD with no snapshots. Verify it. Delete the original from the UI (then manually delete the VHD - BTW when you delete the VM from the UI, it will sit and background merge all of the snapshots into a single VHD - you have to wait for this to complete before you can delete the VHD without error).

On playing in Foxborough...
"I have a high regard of our opponent. The way they've gone about their business for not just a short period of time, but a long period of time. We have not won up there in Gillette Stadium. We know we're going to have to play extremely well. Our players are looking forward to it, they really are. To that challenge and there are a lot of things at stake for us. That's where our concentration is. We know and we've been told obviously the playoff scenarios and what is at stake for other teams and we know that the team we're playing has a lot at stake. We feel that we have a lot at stake also. I'm excited about going up there with them."
- Bills Head Coach Doug Marrone
"We're just trying to prepare. We know it's a tough game. We haven't won up there since I've been here and guys are playing for a lot, so we're just trying to prepare the best way we can and try to go out there on Sunday and try to play our best football game this year."
- Bills RB C.J. Spiller
"You see a team that plays extremely hard; they've been that way since when I was even in New York. They're extremely sound. They never beat themselves and they force you when you play them, and my first year in New York we won up there, they force you when you play them to beat them. They're not going to beat themselves. Not only beat them, but to make play. You're going to have to make a play. They've been doing that for a long period of time and I think that I tip my hats to them and the job that they've all done. They're a difficult team to beat, especially at home."
- Bills Head Coach Doug Marrone
On if the Bills relish the role of playing spoiler...
"Not really. We're just trying to go out there and win a game. We're not really thinking about that. We'll let the outside people talk about all that stuff, but we're just trying to prepare the best way we can to try to go out there and put together our best game so far this year."
- Bills RB C.J. Spiller
On how disruptive the Bills defense can be...
"Obviously at times it's been, and again it's a challenge for us as we look at it as those are some very good points and things that for the most part have consistently gone well for us. When you look at it, we're still looking at it from a team perspective and winning games. Right now obviously we're not happy with our results. Disappointed is probably a better way and we have a chance to play another game and get a win. I think that's where our focus is. The defense, we have some good players on that side of the ball and they've played well."
- Bills Head Coach Doug Marrone

text: Mountain State, UC release course equivalencies By The Associated Press August 11, 2012 CHARLESTON, W.Va. -- Most credits earned by students at Mountain State University will either be counted as electives or as nothing at the University of Charleston.The universities released a list of course equivalencies Friday. UC is taking over Mountain State's campuses in Beckley and Martinsburg so students can complete their degrees following the school's loss of accreditation. Other Mountain State students also can complete their degrees through UC.The Charleston Daily Mail reports 342 of the 560 courses released by the universities will either count as credit for elective courses or not at all. In June, the Higher Learning Commission revoked Mountain State's accreditation because of leadership, organizational and integrity issues. The accreditation later was extended to Dec. 31. Mountain State plans to appeal its loss of accreditation.

Michael Lee explained in great detail what the Wizards would be doing for Thanksgiving: dinner at Al Harrington's mom's house, filled with many many items of food.
Via Mike's story:
Al Harrington was ecstatic when he looked at the Wizards' schedule, saw that the team would be in Indianapolis on Thanksgiving and realized that he was going to have a chance to enjoy a home-cooked meal.
Harrington then checked to see what the Wizards planned to do for the holiday and felt guilty about eating a plate of homemade turkey with all the fixings when heard that the team was going to have a catered meal at the hotel.
So he called his mother, Mona Lawton, to see if she would be able to cook a huge holiday meal for all of his teammates. Lawton had never cooked for that many people, but she told her son, "Of course."
This wasn't just a normal Thanksgiving dinner, though. This dinner came with a menu, as seen above. Those are a lot of options. I count eight meats and 12 sides.
Images posted by attendees suggested a good time was had by all etc. etc.

Have you and your friends been thinking about go-kart racing? At K1 Speed Anaheim in Orange County, we can provide you with an unforgettable, adrenaline-pumping experience. Our indoor karting center is unlike any other go-kart track you've been to before. Unlike the go-kart track at your local miniature golf course, our tracks are professionally designed, fully enclosed for racing in rain or shine, and well maintained. We don't differentiate ourselves from the competition simply through our centers though. Our high-performance electric karts are in a different league altogether from the anemic, lawn mower-powered karts you're accustomed to. Capable of speeds approaching 45mph, our electric karts have maximum torque available from 0 rpm and accelerate to their top speed almost instantly. If you're used to the putt-putt-putt of a gas-powered kart as it slowly accelerates to speed, we can assure you that our karts will permanently change your expectations – they provide genuine thrills, whether you're a novice or a seasoned enthusiast.
Once people experience the performance of our karts and see our indoor tracks in person, they'll never want to leave. If you live in Orange County – including Fullerton, Orange, or Anaheim – and want to try go-kart racing, give K1 Speed Anaheim a try. You won't be disappointed.

INFO: Height requirement for ADULT karts is 4ft 10in (58″). All JUNIOR racers must be a minimum of 4ft (48″) tall to race. No mixed JUNIOR and ADULT races.
Though we offer a wide range of race packages for parties of 10 or more, our most popular attraction is our Arrive & Drive race option. In an Arrive & Drive race, up to 12 racers at a time take to the track to race against the clock. Rather than race for position, which can reward pure luck or simply good blocking skills which we highly discourage, our Arrive & Drive races reward consistency, skill, and strategy. Setting a good lap time often involves navigating slower traffic or creating a hole so that you have a free and open track ahead of you. Just like qualifying in Formula One, one wrong move can ruin your lap time and prevent you from taking home the victory. We offer live telemetry so that you can monitor your on-track performance in real time and make necessary adjustments. After the race, you can compare your overall performance to every participant who has ever attended a K1 Speed indoor karting center.
If you're interested in go-kart racing, the Arrive & Drive option at K1 Speed Anaheim in Orange County is for you. As any number of professional racecar drivers can attest to, including Travis Pastrana, Boris Said and Denny Hamlin of NASCAR, Juan Pablo Montoya, and Ron Capps, go-kart racing at K1 Speed is a genuine thrill! In fact, don't be surprised if the adrenaline and sweat are pumping when you get off of the track. We must warn you that speed is addictive though! Many first-time racers buy one race to begin with, but you'll find that many of our regular competitors opt for the combo pack of 3 races!
The Anaheim track features a night time racing experience that stimulates all the senses. Attack the track at speeds up to 45mph as you zip through the tunnels and down the straight aways, while the music and light show round out an exhilarating racing experience. Anaheim is the only track in the USA with two tunnels, which glow with changing colored lights and pass under a 3000 square foot mezzanine that overlooks the racing action.

Late last week, in a conference call with donors, Governor Mitt Romney said what we all know to be the truth: that Obama's reelection plan was to divide Americans across various lines and dole out government freebies, such as health insurance, amnesty, and birth control. The promise of these "gifts" (or the fear of losing them) would then drive out turnout, specifically among those who did turn out: blacks, students, and Hispanics -- and lo and behold, it worked.
For days now, Romney's been blistered by the media for telling a truth about a political tactic that the media itself declared as smart politics in real-time as Obama practiced it. I guess the lesson is that practicing divisive politics with the use of taxpayer-funded freebies is okay, but pointing it out is racist.
What should worry us, though, is that some of the men who seek to carry our flag into 2016 have jumped aboard this Nonsense Train with both feet. At differing levels of indignation, Bobby Jindal, Chris Christie, and Marco Rubio have all publicly criticized Romney for telling this truth.
Speaking only for myself, let me just say that if this is the first step these men are taking towards a 2016 White House bid -- I'm not impressed. Attacking a man for telling what we all know is the truth, is political cowardice. Tactically, though, it's just dumb, and dumb will not win the White House in 2016.

Rubio is awful. Charismatic, charming, Latino. What has he done to protect and defend the Constitution? I HVE seen him championing the UN and ther's a picture of him with "Socialite" Jill kelley and Co. Or Broadwell, whoever of that crew.
He is not . . .
Oh, well.
I agree. I'm very disappointed in this from the GOP. Considering these are people who were all for Romney, throwing him under the bus for stating the ugly truth is just low.
I don't like Senators or Representatives as Presidential candidates anyway.
Little or no administrative experience.
...well this is what you get from Crystal, Rove, toe-sucker, and Reece's candy.... weakknee'd weinies.... IMHO
All I can say is this, hopefully people try, but with voter fraud, a rising generation that cares more for a distorted caricature of history as opposed to some of the very real flaws that existed, and simply stubbornly want to believe and preach the leftist mantras, then have no problem simply committing voter fraud to overrepresent themselves, the time is really looming where people will either cave to go and play like those who have the apparent mortal power (arms, membership, political popularity, celebrity buzz) or try sticking to the basic principles of Christ, continuing to give truth to his name, continuing to encourage his principles. The virtues of Jesus Christ are now pretty much firmly out of the picture, it's all a question now for whomever has a sense of virtue to either abandon it, or stick with it and consider the kind of rewards that Jesus promised.
Got back from the cleanups with my volunteering with the Catholic Charities this past weekend, paints a far better picture, and gives me some hope for the future, aside from the awfully corrupt political picture.
Rubio is not natural born, thus not eligible for the Presidency or Vice Presidency.
It is time for a new conservative party, and the GOP can go the way of the Whigs.
This was the most important election of our lifetimes, and they blew it mightily. Now, they want to blame conservatives, when it was their complete squishy-ness that voters rejected.
Like Lucy holding the football for Charlie Brown, now the battle cry will be—we have to win the Senate and hold the House in 2014. For what? For Boehner and McConnell to give it away?
The GOP gave us Obama—twice. That cannot be forgotten nor forgiven. Time to throw them on the trash heap of history, form a new party and salvage what we can of America before it is too late.
the pigford billions bought hundreds of thousands of votes.
And then it's a second and third step and then it's 'he's the only one who can...'.
Obviously these guys believe in free gifts. I could care less but to backstab after the election - these guys exposed who/what they really are, IMO.
Oh don't worry about it. They simply want two Democrat parties instead of just the miserable tax, borrow and spend one we have now!!!
we are in deep trouble with his views on taxes, immigration and being Jeb Bush's pick anyway..If he were a true conservative, we've have a winner. Why are they going moderate safe after a crushing defeat to a Marxist leader. (head to desk)
Allen West is the only real man in this party I'm afraid
[Just saw this online:]
Romney was technically correct in his statement that 47% pay no income tax. He was strategically incorrect by saying that he's "not concerned about them." What he should have said is something like this: "Unlike the President, who appears to be SO UNCONCERNED with 47% of our population that he wants to keep them dependent on the other 53% who pay income tax, I want to offer that 47% the kind of helping hand they are actually crying for, but to which the President remains deaf: they are crying to be self-reliant! They are asking for their dignity back by means of productive work in the private sector where they are beholden to no one but themselves and the markets they serve! Our President said that he wants to "transform America." I want to transform AMERICANS: from dependent to independent. From VICTIM to VICTOR."
[Just wondering if that would have been a more politic way of phrasing the same truth.]
Yes, the New Yorders (TriStaters) are handily adept at managing weather and at helping neighbors and strangers.
They think on an individual basis and are not real great, tight now, at following tenets of religion, but are, by default, giving into a controlling rule heavy government. They don't see that.
But they do very well in emergency situations. It's in their regional ancestry. One has to see it to understand it, as these guys have such a bad reputation for being rude, in man ways deserved.
but the Constitution is there for us. So it's simple. Nothing has to be reinvented.
"The GOP gave us Obamatwice. That cannot be forgotten nor forgiven. Time to throw them on the trash heap of history, form a new party and salvage what we can of America before it is too late."
Totally agree with you. It has been downhill since George Herbert Walker Bush's first and final inauguration. More than two decades of decline.
I think they are thinking that you can't get a loser's vote that wants stuff for free by telling them, "YOU ARE A LOSER THAT WANTS STUFF FOR FREE AND ARE A BIG PART OF OUR PROBLEM".
So what is their solution then to this?
Should be to limit the saftey net programs to all but the elderly and disabled, the rest have to be short term.
We also need to greatly reduce government employees and their costs to the taxpayer.
Again, since unions give billions upon billions to Democrats every two years for elections, how are we supposed to defeat THAT without calling it what it is? "An exchange of donations for extreme pay and benefits"...
Then you have the teacher's union and professors at colleges from Junior colleges up brainwashing the kids into voting for bonds, props and Presidents that are disasters for our country and budget. So what is the answer to dealing with that without calling that what it is?
COME ON>>>> This is retarded IMO.
I wonder if this is true.
The ONLY ones who have stood up to the GOP-e seem to be Sarah Palin and Herman Caine.....and you KNOW how they were assaulted and pummeled by the State-Run-Media, AND the GOP-e, and that's because they FEAR Conservatives rising up and telling it like it is. I've already seen Bobby Jindal jumping the shark, to avoid being attacked.
Yes. Allen West is a REAL black man who would charge hell with a bucket of water. - Some have said he wasn't "ready" to be President, not experienced enough . . . and the sorta black(ish) man we're stuck with IS "ready", IS "experienced"? I'm gonna donate to West's recount effort. He did the right thing; who can fight boxes of ballots "suddenly" being accidentally found here and there?
If we can no longer have faith that our elections are at least largely honest, then what have we left? Nothing.
I'm afraid American conservatism will be like British conservatism: just a degree or two to the right of the true left.
The GOP did NOT give us OBAMA twice; that is BS.
I think we have be adults and realize that Romney did a great job of painting a positive contrast to Obama.
The failings of this campaign were due to how much was already given to government employees and losers by the Democrat party before Obama came in and how vastly much more he increased it.
2 year unemployment.
Lots more food stamps.
Got rid of the work requirement for welfare and other reforms put in by Gingrich and Clinton.
Greatly grew government, and directed almost all stimulus to government workers.
Top 2% pay 75% of all taxes and he created class warfare to direct the anger at the successful people instead if the unsuccessful Obama.
Obama-care, greatly increasing more government employees and the IRS.
On and on.
Romney painted a direct contrast and informed the American people we are on the path for Greece, but they voted Greece.
So this isn't the GOP and they have been fighting the Democrat party giving away the Treasury for the vote for some 40 years now.
How do you fight politicians willing to give money away from the treasury with talk of balancing budgets and getting strong again when SO MANY PEOPLE HAVE AND WANT THEIR HANDS OUT FOR MORE.
I am married to a great lady who was from Mexico and even she says people, especially poor ones come here from Mexico to try and work and get on the dole because you do real well with all the hand outs here versus nothing in Mexico.
PS, wife works and pays taxes. But she is the kind we wanted here in America, self supporting and a tax payer, not taker.
I also have sympathy for the poor from elsewhere. I'm not trying to be mean, but they need to make paradise in their lands and not bankrupting our lands. God bless them, but...
I think Rubio IS GOP-e Just ran as a Tea Partier.
Beware of such, even if I'm wrong about HIM.
You, me and the rest of the choir, here, get that message. We'd truly like to see those that are dependent become transformed from "victim" to victor. The sad reality is that a many - not all - of these "victims" have no desire or interest, in getting their dignity back if it means having to actually work for a living.
Nothing. And he's not eligible anyway. It's hilarious that he and his supporter think the Democrats would let him slide on the NBC issue.
Don't kid yourselves. They wouldn't let McCain slide but somehow they will let Rubio? Guess again. Laws are only for Republicans.
Now if Rubio was a Dem, he'd be good to go.
"They wouldn't let McCain slide"
And by let McCain slide, I mean be both their NBC foil and patsy.
You have to wonder which of these a-hole the RINO's will pick for us in 2016.
Im very disappointed in this from the GOP. Considering these are people who were all for Romney, throwing him under the bus for stating the ugly truth is just low.
It is ok. Romney is done. You can stop sticking up for the liberal. You do know he would have been a disaster as much if not more then Obama. Stop sticking up for the RINO!!!!
ROTFLMAO. You are quite the comedian.
Jill Kelley crashed a fundraiser for Rubio, had her pix taken with him - then fled the scene. She later invited him to one of her shindigs, and he refused. Get your facts straight.
Praying to God, that he stays true to the people, the constitution. Wouldn't that be awesome.
So, you are saying that Rubio isn't natural born? Last I knew he was born in Miami, FL. That makes him as natural born as I am.
I can't take this. We are only a couple weeks out of a fraudulent election and already everyone is pulling the purist card on us. Let's wait and see what the field looks like as we get closer to 2016. We aren't going to find someone 100% pure. As great as Ronald Reagan was - he did some things which were horrible such as amnesty and the Iran-Contra affair.
Get over this purist attitude. Even a bona-fide conservative isn't going to give us 100% of whatever litmus test we have imbred in us.
"Rubio is not natural born, thus not eligible for the Presidency or Vice Presidency."
I thought his parents were US citizens when he was born?
His defenders are very huffy.
You mean those kinds of facts?
"Get over this purist attitude."
Eat it. The Geriatric Old Plotters have been as impure as a sump tank at a leper colony for two decades.
Time to recognize it is a false front and be done with the failure mongering clown show.
Had a facebook friend that was against Obama way back in the primaries...but she fell for the "war on women" thing and was convinced that Romney and the GOP were going to ban all contraceptives and try to take away women's vote. She's here in Idaho so didn't really matter much cause Romney still carried 65%...but I know there were more like her out in the battleground states where it mattered most.
Obama gave us his commie little self why do you think he had trumka and all those losers in first...he owes them for stealing the election. Look at all of the
Union b/s that's happened since. Hostess? Walmart? etc.
Apparently Rubio's parents became legal residents but did not get citizenship until Rubio was four.
This will lead to Democrat Birthers, which might be amusing in a primary, but Rubio can't be president.
Your pantywaist, etch-a-sketch progressive spawn off of a Mexican chicken ranch simpered and mewled his way to a well deserved defeat. If he could not handle a catamite like Obama, what would he have done in the big leagues with Putin?
Backstabbing and undermining conservatives is all Willard is good for in his public record.
Don't tell me what he -says- look at what he has done, and failed to do.
Here he is "helping" McCain in 2008:
The GOP as an institution is not merely dead, it is rotten. Bury the carcass and be done with the pretense that it is just sleeping and about to get up.
Tell me, who sounds more like the RINO in this exchange? The person pointing out Obama's socialist vote-bribery, or the quick-to-break critics who simply cannot believe people vote for those who give them stuff?
You do realize these individuals are clearly indicating that they believe we should emulate the Democrat concept of "inclusion" AKA - amnesty, free birth control pills. Let me guess, you're happy to back people who seem even more "flexible" in their core beliefs than Romney?
Are you backing the Christie 2016 ticket?
"You do know he would have been a disaster as much if not more then Obama. Stop sticking up for the RINO!!!!"
Well then i'm sure you're happy that the American-hating Muslim-in-plain sight has won again. can i send my expanded tax bill to you and your ilk here on FR ?
He was born to two people, neither of which were American citizens when he was born.
Were you born to non citizen parents also?
No, his parents did not become American citizens until he was fours old.
I see you did some further research.
I agree with your conclusion in #42.
I won't vote for another RINO chosen by Karl Rove. I will never vote for Jeb or his son. I'll vote 3rd party or sit it out. If the Repubs won't even do anything about the fraud, then what's the point of supporting them. It's pitiful. I would like to see a 3rd party starting up right now so we can have a strong candidate in 4 years. Why vote if the dems are going to hide ballots, mess with the machines and bribe people to vote. I won't do it.
FUMR. Only an AH would call voters who he needs (and didnt get) to elect him moochers while claiming he is winning when he is really losing. He is a disgrace.
Romney lost against a Dem POTUS who has a bad economy. He deserves our utter contempt.
Way too many here drank the Romney Koolaid. Basic rule : Don't get high on your own supply. Don't start believing your own BS.

I can answer questions about what Jehovah's Witnesses believe and why. I am not a scholar. I have no secular education beyond high school.
I have been a baptized Witness of Jehovah since June 1961. I have never been disfellowshipped but I do have opinions of my own that I feel support what most Witnesses believe. What I am saying is that sometimes my reasons for accepting what Jehovah's Witnesses teach and believe are in addition to or are not the same as the reasons given by our organization but my beliefs are still the same. Even though I may state my personal opinions, I will however never give my own opinion without first trying to state the official position of Jehovah's Witnesses. Contrary to popular opinion, Jehovah's Witnesses are allowed to think for themselves. However, we do recognize the need for unity, for all being on the same page, and therefore I will not give any personal opinions that would result in drawing conclusions contrary to what we as an organization teach. I will always try to give a source to back up my statements.
I have not served as an elder. Anyone asking me a question should know that. My father is an elder and my younger brother is as well. I have served in the capacity of a Ministerial Servant but currently I am not one. I also was a regular pioneer for three years after graduating from high school.

Elliot Brennan Quoted by CNN on Cultural Relativism in Asia
December 28, 2016: Elliot Brennan, Non-Resident Senior Research Fellow at ISDP, was quoted by CNN in the article 'Nazi chic': Why dressing up in Nazi uniforms isn't as controversial in Asia.
"The outcry over the Nazi costumes in Taiwan, while obviously offensive to those educated on this terrible period in history, should remind us of the dangers of cultural relativism," he said.

Los Angeles County Supervisors Michael D. Antonovich and Gloria Molina were unable to win majority support for their push to sever all ties to a foster care contractor with a history of substantiated child abuse and financial malfeasance.
Under the supervisors' proposal, the county board had been scheduled to take a public vote Tuesday on the county's relationship with Teens Happy Homes, a contractor that has received up to $3.6 million per year and cared for more than 1,100 foster children in recent years.
But Supervisor Mark Ridley-Thomas moved the item to a closed-door session where the proposal died, at least temporarily. A spokeswoman for Ridley-Thomas declined to say why he removed the item from the public schedule.
In closed session, the item was referred back to the offices of its sponsors who are free to bring back the proposal at a subsequent meeting.
Molina was on vacation Tuesday and not due to return until May 30. Antonovich's spokesman said his office will be discussing the matter with Molina's aides to decide how to proceed.
Michael Nash, the presiding judge of L.A. County's Juvenile Court, and Leslie Starr Heimov, who leads the court-appointed law firm representing foster children, have called on the supervisors to sever the contract.
The calls were issued after an examination of Teens Happy Homes, published in The Times, revealed questionable spending, including tens of thousands of dollars that went to personal expenses of the chief executive, Beautina Robinson.
The newspaper also reported that Maurice Mitchell, then president of the Teens Happy Homes board, retained his position while in jail before being convicted in a real estate scheme that involved identity theft, forged documents and more than $260,000 in stolen money.
Over a three-year period, 240 allegations of abuse or neglect were filed on behalf of youths at Teens' homes, a Times analysis of child abuse hot line data found. Teens' rate of nearly two allegations for each home was more than two times the average for the state and two-thirds higher than that of the rest of Los Angeles County.
About half of Teens' 131 facilities had no complaints during the period covered by the data, from October 2008 through September 2011. But four of them had 10 or more complaints, landing them among the top 40 in the county.
Investigators substantiated about 17% of all complaints from the Teens homes, about the same as the state average.
Problems keep proliferating at discredited private foster care agency

Marines at Camp Lejeune Get a Home Theater Surprise from Crestron |
Home Theater News General News | |
Written by AVRev.com | |
Tuesday, 10 February 2009 | |
The Wounded Warriors Battalion East, at Camp Lejeune, North Carolina received a welcomed surprise – Creston's donation of a home theater for the 130 wounded and recovering marines who are staying there. The donation was made through the Creston Eagles Program, which was created in order to bring comfort and entertainment to wounded soldiers.
Creston and partners donated the following to the Wounded Warriors: a Creston Adagio system, CEN IDOC iPod interface, 52-inch plasma HDTV, TPMC-8X Isys i/O WiFi touchpanel, Triad speakers & stands, an LG Blu-Ray Disc player, a Velodyne subwoofer and Marshall custom cabinets. Creston president George Feldstein, the founder of the Creston Eagles Program, was overwhelmed at the number of installers and programmers who have contacted him requesting to help with the next installation. The Creston Eagles Program has already installed home theaters at Walter Reid and Camp Legeune, and are looking to do the next two installations at Bethesda Naval Hospital and the Wounded Warriors Battalion West at Camp Legeune. |

Streetcars, sharks, pandas and parasols. Canada's largest city will soon be vibrantly alive. Just watch out for construction.
The biggest news here is the planned opening this summer of Ripley's Aquarium, a US$130-million project that is Toronto's first big new tourist attraction in two decades.
It will be home to 15,000 fish and other creatures. It also promises a moving walkway that passes through a tunnel below a 750,000-gallon shark lagoon.
On a windy April day, I walked to the aquarium in the shadow of the CN Tower to find dozens of workmen toiling on the unfinished glass building.
"When will it be done?" I inquired.
"Never," said a grinning, hard-hatted workman. "The outside windows won't keep out the rain, and the inside windows won't keep in the fish."
Ah, a little aquatic joke! The aquarium is supposed to start stocking fish tanks in June and open this summer, according to Ripley's spokeswoman Erin Burcham.
But fish are not the only tourism story here. In furry mammal news, the Toronto Zoo has just welcomed two giant pandas from China, which arrived by Federal Express in March. With an exhibit opening May 18, the zoo will showcase Er Shun and Da Mao for at least five years.
The third thing tourists should know about Toronto this summer is that there will be a lot of construction in this booming city. Spindly cranes reach for the clouds as new glass skyscrapers rise.
The biggest disruptions are on Front Street, which is partly closed, and at Union Station - all part of a giant five-year renovation to modernize.
Many tourists are familiar with Toronto from its earnest days as a "Phantom of the Opera" one-note destination. Today, the multicultural city welcomes 2 million visitors a year from the US - and this ever-growing city of 2.7 million people spreads out like a colourful quilt.
Most American visitors get the hang of riding the Toronto TTC subway with its U-shaped route. Many still shy away from the bright red streetcars, which require one to run into the street and jump onto a car packed elbow to elbow.
That is too bad, because the streetcars generally run east and west to supplement the subway, which primarily goes north and south. And the same US$3 token works for both. Just elbow your way on. When you want to get off, pull the yellow cord.
This summer also will be lively at two of Toronto's most endearing spots, St. Lawrence Market and Kensington Market, two places that tourists often mix up.
St. Lawrence Market is literally a market. One giant hall has dozens of vendors and farmers selling fish, meat, fruit, vegetables, pastries - everything from halibut heads to tulips.
There is a Saturday farmers market, a Sunday antiques market and more activities that spill out onto the streets. The market is on Front Street at Jarvis, a few blocks east of Union Station.
Kensington Market is a groovy neighbourhood near Chinatown northwest of Spadina and Dundas. (Both streets have streetcars, so take a chance and ride one to the market.) During the summer, some days the area becomes a pedestrian-only zone.
One of the coolest little corners is where Kensington meets Baldwin, home of the Good Luck Shop ("the name brings good luck to the customers," says the manager of the shop that sells games, socks, clocks, wigs and assorted low-budget merchandise.) Across the street is Global Cheese, from which the ripe smell of Stilton drifts into the street.
On the blocks nearby are wares for sale, including frilly petticoats, macrame hammocks, artisan bread, curried goat, chocolate truffles and buckets of parasols; in other words, all the necessities of life in modern Toronto.
GETTING AROUND: Use public transit, unless you are physically challenged (subways have a lot of stairs and walking).
LODGING: Toronto is the biggest city in Canada, with major metropolitan city prices to match. Lodging is generally US$180 to US$350 ($411) a night. Make sure any hotel-rate quote includes taxes and fees.
DINING: Toronto's varied dining scene means you can try high-end restaurants every night or choose tiny ethnic restaurants (my preference). Lots of Japanese, Chinese, Vietnamese, hole-in-the wall spots save your budget without sacrificing flavour.
PHONES: Beware of international roaming charges on your cell phone; contact your carrier to confirm service and rates.
Ripley's Aquarium - Set to open sometime in the summer 2013 at 288 Bremner Blvd., next to the CN Tower. Admission not yet set but other Ripley's Aquariums are $24.99 ($29.3), $12.99 ($15.25) for children ages 3-11.
Christian Louboutin Retrospective - You can see this exhibit on the history of the elite shoes and their designer at Design Exchange, June 21-Sept. 15; US$10 ($11.7), US$8 for students and free for ages 6 and under.
"Game On 2.0" - Check out an exhibit on the history of video games at the Ontario Science Centre. Now through Sept. 2; US$22 ($25.8), US$13 for ages 4-12 and free for ages 3 and under.
CN Tower EdgeWalk - Season Three is now open for those who want to walk on the outside ledge of the tower.
Legoland Discovery Centre - This just opened near Canada's Wonderland. It's an indoor playland, with rides, LEGO building areas and replicas of the Toronto skyline built of LEGOs; US$22 ($25.8), US$18 for ages 3-13, free for ages 2 and younger.

Robin, I hope the fundraiser drama is calmed by Saturday. Good for you for avoiding unnecessary drama. Congrats on your swim, walking, and eating away from home.
Jezzie, welcome back. I hope you slide easily back into tracking and walking. Best wishes on your arm pain.
April, my younger child is a really good-hearted guy, too. I always say he puts the "gentle" in the word "gentleman." Thanks for your encouragement. You've had marvelous reports this week. Sorry, I couldn't help but giggle aloud when reading "I am sure Oreos weren't on the plan."
It's good to have a sense of humor about the occasional stray, especially during TOTM. I hope your work day went well. Can't wait to read about what you can tell us about the prom.
Hope, thanks for your encouragement. I'm glad you were able to get in meditation and exercise to help with your pain. I've been away for so long. Is the pain due to the fibro or something different? Did you come away with some good pointers for the nutritional healing? You are doing an amazing job dealing with your stress and pain. Be assured of my hope and prayers for you as well.
I haven't got a menu planned for today because I don't know if we're going out for dinner, but I will pledge to eat small meals and on plan.
I went over in sat fat yesterday. I thought I had room for the sat fat in cheese and 2 sugar free chocolates, but I didn't--turned out I was on May 1 in my nutrition tracker instead of May 2. I didn't discover the error until I was done eating for the day. Unusual for my overage to be accidental, so I'm still proud of my results for Thursday.

a wall or fortress, a place to which Tiglath-pileser carried the Syrians captive after he had taken the city of Damascus (2 Kings 16:9; Amos 1:5; 9:7). Isaiah (22:6), who also was contemporary with these events, mentions it along with Elam. Some have supposed that Kir is a variant of Cush (Susiana), on the south of Elam.

We're with her. But then she tests our theoretical tolerance by giving her reasons.AdvertisementWrites Monica Bielanko,I shouldn't feel obligated to explain to anyone why I don't want to breastfeed. Even if I simply found it uncomfortable or was under the illusion that it would change my boobs, that should be no one's concern but mine. Yet here I am, explaining away.And she's absolutely right: whatever her reason, it's her choice.AdvertisementThen she goes on to tell us why she doesn't want to breast-feed:The real reason I'm not breastfeeding is deeply personal and deeply embarrassing: I'm not comfortable with the concept of busting out a boob anywhere. Sometimes not even my own bedroom. Yes, I have issues. I'm well aware, as is my long-suffering husband. A lot of it has to do with my being raised a Mormon. You could say I grew up ashamed of my sexuality...What I'm saying here is that I've always associated nudity, especially breasts, with sexuality and then sin and shame. And because breastfeeding involves breasts, it's gotten tangled up in those associations.Intellectually, the "reason" shouldn't matter — not least because it's none of our business and a woman shouldn't have to justify her choice. But can't we read this, agree with the author's basic point...and still hope she might get some counseling to feel better about her body? What she does with that confidence would, of course, continue to be her business. Not Breastfeeding Is Fine [Babble]Reply245 repliesLeave a reply
