off topic..breaking up with my best friend.
off topic..breaking up with my best friend.
I am going to try to keep this short (FAILED) because I'm emotionally taxed right now. I've been crying for the past 2.5 hours holding my girlfriend..my best friend. What I say may be fragmented and non-fluid. But these are my feelings as they pour out onto the keyboard.
Seeing her cry is the most painful thing. If she was indifferent and it was only me that was sad it would be so much easier...but that isn't how this works. She and I have a beautiful relationship. Really. We are silly, she listens to me. she is generous and sweet, I try to be the same in return. We never do anything hurtful towards each other. We never fight.
But...I don't know if anybody else can relate, but she really is my closest friend at the moment. I can't say anybody else knows more about me or is as accepting of me as she is. And I am the same for her. And she is definitely beautiful, a gorgeous girl, I find her very attractive. I just...I don't feel like she is the one I want to spend my life with. It's been 2 years and 10 months for us. I feel like if we keep going on I'll just be wasting her time, and mine. I greatly enjoy being with her, but I do want to find somebody who I would like to marry and start a family with. Part of this may be the fact that she is my first *real life* girlfriend (I have a complicated and semi tragic dating history before her). I met her before I was independent. Now I'm pretty set in my career and I'm getting into a stage where I want to buy a house, get a pet, and get married. I can't just be with her because I love being with her...not when I can't commit. And make no mistake, she is NOT pressuring me at all. This is me pressuring myself, trying to do what is best for both of us.
So anyways, we had this talk...in April, more or less describing what I said above, and we decided to put it off. Tonight, I brought the talk back up. And gosh it hurts. She cried, I cried. It's just so damn sad. We have decided to make the most of December and enjoy being together just a little bit longer, and then finalize our relationship on new years eve. I know many people probably would think that is a bad idea. But I think it is appropriate for us.
I care about her more than anybody else. I want her to be happy. I'm causing her sadness. She is completely in love with me. She says she doesn't think she will ever feel this way about anybody else. During our entire crying time we just hugged and told each other all of the things we love about each other. There was no anger, just sadness.
I wish my feelings weren't so complicated. That I just could just feel like I could be satisfied with her as a life partner. But...I can't help but wonder what would make me happiest...and not knowing what that is. She is my best friend, but she and I really don't have much in common aside from our feelings towards one another, our sense of humor, and our general dislike of arrogance, manipulation, and dickishness.
I'm so lucky to have found her. I'm so stupid for wanting to leave her. But to be honest with myself, I need to know more about the world (and myself) before I can feel comfortable settling down.
Thank you for reading, for those who read. One more month of enjoying my time with this wonderful girl. I really hope she and I will always be friends, but I know I have no right to expect her to feel comfortable around me in a purely platonic capacity. That is her decision. Gosh...even as I type this, I wonder if I'm making the biggest mistake of my life.

The fuck's wrong with you? Something ain't fucking right in your head. She could be a fucking toad and you'd be a fool not to partner up with that sorta love. ... Can she keep the books? 'Cause that's always a plus.

RE: off topic..breaking up with my best friend.
I had a similar situation (not quite as severe as yours), but it's possible the same concepts apply, so take it as you will. My girlfriend (at the time) and I were pretty great together, we never really fought, we loved being around each other, and we shared a sort of mental connection that was a little bit unreal (we would sometimes go to the library and read and talk about it, she loved Christopher Hitchens, even when she was a Christian), and sexually we were very compatible and she was probably the prettiest girl I've ever known. We were practically inseparable, and she was also my best friend. Then I went off to camp for 5 days and I didn't have my phone and everything changed.
Not being with her for five days, I got a chance to sort of look at our relationship from a different perspective, and it got me to question it, and I couldn't stop. This went on for two weeks, and I talked to her about it, we both cried, we were both really upset, and neither of us understood, but I knew that I needed a break from her because five days started me thinking, but it wasn't enough time in that capacity to help me reach a conclusion. So we took a break, and there was some sort of misunderstanding and we didn't talk for a while, but then after three months, I decided to talk to her again, and we got back together. In this second relationship I was able to have a better opinion of her, and I saw her as she truly was and realized that I didn't like it. She was basically insane and basically agreed with everything I said as if I were some sort of deity, we weren't in a relationship, she was worshiping me, stroking my ego (along with other things), taking my word as gospel. She hadn't lost her faith during our relationship, she replaced it. Eventually I brought her to see me as a terrible person (by breaking my own gospel) and got her to break up with me.
Anyways, the point is, your girlfriend may not be a kook like mine was, but there may be something you are only realizing on a very subconscious level and trying to ignore because of your relationship. You can't explain it to us because you can't yet understand it yourself, but I have a feeling it's there because how you're feeling is exactly how I feel. Trust yourself, you know what's best for you, you understand yourself better than you think you do.

RE: off topic..breaking up with my best friend.
I can kind of understand this feeling, actually. When I was in college I dated a guy for a little over a year who to this day still has a special place in my heart. And we still chat briefly every now and then. But like you, there came a time when I felt like I had to move on. It wasn't that I didn't love him, it was a feeling I couldn't even name then, but what I've come to call my wanderlust. I live on change. It was hard to be friends after being in a relationship though. Good luck.

RE: off topic..breaking up with my best friend.
I think you both should love to the best of your ability and let the future play itself out. If you really love her as a friend - then just be the best friend you can be. If she really loves you back - even as More than a friend - she'll accept how you feel and be alright with it. Just let it all move along and don't try so hard to control emotions or work so hard to control the future. You're not keeping her from finding *true* love or some other relationship if You're the one she wants to spend her time with.
Go with the flow and try not to worry so much. Life has a way of figuring itself out better than we can sort out by over-working things.
When I want your opinion I'll read your entrails.

RE: off topic..breaking up with my best friend.
You are being incredibly INCREDIBLY insightful. The advice people are giving for you to stay with her is not fair to either of you.
Perhaps, after experiencing more, and having the opportunity to grow, you'll find each other again, but right now you're making such a mature decision. The right choice is often the most difficult.
Honestly, there is something about being in a relationship and KNOWING that this person is the one. If you're only 3 years in and feeling this way, there is so much resentment that could VERY likely be built up after years of feeling like you didn't get to experience the things you're wanting to experience now. You CAN'T just let life and relationships happen to you. By taking control of your situation (however painful), you're taking steps to have the happiest future you can have.
If marriage is important to you, then you need to be with someone who you can see yourself marrying and by "going with the flow" (as much as I LOVE WitchSabrina) you're closing yourself off to other people who are more compatible and fit whatever your criteria for "marriage material" is.
I also think it's an incredibly painful decision to wait a month for an impending breakup. In order to begin processing and getting through the pain of a breakup, you need to FEEL the pain and come out on the other end. By continuing to have contact and hang out with her for this month, you're definitely setting this precedent of staying in contact. Therapists recommend after a breakup, having no contact for 6 months to a year in order to properly, healthily process the breakup and move on. Studies have shown that after a breakup, people go through the same stages of loss and grief as when someone dies, so what you're feeling is completely normal and necessary.
My heart goes out to you as I made a similar decision a few years ago. It was the most painful experience of my life (more painful than my divorce, because this boyfriend didn't DO anything wrong, I just knew it wasn't the right relationship for me for the rest of my life)... and so confusing because I was the one doing the breaking up. And because I loved him, seeing HIM in pain and saying he could change, etc. was so so so painful. I went home and bawled for 2 days straight, then I lost like 15 pounds in a month because I was so depressed about it. Slowly, after thoroughly feeling all that pain, I graduated to a feeling of self-reliance that I'd never had before. There was something so empowering about having made the decision I made and about being on my own as an adult.
I've now been in a relationship for 2 years that is everything I had hoped it would be. We are compatible and best friends and I can easily see me having a very happy life with him for the rest of my time on earth. It's a relationship like nothing I had experienced before and I'm so thankful that I was willing to go through that pain in order to come out on this end. I really, genuinely, wish the same for you.

RE: off topic..breaking up with my best friend.
I hate it when relationships go that way. I've gone through it as well, and it isn't pretty. You hit the nail on the head when it comes to wanting to figure things out. The lost feeling might not actually be you being lost, but might be that you haven't been able to talk it out enough to know what concretely what you want. It is sometimes very uncomfortable, even unbearable, to come to terms with ourselves and figure out what we really want - and even if it seems selfish, it's normal. Don't drag your knees on the concrete, and good luck with things!

. We will also share information from your Account with others, as expressly authorized by you in connection with certain transactions such as charity or political campaigns.
By providing us with a mobile phone number, you consent to receiving text (SMS) messages from us. If you provide us with the mobile number of any other person or entity when initiating or requesting a payment through the Service, you represent and warrant to us that the person or entity has consented to receive text messages from us related to that payment. Standard text messaging rates may apply based on your plan with your mobile phone carrier.
a. Generally : You may electronically transfer funds from your Cash App to your bank account. We may limit how many transfers you can initiate from your Cash App to your bank account and how much money you can transfer in a single transaction. We reserve the right to delay or further limit such transfers while we screen for risk, or we may request you provide additional information to verify your identity.
b. Limitations : You may not transfer funds from your Cash App to your bank account to evade a payment investigation. If you attempt to transfer your Cash App while we are conducting an investigation, we may hold your funds for up to 180 days to protect Square or a third party against the risk of reversals, chargebacks, claims, fees, fines, penalties and other liability. You will remain liable for all obligations related to your account even after the account is closed.
To send funds or make a payment transaction using a credit or debit card as your funding source you must have either (i) a credit card issued by a U.S.-based bank or financial institution bearing the trademark of MasterCard International Inc. ("MasterCard"), Visa Inc. ("Visa"), American Express Travel Related Payment Services Company, Inc. ("American Express"), or DFS Services, LLC ("Discover"), or (ii) a valid debit card issued by a U.S.-based bank or financial institution bearing the Visa, MasterCard or Discover logo (a credit or debit card, each a "Card"). Any such debit card is an "Eligible Debit Account" and any such credit card is an "Eligible Credit Account" (and together with an Eligible Debit Account and funds held in the Cash App, an "Eligible Transaction Account") once you register it with your Account. You may not use prepaid cards or gift cards with the Service.
If your credit card account number changes or your credit card expiration date changes, we may acquire that information from our financial services partner and update your account accordingly.
When you make a Cash App payment:
Square may limit the funding sources available for your use for a specific transaction to reduce risk.
Each funding source will have different dispute resolution rights and procedures in the event your transaction turns out to be unsatisfactory. Your dispute resolution rights are determined by the funding source used to fund your transaction.
The peer-to-peer Service ("P2P") allows you to transmit funds or receive funds for P2P personal, non-commercial purposes.
Once you have registered for Cash App and have an Eligible Transaction Account you will be able to initiate funds transfers. As a party initiating a transfer ("Sender"), you will transfer funds to your selected recipient ("Recipient") by designating the Recipient and the transfer amount to us (collectively "Payment Instructions"). Your Payment Instructions authorize us (1) to move funds from your Eligible Transaction Account and to your designated Recipient (a "Payment"). By submitting a Payment Instruction, you are also authorizing us to move money to your Eligible Transaction Account for Payments that are canceled or otherwise returned (a "Credit").
You understand and agree that when you initiate a Payment Instruction from an Eligible Transaction Account using the Service, the processing of the Payment Instruction will begin, and funds will leave your Eligible Transaction Account, as early as the day of the initiation of such Payment Instruction. However, we will only begin to process the requested transfer of funds to the Recipient once the Recipient has provided all required information, and you hereby authorize and direct us to retain such funds until the earlier of such time as the Recipient has provided all required information or fifteen (15) days.
You agree that we shall incur no liability if we are unable to complete any transaction because of: (i) insufficient funds in the Eligible Transaction Account; (ii) malfunction of the Service due to circumstances beyond our control or due to circumstances that you were already aware of at the time you initiated your Payment Instruction; (iii) inaccurate or insufficient Payment Instructions; or (iv) failure of the Recipient to claim the Payment.
You may also initiate a P2P request for funds to be transferred to you by designating the amount of funds requested and your selected Sender (a "Cash Request"). If the Sender approves your Cash Request, your Cash Request will become the Sender's Payment Instructions and be processed as described in these Cash Terms.
Once you have created an Account, when you receive a Cash App payment:
You understand and agree that there may be a delay between the time you are notified of a pending Payment Instruction and the deposit of the Payment into your Eligible Debit Account, Eligible Bank Account, or Cash App, and that you may be required to take additional steps to facilitate the deposit. You authorize us to send you emails or text messages related to any Payment directed to you.
Additional identification information will be required to send more than two hundred and fifty dollars ($250) in any one transaction or in multiple transactions over any rolling seven (7) day period or to receive more than one thousand dollars ($1,000) in any trailing thirty (30) day period. Senders may not send more than two thousand five hundred dollars ($2,500) in any one transaction or in multiple transactions over any rolling seven (7) day period. We may adjust these limits at any time in our reasonable discretion. Current limits are posted on our
RED WING Beckman Chukka Boot Factory Second 26waWGWyIE
There are currently no fees for sending money using an Eligible Debit Account, or funds held in the Cash App through P2P. The fee for sending money using an Eligible Credit Account through P2P is found on the

. There are currently no fees for transferring funds into your Eligible Bank Account using ACH. The fee for transferring funds via Instant Deposit is found on the MICHAEL Michael Kors Kendrick SlipOn 0Rm5OQ0PU
. We reserve the right to charge for and/or change the fees associated with use of the Service at any time subject to these Cash Terms.
Sender may cancel or stop a Payment Instruction at any time until the processing of the Payment Instruction to the Recipient's Eligible Debit Account has begun. Our ability to stop a Payment Instruction or recover funds associated with an unauthorized Payment Instruction will depend on how the Payment Instruction was initiated, and whether the Payment Instruction has begun processing. Payments not claimed by a Recipient for fifteen (15) days after the processing has begun will be canceled automatically. We will attempt to return any unclaimed, refused, refunded, prohibited, or denied Payment to your Eligible Transaction Account. If we are not able to do so, we may use other reasonable means to return the Payment to you, as permitted by applicable law.
We will generally tell you the results of our investigation into the suspected error within ten (10) business days of receipt of your written notification (or your oral notification, if no written notification is requested). However, if necessary, we may take up to forty-five (45) days to complete our investigation. If we do so, we will provisionally credit funds to your Cash App within ten (10) business days for the amount of the suspected error. If we ask you to submit your complaint or question in writing and we do not receive it within ten (10) business days, we may not provisionally credit funds to your Cash App. We will correct any confirmed error promptly. If we determine there was no error, we will mail you a written explanation within three (3) business days of completing our investigation, and we may revoke any provisional credit provided to you. You may ask for copies of documents used in our investigation.
Square may arrange for Sutton Bank to provide you with access to a prepaid payment card under the Cash App Prepaid Card Program ("Cash Card"). By using the Cash Card, you also agree to the Cash App Prepaid Card Program Agreement ("Cash Card Terms"), which may be updated from time to time. For avoidance of doubt, the Cash Card Terms are between you and Sutton Bank, not Square, and in the event of any inconsistency between these Cash Terms and the Cash Card Terms, the Cash Card Terms shall govern your use of the Cash Card and your relationship with Sutton Bank.
The Card may be issued in virtual and/or physical form. To activate the virtual card, you will need to click to access funds stored in your Cash App and toggle on the virtual card button. To request a physical card, you need to follow in-app prompts to request a card and provide your mailing address and signature. Prohibited signatures include, but are not limited to, those signatures that depict inappropriate subject matter, the intellectual property rights of others, or an ink-intensive design.We reserve the right to reject signatures and card applications for any reason. Once you receive your physical card in the mail you must follow the directions in the mailing to activate your card prior to use. Your personal identification number ("PIN") will be the code you set as your Cash passcode, and you may reset the PIN in the Cash App. Your physical card may be cancelled, repossessed, and/or revoked at any time without prior notice at our discretion (including for depicting a prohibited signature) subject to applicable law.
The Cash Card is a prepaid card that can be used to make purchases with a merchant using any available amounts in your Cash App once you have activated the service. Upon activating the service, you instruct Square to use the available balance in your Cash App to load your Cash Card account for making purchases with your Cash Card. You further instruct Square to transfer the funds from your Cash App to your Cash Card account upon receipt of funds into your Cash App.
You can only make transactions using the Cash Card to the extent that you have funds in your Cash App to support those transactions. You agree not to make a purchase or other transaction in excess of the funds available in your Cash App. If you do make a purchase or other transaction that exceeds the balance available in your Cash App, you agree that we can recover any negative balance incurred.
If you have zero funds in your Cash App, any subsequent transaction authorizations using your funds in the Cash App will be declined. Any transaction attempted for more than the amount available in your Cash App may be declined if that merchant does not accept more than one form of payment. When you use your Cash Card to initiate a transaction at certain merchant locations, websites or mobile applications where the final purchase amount is unknown at the time of authorization, a hold may be placed on the available funds in your Cash App for transfer to the Account for an amount equal to or in excess of the final transaction amount. The funds subject to the hold will not be available to you for any other purpose until Sutton Bank informs Square that the merchant has sent the final transaction amount. Once Square receives the final transaction amount, it may take up to seven days for the hold to be removed. During that period, you will not have access to the funds subject to the hold.
You may transfer to an external bank account free of charge subject to normal processing times and withdraw physical cash from that account, as permitted by your external account. In addition, with your PIN, you may use your Csh Card to obtain cash at ATMs that display the Visa marks or at any point-of- sale (POS) devices that bear the Visa marks as permitted by the merchant and subject to your available Card Account balance, the cash access transaction limits and other terms described in the https://squareup.com/legal/cash-card-agreement .
The Cash Card is not redeemable for cash or other cards, and cannot be resold, exchanged or transferred for value, except as required by law. Square disclaims all express or implied warranties as to the Cash Card. Except as otherwise set forth herein or required by applicable law, Square is not responsible if your Cash Card is lost, stolen, destroyed, or used without your permission.
The Cash Card may not be used for any illegal activity. You agree not to use the Cash Card for Internet gambling, whether or not internet gambling is illegal in the jurisdiction in which you are located. You are liable for transactions you initiate by the use of the Cash Card, whether deemed legal or illegal.
You do not have the right to stop payment on a transaction originated with the Cash Card. You are responsible for all authorized transactions initiated by use of the Cash Card.
If you have misplaced your Cash Card, or you otherwise want to prevent future transactions from your Cash Card, you may disable the Cash Card with the Cash App's "Disable Card" feature. Use of this feature will not prevent processing of pending transactions initiated prior to disabling your Cash Card. A Cash Card will only be considered "disabled" once the properly functioning Cash App has provided confirmation that the card has been disabled.
In the event you have found your card, or otherwise want to enable a disabled Cash Card, a "disabled" Cash Card cannot be used for transactions until you have selected the Cash App's "Enable Card" option and a properly functioning Cash App has provided confirmation that the card has been enabled. You are responsible for preventing unauthorized disabling and enabling activity on your device relating to your Cash Card. Such activity, when not authorized, may be deemed invalid in Square's sole discretion.
If your card is lost or stolen and you want to request a new card, you should tap the virtual card in your Cash App and click "report lost card" to request a new Cash Card.
If you would like to cancel your Cash Card, contact support through your profile page in the Cash App.
We will inform Sutton Bank if we determine that you are no longer eligible for your Cash Card. If you are no longer eligible for your Cash Card it may be canceled at any time without notice as detailed in Section 31 ( Cancellation and Suspension) in the Cash Card Terms and your funds will be returned to you unless they are the subject of an investigation into suspected unlawful activity, or if Square is otherwise required by law to withhold your funds.
Refunds for Cash Card transactions will be credited to your Cash App after we receive notice from Sutton Bank of the amount of credit from refunds that is available to be returned to your Cash App.
Your Eligible Transaction Account or funds held in your Cash App may also be used to purchase goods and services from sellers that use Cash for Business or to make donations to charities or political campaigns who use Cash for Business ("Cash for Business Sellers"). Typically Cash for Business Sellers will be identified to you by a badge in the Service. By initiating a Payment Instruction with a Cash for Business Seller via the Service, you authorize the Cash for Business Seller to charge your Eligible Transaction Account or you authorize the Service to pull funds from your Cash App to complete the purchase or donation and you consent to sharing information from your Account with the Cash for Business Seller. In the event you are entitled to a reversal, refund, chargeback, or other adjustment associated with any purchase through the Service, you also authorize a credit to your Eligible Transaction Account or to your Cash App to accomplish that transaction.
By classifying yourself as a business and signing up for Cash for Business, you are creating an account with us (a "Square Account"), and you accept and agree to
OOFOSOOcloog Project Pink Clog rzdcFLgj
and Payment Terms , subject to any amendments or modifications contained herein. We may use certain information from your Profile to create your Square Account and display such information to your customers, such as on receipts. Once you have created a Cash App account and have linked your Eligible Transaction Account, you will be able to accept debit and credit card transactions for the sale of goods and services. We will, acting on your behalf, facilitate the processing of such debit and credit card transactions. We will charge you a for doing so. Your payments, less our fee, will be deposited to your Cash for Business Merchant's Square Account. We may use certain information from your Profile to create your Square Account and display such information to your customers, such as on receipts. To protect the integrity of the system and reduce risk that a transaction may be reversed or charged back to your Square Account (a "Chargeback"), in some cases where we reasonably believe a Chargeback is likely, you also direct and authorize us, as your agent, to void the transaction, rather than hold funds as described in Sections 18-21 of the Payment Terms.
If you receive a Payment and we later determine in our sole discretion that the Payment was invalid for any reason, then you hereby authorize us to move funds from your Eligible Debit Account in an amount equal to the Payment.
You agree that we will not be liable in any way for any Payments that you may receive, regardless of whether you authorized the Sender to send them to you.
You agree that you are independently responsible for complying with all applicable laws in all of your activities related to your use of the Service, and for all communications you send through the Service.
You further agree that in connection with your use of the Services, or in the course of your interactions with Square, a user or a third party, you will not (a) use your account or the services in a manner that Square, Visa, MasterCard, American Express or Discover reasonably believe to be an abuse of the payment card system or a violation of payment card association rules, (b) provide yourself a cash advance from your credit card (or help others to do so), or (c) use the Service to make transactions for the purpose of earning rewards, perks, miles, points, etc. with your credit card.
We reserve the right to block, refuse, or reverse any Payment, in our sole discretion. We will notify the Sender promptly if we decide to do so, but notification is not required if the Sender attempted to make a Payment prohibited by these terms or applicable law. Neither we nor third parties to whom we assign or delegate rights or responsibilities will be liable for any claims or damages resulting from Senders' initiation of prohibited Payments. All costs for research and resolution for any misapplied, misposted or misdirected prohibited Payments will be your sole responsibility and not ours.
We are an independent contractor for all purposes, except that we act as your limited agent with respect to the custody and transfer of your funds for P2P only.
From time to time, we may offer referral programs or incentives for inviting others to use the Service (a "Referral Program"). Any bonuses or incentives under such Referral Program shall be subject to the then current Referral Program terms, if applicable, and otherwise at our sole discretion.
As a Recipient or Cash for Business Merchant, you may be asked to provide certain information used to assist Square in complying with its obligations under the United States Internal Revenue Code and the applicable Treasury Regulations. By providing Square with this information you are certifying that the information provided is true and accurately reflective of your use of the Service. When indicating that you are a Cash for Business Merchant, you certify that such use of Cash App is to receive payment(s) that are "reportable payment transactions" as defined in Treas. Reg. § 1.6050W–1(a)(3) including, but not limited to, the payments for goods and services. When indicating that your use of the Service is "Personal" use, you certify that such use is solely for receipt of payments other than non-reportable payment transactions. For avoidance of doubt, "Personal use" allows for payment in exchange for goods and services (i.e., to pay a Cash for Business account), but does not allow for the receipt of payment for goods and services you provide others.
These Cash Terms, along with any applicable additional terms or policies, are a complete statement of the agreement between you and Square regarding the Services.
Receipt of payment . You can keep funds in your Cash App. Such funds are available for new transfers. You do not need to use funds held in your Cash App to make payments. Square may impose limitations on how much money you can keep in your Cash App and reserves the right to change the limitation at any time and shall settle funds to your bank account as necessary. If you do hold funds in your Cash App, Square will hold such funds separate from its corporate funds, will not use your funds for any corporate purposes, nor will Square voluntarily make your funds available to its creditors in the event of bankruptcy. Square will combine your funds with the funds of other users and place those pooled accounts in one or more bank accounts in Square's name.
Para algunos los aliens no son más que un producto de la imaginación colectiva o en el peor de los casos, una estafa para llamar la atención. Para otros, los Objetos Voladores No Identificados ( OVNIs ) prueban que podríamos estar más cerca de hacer contacto con vida inteligente extraterrestre de lo que creemos.
Desde 2001, aquellos que creen en la vida alienígena celebran el Día Mundial del OVNI cada 2 de julio . Esta fecha es utilizada por los "creyentes" para hacer eventos temáticos y presionar a los gobiernos a hacer pública la información de los contactos secretos con la vida del espacio exterior.
Tallia OrangeEnrico Bird poYPSIpwv
Aunque la mayoría de los encuentros con los extraterrestres no han sido documentados científicamente y las "pruebas" en muchos casos son sólo fotografías o videos de muy mala calidad, hay ciertos casos que destacan por ser bastante creíbles.
Con motivo del #DíaDelOvni , en De10.mx encontramos 10 OVNI's famosos nos hacen creer que los terrícolas no somos los únicos habitantes del Universo ...
1. Roswell
El 10 de julio de 1947, los habitantes de la tranquila ciudad de Roswell, en Nuevo México, EU, reportaron que habían visto un platillo volador estrellarse en su localidad. La historia comenzó cuando el ranchero W.W Mack Brazel dijo que había encontrado los restos de la nave y los cuerpos de sus pilotos.
La explicación de la Fuerza Aérea fue que la nave era en realidad un globo meteorológico del ejército, pero en plena Guerra Fría hubo quien no creyó esta historia. Charles Fogus, el ayudante del sheriff del pueblo, tiene su propia versión de los hechos.
Fogus dice que cuando llegó al lugar del choque había más de 300 solados, quienes arrastraban a una criatura gigante lejos de la zona y trataban de eliminar todas la evidencias. Había también otros cuerpos extraños que tenían pies iguales a los de nosotros, pero cuya piel lucía quemada por el sol. 70 años después, aún no sabemos con exactitud qué sucedió aquella noche.
A huge planet, ten times as big as Earth, might be hiding on the edge of our solar system.

Eliza Carson is an American Playboy model. She is best known for her special edition pictorials as well as being named "Cybergirl of the Week" on November 28, 2011.
Eliza Carson is a natural beauty. Well, outside of her *ahem* enhanced 34Cs, of course. The stunning blonde out of Panama City, Florida first began modeling for Playboy in 2010, when she posed for special edition pictorials "Big Boobs & Hot Buns," "Sexy Summer Girls," and "Wet & Wild." Due to the rapid success of her shoots, she was asked back to each the following year. This would also lead to being featured in Playboy Plus Amateur on top of it all. Even with all that under her belt, Eliza is probably most famous for being named "Cybergirl of the Week" on November 28, 2011.
Of course, like any model, there is more to Ms. Carson than just a pretty face (and a dynamite rack). Along with focusing on staying in shape for shoots, she spends most of her free time finishing up her degree in marketing. Never one to pass up an opportunity, she also knows that both of her potential careers could go a long way in helping each other out. According to an interview with Playboy, Eliza claims she could "sell ice to an Eskimo." And with looks like hers, we'd be inclined to agree.
When it comes to hobbies, it may sound generic on the surface, but Eliza really enjoys the beach. The twist, however, is that most of her time spent at the ocean isn't lying in the sun, but offshore fishing, which she considers her favorite sport. In her words, "Not only is catching those big fish a rush, but it's also a great form of relaxation being out in the beautiful open water."

A home improvement loan? Without a doubt. A home improvement loan, that is just another name for a home loan, will finance the enhancements that will add value to your house and can provide you with cash as well, not only take care of your home enhancements but pay off credit card debt too.
First, you have to watch the trends or even movement of interest rates. There are several research tools available online to find the historical national average fixed mortgage rates. Second, you have to know your credit score since it plays a significant role when you wish to get the lowest mortgage prices.
Location – Make sure to consider communities that will grow and also have the potential to do so. This will impact your resale potential if you choose to move.
If you work with a mortgage definition expert, you'll find that you might be able to achieve your goals despite your own "subprime" score. Since in situations like your own, your history of paying your own mortgage and/or your Section 13 payments will be a lot more critical factor in determining that which you qualify for. And if you can get a program that lowers your general payments by hundreds or even thousands of dollars, that's what's most significant. You can do this even with a low credit rating!
Before you can successfully get yourself a home mortgage refinance loans, lenders usually need to assess whether or not you qualify for the particular said loan. Expect these to go through your credit information, ask you for helping documents to prove your own financial capability, your income, as well as your collateral. So, to save yourself time, here are some guidelines to help you evaluate if or not you qualify for house refinancing.
The best way to begin to conserve for a house is to conserve immediately. You can't save for the house if you don't start someplace. Whatever money you conserve for your house, put in the savings account to keep it separate from the other funds so you usually are not tempted to spend it.
In addition, cash flow is taxable but financial debt payments and maintenance expenses are tax deductions therefore again you're getting a benefit by using more leverage (more OPM) and getting less month-to-month cash flow. Some people need the particular monthly cash flow, and if therefore, one can shift his technique to accomplish just that. Many others will discover that giving up the extra money every month means huge long lasting wealth building advantages.

Dexter actress Jennifer Carpenter fought back tears on Thursday (18Jul13) when she reunited with TV co-stars past and present to take part in their final Comic-Con panel appearance.
Michael C. Hall, who plays the serial killer title role, featured alongside Carpenter during a question and answer session with fans at the comic book convention in San Diego, California, and they were joined by old colleagues Julie Benz, Lauren Velez and Erik King, whose characters have all been killed off on the hit drama.
Another former Dexter castmate, John Lithgow, also put in an appearance at Comic-Con, paying tribute to the series in a taped video segment.
In the clip, he joked, "I wish I could be with you today but, as you know, I'm dead", referring to the demise of his character, The Trinity Killer.
During the panel event, Hall expressed his gratitude to the audience for helping to keep them all employed, saying, "Just as you all waited in line and are here for us, we have been here for you, and we are here because of you."
And Benz revealed she had mixed feelings about the series wrapping for good after its current eighth season, admitting, "It's ending on a high note, and that's what you want to see in television, but it's sad to see it go."
However, the emotional reunion was a little too much for Carpenter to bear and the actress visibly struggled to keep from crying as she expressed her need for closure as Dexter's conflicted sister Deb: "I wanted and want Deb to die. As an actor, it's because I love her. It's a little like how Michael treats his victims: I want her to go to the bottom of the abyss instead of in my head for eight years after the show is over to wonder, 'What if?'..."

Get The Job You Deserve With This Information
One important thing to increase your chances of employment is planning. Be sure to have an application that is up-to-date and lists all of your skills. Your fp grado superior and other successes and qualifications must be included too. Make sure you record references for previous jobs and can include information on your educational background.
Having a little extra may give you a heads up to the competition. There are lots of organizations offering gyms, little restaurants, and other things because of their employees. A great deal of people will require these services, and therefore use for those jobs. Which means that employers will be able to select from a larger pool, which implies they have access to top candidates.

At first, I didn't quite understand what it was exactly. Then I decided to install it and see what it is.
So here is some information from a beginner point of view. What I will say is maybe not 100% accurate, but I will try my best. The goal of this post is to show you how to start playing with SmartOS. What I will show is just good for testing purposes!
Here is a quick explanation for someone who is used to work with VirtualBox:
SmartOS is like if VirtualBox is transformed into a OS.
SmartOS is a free and open-source SVR4 hypervisor, based on the UNIX operating system that combines OpenSolaris technology with Linux's KVM virtualization.
In the setup described below, we will use VirtualBox to host a virtual machine using SmartOS called SmartOS Manager.
Here is a little schema:
So "SmartOS manager" is a guest (for VirtualBox) and it is also a host to manage SmartOS VMs.
How to setup something really basic
- install VirtualBox
- download the latest ISO file for SmartOS
- open VirtualBox and create a new VM with these settings
- Name: SmartOS manager
- Type: Solaris
- Version: Oracle Solaris 11 (64-bit)
- 2GB of ram
- VDI disk of 16GB
- Attached to: Bridged Adapter
- Adapter type: Intel PRO/1000 MT Desktop
- Promiscuous Mode: Allow All
SmartOS will ask you some questions about your setup:
- IP address
- Default gateway
- NTP server
- Host
- Default DNS search Domain
- Password for root account
- Data pool (where VM's will be installed), just type "y"
The system will now finish configuration and reboot. Please wait...Great. Now let's see how to create a VM. By the way, in the world of SmartOS, a VM is called a zone.
Now, ssh to the VM and run the command to see all pre-configured zones:
$ imgadm avail UUID NAME VERSION OS TYPE PUB f669428c-a939-11e2-a485-b790efc0f0c1 base 13.1.0 smartos zone-dataset 2013-04-26 9eac5c0c-a941-11e2-a7dc-57a6b041988f base64 13.1.0 smartos zone-dataset 2013-04-26 ...
As you can see there are a lot available. The one that we will use is (because it is the latest "base-64"):
96bcddda-beb7-11e5-af20-a3fb54c8ae29 base-64-lts 15.4.0 smartos zone-dataset 2016-01-19
Import (download) the VM and wait a little bit:
$ imgadm import 96bcddda-beb7-11e5-af20-a3fb54c8ae29
Create a VM manifest file:
$ vi /root/web01.json { "brand" : "joyent", "image_uuid" : "5c7d0d24-3475-11e5-8e67-27953a8b237e", "alias" : "web01", "hostname" : "web01", "max_physical_memory": 512, "quota" : 7, "resolvers" : ["220.127.116.11", "18.104.22.168"], "nics" : [ { "nic_tag": "admin", "ip" : "10.88.88.52", "netmask": "255.255.255.0", "gateway": "10.88.88.2" } ] }
Resolvers: set the same DNS servers as you did for the SmartOS manager
IP: use an IP in the same network as the SmartOS manager
Gateway: same as the SmartOS manager
Create the VM:
$ vmadm create -f web01.json
Now you can list the existing VM;
$ vmadm list UUID TYPE RAM STATE ALIAS 25ac9366-21ad-4942-a98d-f35373c3cf40 OS 512 running web01
And to login:
$ zlogin 25ac9366-21ad-4942-a98d-f35373c3cf40
From there, you should be able to ping google:
$ ping google.com google.com is alive
Now you can play with this VM. To install packages:

One in five children and youth has an identifiable mental health disorder and of those, five out of six will never get the help they need. We also know that suicide is the second leading cause of death among 10 to 24 year olds.When mental health issues begin at such a young age, they can have an affect over a person's entire lifespan. Of adults living with a mental illness, 70% report having the symptoms before the age of 18 and of those, 50% had them before the age of 14. As the largest provider of child and youth mental health services in Eastern Ontario, CHEO has a front row seat to the impact of mental health issues on our children. We are seeing unprecedented demand for our mental health services and a significant increase in the seriousness of cases. Consider these statistics:
The good news is that the stigma and discrimination towards people with mental health problems and illness has been receding over the past few years. Mental health is now talked about where people live, work and play. As these attitudes change, more families are seeking help yet, at the same time, the current system isn't equipped to handle the surge.
CHEO is a leader in child and youth mental health, working with partners around promotion and early intervention, assessment and treatment. The Advocacy Committee complements this clinical excellence with a focus on:
CHEO believes that increased investment in mental health promotion and early intervention would have dramatic implications for our children and youth, one which could be positively felt across their entire life-span. Access to services and help in childhood and adolescence will actually reduce expenditures in adult mental health services and in the justice system.In May 2012, the Mental Health Commission of Canada released the country's first mental health strategy – Changing Directions, Changing Lives.

"A baule" or spool earrings consist of a band of sheet metal rounded at one end and rolled into a cylinder. A hook at one end of the earring either passed through the earlobe or a suspension hoop in the ear.
The upper zone of decoration, which covered the earlobe, is shaped like a pediment with a palmette drawn in beaded wire and terminating in spirals. Granules of many different sizes fill in space at the base of the palmette. A thin strip of sheet gold forms an undulating ribbon-like border between the two zones.
The main decorative zone is divided into eighteen squares, all separated by a ribbon border. The squares alternate between a hemisphere of plain sheet gold and one covered with granules, creating a pattern of matte/textured and polished/smooth surfaces. The sheet gold hemispheres are marked with a pyramid of three granules that form a central bead.
An embellished disk closes one end of the spool. The disk is decorated with a border of flat open circles (beaded filigree wire); beaded filigree is used to embellish the open area in the center.
The earring forms a pair with 03.765.

Communicable diseases still disable or kill millions worldwide despite centuries of public health progress. Twenty-first century public health services and systems researchers are testing innovative strategies to achieve goals that were once considered beyond reach. This month's Frontiers in PHSSR includes two path-breaking examples: the use of advanced statistical modeling to provide a more actionable model for influenza epidemiology, and assessing the dissemination of customized videos to communicate the value of human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccination to populations whose belief systems would otherwise lead them to reject it.

Our mission is to make fine spirits with an old school approach. We hope you like it that way, cause we sure do!
RockCastle Bourbon, named for the county that is home to our limestone rich mountain spring water, is a smooth, sweet bourbon handcrafted using local Kentucky corn and wheat. This small batch spirit is bottled at barrel strength and displays distinct flavor notes of toffee, caramel and vanilla. Best served neat or in a chilled glass, this spirit is a must have for any bourbon aficionado.
Pure Blue Vodka is a small batch hand crafted spirit distilled from 100% corn and cut with limestone rich Kentucky mountain spring water for a clean crisp taste and subtle sweet finish.
In 1877 The Saturday Evening Post declared, "Kentucky is the home of the Moonshiner". BarrelHouse has revived this long tradition with the introduction of "Devil John Moonshine" in honor of Kentucky legend Devil John Wright. Devil John was a lawman and moonshiner from Eastern Kentucky in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Barrel House Distilling Company is proud to make our moonshine in his honor. It is a clean, smooth sipping shine that is also very mixable.
Made from the same recipe of corn and cane sugar, Devil John Darkshine adds a little extra twist upon the traditional mountain moonshine. Aged for ten months in small, once used charred oak bourbon barrels, this spirit also adds hints of caramel and vanilla that make for a smooth, refreshing finish. Darkshine may be sipped neat or on the rocks or in traditional Old Fashioned cocktails
Award Winning KY Oak Rum is aged for four years in once used bourbon barrels before being bottled at barrel strength. This fine rum is best served neat, on the rocks, or as a substitute for a fine bourbon in an Old Fashioned or Manhattan.
Made with the same recipe as our award winning Oak Rum, this unaged spirit is best in cocktails that call for a fine white rum. Or you can certainly sip on the rocks, if desired!
We are happy to offer tours & tastings as part of the Barrel House Distillery Experience. We are here Wednesday through Sunday from 11 am until 5 pm. Each tour starts on the hour with the final tour beginning at 4 pm. Guests should allow about an hour for the distillery experience and additional time to enjoy our gift shop!

While the HP iPAQ-510-Voice-Messenger does not offer anything new in the way of design or features, the device does make fairly good use of the latest technology. Perhaps nowhere is this more evident than in the voice command capabilities of the 510. With quick response and easy programming for basic commands, no other device can come close to the ease of use when it comes to voice activation. Along with the voice command protocols, it also gives you the ability to make the best use of Voice over Internet Protocol capabilities. Sometimes described as a candy bar phone, the 510 is a simple and compact design that slides easily into a lapel pocket or the front pocket of your favorite pair of jeans. The 510 is equipped with Windows Mobile 6.0, which means it has the latest in email capability.
On the down side, the 510 have some issues with the audio features. While the general audio is acceptable, activating the speakerphone function makes a noticeable change in the quality of the sound. Further work on the speaker function to bring the sound quality up to acceptable range would greatly enhance the attractiveness of the 510. Also, it is a good thing that the voice command capability is so advanced, as the keypad seems to be somewhat cramped, which may turn off some consumers.
There are a number of attractive features that are part of the HP iPAQ 510 Voice Messenger:
* State of the Art Voice Command Functions
* Enhanced Email Functionality
* Compact and Lightweight
* Moderately priced
* VoIP capability
Along with the assets, there are a few things to keep in mind about the HP iPAQ 510 Voice Messenger:
* Speakerphone performance is below par
* Cramped keypad and navigation controls
Camera has lower resolution

When I first read that we can prevent heart disease with a simple change in our diet, I was intrigued. I came to veganism because I loved animals and couldn't bear to do them any harm; the health benefits were a side effect for me.
I was drawn into the lifestyle by the overwhelming facts about the benefits of a vegan diet, among them the incredible increases in energy, decreases in body fat, and, as I learned, the chance to avoid degenerative diseases that I once believed to be inevitable parts of growing older. I thought genes eventually trumped everything else.
During that time of research, I stumbled upon Prevent and Reverse Heart Disease: The Revolutionary, Scientifically Proven, Nutrition-Based Cure, by Dr. Caldwell Esselstyn and learned that food alone can prevent and sometimes cure degenerative diseases.
After reading this book, the only question that remains for me is... why didn't I already know this? Heart disease is the single biggest deadly disease in the United States, and it affects women and men equally, but it still isn't common knowledge that we have the ability to prevent heart disease.
Isn't cancer supposed to be incurable? Don't you need double, triple, or quadruple bypasses once your heart disease progresses too far?
Eating a healthy, low-fat, high fiber, high healthy carbohydrate diet will help you prevent heart disease and avoid many dangerous illnesses that might have seemed inevitable. Even if your family has a genetic history of a certain disease, you will need to trigger those genes with an environmental factor in order for them to occur.
One of the biggest environmental factors that triggers genetic disposition for a diseases is diet.
If we can avoid pushing the red button that is our personal trigger for illness, we should be able to avoid "getting" the illness.
The best things to eat include vegetables (especially dark leafy greens), fruits, whole grains, beans and legumes, and nuts and seeds. If you're suffering from heart disease, cancer, diabetes, or another serious illness, it makes sense to lower your intake of added oils and sugars and keep your diet as whole as possible.
If you're used to eating meat and potatoes and don't enjoy the flavor of vegetables, it might just be the time to start adapting your taste buds to something new, especially if you're at high risk for developing degenerative diseases or if you're already suffering.
This little secret is that magic pill to cure illness we've been waiting our entire lives to see.
Though it's a book that reports scientific research and does use some technical terms, I found it pretty easy to read because it was so interesting. At the time, I was pretty blown away by the idea that diet alone could have such a fundamental impact on our chances for getting major illnesses.
Dr. Esselstyn's book proves that you can prevent heart disease by adopting a healthy, whole-foods, vegan diet into your life.

Kate Winslet Signs on for The Dressmaker
It's set in Australia. And she plays the dressmaker.
Kate Winslet will star in The Dressmaker, a drama about a couturier who, after years abroad, returns to her small Australian hometown — where she was accused of murder during her childhood. According to THR, Judy Davis will play Winslet's "eccentric" mother, who is perhaps keeping secrets about her daughter's past. The Dressmaker, based on Rosalie Ham's book of the same name, comes from writer-director Jocelyn Moorhouse (How to Make an American Quilt), who describes the film as "Unforgiven with a sewing machine." Time to have more movies that can be described as "[Something] with a sewing machine." "Jaws with a sewing machine," maybe. Or "Casablanca with a sewing machine."

Amazon's Amazing Kindle Growth Chart, 2012 Edition
Last September at Amazon's Kindle launch event in New York, Jeff Bezos showed this amazing chart of Kindle e-book sales just edging past Amazon's physical book sales. What a difference a year makes. Here's a screenshot from today's Amazon Kindle event in L.A.
Note that physical book sales continue to increase, though their growth rate has decelerated. But the big picture is that Kindle books are selling way faster than physical books, helped by things like cheaper Kindle devices and the Kindle Fire.
That said, the growth rate seems to be flattish now, with tiny curves in the line suggesting mild acceleration and deceleration. And my prediction a year ago that Amazon's Kindle sales "could be double its physical book sales in a year or so" has not come true yet. (It is, as usual, hard to take any chart that lacks a y-axis label too seriously. But I assume it's accurate.)
Still, pretty cool.

Against Marriage: A Ring Does Not Define a Relationship
A few years ago my boyfriend and I took our vows. "Let's vow never to get married," I said. And he agreed.
Last week Julia Shaw implored Slate readers to "Marry Young," arguing that becoming a wife at 23 means she and her husband now enjoy an "unmatched companionship." Amanda Marcotte replied by bringing up the fact that early marriages often end in early divorces. Her conclusion? "If he's good enough to marry, he'll still be around when you're ready to make that leap."
Eight years into our relationship, the furthest my boyfriend and I have "leapt" is designing a ring we both wear with the inscription, "To hold but not to have." That's our idea of living happily ever after.
But the expectation that all "good" relationships end in marriage is not limited to Marcotte or Shaw. The latter quoted a study stating only 40 percent of unmarrieds want to stay that way. At the same time, fewer couples are marrying than ever before. A report released last week by the National Center for Health Statistics revealed that 32 percent of couples skip nuptials entirely (48 percent of women aged 15 to 44 said their "first union" was cohabitation, not marriage). "Cohabitation is a common part of family formation in the United States, and serves both as a step toward marriage and as an alternative to marriage," the report said.
For those of us who see marriage less as a tie that binds and more as a tie that strains, foregoing the knot is essential to a healthy relationship. Like any institution, marriage has rules. It's these rules—the unspoken societal ones as well as the legally binding ones—that my boyfriend and I worry will weigh us down. Take the expectation that the male member rules the couple. One of my boyfriend's best friends recently told me he had been "pressuring" my boyfriend to ask me to marry him, as if, should I wish to enter holy matrimony, I couldn't just propose myself.
My boyfriend wouldn't want me to anyway. "I would never be just Chris ever again, I would always be Chris and Soraya," he says of post-marriage life. And he's right. With marriage, identities suddenly become fused—there is no husband without a wife and vice versa. For two people who fell in love with each other precisely because of their individuality, sacrificing this distinction would be counterproductive.
Perhaps it wouldn't be honest to discuss our stance on marriage without mentioning that both my boyfriend and I come from divorce. When you consider the apparent ease with which the never-married Johnny Depp and Vanessa Paradis drifted apart after 14 years together, it does seem that parting occasions less sweet sorrow for the unwed. Not to mention that you're under less pressure when every argument doesn't necessarily push you closer to the institution of divorce.
But one of the main reasons marriage is not important to us is that we already feel united. Putting a ring on it is not only superfluous, it's limiting. Our relationship cannot be symbolized by a solitaire or even a 20-carat Kardashian carbon copy. As Oprah Winfrey said in 2005 in response to why she and her partner of 27 years had never gotten hitched, "A piece of paper does not define a life." And a ring does not define a relationship.

Attention Veterans
Dear Editor,
Regarding the transportation of veterans to VA appointments:
The veteran must be able to get in and out of the vehicle without assistance from the driver. If the veteran needs a wheelchair to get around at the hospital or clinic, we will take them to the door and get them a wheelchair, which are provided by all hospitals and clinics. If you are scheduled to have surgery and will be sedated, you will need someone to sign you out to be released. We would like for you to bring a family member or friend to do that. If one is not available, we need to know so we can schedule a caregiver to be with you. A lot of surgeries are scheduled early in the morning and for some surgeries you may spend the night before at the VA – the VA will let you know your options.
The VA pays $.415 per mile to the veteran for travel to VA appointments; if you drive yourself, you need to ask at the hospital or clinic for the form to fill out. The VA now sends all mileage due via the mail; it takes about two weeks to receive your check. Mileage is not authorized to be paid to a veteran if they ride in the VA van to an appointment, as the VA pays for the fuel and vehicle upkeep. If more than one veteran has an appointment the same day, the van leaves in time for the earliest appointment to be made. We ask that veterans be considerate of other veterans as some may have an early appointment and some later in the day. If more than one veteran has an appointment, the van stays until the last veteran is done.
To schedule the van we need at least two to three working days' notice so we can schedule the driver. Please stop by our office, located in the southeast corner of the old Armory building – look for the Veteran Service Office sign. The office is open from 8:00 a.m. to 12 noon, Monday through Friday. You may also call me, Mike Harvey, at 812-585-7550, or email me at email@example.com to schedule a ride.
Mike Harvey,
Owen County

The 2017 Southern Knights made history by making Finals in our very first trip to DCA World Championships, and by being the first DCA competitive Corps from the state of Alabama in DCA's 53 year history!!!
We performed in prelims on Saturday, September 2nd and performed well enough to advance to Finals competition on Sunday, finishing the preliminary competition in 4th place. Maintaining that 4th place slot in Finals , we finished off the historic season with a final score of 74.60!!!
Up first: Southern Knights (20 brass, 10 battery, 7 pit, 4 guard, 1DM) presenting their 2016 program "Quest For The Crown"
In their first year of field competition, SK made a splash at several DCI shows in Alabama with some impressive numbers. It's a shame DCA chose not to allow the Knights to formally compete. These guys mean business and would be right in the running for a Class A title this year. The show is full of lots of great solo, small ensemble, and full ensemble playing. If you like the classic G bugle sound, you owe it to yourself to check these guys out next season. Seriously. They will become a force to be reckoned with in DCA South.
Highlights: The drum major comes onto the field for some very nice solo soprano playing during the ballad, and the very competent horn section is headlined by some strong contrabasses and a few superstar mellos. Percussion is very good, especially in the corps' first season with a full drumline.
The Southern Knights Drum and Bugle Corps is a new Drum & Bugle Corps in the Birmingham, Alabama area. However the corps leadership has over 100 years of experience in the performing arts arena. The purpose of this organization is to provide our members with an educational program of the highest quality, with the opportunity to develop and continue their musical, visual arts, drum corps and color guard/dance performance abilities in a structured environment. Developing real life skills in teamwork, self discipline, preparedness, accountability, critical thinking, and leadership - all in a family atmosphere that fosters relationships that last a lifetime. The Southern Knights is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization. As such, we depend on generous donors to help with the financial needs to operate. Donations are tax deductible under IRC Section 170.

It is ironic that Standard & Poor's, one of the three major credit rating agencies at the heart of the financial crisis, would downgrade the United States' credit rating from triple-A to AA+.
After all, S&P should have properly assessed the asset-backed housing securities that led to the Great Recession not as investment-grade but what they actually were. Junk.
A full $3 trillion of the $14.3 trillion U.S. deficit that S&P cited as its main reason for the downgrade has been spent as a result of the recession that S&P helped cause. This money has been put into emergency bailout measures to maintain some stability in the economy and prevent the recession from becoming a full blown-out depression. This includes the Troubled Asset Relief Program (TARP), Federal Reserve rescue efforts and stimulus programs.
And then, of course, on top of this $3 trillion, there is the $2 trillion discrepancy that the U.S. Treasury said that S&P made, and admitted to, in its assessment of the future of the federal debt burden.
As one Treasury representative said, "a judgment flawed by a $2 trillion error speaks for itself."
S&P's downgrade continues further, to say that should macroeconomic conditions deteriorate and the government fail to enact a second round of spending cuts, the U.S.'s net public debt burden could rise from a projected 74% of GDP in 2011 to 90% in 2015 and 101% by 2021. If this happens, S&P warns it will further downgrade the nation's credit rating to AA.
S&P also notes that the recent revisions of first and second-quarter GDP growth, to 0.8% and 1.3%, respectively, "show the recent recession was deeper than previously assumed. Consequently, the debt burden is slightly higher."
John Chambers, head of S&P's sovereign ratings, told ABC's "This Week" that even if Washington agrees on spending cuts and higher taxes, it could take nine to 18 years for the country to regain its triple-A rating.
Moody's countered this with a confirmation of the U.S.' Aaa rating, citing the Budget Control Act as "positive for the credit" of the nation. Moody's also said the U.S. debt is in line with other Aaa-rated nations, and noted America's "long record of relatively solid economic growth."
Asset management firms must cancel out S&P's overly harsh assessment and blow to investor confidence by pointing to the might of our nation and the prospects for our future.
