Ten years ago today I was stepping out of the shower to find my husband, looking grim, handing me the phone. It was the producer from NPR I'd been working with the past week on a piece on living in Wyoming that was supposed to air this morning, a piece that had already caused numerous headaches for me to finish writing. I'd been dreading this day's work nearly all week and now the producer was calling to tell me it was cancelled. I began to make silent, celebratory gestures at my husband, but he cut me short. "No," he hissed. "No, it's not good."
The producer told me something was happening in New York. Something or someone had hit the Twin Towers, and now something had just hit the Pentagon as well. It wasn't clear if they were related or not.
"The Pentagon?" I asked.
"Yes," the producer said, her voice fraying a little.
"My cousin works at the Pentagon. He's in the Navy wing."
The producer paused. "My cousin works at the towers," she finally said.
"Have you talked to him?"
"No," she said. "Do you need to call someone?"
"I think so. Do you?"
We sat silent on the phone for awhile, as my husband rushed to the next room to turn on the radio, our only source of communication. The producer turned to speak to someone just behind her, and then came back on the phone.
"Oh my God," she said, but didn't clarify what this referred to. Then she added, "Good luck."
I wished her good luck as well and went to find my husband in the living room. He was standing by the old stereo he'd bought in grad school, black, the one with one of its speakers still blown out from a Halloween party. He was standing with his forehead furrowed so tightly I could see one of the veins in his temple throb. He turned to me. He said, "We need to get a television."
The rest of the day was spent in an odd fog, as my husband and I tried to go about our day in Laramie, Wyoming, while all around us televisions and radios were turned on full volume, people gathered in small groups in front of the screens and speakers, listening, talking, crying as they called friends. Each time I entered a room with a television in it, the towers had just finished falling or the video in which people were running away from the twin towers had just started up again. People in the rooms who'd seen the video footage were crying or shouting at the screen. But I never saw the towers fall.
My cousin Jon worked at the Navy wing in the Pentagon. AA flight 77 hit the Pentagon at the ground level in the Navy wing at 9:37 a.m. Jon, like many men in my family, was a military man: he'd gone to the Naval Academy in Annapolis and graduated in the top 10 of his class: a distinction all the more impressive to us as he was also one of the few Asian Americans in the academy itself. He went on to command a nuclear submarine; he was, in fact, the person in charge of deploying some of the first missile strikes against Iraq in the first Iraq War. At home, my parents and I liked to joke that he was the "awe" in the "shock and awe" campaign. Jon was my favorite, most revered cousin--revered not just by me, but by my entire family, as his good looks and quiet, intense intelligence regularly left us speechless with pride and a little intimidated. Not only was he the most ambitious member of our family, he was the most focused, the most driven. He was always a little out of our league, we thought, which may be why we took to calling him "Jon-Jon," as if he were one of the Kennedys. When flight 77 struck the Pentagon, shearing into the very section of the building where Jon worked after he had retired from active duty, it killed over 40 people that Jon worked with and had been close to for years. The only reason Jon himself was unharmed--the only reason he is alive today--is that he was stuck in traffic that morning on his way to Langley, where he was supposed to get promoted.
But we didn't know that for many, many hours.
Two months after that morning, I was at a conference in Oxford, England, at something called The British American Project, which gathered together what the conference called the "best young minds" of Britain and America, to talk shop, schmooze, sit in little conference rooms in small groups to discuss the topic listed on the dry erase board for us. I never really understood the point of the conference, but the people were all smart and interesting, and there was a lot of booze. And then, one afternoon, my group was asked to talk about September 11. We were each supposed to go around the room and say, one by one, what that day meant to us.
Most of the people in the room were British or from Northern Ireland, so they kept their memories short. There were only four Americans in the room that day, including me, and two were from New York City. When it came to our turn, the New Yorkers--unsurprisingly--started to cry. While I understood and generally sympathized with their emotion, this also made me a little angry. The whole situation was designed to make us teary and upset: I didn't want us to play into that conference's expectation of us. I certainly didn't want to cry; I had no plans to turn myself into a side-show of pain for strangers, and I didn't want to see other people have to do that either. After all, we were in a room filled with people who were NOT Americans, and many of them had already experienced, from their time living in London or Belfast, the real costs of long-term terrorism on their own soil.
But when it came to me, and the moderator asked what my experience had been on September 11, I opened my mouth to say "My cousin Jon worked at the Pentagon--" and then, horrifyingly, I started to cry.
An argument immediately erupted. "I get that this is horrible for you all," a young man from Belfast said. "But in time it will get better."
"What are you TALKING ABOUT?" snapped a woman from L.A. "You have no idea what this is like for us. What do you mean IT WILL GET BETTER?"
"I mean that the pain will fade," he returned angrily. "And in its place will be an understanding for why this happened, what America's place in all this has been."
"I'm sorry," said one of the New Yorkers, a film director who had recently put out a film on drag queens in Paris. "You come to my place in Brooklyn, you stand with the windows open and smell the smell of burned flesh and scorched metal and god knows what else, and you tell me this will fade."
"He doesn't mean your emotions aren't raw," an academic from Cambridge broke in, "but this will be a reminder that the event--tragic and horrible as it is--isn't historically unusual. It was extreme in its creativity and effects, but it isn't unusual. America is like the rest of the world now."
"How can you say that?" the woman from L.A., a producer or agent or lawyer (I never figured out what she did), cried. "Name one other country that this has happened to!"
"Pakistan, Israel, Northern Ireland, England, France, Spain, India, Indonesia," the Cambridge academic began.
"But nothing like this! Nothing like this!"
I sat silently, drying my eyes. I agreed with the woman from Cambridge and the man from Belfast, but my tears--uncontrolled, unbidden--had put me on the side with the other outraged Americans. In truth, I was probably in the middle of the two groups--outraged, terrified, but also aware America had now simply joined a long list of other nations of the world living with terrorism. The attacks made victims of certain Americans, but it did not make America innocent. We were ridiculous to think we could continue to do--politically--what we'd done for generations without some nightmarish cost to pay.
But there I was: a lumpen, sodden mess, snivelling and--when it was really important to explain myself, to say that it was all fine, my cousin Jon was not killed, I was not myself wounded or injured, I was not one of those hawkish war-mongers seething in our congress--silent. And that, for me, has been what's been like, living in America the past ten years. All of us caught between two impulses in conflict--the emotional and the rational impulses behind patriotism--that have progressively destroyed our nation. Around the time of September 11, I read a New Yorker article about Al-Qaeda that had a line in it that's stuck with me. Paraphrased, it's this: "What the leaders of this movement are most afraid of is modernity, its challenges, and its sense of competition." That has haunted me to this day. Because that day, crying in front of a bunch of other strangers about something I didn't even cry about when it happened, I, too, was afraid of modernity. If this was what the modern world was--a place of sudden and extreme violence, being victim to political and economic and technological forces you can barely understand, let alone control--then I didn't want to be a part of it either. It strikes me that this fear of modernity has infected America as a whole as well. We're the country where major political contenders now disagree with evolution, disbelieve science, want to slash federal funding to schools, public arts and news organizations, health care, social security: all things that have, in part, defined the secular humanist values of modernism. We're the nation that has a man running for president who thinks fasting and prayer are the way to solve a deficit crisis. We're the nation that mistrusts the educated, and forces political candidates to explicate their religious beliefs and affiliations at length. If a fear of modernity is what, in part, defined Al-Qaeda, then it certainly defines us now as well. We went from being one of the nations that shaped the political and cultural advances of secular humanism to being a nation in numb retreat into fundamentalist ideology.
You tell me that the terrorists haven't won.
I finally did see footage of the towers falling, two years after September 11. I had just moved to Salt Lake City for my new job and was in the Broadway Theater, alone, watching a Canadian film about a family in Montreal. It was the sequel to another film, The Rise and Fall of the American Empire, I think it was called, which I'd once seen in my twenties. This film was meant to follow up on the themes of capitalist collapse, though I don't remember much about the film itself. Nothing, that is, except that at one point the entire screen fills with news video footage of the towers in the act of falling, masses of smoke twisting and seething as floor after floor after collapses--fast as a chain of dominoes--all the way to the ground.
"Oh my God!" I shouted. The whole theater turned to look at me. Who is THAT? someone muttered. Who the hell hasn't seen THAT before? Tears were once more--dismayingly--running down my cheeks. I couldn't control myself; my hands were trembling. All those years without a t.v., I'd never seen it. The other patrons were still looking at me. I scanned their dark faces in the crowd, thinking I'd see the same stunned look on some of their faces looking back at me--how are we living like this? How can we bear thinking of it?--but found their faces, even in the dark, were blank. The look the other patrons gave me--bored or surprised, a little annoyed at the interruption--made me blush, embarrassed for myself. "Sorry," I whispered. And the other movie-goers, shrugging, turned back in their seats.

Last weekend the Fiero interior was finally finished and on Friday, took it down to the Marathon to pick up a 6 pack of Buckeye Lake Shovel Head to celebrate. The Fiero was then driven home on Rt 70 and accelerated smoothly to 70 mph. The pack voltage meter was now reading amps correctly and was actually able to do some comparisons of the amount of amps needed to cruse at 60, 65, and 70 mph. Surprisingly, there was only a slight difference from 60 to 65 mph but jumped considerably to cruse at 70.
Upon returning home and popping the top on a nice cold Shovel Head, noticed that the temperature in the house was up around 75 deg with the thermostat set on 72 deg, so went down to the basement to check the duct filter. The filter was a little dirty, so pulled it out and cleaned it. The temperature in the house came down over night to 72, but while looking around the air handler in the basement, did notice that the large tube going into the evaporator was not quite as cold as normal and the small line seemed warmer than usual. By Saturday afternoon the temperature was in the high 80s approaching 90 deg outside and the house temperature started coming up again. The filter had just been cleaned, so went outside to look at the compressor unit. Sure enough, the condenser fan was not running, so removed the cover on the top of the unit and was able to put a small window fan on top of it. The temperature in the house came down a degree but did not come back to 72 deg until Sunday morning. Figuring the chance of finding a new fan motor on Sunday was slim and none, fired up the internet to look for an industrial fan to put on top of the unit. After a short search, one was found at a reasonable price at Lowes, and they were showing two in stock at their store in Reynoldsburg, OH, so jumped into my truck and headed to the store to pick one up. Upon returning home, the 24 inch round industrial fan was put on top of the condenser on the compressor unit and believe it or not, the temperature in the house dropped back down to 72 deg. It was 90 deg outside so this was really good news!
My wife asked me to pick up a few items for her at Kroger in Pataskala, OH and had been charging the Fiero during the day, actually leaving the windows down so the interior would be cool if I decided to take it for a ride.I decided to stop by a car wash in Etna, OH, as the car had been sitting all spring was was quite dusty. I almost did not go through the car wash as I was a little worried about getting water in the controller since I had removed the old rubber splash guards and had not installed the new ones yet. I decided to go for it and purchased the least expensive wash, as those usually do not spray water underneath the car as it is entering. The HURRICANE car wash must want you to be really satisfied because as soon as I pulled in the jets started spraying underneath the car. I speed up a little to try and get as little water up in the engine compartment as possible. After the wash had completed, the car pulled out of the car wash, through the dryer and out toward the street just fine. As I turned onto the street the car came to a halt, right in the left hand lane. I got out of the car and lifted the motor compartment hood and ............

1. Keep yourself clean:
2. Skin care:
Wash your face twice a day with a mild face wash to remove any excess oil or dirt. Moisturize your skin to keep your skin soft, healthy and supple. If you get pimples, treat them at the initial stage. Always wear SPF 15 before stepping out (to avoid any sun damage).
3. Hair care:
Give proper nourishment to your hair, massage your hair with natural oil before every wash. Shampoo your hair regularly (twice a week) with a mild shampoo to keep your hair and scalp clean. Use a conditioner after the shampoo to make your hair look shiny and manageable. Don't keep your hair loose daily as it may pull dust from the surrounding. You can pick various hair styles to enhance your looks.
4. Dress up well:
A well dressed person always fetches the attention. Well dressed, doesn't mean scantily dressed! Wear clothes that suit and make you feel comfortable.
- Dress up according to the season-
If its summer, go for soft shades and light fabrics. In winters prefer something
warm and dark shaded.
- Wear a light perfume (avoid overpowering fragrance).
- Pick appropriate shoes for the dress you are wearing.
5. Grooming:
One tip to look beautiful without make-up is to be well groomed-trim and shape your eyebrows regularly; get rid of unwanted body hair using wax or hair removal creams, trim and shape your nails regularly, consult a dentist in case you have misaligned teeth. Take care of these basic details to look beautiful even without any make-up.
6. Cool hair cut:
7. Be confident:
Just feel confident! Be proud of who you are.
- Keep your shoulders and back up straight.
- Don't try to be someone you are not, just be yourself.
- Remember none is flawless, so don't feel ashamed of your flaws.
8. Nap and Nutrition:
- To make your skin look beautiful feed it with proper nutrition. Include lots of salad, fresh fruits, juices and green vegetables in your diet and drink plenty of water.
- Get enough sleep (at least 8 hours a day) to make your skin look fresh and beautiful.
9. Regular exercise:
Exercise regularly (at least 30-45 minutes daily) as exercise promotes blood circulation giving you natural glow and proper body shape.
10. Wear a smile:

Should Snowboarders Wear Wrist Guards?
My answer is absolutely YES! As an Emergency Physician, the top three types of injuries I see in snowboarders are head injuries/concussions, wrist injuries and shoulder injuries. It is nice to see that so many skiers and boarders have transitioned to wearing helmets on the hill. That has definitely cut down on the number … Continued

It doesn't matter who wins the coin toss, once again Americans are going to be screwed by the two major parties …
Prior to the 2016 presidential election cycle, the Republicans appeared to be relying on the fact that Hillary Clinton was so toxic, any Republican candidate could beat her in spite of a complicit mainstream media and dishonest polling that showed her as a lock for the Presidency. There was no need to talk about fiscal responsibility, smaller government, fewer rules, and regulations … Everybody was pointing to the repeal and replacement of Obamacare, the nullification of the Paris Climate Accords, tax reform, and the biggest issue: placing a conservative on the Supreme Court of the United States to maintain some form of artificial political balance that proved that the Supreme Court was not about protecting the Constitution, but about preserving partisan positions.
Now we are faced with the 2018 congressional election cycle, and the Progressive Socialist Democrats appear to be relying on the fact that President Trump is such a disaster, the Democrats will recapture the House of Representatives so racist crazies like Maxine Waters can offer their impeachment bills. The mantra for this new election cycle is "A Better Deal: Better Skills, Better Jobs, Better Wages" – all of which is the same Bullsh*t they have been peddling for years. One look at the inner cities, governed by progressives for decades, is proof positive that the progressives are both corrupt and racist. It is almost like saying, "We're back, and it's our turn to loot the Treasury."
'Splain it to me, Lucy …
- Why are the progressive socialist democrats so dead set against voter identification when the poorest among us need identification to collect their benefits?
- Why is it that progressive socialist democrats slow walk every ethics investigation involving their party?
- Why is it that progressive socialist Democrats look at white supremacists and fail to notice that they are considerably outnumbered by the Black Muslims, the socialist Antifa and Black Lives Matter movements?
- Why is it that the progressive mainstream media continues to distort the news with a bias towards the hard left anti-America crowd?
And it is not on all one side …
- Why are the Republicans so afraid of resolving all of the FBI-investigated scandals of the past administration?
- Why are the Republicans so afraid of the conservatives within their party?
- Why do the Republicans hold on to ineffective leaders like John Boehner, Paul Ryan, and Mitch McConnell?
Bottom line …
Could it be that all of the investigations are a joke, that each side has enough dirt on their opponents to ensure mutually assured destruction? Could it be that our intelligence agencies are blackmailing our political leadership? Could it be that we have run out of patriots willing to act on behalf of our country rather than to feather their own nests?
How are these professional politicians getting rich so quickly while earning a modest salary? Something stinks.
If you want to see what unrestrained progressive socialist Democrats can do to a healthy, vibrant state, look no further than California. Billion dollar trains to nowhere while the roads purposely crumble. Onerous taxes collected for one purpose and the re-jiggered into supporting something else. Politicians who lie, knowing that if they follow the party line, they will be rewarded with a 6-figure no-show job on some commission.
Folks, we are screwed.
Perhaps the answer is to elect the least likely candidate who appears sane over professional politicians?

|I've wanted this figure ever since I saw it for pre-order... ;w; The base is so unique and I love her expression!
|It's kinda hard NOT to want this since I recently cosplayed her. Also, I love how lightweight she looks, and yet has an unmistakable presence as well.
|I love the sense of movement in this figure.. she seems photogenic from every angle.
|It's on pre-order.. coming out in March ;A; SHE'S SO DAMN CUTE HERE AGHH.
|Again, the base is intriguing and the movement in her stance is nice... I also remember this being one of the first songs I listened to from Miku, so it's pretty nostalgic. Pre-order again..
One day I will own these... until then I can only drool over the photos.
Until next time!

Sudoku Song #1
Sudoku lovers have gained a notorious reputation for being passionate and vocal about their favourite mental pastime ever since it exploded onto the international puzzle scene in 2005. Sudoku quickly became very popular for its deceptively simple design…and addictive qualities! A common myth is that you have to be good at sums to play, but in fact Sudoku is based around logic, not mathematics.
Grid devotees are certainly not shy about creatively revealing their mutual obsession – a whole range of movies, books and paintings have been produced by those who wished to share their personal Sudoku stories with the world.
But songs?
Yes, that's right, talented fans have also musically expressed their devotion to Sudoku! I'm very pleased to introduce keen puzzler and professional singer Peter Levy to the YouPlay community with his tuneful contribution. I think this is a fantastic effort - and maybe we can convince Peter to write a YouPlay theme song next!
Have a listen, then post a comment and tell me what you think.

Re: A serious question for those who oppose our views.
If the loss of so many manufacturing jobs is because of shipping them overseas, then how come . . .
1) The US produces more now than it did even a few years ago, not to mention last year or 40 years ago (sources for this multiple times in this thread)?
2) Even China is losing manufacturing jobs and is shifting more to a service-based economy? Source is here:
'China is losing more manufacturing jobs than the United States. For the entire economy between 1995 and 2002, China lost 15 million manufacturing jobs, compared with 2 million in the U.S., The Conference Board reports in a study released today.
As its manufacturing productivity accelerates, China is losing jobs in manufacturing many more than the United States is and gaining them in services, a pattern that has been playing out in the developed world for many years, concludes The Conference Board study.
. . .
China is rapidly losing manufacturing jobs in the same industries where the U.S. and other major countries have seen jobs disappear, such as textiles. Matthew Spiegelman, Economist at The Conference Board and co-author of the study, notes: The U.S. lost 202,000 textile jobs between 1995 and 2002, a tremendous decline by any measure. But China lost far more jobs in this sector 1.8 million. All told, 26 of Chinas 38 major industries registered job losses between 1995 and 2002."
3) How did the US have trade deficits for nearly every year from 1790-1975 and not suffer catastrophie? And how does Australia (and some other nations, too) have trade deficits going back practically forever with no ill effects?
In fact, nearly every nation in the world has lost manufacturing jobs, as I showed much earlier in this thread.
I do not doubt that some jobs go overseas. But if even the Chinese (and almost everyone else) are losing manufacturing jobs, I think you have somewhere else to look for most of the job losses.
Citing Bush's stats will do no good on me, I'm not a Bush fan.

Re: A serious question for those who oppose our views.
For some comparisons, here are some home ownership rates of other industrialized nations. Recall the 69.2% I just posted for the US:
http://www.abs.gov.au/Ausstats/[email protected]?OpenDocument
"In August 2001, 4.6 million (69%) households in Australia owned their dwellings (with or without a mortgage)."
About the same as the US.
In fact, in Australia, home ownership rates have also not risen much at all in the past few decades:
Page 27:
"Owner-occupation rates in Australia have traditionally been high by international standards, remaining relatively stable over the past few decades at around 70 percent."
Since they have "not risen," does that mean that they're undergoing "economic malaise?" LOL!!!
"The majority of Canadian households own their homes, with 66 per cent of the housing stock owner-occupied in 2001."
Also about the same as the US. A little lower, actually.
New Zealand:
"Home ownership rates have fallen from 74% to 68% over the past 10 years. If the present trend continues, the home ownership rate could fall below 65% within 10 years."
About the same as the US, but getting worse (unlike the US).
"At present 70% of homes in Britain are owner-occupied."
Again, basically the same as the US.
So, since all of these nations have about the same home ownership rates as the US, I'd say we're in pretty good company. And since our rate is even higher than mono-racial Japan, we're obviously doing better than them.

Re: A serious question for those who oppose our views.
Gentlemen, forgive me for intruding into your academic debate about the respective health of our Republic. Let me say that I am a Senior level engineer in a large manufacturing concern in the midwest. My state has lost roughly 250K manufacturing jobs in the last three years, principally due too the continued erosion in market share of our domestic industry. Last week, one of my old companies just filed for Chapter 11 (sales around 3 billion, no small company) and there are no shortages of pending firms close to going bankrupt. Within a few years, probably one of our last large domestic OEMs will also file for Chap. 11.
I'm glad that the continued erosion of our manufacturing segment can at least provide some of the members of this forum with some wistful entertainment. I am originally from a steel mill town which has long since been shut down, but recently was being salvaged for its scrap iron, being sent of course to China. Anecodotal I'm sure, but not amusing from my perspective. Please, produce another chart to tell me how good things are.
Many segments of my industry have been outsourced, I know in that I've worked with many of them. It used to be Mexico for manufacturing and India for analysis, but today it's China and Russia. Who knows what tomorrows countries of choice will be. I personally, don't give a damn if we outsource our entertainment or programming jobs, but manufacturing is the backbone of this country. A country providing only services has no future except as a servant to those who actually produce.

" Edmunds.com (http://www.edmunds.com), the premier online resource for automotive information, has found that manufacturer-to-consumer incentives and rebates spur higher spending by new car buyers, while prices for cars in general continues to fall . . . Studying a fixed basket of new vehicles with fixed options over time presents a different picture. In May 2003, the Edmunds Price Index for new vehicles (EPI-N) was down to 97.1 from its base reference point of 100 in January 2002, reflecting a 0.3% decrease from April 2003. Most vehicle categories reflect a steady decline since January 2002. Compact SUVs and compact cars have each dropped more than 5% in this period, to 94.6 and 94.9, respectively."
And even over the longer term than just the past few years, they have still been falling:
" Since 1997 new-vehicle prices have been coming down, notes auto analyst Lincoln Merrihew.
"We've had deflation in the auto industry," he tells an Auto Remarketing Forum Series in San Francisco. "The auto industry is going the way of the computer industry. Each next model has more features for less money."

Re: A serious question for those who oppose our views.
I expect it to get progressively better with each passing decade. If it doesn't, then I'll expect that as being a part of life, just as you should expect nationalism is a part of life.
Remember that the products you're trying to sell us are multiculturalism and immigration, and if you want us to be sold on the idea, you have to prove that things are far and beyond better than they would be if we had maintained the status quo during the 1950s and didn't embark on this hurly-burly merry-go-round ride called "multiculturalism."
But it's not just about the home ownership rate. That's only one of many indicators.
I would blame that on a lack of space, something that we'll experience in America someday. They pack 'em in like sardines in Japan. I once saw an article about a hotel "room" which just consisted of a small cubicle to sleep in. I probably wouldn't even fit inside one of those things.
Let's see if it gets up to 100% first, and if I feel like complaining about it, I'll send you an e-mail.
It still doesn't convince me that the list price has anything to do with the actual cost of building a house.
Actually, no, I was referring to wages unadjusted for inflation. The minimum wage has only increased 2.5 times since 1974, without adjusting for inflation, while cars have increased in price at a higher rate than that.
I don't really believe that the US "should" have a poverty rate of zero, etc., etc. I'm saying that multiculturalism, immigration, and outsourcing have hurt America in so many different aspects, economics being just one of them.
The reason why I use the minimum wage as an indicator is because if you wish to prove that multiculturalism, outsourcing, and immigration are better for America, then that should be true for all segments of society, especially those at the lowest levels.
I would try to explain it to you in greater detail, but then you would complain about me going into topics you don't wish to discuss. I've just realized that part of the reason you really don't understand is because you think two-dimensionally. That is, you're locked in the classic economic ideological contrast between capitalism vs. socialism. Your arguments against nationalism seem completely separate and divorced from your arguments regarding globalism and capitalism. In fact, you always seem to get annoyed when I try to link the two, but it's really your own fault. You never consider the third choice beyond capitalism and socialism.
So, from this "cynic" who lives in a "fantasy world," I say that it is better to see the world as it truly is, since that provides the impetus and desire to make it better. To look at the world through rose-colored glasses is also a "fantasy world" of sorts, but it causes just the opposite reaction, making one resistant to change and progress. At least I will acknowledge that my "fantasy world" has not yet been achieved. You already think you're living in it.

Re: A serious question for those who oppose our views.
2. The US home ownership rate has gone up since 1960, from 61.9% to 69.2%.
3. US GDP per capita has gone up since 1973, from $16,607 to $35,992 in 2003.
4. Even if wages have stagnated since the early-mid 1970's, many things (such as my cars example, not to mention all the cheap TV's and stereos, etc.) have gotten much cheaper, sometimes not even adjusting for inflation. For one example, if you look at ads for TV's from the 1960's, they are the same price they are now. Since inflation has otherwise gone way up, the relative price has gone down. So, even with stagnating wages, we can afford more things with those wages - hence, this has resulted in an overall increase in living standards.
All that aside, there is far more to determining how much money people are making than just "wages." For starters, here's some data on personal income for the US from 1969 to 2004 you can examine:
Oh, and Britain is more multicultural than Japan, but we won't get into that . . .
In fact, only 3 percent of all hourly wage-earners earn the minium wage! The other 97% earn MORE!!
"I wasn't really referring to those on the very bottom anyway. Things might be better for those on welfare and food stamps, but I wasn't really talking about that."
Anyway, for some comparisons, here are some home ownership rates of other industrialized nations. Recall the 69.2% I posted above for the US:
http://www.abs.gov.au/Ausstats/[email protected]?OpenDocument
"In August 2001, 4.6 million (69%) households in Australia owned their dwellings (with or without a mortgage)."
About the same as the US.
In fact, in Australia, home ownership rates have also not risen much at all in the past few decades:
Page 27:
"Owner-occupation rates in Australia have traditionally been high by international standards, remaining relatively stable over the past few decades at around 70 percent."
Since they have "not risen," does that mean that they're undergoing "economic malaise?" LOL!!!
"The majority of Canadian households own their homes, with 66 per cent of the housing stock owner-occupied in 2001."
Also about the same as the US. A little lower, actually.
New Zealand:
"Home ownership rates have fallen from 74% to 68% over the past 10 years. If the present trend continues, the home ownership rate could fall below 65% within 10 years."
About the same as the US, but getting worse (unlike the US).
"At present 70% of homes in Britain are owner-occupied."
Again, basically the same as the US.

Re: A serious question for those who oppose our views.
We're sitting on a bubble. The empire is living on it's fat. The treasury is not only empty, but faces a debt level beyond the pale. Who is going to pay that? The net gains in GDP per capita are obscured by a gigantic federal Ponzi scheme. The capitalists are importing millions of wage slaves off the books - if these Mexicans were on the books, your poverty percentages would be about the same as in 1960, I hazard an educated guess - if not higher than 22%. From your own source, the labor source in Yakima valley is nearly all illegal, and the apple pickers can expect to make about $8000 a year. That's generally the picture for all the illegal Mexicans.
We can't import poverty and export wealth, year after year, at these breathtaking levels, without consequence. We can't continue to obscure a shrinking labor market with a federal hiring bonanza.
It's true that the domestic situation is not all that bad yet. Things were booming along in August of 1929, also.
We're driving off a cliff and you're telling us the car is running just fine.

Re: A serious question for those who oppose our views.
There is also far more to determining the relative health of a country than just looking at the GDP rate.
My point about wages and living standards is still made. No matter how much spin you put on these figures, you simply can not deny that the country has slowed down severely since the advent of multiculturalism and anti-racism.
And the market is artificially skewed by bringing in millions of immigrants to cause a spike in demand for housing, and thus, the prices have gone up.
And because of immigration, the home ownership rates are not entirely accurate, since it undoubtedly includes non-whites and immigrants in that figure.
Well, then this statement reveals that you are really not clear on nationalist economics. Nationalism is not the same thing as socialism. Socialists are anti-racists and multiculturalists, just like you.
But what is it that you're proposing? The same kind of imperial system of exploitation (which, coincidentally, involves millions of non-white cheap laborers)? Isn't that something you antis have condemned when referring to America's past? You're just implementing the same system in new, prettier-looking packaging, but your audacity comes through when you call it "enlightened" and "tolerant."
And if that's the proposal you're making, then all I'm saying is that White Americans should get something substantial in return for all their trouble. A White American earning minimum wage is more important than any foreigner or non-white, no matter how wealthy, educated, or highly-placed they might be. Until you can understand this concept, you won't understand nationalism. In contrast, socialists do not make such distinctions. They view all people as interchangable and "equal," just like you.
So, I would say that your viewpoint is closer to Marxism than ours is. Even though you're a supporter of laissez-faire economics, you're still a Cultural Marxist, so your economic position has to be taken in that light.
You're mischaracterizing things again. My basic points on those subjects are still valid, but your incessant spin and misdirection have caused those points to be lost.
And since you've ignored all other arguments and facts mentioned in our various discussions (i.e. crime, social/culture rot, balkanization, multilingualism, decline in family values, etc.), because you believe them to be "off-topic" in your economic analysis, your whole position becomes flawed because you only discuss specific, confined topics. You are only looking at individual trees (through rose-colored glasses, no less), while I see the entire forest.
SDY: Hey, Thinker, the forest is on fire. Maybe we should do something?
Thinker: What are you talking about? Look at this tree here. Can't you see it's thriving?
SDY: Yes, but how long is it going to last with this fire spreading?
Thinker: You don't know anything about trees, do you? Here, look at this other tree. I've compiled a series of graphs and charts about this particular tree, and this tree is also thriving.
SDY: But what about the fire?
Thinker: Well that's way over on the other side of the forest. We can always get our timber from other portions of the forest which haven't burnt up yet.
SDY: You don't anything about fire, do you?
Thinker: I don't want to talk about that subject, since I'm only talking about one or two trees here. I don't want to confuse the matter.
SDY: I think we should build a fire break to protect ourselves and our own trees at least.
Thinker: Nonsense! Fires have been burning all over this forest since - forever. No need to worry. Our trees will never burn, and I have plenty of charts and graphs to prove it.
SDY: What about all these firebugs you're letting in from other sections of the forest? They started fires in their own territories. What makes you think they won't start fires here?
Thinker: They won't.
SDY: What makes you so certain?
Thinker: I'm certain. Don't you know anything about the Arboreal Coefficient of Leaf Variance? Here are a few articles on the subject, and more charts and graphs. Besides, I really like Chinese food anyway.

Re: A serious question for those who oppose our views.
As far as housing is concerned, population growth is a bigger factor in determining price than the cost of developing the land, getting permits, etc. as Thinker has suggested. And population growth is almost entirely the result of immigration. Yes, King County inflates property values so they can create more tax revenue, but the growth in Western Washington is really the driving force. The average price of a house in the greater Seattle area is about $260,000. And according to the morgage companies that means a person needs two incomes (be married) totalling about $75k/year. Yes, you can do it with less under some circumstances but you are always one paycheck away from trouble and personally I think that is a tough way to live.
Thinker, have you also considered the cost to public infastructure that immigrants impose? Every state in the union is in debt and just about every month we hear Ron Simms talk about raising taxes and slashing county services due to cost. My location is listed as "1200 miles north of San. Francisco/L.A." because Washington state has inherited the worst aspects of California. Traffic, pollution, housing costs, less natural environment, etc. are all issues that were once confined to California but we now have to deal with. Go to http://archives.seattletimes.nwsource.com and search for "Too Many People Crammed in Fast Dwindling Spaces" for an editorial regarding the population problems in California. (Free registration is required.)
The U.S. takes in 50% of the world's refugees and many of them are so alien to our culture that they will not increase our countries value (or more importantly our racial fitness) but only take resources away from the majority. Consider that Washington State has the third largest population of Somali bantu refugees in the nation. They need to be taught how to use indoor plumbing (no, they have never seen a bathtub or toilet), use appliances, etc. What is the economic benefit to accepting this group?
You may not know it because you are in the computer industry, but many blue collar service jobs (fixing foreign goods) are being taken by immigrants, mostly mexican. These are jobs that young whites would take and some whites have gone through tech school for. The U.S. government truly has made it, through their immigration polices, tougher for young whites just starting out. But dispite what I see every day, I suppose you have a graph showing select figure to "disprove" me.
What are your thoughts regarding the environment? The Eastside, from Monroe to Pierce County and all points inbetween have seen huge housing developments built (typically houses in the high $200k-$600k range) and thus have more traffic, pollution, noise, etc. At one time you could drive for miles and never see a traffic light. Now forests are being cleared and roads being built (more tax dollars needed!) as urban sprawl in this state is among the worst in the country. Personally, I prefer open spaces to urban congestion. And most Americans (whites at least) do too. Also consider natural resources. Are we going to cut all the trees and build more shoppping centers for a quick profit? What about energy and water consumption? SDY 6401 posted a thread last week about Arizona officials who are considering recycling sewer water due to lack of drinking water in the Southwest. I suggest you use the search function and read the thread if you have not done so already.
Finally, just as SDY 6401 and Cold Warrior have pointed out, there are more important issues that you don't want to address. I believe that people are more important than profits (sorry for the cliche'). I would like to see my community reflect my values and do not want whites to be demoted to second class citizenship. (Given the power of the minority lobby some may argue we already are.) Do you wish for America to become a land where millions of different races come to compete for a dwindling, pathetic piece of existance? Or should we retain the racial and cultural traditions of this country and thrive economically and spiritually? A society that shares a common racial identity, language, and customs operates more smoothly than a society of competing factions. If you think anybody should be able to come to America to compete, who sets the ground rules? Or are there any rules? Consider the long term effects on culture and true prosparity, not just the immediate gains your bank account will see. Again this goes beyond the dollar and into morality.

The recent rash of line of duty deaths of officers from around the United States and around the world drive home the necessity for the law enforcement profession to adopt a zero tolerance policy towards line of duty deaths. For example, in just the past week, agencies represented by the IACP Division of State and Provincial Police tragically lost 4 officers. (Please see this blog post for more information about these recent, tragic incidents).
The IACP has, and always will, put prevention of officer deaths and injuries as its number one priority. But clearly, more is needed to be done.
As a leadership organization, the membership of the IACP is in the best position to implement and mandate the necessary policy and procedural changes that will help to protect our officers and change the culture of policing from one where death and injuries are considered "part of the job" to one where no deaths or injuries to law enforcement officers are acceptable.
That is why I am proud to announce the establishment of the IACP Center for Officer Safety and Wellness.
The IACP Center for Officer Safety and Wellness will work to protect law enforcement officers from the threats and dangers inherent in policing. It will foster a culture of safety and wellness within our profession that will allow law enforcement leaders to demonstrate that officer safety and wellness is our top priority.
The goal of the Center will be to enhance the law enforcement profession's ability to be well-equipped, well-trained, and physically and mentally prepared to confront violence and other threats and dangers. The four areas of focus will be:
- Prevention of Violence Against the Police
- Reducing Officer Injuries
- Officers' Wellness—including health, fitness, family support, and preventing law enforcement suicide—and
- Traffic Safety
The Center will not duplicate the work of others, but instead will compliment it. Other organizations do very fine work of honoring and supporting our profession, but much more attention needs to be given to looking at the prevention of violence and injury to law enforcement officers and that is what this Center will be designed to accomplish. The Center will also continue to closely examine issues related to traffic and highway safety, as well as officer wellness and the prevention of law enforcement officer suicide, that take such a high toll on both our officers..
As Attorney General Eric Holder noted when addressing officer safety last week during his speech at the 119th IACP Annual Conference "because of…critical efforts – including IACP's new Center for Officer Safety and Wellness, the Reducing Officer Injuries Project, and research that's being conducted on the Prevention of Violence Against the Police – we have good reason for optimism."
I am proud that the IACP is launching this new Center for Officer Safety and Wellness and I hope that all those involved in law enforcement will join us in this critical endeavor and assist our efforts. Only by working together as a law enforcement community can we put an end to senseless officer deaths. We owe it to our officers, we owe it to our communities, and we owe it to ourselves.

Welcome to Hawaii
It's easy to see why Hawaii has become synonymous with paradise. Just look at these sugary beaches, Technicolor coral reefs and volcanoes beckoning adventurous spirits.
Natural Beauty
Snapshots of these islands scattered in the cobalt blue Pacific Ocean are heavenly, without the need for any embellishment by tourist brochures. Sunrises and sunsets are so spectacular that they're cause for celebration all by themselves, such as atop Haleakalā volcano on Maui. As tropical getaways go, Hawaii couldn't be easier or more worth the trip, though be aware that visiting these Polynesian isles isn't always cheap. But whether you're dreaming of swimming in crystal waterfall pools or lazing on golden-sand beaches, you can find what you're looking for here.
Play Outside
Just as in days of old, life in Hawaii is lived outdoors. Whether it's surfing, swimming, fishing or picnicking with the ʻohana (extended family and friends), encounters with nature are infused with the traditional Hawaiian value of aloha ʻaina – love and respect for the land.Go hiking across ancient lava flows and down fluted pali (sea cliffs). Learn to surf, the ancient Hawaiian sport of 'wave sliding,' and then snorkel or dive with giant manta rays and sea turtles. Kayak to a deserted offshore island or hop aboard a whale-watching cruise. Back on land, ride horseback with paniolo, Hawaii's cowboys.
Island Style
Floating all by itself in the middle of the Pacific, Hawaii proudly maintains its own distinct identity apart from the US mainland. Spam, shave ice, surfing, ukulele and slack key guitar music, hula, pidgin, aloha shirts, 'rubbah slippah' (flip-flops) – these are just some of the touchstones of everyday life, island style. Pretty much everything here feels easygoing, low-key and casual, bursting with genuine aloha and fun. You'll be equally welcome whether you're a globe-trotting surf bum, a beaming couple of fresh-faced honeymooners or a big, multigenerational family with rambunctious kids.
Modern Multiculturalism
Hawaii is as proud of its multicultural heritage as it is of former US President Barack Obama, who was born in Honolulu on Oʻahu. On these Hawaiian Islands, the descendants of ancient Polynesians, European explorers, American missionaries and Asian plantation immigrants mix and mingle. What's remarkable about contemporary Hawaii is that harmonious multiculturalism is the rule, not the exception. Boisterous arts and cultural festivals keep diverse community traditions alive, from Hawaiian outrigger canoe races to Japanese taiko drumming. Come here to see what the future of the USA could be.

There is a constant drama playing out overhead, though most of us do not take the time to watch. Fortunately, a few, like Blaž Šter, do and make timelapse videos that allow us to enjoy hours of atmospheric drama in only a few minutes. This timelapse shows a cloudy and rainy mid-July day in Slovenia, where an unstable atmosphere leads to turbulent and dramatic clouds. In an unstable atmosphere, it's easier for vertical motion to take place between altitudes. For example, a parcel of warm air displaced upward will continue to rise because it will be lighter and more buoyant than the surrounding air. This is key to the strong convection that can generate thunderstorms.

Separate names with a comma.
Discussion in 'Local Chicken Laws & Ordinances' started by pdsavage, Jul 23, 2008.
Seen this thought i would put it here,not sure if its been posted allready.
I'm keeping a tab on all the goings-on here in Wake Forest on my website. Shame about what happened in Cary last week. I think it should have been formally introduced. Emily Cole is doing that here and has already started contacting commissioners on the subject. Fortunately for us, our commissioners seem to be a little more progressive than the Caryites.
Uh - yeah, that's me with the flat hair and tie-dye shirt! Wake Forest's story will be in the Raleigh News and Observer on Friday the 8th of August... I hope it is a positive story for us!
We're really doing a lot to try to educate the people in this town, and I will be giving a packet of information to the Board of Commissioners before the meeting on the 19th so they will be well informed before they make their decision. I spoke with the town clerk today about being on the agenda. She was a little wishy-washy, but I'm not too worried about her - she's not one of the Commissioners!
Ok everyone - here's an update on the Wake Forest Saga!!! The Wake Weekly has talked with the Mayor and Town Manager, and done another article today! Apparently the Mayor seems intrigued by the idea, and has made some comments which lead me to believe she's open to it. BUT - Since it is an ordianance change, they are required to have a public hearing on the subject, and I have no idea when that will be. The issue is on the agenda for the commissioners meeting on Tuesday, August 19, at 7pm, and I had been told I would have 5 minutes to do a presentation. I have been working on it all week... and practicing with my 'speaking voice'. I still haven't seen the agenda for the meeting - so I called Town Hall today to inquire about it. I spoke with the Town Clerk, who informed me that the issue is item 70? or maybe 17? Yikes! And I will not be speaking on the issue after all... the commissioners will discuss it though, and decide about having a public hearing. The Town Clerk did recomend that I be there (duh) in case they want to ask me any questions. I've already (last night - before learning all of this) sent out an email asking for local supporters to come to the meeting to show their support... I hope they won't be mad if I'm not speaking! ARGGGG!
I'm sending out a prayer that it passes. Hang in there!! I also read on the website that one of your neighbors sent an anonymous letter about manure concerns. What are you doing to try to change their minds? (hope you don't mind me asking) All but one neighbor are Supporting me. Seems the main concern is Avian flu, not so much anything else. I am getting a letter from the State Vet. about the Avian Flu to quell any fears.
The town clerk is highly suspicious about why I want to look through all 4( yes, 4) ordinance books. She keeps pumping me for details about why I want the ordinances on zoning ,livestock, and pets. I told her it was for a unit study on local government for home school. It will be....when I line up all five kids at the board meeting. It's going to be hard to say no to a two year old in pigtails.(priceless)
stacym, I have been doing a lot of education online and face-to-face. Unfortunately, or maybe fortunatly, many of the folks who are so negative don't want to talk about the issue. They are just set in their ways and don't wish to be educated. I'm guessing they're also too 'chicken' to come out to a public hearing on the issue - which is what looks like is going to be the case.
Have you looked online at municode.com for your ordinances? I think most of them are on there, and it would save you some funny looks at the town hall. Em

Fiji party calls for Bainimarama to debate economy
The newly elected leader of Fiji's National Federation Party, Biman Prasad, has challenged the leader of the Fiji regime, Rear Admiral Frank Bainimarama, to an economic debate before the election.
The newly elected leader of Fiji's National Federation Party, Biman Prasad, has challenged the leader of the Fiji regime, Rear Admiral Frank Bainimarama, to an economic debate before the election.
The former economics academic at the University of the South Pacific says the Bainimarama government's policies have put a significant burden on the poor in Fiji.
He told Sally Round the increasing cost of living and inflation has pushed a lot of people into poverty.
BIMAN PRASAD: People are struggling to make ends meet and one of the things we should have a proper debate on is what are the policies? And I believe that there are deliberate policies that this government has put in place which have put a significant burden on the poor people of this country and let me just give you this example: when this government came into power, they said very clearly that they were going to reduce the Value Added Tax from 12.5% to 10%. They did the opposite. They actually increased the tax to 15 percent. So one of the things the National Federation Party will do when it gets into government is to immediately reduce VAT from 15 to 10%. We also feel that the government's deliberate policies over the last several years have actually increased the gap between the rich and the poor. The average growth in the last seven to eight years has been slightly over 1%. I mean, there has been some recovery in the last two or three years but if you look at the average over the last seven to eight years the performance has been dismal and we are going to dissect some of those policies very, very carefully in our manifesto and we will be offering the people of this country policies which are consistent, which are fair, which are unbiased and which provide a level playing field for businesses, entrepreneurs, investors to initiate and increase investment.
SALLY ROUND: The party was founded by indo-Fijians, it's Fiji's oldest party - fifty years old - and its roots are in the cane belt. Now there is a perception that the NFP is an indo-Fijian party. Will you need to change that perception? And how big a challenge will that be?
BP: That has always been a challenge for political parties in this country. You know when we had only two parties, the Alliance Party and the National Federation Party, both were appealing to either indo-Fijians or indigenous Fijians. But let me say we've had some very, very, prominent indigenous Fijian leaders who were part of the National Federation Party for many years. Of course we understand the new environment, we understand the desires of young people who want to move away from the racial voting, racial political parties but it is going to be a huge challenge. The National Federation Party has made an excellent start with the new president (Tupou Draunidalo) with a view that this party was always a multi-racial party; we have stood for multi-racialism since it's inception.
SR: You have tried this softer conciliatory stance before in the 1999 election, going in with the nationalist indigenous SVT party of Sitiveni Rabuka. It didn't work then and you didn't get a single seat in the parliament. How is it going to work this time?
BP: If you look at the percentage of votes that we got in 1999, if we had (then) the current system of proportional representation as you have in New Zealand, we would have had seats in parliament in '99 in 2001 and in 2006. So one of the positive aspects of proportional representation that we are going to have this time is that it is almost certain the National Federation Party will be in parliament. Looking at the support we have had over the last several months I think we are in a very strong position to win a substantial number of seats in parliament this time.
SR: Fiji is to have a single national constituency in this election. How difficult will it be to field candidates that appeal to all people of Fiji from far flung islands - subsistence farmers - to urban professionals?
BP: It is going to be a significant challenge. Obviously they will be looking at how these candidates can be met within the whole country and where they will have their support and how different candidates can deal with local issues in particular around the areas where they are campaigning. But of course they will be appealing to every voter in the country and all of them will have their space and ability to articulate their different policies and philosophies.
SR: Finally, what do you think of the newly announced Electoral Decree?
BP: I think (regarding) the first part of the Electoral Decree, there is hardly any change with respect to what was there under the 1997 constitution. What is of concern, however, is the voting system itself. Even in very literate societies and communities, you always have invalid votes and people have difficulty in understanding the system. The problem with what is there in the Electoral Decree, if I may say so, could be a nightmare for our voters, for our political parties. And the time that we have to educate our voters is very little. So it is going to be a significant challenge and there are (other) elements in the Electoral Decree, for example how non government organizations and others can chip in and help educate the voters. They are basically restricted from doing (that). So those, in my view, those provisions are unnecessary and they should not be there.

text: Is the biggest joke ever. I followed all the instructions, and cmon, ive jailbreaked my phone before, i know the insides and outs of this phone, but it seriously caused me about 5 hours of my night. Basically, it just stayed on "working" and i tried multiple methods of doing the trick. This whole time, my phone was in recovery mode. So ah, i figured just do a restore. Well, my phone was in 1.1.1 firmware (i believe..) so i couldn't restore, because it gave me error 6 and 2003, every time. So i grabbed my other laptop, downgraded itunes on there (i had to use 7.5, and that gave me a whole other set of errors with quicktime), downloaded old firmware, installed firmware, upgraded itunes, upgraded firmware, and now im syncing back all my stuff. I summed this story up fast, but i was basically puzzled and thought i was screwed for the past 5 hours. Thanks for reading.

When you're out on the lake with family and friends, the last thing you think about is the danger of drinking and driving your boat. You have a pontoon that doesn't go very fast, and since the boat is a platform, you don't see much danger in having a few drinks.
Boating while intoxicated is a criminal offense
An appeal can help you have a bad decision overturned
One benefit of the United States criminal justice system is that you have a right to appeal if you are convicted of a crime. An appeal petitions a higher court to overturn a lower court's decision. For instance, if you believe that the trial was unfair, you can petition the higher court to change the ruling and overturn the lower court's decision.
These situations involving theft can be explained
Theft is simply taking another person's property without permission. If you're accused of this, there are a few things you can do to defend yourself. Fortunately, it's easy to show why your situation has been misunderstood or taken out of context with the right defense.
Aggravated sexual assault trial of Bill Cosby ends in mistrial
The judge has declared a mistrial in the case of megastar Bill Cosby, who was accused of drugging and raping an acquaintance in 2004. The jury deliberated for six days but was unable to reach a unanimous verdict as is required in felony criminal cases. The district attorney has vowed to retry the case.
Does Virginia treat drunk drivers harshly?
The state of Virginia is very hard on those who are caught drinking and driving. Driving while under the influence of alcohol puts you and others at risk of being involved in an accident, which is why it's illegal throughout the United States.
3 elements of a traffic stop to scrutinize after a drug arrest
Many drug-related charges stem from traffic stops. A traffic stop gives police the opportunity to speak with people, gauge their physical responses and take a look inside a vehicle while someone is caught off guard, which police can take advantage of.

Oh, he's a little runway (I am singing this in my Bon Jovi voice :P)
Clark's new thing lately is to run away.
He climbs over the fence, so fast I can hardly believe it, and takes off up and down the neighbors driveway, into their patio, garage, anywhere we can't find him.
It is maddening, and it is SO SCARY!
He has broken into both of my neighbor's houses (SO embarrassing), and he has even ventured down to the street. We live on a very busy street, right by a corner that cars like to take at 30 mph...it can be terrifying for me, not to mention a little toddler. (We live on a little hill, so there is a long drive-way down before he gets to the street.) This last week we finally got new child locks on the front and back door, that he thankfully hasn't managed to figure out yet, (yay, I can finally go to the bathroom now without taking him with me). Even when we play outside we have to keep BOTH eyes on him, ALL OF THE TIME, or he will take off. It is so fast, so so fast. It makes taking the boys outside to play a chore, because of-course Clark and Harry never want to go or do the same things. When he runs away we put him in time out, and we don't let him outside for the rest of the day (more of a punishment for me), and I try to explain to him how scary and wrong it is.
I think tonight when he ran away, he finally started to get . His Dad was home and playing with him outside, and he took off for a whole 10 heart stopping minutes (I honestly don't think he could find his way back into the yard) we couldn't find him anywhere. We were starting to get the neighbors involved, when we finally found him. He looked relieved and didn't even try to run farther away when I went to get his hand, he was so extra sweet and good. He was talking the best I have ever heard him talk, even being nice to Harry. I think even he got a little scared this time.
I hope he learned his lesson.

Turkey invaded Syria on Wednesday aiming primarily at the Kurdish YPG.
The YPG militia has been a key US ally against IS and controls swaths of northern Syria; Turkey considers YPG a terrorist organization.
As Turkish forces moved towards Jarablus on the banks of the Euphrates river their stated objective was to deny IS control of the border town; their unstated objective was to ensure Jarablus would not fall under the control of the Kurdish militia, paving the way for an autonomous Kurdish Syrian region.
YPG was moving to occupy Jarablus before the Turkish military intervened. Prior to the invasion, the Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) accused Turkey of assassinating the Kurdish forces commander in Jarablus, Abdulsettar Al-Cadiri. Kurdish forces also accuse Turkey of backing Jihadists in the region
