Seventh Emergency Transport at Margaret Sanger Center Supports Calls for Planned Parenthood Defunding
By Cheryl Sullenger
New York City, NY – A patient was taken out of the Margaret Sanger Center Planned Parenthood in Manhattan on a gurney on July 7, 2017, after an ambulance was called during an undisclosed medical emergency.
This represents the seventh medical incident involving emergency ambulance transport documented at the high-volume flagship Margaret Sanger Center Planned Parenthood in 2017 alone.
Operation Rescue maintains a non-exhaustive record of abortion-related medical emergencies, and believes that such emergencies are on the rise.
Overall, Operation Rescue has documented the following:
•	7 medical emergency transports from the Margaret Sanger Planned Parenthood since January 1, 2017.
•	10 medical emergency transports from the Margaret Sanger Planned Parenthood over the past 16 months.
•	23 medical emergency transports from Planned Parenthood abortion facilities nationwide since January 1, 2017.
"We must make our Senators aware that the defunding of Planned Parenthood is a non-negotiable item in the new health care bill. It is unconscionable that our hard-earned tax money continues to prop up an organization that heavily profits from the maiming of women and the taking of innocent lives through abortion," said Troy Newman, President of Operation Rescue.
Please contact your Senator now!
Momma Beth
It is far passed time to DEFUND PP!
yumadlh
Revoke their medical licenses. Check their certificates. DEFUND!
jjmcl431
this is what happens when people use abortion as a standard form of birth control instead of just life saving.
Abortion isn't used for saving the mother's life-very, very, very rare-pretty much non-existent -there is always a c-section.
Patty Harden
Abortion practically never "saves" a life it always ends a life.
Do more than revoke medical licenses, Remove all supporters of Planned Parenthood from the various government offices in both federal and states,, starting with the federal and state Senate; House and State Assembly members. I would bet they are being provided for, to keep allowing this to occur! Recognizing that there is a major effort to reduce the world population to just around One Billion people worldwide, Those pushing this and promoting mass extermination as is the case with Planned Parenthood and the various groups who are willing to kill to promote their agendas. It's time Americans (REAL AMERICANS) take a stand to stop this. We are not GOD!! It's time we acted on stopping this by any legal means availble to us to include all legislators and all levels of government being replaced.
The only time I see it being a necessity, is if the woman has been raped and she does not want that child! The other is if a woman's life is in danger! Those are the only two valid reasons I would consider.such an act!
As for those who use baby parts for non- medical and commercial perposes, should be fed any and all parts of those murdered for profit, down each person's throat. Bones included….
J Harold Mohler
If any other medical procedure had a 50% death rate it would be immediately terminated!!!!
J. Harold Mohler MD
I agree this needs to be defunded but I live in NYC and Schumer and Gillibrand are our disgraceful Democratic senators. I don't believe that writing to them makes any difference. They have proven time and again to be all about party and not about the people they serve. The best way to put a stop to this is to vote out these two canker sores in New York City and get some conservatives in office.

Biographical Sketch of Margaret Stearns Olmsted Ogden
written by Lisa Hendrickson
Biographical Sketch of Margaret Stearns Olmsted Ogden, written by Lisa Hendrickson. Included in Biographical Database of NAWSA Suffragists, 1890-1920, .
Biography of Margaret Stearns Olmsted Ogden, 1874-1952
By Lisa Hendrickson, independent historian
Margaret "Madge" Stearns Olmsted was born on April 15, 1874 to Mary Athalia Stearns and William Nisbet Olmsted. She grew up in Elizabeth, N.J. and was one of 3 children. Margaret was from a family of railroad superintendants and merchants in the China Trade with deep New England and Pennsylvania roots. She attended the Vail Deane School for girls, but did not attend college afterward. Her brother Edward Olmsted was a military hero and married Clementine Ladley Davidson (1878-1953) who was a fellow suffragist (she has her own biography). Her sister Katherine Nisbet Olmsted Price (1877-1969) was also active in the suffrage movement. Esther Gracie Ogden, Margaret's sister-in-law, was the most prominent suffragist of the family (I am currently writing her biography).
On November 16, 1904 Margaret married Archibald Gracie Ogden in a lavish ceremony held in New York City. Mr. Ogden was a descendant from one of the original founders of Elizabeth in the 1660s. Teddy Roosevelt, a cousin by marriage, sent a large bouquet of roses from the White House conservancy. Archibald Gracie was a cashier at Brown Brother's Investment Bank and Margaret was a stay at home mother and socialite. They had five children: Athalia Ogden Barker, Margaret Ogden, Archibald Gracie Ogden Jr., Esther Gracie Ogden Henneman, and Dayton Ogden.
Margaret was involved in many charitable organizations including: fundraising for the American Red Cross during the 1st World War and the Elizabeth Town and Country Club. In addition, she was on the Board of the Vail Deane School for girls. She loved theater and costumes and had a quick wit according to family members. As the family genealogist, she kept a large collection of family letters, books, and pictures. Among the family heirlooms are a collection of suffragist newspaper clippings and memorabilia (primarily centered on her daughter Esther Gracie). She also wrote a genealogical memoir for her descendants near the end of her life. While there is not much specifically written on her actual involvement in the suffrage movement, she was supportive financially and emotionally to family members who were directly involved.
Not everyone in the Olmsted family was for the suffragist cause. Uncle Johnny Owen Stearns, a confirmed bachelor was anti-suffrage. At Christmas dinner in 1913, "Madge" composed a poem to give to Johnny as a gift. The verse reads, "To Uncle Johnny- "Votes for Women" is the cry which often now we hear/ And yet the Antis tell us that the home is woman's sphere/ No wonder that poor Johnny's head is often in a whirl/ How can he share the sentiments of each and every girl?/ But when it comes to fooling the public and the fair/ Not Cook nor P.T. Barnum can with Our John compare./ He doesn't like society, Oh no, indeed not he/ Any yet "among those present" his name we often see./ But when it comes to suffrage a paradox we view/ Although he is an Uncle, he is an Anti too!/ Now if he is no suffragist there need not be much strife/ for John you know has given votes to Women all his life."
Her husband Archibald died in 1931 and Margaret followed him on June 1, 1952. She is buried at Evergreen Cemetery in Hillside, NJ.

Is it still possible to do phone phreaking? Yes.
23Oct 2015 27 Oct 2015
In the 1960s and 70s, technically savvy enthusiasts sought to game telecommunications systems to make free calls, keeping telecom engineers on their toes.
That practice, known as phreaking, involved such luminaries as Steve Jobs, Steve Wozniak and John Draper, known as Cap'n Crunch, who used a whistle from a cereal box to meddle with AT&T's long-distance trunk lines.
These days, mobile operators have fully embraced the Internet and are increasingly moving voice calls over fast, packet-switched networks, known as Voice over LTE (Long Term Evolution). The advantage is higher-quality voice calls for subscribers and lower costs for operators.
But South Korean researchers say they've found several weaknesses in VoLTE networks in the U.S. and South Korea.
Their findings, released in a research paper, conclude that it would be possible to spoof phone calls, conduct denial-of-service attacks and overbill customers. They also found it would be possible for a malicious Android app to make secret phone calls in the background due to a flaw in the mobile OS.
The fault also lies in part with operators, which haven't full vetted their infrastructure for security issues. Also, LTE standards have been implemented in different ways by operators, opening up a variety security holes.
"Basically, there are mistakes and things they have overlooked," said Yongdae Kim, a professor with the Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology's (KAIST) electrical engineering department, in a phone interview Tuesday.
T-Mobile, Verizon and AT&T were notified of the issues in May, according to anadvisory updated on Monday from Carnegie Mellon University's CERT. None of the companies had an immediate comment.
CERT's alert said each operator's problems are different and will require them to apply their own updates, which may take time.
Google said it is working on a software patch for Android which will be released next month. Apple's mobile operating system, iOS, is not affected, according to CERT.
Android's problem is with its permissions. On 3G networks, there are separate network domains for data packets going over the Internet and phone calls, which go through circuits.
But with LTE, voice and data go over Internet. Android's permission that governs phone calls doesn't matter since calls are no longer going through a circuit-switched network, Kim said.
That opens up an interesting avenue for attack. For example, if a victim can be tricked into downloading a malicious Android application, it could, for example, initiate a video call over the data channel.
The Korean team also found it was possible for an attacker to block any phone call made by a victim or cut-off an ongoing call.
In this example, a malicious app on a victim's Android phone secretly makes a call in the background, blocking the victim from making a call. Screenshot/KAIST
Android won't recognize that a data call is being made and show nothing on a smartphone's screen. A video call could eat up the victim's data allowance and potentially garner them a huge bill.

The Tulia Hornets enter Friday night's season finale at Canadian secure in the knowledge that they have qualified for the postseason playoffs. They even know who, when and where they will play in their bi-district game.
However, Tulia can heap a load of gravy onto their season if they can knock off Canadian, which is ranked No. 5 in the state.
Tulia coach Duane Toliver sees the regular-season finale as an opportunity for his team to score a big victory – and send a message.
The Hornets have not backed down from anybody this year, even playing some of the toughest teams in the state. Last week they lost a hard-fought 40-33 decision to Spearman.
Toliver said Spearman intercepted a Tulia pass and went down the field to score the go-ahead touchdown.
Tulia answered with a drive of their own and drove the ball to Spearman's 5-yard line. On the final play of the game as time ran out, the Hornets experienced a breakdown on an offensive play and couldn't find an open receiver in the end zone as Spearman held on for the victory.
Toliver said he wants to see how his team rebounds from the tough loss.
The coach said he's had an inkling this week of what the answer to that question will be, based on how his team has worked in practice.
It is said that a team often takes on the personality of its head coach. The Hornets play an aggressive, attacking style on both offense and defense. They can make big plays on offense by getting their athletes out in space, or they can play a physical smash-mouth style of football. On defense they swarm to the football.
Last week, Toliver said, when Tulia was trying for a touchdown at the end of the game, he had made up his mind about the extra point. Instead of kicking to tie the game, he said he planned to go for two points and the win. That's the aggressive attitude he has instilled in his team. This week's game against Canadian should be no different.
"We're going to go up and we're going to take on the No. 5 team in the state. What do we have to lose?" Toliver said.
Looking ahead, Tulia will take on Colorado City in a Class 3A bi-district game at 7:30 p.m. Thursday at Lubbock Cooper.

Q: Connect mongodb from Python in authorized mode I've created a user for my database in mongodb. I've tested with mongo shell to make sure that the user has proper privileges to access the database.
Now I want to use my Python program to access the database, and I use PyMongo. If I run mongod in unauthorized mode (without option --auth), the Python client works fine. However, when I use --auth option, the Python client doesn't work any more. In fact, it reports unauthorized error, which is easy to understand because I didn't change anything in the code. Here is the code to connect my test database:
from pymongo import MongoClient
client = MongoClient()
db = client.test
cursor = db.restaurants.find()
for document in cursor:
    print(document)

My question is how can I change the Python code to use username/password created previously? I've looked at the client documentation but there is not information for it.

A: client = MongoClient("mongodb://username:password@server/dbname")

This is the normal format for telling the client where and how to connect. The way you are using (with no parameters at all) defaults to a local mongo install, on the default port, with no authentication.

A: Besides Danielle's answer you can also use authenticate method for that. Your code would look like this:
from pymongo
import MongoClient
client = MongoClient()
db = client.test
db.authenticate('user', 'password', mechanism=<either 'SCRAM-SHA-1' or 'MONGODB-CR', being 'MONGODB-CR' the default authentication mechanism Before MongoDB 3.0>)
cursor = db.restaurants.find()
for document in cursor:
    print(document)

Q: How does ops update zookeeper (in a shared configuration scenario)? So far I haven't seen a good way of updating zookeeper. I am thinking of writing a web browser for zookeeper. Even then, the hierarchical key-value might not be intuitive. Another idea is for ops to update a MySQL table and then run a script to update Zookeeper which in turn notifies all the apps. Thoughts? What are the best practices?

A: There is an eclipse plugin that lets you do read/write operations. Coming in 3.4 is a Hue based web frontend to zookeeper. There is of course the zkCli command line tool that comes with the zk distribution.

*

*http://www.massedynamic.org/mediawiki/index.php?title=Eclipse_Plug-in_for_ZooKeeper

*http://wiki.apache.org/hadoop/ZooKeeper/GSoCMonitoringAndWebInterface
The eclipse plugin is a little slow, but works quite well. The web app is faster, but has a dependency on the REST interface in 3.4
update: Exhibitor from Netflix also provides a reasonable GUI along with other pretty cool capabilities of managing a zookeeper ensemble.

A: There are couple of GUIs available that allow to create/edit/delete the nodes. I have personally tried
node-zk-browser and zk-web and would recommend zk-web


Vesconite Hilube requires no lubrication, does not swell, and can operate in dirty conditions, making it a perfect bearing for any pumps operated in abrasive conditions.
If you're still using OEM repair kits for bearings, let Vesconite and Gallagher design an alternate solution. Vesconite's no lubrication, no swell bearings offer a maintenance-free, low cost solution.
Vesconite Hilube replaced an OEM bearing in a condensate pump assembly and it resulted in four years of maintenance-free operation... in a pump that formerly required SEVEN annual maintenance rebuilds.
Vesconite has been used for decades in a wide range of specialized pump bushing applications. The material thrives in water and exhibits excellent dimensional stability, with zero delamination. The result is low downtime and associated hassle factor. Its friction coefficient range of 0.1 – 0.2 allows for dry starting – an issue commonly associated with high wear rates in traditional bushing materials. Corrosion of the bushing is entirely eliminated with Vesconite, Vesconite Hilube is recommended for most pump applications.
Vesconite does not swell or distort in water.
Vesconite is resistant to oils and fuels.
Vesconite bushings are easy to fit and remove.
Lineshaft bushings in vertical turbine pumps.
Support bushings and wear rings in pumps.
Stuffing box bushings in vertical turbine pumps.
Impeller support bushings in sump pumps.
In the case of pump impeller and case wear rings, tight clearances are required. Swelling and distortion can be an issue with traditional bushing materials. This is not the case with Vesconite due to its virtually zero water absorption rate and dimensional stability.
Unlike bronze or rubber bushings, fresh and saltwater serves as an effective lubricant for Vesconite. This makes it an ideal material for pump bowl bushings and stuffing box bushings.


As much as the intent of this blog is to find hope in a situation that at times is going to feel hopeless, I believe I would be neglecting the blog in not telling you about my bad days. Rough days are a part of any chronic illness. Chronic fatigue combined with thyroid disease is incredibly frustrating because no matter how motivated I feel sitting or lying down, when I get up, that can be too much. On a bad day, just getting out of bed and getting a cup of tea feels like I've achieved more than I thought I could when I stood up.
Imagine from the minute you get up you feel dizzy and tired, that's been my life for quite some time. All the time, I was dizzy. And when I'm not dizzy, and it does seem to be lifting thankfully, I've had no exercise tolerance, on bad days, brushing my hair is like a marathon, I have to work my way up to it. Before I got sick with all these things, when I was younger, I used to exercise for fun two hours a day. Lately, I rely on my second hand car to get around. I am trying to exercise as much as possible, but getting out of the house takes so much strength and courage on a bad day.
Today, I'd had too many bad days, and I realised that I was biochemically depressed, not just feeling depressed because I could not do what I wanted. I rang the doctor and we have upped my T3 which has already given me some relief. I am left wondering how many people suicide due to biochemical hormonal balance that doctors are not sufficiently trained to recognise, without the therapy I had I would find this even harder. I do feel totally overwhelmed and am fighting hard.
I also purchased rescue remedy and did a bit of a clean up of my surrounds to help me feel as well as possible. I also bought and ate chocolate. The hormone therapy and rescue remedy were the most affective, the chocolate was the most pleasurable. I guess my next blog will be how Hobart Chic loses weight in 365 days!!
Once I get some decent energy back I look forward to feeling better and exercising. I am also going to the doctor tomorrow and planning to explore some homeopathic remedies having read about studies and personal stories that show hope in that therapy.

Alternative facts, fake news and how George Orwell saw Trump's rise coming
SEVENTY years after its publication, Nineteen Eighty-Four speaks as loudly as ever in a terrible indictment of modern-day politics, says the author of a new book on the classic dystopian novel

In December 1948, a man sits at a typewriter, in bed, on a remote Scottish island, fighting to complete the book that means more to him than any other. He is terribly ill. The book will be finished and, a year or so later, so will the man. In January 2017, another man stands before a crowd, which is not as large as he would like, in Washington, DC, taking the oath of office as the 45th President of the United States of America.
Big Brother is watching: China's AI CCTV can recognise 'anyone'
In 2019 Big Brother really is watching you, says DOMINIC MIDGLEY
Donald Trump's press secretary Sean Spicer later claims it was the "largest audience to ever witness an inauguration - period". Asked to justify such a preposterous lie, the president's adviser Kellyanne Conway describes the statement as "alternative facts".
Over the next four days, sales of the dead man's book will rocket by almost 10,000 percent in America, making it a number one bestseller again 68 years after its first publication.
That book is George Orwell's Nineteen Eighty-Four, and the fact that it speaks to us so loudly and clearly in 2019 is a terrible indictment.
When it was published in the United Kingdom on June 8, 1949 - in the middle of a century defined by democracy's struggle to overcome totalitarian regimes - one critic wondered how it could possibly exert the same power over generations to come.
Thirty-five years later, when the present caught up with Orwell's future and the real 1984 was not the nightmare he described, it was again predicted that the novel's popularity would wane.
Another 35 years have elapsed since then, yet Nineteen Eighty-Four remains the book we turn to when truth is mutilated, language is distorted and power is abused.
It has not just sold tens of millions of copies, it has infiltrated the consciousness of countless people, including those who have never read it. Orwell's phrases and concepts have become fixtures of our language: Newspeak, Big Brother, the Thought Police, Room 101, the Two Minutes Hate, doublethink, unperson, 2 + 2 = 5, and the Ministry of Truth The very word Orwellian has turned the author's own name into a synonym for everything he hated and feared.
Trump's adviser Kellyanne Conway (Image: Alex Wong/Getty Images)
No work of literary fiction from the past century approaches its cultural ubiquity while retaining its weight.
I first encountered Nineteen Eighty-Four as a teenager in suburban south London. As Orwell said, the books you read when you're young stay with you for ever.
I found it shocking and compelling, but this was circa 1990, when communism and apartheid were on the way out, optimism reigned, and the world didn't feel particularly Orwellian.
Even after the 9/11 terror attacks on the United States, the book's relevance was fragmentary. Democracy was on the rise and the internet was still largely considered a force for good.
Yet during Trump's campaign against Hillary Clinton, it was hard to watch the candidate whipping supporters into a cry of "Lock her up!" without being reminded of the Two Minutes Hate.
It is truly Orwellian that the phrase "fake news" has been turned on its head by Trump and his ilk to describe real news that is not to their liking, while flagrant lies become "alternative facts".
There is no doubt that this year's 70th anniversary of Nineteen Eighty-Four falls at a dark time for liberal democracy.
Nineteen Eighty-Four was the first fully realised dystopian novel to be written in the knowledge that dystopia was real.
We must not allow this lawlessness to continue, says LEO McKINSTRY
How to tackle the savage violence blighting Britain says LEO MCKINSTRY
In Germany and the Soviet bloc, men had built it and forced other men and women to live and die within its iron walls.
Those regimes may be gone, but Orwell's book continues to define our nightmares, even as they shift and change.
At some point he sketched out the blueprint for Nineteen Eighty-Four, then called The Last Man In Europe. Orwell's notebook is undated, and its contents clearly copied from one or more rough drafts, but scholars tend to place the outline towards the end of 1943 or the very start of 1944.
London in late 1944 was a glum, crotchety, threadbare city, battered by Hitler's desperate final assault. The new V-2 ballistic missiles - much like the "rocket bombs" that pummel Airstrip One - were enough to make Londoners nostalgic for the evil whine of the doodlebugs. At least those provided some warning.
Some key components of the novel don't appear in the outline, but the basic material is there, including Newspeak and doublethink, and the effect he planned to create: "The nightmare feeling caused by the disappearance of objective truth."
Nineteen Eighty-Four, Orwell's last novel before his death aged just 46 as a result of tuberculosis, is usually described as a dystopia. It is also, to varying degrees, a satire, a prophecy, a warning, a work of science fiction, a spy thriller, a psychological horror, a gothic nightmare and a love story.
But why 1984? There's a popular theory the title was simply a satirical inversion of 1948 - the year it was finished - but there is no evidence for this. First he wrote 1980, then 1982, and only later 1984.The truth is the most fateful date in literature was a late amendment.

Orwell had been ill throughout 1947 and losing weight but "like a fool" decided to press on with his novel, writing in intense bursts at his home Barnhill on the Isle of Jura, instead of seeing a doctor who, he suspected, would force him to down tools.
The rough-and-ready four-bedroom farmhouse had no telephone or postal service. Supplies of water and fuel were unreliable.
Shortly before Christmas, he succumbed to medical advice, travelling to hospital in Glasgow to seek treatment.
He would not be able to return to his home or his novel for another seven months.
And the novel was to damage his health even further. Having finished the final draft of Nineteen Eighty-Four in bed on November 7, 1948, he asked his publisher to find someone to retype the manuscript.
It was such a mess of scribbles that he thought nobody could make sense of it unless he was there with them. But no typist willing to travel to Jura could be found in a hurry. So he typed it himself at the punishing rate of around 4,000 words a day, seven days a week, propped up in bed for as long as he could bear in between bouts of fever and bloody coughing fits.
In the first week of December, he typed the final words, came downstairs, shared the last bottle of wine in the house, then went back to bed, demolished by his efforts.

On January 2, 1949, Orwell left Barnhill for the last time to make the long journey to the Cotswold Sanatorium in Cranham, Gloucestershire, for treatment.
Orwell didn't say much about Nineteen Eighty-Four, but what he did say, very firmly, was that it was not a prophecy.
As he spelled out in 1949: "I do not believe that the kind of society which I described necessarily will arrive, but I believe... that something resembling it could arrive."
In some ways, he was both too pessimistic and not pessimistic enough.
On the one hand, the West did not succumb to totalitarianism; consumerism, not endless war, became the engine of the global economy. But he did not appreciate the tenacity of racism and religious extremism. Nor did he foresee that the common man and woman would embrace doublethink and, without the need for terror or torture, would choose to believe that two plus two was whatever they wanted it to be.
From his bed in Cranham sanatorium during the final months of his life, he explained the fundamental reason why he wrote it: not to bind our wills but to strengthen them.
"The moral to be drawn from this dangerous nightmare situation is a simple one. Don't let it happen. It depends on you."
In other words: the future might be dreadful unless you do something about it.

I'm Jon, a girl in disguise?: Doubts on Myself Again..
The doubt is back, whether I can be a good eng|nr or not. Every time I ran into a corner and get stuck, I begin to doubt myself. And I feel so stupid.
I enjoyed CNY this year, though I always say, CNY is the same as previous years, the festive mood, spick and span house and the long holi let me take my mind off from work. I care less about the red packts received, as I can make my own money, unlike when i was young student, I would take note who gave how much etc.
I heard, a distant relative, she should be about 50-60s. She and her husband married way before my parents had. So, its v long marriage. Her eldest daughter is even older than my bro. So I can assume that they have been married for about 30 years. Its only in the recent years, the husband started to drink beer and find women outside. He wanted to divorce his wife. It is said that the wife was so upset during CNY house visiting that she broke down when narrating her husband's misdeeds. How sad. The whole of 30 years of marriage is such a nightmare, regardless how they may have ever been head over heels (maybe) before? It must have felt like a 'end of a world' to her? 30 years of marriage, to be ended in like this? No meaning at all. The saddest thing is, she only realised he is a bad man only so long after.
日久见人心, but isn't 30 years long enough?


I'm glad other people are noticing this. In dealing with Obama supporters last year (one in particular) it was always a game of "well, Republicans did X so the Democrats are OK in doing Y".
This has been one of the most upsetting arguments not only on the political level but also with a person in my private life recently. Glad I am not alone!
Also known as the "I know you are, but what am I?" argument from grade school.
"Unbelievably, the White House is resorting to the kindergarten playground argument 'well, you started it.'"
Unbelievable? More like, par for the course on both sides of the aisle.
To me, it seems more of a race to the bottom. Each bad policy justifies the next. Don't we hope for change towards better policies? Are we just stuck in mediocrity forever then?
Never respond to a shift of the debate. It is part of the Alinski method and avoids the debate.
I have found it useful to sit on the point until the terms are defined. If you allow your opponent to define the terms, he wins. If you define them your opponent may learn something.
On the Saturday RecessRally a few weeks back, a group of us were standing along a busy street and we were engaged by a youngish gentlemen who wanted to challenge us on Obamacare being "Socialist". He immediately derailed to other programs (medicare, Social Security...) that are ostenibly socialist and asked if we wanted to kill those existing programs.
1) It is not on the point. The discussion is ObamaCare, not the nose of the camel already in the tent.
2) It can be argued that these are not socialist, because we have taxes specifically to "our accounts."
3) If #2 is denied then we can open a front against these sacrosanct, to the left, "programs" (revenue sources for the general fund).
He didn't know what to make of the Phd researcher for a small pharma company who asked simply: "Who is going to pay the outrageous dollars to develop the new drugs needed?" He pointed out that venture money for firms like his was drying up rapidly as VC folks run away from developing new drugs because of a legitimate fear that ObamaCare will kill their investments.
Well, I don't agree with the proposition "it must be all right because you did it first."
If I say "Obama shouldn't appoint czars, czars are bad", then arguably the response "Bush and Clinton and Reagan did it too" is irrelevant.
If I say "Obama is evil and totalitarian because he appoints czars", or "Obama's administration is so extreme that it is appointing czars", or "Obama has so transformed American democracy that he is using czars," then I think that the observation "dude, we've been using czars for years. Where were you?" is entirely apt. At least some of the czar-shouting strikes me as falling into the latter categories.
Also, I would be remiss if I did not admit that tu quoque can be extremely entertaining.
I mean, if you don't find it completely hilarious that Senator David Vitter is shouting about ACORN encouraging prostitutes, you have to be made of stone.
I think the idea is that our only control is voting for the other guy. If that's the case and the other guy is just as bad, there isn't any point to "throwing the bums out."
I am afraid "Tu quoque" is too hard to pronounce. Why don't we just continue to use the word "politician".
A related but distinct annoyance is when pundits accuse their adversaries of hypocrisy regarding their position on issue A versus their prior position on issue B. Nevermind that the pundit's side was on against the adversary on both issues, which by definition, makes pundit's side equally hypocritical.
I work for a company which all of you would immediately recognize. For this conversation, it shall remain nameless. The CEO of said company has financially backed liberal politicians --- he was a hippie in his youth. I attended a company meeting on this last election day. The CEO's presidential choice was a given. As the meeting ended, the CEO closed with "please, go vote. I don't care who you vote for (ha!), but vote." Then he looked down and grinned, and said "for God's sake, whoever you vote for has GOT to be better than what we've had for the past 8 years." The implication was obvious to all. Since the employees are also of a liberal bent, they wildly hooted and applauded. It's safe to say the the CEO got his wish in election 2008.
Now given THIS attitude --- that whoever we get in the election MUST be better than what we have today --- Warren's point is quite appropriate. Wasn't Obama supposed to be BETTER than W? Was not Obama going to overturn W's agregious violations of power?
Instead, we end up with "so what ... W did it, too." More of the same, kids.
I hope my CEO is happy with his choice: W, without the Texas twang.
More to the point, most of the 'czar' positions in the bush administrations weren't just appointments at the whim of the White House. They were positions that had to pass through Senate scrutiny. Challenging the question on the basis of 'Bush did it' only serves to make the question regarding obscure individuals being given both considerable power and taxpayer funds to control all the more important.
So let them try to play their game. It's a trap for the unwitting.


If you've read about me, one of my interests is productivity. I am the epitome of "Time is Gold" philosophy. Simply put, I don't like wasting my time on things that won't contribute to my growth.
Google Calendar (and Google apps in general)In my digital marketing agency, we host our emails in Google Apps. It gives you 100G of storage, you can share documents (spreadsheet, docs, etc.) and collaborate online. Their email engine has a very powerful spam filter. I love using Google Calendar since it can sync to my phone and I can send invites to non-Google app users. Another good thing about using GApps is that its integrated with Chrome and has a vast range of extensions you can use to manage your email. A good example is Boomerang which I love to use. It makes follow-ups automatic, a powerful tool especially if you're into marketing and sales.
WunderlistI use Wunderlist every day to identify my top 3 tasks for the day, list places I find interesting (and check them off once I visit them, sort of like a bucket list for travel), list interesting things that I'm interested in but don't need at the moment (I generally don't buy things I don't need), create a list for each person under me and list down tasks that I have delegated to them just so I could monitor if they're done with it.
Jaybird Blue Buds Wireless EarphonesAs mentioned above, I love listening to podcasts. At home, I listen through a braven bluetooth speaker. I've been using my braven for over 4 years now and its still working. If I'm walking my dog, I use the jaybird wireless earphones since it is sweat resistant and I don't like wires hanging around while I walk with my dog. I also use this to kill time if I'm somewhere waiting for a meeting to start.
WazeManila has one of the worst traffic in the world. I use Waze to outsmart traffic – as their tagline goes. And it really does outsmart traffic 90% of the time. While in traffic, I listen to podcasts to make that time more valuable.
KindleIf you haven't read yet, I am such a book worm. I read 2-3 books monthly. I also travel a lot so owning a Kindle is a requirement. I also like highlighting and taking notes from the book I read and Kindle makes it easy for me to do it. After reading, I usually transfer all my highlights to Evernote. I use the basic touch screen kindle on a cover with light. The middle button stopped working a few weeks ago so I am looking to buy the new kindle paper white which has the built-in light.
HeadspaceSimple, straightforward meditation app. You can choose from 10, 15 or 20 minutes of meditation (I do 20minutes everyday). You can also select what you want to focus on – I switch between focus and creativity. Checkout the app here.
SpotifyMusic is good for the mind. I use Spotify to listen to instrumental and classical music while at work and 70s, 80s, jazz music while relaxing at home. 70s and 80s music feels nostalgic and somehow makes me happy.
Unroll.meI use unroll.me to control newsletter subscriptions that are coming in to my inbox. Basically, what it does is it unsubscribes you for senders that you don't want to receive email from anymore, and sends you a daily summary of emails that you tagged to be sent as a digest, so they don't appear in your inbox individually.
For a list of productivity books I recommend, you can checkout my favorite books list – these are books that have made a significant impact in my life, I suggest you read each one of them if you're an entrepreneur and if you want to live happy.


After a presidential race between three candidates, Josh Ruth won the Student Government Association presidential vote on a slate with Executive Vice President candidate Parker Laboiteaux.
Ruth and Laboiteaux accumulated 278 votes during SGA elections April 12 and 13 to win. Their term will take affect July 1 and last through next April.
Ruth said he wants SGA "to become a powerful lobbying tool in Frankfort.
Over 750 students cast votes during the election, and although the number represents less than six percent of Northern Kentucky University's student population, the number surpasses the less than three percent who voted in fall, 2005.
"We do try to bring at least 10 percent of undergraduate students to come out and vote," Kelso said about the voter turnout.
Running mates Branden Kiely and Christian Grau came in a close second with 251 votes.
The Paul Myers and Josh Kinney slate received 170 votes.

Loud mouth Bailey goes quiet on LNP's electricity savings
14 Dec 2016 12:09 PMMichael Hart
Queensland the only mainland state to see electricity prices decrease because of the LNP
LNP's fair changes to the Solar Bonus Scheme will save all Queenslanders nearly $800 million
Prices to decrease by 1.5% due to chances the LNP made when in government – an initiative Labor opposed
Shadow Energy Minister Michael Hart says the LNP's fair changes to solar bonus scheme when in government will save Queensland families nearly $800 million over the next two years.
Mr Hart said south-east Queensland households would see electricity prices drop by 1.5% because of changes the LNP made when in government.
"The independent report from the Australian Energy Market Commission* clearly shows the LNP's changes in 2012 will result in electricity prices dropping," Mr Hart said.
"Under the LNP's fair changes, participants in the Solar Bonus Scheme are no longer eligible for the 44 cent per kWh payment if they sell or lease their house, or if they upgrade their solar inverter to a larger capacity.
"Labor opposed these changes at the time and wanted to slug Queensland families more for its extreme green dream."
"Labor's Solar Bonus Scheme will still cost Queenslanders more than $4 billion and will add hundreds of dollars to the electricity bills of Queensland families."
Mr Hart said the LNP got the balance right and is responsible for the price reductions forecast by the Independent Australian Energy Market Commission.
"Minister Bailey and Labor continue to mislead Queenslanders about the costs of their extreme renewable energy polices," he said.
"Labor has learnt nothing from its costly Solar Bonus Scheme and continues to treat Queenslanders like cash cows."
*The Independent Australian Energy Market Commission Electricity Price Trend Report released today says:
"Solar Bonus Scheme costs are expected to decrease by 13 per cent in 2016/17. They are expected to decrease by 57 per cent in 2017/18, and 4.0 per cent in 2018/19, which is equivalent to an average annual decrease of 35 per cent over the two years"

Induction and growth of 'microspore-derived' embryos of Brassica napus ssp. oleifera
Dunwell, J. M., Cornish, M., De Courcel, A. G. L. and Middlefell-Williams, J. E. (1983) Induction and growth of 'microspore-derived' embryos of Brassica napus ssp. oleifera. Journal of Experimental Botany, 34 (12). pp. 1768-1778. ISSN 0022-0957
To link to this item DOI: 10.1093/jxb/34.12.1768
Three cultivars of spring rape (Brassica napus ssp. oleifera), Tower, Willi and Duplo, were used for a study of induction and growth of 'microspore-derived' embryos, Buds, 2.0 mm in length, containing uninucleate microspores were harvested and stored for 14 d at 4 °C in darkness. Anthers were then removed and cultured on a liquid medium based upon that of Murashige and Skoog and containing 8% sucrose, 0.5 mg l-1 naphthylacetic acid and 0-05 mg l-1 benzylaminopurine. Cultures were pre-incubated at 35 °C for 0-3 d and then incubated at 30 °C. After a total of 42 d incubation, cultures were scored for the presence of macroscopic embryos (1-2 mm in length) and for the presence of anthers containing abortive embryoids which had not developed further. The cultivars differed greatly in terms both of the frequency of anthers showing induced embryoids and of the final yield of embryos. Tower showed the highest frequency of induction (maximum 38% of cultured anthers with induced embryoids) whereas the highest yield (equivalent to 1 • 1 embryo per cultured anther) was obtained from anthers of the cv. Duplo after a 3 d treatment at 35 °C. Yields from the other cultivars were much lower and were relatively unaffected by the 35 °C treatment.

With her home torn by the loss of their spiritual leader, Lissandra Olympus, the heir apparent, seeks the help of the one man who might save them– renegade warrior Murdoch LeDroit. But Murdoch has turned his back on those who feared his extraordinary psychic powers and rejected him. Besides, reigniting the combustible passion between him and Lissandra would only expose her to the dangerous forces that shadow him.
But if they want to protect Aelynn from destruction and chaos, they must work together to retrieve the magical key to its survival–the Chalice of Plenty. Only then can Murdoch ever hope to become the ruler Aelynn needs–and only then if Lissandra agrees to become his lover.

Q: MSACCESS Add records to table from form txt and cbo boxes I'm trying to speed up the process of adding identical stock items to a sales table.  The data is identical for each record to be added.  I have an unbound form with seven fields.  BookID, Purchase Date (date), Item size (text), description (text), Seller Name (text), Condition (text), and Price Paid (Currency).  There is an 8th field that has a number representing the number of records to be added, i.e. 50, meaning 50 stock items to be added.
I've been trying to do this with an append query.  I have a cmd button on the form that runs the append query.
I've added only two fields to the append query at the moment.  When I run the query it adds two records instead of one!  Why?  And I haven't tried adding the date yet - dates are usually a problem!
I was doing it this way based on another question I read on stackoverlow, but don't think this will work the way I need it to. Ultimately, when I click the button, I want it to add the number of records, for example 50, if that is the number in the 8th field.
Any suggestions on the best way to do this?  Below is the sql from the append query using the first two fields.
Thanks
INSERT INTO tblSale (BookID, BookCoverType)
SELECT tblSale.BookID,
       tblSale.BookCoverType
FROM tblSale
WHERE tblSale.BookID = [forms]![FrmAddKawekaStock]![txtBookID] AND

Flexibility to Serve Free Meals Extended through End of School Year
Click Here for COVID-19 Related Resources
Public Education's Point of Reference for Making Educated Decisions
by Leilani Aguinaldo
Copyright 2022 School Services of California, Inc.
On October 9, 2020, the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) announced that flexibilities to allow free meals to be served to all kids are extended through the end of the 2020–21 school year. Specifically, waivers for the continued operation of the Summer Food Service Program (SFSP) and the Seamless Summer Option (SSO) are extended through June 30, 2021.
Prior to this announcement, the USDA had granted flexibility to leverage the SFSP and the SSO until the end of 2020 (see "USDA Extends Summer Meal Programs through End of 2020" in the September 2020 issue of the Fiscal Report). In addition to the waivers for the SFSP and the SSO, the USDA has also granted additional flexibilities for food service programs through June 30, 2021 (see "By the Way . . . USDA Approves Waiver and Waiver Extensions for Fall" in the June 2020 issue of the Fiscal Report), which:
permit meals to be served outside of the typically required group settings and meal times;
waive meal pattern requirements, as necessary; and
allow parents and guardians to pick up meals for their children.
The USDA was able to extend these waivers due to language in the federal continuing resolution that was signed into law on October 1, 2020, to keep the federal government funded through December 11, 2020, (see "President Trump Signs Stopgap Spending Measure to Avert Government Shutdown" in the October 2020 issue of the Fiscal Report).

                  const eventPair = new web3.eth.Contract(PairContractABI, element2)
                        eventPair.getPastEvents("Deposit", {
                          fromBlock: 12867493,
                          toBlock: 'latest'
                      })
                      .then(events => console.log(events))
              .catch((err) => console.error(err));
                    }
                  }}
                )}
              }
            )
          })
        }}
