Peter Defazio on Abortion
Democratic Representative (OR-4)
Voted NO on funding for health providers who don't provide abortion info.
Abortion Non-Discrimination Act of 2002: Vote to pass a bill that would prohibit the federal, state and local governments that receive federal funding from discriminating against health care providers, health insurers, health maintenance organizations, and any other kind of health care facility, organization or plan, that decline to refer patients for, pay for or provide abortion services. In addition the bill would expand an existing law "conscience clause" that protects physician training programs that refuse to provide training for abortion procedures. Reference: Bill sponsored by Bilirakis, R-FL; Bill HR 4691 ; vote number 2002-412 on Sep 25, 2002
Voted NO on banning Family Planning funding in US aid abroad.
Vote to adopt an amendment that would remove language reversing President Bush's restrictions on funding to family planning groups that provide abortion services, counseling or advocacy. Reference: Amendment sponsored by Hyde, R-IL; Bill HR 1646 ; vote number 2001-115 on May 16, 2001
Voted NO on banning partial-birth abortions.
HR 3660 would ban doctors from performing the abortion procedure called "dilation and extraction" [also known as �partial-birth� abortion]. The measure would allow the procedure only if the life of the woman is at risk. Reference: Bill sponsored by Canady, R-FL; Bill HR 3660 ; vote number 2000-104 on Apr 5, 2000
Voted NO on barring transporting minors to get an abortion.
The Child Custody Protection Act makes it a federal crime to transport a minor across state lines for the purpose of obtaining an abortion. Reference: Bill sponsored by Ros-Lehtinen, R-FL; Bill HR 1218 ; vote number 1999-261 on Jun 30, 1999
Defazio scores 100% by NARAL on pro-choice voting record
Expand contraceptive services for low-income women.
Defazio co-sponsored expanding contraceptive services for low-income women
OFFICIAL CONGRESSIONAL SUMMARY: Amends Medicaid to:
prohibit a state from providing for medical coverage unless it includes certain family planning services and supplies; and
include women who are not pregnant but who meet income eligibility standards in a mandatory "categorically needy" group for family planning services purposes.
EXCERPTS OF BILL:
Congress makes the following findings:
Rates of unintended pregnancy increased by nearly 30% among low-income women between 1994 and 2002, and a low-income woman today is 4 times as likely to have an unintended pregnancy as her higher income counterpart.
Abortion rates decreased among higher income women but increased among low income women in that period, and a low income woman is more than 4 times as likely to have an abortion as her higher income counterpart.
Contraceptive use reduces a woman's probability of having an abortion by 85%.
Levels of contraceptive use among low-income women at risk of unintended pregnancy declined significantly, from 92% to 86%.
Publicly funded contraceptive services have been shown to prevent 1,300,000 unintended pregnancies each year, and in the absence of these services the abortion rate would likely be 40% higher than it is.
By helping couples avoid unintended pregnancy, Medicaid-funded contraceptive services are highly cost-effective, and every public dollar spent on family planning saves $3 in the cost of pregnancy-related care alone.
The Social Security Act is amended by adding [to the Medicaid section] the following: COVERAGE OF FAMILY PLANNING SERVICES AND SUPPLIES -- a State may not provide for medical coverage unless that coverage includes family planning services and supplies.

Being a carer can be a very stressful job. Although you might want to be there for your loved one, it can still be an extremely difficult thing to do. It can take its toll on your health, both physically and mentally. If you're not careful, you can burn out from the stress of everything you have to do. If you're not at your best health-wise, you can't be there for the person you care for. So it's essential that you find ways to deal with stress and perhaps take a break when you need one. Use the methods below to help you manage stress so you can be there for the one you love.
Being a carer all on your own is the hardest thing of all. You need to be there for someone 24/7, and you don't get a break. It's a full-time job, much like being a parent. If you're someone's primary carer, you should think about whether you can get help from anyone else. Your first thought might be other family, who might be able to give some of their time. Even a neighbor popping in for an hour a day can be helpful. Another option is professional senior care or home care. You can have a carer or nurse come and look after your loved one to enable you to get out of the house.
You don't necessarily have to have someone helping you with caring all the time. Another useful thing to do is to arrange respite care. It gives you a break, and it gives the person you care for a break too. Respite care can involve a number of situations. You could have someone come and provide home care so that you can go away or just have a few days to yourself. The person you care for could also go and stay somewhere else for a while. Even if you're not a full-time carer, respite care can help to reduce stress for both of you.
Emotional support is essential if you're a carer. You can have a lot of feelings and lots of things affecting you. If you keep them bottled up, it could result in a lot of stress. There are several ways you can get the support you need. Some people speak to family and friends, although you might feel that they aren't able to understand as well you would like. Another option is to find a support group for carers so you can share your experiences with people who have been through similar things. You can also consider a therapist.
Don't forget to look after your physical health too. If you're not at your best physically, it can be even more difficult to handle stress. You should get adequate amounts of sleep and a healthy diet so that you can stay well. If you get ill, it's important to allow yourself time to recover.
Caring for someone you love is a lot of work, so don't try to do it alone. Make sure you have support and take care of yourself to reduce stress.

Blog Profits Blueprint is a free ebook in PDF format about making money with blogs from Yaro Starak. The other day I wrote about it but had trouble getting the download. Today I can tell you what I think about it.
The first thing to note is despite it being completely free (just provide your email address to get the download link) it is well stuffed with 55 pages of content. Not all of it is brand new and original, but it is all well written and drawn from experience. I couldn't say that about the majority of ebooks I have bought and paid for so this is an especially good and rare thing about a free ebook (ok, signup incentive, but still free!).
Yaro goes through all you need to know to make money from your blog. Not just the mechanics of monetization but also things like how to choose a blog topic. In addition there is a video screencast where he walks you through his own blog describing how he profits from it.
To get the ebook simply provide your email address. There is also an affiliate scheme that pays a commission should you buy his full training product after reading the free ebook (full disclosure, the links in this post will provide me the same commission if you later sign up to his full program).
Will you suddenly become rich following this advice? Probably not, but you will learn one or two things to help you on your way I am sure. It's free, what do you have to lose? If you want to make money directly from blogging then Blog Profits Blueprint is well worth a read.

NYC – The Walking Dead Signing
Colin Solan
Robert Kirkman and Jay Bonansinga sign at Barnes & Noble on Wednesday October 12, 2011 at 7:00 PM for the release of The Walking Dead: Rise of the Governor.
In the Walking Dead universe, there is no greater villain than The Governor. The despot who runs the walled-off town of Woodbury, he has his own sick sense of justice: whether it's forcing prisoners to battle zombies in an arena for the townspeople's amusement, or chopping off the appendages of those who cross him. The Governor was voted "Villain of the Year" by Wizard magazine the year he debuted, and his story arc was the most controversial in the history of the Walking Dead comic book series. Now, for the first time, fans of The Walking Dead will discover how The Governor became the man he is, and what drove him to such extremes.
ROBERT KIRKMAN is best known for his work on The Walking Dead and Invincible for Image Comics and SKYBOUND. He is one of the five partners of Image Comics and is an executive producer and writer on AMC's critically acclaimed television series The Walking Dead.
JAY BONANSINGA is a critically-acclaimed horror novelist whose works include Perfect Victim, Shattered, Twisted, and Frozen. His debut novel, The Black Mariah, was a finalist for a Bram Stoker award.

Vols in the Mix for Four-Star Georgia Running Back
by Nathanael Rutherford - Apr 11, 2019
(Photo via 247Sports)
One of the top running backs in the state of Georgia has the Vols as one of his top teams moving forward in his recruitment.
Jo'Quavious Marks is four-star running back who plays for Carver High School in Atlanta. He released a list of his top 10 schools, and Tennessee made the cut along with nine other programs. Marks holds two dozen offers from various FBS teams.
Thanks to all the coaches that gave me a opportunity!! 🙏🏾 @ChadSimmons_ @MattDeBary @Rivals pic.twitter.com/LBYecV9mGZ
— Joquavious marks (@JoquaviousMarks) April 8, 2019
According to the 247Sports Composite rankings, Marks is the No. 135 overall player and No. 12 running back in the 2020 class. He's the No. 14 player in the state of Georgia, and he's the second-highest rated running back in the state.
Marks has already visited Tennessee once this year, and another visit isn't out of the question. The 5-foot-11, 190-pound back visited the Vols for a Junior Day event on January 26th, and he attended a camp on UT's campus last summer. He's also recently visited Alabama, Florida State, and Mississippi State in 2019.
It's rare for a back Marks' size to be both fast and tough, but that's exactly what he is. Marks has some breakaway speed and has reportedly run the 40-yard dash in around 4.4 seconds. That speed shows on the field, as he outruns defenders with ease and blows by defensive linemen and linebackers to get to the second and third levels of the defense. Not only is he capable of blazing by defenders, but Marks is also slippery and not easy to tackle. He has good footwork and fluid hips.
Marks has put up some eye-popping numbers in his high school career thus far. As a junior, Marks totaled 1,500 rushing yards and nine scores on 140 carries according to MaxPreps. In his three years at Carver, Marks has amassed 4,872 rushing yards and 36 touchdowns on just 452 carries, giving him an average of 10.8 yards per carry. He's also caught 12 passes for 232 yards and a touchdown in his three years at Carver.
Tennessee picked up a commitment last week from a running back from Georgia already. Three-star running back Ebony Jackson pledged his commitment to the Vols while attending their scrimmage last weekend. Interestingly, both Jackson and Marks' teams faced-off during the 2018 high school football season last year. Kell High School — where Jackson plays — routed Carver by a score of 48-8 to end the regular season.
Tennessee is in a good spot with Marks, and he's one of the Vols' top targets at running back in the 2020 class. UT will likely try to sign at least a couple running backs this cycle, and Marks is a realistic option to join Jackson in this class.

Q: Neo4j Comparing string elements in array to php variable I have nodes in my database that are under the label Keywords with words as an attribute.I would like to compare a string ($mostRecentPost) with the words in the array, words.
$queryString ="WITH["Batman","Jaws","Fun","Baseball","Halo","PS4","Nike","Jeep","Mustang"] AS words MATCH (n.Keywords) WHERE ".$mostRecentPost." =~'(?i).*n.kw.*' IN words RETURN n";
$query = new Everyman\Neo4j\Cypher\Query($client, $queryString);
$relativePosts = $query->getResultSet();

Basically we have an example $mostRecentPost = a node, with content = "the new Halo looks awesome". I am trying to compare the contents of that node with the contents of the words array, when it matches one of the array words with some word in the post, it returns that word.

A: Your query seems to be totally off:

*

*you don't use your "words" anywhere

*not sure what .$mostRecentPost stands for

*your regexp is not related to the words at all
WITH["Batman","Jaws","Fun","Baseball","Halo","PS4","Nike","Jeep","Mustang"] AS words
MATCH (n.Keywords)
WHERE ".$mostRecentPost." =~'(?i).n.kw.' IN words
RETURN n
You could do (which will be not fast):
MATCH (n:Keywords)
WHERE n.text =~ '(?i).*(Batman|Jaws|Fun|...).*'
RETURN n

and use a parameter for the regexp-string
You should use fulltext-search with a list of words, see this blog post for some info on how to set it up with Neo4j 2.0 http://jexp.de/blog/2014/03/full-text-indexing-fts-in-neo4j-2-0/

Way back when I was in high school, we used to think it was so cool, and fun to drink excessively. Thinking back, its dang near humiliating at how we used to act!
We'd tell our parents (sorry mom) that we needed five dollars to go to the movies, then we'd go straight to the county line and buy a two liter (yes they used to come in two liter bottles) Sun Country wine cooler. Not to share, mind you, but one a piece. After that, we still had enough money left over to buy gas and cigarettes. FIVE DOLLARS! You can't buy anything with five dollars these days!
We'd go to Kenny's brothers house to hang out. For whatever reason, when Kenny and I would consume too much wine cooler, we'd always want to wear our friend John's retainer. Yes, you read that right. His retainer! He'd let us too! We'd take turns putting it in our mouths and try to talk. Ok, that's so disgusting to me now! Eeww!
I guess we thought John's opinion was THE standard, because, if memory serves me correctly, we'd get John to be the judge on which one of us sounded most like Regan from The Exorcist… after she was possessed. Why in the world we wanted to sound like that I'll never know, and I'm not really sure why we thought John was an expert on possession imitations? Teenage thought processing will always and forever be a mystery. Add party favors to that thought pattern and it's downright scary! This example alone is why excessive drinking is a really bad idea!
You see, when Kenny and I drank, we would apparently forget how cool we were, and want to be like John, or at least get his approval. We wanted to meet John's standards. That sort of thing happens in life a lot WITHOUT excessive drinking.
Anything can affect our thought processing, whether its drugs, alcohol, music, tv shows, or people; and when we allow the wrong things to influence our thinking, then often times we end up living up to the wrong standard. Like my friend, and former youth pastor used to say, "Trash in. Trash out.".
The same way excessive drinking changes the way you think about, or see things, the same goes for anything we 'take in'. It matters what we watch, what we listen to, what we read, and who we surround ourselves with. What we take in the most, is usually what sets our standard.
God and the world have way different standards! It's so easy to let those 'little' things creep in, and the next thing you know, you're wearing John's retainer! I don't know about you, but I'm going to try and be more careful about what I take in. If I take in more of the things of God, then I'll be more likely to live by His standards and not the world's. By who's standards are you living?
Were you at our church service yesterday? Pastor D's sermon was on Values and Standards!!! We have the choice of what Value we want to be and set. Make good decisions and go by what the WORD tells you. God offers it and its up to us to take and go with it.

LAWRENCE, Kan. – Alex Hugo erased Baylor's four-run rally just two pitches into the bottom of the seventh. Her second home run of the game powered Kansas to a 6-5 walk-off victory, tying the series with Baylor Saturday afternoon at Arrocha Ballpark.
The offense Kansas (30-14, 5-6) needed in game one was unleashed in game two. Hugo put the Jayhawks on the board with a solo homer in the bottom of the third and junior second baseman Ashley Newman piled onto the lead with a bases-clearing triple in the fourth to catapult Kansas to a 4-0 advantage.
After No. 21/14 Baylor (36-13, 7-6) scored a run in the fifth, KU immediately answered with a solo home run by freshman Chaley Brickey to all but seal the game with three outs remaining – but Baylor responded.
When a two-out error lengthened the inning and allowed a run to score in the top of the seventh, the nationally-ranked Bears predictably took advantage. Trailing 5-2, left fielder Linsey Hays drilled a three-run homer to turn a game the Jayhawks had controlled throughout into a tied contest, 5-5.
Hugo wouldn't give the Bears much time to celebrate. She saw one pitch in the bottom of the seventh before turning on the next one and sending a no-doubt blast over the scoreboard in left field.
"We had confidence that our team was going to pull it out, number one, but when she steps up I always have confidence that she's going to do something special," head coach Megan Smith said of Hugo. "My goodness that was unbelievable."
The walk-off win gives Kansas (30-14, 5-6) three-consecutive 30-win seasons in Smith's four years and gives KU at least one upset over a top-25 team in each of her seasons.
Hugo's pair of home runs led the offense and broke the KU freshman hit record in the process. The Olathe, Kan., native entered the weekend with 58 hits and her three total in Saturday's doubleheader moved her past former Jayhawk Shelly Musser (59, 1999) for the most all-time by a KU rookie.
Freshman shortstop Chaley Brickey also enjoyed a big day at the plate, cranking a home run in each game, while robbing speedy Baylor runners of base hits to the hole at short.
In the circle, fellow rookie Kelsey Kessler (8-5) went the distance by giving up five runs, only one earned, in the win. Until the Bears' four-run rally in the top of the seventh, Kessler had allowed only seven hits and one walk over six innings.
"Our freshmen looked good today," Smith said. "That's a great thing. I've got to smile when I say that. All three of them did extremely well today and we're very proud of them."
The freshmen weren't the only ones playing well in game two.
After suffering a 6-1 loss to the Bears in the series opener, the Jayhawks needed to set the tone early in the nightcap. Newman did exactly that, slamming her three-run triple to the left field wall in the bottom of the fourth and providing run support that proved to be crucial.
"Coach always says, don't wait for somebody else to do it. Step up and do it," Newman said. "At that time, I was thinking `I want to do it, I'm going to do it.' So I went with that and it was great."
In addition, sophomore right fielder Cassen Salamone went 2-for-2, while fellow outfielders Maggie Hull and Alex Jones tracked down eight fly balls combined.
Baylor's freshman starter Heather Stearns was replaced by Courtney Repka (5-2) following Newman's triple. Although Stearns was charged with four runs in her 3.1 innings, Repka gave up the home runs to Brickey and Hugo to take the loss.
Hays led the Baylor offense, going 3-for-4 with three RBIs. Right fielder Kaitlyn Thumann and third baseman Sarah Smith each posted two hits apiece.
Kansas and Baylor will decide the series on Sunday at noon. The weekend finale also marks the Jayhawks for a Cure Orange Game event to honor fighters, survivors and victims of kidney cancer, including Paul Buske, the late husband of head coach Megan Smith. Fans wearing orange will be admitted for $3.

Hi, I am very new to this and am currently working on a 3d 5 gallon bucket. I have the basic shape of the bucket and it's drafted, but I cant figure out how to get the rings you see on buckets on it. Any help would be greatly appreciated.


Yes, lie detector tests may come in handy when trying to spot the holes in a suspect's alibi, however as we discover in the fifth season of TNT's wildly popular award-winning series The Closer, the ability for the police to lie while trying to interrogate a possible perpetrator may be even more important.
Whether Brenda Leigh Johnson (Kyra Sedgwick) is telling a man she has witnesses who claim they saw a body being dragged from a building in the wee small hours of the morning or she's playing two villains off on one another, nobody is better at bluffing, fibbing, and refusing to lay her actual cards on the table than the Deputy Chief of L.A.'s Major Crimes Division.
And although seeing her in action rattling off one lie after another is alarming on the job to her F.B.I. agent husband Fritz, for the loyal team with whom she cleans up the grisliest cases day after day it's just business as usual as the fifth season finds the squad in the midst of serial killings, gang shootouts, cases of mistaken identity, cold cases turned hot, and even a body that is sent Cash on Delivery right to Major Crimes.
Throughout, Brenda's outwardly feminine southern belle politeness masks her ruthless determination to solve the most heinous cases. And some of the strongest episodes of the season find her routinely butting heads with the equally headstrong Internal Affairs investigator Captain Sharon Raydor (Mary McDonnell) whenever there's a police involved shooting, including one that found two officers dead in the line of duty and another's allegedly abusive spouse being shot dead.
Likewise, the Chief's loyalties to her family are tested when Brenda and Fritz must play guardian to her unruly teenager niece, despite the fact that she realizes that the girl can come in handy as Brenda's not above using a relative to try to solve a pair of dangerous cases.
Needless to say there's plenty of action to be found in this four-disc, fifteen episode set even if we quickly learn that we wouldn't want to be anywhere near Brenda when she's off the job as her largely neglected and ignored husband can attest. Yet it's fascinating to watch the way everything just clicks into place at the department, irregardless of the fact that given the show's roughly forty-two minute running time, it's therefore fairly easy to figure out exactly who the killer is long before Major Crimes does.
While the writers plant some clues in plain sight making it slightly irksome when the series experts can't seem to add them up, the show is particularly effective when it adds in an unpredictable element to break up the police procedural formula. This decision to break up the monotony can be found on a number of levels from bringing in a delusional witness who is convinced he's a detective to a few unexpected twists when a retired former partner of Provenza's returns as a woman rather than a man.
Additionally remembering that the show is nothing without its routinely Emmy and Golden Globe nominated star, from testing Brenda's emotional side after a school shooting to deciding whether or not solving a crime is more important than making sure the punishment fits when debating whether to hand over a serial killer to Texas authorities, the fifth season offers Sedgwick plenty of opportunities to shine.
And despite the fact that I like the performance better than the character and the series overall, in the season's superior episodes including "Tapped Out," "Strike Three," "Identity Theft," "Maternal Instincts," "Waivers of Extradition," "Make Over," and "Dead Man's Hand," it's easy to see that unlike Brenda, the ratings don't lie in illustrating why this show continues to attract such a following of those looking for something distinctly different in their cops and criminals fare.

Home Solar News Is Nevada PUC's Anti-Solar Ruling Devastating Local Solar Companies?
Is Nevada PUC's Anti-Solar Ruling Devastating Local Solar Companies?
Following the decision by Gov. Sandoval's Public Utilities Commission of Nevada (PUCN) to change the rules on rooftop solar, Go Solar, a locally owned electrical company that specializes in residential and commercial solar PV, was forced to eliminate more than 17 jobs in Las Vegas and drastically reduce the hours of 10 others – affecting approximately half of the company's workforce.
The electrical company calls the decision 'particularly callous' and posits that Nevadans will now question whether the state will ever place the financial security of regular citizens above the interests of the entrenched utility NV Energy.
As previously reported, Sunrun predicted that once this decision was made, local solar companies would be forced to layoff a significant portion of their workforce or shut down entirely. 'The local solar business community is perplexed when we hear Senator Farley, Governor Sandoval, and others say 'the Nevada solar industry agreed with sending this decision to the PUCN,'' says Scott Shaw, director of research and development at Go Solar.
'I assure Nevadans, no one consulted with any of the local solar business people despite our attempts to be part of the process,' he asserts. 'We are still waiting to hear from our elected lawmakers and are convinced they and the commission will do the right thing once they realize the true impact of this flawed decision.'
'These are very dedicated Nevadans with families to support,' continued Shaw. 'This is not what they expected from their elected government.'

The number of geriatric patients across the United States increases every year as Baby Boomers age. Worldwide, approximately 47 million individuals suffer from dementia; by 2050 that number is predicted to reach a staggering 131 million. Medicomp reminds its physicians that cardiac event recorders given to patients with dementia can catch anomalies patients are unable to express.
The link between the heart and brain is evident. When the brain does not recognize pain or differences in heart rhythm, or if your patient is unable to verbalize these changes, the patient's heart will suffer. Conversely, if the heart is not pumping properly, the brain suffers from lack of oxygen and glucose, which can eventually lead to partial or complete brain death. When arteries narrow because of atherosclerosis, these nutrients are blocked. Studies have proven that the same risk factors that lead to atherosclerosis are responsible for cognitive impairment such as dementia. The American Heart Association's Life's Simple 7 outlines cardiovascular health guidelines to help protect patient hearts — and minds. Share these with your middle-aged patients.
Controlling blood pressure: High blood pressure constantly stretches arteries throughout the body, including those within the brain, making aneurysms are more prevalent with high blood pressure.
Cholesterol: Plaque and fatty buildup along arterial walls alter blood flow and constrict contractility.
Blood sugar: Patients with diabetes mellitus are much more likely to suffer cardiovascular problems, and today's generation of obese patients will lead to later decades of brain dysfunction.
Weight: As patients gain mass, that mass must be fed by blood vessels. Excessive vascularization of tissue puts strain on the heart.
Healthy diet: Several studies have proven that underweight patients are more likely than average weight patients to suffer from dementia as they age. Likewise, obese patients are more likely to fall into the category of patients with dementia. Eating a diet loaded with whole foods and the correct balance of nutrients will stave off the agony of dementia.
Stop smoking: Carcinogens and other poisons in cigarettes are deadly. The amount of damage to a patient's lungs after smoking deters proper oxygenation of blood and leads to disease and systemic failure.
Physical activity: It only takes 150 minutes of moderate exercise or 75 minutes of vigorous exercise per week to recognize the benefits of good health. Endorphins are just the icing on the cake.
Give your patients the gift of health by presenting them with these life-changing options. Contact Medicomp at 800-23-HEART and visit our website for information on cardiac event recorders to ascertain whether your patients are suffering from heart problems that may lead to dementia later in life.

To the right of this post, you should see "Defective Yeti"- one of my favorite blogs.
In his Favorite posts page, I found this gem, which in light of the Pope's recent passing, seems appropriate, if allegorical only. And somehow a dose of perspective couldn't hurt for BN, as well. Soldier on, man.


I watch the stats on pages- these pages only get attention from old members who know how to navigate the site and those members who follow the discussion get an email to show there has been activity The forum discussion page gets the bulk of traffic landings, along with our Home Page.
I work very hard trying to drive new traffic to open more discussions, so this site will continue to grow- we need more Patriots!
would that be a workable compromise?
....did i read a headline today that said WWPelosi told them to change their narrative now and they have, already?
Liberal is the root word of liberty and liberate. It means freedom. The true definition of a liberal is a person who holds individual freedom to be the most important political issue. The limitation of government interference in business and individual lives is the real central theme of liberalism.
...and this is why I contest the interchangeable usage of the words 'liberal' and 'progressive'. Progressives (of both major political parties) are all about government controlling EVERY aspect of life and there's NOTHING liberal about that. The interchangeable usage of the words is both/either intellectually lazy and/or habitual partisan spin - and a misnomer, a mis-identity.
Btw: The fact that Kim Foxx committed a "James Comey" w/ Jussie Smollett as was done w/ Hillary Clinton shows just how completely crazy-arrogant the Obama-left have become. They believe that they'll get away w/ that completely unscathed as well. And they probably will too.
so, you're position is that even though it's false and works against us, since it's become the norm we should adapt? sorry, not my style.. feels like concession to me. How do we take back all that stuff if we adapt to it's perversions? By law, through politicians?? i'd laugh sarcastically but that guarantees such a sad outcome it ain't funny - even sarcastically.
Louise Pound (1872–1958) was a distinguished literary scholar, renowned athlete, accomplished musician, and devoted women's sports advocate. She is perhaps best remembered for her groundbreaking work in the field of linguistics and folklore and for her role as the first woman president of the Modern Language Association.
The terminologies were twisted many many decades ago. I had already explained what needs to be done to set it right. To try to explain to the millennals...who have already been brainwashed and indoctrinated, mind you...the actual prigons of such terms will be even harder than trying to convince reasonable people that SocSec is just a tax and a ponzi scheme. Lots o' luck w/ dat one too!
The entire system including the morals of our society is FUBAR! And we still haven't hit rock bottom as far as the corruption and demoralization is concerned.
In other words: It's going to get even WORSE! All historical evidence points to that direction. Mankind can not fix itself - no more than DC can.
I know...Going back to TPP I've been called "negative". A "gloomy gus / fear monger" that has nothing positive to say. Remember them daze?
Well, just about everything I calculated would happen has. And thgnis ARE getting worse.
Later, buddy. Over and out.
I think many of the awake, alert, conservative, Patriots have come to the same conclusions as you do/did, I think many feard putting it into words!
Yes, things are getting worse, yes our society is (almost) fubar. But it is up to US to fix it!
To interject here, I believe the use of words is one of our most powerful tools. Especially, the use of Hegel's Dialectic - the"manipulating" of opposing arguments. I wrote an article on this a few years ago. I believe this results in brainwashing and targets those who are not aware.
"Hegel's dialectics" refers to the particular dialectical method of argument employed by the 19th Century German philosopher, G.W.F. Hegel (see entry on Hegel), which, like other "dialectical" methods, relies on a contradictory process between opposing sides.
"In the fullness of time, two congressional committees will eventually provide a Synthesis which, in the main, is highly likely to support President Trump's Thesis. But, that does not mean that the Hegelian Dialectic should be dismissed as an "Art of the Deal," con game.
So YES, the use of Words, the manipulation of debate and brainwashing - words!

Park Live () is an annual international music festival, which takes place in Moscow, Russia.
The main point of festival is to bring "pop-culture heroes of our time" to Russia.

A lot of artists who have played concerts at Park Live were in Russia for the first time.

2013
The first festival was held at the All-Russia Exhibition Centre for three days from June 28 to 30.
The event was headlined by Limp Bizkit, The Killers, and Zemfira.
In addition, on the night of June 29–30, Park Live Night was held at the Chemical Stage, located in the pavilion of VDNKh No. 20 "Chemical Industry" from 23 p.m. to 6 a.m. the next day.

Kyiv
Kyiv held its own event in-line with the Park Live festival on the same dates. Initially, the festival was planned to be held at the Expocenter of Ukraine 3 days in a row, but due to the unfavorable political situation in the city, then a decision was made to change the format of the festival in Kyiv.
The event was to be held at the Stereo Plaza concert club on June 26 and 27. The headliner of the first day was to be the Deftones and the headliners of the second day were to be Enter Shikari and Wolfmother.

Also on June 28 and 29 concerts of two previously planned groups(Wild Beasts and Skillet), as well as a special guest deTach, were to be held at the Sentrum and Stereo Plaza clubs as part of the Park Live Kyiv festival.

2015

In 2015, Park Live festival was held in Moscow at the Otkritie Arena stadium on June 19. The headliner of the day was the famous British band Muse. This was the first time the festival has reduced the number of days from three to one.

2016

Moscow

In 2016, the festival was again held in Moscow at the Otkrytie Arena stadium on July 9 and 10. The American rock band Red Hot Chili Peppers became the headliner of the first day of the festival, and the American singer Lana Del Rey became the headliner on July 10.

Prominent Egyptian Blogger Arrested
Alaa Abdel-Fattah, seen with his wife and child in March, was arrested from his home Thursday.
An Egyptian blogger who rose to fame during the 2011 uprising that ousted President Hosni Mubarak has been arrested under a controversial new law that bans unauthorized protests.
Police arrested Alaa Abdel-Fattah at his home late Thursday night as his toddler slept nearby. When his wife demanded to see an arrest warrant, police beat both of them, a press release from the family said. NPR's Leila Fadel is reporting on the story for our Newscast unit:
"An arrest warrant was issued for him and another prominent youth activist following protests on Tuesday that ended with dozens in jail after police beat and chased them. Abdel-Fattah had publicly declared he would turn himself in on Saturday."
The arrest is the latest move in Egypt's crackdown on protesters since the ouster in July of Islamist President Mohammed Morsi. There have been near-daily anti-government protests since the military-backed coup that toppled Morsi. Here's more from The Associated Press:
"Abdel-Fattah previously was detained for two months in late 2011 by military authorities over allegations he attacked soldiers carrying out a bloody crackdown on protesters. He was later released without charge. He also was accused of inciting violence during clashes between opponents and supporters of Morsi before his ouster."
He was previously arrested in 2006 and spent a month and a half in jail.
NPR's Michele Norris spoke to Abdel-Fattah in June 2011, after mass protests ousted longtime leader Mubarak. At the time, he described himself as "a foot soldier" in the uprising.

Q: Spring Boot, H2 and Flyway: run integration tests with two versions of the database For blue/green deployment, it is required that the new application version run with both the old and the new database version. So my integration tests should run twice: with previous database version (partial migration to version-1) and then with latest version.
I could do this by setting up a local MySQL database and handle the migration and test running manually but I wonder if there is a way to use H2 and automate the process somehow for CI.
I have a very basic Spring Boot/Flyway setup.
application.yaml:
spring:
  profiles: db_h2
  ...
flyway:
  locations: classpath:/flyway/h2,classpath:/flyway/common,classpath:/flyway/testdata

test parent class:
@RunWith(SpringRunner.class)
@SpringBootTest(classes = Application.class, webEnvironment = SpringBootTest.WebEnvironment.RANDOM_PORT)
@TestExecutionListeners({DependencyInjectionTestExecutionListener.class, FlywayTestExecutionListener.class })
@ActiveProfiles({"db_h2","logging_quiet", "http_secure_selfsigned", "credentials_insecure"})
public abstract class RestIntTestParent {
   ...
    @Before
    @FlywayTest
    public void setUpAll() throws Exception {
        ...
    }
}

an example of a REST Assured test:
public class SettingsIntTest extends RestIntTestParent {
    private static final String URL = "/users/me/settings";

    @Test
    public void testGetAll() {
        final String authTokenAlice = getAuthToken("alice");

        given(this.specApi)
            .header(AUTH_HEADER, authTokenAlice)
            .get(URL)
        .then()
            .statusCode(HttpStatus.OK.value())
            .body("content", hasSize(4))
            .body("content[3].intVal1", equalTo(28))
            .body("content[1].jsonVal[2].year", equalTo(2015));
    }
}


LinYee Yuan '02CC publishes Mold magazine, a guide to the future of responsible food production and design.
Rather, Mold is focused on the future of food, covering innovative ideas from the design and tech worlds that have the potential to change the way we eat. In the most recent issue, which is organized around the theme of waste, she highlights designers who are using food byproducts to create new materials, like a bioplastic made entirely of artichokes that will be used to package fruits and vegetables. Another article features a startup that has created a plant-based coating that delays spoilage in produce, literally using waste to reduce future waste.
There's plenty of fodder for foodies, including a report from the fermentation lab at the legendary Copenhagen restaurant Noma. But these articles are less concerned with gourmet fare than with the creative ways the proprietors are finding to be responsible food producers. At Noma, for example, fermentation experts talk about how their job "often begins in the garbage bin." They use the scraps that might be discarded in another kitchen and turn them into vinegars, pickles, and other condiments.
The ethos of respecting food was ingrained in Yuan from the time she was a child growing up in Houston. "No one talked about it in environmental or even explicitly economic terms, but I was taught that food was not to be squandered," she says. Yuan's mother was a dietitian and her father an amateur gardener and fisherman. "We were eating seasonally and locally before it was cool," she says.
At Columbia, Yuan majored in Asian-American studies and also interned at Harper's Bazaar and Asian Avenue, a very early social-networking site. After a short stint teaching in Asia, Yuan landed her dream job at the Fader, a magazine covering music, style, and culture. "Working there showed me that magazines have the potential not only to comment on but to change society," she says.
From there, Yuan bounced around — working for a streetwear company, then at a magazine devoted to Asian-American culture, and even running her own barbecue pit at a Brooklyn flea market — before she was hired in 2010 as an editor at a design website called Core77. "Working there was basically a crash course in industrial design," she says. Through Core77, Yuan started attending design conventions and was inspired by several projects on food design — everything from refrigerators that alert you when your food is about to spoil to edible food packaging made from seaweed.
Yuan had already been thinking about starting her own website devoted to food design when in 2012 she heard a statistic that stopped her in her tracks. "The UN released a report saying that if we continue to produce and consume food the way we do now, we'll essentially run out by 2030." Yuan says that the terrifying prediction gave her magazine an organizing principle. "There was this huge and obvious problem, and it seemed like no one was looking to the design world to solve it," she says.
Though Yuan had initially conceived of Mold as a website, she realized that there was value in the print medium. In 2017, she launched a Kickstarter campaign to help her fund six biannual issues. She raised more than $35,000, which allowed her to print five thousand copies of each issue and to hire a freelance designer, though she remains the only full-time staff member.
This article appears in the Spring 2019 print edition with the title "Eater's Digest."

Home Community 4 Ways Sigmas Set The Bar High
4 Ways Sigmas Set The Bar High
Robert Hoggard
1. Seekers of Superior Scholarship
"The Dean", Alain Leroy Locke, the First Black Rhodes Scholar in 1907, is an excellent member of our wondrous band. Enough said? I think so! Adding to that, Brother Rod Paige went on to be the first African-American US Secretary of Education from 2001-2005 under the George W. Bush administration. Sigma brothers show scholarship!
2. Changers of Public Policies
A Phillip Randolph was known to be a nonviolent and direct action strategist. In fact, he helped push President Franklin D. Roosevelt to issue an executive order banning racial degradation on government defense factories. He also pushed FDR to establish the Fair Employment Practices Committee. Furthermore, Randolph later challenged President Harry S. Truman to issue an order banning racial injustice in the U.S Armed forces.
Randolph helped changed many public policies as a Sigma man. Like Randolph, Sigma brother Rev. Al Sharpton is known today as one of the most efficient organizers in the country. Despite the naysayers, there are so many great things that Sharpton has done to help better the country and its citizens, in particular African-Americans.
On his show, Politics Nation he always talks about the policies that perpetuates injustices in this nation. Sharpton, Randolp and numerous other Sigma brothers, like John Lewis and Hosea Williams, have shed blood and tears for humanity. They purposely live our motto: "Culture for service, service to humanity."
3. Quality Treatment To All Women
When I meet Zetas, we share a deep bond that can never be trivialized.
Sigmas have always been known to have an unbreakable bond with Zeta Phi Beta Sorority Inc. Zeta and Sigma are the nay constitutional bonded Black Greek organizations. Sigmas treat Zetas well and it doesn't stop there!
4. Mentoring Youth
One of the great things about Phi Beta Sigma is that we have a very powerful mentoring program: The "Sigma Beta Club". This program is responsible for mentoring young people through the challenges that they face in life.
The Sigma Beta Club is all about investing in the young people, the future leaders of tomorrow, so that they are ready to lead and serve whenever called upon, and no matter the obstacles.
Sigmas sets the bar high, and always think and act on being a part of the DNA of the community rather than being separate from the community. This makes us who we are when we enter the world to serve humanity.
Happy Founders Day, frat!

Here's what University of Minnesota regent Steve Sviggum told Morning Edition's Cathy Wurzer about how he'd react if the Board of Regents finds a potential conflict of interest between his regent's position and new job as Minnesota Senate Republican Caucus spokesman.
Wurzer: If the board comes back and says look Mr. Speaker, we think this a problem, you'll step down.
Wurzer: So if they say this is a problem, you will not step down.
Sviggum: I don't intend to, Cathy. Again, you're talking about a hypothetical situation.
Sviggum walk away from easy government money???NO WAY. If you want to get rid of him you'll have to threaten him with a job where he actually has to work for a living. He's been at the Teet soo long he wouldn't know what to do in the real world. What I have heard he has not paid for a lunch or dinner in 20 years.
Just like a politician, make the rules for somebody else!

Truckee Donner PUD lighting program helps school district save money
Jason Shueh/Sierra Sun
TRUCKEE and#8212; A partnership with the Truckee Donner Public Utility District (TDPUD) paid big for the Tahoe Truckee Unified School District (TTUSD) as the district received $18,736 from the TDPUD at its regular board meeting. The rebate was part of the TDPUDand#8217;s Commercial Lighting Rebate Program and the school districtand#8217;s investment in high-efficiency lighting will save money for years to come.
The school district worked with the TDPUD and contractors in 2010 to define the most cost-effective projects using energy-saving fluorescent and LED lighting. The TDPUD then contributed one third of the project cost via rebate. Participating schools included Truckee High, Truckee Elementary and Alder Creek Middle School. The lighting projects will save the schools an estimated $10,000 per year and offer an approximately five-year simple payback.
and#8220;TDPUD has been instrumental in helping the school district identify and achieve several conservation measures,and#8221; said Anna Klovstad, TTUSD project manager. and#8220;The success of our energy conservation program is largely attributed to their resources and rebates.and#8221;
The TDPUD has helped local businesses and agencies invest in cost-effective lighting projects by providing more than $80,000 in rebates in the last two years. The lighting program is one of several energy and water savings programs the TDPUD offers its commercial and business customers.
and#8220;The TDPUD works closely with business customers to help reduce usage and save money,and#8221; said Jeff Bender, president of the TDPUD board of directors. and#8220;This partnership with the school district is just one example of the many energy and water savings programs that we have available that can really help an organizationand#8217;s bottom line.and#8221;
For more information about Truckee Donner Public Utility District energy and water savings programs, call 530-582-3931 or visit http://www.tdpud.org.
About TDPUD

TDPUD provides the greater Truckee area with reliable and high quality water and power services while guiding the community to conserve resources. For more information about the TDPUD, call 530-587-3896 or visit http://www.TDPUD.org.


When we select ASCE as the specified wind code and taken into CII calculation , how do we consider the parameter for structure damping coeff. ? CII marked the typical value could be 0.03 ; however, it can't be found that the specified valuces defined in ASCE code , is any reasonable reason to use 0.03 as default value ?
Older documents (USNRC and ASME III) listed piping system damping values of 1% to 3% for seismic use. These sources now show 5% critical damping. In my opinion this change was implemented to better-match actual system performance regarding seismic events.
Usually lower damping will simply increase the applied model load so lower damping may be considered more conservative.
Thanks for your reply and I will think it in deep.

Charles Dickens was the master of using coincidence as a literary device to portray social horrors. Oliver Twist condemned to the workhouse by greedy guardians, Sydney Carton making up for his wasted life by volunteering for a guillotine manned by angry French peasants, Little Dorritt in debtors' prison. The best use of Dickens' device, coincidence, was in A Handful of Dust in which a heartbroken jungle adventurer is imprisoned by a native tribe and condemned to read Little Dorrit to the chief for the rest of his life. In all of these and in most great literature, all comes out in the end, usually as unexpected consequences and not always as hoped for.
Could a story have a more unintended consequence than for the courage of our parents and our grandparents in finding the will and way to survive their harsh lives in World War II to become the legacy of our having 18 ½ % APR credit cards to buy flat screen televisions to watch when we get home to eat fast food rather than cook? Is it a coincidence, and how will it end?
I wrote French Letters, both Virginia's War and Engaged in War, because I believe that our parents and grandparents found the courage to fight and survive World War II, on battlefield and home front, not so that six decades later we would spend our way to staggering household credit debt to buy cell phones and five day cruises but because they thought life could go back to the way it had been. They believed that with the destruction of the Axis they could resume growing up with their cousins, living in small home towns with Sunday dinners and rocking on the verandah, picking a husband or wife and sticking with it. It was not to be. Drugs, divorce, moving far from home in search of a job, and easy credit are just a few of the derailments on the road to riches triggered by the restlessness of the war generation. True, not all the changes are bad – widespread university education, racial and gender equality, science, all these and more have their seeds in that war.
Nowhere, however, does our parents' bequest seem to have had a more unexpected destiny than the phenomenal development of medicine and medical care. Penicillin, surgery, and radiology in all their forms have delivered us from millennia of death in childbirth and childhood, death from illness and infection, and enabled care for conditions that could never before be diagnosed or treated. Thanks to the urgency of that war's medical horrors, we now live and expect to live well past the age of 80 or even 90.
And therein the problem – with so few people dying now, thanks to the wartime discoveries that became medical advances, the planet's overflow population turns back to war for solutions to overcrowding.
