Q: Election measurable in uniform continuity Let $f:[0,1]\times [0,1] \rightarrow \mathbb{R}$ borel measurable such that for all $x \in [0,1]$ $f(x,-):[0,1] \rightarrow \mathbb{R}$ is continuous, in particular uniformly continuous.
Then there $\delta(x)>0$ such that for $\vert w-s\vert < \delta(x)$ implies $\vert f(x,w)-f(x,s)\vert <1$ as is well known.
My question is if $\delta(x) $ may be chosen so that $x \mapsto \delta(x)$  is  Borel measurable ?
I appreciate any suggestions

A: For $\delta > 0$, let
$$
F_\delta : [0,1] \to \Bbb{R}, x \mapsto \sup_{v,w \in \Bbb{Q} \cap [0,1], |v-w|<\delta} |f(x,v) - f(x,w)|
$$
and note that $F_\delta$ is measurable as a countable(!) supremum of measurable functions (and well-defined, as $f(x, \cdot)$ is a bounded function).
Thus, $\chi_{F_\delta \leq 1/2}$ (where $\chi_M$ is the indicator function of $M$) is also measurable for each $\delta > 0$.
Now define
$$
G : [0,1] \to \Bbb{R}, x \mapsto \sup_{\delta \in \Bbb{Q} \cap [0,1]} \delta \cdot \chi_{F_\delta \leq 1/2}(x).
$$
As above, $G$ is measurable.
Now, essentially as you noted, for each $x \in [0,1]$, there is some $\delta_x > 0$ so that $F_{\delta_x} (x) < 1/2$ holds. This implies $G(x) \geq \delta_x > 0$ and thus
$$
G(x) = \sup_{\delta \in \Bbb{Q} \cap [0,1] \text{ with } F_\delta (x) \leq 1/2} \delta.
$$
For $v,w \in \Bbb{Q} \cap [0,1]$ with $|v-w| < G(x)$, there is thus $\delta \in \Bbb{Q} \cap [0,1]$ with $|v-w| < \delta$ and
$$
|f(x, v) - f(x,w)| \leq \sup_{v',w' \in \Bbb{Q} \cap [0,1], |v'-w'| < \delta} |f(x, v') - f(x,w')| = F_\delta (x) \leq 1/2.
$$
Because $f(x, \cdot)$ is continuous and $\Bbb{Q} \cap [0,1]$ is dense in $[0,1]$, we easily see $|f(x, v) - f(x,w)| \leq 1/2 < 1$ for all $v,w \in [0,1]$ with $|v-w| < G(x)$.
Thus, $\delta(x) := G(x)$ does what you want.
EDIT: Also note that we did not use that $f$ is Borel-measurable in both variables. It actually suffices that $f(\cdot, \delta)$ is Borel-measurable for every $\delta \in \Bbb{Q} \cap [0,1]$.

Trader who lost $7 billion says bosses approved
Jerome Kerviel insisted that his No. 1 concern was "earning money for my bank."AP
Jan. 27, 2008, 3:10 PM UTC / Source: The Associated Press
The trader accused of causing about $7 billion in losses at Societe Generale told investigators that he believes his bosses were aware of his massive risk-taking on markets but turned a blind eye as long as he earned money, a judicial official said Tuesday.
Societe Generale, which said last week that Kerviel's actions cost it nearly 5 billion euros, quickly accused Kerviel of lying. In another twist to the multifaceted case, France's financial markets authority opened an investigation into the bank, France's second-largest.
Kerviel, a 31-year-old junior trader, told investigators of efforts to mask his massive transactions, but said the bank must nonetheless have noticed something suspicious, according to excerpts of his police testimony published in Le Monde newspaper. Kerviel's remarks were confirmed by Isabelle Montagne, a spokeswoman for the Paris prosecutor's office.
"I can't believe that my superiors were not aware of the amounts I was committing, it is impossible to generate such profits with small positions," Kerviel said, according to the account confirmed by Montagne.
A lawyer for Societe Generale said the bank was "a victim of someone who lied, who cheated."
"When you are questioned by police or judges, you have the right to lie," lawyer Jean Veil told RTL radio.
Kerviel said the mere fact that he only took four vacation days in 2007 should have been a glaring sign to the bank that he was unwilling to let another trader step in for him.
"The techniques I used were not at all sophisticated, and any correctly conducted check should be able to detect these operations," he said, according to the testimony in Le Monde that the prosecution official confirmed.
Kerviel also insisted that his No. 1 concern was "earning money for my bank."
"As long as I was earning cash, the signs were not that worrisome," he said. "As long as you earn money and it isn't too obvious, and it's convenient, nobody says anything."
According to the testimony, the futures trader also told investigators that his pattern of hidden trades started in 2005 with a bet that turned profitable when markets fell because of terror attacks in London.
"It makes you want to continue, there's a snowball effect," he was quoted as saying.
France's market watchdog, the Autorite des Marches Financiers, or AMF, said it had opened a probe into Societe Generale.
Christine Anglade, a spokeswoman for the body, gave no details on the nature of the investigation and would not say whether it had any relation to Kerviel. Les Echos newspaper reported that the AMF has been examining the trading in the bank's shares in the days before the announcement of Kerviel's actions.
A lawyer for a group of Societe Generale shareholders, Frederik Canoy, has filed a legal complaint asking investigators to look into possible insider trading.
On Monday, the market watchdog said in a routine disclosure that a member of Societe Generale's board, Robert A. Day, sold 85.75 million euros ($126.1 million) worth of shares in the bank on Jan. 9 — two weeks before the fraud announcement and well before bank management says it discovered the problem. Day is an investment manager with U.S.-based Trust Company of the West, or TCW.
Two foundations linked to Day, the Robert A. Day Foundation and the Kelly Day Foundation, also sold a total of 9.59 million euros ($14.1 million) worth of shares one day later, on Jan. 10. Regulators made no allegation of wrongdoing.
Josh Pekarsky, a spokesman for Day, said all required government disclosures were made, and he said no "inside information was used in any way with respect to these sales."
The bank's troubles have led to increased speculation that it may be the target of a takeover bid. Prime Minister Francois Fillon said his government will seek to fend off any hostile takeover.
Kerviel was pinned Monday with preliminary charges of "breach of trust," "forgery and using forgeries" and unauthorized computer activity, the Paris prosecutor's office said. The judges did not pursue an attempted fraud charge sought by prosecutors.
One of his lawyers, Elisabeth Meyer, called the lighter-than-expected charges a "victory." Paris prosecutors appealed the decision to free Kerviel.

Bruce, Caitlyn Jenner Net Worth 2019, Age, Height, Weight, Instagram, Twitter, Snapchat
Caitlyn Jenner is an American reality TV star and a former athlete. Her estimated net worth is somewhere around 100$ million.
Caitlyn Jenner (Bruce Jenner) was born on October 28, 1949 in Mount Kisco, New York. She grew up in a large family with two sisters and one brother. Her mother was a homemaker and her father was an abortist. She was always an athletic child and most of her time during high school was spent playing sports.
Her favorite sports were football and track, so it was no wonder she later pursued an athletic career. Cait had problems with reading and writing, it was later discovered that she had dyslexia. The condition didn't stop her from getting good grades at school or to later attend college.
She concentrated more on her football practices and trainings, and after high school she accepted a football scholarship from Graceland College. It was there that she mastered her skills to perfection and was ready to compete in big competitions.
During one practice, Caitlyn had hurt her knee pretty seriously, so she had to discharge her football career. Never the less, her coach noticed her talent in running and offered her a chance to practice with the track team. She accepted and, little did she knew, that this will make her famous later on in life.
Caitlyn, or then Bruce, was a real champion on the tracks. She was fast and her perseverance was something that was impressing. She concentrated on decathlon discipline and continued to pursue an athletic career, after graduating from Graceland College with a degree in physical education.
After graduating from college, Caitlyn continued her decathlon practice and often worked night shifts so she could train at night and prepare for competitions. Her hard training and will to succeed got her into the Olympic Team in 1972.
Preparations for the Olympic Games were tough and Cait did everything she could to stay focused and to get into the best shape of her life. All the hard work and dedication finally paid off during the 1976 Olympic Games when Cait won a gold medal in decathlon.
After receiving a gold medal for something that was usually reserved for Soviet runners at that time, the U.S. people saw Cait as a national hero and someone to be proud of as a country. She returned to the United States and the media went wild for this talented athlete.
Caitlyn was then a man, and she hadn't yet come out as transgender women, so for many women of that time, Bruce was a man of the year in every sense. She received many rewards and was, together with the rest of the Olympic team, a national pride.
With fame, came many endorsements and sponsorships for this, once struggling athlete. She landed deals with Minolta, Buster Brown Shoes and Tropicana. These were only some of the large brands that endorsed Caitlyn after her brilliant Olympic performance.
She often appeared on TV shows and interviews, which received a large number of viewers every time. Probably the biggest endorser at that time was the cereal brand called Wheaties. They were largely popular during eighties.
Wheaties used Caitlyn (Bruce's) picture that was taken during Olympic triumph and put it on their package. She became the spokesperson and brand face for their company. They are still in contract with Cait, even though her picture is not on their packaging.
From all the endorsements and sponsorships, Caitlyn was able to start her own business and maintain her wealth even now. She is the vice-president of the JennerNat and an owner of the Bruce Jenner's Westwood Centers for Nautilus and Aerobics as well as of the Bruce Jenner Aviation company.
The Aviation company sells aircraft supplies and both companies only bring more money to the bank for this successful former athlete.

Bruce Jenner came out as a transgender woman in 2014. There were always rumors about his sexual life and even his family members had doubt about him. They revealed it later after he came out as transgender.
We were able to see his transformation on our screens, and also the reactions about the coming out from his family members.
Bruce married Kris Kardashian in 1991 and the couple has two daughters together, Kylie and Kendall. The audience always saw Bruce and Kris as a perfect couple that stayed together for such a long time, so after he came out, the fans were shocked.
Caitlyn also has four more children with two more wives. She is currently single and enjoys finally being able to be who she really is.
Relationship with her daughters suffered a little after her coming out, but the family is still adapting to the new Cait.

Caitlyn Jenner Interesting Facts
Even though her win at the Olympic Games is something she became famous for, we best know Cait from her appearance on the Keeping Up with the Kardashians reality TV show. Cait (once Bruce) married Kris Kardashian and got involved into filming a reality TV show that was based on filming everyday lives of the members of the Kardashian family.
Caitlyn was on the show from the beginning and we were able to watch on our screens how her life changed completely. After coming out in 2014, Caitlyn started filming her own reality TV show, based on her everyday life.
Even though the audience loved watching the Kardashian family, Cait's show, called I am Cait, didn't receive the same feedback. The show got cancelled but never the less, Cait earns a fair amount of money from her companies and public performances.
She often holds speeches in events and for her appearance she requests large numbers. One source even said that Caitlyn requested a 100$ thousand for one speech. Her net worth currently is 100$ million, but in the years to come we can expect her net worth to rise even more.

Alleged Collection Mill Agrees To Settle Class Suit Over Cursory Case Handling
By K&S on January 11th, 2012 | No Comments
Posted in: Fair Debt Collection, Fair Debt Collection Practices Act, FDCPA
Tags: Fair Debt Collection Practices Act, FDCPA, Forster, Garbus & Garbus, lawsuit, new jersey
Hackensack law firm Forster, Garbus & Garbus has agreed to pay $35,000 to settle claims that it filed hundreds of debt collection suits against consumers without individual attorney review.
The firm allegedly violated the federal Fair Debt Collection Practices Act, 15 U.S.C. 1692e(3), by giving a false impression that an attorney was involved in the filing of those complaints, when in fact they were mass-produced.
The suit, Krug v. Forster, Garbus & Garbus, 10-cv-1844, touches on an inchoate area of law — namely, how much investigation an attorney must perform to determine the validity of an alleged debt before filing a collection suit.
"It's a new area and the case law hasn't developed yet," says the named plaintiff's lawyer, Philip Stern, head of a Maplewood firm.
A joint motion filed Monday in District Court in Newark seeks approval of the settlement, which calls for Forster Garbus to pay $7,500 to class members and $27,500 in legal fees.
The plaintiffs are debtors who were served with complaints filed by Forster Garbus on behalf of Arrow Financial Services in Special Civil Part in Cumberland County for a one-year period starting in April 2009.
Named plaintiff Karl Krug, of Millville, was alleged to have defaulted on a $4,947 credit card bill to Washington Mutual Bank. The bank sold the debt to Arrow Financial Services of Nile, Ill., which, in turn, retained Forster Garbus in an attempt to collect from Krug.
In April 2009, Forster Garbus sent Krug a dunning letter which stated, in part, that "at this time, no attorney with this firm has personally reviewed the particular circumstances of your account." In June of that year, a nonattorney at the firm left two phone messages on Krug's answering machine. On June 5, the firm sued Krug on behalf of Arrow. Partner Glen Garbus signed the complaint.
Krug retained Stern, who won dismissal of the collection case in April 2010 after Arrow was unable to present business records to show the debt was valid. The current suit was filed that month.
Stern says a ruling in the Eastern District of New York, a few months before Krug's suit was filed, was the first to hold that an attorney violated the FDCPA by filing a collections suit without anything more than a cursory inquiry into whether the debt is valid. In Miller v. Upton, Cohen & Slamowitz , 687 F. Supp. 2d 86 (E.D.N.Y. 2009), which stemmed from an alleged default on a Lord & Taylor charge account, the court rejected the lawyer's assertions that his general knowledge of credit practices at the retailer and its national collections counsel were a substitute for specific knowledge of an individual file.
Krug's complaint cited New Jersey Court Rule 1:4-8, which requires a lawyer signing a complaint to have read it and to have conducted a reasonable inquiry that the allegations of the case have factual support.
The suit also claimed that Forster Garbus placed telephone calls to class members that falsely conveyed the impression that the person calling was an attorney, and those calls failed to provide meaningful disclosure of the law firm's identity as caller or to disclose that the firm is attempting to collect a debt and that any information obtained will be used for that purpose — all in violation of the FDCPA.
Of the $7,500 payable to class members under the settlement, $2,500 is to go to Krug and the rest will be distributed among the roughly 200 class members, who stand to receive around $25 each. Stern says that although the recovery may seem modest, it's more than the class members would get as damages under the FDCPA if the case were tried.
The pool of $5,000 distributed to class members is greater than would be available if the case was tried, says Stern. The FDCPA limits recovery in such cases to the 1 percent of the defendant firm's net worth, but Forster Garbus agreed in the settlement to go over the 1 percent limit, says Stern. He is bound to keep the firm's net worth confidential.
Forster Garbus was represented in the case by Gregg Kahn of Wilson Elser in Newark, who did not return a call. Garbus, a named defendant, also did not return a call.

How Long Do Edibles Take to Kick In? Your Questions Answered
Nikolay Stoyanov March 11, 2020, 6:50 pm 2.3k Views 100 Votes 1 Comment
It's a fact: cannabis edibles have come a long way from the era of bootleg brownies.
Today, in many states where marijuana is legal, you can easily buy an entire basket, ranging from candies, gums, brownies, cookies, tinctures, and more; the list is endless. Of course, you can also make them in the confines of your house.
However, for most novices, the biggest question they ask before swallowing a piece of a cookie is how long it takes for edibles to kick in. More often than not, people complain about overeating and having extremely unpleasant effects, or not eating enough and then feeling nothing afterward.
How long before edibles really kick in?
I will say the answer to the above question isn't a straightforward one. There's no known universal time that works for everyone. Depending on what you're consuming, the amount of cannabis in the edible, as well as your metabolism, we can say there's an average time that edibles take to kick in based on what most people experience.
Average Time Edibles Take to Kick in
As mentioned, there's no reliable onset time for the marijuana 'high' to take effect. It varies from person to person, and mostly depends on the amount of cannabis in the portion you're eating, your metabolism, weight and many other factors like whether you're dosing on an empty stomach or not.
The universal average time, however, is anywhere from thirty minutes to a couple of hours. However, most people report feeling high after about 45 minutes. It takes about 2-3 hours for the edibles to be fully absorbed into the system- and this is when most people feel the full effects of the THC.
Most people, especially those who are new to cannabis, often become impatient when they eat a cookie and don't feel high right away. So they eat more or opt to try out more substantial doses, and that's when everything goes south.
All of a sudden, they start to feel as if the world is spinning, and everyone is against them. Overindulging very often results in the most unpleasant experiences – THC kicks in at double strength and takes forever to dissipate.
It's important to be aware of the late onset of the 'high' and limit the dosage to consume.
What's the Recommended Dosage to Take?
The best dosage for cannabis edibles is 10mg THC. But read the label keenly.
Some packages come with several doses of 10mg. If you buy a package that has 100mg, only eat a tenth of it. Otherwise, it could easily lead to disaster.
Beginners who have never taken edibles before should begin with 5mg THC or a mixture of both THC and CBD for a more mild effect.
What to Know Before Consuming Marijuana Edibles
Experts will tell you that it's best to start with a low dosage when consuming edibles. 5mg is the limit when starting out.
If it doesn't take effect after 2 hours, you can eat more. If you become impatient and eat more immediately, the effects will hit too fast and strong, and you will wish you hadn't even taken them at all.
Consuming Edibles on an Empty Stomach
There's a lot of hullaballoo over whether eating cannabis on an empty stomach makes you high faster – but there's no study that proves this claim. However, some reports found that eating marijuana when hungry can slow down your metabolism by up to 50%.
Other studies claimed that people who eat before consuming cannabis end up absorbing a higher concentration of THC and feel the effects faster and longer.
What's clear is that THC is fat-soluble and can remain in your body for up to 4 weeks. This means that if you eat a cookie while hungry, the THC won't have anything to bind to, and you won't be able to feel its full effects.
So, while this isn't conclusive, most people feel that eating edibles on a full stomach will help your body process more of the THC. As a matter of fact, eating fatty foods such as fries and pizza will give you a faster and stronger high.
So, if you've eaten a cookie and aren't feeling anything after 1 hour, you can consider eating something along those lines before you eat another edible.
One's metabolism is also a significant determinant of how quickly or slowly the 'high' takes before it comes into effect. That's why it's recommended to drink tea or coffee after consuming an edible because they naturally increase one's metabolism in the body.
Bottom-line
Edibles affect each person differently, so the best way to consume them is to start slow (5mg doses of THC) and wait at least 2 hours before consuming another dose. Soon enough, you'll find the perfect dosage that's just right for your body.

Il Santo Padre ha nominato Vescovo Ausiliare dell'arcidiocesi di Luxembourg (Lussemburgo) il Reverendo Monsignor Léon Wagener
Papa Francesco ha annunciato la convocazione di un Concistoro per il prossimo 5 ottobre – Mons. Jean-Claude Hollerich riceverà la berretta rossa

This statue was first mentioned on 8 December 1624 as P. Jacques Brocquart S.J. and students carried it in procession in front of the fortress walls of the city of Luxembourg. 1794 it was set up in the former Jesuit church. The statue, three-dimensional, polychrome linden wood, is 0.73 meter high and is from the type of the majestic Immaculata representations. She meets the pilgrim as clothed statue accordingly to a late medieval worship custom.
The Blessed Mother's statue stands at the centre of every year Marian pilgrimage called "Octave".
Restoration in 2008
In 500 hours of work, the Luxembourg restorer Muriel Prieur restored in 2008, the Statue of Consolatrix Afflictorum to its original condition. The restoration had become inevitable since the wood and the colours had suffered greatly over the centuries.
3 layers of paint that came from earlier restorations were removed in painstaking and meticulous work. The original colour was exposed, depending on the composition of the ablated layers, with microscope and scalpel or with chemicals. Muriel Prieur had to do a halt before a coat of recent paint because it attacked the face of the linden wood statue more strongly.
During the work, which together lasted with the preliminary investigations about 9 months to complete, interesting findings about the probable origin of the 73 cm high statue could be won. So the restorer was able to determine that the statue, which stands since 1624 in the centre of Marian pilgrimages, possibly originated towards the end of the 16th century. In addition, the style and the carving technique suggests that the sculptor came from the German-speaking country, and not from Belgium, as had long been assumed.
The restoration was financed with an anonymous donation of 25,000 Euros.

GOP Strives to Make Hate Groups Look Respectable
Mississippi Governor Haley Barbour
For good or for bad, you're judged by the company you keep, and that goes for the Republican Party and anyone else. But when the GOP is accused of cozying up to hate groups, they don't seem to distance themselves from the alleged affiliations, they embrace them. Sometimes Republicans go out of their way to demonstrate their approval of racist and homophobic organizations that we should all find objectionable.
Case in point: Haley Barbour, the Governor of Mississippi. Of the civil rights era, he said "I just don't remember it as being that bad," he told the Weekly Standard. "I remember Martin Luther King came to town, in '62. He spoke out at the old fairground and it was full of people, black and white." In Barbour's world, the races lived side by side during Jim Crow segregation, and the White Citizens' Council—known to many as the white collar Klan— was a force for good in his hometown of Yazoo City:
You heard of the Citizens Councils? Up north they think it was like the KKK. Where I come from it was an organization of town leaders. In Yazoo City they passed a resolution that said anybody who started a chapter of the Klan would get their ass run out of town. If you had a job, you'd lose it. If you had a store, they'd see nobody shopped there. We didn't have a problem with the Klan in Yazoo City.
The reality of these councils was far different, as neo-confederate expert Edward Sebesta documents in his Citizens' Council newspaper historical website. The councils were established as a direct response to the 1954 Brown v. Board of Education decision, to resist desegregation and maintain white supremacy in the South. An article in the October 1955 edition of The Citizens' Council entitled, "Mississippi Citizens' Councils Are Protecting Both Races" had this to say:
Citizens' Councils, 60,000 strong and growing fast, are mobilizing Mississippi to guard both whites and Negroes.
Their aim is to preserve separation of the races against assaults form the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, in alliance with the federal government. At the same time, they are dedicated to protect the rank and file of Negroes from the wrath of ruffian white people who may resort to violence.
And in an article called "Texans Will Fight To Preserve Segregation":
There's a rainbow of hope in the dark "integration" sky in Texas.
The courageous spirit of manhood which had been somewhat dulled by more than twenty years of imported propaganda, brought into this country by way of Washington, is re-asserting itself and definite steps are being taken to counter the worst blow directed against the South since the Civil War.
Following the Supreme Court's ruling, which applied only to certain Negro children in Virginia, South Carolina, Delaware, Kansas and the District of Columbia, the NAACP, composed partly of Negroes but mostly of rich white trash, saw a chance to put a fast one over. They gave the South the rush act, with their attorneys and representatives spilling out into each State and insisting that de-segregation was now the law of the land. They were about to get by with it when the people of Texas, as well as its officials waked up and went into action. …
The people of Texas, like those of the Deep South, have always been extremely fond of good Negroes….But in the final analysis and when the chips are down, they just don't go much for arrogant Mullatoes who come barging into the State from out of the East making threats…before rolling away in long black Cadillacs.…
While the matter is far from settled, it is now clear that Texas, along with other States in the South, will exhaust every legal resource available in resisting the attempt of a Marxist-conscious Supreme Court to bring about mongrelization of the white race by judicial ruling.
And a pamphlet from the Association of Citizens' Councils titled "Why Does Your Community Need a Citizens' Council?" referred to the NAACP as the "National Association for the Agitation of Colored People." "We will not be integrated. We are proud of our white blood and our white heritage of sixty centuries,' said the pamphlet. "We are certainly not ashamed of our traditions, our conservative beliefs, nor our segregated way of life."
Barbour seemed to backtrack from his comments praising the racist group, which is akin to getting a bucket of water after you just committed arson. After praising the Councils, he said the groups were "indefensible" and called segregation "a difficult and painful era for Mississippi."
Meanwhile, the GOP standard-bearers are taking sides in the latest battle between the Southern Poverty Law Center and the Family Research Council. The SPLC, a civil rights group based in Montgomery, Alabama, released a report called 18 Anti-Gay Groups and Their Propaganda. One of the groups named in the report is the Family Research Council, which is described by SPLC as a font of anti-gay propaganda that calls for the criminalization of homosexuality, and pushes false accusations linking gays to pedophilia. Tony Perkins, a former Louisiana state representative and the head of FRC, once paid $82,500 to use the mailing list of former Klan chieftain David Duke. Moreover, in 2001 Perkins gave a speech to the Council of Conservative Citizens, a white supremacist group that is the ideological heir to the White Citizens Councils of the 1950s and 1960s.
FRC is fighting back with a "Start Debating, Stop Hating" campaign. Not surprisingly, the Republican Party leaders are siding with the hate group. In a full-page ad in Politico and the Washington Examiner, FRC calls SPLC a "liberal fundraising machine." The ad also accuses the civil rights group of character assassination, and attacking groups that "uphold Judeo-Christian moral views, including marriage as the union of a man and a woman." Among the 150 conservative leaders—including 22 members of Congress— who signed the letter are Rep. Eric Cantor (R-VA), Rep. Steve King (R-IA), Rep. John Boehner (R-OH), Rep. Michelle Bachmann (R-MN), Sen, Jim DeMint (R-SC), Gov. Bobby Jindal (R-LA), Rep. Steve King (R-IA), and Virginia Attorney General Ken Cuccinelli. "It was a remarkable performance, given that it was precisely the maligning of entire groups of people — gays, lesbians, bisexuals and transgendered people — that caused the SPLC to list groups like the FRC," SPLC responded on its blog.
This comes as civil rights groups push for a federal review of curriculum changes made by the Republican-owned Texas Board of Education, including the removal of people of color in the textbooks, the watering down of the civil rights movement, and teaching slavery, Jefferson Davis and the Confederacy in a positive light. The groups claim the board is discriminating against black and Latino students, and failing to provide equal educational opportunities to these students.
Here's the deal: The GOP cannot have it both ways. They cannot take a stand in favor of hate groups—white supremacists, neo-confederates, and homophobes—and take offense when their critics call them out for it. Moreover, they cannot rewrite history and attack civil rights. Since the Goldwater presidential campaign and Nixon's Southern Strategy, the Republicans made a deal with the Devil. And the Devil's in the details. Appealing to disaffected Southern whites on states' rights and skin-color solidarity, the GOP became the Dixiecrats. Tax cuts became code word for the N-word, because it was understood that blacks would get hurt worse than whites, as Southern Strategy architect Lee Atwater bluntly noted.
On one level, the Republican Party would whitewash the image of their base, not to mention America's racially-charged past and their role in it. And yet, on another level, they are so extreme that they embrace their intolerance with no shame. The GOP embraces the white-Christian-nationalist spirit of the White Citizens' Councils.
They present themselves as the protectors of society from the enemy, the "other" who threatens to destroy white Christian values—whether Latino immigrants, Muslims, or gay marriage. We saw this in George H.W. Bush's Willie Horton ad, and we saw this in Sharron Angle's anti-immigration ads.
For now, in this bad economy, the GOP is living on borrowed time and scapegoats. But the clock is ticking and the nation is browning, and hate will not grow their base.

How can a kind person of the name Love appear to be his own antonym?
Good points all but , the on going gutting of education by the gop means many Americans are *so* ignorant (NOTE : ignorant is quite different from stupid) that they actually believe the lies and hate spew the gop , fox news et all are saying with every day .
I hope you're right but the gop was just voted in by mindless haters who cannot see they they've supplied the rope the rich 2 % will hang us all with .
Douglas Andrew Hanlon says
sois it just like when the democrats spew hate against rep.allen west from straying off the "if your black you have to be a liberal democrat"plantation
or is it a different kind of ignorant?(nice that you feel you have to explain the difference between stupid and ignorant to your readers….not that i blame you…after all they are victims of the liberal public school system)
GraciesDaddy says
"On one level, the Republican Party would whitewash the image of their base…"
They don't have to "whitewash" anything… their robes 'n' hoods take care of that.
hey gracies dad….how does giving illegal immigrants help the very people you democrats say you are all for helping?If 10+ million illegal immigrants are adding to the legal workforce how does that make finding a job,especially one that pays the minimum wage,any easier for the "little people" all you pontificating dems you love?i would love an answer to this question.
adding more people to an economy that is already in the longest high unemployment period since the great depression is helpful how to legal americans and legal immigrants that are unemployed right now?

View Full Version : The Secret to Gifting!
DO NOT GIFT YOUR FRIENDS RANDOM STUFF!
The trick is not to just gift anything to everyone, but wait to see who has requested materials from you. It's a bit more involved this way, but you help your neighbors a lot more.
By the way, if you don't know how to request materials from your friends: Click on a building you are constructing. When it tells you that you need a certain material click to ask a friend. It's that simple.
the only problem with this is that I have some nbrs that send me 6 request for different items every couple of hours. this knocks out my other requests.
Also I wrote down everyone from yesterday and what they wanted and this morning, most of them sent request for different items later.
I have been going to nbrs game and seeing what buildings they have. Also i try to gift back what I get from someone. If nbr has no buildings I give energy.
I am waiting one shingle and gave not gotten yet.
Just store what you get and you will need it at some point.
Haha thanks. I didn't know you needed the materials till after accepting 20 3-energy-refills. Guess I gotta wait till tomorrow!
Yeah good point to make. I realised this within the first hour or so when I was trying to construct a couple of buildings. I think I'll do as sehana and send via requests until a certain time and then send energy. That energy runs out quickly doesn't it?!
That energy runs out quickly doesn't it?!
Yea it does, it's probably the only thing that annoys me right now.

This miniature 3D-printed NES can actually play games
TJ Owens provides plans for you to make one of your own, but warns you to "expect frustration."

You can build a teensy working classic Nintendo console—but it won't be easy.
Engineer and Thingiverse user TJ Owens has created a miniature replica of the classic NES gaming system using a 3D printer and a barebones Raspberry Pi computer. In the instructional writeup, Owens warns that "this project is not for the faint of heart. Expect frustration." The best part? It actually plays games.
Inspired by the RetroPie project, an effort to turn the Raspberry Pi into a dedicated system for playing vintage video games, Owens' miniature NES makes a wonderfully suitable housing for nostalgic delight. After printing the case components in PLA plastic, he sanded and painted them to give the creation the classic gray and black look that so many adults remember from their childhood. There's just one major physical difference: This NES is tiny.
Debuting in the United States in 1985, Nintendo's original breakthrough gaming system occupied a footprint of 10 by 8 inches, about the same as an old VCR. Owens' modern reimagining of the device is a fraction of the size, just 3 by 2 inches. It stays true to the aspect ratios of the original device.
Here are pictures of the finished product and the electronic guts contained inside, though the lack of a comparison object makes it difficult to establish the small scale of Owens' creation, this thing fits in the palm of your hand.

Of course the only question that matters is whether or not it can play any games. The Raspberry Pi computing platform is certainly robust enough to run old NES titles on its processor, but Owens will take things step further than that. He plans to make miniature NES cartridges that use RFID tags to queue up the appropriate game to play from the computer's memory.
No dust-blowing required.
