What You Wont Hear At Tonights Debate » Presidential Kabuki Dance
What You Wont Hear At Tonights Debate
October 22, 2012 by Bob LivingstonUPI
Tonight is the final installment of the Kabuki performance called the American Presidential debates. While the ideologues, talking heads, spinmeisters and party hacks get all hot and bothered over what is said in their efforts to reinforce the false left/right paradigm, what is not said and, in fact, never discussed in the two single-party choreographed gab fests inaccurately called debates is much more telling.
So here is my (partial) list of things you wont hear but should from the mouths of one or the other of the two puppets vying for the highest office in the land.
Despite what weve been saying for months, Presidents do not create jobs in the private sector. We can advocate policies that either get government out of the way of job creation or stymie job creation. We can foster an environment that is friendly to job creators and encourages job creation. But there is no way I can say of a private sector job, You didnt build that; I did. I would like to tell you that I can make you a job, but I would be lying. Such honesty would be refreshing but no doubt misunderstood by the voting public, which has come to believe in an all-powerful government.
On my first day in office, Im going to give a copy of the Constitution with Article I, Section 8 highlighted to each of the 435 members of Congress and tell them that any legislation that does not fit into the parameters of the 17 enumerated powers contained therein will be vetoed, even if it means reducing the power and perks I would enjoy as President. The Presidency has essentially become a four- or eight-year monarchy.
The Founders purposely divided government into three branches (and further divided one of those branches in two) in order to keep it out of the hands of a despot, an oligarchy or a plutocracy. As James Madison wrote in Federalist No. 58: An elective despotism was not the government we fought for; but one in which the powers of government should be so divided and balanced among the several bodies of magistracy as that no one could transcend their legal limits without being effectually checked and restrained by the others. In Federalist No. 10 he wrote: [T]he great security against a gradual concentration of the several powers in the same department consists in giving to those who administer each department the necessary constitutional means and personal motives to resist encroachment of the others. The Congress has abdicated its authority to the President on the issues of legislation, the Federal bureaucracy and, more importantly, war powers.
The National Defense Authorization Act and the USA Patriot Act are unConstitutional and violate the 1st, 4th, 5th, 6th and 8th Amendments and should be repealed immediately. I will do that. Self-explanatory.
Government is too big, too oppressive and too totalitarian. Im going to do all I can within the bounds of the Constitution to reduce the size and scope of government as quickly as possible. Some of the things I do will be unpopular, but I will do them without concern for my future political prospects. A number of Federal agencies could and should be eliminated immediately. Many of them duplicate functions and overlap. These could be scaled back immediately with no impact on government services that people have to come to rely upon. The Department of Energy, formed into its current iteration under President Jimmy Carter in 1977 to formulate a comprehensive national energy plan, is a failed entity that should be immediately abolished. Other failed and bloated entities include the Environmental Protection Agency and the departments of Homeland Security, Education, Housing and Urban Development, Commerce and Interior. Some of the functions of these agencies could be rolled into other departments; some would be delegated to the States where they belong. Unaccountable Federal bureaucracies lead to wasteful programs like the $27 million spent teaching Moroccans how to make pottery. Think for a moment: In 2000,
President Bill Clinton submitted a budget of $1.8 trillion. The Federal governments 2012 budget was $3.7 trillion. An immediate cut of $1 trillion would put the United States at 2006 spending levels. Do you recall seeing vast numbers of Americans going wanting in 2006?
We should not be talking about how were going to pay for tax cuts. That is the wrong conversation. We should be talking about how were going to relieve the individual tax burden and eliminate unConstitutional government, including the Federal Reserve. Income taxes are not about funding government. As Ben Bernanke has shown, the Federal Reserve can print money to infinity. The Federal government does not need income taxes to function. Income taxes are simply dossiers on American citizens. The unConstitutional and not-Federal Federal Reserve should be shuttered, and we should return to sound money.
Our meddling in the Mideast has made things worse, not better. I will bring the troops home beginning on day one and re-evaluate our defense needs and protect our borders. The United States has been meddling in Mideast/Persian/North African affairs for more than 75 years. Can anyone honestly say that our campaigns of political intervention, in which we have set up puppet governments and brought them down again, and/or bombing and war campaigns have made Americans safer? The U.S. military should be used for national defense, not Pax Americana or nation building. U.S. troops should not be patrolling and being killed on the borders of Pakistan, Afghanistan, Iraq and Syria while U.S. borders go unprotected.
I will immediately end all foreign aid programs. America should not be propping up dictators or providing military defenses for other countries. It does not fall within the Constitution.
I know this is not going to make me any friends in Washington and, in fact, will make me many enemies but the way to begin removing control of the Congress from special interests is to repeal the 17th Amendment. I will make this my priority from day one. When Senators are appointed by the State legislators and subject to removal by the same they are beholden to the people of their States, not special interests. Thats what the Founders intended and what the system should return to.
We are both rich guys. Neither one of us really understands what you in the middle class go through each day as you struggle with your job, try to keep your clunker running, balance your checkbook, get your kids to school, go to PTA meetings, coach Little League, take care of grandmas health needs, help her buy and take her medicines, etc., because we have servants who help with that stuff. But I vow to meet with you as often as possible in your cities and towns so I can hear your concerns rather than continue to insulate myself within the halls of power where I am constantly told by staff how wonderful I am. Self-explanatory.
We both have accounts in the Cayman Islands. We do this because, just like you, we want to keep as much of our money as possible. So we hire armies of expensive accountants to find tax shelters. This is proof our tax system is broken. Once we close the Fed and return to sound money, some form of taxation will be required. I will work with Congress to reduce and finally eliminate as many taxes as possible and make the tax system friendly and fair so that people like you who cant afford expensive armies of accountants to help you find tax shelters can keep more of your money just like us rich guys do. Self-explanatory.
If we dont get a handle on the Federal government, spending and inflation are going to send our economy into hyperinflation. Politicians try to hide this because it allows them to continue spending with impunity which makes it easier for them to line their pockets. Because our government has become a fascist corporatocracy, the prospects of any fixes are not good.
What I will try to do will be met with much resistance. So you should prepare for hyperinflation by stockpiling food and water and weapons and ammunition and gold and silver as quickly as possible. The elites would never say this; therefore, few will be prepared when it comes.

Giant "Flying Creatures" Sighted in Las Cruces, New Mexico and San Antonio, Texas
Sightings of Mysterious Giant Bird Continue in San Antonio
Joe Conger, KENS 5 Eyewitness News
Photo: Right:Teratorn, left, Pteranodon. Both Possibles from witness descriptions.
Loch Ness has its monster. Does San Antonio have one, too?
Strange sightings of a huge flying creature have been reported as recently as six months ago. Is it a monster or myth?
"We were afraid that it would come at us. So we stayed in the car till it passed this way," witness Guadalupe Cantu III said.
"This thing's all feathers, all black. Much bigger than me. It looked at us. It had very stooped-up shoulders."
The beast has been spotted from the Rio Grande Valley to the mountains of New Mexico.
"(It) looked like what was possibly two people standing on top of a mountain up there," said David Zander, who saw the monster in New Mexico. "Something that big ... I guess it kinda makes you feel like it could come over and carry you off if it wanted to."
San Antonio's Ken Gerhard has written a book on these dark birds as big as planes, with wingspans from 15 to 20 feet. Native Americans called them thunderbirds: depicted in their art, their flapping wings were said to cause explosive noises.
"What's interesting is that the reports of these giant, raptor-like birds do continue into modern times," said Gerhard, a cryptozoologist. Cryptozoology is the study of and search for legendary animals to prove their existence.
He says there's solid evidence something is overhead. "I believe there's a good chance that a lot of large, prehistoric animals, if you will, remain undiscovered by modern science," he said.
So what could the giant birds be? Some witness sketches eerily resemble prehistoric creatures, like the pteronadon of 160 million years ago.
However, Gerhard theorizes it could be a creature that's a little less extinct — if that's possible — a pteratorn. "These are the surviving ancestors of modern condors and vultures. They lived up until 6,000 years ago, we know for sure, in parts of North America," Gerhard said. "In fact, over 100 specimens have been recovered from the La Brea tar pits in California."
But critics have another take: human error.
"Was it really as big as he thought it was?" asks Ben Radford, editor of "Skeptical Inquirer" magazine. "When there's enough information to come to a determination, I've always found an explanation for it."
Radford says the eye can be deceived.
"Eyewitness testimony is very unreliable. And so it's hard for a person to tell — even experts to tell — 'Is that thing I'm seeing out there, is it small and nearby? Or is it huge and farther away?' " Radford said.
But in one sighting in San Antonio, three people gave similar accounts, witnessing the same fly-by of a huge, winged creature.
A trio of South Side teachers traveling a deserted road had their cars "buzzed" by the monsters, and it made the papers in February 1976.
In fact, for decades papers throughout South Texas have chronicled the flying creatures. In the age of the Internet, the reports continue, like this one from a recent sighting near Huebner and Babcock roads.
"The creature was large, at least 6 feet," the report reads. "I don't know if I ever want to see another one." "If I were outside there walking, it would've gone after me," witness Cantu said.
Cantu believes most sightings go unreported because people are afraid of the ridicule they could face.
However, he says a face-to-face encounter with the creature would be much worse. "I think if you do see it, then you might wind up missing," Cantu said.
Las Cruces Sightings, Cont...
"In comparison a 20 foot wingspan would truly be a monster and something undocumented by science," cryptozoologist Ken Gerhard said. "I believe what Dave Zander may have seen are surviving teratorns."
Gerhard has made a career studying prehistoric birds. "What's interesting the reports of these giant raptor-like birds to continue into modern times," he said. "We seem to have a large concentration of them here in the Southwest particularly in the Rio Grande Valley of Texas as well as New Mexico and parts of Arizona." Gerhard documented many of these strange reports from all over the globe in the book "Big birds! Modern sightings of flying monsters."
The book includes sightings in different clusters over the past 30 years.
In 1972 in Maxwell in northeastern New Mexico, Ronald Monteleone of Trinidad, Colo., reported what he thought was a pterodactyl flying out of an arroyo.
In Lordsburg in the 1800s locals talked constantly about the sightings of pterosaurs. And a picture circulated the country in 1890 out of Tombstone, Ariz., but it's never been considered totally legitimate.
"Other eyewitnesses are describing specifically giant feathered dark birds with an enormous wing span," Gerhard said.
Gerhard said his research falls into two different descriptions from witnesses. Some said the birds look like the prehistoric pterodactyl while others, like the creatures described by Zander, resemble the ancient thunderbird from Native American mythology.
You can find thunderbird images atop many totem poles and also carved into the lava rocks of the Petroglyph National Monument in Albuquerque. Similar images are found in petroglyphs all over North America.
According to legend, the thunderbird is said to have a wingspan the length of two canoes with the ability to deafen people with the sound of its flapping wings.
"It is definitely a real animal, according to the native peoples that lived here," Gerhard said. "It's not necessarily a legendary animal."
However a word of caution comes from folks like Ben Radford, managing editor of the Skeptical Inquirer magazine, which applies scientific reason and evidence to extraordinary claims.
"There is a desire to link modern sightings with these Native American stories but the problem is they're not necessarily the same thing," Radford said.
Radford said believes the eyewitnesses saw something: "Ultimately a lot of these sightings, whether it's these monsters, these creatures, Chupacabras, what have you, these come down to eyewitness testimony," Radford said. "They're stories, there's nothing wrong with stories, but they're just not good evidence."
Radford has debunked numerous stories about the Loch Ness monster, crop circles and Bigfoot.
He said he relies on evidence.
"You don't have bones, teeth," he continued. "You don't have any hard evidence, so you look to these stories, you look to these myths.
"We know from many scientific experiments people are notoriously unreliable about estimating things." And in this case, Radford said he thinks Zander and the other witnesses in Texas overestimated the birds' size.
What makes the reports intriguing is that most experts agree scientists have yet to discover every species on the planet and really have no idea what is out there: "I believe there's a good chance that a number of large prehistoric animals remain undiscovered by modern science." Gerhard said.
Radford readily concedes there are species yet to be discovered, but... "Do I think there are giant animals and birds and creatures out there?" he said. "No."
For his part, Zander continues to keep his eyes on the skies but hasn't had a repeat visit from the creatures. The one experience has stayed with him.
"I feel honored to have seen the one sighting," he said. "I had if they're still up there still living up there and thriving, I say awesome, more power to them."
Today's KRQE.com Web question asked, "Do you think there are prehistoric species still roaming the earth?" Sixty-four percent of respondents said yes; 36 percent said no.:

This is certainly possible, but deliberate emasculation seems more likely to me. Seems this would be the one more likely to be known, whereas the other might not be known if you didn't go around telling folks.Chris wrote:Since posting this, I have read a commentary (or footnote) that hints that the man could have been BORN with mutilated/deformed genitals.

This is the same information I have found on the manuscripts -- found earliest in the 6th century, but is not in Sinaiticus (4th century), Vaticanus (4th century), Alexandrinus (5th century).William Thornton wrote:Verse 37 is not in any extant early MSS including Sinaiticus, Vaticanus, and papyri. One source said the earliest MSS is 6th century. Later addition as an attempt to expand on the eunuch's baptism. In a small group I'd attempt to explain the omission at some length. In a sermon just a sentence or two.
8. But again: Whom did Philip preach to the eunuch of the queen of the Ethiopians, returning from Jerusalem, and reading Esaias the prophet, when he and this man were alone together? Was it not He of whom the prophet spoke: "He was led as a sheep to the slaughter, and as a lamb dumb before the shearer, so He opened not the month? ""But who shall declare His nativity? for His life shall be taken away from the earth." [Philip declared] that this was Jesus, and that the Scripture was fulfilled in Him; as did also the believing eunuch himself: and, immediately requesting to be baptized, he said, "I believe Jesus Christ to be the Son of God."
With this evidence I don't think we should be so quick to omit this part of the text.43. That he who believes can immediately obtain (i.e., pardon and peace)
In the Acts of the Apostles: Lo, here is water; what is there which hinders me from being baptized? Then said Philip, If you believe with all your heart, you may.
That same Philip, who had baptized the men, and the Holy Ghost had not come upon them, unless the Apostles had met together and laid their hands upon them, baptized the officer, that is, the eunuch of queen Candace, who had worshipped in Jerusalem, and returning thence was reading in his chariot Isaiah the Prophet, and understood it not. Philip being admonished went up to his chariot, explained the Scripture, unfolded the faith, preached Christ. The eunuch believed on Christ, and said when they came unto a certain water, See water, who does hinder me to be baptized? Philip said to him, Do you believe in Jesus Christ? He answered, I believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God. Immediately he went down with him into the water. [bold emphasis mine, rlv]
William Thornton wrote:My Greek NT gives the omission of the verse an "A" meaning "virtually certain". I don't think that there's much new on it in regard to external evidence and it's rather obvious why later writers sought to insert the verse. That the TR includes it means that there are a good many apologists for its inclusion, evidence is secondary.
Interesting question...been a while since I looked into it.
I would not be surprised or blame anyone for taking the word of scholars that weigh the manuscript evidence above mine or others who question them. But I would add that Cyprian's reference does not seem to be indirect at all. He mentions the Acts of the Apostles and quotes the statement of Philip that appears in what we know as verse 37. That's fairly direct. Unless one shows this is a later invention or addition to the writings of Cyprian, considering the date, it ought to carry some weight. I wonder what these same scholars that say omitting the verse is "virtually certain" say about the mentions of this statement by Irenaeus, Cyprian, Augustine and others? Anyone know? Seems they have probably addressed it somewhere. Another line of questioning re apocryphal texts and pseudepigrapha is whether there are any of them that actually include what Irenaeus, Cyprian and Augustine are quoting?William Thornton wrote:Haruo, my confidence would have to be with the critical text and the scholars that weigh the MSS evidence. Seems to me that indirect references from early authors, some of which are not explicit, would be weighed less than inclusion in actual MSS. Even the omitted verse itself has quite a number of variations in extant, later MSS. The explanation that later copyist so felt a need to expand on the eunuch's baptism seems quite plausible. Besides, very early on there were many apocryphal texts and pseudepigrapha circulating and I think I recall that Irenaeus would use some of these.
Rvaughn wrote:William, you said that "indirect references from early authors, some of which are not explicit, would be weighed less than inclusion in actual MSS." I think that is the case. That doesn't mean they have no weight at all. You also state that "mention by one of the Fathers of a text is by definition indirect." Well, I suppose that is according which definition/connotation of indirect you are using. I think most understand and agree that manuscripts are primary sources and that quotes by church fathers are secondary sources. But that was not my point. I am using country preacher language rather than scholarly lingo, because I am one and not the other. Nevertheless, Cyprian did make a reference (the act of mentioning something) which was direct. In a straightforward way he attributed the record of Philip's words to the Acts of the Apostles.
The most obvious conclusion from that "direct indirect reference" is that Cyprian had or had access to a copy of the Acts of the Apostles that contained this reading. That is not the only conclusion, but seems most likely to me. Not sure that there has been any general denial of this. Other possibilities might be that the copy of the Acts that Cyprian had access to had this added but it wasn't originally there in Luke's writing; that Cyprian misquoted or mis-remembered or misrepresented what the Acts said; that this writing of Cyprian had those words added to it later. Perhaps others I haven't thought of. My idea is that Cyprian, Irenaeus, Augustine and others who mention this text were working from copies that had those words. The difficulty with this conclusion, of course, is, if so, why did it then disappear from the majority of extant manuscripts?
I don't own A Textual Commentary on the Greek New Testament by Bruce Metzger, but some comments I found online suggest that he discusses Irenaeus quoting part of the Eunuch's confession of faith. Anyone have access to this?
Of course, we aren't talking about canonizing some new verse. I'm slow to change, and don't consider having sufficient reason to do so. It is found in Greek mss in the 6th century; is a reading known to exist well before then; has been in English Bibles since Wycliffe of 1382; was found in most older "Reformation" Bibles such as Luther's Bible, Louis Segond, La Reina Valera, and so forth; and seems to make a cleaner reading of what one would expect in such a text. None of this proves it is in Luke's original autograph, but it takes more for me to make a change than what I have seen.William Thornton wrote:The references by the church fathers aren't sufficient in themselves to canonize the text.
And verse 27 and 28 say that the eunuch had come to Jerusalem to worship and he was returning.The meaning is, not that they should be debarred from the public worship of the true God, as the phrase sometimes signifies, for that privilege was granted to all nations indiscriminately, provided they renounced idolatry, Exodus 12:48; Leviticus 22:18; Numbers 9:14.

WASHINGTON (MarketWatch) — Home prices rose in April as the spring selling season got underway, even as annual growth skidded, dropping to the slowest year-over-year pace in 13 months, according to data released Tuesday morning.
S&P/Case-Shiller's price barometer tracking 20 cities showed that year-over-year price growth hit 10.8% in April — a fast pace but down sharply from annual growth of 12.4% in March and a recent peak of 13.7% in November.
"House-price inflation is easing to more sustainable levels," Andrew Grantham, an economist at CIBC World Markets, wrote in a research note.
Limited inventories have been exerting upward pressure on prices over the past year. But a tough winter, as well as recent inventory expansions and dropping affordability, are all putting a damper on California's ultra-hot markets and elsewhere. Among the 20 cities, 19 saw annual growth taper in April.
Although homeowners don't love slowing appreciation, cooler price growth may encourage more buyers to enter the market. Looking forward, economists expect home prices to continue to slow down as inventories expand. A report on Monday showed that the number of existing homes on the market rose last month to the highest level in almost two years.
Gennadiy Goldberg, U.S. strategist at TD Securities, expects home-price growth to slow to a range of 6% to 8% by the end of 2014. Despite such as drop, owners would still be gaining equity, supporting the greater economy.
"A more gradual pace of home price appreciation should continue to lift more homeowners out of negative equity, albeit at a slightly slower pace," Goldberg wrote.
While the housing market needs more work, there has been some definite improvement in recent quarters as home prices rose. More than 3.5 million homes regained equity over the past year, helping to narrow the number of underwater properties by almost half since late 2009.
Also Tuesday, Case-Shiller reported that its monthly gauge of home prices rose 1.1% in April, a second consecutive gain as the spring selling season got underway, with all 20 tracked cities posting higher prices. After seasonal adjustments, home prices among the 20 cities rose 0.2% in April, compared with 1.2% in March.
Elsewhere Tuesday, the Federal Housing Finance Agency, which tracks deals involving mortgages backed by Fannie Mae
Looking broadly at the housing market, a weak first quarter is likely to ding the annual sales tally for 2014, dragging it below last year's result. Economists are concerned that the market remains slow, and had expected low interest rates to spur demand. On Monday, a senior Treasury official said that the U.S. needs to see housing and construction bounce back more for the country to break through to the next level of the recovery.

The R-C Morning Report
An 18-year-old who was placed on probation after admitting a string of vehicle burglaries in Indian Hills in July 2012 is in district court this morning on a probation violation hearing. Nathan Centano faces a three-year prison sentence if Judge Michael Gibbons vacates his probation.
The numbers issued Saturday by the National Weather Service confirm that January was a dry month, with Minden receiving just under a quarter of its average moisture for the month, and Markleeville getting 10 percent. Where it counts, at the top of the mountain, snow telemetry shows Ebbetts Pass got a fifth of its average moisture while Monitor Pass just cracked a third. The good news is that the cold kept gains from December in the ice box putting us at 97 percent for the Carson Basin so far this year.
There won't be much help for the water picture until the end of the week when snow returns to the forecast. Today will be mostly sunny with a high temperature near 55 degrees and the wind calm.

Hello I'm Cornelius, one of the partners at L – P: Archaeology. I've been doing commercial archaeology for 25 years now, and I know that the following short story will be very familiar to a lot of you, but anyone who has never been involved in a trenching evaluation be warned- this rollercoaster ride of thrills, despair and elation is not for the faint hearted. Some images may contain brickearth.
As described in my earlier post, we are currently conducting a 5% sample evaluation below a car-park in Egham, Surrey. First thing this morning we broke the tarmac on a fresh new trench, full of possibilities. We started to machine away the modern overburden deposits below the surface, taking care to avoid the large water pipe we knew to be in the trench. As our very skilled machine driver was doing this I got a call from another site.
51 miles away to the south lies the lovely house of Brambletye in Keston. An extension is currently being built on the house, which involves digging some small but deep footings. As the house lies next to the Scheduled Ancient Monument of Keston Roman Tombs, even very small scale work needs to be watched closely, so I leave the trench in the capable hands of my colleague Mike and zoom off down the M25.
When I get to Brambletye the crew have a small 3-ton digger ready, and have soon dug the footing. There is absolutely nothing in it but natural clay, with not even a stray sherd of Roman pot in the topsoil. My disappointment is offset by a very fine cup of tea, and then back to Egham to look at the trench.
In my absence Mike has cleaned and recorded the trench beautifully. A single linear feature in the trench has been sectioned, and is clearly a wall footing of early 20th century origin- possibly the wall of the doctors surgery we were told about by the very helpful staff at Egham Museum, who were kind enough to show us their collection of old maps. There is no other archaeology visible in the trench, so I survey it using a Smartrover GPS system and we fill it back in. I lock up the site and head home to write up the days results. Which are that I have driven about 150 miles, shifted a few hundred tons of earth and found nothing of archaeological interest whatsoever.
But it was mostly sunny, and I was out in the fresh air, and I got a close look at a very cool Roman tomb complex. And the tea was very good.
Altogether a fine day.

Welcome to the place where cowboy culture meets the coastal lifestyle, a wonderful slice of Queensland that's unlike anywhere else. Starting at the southern end of the Great Barrier Reef and straddling the Tropic of Capricorn, the region covers a short length of coast lined with white-sand beaches and stretches inland through the rural centre of Rockhampton (Australia's beef capital) into central Queensland. Just 15km offshore is beautiful Great Keppel Island, a place where the sand is so clean it squeaks underfoot.
Dive into the Southern Great Barrier Reef, discover the charms of country Queensland or marvel at incredible natural wonders. Click here to discover more things to do in the Capricorn Region.
In a relatively small area you'll find a remarkable diversity of national parks. Walk through ancient rainforests, hike sandstone gorges, splash in crystal-clear waterfalls, explore 400-million-year-old caves and look out for ancient rock paintings.
One of the natural wonders of the world lies just off the Capricorn coast. The Southern Great Barrier Reef has stunning islands, white-sand beaches and great snorkelling and diving.
See 70 species of native animals as well as exotic creatures, rainforest and outback exhibits, and conservation projects at the Rockhampton Zoo. It's free of charge and open from 8am daily.
Unearth a gem in Rubyvale's sapphire mine, tour The Willows Gemfields or pan for gold at Mount Morgan.
From historic towns to secluded islands, there's no shortage of places to visit in Capricorn.
One of Queensland's most charming rural centres, Rockhampton (or Rocky as the locals call it) is known for its beef, classic country pubs and good old-fashioned rodeo.
The gateway to the Capricorn Coast and Southern Great Barrier Reef, Yeppoon is an oversized village set along a sparkling esplanade and home to great restaurants and boutiques.
Thirty minutes off the coast from Yeppoon, Great Keppel Island's 17 white sand beaches are fringed with coral reefs and its lush forested interior is teeming with native birdlife.
The perfect private island escape, Pumpkin Island sits 14km off the coast of Yeppoon. It's made for swimming, kayaking, paddleboarding or just swinging in a hammock.
What started out as a holiday with friends many years ago, Pumpkin Island has since become my happy place for our family to escape city life and get lost in this simple yet stunning (and private) island oasis that we can rent all to our selves. Cheryl Walson

For the young men, the more dangerous and thrilling the sport is, the more interest they show. The obvious example is the racing sport, which is hailed the most dangerous and thrilling one. A great many young people swoon over it. What's more, a host of pretty girls also love it. Perhaps, they see the excitement, high speed and thrill in it. But during the sport, the news about accident relevant to racing car is not less common. On the contrary, some hurt are extraordinarily serious, even life-threatening. This more or less scales down the enthusiasm of the young about the racing sport. Months ago, Airwheel pushed out a type of protection tool, intended for the racing sport. That is Airwheel racing helmet C8. This is the third smart helmet by Airwheel, but it is revolutionary.
Why does the release of Airwheel C8 relieve the awkward situation of racing car? Because Airwheel full face helmet C8 not only ensures the joy and thrill of racing car, but also it protects the drivers from getting hurt. It completed sweeps away the trade-off of racing sport. With the advent of C8, the racing sport is no longer a dangerous one as before. More and more young people go for it with ease. This furthers the development of racing sports.
If Airwheel intelligent racing helmet C8 is confined to the protection, it is taken that it cannot be that popular as now. Airwheel C8 is equipped with a high-definition camera.

Many people take photos of pretty views and post them online for the likes from their friends and relatives.

5 am, outside the Conrad Hotel Chelsea I come across a well-dressed young man wearing a huge Rolex and very expensive hand made shoes, lying unconscious on the pavement. I lean over him and ask him if he's alright. Nothing. He's breathing okay and there are no signs of injury, I conclude, like me, he's pissed. I call again, this time louder and shake him on the shoulder; he sort of stirs but isn't responding. I'm tired and dawn is breaking, I can't leave a man down like this, so I slap him, hard, once across his face. He leaps to his feet and stands unsteadily on the pavement trying to focus on me. 'You should be more careful where you sleep' I say before walking off. Saying nothing the young man stumbles off in the opposite direction. What an ungrateful little fuck.
I spent yesterday in the flat recovering, after eating the biggest kipper in the world and the Grand Prix, Myfwt came over and we lay on the couch watching TV. The hangover wasn't as bad as it should've been, though it took a couple of glasses of liberated champagne in the evening to finally see it off.
It had been quite an intense weekend. Jamie came over on Friday night. He's one of my closest mates, we'd not seen each other in a while so before we'd even started we both knew the score. We got to the pub at 8-ish it was fucking packed out with Rugby types watching the Rugby. My desire to drink ale drove us through a thick wall of shouting men to a seething bar. If it wasn't for the fact I was a regular I would've been stood for at least another 10 minutes before I was served. So bad was it that the first 2 rounds Jamie and I doubled up. We sat in the garden in relative peace, smoking and laughing about disgusting things. At some point a bunch of fireworks went off, we staggered out before midnight and went to the Lebanese café for some food. After a session of Dio period Black Sabbath and some more beer we finally turned in.
I woke up to the sound of Jamie farting, startling volume, which I countered with a very long controlled emission that was compromised only by my amusement. We had breakfast and watched Saturday Kitchen whilst we sobered up. As we'd been on beer all night the aftermath wasn't that bad, by lunchtime Jamie and I were both safe enough to move the day on. I hit Sainsbury in a military strike, in and out in 30 minutes, a personal record. At 4pm I began to prepare for the evenings horror by taking the clippers to my balls. Every few months I'll clip the hedge, I don't want my clackers looking like David Blunkett, nor do I like half my lad buried up to its waist in pubes, besides it's more comfortable, hygienic. Grade 2 for the top half, grade 1 for the clockweights. I was just finishing off the latter, when on an upstroke I managed to snag some of my scrote in the gnashing teeth of the clippers. I yelped. It hurt rather. A lot of blood appeared in a worrying short period of time and I decided that I mustn't faint, it was quite a hard decision as it was awfully red. I may have admitted in the past in this very blog to nicking the bag once before, that was nothing in comparison to this. After I'd calmed down and examined the area in more detail, I spied, to my horror, a 2 cm strip of ballskin hanging down like a dork. I had no option but to clean my nail scissors and undertake surgery on my self. In one clean and relatively pain free 'snip' a part of me was flung into the sink and washed away with a sneer.
I took a hot bath after the blood had subsided. When I got out the bath I checked myself, all was good. Then I towelled myself dry and hit the spot I'd forgotten to ignore, instantly there was blood everywhere. This time it took half an hour to stem the flow. Even as I type this I'm acutely aware of my healing wound.
I arrived by cab at the Albert Hall for 6.15, suited, booted, groomed and annoyed. I met my colleagues and we went off for pre-concert drinks. I was shoving champagne down my neck as fast as I could without it spilling out of my nose. Being drunk wasn't an option. I had a total of 3 hours of misery ahead save a 20-minute break in the middle. Now, I'm not going to criticise the Proms music, I'm sure it's excellent, I just don't happen to like classical music, it leaves me cold for I rock. What I am happy to fucking moan about are, on the whole, the awful (last night) audience. This is particularly problematic in the second half when the 'fun' takes place. 'Fun' being letting off balloons that make a 'funny noise'. The reaction from the audience is staggering, as if they were all suddenly 5-year-old school children who'd never seen a balloon before. The interval drinks were having the desired effect though and in the latter half I was able to engage with Danny Boy (wonderful lyrics) and Jerusalem (I like William Blake) before all the jingoistic nationalistic stuff regurgitates itself out of the guts of the Victorian Empire where we enslaved nations and gave the darkies what for. I've not decided if this part is just awful or actually offensive.
At last it finished, I popped out for a quick burn with a colleague and we went back in for the after show party, as we were going up the stairs a fight broke out among 5 people, not one a day under 80. An old man with a stick holding an old woman with mild Parkinson's, who also had a stick, pushed an old lady (without a stick) over so that she fell into the lift. Two horrified friends of the now recumbent lady in the lift took objection to this and began barging into the protagonist and his companion. As I passed I loudly said 'what disgraceful behaviour' as belligerently as possible though I was actually trying very hard not to laugh and point. It was fucking ace, but on the other hand it may give you some idea of what I was up against.
There were more drinks at the after show party where we mingled with the cream of the world of classical music. Doesn't mean much to me I'm afraid but the wine and the canapés were excellent. My mobile went off, I discreetly answered, it was Jerry. He and a friend were in the Mandarin Orient hotel in Kensington and I was invited to join them for (yet more) drinks. I was going to decline when I though 'fuck it'. It was gone midnight and I wasn't done yet.
I jumped into a cab and arrived in the marble lobby, for once not feeling like a spare prick at a wedding as I was perfectly dressed for the place. Jerry and his friend, Sean were already lolling about chatting to a quantity of expensively attired women in their late 30's early 40's sipping champagne. I had some more wine and mucked in. By now I was getting to the point of inebriation but I maintained some sort of social reasoning. The bar shut at 2 am and I was flung into a large cab with Jerry, Sean and three of the women from the bar. To my surprise an American one began to repeatedly kiss to the driver on the mouth as he was driving causing the cab to lurch across the road. Not even the shrieks of objection from the back would quell her passion.
Mercifully we arrived at the Conrad Hotel in one piece and went to Sean's suite where the mini bar was taken to task. The three girls were totally unfazed (worryingly perhaps) about relaxing in a room with three men they'd met a mere few hours before. The particularly refreshed American one, arseholed might be more apt, insisted on telling me over and over how she'd 'kick my ass', she was quite a big girl, I wasn't going to argue with her. One of the party was a very well spoken Englishwoman, mother of three apparently, lived in Dubai with her husband. Just before they all left at around 4am I was waiting for Sean to come out of the WC so I could take a leak. The Englishwoman came into the bathroom, spotting some sort of a queue decided she could no longer wait and, without so much as a by your leave, pissed in the bath.
It's Monday morning, the worst part of the week. This bloody song has been going round my head all weekend, I fucking love it.

The Early Childhood Education (ECE) major is an interdisciplinary undergraduate program in the College of Education and Professional Studies that focuses on skills needed to teach every young child between birth and through grade three.
The ECE major combines early childhood regular education and early childhood special education into one 4½ year undergraduate program. The program includes six semesters of full time professional education coursework with field placements, which students complete as members of a cohort. This means up to thirty students are admitted to the campus-based model each year to begin training in the spring, and up to twenty are admitted to start in the web-based cohort each summer. The ECE Major is the University of Wisconsin-Whitewater's response to today's needs in early childhood education. Two of the most critical needs are knowing how to teach in inclusive settings for all young children and having available a highly trained early childhood workforce.
This dual license program is offered in two different delivery models, a campus based and web based. If you are transferring from a Wisconsin Technical College with an Applied Associates degree in Early Childhood Education, you may be interested in the web based model, our ECE4U cohort.

Did you notice it at the Emmy's? That faintly weird accent she's sporting that Gwyneth Paltrow and Madonna have also adopted. It's the accent of the Newly British. Claire Danes thinks she's British now.
I am not a huge fan of Claire Danes. Never have been. There's not anything specifically that I dislike about her, it's more the sum total of the Claire Danes Experience. She's just kind of there. Always looking/sounding like she's about to cry. Never taking away but not really adding much either. Capable enough to get by, but she never really impresses me, not even in My So Called Life. I was a Rayanne fan.
Here is Claire with her (actually) British husband, Hugh Dancy at The King's Speech London premiere. I used to think he was cute. The longer he is with Claire, the less cute he becomes. Claire is emitting a vortex that is sucking the cuteness out of those who spend time around her. It's also sucking the cuteness out of Claire. Her face is amazing, isn't it? Such a gorgeous complexion, such perfectly applied makeup—not too much but enhancing the best about her—and her hair is great. It's like she's standing in a perpetual hair-wind.
But what is that dress? That dress is horrible. The vortex is starting with Claire's clothes. My mom has seasonal place mats made of the exact same fabric. And the ribbon accents are giving her tit sag. The vortex is attacking Claire's chest. And are those giant hearts on her bracelet? I'm not into heart-shaped anything. From the neck up, Claire is gorgeous. From the neck down, the vortex is winning.
She's British now, though, so this is probably supposed to be quirky.

Hi everyone! Stoked to have found this community and this car!
Some details... It's an automatic with 122k. The car was in dry storage the last 10 years. The only rust is a little bubbling along the inside bottom edge of the rear hatch and the under the carpet of the right rear side of the hatch.
Here's what's on my to-do list. I'll start searching for posts about this stuff but I'm interested in any advice you all have.
1. The top of the shift knob (automatic) - Was this wood or plastic?
2. I'm missing the mirror adjuster for the drivers side door.
3. The dash is cracked in a few places.
4. Need to fix the glove box but the car came with a spare hinge and door!
5. Center console plastic is cracked near the carpet by the shifter, car came with a black replacement but my car has tan interior. Should I paint it?
6. Droopy headliner. Was the original headliner vinyl?
1. The paint is a cheap respray close to the original color from the early '00s and there's some overspray on things like wipers and door seals that needs to be cleaned up.
2. What should I do about the shrunken rubber in the side moldings?
3. Anyone know what kind of wheels these are? One has a pretty decent ding in the edge.
4. The rear window seal was reworked the corner chrome pieces are present but loose and the top center one is missing
5. Cracked antenna mount
6. Rubber seals inside of the chrome along the windows looks bad. What should I do here?

Welcome! If the hardboard part of your headliner is still good, remove it and recover it using spray contact cement. Fun and easy!
