NASA finally arrives at flag-bearer after 10-hour night meeting

- The Opposition has finally decided who will be the NASA flag-bearer ending months of tension and wrangles

- The decision has however not made Kalonzo happy and it is not known if he will still remain in the coalition or not

- The 10-hour long meeting culminated in the signing of a deal which is expected to be honoured after the August 8 elections

The NASA coalition's headache is over after the four principals Raila Odinga, Kalonzo Musyoka, Moses Wetangula and Musalia Mudavadi finally settled on one of them to be the Opposition's presidential candidate, has learnt.

But the decision may break the coalition as Kalonzo is said to be uncomfortable with the decision although he agreed to sign it.

Mudavadi has now been given the party ticket and will go head to head with President Uhuru Kenyatta in the August 8 elections.

Reports indicate that the NASA principals met at an undisclosed location for about 10-hours in a marathon meting also attended by very close associates of the four leaders.

Sources revealed to that the leaders settled on Mudavadi as the coalition feel he is the most neutral of all principals.

Kalonzo will be his running mate with sources saying this was arrived at to prevent the Wiper leader from bolting out of the coalition hence break it and give Jubilee a clear win.

Raila will get a Prime Minister position in the government which will also see Wetangula become the leader of Majority in the Senate.

"We finally have the white smoke, we have at last made a decision and we ask our supporters to support us. The journey to remove Jubilee from power has just began," said Siaya Senator James Orengo in a statement to newsrooms co-signed together with his Machakos counterpart Johnson Muthama.

The four leaders have been engaged in a tussle as to who is the most suitable among them to be the coalition's flag bearer.

But Kalonzo has been the most uneasy one and he has made it clear he is ready to break away from the coalition unless he is given the ticket.

The arrangement however is said not to have pleased Kalonzo as he hoped to be made the torch bearer and it is not known whether he will still remain in NASA or bolt out.

"We will work towards the unity of NASA as well as that of the country. We have only one aim; to win this election with a wide margin," the statement added.

It remains to be seen how the rival Jubilee will react to the news as each team fights hard to win the election.

Meanwhile, if you believe this report, you have been fooled..because today is April Fools' Day!

High Court National Institute Clinical Excellence Alzheimers drugs

20 agosto 2007

Ewan Grist

As reported in our December 2006 update, a number of pharmaceutical companies and interested parties had sought judicial review of the decision of the NICE Board of Appeal to refuse to allow the prescription on the NHS of certain Alzheimer’s drugs for patients in the early stages of the disease. NICE argued that these drugs were not a cost effective use of the NHS’ resources. This was the first occasion that guidance from NICE has been subjected to legal challenge in the courts. The three drugs affected by NICE’s guidance were donepezil (Aricept, jointly marketed by Pfizer and Eisai), rivastigmine and galanthamine (Reminyl, marketed by Shire Pharmaceuticals).

On 10 August 2007, the High Court upheld NICE’s recommendation that these drugs should not be prescribed on the NHS for mild cases of Alzheimer’s disease (“AD”) but should be prescribed for moderately severe cases of AD only. It was not the role of the court to decide whether NICE had reached the correct decision in its guidance but merely whether the procedures and evidential evaluation carried out during the appeal process had been correctly applied. Mrs Justice Dobbs ruled that NICE’s decision had not been reached in an irrational or unfair manner.

The court did however hold that NICE’s guidance had failed to take into account disability discrimination law (in particular the discrimination that would arise out of rigid adherence to the use of a diagnostic assessment score known as MMSE) and should be amended accordingly. This amendment will not significantly affect the access to these drugs on the NHS however, save in the cases of ‘atypical’ patients such as those with a disability or poor command of English. In such cases, these factors must be taken into account when deciding upon the appropriate prescription.

The judgment has been met with extreme disappointment by a number of patient groups such as Age Concern who expressed their surprise that drugs costing as little as £2.50 per day would only be available for restricted prescription on the NHS. Paul Hooper, Eisai’s managing director, described the NICE’s guidance as “morally reprehensible” and confirmed that they will seek leave to appeal the court’s decision.

NICE’s chief executive, Andrew Dillon, claimed that the judgment strengthened NICE by endorsing its approach to evaluating drugs. He commented that “Alzheimer’s disease is a devastating illness, but the evidence indicates that these drugs are simply not effective for some patients. That is why we also issued advice last year on the broader support that should be provided for people with Alzheimer’s disease and those who care for them, creating core standards for the NHS and care homes that will make a real difference for patients and their families”.

Criminal Record Checks

                         UK Employee Checks offer all three levels of DBS checks online (formerly known as CRB checks).

crb check

Please Click below to start your online

Basic Button

   Turnaround Times 5 – 10 days

  A Basic Disclosure checks an individuals unspent convictions more commonly known as a CRB check.   A Basic online disclosure checks an individuals’ criminal record and results in a certificate providing details of an applicant’s unspent convictions. Under the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act 1974 as outlined by the government this level of criminal record check is available to any individual or employers. This is the most commonly required level of criminal record check and should be the level you are requesting if the Standard and Enhanced requirements do not apply to you.

For our 3 step guide to getting your online DBS application underway in minutes either online or with a paper application form just click here to be taken to our Basic Disclosure page or call us on 01372 279 276 for more information. Lines are open from 9am to 5pm.

Please Click below to start your online

Standard button      Turnaround Times 2 – 3 days

Standard DBS checks show details of both a candidate’s unspent and spent convictions as well as any cautions received.  As the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act 1974  protects applicants from having to disclose details of spent cautions and convictions unless they are applying for a position that is exempt from the act, we recommend that anyone wishing to obtain a Standard DBS ensures that the position applied for allows for a Standard DBS – such positions include those involved in the legal system, licencing, health services, police, prisons or positions with financial control.

For our  2 step guide to getting your Online DBS application underway in minutes either online or with a paper application form just click here to be taken to our Standard DBS page or call us on 01372 279 276 for more information. Lines are open from 9am to 5pm.

Please Click below to start your online

Enhanced Button     Turnaround Times 2 – 5 days

Enhanced DBS checks are essential for applicants who will be working with children or vulnerable adults as depending on an individual’s criminal record history they may be unsuitable for such positions. An Enhanced DBS check covers both spent and unspent convictions, a Barred List check (which checks if an individual is on a list of people barred from working with children or vulnerable adults), as well as any other information that the police hold on the individual that they feel it is relevant to disclose.

For our 2 step guide to getting your Online DBS application underway in minutes either online or with a paper application form just click here to be taken to our Enhanced DBS page or call us on 01372 279 276 for more information. Lines are open from 9am to 5pm.

Terms and Conditions

Pre Employment Screening

pre employment screening

It is always important for employers to know that the information applicants have provided on their CVs is correct, as employers are often using this information to make a decision on whether or not to hire that particular applicant.

UK Employee Checks provides an employee vetting service whereby all information presented on a CV can be checked and verified. This can cover elements of or all of the following; employment reference checks (generally for 5 years of employment history but this can be adapted to suit your needs), educational history, professional qualifications and professional  memberships.

It is worth noting that these background checks and the employee vetting process in general should not be considered solely for potential employees. Vetting current employees can also help to ensure that individuals do not have anything that would count against them in terms of the positions they currently hold.

Employee checks such as bankruptcy, CCJ searches, Bank of England Sanction searches, media searches and other background checks (see our full list of services) can highlight any negative listings of information that may affect an individual’s suitability for certain positions. Criminal record checks (previously known as CRB checks) in particular have come to be seen as an essential part of all background vetting over the last few years, so our staff at UK Employee Checks have considerable experience in carrying out these background checks and we are able to provide Basic Disclosures as well as Standard DBS Checks and Enhanced DBS checks.

If you require a quote on our employee screening prices please visit our contact page. We have a full list of the various background checks which can be carried out and using our online form you can select  the checks that are applicable for your company and a member of our team will respond to you accordingly.

employee screening

Pre-employment screening (PES) in recent years has become a vital element of the hiring process for a number of sectors.

It is important to ensure that your new employees are screened to your requirements, but these requirements may also be specific to your company, in which case we are able to provide a wide variety of different checks so that employers can have the maximum confidence that the applicants they will be hiring are suitable for their positions.

Noel Tovey AM

Headshot of Noel Tovey1934-

A richly talented performing artist who triumphed over adversity

Noel Tovey AM enjoys the distinction of being Australia's first male ballet dancer of Aboriginal heritage. He has led a remarkable career spanning 60 years as an actor, dancer, singer, director, choreographer, designer, writer and teacher in Australia and Europe.

Noel's young life was punctuated with abandonment and abuse

Born in 1934, Noel's childhood in the inner suburbs of Melbourne can only be described as tragic. It was not unusual for children of working class families in Melbourne to live in poverty during the Depression of the 1930s, but Noel's young life was punctuated with abandonment and abuse.

While Noel admits that he was in denial of his Aboriginal heritage for about 30 years because he was made to feel ashamed of it when he was young, it is through a connection with this heritage that he attributes many turning points in his life.

Family history research by Noel in recent years revealed that his father, Frederick Morton, was of African-Canadian and French-Creole heritage and that his mother, Winifred Ann Tovey, was Aboriginal. Noel's great-grandmother, Margaret Carmody, was a Ngarrindjeri woman from South Australia.

Noel believes his talent in the performing arts stems from his father's side of the family. Frederick Morton was a member of a musical performing act, known as the Royal Bohee Brothers, set up by his grandfather and great uncle in London in the 1880s. Despite his musical talents, Morton became addicted to alcohol and cocaine and as a result Noel and his 4 siblings grew up in extreme poverty.

In the early 1940s, Noel and his sister were sent to the Royal Park Welfare Depot for Children before being put into the care of a man who submitted them to prolonged sexual and physical abuse. Noel escaped this situation when he was admitted to the Far West Children’s Hospital in Manly, New South Wales, for treatment for a knee condition. After completing this treatment he was reunited with his mother.

Success in ballet and theatre

Given the circumstances of Noel's childhood, it was not surprising that his schooling was patchy, and by the age of 12 his formal education was over. For a few years Noel lived off his wits on the streets, but he loved to read and continued to educate himself through newspapers and books. It was as a 15 year old, working in the Collins Book Depot in Melbourne, that he went to see the ballet Les Sylphides at the National Theatre. This inspired him to begin ballet classes with Jean Alexander at the National Theatre Ballet School. He went on to study with Madame Borovansky and then joined the Ballet Guild where he danced in En Cirque and The Sentimental Bloke.

In time, theatre attracted Noel as strongly as dance, and he appeared in amateur and semi-professional productions. He made his professional debut in Paint Your Wagon in 1954 and subsequently appeared in Bells are Ringing, Salad Days, Witness for the Prosecution, Once upon a Mattress and Music Man at the Princess Theatre in Melbourne. He also performed in many revues with comedian Mary Hardy with whom he had a close friendship. Recognising his need for stronger professional experience, Noel convinced the legendary actor-director Hayes Gordon to take him on as his student and set his sights on a career abroad.

As an impressionable young man, striving for a place in 1950s Melbourne theatre life, Noel was drawn into a bohemian lifestyle. It was a time in Australia when homosexuality was repressed and driven underground. Due to unfortunate circumstances, Noel was imprisoned and convicted for something which is no longer considered a crime. This conviction was a blight on his life for many years and further motivated him to move abroad. Before leaving Australia he married Barbara Hickling, with whom he has a daughter, Felicity.

Career in Australia and overseas

In 1961 Noel became a principal dancer with The Sadler's Wells Company in London and then made his singing debut in On The Level, a musical by Australian Ron Grainer. Noel's career as a choreographer was launched in 1966 with a production of Sandy Wilson's The Boyfriend. The show was a resounding success and toured Britain and Australia in 1968. Noel went on to direct and choreograph many theatre productions in Europe during the 1970s and 1980s. In 1970, Noel met David Sarel who would be his life and business partner for 16 years. Together they opened L'Odeon, a decorative arts gallery, and this proved to be a very successful venture until Sarel's death in 1986.

Noel returned to Australia in 1991 and set up a performing arts course at the Eora Centre for Aboriginal Studies in Sydney. He also continued to direct many theatre productions with standouts being A Midsummer Night’s Dream with an entirely Aboriginal cast, for the 2000 Sydney Olympic Arts Festival of The Dreaming. He also directed The Aboriginal Protesters which was performed in Germany. Alongside his work in the arts, Noel actively campaigned for Aboriginal rights, with a particular interest in deaths in custody.

Noel's autobiography Little Black Bastard (2004), for which he received the 2000 Indigenous Writing Fellowship, was inspired by a tram ride through Melbourne seeing many familiar and traumatic places from his childhood. He wrote and performed a one-man play of the same name. The play gained considerable acclaim in Australia and at the Edinburgh Festival in 2010, where he was nominated for the World Amnesty Award. It was also performed at the London Origins Festival in 2011.

Noel is strongly focused upon nurturing and mentoring young Aboriginal actors and performers

Noel has served on many arts-related organisations and boards, including the Australia Council, the NSW Arts Council, the 2000 Olympic Arts Festival, the Aboriginal Arts Reference Group and the AIDS Trust of Australia. In recent years he set up scholarships for 2 recipients from socially disadvantaged backgrounds – 1 Indigenous, 1 non-Indigenous – to attend the Flying Fruit Fly Circus School.

Noel was recently awarded the Uncle Bob Maza Memorial Lifetime Achievement Award for outstanding contribution to Victorian Indigenous theatre (2014). In 2015 he received an Order of Australia.

Now in his senior years, Noel is strongly focused upon nurturing and mentoring young Aboriginal actors and performers. His Scholarship Foundation, along with his personal courage, are providing guidance and inspiration for future generations.

Abu Sayyaf Claims Responsibility for Philippine Blasts

President Gloria Macapagal Arroyo ordered tight security Monday for the southern Philippine city of General Santos, a day after a series of bomb explosions ripped through the city killing 14 people.

Police questioned two men suspected of belonging to the Muslim separatist group Moro Islamic Liberation Front, in connection with the deadly bombings. But a man claiming to be a spokesman for another Muslim guerilla group, the Abu Sayyaf, told a local radio station his group was responsible for the bombings and warned of more to come if U.S. soldiers did not leave the country immediately.

Since February, U.S. Special Forces have been training Philippine troops in the largely Muslim Philippine island of Basilan to combat the Abu Sayyaf, which Washington has linked to Osama bin Laden's al-Qaida terrorist network. The group, which has earned millions of dollars from a series of kidnap-for-ransom activities involving foreigners, has been holding an American missionary couple and a Philippine nurse captive for nearly 11 months now. Other Abu Sayyaf members claim they have no knowledge of the bomb attacks in the mostly Christian city of General Santos, located 350 kilometers east of Basilan.

President Gloria Macapagal Arroyo visited General Santos Monday and pledged an all-out war on the Abu Sayyaf. During a tour of the devastated city, she called the bombings a "crime against the Filipino people." A small bomb exploded on a fishing boat outside the city, as Mrs. Arroyo was meeting with the mayor.

Around 85 percent of the 76 million people who live in the Philippines are Christian, while only around five million are Muslim. Several Islamic groups have been fighting for independence for several decades, but the Abu Sayyaf has been the most violent and brutal, beheading several of their hostages.

What you think will happen with online sales after banks and investment firms go under?

by Terry Crim 10 replies
Just watched some news on tv and apparently AIG was bailed out but now Washington Mutual is in trouble. I think we will start to see more banks and firms come out and say they too are in trouble.

What you think will happen with your online sales in future? Will IM dispear? Is it doom and gloom and everyone will be homeless using rocks to make fire?

What is your opinion on the current state of events?

Edit: In relation to doing business online. Forget to add that for those that didn't get that is what I mean here.

    I think IM is one of the best businesses to be in now since we can react so quickly. I sell information . . . and I sell "just in time" content. I get many ideas for content from the headlines on Yahoo, the newspapers and magazine covers. Saving money is a great subject to write about now as is making money online . . .

    Maybe we should start writing some ebooks about how people can get through the tough times ahead. And more people might start searching the internet for new ways to make some extra money. Look at how popular the ebooks are about running your car on water! It wasn't that long ago those products didn't even exist.

        We had a lot of banks go under here in Japan in 1997-8. Lots of men in business suits jumping out of windows. And life goes on.

        We still have banks. They simply merged and became better. Adversity doesn't always spell doom and gloom, it usually leads to improvement.

    Ok, I was just curious what others were thinking on this. I don't personally believe it is doom and gloom and that business in certain niches will actually improve.

    Maybe was mistake to post but I wanted to get others input on the events of late. We had similar happenings before and we got through with more abundance going on while the Doom and Gloom never really did happen except for those that Doom and Gloomed about it.

    Well I for one have never experienced a drop in sales whether the economy is good or bad, people spend the same money today that they did yesterday.

    The only drop in online sales I would like to see are actually many members of this forum who sell useless information to uneducated people.

    Maybe that's blasphemy to say here on the WF but there are a lot of members here who are misleading consumers the same way corporate america has been and I hope they suffer the same fate.

    $3,000,000 + every year online, How do I do it?

In the spring of 1958, after President Dwight Eisenhower called to create a civilian space agency, the US Air Force assumed it would lead any national spaceflight effort. As such, the service prepared a detailed, multi-stage plan called Man in Space with the goal of landing a man on the Moon by the mid 1960s.

Most of the really wrong design decisions in the Shuttle system — the side-mounted orbiter, solid rocket boosters, lack of air-breathing engines, no escape system, fragile heat protection — were the direct fallout of this design phase, when tight budgets and onerous Air Force requirements forced engineers to improvise solutions to problems that had as much to do to do with the mechanics of Congressional funding as the mechanics of flight. In a pattern that would recur repeatedly in the years to come, NASA managers decided that they were better off making spending cuts on initial design even if they resulted in much higher operating costs over the lifetime of the program.

In suburban sprawl, you’re doomed to spending vast amounts of time at the wheel–time you cannot do much else with, and which you won’t get back. The nature of low-density automobile sprawl cities is that everything is insanely far away from everything else, so no matter what you do, you’re doomed to driving vast distances to see most friends, to commute to work and so on.

On September 26, 1983, Soviet military officer Stanislav Petrov received a message that five nuclear missiles had been launched by the United States and were heading to Moscow. He didn’t launch a retaliatory strike, believing correctly that it was a false alarm. And with that, he saved the world from nuclear war. But now reports have surfaced that Petrov died this past May. He was 77 years old.

Lt. Col. Stanislav Petrov was 44 years old and working at a missile detection bunker south of Moscow on September 26, 1983. His computer told him that five nuclear missiles were on their way, and given their flight time, he had just 20 minutes to launch a counter attack. But Petrov told his superior officers that it was a false alarm. He had absolutely no real evidence that this was true, but it probably saved millions of lives.

Few people can legitimately claim to have personally saved the world, but this guy was someone who could. Покойся с миром!

An example of how Brexit could lead to a nuclear war could be this:

Brexit in the UK causes Italy or France to have a similar referendum. Le Pen wins an election in France. Europe now has a fractured EU. The EU, for all its many awful faults, has prevented a war in Europe for longer than ever before. The EU is also a major force in suppressing Putin’s military ambitions. European sanctions on Russia really hit the economy, and helped temper Russia’s attacks on Ukraine (there is a reason bad guys always want a weaker European Union). Trump wins in the US. Trump becomes isolationist, which weakens NATO. He has already said he would not automatically honor NATO commitments in the face of a Russian attack on the Baltics.

With a fractured EU, and weakened NATO, Putin, facing an ongoing economic and social crisis in Russia, needs another foreign distraction around which to rally his people. He funds far right anti-EU activists in Latvia, who then create a reason for an uprising of the Russian Latvians in the East of the country (the EU border with Russia). Russia sends “peace keeping forces” and “aid lorries” into Latvia, as it did in Georgia, and in Ukraine. He cedes Eastern Latvia as he did Eastern Ukraine (Crimea has the same population as Latvia, by the way).

But federal authorities recently screwed up and revealed the secret themselves when they published a cache of case documents but failed to redact one identifying piece of information about the target: his email address, With that, the very authorities holding the threat of jail time over Levison’s head if he said anything have confirmed what everyone had long ago presumed: that the target account was Snowden’s.

Remember CISA? The "Cybersecurity Information Sharing Act"? It's getting much, much worse, with Congress and the administration looking to ram it through -- in the process, dropping any pretense that it's not a surveillance bill.

It’s a wretched yet predictable ritual after each new terrorist attack: Certain politicians and government officials waste no time exploiting the tragedy for their own ends. The remarks on Monday by John Brennan, the director of the Central Intelligence Agency, took that to a new and disgraceful low.

Speaking less than three days after coordinated terrorist attacks in Paris killed 129 and injured hundreds more, Mr. Brennan complained about “a lot of hand-wringing over the government’s role in the effort to try to uncover these terrorists.”

The leaked papers appear to show that drone strikes were often carried out based on insufficient and unreliable intelligence and when executed, often compromise further gathering of intelligence.

The documents reveal that in Afghanistan, drone strikes on 35 targets killed at least 219 other people.

The reliance on bottled water rather than fountains also has serious environmental effects. According to the Earth Policy Institute, it takes about 1.5 million barrels of oil to create the 50 billion plastic water bottles Americans use each year. (That’s enough oil to fuel 100,000 cars for a year.) Less than a quarter of those bottles are recycled. And these statistics don’t even account for the fuel used in transporting the water around the country and the world.

Bottled water is also expensive. Drinking eight glasses of tap water a day costs about 49 cents a year. If you got that hydration exclusively from bottles, you’d pay about $1,400, or 2,900 times more. If you’re living at the poverty line, that’s 10 percent of your income.

Data obtained by the Welsh Conservatives has revealed the substantial sums reimbursed to Cardiff Council Officers for their commutes.

A total of £1,095,587.50 was reimbursed to Council Officers for their everyday travel expenditure during 2015/16.

Welsh Conservatives have called into question this taxpayer funded subsidy and are pledging to reduce waste by local authorities ahead of local elections on May 4th.

The revelations come just days after the Taxpayers’ Alliance revealed the rising number of people in Welsh local governments earning over £100,000.

Cardiff City Council now boasts the most employees receiving over £100,000 in Wales.

Leader of the Welsh Conservatives and South Wales Central AM, Andrew RT Davies, said:

“Cardiff residents have seen council tax spiralling in recent years, and many will question whether these sums represent value for money.

“It’s as though council leaders are on a different planet to the ordinary hardworking people they represent.

“In how many other walks of life are staff given a free ride when it comes to the daily commute?

“Clearly staff shouldn’t be out of pocket for travel undertaken as a result of their jobs – but there aren’t too many people fortunate enough to have the journey to their everyday place of work paid for.”

Shadow Local Government Secretary, Janet Finch-Saunders, said:

“Welsh Conservatives believe in low taxes and efficient, high quality public services.

“We would root out examples of waste such as this and ensure that local residents are no longer being asked to pay more for less in terms of public services.

“We also want to give communities a greater say in how their money is spent, and we would increase transparency at county halls across Wales by forcing them to publish details of council spending online.”

Can YOU Help?

… we have a small favour to ask. More people are reading the West Wales Chronicle than ever but advertising revenues across the media are falling fast. And unlike many news organisations, we haven’t put up a paywall – we want to keep our journalism as open as we can. So you can see why we need to ask for your help. The West Wales Chronicle’s independent, investigative journalism takes a lot of time, money and hard work to produce. But we do it because we believe our perspective matters – because it might well be your perspective, too.

If everyone who reads our reporting, who likes it, helps fund it, our future would be much more secure. For as little as £1, you can support the Chronicle – and it only takes a minute. Thank you.

Solution to welfare problems Topic

Posted in another thread but thought it deserved its own:

I think we should castrate everyone at birth and reproduce using modern science.

It would save a ton of trouble. Think about it - no more problems of guys thinking with their **** because the hormones just aren't there. There's a lot less crime and no one is making babies they can't afford to care for.

4/4/2013 9:53 AM
like gattaca?
4/4/2013 9:57 AM
4/4/2013 10:02 AM
Well, maybe castrate men after they get old enough to first store some sperm.

Not like gattaca - just use science to impregnate women when they know they want to get pregnant, and have passed a test and gotten a license to be a parent, which includes showing you can afford to care for the child.

No more going on welfare because you have not one but three kids you can't afford and you're too stupid to learn from your first mistake and use birth control. No more neglected children. No more children turning into idiots because of that neglect.

Less crime, not only because kids don't have these issues but because without hormones men don't think with their **** anymore. Most sex crimes become non-existant, and men don't waste time going to hookers and strip clubs, and they also don't act like sex-craving idiots.

4/4/2013 10:08 AM
Did you steal my "forced abortions" idea?   Or just modify it?
4/4/2013 10:20 AM
This isn't forced abortion - it's forced castration, which is better because it helps prevent more problems - mostly the ones caused by men doing stupid things in the name of seeking sex.
4/4/2013 10:31 AM
Yeah, I knew I'd regret unblocking you to find out.   Quit stealing my ideas.    I assume you're anti-abortion so this seemed to be your best alternative.

I won't discuss this with you, because I know how it turns out, but you're attempting to "punish" people before they do something stupid.    I don't like that.
4/4/2013 10:34 AM
This was all my own idea - I had no idea you may have even posted something similar, and still don't know what your actual idea is.

If you think it's "punishing" people before they do something stupid, how about we just castrate the people who already do those things?

Sex crime? Castrated. Have a child without a license? Castrated.

There, is that better?

4/7/2013 8:21 AM
Instead of specifics we need to change the mentality of the system.

The plan should always be to transition from support to independence.

The current system encourages you to be a slave to the system.
4/8/2013 1:38 AM
4/8/2013 5:51 AM
Yes, the current system ABSOLUTELY encourages someone to be a slave to the system.

The reason is simple: People can be better off financially if they use the system than they would be to get many lower level jobs (which are often the only ones they could get anyway through a combination of personal matters and the present economy).

The government also needs to close some major loopholes, such as income-based housing that doesn't county child support as income.

For example, there is a woman who lives in such a housing community near my mother's house who brags to everyone about how she gets over $5,000 every month in child support for her three children and none of it counts as income.

Since she has zero income that is counted, the government pays her entire rent and utility bills because it considers her to "need" those things paid. Since she has no rent or utility  bills to pay and over $5,000 coming in every month, she hires a nanny to watch her three children while she goes out and parties on the child support money, then tells everyone all about it.

The worst part? She tells young women her "secret" and advises them to do it: "Just **** a rich guy and make sure you get pregnant and wait for the money to roll in." Apparently it was all done on purpose.

Yes, this is an extreme situation, but I have no doubt it's not the only one like this.

Coto De Hayas Centenaria Garnacha 2013, Do Campo De Borja

Grenache Grenache

$12.75 (94805)

  • None
  • Drink Now Or Cellar
  • Not RatedNR

Made exclusively with Garnacha (aka Grenache), this wine features aromas of sour cherry, plum, raspberry, spice and oak. Dry and very concentrated with fine tannins bringing outstanding balance. A very tasty wine with a long and lively finish. Cellar it up to 4 years, but it is drinking brilliantly right now with grilled lamb chops or wild game. (VINTAGES panel, July 2012)

Velinda M.

I just read a two star review, and I'm thinking, this is Toysrus! If you want a TON of variety, and the likelihood of finding most if not all of what you are looking for in one stop, then this is where to go. It has an incredible variety of toys and games for all age kids, including a great baby section. It is definitely my go to store for shopping for my grandkids. I do like also shopping in smaller unique toy stores, but ToysRus is great for the latest pop culture favorites for kids. End of story.

Crazy Place

This ToysRUs store is not very well organized and the prices are not that great. It is also usually crowded with a lot of people with screaming kids. I would rather shop elsewhere for toys.

Longboat Key Thursday, Jun. 25, 2009 8 years ago

Club submits economic study

by: Kurt Schultheis Senior Editor

An economic and fiscal impact analysis of the Longboat Key Club and Resort’s $400 million Islandside renovation plan states the club will generate substantial economic and fiscal benefits for both the town and its residents.

The study, prepared by Orlando-based Fishkind & Associates Inc., was submitted as part of the club’s revised application to the Planning, Zoning and Building Department earlier this month.

According to the study, the project will:
• Generate a cumulative net fiscal surplus of more than $1 million over the first five years.
• Create 280 full-time jobs on-site, create more than 500 jobs supported directly or indirectly from the project and create an increase of almost $40 million in total economic impact per year.
• Increase property values by 7% to 12% from the renovations and improvements to the Islandside golf course and club facilities.

The study also shows that the project will produce a fiscal surplus of more than $17 million, with a present value of $3.9 million over a 30-year period. According to the study, the present value of the net cumulative surplus of $3.9 million equals 24% of the town’s general fund budget, which the town could use to reduce taxes, increase services or use a combination of the two.

Above is a summary of the net fiscal impacts of the renovation plan on the town’s budget.

Fulltime Longboat Key residents received calls Sunday, June 14 through Sunday, June 21 from a public-relations firm that conducted seven-minute surveys.

Residents were asked questions from a live person about how they felt about growth and specific questions about the Longboat Key Club and Resort’s Islandside renovation plan.

Key Club General Manager Michael Welly could not be reached for comment regarding the survey.

Ive always loved the idea of infinite creative freedom. Worlds can be created at your fingertips, never ending possibilities that all come from your own mind. I do not believe I have a certain style or belong in one particular "label", I just create stuff I like, so I never get bored of it. I love all types of artwork mediums and styles. Be an open minded person if you want to gain as much inspiration and experience in your own creative process. For me, I see drawing as 100% creative expression. With such an abundance of creative ability available to us, anything can be possible in any world you want to create.

As you see Im a busy Lady but as my children Get older and need less of my attention I found myself wondering what can I do to contribute to my Familys Income to ease our Finacial burdens. I have sewn since I left school have done custom work, alterations, costumes, Weddings but it seems now a days no one is willing to pay what I feel is a Great art. So I taught myself many things over the course of my life to expand my creative life. I have learned to make Beaded jewelry,
Knit, Scrapbook, and Leather work. Which has turned into a real passion and has given me true happiness doing it. I just hope People appreciate this art and can see the beauty I do with Leather.
