Spoken like someone who assumes the answer is self-evident. No, local party members choose the local candidate. When you say the "party chooses", well, who in the party chooses? The local registered party members? the party executive? The voters (based on what)? A party list prepared by someone?
Then, the vote happens. Look at my example above. Which 20% of NDP MP's get chosen? How? Is there a FPTP and what is left over is split on PR?
I don't have a problem with PR, I would welcome it in my case. HOWEVER, I just want to know how it is to be applied, the specifics, and nobody, including the PR supporters, answered that simple question. Hence, that is why PR supporters deserve a F. It's too bad. Unless you have something specific, it is difficult to change from the current status. | 0 | en |

Contrary to comments from many here, range and charging time are of no worry to me. The only thing that has stopped me from buying an EV (other than my current car is 5 years old and won't be changed for another 3-4 years) is the price. I would pay 10-15% premium for an EV, not much more.
The other issue in cities is that most condominiums don't have outlets in the garage so that cuts out a lot of people (like me). | 0 | en |

It was about 2 feet off the ground. Probably a long and torturous death for the dog as it did not choke it as much but just hung there till dead.

It is far from a "life and death situation," with no reason yet to flip out and take rash actions. Experienced diplomats understand that and do what is necessary to defuse the situation without loss of face. Trump doesn't understand that and reacted in a foolish manner leaving him with little wiggle room once kim, predictably, pushes back. The time of the cold war with the former u.s.s.r. was full of such tension, but the world survived. The difference now, is that we have a crazy, inexperienced, unpredictable potus. The only hope is that his military advisors can talk sense into him. | 0 | en |
Mr. Dalton, your opening sentence hints at a big part of why Americans cannot be brought to support single-payer in large enough numbers to make it so: Far too many white folks just don't want to pay for health care for non-white people. Sure, they cover this up with niceties, but it hides in plain sight nonetheless.
Maybe in thirty years, when most families in America are either non-white or at least have near relatives who are non-white, we might finally get there. | 0 | en |
There are a lot of troubling things going on with these activists finding willing audiences in corrupt politicians like Kathleen Wynne. Just as they are trying to censor this brilliant and refreshing documentary on Dr. Zucker, (I'd encourage you to look into this heroic professional who was black listed by these career, taxpayer bleeding, social justice warriors and militant activists), they did the same thing with the Ontario Sex Ed curriculum. They banned any parental feedback and deferred to the activist themselves to review it and approve it, despite the fact that it heavily promotes gender diasphora, and the fantasies of Ben Levin.
These totalitarians operate under the guise of gaining equality for a supposed marginalized group, but are willing to go scorched earth with your children to get what they want.

Please feel free to judge me as much as you like. At least I know the difference between different social and economic systems, and don't base every argument I make on calling someone a "liberal" or "conservative." People who do this strike me as people who gave themselves over to unthinking ideology a long time ago. I would much rather think for myself than dogmatically repeat some tired old ideology thank you.
But this isn't about me or you. It is about a problem we both have as members of this community. We should work together in a rational, reasonable, thoughtful, and measurable manner to solve it.
So, you solution is "let it get really bad for them." What is the acceptable death and disease rate? Should we just give over our downtown, midtown, parks and green spaces to the mess until then? Lay it out for me. Thought about helping them find a way to regain their dignity -- to actually have something they want to work to keep? Just an idea. | 0 | en |

Build more of what people want or don't expect much to change unless we could get the gov't to start teaching children that desiring to own your own little piece of property with a home on it is irresponsible and that they should strive for living in apartments or condos. | 0 | en |

We noticed though that when you edited Grade II* listed buildings in Waverley, Surrey, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Country Life (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of ""Did you mean..."" article titles. Read the Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Middleham and other hoards
Hi BabelStone, thanks for adding Middleham to the list of hoards. Much appreciated! Also, sorry if I seemed at all caustic in my comment about the addition of the Mesolithic site in Guildford - I only noticed that it might come across bluntly after re-reading! Since you seem to have all the right skills, I wondered whether you might be tempted to work more on the Middleham Hoard article or on other English Civil War hoards with support from York Museums Trust's numismatics curator ? It would be great for our GLAM-wiki partnership to establish direct links between curators and active editors (other than myself!). Particularly ones with specialist knowledge. Any thoughts? Thanks
Hi Pat, I did have a look at the Middleham Hoard article, but I didn't contribute anything as I thought from your message that some new editors were still working on it ... but as it does not seem to have changed much since then I'll see if there is anything I can do to help. To be honest, I did feel a little put down by your earlier comment; I rather carelessly pulled the offending term out of the air without giving it sufficient thought, for which I apologize. I don't pretend to be an archaeologist (a couple of digs and a term at university in the late 1970s hardly count), but I enjoy contributing to archaeological articles precisely because I am not an expert in the field, and editing helps me learn more about subjects that interest me.
Hi! First of all - Wow! Thanks! The Middleham Hoard article has made great leaps! It is massively appreciated. Secondly: big apologies. I've just gone and re-read my comment about Guildford again and feel very embarrassed - I must have been writing in a massive rush. The irony is that I'm personally very keen on improving the coverage of the Mesolithic on Wikipedia! I appreciate your work on this and other archaeology stuff and hope that we can get past this and work together in the future! Thanks for being magnanimous

A couple of thoughts:
1. The University can invite and disinvite whomever it wants.
2. The process of disinvitation may have been "botched" but it is fair to question how influence of the powerful (the unnamed donors) was brought to bear on this matter. Furlong has lots of powerful friends it seems and so what have we learned - that it is relatively easy to push universities which are supposed to be independent centres of thought around when one has money or has frineds who have money. | 0 | en |
your reasons are bogus. first, the delay caused by your frivolous suits was more than $46 m., you bird are not considering that the delay cause all current and all future contracts to be delayed. the most substantial is the cost for future contracts that had to be delayed which would be substantial as constructions cost were increasing about 12 per cent per year. if it the cost to complete the project was $5b, then the delay cost over $1B. Further, using the index to cite construction cost is totally misleading. we all know that the contracts to build the first 10 mile stations came way over budget and was repackaged to smaller contracts to reduce the overall cost which was still higher than the original budgeted amounts using the index. stop this nonsense with false and misleading arguments, it is shameful that you birds deliberately lie. no class, no shame. | 0 | en |

After the past eight years of hysteria over that "n***er" in our Whitehouse, and the last 20+ years of demonizing progressives (on the suggestion of that great moralist, Newt Gingrich), this new rabid group of Republicans was elected by exploiting the racial and cultural fears of those who think it is government's role to give them back the mythical land of Mayberry, USA. Although, it might be noted that Sheriff Andy Taylor was also know as the lawman without a gun. Any other government program is, naturally, SOCIALISM!!! Of course, there was real help from our own bishops (also so well known for always taking the moral high ground). So now they are in. Well, isn't it just one big pro-life fest now? Healthcare?

If Trump is to win, seems to me he has to focus on real issues, ignore taunts about his past ill-thought utterances about women with weight problems, etc. He needs to quit rising to the bait to defend himself & instead defend his policies of American Nationalism, oppose islam, emphasize improving trade agreements, revising the IRS tax codes, securing our borders & so many other critical issues.
If Trump does not win, we face increasing immigration of muslims, galloping growth of government, adoption of hordes of illegals, more porous borders, a weakened military, more lies & major corruption fostered by Hiliary.
Trump should attack Hiliary's long history of incompetence, her lies & corruption which began prior to WhiteWater, failing the D.C. bar exam, trying to force-feed national health care to Americans in 1998, Benghazi with focus on blaming the attack on an anti-muslim video, Hiliary's appointment of so many muslim staff. The field is rich in targets for Trump. | 0 | en |

Taxpayers Spend $3.5 Million to Find Out Why Lesbians Are Fat
A U.S. Health and Human Services (HHS) study to understand why lesbians are fat has now cost taxpayers over $3.5 million to-date.
The study,
“Sexual Orientation and Obesity: A Test of a Gendered Biopsychosocial
Model,” seeks to determine why there is a disparity in the obesity rates
between straight women and lesbian women and straight men and gay men.
According to the study, “It is now well-established that women of
minority sexual orientation are disproportionately affected by the
obesity epidemic, with nearly three-quarters of adult lesbians
overweight or obese, compared to half of heterosexual women. In stark
contrast, among men, heterosexual males have nearly double the risk of
obesity compared to gay males.”Apparently,
“these disparities are of high public-health significance,” therefore,
the National Institutes of Health has been continuously funding the project.
Since CNSNews.com first discovered
the government’s funding of the study in 2013, the cost to taxpayers
has increased from approximately $1.5 million to over $3.5 million.
A website with information pertaining to the project claims the study will continue until June 30, 2016.Source
Now you know what your funding with your hard earned money.

The writers of "Canada's Food Guide" are people with a personal agenda just like everyone else.
Grandma and Grandpa knew that a balanced diet of meat. dairy, grains, and plants is what is best for you. This bent towards plants suggests that the do-gooders have invaded the food guide and think that plants is the way to go.
Aside from aggravating the other food businesses, the emphasis on plants is just not a good dietary balance.
However the good news is that if the plant-eaters can move some people away from meat it will make more available for the rest of us! | 0 | en |

AES and Marketer FAQs
FAQs
General
What is Electric Choice?
Electric Choice is a statewide initiative giving all customers the option to choose the company that supplies their electricity. Residential and Business customers can elect to remain a customer of a regulated utility, such as DTE Electric, or enter into a contract with an Alternative Electric Supplier.
Electric Choice, or restructuring, separates electric service into its three basic components: generation, transmission and distribution. When a customer elects to participate in Electric Choice, the cost of electric supply, generation and transmission, will be determined by a contract between the customer and the Alternative Electric Supplier.
Regardless of who supplies the electricity, the regulated utility will continue to provide the distribution and metering services required to deliver power to the homes or businesses located within their service territory.
As an AES or a Marketer who is qualified to participate in DTE Electric Choice Program, who can I call at DTE Electric if I have questions?
An AES or a Marketer should contact the Supplier Account Manager that DTE Electric has assigned to your company when they have inquires about the DTE Electric Choice Program.
Where can I get more information on Electric Choice in the state of Michigan?
Visit the Michigan Public Service Commission (MPSC) website to find a directory of licensed Alternative Electric Suppliers and Marketers, MPSC’s Glossary of Electric Choice Terms, and to learn more about Electric Choice in Michigan.
What are the DTE Electric rate classifications?
All rates are contained in DTE Electric's rate book, which can be viewed on the MPSC web site.
Qualifications
What does a supplier need to do to qualify?
Navigate to the Supplier Tools section of this website to find the instructions on how to qualify as an AES or Marketer.
Who do I call at DTE Electric if my company is interested in participating in DTE Electric Choice Program as an AES or Marketer?
You can call the DTE Electric Choice Supplier Support Center hotline toll-free at 888.830.2170, or in the Detroit area dial 313.235.3796 Monday through Friday from 9:00 am to 5:00 pm EST.
Agreements
If I am an Alternative Electric Supplier (AES) and a Marketer, do both AES and Marketer Agreements need to be executed?
Yes, the AES and Marketer Agreements have different terms and conditions, both agreements must be executed if you elect to participate as both an AES and a Marketer in DTE Electric Choice Program.
What is the duration of the AES and Marketer Agreements?
The AES Agreement will remain in effect unless canceled pursuant to Section 15 of the agreement, or terminated without cause by either Party with 30 days prior written notice. DTE reserves the right to replace or amend the AES Agreement as appropriate to reflect changes required by regulatory agencies.
The Marketer Agreement will remain in effect unless canceled pursuant to Section 9 of the agreement, or terminated without cause by either Party with 30 days prior written notice. DTE reserves the right to replace or amend this Marketer Agreement as appropriate to reflect changes required by regulatory agencies.
How does an AES notify DTE Electric that their Marketer Relationship has changed?
An AES has the right to declare the entity that will act as their Marketer for their enrolled customer accounts. When an AES switches to a new Marketer they must notify DTE Electric of the new Marketer selection. The effective date of service from the new Marketer and termination of the former Marketer will occur on the first day of the calendar month following the completion of the following new Marketer participation requirements:
An AES must notify DTE Electric at least 30 days prior to the effective date of service from the new Marketer and termination of the former Marketer by submitting a new Alternative Electric Supplier-Marketer Notice form located in “AES Declaring a Switch of Marketer Relationship” section of the Supplier Tool Box.
The new entity you selected as your company’s Marketer must register for the Marketer participant role. Please direct your Marketer to complete the steps in the “How to Qualify as a Marketer” section of the Supplier Tool Box.
The DTE Electric Supplier Account Manager assigned to your company will contact the established AES Daily Contact Representative to assist your company with the Switch of Marketer Relationship Process.
What is the process for a Complete Billing AES to update their financial institution with DTE Electric?
When an AES who elected to participate in DTE Electric Choice Program with the Complete Billing Option changes financial institution the AES must provide DTE Electric the new banking information via the following process:
The DTE Electric Supplier Account Manager assigned to your company will contact the established AES Daily Contact Representative to assist your company with the process to declare the new financial institution.
Participant Relationships
If I am both the alternative electric supplier (AES) and the Marketer, do I need to execute the AES-Marketer Notice (identifying a relationship with myself)?
Yes. Even though you are both the AES and marketer, you must sign the AES-Marketer Notice. The AES-Marketer Notice informs DTE Electric whom the AES will have as its Marketer.
Can an AES have more than one Marketer?
Yes. AESs will need to identify each marketer with whom they will conduct business in a separate AES-Marketer Notice submitted to DTE Electric. A separate CP Node designation is required for each AES-Marketer business relationship.
Obtaining Usage Information
Who will be allowed to get customer information and the associated historical usage data?
The customer has always had access to its historical usage information and will continue to have access under the Electric Choice Program. Anyone authorized by the customer can get customer historical usage information. A Customer Information Release form is used to facilitate this request. The Customer Information Release form can be found in the Supplier Tool Box section of this website.
How long does it take to get a customer's 12-month bill history once we have faxed the request?
Customer use information will be sent to the requestor within ten (10) business days of receipt of the request, barring unusual circumstances.
How will the AES get billing determinants to use in billing its customers for energy?
The AES will get an XML 867 transaction set after the enrolled account is invoiced by DTE Electric.
How will the AES know if the XML enrollments are received?
The AES will receive an XML 814 confirmation transaction indicating a successful enrollment. For rejected enrollments, the XML 814 provides the reasons for rejection.
How will the AES and Marketer know when the customer is ready for electric choice service?
Both the AES and Marketer will receive an XML 814 transaction set indicating that the customer is Site Ready, which means all validation checks have been completed and all metering requirements are in place.
How does an AES or an Aggregator request Peak Load Contribution (PLC) values?
An AES or an Aggregator should submit a completed Customer Information Release Form to the DTE Electric Choice Supplier Support Center to request PLC values.
Who does an AES or an Aggregator contact regarding Peak Load Contribution (PLC) calculations?
An AES should contact the Supplier Account Manager that DTE Electric has assigned to your company when they have inquires about PLC calculations.
An Aggregator should contact the DTE Electric Choice Supplier Support Center at 1.888.830.2170 from 9:00 am to 5:00 pm EST Monday through Friday or email them at suppliers@dteenergy.com
Billing In-Service Electric Choice Accounts
How will customer billing be handled?
The Alternative Electric Supplier (AES) has the option to have DTE Electric bill on its behalf, which is referred to as Complete Billing, or to bill its customers directly, which is referred to as Separate Billing. If the AES elects the Complete Billing option, the customer will receive one bill statement. The AES energy supply charges are separated from DTE Electric delivery charges to allow the customer to review each individual charge separately. If the AES chooses the Separate Billing option, the customer will receive two separate bills: one bill from the AES for energy supply charges and one bill from DTE Electric for delivery charges.
Will there be a charge to switch to an Alternative Electric Supplier?
A $5.00 fee will be charged each time a customer switches to a different energy supplier. The switch fee applies when a customer switches from DTE Electric to an Alternative Electric Supplier (AES), from one AES to another AES, or from an AES back to DTE Electric.

For those customers who elect to use the DTE Electric load profiling methodology, is there a cost associated with this service?
No, there is no cost for the load profiling service.
If a separate data recording module is required for Marketers to obtain real-time data from a customer's existing meter, is it DTE Electric's intention to hold the Marketer responsible for the installation and maintenance of this equipment?
Yes. The customer, AES or Marketer can install their own recorder using the pulses supplied at the meter installation. If they choose to have DTE Electric install the recorder, DTE Electric will charge the Marketer or customer for the installation and maintenance of DTE Electric approved separate data recording modules.
What is your estimate of the cost of a data-recording module?
The meter data-recording module is available for the customer at a cost of $8 per month. This request can be made by completing the Customer Information Release Form. For more information, please contact the DTE Electric Choice Supplier Support Center at 1.888.830.2170 Monday through Friday from 9:00 am to 5:00 pm EST.
Who can I contact to ask questions about Load Profiling?
AES and Marketers should contact the Supplier Account Manager that DTE Electric has assigned to your company when they have inquiries regarding Load Profiling.
Enrollment Process
What is the Electric Choice “minimum term” for Business Customers?
The minimum term for business customers is two years.
What is the Electric Choice “minimum term”?
The minimum term for Electric Choice Residential Electric Service is one full billing cycle.
What is “slamming”?
Slamming is the unauthorized switching of a customer’s energy supply without their permission.
How will slamming be controlled?
The DTE Electric Choice Program’s customer enrollment process incorporates a confirmation process to help reduce the likelihood of slamming. The electric restructuring legislation enacted in June 2000 made slamming illegal. The Michigan Public Service Commission (MPSC) has established penalties for companies that engage in this practice. For more information, visit the MPSC website and search for MPSC Case Number U-12640.
When the customer is enrolled and has been notified, can the customer dispute the enrollment?
If the customer disputes their enrollment at any time, we will take the word of the customer, stop the enrollment process and notify the respective AES that the customer requested a cancellation.
If a customer is already enrolled with an AES and a second AES tries to enroll the same customer, what happens?
If the customer's first enrollment is still pending, the new enrollment will be rejected. However, if the customer is in service as an Electric Choice customer, the new enrollment will be treated as a switch request and all parties will be notified.
Where can I find DTE Electric’s current Electric Choice participation level numbers and available energy allotments for the DTE Electric Choice Program?
The Cap Tracking System is a web-based tracker that displays the Cap level of the DTE Electric Choice Program. Click on Cap Tracking System on the menu bar to view the current Electric Choice participation level and available energy allotments of the DTE Electric Choice Program. Also DTE Electric reports its monthly and year-to-date retail sales summaries in the Appendix to the Power Supply Cost Recovery (PSCR) 45-Day Report.
If the regulated electric utility’s 10 percent cap is fully subscribed, what happens to new enrollments that I submit?
Under state law, no more than 10 percent of a regulated electric utility’s average weather-adjusted retail sales for the preceding calendar year may take service from an Alternative Electric Supplier at any time. If the regulated electric utility’s 10 percent cap is fully subscribed, new enrollments will be placed in a Cap queue, per the procedures established in Case No. U-15801. For more information regarding Case No. U-15801 and the Electric Choice 10% Cap, please see the Customer Choice tab under Electricity on the MPSC website.
What happens if an enrolled account either moves or asks for a read out or read in?
If a customer notifies us of a move and requests a disconnect, we will initiate the "Drop" functionality in the system, which in turn notifies the AES and marketer of record of this "Drop." The meter read data will be obtained and forwarded as part of an 867 XML transaction set.
How is the name or other customer information shared between the AES and DTE Electric as the distribution company?
DTE Electric releases customer information used to establish an AES relationship when we receive the properly executed Customer Information Release form submitted on behalf of the customer and signed by both the customer and the AES. Information beyond usage information, such as payment history and credit, is not released unless the customer chooses to give this information to the AES. | 0 | en |

Experts quickly connected the alleged shooter, a truck driver named Robert Bowers, with Gab’s anti-Semitism by reviewing his posts, which were publicly available but have since been removed from the site, which itself was shuttered for several days after the attack but is once again available. When the Southern Poverty Law Center analyzed Bowers’s posts, it identified central themes that included “white genocide” and “globalism” — a buzzword often referring to anti-Jewish conspiracy theories. Similar analyses of his posts presented equivalent conclusions.
We have a unique set of data that includes not just all of Bowers’s Gab posts but also all Gab posts since the site launched in 2016. The daily use of Gab is climbing. When the Pittsburgh shooting occurred, we recognized that our data could tell us more about both the accused shooter and his network — and possibly offer clues about who might escalate from online hate to violence.
AD

What did the alleged Pittsburgh shooter talk about on Gab, and with whom?
We used a custom API to scrape every post, reply and quote from every user on Gab, reaching back to the site’s launch in 2016. Our database includes all Gab posts, even those users subsequently deleted from the site. We used text-analysis methods in Python to analyze the massive volume of data.
Since joining Gab in January 2018, Bowers contributed 998 posts and replies to others’ posts. With text analytics of his nearly 1,000 posts, replies and quotes, we found overwhelmingly anti-Semitic ideations.
Bower’s two most commonly used words were “kike” and “jew,” often associated with terms like “vile” and “degenerate,” and many other anti-Semitic references as well. For example, he frequently used the hashtag “#everysingletime,” referring to an alt-right Jewish conspiracy theory in which Jews are behind orchestrated efforts to attack white culture and values.
AD
AD
Gab has “groups” in which members with similar interests hold conversations. Many of Bowers’s posts were in these groups, especially the “Guns of Gab,” “Supremacy,” “Immigration” and “Anti-white” groups, which reinforced his interest in firearms and white-supremacist philosophy.
Bowers boasted about 600 friends and followers on Gab but was far less active than many in his network. Judging by the number of messages sent among members, Bowers was tightly connected with a select few members of this network and loosely connected with many.
Comparing Bowers to the typical Gab user
We compared Bowers’s activity and his social network to the larger Gab community. Our analysis suggests that while Bowers does not perfectly represent the rest of Gab’s members, substantial similarities exist.
AD
We gathered the 200 most commonly used hashtags on Gab to compare to Bowers’s. The hashtags included #altright and #whitegenocide, themes in Bowers’s posts. Bowers’s posts and the most popular Gab hashtags both included references to political conspiracy theories such as #qanon and #releasethememo.
But Bowers’s posts and replies differ in his nearly exclusive focus on anti-Semitic ideas. In the rare times he touched on other topics, those were general alt-right political discussions about white supremacy and related themes. The average Gab user was much more focused on general current political topics, with hashtags including #maga, #trump, #fakenews and #politics.
The larger network active on Gab
AD
AD
Gab conversations are heavily laden with alt-right themes. As you can see in the illustration above, since 2016, one of the hashtags most commonly used on Gab has been #altright.
Other common Gab hashtags from the same data set suggest broader anti-immigration themes, including #buildthewall, #bansharia and #banislam. These hashtags were among the most common in a set of more than 30 million posts — indicating that these sentiments are pervasive. As you can see, Gab also overflows with political conspiracy theory discussions, with such common hashtags as #pizzagate, #draintheswamp and #deepstate. Gun rights activism shows up in hashtags such as #2a and #nra.
Users have posted roughly 30 million comments on Gab since its 2016 launch. Below you can see that the volume of Gab activity by posts, replies and quotes has grown over time.
White supremacy and anti-Semitism have endured in the United States. The Anti-Defamation League documented a 57 percent increase in anti-Semitic incidents from 2016 to 2017. FBI hate crime statistics for 2016 show that more than half of faith-based crimes were against Jews.
AD
AD
After the August 2017 Unite the Right rally in Charlottesville, many expected the alt-right to retreat from physical gatherings and return to digital realms. Instead, alt-right gangs such as the Proud Boys, the Atomwaffen Division and their followers, have become bolder, engaging in street violence at rallies, bomb plots and killings.
Our analyses show that Bowers is not alone in his hatred. Gab has roughly 450,000 users, and while many do not espouse anti-Semitism, a sizable number do and regularly connect online to share their ideology. Our analyses also show that these individuals are not difficult to find or monitor.
The challenge comes in knowing when they will escalate from online speech to real-world action.

I'm left to guess why you don't agree.
I believe there should be transparency and openness, and Catholic orgs shouldn't be excluded.
If they are going to strongly plead for money, they need to at least tell the people to whom they are pleading just how much money is being given to that org's organizational heads and the Catholic on-air apologists.
Today I heard the fundraiser say IHR operates "on a shoestring budget."
Yet if you check the 990 IRS reports, you will see that Doug Sherman, owner of IHR, takes a salary of $150,000 a year, plus benefits. Mr. Sherman is allegedly already quite wealthy from his land development business, but he has no problem taking a huge salary, much of it likely from donations by simple Catholics far, far less wealthy that he.
Then there are the on-air apologist on IHR. Staples, Akin, Madrid. Each of them are taking well over 6 figure salaries. They are not alone.
Yet IHR falsely claims "a shoestring budget." Yes, an expose is in order. | 0 | en |

Or at least a partial exchange. We learned in the past that trying to pass a comprehensive package that takes on all aspects is nearly impossible. Taking it on in pieces has a better chance. Trade DACA for a few other items like stronger border security and mandatory e-Verify.
That is, IF D's are willing to even give an inch. So far I haven't seen them willing to give in on anything regarding the issue. At least Trump and the R's have put DACA on the table. The D's need to put something substantial R's want on the table too. | 0 | en |

Metal Band Shirts
I do not know much about this group, or hip-hop/rap in general for that matter, but I noticed on TV one of the members of the group wearing an Iron Maiden band shirt, and recently in a Sports Illustrated issue, a member wore a Megadeth band shirt. Does anyone know if Three 6 Mafia likes metal? I am interested to find out since it is such an unrelated genre to rap and I am a fan of metal (hence my curiosity).

Europe’s Economic Suicide - motti_s

Yes! A Paul Krugman column. I think its worthwhile for anyone to try to
understand his economic assertions on the crisis.
The most important part is understanding what is aggregate demand and what
things like interest rates tell us.
Actually might change your worldview. For example that sometimes individually
rational behavior (deleveraging instead of investing in a crisis) can be
disastrous for the economy as a whole.

I would definitely like to see an actual professional poll done on why anyone and everyone "leaves"...do they leave the institution? do they leave the "faith"? What is it precisely that they're "leaving"...
And I would like to see it cover every age group...I'm definitely a senior-plus and so many of us just got fed up and have left, or just occasionally drop in...none of us, having had Catholic education even through college, never, ever thought we would be in the position of leaving the Catholic church. Maybe it has left us??
I really would like to see decent research on why golden agers are leaving...becoming a "none" and a "done" is not where we thought we'd be at this age...I think a poll/research would show that we old folk and the young folk are leaving for precisely the same reasons. | 0 | en |

Another great article that includes a sound and true depiction of my experience of Boston College as well. BC need not apologize nor take a back seat to any school in terms of its Catholic identity. It is running strong through every vein in its being.
I wonder if the marriage of big time college athletics and the Catholic university might merit our attention in terms of preservation and development of the mission of the school. I get part of Burtchaell's concern over the lay character of the Boards of Directors of these schools. Men and women are appointed sometimes with much greater emphasis on their ability to contribute than on their ability to loudly support the mission of the school. In occasionally selling out to the god of sports may we not be sending the message that the mission is not paramount but the bottom line financially is? | 0 | en |
