Hello, Dianne

Haz1558

You really don't like small grids, do you, BR? I kind of accept what comes although I do prefer the bigger ones as well.
3:23 am
lynxxx

You have heard about the murdered girl Jill Meagher Haz. Such overwhelming sadness and concern here for her - even before they found her. Her death has rocked our whole community to the core
3:24 am
lynxxx

hi Dianne
3:24 am
Haz1558

Yes, lynxxx, the tragedy has been covered here. A horrible thing to have happened.
3:25 am
Dianne

It's in today's newspaper here. Some days I hate to even read the paper. We are still reeling here over the ferry accident that claimed 39 people's lives.
3:28 am
lynxxx

yes, the ferry collision made the news very quickly here. 39 is too many but seems like it could have been a lot worse
3:28 am

"Maybe this loss creates a movement that demands respect for women and says violence against women, violence against anyone, is unacceptable," she said. ... I hope so but am not optimistic
3:30 am
lynxxx

sadly that is probably true BR
3:31 am
Dianne

This is a maritime city - this just should not have happened at all on a fairly clear night without much water traffic around the crash site. Both captainns were arrested and are out on bail pending the investigation.
3:33 am
o-o

I said this before but I find it so incredulous: Women in the US military deployed overseas have a greater chance of being assaulted by a fellow military than getting killed. What is worse is being deployed again with the assailant.
3:35 am
Haz1558

You mean they're deployed together even after the assault has been investigated etc?
3:35 am
o-o

Yes
3:36 am
Haz1558

So, there's an acceptable level of violence against women in the army.
3:36 am
Haz1558

There's not a lot of point in a female reporting anything, is there?
3:37 am
lynxxx

We have had a rash (yes I know!) of instances like that recently too (although not whilst deployed) - although a lot of instances of men/boys being assaulted too. Being talked about in the highest places but then seems to go quiet again - until the next episode
3:37 am
o-o

I cannot understand how our representatives can let this go on ..... but then our representatives prize power over the interests of constituents
3:39 am
lynxxx

maybe Bastardization still has a place in the armed forces?
3:41 am
o-o

In the US the military simply are commodities ... use them, abuse them and lose them ... just budget items
3:41 am
lynxxx

Can the political reps truly have any influence on the Military - at those levels?
3:41 am
Haz1558

Or is it a case of the military having their own rules/courts etc?
3:41 am
o-o

They can start taking stars from generals
3:43 am
Haz1558

And leave nasty wee holes in their uniforms?
3:44 am
o-o

A talking point is that the military is all volunteers ... since when is the well-being of a volunteer less than that of a draftee?
3:45 am
lynxxx

Its hard I guess...the military needs to be a 'tight' self contained community but being so insular it leaves makes it easier for abusive types to get away with 'murder' so to speak
3:45 am
Haz1558

You're volunteering to serve your country, with the expectation that while your country can't fully protect you from violence from your enemies, it can at least protect you from violence from fellow soldiers.
3:46 am
lynxxx

Yes - agree Haz.
3:47 am

The investigations are a farce .... liars protecting criminals

it's political theater anyway, i'm sure you aren't missing anything.

oh I mean in general, haven't seen the latest one, not interested
6:12 am

we don't talk about politics -- our votes would cancel each other's out

also, not having a TV helps, I find the TV has more disinformation than information...

ruby, is your husband french?
6:14 am
rubyfoo

no, he's from St. Louis but we don't agree on politics
6:14 am
Buggie

ahhh, french couples with opposing political views are extremely rare
6:15 am
Buggie

the french aren't that political, however there's a clear divide between left and right
6:16 am
rubyfoo

but I think they realize that they made a mistake in voting in Hollande and will probably bring Sarkozy back in the next election
6:16 am

actually, no, sarkozy doesn't stand a chance in hell
6:16 am

we are nothing like a French couple!!!!
6:16 am
Buggie

the french hate him
6:17 am
rubyfoo

you think? they are certainly dissatisfied with Hollande
6:17 am
Buggie

hollande is still on probation, as most of what is going on is the result of sarkozy's decisions

6:49 am
uusue2

thanks, molly, we are still waiting for a definitive diagnosis, sounds like it will be a few days more
6:50 am
uusue2

the hospital is actually kind of nice, all the rooms are single rooms and have chairs that make into a single bed if family want to stay (which I do)
6:51 am
MollyL

That's good. At least they make you as comfortable as possible. My son always stays over when his wife is in too.
6:52 am
uusue2

everybody really has been very nice. And I guess the gastroenterologist will see us after all (it's the same one that wouldn't take him as a self-pay patient when I called a couple of weeks ago)
6:53 am
MollyL

There is some irony in that.
6:53 am
Buggie

hospitals can be quite pleasant if you allow them to be - a complete break from everyday worries (as you can't do anything about them from where you are), and the nurses and cleaning personnel can be quite happy to chat with a nice patient, most people they deal with don't give them any personal consideration

Yes, it relates to being slapped with a fish for missing obvious words. Originally there were particular fish for missing plurals, others for not seeing past tenses etc.

have to share: I was gifted a gold bracelet. From a very dear friend to my mother's, who has been very important to me in my youth. She died and left me this and some other jewelry in her codicil. Am so happy with it. Am wearing it now and thinking of her.

It's actually Old English and means not Christian or Jewish

it says here it started as a referral to people who lived on the 'wild heaths'. Developed to mean 'wild people from the heaths'. Then into people with a different belief from 'us'. Etc.

11:53 am

If its percentages then Obama is ahead so i last saw on a chart of the US via facebook
12:21 pm
Ouwachita

He is the only one that blames Bush for everything...he has had 3.5 years to do something worthwhile and all he does is take vacations with his wife and 200 friends at a time
12:21 pm

weren't some of his debt reducing initiatives blocked by the republicans in congress?

So he want sto support the rich and screw the rest of the country? what kind of president would he be?
12:27 pm
MollyL

For a President who campaigned on change (Yes we can!) Obama has a piss poor track record. And if you believe that The President is powerless over Congress and The House, then we might as well not have a President.
12:28 pm

yes bills can be vetoed
12:28 pm

Mind you, I find it funny that people blame Obama for not managing to change things, when every single thing he's tried to do has been opposed by the republicans just to spite him. They blocked the budget until it was almost too late
12:31 pm
Ouwachita

Democrats have historically taxed everyone in order to give money and benefits to people who don't want to work because they get more than the working class in the final tally

Hi all
12:36 pm
Buggie

Ouwachita, even extremely bright and motivated people don't necessarily find a new job quickly, being unemployed is actually very hard to live with for most people. It's only right that society helps them in their time of need
12:36 pm
Ouwachita

I pay over $1,000 per month for my healthcare...out of my own pocket
12:36 pm

I so agree Buggie but here in the US we have so many that are not getting help and a lot who are that dont really need it as much as others do
12:36 pm

aren't you fortunate that you can afford $1000 per month? --- very few can
12:37 pm

12:37 pm

My husband and I managed for over a year without any handouts and a $2600 house payment. We took whatever jobs we needed to and could find that we were overqualified for to pay the bills until he got a job in his chosen field.

a part of the healthcare bill offers affordable insurance to anyone, my brother found a good policy that covers all existing conditions, each state has a different name for it - if I think of it, I'll post...try google for something like assigned risk health coverage for your state
12:37 pm

So it's official. It doesn't matter who is President. Because it's the Republicans who block everything that are responsible for what is wrong with the US. Got it.
12:37 pm
Ouwachita

good for you chick
12:39 pm
Buggie

I'm certainly very lucky I live in France. When my type 1 diabetes was discovered nearly 3 years ago, all my bills were automatically paid for by my social security. I wouldn't have been able to afford hospital if I had to pay for it myself. Or the equipment and medication I need every day
12:39 pm

Molly depends on wether a Republican or a Democrat is the winner in the end as to who does or doesnt do what
12:39 pm

12:40 pm

Still, whatever the party, the opinion here is that the President is powerless. Wow.

12:40 pm

We should definitely all move somewhere else as we are told constantly here how much better their countries are than ours.

France does have an excellent system, buggie. The last time we were there I got caught in Honfleur with an intestinal infection. The hotel clerk called a doctor, who made a housecall, spent 40 minutes with us and gave us 2 prescriptions -- the total bill came to 25 euros ($40 Canadian) -- didn't even bother to claim it on our insurance when I got home!

the President's powers are only limited by the opposing party...which tries to keep him/her in check...if his party is in control, he has a free reign to do anything he/she wishes
12:44 pm

Yeah, there are some good wines from here, but I usually prefer the ones from further south

“Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It's not just in some of us; it's in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.” -Marrianne Williamson

Crossy, we've evolved into a 2 party system. Many people are not happy about that.
8:12 pm

ahh,i understand gwen
8:13 pm
nrkii

I think if we had congressional term limits, we'd probably evolve into 3 or 4 parties within a decade or so.
8:13 pm
Book Doctor Gwen

george blinkin' washington warned us about parties, and especially about having only 2 parties, and i guess that's why we did it. (actually we have more than 2, but the others are too small to count in most races)
8:13 pm
MollyL

Evolved is such a pretty word. A lot of power and influence has gone into forcing this country into a two party option.
8:14 pm
cosdem

A's done. 30 to go

Awesome Cosdem!
8:14 pm
Book Doctor Gwen

we need proportional representation. term limits does not make for more parties, IMO
8:15 pm
crosshair

well,i suppose we are not much better.we have the liberal,the ndp,the pc and partis quebequois and some fringe parties like the green party etc
8:15 pm
nrkii

I chose "evolved" specifically. We have had more parties in the past, and different parties even when it was only 2. But over time... we landed here. And yes, there is a tremendous amount of power and money keeping us locked in this 2 party mess.
8:15 pm

huffy (def) 1. Easily offended; touchy. 2. Irritated or annoyed; indignant.

I had old school skates--metal with wheels. Not shoe skates, the kind that attached to the shoes.
8:40 pm

Yes, Molly, I know what the word means. But I've not seen anyone grow indignant when enable is "called out."
8:40 pm

Ugh.

What difference does it make if there are strange words? ENABLE is the final arbiter ... nothing else matters.

Ph 4/10! I am finally done with grid! I dove in 4/4 the grid at flip time and made a di4/5 in the puzzle.Then finished the rest later. I was able to find all the words am 4/6 all the letters in the grid.Now here's a story.I watched the debate between Barack & Mi 4/5. I stood in front of the TV ar 4/5 folded in disgust as Romney acted like a jerk. I kept wondering to myself what the he4/10 was going through his mi4/6. That guy is totally insa4/4! I wish that Barack Obama could've de 4/10ed Romney in the head or sma4/6ed his face in. Although many people are not so en 6/21ed with Obama, I like him. I wish I could be in 5/10duced to him in person.Finally,I think Jim Lehrer did an excellent job mo 7/32ing the debate. He did not give the candidates any mo 8/55 looks, even though he had reasons to. He probably wanted to wring Romney's ne 4/9 when he said he would cut funding for PBS. Some people are undecided who to vote for, but I know I will definitely support the democratic pa 5/16 in Nov.By the way,Obama is not a pa6/30. Husband is acting very do 5/16 waiting for computer. I'm sorry I om4/5ted several grid words,but it's very hard to do a story that includes all the words. I am going to da 4/5 on in4/4 my bed and watch some TV. I will be back wh 4/9 the grid flips and start the grid an 4/8. Goodnight for now to all babblers.
