If we do not push and push and push Nate Silver will be right and we will lose the senate.

Nate Silver revealed a new forecast on Sunday via his new venture, FiveThirtyEight.com, projecting that Republicans have about a 60 percent chance of wining at least 6 Senate seats to take control of the upper chamber in November.

When FiveThirtyEight last issued a U.S. Senate forecast — way back in July — we concluded the race for Senate control was a toss-up. That was a little ahead of the conventional wisdom at the time, which characterized the Democrats as vulnerable but more likely than not to retain the chamber.
Our new forecast goes a half-step further: We think the Republicans are now slight favorites to win at least six seats and capture the chamber. The Democrats’ position has deteriorated somewhat since last summer, with President Obama’s approval ratings down to 42 or 43 percent from an average of about 45 percent before. Furthermore, as compared with 2010 or 2012, the GOP has done a better job of recruiting credible candidates, with some exceptions.

Silver emphasizes that while his model favors the GOP, the number of seats could vary depending on several factors.
So our forecast might be thought of as a Republican gain of six seats — plus or minus five. The balance has shifted slightly toward the GOP. But it wouldn’t take much for it to revert to the Democrats, nor for this year to develop into a Republican rout along the lines of 2010.

So this woman from Australia does this performance piece for 28 days. She knits with her vagina.

I didn't even get the significance of the 28 days until I watched the video. I give her Kudos now. If she had balls they'd be brass.

First time I've done this but I would love positive vibe or prayers or white light sent to my mother

She suffered a stoke today. She can recognize me but cannot speak. The said it would be a long haul in rehab - at least 90 days.

I'm so afraid she will lose the ability to play cards and bridge and Mah Jong. These thing kept her moving. I am afraid fof what she will be able to do now. My mother stays alive by keeping busy.

The weird thing is I have be meaning to get her checked because her mother had a series of strokes and and I think that is what eventually killed her.

I can think of nothing else but her. I depend on her. I am devastated.

I thought I had heard it all. Then I was watching Lockup tonight and there was this

young woman who was arrested for drug possession or something and she has her head shaved about 3-4 inches behind the front hairline.

They asked her what happened and she said it was some sort of "process" that went bad while the beautician was trying to bleach her hair. Then she was asked again because it fell out in such a straight line and she said something about "that was where the curlers were" and that is when I realized that she indeed did this to herself.

Why? Because the drugs that she was trying to get at the pharmacy were for cancer patients, (I don't know the names. I assume they are powerful pain killers), and the officers said that she was probably putting her hair in a bandana to look like she was having chemotherapy.

So that is new to me. Just thought I'd share.

I am not sure of your new voting requirements but let me tell you if you have to get

a copy of your birth certificate you are screwed in Georgia!

I am helping a friend who is trying to get her teeth fixed here in Florida and only has a photo copy of her license which is expired. They will not take that. So I got on the site today to order a copy of her birth certificate and after I am done, (putting in my credit card into and everything) I am sent to a page that tells me to print it and guess how much it costs?

U.S. Vital records or Vital certificates $52.87 PLUS
VCN Georgia Vital records $54.00 for UPS Delivery or $34.00 for Regular Mail, (after ID requirements are met)

So they charge you $34 just to send the copies through the mail??????

This total is $86.87 for a copy of a birth certificate. She does not have a credit card and I don't know if there was an option for a debit card.

This is just one big fat rip off and I bet it was set up in place to screw people from being able to vote.

I wanted to put this in Georgia in case anyone doesn't know how much they are charging for this.

So there is this town in Columbia where all the young men have sex with donkeys

This video mostly talks to the people and the women think is it OK and the young boys talk about it like it is nothing, (one kid said he had over 100 donkeys).

But toward the end it kind of shows one man doing it with blurred out parts. Just to warn you.

I just never thought that this type of behavior is celebrated as normal!

So I accidentally stuck myself with an epi-pen today and called 911

and they came and I was alone and my heart was racing and one of them said they would rather take me to the hospital than leave me alone because of that. I think they called them PVC's that I was having.

I felt like an idiot.

So how did I accidently stick myself you ask? Well they give you 2 of them and one is to train with. I found it today and thought it was the training one. It wasn't.

Epi-pins, (sp) are used if you have a severe allergy to something that could be life threatening is you don't have immediate treatment. It is to stop alaphalactic shock and death.

I have heard this statement many times in my life: "Only you. This could only happen to you"

How much does a person know who isn't on the internet?

I have a relative who is very smart and very educated - from many years ago when the computer was in the computer room and you wrote computer language on those long yellow type pieces of paper.

And she thinks that martial law is coming to this country very soon - unless of course the magnetic poles shift and most people die from starvation.

Should I tell her?

March 5, 2014

Just to make sure. Bernie Sanders voted for the vets bill right? Because

one of my "new" ' "friends" says NO and also that he is a socialist and I think that this person is probably a fox news freak.

But I want to check here first because I don't want to give the wrong information.

Teeth pulled out of a baby's brain during surgery. GRAPHIC!!!

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2014/02/27/baby-brain-tumor-teeth_n_4866624.html?utm_hp_ref=mostpopular



A 4-month-old infant in Maryland may be the first person to have had teeth form in his brain as a result of a specific type of rare brain tumor, according to a new report of the case.

The boy is doing well now that his tumor has been removed, and doctors say the case sheds light on how these rare tumors develop.

Doctors first suspected something might be wrong when the child's head appeared to be growing faster than is typical for children his age. A brain scan revealed a tumor containing structures that looked very similar to teeth normally found in the lower jaw.

The child underwent brain surgery to have the tumor removed, during which doctors found that the tumor contained several fully formed teeth, according to the report. [14 Oddest Medical Cases]

After an analysis of tumor tissue, doctors determined the child had a craniopharyngioma, a rare brain tumor that can grow to be larger than a golf ball, but does not spread.
