Voters see the two major party nominees as exemplifying what is worst about their respective parties, and they want something better.
1clean
Voters who meet me and hear me speak know that I am sincere, know that I understand the issues deeply and have workable solutions, and know that I stand on principle against cronyism and corporatism and in favor of the rule of law and the public interest.
1clean
People like the fact that I stand for a Virginia that is both Open-minded and Open for Business.
1clean
There are precedents of independent governors dealing effectively with the legislature, and indeed a wise third-party governor can have greater effectiveness than a major party governor.
1clean
Libertarians share many policy positions with each of the major parties.

Michel advised her on May 25th as follows: "There is a grave legal question involved as to whether or not these letters are the property of your mother's estate and an appropriate legal action is contemplated to determine such question."
1clean
He did neither.
1clean
He sat on them 'til some reporter's warned him that they were hot merchandise.
1clean
To cap it all he permitted publication of these stolen letters by the press, although they were ordered by him to be under lock and key.
1clean
A reporter from the Cleveland Press phoned on Monday last.
1clean
He said that he wanted to check on a statement made by Williamson, since he claimed that while he was Mrs. P's guardian he had never heard from Isabelle.
1clean
We said; "No comment".
1clean
On Dec. 6th 1954 she had a power of attorney duly executed and witnessed by our attorney in Recine, Wis. in favor of Maud Gorham of Marion, Ohio especially to deal in all matters pertaining to Carrie Fulton Phillips.
1clean
We have not seen the Press article of this week, nor one the Marion Star or any Columbus paper might have had, covering an interview with Williamson.
1clean
In our business of antiques, that of antiquarians, we have and must have in certain states, licensed appraisers.
1clean
Then of course there seem to be in this picture, so called historians, like the man you mentioned over the phone, Ed. K. Gross etc.
1clean
We even had inquiries from the Wisconsin State College, D. F. Costello, Prof.
1clean
A historian from Minneapolis wrote: would we sell the letters?
1clean
John, Isabelle does not want to sell the letters unless we are forced to do so by the judge and his court under the auspices of estate jurisdiction.
1clean
She has never seen them, knew nothing of their existence and does not care to see them now or ever.
1clean
There are to ways out: 1) according to Paragraph 1 & 2 of this page and the preceeding paragraph, as we see it.
1clean
In the second instance we wonder if you might take for a third of the net or how you would like to be compensated.
1clean
In one week's time, the Verwoerd Government intends to inaugurate its Republic.
1clean
The decision has been taken by little over half of the White community; it is opposed by every articulate group amongst the African, Coloured and Indian communities, who constitute the majority of this country.
1clean
We have been excluded from the Commonwealth, and condemned 95 to 1 at the United Nations.
1clean
Our trade is being boycotted, and foreign capital is being withdrawn.
1clean
The country is becoming an armed camp, the Government preparing for civil war with increasingly heavy police and military apparatus, the non-white population for a general strike and long-term non-cooperation with the Government.
1clean
We, on our part, in the name of the African people - a majority of South Africans - and on the authority given us by 1 400 elected African representatives at the Pietermaritzburg Conference of 25 and 26 March, have put forward serious proposals for a way out of the crisis.
1clean
We have called on the Government to convene an elected National Convention of representatives of all races without delay, and to charge that Convention with the task of drawing up a new Constitution for this country which would be acceptable to all racial groups.
1clean
Stated bluntly, the alternatives appear to be these: talk it out, or shoot it out.
1clean
The South African Indian Congress, the only substantial Indian community organisation, has welcomed and endorsed the call for a National Convention.
1clean
A substantial European body of opinion, represented by both the Progressive and the Liberal Parties, has endorsed our call.
1clean
Support for a National Convention has come also from the bulk of the English language press, from several national church organisations, and from many others.
1clean
But where, Sir, does the United Party stand?
1clean
We have yet to hear from this most important organisation - the main organisation in fact of anti-Nationalist opinion amongst the European community.
1clean
We in South Africa, and the world outside expect an answer.
1clean
Silence at this time enables, Dr. Verwoerd to lead us onwards towards the brink of disaster.
1clean
We realise that aspects of our proposal raise complicated problems.
1clean
Are all groups to be consulted before a constitutional change is made?
1clean
On our part the door to such discussion has always been open.
1clean
We have approached you and your Party before, and suggested that matters of difference be discussed.
1clean
To date we have had no reply: Nevertheless we still hold the door open.
1clean
We urge you strongly to speak out now.

NASA celebrates 30th anniversary of first shuttle launch; announces new homes for retired shuttles
1clean
NASA Administrator Charles Bolden announces where four space shuttle orbiters will be permanently displayed at the conclusion of the Space Shuttle Program during an event commemorating the 30th anniversay of the first shuttle launch on April 12, 2011.
1clean
NASA celebrated the launch of the first space shuttle Tuesday at an event at the Kennedy Space Center (KSC) in Cape Canaveral, Florida.
1clean
On April 12, 1981, Space Shuttle Columbia lifted off from the Kennedy Space Center on STS-1, the first space shuttle mission.
1clean
NASA held a ceremony commemorating the date outside the hangar, known as Orbiter Processing Facility-1, for Space Shuttle Atlantis, which is being prepped for its final mission which will be STS-135, which will be the last Space Shuttle mission.
1clean
At the ceremony, NASA Administrator Charles Bolden announced the locations that would be given the three remaining Space Shuttle orbiters following the end of the Space Shuttle program.
1clean
Discovery has already been retired following the completion of STS-133 last month, its 39th mission.
1clean
Discovery is undergoing decommissioning and currently being prepped for display by removing toxic materials from the orbiter.
1clean
"We want to thank all of the locations that expressed an interest in one of these national treasures," said Bolden to the gathered crowd which contained many KSC employees.
1clean
In the end, these choices provide the greatest number of people with the best opportunity to share in the history and accomplishments of NASA's remarkable Space Shuttle Program.
1clean
These facilities we've chosen have a noteworthy legacy of preserving space artifacts and providing outstanding access to U.S. and international visitors."
1clean
In the end, these choices provide the greatest number of people with the best opportunity to share in the history and accomplishments of NASA's remarkable Space Shuttle Program.

U.S. Senator John Cornyn, Republican from Texas, issued a statement regarding the rejection of Johnson Space Center (JSC) in Houston, Texas as a location.
1clean
Houston has played a critical role throughout the life of the space shuttle, but it is clear political favors trumped common sense and fairness in the selection of the final locations for the orbiter fleet."
1clean
Cornyn's statement added, "There is no question Houston should have been selected as a final home for one of the orbiters — even Administrator Bolden stated as much.
1clean
In a statement, Governor of Washington Chris Gregoire said, "The Museum of Flight put a tremendous amount of effort into landing a retired shuttle in the Pacific Northwest.
1clean
Other items include various shuttle simulators which will be given to the Adler Planetarium in Chicago, Illinois, the Evergreen Aviation & Space Museum of McMinnville, Oregon, and Texas A&M's Aerospace Engineering Department.
1clean
NASA is also offering shuttle heat shield tiles to schools and universities that want to share technology and a piece of space history with their students.
1clean
The 30th anniversary of the first shuttle mission coincided with the 50th anniversary of the first manned space flight when Yuri Gagarin lifted off aboard Vostok 1 into space.
1clean
The document which had the stamp Protected B on every page detailed various security vulnerabilities of the NEMISIS database which is used by officers to track and prosecute environmental law-breakers.
1clean
However, on the document, it referred to the database as National Enforcement and Emergency Management Information System and Intelligence System, adding the words "and Emergency" to the name.
1clean
Environment Canada spokesperson Julie Hahn said they apply to letters of complaint, criticism or injury, research or scientific notes and findings that do n`t have any conclusion, and Treasury Board letters, agendas and minutes that do n`t deal with subjects of national interest.
1clean
Environment Minister John Baird has asked government officials how such documents that are supposed to be stored in "approved security cabinets" wound up on the street.
1clean
"I'm told two things: that it's neither classified nor secret and that it's stuff that could be available under access to information," Baird said.
1clean
Environment Canada spokeswoman Sujata Raisinghani told CBC News the department will look into the incident.
1clean
"We take document security seriously," she said, but refused to give any more details about how the papers came to be on a road.
1clean
Paul Dewar, an Ottawa New Democrat MP, said the combined security lapses raise serious questions about the government's ability to secure sensitive documents.
1clean
Dewar says that bureaucrats of the Conservative government have complained to him about document security to the point that they ca n`t share the information with their own colleagues.
1clean
However, when a government document has been found on the streets, the government then says it wasn't particularly sensitive.
1clean
"This government is so consumed with control of information and secrecy yet they don't seem to be able to get the fundamentals right," Dewar said.

As the Western United States burns up with over seventy forest fires in thirteen states and Germany deals with the aftermath of devastating floods, the world's richest man, not counting Vladimir Putin, rocketed himself up to outer space for ten minutes at a cost of two point five million dollars every 60 seconds.

A Democracy Now! Segment on Thursday looked at the irony and dangers of billionaires fighting to privatize and monopolize space infrastructure while the Earth burns due to the man made climate catastrophe.
1clean
As an example of his utter lack of self-awareness, Bezos's own comments, after returning from his space adventure, admitted that his wealth is created by not only his customers, but his workers.
1clean
This, of course, reminds readers and listeners of the ProPublica story that exposed how little he and the billionaire class pay in taxes.
1clean
I'm looking at you, Richard Branson.
1clean
And so I reluctantly thank the goddess of irony.
1clean
We live in a country where a living wage for all working men and women is somehow not affordable.
1clean
Mr. McIntosh, my question to you is, how does the space programs by these various millionaire -- billionaires --
1clean
It shows the failure of trickle down economics upon which you base a lot of your, you know, your stances and everything.
1clean
You know, I'd like a better understanding on, you know, you're talking about welfare and everything else.
1clean
I -- I don't think it's the right role of government to tell people how to spend their money.
1clean
But everyone in my neighborhood pays a higher percentage of their income in taxes than he pays on the beyond exorbitant and exceedingly gratuitous wealth that he lives off of.
1clean
According to the report published by ProPublica last month, the median American household brings in around seventy thousand a year and pays fourteen percent in federal income taxes.
1clean
In short, Americans subsidized the fruits of Jeff Bezos' midlife crisis.
1clean
I worry that we are getting closer and closer to the experience of the little people in the sci-fi film Elysium, starring Matt Damon.
1clean
And those that remain on Earth, the rest of us, continue working in what could realistically be a future Amazon warehouse.
1clean
Later in the Democracy Now! segment, the broadcast aired parts of an MSNBC interview with Bezos, who, in completely out of touch fashion, adamantly expressed that we should preserve our, quote, beautiful gem, end quote, also known as Earth, by transporting polluting industries to outer space, something he acknowledged would take, quote, decades to achieve, end quote.

Strayer knows much of what he knows because of the experiments he runs at his Applied Cognition Laboratory in Salt Lake City.

Often, he measures how people perform one task once they are given a second task.
1clean
We think about multitasking as trying to do two separate, cognitively based tasks at the same time.
1clean
We do n’t do that well, and more and more people have these gadgets in the car they bring with them, or the car itself becomes a platform for multitasking, and we do n’t do it well.
1clean
But new things, new activities or new environments, demand you to pay attention, to allocate the prefrontal cortex to process some of that information that ’s new and novel.
1clean
Do you know anything, or think much about, multitasking and multitasking failures in other high-stakes settings beyond driving, whether it ’s military decisions or political decisions, business decisions?
1clean
So we ’ve looked in the medical domain, medical human factors: you can see it in terms of, say, delivery of medicine at a pharmacy.
1clean
If the pharmacist is constantly being interrupted with calls, they ’re going to fill the prescription incorrectly.
