its still a matter of trust and no I do not trust our current administration. |

I think mr. paul should focus more on the people and restoring this economy than playing mind game with the president. |

Liberals criticizing Rand need take a deep hard look at themselves in the mirror. How can you oppose Bush's water-boarding and torture, yet laugh at the fact that the door is being left open for our President to kill an non combatant American without due process? Senator Paul posited an important and substantive qu... |

His answer covered all people within the US. whether Muslim or non-Muslim. Outside the US is a very different question, and one that has already been answered. Yes, we will use deadly force to stop an American citizen who chooses to leave the country and plot the deaths of others. |
I don't see why the GOP has a problem with this. They didn't have a problem killing millions of innocent Iraqi's without provocation. Iraq did nothing to the US which would have caused such a response. The GOP used our fear, unfounded as it turned out to be, as a weapon to get the invasion they wanted. They repeate... |

Define: American...this is the question. Their has been a lot of information as to who a: American Citizen, U.S. Cititizen, State Citizen, Sovereign, Freeman...these are all offices with different hats. DO YOU KNOW WHO YOU ARE? |

It must have hurt Eric Hitler very much to acknowledge due process and constitutional restraints on government. |

I am still not satisfied with Holder's response. What if an American-born terrorist lived 5 years in another country, and came back to the US and engaged in 2-3 terrorist acts. But then before the drones came, he stopped attacking and went to a cafe to sit down and eat. Then next he meets with Osama Bin Laden's sis... |
These are important questions! Until Holder answers these and more, I will filibuster! |

commit the crime of treason that could risk lives of Americans or an imminent threat to other American lives.. Ill throw whatever it takes to stop you...... 'Merica. |

My question is what is the definition of "engaged in combat". Didn't they call Dorner a "domestic terrorist"??? So, wouldn't he be considered engaged in combat? |
12. Willie K. |
It is important to think through these situations and debate what is and is not appropriate. However, no person is able to predict the potential situations a President may face. For instance, is an American citizen who goes on TV or the Internet, confesses to terror and vows to commit additional acts on US soil, st... |

Sorry, but, Paul seems a little fruity to me. Good to see he's working but, is this really of concern? |

It's just the same questions that Holder was asked a dozen times during his testimony. Why couldn't he answer "no" at that time? Yes, it was because Sen. Paul brought greater attention to the need for this question to be answered "yes" or "no" that Holder finally did. |
16. Paul |
How did we elect a President that thinks it's ok to have a kill list? |
Paul earned my vote. I'll never trust politicians like Bush or Obama ever again!! |
18. Voice_of_reason |
It's a shame you have to pin politicians down on the simple questions (both Repubs and Dems). Why didn't Holder and Brennan give direct answers to the direct questions during the Congressional hearings. We the people deserve better from both political parties–"say what you mean, mean what you say". I still would've... |

Here are some quotes from an article that put it all in perspective; the question at the end is my own: |
Forced cuts are 'a win for nobody' |
“Forced Cuts are a Win for Nobody: The recently enacted sequestration cuts will further fuel the disparity between corporate America and the wealthy versus the middle class and the poor. The truth is that there is no debt crisis that was necessary to address with these cuts. As our economy grows and people get back... |
“Since the latter part of 2012, Washington policymakers have been fixated on federal budget reduction. Yet none of those conversations have led, nor are likely to lead, to the creation of a single job. The American public deserves better. The reason given by Republicans and conservatives for the urgent need to dras... |

What short-sighted rediculous hypothetical questions will Paul come up with next? Can the president use a drone to attack a smurf village? |
22. revolting peasant |
I guess you can't blame Paul. He needs to get himself in the news, even if he is grandstanding about something stupid. I just wish the American people understood what fillerbustering was and realized how stupid the system is. |

There actually are posters who are paid / volunteer shills that aim to control the websites. Many posters have strong opinions, myself included, but you can recognize the shills in the volume of comments they make, which are always bold and persistent in presenting their stubborn bias without having any discipline ... |

Funny reading the response from the right wing supporters. No trust in Obama blah blah blah. Yet their "leadership" is wasting time arguing trying to prove point which there is no precedent for. Just ridiculous. There have not been drone strikes in US. This play on paranoia is stupid. No drone is going to be droppi... |

Paul, like his father, has accomplished absolutely nothing but in his time in office. All he does is grand stand and say no to everything. He has not and will not pass a single piece of legislation. What a waste of air. |

As you can judge from the page below, the vertical space between the text and the header line and the text and the footer line is not equal..... |
enter image description here |
This is much more prominent in a PDF reader so I am trying to get equal space. How do I accomplish this using these settings? |

Try using the native \areaset command from Koma-Script instead of the geometry package: |
% Set the typeset area (trim - 2*margin) |
Note by the way that if your book has to be printed, you might also want to add a binding correction to it, which can also be done with \areaset, for example, for a 1cm binding correction: |
The problem might also come from the fact that you're drawing rules in the header/footer manually. The Koma-Script documentation explains how do draw a separator for headers/footers: |
and the corresponding for the footer will draw lines between the header and the main content, instead of drawing it inside the header, so that might just fix your issue. |

I've changed the class settings, removed geometry package and added the \areaset command, but the problem still remains. Instead, the whole page seems to shift up a bit. In case you are unclear, I have updated the image in the question. – umar Jul 5 '11 at 12:26 |
Raphink, is this tested by you? – umar Jul 10 '11 at 14:53 |
It's the settings I use for my own books, and I haven't noticed that problem. That said I don't use lines both up and down, so maybe I have the same issue and I just don't see it. See also my edited answer about not drawing a rule in the header/footer. – ℝaphink Jul 11 '11 at 5:29 |

Canary phone: Motorola's new RAZR? |
There's a decent chance this is Motorola's upgrade to their ever-popular RAZR phone, codenamed "Canary." A beauty to look at, the Canary features a mirrored surface and wraparound speaker at the bottom of the phone. Inside you'll find a 2-megapixel digital camera and 17 MB of internal storage that can be upgraded up to... |

Runner Superfoods: Chocolate Milk To The Rescue |
Why is chocolate milk so great? |
October 2, 2013 |
The Furnace Chocolate Milk |
“If I could only have one food for the rest of my life?” Vern asks himself in the 1986 coming of age classic, Stand By Me. He immediately answers his question without a thought: “That's easy—Pez. Cherry-flavored Pez. No question about it.” |
Vern is a chubby kid, hanging out with his friends around a campfire. But what about runners? If they had one food for the rest of their lives, what would it be? Even though it’s a drink, chocolate milk might be your answer. It definitely is a great recovery drink. |
In an article for Runner’s World, Pamela Nisevich Bede, M.S., R.D., wrote, “… research began to uncover that a blend of carbohydrates and protein, in a ratio of four grams of carbohydrate to one gram of protein, was effective in promoting muscle recovery following endurance exercise.” It turns out that chocolate milk n... |
Leslie Bonci, resident “The Furnace” expert and sports dietitian, preaches eating food that makes you feel good. Often times, that means eating food that you enjoy. “Chocolate milk is great for recovery,” Bonci says. “It’s also something people like.” |
Bonci says that three things are extremely important when fueling after a race. For one, you want to rehydrate. Second, you need to refill the glycogen or stored carbohydrates the body has just depleted. Third, running is a breakdown activity, so you need fuel that will help with rebuilding muscle fibers. |
Chocolate milk can help with all three of these things. It’s a fluid, so it rehydrates. The carbohydrates in chocolate help replete glycogen and stored carbs (chocolate milk is better than regular milk because of the added ingredients). And the protein helps rebuild and recover muscles after exercise. In other words, c... |
All is not lost if you don’t like chocolate milk. Many energy bars have the four-to-one carb to protein ratio that Nisevich Bede referred to. However, make sure you are also rehydrating. (For a more in-depth look at recovery, read this.) |
If you could only have one food for the rest of your life, what would it be? If you’re a runner, chocolate milk might be a decent call. |
For me? Cookies and cream ice cream, no doubt about it. |
The Malcontent on: Pigeons |
Why do pigeons think they’re better than us? They have nests, feathers, and droppings. We have satellites, nuclear submarines, and Sherlock. In every conceivable sense, a human is better than a pigeon. Now, I confess I’m hardly the manifestation of physical perfection – indeed, I often get out of breath brushing my tee... |
