10. Dead people can’t vote at IOC meetings
9. Obama distracted by 25 min meeting with Gen. McChrystal
8. Who cares if Obama couldn’t talk the IOC into Chicago? He’ll be able to talk Iran out of nukes.
7. The impediment is Israel still building settlements.
6. Obviously no president would have been able to acomplish it.
5. We’ve been quite clear and said all along that we didn’t want the Olympics.
4. This isn’t about the number of Olympics “lost”, it’s about the number of Olympics “saved” or “created”.
3. Clearly not enough wise Latina judges on the committee
2. Because the IOC is racist.
1. It’s George Bush’s fault.
1. Plants need sun, water and nutrients to grow. We need food, water, shelter, exercise and community to grow and thrive.
2. Healthy plants can withstand disease, pests and draught, at least for a little while. With reserves of time, money, space, energy and love we can withstand the little bumps in the road.
3. Native plants grow better and with less fuss then exotic plants. Develop your natural skills and talents instead of struggling to become an expert in all areas.
4. Every plant doesn’t have the same level of need for sun, water, and nutrients. Do what works for you, not what works for someone else.
5. Manure and bugs can help plants to grow better. The challenges in life often teach you the best lessons.
6. A garden is never the same. It is always changing, evolving and adapting. We need to be life long learners.
7. Plants have a dormant period when they rest and store energy for their next growth spurt. We too need time to rest and store up energy for the next stage in our growth.
8. Some plant combinations, like marigolds keeping bugs off of the tomato plants are complimentary, others like the ivy that smothers ever plant in its way are deadly. Your neighbors can help or hurt you. Be careful with who you associate.
9. Little weeds are easier to pull then big weeds with deep roots. Practice a little “daily weeding” in your life. Spend sometime every day on the area of your life that tends to get “weedy”. If you seem to accumulate clutter this could be as simple as spending 15 minutes a day de-cluttering.
10. The super huge vegetable doesn’t usually taste good and every gardener knows you can be overrun with zucchini. Bigger isn’t always better and more isn’t always what you really need or want. Know how much is enough for you.

1. Wear a Personal Flotation Device (PFD) - Always wear a PFD and insist everyone onboard wears one as well. Ninety percent of those who have drown in boating accidents are not wearing a life jacket. Use a correctly sized PFD suited for the activity being undertaken.
2. Don’t Drink While Boating - Alcohol magnifies boat induced fatigue and is a factor in 30 percent of all boating related fatalities.
3. Take a Boating Safety Class - Incredibly in 70 percent of all boating fatalities the operator has not taken a boating safety class. Research conducted by the National Association of State Boating Law Administrators (NASBLA) confirms this finding.
4. Take Charge of Your Safety - Boating like a professional implies being prepared for boating emergencies.
5. Learn the NavRules and Safety Procedures - Knowing the rules of the road will make you a safer boater. You will know what to anticipate of other operators on the water and they can expect the same of you.
6. Operate Conservatively and Maintain a Lookout - Operating at high speeds shortens reaction time and increases the energy contributed to a collision. Slow down for weather, poor visibility, crowded conditions, and navigational hazards. Keep a good lookout and encourage your passengers and crew to watch for boating hazards.
7. Check the Weather - Keep track of the weather and know the current marine forecast. Weather information is readily available from the National Weather Service through marine VHF radio broadcasts, the internet, radio facsimile, and by telephone. Know the weather limitations of your vessel. Heed wind and wave warnings.
8. Get a VSC - One the most proactive safety efforts you can make is to get a Vessel Safety Check (VSC) from the Coast Guard Auxiliary. The inspections are free and easy to obtain.
9. Install a CO Detector - Carbon Monoxide (CO) is hazard to boaters and use of a CO detector is very inexpensive insurance.
10. File a Float Plan - Help take the search out of search and rescue (SAR). Let others know where you plan to operate and who is onboard. Many marina operators will take float plans from their customers.

According to Gadling.com
1. The best way to store your boat is in a steel or wooden cradle specifically designed for your boat. Never use a cradle designed for another vessel because it may not support critical load points.
2. If you’re using jack stands, there should be no less than three pairs of jack stands placed under boats larger than 26 feet, and additional support at long overhangs.
3. Jack stand pads should always be placed as far out from the keel as possible to provide the most stability. A boat that is resting on the ground or loose gravel should have plywood placed under the base of the stands. Without this, rain and frost could cause the stand to settle into the earth causing the boat to tip over.
4. When positioned correctly, jack stands should not depress the hull or “point load,” where excessive weight at a single area can cause laminate failure.
5. Always use safety chains - never rope or wire - to tie pairs of jack stands together. Never tie a tarp to the stands as the tarp’s rope can pull the stands out.
6. Keels must be supported by wide, thick timbers. Never use cinder blocks as they are prone to failure. Engines and outboards may require additional support.
7. Boat covers must be supported underneath to prevent water from pooling, which can add considerable weight and put additional pressure on keel supports.
8. Boats should be stored in the level position to allow scuppers and bilge drains to be effective. Drains should also be left open and kept clear of debris.
9. Fixed-keel sailboats, such as club racers stored on trailers, are prone to being knocked over when wind is on the beam. Use jack stands to provide additional support.
10. Check your boat on a regular basis as damage can be prevented by an occasional visit.
