If she switched parties, she’d never win another state election in HI. If she’s with Trump on this issue, she’s an asset even if she has a D after her name.

What was her vote on the national Islam day for Hawaii? Sept 24th? What is her opinion of it now? My husband and I decided we would take Hawaii off our bucket list, because something evil reigns there. So we are working on an alternate spot with volcanoes and heat.. Midway is off the list because it’s restricted and unrealistic even if you could get permission. I am still thinking of an Aleutian island, but only in the summer. Don’t laugh, I get cold. After being stationed in ft wainwright I know my limits.

I completely forgot about guns on my list! Well, it was 3am when I wrote it.

Yes, we don’t need her. Now, if in some way, she wants to reform her party - in a good way! - I’m all for it. But we simply don’t need her.

Go to Sicily. Mount Etna is a great spot. Even a scaredy cat like me couldn’t stop from driving to the top. I still remember a traveling partner refusing to believe all the black stuff on our boots was ash. Then, you can return to Catania or, even better, Taormina for a little sun and sand.

National Islam Day? Can we give Hawaii back to the Polynesians??

Positioning:

Screen Sizes

With the proliferation of display devices, screens now come in a wide variety of sizes and aspect ratios. The image below illustrates the range of screens possible. Differing aspect ratios are shown on the diagonal lines with the ratio in circles towards the lower right.

Given the wide variation in screen resolution and size when we step from mobi to fondleslab to display to HDTV it is lunacy to specify screen position in term of pixels. There is no way to know what sized screen you are imaging to so it is best to reference screen sizes and positions in percentages instead. The resulting size is the percentage of the width (or height) of the enclosing container. This is most useful when specifying positions and sizes of tables and images. The HTML for the image above looks like:

<img src="http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/4/44/Vector_Video_Standards5.svg" width="95%">

The width="95%" part sets the image width to 95% of the width of the enclosing container. We leave the height unspecified so that the computer will figure out the correct value so as not to distort the image. If you wish to distort the image you may specify a height as well.

Things that are text related, such as the whitespace around a paragraph or header and text sizes are best specified in em. One em was originally the width of an M in the current font. In a multi-lingual world where not all alphabets have an M in them, the meaning has evolved to mean the height of the current font. As the user changes the magnification on a page the size of an em changes with it. This produces a pleasing scaled effect to the eye not possible when spacing objects in pixels.

Other unit values available are in inch, cm centimeter, mm millimeter, ex x-height of a font (x-height is usually about half the font-size), pt point - 1/72 of an inch, pc pica - 12 points and px pixels - a single dot on the screen. If no units are specified pixels are used by default. Best results across the broad spectrum of displays are achieved by exclusively using em and percent to specify size and distance. Try not to do anything else.

HTML 4.01

Any element (anything between tags) can be explicitly positioned by either putting it in a table or centering it <center></center> or aligning it to the right <p align="right">. Beyond that, explicit positioning is purposefully made as difficult as possible so that you won't do it. Your page will be displayed on a variety of devices of differing sizes and the less you constrain where the elements are positioned the better the general result will be across the broad spectrum of displays.

Inside tables you can use the attribute <td align="right"> ("left|right|center|justify|char") are acceptable values. The "char" option is mishandled by all the major browsers so it doesn't see much use. Align can also be used with images and horizontal rule, <img src="http://mumble.com/image.jpg" align="right"> will work. So will <hr align="right"> This is all in the HTML 4.01 idiom that we are trying to make go away.

To summarize, using HTML you can Center an element or put it in a table to control its position. This is why tables are wildly overused.

Go be a fan of Putin and Assad whose family killed 250 Marines, Syria who attacks Christian nations like that crap-hole Russia that attacked a Christian nation, Russia that burns bibles.

“At a hospital in Ufa, Russia, a broken elevator means some injured patients have to crawl up and down the stairs to their X-ray appointments. A video shared online led to the dismissal of the hospital’s director — but there have been no reports of a repaired elevator. (RFE/RL’s Russian Service)”

Tulsi Gabbards is a clown, her career is over,

Well, there’s a reasoned response to a call for factual investigation of what Bashir al Assad has really done since 2007,

since that is when he became president - before that he was an optometrist in England

10 years ago and Pelosi and kerry were over there at his dinner table. So when and how did the man kill 500,000 Syrian citizens ? And get reelected twice

Btw you are aware it was Iran that ordered the destruction of the marine barracks in Lebanon? Right? Admiral James Lyons briefed the public about that and the fact that Caspar Weinberger refused to authorize a retaliatory strike.

As for Putin I am gd sick of the false dilemma argument that seeking common ground with Russia against ISIS instead of provoking WW3 is being a Putin fan.
Get your head out of that dark moist place

Sicily? I will look into that, but I am not so sure about the Med, at this time, due to the islamophiles in Europe. If we go to the Med, it would be a Bilblical tour.There are a few pacific atolls and islands.. Somone had spoken of the coastal South South America.. I want to say somewhere in Chile..

The reality about guys. Many of us don’t care too much about skin. I have never heard a guy say, she has great skin. We like a good smile, and she has a great smile. In fact, I think a women’s smile is her most important physical asset. She also has great eyes. Many Indian women do. And just like a girl in a catholic school uniform is attractive, so is a women in a military uniform if she has a good shape. This women has a good shape. And she has lots of photos in uniform.

But you are right. When she is in DC, she dresses very conservatively. I bet she is always cold. However, if you google her images, you will find her surfing and dressing better back in her Hawaiian district.

Assad is a bad guy. But you are not going to get a good guy in Syria. The issue is not conquering Syria. Its holding Syria. You need a strongman. And that is not always pretty. The guy that holds Syria will spend his life behind castle walls and twenty body guards at all times.

I think we have found that both George Bush and Obama were very wrong about the middle east. The people will not rise up and embrace democracy. Like Chicago, they will form gangs and kill one another. Might makes right. And that is rarely more true than in the middle-east. If you want peace in Syria, you support a guy who can hold the country.

If Assad has one attribute that we can’t live with, its his exporting of forces outside of Syria like Lebanon and Israel. If we can have an agreement that we will leave him alone in Syria, and he agrees to stay out of Lebanon, Iraq and Israel, I think we have grounds for a truce.

I just don’t see her great beauty, sorry, and that has nothing to do with her party affiliation. She has a rough complexion. Guys may not say “she has great skin” but they notice it. When was the last time the high school football star asked out the acne-ridden book worm?

We lost Saddam and Quaddafi and look where that got us. I supported the Iraq War out of naivete and a fierce desire for revenge after 9/11. A mistake. So Assad needs to stay. I think President Trump gets that.

I read that she is also a Hindu and likes to surf.

Hopefully she will be one of Trump’s sharp swords.

I can give you a hint, it's not the quality of the skin, it's the shape...

Just a guess, of course.
