Cool toy. I got a few. I give them to scout troops. They work great.
Most of them work crappy. The magnesium is much too hard to get small chips off which is a requirement for usage. Same your time; don't buy.
The description is a bit confusing. At meritline, it says
"Material : flint (magnesium), scraper (iron).
Length of magnesium flint:5 cm.
Diameter of magnesium flint:0.8cm.
Length of magnesium flint:5 cm."
Magnesium isn't flint. This looks like it is just a flint & steel.
Magnesium and flint starters look like a large silver block with a cylindrical flint embedded in the side. Personally, I just use a flint & steel. I suppose the magnesium might be handy when starting fires with wet tinder. It takes quite a lot of effort to scrape enough off with a knife to be useful.
This fire starter is not made of only magnesium.
Here is the breakdown:
Percentage: Iron 19%, Cerium 38%, Lanthanum 22%, Neodymium 4%, Praseodymium 4%, Magnesium 4%

Electrolux Limited BEAM Brand Sales Policy
Consider the Value & Cost of the Brand
When you buy BEAM branded equipment from someone other than your authorized local dealer you get only the equipment, not the brand or the service they are known for. And when you compare the BEAM brand equipment to other products that do include a warranty, the brand name on your vacuum might mean much less. For example; Electrolux Quiet Clean model central vacuums include a 10 year power unit and 3 year tool kit limited warranty, exactly the same as the BEAM brand. Electrolux also makes Honeywell, Eureka, Aggresor and other brands in the same factory. All of the Electrolux vacuums are great. They offer many features which can be found in multiple brands of Electrolux vacuum. You need not go without a factory warranty to get the quality and performance you need at the price you want.

After a year of tinkering with different concepts, Dane Reynolds launches the Neck Beard, his favorite free-surf board. No longer working to hide volume from the judges like with the Dumpster Diver, Dane is letting it all hang out with a wider nose and chop tail. With light single concave and vee out the back, this board is faster down the line, has increased rail-to-rail transition, and is more stable when landing airs. Super user-friendly, this is the board Dane grabs when its 1-foot to head-high. Dane rides the Neck Beard as a tri-fin and as a quad for speed. Comes with a five fin setup to get the best of both worlds. If you are a fan of the Dumpster Diver, then definitely grow out your Neck Beard. Order yours 4 to 6 inches shorter than your height.
Inside you will find a helpful sizing guide. Use it to find out your true size in different articles of clothing. It will help you determine what size boardshorts or bikini to buy this summer!

Gas Pains
Tom grew up in Milwaukee, bartended in Wauwatosa in the '70s and moved here in 1984.
Commentary, observations and musings about the outdoors, life in general and maybe Tosa politics and personalities will be the order of the day. He savors a lively debate as much as terrific cooking.
The Science Experiment
Here's an update.
The science experiment (my attempt to capture images of who is feasting on a deer carcass) has been on a forced hiatus.
Deer Camp - Closing Post
Our post-Christmas vacation is drawing to a close.
We hosted a niece and nephew for the past week at the farm. In keeping with the policy of No Child Left Indoors the days have been filled with snowshoeing, cross-country skiing, hauling firewood, playing with Girlfriend and other assorted outdoor activities. The evenings have been spent sampling all manner of terrific food and relaxing in front of the fire. Mornings are for sleeping-in.
Gas Pains Makes the Top Ten
I received an email from Mark Maley today.
Mark is the fellow that works over at the Palace of Pure Thought and is the Online Editor of all of the NOW sites - Including WauwatosaNOW.
An Important Public Service Announcement
Pack up the babies and grab the old ladies and everyone goes, 'cause everyone knows... -Neil Diamond, 1969
Bonspiel: A match or tournament between curling clubs.
I am a bit pooped. I curled Wednesday night, Thursday night, all day Friday and again today. Chasing and sweeping a stone one direction and walking back the other. As near as I can figure that is just shy of eight miles. All the while on ice. Add to the tally delivering roughly five dozen rocks. That would amount to more than a ton of Scottish granite. That's a decent workout - efficiently negated by all of the food and Lakefront Brewery product.
Doing the People's Business
Tuesday evening I went over to City hall to catch the special Common Council meeting and discussion of Tosa's aldermanic selection process. It's been in the news in case you haven't noticed.
Anyway, I'll leave the detailed coverage of this meeting to my diligent acquaintances over at the mainstream media. You can count upon them to get the motions, amendments and other facts straight. I'm going to restrict my commentary to that of making a handful of personal observations.
Watcha sell'n out the back of that truck?
Unlike some of you I don't mind all of the snow and cold. I like being outside in winter. I remember going winter camping for the first time with my wife. We were sitting around the campfire at night and a duck flew-in and landed next to us. I'm not making this up. There we sat; Jill, me and the mallard. But that's an altogether different story.
Nowadays I rather enjoy the change of venue of coming back indoors for the opportunity to get caught-up on my reading. And there is nothing like a like a breath of summer when a cold wind howls. Homemade salsa with chips while basking in the warming multi-megawatt glow of a Sunday game on The Giant Conundrum. You'd almost think it was early season football.
From the Mailbag
I got an email tonight from one of my small legion of loyal readers that included some inaugural photographs.
See this guy with the bullhorn under his arm. I suspect he has issues about uppity women.
Doing the People's Business
Since I live near Hart Park I'm excited to know that the city is finally going to get serious about making the park improvements come together. Heck, I'm actually grateful. This is an investment in our community that all Tosans are going to benefit from and can be proud-of. Generations to follow will thank us for polishing this gem.
And, yes, I think the Mayor deserves her fair share of credit for shepherding this process along. Good job.
Tosa Trivia
Technically only one of these guys actually lives in Wauwatosa so that would make it more of a riddle.
Can you identify these three handsome fellas?

Online degrees in legal studies provide a thorough overview of the American legal system, including legal theory and practice, civil and criminal law, civil and criminal procedure, and constitutional law. Students learn key skills in legal writing, research, and analysis that can be applied to a broad range of careers, and even professional study in law.
Curriculum in a legal studies degree program will explore special topics in law, such as real estate law and business law, that can be applied to a wide range of careers, since not every student who pursues a legal studies degree wants to become a lawyer. Another special topic in a legal studies degree might be employment law, and knowledge in this area is particularly useful in careers in human resources, where a top concern is avoiding legal trouble with employees.
Online programs in legal studies may share certain course work with online programs in paralegal studies, but paralegal studies is a vocational program designed specifically to prepare students for careers as paralegals or legal assistants. Legal studies tends to be a more general program applicable to a wider variety of careers where legal knowledge would be beneficial.
Graduates of legal studies degree programs may pursue graduate degrees in library science in preparation for a career in law libraries, or may pursue a professional law degree. However, students should be careful to maintain a high GPA if they plan to attend law school or be accepted into graduate programs. Other possible careers might be found in contract negotiation, human resources, labor relations, real estate, legal consulting, litigation analysis, and lobbying, according to the University of Illinois Springfield.

The day after moving into a new apartment, a man discovers that he is living above what is likely to be a 19th century dungeon.

VIDEO: Leopard attacks crowd in India
A leopard caused panic in the city of Chandrapur when it sprung from the roof of a house and charged at rescue workers.
The top 12 government programs ever
Which federal programs and policies succeed in being cost-effective and targeting those who need them most? These two tests are obvious: After all, why would we spend taxpayers' money on a program that isn't worth what it costs or helps those who do not need help?
'Warlock' in West Virginia accused of sexual assault
Police in West Virginia say a man claiming to be a "warlock" used promises of magical spells to lure children into committing sexual acts with him.
Cats outsmart the researchers
I knew a lot had been written about dogs, and I assumed there must be at least a handful of studies on cats. But after weeks of scouring the scientific world for someone - anyone - who studied how cats think, all I was left with was this statement, laughed over the phone to me by one of the world's top animal cognition experts, a Hungarian scientist named Ádám Miklósi.
House Republicans are more active on Twitter than Democrats
Your representative in the House is almost certainly on Twitter. Your senator definitely is. But how are they using the social network? Are Democrats more active than Republicans, or vice versa? Who has the most followers on the Hill?
Do your genes make you procrastinate?
Procrastinators, in my experience, like nothing better than explaining away their procrastination: General busyness, fear of failure, and simple laziness are just a handful of the excuses and theories often tossed around. Now researchers from the University of Colorado Boulder have added another option to the list: genetics.
Do White Castle prices tell us anything about the minimum wage?
The paper looked at how many delicious steamed sliders the minimum wage has been able to purchase over time. The point is that as it notes, in 1981, the $3.35 minimum could buy a whole dozen. Today, at $7.25, it could purchase just 10.
VIDEO: Moose charges snowmobile, flees after warning shot
While snowmobiling in New England, Bob and Janis Powell of Maine were charged by a moose and caught the entire attack on camera.
Can Hillary Clinton rock the cradle and the world?
What's most interesting to contemplate is the effect becoming a grandmother will have on Hillary's ambition. It's one of life's unfairnesses that a woman's peak career years often coincide with her peak childbearing years.
Smartphone kill switches are coming
Smartphones need kill switches. It's a relatively easy solution to the pricey (and irritating) problem of smartphone theft. But who would have thought that the big carriers would team up with Apple, Google, Microsoft, Nokia, Samsung and lots of other manufacturers to voluntarily begin adding the technology by July 2015? The cooperative spirit! It makes so much sense!
Why do wolves howl?
Of all the myths that dog the wolf, none is more widely accepted than the idea that wolves howl at the moon. Images of wolves with their heads upturned, singing at the night sky, are as unquestioned as a goldfish's three-second memory or a dog's color-blindness (both also myths).
Biggest student loan profits come from grad students
This week, the Congressional Budget Office projected that the federal government would earn roughly $127 billion from student lending during the next 10 years.

This is the only dirt-detecting Roomba that can be scheduled or launched from another room. Exclusively from Hammacher Schlemmer, the Roomba 790 has a radio frequency remote control that transmits through ceilings and walls to set the robotic vacuum's cleaning schedule from up to 25' away. Integrated optical sensors detect dirty areas and acoustic sensors determine when the vacuum is working harder, prompting Roomba 790 to concentrate on these areas. Made by iRobot, developers of tactical reconnaissance robots for the U.S. military, Roomba 790 analyzes the dimensions of a room, determines the optimal cleaning path, and autonomously cleans the floor in a back-and-forth pattern. It uses sensors to navigate around furniture and stairs and cleans under beds and along walls. The cleaning head automatically adjusts to accommodate carpets or hard floors and dual HEPA filters capture dirt particles as fine as 0.3 microns. It can be scheduled to automatically clean up to seven times per week or prompted to spot clean. Roomba 790 automatically returns to its charging base when its battery runs low and the three included Virtual Wall lighthouses project infrared beams that confine the vacuum to one room and direct it to another room when it is finished cleaning. Comes with the most accessories of any Roomba available, including six extra HEPA filters,five extra brushes and hard plastic case. Only available for delivery in the U.S. and Canada. 14" Diam x 3 3/4" H. (8 lbs.)
"I like that it allows me to do something else entirely while it is vacuuming the entire house. Imagine returning home to a freshly vacuumed house and you didn't have to do it! "- NTV, Arkansas
The Dirt Detecting Radio Frequency Robotic Vacuum comes with The Hammacher Schlemmer Lifetime Guarantee at no additional charge.

Women, Gender, & Sexuality Studies is the multidisciplinary study of women's lives and experiences.
Women, Gender, and Sexuality Studies place women's concerns, gender analysis, and/or LGBTQ experience at the center of academic study. We recognize that gender and sexuality intersect with other categories of identity and experience, including race, ethnicity, social class, ability, and age. Our courses examine a wide range of topics from multidisciplinary perspectives.

Superior Quality. These Ford Racing 3.73 Mustang ring and pinion gears feature a super strong forged construction, CNC cut & lapped gear teeth, and a black oxide finish to resist corrosion.
Recommended Upgrade. Changing the rear axle gear ratio will throw off the calibration of your Mustangs speedometer, but a Ford Racing Speedometer Recalibration Tool is an inexpensive way to fix this issue.
Application. This Ford Racing Ring and Pinion Gear set will fit all 2005 to 2010 V8 Mustangs including the GT, Bullitt and GT500 models. A master bearing kit is recommended by most installers, especially on high mileage vehicles, see drop down option above.
Attention 2010 and newer Mustang Owners. Starting in 2010 Ford changed the inner rear gear pinion bearing in all 8.8" equipped Mustangs. Because of this you will require a new 8.8" rear gear pinion bearing (Ford part# 9L3Z-4630-A) for proper installation, please see drop down option above.
Technical Note. Installation costs will vary, but a good rule of thumb is between $250 and $300. Be sure to work with a reliable shop that you trust for installations. You can also save money on your installation labor by having your Trac-Lok rebuilt at the same time as your gears are installed, see drop down option above.

Hertz Furniture's high-class dry erase boards will fit well in a conference room or executive office. We have many portable models as well as wall-mounted units with wood or wood-veneer doors. A great white board is sure to come in handy when illustrating a point, brainstorming or recording key terms.
Having a presentation space right in an executive office or conference room will demonstrate competence and preparedness. While a portable model can serve the same function, it will usually provide a smaller writing surface and will not be as aesthetically pleasing. Wall-mounted whiteboards are convenient because they save time and eliminate the extra worry of remembering to set up yet another item before a meeting starts.
When a dry-erase board is not in use, it can disrupt the flow and style of an elegant space. Wood veneer or laminate-finish doors offer the convenience of having what you need there at all times, while maintaining a classy space. When the whiteboard is not in use, it can be protected and covered in a way that complements other office furniture.
Some of our models are part of larger office furniture collections. With this arrangement, you can coordinate perfectly with an office desk, conference table and other pieces. Alternatively, the door hue can be matched to the wood stain of other furniture, even if it is not part of the same collection, or used to bring a new complementary shade into the workspace.
With the doored option, a professional who is running a meeting also has the added benefit of being able to write items on the board that are needed for the beginning of a meeting or session, which are revealed when it begins. Clients and colleagues are sure to be impressed when a carefully-mapped plan or diagram is revealed right at the start. This saves time during the session and demonstrates preparedness and organization.
Some models come with extra features that can be quite helpful to have. If you want a space to hang printouts that were passed around or personal notes, there is an option for a configuration that includes cork board panels inside. With important information tacked up right next to the board, the project manager won't have to keep running back and forth to look at notes or retrieve papers.
Hunting around for a writing implement or eraser during a meeting gives off a disorganized impression. No matter what style of white board you have, whether it is used in a professional or educational setting, a marker tray is always convenient. One of the benefits of having a white writing surface is that many different colors can be seen easily. Anyone who wants to keep a number of markers around with an accessible eraser as well will benefit from having a tray at right at the bottom of the writing surface.
Many modern companies and institutions like to use slideshows when they are proposing a project or explaining a new venture. With projection whiteboards from Aarco, slides can be projected onto a surface that is easy to view. Unlike a regular white wall, which can simply display a slide, a white board can be written on. This arrangement is great because it enables executives to draw attention to certain parts of slides during presentations.
While the wall-mounted option is an excellent one, a portable whiteboard is a great alternative for a room where there is not enough wall space or a large writing surface is not often needed. The portable solution enables you to provide a space for recording information in any part of the work space including personal offices or temporary seminar rooms. They are easy to carry in and out as needed and provide the perfect space for brainstorming, recording key terms or displaying the meeting agenda.
For a larger portable presentation surface, try BestRite whiteboards. They roll into position on casters, so they can easily be moved around without being lifted. These two-sided models provide twice as much writing space. When one side has been filled with great new ideas and innovations, the board can simply be turned around to reveal a new clean surface. If you want to review something or return to an aforementioned point, just turn the board around again, and all of your previous notes will still be there.
Hertz Furniture's presentation boards are designed to provide an accessible and smooth writing surface that looks great in a professional environment. Our covered whiteboards come from reliable office furniture manufacturers including OSC, Mayline and Offices to Go. If you need help deciding which dry erase board is right for your space, contact the Hertz Design Center for free project-planning advice.

When you buy from Hertz Furniture, you don't need to compromise on ideals or preferences. You get great warranties, quality and designs all with the additional benefits American made products. With everything from office desks to school chairs conveniently organized on this one Made in USA page, you can definitely afford to buy American.
There are lots of reasons to look for school furniture that is made in the USA. If we want to teach our students to be patriotic, we need to demonstrate our own patriotism in the classroom. By furnishing a learning space with American made school desks, student chairs and bookcases, we send a message to children that we are proud of our country and our home-grown goods. They will understand that there are many reasons to be proud to be an American.
When you go shopping for furniture made in the USA, make sure to really check the label before purchasing anything. While some companies might claim that they are only using American labor, it is possible that certain steps in the assembly process are happening overseas, or that international parts are being used with the assembly process in America. It is important to demonstrate to manufacturers, the American public and the world that it does make a difference to consumers when they have furniture made in America.
There are tons of benefits to purchasing made in USA furniture. First of all, America has very strict standards regarding pollution in product production. When you buy American, you help keep a cleaner environment for the future of our children. When you purchase products without looking for the made in USA label, you don't know what they might contain or what kinds of conditions they were made under. Products from overseas might have been made under substandard working conditions, in factories which are causing tons of air pollution or using child labor.
American labor standards and worker conditions ensure that your office furniture is only produced under acceptable conditions. Made in the USA products have been manufactured through processes which take into account the safety of the workers, the quality of the products and the impact on the environment. When you buy American, you celebrate our country's independence and promote a self-sufficient economy.
When you buy domestically-produced furniture, you can feel good about your purchase. It's great to know that it was made under particular conditions, in compliance with strict standards. You also know who made it. The production of American made furniture creates jobs for our country's citizens. It is always important to support the American labor force, and buying furniture made in the USA is a mutually-beneficial way to do so.
At Hertz Furniture, we know what is important to the American consumer. With our wide array of American made furniture, you can be patriotic and still rely on the quality, style and reliability you have come to expect from Hertz Furniture. So next time you are looking for furniture made in the USA, you can simply come to this page to buy American. Need help choosing which great models will fit best in your space? The experts in the Hertz Design Center will be happy to help with free project-planning advice.

Obama: 2008 - 1984
This was a bumper sticker idea I heard on Vicki McKenna's radio show Monday. She was taking listener's suggestions for a whole host of bumper sticker ideas. I was in the car at the time, but I did manage to write down this one. I think it sums up the direction many Americans feel our country is headed toward: Government control of every aspect of our lives.
She will have the many suggestions up on her web page and you can vote for your favorite. McKenna hopes to have some made into bumper stickers in time for the Wisconsin Tea Party on April 15th.

The Un-Fairness Doctrine not really dead
From the Desk of:
David Martin, Executive Vice President
MARCH 6, 2009 Eileen,
Late last week, the Senate passed the Broadcaster Freedom Amendment by a vote of 87-11. And while the liberal media rushed to declare the Fairness Doctrine dead, they all but ignored the "Durbin Amendment" that essentially primes the pump for silencing conservative speech through backdoor FCC regulations!
Eileen, the liberal media would have you believe that the Fairness Doctrine is dead—that the gag order against conservative talk has been once and for all lifted.
Nothing could be further from the truth!
Click here to listen to MRC founder Brent Bozell's message to you on this latest attempt to hijack our Free Speech Rights.
++ A Stealth Attack on Your Free Speech Rights!
Eileen, the Durbin amendment requires the FCC to "take actions to encourage and promote diversity in communication media ownership." Upon closer look, this "stealth" attack on Free Speech Rights is far more insidious because it empowers the government to
censor and control the airwaves through backdoor policies that create a vast array of new avenues by which the FCC can silence talk radio.
In other words, the Durbin amendment poses a much greater danger to our free speech rights because it expands the governmental control and censorship threat in ways we never before imagined!
++ Your Efforts More Important Than Ever
Given what just took place on Capitol Hill last week, there is little doubt that we are headed for a showdown over our Free Speech Rights Over the next 36 hours, we're urging EVERY member of our MRC Action Team to alert friends and family about this stealth assault. Urge them to join with you in defending this God-given right by signing the petition here Time is short. Through this Durbin Amendment, liberal members of Congress now have a way to muzzle the conservative voice on the airwaves – we believe they will waste little time moving it forward.
Eileen, we cannot allow this backdoor assault to go unchallenged!
That's why we're counting on you to help us rally an additional 10,000 citizen signers of our Free Speech Alliance petition this weekend alone!
As always, thank you for standing with the MRC.
David Martin
P.S: Forward this message to 30-35 friends today. Urge them to join with you by clicking here.

Obama reverses Bush, funds failed embryonic stem cell research & more
President of 'Hope' Gives Patients Anything ButFor eight years, President George Bush proudly displayed in the Oval Office a bust of Sir Winston Churchill on loan from Great Britain. As a gesture of goodwill, the British government offered to let President Obama keep the statue during his term as a symbol of our longstanding friendship. Obama declined, shipping the bust back to England--and with it, the reminder of Churchill's great wisdom. It was he who warned that if evil prevails "all that we have known and cared for will sink into a new Dark Age, made more sinister...by the lights of perverted science."
Today, that "perverted science" took root in America in a powerful new way, as President Obama tore down the wall between the federal government and embryonic stem cell experiments. By executive order, he took the first step in overturning the restrictions on taxpayer-funded embryonic stem cell research. His decision will allow government agencies to use federal money to encourage experiments on innocent human life, abolishing a ban that Bush put in place in 2001.
Supporters of the decision are quick to point out that Americans won't be financing the death of embryos. Although we may not be funding the killing, we are funding the killers. For now, the one law that prevents Obama from using taxpayer dollars to fund the destruction of embryos directly is still in place. The Dickey-Wicker amendment, approved by Congress every year since 1996, bans the use of federal funds to create human embryos. Unfortunately, even that safeguard could be in jeopardy under the liberal majority. As with the other pro-life riders, Dickey-Wicker must survive the appropriations process--a feat that could now be monumentally more difficult.
Obama's decision puts the government in a business which is not only unethical but also medically unnecessary. As recently as last week, researchers announced that they had successfully turned ethically created cells into the neurons that break down in Parkinson's disease. The week before, scientists produced evidence that they had treated Parkinson's in a patient with his own adult stem cells. Almost daily, researchers are celebrating new breakthroughs without compromising a single human life. Over 70 diseases and conditions have already been treated through adult stem cells, helping patients overcome everything from juvenile diabetes to heart disease. There is a common misconception that ESC research hasn't yielded these same results because it's not legal. It is. Only federal funding has been restricted. Private, commercial, and even state ESC experiments continue to no avail. That's why the ESC community is so desperate for federal funding. Many of the private ESC financiers see the method as an expensive failure. Even Dr. James Thomson, who first grew human ESC in 1998, has pulled his resources from embryos and invested in induced pluripotent (or iPS) cells, because, apart from the satisfying the moral dilemma, these cells are easier and cheaper to reproduce.
While the Obama administration and its supporters claim to be on the cutting-edge of science, the new President is pursing old technology. And thanks to the latest stimulus package, he will have at least $8 billion to do so. In a clever political move, Obama put the money in place at the National Institutes of Health (NIH) during the second "bailout," then moved ahead with rescinding Bush's restrictions. As he stated today, it will be up to NIH to decide in the next 120 days on the guidelines for ESC research.
Of course, scientists will lobby to obtain the money without strings or congressional oversight. According to the White House, their wish may be granted in the form of a presidential memo which Obama released today that seeks to insulate scientists from political accountability. In instances like this one, a lack of transparency is unacceptable, particularly when taxpayers are footing the bill. Harold Varmus, who co-chairs the President's Council on Science and Technology, defended the idea. "This is consistent with the President's determination to use sound scientific practice... instead of dogma in developing federal policy." Is it dogma or discipline? I guess that depends on your worldview. Are they restrictions or protections? Research or experiments? In this brave new world of commodifying human life, we should all be grateful for moral restraints. Please contact your leaders and urge them to uphold the ones that still exist. Urge them to right Obama's wrong by voting for the Patients' First Act. Instead of asking taxpayers to fund the destruction of life, this bipartisan bill would promote stem cell research that is making progress on principle.
FRC: Adult Stem Cell Success Stories
Slipping fast toward a godless nation
Give Me That Ole Time ReligionThe Washington Post reported yesterday on a new survey of Americans' religious affiliation. Among the highlights: "The percentage of Americans who call themselves Christians has dropped dramatically over the past two decades," and "The only group that grew in every U.S. state since the 2001 survey was people saying they had 'no' religion." It sounded like bad news for faith--until we looked more closely at the numbers. This survey has now been done three times--in 1990, 2001, and 2008, but the decline in people identifying as Christian and the increase in those with "no religion" took place between 1990 and 2001. From 2001 to 2008, the percentage of Christians dropped only from 76.7% to 76.0%, and the number with no religion increased only from 14.2% to 15.0%.
Thanks to the media sensationalism, a key fact of the survey was buried. Among Christians, 44% identify themselves as "born again or evangelical," including substantial numbers of "mainline" Protestants and Roman Catholics. The report says, "These trends also suggest a movement towards more conservative beliefs and particularly to a more 'evangelical' outlook among Christians," and it calls this an "important historical trend." Meanwhile, the biggest decline among Christians is found in the more liberal "mainline" denominations, which plunged from 17.2% to only 12.9% just since 2001. The biggest drop came in two of the most liberal denominations, the Episcopalian and United Church of Christ, and it's not unreasonable to suspect that their growing embrace of homosexuality and same-sex marriage is a big part of the reason.

I was shocked over the weekend to hear President Obama say he was going to reach out to the moderate Taliban. I can't say I think much Obama's diplomatic talents so far: Snub our best ally; reach out to moderate terrorists. Moderate? What makes a Taliban a moderate? Does he just use dynamite instead of C4?

Hersheys sponsors gritty teen TV show
I will admit it; I don't watch network TV anymore. It has become too edgy or sleazy for my tastes. Plus, with a young adult in the house, I don't think we need to bring images into our home of lifestyle choices that we do not approve of but watch as being the norm. What we watch does influence what we think and how we act.
That said, OneMillionMoms.com, a group of conservative mothers, sent this email alert: "Hershey's promotes more than just kisses" regarding their sponsorship of "The Secret Life of the American Teenager." (It is no "Wonder Years," one star of the show described it as "7th Heaven with sex"!)

Secretary of Education Arne Duncan
Thanks for the heads up, Kathryn. I missed that one.

Hi Kyle,
I saw a few minutes of Secretary of Education Arne Duncan on Charlie Rose this week. I don't know much about him, was pleased in general when he was appointed, being that he was seen as outside the educational establishment and in favor of the charter school movement. I think having lots of choices in education is good for families.
However, this man has some alarming ideas. Duncan wants to restructure community life around the schools; perhaps a great idea when communities are broken and disfunctional, but hardly a good choice for healthy families and communities. He spoke of keeping schools open 12-13 hours a day (actually our high schools are open at least that long most days), holding school year round, 6 or 7 days a week, and having potlucks! The President's agenda for education seems more conservative than Mr. Duncan's, but Mr. Duncan bears watching.

"Teach the Controversy Creation & Evolution" Tuesday, March 24, 7:30pm
The Creation Science Society of Milwaukee is featuring a presentation by Dr. Gary Locklair, Ph.D. of Concordia University, Wisconsin on Tuesday night from 7:30 - 9:00pm, entitled "Teach the Controversy, Creation and Evolution".
According to the flier from CSSM,
Darwin's theory of revolution 200 years later
No, that isn't a typo. It is what Charles Darwin's theory of Evolution resulted in: a revolution of society. Relativism. Man is little more than animal. Life is cheap. There is no God. etc.
If we are not created in God's image, but were a result of random accidental occurances over billions of years, then we are the masters of our own fate. We are answerable to no one.
Wow! Now that is a good, cheap pizza
I cannot remember when we started the tradition of having frozen pizza on a Saturday night at our house. It may date back to when my husband and I were first married in the late 1970s. It is a tradition that has stuck over the years though. The brand may have changed, but menu has stayed the same. (I joke it is against my religion to cook on the weekend.)
At first we were loyal Tombstone fans. Then Brewer's came out; that was better. Brewer's went out of business, but Jacks seemed almost identical. Enter thick crust on the scene. But something happened when Jacks was bought by Kraft foods several years ago. Their pizza just didn't measure up and it got more expensive too. We switched to Orv's, which is so-so OK and tried a few others but no favorites. (Alas, the fabulous gourmet pizza I used to get at Aldi is no more.)

Know someone getting a bailout bonus? I do. (They aren't rich)
http://www.politico.com/news/stories/0309/20528.html (Ryan) GOP lawmaker flips on AIG bonus tax ...House Republicans split almost evenly last week over the Democrats'
bill to impose a 90 percent retroactive tax increase on bonuses for
employees at AIG and the other biggest recipients of federal bailout
funds in a political bid to recoup the government's money.
Conservatives rejected the bill as a punitive tax, but more than 80
Republicans voted for it, fearing the populist backlash over the AIG
bonuses. ME: those recipients included Wells Fargo, which as Sensenbrenner put it, were not allowed to leave the room until signing onto receiving tarp funds. They were cooerced into signing so as to not label the ones who did take funds with a scarlet letter. Now those employees, even those who make less than $50,000 a year might get their bonus taxed at 90%. How would you like that to be you?
It is easy to fall into the trap of thinking "those rich fat cats don't deserve a bonus" when it comes to bailout money. But remember, many of the workers for these financial institutions are just middle class workers, just like you. Some, through no fault of their own now find themselves in the position of being taxed at 90% on their bonus money because our government leaders (President Obama, Secretary of Treasury Geithner cannot make up their minds and wish to fuel the class warfare fires.Call your Senators and tell them to vote no.

"I think the dollar is now under question and I think the system will need to be reformed, so that the United States will be subject to the same discipline as is imposed on other countries," said Soros, whose famous bet against the British pound earned his Quantum Fund $1 billion in 1992. "Being the main issuer of international currency, we have been exempt and we have abused that because we have effectively consumed 6.5 percent more than we have produced. That is now coming to an end."

Limiting charitable deductions will hurt all--not just rich
President Obama has little understanding of the charitable giving mindset. No wonder, he gives very little. But to say it isn't fair that the rich get to receive a 39% return on their deduction when others only can receive a 28% return shows his ignorance of the whole tax issue. It is OK to tax the rich at 39% buy not allow them the deduction return of 39%?

Bachmann promises to "continue to work overtime for the next 18 months in Congress defending ... Constitutional Conservative values."
