Nurses who have some field experience but who hope to advance within their careers have the option of pursuing nursing leadership degrees. Nursing leadership degrees are designed for professionals who plan on becoming hospital administrators, supervisors, or managers.
Unlike general nursing degrees, nursing leadership degrees will not involve instruction over patient care. This is because the degrees are designed for students who have already received general nursing instruction. However, nursing leaders must still hone their communication and interpersonal skills, as they will be responsible for supervising the staff that tends to patients.
To prepare students for their future careers as leaders within health care, nursing leadership degrees involve course work over health policy, management of health care services, and human resources. While enrolled, students will also learn how to assume and maintain leadership over organizations, how to manage their employees' time, and the financial responsibilities of hospital administration.
In addition, online nursing leadership degrees will help students learn to handle stressful situations. They will also ensure that students graduate with the knowledge necessary for responding to emergency situations in an efficient and timely manner.Typically, students will be expected to practice these skills in a hands-on environment prior to graduating.

Drumwright honored by Henricus
George T. Drumwright, Jr. may have retired from his position as deputy county manager for Henrico.
But on Sept. 14, Drumwright's friends at Henricus Historical Park let him know emphatically that he will not be allowed to retire from his role as a Henricus Foundation board member and long-time volunteer.
At a reception honoring Drumwright and celebrating the opening of 2012 Publick Days, friends, family, colleagues and fellow members of the Henricus Foundation Board of Trustees gathered to dedicate the Drumwright Education Fund, a component of the Henricus Annual Fund that will enable the Foundation to expand interactive history program offerings for students.
Drumwright's colleagues also presented him with gifts and mementos, and spoke at length about his 25 years of contributions to the park.
Henricus Executive Director Charles Lewis Grant pointed out that when Drumwright first became involved, the park was just a place "covered in vines."
Today, Henricus boasts a dozen re-created colonial structures, including a hospital, parsonage, tobacco barn and planter's house.
"But it's not just about the buildings," emphasized John Siddall, chairman of the Henricus Foundation. "It's about the 25,000 schoolchildren that come through here every year."
And the Drumwright Education Fund, added Grant, will help students from the most disadvantaged schools gain access to park programs.
"If they can't get here," said Grant, "we go to them."
Jurisdictional cooperation
Siddall, who led off his remarks by telling Drumwright, "The first thing I want to say is you are not retiring from here," also praised Drumwright's role in supporting the partnership between Chesterfield and Henrico counties that has helped made the park so successful.
Through a fluke of history, said Siddall, both counties own land in Henricus -- even though today's park lies south of the James River in what is technically Chesterfield.
During the Civil War, Union troops began digging a new channel near the James so they could bypass Confederate fortifications that blocked approaches to Richmond. The new channel, completed after the war, left a part of Henrico across the river — surrounded by water.
"Because of this, we benefit," said Siddall, "and not only because we have this beautiful bluff. We also benefit from a great partnership between Chesterfield and Henrico; we get the support of both counties."
Ken Perry, former chairman of the board, noted that Drumwright had first visited the site in 1977. "I visited this site in 1985," said Perry, "and we both saw the same things: a bunch of trees and a beautiful river view."
He and Drumwright worked together on the board for 15 years, said Perry, during which the jurisdictional cooperation was "marvelous."
'He knew every inch'
Dorothy Jaeckle, vice chairman of the board, recalled that when first elected to the Chesterfield County Board of Supervisors, she was taken aback by the number of boards on which she was expected to serve, and overwhelmed by the steep learning curve required to learn about the various organizations.
Appointed to the Henricus board because the park was in her district, Jaeckle said that joining a board with Drumwright only magnified her feelings of inadequacy.
"George was the one," she said, "who took the sickle and cleared the way in [to the historical area]. He knew every last inch of this place." But her feelings of inadequacy were soon eased, said Jaeckle, because Drumwright was so clearly passionate about the park, and made it clear that he wanted only to share his knowledge of it with others.
Chesterfield County Manager Jay Stegmaier, noting that Henricus was recently named the best park in Central Virginia by readers of Richmond.com, credited Drumwright with being one of the key players that helped the park succeed.
"You've become an icon for Central Virginia," Stegmaier told Drumwright, jokingly inviting him to use a sword to carve his initials in a tree on the site. "[Henricus] is a treasure for Chesterfield and Henrico County, and it's rapidly becoming a treasure for the entire country."
"And," added Stegmaier, echoing the previous speakers, "we're not going to let you totally retire."
A radiant light
In thanking his colleagues for gifts that included colonial-era replicas of a hat and a lantern, Drumwright cited "huge support" from the community as his inspiration, and noted that like the lantern, Henricus had blossomed from a tiny spark of a concept into a radiant light.
Only days before, said Drumwright, students visiting the park from Lucille Brown Middle School had been using a newly re-created platform overlooking the bluff to calculate the trajectory of cannon fire needed to bridge the river – demonstrating just one of the unique hands-on lessons that the park provides to schoolchildren.
Upon being presented with a sword, Drumwright reminisced about his first job in Norfolk, during which he occasionally perched on the rails of a replica ship and played the role of pirate.
"We used to break these swords once a week," he said, "fighting each other."
Everything a miracle
As the celebration moved into the dinner-and-music phase – featuring favorite Drumwright band Steve Bassett and Friends – incoming Henrico County Manager John Vithoulkas read a letter from Tuckahoe Supervisor and fellow Henricus board member Pat O'Bannon, who could not be present at the celebration.
Addressing Drumwright, O'Bannon wrote, "Before Google, George, we had you to ask for answers. Now we can ask Google, but it's not nearly as good."
Thanking Drumwright for serving as a mentor, O'Bannon went on to quote Albert Einstein, who once said, "There are two ways to live: you can live as if nothing is a miracle, and you can live as if everything is a miracle."
"George," wrote O'Bannon,"lives his life as if everything is a miracle."
Echoing O'Bannon's sentiment, Vithoulkas recalled visiting the undeveloped, overgrown future site of Henricus decades ago, when he worked under Stegmaier as a budget analyst.
"It wasn't nearly what we've got here now," said Vithoulkas.
"George, you've done a phenomenal job."

As far as anyone knows, sleeping might be off the table. And that makes it very hard to accuse the Muppets of sleepwalking through their latest feature, Muppets Most Wanted – even if that's exactly what's going on.
Jim Henson's beloved creations were back in a big way after 2011's The Muppets, with fame and fortune and even an Oscar, a first for the group ("Rainbow Connection" was nominated, yet somehow failed to collect at the '79 ceremony). > Read more.

Civil society
Attending sessions
Civil society engages with the climate change process through representative non-governmental observer
Admission: Article 7, paragraph 6, of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate
Change provides for the admission of non-governmental organizations to sessions of the Convention bodies as
observers. New applicant organizations are formally admitted by the Conference of the Parties following
the successful completion of the admission process. Admission to the Conference of the Parties also
applies to the Conference of the Parties serving as the meeting of the Parties to the Kyoto
Protocol. Participation at sessions in between the SB sessions and the COP is limited to those
organizations that have been admitted or provisionally admitted at previous SB sessions and COPs.
Once an organization is admitted, its representatives may attend sessions of the Convention bodies as
observers. Those observer organizations that have been admitted to a COP in the past do not need
to reapply for admission.
Attendance: Admission is not the only way to attend sessions. If your
organization is not admitted and you have missed the deadline for application, or if your organization
is not eligible for admission, the representatives of your organization might be nominated to
attend sessions by already admitted observer organizations who agree to nominate them.
Visibility will be given to the name of the nominated organization on the official list of participants under
the name of the admitted organization. The contact details of the admitted observer organizations are
available here.
Notification: Official notification of sessions will be posted on our website three
months prior to the start date when sessions are known in advance. It is the responsibility of the
admitted observer organization to check for notification updates. You can find current information at
http://unfccc.int. On the left side of the screen click on
Parties & Observers, then click on Notifications.
Nominations: UNFCCC has launched an online registration system for all
sessions. Once the notification for a session has been posted, the designated contact point (DCP) of
the admitted observer organization will have approximately four weeks in which to nominate names
via the online registration system. No nominations will be accepted after the deadline which will be
set in the notification. Information about the online registration system can be found at https://onlinereg.unfccc.int/.

Mix It Up
Mixology, the annual festival curated by the new music and new media organization Roulette, got off to a strong start last week with opening night performances by Pamela Z and Elliott Sharp, presented in collaboration with Harvestworks. Pamela Z demonstrated her use of gesture to control sound, which she produces with her own operatic voice as well as electronically. Elliott Sharp was a one-man noise band, playing both an amplified saxophone and a keyboard-based instrument while manipulating both on his laptop. The night ended with an improvised duet, in which Pamela Z played her iPhone like an ocarina.
Performances continued through the weekend and will resume tonight. Tomorrow's program features Matthew Ostrowski, who will pick up themes of gesture and sampling with a new work titled "Patterns of Changing Light." Mixology runs through May 30, concluding with a performance by downtown stalwart David Rosenbloom, whose piece Sound and Light I continues his thirty-year-long exploration of dense sonic textures with a more recent integration of video as the basis for an evolving score. The full program for the rest of Mixology can be found on Roulette's calendar.
School Day
The spring show of ITP, New York University's Interactive Telecommunications Program, which was open to the public last Sunday and Monday, was a like science fair, with students eager to show the results of their projects, and also like a job fair, with middle-aged men in suits prowling for fresh-faced innovators. There's an atmosphere of authentic creative exploration surrounding the projects displayed, but more often than not the starting point is a vaguely corporate-sounding buzzword: Sustainability! Wearable technologies! Arduino! Connecting to nature was a particularly hot topic, with variations on it ranging from urban botany—like the iPhone app Twigster that helps users identify species of plant life they encounter in parks—to the New-Age crunch of Root Boots, bark-covered footwear that encourages the wearer to stand still and contemplate nature by providing pleasant, low-frequency vibrations when at rest and making scary uprooting sounds when lifted. Voice from the Past also followed the trend of adapting technology to slow the pace of life down; the program lets callers leave a voice message and designate a time in the near or distant future when the recipient will be notified of it. The inverse of that was the whimsical Traveling Sound Museum, with sounds of events like the 1293 sacking of Jaisalmer by the emperor Ala-ud-din Khilji and the 1835 arrival of European explorers in Galapagos in mason jars displayed on an antique wooden cart. (The creator cagily batted away questions about what the burlap in the jars was hiding, and where they "really" came from.) Other projects let computers and audience share the credit for art-making. The "cobots" ShadowBot and SoundBot moved in response to environmental light or noise, respectively, to create messy, Spirogram-like doodles. With the heavy crowds at the ...
Positive Vibes
Any set has begin and end, but the Lucky Dragons played that down in a New York appearance last Saturday; they switched on some recorded sounds as the audience was taking seats, and demonstrated their equipment and chatted after the music's long, slow fadeout. The structure suits the group's hippie philosophy that doesn't assign prominence to any musical moments, but treats all sounds (and people) equally. They also tried to erase borders between performer and audience by encouraging listeners to be mobile, approach the instruments, and improvise, although the narrow length of The Stone, crammed with folding chairs, made it tough for anyone past the two front rows to join in. Lucky Dragons stalwarts Luke Fishbeck and Sarah Andersen were joined by drummer Ches Smith and guitarist Grey Gersten, the curator of The Stone's program this month.
Once everyone was settled in place, Smith and Gersten entered lightly, playing inside the framework of the electronic pulse already hovering in the venue. Gersten struck and dampened his instrument's strings percussively, rather than playing melodies. Over time the drums and guitar settled into a hazy backdrop for electronic, pentatonic glissandos emanating from Fishbeck and Andersen's hacked instruments. Later on they handed audience members a short-circuited wire—wrapped in a colorful knit cozy for safety—that played triadic chords when touched, varying volume according to intensity of squeezes and the amount of grounding (Fader recorded a demonstration of it). The accidental harmonies of that cord, like most of the sonorities in the Lucky Dragons' music, seems to skip across the overtone series, as if the electronic tool is just picking up the natural vibrations hanging in the air. It could be the signature instrument in their wired drum circle ...
Performance Anxiety
Few things are farther from the cool white walls of Chelsea than the anxieties and values of teenage suburbia, which is probably why Ryan Trecartin's videos about them, untranslated into the art world's dominant dialect of aloof criticality, looked so exotic and aroused so much excitement when he made his gallery debut here a year and a half ago. Trecartin's work grows out of YouTube rants, Myspace intros, and other random homemade shorts , and while grotesque histrionics set his videos apart from the average upload, he keeps them close to their sources of inspiration by addressing issues of popularity, independence, and social approval, and shooting them in spacious beige interiors that approximate the bedroom of the regular webcam-wielding kid. Lizzie Fitch, who has collaborated with Trecartin on his videos as an actress and set designer, makes installations based on the same bland domestic environment, using furniture and appliances from big-box stores. Trecartin and Fitch's current video-free exhibition at Elizabeth Dee, the first time they've had a double billing at the New York gallery, lies closer to Fitch's territory than Trecartin's, and the calculated result doesn't indicate a promising direction for either artist to take.
Trecartin and Fitch use the gallery's two rooms to simulate the interior and exterior of a suburban home, but they've switched the order of the front and back so that the viewer becomes an intruder, passing through the backyard before entering the living room. The first installation, The Aboutthing (in the air), suggests a good time that ended in disaster. Rubbermaid boxes bobbing in an above-ground pool-- a lowbrow luxury, not as fancy as an inground pool -- contain the residue ...

Hypertext fiction was proclaimed at its inception as the literary genre of the future, but now it already feels like a relic of the past. Ironically, nineteen years after a software company published the first hypertext story, Michael Joyce's Afternoon, fast internet connections and popular reference sites have made habits of fragmentary, non-linear reading common enough to prepare a wide audience for tackling hypertext fiction (who clicked on the link above before finishing this sentence?), but hardly any artists and writers are making serious attempts at it. Becket Bowes is one exception. His project [sic]ipedia, conceived for and developed during SculptureCenter's "In Practice" program, takes the form of an evocative description of an arcane curio cabinet, with backstories of the items it contains.
Bowes' installation in the back of SculptureCenter's basement was composed of those items—two Ships of Theseus, a Comfortable Chair, a simulation of Alan Turing's death mask and a model of his bust spinning on a computer monitor, to name a few. [sic]ipedia began as a simple site, with a gray sphere and blank prompt in a stripped-down variation on Wikipedia's home page. But over the course of the "In Practice" exhibition's run at SculptureCenter, Bowes gathered his friends—members of the Social Isolate Club, or SIC—inside his installation, to talk out the histories and significance of the objects there. At each meeting, Bowes would take notes in composition books, and then convert the notes into pages on [sic]ipedia. Taken together, [sic]ipedia (the web site) and Social Isolate Club (the installation) suggested parallels between reading hypertext and viewing an installation: both give the viewer a degree of autonomy in ...

NUMBER 110. ATLANTA, GEORGIA. MAY, 1900. (Thirty-first Year.) ATLANTA UNIVERSITY. The higher education of carefully selected Negro young men and women, in both academic and industrial lines, is emphasized by this Institution as necessary for the elementary and industrial training of the masses. "Men of light and leading" in other spheres of activity are also greatly needed by the race that has so long sat in darkness. Earnestly Christian, as required by its charter, yet entirely unsectarian, the Institution is controlled solely by its own board of trustees, on which several denominations are represented. Some 300 students are enrolled under 22 officers and teachers. From the college and normal courses 353 graduates have been sent out, nearly all of whom have readily found permanent employment in teaching or other useful occupations. Situated only about seventy miles from the centre of the Negro population of the country, in one of the largest Southern cities, and at the railroad centre of the South, its location is of strategic importance for promoting the educational advancement of the South. Its plant includes sixty-five acres of land, four large brick buildings, library of 10,500 volumes, apparatus and other equipment worth not less than $250,000. With practically no endowment, with no aid from public or denominational funds, receiving about one-fourth of its support from its own students, the Institution appeals for an endowment of $500,000, and, until that is secured, for $25,000 annually to meet current expenses. Gifts of any amount are welcome, but special appeal is made for subscriptions of $100 and upwards, and for $40 scholarships. Remittances may be addressed to Pres. Horace Bumstead, D. D., Atlanta, Ga. On The Campus A grand-daughter of Prof. Chase was born at Bellows Falls, Vt., April 23. President George Sale of the Atlanta Baptist College preached for us April 29. The baccalaureate sermon will be preached by Rev. Frederick H. Means of Windham, Conn., a member of our board of trustees. Rev. Byron Gunner of Newport, R. L, delivered a very interesting lecture on "How to be Beautiful" the night of April 19, The memorial services, on the morning of Sunday, April 22, and the night of Sunday, May 6, were of unusual interest. A fuller report is given elsewhere. Mr. Martin M. Post is now taking the work of Miss Swift, who left for New England May 2 at the advice of her physician. Our other teachers are now all engaged in their regular work. An entertainment Apr. 27, under the auspices of the Phi Kappa Society, proved especially good. The Askew Brothers from the city furnished instrumental music, and Mr. Martin M. Post, as reader and impersonator, gave a most excellent and much appreciated presentation of the play "David Garrick." A prize speaking contest was held in Ware Chapel, under the auspices of Mrs. Herndon, the night of May 4. The prizes, one gold and two silver medals, were awarded to Misses Fannie M. Settles, Ida M. C. Ford, and Annie E. King. The speaking was of a high order of merit, and well deserved the close attention it received from the large audience. Our Graduates The graduates living in Atlanta will give a reception to graduates living outside this city, and hold public exercises in Ware Memorial Chapel, on Monday night of Commencement week. They are working vigorously for a full attendance, '76—Prof. W. H. Crogman of Clark University was tendered a reception and banquet by his many friends the night of April 13. As a token of appreciation of his splendid service as an educator, a purse was presented to him, also the Browning letters and Jowett's Plato. Professor Crogman began to teach in 1870, even before entering Atlanta University, and has been at Clark University continuously since his graduation. '90—Rev. F. G. Snelson, for three years presiding elder and missionary superintendent of the A. M. E. Church work in Sierra Leone, West Africa, reached his home in Athens April 18. '95—Mattie F. Childs is now teaching at Lincoln Institute, Marion, Ala, '96—The death of Fannie T. Habersham is more fully reported on our second page. '97—Prin. F. A. Curtright of the Ga. Normal and Industrial Institute at Greensboro has been appointed by State School Commissioner Glenn to have charge of the Peabody Institute in his section next summer. '97—Stephen A. Peters graduated from Gammon Theological Seminary April 27 with the degree of B. D. He will be the annual orator of the Phi Kappa society at their public exercises May 25. '98—Rosa M. Porter has taught the past year in Madison.

Curmudgeon's Corner
cur-mud-geon: anyone who hates hypocrisy and pretense and has the temerity to say so; anyone with the habit of pointing out unpleasant facts in an engaging and humorous manner
Fannie Mae & Freddie Mac Exposed?
This video collage is most informative as to the sub-prime problems we are dealing with today.
It seems that there were attempts to rein these two quasi public/private entities in over the years but one party seemed to stand in the way.
Who Is Gwen Ifill & Is She Biased?
The debate between Joe Biden and Sarah Palin on Thursday evening is scheduled to be hosted by Public Television's Gwen Ifill.
It has just been disclosed that Ms. Ifill is a supporter of Barack Obama and has a new book titled "The Breakthrough" scheduled to be released in January, 2009 at about the time our new President will be sworn in to his position. The book promotes Barack Obama and other black politicians who have benefited from the civil rights movement. It contends that the civil rights movement, and the black political structure that resulted, has cleared the way to permit an Obama to ascend to the presidency.
Shocking Experience...
I had a shocking experience last evening courtesy of the Germantown Police Department. I have been, along with several other citizens, participating in the current Citizen's Police Academy offered by the department as a means of informing more people about the department, its duties, its tools and so on.
One of the tools available to our officers is that 'gadget' called a Taser. I'm not certain what the verb form of that word ought to be, but it will be "tazed" with a long "a" for my purposes this morning.
An Oldie But Goodie...
Computers...Male or Female?
An English teacher was explaining to his students the concept of gender association in the English language. He stated how hurricanes at one time were given feminine names and how ships and planes were usually referred to as "she".
Final Vote Cost Tally - Assembly District 24 Primary...
My Blog on September 10th portrayed the amounts of money raised and spent as reported through that date for each candidate. The additional reports have been made to the state and we can now show the final tallies for each candidate.
This is certainly among the most expensive races, and may go down as the most expensive primary race, for the 24th Assembly seat ever; the total amount reported as being spent was $74,250 by the six candidates in the race. A total of 8,178 votes were cast with each vote carrying a price tag of $9.10.
Police Department Budget Issues...
This Blog promises to be too long...and I apologize up front. BUT, this topic is critical, in my estimation, to the safety of our citizens and our property. While we're getting everything on the table, you should know by now that "I am in the tank" for our Police Department; I make no bones about it and I am unapologetic for that!
Carbon Footprint? All The Buzz!
The Wall Street Journal published a special section on the environment today and the primary effort was to help us understand the concept of a carbon footprint.
I need the help! I had no ability to visualize what a pound of carbon dioxide would look like. I am a bit of a skeptic about carbon footprints since we're still here and the natural forms of introducing carbon dioxide into the atmosphere have been going on forever. I am a bit of a skeptic because this wasn't talked about until Al Gore began his 'environmental religion'. I am a bit of a skeptic because what started as a 'global warming' crisis has been altered to a 'climate change' crisis. I am a bit of a skeptic since I've yet to be convinced that science supports the broad contentions made by the proponents of 'climate change'.
Village Buzz (Corrected)- October 6th...
Lilac Lane Closed Again...
I had mentioned that the new bridge was open and looked great last week. Soon after, Trustee Wolter e-mailed to advise that this was only temporary since there was some road re-construction happening very soon
on Maple Road west of the bridge over Hwy 41. on Lilac Lane from the new bridge to Maple Road.
Mortgage-Based Investments...Local Impact
The story of five school districts that invested borrowed money in an attempt to earn larger returns is back in the news as the result of their court case against the two organizations that sold them the deal.
This is an up close and personal portrayal of the rather esoteric things referred to as CDOs...Collateralized Debt Obligations. The CDOs that were purchased contained some of the Fannie Mae/Freddie Mac garbage that blew up a short time ago. So, bad mortgage deals that some politicians wanted made so that their constituency would continue to vote for them have come home to roost in five school districts in Wisconsin.
Village Buzz - October 7th...
Becca Murray Proclamation...
Germantown's own Gold Medal Olympian, Becca Murray was honored by the Village Board last evening with a Proclamation lauding her accomplishments. Unfortunately, she was back on campus at Whitewater to get re-oriented and back in that swing after her globe-trotting, but she will cherish this I'm sure.
Village Buzz - October 9th...
JSOnline today carries an article by Tom Kertscher that begins, at least, to answer some questions that have been swirling in my mind for several weeks. Rumors have been 'on the streets' since early-September to the effect that there had been turmoil within Village Hall. This article points to a memorandum, written by Village Administrator Dave Schornack, that points to allegations by a village employee concerning sexual harassment supposedly involving Village President Tom Kempinski.
Obama's Magic...
Kimberley Strassel of the Wall Street Journal has done a good job with her Obama's Magic opinion piece in today's Journal.
There will be a lot of "magic" required to accomplish all that he has promised us, but we're accustomed to 'rude awakenings' following Presidential campaigns.
In A Lighter Vein...
A friend, who shall mercifully go unnamed, has sent along some of the product of his over-active mind in light of the recent spate of mergers and take-overs. He advised that he wanted me to be able to invest in these new entities so that I could reap a fortune:
The coming together of...
Hale Business Systems, Mary Kay Cosmetics, Fuller Brush and the W.R. Grace Company would result in: Hale, Mary, Fuller, Grace.
Polygram Records, Warner Bros. and Zesta Crackers would yield: Poly, Warner Cracker
3M merging with Goodyear results in: MMMGood
Zippo Manufacturing, Audi Motors, Dofasco and Dakota Mining will bring us: ZipAudiDoDa
FedEx being expected to join with its competitor UPS would bring this: FedUP
Grey Poupon and Docker Pants are expected to become: PouponPants
and, Knotts Berry Farm and the National Organization of Women would produce: Knott NOW!
Big Oaks (or Big Votes) from Little ACORNS Grow?
ACORN, the Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now, has been in the news for several of the past election cycles and finds itself there again. Is this simply a politically-driven campaign or does ACORN merit this attention? How does ACORN influence elections, if it does?
The Journal Sentinel editorialized yesterday on this subject, and essentially took the position that this is much ado over nothing. The editorial staff cites the recent revelation that ACORN hired seven felons to serve as 'deputy registrars' and justifies this with its further discussion about how the registration cards are subjected to review before being handed over to the election officials, etc.
Slippery Slopes...
As the recent chain of events concerning our country's economy has unfolded, I found myself thinking about 'slippery slopes' and just how easy it would be for us to begin a slide that we'd be unable to overcome.
We have just partially nationalized our major banking entities. We have effectively nationalized the AIG insurance giant.
Village Buzz - October 15th...
I had intended to scan a copy of the sample ballot for Germantown however that wasn't sufficiently legible. So, we'll list the offices for which there are candidate selections to be made by all of us who are registered to vote in the village.
You may elect to vote a straight ticket including, in the order found on the ballot:
- Democratic
- Republican
- Wisconsin Green
- Libertarian
Politics 2.0?
There is a very real sense that we have been placed in a new world of politics. I'll call it Politics 2.0 signifying the coming of a new genre.
As I watched the debate last evening involving Barack Obama and John McCain, it was as if I was witnessing a battle between the old and the new politics. And, that is exactly what we've been hearing during this twenty-month plus campaign. Obama has been pointedly making himself the leader of Politics 2.0 so far as the race for the presidency.
Village Buzz - October 16th...
Guest Blog - Pete Hoell, Vice President, Germantown Kiwanis
"I am currently a member of the Germantown Kiwanis group and we are in the process of investigating a community project. As a Kiwanis organization, our primary goal is to support children through grants for activities and projects, scholarships, donations for children's programs and other miscellaneous children's activities.
Functioning With Technology...
I had a conversation earlier today with an associate on the subject of secure e-mails. As we digressed he opined that he believes people born after a certain time have actually evolved to the point that they are more capable of absorbing technology. I'm a bit of a skeptic on that count...but I can't quite put it out of my mind entirely.
I've been blessed with grandkids and marvel at their nearly immediate grasp of new technology. And, they could do this even before they had the ability to read instructions. It is as if they simply continue with a variety of key strokes and suddenly have learned how to navigate as they desire. They have an uncanny ability to instantly recall these links even after they have not used this information for weeks and weeks.
More Friday Stuff...
I have long enjoyed my copy of a book called The Portable Curmudgeon and use its 'modern' definition in my Blog overview. The book was compiled by a fellow by the name of Jon Winokur and is published by the New American Library. Following are some curmudgeonly comments that struck me over the past few days:
On Politics and Politicians:
Apologies To Shakespeare...
Et Tu Brute?
Or should I have said Et Tu Peggy? The Latin sentence above means "Even you, Brutus?" according to my teacher of Latin, Mrs. Chase. She had to bear up under the strain of me in two years of her classes. I'm sure you would send her your condolences just having read this Blog and without knowing how I struggled in her classes.
Too Many Joes...
Barack Obama could be suffering from too many Joes.
We have become very much aware of "Joe the plumber" who posed a question to Obama and received an honest answer. Of course, we've become ever more familiar with that Joe since as the result of the 'excavation' of his history including the tax lien, the fact that he is a not a 'licensed' plumber and the fact that he drove without a valid drivers license in Arizona a decade or more ago.
Powerful Words...Powerful Thoughts
The following words are variously attributed to both Abraham Lincoln and to Rev. Wm. J.H. Boetcker (circa 1916). Without debating from whom they flowed, I thought it very important that these be shared during this particularly important election season.
You cannot help the poor by destroying the rich.
Village Buzz - October 23rd...
Perplexing Situation...
I have been struggling over the issues involved in the case of the alleged sexual harassment that was reported by Tom Kertscher, the resolution passed by the Village Board in unanimous support of Village President Kempinski, the budgeting process and the general cloud that hovers over some village workers.
Sustenance For Conservatives...
Conservatives are accustomed to being involved in 'come from behind' situations and many of those, I submit, are created by the media.
For those of you seeking a decent piece on media double standards, I invite you to read the Human Events opinion piece by Patrick J. Buchanan titled Camp Followers.
Village Buzz - October 25th...
Main Street & The World...
It wasn't all that long ago that I wrote about the St. Francis Bank being acquired by a northern Illinois banking company called Mid-America followed by the take-over of Mid-America by Cleveland-based National City Bank.
Village Buzz - October 26th...
Remodeled & Expanded Senior Center...
I had the opportunity to visit the newly completed Senior Center yesterday and was very impressed with the facility and the people involved. The Open House ran from 1:00PM to 4:00PM and we arrived at about 3:20PM and were met with a very full parking lot and with parking available only on the street. I don't have any idea of the actual number of folks who were present but I'd suspect it was somewhere in the 200+ range.
Village Buzz - October 27th...
Assembly Race Questions...
The Ozaukee County District Attorney, Sandy Williams, filed charges against Dan Knodl in Washington County for making false statements on campaign literature on Friday, October 24th. This stems from his use of various names stating these people were "Friends and Supporters". Some of those that were identified have indicated the they are not supporters of Knodl or didn't give him permission to use their names in that manner. Knodl has offered up different reasons for this having happened although that hasn't satisfied critics. One of those named on the Knodl list was Washington County DA, Todd Martens, who therefore named Sandy Williams to be the special prosecutor in the case.
Clean Sweeps On November 4th?
There is more and more speculation as to the potential that we'll see a 'clean sweep' by Democratic candidates on Tuesday, November 4th at both the state and federal levels. I hope that isn't the way it turns out, but I'm tiring of being beaten about the head and shoulders every time I read a newspaper article or watch the bulk of the television news items. Maybe that is the intent. If us conservatives can be sufficiently demoralized, maybe we'll just stay home. Not this conservative!
What do I mean by 'clean sweep'? I refer to the potential that both the Assembly and the Senate in Wisconsin will see a sufficient Democratic majority that will be able to pass anything they wish in spite of the number of Republican votes that could be massed, with assurances on most such items that those will be signed into law by the Democratic Governor Doyle.
Food For Thought...
I received an e-mail containing the following quotations and thought it simply had to be in front of as many readers as possible as we approach perhaps the most important election in my lifetime. Much food for thought follows:
Suppose you were an idiot. And suppose you were a member of Congress, but then I repeat myself.---Mark Twain
I contend that for a nation to try to tax itself into prosperity is like a man standing in a bucket and trying to lift himself up by the handle.---Winston Churchill
A government which robs Peter to pay Paul can always depend on the support of Paul.---George Bernard Shaw
Democracy must be something more than two wolves and a sheep voting on what to have for dinner.---James Bovard, Civil Libertarian (1994)
Foreign aid must be defined as a transfer of money from poor people in rich countries to rich people in poor countries.---Douglas Casey, classmate of Bill Clinton at Georgetown
Giving money and power to government is like giving whiskey and car keys to teenage boys.---P.J. O'Rourke, Civil Libertarian
Government is the great fiction, through which everybody endeavors to live at the expense of everybody else.---Frederic Bastiat, French Economist (1801-1850)
Government's view of the economy could be summed up in a few short phrases: If it moves, tax it. If it keeps moving, regulate it. And, if it stops moving, subsidize it.---Ronald Reagan (1986)
I don't make jokes. I just watch the government and report the facts!---Will Rogers, Humorist (1879-1935)
If you think health care is expensive now, wait until you see what it costs when it is free.---P.J. O'Rourke
In general, the art of government consists of taking as much money as possible from one party of the citizens to give to the other.---Voltaire (1764)
The inherent vice of capitalism is the unequal sharing of the blessings. The inherent blessing of socialism is the equal sharing of misery.---Winston Churchill (1874-1965)
What this country needs are more unemployed politicians.---Edward Langley, Artist (1928-1995)
A government big enough to give you everything you want, is strong enough to take everything you have.---Thomas Jefferson, Virginia Patriot (1743-1826)
Some things, it seems, never change.
Constitutional Protections...
If you've watched the Fox News Channel chances are good that you've seen Judge Andrew Napolitano, the dapper and perpetually happy senior judicial analyst for Fox News. He has written a piece titled "Most Presidents Ignore The Constitution" that appears on the Opinion page of today's Wall Street Journal.
He writes about the 2001 Public Radio interview of Barack Obama where Obama was lamenting that the civil rights movement had become too 'court centered' and therefore failed to cause 'reparations' for past abuses. That, of course, serves as quite a bombshell so far as future implications if he is elected and presuming he has the same thoughts today that he held then.
Village Buzz - October 29th...
Germantown Firm Featured...
Creative Lighting Design & Engineering has a string of important projects going. The most recent project was done for Milwaukee County in the rehabilitation of the Domes. The newly installed lighting will be unveiled in early-November when the Domes are rededicated. Marty Peck is the force behind the firm that has also done recent work for Potawatomi Bingo Casino and the Wisconsin Club.
Print Newspapers Continue Decline...
The Journal Sentinel released its report for the latest period and the news was a continuation of the trend that has been apparent for many newspapers nationwide.
The Sunday edition dropped 3.8% and the weekday edition dropped 3.9%. My family has become one of those that dropped the weekday edition at our renewal a week or so ago. I now find my daily news using JSOnline during the day and settle in with a lap full of newspaper on Sundays. I have had the tactile sensation of a newspaper in my hands for nearly so long as I can remember, and I confess that I miss that experience. As stated in a much earlier Blog, I delivered the La Crosse Tribune for several years while growing up near that city so I'm accustomed to having smudged fingertips from the newsprint.
Village Buzz - October 31st...
Trick or Treat from 5:30PM to 7:30PM...
Please remember that the little witches, ghosts and goblins will be out and about throughout the village tonight and that they cannot always see well through their masks or costumes.
