as our descent back into the Middle Ages continues
more than a third of parents don't want their kids to have Swine Flu shots! Way to increase the chances of a real epidemic, folks.
http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20091007/ap_ ... cine_fears
There are, of course, dangers and side effects with any vaccination (some people even die of the very disease for which they've been inoculated), but yes, over the whole population of the USA, we'd be much better off if everyone who should get one, does get one.
Unless I had a child with a medical condition that put them at greater risk I would never have them get "routine" seasonal flu vaccinations. Immune systems are depressed by vaccines, and especially for a developing child this could have long term ramifications when defending against diseases like cancer.
Dont take this personally but i hope you take the shit and end up in the hospital...wheres that smiley face when you need it!
Pego, smack him!!
There's plenty of pathogens to go around, and the reason snot-nosed kids are so snotty is because there are so many things we can't or don't prevent. Things like mumps, measles, and even flu do NOT need to be experienced if we can prevent them.
Where you ARE correct is the alarming increase in allergies. I do think that comes from not exposing ourselves to the environment more as a child.
Can I get an anti-asteroid shot? Thats the baby that will do us all in. I get my flu shot next week.
Good news for you.

Nor do I. But I do trust my personal physician, and if he recommends sticking something in me, I'm going to trust him, as I always have. He'll be the one doing the sticking, not "some big agency."
Just googled this up for you.
http://www.mercola.com/article/vaccines ... ession.htm
I don't think anti-vaccine people are neanderthals. They are parasites playing the odds. The mentality is that there is no need for them to be immunized because everyone else will.
Me. I'm old enough to have been in the first generation to get polio shots. It was a common thing in the 1950's to know people in "iron lungs" (youngeer posters won't know what the hell I'm referring to, lucky for them). When reminders of the reasons for vaccinations disappear then it is easy to discount the need for them.
[quote="jhc68"]I don't think anti-vaccine people are neanderthals. They are parasites playing the odds. quote]
Ok, i'd rather be a neanderthal than a parasite. You all know why the neanderthals died out, right? They refused to get vaccines!
Wrong. My mentality is taking vaccines on a regular basis does much more harm than good. Like any body process, the immune system needs to be used or it will grow weaker.
Obviously there is a difference between getting immunized against a life-altering, or life threatening, disease like polio(which I support), and taking a yearly flu shot(s).
Holy shit! And just what mechanism is that you think the vaccine process initiates if it isn't the immune system???
Posted already, but here's a nice synopsis.
http://www.mercola.com/article/vaccines ... ession.htm
Isn't that like saying lifting weights makes us tired, so we shouldn't do it if we want to get stronger? The end result of the immunization is that we are stronger against THAT particular germ, but the rest of our immune system returns to normal after a while. That's how I read it, anyway.
No, that's closer to what you and gh are saying.
My main point is you have an immune system for a reason. Getting sick occasionally helps keep it in tip-top shape. Being vaccinated regularly against things like the flu serve only to weaken the overall protection it gives to your body.
Sorry, but I place osteopaths right up there with phrenologists in the level of medical quackery.
Ask a real doctor.
edited to note that I hyperbolized in my original post; it's homeopaths who are with phrenologists; osteopaths are on a slightly lesser level of hell

I'm not sure I would trust such a source when they write:
That sounds like an agenda driven statement.
Another thing that struck me is quotes from scientists/doctors in the early 20th centrury.
I know little about the immune system but reading that article makes me think that they are exaggerating the size of any immune suppression, especially with respect to weakening ones immune system to a point where it cannot function effectively.
Bingo. People crying out about how 1/1 million people may suffer some moderate adverse reaction forget that the shot they're getting probably protects against one of the diseases that used to infect half the population, while killing a significant percentage of those infected.
Guru, citing Mercola when trying to make a valid medical argument is like citing Britney Spears when trying to make a valid musical argument.
Furthermore, Mercola is as agenda-driven as they come, and full of garbage, to put it nicely.

I found that hilarious and horrifying at the same time. The fact is, people who don't know any better will read that and think it's not an idiotic statement.
I'm certainly not saying I subscribe to that 1909 quote. But it's an undeniable fact that a healthy, fully charged immune system plays a vital role in cancer prevention. Just ask any AIDS patient.
I suspect most of them aren't forgetting. It's just something they never knew.
The major thing that saves us from cancer is apoptosis, the ability of unregulated cells to undergo programmed cell death. That happens regularly in our bodies and spews plenty of DNA/RNA/protein into our system.
True. Speaking of ignorance, someone else (a chiropractor friend of mine) pointed me in the direction of another Mercola article a few weeks ago that had to do with vaccines. Reading the comments/discussion at the bottom was kind of scary. I distinctly remember one lady asking [paraphrased since I don't have the exact souce]:
"My teenage son's best friend just got the meningitis vaccine because he's heading to college. Is it safe for my son to be around him since he can probably catch meningitis from him for the next few days?"
I don't think the leap people are having difficulty making is from immune system to cancer so much as "vaccines ---> decreased immune system."
I understand the appeal of trying to have your body "build" its own defenses from the ground up. But a lot of the time it can't do that right off the bat (as evidenced by countless epidemic and endemic infections that have been wiped out/severely reduced in the industrialized nations).
If you get hit with a bug your body has never seen, you can have a "strong immune system" but still be completely blindsided by said bug. Now, if you've been inoculated against it, you've already armed yourself.
Consider the difference between passive and active immunity. Both have their place, but much/most of what immunizations do is confer active immunity, which is akin to teaching a man how to fish BEFORE he begins to starve to death.

The major medical principle you don't appear to understand here is that if it were just about YOU, then your stance would be fine. But if you catch it (or even if you don't; you can always be a carrier without being symptomatic), you then risk passing it on to other people, and if they're "rugged individualists" like you, then the whole thing snowballs.
I see this as a matter of social responsibility, not individual choice. That's the bottom line.
Particularly with a serious disease, not a take-two-aspirin-and-call-me-in-the-morning one.
Perhaps it's better to think of your immune system like your cardiovscular system. When you exercise, you tax your cardiovscular system, and in the process it becomes stronger and more efficient. Similarly, when you get sick your immune system is kicked into action, repelling the invading organism, also becoming stronger in the process. When humans turn to vaccines to prevent disease, and drugs to fight it's effects, it's much like riding a bike for exercise, but tying a rope to a car in front.
As I said, I'm not dismissing vaccines or drug therapy when it comes to life threatening ailments, or certain high risk groups. But aside from those circumstances, you're better off just risking being sick for a few days when you consider the long term benefits of a vibrant immune system.
I disagree. Your analogy really only works if all we're doing is injecting IgG into people.
I DO consider the long term benefits of a vibrant immune system. That's why I get vaccinated.
Actually, E. Garry, osteopaths are now fairly close to Western doctors. Many of them do standard residencies after they finish osteopathic college. I'm interviewing a guy tomorrow for a job who did an orthopaedic residency after osteopathy school.
We think you should get the vaccine if/when it becomes available. To not do so is playing with fire. Read about the 1918 Spanish flu pandemic sometime, if you don't think so. I certainly will get it, and fortunately, medical professionals are supposed to be first on the list to get it, so we can be around treat the victims of it. Having said that, and DrJay and pego can address this better than I, but the swine flu seems to be spreading a lot but not really killing as many as was postulated. (I know, I know, somebody will send me a link to somebody in Texas or Aqua Caliente who died - but a lot of people die from standard flu and that is never reported.)
That is precisely my take on this. Discussions such as this (and on many other subjects as well) illustrate fairly clearly that our sense of the collective social fabric, of our social responsibility to each other, is tenuous at best--much more tenuous than it was in previous generations. Some might see that as a triumph of individual freedom, but there is a much darker and (ultimately) more destructive side to it.
It's clear we are not going to see eye to eye on this Bison. I respect your stance, but respectfully disagree.
All I know is my personal experience, having never been vaccinated beyond the early childhood regimen. Working around high school kids every day in Ohio winters I get sick maybe once every 3 or 4 years, and never take any medication during the illness. At 42 I plan to stick with what's worked.
Do youz guys think people should have a choice or should there be jail time for non-conformance?
People clearly have all the choice in the world right now. We're simply commenting on the choices they make.
Are you in favor of jail time? Hanging in the public square?
No, im pro choice doncha know!

The Voyageur Restaurant parking lot was filled with sunshine and salmon, April 27th, while Quota International of Port Huron raised money for a good cause, at the Salmon Stakes fishing tournament. With 105 boats registered and, a 50/50 pot over $900, the event was a king-sized success. Tracy Cedar, a St. Clair resident and president of the Port Huron Quota Club, said they plan to use the funds raised from the tournament to purchase a loop system that will assist the hearing and speech impaired to hear speaker announcements at the planned Blue Water Area Convention Center. The largest king salmon of the tournament, weighed in at 18.65 pounds and was taken on the boat Double Down, with captain Jim Frazer, from Port Huron Township. Other highlights of the event included patio-side grilled food, raffle prizes, an inflatable slide and a bounce castle for the kids.

Found October 01, 2013 on Gridiron Grit:
PLAYERS: Josh Freeman
TEAMS: Tampa Bay Buccaneers
TEAMS: Tampa Bay Buccaneers
We've already reached the start of October, but Hurricane Josh appears to be picking up a ton of momentum along the west central coast of Florida. Tampa Bay Buccaneers benched quarterback Josh Freeman was told to stay away from a team meeting on Tuesday, FOX insider Jay Glazer reported on "FOX Football Daily." Photo Credit: Buccaneers.com In addition, Glazer reports that some of Freeman's teammates "started thinking it was to get others to think he blew it off." Glazer subsequently tweeted that the 6-6, 240-pound signal-caller later approached teammates to tell them he wasn't late and had been instructed not to attend the meeting. This is just the latest chapter in a very uncomfortable situation for a team that has opened its season with excruciatingly tough losses in the closing moments to the New York Jets (18-17), New Orleans Saints (16-14) and Arizona Cardinals (13-10), along with lopsided 23-3 defeat to the New England Patriots. Earlier in the day, head coach Greg Schiano den...

Date: 1/12/2012 12:00:00 AM
Dr. Timothy Kavic, a general surgeon at Clearfield Hospital, is now performing a high-tech procedure that treats the underlying cause of painful, swollen varicose veins.
Dr. Kavic is the first physician in this area to use the VNUS ClosureFAST catheter, an endovenous radiofrequency (RF) ablation device designed to heat, shrink and close diseased saphenous veins (large leg veins) in approximately three minutes of virtually painless treatment with minimal after affects for the patient. The outpatient procedure is designed to treat the serious medical condition known as venous reflux disease, and is not considered cosmetic surgery.
"My patients are very happy with the new varicose vein procedure," said Dr. Kavic. "They are amazed at how little discomfort they feel, and they are pleased to be able to walk out after the procedure and resume normal activities the next day. And I have found the treatment outcomes to be excellent – the procedure is successful in closing the vein, and the patients' quality of life improves immediately."
Under light sedation ("twilight sleep"), the catheter is inserted into the diseased saphenous vein through a small puncture, and energy is transmitted through the device to heat and seal the vein walls from within the vein. The body subsequently re-routes blood flow through healthier leg veins, restoring normal circulation, and the varicosity symptoms quickly dissipate.
Clinical studies have found the procedure more than 97 percent effective at the one-year follow-up visit and virtually painless for most patients. As a medical necessity, the procedure is covered by Medicare and most private health insurance plans.
"This is a significant technological leap beyond vein stripping, the traumatic general surgery we previously used to remove varicose veins," said Dr. Kavic. "It is gratifying to provide a patient with a minimally invasive option to a medical issue they may have struggled with for decades."
More than 25 million Americans suffer from severe varicose veins, which can cause pain, swelling, fatigue and disfigurement. Half of all seniors, including two-thirds of women over 60, will experience the condition at some point. Heredity, pregnancy, obesity and careers requiring extended standing, like nursing and teaching, are the primary risk factors. Complications may include leg ulcers and dangerous blood clots.
For more information, please call Dr. Kavic's office at 814-765-8590.

An excellent shirt.
This is one of my favorite shirts, highly recommended. Do note that the colors were darker and richer than the photograph appears.
Great shirt - little short in tall size
Terrific shirt with great colors. I'm 6'5"" and the tall size is not really long enough in the sleeve.
Las Cruces, NM
Best of the best
I have been a customer of Territory Ahead for over 10 years, but I never took time to review a purchase. For example, I love T. A.'s leather for both men & women. I have the DUSTY LEATHER JACKET, & my wife has the LAMBSKIN HOODIE. So i ordered the trading post cotton shirt. When I took it out of the package, much to my surprise, the shirt looked amazingly better than what I saw on the website. The colors, for example, were beautifully muted, the fit was generous, but the most outstanding part was the feel. The texture feels nubby, & not like a cotton shirt. It has become my go to shirt for jeans & Khakis. I reccomend it, & hope you buy it before TERRITORT AHEAD reads this review & raises the price.
Milwaukee Wisconsin
Check This One Out
I actually ordered this shirt twice. I forgot it was on back-order, and when it was recently re-introduced, I ordered it again! It does not disappoint. As outlined in previous review, the colors are tastefully muted. The color scheme allows for multiple sport coat options, or it can standby itself. I take a small, and the fit was spot on. One thing, the fabric is on the heavier side, so it's not a summer shirt, (at lease not here in Virginia). I plan on going to it heavily in early Fall and again in the Spring. It's a TTA Winner!
Richmond VA
Unique Shirt
It really is - Have to give it a very high rating. I probably won't weat it our for a while since I live in Florida. Good going T.A.
Colors not what you see in catalog or online
I almost bought this shirt a second time, until I found one already hanging in my closet. The greens in the photo are gray to my eyes. It's a nice shirt. I like & wear it, but the colors are much more somber than shown in the photos.
Boston MA
Trading Post
Here's another terrific shirt from TA, similar in texture and styling of the classic West of the Winds shirt. The colors are a little more muted than what's pictured. The sizing is about right. Wear this shirt with jeans and the At Long Last suede jacket and you are the coolest cat in the beer garden.

Place 12"x12" Self Healing Cutting Mat on table with frame on mat, front side up. Hold X-ACTO® Heavy Duty Utility Knife with X-ACTO® Z Series Blade in one hand against top edge of frame, with elbow braced on table to prevent slipping. Keep other hand safely behind, holding frame from behind where blade is cutting. With knife blade almost parallel to cutting surface, push knife away from you to scrape away top veneer layer from edge. (Tip: Make random length, irregular cuts for interest.) Trim edge on all four sides. Work carefully, always keeping non-knife hand away from blade. If wood splinters, make a short cut away from you; turn frame around to make another short cut away from you, that meets the first. Always brace fingers, palms and elbows to prevent slipping and brace frame on mat. Use X-ACTO® Z Series #1 Knife to clean up any small areas of chips or splinters.
Refer to photo to lightly draw vertical lines on front (top) surface. Keeping X-ACTO® Z Series #1 Knife almost parallel to surface, slice away at veneer along those lines to reveal darker wood below.
If desired, attach sawtooth hanger. In a well-ventilated, newspaper-covered area, give frame several coats of mat sealer to deepen the natural color and protect surface. Let dry.
Apply rub-on to top of frame according to manufacturer's instructions. Use a Metal Ruler and #1 Knife on 12"x12" Self Healing Cutting Mat to cut two 2½" square chipboards with 1½" square centered opening. Use chalking ink to color. Refer to photo and position at bottom right along with buttons. Thread ribbon through key and knot. Diagonally trim ends using Precision Tip Scissors. Glue pieces to frame using CraftBond™ Quick Dry Glue Dual Tip Glue Pen. Let dry. Insert photo and enjoy!

Daily Portrait: Investigation of different approaches and limits of human portrait as one of the key genres of photographic medium is one of the main motives in works of visual artist Martin Pavel, who is working on multi-phase project Daily Portrait second year now. Project had started when photographer hired an atelier in Smíchov, where he used to invite his friends for photo sessions first. Later, people started to approach him themselves. He strived to document their faces by means of classical atelier portrait, in which the focus is to capture on the photograph each particular individuality. Resulting set of portraits should then, during reading the photographs, lead to comparison of different features and personalities of individual people and of pictures of particular generation style in different socio-cultural communities. At the same time, this reading through the "cultural" prism had to be denied by unprejudiced photographer's approach to anyone who applied for the project and primarily by his request to photograph his objects half-naked and thus with some of their socially determining surface taken off. However, photographs have shown that it is impossible in effect. Long ago we discovered how deceptive the idiom "clothes make the man" is. That is to say, specific features of the society in which we are living within different communities are embedded much deeper in our bodies.
City image - Daily Portrait II 2012-2013:
After first year of project Martin Pavel launched his second phase, this time with Polaroid photography medium. He shifted the project to even greater degree of depersonalization of portrayed persons. This time, his goal was no longer to create a portrait set of individual personalities, but a compact documentary portrait of one city. Limits of the portrait are now disrupted by shift of his focus to general context of milieu forming the portrayed objects and vice versa, created by them. Theme of his photography is now half-naked figure of the portrayed person caught in the city environment, of which he or she is usually a quiet component.
Photographer is intentionally choosing those places, which we are passing by in hustle and bustle of everyday life and by way of provoking photograph he is trying to extract the portrayed person from this environment. At the same time, his effort is to discover the nature of these places through portrayed object. In centre of his interest is the investigation of city's visual culture consisted not only of both people and typical panoramas with architecture, but also of the details of graphic signs or inscriptions. Author's aim is to capture the city as a mental picture created through individual units and details and through dominant figures with multi-layer background. Captured everydayness is expressed also via number of photographs in whole set, which counts 365 portraits representing the countdown of days in the year. For author, each photo session represented an individual meeting with hitherto unknown person. He admits that one of his motivations for photographing large number of people was his interest in meeting different individuals, which he would not have any opportunity to get acquainted with otherwise. Everyday, people are limited to personal contact only with few people present in their immediate surroundings. In many cases, even portrayed participants themselves joined the project not because they wanted to make themselves visible medially, but to demonstrate by symbolic public exposure of their naked bodies certain removal of formal barriers between the people and to point out that they do not exist in the city only as some noise or as an indifferent background creating everyday reality, but also as human beings, which you can possibly get acquainted with. Entire project is thus motivated by a social gesture of a sort, the goal of which is first and foremost to bring people living in one city closer to each other. //Text: Jana Pavlová

He has been seen and heard on Milwaukee TV and radio stations for over three decades. A longtime aide to state Senate Republicans in the Wisconsin Legislature, Kevin can be seen offering his views on the news on the public affairs program, "InterCHANGE," on Milwaukee Public Television Channel 10, and heard filling in on Newstalk 1130 WISN. He lives with his wife, Jennifer, and their lovely young daughter, Kyla Audrey, in Franklin.
The future of America
At some point during 2008, 30 percent of U.S. high school students have stolen from a store and 64 percent have cheated on a test. That's according to a survey of nearly 30,000 students in high schools across the U.S. conducted by the Josephson Institute.
The Institute reports, "More than two of five (42 percent) said that they sometimes lie to save money. Cheating in school continues to be rampant and it's getting worse. A substantial majority (64 percent) cheated on a test during the past year."
What's also troubling is that these figures are probably conservative. Today's high schoolers have a nonchalant attitude about their lying, cheating ways with more than one in four (26 percent) confessing they lied on at least one or two questions on this survey!
No doubt echoing the sentiments of their parents ("Oh, no, my Johnny would neeeeeeever cheat!), 93 percent said they were satisfied with their personal ethics and character and 77 percent said that when it comes to doing what is right, I am better than most people I know.
Not very promising.
Ban Black Friday?
A woman struggles as she comes through the doors with other shoppers at a Wal-Mart store in Secaucus, N.J., shortly after 5:00 a.m., Friday, Nov. 28, 2008. Hundreds of people lined up to get into this Wal-Mart for the annual pre-dawn Black Friday bargain hunting. (AP photo)
On the morning after Thanksgiving, a temporary Wal-Mart worker died after a throng of eager shoppers broke down the doors and trampled him moments after a Long Island store opened.
An attorney for Jdimytai Damour, the man who was trampled, is claiming he had been working at the Long Island store for only about a week when he was knocked over. In the attorney's view, the cause of death: lack of training. I prefer the current approach of law enforcement, and that is to find the people who actually trampled this poor man.
And how many people stepped on, jumped over him, or ignored him? For what? A VCR?
There's now the incredible overreaction of a call to ban Black Friday shopping.
This from the New York Post:
"We are not aware of any other circumstances where a retail employee has died working on the day after Thanksgiving," said Ellen Davis, a spokeswoman at National Retail Federation.
What happened was tragic. But ban early shopping on the morning after Thanksgiving? There has to be a way for stores to set up an orderly system outside for people waiting to get in so that shoppers are lined up single file. It's been done elsewhere for people waiting to buy concert tickets and what not. Beef up your security inside and outside the store. Have people enter the store at each doorway single file with security at the entrances armed with stop watches, allowing one person in every 15-30 seconds.
If people behave like animals over a video game, then changes have to be made. But certainly that shouldn't and won't include banning Black Friday shopping.
And those wacky liberal proposals just keep on comin'
You think Democrats aren't poised to hoist their loopy liberal agenda upon the rest of us, now that they're in power? Please, don't be naïve.
State Senator Spencer Coggs (D-Milwaukee), who is a friend by the way, hasn't introduced more than 2-3 bills of substance since he joined the state Senate. Now that Democrats control both houses of the Legislature….BINGO! Coggs comes out of nowhere with his self-proclaimed "progressive agenda."
Don't you just love liberals? They can't come to grips with or stomach calling themselves or their moonbat proposals, "liberal." Instead, they hide behind the moniker, "progressive."
Just take a look at all these LIBERAL proposals from the suddenly awakened and rejuvenated Spencer Coggs. While you read, just imagine one right after another being sucked away from you:
- Require a background check when a gun is sold or transferred between two private parties. The proposal would also close the "gun show loophole" by requiring purchasers to undergo background checks when firearms are purchased at a gun show.
- Ban most sales of handguns to persons under 21.
- Prohibit the possession or purchase of a gun by anyone who has been convicted of a misdemeanor involving a firearm.
- Require licensed and certified day care centers to equip day care vehicle with occupant alarms, which require manual disarming each time the vehicle's engine is stopped.
- Prohibit liquor establishments from opening within 300 fee of an existing day care center.
- Require that pay and benefits be ended for Milwaukee police officers fired for rules violations.
- Seek additional funding for local district attorneys to cover costs of operating witness protection programs.
- Make illegal and provide criminal penalties for those attempting to block, intimidate, suppress or deceive in such a way as to disenfranchise citizens from the right to vote.
- Seek to implement several findings of the Governor's Commission on Reducing Racial Disparities in the Wisconsin Criminal Justice System.
- Incrementally raise the state minority procurement goal to 7% in 2010 and 10% in 2012.
- Create a legal holiday in Wisconsin to recognize June 19 as Juneteenth Day.
- Allow the City of Milwaukee and other cities to create a Housing Trust Fund to promote and support affordable, quality housing in Wisconsin.
- Require a child to attend a 5-year-old kindergarten prior to entering public school as a first-grade student.
- Provide a process for school district residents to object to an ethnic name, nickname, logo, or mascot used by a school.

Those 50's drive-in sci-fi flicks were the perfect "B" movies. There were few true classics in this genre. "The Day the Earth Stood Still" in 1951 was one of them. The 2008 remake about an alien visitor and his giant robot counterpart who visit Earth opens in theaters around the country on December 12, 2008.
They just don't get it in Madison: IT'S A CHRISTMAS TREE!!!!!!
A 35-foot balsam fir now sits in the state Capitol Rotunda. Of course, anyone with a modicum of common sense or an ounce of the brains God gave him/her knows it's a Christmas tree. But this is Madison we're dealing with, folks.
It's been called the "Holiday Tree" since the 80's when cowards at the Capitol succumbed to the PC Police. In the last legislative session, the state Assembly passed a bill to call it the, "Wisconsin State Christmas Tree." While the Assembly was exercising good judgment, our clueless governor said he "couldn't care less" what the tree is called.
So what's it being called this year?
Christmas tree?
Uhh, again, this is Madison.
Xmas tree?
The same old Holiday tree?
None of the above.
Are you ready for this?
Jim Doyle's state Department of Administration has issued a release outlining some of this year's holiday events and it refers to that 35-foot balsam fir as…..
The Capitol tree.
At this time, no one knows how or why that stupid designation was chosen and no one's talking.
Madison. Pathetic.
Report: US will be hit by terrorists by 2013
A bipartisan task force appointed by Congress reports that a nuclear or biological attack by terrorists with weapons of mass destruction on a major U.S. city by the end of 2013.
The task force does say a nuclear catastrophe can be prevented and urges President-elect Obama to take a hard line with both Iran and North Korea.
No one wants to see another destructive terrorist attack in the United States. But one must wonder how the cut-and-run Democrats now in command would respond.

Memo to DNR: We are in a big deficit
The brainiacs at the Wisconsin Department of Resources strike again. The news story I'm about to share with you could only be the result of one or more of the following scenarios:
1) Governor Doyle forgot to memo the brainiacs at the DNR.
2) The memo was sent but the brainiacs at the DNR haven't read it.
3) The brainiacs at the DNR have read the memo and are ignoring it.
4) The brainiacs at the DNR don't read newspapers, watch TV, or listen to the radio.
5) The brainiacs at the DNR have been in a cave the past few weeks.
6) The brainiacs at the DNR don't understand what a budget deficit is.
7) The brainiacs at the DNR fully realize the dire straits the state finds itself in.
8) The brainiacs at the DNR have chosen once again to display the characteristics they know best (pompous and arrogant) and don't care that the state is deep in debt.
Governor Doyle has announced the state budget deficit is $5.4 billion. Even if the numbers are wrong, as some believe, the state budget is still a big mess. We're broke, again, big time.
The governor has instructed agencies to make big budget cuts. How does the DNR respond?
The Lakeland Times reports:
"The Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources is asking for a $27.3 million increase in its 2009-11 biennial budget, according to Department of Administration documents released this past week."
A reader named Mike Brostowitz commented, "What part of across the board cuts' doesn't the DNR understand? Why should the DNR get the big increase when other state departments suffer, either by employee lay off or cuts."
More than any newspaper in the state, the Lakeland Times has put heavy scrutiny on the DNR.
Want more?
DNR wardens rack up more than $2 million in guaranteed overtime.
It's nice to see that when the state is in a horrible financial crisis, Governor Doyle and the DNR are on the same page, doing their part to help beleaguered taxpayers.
Dear Franklin City Hall...
And they're called Christmas carols, thus, it should be called Christmas caroling.
Award winning reporting at the state Capitol
Because I work for the state legislature and follow state political news quite closely, I was very interested to see the 2008 winners in state government reporting awarded at the ninth annual conference of CapitolBeat, an association of reporters and editors who cover state government.
There are two winners from Wisconsin and both articles are very good reads:
Wire Services and Newspapers with more than 75,000 circulation
- Honorable mention: Ryan J. Foley, Associated Press, Wisconsin, "Financial Aid for Sex Offenders" (Foley's reporting led elected officials to take acton)
- Second place: Ben Jones, The Post-Crescent, Appleton, Wis., "One Capitol, two worlds"
We should be mad at the oil companies...why?
Remember Governor Doyle's state budget address delivered in February 2007 when the governor said:
"Oil companies have gouged this country in every way they can think of. Exxon announced forty billion dollars in profits…That's not just pure profit, it's coming right out of our pockets. Let's turn the tables on big oil."
Doyle's brilliant idea? Tax the oil companies to get back at them for their gouging.
Where's the talk of gouging now?
The Wisconsin State Journal editorial board has figured out just how ridiculous Doyle's idea truly is, but Doyle will push for it again in the next state budget. Dioyle needs to read the paper and pay attention:
"Drumming up oil company outrage was phony back when gas prices were high. So it certainly won't work now that gas is cheap."
It was 20 months ago today...
Franklin voters were told that if they didn't approve school referenda totaling over $78 million, students would be forced into trailers.
On April 3, 2007, the referenda were soundly rejected.
I've looked and looked and looked. Still haven't seen those trailers.
A UW Band parent speaks out
I recently responded to a Wisconsin State Journal editorial that suggested UW Band Director Michael Leckrone should be fired if there are any more incidents involving questionable behavior (i.e. hazing) on the part of his musicians.
I wrote, "While it's true Leckrone is in charge, personal responsibility must come into play. Leckrone cannot serve as babysitter for hundreds of so-called young adults 24/7. His job cannot be put on the line because some boneheads decided to get really stupid. The ones who are stupid should be held responsible and dropped immediately, from the band and possibly from school."
A UW Band parent e-mailed to say my blog was "spot on." The parent then wrote the following:
"The recent band turmoil has taken a toll on both of my daughters. It's apparent that the school's administration has decided to make much ado about not much….over, and over again….the conspiracy theorist in me believes the intent is to eliminate the band as a creditable course and eliminate Leckrone.
I liken the band experience to my time in the military. Leckrone puts them through hell and breaks down their selfishness until they commit 100% to the band as a whole. There are no individuals and no individual is more important than the band. Because of that shared experience and camaraderie, the band members tend to be very, very tight.
I'm well aware of the downside of that (groups can tend to lose the conscience when shenanigans are afoot), but this group is really not like that. There's definitely a few individuals that have crossed the line from time to time, but Leckrone deals with them harshly. Mike actually went all the way to the US Court of Appeals to force a member to pay one of his fines (the "F-bomb" is considered "the $200 word). http://badgerherald.com/news/2005/04/25/judge_clears_leckron.php Gauder v. Leckrone, 366 F. Supp. 2d 780 (W.D. Wisc. 2005).
Most of the behavior alleged was boorish, crude and for a lot of "normal" people, offensive. Drinking? Definitely. Excessive drinking? Probably. Underage drinking? Certainly.
But, let's not forget…these are COLLEGE STUDENTS. Sincerely, the behavior alleged by band members (much of which is unsubstantiated legend) is nowhere near the level of debauchery that occurs every single weekend at most frat houses and athletic team parties.
As the university began the most recent investigation, they asked aggrieved students to come forward and state their grievances. When no one voluntarily went in to talk to the Dean of Students, she sent an email stating words to the effect of: 'because no one is coming forward to talk to us, the band may remain suspended indefinitely.'
The upperclassmen decided to go in on their own and talk to the dean. These 'talks' quickly turned into a witch hunt. Questioning went like this (per my oldest daughter):
'Have you ever _______?'
'Have you ever witnessed anyone else doing ________?'
'Have you ever HEARD of anyone doing _________....if so, who did you hear it from and who did they say did it.'
So, now that all is said and done, what was the outcome? At last count, seven members out of 350 were found to have violated the university code of conduct. All seven received letters of reprimand, which remain in their file…..until graduation….when it is to be removed and destroyed.
The reeking stench of fishy-ness is rampant here. The university tipped off the media to the situation originally."
In a subsequent e-mail, this parent added:
"Just to illustrate the effect the university's actions have had on many of the band students, my oldest, called us one night the week the story was in full bloom in the media. She was sobbing. Her comment: 'I've worked so hard for four years…..I always thought being in the band would be such a great thing to put on a resume….now I can't do that.'
It's not so much the fact that the university did an 'investigation'. It's the way it was handled, the fiasco it created and the way they besmirched the reputation of 350 people when a handful were responsible.
Can you honestly think of any organization, having received an email 'tip', that would suspend an entire group and hold a press conference detailing the tip?
You would think the normal response would be: 'We've received an allegation of potential hazing and will investigate. We won't comment until the investigation is complete.'"
In my view, the university totally botched this entire affair.
The ACLU opposes a Drexel Avenue Interchange
In keeping with the loopy, warped, twisted, moonbat tradition of the ACLU, read why they're so upset:
For Immediate Release: December 3, 2008
Contact: Karyn Rotker, Senior Staff Attorney, (414) 272-4032 x 21; firstname.lastname@example.com
The ACLU of Wisconsin today requested a federal investigation of the Wisconsin Department of Transportation for violating civil rights laws when it decided to expand I-94.
In a complaint filed with Offices for Civil Rights of the U.S. Department of Transportation and Federal Highway Administration, the ACLU object to WisDOT's plans to widen I-94, build an new interchange at Drexel Ave., and close much of the interchange at 27th St. and I-894. The ACLU is requesting that the government investigate WisDOT, stop the widening of I-94, and prevent construction of the Drexel Interchange - especially if the 27th St. Interchange is closed.
"WisDOT's own environmental impact statement shows that building the Drexel Interchangeis likely to hurt development in the city of Milwaukee - the state's only majority-minority city -while it helps development in non-diverse suburbs," noted Karyn Rotker, Senior Staff Attorney for the ACLU of Wisconsin. Rotker added that the disparities will worsen with closure of the 27th St. Interchange. "Title VI of the Civil Rights Act makes it clear that agencies can't take actions that have a discriminatory effect on communities of color - even if the discrimination isn't intentional."
There are similar problems with spending hundreds of millions of dollars to add lanes to I-94, added ACLU of Wisconsin Executive Director Chris Ahmuty. "WisDOT has said adding the lanes is going to have only a minimal effect on travel times - and that not adding lanes could increase the market for development closer to downtown Milwaukee, thus helping city residents,most of whom are persons of color." WisDOT, however, rejected that approach.
The ACLU complaint also asserts that expanding highways without moving forward on public transportation projects has a discriminatory effect on communities of color, who are disproportionately dependent on public transit. "In a time of limited resources, WisDOT needs to ensure that it isn't increasing the disparities between those with access to cars and transit dependent persons. But that's what this plan does. Instead, WisDOT needs to ensure that a fair share of the benefits of its transportation programs are going to communities of color - who will be much more likely to benefit from increased transit access than from the bigger highway WisDOT wants to build."
Boy they're really sharp at the ACLU. WisDOT wants to put in that Drexel Interchange because they're racist.
Greg Kowalski, are you out there?

It's strange how a single color can evoke vivid memories, but when we see turquoise, we'll always think of Juli, Missy, Tomac, and the looping stays of the Yeti ARC. They raced in the early days of NORBA under the wing of John Parker, the former owner and founder of Yeti Cycles. Birthed from capital acquired through the sale of a 1928 Indian motorcycle, and using a company name swiped from a sleeping bag brand, Yeti started small while dreaming big. It moved from California to the mountain biking mecca of Durango and injected a healthy dose of inspiration into its high altitude welds. Yeti forged a long-term relationship with Easton that resulted in the advancement of its aluminum tubing technology. And Yeti was also a carbon fiber pioneer. Its short lived, but storied, C-26 experiment, and the Kaiser thermoplastic downhill bike, are now just history, but the foundation was laid for a re-emergence of carbon fiber when the time was right.
As fate would have it, Yeti fell into tough times, and nearly went the way of the dinosaurs. A few of the employees bought the company at the last minute because they cared about the products and family that they'd created. They put their houses on the line in order to make it work, and then produced the bike we all needed—the 575. A natural convergence of Yeti's XC and DH racing lineage, it's no surprise that it's Yeti's best selling bike to date. Yeti's modern carbon fiber creations are fine examples of a material whose time has arrived. Stiff, light, and beautiful-as-can-be, Yeti still knows how to build them tough enough to weather the rigors of real mountain biking. In light of its love affair with carbon fiber, some bikes are still better made from alloy, like the DJ, SB75, and 303 WC. These are still tig-welded from aluminum, so you know that they'll take a beating. In fact, Yeti bikes are real-world tested three times—at the factory, a third party lab, and once again at Yeti headquarters—in order to make sure that they're durable enough to carry you through your next race, ride, or adventure.
There's something very telling about how Yeti's employees were so enamored with the bike brand, that they couldn't stand to see it fail. Nicknames like Bubba, Griz, Sugar, and Stretch remind us that the Yeti Crew is simply a family of like-minded guys and gals who love bikes, building each with attention paid to even the smallest of details. Each derailleur hanger is imprinted with the Yetiman, our favorite furry bike icon. Yeti's cable routing is so artfully done, with custom, tiny, and well-placed alloy cable clamps, that you'll forget the bike is adorned with a mess of hoses and housing. And when you buy a Yeti, rest assured that you'll be riding a bike with a (head) badge of honor, and its distinctive turquoise accents will earn respect from those in the know.

A great easy tool to use and well thought out! It is expensive but you will get a very good result!
I rate this jig as one of the best in my shop. It is a joy to use and provides complete accuracy of hole spacing and alignment with the head. I used it recently for my 12 string head to set out the holes for the individual roller tuning machines. I would not be without it.
For some sixteen years I have been using the older model that works with a 10-mm bit, and then enlarging the hole without a jig afterwards. This works perfectly in one step.
Well made jig, easy to use. Recommended.
Not cheap but simple and easy to use, and accurate. If your making guitars regularly it's a good jig to have.
There are times when an "expensive" jig is actually a great deal. This is certainly the case in this instance. If you need to fit three on a plate tuners for slotted pegheads you can either carefully layout, setup and use a drill press to get acceptable results or you can simply clamp on this jig and using your hand drill get PERFECT results with no drama.
It makes the task of getting the tuner holes for classical guitar so much easier.

Bell's palsy is a sudden weakness or paralysis on one side of the face. It is usually a temporary condition however, recovery rate decreases with increasing age.
The exact cause of Bell's palsy is unknown. It occurs as a result of pressure on the nerve, or an infection or inflammation in the nerve.
Pressure may be caused by:
- Tumors or cancers pressing on the nerve
- Trauma from head or facial injuries
Nerve infections include:
Risk Factors
Factors that may increase your risk of Bell's palsy include:
- Family members who have Bell's palsy
- Diabetes
- Autoimmune disorders
- Infections, such as Lyme disease,HIV, old , or flu
- Weakened immune system
- Chemotherapy or linezolid use
- Pregnancy
- Smoking
- Hypertension
Bell's palsy symptoms may come on suddenly or develop over a few days. Initial symptoms may include:
- Pain behind the ear that is followed by weakness and paralysis of the face
- Ringing sound in the ears
- Slight hearing impairment
- Slight increase in sensitivity to sound on the affected side.
Symptoms of full-blown Bell's palsy may include:
- Facial weakness or paralysis, most often on one side
- Numbness just before the weakness starts
- Drooping corner of the mouth
- Drooling
- Decreased tearing
Inability to close an eye, which can lead to:
- Dry, red eyes
- Ulcers forming on the eye
- Infection
- Problems with taste on one side
- Sound sensitivity in one ear
- Earache
- Slurred speech
Late complications can occur 3-4 months after onset and can include:
- Long-lasting tightening of the facial muscles
- Tearing from eye while chewing
The doctor will ask about your symptoms and medical history. A physical exam will be done. The diagnosis is usually made with just the physical exam. The doctor may use information from health and medical history to determine a potential cause.
Concern about infections or other specific causes may require further testing.
For most, treatment is not needed. Symptoms will often go away on their own within a few weeks. Bell's palsy may completely resolve after a few months in many people. However, for some people, some symptoms of Bell's palsy may never go away. Your doctor may refer you to a specialist if you have eye problems, if your symptoms worsen, or if your recovery takes longer than expected.
If an underlying cause of the Bell's palsy is known, it may be treated. Treatment for underlying conditions may include medication or surgery.
Your doctor may prescribe corticosteroids if your symptoms have been there less than 4 days. This is a medication that can decrease swelling and pain.
Antiviral medications along with corticosteroids may be recommended if there is a specific virus like herpes or chickenpox/shingles that has caused the palsy.
Antibiotics will be given if Lyme disease is the cause.
If the paralysis includes your eyelid, you may need to protect your eye. This may include:
- Lubricant or eye drops
- Covering and taping eye closed at night
- An eye patch to keep the eye closed
Massaging of the weakened facial muscles may also help.
Physical therapy may be advised to improve function.
Symptoms can be very distressing. Counseling can help you manage emotional issues and make appropriate adjustments.
If you are diagnosed with Bell's palsy, follow your doctor's instructions.
If you are diagnosed with Bell's palsy, follow your doctor's instructions.

Not interested in building a customer base or promoting offers, promotions and events in this way? What about doing it on your own expertly crafted website chosen by you from 800 templates, created in quick and easy steps within your Inapub account? Sound more like it? Then you need our Web Connect package…
In addition to all our free super features, for just £250 per annum you can have and create your own website. Yes, that's right.
Choose from 800 template combinations, create quickly and easily through your Inapub account, customise your page content, make changes 24/7 and have a seriously smart image rotation banner, Facebook and Twitter plugin, all of which is great for customers discovering your pub in search engines.
