Saudi Arabia Pledges $1 Billion to Soviet Union
By PATRICK E. TYLER,
Published: October 9, 1991
WASHINGTON, Oct. 8— Saudi Arabia has agreed to send $1 billion in emergency humanitarian aid to the Soviet Union this fall and is working with Egypt to send Islamic "preachers" into Soviet Muslim republics to head off Islamic fundamentalism and "revolutionary themes" coming out of Iran.
The direct aid of food, clothing and medicine is in addition to $1.5 billion in credits pledged earlier to the Soviet Union by Saudi Arabia. The aid has been the subject of high-level discussions in Moscow, Cairo and Jidda over the last two weeks, Saudi and Egyptian officials say.
The Saudis have made a heavy financial commitment to the Soviet Union at a time when the Bush Administration is waiting to pledge direct aid until the economic reforms promised by President Mikhail S. Gorbachev are carried out. The Bush Administration has accelerated food credits it has made available to the Soviet Union and officials have said they are considering further assistance.
Japan announced today that it would give the Soviets $2.5 billion in emergency credits and guarantees. The announcement was widely seen as a new initiative by Japan to win back possession of islands in the Kurile chain that the Soviet Union captured in the closing days of World War II.
The European Community tentatively approved a $2.4 billion aid package on Monday that includes loans, food and medicine for the Soviet Union.
In confirming the Saudi aid package, which has not been publicly announced by either government, the Saudi Arabian Ambassador to Washington, Prince Bandar bin Sultan, said in an interview that King Fahd believed strongly that industrialized countries should try to meet Moscow's immediate needs.
"The Soviet people would like to have freedom of speech, but that is not enough, they must have freedom to eat," Prince Bandar said. "The Americans, the Europeans and the Japanese should come through with more humanitarian aid from October to December if we are to avoid another shock to the system." He said he brought back a list of urgently needed food, clothing and medicine after meeting with Ivan S. Silayev, who is the chairman of Mr. Gorbachev's economic management committee.
Upon his return to Washington, Prince Bandar said he conveyed King Fahd's sense of urgency on the Soviet aid issue to the White House in a round of meetings here last week.
The Saudi royal family has expressed internal concerns over the stability of the Soviet Union and its Muslim republics in the wake of the unsuccessful August coup in Moscow and the wave of independence movements that have rolled across the country.
Riyadh feels that the role of Iran, as a traditional Western buffer against Soviet expansion into the Persian Gulf, has been diminished by the collapse of Communist control, Arab diplomats here say. But this has not diminished the need to contain the still fervent zeal of Iran's most radical revolutionary elements, which for now command a majority in the Iranian Parliament and have not come to terms with their Arab neighbors, the diplomats say.
Saudi Arabia has distributed about $250 million in aid already pledged to Moscow and the purpose of Prince Bandar's trip to the Soviet Union earlier this month was to clarify how Mr. Gorbachev's government was dealing with incoming aid since many of the central government's functions have been undermined by independence movements in the Soviet republics.
Officials familiar with the missionary plan said Saudi money and Egyptian religious scholars will be deployed to the Muslim republics in the Soviet Union, where they will finance the rebuilding of mosques and perhaps set up special Saudi-Egyptian banks for financing other projects.
"For 70 years, those people were cut off from religion," said one Saudi official. "We will send preachers en masse and they are Sunnis and they will calm the people down," he said, pointing out that the mission will counter the "revolutionary themes" from Iran.
Iran, in which Shiite Islam is predominant, has sought to extend its influence in the Muslim republics of the Soviet Union.

Flows into and out of employment in recent recessions
May 06, 2009
Changes in the employment-population ratio are attributable to changes in the difference in flows into and out of employment. Relative to a situation in which the employment-population ratio is stable or increasing, decreases in the ratio can be attributed to a combination of declining inflows to employment and increasing flows out of employment.
During the 6-month period prior to March 2007, the employment-population ratio was relatively stable—within a tenth of a percentage point of its March 2007 value of 63.3 percent. Which flows changed to cause the ratio to drop after a period of stability?
From the most recent unemployment rate trough in March 2007 to December 2008, outflows from employment exceeded inflows to employment by about 170 thousand per month, so the employment-population ratio declined.
Comparing the flows for the 6 months before March 2007 to the period from March 2007 to December 2008 shows that inflows declined by an average of 416,000 while outflows declined by an average of 73,000. Thus, the decline in the employment-population ratio over the period as a whole was due entirely to declines in flows into employment.
In the recession of 2001, the unemployment rate was 3.9 percent at its trough in December 2000 and increased to 6.3 percent by June 2003. (The recession officially began in March 2001.) The employment-population ratio declined from 64.4 percent to 62.3 percent over the same period. The recent changes in flows into and out of employment contrast sharply with the pattern found in the 2001 downturn, as shown in the chart.
These data are from the Current Population Survey. For more information, see "Trends in labor force flows during recent recessions," (PDF) by Harley Frazis and Randy Ilg, Monthly Labor Review, April 2009.

Guess you'd better tie some. Tie it on a size 4 or 6. Good colors to tie are purple, black, and olive.

The Girl Scouts of Eastern South Carolina congratulated and honored Allison M. Huggins, JaLisa N. Decker and Megan Ashley Herlihy for earning the Girl Scout Gold Award.
Allison M. Huggins earned her Gold Award by educating others about human trafficking. Her project focused on starting a group at the North Charleston Dream Center that focused on at risk teens in the North Charleston area to help build the girls self-esteem. During the 16-week program, Allison worked with the girls on their life goals and how to attain those goals, she also arranged guest speakers in different career fields to speak with the girls and took the girls on a camping trip. Allison created a curriculum for this project and shared it with the North Charleston Dream Center so that the centers interns can continue this program every summer.
JaLisa N. Decker earned her Gold Award for her Palmetto Scholars Academy Afterschool Tutoring Program.
Her project focused on providing an academic resource, outside of the school day, to seek assistance with schoolwork. She created a peer-tutoring program in which students can get help with their homework after school. This program was such a success that current students will continue to implement it each year.
Megan Ashley Herlihy earned her Gold Award for her project, Protect Your Pooch. Her project focused on dangerous transportation of dogs in the back of pickup trucks.
Her goal was for Mount Pleasant to adopt and pass a law similar to the law in North Charleston (chapter 4 section 4-6 d). Unfortunately, a law was not passed; however, Mayor Linda Page of Mount Pleasant allowed Megan to create a PSA video about her issue and it is now posted on the towns website.

Shade-Tolerant Flowers
by Diane Linsley
The question I'm asked most often is, "What will grow in the shade?" There are plenty of sun lovers, but shade-tolerant plants are rare. Your local nursery will probably recommend hostas and ferns. But what about flowers?
Most "shade-tolerant" plants actually prefer part shade. Very few plants can survive in full shade. A few hours of morning sun is ideal. Sunlight filtering through the leaves of deciduous trees is fine.
Other factors to consider are soil quality and water. Most shade-tolerant plants enjoy rich, moist soil. Only a few will survive in poor, dry soil. You may have to experiment to see which plants will work in your garden. Here's a list of plants that can be grown in varying amounts of shade.

The 1920s was the era for old black and white movie comedies. This era was ruled by three factions: Charlie Chaplin, The Marx Brothers and Buster Keaton. The General is a very short (75-minute) but classic silent film from Keaton.

Expectations are sky high that the 2014 NASL campaign will conclude with the Rowdies raising their third Soccer Bowl championship trophy, and claiming their second title in just the past three years.
?Our expectations this season are high,? acknowledged Rowdies general manager Perry Van Der Beck, while watching the team?s first full practice at Walter Fuller Park.
?We have a terrific new owner [St. Petersburg businessman and philanthropist Bill Edwards] who is focused on providing the tools needed to pursue another championship. We added some needed depth to our roster during the off-season. And now in our training sessions, our returning and newly signed players are starting to develop that important chemistry that you see in successful teams.?
?As we know, nothing is guaranteed. But I am encouraged by the strides made during the off-season as well as what I am seeing as we begin pre-season training. Every one of these players and coaches are focused the same goal for the season: We expect to win our games.?
As they were in 2012.
Tampa Bay native JP Rodrigues was a starting defender on the Rowdies 2012 Soccer Bowl championship team. Born in Tampa General Hospital and a standout soccer star at Land O? Lakes High School, Rodrigues sees many parallels between the 2012 team and this year?s squad. ?Looking at our offseason pick-ups, you can?t help but get excited. We now have two 2013 NASL Best XI players, and if we all do what we?re capable of doing, this team should really light it up.?
Four-year starter Frankie Sanfilippo was the captain on the Rowdies? 2012 championship team and echoed his teammate?s expectations. ?This will be a special team. Maybe even more special than 2012. The real key will be dominating at home. That?s what gave us the edge two years ago. If we can rally our hometown fans behind us, if they become our loud and vocal 12th man, Al Lang Stadium will be a tremendous home field advantage. We certainly have the players to compete against anyone.?
Among these players is reigning NASL league MVP Georgi Hristov. Originally from Bulgaria (where his older brother is a local rock star), Hristov moved to Tampa Bay in 2013. After overcoming the initial culture shock (?Here, everyone says ?Hi!? to you. Even if they don?t know you! In Bulgaria, that doesn?t happen.?) Hristov has embraced his role on the Rowdies and now lives permanently in Tampa Bay with his wife and 10-month-old daughter. ?I have the coolest teammates!? he exclaimed. ?This is such an incredible group of guys. We?re all focused on winning that third Soccer Bowl championship.?
Last year, Hristov led the NASL in assists, despite missing five games with injuries. But he insists that he pays scant attention to individual accomplishments. ?This is a team game,? he said. ?My only individual goal is to give my best. If the team doesn?t win, personal accolades mean very little.?
Perhaps the Rowdies? most intriguing offseason acquisition was NASL superstar Brian Shriver. A Tampa Bay native who was a three-year team captain at Clearwater High School, Shriver led the NASL in scoring last season as a member of the Carolina RailHawks, winning the league?s coveted Golden Boot award.
Teaming the NASL?s reigning assist leader with the NASL?s reigning scoring leader could result in plenty of offensive fireworks.
?Playing against Georgi, it was easy to see that he?s a great player,? said Shriver. ?And I can tell you, I?d much rather have him as a teammate than an opponent!?
Shriver claimed it was a ?no-brainer? to sign with the Rowdies and return home to Tampa Bay, where his mother, father, brother and grandparents still live. ?The organization is clearly growing. The team is getting better and better.? But like Georgi Hristov, Shriver downplayed the importance of personal accomplishments. ?My primary objective isn?t to score goals, but to win games. It?s all about winning. I would definitely be disappointed to repeat as the NASL scoring leader, but fail to bring home the Soccer Bowl championship.?
With these splashy offensive upgrades, it might be tempting to overlook the Rowdies? defense.
That might be a mistake.
Born in Venezuela and raised in Colombia, Diego Restrepo played soccer at USF for a pair of seasons before transferring to the University of Virginia. As the starting goalkeeper for the Virginia Cavaliers, Restrepo was a key contributor on UVA?s 2009 NCAA championship team, where he was named the MVP of the ACC Tournament and the Defensive MVP of the NCAA Tournament.
He also shattered American soccer legend Tony Meola?s school records for games played (25), shutouts (16), consecutive shutouts (11) and consecutive scoreless minutes (1,176).
Now in his second season with the Rowdies, the 25-year-old goalkeeper is determined to become a champion again. ?Last year we were good enough to contend for the title, but the ball just didn?t bounce the right way,? Restrepo said with a rueful sigh. ?This year, we?re 100 percent dedicated to bringing the 2014 championship back to Tampa Bay.?
According to Restrepo, the turning point of the 2013 season was on September 29. The Rowdies led the New York Cosmos 3-1 at halftime. But they lost the game 4-3.
The New York Cosmos went on to win the 2013 Soccer Bowl championship.
?I am confident that we?ve been able to assemble a talented and experienced group of players who will provide an exciting game experience for Rowdies fans,? said Van Der Beck.
?Do we have a shot at the 2014 Soccer Bowl Championship? Absolutely! Head Coach Ricky Hill has always raised the level of game performance from his players to compete at the highest level. With Ricky at the helm coaching this talented group of players, I?d say our chances look very good.?
Van Der Beck paused, watching Georgi Hristov center the ball to Brian Shriver. The NASL scoring leader fired the ball towards the goal, only to be stymied by Diego Restrepo?s diving save.
?This year,? Van Der Beck continued, ?it?s all up to us.?

Good School in Northern Virginia
I live in the Northern Virginia area and was wondering if anyone knew of a good school? I'm wanting to start training was wondering if its better to find an all around school or start by going to three or four different schools for individual styles? I'm thinking a combo of BJJ, Boxing, and Muay Thai would be a good way to go. Also looking to start out slow, money is tight and i'm 33 so probably not going to be the next big thing in the UFC, lol but Def want to get into the cage.
Any thoughts or suggetions are welcomed.
Thanks James
Google MMA gyms in your city. Also, alot of BJJ gyms are now leaning towards MMA rather than straight grappling.
Since you want to compete it is important to find a gym that offers boxing/kickboxing, submission wrestling (no gi jits) and MMA which combines the techniques. Don't worry so much about learning styles independently of each other.
Welcome fellow NOVA member :thumb02:
I live in Arlington and recently started checking out NOVA MMA in Arlington. They offer Muay Thai, BJJ, Boxing, etc.
Go ahead and check them out at www.novamma.com and I may see ya there someday :thumbsup:

TNF Fantasy Starters: Titans Vs. Jaguars - Who To Play, Who To PassThe Jaguars, sitting at 3-6, are just one game behind the division lead and the Titans, at 2-7 on the year, are somehow only two games out. Thursday Night Football features these underachieving division rivals with surprising playoff implications for both teams.
Titans And Jaguars Limp Into Thursday Night Football MatchupThe Jacksonville Jaguars are playing better than they have in years, but still have a losing record. The Tennessee Titans have their quarterback of the future in place, but their losing ways resulted in the firing of their head coach.
Bengals Need To Win Sunday To Shed "Playoff Losers" LabelThe Cincinnati Bengals haven't won an NFL playoff game since January 6, 1990. They beat the Houston Oilers—right there, that tells you it was a long time ago—by a 41-14 score in the wild-card round of the AFC playoffs. Since then, the Bengals have lost all five postseason contests they've played in. That needs to change this weekend.
Five Things: Titans Vs. Jaguars Thursday Night RoundupIn a battle of 2-12 teams, Jacksonville overcame a slow start to earn a 21-13 win. It wasn't a masterpiece—the Jaguars totaled just 288 yards—but it wasn't sloppy either. The game featured no turnovers and just 10 combined penalties.
Thursday Night Fantasy Starters: Titans' Bishop Sankey And Jaguars' Allen HurnsYou've probably been going to Tennessee tight end Delanie Walker most of the year, and he's been quite productive with 793 yards and four TDs. However, he is highly questionable with a knee problem, and he cannot be recommended.
CBS Sports' Steve Beuerlein Talks Titans Vs. Jaguars On Thursday Night FootballTwo teams that have nothing to gain this season, but a lot to gain for next year, will battle it out on "Thursday Night Football." The future of the Tennessee Titans and Jacksonville Jaguars is quite cloudy right now, but a lot is on the line this week and CBS Sports' Steve Beuerlein took time to discuss the match-up between two very young teams.
Thursday Night Football Breakdown: Tennessee Titans At Jacksonville JaguarsIf you're wondering how Tennessee and Jacksonville, with their combined four wins, could be playing on a Thursday night at this point in the season, it's because every NFL team is guaranteed at least one primetime game and the Thursday match-ups are decided before the season.

Bam Margera
Jump to
If Johnny Knoxville was the ringmaster of the "Jackass" (MTV, 2000-2002) crew, and Jason "Wee Man" Acuña its court jester, then Bam Margera was its matinee idol and its entrepreneur. An inveterate prankster as a teenager, Margera filmed his friends as they executed skateboard stunts and practical jokes, and later released them as part of a popular video series called "CKY." The videos helped to introduce Margera to Knoxville and the "Jackass" team, who made him their second-in-command for the eventual series and wildly popular feature films. Between "Jackass" projects, Margera became a one-man operation, producing his own prank reality series, "Viva La Bam" (MTV, 2003-05) and several follow-ups, as well as directing music videos and low-budget comedies and launching his own radio program and music label. Though his career was gangbusters, his personal life occasionally slipped into toxic areas through struggles with alcohol and public altercations. But his dogged determination to make a name for himself helped carry him past most of the trouble spots, and minted him as one of the most successful independent figures in the industry.

Calderon shares her perceptions of Jewish life in America -- from A to Z, America to Zionism. This issue contains the letters C and D. For C, she states that Camp is a significant learning experience of childhood. D is for the wooden Deck that leads from the kitchen to the backyard. She sees it as a mode of relaxation used by suburban city dwellers that wish to romanticize the use of the backyard.

Region 4 News Release: USDOL: 01-257
Mon., Dec. 10, 2001
Contact: Cindy Coe
Phone: (404) 562-2300
ATLANTA -- Gei Thae Breezley has been appointed area director for OSHA's Atlanta-East area office, the U.S. Department of Labor's Occupational Safety and Health Administration announced today. Prior to his selection he served as the area director in St. Louis, Mo.
In 1977, Breezley began his OSHA career as a compliance safety and health officer trainee assigned to the Macon, Ga., area office, which closed in 1984. He has held positions in both the Atlanta and Savannah area offices, serving as a senior compliance officer, a district manager and an assistant area director.
In early 1990, he was selected for a national management team dedicated to improving the quality of OSHA's services to employers and employees, and assisting in the development of several innovative safety and health programs. In January 1999, he assumed his duties as the St. Louis OSHA area director.
"G.T. is recognized throughout the agency for his managerial and problem-solving skills," said Cindy Coe, OSHA's regional administrator in Atlanta. "One of his first priorities will be finding an effective way to reduce the number of workplace fatalities in the Atlanta area, particularly in the construction industry."
Breezley earned a bachelor of science degree in engineering from Georgia Institute of Technology and a master's degree in business administration from Georgia State University.
As the Atlanta-East area director, Breezley will be responsible for administering the federal Occupational Safety and Health Act in the 56 counties of northeast Georgia.
The Atlanta-East area office is located at the LaVista Perimeter Office Park, Bldg. 7, Suite 110, Tucker, Ga., 30084-4154; phone: (770) 493-6644.

Man faces felony trespassing chargeOctober 02,2013Man faces felony
trespassing charge
BENNINGTON A local man is facing a felony charge after a woman told police he came into her home Aug. 29 and trashed it.
Tylor McDonald, 21, of Bennington, was arraigned in Bennington criminal court Monday on a felony count of unlawful trespass into an occupied home. He pleaded innocent and was released without bail.
In an affidavit, Officer Thalia Hudson of the Bennington Police Department said she went to a womans home around 12:35 a.m. Aug. 29 after the woman reported that McDonald had come into her home and flipped over furniture.
The woman told Hudson that McDonald had tried to get into her home but she wouldnt let him in and told him to leave. However, the back window was open and McDonald was able to get inside.
The woman called a friend for help and the friend also told police she saw McDonald in the house.
According to the woman, McDonald flipped the furniture over because he was mad.
McDonald had been served a no trespass, order which forbade him from being at the womans home July 27.
According to Hudson, McDonald was convicted in March of unlawful trespass onto land, disorderly conduct and resisting arrest.MORE IN This Just InMONTPELIER A pending deal between the state and federal governments will give a big boost to...

School Notes
- St. Timothy`s School motivates children to achieve personal excellence through a vibrant yet nurturing learning environment during the formative years of pre-kindergarten through eighth grade. Our emphases on chapel services, character education, service learning and social development foster a community of inspired learners and leaders. Dedicated teachers, small class sizes, strong academic and fine arts programs, competitive athletics and innovative technology prepare our students to succeed in high school and beyond. With a commitment to socioeconomic diversity, St. Timothy`s School strives to remain an affordable independent private school. Nestled in the heart of Raleigh`s midtown, St. Timothy`s School is the only Episcopal parish day school in Wake County. Founded in 1958, it became the first non-public elementary school to receive accreditation from the North Carolina Department of Public Instruction and the Southern Association of College and Schools (SACS). Our eighth grade graduates thrive and excel in a wide range of high schools. Each year we have students enroll in local private schools as well as public high schools, including magnet high schools and Raleigh's nationally-recognized charter high school. A few students from each graduating class choose boarding schools. The important thing to remember is that our students are prepared for the rigors and workload of the high school of their choice. That choice reflects the needs, interests and personal preferences of the student and family. St. Timothy's provides a strong academic foundation to prepare students for lifelong learning and success.

Posted on 05/10/2004 8:47:06 PM PDT by quidnunc
The baby boomers are gray and nearing retirement, the nation is involved in two conflicts abroad, the economy is moving into a new, uncertain phase, officials are worrying about terror strikes at home, there's a huge debate about civil liberties raging in the country, scientists are concerned about eroding American superiority in technology, and what are we doing in May 2004? We're fighting over Vietnam. Again.
The war ended almost three decades ago. Lyndon Johnson is dead. Richard Nixon, too. William C. Westmoreland is 90 years old, Eugene J. McCarthy is 88, Robert S. McNamara will be 88 next month, Jane Fonda is about to turn 67. The United States lifted its trade embargo with Vietnam a decade ago.
This is the war that never ends. We think it fades away, and then it comes back again. In pieces I've written over the years I've personally pronounced Vietnam over, politically and emotionally, twice first when the United States and its allies defeated Iraq in Gulf War I and then, again, when Washington established diplomatic relations with Hanoi in 1995 only to be proved wrong both times. So much for my powers of observation.
The war's not over. It may never be.
"We're just haunted by Vietnam," says Stanley Karnow, author of a popular history of the war. "It doesn't go away."
(Excerpt) Read more at omaha.com ...
errrrr....you mean DemocRATS don't you?
"The campaign aspect - whether Kerry will vote like Jane Fonda and whether the president skirted his duty - is almost beside the point. But the intellectual side - whether this war is like Vietnam - is helpful. It's actually useful to wonder about dominoes again. Pakistan is a potential domino. Iraq is a potential domino. And if you think the main lesson of Vietnam is hubris, we have to remember that hubris is dangerous. We also have to remember that we are again in a place that we don't understand."
Vallely is the guy who was arrested along with John's brother Cameron breaking into an opponent's campaign headquarters during John Kerry's first congressional run.
Bit of a conflict of interest, wouldn't you think?
If true, I'd think that Kerry would want to use that as one of his many campaign themes.
You mean in the military? Citation, please...
Ping list for the discussion of the politics and social aspects that directly effects Generation-X (Those born from 1965-1981) including all the spending previous generations (i.e. The Baby Boomers) are doing that Gen-X and Y will end up paying for.
The Civil War would seem to qualify as well.
I've been on this forum a very long time and I'd be hard pressed to come up with a more despicable post than what you just spit out.
They don't come any more ignorant than you, do they?
If "Iraq" is Arabic for "Vietnam" then "Vietnam" is Lefty for "hippie mid-life crisis".
I got mine.
He's drunk in Kansas again.
The poor fellow has no more money for porn so he's hanging out at FR until he can sell some more X and pay to pound his pud.
From what I gather from his private reply, he's a real peter pumper.
The poor fellow is broke and depressed.
He never has had a real job; nothing to show for his short sorry life other than huffing away nightly in his circle jerk society meeting.
It's all our fault.
''Vietnam Remains the Only War That
America the Anti-American Traitorous Left-Wing Self-Indulgent Baby-Boomer Draft-Dodgers Can't Quit Fighting''
Rather too long for a proper headline, of course, but -- since they can't be bothered with fact, I suppose grammar and style have no place in their ''lives'' either.
I got mine, but there's no way I'm gonna open it.....until now, I never knew a FRail could look sticky.
I took the precaution of putting on my latex exam gloves before opening mine.
You just can't be too careful when dealing with "Gin-Xers"!
Who was "worried" about it? The Nixon haters were getting their rocks off. "Holiday." That's the word I've been trying to think of all these years. It was a holiday -- an extended holiday -- for millions. Some evening TV "news"casts were nothing but Watergate. It was like they were celebrating and reporting how we had just won the World Cup. Those people and some who I worked with were ecstatic.
RE: We haven't succeeded in doing that about Vietnam.
Vietnam was not about Vietnam. It was about the Soviet Union ("wars of liberation"). According to Kennedy friend James "Scotty" Reston it was about Kennedy needing to prove that he was not a wimp after Khrushchev humiliated him in Vienna in 1961. It was about preventing a worse confrontation. The way Washington handled it of course made it a worse confrontation. That is a lesson. That is a reason we "fight" the war over, dummy.
Confronting our enemies sparked violence against the U.S. by our "enemies within."
We are not "fighting the war" over and over, dummy. We are talking about our "enemies within."
We are trying to say look at what happened HERE in the U.S. Look how politics as usual (spying BY BOTH PARTIES on each other and covering it up) was used to destroy a wartime administration of the Party figthing our enemies. Look how it continues, dummy.
I personally post often about one battle in Vietnam, the Tet Offensive. Not to talk about the battle over there but to remind people about what happened HERE, dummy.
It's not surprising that the Civil War and the Vietnam will not "fade away," they are connected. There were two major efforts (at least) to start Civil War II (or revolutions) in those days. One was civil rights radicals and the other pro-communist.
"I don't need no lessons from history, I'm living now." Sure, dummy.
You mean "The War of Northern Agression", aka "The Late Unpleasantness"?
With comments like that, we'll surely remember you with the fondness you so richly deserve...
...Vice President Dick Cheney attacked Kerry's war record...
Gee, you'd think that the author would back up this claim with a direct quote or two. Maybe he just couldn't find one.
Nor do I. In the words of Lewis Grizzard, "If the North won the Civil War, how come we got Florida and they got New Jersey?"
The facts are one thing, tone of discourse is another. I will gladly look to General Lee as a model to emulate. I see you're more in the Ted Kennedy vein.
Okay - just for fun, no offense intended. how many times have you had the Banana Boat Song sung to you; 'come Mr Talleyman, tally me banana'?
I had the song in mind when I selected the screenname. But so far, no one else has been childish enough to think the reference would bother me.
That is because we LOST it!! The nation listened to the IDEALISM of YOUTH! The politicians forgot WWII and what it takes to win a WAR, the left LOVED communism, so it didn't fear them taking over the world.
That same YOUTH is NOW in charge in the political arena, the media, the press and our schools and Universities. It is NO WONDER we are a divided nation.
We shall be civil, then, and politely agree to disagree. (But I'd go light on the Sherman admiration in Georgia, if I were you.)

Chuck o splash
by Lonnie Kahler on 6/26/2012
Item poor quality and very flimsy. Will not stay in location, unit twists easily, leg collapses and rolls if layed on pool deck. Will not stay in place in pool and collapses. Top cover not fitted well to frame - appearance cheap. Overpriced for the quality of item.

text: Our life has a very distinct rhythm. It slowly took shape a few years ago. With our two children on the autism spectrum, I imagine it may always be this way.* The rhythm of our life takes two steps forward and one step back. I still celebrate the steps forward but am no longer blissfully ignorant to the step back that awaits.

Touchwood (Oaked Gambit Gin)
Lucky Bastard Distillers' combine a pin-up girl aesthetic with puns about "wood" [wood, as in what's its aged in!] for all of their barrel aged spirits. But they're not just about the bawdy jokes. Acute attention to detail and local character set their spirits apart and give them a distinctly "Saskatchewan" character. Their spirits are small batch, the ingredients are local and organic. The spirits have appreciable depth of character. Their aged gin uses their contemporary Gambit Gin as a base spirit [which features Saskatoon Berries, more on that in a moment], and then rest it in oak.
Saskatoon Berries? In the states, these small, blueberry shaped berries are known as "Juneberries," and even before that they were known as Pigeon berries. Often a feature of prairie underbrush, these small (<20 ft tall) bushes grow across the prairies of the Northern United States and along the Rockies all the way through the Yukon up into Alaska. These small "wild" tasting fruits weren't able to be grown commercially until only a few years ago. Demand is high, in part due to their prominence in local heritage cuisine such as Pemmican, jams, and even beers, but also due to their positioning by growers as the latest "superfruit." Watch out pomegranate and acai!
