I have used Documents to Go for years and have been satisfied with it. No experience with Quick Office on Android, but it was just so-so on Windows.
The information I have collected from the web is that the best office suite for android is Quick office pro HD.

I too am a quick office fan now... I also used docs to go for years

Neither Product has a spell checker !!!!!
I didnt know docs to go didn't have a spell checker. I'm in serious trouble since I can't spell
I didn't noticed whether or not the Docs app had a spell checker either. However, if you create it in Docs to Go and mail to your Gdocs, you can open it in the browser instead of the app and the misspelled words are underlined in red. At least I did. That's about as far as I've gotten, it seems kind of round about, but maybe you'll have better luck.
How does Polaris Office compare to Docs2Go and Quick Office HD?
Docs To Go does not recognize any of the Office 2010 files (the ones ending in X) and there's no option to convert, or at least I haven't figured out how to open them. I'm not sure how this impact your decision, but I thought it would be a helpful fyi. Quick Office will open them.
docs to go is horriboe in my opinion.
1. it is not tablet optimized
2. takes several steps to do simple commands
3. search funcations is buggy in PDF files and it takes forever to find anything
thats my limited 2 day experiance
May not be a deal maker/breaker but I've been useing docs 2 go for quite some time and I have never lost any data. The other day I had it open, working on a document, switshed to something else and crashed my system. Once I got it sorted out and ran D2G again it asked if I wanted it to attempt to recover my work and it did. I was impressed. Sometimes I get lazy and stupid, but thanks to D2G that time I didn't have to suffer because of it.

Recent rains bring threat of West Nile
With the wonderful rains we have received here in southwest Kansas also comes a potential problem, West Nile disease. West Nile virus causes an infection that is spread by certain kinds of mosquitoes. Most often, mosquitoes get infected when they bite infected birds. Then the mosquitoes spread the virus when they bite people or other animals, such as horses.
With the wonderful rains we have received here in southwest Kansas also comes a potential problem, West Nile disease. West Nile virus causes an infection that is spread by certain kinds of mosquitoes. Most often, mosquitoes get infected when they bite infected birds. Then the mosquitoes spread the virus when they bite people or other animals, such as horses.
Most people who have West Nile have no symptoms. Or the symptoms may be so mild that people may not even realize that they have the virus. In rare cases, West Nile can lead to swelling of the brain (encephalitis), swelling of the spinal cord (myelitis) or swelling of the tissues around the brain and spinal cord (meningitis). But very few people with West Nile will get a severe illness that affects the brain or spinal cord.
Anyone who is bitten by a mosquito may get West Nile. Most of the time people fully recover from it. But permanent problems such as seizures, memory loss and brain damage can occur, especially in children and older people. As you get older, you have a higher risk for getting encephalitis and other serious problems from West Nile.
About 80 out of 100 people who have West Nile have no symptoms and only about one out of 150 people infected develops serious illness. When symptoms do appear, they begin three to 14 days after the mosquito bite. Mild symptoms include a fever, headaches, body aches, rash (usually on the chest, back and arms), feeling very tired, no appetite, feeling sick to your stomach or throwing up. Mild cases of West Nile usually last for three to six days.
If you feel like you may have West Nile disease, see your health care provider. Next week this column will cover ways to prevent mosquito bites.

This September was all change at Anglia Accountancy Training with the introduction of the new AAT courses – that means new course names, new syllabuses and new online computer exams! To meet these changes, Anglia Accountancy Training has fully refurbished their training centre – new smart boards and a dedicated computer suite are among their many improvements.
As for the new courses the changes have addressed many of the weaknesses of the old NVQ process and consolidated on the challenges of accounting in today's working environment. Foundation has become Certificate Level 2, Intermediate Level 3 becomes Diploma Level 3 and Technician become Diploma Level 4. A brief introduction to what these changes actually mean follows.
Foundation becomes Certificate Level 2
The Foundation course was a solid qualification ensuring all students were fully competent in Sales, Purchase and Nominal Ledger. But its "belt and braces" to the extensive portfolio made it an onerous process to complete. The new Certificate Level 2 maintains the qualification's integrity covering all the same subject areas with a much more straightforward assessment approach. Computerised accounts and a business unit still remain.
Intermediate Level 3 becomes Diploma Level 3
The Intermediate Level 3 has always been rather limited in content, especially if you had already completed the Foundation element. The new Diploma Level 3 addresses these problems. VAT has now become its own separate subject, whilst Final Accounting for Sole Trader and Partnerships remains, as does the Costing paper. Spreadsheets, dropped in 2003, have been re-introduced reflecting their importance in today's business operating environment. A Cash Management unit which is based around cash flow forecasting has also been added at this level. Finally we look at Professional Ethics which have become a major issue over the past few years with high profile problems in the business world such as Enron, the banking crisis and, of course, the MP's expenses! With the changes, Professional Ethics has finally been consolidated into the course bringing AAT in line with all other accountancy exam boards.
Technician becomes Diploma Level 4
The new Diploma Level replaces Technician. In this case, the subject content and structure of the level has barely changed. The optional units of Credit Control and Audit have become more specialised, and the Project, the nemesis of many students, still remains.
Our team at Anglia Accountancy training looks forward to putting the new improved AAT courses into action this coming academic year. Full details of all units can be found here and we will of course be guiding students through the changes.

Vikings discuss moving game to Detroit
The Vikings were thrown into a serious crunch when heavy snowfall severely damaged the roof of Metrodome Stadium, causing the game against the Giants scheduled for Sunday to be moved to Detroit on Monday.
Favre telling teammates he can't play Monday
NFL Network's Jason LaCanfora is reporting that QB Brett Favre is telling his teammates that, even with the Vikings' game being delayed a day and moved to Detroit, he doesn't think he can play Monday.
Collapse could push Metrodome to priority status
Sunday morning's collapse of the Metrodome roof, causing the Vikings-Giants game to move to Detroit, will have a windblown effect that will be felt in several places.
Metrodome roof collapses; Giants-Vikings moved to Ford Field
The roof of the Metrodome in downtown Minneapolis has collapsed and will not be ready to host a football game Monday or Tuesday. The Giants and Vikings will play at Ford Field on Monday night.
Giants-Vikings game moved to Monday night
A heavy snowstorm and blizzard-like conditions have prompted the NFL to reschedule the Sunday game between the Giants and Vikings in Minneapolis. The game is now scheduled for 7 p.m. CT Monday.
Flaherty has helped hold Giants' O-line together
The Giants have done a great job of dealing with constant injuries to their offensive line, and the quality coaching of Pat Flaherty has been a big reason why.
Giants stranded en route to Minnesota
The Giants were scheduled to fly from New York to Minneapolis this morning, but a severe snowstorm in the Twin Cities forced the team to divert to Kansas City. The team will spend the night in Kansas City, and it ...

Giants find ideal backfield mix
The Giants' recent backfield changes could have had a negative impact on multiple players, but instead it looks like they have found the right mix in which everyone can thrive.
One of the constants on the New York Giants offensive line over the last seven-plus seasons may be missing when they face the Bengals (3-5) in Cincinnati. Snee practiced for the first time this week on Friday and his status for Sunday's game has been listed as questionable.||||||| The son-in-law of coach Tom Coughlin, Snee has missed starting only one game at right guard since 2005. That was last year when he was sidelined by a concussion. Snee had an ankle rolled in the first quarter of this past weekend's game against the Pittsburgh Steelers.
Snee is out against Buffalo due to a concussion.||||||| Snee suffered the injury in a 36-25 loss to Seattle. The Giants' running game has been abysmal, and Snee's absence should further weaken what was once a major strength of the team. Snee had a streak of 101 consecutive starts snapped.
Snee will miss the New York Giants' preseason opener against the New York Jets.||||||| Snee, the right guard who has played in consecutive Pro Bowls, has been bothered by swelling in his leg.
Snee and tackle David Diehl of the New York Giants have been added to the NFC Pro Bowl team.||||||| The Giants announced Monday that Snee and Diehl will replace Jahari Evans and Jonathan Stinchcomb of New Orleans, who will not play in the game because the Saints advanced to the Super Bowl.
The New York Giants guaranteed that their offensive line will stay together for the foreseeable future, signing Snee on Wednesday to a six-year, $43.5 million contract extension.||||||| A former second-round draft pick, Snee has started all 59 regular-season and six postseason games that he has played for the Giants. The former Boston College product has started 48 consecutive regular-season games. He missed the final five games of his rookie season because of an inflamed gland under his jaw.

Bloggers and Journalists at DAC – Two Years Later
It was a mere two years ago when the first Birds of a Feather (BoF) Blogging session took place at the Design Automation Conference (DAC). The event marked one of the first "official" meetings between traditional journalists and the growing number of bloggers in the Electronic Design Automation (EDA) chip industry. It was not a cordial meeting. Each group knew about the other's existence but didn't seem to appreciate the other's challenges or point-of-view. (Previous blogs cover those "interesting" times.)
Today, the editorial landscape has greatly changed. Many of the long time technology journalists no longer write for publishers, but for the corporations they used to cover. While the number of journalist in publishing houses have dwindled, the number of bloggers have soared. Sean Murphy, one of the drivers behind the first BoF blogger's meeting at DAC in 2008, estimates that there will be 500+ feeds for EDA related bloggers by 2011.
To their credit, the organizers of DAC have evolved in the way they deal with journalists and bloggers – both independent and corporate. The initial problem DAC faced was how to evaluate bloggers in terms of their number of readers, areas of coverage, background, and bias. Over time, these questions more or less answered themselves, as certain bloggers gained readership and focused into definable technology niches.
The next hurtle that DAC faced was a logistical one, namely, should bloggers be given press credentials and allowed into the press room? It turns out that the answer to this question follows directly from a more basic question; What is the purpose of the press room?
Press Room or Blogospher
To answer this question, Michelle Clancy, the current PR Chair for DAC, talked with several well-known EDA journalists. They told her that the press room was traditionally meant to be a relatively quiet place where editors and journalist could go to write their stories, i.e., meet their deadlines. It also provided a reserved environment where journalist could share impressions, topic ideas and the like with their colleagues, away from the pressures of exhibitors and even sponsors. Of course, the press room was also a place of sustenance – plenty of caffeine and carbos.
For these reasons, the press room was physically removed from the exhibitor floor. Further, press rooms were off-limits to exhibitors.
But constant access to exhibitors is exactly what most bloggers want. "The majority of their (blog) coverage over the last several years has been exclusively on exhibitors," notes Clancy. In addition, bloggers don't face the ever present pressure of daily deadlines.
All of these factors suggested that bloggers didn't need a press room as much as a blog space located on the show floor. That is why this year's DAC will introduce the "Blogosphere" for Independent Online Media/Bloggers. Located on the show floor, the blogosphere will include a "relaxing, quiet lounge with quick access to the exhibit floor," Internet access with a workspace and beverages – among other things.
In addition to tailoring the different environments – press room and blogosphere – DAC will also issue separate badges. Traditional journalists will continue to receive a press badge. Bloggers who have met the media requirements will receive an Independent Online Media/Blogger badge. Different badges will help exhibitors and customers know to which group they are talking.
How have these proposed changes been met by both journalists and bloggers? That will be the topic of next week's discussion. Regardless of the reaction, one thing is certain: There will be more bloggers than traditional journalists at DAC this year and for the foreseeable future.

So, John, do I detect a hoidy toidy attitude here? I used to be a print journalist–like a lot of my friends–until the magazine folded, now I run what I consider an online magazine (products, news, design articles, etc., not just opinion). OTOH you're a blogger but still have a print book to lend you legitimacy. Do you get to use the press room while I and my cohorts get relegated to a roped-off part of the pit? I need a quiet place to write, too, away from the cacophony of barkers with electret mikes taped to their lower lips. Could I get that if I killed a few trees?

DAC Yesterday, Today, and Tomorrow…
About a week ago, I got an email from someone I know doing a story on how the Design Automation Conference has changed with respect to bloggers since the first EDA Bloggers Birds-of-a-Feather Session 2 years ago. I gave a thoughtful response and some o…
Hi John. Ouch … Didn't mean to sound arrogant. But then we both know plenty of bloggers who are really just consultants – meaning that they blog to get business, not to cover a market, not to provide impartial editorial, etc.
BTW: I didn't come up with the idea of separation between the press room and a blogosphere. I'm just reporting it.
But I think – hope – you'll agree with me that no journalist would want the press room to turn into an exhibitor's circus as was the case at the recent Emb Systems Conf. Talk about a cacophony of noise. It was impossible to get any work done.
For what it's worth, I plan to spend as much time in the DAC blogosphere as in the press room. Of course, what that actually means is that I'll spend the majority of my time huddled in a small, dark paneled 10×10 foot room wrestling for air with the other poor soles in the interview rooms. Ah, the life of a journalist.
Harry – You jumped the gun with your blog! I'll cover the great inputs that you, JL and other sent in next week's article about bloggers at DAC. I'm really just waiting for a few pictures.
This week was coverage of the new access conditions and reporting areas between "trad journos" and "bloggers."
JB, there may be bloggers who are consultants showing off their knowledge or capabilities, or those looking for their next opportunity doing similar (count me in that group), but any meaningful input is worthwhile. Whether it counts as journalistic or op-ed (opinion, editorial). I would rather hear a novel observation or an opinion that even disagrees with my perspective, rather than a repeat of a press release …
Hi Gary. OMG – please no more rewrites of press releases. Couldn't agree more!
Both bloggers and – believe it or not – hardened journalists do have novel observations. Both have a place in the media. Indeed, the former now have more positions than the later.
I am both a blogger and full-time editor/journalist, so I (hopefully) embrace both viewpoints. But this blog was writen to present DAC point-of-view between these two types of media folks – not necessarily mine.
Appreciate the input. Cheers. — John
# John Donovanon 02 Jun 2010 at 11:27 am
John, I didn't mean to snap at you, though I wouldn't mind a pointer to someone at whom to snap. I think the distinction between print vs. online editors is meaningless, and the one between editors and bloggers–while not non-existent–is hard to define, and any attempt to enforce one is bound to raise hackles, to my mind unnecessarily. Screen out the obvious hobbyists and marketeerrs and let's go forward from there.
Enforcing decorum in the press room would go a long way toward addressing the underlying reason for segregating out bloggers; no entry without a press pass or you have a pre-booked interview room. Have separate interview rooms and make people book them in advance. No cell phones or loud conversations in the press room. Have enough room (and electrical outlets, please!) to accomodate demand (like Moscone, not SCCC). In Anaheim, that would mean moving a partition to enlarge the room I used at MTTT-S last week.
Hopefully the Powers That Be at DAC will take these suggestions under advisement.
Regards, John

[Preface / Disclaimer: I'm in the corporate blogger category -- I blog under my own name for Cadence, as well as support two team blogs for the products I support.]
Hi John, et.al.,
I have to say I'm surprised that this "blogger or press?" question is still alive. Leveraging Grant Martin's observation above:
"Good information is good information no matter who writes it, and whether it is written in some site on the exhibit floor or in some cloistered enclave."
In the end, it's the reading public — end users, CAD managers, executives, analysts, EDA vendor personnel of all disciplines, etc. that will determine for themselves what and where the "good information" is, factoring in/out the risk of bias and quality as they go.
Regarding the specific issue of separate press vs. blogger rooms:
While snacks and other amenities are great, as long as there is a quiet place somewhere closer than the hotel with tables & chairs, power sockets, and high speed internet connections, what else do you really need? Ignorant of the sumptuous trappings in press rooms of yore, why not just have one large conference room reserved as a "study hall", with an adjacent power+networked room for "noisy" activities (like when you need to make a voice call to explain a diagram, have an impromptu conversation with another writer, etc.)
Finally, inspired by this article, my colleague Tom Anderson today posted "Bloggers and Journalists and Gadflies, Oh My!":
He expertly captures the corporate blogging experiences here at Cadence, and my positive feelings about the whole enterprise in general.
Joe Hupcey III
Hi Joe. Sorry, partner, but I must disagree. Perhaps people still ask this question because it's relevance hasn't changed. As both a blogger (before it was called blogging) and journalist, I am acutely aware of each perspective when ever I write – regardless of the "goodness" of the information. Each type of engagement has a very different perspective. The blog is more self reflective. In comparison, the journalistic or editorial approach strives to subsume the author – to represent the story through the words and perspective of others.
Naturally, the context is also relevant. For example, I don't expect to see blogs discussing/supporting Synopsys latest tools on a Cadence site. But I would expect such coverage on a publisher site or – occasionally – a blog site.
These differences are fundamental and will never change. Blogs used to live on the "opinion" pages of newspapers. Now they live online and are open to anyone. This is not a value statement. Rather, it's a set of working definitions.
# John Donovanon 12 Jun 2010 at 5:57 am
Hi John. This is apparently a conversation still worth having, and I appreciate your distinctions, which I almost accept.
I agree that the straight opinion piece should remain on the editorial page and that reporters should just report the facts. But it's more complicated than that. There are always more facts in a given situation than you can report, and your selection of which facts to report necessarily reflects your biases–rather, judgment if you prefer. While reporters try to stay out of their reporting, it's their judgement and powers of observation that earn the respect of their readers. The same is true for bloggers, who are just more explicit about their opinions. Credible blogs fall somewhere between the front page and the editorial page in terms of content. I personally favor an online magazine format, with straight reporting side by side with various blogs–v. EE Times, EDN, etc. I read Brian Dipert's feature stories as well as his blog, which is both informative and a lot more fun than his stories–which is as it should be. So I still largely buy your distinction.
Corporate bloggers have a heavier burden to shoulder, since their biases–or at least their constraints–are presumably up front. Corporate blogging has provided a home or at least a good income stream for a lot of ex-print journalists. I don't think they sacrifice their credibility when then do this, but they do put it on the line when they become the 'human face' of a company and part of their marketing effort. The ones I follow walk that line quite well.
All said, I don't see DAC not allowing Tom Friedman or David Brooks into the press room, despite the fact that they're primarily bloggers (not counting books). I find it pretty parochial that DAC is the only remaining trade show where "bloggers vs. journalists" is still an issue. Just increase the size of the press room (remove a partition) and enforce decorum and this discussion becomes moot. There's an attitude at work here that I don't consider to be helpful.

Winning the back pages with multiple firings and re-hirings of Billy Martin and other such shenanigans? Thanks, but no thanks. The stands were still not full. Lots of papers got sold though.
Yes, they knew about ARod's injury early and they got Youkilis. Not perfect, but he's not supposed to be a mainstay here, just a stop-gap.
Derek's injury? They expected him back for the beginning of the season, and they have Nunez and Nix.
Granderson's injury? I'm sorry, you cannot foresee that one.
Teixeira is problematic. Swisher was a perfect backup for Tex at first. No ready answer for that one, and Tex had enough nagging injuries last year to make you think you have to know who would fill in for him.
The bench is always going to be guys you're taking a chance on. They are not first stringers.
Good to see Ronnier get another look and set of AB's at 3rd.
Make the most of it kid.
I'm going to check out the site.
I've tried to prepare myself for the Transition.
And for a couple of years of less than stellar finishes.
In return we get to rebuild and reset the Tax. Maybe build a new Dynasty.
So going forward the Yankees should be in good shape.
Now. maybe not so much.
We do have excellent Pitching. But do we, or will we, have a enough O ?
That remains to be seen but I do not blame anyone for having their doubts.
I have them too !
When the season starts I would say its a good bet most teams will pitch around Robbie with this surrounding cast of characters.
Doreen – In regards to your post in the last thread, it's really important to note (IMO anyway) that the Yankees could keep their payroll exactly as is next year and save close to $6 million dollars with the new CBA.

"The Yankees were picked for either 4th or dead last."
as I said yesterday…..Espn is loving this "yankees are doomed" storyline almost as much as they loved the "Red Sox are the best team ever" one from a couple of years ago……we saw how that turned out.
The Yanks have issues…..but if they can get healthy I think they could be good enough to make the playoffs with the pitching they have.
100% agree.. it's really a product of the lack of solid competition. Now, granted, every team every year has question marks but there's no 'team to beat' in our division right now. It isn't like the Nats in the NL East where it's hard to find a hole.
I would say the Jays are a Team to beat.
Unless of course you believe the injury bug will bite them as well.
Teixeira is problematic. Swisher was a perfect backup for Tex at first. No ready answer for that one, and Tex had enough nagging injuries last year to make you think you have to know who would fill in for him.
Swisher at 5 years 75 mill? Sorry, Yanks were right to let him go, even if they had a crystal ball and foresaw Tex getting hurt
And the Rays aren't too shabby either.
Most of the Teams in the AL East have improved.
I see the level of competition even more difficult for the Yankees this season.
Perhaps. But it is the principle of the thing. It is the whole idea of paying money for nothing for years, and finally getting the chance not to. In the long run, we all hope it will be worth the sacrifice.

And the Rays aren't too shabby either.
Is their O better than the Yankees?
Tackleberry -
I've said before, I wouldn't have signed Swisher for what he went for, and I don't believe really that Swisher was going to take less from the Yankees, at least not significantly less.
All I'm saying is that for 4 years they had a ready backup for Tex whose name happened to be Swisher, but they do not have that right now by any name.
Unless they put Youk at first and let someone else have 3rd.
Probably better than the injured form.
They have improved from last year IMO in that department.
Getting Will Myers could have a big impact at some point.
The problem with Swisher is that they probably shouldn't have given him that contract if they are serious about this budget…..but at the same time….they could REALLY use him right now…..
we have talked a whole lot about the risks of signing Swisher to a deal like that……what we are seeing now though is the flip side….the risk of not doing it, especially when you don't replace his production….double edged sword.
I knew first hand the embarrassement that was George.
RS fans were quick to harrass me for the circus he provided.
Doreen – I think qualifying it as 'finally getting the chance to' is misleading. They could have started to be more fiscally conservative at any point before this or any point after this… but they're choosing to do it at a time that makes the least amount of sense in regards to current contracts and talent.
If they decided to slowly roll back to below $177 targeting 2015 or 2016, I'd be much more on board with the plan because at that point you have legit prospects that will be/should be hitting to fill out your roster.
blake – There's also the 'risk of not doing' the trades for Swisher that many suggested. To let guys that valuable walk for nothing when you know you aren't planning to retain them (or even tenure and offer) is ass-backwards given their monetary goals.

Phil Hughes likely to start the season on the disabled list http://dlvr.it/36s2pN #mlb #hbt
yes…there is risk in everything….clearly the Yanks decided the money risk was higher than the other ones in this case.
Unfortunately that has become a familiar refrain with Phil.
Someone please tell the weather gods that winter's over.
My kingdom for a day that reaches 50 degrees.
Winter is coming….
Amen, brother. Had some snow flurries here around daybreak.
You people should move out West.
Time to walk the Mops.
The curious case of Philip Joseph Hughes… I still think he'll end up notching 11-15 wins for us this year. Maybe he'll go on a surge before the deadline and they'll move him if Nova bounces back this year.
Have a feeling this lineup is gonna put up 10+ today.
Shame, well, they were. they had been trying to keep payroll at about an even level for a few years before this.
I just have to think it is not frugality at play here. Just not wanting to "give" their money away for nothing. Take the savings out of it. It is just the principle of the thing. They don't want to pay that tax. Period. And they have an opportunity to get out of paying it for a few years, or at the very least lessening it.
Reading all these comments about how the Yankees are about to re-enter the late '60s and hte CBS years and Old George as the savior may have some historical merit however how does that explain the Stump Merrill years (also under Old George's ownership) where the same guy, with the same willingness to spend money, had teams that were probably worse than the teams of the '60′s?
Inquiring minds want to know…
In the long run, resigning Swisher would have ended up becoming another albatross contract around their necks. I'm willing to suffer alittle in the short term rather than go throuh another declining free swinger who chokes when the playoffs come around. The one thing I do question the FO for and hold accountable for is their unwillingness to spend on the International free agents. No reason they couldn't have made stronger bids for guys like Chapman, Cespedes, and Puig. They did make a strong bid for Soler, but the Cubs shocked everyone by going to a 9 mill per year offer as they were determined to get him no matter what
It's hard to trade guys away when you're still competing for the WS. Who would have played right field for the Yankees last year if they traded him for prospects? And perhaps they don't get to the playoffs?
We don't know the alternate reality.
Here is the thing about Swisher, was he good allocation of resources (both financial and position/hitting) for the next four to five years? This is a question the Yankees have been asking themselves more and more so, and probably would have helped them in the past with ARod, though Cashman did speak up at the time.
For me, the answer is no, he would have been another quick fix this year, but going forward is that someone to commit to even if just for four years.
The same goes with the Granderson/AJax trade (and the trade was not about AJax vs. Granderson, it is about Ajax vs. Gardner, because the Yankees were going to replenish Damon's lost production with an established hitter, it was just a matter of who do you keep and who do you trade: AJax or Gardner – and don't think Gardner did not have value, the Tigers knew he had 2010 and 2011 in him). Anyway, that deal was the Yankees saw more value over the next fours in Granderson than AJax. Turned out to be correct. Now over the next four years, AJax might turn out to be more valuable, but that is not what that trade was about.
In many, the Yankees could start operating more and more like the Giants, not overreacting to trades and injuries, trying to have "next man up," not always making the splashy FA. Now, NFL there is a cap, but event hen, the Giants to not usually operate the way some teams do with moving the money always around to get the next shiney toy (see Dallas Cowboys and Washington until last season).
The Yankees could very well have number 3-5 starters homegrown in 2014
They could also have a 2/3 homegrown OF by 2015 (go back to resourse allocation with why Swisher is probably good for this year, not so much 2014 and beyond) and a homegrown catcher at some point in 2015/2016.
Add to it increasing pitchng depth to deal from to fill positional need of 3b
As for SS, that is where asset allocation of FA will also come in, the same with 2b, as both Cano and Andrus will loom large as FA targets in the 2013 and 2014 offseason.
I dunno. That Swisher contract is an overpay, but Swish has been a remarkably consistent player and he plays low-impact positions.
I think Cano's coming contract is way more alarming.
Ah, but Cano is a different story altogether. He is an "elite." Swisher is good, very good, but not elite.
And with the old guard passing the baton, they really do need a "guy," and who other than Cano?
Now, who knows? Maybe the Yankees are willing to let Cano go if the cost and/or years gets too high in the stratosphere? Could definitely happen. But I think they'll try very hard to retain him, and won't go down without a fight.
I guess, as Carly alludes to, you have to pick your battles.
No reason they couldn't have made stronger bids for guys like Chapman, Cespedes, and Puig. They did make a strong bid for Soler, but the Cubs shocked everyone by going to a 9 mill per year offer as they were determined to get him no matter what
How do we know how strong a bid they made on these players?
I don't get why people were or are defensive about a team spending their own money. It was great when other teams were jealous of our ability to spend rather than now when they laugh because we cannot.
Nothing has changed with regard to spending. It has always been the Yankees choice to spnd over the cap to try to win. Now, the cap trumps winning despite any statements to the contrary.
Less and less players are making it to free agency when they are still in their prime and the Yanks just don't seem that into going after IFA so they will rebuild this team straight through the draft? Scary thought
Yeah Doreen, point is just that Cano's contract will be far and away higher risk than Swisher's. At the same time, yes, it's apples and oranges.
And, I dunno, signing Cano to an 8-10 year deal isn't a passing of the baton. You're getting 2 more prime years or so, and then, most likely, decline. Cano is not a long term fix, in my opinion.
Cano will be roughly two years older than Tex when he signed with the Yankees…
Have we seen a successful mega deal to a 30+ player?
I think a distinction can be made in that it's not so much they cannot spend as it is they are choosing not to. Which means at a nod from Hal, they can start spending at any time if this does not go the way they hoped.
And they have an opportunity to get out of paying it for a few years, or at the very least lessening it.
Again, my issue is that they've had this opportunity all along and will also have this opportunity whenever they want going forward. It makes very little sense to fit a circle into a square at this point, and it's hard to imagine if this were based on 'principle' that they wouldn't have done something sooner. The boys were in charge when they resigned Arod, Tex, got CC, and Soriano.
I wish they would have either discovered their principles sooner or were willing to eat crow for a little while until we're in better shape to start adhering to them.
And to ask if we would have made the playoffs in 2012 without Swisher while also saying we shouldn't have retained him seems at odds with itself. There were replacements for Swisher out there (we got one in Ichiro!) or even Grandy who was coming off an MVP year. If they were serious about reassessing their budget they needed to move one or the other for some sort of return. It's going to be sad to lose Grandy for nothing this year..same for Hughes if we don't retain him. I'm still not sure what they'll do with Hughes.. if you guys had to pick between spending $$ on Hughes or Grandy (assuming we retain Cano) who do you pick? I think I let them both go and try to resign Kuroda on a one year deal lol.
RadioKev -
I know, I know. there's no perfect thing here. But I would think the Yankees would be loathe to see Cano playing for someone else.
Most long term contracts don't wear well, and I don't like them. But they're not going anywhere.
Shame -
They want to be able to spend money they way they want to spend it without the tax. In the past, sure, they could have avoided paying tax by not ever going over that threshold. I think they want to be able to go over the threshold and not pay the tax (or at as high a rate), and this is the first time they have the opportunity to do that.
If I understand correctly, they only have to keep at 189 for a couple of years in order to go back to spending whatever they want luxury tax free (or discounted).
And 189 is a lot of money. the problem is they're not getting production from ARod and probably won't get any going forward.
I think the megadeal is the logical conclusion of the old free agent model. The young mega-extension is becoming the new model, and I think their could be greater benefits going that course.
My favorite comment about the Cardinals letting Pujols go, I don't remember who said it, was that the Cards got 10 years of the Beatles and now the Angels get 10 years of the solo Beatles.
I think we've gotten Robbie's Beatles…
Firstly, the teams of the late 60s were the worst teams of my lifetime. Last place, for example. Losing over 90 games. The cause was CBS running the team as a corporate asset.
I don't recall anyone recommending poor managers or stupid spending. What I personally recommend is a willingness to pay fair market value for players as other teams do even if the contract extends into the dreaded 2014 and beyond.
They acted this off season unlike any other team in baseball. They would not enter into multi year contracts other than the inexplicable two year deal to a 40 year old.
We recommended trading Swisher when he had value. We recommended signing Cespedes at a reaonable sum for his ability. We recommended Chavez be resigned or at least offered a contract.
The logic of "teams can spend and still not be good" means a team should not spend escapes me.
Reality is a team that will spend improves their chances to win. It was spending and not some crafty front office work that has been a critical factor in the success of the last decade and a half.
You can support the Hafner, Rivera, Francisco approach. I see it as a sure way to diminish the team, cause loss of fan support and loss of income.
Doreen – It was my understanding they could have reset the tax amount in the last CBA as well… we'll ask JF when he's around later. I don't believe the new CBA presents them with any new opportunities.

Cumberland Times-News
WALDORF — James Cameron Meyers (known to all as Jim) passed peacefully from this life the morning of Feb. 13, 2013, after a brief hospital stay. He was supported by his family and caregivers during the last days of his life.
Jim was born in Cumberland, and lived in his childhood home in Lonaconing most of his life. He has lived in Charles County since 1998, first with his brother, brother's wife and nephew, and since 2009 at his own residence with Spring Dell, who operates an assisted living program for the developmentally disabled in Charles County.
Jim is survived by his brother John, John's wife, Cathy and their son Evan, his adopted family of Cathy's relatives, Bill and Emilie Long, Aunt Polly, and the extended Long family; his aunt, Babs Meyers, aunt Peggy Meyers, uncle De Sales Meyers, uncle Mike Meyers, and many first and second cousins.
He was preceded in death by his mother, Elizabeth Meyers (1991); his father, John C. Meyers (1998); his favorite aunts and uncles, Mary, Catherine, Margie, Joe and George; and his favorite dog, Storm.
He worked at Friends Aware in Cumberland until early 1998 when he relocated and began work at Spring Dell Center in La Plata, where he worked until his death. He was a fan of Star Trek, high school basketball, especially Valley High School, collected squeeze wallets and dental floss boxes, and was an avid and skilled bowler. The family celebrates that in his passing Jim gave a great gift by being an organ donor.
He will live on in the hearts of his family, caregivers, and friends. He was with truly accurate certainty, a notable presence in all the lives of we who knew him. So that is his memorial; his laughing, unforgettable presence.
The visitation and service were held on Saturday, Feb. 16, 2013 at 11a.m. at the Raymond Funeral Home, Washington Avenue, La Plata.
Burial will follow after his final trip home to Lonaconing, where he will be interred with his parents at St. Mary's Cemetery.
Eichhorn-McKenzie Funeral Home, P.A., Lonaconing, (www.eichhornmckenzie.com) handled the final arrangements.
To honor Jim, donations may be made to Spring Dell Center, La Plata, or any charity of the donor's choice.

So...some guys (ahem Polomontana) think that getting a guy like Kris Humphries is a good thing...especially when it would cost us next to nothing. We get rid of an expiring contract in Boobie Gibson (who really only has a shot at making any kind of a positive impact on this team if our guard rotation sees a major injury.) We get a guy who put up a 13.8/11.0 season with a PER of 17.8. As a stat junkie, I can dig those kinds of numbers.
But there is always a cost...there's always a figure...and there's always a different way to view things.In this case, there's looking beyond the numbers. The obvious ones that are in your face. He did show bigger jump in rebounds and points scored. But a big man that takes nearly 11 shots per game should probably make more than 14 points, right? Last year was only the second time in his career that he hit over 70% of his free throws too...and that's not a good number to be below. Statistically, that seems like an outlier. An anomaly. His big jump in minutes played had a lot to do with his statistical numbers moving up...and lets face it, somebody on the Nets has to score the ball, right? And somebody on the Nets has to get some rebounds, right? Brook Lopez is OK, but he's far from a stud. He can score the ball, but his rebound numbers leave a lot to be desired.
Then there's the cap flexibility. Yes, the Cavs can afford to take on his salary, but does that mean they should? As a Soldier, I am required to be physically fit. I run on average of 15 miles per week...which isn't bad, but isn't great. I can afford to eat Twinkies every day and not actually gain weight. Just because I can eat those Twinkies, doesn't mean I should. Long term, I don't gain enough to justify the urge for a few early calories/carbs after my run. There are better alternatives. While Humphries would show to be a statistical improvement over the PF's on our roster, the long term gain is what...5 more wins per season? Even 10 wins...is that enough to justify the payment of 8M per season on a guy who (at the age of 27) will be on the wrong side of 30 when Kyrie is beginning to hit his prime? He's only 2 years younger than Andy...and not nearly the defender that Andy is. His Per 36 minutes comparison?
Andy - 12.4 PPG, 13.2 RPG, 2.0 AST, 2.1 TOV PER: 18.9
Kris - 14.2 PPG, 11.3 RPG, 1.5 AST, 2.0 TOV PER: 17.9
That was last year. At 27, I think it's safe to say that Kris improving much more isn't likely to happen. Especially defensively.
Then there's Tristan to think about. Zeller is a legit Center. Maybe not a legit NBA center, but let's face it, he's not a PF. Andy is ideally a PF...but can play C for us in the event that Zeller doesn't work out. Tristan is a guy who has played Center out of necessity, but I think we all know that his best position is likely to be PF. (Yes, there are some who would like him at SF...but his shooting stroke and handles need significant improvement as a PF...let alone trying to step out to the SF position.)
Humphries didn't see a 7 points per game seasonal average until his 6th year in the league. It wasn't until the last two seasons that Humphries actually became a double double guy. In his first season in the league, TT averaged 8.2 points and 6.5 boards. That's the kind of numbers Kris Humphries had in his first 44 games with the Nets in the 2009/2010 season. Again, that's his 6th year. That's 6 training camps. Tristan didn't even get one.
To add to this further, Tristan's per 36 of 12.5 points and 9.8 rebounds are better than Humphries first two seasons and on par with his third season (12.2 points and 10.0 rebounds.) 3 full seasons, 3 full training camps...and still he is only on par with a rookie PF that had to play in a lockout-shortened season without the benefit of one training camp.
Yes, Tristan's FT% of 55.2 was beyond reprehensible. Imagine him shooting a 43.2% or a 52.3% like Hump did in his first two seasons.
Kris would be a nice addition...for the right price. But a 4 year guaranteed deal that provides minimal gains...and possibly stunts the growth of a guy who has already looked to be better than Humphries first few seasons in the NBA is ridiculous. A handful of more wins is not worth it to me. And it's clearly not worth it to Chris Grant.

The early '90s were spoiled for choice when it came to comic book adaptations. Not only was Batman: The Animated Series on the air, but X-Men led Marvel's push to get on the small screen, diving right into the often convoluted continuity of everyone's favorite mutants, luring in a generation of fans, and paving the way for cartoons to follow. That's why we've set out to review every single episode of the '90s X-Men animated series.
This week, it's the finale of "Beyond Good And Evil," and honestly, your guess is as good as mine.
Problematic 'Powerpuff Girls' Variant Cover Pulled By Cartoon Network
By Andy Khouri
A variant cover for a new issue of IDW Publishing's Powerpuff Girls comic book sparked a bit of a debate over its depiction of the titular, pint-sized heroines as young adults in revealing outfits and heavy makeup. Although the piece by Mimi Yoon was commissioned by PPG licensor Cartoon Network to be offered specifically to direct market comics shops as a collector's item — as opposed to the "mass market" version for readers of all ages featuring a more traditional PPG cover — the company has decided to cancel the variant over fans' and retailer concerns about its appropriateness.
James Avery, The TV Voice Of Shredder And War Machine, Dies
Many of the obituaries for actor James Avery, who died late Tuesday night at age 68, have focused on his work playing Uncle Phil on The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air.
And while that show was certainly Avery's most visible role, he spent decades compiling an incredibly impressive voice acting resume, providing the voices for characters including Shredder on the 1980s Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles TV series, War Machine/James Rhodes on the 1990s Iron Man and Spider-Man cartoons, and Sir Bryant on The Legend of Prince Valiant.
The Powerpuff Girls Go CG In The Upcoming Cartoon Network Special
By Joe Hughes
Last week Cartoon Network revealed plans to air a brand new Powerpuff Girls special in January. The special, titled "Powerpuff Girls: Dance Pantsed," in no way involves series creator Craig McCracken. As such, it features a completely reimagined look for Townsville's heroes, as the Blossom, Bubbles and Buttercup get the CG treatment. While the show has a different look, it does reunite the original voice cast, and along for the ride this time is Ringo Starr, debuting a brand new song and giving voice to the "flamboyant mathemetician Fibonacci Sequins," a character with one of the best names I've come across in any show in years.
Get Ready For A New 'Powerpuff Girls' Special On January 20
I've got good news, bad news and strange news. Which do you guys want first?
The good? OK. A new CGI-ish Powerpuff Girls special, titled "Dance Pantsed," will debut on Cartoon Network January 20 at 7:30 p.m. Eastern and Pacific time. The bad news is that show creator Craig McCracken doesn't seem to have anything to do with it. The strange news: It will prominently feature former Beatle Ringo Starr.

The 'Teen Titans Go!' Team Schemes A 'Second Christmas' [Exclusive Clip]
The original 2003-2006 Teen Titans animated series ran for 65 episodes, but for whatever reason, it never got around to a holiday episode (the closest it came was with a story in its tie-in comic book). That all changes tonight on Cartoon Network, though, as the Teen Titans Go! crew hatches a scheme to double up on holiday fun in the new "Second Christmas" episode at 7:30 p.m. ET/PT. Robin, Cyborg, Raven, Beast Boy and Starfire have so much fun this Christmas that it's hard to get back to the humdrum of winter. Inspiration strikes, however, when Starfire's otherworldly naiveté about Earth's holiday seasons inspires her friends to create a Second Christmas — complete with a Second Santa — in a bid to get her to deck the halls for them all over again. Get into the second holiday spirit with new clips — including one exclusive to CA — as well as stills from tonight's episode of Teen Titans Go! after the cut.
The 10 Best Background Easter Eggs In 'Teen Titans Go'
By Chris Sims
There are a lot of things to love about Teen Titans Go, but the single best thing about it is how much there is to see in each episode. Well, no, sorry, that's a lie: The best thing about it is that there are multiple episodes that end with the characters growing old and/or dying, but right after that, it's definitely the show's signature look. Art director Dan Hipp has been a ComicsAlliance favorite for as long as ComicsAlliance has existed, and now, he's hard at work filling up the backgrounds of Teen Titans Go with some truly bizarre pieces of the DC Universe.
This week, we got what might be the single best gag of 'em all, so we're counting down our favorites from the series so far!
Natasha Allegri Talks About Kaboom!'s Upcoming 'Bee And Puppycat' Comic Book And Why She Loves Garfield
By Chris Sims
It's not often that you get a piece of comics news that's completely unsurprising and completely welcome at the same time, but that's exactly what we got this week when Boom! Studios announced that their Kaboom imprint will be publishing a comic book version of Natasha Allegri's Bee and Puppycat. The official announcement about Bee and Puppycat joining its fellow Frederator shows, Adventure Time and Bravest Warriors, even included the phrase "Of course we're doing the comic."
But like I said, it's every bit as welcome as it is expected, so to get a little insight on where Bee and Puppycat is coming from, we asked a few questions to Allegri, who took a moment out of her busy schedule to tell us about her influences, the tone of the show, and her love of Garfield.

California triumphs again at Judgment of Paris re-run
Last night's re-run of the famous Judgment of Paris 1976 California v Bordeaux tasting was, much to general surprise, another walkover for California. Exactly the same Cabernet Sauvignon-based wines were tasted 30 years on. It was thought that perhaps after all this time the California wines might have fallen off their perch and the famous longevity of red bordeaux would put the French wines in the ascendant but this was not the case. Two panels of nine high-profile judges assessed the wines blind, mixed up, simultaneously at Berry Bros in London and at Copia in the Napa Valley. Here's the ranking of all 10 original wines...

VAT to Replace CorpIncTax = Fair Trade, Jobs & Growth
VAT, subtracted from exports and added to imports, will result in less outsourcing and more manufacturing jobs.

The simplest fix to our tax code would be would be to lower the income tax dramatically, lower the corporate tax, and instead raise revenues through a national sales tax, or a value-added tax (VAT).

Bringing Bluegrass Back to Norwich
7/26/2013 (Updated 10:43:49 PM)A blue grass festival brought back to life.
It had been going on for over two decades, the Norwich Bluegrass festival, but it was canceled last year. Danny Stewart had played in a band at the festival in years past and wanted to bring it back to the Chenango County Fair Ground this year.
Starting around Christmas time, Stewart began his planning and fast forward to this weekend, a hundred people are now camping out on-site and many more are expected to come on by to listen to blue grass bands from across the nation.
He say's he's ready to start planning for next years.
"I'm already inspired, even if I lose a bit this year because the simple fact that everybody's walking around thanking me for actually bringing it back. You can see it in their face that they might be local, I say local like within an hour, and its just something that they didn't want to die so lets keep this thing alive you know," said Stewart.
On Saturday, there is a band competition and on Sunday there will be a gospel sing. It is $25 to stop on by for the day.

A week in Vegas with one of my best friends is a great way to cut loose and let the stress of life roll away like a pair of dice on the craps table. A couple of slot jackpots and four 10′s in a hand of Crazy 4 poker makes things go a lot easier, especially if you're losing most of the rest of the time. I wound up in the end down a bit but I still had a really good time.
The big hit of the weekend was the 10′s at Crazy 4 Poker. Years ago I hit 4 aces in a hand of Let it Ride, and I didn't think to take a picture, but this time I made sure I had a fantastic hand immortalized.
While we went there mostly to gamble, you can't play cards for 7 days straight (even if you do stay up almost 48 straight hours twice during that period to give it a good solid try!) so we went and did some other fun stuff. First there was the trip to Hoover Dam. The tour was awesome, and the feeling of the sheer power of the water under your feet when you stand over one of the intake pipes is pretty amazing. Plus the new bridge near the dam is quite the sight to see.
On our way back from the dam I found a little railroad museum, which had some pretty cool stuff including a steam engine with a double boiler.
Our other stop was Red Rock Canyon National Conservation Area. It was pretty awesome looking at what water, wind, and sun can do to the earth over millions of years. What was maybe even cooler was meeting a couple who were cycling through Red Rock Canyon to celebrate their 45th wedding anniversary. That place is no joke to ride, I was impressed by both of them, especially because they were on rented bikes.
Getting back to real life took a couple days but I'm definitely glad to be back to training. Since I last wrote, I went in for a fitting which will be finished Friday night, and I bought a new ISM Prologue saddle. Plus I put some new grip tape on the bars. Pretty stoked for what it's going to look like when it's all done. And the training is going well.

Police services study nearing completion

This gives me a clearer understanding as to why there hasn't been any "increased" patrol, as promised, after I reported ongoing suspicious activity in my neighborhood.
on Jul 27, 2009 at 11:02 am
Why is Danville spending precious money on a study of police services? We can get rid of the Sheriff's contract service and save an immediate 30 percent on law enforcement costs. If that sounds like a no-brainer, it is.
Just look next door at San Ramon - they have their own officers and are saving a fortune.
The "get a consultant" mentality never ceases to frost me. Why don't our elected leaders do the job they were elected to do and MAKE SOME DECISIONS without running with quivering lips to Mother Consultant?

Danish journalist Lars Hedegaard is on trial this week for telling the truth about Islam (kudos to Sooren Kern for a well-researched article, which I've used throughout). I've repeatedly said that truth is now hate speech for wingers on the left, and Hedegaard's case illustrates that in disturbing detail. His "truth speech" about Islam could send him to prison for two years.
Hedegaard is not some yahoo blogger, but a distinguished journalist, president of the Danish Free Press Society and the International Free Press Society. If he loses this trial, they're going to have to take the word "free" out of the names of both organizations, for the simple reason that there is no such thing as freedom of the press under Sharia law and in nations which are stupid enough to believe that Islam is a benign religion.
Hedegaard is on trial for "hate speech" and for "racism," even though Islam is not a race, it's a religion.
He is facing a prison sentence for correctly observing in 2009 that child rape and domestic violence occur at disturbingly high levels in Muslim families. Speaking from the heritage of a Christian worldview, he naturally says that's bad. The thought police have been on him like white on rice since then.
And Hedegaard is not the first Dane to run afoul of the thought police. A Danish politician, Jesper Langbelle, was found guilty last month of hate speech for observing, again correctly, that honor killings and sexual abuse take place in far too many Muslim families.
And get this: under Danish hate speech statutes, truth is no defense. All you need for a conviction is for someone to feel offended - "threatened, insulted or denigrated" to use the language of the statute - whether what you said is God's honest truth or not. Langbelle - a member of the Danish parliament - was given a choice: pay a $1,000 fine or spend 10 days in jail.
Free speech itself is on trial in Europe this week, for one reason: Europe has allowed virtually unrestricted Islamic immigration, and Muslims have brought with them their values: genital mutilation of baby girls, the rape of daughters by their own fathers, treating rape victims as criminals, and honor killings.
Trials similar to Hedegaard's have taken place or are taking place in Austria, Finland, France, Italy and the Netherlands (think Geert Wilders).
A woman by the name of Elisabeth Sabaditsch-Wolff could go to prison for three years in Austria for "incitement of hatred" and "denigrating religious teachings" after a series of seminars she gave in 2009 about the dangers of radical Islam.
Her trial - which just resumed on January 18 - was suspended for two months when the judge discovered that much of her "hate speech" consisted of direct quotes from the Qur'an. Whoops! So she's on trial for publicly repeating what Islam says about itself.
And Sabaditsch-Wolff has some august company, right there in Austria. Susanne Winter, a member of the Austrian parliament, was convicted of a crime for saying that Muhammad would be considered a child molester today since he married a six-year-old girl (whom he deflowered at the age of nine). The truth is that Muhammad should not be "considered" a child molester. He was one, plain and simple.
Winter was also convicted of "incitement" for saying, again truthfully, that Austria is facing an "Islamic immigration tsunami." She got stuck with a $31,000 fine. We now know the price of truth in dollars and cents in the country that spawned Adoph Hitler.
A politician in Finland got stuck with a $450 fine for "incitement against an ethnic group" for saying that Islam is a religion of pedophilia. But of course it is exactly that. Muhammad is the ultimate example for Muslims -- whatever he did, they can do today and until the end of time. If Muhammad was a pedophile, they get to be pedophiles too. That's why we have stories out of Afghanistan about "dancing boys." When you bring Islam into the U.S., you are bringing pedophilia with it.
Once again, this is the horror that is Islam. Under Christianity, pedophilia is a crime. In Islam, it is an imitation of the blessed prophet, peace be upon him.
By the way, the Finnish politician was originally also charged with "breach of the sanctity of religion," essentially a "blasphemy" charge. The prosecutor was so outraged when this charge was dropped that he is appealing to the Finnish Supreme Court to have it reinstated.
A French novelist was dragged into court in 2002. His crime? He said the Qur'an was "badly written." He was fortunate to be acquitted, probably because the Qur'an is in fact badly written.
A Dutch cartoonist was hauled off to jail - the first time in 800 years that anyone has been jailed in the Netherlands for the crime of satire - for taking a poke at the Muslim practice of the genital mutilation of young girls.
Italian author Oriana Fallaci died in 2006, just it time to be spared the fate of a criminal trial in her own country for "defaming Islam." Her crime? Writing that Islam "brings hate instead of love and slavery instead of freedom." Since this again is a statement of truth, then essentially Islam is defaming itself, and she was just reporting it.
Former sex siren Brigitte Bardot, now an animal rights crusader, was convicted of "inciting racial hatred" in 2008 for demanding that animals slaughtered by Muslims be anesthetized first. (Animals - as well as infidels - have to have their throats slit while they are conscious for the meat to be considered halal. And of course the meat is dedicated to Allah in the process.) Bardot isn't slowing down apparently, and is still out there warning her fellow Frenchmen that they are eating halal meat (which is, of course, meat sacrificed to the demon-god Allah) even though nobody is telling them about it.
We are dealing right now in the U.S. with two honor killing trials. A father in Arizona ran over his daughter with his Jeep Cherokee for becoming too Westernized, and a husband in New York is on trial for sawing the head off his wife for planning to divorce him.
Now those kinds of things can, of course, occur even in a Christian culture. Here is the difference: Christianity condemns what Islam exalts. Sawing the head off your wife makes you a good Muslim, but it makes you a bad Christian. Running your daughter down with your SUV makes you a good Muslim, but it makes you a bad Christian.
Shooting a roomful of your fellow soldiers after shouting "Allahu Akhbar" makes you a good Muslim, but to do the same thing in the name of Jesus makes you a bad Christian.
Flying planes into buildings, killing thousands of innocents, makes you a good Muslim, but it makes you a bad Christian.
Evil people will do evil things, but when you have a religion that says such evil things are good, a religion which says its god, its prophet and its holy book command Allah's followers to carry out such atrocities, you are dealing with two religions that are as different as light is from darkness.
Do we really want to import people to our shores who believe that killing our daughters because they got raped is a good thing?
The Muslim population in the United States is expected to double by mid-century. They are out-breeding the Christian population in America, and demographics alone - let alone more foolish immigration - bodes ill for our future.
By the middle of this decade, more people in England will be attending mosque on Fridays than will be in church on Sundays. Think about that for a moment. It ought to send a chill down the back of your spine to the bottom of your feet, especially if you live there.
To Hedegaard's everlasting credit, he is not about to back down. He says, "We have made no bones about the fact that we consider Islam -- as it is presently being preached by all influential clerics and ideologues -- a deadly threat to all our freedoms, among which are freedom of expression. For this consistent stance we have been vilified and called every name in the book, but we will not budge." May his tribe increase.
Hedegaard won't budge, and neither will I. Islam is an evil and wicked religion, and unworthy of a Christian nation.
We will have to choose in America between Islam and a free press, because we can't have both. We will have to choose in America between Islam and freedom of religion, because we can't have both. We will have to choose in America between Islam and the truth, because we can't have both.
Bottom line: the less Islam there is in the United States, the better.

Reporting from Las Vegas — President Obama wrapped up a two-day sales pitch for his administration's economic policies by pushing for a $5-billion expansion of tax credits for clean-energy manufacturing, an industry that recession-worn Nevada has clung to as a potential lifeline.
The proposal was part of a swing through Missouri and Nevada in which the president played campaigner in chief for a pair of struggling Senate candidates and a tough defender of his party's attempts to steady the still-flailing economy. Convincing voters that the economic stimulus package, for instance, helped limit the recession's blow is essential for Democrats to hold onto their majorities in Congress.

The Santa Clara County Sheriff's dive teams spent the week searching for signs of missing Morgan Hill teen but were unable to get to two of the reservoirs they planned on searching, according to Sgt. Jose Cardoza of the Sheriff's Office.
They will resume searches at these two bodies of water early in the week of May 7.
"In the beginning of the week, the teams searched Parkway Lakes, Anderson and Coyote reservoirs," Cardoza said. "They were unable to get to Almaden and Guadalupe reservoirs, so they'll be resuming with them early next week."
Cardoza said that divers were deployed after side scan sonar picked up "areas of concern" in the three waterways that were searched, but nothing related to LaMar's disappearance was discovered.
After waterway searches are completed next week, Cardoza said investigators will reconvene and determine how to proceed with searches, including deciding where to search next.
LaMar, 15, has been missing since March 16 and . Her family is offering to the first person with information that leads to her safe return.
led by the will take place over the weekend.
Those interested in volunteering can come to Burnett Elementary School Saturday, May 5, between 8 a.m. and 1 p.m. to register. Searches will continue until 6 p.m. Call 408-201-6364 or visit the Find Sierra LaMar website for more information.
