On Escaping Westboro: 'People Can Change'
BY Sunnivie Brydum
April 04 2013 3:00 AM ET
After spending most of her teenage years as a member of the Westboro Baptist Church, Lauren Drain was kicked out of the antigay church for talking to a boy. At least, that's how Drain tells the story in her revealing new memoir, Banished: Surviving My Years in the Westboro Baptist Church. Drain's father, Steve, led the charge to excommunicate his oldest daughter, despite the fact that he had uprooted his family from Florida seven years earlier, in part, he said, to try to save her soul. Drain was kicked out shortly before her 22nd birthday. Her father, mother, and two younger sisters are still embedded in the church, living in a house on the Westboro compound in Topeka, Kan.
Today, the 27-year-old Drain lives with her fiancé in Connecticut, where she is a registered nurse. In Banished, Drain says she "will never be a political activist for gay rights," but she tells The Advocate that she posed for the pro-equality No H8 campaign earlier this year to show "that people can change. People can be forgiven and communities aren't going to hold those judgments against you forever."
She says she was "ecstatic" upon hearing the news that her former friends Megan and Grace Phelps-Roper — granddaughters of the church's infamous founding pastor, Fred Phelps — had abandoned the cult in February and apologized for their hateful words. She says she's been in regular contact with both women since they left Westboro.
Drain knows she has some sins to atone for as well. "I feel like I owe people an apology," says Drain. "I partly wrote my book to apologize to people that I've hurt.… I wanted people to know that I judge you based on your character. I'm not going to judge you based on who you're attracted to."
Drain, who still identifies as a Christian, says her feelings about LGBT people have softened. She now uses the word "gay," avoiding terminology preferred by Westboro, like "fag" and "homosexual." But when asked if she believes people are born gay, Drain is taken aback. Calling the query "an interesting question," Drain defers to her gay friends.
"They tell me they don't think it's a choice, so I guess I'll go based upon what people feel," says Drain. "I do know that I have changed. I don't judge or condemn people like I did before."

Greetings, my fellow port swillers!
Ol' Robbo had one of his patented bizarro dreams last evening, doubtless from a combination of giving up the grape for Lent, thinking about obscure Augustine history references (see below) and being in the midst of reading Chesterton's Manalive when he dozed off.
Anyhoo, I found myself at a lavish costume party held in some great ball room. There was no particular theme that I remember, but rather a large assortment of historickal figures. I, myself, was made up as Julius Caesar and wore an enormously elaborate tunic and toga. I especially remember how vivid the red and gold were.
As I say, there was no particular theme to the party. Nonetheless, I found myself trying to chat up a young lady dressed as a Roman matron. (I'm inclined to think she was a very young Jessie Royce Landis (which see) because I happened to watch "To Catch A Thief" not long ago and have always liked her style of lazy humor.) Every time I got going, however, some other fellah in Roman attire would try to horn in on us. These weren't just random people, either, but celebs of the old school. I distinctly recall both Peter O'Toole and Charles Laughton among my rivals.
Somehow or other, it got to the point where we decided that the question of who was going to get the girl would be put to the vote of the Roman Senate. (By this point, the theme obviously had declared itself.) I found myself on the edge of a stage, listening to one of the other suitors arguing his claim and making a hash of it. Remembering Who I Was and determining that I could do a much better job than that, when my turn was called I strode out to center stage and, in a surprisingly clear and deep voice, made the following speech (as near as I can remember):
"Senators of Rome! I am a plain man and therefore will speak plainly to you! I deserve the girl above all these others here! Who among them has brought to Rome so much wealth and honor as have I? Who has been so successful in foreign wars? Who has ensured such domestic peace? None of them, I say! Therefore, as reward to me and as encouragement to others to emulate my efforts, give her to me!"
And then, as they say, I woke up. Dunno who won the vote.
After pausing here to let the feminist heads finish up exploding (All done? Good.), I will simply say I have no idea what any of this means. 'Twas a good dream, though.
UPDATE: Google reminds me that yesterday was the "International Day of the Woman", whatever that may be. Derp!
Ol' Robbo had not seen this video before, I think. It made me laugh and laugh:
Way, waaaaaay back in the fierce young days of the Llamas, when every blog pronouncement seemed worth fighting about, I recall getting into a kerfluffle with some camelidophiles over my opinion that German is an ugly language, full of gutturals, rocky with consonants and ridiculous in some of its excessive compounding. I stated something to the effect that it reminded me of nothing but dark fir woods; cold, dismal swamps; and howling hordes of barbarians swarming out to fall on Varus and his Legions in the Teutoburg Forest and cut them to ribbons.
I still feel that way, but here's a defense by a native-speaker, which I include out of fairness since it was from this article that I lifted the video. Enjoy!
A glass of wine with Arts & Letters Daily.
UPDATE: After pondering whilst shoveling off the patio, it occurs to me that maybe I have seen this video before. Still funny. Also, I'm willing to bet all of those so-called Europeans are actually 'Muricans. If that Johnny is a genuine Brit, then so am I.
Recently ol' Robbo got his hands on Peej O'Rourke's latest book, The Baby Boom: How It Got That Way, and It Wasn't My Fault and I'll Never Do It Again. As the title suggests, this is O'Rourke's take on his own generation, its origins, rise and impact on history, which he achieves through a mixture of personal recollection and larger picture analysis.
I've been kinda down on Peej's writing ever since he hit his peak in the 90′s with All The Trouble In The World and Eat the Rich. To me, his style has gradually gotten somewhat, well, staler and a bit crusty. With that said, this is a very well-written book. Even though Peej is an essayist by trade and I believe this is his first attempt at a genuine book-length narrative, nonetheless it holds up very well throughout. (One tool he uses that particularly impressed me is a series of descriptive snippets of his own personal history – starting from boyhood – that he gradually weaves together into metaphoric themes as he progresses.) Also, his observations are as sharp and funny as any others he has made.
Here's the thing. Peej spends the majority of the book laying down the character traits of the Boomers – spoiled, selfish, perpetually adolescent, hedonistic. He also describes what a wild ride it's been unleashing such traits on the society built up by its stick-in-the-mud predecessors. All this I expected. After all, so long as somebody is working hard to keep the pantry and cellar stocked, sure, you can have one hell of a party. But, going by the book's title, I also expected a climactic denunciation and something akin to an apology. After all, Peej has been a Professional Conservative for 40-odd years, specializing in sniping at the foibles of his generation, and I thought the rest of the book was going to be a set up for pulling Peter Pan over his knee and whaling on him with a belt-buckle.
But in the last chapter, entitled "Big Damn Messy Bundle of Joy"? Where he should have looked around and noticed just how badly his generation has trashed the place and how hard – if not impossible – it's going to be for those of us following to clean it up? He celebrates! While he rightly lauds the creative energies unleashed by the Boomer revolution, he conveniently forgets that for every Bill Gates and Steve Jobs that it might have made there are legions of my hippy Uncle Dave, who last I heard of him 20-odd years ago was tending bar part-time and crashing on a buddy's sofa. He actually praises the "liberation" of the sexual revolution, which, so far as I can see, has only brought about the destruction of the family unit, plummeting birth-rates, the commodification and dehumanization of sexuality and wide-spread misery. He completely ignores the fact that the Boomers' looting of the coffers will leave those succeeding them no other use for all those worthless I.O.U.'s than to wipe their bottoms (which won't even matter because they'll have nothing to eat). And while he is correct that envy of Western prosperity was a major cause of the Soviet Union's cracking and faltering, his prediction that the spread of Boomer "values" throughout the Third World will lead to the collapse of all those myriad tin-pot dictators and medieval theocracies strikes me as, well, naive.
Maybe I'm reading his conclusion wrong. Maybe he's trying to be snarky and sarcastic and it's simply sailing past me. Maybe he's only aping his generation's zeitgeist while not actually sharing it himself. Feel free to share your own takes here. But his conclusion seems to me to come awful close to, "Screw you, Jack! I got mine!" And that leaves a nasty taste in my mouth.
Damned hippies.
Greetings, my fellow port swillers!
Prompted by catching AMC's umpteenth re-showing of Braveheart t'other evening, ol' Robbo started to write a post on the predictability of Mel Gibson movie characters, but after re-reading the draft, I decided that my insights were so bloody obvious that they would insult the collective intelligence of my fellow port swillers. So consider yourselves spared.
In keeping with the theme of big-budget 90′s historickal beefcake films, however, I will note instead that, following up on my recent re-enjoyment of Francis Parkman's history of French and British colonial history in North America, I've chucked Last of the Mohicans into the ol' Netflix queue again.
Friends of the decanter might be puzzled by this. After all, said movie makes a complete hash of James Fenimore Cooper's novel – the wrong couples get together, the wrong characters live and die and the movie's Major Hayward is teleported in from the Bearded-Spock Universe – and we all know what Robbo thinks of movie bowderlizations of cherished books. (Peter Jackson, for example, is going straight to hell.)
So how can I watch this one? The key word here is "cherished". I've never understood why Cooper enjoys the literary status that he does, or anyway did back in the day when more young people still knew how to read. His books, at least to me, are long-winded, pompous, condescending and heavy-handed. And, as Mark Twain famously noted, as a limousine liberal of his day, Cooper not only was a poor writer, he also didn't know what the hell he was talking about when it came to stories of the wild. Frankly, I struggled through LOTM and I positively gave up on his Wing and Wing after a couple chapters despite the fact that it was a sea-story. So it simply doesn't bother me much that his tale of Natty Bumppo is so thoroughly mangled by the film.
Well, there is one part that bothers me: Col. Munro, the real one, was not killed in the massacre at Fort William-Henry by Magwa or anyone else. He actually died some months later, apparently from exhaustion. And I recall that the movie downplays the fact that many of those murdered and carried away by Montcalm's Indian allies were women and children.
Nonetheless, the movie is gorgeously filmed (although I believe at least some of the scenes were shot in the Blue Ridge near Roanoke instead of the Adirondacks ), there's plenty of action and a lot of the period (circa 1757) detail is pretty good. And for some reason, Robbo's beloved Nationals have adopted its score as the "theme" musick at the beginning of their home games. Kinda gets to you after a while.
Oh, may I also note here in reference to the pic above that I absolutely love N.C. Wyeth's work? Sure, the man was but an illustrator, but he carried illustration to a sublime level. I'd take ol' N.C. over a legion of "abstract" artistes any day.
**Spot the reference.
Greetings, my fellow port swillers!
You will no doubt be asking yourselves about the print posted above? Well, it's by James Gillray – one of ol' Robbo's favorite late 18th Century British politickal cartoonists – and is a 1795 piece titled "The Death of the Great Wolf". It is a parody of Benjamin West's famous 1770 painting, "The Death of General Wolfe", another great favorite of mine, given my (well-known to regular friends of teh decanter) fondness for colonial American history, and has to do with a bit of Gubmint over-reach in re the (then) Tory effort to crack down on seditious speech in the face of the French Revolution.
Anyhoo, I won't go into all the details of Gillray's parody – go here for a brief description – but I will point out that the glasses-wearing fellah on the immediate left of the expiring Billy Pitt's "Wolfe" is a caricature of Edmund Burke.
I bring all this up – well, besides using it as a pretense for posting a Gillray print – because I have started in on Yuval Levin's latest books, The Great Debate: Edmund Burke, Thomas Paine, and the Birth of Right and Left. Levin's thesis, very broadly put, is that the differences in the philosophies of the relationship between governors and governed between Burke and Paine, specifically regarding the French Revolution, have framed the same debate between classical liberalism and progressivist radicalism that has haunted American politicks ever since, and which seems, at least IMHO, to be coming to something of a head these days. I don't often read politickal books simply because I loathe politicks as a whole (what the great Peej O'Rourke once described as the business of achieving status and power without merit), but somehow I thought this one was worth a dekko.
We shall see. As I say, I've just started. So long as Levin reaches the conclusion that Burke was an incremental realist who, with a genuine desire for gradual societal improvement, also took into account both empirical historic evidence and an understanding of Man's inherent fallibility; and also that Paine was a rabble-rousing Utopian moron who believed in a unicorn in every garage and free, rainbow-flavored Skittles for all, and who didn't care how much blood it took to get to this vision; well, then we're good.
As long as I'm on the subject, allow me to throw out this: While I have a great many Whig sympathies about societal improvements, I utterly reject what is called the Whig theory of history. Per Wiki:
Whig history (or Whig historiography) is the approach to historiography which presents the past as an inevitable progression towards ever greater liberty and enlightenment, culminating in modern forms of liberal democracy and constitutional monarchy. In general, Whig historians emphasize the rise of constitutional government, personal freedoms, and scientific progress. The term is often applied generally (and pejoratively) to histories that present the past as the inexorable march of progress towards enlightenment. The term is also used extensively in the history of science for historiography which focuses on the successful chain of theories and experiments that led to present-day science, while ignoring failed theories and dead ends.[1] It is claimed that Whig history has many similarities with the Marxist-Leninist theory of history, which presupposes that humanity is moving through historical stages to the classless, egalitarian society to which communism aspires.
Whig history is a form of liberalism, putting its faith in the power of human reason to reshape society for the better, regardless of past history and tradition. It proposes the inevitable progress of mankind. Its opposite is conservative history or "Toryism." The English historian A. J. P. Taylor commented, "Toryism rests on doubt in human nature; it distrusts improvement, clings to traditional institutions, prefers the past to the future."
A.J.P. Taylor was a Commie bastard. Suff on his "interpretation". More generally, however, I take this whole "inevitable progression" reasoning as a variation on the Unicorns n' Skittles thing I mention above and condemned as a load of crap. You're damned right, Mister A.J.P. Taylor, that I have doubts in human nature. History bears me out, I think. And as I repeatedly tell anyone who will listen (an increasingly shrinking audience, I'll allow), there is nothing, nothing that guarantees our current level of prosperity and order. See, e.g., Fourth Century Rome.
So I suppose that I am either a conservative Burkean or else an enlightened Tory. Which is why I use a portrait of Billy Pitt as my, how do you kids say it, avaterz when commenting on teh toobs.
Idly flipping through the latest PBS magazine today, ol' Robbo noticed that "American Masters" will be airing a tribute to Pete Seeger, who died last month, in a couple weeks. The plug for the program includes this language:
"Largely misunderstood by his critics, including the U.S. government, for his views on peace, civil rights and ecology, Seeger went from the top of the hit parade to the top of the blacklist – banned from commercial television for more than 17 years."
"Misunderstood"? The man was a goddam Stalinist. And the HUAC people didn't know the half of it. Yeah, I know Seeger apologized later on, but his apology was of the "Whoopsie!" variety. 20 to 40 million of Uncle Joe's "whoopsies" could not be reached for comment. Also, I gather that while Seeger came to realize Stalin was, in fact, a Bad Man, he never understood that any system of collectivist utopianism is per se evil.
The column finishes thusly:
"His inspiring story is told by everyone from Bob Dylan to the Dixie Chicks and through a remarkable historical archive - a history that Seeger himself helped create."
A.) Wow, what a cross-section of perspective, and B.) I'll bet he did.
This sort of thing drives me nuts. One strategic point the collectivist/progressivist/New World Order types have grasped is that to control the narrative is to control the high ground of both history and the future. You will notice that these people have infiltrated, and now dominate, the Academy, the Press and the Entertainment Industry, from which all modern cultural (and modern politickal) sensibilities flow.
What we do to fight back, I'm not sure that I know. For myself, I suppose all I can do is chip away in blog posts read, probably, by no more than fifteen or twenty people. Well, every little, right?
Now if you all will excuse me, it seems somebody is knocking at the door. Strange, this time of night……..
In honor of Washington's birthday, as is my usual wont I post my favorite portrait of him by Charles Wilson Peale (1772) in his uniform as Colonel of the First Virginia colonial troops:
As I'm sure I've written before, I have read that the background in this portrait is said to be Jumonville Glen (about 30 miles southeast of what is now Pittsburgh) where, on May 28, 1754, young Lt. Col. Washington, at the head of a force of colonial militia and Indians, got the drop on a band of Frenchmen led by Joseph Coulon de Villiers, Sieur de Jumonville, sent by Montreal to clear British encroachers from the Ohio country, and killed or captured the entire French force, thereby opening the conflict now known (at least by anyone who's ever actually heard of it) as the French and Indian War. Despite the fact that Washington himself had to surrender to another French force at Fort Necessity a few days later, I believe he remained pretty darned proud of his initial success.
Greetings, my fellow port swillers!
Amidst all the fresh clashes and crises boiling up around the world – and thank Heaven we have Top Men working on them (Top. Men.) - Ol' Robbo noticed a small nooz article this week about David Bowie creating a minor kerfluffle by including some anti-Scottish independence rhetoric in a speech at some musick awards to-do.
I've been hearing mutterings about Scottish independence for ages but hadn't realized that it's got as far as the scheduling of a referendum later on this year. I suppose I ought to read up on things in order to better understand what exactly the Scots mean by "independence" here, because at first glance the idea appears…what's the word?…insane.
I'm assuming that their own parliament in Edinburg is a given. But would an independent Scotland still be part of the Commonwealth under the Queen? Somebody mentioned that this might be an excellent opportunity for the revival of the House of Stuart. (Okay, to me that would almost make the effort worth it.)
Would an independent Scotland be responsible for the provision of her own armed forces? A revival of the Highland regiments, for example? Again, that might make it worthwhile.
But here's the thing that I don't quite get and is at the bottom of my off-the-cuff assessment. Scotland's entire economy, from what I can see, is dependent on sheep, tourism and great big fat subsidy checks from London. Without funding from the South, she's really a pretty poor place. And the people have been on the dole for so long that I don't get the sense there's a pent-up spirit of rah-rah entrepreneurship just champing at the bit to be turned loose. How does she propose to, you know, feed herself if she makes a clean break with the rest of G.B?
I'm guessing, however, that the pro-independence types don't actually want that kind of independence, and that the movement is really more of the Get Out Of My Life, But First Could You Drive Me & Cheryl To The Mall variety.
Greetings, my fellow port swillers!
You may call ol' Robbo "old school" – I'm sure you already call me much worse – but I for one prefer the celebration of Washington's birthday to this generic chief executive tribute stuff. Old George surely merits his country's eternal memory and thanks. Fellahs like Buchanan, Johnson, Wilson, Carter and, ah, others we need not name? Not so much. So for me, today really isn't much other than a day off work.
♦ Robbo spent most of yesterday afternoon in his favorite chair overlooking the bird feeders, reading his Parkman and staring out the window from time to time. In the course of a couple hours, two different hawks blitzed the feeders. The youngest gel and I identified one of them as a Cooper's Hawk. The other was immature. As I discovered from my Peterson's Field Guide (always at hand), almost all immature hawks look exactly like each other. The only way to even guess at the subspecies is by the bird's size. This one was pretty durn big.
Neither one was successful, by the way. The immature bird in particular spent several minutes perched on the roof of the porch looking extremely indignant.
♦ Speaking of which, I may have mentioned before the youngest's interest in ornithology? She loves to show off her knowledge about comparative features – crests and caps, rounded vs. squared tails and the like. She recently asked me what schools had good ornithology programs.
"Well, there's Cornell," I said.
"Where's that?" she asked.
"Upstate New York. It gets very, very cold."
"Ummmm, I don't think I'd like that. Anywhere else?"
Beats me. I suppose I ought to look into it.
♦ Another dose of snow/sleet is on the way tonight and tomorrow morning, although it looks like it's just going to be a nuisance this time around. Then the temperatures are supposed to get up into the 60′s by the end of the week. I may say that I've had plenty of wintah, thank you very much. Moar warm, please!
I say this now so that, when I am being slowly parboiled over the summah and complaining bitterly about it, I can dig up this post and remind myself of what I will be missing.
Greetings, my fellow port swillers!
By now I'm sure that all of you know of the death, announced this morning, of Shirley Temple Black at the age of 85.
From all I have ever heard, a remarkable woman. Childhood stardom didn't warp or ruin her. Instead, after giving up movie making in her early 20′s, she turned to teh world of international diplomacy, where, from what I gather, she was quite the success. (And as an aside, I knew she was Ambassador to Ghana. For some reason, I never knew she was also Ambassador to the old Czechoslovakia.) Alas, I understand from some things I've seen round the innertoobs that she is getting a thorough trashing on certain moonbat lefty sites today because she was a solid Republican. But these are the times in which we live, I'm afraid.
At any rate, most of the MSM coverage of her passing focuses, not unnaturally, on her early films. Now, no disrespect intended, but frankly, I couldn't stand them myself. The adowable widdle gerrewl character tends to awake the sleeping fiend in ol' Robbo.
But that's just me.
Actually, what her death really got me thinking about was a memory of my own misspent yoot.
You see, back when ol' Robbo was a kid, there were – at least where I lived – only the three network broadcast stations, plus PBS. And on Saturday afternoons, when the networks weren't supplying some sports event feed or the like, the local stations used to fill in the time with programming such as, well, Shirley Temple movies. As I say, I didn't care for those, even though I watched several of them. But I also was introduced to a lot of other classic fare: Abbott & Costello; Laurel & Hardy; the Marx Brothers; Charlie Chaplin; Inspector Clouseau; Tarzan; Fred and Ginger; cheesy SciFy stuff like Planet of the Apes, Barbarella, Fantastic Voyage and 1 Million B.C.; epics like Ben Hur; westerns and war movies of course; and dopey stuff like The Cannonball Run. And I swear I once saw a movie about brother and sister ancient Egyptian royals who somehow became king and queen of some sub-Saharan tribe. Oh, and as filler, they also used to run the old "Our Gang" shorts and the like. (This, obviously, is not an exclusive list, BTW.)
Good times. Good times.
The majority of the films that I saw on these lazy Saturdays had been made back in the day, some of them preceding not only my own birth, but even those of my parents. In this exposure, then, there was a sort of cultural continuity, a handing down of shared experiences and values, a canon of popular film culchah, if you will.
Given the explosion in media outlets and tailored, diffuse oh hell, Balkanized programming that has occurred in the past, oh, twenty years or so, is such a phenomenon even remotely likely with today's yoots?
I very sincerely doubt it. And somehow, I think this is not a good thing.

90s History & Facts
As we get farther and farther from the days of the 90s where big hair was cool, bright colored clothes and punk music we see more and more of our kids sporting these outfits for Halloween or other events. So what do you do when your teen comes home and says they are having a school dance as the 90s as their main theme and they are wanting parents who grew up during that stage to come in and help with the d�cor, and to help get the facts straight. Sure you want to be involved, that was only 20 years ago, and you remember wearing your hair tall with tons of aerosol hair spray to help, listening to loud music, and MC hammer was todays Nelly. There are so many great moments in history that are intertwined with the 90s. Great moments in history such as the Berlin wall coming down, and Busch was president of the United States. Most people are amazed at the history behind many of the shows and music from the present and past. Like others before them the times of past and the recordings are often as interesting now as they were many years ago. For this reason, fans of the show have held strong and their popularity has continued to grow. So when you go in and help planning the party, suggest using some of the great 90s music, as an accompaniment to a slide show that can be displayed on one wall with pictures of all of the great moments in history, specifically the 90s.

Affirmative Action Under Scrutiny Again
Supreme Court to weigh Michigan ban on preferences in admissions, hiring.
|2 Comments
After dodging a bullet last term, supporters of affirmative action face another test at the U.S. Supreme Court on October 15 in a case that could launch a new state-by-state effort to eliminate programs that boost minority access to public universities and government contracts.
The case is Schuette v. Coalition to Defend Affirmative Action, which asks the court to reinstate a 2006 ballot initiative called Proposal 2 that amended Michigan's constitution to ban "preferential treatment" based on race, gender or ethnicity in state education, employment or contracting.
If, as many predict, the Supreme Court resurrects the Michigan measure, even its opponents think other states will line up to follow suit, snuffing out affirmative action in many parts of the country.
"That's a real fear," said Mark Rosenbaum of the American Civil Liberties Union of Southern California, who will argue against the ballot measure October 15. "If the law is upheld, the door will be open for other states to follow what Michigan and California have done." California's Proposition 209, passed in 1996, is almost identical to the Michigan amendment passed 10 years later. Washington state has also passed a similar initiative. In other states where the electorate as a whole is more conservative than the leaders of their state universities who create affirmative action programs, similar bans could easily pass.
With a Supreme Court showing increasing skepticism toward affirmative action, supporters' best hope might be a 4-4 tie, which would leave in place the decision by the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit that found Michigan's law unconstitutional. Justice Elena Kagan has recused herself, presumably because she was involved in the long-running case as solicitor general before she joined the court. Current Solicitor General Donald Verrilli Jr. did not file a brief in the case.
Rosenbaum will advance a theory that he thinks should convince the justices that what Michigan voters did by a 58 percent to 42 percent majority harms equality rather than advancing it. Rosenbaum, who teaches at the University of Michigan Law School, says minority admissions in Michigan state schools have dropped significantly since the initiative passed.
By making affirmative action off limits in the state's constitution, Rosenbaum argues, Michigan has made it much harder for those who think they would bring diversity to the state university to make their case politically than, say, someone who wants to use parental alumni status to gain an edge in admissions.
For the diversity candidate to change the process would entail mounting a campaign to amend the state constitution again, Rosenbaum said, while the legacy candidate could just press for change through the Board of Regents or university officials.
That's not a far-fetched argument, say those who want to see the Michigan initiative struck down. The court has a fairly short line of precedents that prohibits altering the structure of government in ways that make it harder for minorities to seek political gain.
The leading case is a 1969 decision Hunter v. Erickson, which struck down an amendment to the city charter of Akron, Ohio, that forced any proposed changes to fair housing laws to be put to the voters for approval. The measure placed "special burdens on racial and religious minorities within the governmental process by making it more difficult for them to secure legislation on their behalf," the court ruled.
The so-called "political restructuring" doctrine applies to the Michigan initiative too, says Harvard Law School professor Laurence Tribe, who is part of the legal team attacking Proposal 2. "No state should be permitted to relegate constitutionally permissible forms of affirmative action that take account of race to separate and unequal status, fencing the choice to opt for such action out of the normal political process," Tribe said in an interview.
The doctrine is deeply rooted in history, adds University of Akron School of Law professor Wilson Huhn, who wrote a brief in the case. Before the Civil War, he said, numerous states amended their constitutions to make it impossible to ban or limit slavery, ultimately leading to passage of the Fourteenth Amendment to overcome those barriers.
The Sixth Circuit adopted the restructuring doctrine in striking down the ballot initiative, prompting Michigan Attorney General Bill Schuette to appeal to the high court. "Nothing in the Constitution bars the people of Michigan from making that choice," he argues in his brief.
The doctrine cited by the opponents of the constitutional amendment, Schuette said, has always been used against laws that place obstacles in the way of equal treatment. The Michigan initiative, on the other hand, requires equal treatment.

DecadenceNew York Times bestselling author Eric Jerome Dickey returns to the life of Nia Simone Bijou (of Pleasure fame) as she embarks on a quest to enhance her artistic gifts through heightened sensory experience, Hollywood-style. Four years have passed since the events of Pleasure, and Nia's success as a writer has grown, bringing her from Atlanta to Los Angeles. But she remains on a quest to quiet her inner storm, to draw on her well of emotions and explore them fully before leaving this season of her life and moving on to what could be the next stage: marriage and motherhood. Drawn to an exclusive pleasure palace, where patrons try on roles as they actively shun their respective realities, Nia's ability to balance truth and fantasy becomes increasingly blurred. What has happened to the compartments she has so carefully created for the different aspects of her life? Will her relationship with the mysterious, often unavailable Prada survive the countless temptations? Will her successful literary career be given over to impulse indulgence? Does decadence know any bounds? When Nia's past comes back to mingle with her present, and when her staid public persona clashes with her fantasy life of decadence, readers will be stunned by the outcome. Eric Jerome Dickey's newest tale of excess�and its sky-high costs�is a thrilling portrait of a glittering world. |

"These are very classic and chic and will look nice on stationery or packages. They are a bit smaller than I expected but the dimensions are given so it was just my perception that was off there. They are nice quality, not too thick, but that's to be expected with the great price."
"The colors were an exact match with the colors for the theme. I used them for tags on baby shower favor bags. Not much customization could be done, but it was great the way it already was!"
"These stickers turned out excellent. They looked just like they did on the site, no color changing. They are high quality and professionally packaged. Thanks very much, Tiny Prints!"
"Stickers are super cute! I've been using Tiny Prints for many years now and they never disappoint. I got it super quick and even a Thank you card from Troy. :)"
"I LOVE this gift tag. Finally, a cute tag that has the "From" format. I have purchased the "Name only" gift tags in the past and I do love those as well, but sometimes people don't realize that the gift tag is indicating that the gift enclosed is from the person's whose name appears on the gift tag (some people think the gift is TO the person on the gift tag). I know this all sounds confusing, but to those of you who can relate I am sure you understand. This is a very cute design and a fun option for a family gift tag!"

#Bucks #InjuryUpdate PF-C Ekpe Udoh (Knee) Questionable for Today's Game.
http://behindthebuckpass.com/2014/02...eturn-tuesday/All-Star Weekend wrapped up Sunday evening with the Eastern Conference edging the West 163-155 in the highest scoring All-Star Game in league history. The Bucks had no stake in the game, failing to produce an All-Star for the tenth straight season, and the team's brief, albeit welcomed, four-day break came to an end with Monday's practice at the Cousins Center.
Thirty games remain on the schedule for the 9-43 Bucks, holders of the NBA's worst record. Given the team is yet to win back-to-back games this season, Milwaukee doesn't appear poised for much of a second-half surge, particularly without the services of Larry Sanders for at least the next six weeks. Sanders underwent surgery last week to repair a fractured orbital bone and could conceivably miss the rest of the season.
The Bucks do, however, expect both John Henson and Caron Butler to return to the lineup Tuesday against Orlando. Butler missed four games with a sprained ankle, while Henson missed last Wednesday's game with an ankle issue. Also expected to return in the near future is shooting guard O.J. Mayo, who's sat out the last 10 games with an illness and subsequent conditioning issues. Mayo is considered questionable Tuesday.
Without Henson, coach Larry Drew will continue to turn to Zaza Pachulia and John Henson as his primary options at center. Drew said Pachulia will remain in the starting line up – as will guard Nate Wolters – while Henson will likely slide over to play the five in certain situations. Miroslav Raduljica also figures to see an uptick in minutes, though he played just 17 total over the last two games without Sanders.
It remains to be seen how this Milwaukee roster will look after the Feb. 20 trade deadline has passed, as nearly the entire roster is rumored to be available. Though the Bucks are devoid of any overly tantalizing trade chips, it would not be a surprise if names like Gary Neal, Ersan Ilyasova, Luke Ridnour or Mayo find new homes by the end of the week.
Is this the game that we FINALLY get win #10?!

NEWS: Saatchis picks up Dr Pepper revamp
By CAROLINE MARSHALL, campaignlive.co.uk, Friday, 24 November 1995 12:00AM
Coca-Cola Schweppes Beverages has awarded the world's fourth largest non-cola, soft-drink brand, Dr Pepper, to Saatchi and Saatchi.
Coca-Cola Schweppes Beverages has awarded the world's fourth largest
non-cola, soft-drink brand, Dr Pepper, to Saatchi and Saatchi.
The agency is understood to have secured the business in secret and,
sources say, has been preparing to tackle the task of replicating the
brand's overseas success in the UK. It is understood that media will be
handled by Zenith, Saatchis' sister company.
Plans in the pipeline for Dr Pepper next year include TV advertising -
which is likely to break in early summer - plus media-supported
promotions and a massive sampling campaign.
The combined work is thought to carry a budget of up to pounds 8
million, compared with a 1995 marketing spend of pounds 500,000, which
went into a series of on-pack and trade promotions.
Kevin White, commercial director at CCSB, would not confirm details of
the Saatchi win, but said: 'We have already been working with an agency
for some time. We are not launching a pitch for Dr Pepper.'
Tamara Ingram, joint managing director at Saatchis, would not comment on
the win, which apparently vindicates the agency's decision to
concentrate on winning more business from existing clients, rather than
chasing new clients.
The win shows Charlotte Street's growing relationship with CCSB, for
which it already handles the Sunkist and Oasis soft-drink brands.
Saatchis will be charged with tackling aggressive competitors such as
Irn-Bru, Vimto, Tango and Tizer. Dr Pepper, which claims to contain no
less than 23 fruit flavours, now sells about ten million ready-to-drink
litres in the UK, accounting for an estimated share of less than 0.5 per
cent of the carbonated soft-drinks market.
White added: 'Our ambition is to create a brand that the ten- to 15-
year-old age group will adopt as its own.
By increasing investment we will create an understanding of the brand
which has not been communicated efficiently to the UK marketplace to
At the same time, CCSB has wrested marketing and distribution control of
the brand from Food Brokers, which has distributed Dr Pepper since the
drink entered the British market in 1982.

3. He has no future on this team next year (Kronwall, E, Quincey, Kindl, Cola, Smith, DeKeyser, Lashoff)
4. There are teams reportedly still interested in picking up a defenseman. (AFAIK, San Jose, NYR, Toronto, and Boston)
I'd like to hear some sound, convincing logic so as to keep myself from losing my cool if he isn't traded in the next 24 hours.
Just to play Devil's Advocate here:
1) We don't know how long CC will be in the lineup, if he gets hurt we'll have to go with 4 inexperienced rookies in the lineup until Quincey is back.
2) Quincey is still hurt they say 2-3 weeks but who knows, somebody else could get hurt, they may want a veteran,calming presence on the blueline
3) White is going to be staying here we're shopping Kindl/Quincey/Smith instead
4) Depth is great to have and depth wins championships. Let's pretend that we didn't have all of our defensive depth earlier this year. We'd have had Almqvist in the lineup.
5) Nobody is willing to give up a 2nd for White.
For me I'd rather we hold onto White if nobody is offering us at least a 2nd, he's a serviceable guy and hasn't played too badly recently. He gives us depth on the backend if injuries hit and we know we can up his minutes if we have to.

7 Injured in Fresh Clashes in Indian Kashmir Print article Send a Tip from AP 20 Jul 2013 post a comment (AP) 7 injured in fresh clashes in Indian Kashmir By AIJAZ HUSSAIN Associated Press SRINAGAR, India Protesters have clashed with government troops in several parts of Indian-controlled Kashmir for the second straight day, defying a curfew imposed to restrain public anger over the killing of four villagers in the disputed region. Police said that the protesters Saturday threw rocks, and that police and paramilitary forces used batons and tear gas and fired warning shots of live ammunition to control the crowds. Five protesters and 2 police officers were injured in the clashes. At least 50 people were injured in similar clashes Friday. The unrest follows the fatal shootings by government troops Thursday of four villagers who were protesting the alleged desecration of the Muslim holy book by border guards in a remote village in the region.

'American Chopper' revival to be 'Senior vs. Junior,' pit father and son
By Christopher Rocchio, 04/07/2010
American Chopper
upcoming revival
will apparently pit a still-feuding father and son against each other.
The TLC reality series' revival -- dubbed
American Chopper
: Senior vs. Junior
-- will follow Paul Teutul, Sr. as he operates his Orange County Choppers motorcycle business in Newburgh, NY while his son Paul Jr. runs his own Paul Jr. Designs startup motorcycle shop across from Orange County Choppers's original location in nearby Rock Tavern,
The New York Post
American Chopper
sixth and supposed final season
last spring and the finale
aired in February
. The season featured Paul Sr. feuding with sons Paul Jr. and Mikey, resulting in their departures from Paul Sr.'s Orange County Choppers motorcycle business in New York.
Reality TV World: American Chopper
More American Chopper News
Afterward, the show continued to chronicle the men's separate activities, which included Paul Sr. continuing to run Orange County Choppers on his own, and Paul Jr. -- who is currently in a court dispute with Paul Sr. over the value of a minority stake in his father's business -- attempting to launch his own design business.
Paul Sr. and Paul Jr. haven't spoken in over a year.
"I'm always hopeful for a reconciliation, but sometimes these things happen for a reason," Paul Jr. told
The Post
. "Even though you never want dissension in any family, especially with your father, this has allowed me to break out and do things on my own."
While Paul Jr. claims he wishes there would be a reconciliation, his father said he needs to prove it through actions -- not talk.
"Junior seems to say all the time he'd like to reconcile, but the thing of it is, he's never come to me with that. I'm happy he's making an attempt to go out on his own, but I don't feel he's ever really followed through with anything in his life," Paul Sr. told
The Post
"But this way, if he fails, he can't say, 'My dad made me fail.'"
American Chopper
: Senior vs. Junior
will begin filming next week and is currently slated to premiere in August, according to
The Post
, which added the show's exact format is still unknown.
"This is a very bitter situation that runs really deep," executive producer Christo Doyle told
The Post
. "At times I feel I'm a family therapist and not a producer."
TLC is expected to formally announce the show's order later this week during its upfront presentation for advertisers.
