I hear statements from politicians and citizens that make my hair stand up on the back of my neck. It reminds me of the 2008 book by Susan Jacoby, "Dumbing Down America".

Kristy Swanson arrested for assaulting Fox 'Skating' partner's ex-wife
By Christopher Rocchio, 06/18/2007
Lloyd Eisler must be a pretty incredible guy.
Kristy Swanson, Eisler's
Skating with Celebrities
and the
mother of his third child
, was arrested late Saturday night for allegedly assaulting his ex-wife, People
Sunday. The 37-year-old actress was reportedly released from a Kingston, Ontario jail on $500 bail after she was taken to a Canadian police station following a complaint issued by Eisler's ex-wife, Marcia O'Brien.
"I had to go to the police station where I had an appointment at 9PM to begin the process of being arrested," Swanson told

More Skating With Celebrities News
While O'Brien may have been the one to file the first complaint, Swanson -- who filed a counter complaint of her own on Sunday -- alleges she was not the one to initiate the altercation. Swanson's publicist Michael Sands said in a Monday
released to E! News that Swanson and Eisler traveled to Canada to discuss the custody arrangements of O'Brien and Eisler's two children at O'Brien's home.
"The child of Kristy Swanson and Lloyd Eisler was in the back child safety seat of the minivan along with Lloyd's two young children," Sands said in the statement. "Kristy was accompanying Lloyd on a scheduled parental visit to Kingston."
However that's when things took a turn for the worse, as Swanson claimed she was attacked by O'Brien in-front of Eisler and O'Brien's children,
reported. According to Sands, investigators took photos of both alleged victims' injuries, with Swanson sustaining bruises and scratches to her back, left knee, arm and upper parts of her body.
"It's a she-said-she-said type of thing," Kingston Police Department Constable Mike Menor told E!. "Pretty cut and dry really." Kingston police will decide whether to arrest or charge O'Brien by Tuesday morning, according to
Sands seems pretty sure the alleged altercation between Swanson and O'Brien was O'Brien's fault, telling
Toronto's Globe and Mail
on Monday that he had to "go operational" upon learning O'Brien was trying to claim she was the victim. The headline of the statement he issued to the media was "Kristy Swanson assaulted by ex wife of Lloyd Eisler," according to the
Globe and Mail
. As for O'Brien's alleged injuries - -which reportedly include a black eye -- Sands told the
Globe and Mail
"her face likely collided with the car door when she lunged at" Eisler.
"Unless she punched herself in the eye when she got home," added Sands, the
Globe and Mail
"For them to do something like this in front of my kids is horrendous," O'Brien, who declined to talk about the specifics of the incident, told the
Globe and Mail
on Sunday night.
Swanson and Eisler -- a two-time Olympic pairs figure skating medalist and world champion -- were paired together by Fox for
Skating with Celebrities
in the summer of 2005. The pre-taped reality competition series
in January 2006, and one month later a then-pregnant O'Brien
blamed an affair
between Eisler and Swanson for breaking up their marriage. Eisler -- who has denied that his relationship with Swanson began before he and his former wife separated -- divorced O'Brien in November and currently lives in Los Angeles with Swanson. Swanson gave birth to their first child together, Magnus Hart Stewart, in mid-February.
"I am sorry that my ex-wife is being so vindictive," Eisler told E!. "I left my wife, contrary to what other media sources have reported in the past. My ex-wife is trying to cover up the assault by falsely pressing charges with the local constable first."

Permanent Moves
If you're leaving the Sooner State permanently, don't worry about canceling your registration or surrendering your license plates. Also, don't bother trying to obtain a refund on the unused portion of your registration, as the state does not offer such refunds.
However, be sure to notify your insurance carrier of your change of your address.
Temporary Moves
If you're moving out of the state on a temporary basis, you must notify the Department of Public Safety of your change of address within 10 days of the move.
To do so, either stop by a tag agent office, or send a letter containing the necessary information to:
- Department of Public Safety
- P.O. Box 11415
- Oklahoma City, OK 73136-0415
Failing to do this could result in your license being suspended.
Preparing for the Move
Be sure to visit our "New to Your State" section for an overview of driving-related tasks that should be tackled immediately after you settle into your new home.
Military Information
Military members and their dependents who will be temporarily living outside of Oklahoma should check out our Drivers in the Military section for important registration and license information regarding their special situation.

Hope Larson is the author of Salamander Dream, Gray Horses, Chiggers, and Mercury. She won a 2007 Eisner Award. She lives in Los Angeles, California.
"Know somebody who hasn't met Mrs Whatsit, Mrs Who or Mrs Which? Larson's colorful panels bring Madeline L'Engle's brilliant time-travel favorite to life in an exciting new way. This is page-turning eye candy of the highest order." --James Patterson
"This adaptation is fabulous for presenting a fresh vision to those familiar with the original, but it's so true to the story's soul that even those who've never read it will come away with a genuine understanding of L'Engle's ideas and heart." - Booklist, starred review
"The memorable story of Meg Murry, Charles Wallace Murry, and Calvin O'Keefe's adventure across space and time is conveyed with all the intellectual and emotional impact of the original novel." -- BCCB
"Larson has remained true to the story, preserving the original chapter format and retaining L'Engle's voice. Black-and-white artwork is accented with blue, echoing the original cover color." - School Library Journal

Following in the footsteps of her father; Elsie became a Minister. She was a devout Christian, Minister, Missionary and a member of the New Testament Holiness Church in Bangs, Tx. She dedicated the majority of her life to her missionary work; traveling, teaching God's word, bringing the scriptures to people around the world, giving Bibles to many who had never seen or heard of a Bible, and baptising souls. She made a great many friends along the way. She was known to all of her family and friends as a great prayer warrior; always taking the time to pray with/for those who were in need of prayer.
Without a doubt, Elsie was the matriarch of her family; a loving mother, grandmother, great-grandmother, aunt and friend. She continued to show love and strength throughout her lengthy, valiant battle with ovarian cancer. She will be dearly remembered and sorely missed.
She is survived by her; son Richard Larry Ashley of Brownwood, TX; daughters Joyce Pugh of Early, TX, Sheila (Don) Hendrix of Floresville, TX., Charlotte (Byron) Cook of Pensacola, FL.; brother Seaborn (Gail) Chavers of McDavid, FL; Aunt Gloria Etheridge Odom of Dalton, GA; six grandchildren; six great-grandchildren; and seventeen nieces and nephews.

A Smoother Wine 1.1.24
Wine 1.1.24 has smoothed out rough edges and now functions with various Windows games while Linux applications run better.
The Wine project is clearly not asleep at the wheel: with Wine 1.1.24 there is a new version of Windows API for Linux which supports free desktop file associations. Also, improved ARB Shaders are included, and exception handling for 64-bit systems are now supported. In addition, the current version has cleaned up a number of bugs.
World of Warcraft was a casualty of an extreme drop of FPS since version 3.0.2. The issue was resolved in addition to an incorrect display of icons with Direct 3D. The Windows version of Gimp 2.6 can now be opened with Wine images. The HDR rendering for various programs has been corrected and the performance from Test Drive has been improved.
Wine is now able to load the interface from Photoshop CS 4, and errors which appeared on start up before have been eliminated as well as error messages due to functions which were not available. In Trackmania Nations Forever, the keyboard functions once more, as well as the installer from Ghost Recon. A crash from Quicken 2009 has been done away with and errors that appeared upon installation of Dragon NaturallySpeaking 10 likewise.
A whole slew of additional bug fixes exist, which can be read in detail here. Those who wish to download the new version will find the source code here. Those willing to wait a bit, will soon be able to download Wine over Packet manager and an external repository will be available too. For OpenSuse, external source code is to be found here, for Ubuntu here, and Debianer also has fresh packets available here.

Atlanta Bear Fest crowns its hairy tops [photos]
A weekend of burly, fuzzy and leather-clad men was topped by the Mr. Atlanta Bear & Atlanta Cub Contest on Saturday at Eagle, a signature event of the Atlanta Bear Fest.
Atlanta guy Alan Peoples was crowned Mr. Atlanta Bear, while Charlotte resident Stephen Collins won the Atlanta Cub title.
The weekend, dubbed Roman Holiday, unfolded at the Eagle when participants weren't splashing around host hotel Courtyard Northlake Marriott. The popular annual festival went so well that organizers of the 2013 fest offered up an early-bird registration for next year on Monday.

First, it was announced at the Convergence 2013 conference that Microsoft has acquired leading social analytics and monitoring solutions provider Netbreeze, and will integrate the company's robust native language analytics, data mining, and transactional and text analysis capabilities into the Microsoft Dynamics CRM platform. Netbreeze offers comprehensive coverage of social channels such as Facebook, YouTube and Twitter as well as thousands of other sites, blogs and news boards, in support of 28 different writing systems including German, English, French, Spanish, Russian, Arabic, Japanese, Traditional Chinese, and Mandarin – delivering a significant advantage over other solutions that require translating social activity back to a common language in order to analyze sentiment.
Law enforcement and public safety agencies are increasingly turning to social media and open data for better situational awareness and collaboration. With the Netbreeze acquisition, the expanded capabilities within Microsoft Dynamics CRM will enable public safety agencies to protect and proactively improve citizens safety in profound new ways – from monitoring peaks in Twitter traffic during major events in order to mobilize police forces appropriately, to identifying criminal activity on social networks, to enabling better communication between emergency responders in a crisis by surfacing data from numerous sources.
Second, the Illinois Department of Corrections has demonstrated both pragmatic responsibility and tremendous vision by recently deploying the "Offender-360" solution, which uses the cloud-based Microsoft Dynamics CRM platform to monitor information for 49,000 prison inmates and 28,000 parolees across 26 correctional centers in the state.
The Offender-360 system replaces a large 1980s mainframe system as well as 41 disparate offender management applications and centralizes all information and intelligence on offenders – such as disciplinary tracking, sentence credits, sentence calculation, risk assessment, and medical records – to help staff make more effective and informed decisions regarding placement, rehabilitation, and release. The implementation is expected to save taxpayers millions of dollars while also increasing public safety, improving outcomes for offenders, and reducing recidivism rates.

Fran Kinchen recalls her high school alma mater, Wilson High School, was a safe place. One of the two all-black schools in Tift County prior to desegregation, the schools were loved by their students.
"We learned, we had fun," she said. "There weren't any bad times that I can remember." She added that students frequently won awards and scholarships for academic achievements, and recognition in district and state competitions. The school's football team, the Tigers, was led to victory by Arthur Mott, and there was also an active PTA, and band and booster clubs.
When the option to move to the white schools became available, Kinchen said a few students in 1968 decided to move to Tift County High School…then a few more in 1969. And in 1970, "that was our last class," she said.
Kinchen chose to stay at Wilson.
"It was scary. It was the fear of not knowing how we would be received," she said. "We had been segregated all of our lives and it was all we had ever known."
Students weren't the only ones who were afraid. Kinchen said parents were also fearful.
But beyond the fear was a love for their school. Kinchen said they loved their school, and that was the biggest motivation to stay. There was little the white school could offer them that they didn't already have.
"I remember the books," she said. "They had new books. We used to get all their old books with the pages torn out."
Overall, Kinchen recalled, there were very few problems when the schools combined. But she also remembers that during that time, "I don't recall have a white friend." The town and all of the activities were divided by the railroad tracks, and she lived on the south side of those tracks.
Kinchen said the public areas were segregated, and there were few, if any, restaurants for blacks.
"I never remember going in and sitting in a restaurant," she said. White teenagers hung out at The Varsity, and black students were only allowed to pick up food at the side or back door.
"We were allowed go to Shady Lane and hang out," she recalled.
But there was no shortage of things to do. "We had our own fun things to do. We had our own prom, graduation ceremonies and other activities. We didn't do anything with white students," she said.
Kinchen said she and her peers walked to school, and she remembers the white students yelling horrible names at them from the buses, and throwing debris at them.
"Some scary moments, but we as blacks had learned to endure the harassment and name calling," she said.
Children in her community often had to miss school in order to work in the fields to help their families.
"Working in the fields – that's how we got our school clothes. We picked cotton, gathered tobacco. Those were the only jobs we could do," she said.
After Kinchen graduated from high school, she attended Thomas Area Technical School and majored in Secretarial Science, a choice she says her mother wasn't very pleased with. Her mother had wanted her to be a nurse.
But Kinchen had helped Pearline Johnson with cleaning a local bank, and had become fascinated with the big desks and offices. She went on to get a job as a secretary to the Evening Director at Thomas Tech-Walton Division, until she moved back to Tifton in 1972.
It was at that time Kinchen was faced with another choice. There were no options for a black secretary in the white businesses in Tifton, and after several disappointments, she applied for a position at the Rural Development Center. She took the entry test and typed more than 90 words per minute with only three mistakes. Her skills got her the job. Dr. David Bedell and two other specialists hired her as their secretary. Bedell became a father figure for her as the years went by, guiding her in her career.
Kinchen later became the first black secretary to serve in all the offices, including president, of the Tiftarea National Secretaries Association. She also took on the challenge of running for office for the National Secretaries Association State Convention, and became the first black secretary to lead more than 20 professional secretary chapters in Georgia.
But she didn't stop there. She became the first black secretary to the Vice President of Academic Affairs, and later on, the first and only black secretary to the President of Abraham Baldwin Agricultural College.
"ABAC provided me with so many opportunities, and I will forever be grateful," she said, adding with a laugh, that show was often introduced as the "first black…"
Eventually, Kinchen retired – but only for six months. She joined the city of Tifton staff as promotion coordinator, and is currently director of the Leroy Rogers Senior Center. She's often asked if she will again retire.
"My answer is when I get ready. As long as I can work and help folks, that's what I'm going to do," she said. "My greatest joy is being able to help others, regardless of race. God has provided me with many skills and talent, so it's so easy to just do it."
Kinchen calls her work at Leroy Rogers a joy, because she assists so many people who are in need of the services offered there.
"We want to offer services to all citizens of the community, especially our seniors," she said. "The real satisfaction comes from making a difference in people's lives.
Kinchen is also involved in her church, Springfield Baptist, where she's been a member for more than 50 years. She has served as program committee chair, finance secretary and is currently church secretary and a Sunday school teacher.
She lives in Tifton and has two children, Regina Kinchen-Ovagha and Reginald Kinchen.
One of the most important choices you can make in your life, Kinchen said, is to make a difference in your community, no matter who you are, where you live, or to what culture you belong.
"I believe that the world be so much better if we only care enough. Never, ever let culture or race keep you from dreaming big. Keep crossing the color lines. Keep fulfilling your dreams. And let the history of a great people empower you to be the great history makers of tomorrow," she said.

York Weather
Hi welcome to our York weather page. Here you can find a forecast, information about York's climate and more...
York Climate Information
"As part of the United Kingdom, the Vale of York generally has cool summers and relatively mild winters. Weather conditions vary from day to day as well as from season to season. The latitude of the area means that it is influenced by predominantly westerly winds with depressions and their associated fronts, bringing with them unsettled and windy weather, particularly in winter. Between depressions there are often small mobile anticyclones that bring periods of fair weather. In winter anticyclones bring cold dry weather. In summer the anticyclones tend to bring dry settled conditions which can lead to drought.
For its latitude this area is mild in winter and cooler in summer due to the influence of the Gulf Stream in the northern Atlantic Ocean. Air temperature varies on a daily and seasonal basis. The temperature is usually lower at night and January is the coldest time of the year. The vale is in the rain shadow of the Pennines so has a lower rainfall total than areas to the west. It is also subject to more fog and frosts in winter than other areas because of the tendency of cold air to drain into the vale from surrounding higher ground."
Quoted from Wikipedia York Climate page.

What is the foundation of the US?
In other words, what is the problem that needs to be fixed that will fix all of the other problems in the US. (For example, education could fix the economy and job loss). Thanks for your thoughts.
May 5 2013: Education is probably the biggest factor here. People need to realize how capable they really are. It's amazing to hear all of the limitations people apply to themselves. You are all amazing creatures. The sooner we can understand that the sooner we move forward.
Open acceptance of all people everywhere is key. Nobody should hold all of the power. However, i do believe we need structure.
Equality for all. This doesn't just apply to groups of people you agree with. This doesn't just apply to lifestyles you agree with. Equality is an absolute state of balance.
We have enough resources to ensure everyone has what they need. There's no reason to allow human suffering to continue. However, we cannot make life too easy.
Struggle does build character. We should limit this struggle though. People should not be forced into lifestyles because of obstacles they will never overcome.
Everyone deserves a fair shot. We should have no excuses for limiting a person and their ability to achieve in life. We should focus on education.
This isn't about teaching our kids how to live. It's about educating them about possibilities and equipping them with the tools necessary to reach their goals. When a human mind determines they are done....they are done. We need to make sure people understand how capable they are. -
May 5 2013: "What is the foundation of our nation?" (the u.s.?)
I thought it was honesty and integrity.
Let's see what actually happened?
Deceit, lies, deception, theft, murder, prejudice, racism, intolerance, persecution, prosecution, incarceration, lots of propaganda and now brainwashing, terrorism and Fascism.
Looks like greed, crime and corruption.
The cause? Money.
Get rid of money.
Then, and only then, can humans solve these problems because money blocks solving them.
Things don't.........."get done".................because of money.
Things............."don't get done"..............because of money.
Nothing costs money.
Everything costs people.
Educate people that way.
Human Needs should be Human Rights. Freely given.
Given by whom? By everyone for that is what everyone is working for already but because of money too many, now many more, are starving, dying, diseased, polluted, dying of thirst and water-born diseases, trapped in slavery, poverty, murdered through the blood-thirsty-for-blood-letting wars of leaders, all for gain because of money.
Educate people in how to change these, how to stop this and how we are all connected, not separate as leaders tell us and use against us.
No one wants war so nations, people have to be fooled, tricked into war, i.e. lies, propaganda, deception, deceit and so on. -
May 6 2013: The freedoms and rights that our constitution and "Declaration" identify as being self evident, inalienable, unquestionable truths all creates a foundation of human society and governance that is under threat. This GREAT question is forever important and vitally valuable; because our nation's foundation must sustain itself.
The changes we experience will always be questioned and sometimes painful. Keeping our national identity intact while always accepting eventually legal immigrants is a globally important task for the survival of all humanity. The GOODNESS of our American promise is unique and must sustain itself throughout the world.
Mr. Elkattawy's question is beautiful. I hope he continues to build a stronger America. God bless all humanity and our great American people and their idealistic revolution. BOSTON STRONG FOREVER !!! :):):):) -
May 6 2013: IMO, if there is one key to fixing the problems in the USA, it is to continue experimenting with democracy. It is about time for our society to realize and admit that the form of democracy that we are currently practicing does not work very well. That is not to say that representative democracy is inherently flawed, just that we have not yet perfected the concept. The biggest obstacle to spreading this idea is false pride.
May 5 2013: "We have no government armed with power capable of contending with human passions unbridled by morality and religion. Avarice, ambition, revenge, or gallantry, would break the strongest cords of our Constitution as a whale goes through a net. Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other."
John Adams (The Works of John Adams, ed. C. F. Adams, Boston: Little, Brown Co., 1851, 4:31)
"Man will ultimately be governed by God or by tyrants."
Benjamin Franklin
:-) -
May 4 2013: I doubt that there is a single first step in a chain. Rather, the factors that we might list as great influences on measures of the quality of life are all endogenous. That is, they all depend on each other and feed into each other like an interlocking web rather than like a train track with a start and end of the line.
Jun 3 2013: I'm afraid there's no "magic bullet" that will fix everything. One thing that would make a big difference in the U.S. is reducing bribery and corruption in our national government. Much of this comes from the way our elections are funded - almost entirely by donations. The influence of big money in elections is directly corrupting, since the big donors expect something in return, often an "understanding" of their point of view. Public funding of elections would remove this source of corruption and potentially make the lawmakers more responsive to public needs rather to their own career enhancement.
An almost equally destructive feature of our government is the party system in Congress. We elect a representative to the House expecting him/her to represent our district, but as soon as the rep arrives in Washington his/her loyalty is to the Party, not to the district. This is largely responsible for the paralysis of Congress, as the aim of each party is strictly to ensure defeat of the other party in the next election. For the party in opposition to the President this means that they want the administration's policies to fail. That sounds almost treasonous, but that's what "opposition" has become in Washington.
Unfortunately, the persons who can change these systems are in Congress. That's a depressing thought. The only other possibility to get real change (within the law) is to work for constitutional revisions through the states. That could theoretically change the laws while bypassing Congress, but is it doable? Wouldn't be easy. -
May 7 2013: The eradication of the federal reserve.
It inhibits the enhancement of resource based energy (WHICH SHOULD BE FREE)
It inhibits people from obtaining the education EVERYONE (not just the rich and privileged) should obtain
It mentally cripples people, causing them to not see themselves as being as successful as the rich and privileged
It is the number one cause to murders, stealing, cheating, and greed
It is the number one reason as to why illnesses are being created, in hopes of pharmaceutical companies benefiting with the creation of treatments, cause research (THEY ALREADY KNOW THE CAUSE THEY MADE IT), and vaccinations
It's why people are dying from illnesses, lack of health care
It inhibits our technology from excelling to its fullest potential
It is a major motivator for war
It is a major cause of separation between classes and races.
It is the reason for the poor quality yet high pricing in foods and goods
It is the cause of government officials (PUBLIC SERVANTS) making decisions in favor of big businesses as opposed to the people
It is the cause to pollution
Why aren't there an abundance of electric/resource powered cars/homes/buildings?
Why is oil still being spilled in oceans?
Why are there countries with lower to almost no access to water?
And the list goes on...
We need an abundance in self sufficiency until and after the eradication of the federal reserve.-
Jun 3 2013: I like your idea that things should be free - I felt the same way when I was little. You say energy should be free and the world should be electrified. Who in your opinion strings the high tension wires and clears and bulldozes the power lanes through the forests, to provide the electricity? Nobody does that for fun, it's backbreaking work. For that matter, who makes the bulldozers and the wires and the insulation and the washers and the steel beams and the ten thousand other parts, and who designs and runs the networks, etc? The government? Does the government barter bread, meat and shirts to the workers to get them to come and do the work?
Money is, of course, just a medium for barter. It allows us to barter an equivalent of something that we don't actually have, for example to say that a month's rent is worth so many loaves of bread or whatever. Without it I would have to barter the wool from my sheep to the shoemaker for a bottle of milk, if the dairy farmer doesn't need wool but does need shoes. Money allows me to bypass all that and barter an "equivalence unit" in a store for whatever I need. I'm afraid that if we got rid of money we'd soon reinvent it.
May 5 2013: the people and the culture they agree to
What needs to be fixed is the agreement.
How do you fix agreement? with at least a remedial education in economics. and IMO required if you are going to vote.
Hayak said:
Socialists do not understand economics if they did they would not be socialists. -

Time lists hottest retail trends for 2012
- Tricia Lynn Silva
- Reporter/Project Coordinator- San Antonio Business Journal
- Email | Twitter | Google+
With the end of 2012 only a mere days away, many (including myself) have begun dissecting the year that was.
One hot topic I've come across is the hottest retail trends for 2012, courtesy of Time.com.
Reporter Brad Tuttle did not create a run-down of what people bought, but rather how they bought it — Internet versus bricks and mortar, how retailers pushed the holiday season way up this year, and more.
A brief look at some of Tuttle's trends:
• Black Friday expands: More and more retailers opened for business on Thanksgiving Day, rather than waiting until Black Friday; which leads us to another trend,
• Online soars, stores, so-so: E-commerce ruled supreme during the holiday season; which leads us to our next 2012 trend,
• Brick-and-mortar and online (try to) become one: Gone are the days when those at the bricks-and-mortar store need not communicate with those running a retailer's website. "Retailers with a presence on the web and in real stores seem to have finally embraced the idea that both segments must be partners sending the same message to shoppers," writes Tuttle. Alas, it is still a work in progress.
• Season of Giving — to oneself: Given the plethora of deals that retailers offer during the holiday season, buying for yourself "just makes rational sense," Tuttle states.
• Here's a gift, now get a gift: The gift-card is gaining popularity among gift-getters. As Tuttle points out, consumers may not relish a trip to the store to return a gift, but they are more than willing to make the trek with a gift-card in hand.
