A wind chill advisory has been extended for Chautauqua County through 6 p.m. today, the National Weather Service has announced. The advisory also affects southern Erie County.
The NWS has current temperatures in Jamestown around 3 degrees, with a wind chill factor of minus 18 degrees. Snowfall also is expected to continue in the Southern Tier, with another 4 to 8 inches of accumulation.
A lake effect snow warning remains in effect for the county through 7 p.m. today.
The biggest concern, though, remains with the bone-chilling cold and winds up to 25 mph.
"With wind chills this cold, you want to make sure you dress in layers," said Jon Hitchcock, meteorologist with the National Weather Service, Buffalo office. "Anytime you have a wind chill like this and you're outside for more than 20 to 30 minutes, there is a real risk of frostbite."
Hitchcock said the Southern Tier should expect the bitter-cold temperatures throughout the evening. Winds should die down by tonight, which will help with the wind chill factor, he said.
"The winds should diminish later on, and that will reduce the wind chill," he said. "But it's still going to be very cold around here."

< Return To Hearing
The Honorable John Cornyn
United States Senator Examining U.S. Efforts to Combat Human Trafficking and Slavery This subcommittee is expressly chartered to oversee constitutional and civil rights issues across America. Just last month, the subcommittee examined the pervasive problem of hostility to religious expression in public squares across America. Today's hearing will look at the most fundamental of all of our cherished civil rights. Today, the subcommittee will examine U.S. efforts to combat human trafficking and slavery across America. As the Administration continues to fight to protect the American way of life in its war against terrorism, it has also been fighting another war to protect American ideals and principles - a war against an old evil: human trafficking and slavery. Most Americans would be shocked to learn that the institutions of slavery and involuntary servitude - institutions that this nation fought a bloody war to destroy - continue to persist today - not just around the world, but hidden in communities across America. It has been nearly two centuries since the abolition of the transatlantic slave trade, and well over a century since the ratification of the Thirteenth Amendment. Yet to this day, men, women and children continue to be trafficked into the United States, and coerced into lives of forced labor and sexual slavery. The stories they tell are tragic, disturbing, and heart-rending. And the acts they endure are not just unconstitutional, not just criminal - they are profoundly evil, immoral, and wrong. Today, we will hear tales of human suffering - from across Texas, and across America. Their experiences amount to a modern-day form of slavery. Their stories are not easy to hear - but we must hear them and we must face up to them, if we are to finish the work of the Thirteenth Amendment, and truly expel the institution of slavery from our midst. We will hear their stories, and then we will learn what the Administration has been doing to alleviate this suffering. Specifically, we will examine the Justice Department's efforts to protect the victims of human trafficking and slavery, to punish the evildoers, and to prevent other innocent human beings from ever having to suffer the same fate. On March 27, 2001 - within weeks of taking office - Attorney General John Ashcroft announced the creation of a comprehensive Justice Department initiative to combat human trafficking in America. Since that announcement, the Department has undertaken an aggressive campaign to eradicate slavery in America - an effort led by the Civil Rights Division, and joined by other components within Main Justice, as well as U.S. Attorney offices across the country. The Thirteenth Amendment states, and I quote: "Neither slavery nor involuntary servitude . . . shall exist within the United States, or any place subject to their jurisdiction." This is a unique provision of our Constitution. Many constitutional amendments protect individual rights against actions by federal, state, and local governments. Other amendments alter the structure of our government. But the Thirteenth Amendment is different. It protects fundamental human rights by abolishing an entire institution of society. The Thirteenth Amendment is unique, because under it, slavery and involuntary servitude cannot exist - in public and private spheres alike. Yet the institution of slavery continues to exist, even today. In communities across America, human beings are trafficked - literally bought and sold - into lives of forced labor or sex slavery. The trafficking of human beings is evil, immoral, and wrong - yet most Americans are unaware even of its existence, let alone its magnitude. According to government estimates, approximately 800,000 human beings are bought, sold or forced across the world's borders each year. Moreover, Americans may be particularly alarmed to learn that at least 15,000 human beings are trafficked into lives of slavery in the United States each year. Indeed, according to some estimates, the number could be as high as 50,000 per year. We cannot grasp the true, horrifying nature of human trafficking and slavery with numbers alone, however. We must not simply count the victims - we must also hear their stories. Just recently, the Justice Department obtained convictions in the largest labor trafficking case it has ever prosecuted [United States v. Kil Soo Lee]. Kil Soo Lee, a Korean businessman, transported over 200 workers from China and Vietnam into United States territory. He detained them and forced them to work in his American Samoa garment factory under slave-like conditions, enforcing his will by ordering beatings by his henchmen - using sharpened pipes, fluorescent lights, chairs, and fists. Civil Rights Division attorneys successfully prosecuted Mr. Lee and his partners under the federal criminal slavery and peonage statutes. Mr. Lee's sentencing is pending, and two of his thugs are already serving substantial time. Consider another tragic example, this one from my home state of Texas. An international trafficking operation - known by local prosecutors as the "Molina Organization" - promised young females a better life and employment in the United States, as either housekeepers or waitresses in restaurants throughout the Ft. Worth area. Once they arrived, however, they were coerced into lives of prostitution and forced labor. Over 200 young women were trafficked from Honduras into the United States by this operation. The U.S. Attorney's office in the Northern District of Texas, working in conjunction with the Civil Rights Division, shut down the operation by bringing charges against nine defendants [United States v. Molina]. Six defendants eventually pled guilty, while three others are fugitives from justice. I recently received a letter from the Justice Department detailing numerous examples of forced labor and sex slavery cases all across the country - from California to Maryland, Hawaii to New Jersey, Georgia to New Hampshire. Without objection, that letter will be entered into the record. And we are honored to have before the subcommittee today two distinguished U.S. Attorneys from Texas, who bring with them tragic tales to tell from their respective districts. Thankfully, Congress and the Administration have been working closely together in recent years to combat human trafficking. Congress has enacted legislation such as the Trafficking Victims Protection Act of 2000 - to strengthen federal criminal slavery statutes, to provide victims with basic human needs so that they can begin the road to recovery, and to encourage their cooperation with law enforcement so that others will not suffer a similar fate. Just last fall, we enacted legislation to reauthorize and strengthen that Act. The Administration has responded to the call, by dramatically increasing efforts and devoting substantially more resources toward combating human trafficking. Under the leadership of the Civil Rights Division, the Justice Department has prosecuted and convicted three times the number of traffickers over the past three fiscal years as in the preceding three years. The Department has created an office of Special Counsel for Trafficking Issues to coordinate anti-trafficking efforts, published educational and awareness-raising materials and circulated them to officials across America, and provided assistance to victims by installing a toll-free hotline. In addition, the Department has already established state and local task forces in Philadelphia, Atlanta, Phoenix, and Tampa, to coordinate anti-trafficking efforts of federal, state, and local government and non-governmental organizations (NGOs) in those areas. Clearly, the Department recognizes that the support of local officials, in government and in the private sector alike, is absolutely essential to any successful effort to uncover the evil acts of human trafficking and slavery that are so carefully hidden in numerous pockets across America. I look forward to working with the Department to begin establishing such task forces in the state of Texas later this year. And next week, the Justice Department is sponsoring a historic "National Conference on Human Trafficking" in Tampa, Florida - bringing together federal, state, and local officials, social service agencies, and NGOs, to provide training and coordination to anti-human trafficking efforts across the country, as provided in the fiscal year 2004 appropriations bill. I also applaud Congress for recognizing the problem. Today's hearing is certainly not the first Congressional hearing to bring attention to the deeply disturbing problem of human trafficking - and it must not be the last. My colleagues and I must continue to vigilantly monitor the situation, and to consider whether further legislation is necessary to bolster the Department's efforts. For example, if further improvements to our federal criminal slavery and peonage statutes would assist prosecutors and facilitate legitimate prosecutions, so be it. If federal legislation is needed to ensure that immigration T-Visas and other important and compassionate protections are provided to true victims of human trafficking and slavery, let's do it. If more state laws are necessary to ensure that federal efforts are accompanied by robust efforts at the state and local level, let's encourage it. My home state of Texas, as well as the states of Washington and Florida, have led the way by enacting state criminal laws against human trafficking. Other states should seriously consider joining the cause. Human traffickers peddle in human misery. They smuggle innocent human beings into this country, and condemn them to lives of forced labor or sex slavery. For countless numbers of victims, the American dream quickly turns into an American nightmare. Such tales of human suffering should not exist anywhere in the world - and especially not in the United States of America. I want to close my remarks by quoting a man whose passing Americans continue to mourn. On January 11, 1989, President Reagan delivered his 34th - and final - address from the Oval Office. In that farewell address, he said, and I quote: "America is freedom - freedom of speech, freedom of religion, freedom of enterprise. And freedom is special and rare. It's fragile; it needs protection." The American commitment to eradicating human trafficking and slavery from our midst is a solemn vow - reflecting the highest traditions of our Founding Fathers, and the drafters of the Thirteenth Amendment. It is a commitment to the principles of freedom and liberty that Americans have fought and died to protect - a commitment that Americans across the nation commemorated just three days ago. And it is a profoundly moral commitment - not just to punish violators of our criminal laws, but to repel an assault on our Nation's core beliefs about the fundamental worth and dignity of every human being. |

custy reviews
for the Black Diamond VaporLock Screwgate Carabiner
Average Custy Rating:
(based on 44 reviews)
I'm not the most experienced climber (at all really...) but so far so good! I'm using this with a standard Black Diamond ATC while belaying and it's been so far perfect. It unlocks and locks easily. It's definitely a good size yet still lightweight compared to other carabiners I've dealt with. The lime is kind of a weird color to be but obviously that doesn't effect it's use, only it's aesthetics. I would recommend it especially to those wanting to lighten their load or to anyone doing gym-top roping.
I purchased a set of these biners with a very specific purpose in mind, which was constructing big wall climbing anchors. I don't know if you've ever seen a big wall anchor, but they're basically gigantic cluster jumbles of multiple ropes, cords, and dozens of biners attached to 2 or 3 bolts. Using large locking biners to clip the bolts means that you can clip more things into those lockers and keep your belay somewhat organized. I bought these thinking they were as large as the BD Rocklock biner (they are not), but the pear shape still gives enough space that they'll perform the intended function very well. The construction makes them very lightweight, which is a bonus.
I didn't expect to notice the advertised 30% more breaking power and it still might just me my brain falling for the advertising but i think its there. I haven't used my traditional style round carabiner back to back with this carabiner for a true test but I plan to soon.
I want my gear to be the lightest possible, enter the black diamond vaporlock. I picked up this beaner based on reviews and having nothing but good to say about it. Several of my buddies have went and bought these after borrowing mine. Hands down one of the smoothest beaners to use for belaying. Bottom line is that you need this beaner, if your all about having the lighest gear. I trust it to get the job done time and time again.
I matched this carabiner with my ATC for belaying, and I love it. The shape of the carabiner (slight edges as opposed to rounded) increases friction when braking. The twist-lock is easy to use and tightens securely when the gate is closed. It's small size feels less cumbersome on a harness than other set-ups I have used. There are no hooks on this Biner' to snag rope when clipping and un-clipping from your belay set-up. Additional uses; twin this carabiner for a rock-solid top-rope anchor. Caveat; It's gate clearance is smaller than other locking carabiner's I have used (I'm not sure of the exact specs).

Tuesday's Letters to the Editor
Published: Monday, February 11, 2013 at 6:21 p.m.
Last Modified: Monday, February 11, 2013 at 6:21 p.m.
Texas pitching
EDITOR: I was disappointed by your enthusiastic endorsement of Gov. Jerry Brown's rude and disingenuous response to Gov. Rick Perry's pitch to bring California jobs to Texas. ("Tall Tales? A Look at Texas' sales pitch," editorial, Friday).
In 2011, Lt. Gov. Gavin Newsom led a bipartisan group of legislators to Texas specifically to learn why Texas was attracting more jobs than California. CNBC's 50 state comparative ranking of business attractiveness in 2012 ranks Texas No. 1. California is ranked No. 40. In the ranking subcategories, Texas is ranked No. 1 in infrastructure and transportation; California is ranked No. 30. In education, where you choose to ridicule Texas' performance, CNBC ranks Texas 26th, but California is ranked No. 33. America's top 650 CEOs ranked California "the worst state in which to do business" in 2012, for the eighth straight year.
Yes, California still has Silicon Valley and some significant quality-of-life benefits relative to Texas. But there is no denying that more business-friendly policies would attract new business, bring jobs and spur growth. Brown's "Nothing to see here; let's move on" response to this serious deficiency in California's business climate is appalling.
Santa Rosa
Teens and steroids
EDITOR: Steroids. One word, multiple problems. It's no secret that teens use them. Boys often turn to these drugs in order for muscle growth and talent attributes. It seems, however, that they don't realize the danger of the chemicals they are packing into their bodies.
Steroids can affect people long-term, affecting males in ways of breast growth and voice pitch changes and females in ways of hair growth and voice change. Steroids affect male and females emotionally. Steroids have been known to cause extreme and violent mood swings.
School sports teams can stop this by randomly and repeatedly drug testing their student players. Schools should make a habit of educating students about the dangers and life alterations caused by steroids. What makes an athlete is the passion and courage pumping through their bodies, not a drug from a bottle.
Not a wilderness
EDITOR: Hurray for the feds. In one fell swoop during difficult economic times, they accomplished the following:
All this to create a wilderness that ceased to be a wilderness 100 years ago. At this point, Drakes Bay, at best, is a potential wilderness. It can only be designated a wilderness after all the improvements of the oyster company have been removed. The original Wilderness Act of 1964 was created to preserve wilderness, not to create it. The potential wilderness designation was added at a later date.
Another coast monument
EDITOR: I was puzzled that someone as astute as Lynn Woolsey wrote
January was named "Say Hello to Your Favorite Rock" by members of the Mendocino Study Club (est. 1908), a collaborative partner of the California Coastal National Monument. Photos of favorite rocks were snapped and are on display at the Photographer Gallery on Main Street in Fort Bragg. The Sonoma/Mendocino Coast already has a very unique but not well known monument status with environmental protection being an important component.

Colorado brings an answer to a teenage call
Student finds calling on PRIME
"PRIME was just really God saying this was the call in my life."
Amid the Colorado mountains, something was stirring. This something was not an animal, or a storm, but something more abstract. A voice was heard, and a seeking heart found peace. Paige Wilson, a senior
youth ministries
major, had found her calling.
"When I was in eighth grade, my youth pastor asked me to go on a retreat with him and a group of high school kids. That was when the Lord was calling my hearts and told me like, 'I want you to follow me,'" Wilson said.
Since her pre-teen days, Wilson has felt a call in her life. She knew she was being prepared for something, and she found her answer during her
Wilson ventured to Englewood, Colo., during the summer months to serve at the Cherry Creek Presbyterian Church. Middle school ministries, training volunteers, and her own group of ninth grade high school girls became her life while there. Wilson also led numerous missions trips and service projects with her students.
"We would have B.L.O.F.F. nights, which stands for 'bring lots of friends for fun' night," Wilson said. "Sometimes we would add lots more F's on there for things like food, fantastic, friendly and things like that."
PRIME is an internship experience designed by the ministry and missions department at Huntington University. The PRIME (Practical Research and Immersion for Ministry Effectiveness) program prepares students to enter the field of ministry after graduation. Students choose a location of their choice during the months of May through December after the student's junior year. These students are then mentored by experienced ministry leaders.
Wilson was connected to her PRIME mentor Chris Piehl through HU graduate Nigel Berry. Wilson spoke to Berry about her upcoming PRIME experience, and Berry got her in contact with Piehl for the internship. A short while later, Wilson was Colorado-bound.
Wilson found what was tugging at her heart her whole life. PRIME has only been the beginning of the dream for her as she finishes up her senior year and begins her ministry.
"PRIME was just really God saying this was the call in my life," she said.

Unvanquished Alpha 25 Universal
Mar 5, 2014 Full Version 2 commentsEverything you need in one package, for Windows, Linux, and Mac. Check our website for the release post and/or Linux distro-specific packages.
Unvanquished is a fast-paced, futuristic FPS with RTS elements, pitting technologically advanced humans against hordes of highly adaptable aliens. The player can choose from either team, providing a fresh gameplay experience on both sides of the conflict. The game is under highly active development, with a new alpha release being made at the beginning of each month.
1 comment by justanotherdsalt on Mar 4th, 2014
What, already? Doesn't time fly… we've seen many changes to the code base, new maps, new models… modellers have come and gone, coders and mappers have come and (usually) stayed…
We've only gone and done it again. That's two months in a row. We clearly fail!
Seriously, though, this time it's because we've recompressed most images using formats which graphics cards natively support – basically, the DXTn family and derivatives. This improves loading times (one decompression step rather than two) and uses less memory – both main memory and graphics card memory. The base .pk3 is now some 70MB smaller than last month's was, and that was itself smaller than the many pak*.pk3 which it replaced (though that was mostly down to removal of obsolete resources).
Our maps haven't had the texture recompression treatment – yet…
Warvinc's drill and jdreyna's booster. Oh, and a tyrant, with a higher-resolution skin.
We've also started actually using IQM for models.
We've removed the old OpenGL 1 renderer. This leaves the renderer formerly known as GL3 and effectively raises the minimum requirement to OpenGL 2.1. There's also been a fix to some matrix maths which means that tone mapping now works properly – not that you'll have noticed, though, since this was one problem which was in the way of us using DXTn etc.
If you're using slower hardware and you were using the OpenGL 1 renderer, you may need to play with the graphics settings. In particular, that "Dlights, no fx" video quality preset which we added last month.
That lighting bug which affects some Tremulous maps was fixed a few weeks ago. No more green overminds in Nano!
Gamma correction is done in shaders now, so everybody gets to play with it. And we've played with the player state colour grading effects: no more fading or colouring for low health or tyrant
Basilisks and advanced dretches are gone. Instead, we have the mantis: it looks like a basilisk, it can pounce but it doesn't grab and it doesn't have a healing aura, or at least less of one. Its claws cause temporary slowing and will drain stamina.
Turret firing has been played with – damage done is affected by distance, and it's bursty. We've experimented with dretch health and found that 35 seems to work well given the turret changes and various other factors.
Jetpacks are now useable even without enough stamina to jump. We've fixed a problem with the game thinking that you've landed due to having touched ground by checking for upward acceleration. Ignition cost is reduced.
Builders can build again without waiting for building completion, but some waiting is still needed (it's currently set at 60% completion).
Writing of configuration files now goes via temporary files. This means that if there should be a problem when writing (partition full, for example), the old version will remain intact. The file which contains your identification details is private and, on Unix-type systems, is now created with appropriate permissions.
As of this release, .debs are no longer being built for Ubuntu 12.10 (quantal). We plan to drop support for 12.04 LTS (precise) and 13.04 (raring) in June: this will leave Debian 7 (wheezy) as the oldest supported GNU/Linux release.
Everything you need in one package, for Windows, Linux, and Mac. Check our website for the release post and/or Linux distro-specific packages.

Couldn't load default.cfg — I am missing essential files — verify your installation?
probably you should use their forums if you want to get help
the pak files arent downloading for you. Re-run the installer, and if you are using Avast Anti-Virus (And a bunch of others) turn it off. It blocks the installer (I learned it the hard way). You only need to disable it for the installation, and can turn back on your Anti-Virus when you play.
Report that as a false-positive to the Avast developers.
Well, Alpha 20 appears to hate me. I cant even play o-o
I get Syscall ABI Missmatch
And my console look like: Pastebin.com
Try downloading this and putting it in your asset directory. It seems that the installer isn't downloading pakJ: Sourceforge.net

Rep. Blaine Luetkemeyer (MI) recently published a guest post on the blog, Red County. Please see an excerpt of "Government Controlled Health Care is Unacceptable":
We can all agree that health care costs in America are out of control and coverage and care must be made more affordable. I am committed to making sure that any health care reform lowers costs without undermining quality of care. I will not support any plan that rations care or leaves life-and-death decisions up to government bureaucrats because of my belief in the absolute right of patients to make medical decisions with their doctors. In addition, I will work tirelessly to protect Medicare and Medicaid from being raided by the government to pay for the trillion-dollar takeover of health care currently proposed by Speaker Pelosi.

Pretty Brook Road, Estate of the Day
Filed under: Estates
For a while Tusculum was the most expensive property listed in Princeton, New Jersey. It's lingered on the market for two years and is now down to $9.75 million from a high of $12 million when it was our estate of the day. On top now is this charming Georgian manor house on 22 acres. The brick home and matching outbuildings share a classic style. The gracious older home is decorated in a formal style that makes you want to sit up a little straighter. It includes a breakfast room, conservatory and six bedrooms including a master suite. Things get a little more laid back on the third floor which is where you find the home theater, a wet bar and exercise room. The property also has a pool, tennis courts, six-car garage, backup garage, separate office with mahogany paneling and a billiard room, a caretaker's apartment and a greenhouse. It is listed at $14.5 million.

text: The ancient land of Mesoamerica, encompassing the entire Yucatan peninsula, was once home to the great Maya civilization. For years their rich culture remained shrouded in mysterythe wild Amazonian rain forest housing the culture and a violent colonial history probably pitched in their bits in further enhancing it. But with fresher discoveries of ancient archeological sites and scientific reinterpretations of their unique Calendar system, this image is fast changing. What is emerging is altogether different from the earlier Maya image, of a totally isolated and somewhat alien civilization, created by popular imagination. Its place has been taken by a far healthier attitude, which is eager to know, to learn about these amazing people and their culture.

Pardon my skepticism but does anyone else find the effusive praise in the handout to Greek Orthodox parishioners last Sunday overbearing? The author tries so hard to convince us of Patriarch Bartholomew's stratospheric virtues that the entire piece has an "Our Dear Leader" feel to it. It reads, I am sad to say, like propaganda. Strong words? Yes, but only because the endless strings of ebullient praise muddles other very important points. While Pat. Bartholomew's stand on the protection of the environment should be applauded, and while he has done much to raise awareness that environmental care is an issue to which Christians can contribute, it does not follow that all of his actions surrounding "creation care" (as some of the participants in the Mississippi River Symposium refer to it) are sound. For example, as part of Pat. Bartholomew's environmental program in the United States later this month, he plans a visit to Georgetown University to deliver a talk co-sponsored by … [Read more...]

Facebook launches live-streaming channel
Facebook has launched a live-streaming channel designed to provide its users with content detailing what's happening at the company's headquarters.
Dubbed Facebook Live, the new service is basically a PR channel for the company. According to a representative, Facebook Live "is a natural extension of our blog and is a way to communicate with our users more directly." Facebook will be airing interviews with people that stop by its headquarters, highlighting its new products, and trying to capture the "activity already happening at Facebook."

Years before the art of musical appropriation was made commonplace by remix and mash-up artists, Negativland (who formed in 1979), pioneered the use of mass-media cut-ups with jam-packed sound collages that sharply critiqued popular culture. Founded in the suburban San Francisco area by high-school friends Mark Hosler and Richard Lyons, the self-styled "Culture Jammers" began as an experimental group with a penchant for found sound and studio post-processing via tape manipulation and collage techniques. Their breakthrough album, ESCAPE FROM NOISE (1987), was distinguished by controversy when the band issued a disinformation campaign linking their song "Christianity Is Stupid" as the impetus behind the mass murders committed by Minnesota teen David Brom. The band continued to be dogged by controversy with its 1991 EP release, U2, a satiric send-up of the Irish-rockers peppered with profane rants from disc jockey Casey Kasem. The release embroiled them in a convoluted legal battle with U2's label, Island Records, who sued the group for copyright violation. Negativland's defense was largely argued around the "fair use" clause of U.S. copyright law, a theme which -- along with their various legal troubles -- figured prominently on later albums. Into the new millennium, various members of the band continued to press for alternate means of publishing as advocates of the intellectual property license Creative Commons.

A nicely hairy Tom Wolfe is lying back on the sofa getting his thick cock worked over by Jesse Santana, whos on all fours swallowing Tom to the base. Tom holds on to Jesses head and fucks his mouth, and Jesse wants more. Jesse cant get enough of Toms swollen member, and he sucks it like he wants to quickly get to its creamy center. Toms edging and he wants to continue this hot scenario so he stands Jesse up and gets on his knees so he can repay the oral favor. Tom gags himself with Jesses perfect cock wetting it completely with his mouth, licking on Jesses balls and then his piss slit and finally going all the way down on it repeatedly until Jesse jerks out a hot load that streams down Toms chest, after which Tom sucks on Jesse some more to make sure hes cleaned out entirely. This excites Tom and he jerks out a load onto Jesses chest.

There is a lot more to this story than is let on in this article. Apparently the problem is that the principal was including the "Black National Anthem" as well, punishing students who refused to stand for that, and going on the public address system to attack those students who would not.In addition, one of the so-called "disruptive activities" was students doing homework.And remember -- in the midst of WWII the Supreme Court ruled that schools cannot force students to say the pledge or stand for the national anthem. This clown has no leg to stand on. Click Here if you Like this Comment
Many moons ago when I attended high school, 2 or 3 surly, apathetic teen agers decided to not stand during the Pledge over the PA system one morning.The home room teacher saw what was going on and went nuclear: "My brothers died for that Flag", she bellowed, "And you will show the proper respect by standing up!"That got their attention. They promptly bounced out of their chairs and recited the Pledge. No one in that home room ever dared that again.End of controversy.End of discussion.

Gee, that´s strange. Was it the Constitution that was raised over Mt. Surabachi? Is it the Constitution that´s draped over the caskets of out honored dead?And what Constitutional Right does a student have to disrupt class with impunity? Click Here if you Like this Comment 1 person like this.
W Va was set up as a state as a favor for supporting Union in Civil War. Ask some of the counties and towns that were placed in W Va w/o their consent. The Union Congress told VA residents to use Federal Courts in a new state.I estimate W Va is so economically backward due to its mountain isolation and the fact it is so dependent upon Federal Government spending. Also seems that it has been involved in crony capitalizm for generations - press ownership, Senators, Congressmen - pay a ´finders fee´ and you´ll get the business/contract.So what explains why W Va votes for a democrat Senator and US House Reps and then sees the coal industry is being killed by the EPA? I think it gets back to my question - - does it start in the public schools or does it go back to the people that settled the state? Click Here if you Like this Comment
#12 -- I have no allegiance to a mass-produced piece of cloth that was likely made in China. What I do have allegiance to is the Constitution itself and the nation formed by it.And as for your "disrupt class with impunity" remark, may I refer you to these two decisions, including one made by the Supreme Court during WWII:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/West_Virginia_State_Board_of_Education_v._Barnettehttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tinker_v._Des_Moines_Independent_Community_School_DistrictNow if the students are causing an actual disruption -- as opposed to simply refusing to follow an arbitrarily demanded ritual that no government official (including a principal or classroom teacher) may legitimately impose upon them -- then we have an entirely different set of circumstances, and one where the issue is not the refusal to stand or participate in said ritual. Click Here if you Like this Comment 1 person like this.
#14 (#7 and #10 for that matter), No -there is no ´proper´ response to the teacher. What you´re proposing is an insubordinate retort.What is the flag to you? Is it just a piece of cloth or does the flag represent something more. Is a marriage ring just a piece of metal or does the ring represent the binding of two people?You may personally assign no value to a material object that you see. But others may do. And when you dismiss or mock the value that other place on an object, do not be surprised by their individual or a collective negative reaction.Consequences? For starters, ask what happened to that retirement home worker who posted a picture of herself flipping off the sign in front of the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier. Click Here if you Like this Comment
Given the totalitarian impulse of the teacher in question, he deserved no respectful reply, but instead deserved an education on REAL American principles.Now does the flag mean something more to me? Yes, it does -- but is my allegiance to the piece of cloth or to the country and the values contained in the Constitution. I gladly pledge allegiance to them -- but not to the symbol.And to take your wedding ring analogy -- my vows are to my God and my wife, not to the piece of metal. Indeed, I grew up in a household where my father NEVER wore a wedding ring -- but where there was never any doubt as to his devotion to my mother and to we boys. Click Here if you Like this Comment
By the way -- I don´t dismiss the value you or somebody else may place in that piece of cloth (which is apparently superior to the value you place on the Constitution). But you have no right to force your value system on to me -- and the school (and in the example I responded to, the teacher) has no right to force that value on the student who does not share it. That is settled Constitutional law.By the way, let me offer to you the words of the first of the two cases I cited above -- "If there is any fixed star in our constitutional constellation, it is that no official, high or petty, can prescribe what shall be orthodox in politics, nationalism, religion, or other matters of opinion or force citizens to confess by word or act their faith therein. If there are any circumstances which permit an exception, they do not now occur to us." Click Here if you Like this Comment
Our flag represents freedom,from the first one that was made over two hundred years ago to the millions now made in china . Click Here if you Like this Comment
I don´t know about anyone being a "race hustler" but the truth is that this article is misleading. This is about some kids not wanting to stand or participate in "Lift Every Voice and Sing" (which SOME people call the Black National Anthem but I don´t believe the song has any race associated with it besides the fact it was written by a black man to be performed for Lincoln´s birthday in 1900 by a segreggated black school). I think it is silly to claim it to be of any particular race. It is a song for all people. But it is NOT the National Anthem and that needs to be cleared up.And no, the kids don´t have a problem with the National Anthem or the Pledge of Allegiance. Click Here if you Like this Comment
While they are at it, why don´t they also ban American History and Civics (Political Science) since it might offend some black, hispanic, muslim, atheist or any other person who hates America.Oh wait, they no longer require govn´t schools to teach this because it offends 1 person in the class.You know what, fat people, people who do not bathe, people who wear pants beneath their posterior, people who were jeggings with cellulite all offend me. Should they be banned?Is that what America is coming to? Where every conceivable sensitivity has to be addressed and resolved. How about growing a spine and stop controlling other people´s lives.

Independence Day, the 4th of July When: July 4th. The fourth of July is the birthday of our nation. Today, we celebrate and enjoy the freedom that comes with the event that made this day so special. Thomas Jefferson, is the author of the Declaration of Independence. He led a committee that crafted the declaration between June 11-28, 1776. Jefferson and other discontented representatives from the thirteen colonies, voted and approved it on July 4, 1776. The document declared freedom for the 13 colonies from British rule. It currently resides in the Exhibition Hall of the National Archive in Washington, D.C. Did you know? The Declaration of Independence was not signed by all representatives until August, 1776. To make it official, John Hancock, President of the Continental Congress signed it. Now, can anyone guess where the saying "put your John Hancock on it" came from!?! Today, we enjoy the benefits of the freedom which the framers signed and ultimately fought for. For us, it is a time for baseball, hot dogs and family picnics. Summer is in full swing and life is good. Fourth of July is not complete without parades and fireworks. Fireworks are enjoyed by almost everyone. You should have your choice of several locations in your area on the Fourth, or even the day before. Many cottage owners on lakes will set out flares along the shore creating a "Ring of Fire". Add to this an abundance of fireworks, and you have quite a display. Happy Birthday, America!!!!!
