From BeerAdvocate magazine Issue #67 (August 2012):
LOOK: Golden, slight haze, incredible mountainous foam head
SMELL: Phenolic (gummy and mildly medicinal), nutty, cilantro, floral, Belgian-y
TASTE: Incredibly smooth and creamy, semi-viscous, fresh, sweet apples, candy, alcohol, cilantro, grass, light cayenne pepperiness, grain, nutty, lingering phenols
Food meets beer. Literally, but no chewing required. Brewed with Dan the Automator (Deltron 3030) using Fuji cider, slow-roasted farro, cayenne and fresh cilantro, and fermented with a Belgian yeast strain. Except for being bit too sweet, this is an incredible display of collaboration and creativity.

Poured into a snifter, the beer was a clear gold color with a medium-sized white head. There was a bit of lace.
The aroma was mostly that of apple cider. There was some peppery spice and some grassy hops.
Mostly cider in the taste. Grassy hops. The pepper showed up late, and left an aftertaste which was not unpleasant.
Crisp and light. An easy drinking beer.

750ml brown bottle with no freshness date
LOOK: Bright yellow color, tiny bubble head, great lacing
SMELL: Asian pear, earthy, grassy, crackers, cider, alcohol, mild spice, Chinese parsley
TASTE: Smooth, slightly bitter, grainy, cider twang, spicy, warming alcohol, lemongrass, rose water, fresh biscuits, very dry finish
Very drinkable, careful now! So many layers to this brew, you think you've tasted it all until you take your next sip and then it peels away another flavor or goes back to one you tasted on your first sip. A lot of fun drinking this beer. Thanks DFH!!

Positive Contact opens with an aroma that bears a distinct apple cider note, but not overly so, the sweet apple blended nicely with fresh wheat, banana, coriander, pepper, lemon, and an almost sarsaparilla earthiness. The fruit notes here are predominant, but underpinned nicely by earthy, spicy tones. Some touches of brown bread, caramel, and brown sugar add further sugary textures, these being darker and a nice counter to the bright banana, apple, and lemon. As a whole, the nose is very interesting, smelling much like a Belgian cut with apple cider, with a few funky earthy notes thrown in for good measure. My only qualm is that one of these funky earthy notes bears, at least to my nose, a strong resemblance to dry dirt, and doesn't mix well with the other fragrances.
On the tongue, the beer opens with strong banana, clove, coriander, and pepper notes, bearing much resemblance in this respect to a Belgian. The differences are made more apparent by the presence of a spicy cayenne pepper burn on the soft tissues (the flavor itself hardly noticeable, however), and a good apple cider undercurrent. It's important to note that the apple cider blends extremely well, and in fact might not be recognized as apple cider were it not printed on the label; it could be easily mistaken for malt-based apple fruit esters. Some brown bread notes lie just below, joined by brown sugar. The aftertaste is a continuation of the main flavors, with a slight increase in the cayenne pepper burn, and lingers for a good while. Very late in the aftertaste, however, a stale apple cider flavor coats the tongue and soft palate, leaving--at least on this reviewer's tongue--a slightly waxy feel. Mouthfeel is medium, and carbonation is medium.
Overall, this is good beer, and represents the masterful blending of strange ingredients typical of Dogfish Head's brews. The results is a nicely balanced beverage that bears only slight reminders of the 9% ABV, and includes an excellent series of fruit and spice flavors. The tail end of the aftertaste is strange and, in some ways, unpleasant, marking one of the beer's few weaknesses. Still, this is worth trying.

Brad Pitt might be an awesome action star in "World War Z," but he says his own hero is fiancee Angelina Jolie.
Angelina, who recently wrote about her preventive double mastectomy for the New York Times, is an inspiration, he says. "The person that you see now is the person that I've always known, and she's heroic and incredibly strong and will attack any problem head-on and make it work," he told E! Online.
Angeline and Brad attended the London premiere of "World War Z" with their sons Pax and Maddox, as well as a concert afterparty by Muse.
Maybe one of the ways Angelina helps Brad out is remembering faces for him. The actor says he's planning to get tested to find out if his forgetfulness is actually a condition called prosopagnosia, or face blindness. His guilt over not remembering people means he rarely goes out — you can't forget someone you never meet. It's sweet that he even feels bad about this. I'd consider it an honor to have Brad Pitt forget my face.

Black and Brown laughter
by Tony Robles
If you're a native San Franciscan, you know the sound. It's as sweet as the smell of BBQ ribs and cornbread and sweet potato pie when the city had soul food restaurants all over with Black folks cooking in black kitchens on black grills with black pots and pans bubbling music in the background, in the foreground – all over.
Imagine that, Black folks cooking soul food in a soul food restaurant – not like what you see when you walk in the city today. The Black and Brown laughter I grew up with was nourishment; it told me where my mother and father had been, where my ancestors had been; it told me who I was.
Black and Brown laughter, like the smell of adobo, tortillas and rice, chow mein – nourishing us and keeping us fighting for things that mattered: our elders and children and community. Black and Brown laughter, the sound of struggle, the sound of strength – the sound of legacy; the laughter of our skin, with the scars and sweat filling the air with the fragrance of our lives.
Black and Brown laughter.
San Francisco, where is the Black and Brown laughter? All I hear is empty chatter, tinny voiced cell phone code, no laughter, no music, no nothing.
But sometimes you hear it. It comes like a friend who knows you, who's glad to see you. And the beautiful sound came to me a couple days ago.
I was on Muni heading home. I was anticipating a surly driver followed by a bus full of empty faces. The driver was a Filipino guy who grew up in the city – a Filipino who'd grown up in the barrio, the ghetto, the neighborhood. How'd I know? It was his voice and the way he tilted his head to the side.
He said four words: How you doin', brother? It was the voice of ungentrified Frisco, the voice of my father, my uncles – the voice of my life. I felt relaxed and alive, like I'd walked into my grandma's old living room. He drove several blocks before coming to a stop. He rose from his seat to make way for the relief driver.
The relief guy got on and the switch took place. It was an African-American brother, from the city too – I could tell by his voice, his laughter. The two drivers talked to each other, laughter of Black and Brown intertwined and beautiful.
How you doin', brother?
It was voices saying, "You ain't right, man" and "All right now" and "Man … you late again … What you doin', starin' at all the girls?" And the men looked at me and I said, "No, the brother was on top of it … he wasn't lollygaggin'… fo' real."
And they laughed, their laughter drawing me in. I felt at home in a city that's feeling less like home.

If it feels less like home…then it's a time for change. A time to grow up, a time to move on, a time to become a man…a man of change for the betterment of his community, a man of change for the betterment of his country, a man of change for the betterment of his family! 0r you can stay where you are stuck in the past, stuck with no future, stuck with no hope.↓
With no past, you have no future. I'm not sure what this has to do with being a man, unless you're looking to join the police force.↓
Brian Lawson
James you might not have read what I wrote down and you failed to understand what I was saying. If you're asking me all I got out of it is "A time to grow up, a time to move on, a time to become a man" then you're obviously stuck on something other than what I got out of the article.
Your second failure is when you "assumed" that I said to forget your past…no where did I say that, but you got stuck on it. But that's ok since I already know a man that has no past will fail in his future. But what I was saying was a man that is "STUCK" in his past will not have a future, because he is stuck in his past, yes??????
And your third failure, is not understanding that this article is about a man stuck in his past and longing for it…that's what I got out it! Not sure what the "unless you're looking to join the police force" has to do with anything, unless that's your feeble attempt at sarcasm. If that's so, then you failed a fourth time.↓
Brian Lawson
Now you "Failed" again…"You" are an "Epic Failure" and assumed again!!! Nuff said can't argue with someone that assumes, since they can never get it right.↓

CANCUN, Mexico -- It is now just days until the so-called "Mayan apocalypse."
So maybe it's not surprising that a replica of the Mayan calendar is proving to be a huge draw for a newly opened Mayan museum.
According to the folks at the museum, the carving's true message may come as a relief for many visitors.
The carved slab of rock said to contain the prediction of world ending is one of three pieces discovered in a quarry.
Experts know the stela was one of six originally, but three pieces are still missing and may have been destroyed in the quarry.
For a while, the museum can guarantee one attraction will remain the center of attention. After December 22, Cancun visitors may go back to zip-lines and snorkeling.

The fact there are so many college basketball teams makes Stat Attack's newest release a bit of an engineering marvel, as the program allows you to see how all the teams fare in various situations of your choosing.
There's a good reason why many serious bettors look to Stat Attack as a major tool in their college basketball handicapping process and they'll certainly be pleased with the latest release.
Stat Attack Regular Version
or straight up.
You can also do searches and see results based on various lines or totals and how teams and/or coaches do in different situations.
You can also perform searches using a combination of factors. A quick search to see how totals have fared in games played in elevations of over 2,000 feet with a posted over/under of less than 125, shows they were 26-18-2 (59.1%) to the over last year.
As I've stated in the past, the Regular version of Stat Attack's college basketball programs are an absolute steal at $69.95. You would pay more than that for just the logs of the past 22 seasons in Excel format.
Stat Attack Gold Version
The Gold version allows you to do a search on just the current season to see how previous trends are holding up. In the example mentioned above regarding totals of less than 125 played in elevations of 2,000 feet, we'd see there has been just one game that fits that criteria so far this season, the Dec. 5 game between USC and New Mexico.
I recall seeing several sports services on the under 124.5, mentioning last year's 44-41 game between the two teams, but Stat Attack users probably weren't all that surprised to see the final score being 75-67.
The Gold version is a great buy at $159.95.
Stat Attack Platinum Version
If you want to know which teams are doing best as favorites or underdogs for the current year, Stat Attack will let you know, as well as let you know which teams are doing the worst.
Doing an "All Teams" search in college basketball is a bit different than doing one in other sports because of the number of teams involved. It's natural that it will take longer, but one thing I did find is that the speed of your search is influenced by your computer. My newer laptop performs searches three times faster than my trusty eight-year-old desktop.
There are several features built into the "All Teams" search for college basketball that are especially nice. The first is a status bar that tells you how far along the search is.
The second is that you can perform "All Team" searches on specific conferences or just the Power Conferences (Majors) or just the Mid-Majors, which will cut down your research time greatly. The folks at Stat Attack realize that not every basketball bettor cares about Texas-Arlington, Sam Houston State and the other teams in the Southland Conference and give you different options when it comes to searches.
The Platinum version is a great investment at $219.95.
Stat Attack in Action
I frequently mention that many of the systems I write about are a direct result of my research with the Stat Attack line of programs and I will usually include something I've discovered in each review. But I'm only one person and just think of how many nuggets that could possibly be uncovered if you were searching, as well. If you enjoy reading the systems and methods on this site, you'll really love owning the program yourself and being able to do your own checking.

Despite what the rest of the losers here have said, this is a brilliant album. It's pure grind/death and it shreds. With gurgling vocals, upbeat punkish tempos, and heavy riffs as weighty as shrapnel, this is one of the band's best albums. This, Heartwork, Symphonies, and Necroticism are what made this band the gods they were. I wish they'd reunite.
Metal Album Reviews[RSS]
While the songs on Carcass' first release are an often brilliant mixture of caffeine-addled grind and death-metal, it's usually difficult to tell because of the horrible, microphone-in-a-trashcan production. I would recommend the far superior and better-produced "Symphonies of Sickness" to new Carcass initiates. I have the original CD release of "Symphonies" that contains "Reek" (Along with the autopsy-collage album cover) and the difference in production between the two is like night and day. A.C. have used a similar-sounding production style on a few of their releases, akin to being stuck under three feet of sludge while the band plays above you. In A.C.'s case it just seems to be a parody. It's a tragedy for Carcass fans that this material was produced so poorly. I'd welcome a remaster with open arms, in this case it just might be a lost cause.
This cd is the one which invented the goregrind subgenre.The album artwork sickened me in a way that no other death band has ever done.A truly ferocious metal masterpiece is the only thing that could describe these guys.If you could get past the bad production then you will realize that this is a great album.The songs are fast and in your face brutal.The vocals are just insane and you will find hundreds of bands which try to recreate them.I deeply miss them not being in the scene any longer.Best wishes go out to all the band members and especially to ken owen who is recovering from being ill.GO OUT AND GET THIS YOU SICK FREAKS!!!
This is the first album of one of the most important death-metal bands. Carcass can be consider as the inventors, with this album, of the forensic, gore, medical and autopsies lyrics; and add the collages of rotten limbs, tongues, heads and decaying corpses on the covers of the first two albums. You can find on "Reek…" %100 pure grindcore. This album has 22 songs in 29 minutes, and you have to listen to it a couple of times to make a difference between one song and another. Well, grindcore is a style that is recognized not for the musical skills or for being technical. Fast-blazing drums, gutural voices, and a guitar that sounds like Tv with no signal(SSSHHH). And to all these, I have to mention the horrible production, that doesn't help. But the gore atmosphere and lyrics will make you smile. I bought this record after "Heartwork", and "Necroticism…", and it took me a long time to digest. Now I play it on and on. Anyway, for grindcore fans(sick people) and REALLY Carcass' fans.
This is the first and best release from those lovable vegan peace-punks; Carcass. In my opinion it is the most intense grindcore album ever made. By the way, early Carcass such as this is not death metal-it's grindcore which makes it more akin to punk, hardcore, and crust. In fact members of Carcass were in some of the pioneering bands that transformed dispunk and crust into grindcore. The apparent relation between grind and death is really an afterthough- a sort of parallel evolution between punk and metal(with some crossover influence of course especially in the late 80's early 90's. The raw lo-fi production just makes this album all that more punk. with this album Carcass set the bar.

Babywearing SafetyIs Babywearing Safe?
When done properly, carrying a baby in a soft baby carrier can be safer than carrying a baby in your arms. Your carrier doesnt have muscles that get tired, and your carrier doesnt have arms that reflexively reach out to balance you or catch you when you fall. But, as with anything concerning babies, good safety practices are of paramount importance. This brochure has many safety tips, but no set of guidelines can anticipate every circumstance. You are responsible for your childs safety as well as your own.
Whatever carrier you choose, learn to use it properly, and always keep safety in mind.
A Few ABSOLUTE RULES
1. Make sure your baby can breathe. Baby carriers allow parents to be hands-free to do other things but you must always remain active in caring for your child. No baby carrier can ensure that your baby always has an open airway; thats your job.
a. Never allow a baby to be carried, held, or placed in such a way that his chin is curled against his chest. This rule applies to babies being held in arms, in baby carriers, in infant car seats, or in any other kind of seat or situation. This position can restrict the babys ability to breathe. Newborns lack the muscle control to open their airways. They need good back support in carriers so that they dont slump into the chin-to-chest position.
b. Never allow a babys head and face to be covered with fabric. Covering a babys head and face can cause her to rebreathe the same air, which is a dangerous situation. Also, covering her head and face keeps you from being able to check on her. Always make sure your baby has plenty of airflow. Check on her frequently.
2. Never jog, run, jump on a trampoline, or do any other activity that subjects your baby to similar shaking or bouncing motion. This motion can do damage to the babys neck, spine and/or brain, explains the American Chiropractic Association.
3. Never use a baby carrier when riding in a car. Soft baby carriers provide none of the protection that car seats provide.
4. Use only carriers that are appropriate for your babys age and weight. For example, frame backpacks can be useful for hiking with older babies and toddlers but arent appropriate for babies who cant sit unassisted for extended periods. Front packs usually have a weight range of 8 to 20 pounds; smaller babies may slip out of the carrier, and larger babies will almost certainly cause back discomfort for the person using the carrier.
A Few Guidelines for Everyday Safety
1. Inspect your carrier regularly to ensure it is sound. Check the fabric, seams, and any buckles or other fasteners. Do this every time you use it to avoid complacency. Dont use a carrier unless it is structurally sound.
2. When using carriers out and about, check that your baby is secure by using reflective surfaces such as car or store windows as mirrors, by double checking the babys position with your hands, or by enlisting the help of another set of eyes.
3. If you shouldnt do it while pregnant because of an enhanced risk of falls, you shouldnt do it while carrying a baby. For example, your risk of falling increases when you climb a ladder, ride a horse, ride a bicycle, or go skating. Your risk of falling also increases on slippery surfaces like the ones you encounter when you go bowling, sailing, or spelunking. When a baby is in his mothers womb, he has built-in protection, but a baby in arms or in a carrier does not have that protection.
4. If you should wear protective gear while doing an activity, you shouldnt do it while carrying a baby. Baby carriers do not provide hearing protection, eye protection, protection from projectiles such as rocks flung from a lawn mower, protection from fumes or dust such as occur during lawn mowing and some household cleaning tasks, or protection from falls.
5. Protect your baby from the elements. Little limbs and heads may need sun protection. Dont dress your baby too warmly in the summer, and dont use a baby carrier under circumstances that could cause the baby to suffer heat stress. Dont let your baby get too cold in the winter. (There are some excellent coats and ponchos designed especially for use with baby carriers, and you can also improvise or make your own.)
6. Be aware of what your baby can reach. In particular, be aware that a baby on your back can reach things you cant see.
7. Dont put loose items in the carrier with your baby that can be choking hazards, that can poke your baby, or that can cover your babys face.
8. Other Things to Consider: Carrying a baby in arms or in a carrier is a task for a responsible adult who can assess risk in a mature way. Here are some things to consider about specific activities.
Cooking. Carrying a baby while cooking subjects the baby to an enhanced risk of burns. A baby in arms or in a carrier is at stovetop height, and burns can occur. Reaching into a hot oven while carrying a baby similarly puts the baby at risk for burns.
Boating. While it might seem more secure to use a baby carrier to board a small boat than to carry a baby in arms, the safer practice is to have the baby wear a personal flotation device. Personal flotation devices are generally not compatible with baby carriers. Moreover, if you fell into the water, having your baby securely held to your body by a baby carrier would be a grave danger.
Safety Guidelines for Learning New Carries
Most people easily learn front or hip carries, but when learning these carries you should still support your baby with your arm until you are confident that your baby is securely held in the carrier. Back carries are more challenging, but the reward is tremendous liberation and, for heavier babies and toddlers, greater comfort for the person carrying the child. These guidelines apply to all carries but are particularly important when learning back carries:
1. Practice with a doll or teddy first. Understanding the instructions with your mind is just the first step; your body needs to understand them as well. Doing a few dry runs will help you build the muscle memory for doing a particular carry.
2. It is best to try a new carry with your baby when you are both well rested and generally content.
3. Use a spotter but only another adult who accepts the responsibility of keeping your baby from falling. The spotter must be able to catch the baby at any instant if he or she should start to fall.
4. Use a mirror.
5. Start low. Most carries can be accomplished while sitting on the floor. As you build muscle memory and confidence, you can move up, next lifting your baby onto your body from a bed or chair.

The water that is used initially to fill a hot water heating system contains dissolved air. Make-up water added at a later time will similarly have a high air content. Heating this water releases the air and permits it to be circulated in the system, which must be vented. The purpose of an Air Purger is to continuously separate and collect any air from the water as it circulates so that it may be vented automatically by a float air vent without the necessity for frequent manual venting.

For thousands of years, people have used fragrant flowers, plants, and herbs as incense. Using smoke to send prayers out to the gods is one of the oldest known forms of ceremony. From the censers of the Catholic church to the Pagan bonfire rituals, incense is a powerful way to let the intent of mankind be known to the gods and the universe. You can make your own quite easily, using blends of herbs, flowers, wood bark, resins, and berries. Learn how to make your own incense by following our simple instructions, and using our easy-to-blend recipe ideas to celebrate the changing seasons.
Introduction to Incense
You can buy commercially produced incense sticks and cones just about anywhere, and they're not that expensive. However, they're made with synthetic ingredients, and therefore have little to no magical value. While they're nice to burn, and certainly smell lovely, they serve little purpose in a ritual setting. Learn abou the historical use of incense, as well as how you can blend your own combinations of herbs, flowers, and more to create lovely scents of your own for ritual use.
Incense, Asthma and Allergies
Full Moon Incense
Samhain Spirit Incense
Winter Nights Yule Incense
Imbolc Incense
When Imbolc rolls around, we've been cooped up in the house for a couple of months, and although we know spring is around the corner, it's not quite close enough for us to get out and enjoy just yet. Make up a batch of Imbolc incense that combines the scents of the season with the anticipation of the warmer weather to come.
Beltane Fire Incense
At Beltane, spring is beginning to get seriously underway. Gardens are being planted, sprouts are beginning to appear, and the earth is returning to life once again. This time of year is associated with fertility, thanks to the greening of the land, and with fire. A few fire-associated herbs can be blended together to make the perfect Beltane incense. Use it during rituals and ceremonies, or burn it for workings related to fertility and growth.
Summer of Love Incense Blend
Lammas Rebirth Incense
By the time Lammas rolls around, it's usually pretty hot. In some parts of the world, gardens are beginning to dry out, and the earth has gone from soft and pliable to dry and cracked. Use this incense blend to celebrate the beginning of the harvest. We're thankful for the foods we've grown, and for the bounty of the earth, and the knowledge that we'll have enough to eat through the coming winter months.
Mabon Harvest Incense
To make your a blend of incense for Mabon, the autumn equinox, use scents that bring to mind the fall season, and the second harvest of the year. It's a time to celebrate the season of balance and harmony, as well as the gratitude and thanksgiving of the harvest season.

Savor the Season with a Picnic of Good Books

Alan Cheuse
Which metaphor can best describe what we'll do this summer with the books piling up on our desks, or growing into small mountains on the floor?
As a writer, I should (I hope) be able to find the right image for that enterprise. Is it a journey we'll take into fictional worlds? An adventure into the lives of other minds? A meditation on various representations of reality? All of these at once?
Before we had books, we in the West lived in a world of oral poetry. At seasonal intervals in the year, audiences listened to the chanting of poets who spoke epic lines about all the things they believed to be true: gods and monsters and the human beings in between. Similes illustrated the hidden connections between, for example, the Iliad's Greek soldiers and the sea: They cheered "like waves/ on some high headland when south winds hurl them/ against a crag that the billows batter/ ceaselessly from one side or another."
Soldiers cheering, like waves hurled against rocks? The poets chanted it, and a new way of thinking was born. Now, thousands of years later, we still employ language in that same poetic fashion, linking seemingly dissimilar things.
So, back to the question. How to describe a selection of the season's best books, along with some literary classics? My list is not as broad in its offerings as a smorgasbord, but it might be a summer picnic with a number of good things to taste and savor... or perhaps a mix of old wine and new?
But Wait, There's More...For Web readers, here are two extra titles worthy of a read (or a listen).
Best American Fantasy by Jeff VanderMeer and Ann VanderMeer, paperback, 396 pagesI've always been a hard-core science-fiction reader, eschewing fantasy. But some fine writers have recently turned up working in fantasy and have softened my objections to the genre, among them Kevin Brockmeier, Tony D'Souza, Robin Hemley, Brian Evenson and Kelly Link. You'll find them in this collection, the first in a new series (read a passage from Kelly Link's story set in the land of Oz).
A Feast, to Start
Tales of Chekhov, by Anton Chekhov, translated by Constance Garnett, paperback, boxed setYou might consider this first recommendation a moveable feast: all 200 of Anton Chekhov's stories in a 13-volume boxed set (read and hear a passage from Chekov's "The Lady with the Dog"). Chekhov's stories contain just about every nuance and turn of the modern human heart and soul, offering countless hours of splendid short fiction by the father of the modern story. Richard Ford, one of our own masters of the short story, wrote the introduction (read an excerpt). Read these Chekhov stories, Ford tells us, "for pleasure, first, and do not read them fast. The more you linger, the more you reread, the more you'll experience and feel addressed by this great genius...."
Revisiting John Gardner
The Sunlight Dialogues by John Gardner, paperback, 736 pagesOne of my favorite reprints of the year from an American writer is the late John Gardner's signature 1972 novel, the upstate New York epic The Sunlight Dialogues (hear Gardner's son read from his father's novel). The first time I read it, it bowled me over: what a dramatic encounter between modern life and ancient mythology, as Gardner tries to bring to light some of the hidden mysteries of everyday existence. Since his death in 1982 at age 49, Gardner has mainly been represented by his books about the art of writing. It's about time that people turn back and take a look at the accomplished art of his own fiction.
A Beach-Shack Love Story
The Maytrees: A Novel by Annie Dillard, hardcover, 224 pagesFrom the summer crop of new fiction, I suggest picking up Annie Dillard's first novel in many, many years (it's actually only the second novel she's ever published). Dillard, who won a Pulitzer Prize in 1975 for Pilgrim at Tinker Creek, has been known to American readers for decades as the author of moving and powerful nonfiction. In The Maytrees, Dillard has written an elegant and, as we might expect from this brilliant and unusual stylist, quirky philosophy-minded beach-shack love story set on Cape Cod beginning in the 1940s. Between the dunes and the star-splashed sky above, The Maytrees swells with beautiful images, of the land, the sea and the constellations (Dillard reads a passage for us, from her cabin in southwest Virginia's Blue Ridge Mountains).
Love and Death in South Africa
The Story of the Cannibal Woman by Maryse Conde, translated by Richard PhilcoxMore of love and death lies in a story deeply accentuated by the sharp feelings and sharp mind of the main character, and by the setting. Maryse Conde's elegant and musically told novel, The Story of the Cannibal Woman, follows Roselie Thibaudin, a Caribbean woman, painter and medium. Thibaudin is widowed in Cape Town after the murder of her husband, and left to figure out her life in a troubled city. Conde's husband, translator Richard Philcox, turned this novel, originally written in French, into one of the liveliest and loveliest translations of the year (hear Philcox read from his wife's novel).
Changing Idaho Skies
Five Skies by Ron Carlson, hardcover, 256 pagesShort story writer Ron Carlson's first novel in many years, Five Skies, finds men at work — and men working out their deepest hopes and sorrows, beneath the constantly changing and always astonishing Idaho skies (hear Ron Carlson read from Five Skies). It's a fine book about fathers and sons, troubled brothers, lost wives — a deep portrait of three construction workers in the wilds of Idaho during a pivotal summer for them all.
The Pushcart Book of Poetry edited by Joan Murray, hardcover, 275 pagesFiction, fiction, more fiction — I can never recommend enough of it! But there's poetry, too, at my summer picnic. In The Pushcart Book of Poetry, editor Joan Murray culls from 30 years' worth of the annual Pushcart Prize volumes lovely work by some of the most remarkable poets writing today — Adrienne Rich, Seamus Heaney, C.K. Williams, Sharon Olds, the late Stanley Kunitz, William Stafford, Aga Shahid Ali, Li-Young Lee, Lucille Clifton and Philip Levine, among many others. Jane Hirschfield's poem "Red Berries" serves up one striking metaphor after another (you can hear her read it here).
One More for the Road
Selected Shorts: Travel Tales, three CDsAnd we can add some delicious nonfiction to our picnic spread, from the Selected Shorts CD series. Travel Tales includes stories by Nadine Gordimer, Max Steele, and an essay titled "Goodbye to All That" by Joan Didion (read by actress Mia Dillon), in which Didion tells us about her arrival in New York after putting California behind her for the first time.
Hello Again, and Adieu...
Farewell Summer: A Novel, by Ray Bradbury, hardcover, 224 pagesIt couldn't be summer for me without recollections of reading Ray Bradbury when I was a kid. But I've never said goodbye to his work. The sequel to his much-beloved novel Dandelion Wine came out this past autumn: Hear Bradbury read an excerpt. Of this special time of year Bradbury writes: "There are those days which seem a taking in of breath, which, held, suspends the whole earth in its waiting. Some summers refuse to end." Think of the reading we could do in a summer like that, a summer that refused to end. And what a metaphor!

Note: There is language in this excerpt some readers may find offensive.
His watchmen are blind: they are all ignorant, they are all dumb dogs, they cannot bark.
-Isaiah 56:10
In late August, 1966, the city jail in Batavia, New York, held four regular prisoners, that is, four prisoners who were being kept on something more than an overnight basis. Three had been bound over for trial; the fourth was being held, by order of the court, until the County could administer a psychiatric examination. The identity of this fourth prisoner was not yet known. He seemed to be about forty. He'd been arrested on August 23rd for painting the word love in large, white, official-looking letters across two lanes of Oak Street, just short of the New York State Thruway. As the police were in the act of arresting him he had managed to burn all the papers in his billfold (dancing up and down, shaking like a leaf), and he refused to say now a halfway sensible word about himself, except that he was "an anarchist, a student." His face was slightly disfigured by what looked like a phosphor burn — the kind men get in wars. Whether he was actually a student (he was an anarchist, all right) there was no way of telling. He seemed too old for that, and there was no college in Batavia; but the town was not large and they knew he was not from there. There were of course plenty of colleges elsewhere in Western New York, and there was always the possibility that he'd come from someplace far away. The Chief of Police — it was then Fred Clumly — would sit in his office in front of the cellblock and talk about it with whoever happened to be there — one of his men or Judge Sam White or May Dance from Probation. "I think he's from California," Clumly would say. But he wouldn't say why. "It's the way he talks," he would explain, squinting, sitting with his bare white elbows planted on the desk like trees. Clumly's whole body was creased and white and completely hairless. He'd had a disease when he was in the Navy, years ago. Aside from the whiteness and the hairlessness, his only remarkable features were his large nose, which was like a mole's, and his teeth, which were strikingly white and without a flaw. The whiteness, the hairlessness, the oversized nose all gave him the look of a philosopher pale from too much reading, or a man who has slept three nights in the belly of a whale.
It was of course not true that the prisoner's way of talking was noticeably Californian. But Clumly hated California, or anyway felt alarmed by it. He would sit with his Look magazine, at home in his livingroom, squinting irascibly, fascinated, at the blurry color photograph of a waitress with breasts completely bare, smiling, standing in what looked like a kind of cardboard window, holding out a coffee-pot to Clumly. Clumly's wife was a blind woman with bright glass eyes and small, pinched features and a body as white as his own. Her small shoulders sagged and her neck was long, so that her head seemed to sway above her like a hairy sunflower. He minded the way she filled her teacup, one finger over the rim to watch the level, and he minded the way she talked to herself perpetually, going about the house with her lips moving as though she were some kind of old-fashioned priestess forever at her prayers, or insane. Also, she whined. But Clumly was not bitter. "Nobody's life is perfect," he sometimes said to himself, which was true.
"Also," he said to Mickey Salvador, the new man, "what makes me think California is that beard."
"Like the riots," Salvador said.
"That's it," Clumly said. "You ever see a beard like that around Batavia?"
"Only Old Man Hoyt," Salvador said.
"And Walazynski."
"Correct," Clumly said. It was all coming clearer in his mind.
"And that Russian guy." Salvador tugged at his collar and stretched his neck, thinking. "Brotski, the one that sells Watchtower." He laughed. "With the leather pants."
Clumly scowled, and Salvador stopped laughing.
"I was out to L.A. once myself," Salvador said. "I wish to hell I'd got up to San Francisco."
A little daintily, Clumly picked up the half-smoked cigar from his ashtray, pressed the end firm, and lit it.
Salvador said, "My brother Jimmy had a beard once. It came in red. Jesus to God."
But Clumly was shaking his head, gloomy. "San Francisco," he said. "What's this country coming to?"
"I guess they all got beards in Vietnam there. But I guess that's different. My old lady's got a mustache. Shit, my old lady got hair all over her, just like a monkey." Salvador looked thoughtful.
"California," Clumly said solemnly. "That's what he'll be." But on his hands, where the flesh had not been damaged, the prisoner had no tan, and that was strange. He had large white hands, like those in pictures of King David in the Bible. The tip of the cigar was sharp and acid on Clumly's lip and he thought again of quitting, but he knew he wouldn't. It passed through his mind that there was a beach somewhere in California where there was a car, a 1935 model, he couldn't remember what make it was, and inside the car a couple of lovers made out of old wire in the back seat, and some ladies' underpants. It was supposed to be an art work. Clumly had used it in a speech to the Rotary once. A sign of the times. "That's it," he said. "That's where he's from all right."
"Monkeys," Salvador said. "Shoo!"
That night Chief Clumly stood for a long time at the door of the cellblock looking at the scarred and bearded prisoner. Then he went out to his car and sat there awhile, brooding, half-listening to the radio, and then he drove home, shaking his head, thinking. He was 64, and he'd lived in Batavia his whole life, except for the three years he'd spent in the Navy, and half of that he'd spent staring at a hospital wall down in Texas.
"It's a funny business," he said aloud, above the noise of the police radio. He searched for words, squinting into the half-dark of the treelined street. (He was driving down North Lyon now, past tall, narrow, two-story houses with porches that went the full width of each house, old latticework at each end of the porches, and here and there a bike leaned up against the steps. Even with their lights on, the houses looked abandoned, like habitations depopulated by plague. You had a feeling there would be dragons in the cellars, and upstairs, owls. The curtains in the livingroom windows were drawn, and there was no one out, not a car on the street except his own. No light showed but the incorporeal glow of television sets. On some of the lawns there were bushy evergreens, and yet he could remember when all this was new, the lawns plain and bare, the trees along the sidewalks all small and straight and as self-conscious looking as the new, white houses, now gray or dark green or fading yellow. He could remember when the evergreens were six feet tall, full of colored lights at Christmas, and the snow on the lawns reflected the light, pale blue and yellow and pink. He'd driven a Wonder Bakery truck in those days — Good Bread for Six Reasons — and before that he'd been the Watkins man — panaceas and potions — for the Indian Reservation.) But no words came, only the light of a cat's eyes beside the curb. At LaCrosse he slowed almost to a stop and turned. The houses were older, even taller here, like old-time castles. They stood in the cool, cavernous gaps between oak trees a century old. He went up the gravel driveway to where his garage sat half-bidden under burnt-out lilacs and surrounded by high weeds. In the glow of the headlights, the weeds looked chalky white and vaguely reminded him of something. It was as if he expected something terrible to come out from their scratchy, bone-dry-looking obscurity — a leopard, say, or a lion, or the mastiff bitch that belonged to the Caldwells next door. But nothing came, and only the deepest, most barbaric and philosophical part of Chief Clumly's mind had for a moment slipped into expectancy. He put the car away, locked the garage, and walked around to the front of the house for the paper. It took him a while to find it. The trees blocked the light from the streetlamp, and as usual, there were no lights on in the house. He'd told her and told her about that. He found the paper by the side of the porch steps, almost under them, where you'd swear the little devil could never have put it except on purpose. Then, very slowly, weary all at once, he went in, unfolding the paper as he went. "Funny business," he said again thoughtfully, as he locked the front door behind him. He could hear her in the kitchen. The house smelled of stew with cabbage in it.
"Is that you, Fred?" she whined.
He held his nose lightly with his left hand and thought, as he'd occasionally thought before, how weird it would be if it were not him but some stranger, some lunatic escaped from the hospital up in Buffalo. The man would stand smiling, not answering, his glistening eyes bugging out like a toad's, surprised at the sound of a voice in the unlighted house, and after a moment she would appear in the near-darkness at the diningroom door, her high, chinless head alert and listening, white as death.
"Fred?" she called again, "is that you, Fred?"
"Just me," Clumly said, calm. He snapped on the lights.
He sat picking at his food, across from her, saying nothing while he ate, as usual. If there were hairs in the stew, he did not notice. Years ago — so long ago he could hardly remember it — he'd said something to her once about a hair in some food, and it had set off a terrible scene. She'd cried and cried, and she'd locked herself in the bathroom and said she was going to kill herself. "I'll cut my throat with a razorblade," she said. "Where are the razorblades?" And he'd stood bent over outside the bathroom door calling to her through the keyhole, begging her not to; he'd even sobbed, but purposely, hoping to persuade her, not really from grief. She had complained that he didn't love her, she was a burden to the world; and even as he reasoned and pleaded with her Clumly had realized, calmly, sensibly, that all she said was, well, sad but true. But in the same rush of clear-headed detachment he had recognized, like Jacob of old when he found he'd got Leah, whose arms were like sticks and whose mouth was as flat as a salamander's, that he'd have to be a monster to tell her the truth. What would the poor woman do, no beauty any more, without a skill or a talent in the world? He'd made a mistake in marrying her, one he might never have made if he'd been a few years older when they met, but his mistake, nevertheless. A mistake he was stuck with.
He'd been 20 when they met, and she'd been 18. He was in the Navy, just getting his eyes opened. He'd gone to his first house of prostitution when they'd put in at the Virgin Islands, and they all sat in one small room with a radio playing foreign music, three other sailors and himself and the four brown, queerly familyless women (it seemed to him) in their slippery dresses and no underwear, their black hair as slick as silk — all of them drinking sludgy black stuff which smelled like Luden's Cough Syrup, but which they said was rum. He felt caught in an ominous spell. They looked like gypsies with crowns of plastic flowers in their hair. The room smelled rotten, the drink was poison, and touching the woman he had happened to end up with thrilled and repelled him — she was 30 if she was a day. Vockshy, Vasty, her name was. Something. Before long, whether from the poisonous drink or from Presbyterian shame, Clumly was vomiting in the street more violently than he would have thought possible for a human. He had to stand watch bent double the next day, and ever since that night his liver had been bad and whenever he was tired he'd walk slightly bent at the waist. Nevertheless, this is living! he'd thought. "Work like the devil, play like the devil," they said on the ship. Bam. When he went back to the whorehouse, Vockshy or Vasty was "occupied," he had to take a different girl. This queerly upset him. And then, home on leave, he'd found the pale and musing blind girl standing there soft as a flag beside an oak tree with burning green leaves or, rather, the nearly blind girl: at that time she had sight enough to be put in charge of younger children from the Blind School, to lead them around laughing like circus people in time of pestilence, help them with their schoolwork, or, like the eldest orphaned child, punish them when they were bad. They were playing in the shaded hollow below her, and she, standing by the oak tree, was watching and listening and smelling the wind, she said. Her talk was like poetry in those days. She'd grown out of that later, as one does. Her voice was as soft as a southern breeze on the Mediterranean, so soft Clumly had to lean toward her to hear blushing — twisting the sailor's hat in his hands. And so for two weeks they met every day, as if by accident, to walk and talk among the large trees or make pictures in the dirt with sticks or stones, or to listen to the Metropolitan Opera on Saturday afternoon (the thought of her breasts beneath the brassiere and high-collared blouse made him pale), and when he had to leave again she promised she would write. Eventually they'd gotten married. She seemed saintlike to him, and noble as a queen. He felt such an ache of tenderness for her, such reverence, almost, for what he called then her quiet courage, he could hardly sleep nights. He wrote to her constantly, slavishly, after the first two weeks, before he'd even thought about marrying her, and the letters that came to him from her (on pink or blue scalloped paper, awkwardly typed because she couldn't see well enough to read over what she'd written or even make sure what she said made sense) he read over and over...

Excellent dressing, love basil and garlic. This is better than any salad dressing that can be purchased in a store. Stores very well in the fridge. This one's a keeper, will definitely be making again.
Reviewed Jul. 30, 2011
The flavors of this dressing are better after sitting in the fridge 1-2 days. If used the first day, it's too mild, in my opinion. Will definitely make again, as it was easy and I like homemade dressings so much better than store-bought.

There was plenty for the kids to do within the activity clubs and all the staff there were really lovely especially with the younger ones attending.
We had an amazing time, met some new friends from San Diego - who have cruised many times before, and are already in the process of booking their next one!! (lucky - we may have to wait a few years yet).
We had the 11night ultimate caribbean cruise,from Port Everglades,FL stopping at Cozumel, Roatan, Puerto Limo, Panama and Grand Cayman. We were on deck 6 in staterooms 6225 &6227 - which were adjoining rooms - which was great for cruising with the kids. previous reviews have complained about this location in ship - we found it no problem. no noise at all heard. Staterooms are furnished nicely, and with black out curtains that really are black outs!. Our room attendant, was Raymond, who comes from the Philippines. he has a young family at home, so gelled really well with our kids, and did things for them that, in our opinion, were way beyond his call of duty. Nothing was too much trouble - such a nice man.
We had a tour of the Navigational Bridge, courtesy of the very friendly Captain. All very sleek and technical! and so interesting.
We did Select Dining, and mixed that between the Silhoulette, Ocean View (buffet) and speciality restaurants. All were superb. Silhouette - fantastic service & food. I thought we had been dead lucky with our waiters, as they were friendly, and amiable, but then you speak to other guests and it really does seem as though they are ALL like that. We felt we began to know our little team of waiters by the end of the cruise, who tirelessly entertained the children with their funny story's and antics. Cant' say enough about the food - delicious. Ocean View is way more relaxed. you help yourself. kids particularly liked this. Quality still spot-on, with lots of dishes still made fresh, and not standing on hot plates for hours shrivelling up. we did Silk Harvest (not my fav for the food, but husband and one of our friends gave it a big thumbs up), and Murano. Murano - you must eat the Goat cheese souffle and the fillet Mignon. OMG I had gone to Heaven. Service is very attentive, not overbearing, but a more formal approach than the style we enjoyed so much in the silhouette.
There is so much to do; that you just do not have the hours in the day to do it all. We are sun lovers (being from the UK we soak up every ray!), but inside the ship there was a huge itinerary of activities if you don't like being on the open decks. I am slightly regretful that we didn't partake in more, but then we have the great suntans soooo....
I shall probably think of more things to add to this in the comings days.
We are all grinning from ear to ear when we think of our time on the Equinox. I cannot recommend it enough.
We were shadowed by Carnival Cruises for a couple of Ports, and I briefly spoke with guests who were from New Zealand, and had cruised part of their journey with Carnival and then "jumped ship" to Equinox - they told me NO comparison. Equinox blows Carnival Princess out of the water on every aspect!
SO go, enjoy your cruise, we have set a very high bench mark, for all future cruises we'll take, to measure up too.... it simply was the best!

A survey of the largest cities in Colorado and Washington found that K-9 units' responses to legalization measures approved by voters last November vary as much as the breeds of dogs on their teams.
Some police departments won't use animals that were trained to smell marijuana, Fiorillo said, adding that Colorado Springs' K-9 unit will continue to use dogs like Vader based on advice from the local prosecutor.
A month ago, the Colorado District Attorneys' Council started traveling around the state to instruct police officers that a drug-sniffing dog reacting to the smell of marijuana isn't enough for probable cause, said Tom Raynes, the council's executive director.
"The issue is they could be hitting on a legal quantity," Raynes said.
In Washington, the state's Association of Prosecuting Attorneys wrote in a Dec. 4 memo that an officer seeking a search warrant based in part on a dog's alert must disclose the canine's previous training.
The memo, written by Pam Loginsky, the association's staff attorney, recommends that search warrants based in part on a canine trained to detect marijuana include when the dog was trained. She also suggested listing what odors it's trained to detect, that it "cannot communicate which of these substances s/he has detected" and that the dog "cannot communicate" the amount of the substance that's present.
The Washington State Patrol won't train new dogs on its canine team to sniff for marijuana, said Bob Calkins, a spokesman.
"In the past it used to be, if a dog alerted, that was probable cause for a search warrant," Calkins said. "Now, along with the dog's alert, we have to have an indication that there's reason to believe it's something other than marijuana."

Asia is the biggest continent on Earth, a darling little gem floating around in space.
Hm, what is Asia? Who's in on it?
China and India are safe bets for Asian nations. Korea, Japan, Thailand, you're fine.
Europe? No. Europe would sort of be on the "Asian continent" if not for those pesky Ural mountains dividing things up in the middle, and then also the whole lineage of kings and wealth and nations and the EU and all that "give me my respect" stuff.
Russia would probably be happiest as its own continent, so for now we'll leave it in "Eurasia" and just hope the natural gas supplies keep flowing.
Pakistan and Afghanistan are dang close to Asia, but politically they show up in "Middle East" news stories an awful lot. Verdict: Eurasia.
I guess we'll actually have to consider everything from Turkey on eastward to be "Eurasian", although the moniker seems overlappitory of the territory.
The Asian economy is now officially raging like a wild furnace of lava that consumes everything in its path. Japan has had the largest individual economy in Asia for decades, but it is forecast that both India and China will outstrip Japan within twenty years.
China is the largest holder of United States debt and is positioned to become the world's next superpower, provided that Godzilla doesn't return and decide to stomp everybody back into the Shang Dynasty.

USDA Hosts First Regional Drought Meeting
USDA will be hosting four regional workshops on drought recovery efforts and assistance available through various resources this month. The first session was held in Omaha yesterday (Tuesday) - and Vilsack says USDA is doing all it can - but key programs traditionally made available in times of disaster are in limbo because Congress allowed them to expire. USDA is partnering with local, state and federal partners to hold the workshops - especially the Department of Commerce, the Small Business Administration and the Federal Emergency Management Agency. Acting Assistant Secretary of Commerce for Economic Development Matt Erskine says these meetings offer an opportunity to provide detailed information on existing federal resources to support local initiatives and identify strategies for long-term solutions. The next meeting - on October 15th - will be held at the Colorado State Fairgrounds in Pueblo, Colorado. The last two meetings will be October 17th - in Pine Bluff, Arkansas - and the week of October 22nd - in Ohio.

A week after Clint Bowyer's second victory of 2012, the good news continued for the driver and his Michael Waltrip Racing team: MWR announced Peak Motor Oil will be the primary sponsor on Bowyer's No. 15 car for three races per season for the next three years.
"Ever since I made this change to Michael Waltrip, it seems almost daily there is more good news around the corner and this is another example of that," Bowyer said.
Friday's news marks the second time in three weeks MWR has made a major sponsorship announcement. Two weeks ago at Atlanta, the organization made it known Napa Auto Parts would return as the full-time sponsor for Martin Truex Jr.
So why, in a slow economy, are companies drawn to a team which before this season had never made the Chase? In large part, it's due to the gregarious personality of the man whose name is on the company stationary. On that front, Waltrip doesn't try to be someone he's not.
"I always look at it that we're very blessed to race cars," he said. "It is such a privilege. I'm thankful for that opportunity and like people to understand my enthusiasm for the sport. And I've just always been that way.
"It's fun to have cats around me who get that and understand that and appreciate it."

Five people have been charged in an Independence home invasion that left three people dead and a 12-year-old boy critically injured.
Carolos Zambrano Jr., 27, faces nine felony counts, including three first-degree murder charges.
The Jackson County prosecutor's office has also charged 32-year-old Antonio Cervantes III and 33-year-old Kevin M. Finley with first-degree murder and other counts.
Raul Soto, 22, of Kansas City, KS, and Bobbie J. Phillips, 37, of Independence, also face nine felony counts, including three counts of first-degree murder.
The four earlier suspects made their first court appearance Monday and were given time to acquire attorneys, but the judge did not allow bond. Their penalty if convicted includes life without parole or the death penalty.
All five defendants are accused in the Nov. 16 shootings that killed 48-year-old Maria Hernandez; her 20-year-old son, Antonio Hernandez; and Tomas Dominguez, previously identified as Tomas Madrigal. A 12-year-old boy is recovering from critical injuries.
Police said robbery and drugs were the apparent motive.

Obama's Intentions You Ask? It's CRITICAL That You Read About the "CLOWARD-PIVEN STRATEGY"- SCARY for ALL (Both Dems & Repubs)
Original post made by Jean on Jul 9, 2009
Obama adheres to the Saul Alinksy "Rules for Radicals" method of politics, which teaches the dark art of destroying political adversaries. However, that test reveals only one front in the radical left's war against America. The Cloward-Piven Strategy is another method employed by the radical Left to create and manage crisis. This strategy explains Rahm Emanuel's ominous statement, "You never want a serious crisis to go to waste."
The Cloward/Piven Strategy is named after Columbia University sociologist Richard Andrew Cloward and Frances Fox Piven.Their goal is to overthrow capitalism by overwhelming the government bureaucracy with entitlement demands. The created crisis provides the impetus to bring about radical political change.
Rather than placating the poor with government hand-outs, wrote Cloward and Piven, "activists should work to sabotage and destroy the welfare system; the collapse of the welfare state would ignite a political and financial crisis that would rock the nation..."
It is CRITICAL for you to understand the Cloward-Piven Strategy to inform yourself about Obama's real intentions. Here is a link or you can Google "Cloward-Piven Strategy."

Get a grip! Using the Weekly for Radical Right Wing Propaganda is getting old! The site you linked to is about as right wing as it gets. I notices the titles in the archive on that site, and many are right wing conspiracy theory type articles. I will comment on the article, and what apparently you and other radicals believed to be true.
Let's ALL REMEMBER that Bush and Co. took a Country with a SURPLUS and put us into MAJOR DEBT! he was as un transparent as it gets. He controlled the CIA and LIED to get us into a mega trillion dollar, never ending war! The state of the economy and our national debt was through the roof as he left office. Bush did NOTHING except play war games without TAX DOLLARS! There is a poll that someone pointed out here on the Weekly, where the VASY MAJORITY of Americans feel we are less safe as a result of the INVASIONS in Afghanistan and Iraq AND believe that we have accomplished NOTHING being there indefinitely.
I find it so ironic that right wing radicals accuse Obama of ruining the Country, when BUSH already did that! Obama inherited a mess!
We all vote! We voted the House, the Senate and the President in. The majority used to be Republican and they failed miserable. Now the majority is Democratic. Let's wait 4 years and see what the history book say. Some of you act like it's a left wing strategy to purposely run the Country into the ground. Geez!
O.K. I have used enough bandwidth, so I will comment on the article later. Or perhaps WEEKLY IMPOSTER will? :(
on Jul 9, 2009 at 11:04 am
As quoted in another topic area:
"Republicans let's not revise history. The two largest spending era's in US history (using both real and nominal measurements) were initiated using supply side economics - GW and GH respectively. All while shifting tax burdens from the upper down to the middle and upper middle classes."
on Jul 9, 2009 at 11:41 am
This is straight from the Rush Limbaugh show this morning. I heard it myself. Felt like getting a few laughs by listening to right-wing talk radio today, and a listener called in with this information, which someone had told her at a tea party she had attended. Are you seeing the picture?
Obama didn't have to manufacture a national economic crisis - it was already there when he took office.
on Jul 9, 2009 at 11:45 am
This is exactly what is going on and we are getting it Chicago Style as Rahm Emmanuel likes to say. Everyday we are losing more and more to this idiot.
on Jul 9, 2009 at 11:49 am
Your post has so much inelligant information, backed by facts!
NOT! Grow up and get it together!

check your spelling stud! If you want to take someone on please learn how to spell so you do not look like a moron.
on Jul 9, 2009 at 11:52 am
President Obama is hardly an idiot. He is highly intelligent and highly educated. Just because someone's economic philosophy differs from your own doesn't make them an idiot.
on Jul 9, 2009 at 11:53 am
First post, idiot - second post, moron?
You can do better than that.

Let's go,
He may speak well in front of a teleprompter and he may have a good education in community organizing paid for my us but his actions indicate he is an idiot. By the way, he is about 46 or so I believe so if true how does one go that long in life without ever having a job?
on Jul 9, 2009 at 11:58 am
Let's go,
Oh come on not you also as you cannot read either. I was calling Obama and idiot and Jack a moron. I am done and must communication with more brain power than you obviously have. Bye bye
on Jul 9, 2009 at 12:10 pm
The Republican strategy was to tell us all to trust the free market and deregulate. Then when their rich investment banker friends get in trouble, they're happy to embrace $750 million welfare for the wealthiest Wall Street fat cats. So why does a capitalist like Bush/McCain/Palin say "We have to abandon the free market..."? Socialism for the wealthy? Destruction of the middle class?
on Jul 9, 2009 at 12:21 pm
I know who you were calling an idiot and who you were calling a moron. My point was that you seem to be very eager to throw around terms insulting people's intelligence.
And this: "He may speak well in front of a teleprompter and he may have a good education in community organizing paid for my (sic) us but his actions indicate he is an idiot. By the way, he is about 46 or so I believe so if true how does one go that long in life without ever having a job?"
There is not one bit of sense in that statement.
And THIS: "Oh come on not you also as you cannot read either. I was calling Obama and idiot and Jack a moron. I am done and must communication (sic) with more brain power than you obviously have. Bye bye"
You be careful with all that brain power, now...

Can you please stop stealing my material!!! By the way, do know a pharmacy in town with a "liberal" policy toward pill refill?
on Jul 9, 2009 at 2:04 pm
With words in bold-face like SCARY and CRITICAL and CLOWARD, it's OBVIOUS that an INTELLIGENT person wrote this POST! Because intelligent people know that non-thinkers respond to shouting and SCARY words. If you respond to intelligent reasoning and analysis, pass this post by BEFORE YOUR BRAINS ARE SUCKED OUT OF YOUR HEAD!!
on Jul 9, 2009 at 2:57 pm
Check your own grammar and punctuation "genius"!
Your posts as follows:
"Jack,check your spelling stud! If you want to take someone on please learn how to spell so you do not look like a moron."
"He may speak well in front of a teleprompter and he may have a good education in community organizing paid for my us but his actions indicate he is an idiot. By the way, he is about 46 or so I believe so if true how does one go that long in life without ever having a job?"
"Oh come on not you also as you cannot read either. I was calling Obama and idiot and Jack a moron. I am done and must communication with more brain power than you obviously have. Bye bye"
O.K. So, do YOU look or feel like a "moron"?
Thought so "stud"..... Are yo just by chance a conservative?
Never mind, don't answer that. I already know! Can you read yet?
on Jul 9, 2009 at 11:45 pm
I think this country is getting closer to a civil war every day -- very sad. Our enemies the world-over are loving this national meltdown.
on Jul 10, 2009 at 12:55 am
I agree with you. And people say that the folks in the middle east are so fractionated.
What ever happened to the good old days? The CIA and Bush REALLY messed thing up badly! He had the whole county SCARED silly for eight years! His fear tactics were the ONLY reason he got a second term, besides his Lawyers!
Good Grief!

Our schools have failed us.
on Jul 10, 2009 at 9:49 am
Parent of Two is a registered user.
I agree that Bush messed up a lot of stuff. But blaming Bush is soooo 2008. The unfortunate reality is that Obama doesn't seem to have the faintest idea how to fix any of it. In fact, almost all of the steps he's taken or proposed so far, have exacerbated the financial situation and international hotspots.
Bailouts, raised taxes, wild spending, bloated federal programs... not a really well-thought out way to get out of a recession. Pullouts, capitulation, and international apologies... not a really well-thought out way to calm potentially violent dictators and countries.
So yeah, Bush was a disaster aside from slamming the door on international terrorists. One would hope Obama could surpass such a low target, but so far, he's dropped the ball.
on Jul 10, 2009 at 10:18 am
Bushy boy is gone so come up with another excuse. The is the Messiah's baby and he is destroying us.
on Jul 10, 2009 at 12:53 pm
"Bailouts, raised taxes, wild spending, bloated federal programs"
With the exception of raised taxes, that's the same as Bush.
Bush's Bailouts went mainly to the wealthy. Obama's are spread out a little more. Both pretty bad.
But you also left out misguided de-regulation. That's what really pushed the economy over the edge. Not all regulation written 80 years ago was bad. Defining credit default swaps as insurance and immune from "bucket shop" laws created the credit crisis. Thank Phil Gramm for that. But then Bill Clinton signed it into law, so maybe he is more to blame than Bush.
on Jul 10, 2009 at 12:56 pm
Love Palin,
You're a bore. Same old tired and exposed comments from you everytime. Anything novel to contribute or do you just love to see your perspective in print? You should stop watching MS-LSD, aka Obama's propaganda machine.
on Jul 10, 2009 at 1:17 pm
To "Got it"
So are you agreeing or disagreeing that Bush/Palin/McCain are socialists? Maybe you think TARP wasn't socialism? If so, in what way was TARP not socialism?
What does "exposed" comments mean.
on Jul 10, 2009 at 1:39 pm
What I agree with is that you post ridiculous arguments that have no basis in reality.
Let me know when your buzz wears off and I'll define "expose" for you.
on Jul 10, 2009 at 2:15 pm
Typical strategy; when someone makes an argument in favor of the current admistration they are "drinking the koolaid," "Obamabots," watching "MSLSD"...
on Jul 10, 2009 at 3:08 pm
Let's Go -
Good, you got it now! Call it "typical" to try and blow off the point, but it doesn't change it - the current administration IS ridiculous and if you are remotely trying to defend any part of it, you're ridiculous and in need of serious retraining.
on Jul 10, 2009 at 3:13 pm
Got it,
I'm ridiculous? In need of "retraining?" Your comments are rude and only serve to further reduce both the validity of your arguments and the integrity of your position. You are the one trying to blow off the point.
on Jul 10, 2009 at 4:03 pm
I'm sorry, Let's Go, to offend you, but I didn't see a point in your post - any of them. You can demand a response and stomp your foot all you want but it doesn't mean there is one to give you. I guess you want me to lie to you just like the Left does. I won't.
How can you even defend your silly post? Don't liberals call Conservatives out for repeating Rush Limbaugh blindly and doing whatever Fox News says on a hourly basis?
It's pointless to defend my valid point being boiled down to that.
Afterall, that IS what YOU said.
Have a good time.
on Jul 10, 2009 at 4:31 pm
I can't respond to your post because frankly, I don't even understand your point anymore. You just sound really stressed out. Hope the weekend brings some R&R your way.
on Jul 10, 2009 at 9:28 pm
To "Got it",
I was asking about TARP and Sarah Palin. Sarah Palin supported it. That doesn't exactly say a lot for her credibility as a conservative. What is your opinion on TARP? Sarah Palin. Not just for me, there are plenty of other readers who may want to know.
