Why I Donated to Ron Paul Today... and Why You MUST Too!
Today I donated money to a politician for the first time in my life. It was only $100, but I expect that I will donate the maximum $2300 soon. Who was the lucky recipient of my somewhat-hard-earned-cash?
Ron Paul, of course.
Ron Paul is amazing. Unlike every other modern politician I've ever heard of, he is principled in a way that reminds me of the founding fathers. He has his positions and he sticks to them no matter WHAT. He is probably the ONLY person in Congress who has always voted consistently every time.
When he's asked questions he answer THE QUESTION ASKED (unlike every other politician who just says whatever will make them look good), and he does so in a smart way, citing historical examples to back up his points.
Of course... this is only good if he has good positions.
And he does.
He believes in freedom an PERSONAL RESPONSIBILITY. As you know, I love personal responsibility. His idea is to follow the constitution and allow everyone to make their own decisions and face the consquences. For example, he will abolish the IRS and replace it with... NOTHING. We had no income tax before 1913, and even today with our insane budgets, it's only responsible for 1/3 of our income.
We can then spend money on what we WANT to spend it on.
He believes in cutting all the stupid government programs. Medicaid, welfare, etc. Let people KEEP the money they earn and spent it how they want.
He wants to get out of this stupid war we're in and rebuild America's reputation as an awesome country. Right now everyone hates us. I hate the way the country's going so much that I'm LEAVING in two months. If Ron Paul wins I might come back.
He wants to get rid of the federal reserve, which is actually a non-governmental institution. It's privately run, which gives a small group of people tremendous power over our country. Without it we can eliminate inflation.
Anyway... if you want to learn more about him, people have described his positions much better than I ever could. Watch youtube.
Here's the thing...
... He can actually win.
Vegas odds are incredibly accurate. They've never failed to predict a presidential election. Right now Guiliani is at a 33% chance to win. Ron Paul is at 12.5%.
But... a few months ago he was at .5%! Giuliani is just treading water.
People are finally getting sick of the insulting and ridiculous politics that are going on in the country. Everyone who hears about Ron Paul likes him. It's impossible not to because he's so refreshingly honest and SMART. You listen to what he says and it's obvious that he GETS IT.
All he needs now is money to buy media so that people will hear about him. Only 30% of Republicans even know who he is.
Next year you're going to pay a ton of money in taxes... unless Ron Paul wins. If he wins you'll be done with taxes, so think of your donation as a hedge against taxes.
Today (November 5th) many people have agreed to donate money. He's already raised half a million and it's only 4am. The more he raises TODAY the more free press he will get. No other candidate can get support from the people like this. DO IT.

Sorry, read the ethics laws. Benfitting financially based on your elected position, no matter where the payments might come from, is more than likely an ethics violation.<quoted text>
Nasty insinuation you are making, but alas it does not fly.
If Ms. Kohls were taking gratuities from vendors with business before the board and then granting contracts to the vendors your argument would apply.
I do not believe any of these other people around the state who wish to hear what Ms. Kohls has to say about transparency in government, accountability in government, and governmental fiscal responsibility fall into that category.
Come to think of it would appear that the Neighbors for Springboro Schools fell into this trap in that a large majority of its contributions came from businesses who had existing business with the school district or soon hoped to have that business and would benefit from a larger pool of tax money. It was also widely supported by the many of the very teachers who would have stood to gain handsomely from $30,000,000 extra dollars transferred needlessly from the wallets of the taxpayers into the coffers of the school system.
You should report the Neighbors for Springboro Schools group to the ethics commission.
Let me know when you do this and I will provide support for your outrage.
And again, read the ethics laws - teachers, employees of governments, businesses, etc., are permitted to donate their money to any political candidate, PAC, etc., of their choosing. It is protected "speech" under the 1st Amendment last time I checked.

John Keating once suggested to his class of young, impressionable boys that language was not invented, as one of his students timidly suggested to communicate, but rather to woo women. There are plenty of reasons to disagree with this, primarily since my intent in writing this blog is to get words out of my head that seem to need their space and freedom. My wooing days are, for the most part, over now. I do try and keep my poetic license up to date, and I have been known to put a sentence or two together now and again to get the embers of my true love's heart burning. Without the actual heartburn, if possible.
This week at school, I have been attempting to drag poetry from the hearts and minds of third, fourth and fifth graders. When prodded, most every one of them could come up with this chestnut: "Roses are red, violets are blue. Sugar is sweet and so are you." This came after painstakingly working through the mechanics of rhyme. It's not the first letter or sound that matters, it's the last. Even so, many found it perplexing that "good" and "food" were not a rhyming pair. I wrote several examples on the board, but the majority of my students surrendered to the inevitable observation about the colors of various flowers and the relative level of saccharin found in your basic household sweetener.
Maybe what was missing was a muse. Someone for whom they could compose a sonnet, or at least a couplet. Most of the kids made Valentines for their parents. A few for their grandparents. They understood that the limits of their composition would hardly be noticed by this audience. There was one fifth grade boy who kept his work very quietly to himself. He made a very pretty background on which he could place his verse, but was completely stumped when it came time to write. "Mister Caven," he whispered, "what rhymes with 'love?'"
I gave him a flurry of suggestions, not wanting to tip the scales in any one direction: of, glove, dove, above, subversive. I left him to stew and continued on my rounds, watching as the number of red roses and blue violets threatened to dull my senses to the point of paralysis. When I finally returned to my quiet little friend, I saw that he had inscribed the name of one of the girls in his class at the top of his carefully drawn by wholly inaccurate heart. Inside he had written two words: "Love" and "Shove."
"What do you think, Mister Caven?"
I had seen the two of them, the intended recipient of his card and her suitor, racing about the playground in recent weeks, alternately shrieking at one another and then pulling on the other's backpack or colliding as they made their awkward and desperate lunge into line. I told him that I figured he had single-handedly epitomized fifth grade romance. I printed it out for him and wished him luck.

ANDERSON, Ind. —
An Anderson man who was sentenced to 65 years in prison for stabbing a woman to death was denied an appeal Friday.
Eddie Hargrow, 69, and his attorney Christopher Cage claimed Madison Circuit Court 3 Judge Thomas Newman handed down too severe a sentence when he sent Hargrow to prison in July 2012, according to court documents.
Hargrow admitted to murdering Beverly Burnett, 48 on Feb. 4, 2012. State Appellate Judge Paul Mathias upheld Newman's sentence and denied the appeal, claiming Hawgrow's actions "put him in the class of worst possible offenders."
According to the probable cause affidavit, Hargrow told police he visited Burnett at her Anderson house to use cocaine and pay her for oral sex. During their encounter, Hargrow said he believed Burnett was attempting to steal from him, so he grabbed a kitchen knife and stabbed her.
Burnett was transported to St. Vincent's Medical Center where she died.
Hargrow's incarceration at the Madison County Jail raised several issues as he suffers from multiple health conditions and required being connected to a dialysis machine. According to Newman, keeping Hargrow at the jail was becoming expensive so the prosecution allowed him to be released on in-home detention beginning May 30. During that time Hargrow underwent a medical procedure that, had he been incarcerated, the county would have had to cover.
In the appeal, Hargrow and Cage claimed the sentence was inappropriate because of the nature of Hargrow's character.
Mathias cited Hargrow's extensive criminal history and the fact that he stabbed Burnett several times even after the blade broke. Mathias said Hargrow had a violent tendency to harm others.
"The lengthy and serious criminal history depicts a consistent inability to lead a law-abiding life," Mathias wrote in the appeals decision.

Unlike the traditional methods for removal of unwanted body hairs such as waxing, shaving, bleaching, plucking, and tweezing, the services of London laser upper lip hair removal promise to give a long-lasting and effective solution to the individuals. At the time when most of the women are looking for the safe and painless measures to eliminate the unwanted body hairs, Onyx hair removal clinic has been offering the best possible services for eliminating excess of hairs from different body parts. In London, you can observe its popularity as many models and office workers are taking laser hair removal treatments to enhance the beauty of skin.
The laser therapy is a modern and sophisticated method for eliminating the unwanted body hairs. This technology uses the laser light energy that can heat up the hair follicles in order to make them permanently disabled. It burns the hair follicles so that they would not re-grow for the next few months. On the other hand, traditional methods give a temporary solution that simply uproot the hair follicles, it can be very painful and sometimes harmful for the skin.
In the laser hair removal treatment, the pulse of laser is focused over the area of hair follicles and at the same time the surrounding area remains unaffected. The energy produced by laser is adsorbed by the melanin in the hair (melanin is responsible for hair colour). In this way, the energy travels down to the root of hair and heat up the point to keep it inactivated for a long time. In London, laser upper hair removal services are easily available at Onyx where people are treated by laser therapy so they can get rid of unwanted hair problems.
When it comes to the permanent solution for upper lip hair, the laser therapy has undoubtedly become pinnacle. Although the results of laser therapy might be different for different people as per the variety of skin but majority of customers are satisfied with the services of London laser upper lip hair removal. The highly trained technicians at Onyx clinic can treat people coming with unwanted hairs on different body parts. So, have a date with Onyx and find the changes.

ALBANY, GA (WALB) - Every shift of the Albany Police Department will review the Department's procedures for dealing with sensitive information.
The review comes after an officer discarded documents with personal information including social security numbers in a business' dumpster on Dawson Road.
Tuesday Chief Younger said employees are being reminded that anything discarded with personal information should be shredded. He said the department's policy for the discarding of documents will also be reviewed as part of the Albany Police Department's annual review. Twenty-five year old Officer Rodney Brown who's been a part of the police force since 2006 admitted while working the midnight shift he cleaned out his car and threw out the information. Tuesday Chief Younger explained the disciplinary action that could be taken against Brown.
"The disciplinary action could range up to termination based on our policy, but certainly we look at an officer's prior performance, their prior disciplinary record and I'm also considering the recommendation of his commander," said Albany Police Chief James Younger.
Chief Younger couldn't say whether Brown had received prior disciplinary action.

Decarcerate Pennsylvania protested the Graterford Prison expansion on Tuesday, though it was semi-thwarted when members of the Pennsylvania State Police prevented them from walking onto the Graterford complex.
The group had initially , but state police prevented them from making the trek citing safety concerns.
"We prevented them from obstructing the highway – we did it for their safety," said a Trooper. "People are going to start looking at them, and not pay attention to the way they are driving, so it is an issue of safety."
Despite the concerns from police, Decarcerate Pennsylvania member Hakim Ali believes that the police were not acting in the group's best interest.
"Obviously [the police are] not that concerned about our welfare in terms of getting hit by a car," Ali said. "That's like saying we're the most idiotic people in the world, like we would walk in front of cars and get hit. There are ulterior motives to this."
Regardless of motive, the protest carried on and roughly 60 people stood in front of – including several people who biked from the Philadelphia Art Museum – with signs stating "Stop the Prison Expansion," "Education, Not Incarceration" and "No New Prisons, Community Re-Investment."
The most vocal member of the protest was Atiba Kwesi, a former Graterford inmate who was released two and a half years ago.
"I did a lot of time in that spot – unfortunately – and now I have the freedom to be here," said Kwesi, a member of Justice for All and the Public Safety Initiative. "Governor Corbett wants to take money from Philadelphia schools and put it into prisons."
Schools versus prisons were an echoed sentiment amongst many at the protest.
"To me, it's becoming one of the most pressing social issues of our time," said Thomas Dichter, a member of Decarcerate PA. "It's becoming a financial crisis because we can't afford a $400 million prison while we're slashing education; while the Philadelphia school district has dissolved. It's atrocious that the money is being spent expanding a prison system."

Carlisle's Old Town Hall turns into cake!
An edible model of Carlisle's Old Town Hall is going to be preserved, rather than eaten.
It took Lisa Wheatcroft and two friends four days to make the chocolate cake, which closely resembles the real thing.
The sumptuous cake, which is filled vanilla and butter cream, was originally made to be eaten but tourism officials liked it so much they want to put it on permanent display.

Scott Carson went 4-0 as a professional before taking 9 years off and returning in 2010 with a loss. He was tabbed to fight former NCAA football great Herschel Walker in Walkers second ever MMA fight. Walker wasted no time in proving that he is improving as a fighter by dropping Carson twice in the stand-up and controlling the action on the ground.
Carson threw a headkick early and Walker blitzed him with punches, dropping him in the process. Scott looked to lock up a leglock early but Walker improved position and forced Carson to turtle while riding his back. Walker landed punches constantly in this position, eventually forcing Carson to try to scramble back to his feet. As he tried to stand it was a big shot to the chin that dropped him again and forced the referee to call a halt to the bout.
At 48 years old it's unlikely we'll ever see Walker advance to face the best fighters in the world, but watching the development of a fantastic athlete is always fun for fans of mixed martial arts.

Kevin Belingon is one of the most exciting young bantamweights in the world, having beaten nine opponents out of nine since making his mixed martial arts (MMA) debut back in 2007. At ONE FC 3 he is going to have to face up to the consequences of his success when he takes a huge step up in opposition against Japanese leg lock master Masakazu Imanari.
Winning brings a fighter fame and fortune but if he does it too often, sooner or later he is going to find himself facing an opponent he can't defeat because no one in MMA remains unbeaten forever. As he faces better and better opposition the day will probably come when Belingon meets his match, but he believes fervently that it won't be March 31st at the Singapore Indoor Stadium.
"I have fought fighters who are more experienced than me and supposed to be better than me before and I always won, my first fight was against Richard Lasprilla who was the URCC Champion and had never been beaten and I won that. In my fourth fight I beat Justin Cruz who already had 10 wins, I know that Imanari is the toughest opponent I have ever faced but I have been training hard and I believe I can win."
While Belingon has never fought on a show of the size or caliber of ONE FC before, it will not be his first time playing the role of underdog. Few expected him to beat Lasprilla who was 5-0-2 when they fought and a dominant force in Filipino MMA. Getting past 10-2 Justin Cruz was just as impressive an achievement and he has also prevailed against opponents from Thailand, Korea and Mongolia.
None of them have anything like the level of experience of Imanari who is a veteran of 34 fights, the vast majority of them taking place in elite Japanese promotions DEEP, DREAM and PRIDE. He has consistently faced some of the best bantamweights in the world and more often than not he has beaten them.
Belingon has fought in Singapore once before when he took on the then unbeaten Thai prospect Ngoo Ditty in 2010 and you can see footage of that fight here:
Kevin Belingon vs. Ngoo Ditty - Martial Combat (via MrTEAMLAKAY)
Imanari is a BJJ black belt and will be much more of a handful on the ground than Ditty. Not for nothing is he known as the 'master of leg locks' and 16 of his wins have come by way of submission. When it comes to slapping on a heel hook, a knee bar or an achilles lock there are few better in the world but the Tan Lakay fighter says he feels no fear.
"I'm capable of fighting both stand-up and on the ground and I have competed in Wushu Sanda, Kickboxing and BJJ so I'm confident I can avoid the leg locks, I am ready to fight against anyone in my division including Imanari."
Belingon is currently competing at bantamweight although he holds a URCC title in the flyweight division which has an upper limit of 129 lbs. This has led to intense speculation that he could drop down to 125 lbs and potentially join the UFC's newly formed flyweight division.
"I don't cut much weight to make 135 lbs and I think I can cut down to 125 lbs to fight at flyweight if given the chance. ONE FC is the biggest event in Asia and I am proud to represent the Philippines and to fight for this show in front of so many people. If they want me to drop to 125 lbs in the future I will do that."
As if the odds weren't already stacked firmly in his opponent's favour Belingon has also been out of action for an entire year. He had to pull out of a title defence against Jessie Rafols at URCC 20 with an injury and his ONE FC debut was also pushed back from February to March for the same reason.
Imanari has fought no fewer than five times for DREAM in that period taking on some of the toughest fighters in their bantamweight division but Belingon does not believe that being out of action for so long will put him at too much of a disadvantage.
"I still train with my Team Lakay team mates even when I don't have scheduled fights myself because I also help them when they have fights. Even though I haven't been fighting I have been training and sparring with Rey Docyogen and Geje Eustaquio and others and I am always in good shape."
At ONE FC 2 Eustaquio showed off an extremely sophisticated submission defense to defeat BJJ world champion Alex Silva by unanimous decision. If Belingon can avoid the leg locks of Imanari it would be an even more impressive grappling feat and a win would instantly establish him as one of the top 135 lbs fighters in the entire world.
Few people outside the Philippines are expecting the 25 year old to win against a man who is 11 years his senior, has had three times as many fights and consistently faced much higher caliber opposition. The stage is the biggest he has been on and the man standing opposite will be the best he has faced but at ONE FC 3 Belingon is looking to simply do the same thing he always does.

Would larger scale mitigation actions make sense? We're probably not sure yet. But there may be actions that are more cost effective that can help prevent significant amounts of damage, however, that would be worth undertaking.And there we have it. Let's be honest with each other. Here in America, there's no political will to do things (especially expensive things) that look further out than the next election cycle. What's that? Insurance for your giant frickin almost-underwater, or actually below sea level, city that's in a hurricane zone? NOT WORTH IT.

When Principal Michael Ragon starts his day at 6:30 a.m., checking emails, greeting security and custodians, and patrolling the school before the first bell rings at 7:05 a.m., it is the most regimented part of his day. From there, his schedule slowly, and sometimes not so slowly, unravels as he meets with staff and students throughout the day, planning events, disciplining, managing, "things can sometimes change very quickly," he quipped, "but that's what makes the job interesting."
An educator for 39 years, 11 of them in Seaford, Ragon will soon trade in his busy schedule for one filled with family, hobbies and teaching part-time as he begins his . He collects stamps and trains, builds models and is restoring a '67 Camaro. He also is slated to teach two college-level math courses at Pace University in Manhattan.
Recalling his first day in Seaford, he said, "I knew this position was going to be a significant responsibility and task to move a staff in the direction I wanted to go. I am a firm believer in education, and instruction is very important. Education is really the only pathway to a successful life."
With that in mind, Ragon took on a leadership style that was "firm but fair. I allowed staff to grow but realized some staff needed guidance and direction," he said.

Throughout his years in Seaford, his proudest moments have been when a student acknowledges a staff member or even himself, "especially a student who may have had difficulties and made significant improvements in his or her commitment to be successful," he said. "Quantitatively, moving the school into higher levels of achievement, and having more students accepted into more reputable colleges and universities have been proud moments."
Bringing some levity to his day recently was the film club who came in to tape him in a skit they pre-planned.
"They gave me an award for my performance," he said grinning – The Seaford High School Scott Boegle Film Festival Award for Best Faculty Member Performance. "With staff, we have our moments too. They've been 'ranting' about my push to conserve paper, so I jokingly sent a memo on paper about conserving paper; one staff member pasted it to his door," he laughed.
Recognizing the social issues related to today's teens, Ragon addressed them by bringing in outside speakers, initiating new programs and changing protocol. Under his leadership, the Freshman Buddies program was developed by Assistant Principal Carisa Burzynski and staff. The program pairs upperclassman with ninth-graders to help them become acclimated to the high school. Speakers are consistently brought in to discuss bullying and cyber bullying, including well-known speaker John Halligan who lost his son to bullying.
New safety procedures were enacted for students attending proms, which include a mandatory pre-prom meeting and a contract outlining proper behavior at prom that must be signed by students and parents.
"The community is more knowledgeable and committed to addressing the social issues facing students today," he said.
When asked what his legacy would be, Ragon pensively retorted, a continuation of raising student achievement, improving instruction and educating parents and empowering people in the community. Every district is unique to its culture, traditions and history. Seaford is much steeped in tradition. It is very important. There are generations who have raised their families in the district.
Ragon grew up in Glendale, Queens, holds a Bachelors from York CUNY College and a Masters in Math Education and an Administration Certificate from Queens College. He was inspired to become a teacher when he began helping friends with different subjects and found that he enjoyed the environment. He worked in New York City as a math teacher and as an assistant principal and worked in Lindenhurst school District before coming to Seaford. A 33-year resident of Mineola, Ragon is married to wife, Joyce, has two daughters and sons-in-laws, Christina and Chris, and Jennifer and Marty, and one grandson, Martin.

Eve was spotted leaving the Trump Soho Hotel in NYC in a $650 Mackage Liz Down Coat with fur trim, $271 Ash Cool Wedge Sneakers, and a $2,275 Givenchy Medium Antigona Stars Top Handle Bag:
She's sporting a new Cleopatra-esque 'do. What do you think?
A luxe fur trim lends style to her cozy down puffer coat.
Her sold-out bag is from the brand's Fall 2012 collection and is crafted from black and red leather. It features star detailing on the sides, double handles, and a leather shoulder strap.
Her suede sneakers take on the popular wedge sneaker and colorblocking trends, boasting a lace-up closure, velcro strap fastening, padded ankle cuffs, and functional 3″ high wedges.
Cute! A side eye goes to her staying in the Trump Soho Hotel, but I'll try to stick to fashion. I'm also on the fence with her new hairstyle: she needs some layers in there!
If you're up for the splurge, you can get Eve's sneakers at www.asos.com and her coat at Bloomingdales.

Enh… the hair is throwing everything off for me. And coat doesn't go with the bag and shoes IMO. A sportier (<–is that a word) jacket would have looke better.
She looks pregnant. I need that coat though.
they are saying she is pregnant….
She looks so different maybe its the hair ?
Cute, Im all for staying warm (it's winter)
I love the coat. Not too keen on the hair or colour.
I don't like the hair, but the look is cute. Her face is definitely looking puffy. She just might be preggo.
Ladies,that jacket is a must have.I splurged on it for my 30th last year and have not regretted spending so much on a coat.You can wear just a simple tank top without any extra layers and head out in below freezing temperature,you will be sweating like a hot summer day.GET IT NOW
Yes ,preggers!
