Late Saturday, Andre Ward walked out of Boardwalk Hall in Atlantic City as the Super Six World Boxing Classic winner and new Ring Magazine super middleweight champion. Ward put on a clinic Saturday evening as he dominated British fighter Carl Froch to claim Froch's WBC title and secure the previously vacant Ring Magazine title.
Although the score cards were a bit surprising with two judges giving Ward the fight by only a 115-113 margin, there was no question Ward dominated the fight. Even as the two 115-113 scorecards were read aloud, Froch shook his head in a bit of disbelief. Afterward he acknowledged that Ward had decisively beaten him. Froch thought he might have a better shot with a new game plan, but there is no doubt at this point that Ward is the superior fighter and the class of the 168 pound division.
After the fight, Ward said he was going to tale a long, well deserved rest while he and his promotional team figured out his next fight. The past two years have featured nothing but top of the line competition for Ward, so it is understandable he wants to take a brief break before returning to the ring. It is not a retirement by any stretch of the imagination, but rather just a breather.
While fighters often mix in some easier fights once in a while, Ward will likely be looking at continued top-level competition. The fight much of the boxing world wants to see now is Ward vs. Lucian Bute. Although Bute is now a Showtime fighter, he was not invited to the Super Six when it first got started. He has been considered the best super middleweight not taking part in the Super Six, so that is likely a fight that will happen at some point.
If Ward-Bute does not happen, another possibility would be Andre Ward versus fellow 2004 Olympian Andre Dirrell. There was a chance they could meet in the Super Six, but Dirrell had to withdraw from the tournament due to neurological issues. He will fight Darryl Cunningham in the next couple weeks, and if he wins it could set up a bout with Ward.
Oakland-based fighter Andre Ward capped a strong two-year performance in the Super Six World Boxing Classic as he dominated WBC-titlist Carl Froch en route to a unanimous decision victory. Ward claimed two of the score cards 115-113 and the third 118-10. The two 115-113 cards were big surprises as Ward seemingly dominated almost the entire fight. I had it 118-110 with Ward winning ten of the twelve rounds. I could have seen 117-111, maaaaaybe 116-112, but 115-113 was pretty surprising. The ironic part is that the British judge scored it 118-110 for Ward.
Ward dominated from the get-go and did not really let up until he had built a solid seven or eight round lead. Froch was keeping busy but most of his punches were missing. Ward put on a masterful defensive effort to prevent Froch from landing much of anything.
Beyond that however, Ward put together a strong offensive showing that might have caught Froch off guard. Ward is viewed as a very physical fighter, but he does not get as much respect for his offensive skills. On Saturday evening, he consistently landed the harder shots, most notably with a variety of hooks to the head.
Froch did make some inroads late as Ward seemed to step off the gas a bit, but Froch could nothing going with any measure of consistency. He picked up a round here or there, but it was simply not enough against Ward. Simply put, Andre Ward proved he was a superior fighter in every facet of the fight.
More than two years after it first got started, the Super Six World Boxing Classic comes to an end Saturday evening. Oakand-based Andre Ward will meet Carl Froch in Atlantic City for the WBA, WBC and Ring Magazine super middleweight titles. The tournament was created to crown the best super middleweight in the world, and it has done a good job paring down the prospects.
The fight will take place on Showtime at 9:00pm ET/PT. It will go down at the world famous Boardwalk Hall in Atlantic City and Andre Ward remains a significant favorite. Bodog has Ward sitting as a -325 favorite, with Froch sitting as a +250 underdog. Both fighters are technically sound and most expect this fight to go the distance.
Ward vs. Froch is the only televised fight, but there will be a pair of non-televised fights before the main event. Bad Left Hook has a breakdown of the undercard. Bad Left Hook will have round-by-round coverage in their open thread later this evening.
Andre Ward, who fights out of Oakland and the Bay Area, is set to fight Carl Froch on Saturday night for a chance at being the top super middleweight fighter in the world. There is a lot of pressure on Ward this weekend, especially with so many around boxing expecting him to have a breakout fight against Froch.
At the weigh in, Ward tipped the scale at the uppermost limit of 168lbs, while the 34-year old Froch came in at 167.5. As for Froch, he is not too concerned about the fight, according to this report:
"I have come in again smack on the money weight-wise, no problem at all. I'm feeling good, confident, strong," Froch told Sky Sports. "Mentally, physically, the training, the sparring, the preparation, it has all gone good so I couldn't be happier."
Despite Froch's confidence, many are looking for Ward to make a statement this weekend, including SB Nation's own boxing website, Bad Left Hook:
(Ward) must do something that will make people stop flipping through the channels, and watch him when they could be doing something else. Ward entered the Super Six to prove that he is the best super middleweight in the world, and raise his profile immensely. He has achieved the former, but the latter will not be quenched merely by winning. He must look special.
For Andre Ward the time for him to shine is immediate. He needs to look like a star against Carl Froch on Saturday, or much of what he has aimed for will be missed. And Froch will not be an easy target.
All eyes will be on the Bay Area's prized fighter on Saturday night. Will Andre Ward finally step up and announce himself to the world, or will he disappoint his fans across the nation? We'll find out soon.
Saturday evening, Oakland-based fighter Andre Ward will face off against Nottingham, England-based Carl Froch with the Super Six Super Middleweight trophy on the line. Ward and Froch were two of eight fighters who took part in the World Boxing Classic. The tournament was meant to help crown an undisputed super middleweight champion and was the first of its kind in professional boxing.
Ward and Froch have both emerged as stars through this tournament with Ward likely gaining the most from the tournament. Ward enters the fight as a significant favorite thanks in part to his dominance throughout the tournament. While he has not fought perfectly, he has won virtually every round of his tournament fights.
Andre Ward has benefited in the tournament by fighting two of his fights in Oakland and one in Carson, California. He will face Froch in Atlantic City, which is viewed as a much more neutral option for Froch than a California location. While Ward has fought outside of California during his career, a vast majority of his fights have taken place in the Golden State.
We had a chance to chat with Scott Christ from Bad Left Hook to get an idea of what to expect on Saturday. BLH has been covering the build up to the fight and will have round-by-round coverage of the bout. Scott had the following to say about Ward vs. Froch:
What to expect: Those expecting a high-action fight could be left disappointed, as Ward and Froch both lean toward the cerebral side of things. As much as Froch talks about bringing action and heavy-hitting, he's a smart fighter and knows that he has to find openings. Ward is a highly intelligent fighter. This could also get a little chippy, as neither man is afraid to get physical with the head, with elbows, with rabbit punches. At best we could get a terrific tactical fight, but tactical fighting isn't for everyone, so casual fans need to go in not expecting two guys to come out guns blazing. It's not that type of matchup.
What Ward needs to do to win: Be himself, basically. Carl can be easily frustrated at times, as he has a habit of fighting emotionally, and he can be driven to make major mistakes. Ward is good enough to capitalize on those, to win the fight at range or inside, and has the right strengths to really take Froch out of his game plan.
What Froch needs to do to win: Put in the best performance of his career. Froch's tournament wins have come against Andre Dirrell in a debatable foul-fest where many felt Carl got a hometown decision; Arthur Abraham in a shutout against a guy whose stock dropped like a rock in the tournament; and Glen Johnson, who is in his 40s and hasn't beaten an A-level fighter in years. Carl's best tournament performance may actually have been his close loss in Denmark to Mikkel Kessler, which was also by far the best fight of the Super Six. Froch has proven critics and skeptics wrong time and again, though -- so don't simply expect that he can't do it once again. He's an underdog here, but he's been one before and come out the winner.
Thanks to Scott for his thoughts on Ward vs. Froch. We will have weigh-in information and and plenty of fight-day news, but make sure and check Bad Left Hook on Saturday for round-by-round analysis during the fight.
The highly anticipated Super Six World Boxing Final between Oakland's Andre Ward and Britain's Carl Froch will unfortunately have to be put on hold after Ward was gashed open during a training session, requiring seven stitches to close the wound.
"Bad news: I sustained a cut in sparring a few hours ago," Ward tweeted Thursday night. "Flew to (Los Angeles) to see the Doc. I got 7 stitches. I will let you know the new date soon."
Promoter Dan Goossen called it a 'fluke cut' over Ward's right eyebrow that he received from sparring partner Brandon Gonzalez. Ward headed straight to the airport to meet Goossen, flew to renown plastic surgeon Dr. Paul Wallace to patch him up, the same doctor that worked miracles with Vitali Klitschko's horrendous wound he suffered during a fight with Lennox Lewis in 2003.
Goossen noted that the fall boxing schedule is rather crowded, and it's likely that this fight won't happen now until the next calendar year. As for Froch's camp, well, let's just say they're not happy about the postponement:
"All we can go on is the news given by Andre Ward, and he was very unprofessional to do so in that manner," Eddie Hearn, Froch's promoter, told Sky Sports in England. "His promoters will be fuming at the way he delivered that message. I told Carl go to the gym this morning. He's sparring at the moment and we're ready to go in October. We're not happy. We don't believe it and won't believe it until we see the cut.
Froch's camp also found it odd that Ward would be training so late at night, but feels that Showtime, the channel the fight's to be broadcast on, will make sure to get some evidence on the cut to quell Froch and fans alike for this unfortunate postponement.
The Super Six Super Middleweight Tournament has reached the final fight between Andre Ward and Carl Froch. The two fighters wrapped up a three-city promotional tour today with a visit to Ward's hometown of Oakland, California. We'll have a much more detailed write-up in the next 24 hours with plenty of pictures and video.
In the meantime, it's worth noting that while both fighters were confident of their abilities and their chances, it was a fairly sublime affair as they have handled themselves in a classy manner thus far. As both sides pointed out, these promotional tours often lead to trash-talking and belittling of the opponent. In London, Froch did question Ward's power and his performances to date. However, in Oakland Froch acknowledged Ward as a world-class fighter, declaring the two of them as the best in their division and prepared to put on a fantastic fight when they meet October 29.
The two promoters, Dan Goossen and Eddie Hearn, were both optimistic about their respective fighter's chances. Goossen played up to the Oakland crowd, getting the gathering to chant for Ward. Hearn expressed his admiration for Ward and the crowd, but was quick to point out that they would be disappointed on October 29 because Carl Froch was simply in-human and nothing like what Ward had seen to date. Although neither side went to far with the self-promotion, it was still a fairly entertaining affair.
We'll be back with more details from the Oakland press conference, including video and pictures. In the meantime, head over to Bad Left Hook to follow their detailed coverage leading up to the October 29 championship bout.
As the Super Six final approaches in late October, Carl Froch has begun to raise some concerns about the judging of the fight. The fight will take place in Atlantic City and Froch is concerned about fighting an American boxer in America. Given Froch's own dubious decision victory over Andre Dirrell in the opening round of the Super Six, this is not a surprising tactic by the English fighter.
If this fight were being held in California I'd be a bit more concerned about the judging. Hopefully hosting this fight in Atlantic City can remove some of the issues that might arise over questionable judging. Nonetheless, if this goes to the cards and Andre Ward pulls out anything remotely close, expect Carl Froch to raise some serious hell about it. Froch is sitting as a noticeable underdog, so he has at the very least set up an excuse if this fight ends up going to the cards.
Andre Ward and Carl Froch met Monday for a promotional press conference in London and we've got some video from the event. Promoter Dan Goossen had plenty to say about the chances of a sellout and also wanted to correct folks about the terminology of the Super Six Cup and not the Super Six trophy.
A Q&A begins at the 4:00 minute mark with Ward taking the first question as it relates to his journey as a fighter to reaching the finals. This was followed by Froch discussing his journey to the final and having a few choice words about Ward's level of competition and his performance against Mikkel Kessler. I don't think there will be much in the way of bad blood between Froch and Ward, but it's not surprising to see the two sides attempting to tease things at least a little bit in advance of the October 29 bout.
The final match of the Super Six World Boxing Classic is set for October 29 in Atlantic City and the promotional tour is officially underway. The two fighters started their promotion of the bout with a press conference in London, in which Froch worked to get in Ward's head a bit:
"I have not been impressed with Andre and his level of opposition. Look at his record. He's fought good fighters but not at the level where we are now. The only opponent that is up there on his record is Mikkel Kessler. And I watched that fight. I didn't care for it, to be honest. I didn't like that Mikkel had to travel with his title only to have Andre throwing his head around in there, causing the cuts and such.
"On Oct. 29, as long as it's a clean, fair fight I am not worried about Ward. He has no power whatsoever. And his hand speed, sure it's fast, but even he'll tell you it's not as fast as Andre Dirrell's. And I handled Dirrell quite easily."
Ward enters the fight as a fairly sizable favorite with the oddsmakers. Froch is more experienced, but Andre Ward has spent the last two years turning the Super Six into his coming out party. At the same time, he's fought all his fights in California and will have something to prove when he heads east to fight a savvy veteran in Froch.
The promotional tour will continue on Tuesday in New York and wrap up Wednesday in Oakland. Both NYC and Oakland will be streamed live, and the Oakland press conference will be open to the public. Fans looking to attend can head to Oakland City Hall Plaza on 1 Frank Ogawa Plaza. The press conference will start at 11:30am.
In the meantime, here's some video of Dan Goossen discussing Andre Ward:
Super middleweight titlist Andre Ward took a few minutes to chat with RingTV.com and discuss his upcoming bout with Carl Froch and the perception of Ward in the general public. The folks at Bad Left Hook broke down a couple of the key comments in the article.
Ward is set to fight Froch in the Super Six Super Middle Weight tournament final on October 29. The fight looks set to take place in Atlantic City and will mark his third fight on the East Coast. It is his biggest bout back east as Ward has spent much of his career fighting in California.
In his three Super Six fights Ward has fought in Oakland, facing Mikkel Kessler, Allan Green and Arthur Abraham at Oracle Arena. On the other hand, Froch has fought once at home in Nottingham, and then on the road or neurtal sites in Denmark, Finland, and Atlantic City.
While Ward will be the favorite in this fight, it will be interesting to see how he handles a neutral site. Additionally, Froch fought his most recent fight at Boardwalk Hall in Atlantic City. Ward discussed whether he viewed that as an advantage for Froch:
Well, I think that it is an advantage. And I'll give him that, because everybody wants to talk about the advantages that I've had fighting in Oakland, so there you go. Froch has fought in Atlantic City once. I've never been there. Now the ball is in his court. He has the advantage, so now, Andre Ward is at a disadvantage going into a fight.
It could simply be Ward trying to put some of the favorite pressure back on Froch.
Head over to RingTV.com to read the entire interview.
Andre Ward and Carl Froch will square off on October 29 in the Super Six World Boxing Classic Final, but the question remains as to where that fight will take place. Las Vegas and New York City both popped up as options, but now Atlantic City is entering the discussion. The discussion is apparently down to Boardwalk Hall in AC and an undisclosed location in Las Vegas. Neither fighter would agree to fight in the other's hometown so we now see discussions surrounding traditional boxing sites.
The fight is just under four months away and Ward remains a heavy betting favorite. He comes in below even money coming in as low as 1/3 and as high as 1/2. Froch is ranging between 6/4 and 2/1. Ward has turned this tournament into his own personal playground, dominating Mikkel Kessler, Allan Green and Arthur Abraham on points. Froch got an ugly points win over Andre Dirrell, lost a tough fight to Kessler, dominated Abraham, and won a clear decision victory over Glen Johnson. Froch will have a tough time with the skills of Ward, who has emerged as the big name in the Super Six.
Coming off Carl Froch's majority decision victory over Glen Johnson and Andre Ward's unanimous decision victory over Arthur Abraham, the final match of the Super Six Super Middle Weight World Boxing Classic is set. And now we have a tentative date for the fight. The Sun is reporting that Andre Ward vs. Carl Froch is being targeted for October 29 in either Las Vegas or New York. Carl Froch spoke with The Sun and indicated he's pushing hard for Las Vegas:
"It's the boxing capital of the world and to see my name in lights along the Strip would be awesome. All boxers dream of fighting there and I'm no exception. I'm hopeful a deal can be done."
Andre Ward has opened as a fairly heavy favorite in this fight in part because of how thoroughly he has dominated his three Super Six opponents. It's reached the point where he's lost very few rounds, if any, thus far. As BLH said above, the early buzz is for a Ward domination.
The question in regards to location will be how well the two can draw, whether it be in Las Vegas or New York. The two fighters have increased their name recognition with their performances thus far, but they're still not at the level of the Manny Pacquiao's, Bernard Hopkins', or even Wladimir Klitschko's of the world. Even in Oakland Andre Ward struggled to sell his fight and he's a native of the East Bay. Bringing a European fighter and a less than stellar selling California fighter could make for a tough draw.
We'll be here over the course of the next four months as we get ready to crown the Super Six champion. While this won't quite crown the king of the super middleweight division (Lucian Bute has something to say about that), it will put the division in a position to crown a true champion not too long after. I'd have to imagine the winner of Ward-Froch will face Bute in either their next fight, or one not too long after that. Either way we're well on our way to crowing the undisputed super middleweight champion of the world, and hopefully it's East Bay-native Andre Ward.

Christianity essential for society to be free
About three years ago, I pondered whether Americans would be celebrating future Independence Days with as many constitutional liberties as we have had.
While Americans still enjoy many more liberties than virtually anywhere else in any period of history, it remains sobering to consider whether or not these liberties are eroding.
Are we trending toward more or less liberty when:
• 1. Our government embarks on the widespread data collection of the daily communication or ordinary citizens?
• 2. Our government persists in punishing productive Americans through punitive taxation and regulations?
• 3. Our government refuses to reign in rampant deficit spending that will result in higher tax rates and fewer services?
• 4. Our government chooses to spend billions of taxpayer dollars to arm Islamic militants?
• 5. Our government shovels billions of dollars toward so-called green energy corporations that go bankrupt while, at the same time, it imposes harsh, costly penalties on the businesses that provide us with affordable energy?
• 6. Our government directs the IRS to create burdensome hurdles for the tax-exempt recognition of certain organizations while fast-tracking others?
• 7. Our government places our private medical information in the hands ot the IRS and other Affordable Care bureaucrats?
• 8. Our government health policies cause the cost of our health insurance and health care to increase dramatically?
All of these issues and more are unfolding before our very eyes. My personal answer is that we are trending toward less liberty as our government continues to vacate the provisions of the American Constitution.
Why is this taking place?
Because too many Americans have chosen to displace the Christian foundation of our republic with a form of humanism that abhors a morality based upon absolute standards. As colonial literature makes clear, a society that ignores the Christian faith cannot remain a free society.

Three studies published in a cancer journal shed new light on pipe smoking, nicotine patches and the risk of lung cancer. The first study followed more than 200,000 people and found that smoking a pipe may not be as risky as cigarettes, but it is just as dangerous as smoking cigars. And the biggest cancer risks for pipe smokers are lung and larynx cancers. A second study suggests that when it comes to kicking the habit, the nicotine patch is the most effective way for smokers to reduce their intake of tobacco related toxins. So called "reduced exposure" cigarettes came in second, although researchers note that the products don't cut the rate of tobacco toxins as much as manufacturers claim. Researchers have also uncovered evidence that contradicts the belief that women who smoke are more susceptible to lung cancer than men. The study of more than 80,000 people found no difference in the overall risk of lung cancer between the sexes. You can find all three studies in the Journal of the National Cancer Institute.
A new study conducted in Pakistan shows that regular hand-washing can greatly reduce the risk of death from disease. And that it's hand-washing that matters not what kind of soap is used. Researchers at the Centers For Disease Control studied 900 extremely poor households. 600 households received soap - half got plain soap and half got antibacterial soap. The remaining 300 households received school supplies instead of soap. In all, the hand-washing households saw a 50% reduction in cases of diarrhea even if they were too young to wash their own hands and the kind of soap they used didn't make a difference. What mattered the most was regular hand-washing to prevent the spread of the germs that cause diarrhea.
Your doctor may wash his hands before every checkup, but what about his tie? Researchers at New York's Queens Medical Center analyzed the neckties of 42 doctors and physician assistants. Nearly half of the ties contained bacteria that can cause illnesses like Pnuemonia and urinary tract infections. Researchers say the findings bring into question whether wearing a necktie is in the best interest of patients.

LSU left tackle Chris Faulk will not play in the Tigers' game against the Washington Huskies on Saturday after suffering an injury during practice this week. Faulk, a junior, started 13 games for LSU in 2011.

LSU head coach Les Miles said Wednesday that he wasn't sure about the extent of Faulk's injury, or how long the starter might be absent. "It looks like Faulk's got a bit of an injury. We don't know exactly how bad, but we hope to return him to the game some time soon. Don't know the specifics there," Miles remarked.
He added that senior Josh Dworaczyk would most likely be the guy to replace Faulk at left tackle. Dworaczyk can handle every position on the offensive line, according to Miles. He was the team's starter at left guard in 2009 and 2010.

In December 2012, Richard Gladstone came to Philadelphia from England to see a Philadelphia Eagles game. The football fan has a goal to visit every NFL stadium in the U.S.
He made it to the game, but on his way home had a major heart attack on the Broad Street subway. A Good Samaritan, a physical therapist from Hatboro, immediately began performing CPR and until paramedics arrived and took over.
Gladstone was brought to Jefferson where he underwent bypass surgery for a blocked coronary artery. He returned home without knowing the identity of the Good Samaritan who may have saved his life.
A subsequent story on 6ABC helped track her down, after Gladstone had returned to England.
Gladstone's return to Philadelphia this week had dual purposes: to meet the woman who saved his life, and to see another Eagles game. Channel 6 was there to capture their meeting:
Gladstone attended Thursday night's Eagles game with many of the nurses who cared for him at Jefferson.

Governor Tom Corbett has announced a lawsuit against the NCAA over the sanctions it imposed against Penn State University last year in the wake of the Jerry Sandusky child sexual abuse scandal.
Corbett on Wednesday called the unprecedented sanctions "arbitrary and illegal." He said they would result in irreparable economic damage to the university, the commonwealth and its citizens.
"While what occurred at Penn State was both criminal and heinous, the conduct for which Penn State was sanctioned consisted
of alleged failures to report criminal activity on campus that did not
impact fairness or integrity on the playing field," Corbett said.
Penn State in July agreed to the sanctions, which included a $60
million fine to finance child abuse
prevention grants, a four-year bowl game ban
for the football program, reduced football
scholarships and the forfeiture of 112 wins.
Corbett said the sanctions threaten to have a devastating, long-lasting and irreparable effect on the state, its citizens and its economy. He is asking the U.S. District Court in Harrisburg to throw out all of the sanctions and to declare the consent agreement illegal.
The governor said that after months of research and deliberation, as well as discussions with alumni, students, faculty, business owners and elected officials, he has concluded that the NCAA's sanctions were "overreaching and unlawful.''
"The only logical conclusion is that the NCAA did it because they benefited from the penalties and because the leadership of the NCAA believed they could," Corbett said. "And that's wrong."
The lawsuit also accuses the NCAA of forcing Penn State president Rodney Erickson into silent compliance with its sanctions by threatening to impose the "death penalty" for four years, which would forbid the football team from all competition.
Corbett said that while the alleged actions of those involved in the
tragic events at Penn State were criminal, no violation of NCAA rules
were identified. He accused NCAA president Mark Emmert of seizing upon
international publicity to "make a show of unprecedented and aggressive
"The NCAA leadership can't make up its own rules," Corbett said. "A handful of top NCAA officials simply inserted themselves into an issue they had no authority to police and one that was clearly being handled by the justice system."
Sandusky, a retired Penn State assistant football coach, was found
guilty of sexually abusing boys in June and is serving 30 to 60 years in

Another week, another blowout for Russell Wilson and the Wisconsin Badgers. This time, it was Northern Illinois getting clocked, a 49-7 stomping at Soldier Field that saw Northern Illinois fail to score for almost the final 47 minutes of the game.
The Badgers piled up 623 yards on the day, keyed as always by Wilson. The superstar transfer quarterback was 23-of-32 passing for 347 yards, three touchdowns and an interception. He rushed for 39 yards on seven carries. And Montee Ball and James White had 91 rushing yards each and three touchdowns between them. None of the eight receivers Wilson hit had more than 80 yards, which gives you an idea of how well he spreads the ball around.
NIU, for its part, could only manage 236 yards. The ground game was largely shut down, with the Huskies rushing for just 63 yards. The longest run of the day was for 15 yards. Chandler Harnish was 15-of-24 passing for 165 yards.
Wisconsin's next opponent is South Dakota. It seems unlikely that the Coyotes will be the one to stop the Badgers onslaught.
For more on Wisconsin's big win, head over to Bucky's 5th Quarter. NIU fans can consider the team's loss at Red And Black Attack. And stay with our gameday college football stream to see all the news and scores.

Coffee, Tea, or Me?
Category : Godammed Bastards, Main Stream Media, Politics
I was a featured speaker, along with Congressman Bob Filner, at a "Coffee Party" event held Sunday in North Park. In the event that you are unaware, The Coffee Party is a liberal response to "The Tea Party", of course minus the yahoos, cretins, imbeciles, and bigots that comprise the tea baggers. It was a nice group of folks, actually, if anything, too nice, at least in my opinion.
Naturally a couple of baggers showed up to protest the protesters and one of them actually had a bullhorn and one of those signs that I've only seen on television, you know, the one that has a picture of Obama and Hitler side-by-side. (Apparently while I was looking elsewhere, Obama has gone from a commie to a fascist almost overnight.) Local Fox TV news was on hand as well. Anway, while Filner was being interviewed on the sidewalk in front of the venue, bullhorn boy (here he is after a brief , but annoying ad) was shouting from 6 feet away "Filner is afraid to meet the voters!!" ( odd when you consider that, well, Filner was in fact meeting the voters. )
While this sideshow was getting most of the attention, there was another tea bagger, sans bullhorn, who was patiently explaining to an attentive lib how being spat upon by hippies upon returning from 'Nam was what awakened his political activism. If true, his was possibly the only real authentic case of spat-upon-vets yet to surface.
And, of course, that's the problem with these dolts: they just make shit up and pass it along as divine truth: Obama's a Muslim, Obama's not an American citizen, Obama's gonna take your gun away, Sarah Palin is "a breath of fresh air", a dirty hippie spit on me, Newt Gingrich is "brilliant", Dick Cheney is not a blood-sucking war criminal, etc., etc., ad nauseum.
Meanwhile, the nice guys, the coffee partiers, were actually passing around "civility pledges" inside the venue, vowing to treat with respect even those lie-spewing fear mongers who were littering the sidewalk out front. WTF? Why treat respectfully the very people that already think you're a bunch of limp-wristed pansies? If you've ever tried to reason with an attacking Doberman, you get my point. The baggers apparently have no qualms about stifling respectful dialogue, given that their holy tome is a crayon-scrawled screed called "Arguing with Idiots" written by the odious Glenn Beck.
Anyway, what do I know? Maybe the play-nice tactic will eventually work. It's certainly worth a try. The next time some tea bagger accosts you on the street, screaming bogus "truths" in your face, try just sticking a flower in the barrel of his bullhorn.

Thanks Stacy for the news about the Coffee Party meeting with Filner. I'm with the Ramona Coffee Party, we tried to set up a meeting with Hunter — could only get his campaign manager — meeting to be at 1:30 with only up to 5 members of our group allowed.
The baggers will be out in full-force here in Ramona on Thursday, just deliberating what is the best approach — ignore them & deny them oxygen? or come out in full force with counter demonstration? or take lots of pics & report on their activities objectively on a blog or other media — what do you think?
Hello Stacy,
I thought you might this amusing.
Below is the e-mail being forward by the guy who had the Obama/Hitler sign.
Only about 5-6 (Tea Party) people showed up for the Filner talk. 3-4 went inside and Clair and I stayed outside. KUSI was there so there should be a report tonight on KUSI.
Frank from OB Rag gave the third degree when I went inside about "civility". So I decided to stay outside and went back to my car to retrieve my sign comparing the racism of Obama's church to the racism of Nazism. I was also yelling some things. The management of Queen Bees did not like it much and tried to tell me that I had no right to protest on the sidewalk in front of the building and called the police.
I mentioned to them that it was too bad that they did not have Nazi youth that could come beat me up and put me behind bars for exercising my 2nd amendment rights. I was not thinking that they, in fact, do have such Nazi-like street thugs and shortly afterwards a thug showed up, threatened me, wrenched the sign out of my hands and broke the handle in the process. Clair's husband pointed out that the guy was probably SEIU and it may very well be true. I suspect they called them when the police were slow in showing up.
The police were just pulling up, when it happened. There were several witnesses and I tried to get him arrested, but the police seemed to be biased against us. They told me that I would have to sue him for the cost of the yardstick (69 cents). We did not get video of the attack, but we do have the names, video and photos of the police and the attacker. Would be nice, if we coud get someone to investigate and find out, if he is SEIU. I will be putting the photo of the guy and video of him and the police on the Internet.
Roger and his cohorts surmised that the culprit was a SERVICE EMPLOYEES INTERNATIONAL UNION thug.
I'm impressed the Coffee Party could speed dial the SEIU to send over a thug in a matter of seconds.
In fact, Tony, the guy that broke the Roger's stick , is a poet and an artist who was there to read a poem at the event before the Coffee Party.
Roger also mentions exercising his 2nd Amendment Rights. Funny, I didn't see Roger bearing arms.
Frank of the O.B Rag apparently gave Roger the 3rd degree or was it the 2nd degree on civility?
"Obama has gone from a commie to a fascist almost overnight."
And the next day he is a Marxist. Which is funny, as I seriously doubt these people even know what a real fascist, communist, marxist really is… but anyways.
Glad you are up & running, Stacy. I, too, am bored by bright eyed sniverals telling me to be polite to the teatard/torture demographic.
So glad you are back to the blog. I miss the radio show, but this'll do. The Baggers are so passionate and so misguided. I watched the Fox 5 story. The host said things got heated and then shows Roger yelling at people and no Coffee Filterers really mixing it up to show things got heated. The hose should have said… "There was a coffee party in North Park…..where Roger, the loon with the Hitler sign got heated over what he perceives to be his country being destroyed".
On April 24 the Tea Party in Ramona will host Duncan Hunter Sr. at the Main Stage theater, 12 Noon, 6th and Main Streets. I am thinking that we should all be there to thank Duncan Hunter for his stewardship as our Congressman 1981~2009. Some things that we can thank him for:
Thank you Duncan Hunter!
Sorry Stacy, I'm thinking the flower in the bullhorn idea probably won't work. It's a nice idea though..
Wait, Duncy Jr. wouldn't go to a coffee party for his constituents, yet he will go to a tea party event? And WTH mainstage? What a douche move. I don't care if they pay….why is it okay to appease the right, but it's impossible to sell advertising on lefty radio? It's not the message. The message on righty radio is always wrong.
[...] Stacy Taylor's take on the afternoon. var addthis_brand = 'OB Rag';var addthis_language = 'en';var [...]
Yes, the ideal of the Coffee Party is to try to be civil, even to "lie-spewing fear mongers". Not all Tea Party people are that way. Some will engage in a civil discussion of the issues. But certainly not all. When civility fails and the other person only wants to spew lies and insults, the response is to just ignore the person and carry on. There's work to be done and there's no point wasting time trying to talk with people that refuse to talk with you.
we should be out in force at all these events
The idea was that Filner should have had a Town Hall to discuss Obamacare, not hold a Tea Party event. Susan Davis, we can say at least, had the heuvos to do that, Filner did not.
What Tony Kranz said is totally untrue. I did not approach him. He approached me and started ranting, then charged me and assaulted me. Why should I be angry with some passerby, who I did not know and also did not know his political opinions. It does not make any sense at all. That he was provoked by my sign and attacked me does make sense.
I have read the foundation books on Black Liberation Theology, the doctrine of Obama's church of 20 years, and it can be described as a kind of racist Black Christian Identity religion, not unlike, but reversed, to the Nazi Christian Identity Movement that some say Timothy McVeigh was associated with. There are parallels in the racist doctrines of both.
If you go to this link and scroll down, there are many disturbing racist qoutes from the foundation books on BLT.
My point is the same standard should be applied to all. Obama was in a KKK-like group for 20 years and that should disqualify him for the presidency. We don't want a confirmed racist for president and the Democrats should not get a pass on that.
I have had a hobby interest in German language and history for over 30 years and have been to holocaust memorials and museums all over Europe. I know what I am talking about and was shocked when I found out that the doctrine of Obama's church is essentially the same perverted Christian doctrine that the Nazis forced on the evangelical churches in the Third Reich. Many German ministers went to concentration camps rather than accept it, but Obama embraced something similar with open arms. It is very sad but true.
It is not exactly unknown for protests to be provocative. Who notices you, if you are not provocative? Filner did not exactly treat us respectfully by not having an open town hall and even this event he wanted to pack with his supporters. If you give respect you are more likely to get respect.
This photo below was taken a few seconds before Tony Kraus attacked me. You can see that he is red in the face and veins bulging out of his neck. He was angry. I was somewhat amused by his rant. I did not block his path or put the sign in his path. He was angry about what was on the sign.
The sign is designed to provoke in order to draw people's attention to the Nazi-like racism of the doctrine of Obama's church of 20 years. I have found that I do not have to do anything except display the sign for people to go ballistic. He is a lot bigger than I am also. I am not exactly a macho man and am not in the habit of physically provoking anyone, especially when they are that much bigger than I am. No matter what I have on the sign, it does not justify an attack on my person. Free speech is free speech and in fact what I have on the sign is a valid comparison, considering the racism of the doctrine of Obama's church, although few people know about it.
ah yes, the 1st amendment and freedom of speech … what is speech and what is harassment? does it give someone the right to blast their voice via bullhorn a few feet from one's face on a public sidewalk?
then we have the nuisance and disturbing the peace laws and ordinances …
but bottom line … the 1st amendment does allow one to make an ass of himself or herself … so wave that flag, bullhorn boy … if you want to win any support in the public square, you should behave intelligently and articulate your points with documented facts …
good day.
I can be excitable, but I think you can see from the expression on my face that I am not angry. I just think that I have a message that ought to be publicized. People don't think that a black can be racist, but that in itself is a prejudice. Obama comes from the racist Black Nationalist tradition of Elijah Muhammad, Malcolm X and Louis Farrakhan, not the integrationist tradition of MLK. Most Americans, however, unfortunately do not have a clue what Black Nationalism is all about. The media and politicians are too politically correct or even too intimidated by the likes of Louis Farrakhan to explain it to the public. Obama had a private meeting last fall with Farrakhan in the White House, which would be approximately like Bush having a private meeting with Tom Metzger in the WH.
It is sad when we begin to focus more on the sideshow then the substance, but that's where the discourse is at.
Mr Ogden may be better served by bringing his concerns regarding Black Liberation Theology to the actual church of Black Liberation Theology, rather than to a meeting of liberal activists, as much fun as it is to "connect the dots" Glenn Beck style.
not to mention, Roger's misplaced concern.
If Mr Obama is an advocate for "BLT" he is a rather poor one. It's been a long time since we've had so many African-Americans unemployed (record levels, double that of general population) incarcerated, in poor health, dying of AIDS (#1 killer of black women 29-44)…
It brings me no joy to acknowledge that black folk in the US have seldom been in the tough straights they are in now – in thrall to debt, worse education, worse health, etc. This is sort of the OPPOSITE of liberation theology — and if Obama is secretly practicing some sort of politics which bring people out of poverty, and reverse these ills, apparently, only Roger knows about it, because neither me nor Bruce Dixon or Glenn Ford at BAR has seen it.
Mr Ogden has his rights to free speech, which clearly includes the subset of protected speech called "Stupid Speech".
Kudos to Filner, Frank Gormlie, Stacy Taylor, and all. I think both a full -throated rejection of the hate-filled speech, an engagement with the rational folks, and peaceful progress 'damn the torpedoes' is the logical three-fold path of the "Coffee Party" and like mindeds.
Mike Copass
Great post and comments!
Stacy, it's great to have you back in some form of media; you've been missed.
Overall I am tired of the insipid bickering and "gotcha" politics that is seemingly being practiced by most everyone today. I think we're all a bit on edge because of the poor economy and instead of making the best of bad situation we end up acting like children suffering from a case of the "but MOOOM's." So many people are out of work, underemployed, working with a paycut, struggling to keep a business afloat, etc. and we are arguing over a broken sign…
Coffee Party? Tea Party? I prefer neither but I welcome the exchange of ideas! Perhaps we all can come with some good ideas on how to fix things, even locally….it has to start somewhere.
Is Obama a closet racist? I would say no, however, he is certainly entitled to his own opinion and I don't have a problem with that provided he doesn't advocate creating internment camps for us crackers or other non-blacks.
I hope that made some sense and now it's time for my cold medicine!
Take another hit of fresh air.
I am so tired of everything; did you know that every galaxy has a black hole in the center, in some cyclically form. Which means something I think? It is the best news I have heard in a long time.
Trisha, Obama may not seem to be a racist, but the doctrine of his church is extremely racist and anti-American. There is such a thing as deception and David Duke said 30-40 years ago to put a nice face on extremism, but even Duke was not the first to promote that idea.
Obama called Jeremiah Wright his spiritual guide. Wright is the foremost minister in the US that has promoted BLT and he said in a televised interview that it is the doctrine that he taught in his church. The racism it teaches has parallels to the Nazi version of Christianity (Positives Christentum) that was forced on churches in the Third Reich and is still in use today in the US by the Nazi Christian Identity Movement. This is why I draw the comparison between Obama and Hitler. He has similar racist religious beliefs and not one has confronted him directly with this fact. He blamed it all on Jeremiah Wright.
I am not the first to notice this. It's in Black and White in the books on BLT. Father Andrew Greeley, a sociologist at the U. Chicago, called BLT a Nazi mentailty. David Horowitz calls BLT "Afro-Nazism". I think any objective person that reads the books on BLT can recognize that it is racist and seditious. It teaches that America and white society are satanic and will be destroyed.
You don't have to read Obama's mind. If a white man were in the KKK for 20 years, you would assume he is a klansman and not there merely for social reasons.
I was there and Roger was odious. Bob Filner goes anywhere there are more than 2 people. He goes out of his district quite often, spoke in Rancho Bernardo from an invite. Town Hall, Davis Town Hall? Where obnoxious tea bag types shouted down every single question, shouted down every single answer from Davis. Completely disrespectful, counter productive and vile. All dressed up in thier flag clothing, them there patriots just love the flag gear. Had no problem with bush trashing the country for 8 long years, creating the deficit, endless war based on lies, and now tea bags want us to believe they care about deficit? Well, I call BS! They are racist slime, period the end. Their signs speak volumes about what they believe.
Barbara, "odious" is ignoring the fact that you have a racist and seditious president.
Trisha – Obama may have a right to accept a racist and seditious religion with parallels to Nazism, but such a person does not have a right to be president. Being president is a position of trust, not a right, and we cannot trust someone that was in such a group.
However, the really "odious" thing is that the media and politicians ignore the documented fundamental racism of Obama's belief at TUCC. Obama blamed it all on his "crazy" minister, when he knows very well what BLT is all about, genocidal racism and extreme Anti-Americanism. That means his speech after ths scandal on race relations was a lie of cosmic proportions.
You guys are accusing Tea Partiers of being "racist" while actually supporting racism yourselves. Ironic and amusing, isn't it? It think before this is over, you guys are going to give the term "blowback" a completely new meaning. Because the public is going to understand, sooner or later, that the President is a racist and bigot and you people tolerate that willingly.
Ah, wingnuts. sorry I missed the freak show.
Mutt, the wing nuts are those that — in willful ignorance — support a President that was in an extreme racist and seditious group for twenty years. That is well documented and your mindless blathering will not change the facts.
I would like some specific examples of how exactly BLT is extremely racist and seditious, for one. I mean, examples from a source that isn't Newsmax, or Human Events, Etc. Or from writers like David Horowitz.
I also take issue with you lumping Malcolm X in with a black nationalist movement he later renounced. The man's views changed dramatically by the time he died, but I also have no problems with the things he said when he was part of black nationalism.
Now, the church Obama attended for 20 years, was not BLT, but only founded on the ideals similar to BLT. And this is not by their own designation, but by the founder of BLT.
JUst because a critic compares a church to Nazi Germany just by saying it's so, doesn't actually make it so. Remember this before you ever EVER open your goddamned stupid piehole. The NAZIS f-ing killed people. Lots of them. This is not to be disputed. Whether or not there are similarities is moot. Once BLT starts killing people, you got your comparison.
Your signs are disgusting and do cause people to react possibly violent. But this is because they are comparing something that actually happened to something you and some others have cooked up in your heads as something that may potentially happen.
Oki-Doke, fair enough. Most people will not seriously look at the facts that may contradict their pre-conceived notions. Here is the link to a clip of Wright saying the doctrine of his church is based on BLT (not something similar, but BLT) and a number of qoutes from the foundation books on BLT by James H. Cone.
And here is a page that has a summary and about 80 qoutes, including the ones in the clip above with the books and page numbers where they can be found. You will note in the first qoute that even Cone admits that many people find his theology racist and even Nazi-like. His defense was that of Malcolm X, who just said that it is difficult for white devils to recognize that they are the devil.
Note that there is also no redemption for white liberals.
hey, Wingnut roger- your, uh, research take you into dispensationalists? or other flocks of white loons?
Mutt, you're not a serious person. So there is not much sense in encouraging your nonsense, is there?
Father Greeley has an excuse. He is now 82 years old and maybe a little senile by now. What's your excuse for supporting a man that had a Nazi-like racist religion for 20 years? You can read the qoutes directly from the books on BLT.
What I am saying is not that Obama is a Facist or Nazi, but that he had a racist, seditious religion for 20 years. Whether that is acceptable to you or a by now senile Father Greeley, because you have gotten caught up in his charisma, you should not force the rest of us to accept the risk that he may very well be a believer in this Koresh-like religion. We don't want to have a super-sized Waco on the Potomac.
Last October he invited Louis Farrakhan for a little tète a tète in the White House. Farrakhan is as cuckoo as they come. See this clip, especially the last part, where Farrakhan has a spaceship abduction and receives a message from God.
What may be more important is that Father Geeley is a prominent figure in Chicago. He knows Obama personally. It would not be socially acceptable for him to personally oppose Obama there. David Horowitz called BLT "Afro-Nazism". Anyone that reads the doctrine and has even a bit of objectivity can see that it is racist against whites and it fact it has parallels to certain Nazi doctrines.
Try putting the shoe on the other foot and imagine a white president had been in a church that talked about whites as being the minisfestation of God and non-whites as being satanic and to be confronted as the Antichrist.
Things have gone so far out of balance that we now have a President, who has made hating whitey and hating America the central tenets of his religion. You may want to ignore it, but if people can't apply the same standard fairly to all no matter what their color there will eventually be violence on a large scale to correct this type of injustice.
do i smell a fish finger
I would if fishy's name weren't Gabriel or something. Plus, we've seen both of their mugs. Fish standing over a bloody mess on the deck of a sportfishing boat and this guy holding up the Nazi comparison sign. Not the same dude.
I just want people to know that there is extreme racism and hate for America in Obama's background that many people sense but do not quite understand and that it has certain parallels to the racism of the Nazi state religion that was forced on german Evangelical chruches in the Third Reich. I assume that not everyone that reads this will be a rabid, foaming-at-the-mouth partisan that cares more about their side winning and implementation of some unrealistic deceptive fairy tale of a world utopia than they care about the country as a whole and their own well-being. You may think that you will get the fairy tale that the Black Messiah is painting for you, but what you will end up getting from the Black Messiah and his disciples will be a holy mess.
Shut the f**k up Roger! I repeat, they killed people!!!!! You can dig deep enough and find something wrong with everyone's background.
NO links. I want you to tell me exactly how our president is anything like the 3rd Reich. What religion is being forced upon us? Tell me. You need to get a grip, man. How the hell can you even think with all that crazy rattling around in your head?
roger if you replace obama with rush beck hannity palin bush
Forget the Tea totalers, Coffee Party?
Without that liberal Franklin Roosevelt doing away with Prohibition we couldn't enjoy a cold one after a day's work.
Left to the world the Republican Taliban would have us live we couldn't even have a beer.
A toast to FDR and the beer party!
what hilarious about teabaggrs is they demand to be taken seriously. How can anyone by that after this ongoing lunacy:
Teatard gospel.
Heard following comment on CSPAN:
Why is it that Right wing hate groups that openly train with guns, and who openly call for the over-throw of the federal government (President) should be called militias?
Why are they not more accurately referred to as domestic terrorists?
They engage in the same behaviour that foreign terrorist groups do, yet we refer to them with a label that disguises their violent intent.
Semantics are Very Powerful -
I get very confused by the words:

To me that sounds like fondling or touching a child.

Let's insist that the media to tell the horrific truth -
Let's not refer to the criminals as child "molesters"
This will help us understand the true brutality

County and school leaders are pushing for an overpass at one of Lubbock County's most dangerous intersections.
Their concern is Woodrow Road and US Highway 87 and Monday Lubbock County Commissioners unanimously approved sending a formal request to the Texas Department of Transportation to construct an overpass at that intersection. This comes after several serious accidents and three deaths at that the intersection in recent years.
County Commissioner of Precinct 1 Bill McCay says, "We're just going to keep pushing as hard as we can until we get that intersection is one of the safest in the county instead of one of the most dangerous."
The speed limit on US 87 is 70 miles an hour, while on Woodrow the speed limit is 60 miles an hour. Those high speeds are just part of the reason supporters say an overpass is needed. But despite their efforts, TxDOT says it may not happen until 2015.
Fast speeds and a high volume of traffic at Woodrow Road and US 87 proved to be a nearly deadly combination for Jimmy Smith's daughter.
"She turned in front of a car and it was lucky for both of them that day. She came out in pretty good shape but he didn't," says Smith.
While Smith's daughter was okay, the other driver, Justin Kiesling, had to be treated for serious injuries.
"When I got there it was real bad. We were fortunate, she was lucky. And he was lucky he wasn't killed," adds Smith.
But others have not been as lucky. In 2005, DPS says Oscar Beltran pulled out in front of Ford Explorer. His two passengers died in the crash, while Beltran later died of injuries from the accident.
Steve Warren, Director of Transportation, Planning and Development for TxDOT says the intersection is not that deadly based on the numbers.
"I've got the traffic accident reports over the last four years and best I can tell there have been three fatalities in 4 years," says Warren.
Warren says that is still too many. However, overpass construction is based on delay to travel, traffic congestion, development and safety.
Pat Henderson, Superintendent of Lubbock Cooper ISD says could be improved by an overpass.
"We are requesting officially that they consider building an overpass out here. We know it's expensive, we know there are other projects but if you don't request it, it'll never get on the list," says Henderson.
"If we had the funds today maybe an overpass is the thing we need to do. But at this point in the time funding is not there and we're going to continue to work towards a better solution at this point," says Warren.
Warren explains that means continued monitoring of the impact of added left turn lanes and warning lights.
"Before we jump into building an overpass we need to exhaust any other possibilities for a more cost effective solution to the problem," Warren adds.
And, in Smith's eyes that means an overpass.
"These kids could get off and the staff here has grown by leaps and bound and the district is growing. The traffic at this intersection is only going to get heavier. It is not ever going to get lighter," says Smith.
TxDOT says an overpass at this intersection could cost up to $15 million, but federal funding is already tied up until about 2015.

So it appears that Norv Turner will be the next Brown's Offensive Coordinator. ESPN reports it here. The Plain Dealer here.
I think this will probably be good, but it has me wondering- what's in it for Norv? Is he content to be an OC, or will we have to worry about him angling for another head coaching job? Regardless, it's nice to see some experience paired with youth. I just hope we don't import the entire Charger's coaching staff, especially with the performance we've seen from them over the past few years.

Our Partners
Hopewell Culture National Historical Park partners with local organizations to fulfill its mission to preserve, protect, and interpret the remnants of the park's five earthwork complexes and one additional site co-managed with the Arc of Appalachia.
The Arc of Appalachia Preserve System
The Spruce Hill works are owned by the Arc of Appalachia Perserve System and co-managed by Hopewell Culture NHP and Ross County Park District. Spruce Hill is one of the best remaining examples of hilltop enclosures fabricated by the Hopewell Culture. The non-profit Arc of Appalachia Preserve System was founded in 1995 as a grassroots organization to preserve forest and associated Eastern eco-systems, as well as ancient earthworks and historical buildings. For more information about The Arc, please click here to visit their website. To learn more about the story of how Spruce Hill was saved, click here.

Ohio History Connection
The Seip Earthworks unit is co-owned with the Ohio History Connection (OHC), formerly known as the Ohio Historical Society. Currently, while the majority of visitor facilities and land at this park unit are owned & managed by OHC, all property and facilities at Seip Earthworks will likely be relinquished to Hopewell Culture NHP / National Park Service on a date to be determined in 2014.
The National Park Service has partnered with the Ohio History Connection since Hopewell Culture NHP's inception in 1923 (then Mound City Group National Monument) and will continue its proud partnership with OHC in order to preserve and protect the remnants of the Hopewell Culture.
Ross County Park District
Recreational trails at the Hopewell Mound Group are the result of a partnership with the Ross County Park District. This partner helped convert a mile of abandoned B & O railroad corridor to the Tri-County Triangle Trail. The Ross County Park District also co-manages Spruce Hill works with Hopewell Culture NHP and the Arc of Appalachia Preserve System.

Tri-County Triangle Trail
The multi-use trail at the Hopewell Mound Group is a partnership with the Tri-County Triangle Trail, a non-profit organization. The trail connects the towns of Chillicothe, Frankfort and Washington Court House via a 28+ mile paved section. Parking and restrooms are located adjacent to the trail at the park's Hopewell Mound Group facilities on Sulphur Lick Road. For more information about the Tri-County Triangle Trail, click here.
Did You Know?
Freshwater mussels were an important resource for Hopewellian people. They were used as food, provided pearls for ornaments and shells were utilized for hoes. Although plentiful during the Middle Woodland period, over-harvesting and low water quality have reduced their numbers drastically today. Many freshwater mussels are on the State and Federal Endangered Species list. More...

I know I've said numerous times that I was done talking about Manning until he made a decision... but I had a dream last night that I can't help but share. I see it as a dire warning to our franchise and something that could haunt us for decades to come.
Maybe this all has to do with me being a Chicago Cubs fan, but as an atheist I've always retained a strong notion of karma. Like religion, karma is something that can and will never be proved. But since I don't believe in an afterlife, the idea that people will get what's coming to them always seems to comfort me. Of course, if you step back and actually look at how great some of the world's biggest a-holes are, you know that it's not real. But, why take away the fun of imagining a just world. But, without further adieu, on to my dream... or actually more of a nightmare to be honest.
The nightmare was more like me watching a movie... I was there but no one could see, touch or talk to me. Very Harry Potteresque for my fellow Hogwarts nerds. It started off with the ghost of the past taking John Elway to the 1945 World Series. Mr. Elway was bewildered by this and started demanding to know why he was standing outside of Wrigley Field more than 30 years before he played when he chose football over baseball. The ghost slowly shushed him and pointed to the gate. As he watched, a man was being esquarted off the premises with a billy goat in hand. He was arguing with the ushers that he had paid for two tickets and that he and his goat should be allowed to attend. As they closed the doors on him, the angry fan went home and wrote a telegram to the Cubs' owner letting him know that what had happened to him was unjust and for treating their fans wrongly, they will never again win a world series. As Elway looked on at the fan, the ghost of the present appeared and took him away.
Elway was actually excited for this ghost. The present contained his biggest move as the Broncos' top exec. The very night before, he had wined and dined Peyton Manning and left him extremely impressed. This was a memory that he couldn't wait to relive. Instead though, he was taken to the home of Tim Tebow. Tebow had playbooks scattered around him as he was watching film after film. His arm was being iced from all the work he had put himself through in the afternoon and his focus was as determined as anything that Elway had ever seen. As he looked on, finally starting to understand how deep his quarterbacks passion actually went, Tebow's phone rang. "Yes, sir." "Jacksonville, sir?" "I guess this means you got Manning. I'm sorry to hear that I can't play for you any longer sir, and I wish you and your team all the best." With that he put the phone done and Elway's heart broke just a little bit. But before he could react, the ghost of the present changed scenery. He suddenly found himself in the home of ordinary Broncos' fans. Three children were playing on the rug in front of the TV, as their parents sat on the couch watching ESPN. Suddenly the news came across the screen and the children started crying. They had witnessed magic and seen a man do everything the right way on and off the field. He gave it his all, so why did Denver have to ship him out. The man, wearing a Tebow jersey, looked at his wife in anger and told her he needed to go write a letter. With that, he sat down and penned out a simple short note to Mr. Pat Bowlen informing him that he was tired of switching allegiances to quarterbacks, and that even though he could understand most of them until now, this one was unjust and for treating Tim Tebow and Broncos' fans this way, the Broncos will never again win a Super Bowl.
WIth that, Elway gasped and looked toward the ghost of the present... but he was gone. Instead there was the ghost of the future who sat him down in front of a TV as it whirled through the future decades of Broncos' suffering. The Manning debacle failed as Tebow went on to find great success. Quarterback after quarterback was replaced on the team as no one could ever fill the shoes of being our next franchise guy. Whenever we got big name stars on our team, they were hurt... On the rare occasions we did make the playoffs, we were blown out in huge upsets. Elway saw himself fired from his executive position, mocked out of his position by a city that once adored him. After a century had passed, the franchise still had only two trophies to show for its efforts. Elway was devastated...
I woke up before I had the chance for this dream to improve. I would hope Elway would have realized the errors of his ways, called Manning and told him we changed our minds and then called Tebow to apologize. Yeah, that would have been a total dream, huh?
My point with sharing this with you has nothing to do with how I think our future will be though. I could see us finding success with Manning or even 5 or 10 years after him the proper way (with a guy we've groomed on our own). The real point of sharing this with you is that if the Broncos do go on a major losing streak, which is always a very scary possibility, it won't take much for people to come up with the legend of the Tebow curse, especially if he would succeed. And in my mind, whenever someone has a reason to believe you've been cursed, you've probably done something wrong enough that karma would have a reason to. Shipping out a young role model who is so focused and dedicated to the game on and off the field who always seems to do and say the right thing might just be enough to cause one.

The major portion of The Great American Hardwood Forest occurs in the eastern third of the United States and the country can be divided into five regions. Each forest region has many different forest types. These forest types maintain their own character based on local climate, topographic, and soil conditions. Most hardwood species overlap a bit and are growing in several regions.
The Southern Forest Region:
This forest region touches the Atlantic and Gulf coast from Maryland and Delaware to Texas, then north through the lowlands of Oklahoma, Arkansas, and Missouri, and east via the Ohio River Valley. This is the largest hardwood producing region. Abundant stands of sweetgum , red and white oaks , hickories, yellow-poplar , ash, hackberry and cottonwood are growing.
The Appalachian Forest Region:
This forest region covers the mountain areas of New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Maryland, Virginia, West Virginia, Ohio, Kentucky, Tennessee, North Carolina and northern parts of Missouri, Alabama and Georgia. Major species in the region include red and white oak, yellow-poplar, walnut , the maples, ash and hickory.
The Northern Forest Region
This forest region encompasses the New England states, the Great Lake states and the upper Mississippi valley. Species in this area include the maples and oaks, cherry , ash , the birches, beech , and basswood.
The Central Forest Region:
This forest region includes some or all of 13 different states located mostly in the central lowlands: Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, south-western Wisconsin, Iowa, South Dakota, Nebraska, Kansas, northern Oklahoma and Arkansas, Missouri and western Kentucky. The principal species are walnut, the oaks, the hickories, ash, the maples, yellow-poplar, basswood and cottonwood.
The Western Forest Region:
This forest region makes up the remainder of the United States including Alaska and Hawaii. There are only a few western hardwoods, specifically red alder .

Select Route:
This route holds a PG safety rating because there is approximately 15 feet between the last bolt and the chains. However most of the area above the last bolt is reasonably easy. The last difficult move on the route is the traverse five feet above the last bolt. The route is to the right of Nurse�s hook which is to the right of Cactus Garden. Follow the crack up to the over hang. Pull yourself around the left side of the overhang and continue up about seven feet. Next you will need to reverse to the left. Then finish the climb to the top. When you�re leading this route you will have to stay on the left crack due to the placement of the bolts.

Blueberry Buttermilk Pancakes Recipe
For years, I made these pancakes plain. Then my husband and I started growing blueberries. What a delicious addition! I often fix a fluffy stack for my family. It's hard to fill up our grandkids, so I'm glad this recipe makes a big batch.
- 2 cups fresh or frozen blueberries
- 1 cup sugar
- 1/2 cup water
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 package (1/4 ounce) active dry yeast
- 2 tablespoons warm water (110° to 115°)
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 2 cups buttermilk
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 3 eggs
- 1/2 cup heavy whipping cream
- 1-1/4 cups fresh or frozen blueberries
- In a small saucepan, combine the blueberries, sugar and water. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered, for 15 minutes or until slightly thickened. Remove from the heat. Stir in lemon juice; keep warm.
- In a small bowl, dissolve yeast in warm water. In a large bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking soda and salt. Gradually stir in buttermilk, yeast mixture and oil until smooth. In a small bowl, beat eggs and cream; stir into the batter.
- Pour batter by 1/4 cupfuls onto a greased hot griddle. Sprinkle each pancake with about 1 tablespoon blueberries. Turn when bubbles form on top of pancake; cook until second side is golden brown. Serve with warm blueberry syrup. Yield: 6 servings.
Editor's Note: If using frozen blueberries, do not thaw before adding to batter.
Editor's Note: If using frozen blueberries, use without thawing to avoid discoloring the batter.

Philly Beer Week, the citywide celebration of suds we wait all year for, kicks off May 30! PW is counting down the days with Eric San Juan's daily spotlight of great craft beers everyone should get to know better.
All the insanity common in the American craft beer scene can at times being a little fatiguing, especially for those of us who are in a constant search for something new. Sometimes you just want something … well, normal. Something traditional. Well-crafted and tasty, but also familiar and comforting. A traditional English-style brown ale, perhaps? Nodding Head's Grog, brewed right here in Philly, certainly fits the bill. Nutty sweet malts with a touch of milk chocolate, Earthy hops in the flavor and aroma, and a dry finish makes this a highly sessionable ale that is as approachable as the sweet old lady down the street. There is nothing here that is going to wear you out—it's not a powerhouse like, say, Dogfish Head's Indian Brown Ale—and sometimes that's exactly what you want from a beer. See for yourself at, you guessed it, Nodding Head.
