Several years ago I was vacationing in Portland. There was a BIG humbug over the fact that during a parade the anarchist crowd was attacked by the leftist pro-abortion group supported by the pot fest crowd followed by the dog pulling street people!?!?! The anarchist were madder than hell because the police did not protect them!!! What a bunch of loonies! By the way, Portland public transportation systems stinks, literally, beautiful place, trashy people! I do not visit Portland any more! Now my family goes to Florida and South Carolina, along with my money!

Whites just do not get the racism between non-white groups! Hate within hate within hate! Once a Black friend of mine explained the color differences within the back community, I was amazed! I never knew that racism was within the black community! Once a Latino friend of mine explained the country of origin issues among Latinos, I was amazed! The story goes on with an Asian friend, a Middle Eastern friend and on and on! Reality, …..underneath it all, ….most people fricken' hate each other! It's a matter of difference, it's not pride, …..it's racism, a universal hatred for those who are different!!!

What were they thinking? Are the bamaites messing up? The problem with their universal arrogance and their collective narcissism is that they MISS reality! They start in this "mind think" that they are loved, only to be abandoned by those who loose the spirit. Their skin is thin, yet their retribution thick with their own hatred and malice. When you stand for nothing, you fall for anything! The fire of liberalism consumes those who believe in it as, they are destroyed by it, and all that is left is smoke and destruction!

As a contractor, I REFUSE to work under the auspices of home associations! They are run by crazies! A bunch of tin Jesus' with elevated ideas of their own importance in life! They are forever getting in ******* matches with each other, with the home owner caught in the middle! They all want their interpretation of "the rules" and to dictate how the are implemented! I have followed the association code to the letter, only to be told that I was not compliant due to some interpretation snafu, which meant, "we are not paying you!" And if you thing that life is a pain in the aspidistra, we have an administration that wants to eliminate the rule of law for a monarchy and arbitrary implementation of their interpretation of what they believe the law should be, in their opinion!
February 10, 2013 at 10:40am
What is down the road is controlled rolling blackouts! Wake up folks, the government is LIMITING any new power plants, they want bird killing wind mills and solar panels (from china)! We need more energy in a time when it is restricted! Do the math! There will not be enough to go around! Remember "we all have to have skin in the game!" bho, We all must suffer deprivation together, unless you are a policy maker and then it does not apply! Start buying candles and hurricane lamps, and start to learn to live with less! Except of course you can afford to do otherwise but, most will not be able to!

I've worked since I was 9 years old, I'm 64 and still work! There have always been people who would try my "last nerve"! I had to remember that for me, it was the money. There was always a plan and a goal "down the road" for me. That was what got me through bad work situations, ………I always had hope for better situation! I started my own business and never looked back! I had drive and a belief in myself and a desire to succeed, everything this dude does not have! I am sad for these kids that are going to be dust on the road of life.

Two hits to the largest mass! It's what I was taught, act when your life is threatened with no remorse, and wait 24 hours before you give your police report! Police typically are allowed counseling and a waiting period before they fill out their reports after a shooting! I would find the action terribly stressful and would not like to make a mistake due to the great stress of the situation!, only to cause problems later due to interpretation!

Rock and pop stars are very talented people. They are also very attractive people. When they decide to combine their incredible talent with their incredible good looks and take a turn at modeling for some high-end fashion houses -look out! The results are, predictably, insanely hot. Y'heard? We thought so. Get ready folks, because it's time to vogue our way through Vogue (and Elle and Harper's…)!
The question of the day: Could you afford these celebs? Whether you're hosting a bachelorette party of a fancy cocktail party on your yacht (yeah, we're gonna assume you have a yacht if you're entertaining these prices) these celebs could be the sparkling gems you're missing. Maybe they'll perform some of their hits – in fact, Mariah Carey and Beyonce are more than happy to. The only twist? It'll set you back at least 1 million dollars. So go on and take out your checkbooks, or simply just shake your head. We've collected a list for you of 20 Celebs With Crazy High Booking Fees ranked from the lowest costs to the highest.

Music videos have always straddled the line between selling the music or selling sex. The love scenes in some music videos are so steamy, so scintillating and so sexy that we're not sure if we're watching a music video–or a sex tape! But which are the hottest sex scenes in music video history? Let's just say it's a battle between making love on the beach, in a bathtub and in a plain old hotel room bed…
Lady Gaga braves the cold, we get a taste of Lana Del Rey's new music, and fans now have a date for Lil Wayne's next album release.
We all know that clothes are optional in music these days. Seriously, from album covers to music videos, and even concert costumes, how much proof do you need? But these days the name of the game has become how to creatively cover yourself, and our personal favorite has got to be body paint!
Who's slated to rock the house on Seth Meyers' Late Night show? Madonna reveals one of her pet peeves when working out, and Bastille becomes the latest Artist To Watch.
It's grills gone wild in Hollywood these days! We thought it was over back in '06, but lately the teeth bling thing has been making a comeback in a huge way. Madonna's metal mouth'd grin at the 2014 Grammys last weekend reminded us that grills (or "grillz," to be more precise) can go well and also go wrong…very very badly wrong. And we've got plenty examples of both!

New Mormon polygamy statement exposes privilege in the Church
Liberal Mormons: This is not the time for us to enjoy a nice cup of schadenfreude. This is the time to be pastors.
Liberal Mormons: This is not the time for us to enjoy a nice cup of schadenfreude. This is the time to be pastors.
Depression and suicide are unusually high in Mormon-dominated Utah. A new scientific theory suggests it's not caused by the culture, but the landscape.
In a major announcement today, the LDS Church reversed an age-old ban: Mormon women with children under 18 can now teach full-time in the Church's Seminary and Institute systems.
A number of Mormon blogs and websites discussed the polygamy statements when they came out in October. So why did it take the mainstream media three weeks to pursue the story?
I prefer answers to prayer to be delivered at regular intervals by owl post, or possibly skywritten over my house. But what happens when God is silent for months, or years, or even a lifetime?
Last night, Mia Love made history. I disagree with her positions on guns, healthcare, education, and just about everything else, but the woman has moxie. I'll give her that.
I don't know what it's like to be gay, but I do know what it is to feel like a freak in the heart of Mormondom, a fellow castaway on the Island of Misfit Toys.
Mormons teach universal salvation and stress love for all . . . and also claim that the LDS faith is the "only true and living church" on the earth. Which is it? Can it be both?
These episodes don't happen very often anymore, more than a year and a half after losing Mom. But the grief is always there, gently submerged, biding its time.
"For me, heaven is just as inconceivable without my friends as it is without my family," says guest blogger Mette Harrison. "If Christ viewed friendship as one of the greatest loves, why wouldn't we Mormons think the same?"

Neighbours on night patrol aim to reclaim streets from muggers
Related Articles
Published: 19 December 2011
Up to a dozen neighbours in Bonnington Square, Vauxhall, have patrolled the area with lanterns and created a telephone helpline which lone women can call to be escorted safely home.
Organised by resident Marie Johnson, they decided to "reclaim the streets" after reading in the Standard about patrols to beat the so-called Pimlico prowlers, street robbers who prey on women.
Latest police figures show a rise in muggings in all but two London boroughs, while burglary rates are also rising across most of the capital.
Bonnington Square has a higher crime rate than the London average.
Police and a local councillor joined the neighbours' patrol last week and helped them to install a new security light. Charlie Boxer, proprietor of the local Italo delicatessen, said: "There's a real display of willingness to stand up to the muggers through people power.
"Quite a few young women have been punched in the face and had their bags snatched. We've got a very active community who were very troubled and wanted to do something."
Resident Draeyke van der Horn, 42, a chef, said: "The incidents happened in areas that were quite well-lit. One lady was attacked as she walked into the square. Two men were trying the handles of cars and then they robbed her of her bag. Then last week a couple were held up in the same place. They think the mugger had a gun.
"It seemed like we had a whole spate of thing that happened in a short period of time. Pizza delivery men were also attacked and the food was stolen.
"On Thursday night, everybody came out with candles and hot drinks. We're not going out there to catch people, it's about reclaiming the streets and hoping it will put people off coming here to commit crime."
Scotland Yard admits it is struggling to combat the rise in street robberies. Commissioner Bernard Hogan-Howe told the London Assembly last week: "We've got a challenge at the moment around robbery, particularly street robbery."
Latest figures show the total number of muggings has risen by more than 16 per cent on last year, while burglaries have increased 7.5 per cent. The statistics also show a rise in pickpocketing.

The lawsuit that led to the creation of the modern behavioral health care system in Maricopa County has created what many experts say is an artificial set of standards that ignores the real needs of patients.

Tags: Valentine
This weekend, lovebirds of all shapes and sizes will celebrate their affections with chocolates, flowers and diamonds (wishful thinking?!...just kidding!). For my darling and I, Valentine's Day has always been the perfect excuse to squeeze a show into our frequently crowded schedules. A few years ago, we caught the enchanting Maria Friedman in one of the last Broadway performances of "The Woman in White." More recently, I absolutely adored Christine Ebersole in "Grey Gardens." (Yes, we have questionable taste in musicals where romance is concerned!) Even our first Valentine's Day together was steeped in theatrics, as we were performing in a production of "Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat" over the holiday. Thus begs the question: what should we see this year?! Just kidding! I'm more interested in how the magical world of theater has played a role in your Valentine's Day celebrations. Cute stories? I'd love to hear them! Post them here, or e-mail me: email@example.com and I'll compile the best results in an upcoming blog. Oh...and Happy Valentine's Day!

So, I'm working a new play about a man with multiple personality disorder, and I'm writing a book of seriously silly poems for kids. This morning, a cool title pops into my head. Here is th poem that goes with it. I think it's a good poem for actors and playwrights.
Today My Name is Astrid
(C) 2010 by Rodney Robbins
Today my name is Astrid
I am queen of all I see.
From the foot lights to the balcony,
Everyone's watching me.
Today my name is Astrid,
But yesterday was just fine:
I was Ace the race car driver,
Passing on an inside line.
Today my name is Astrid.
Before I was Jamal:
A camel driver from Cairo.
I was black and thin and tall.
Today my name is Astrid,
But my mother calls me Jane.
I asked her, "Where's your ticket?"
She doesn't need me to explain.
Today my name is Astrid,
And my mother is Tim Bucktoo.
Tim's the symphony conductor,
And gives me my opening cue.
Today my name is Astrid.
I sing like an angel and then ...
When the concert's over,
It's just me and mom again.

This morning I finished act one of "In the House with Many Rooms." I'm writing this one-set small-cast show by writing one scene at a time. It feels good to make progress most every day. Since I'm working with scene cards and know right where the story is going, all I need to do is get a few minutes of alone time and start typing. A scene takes a day or two so I can move the story along pretty quickly and feel a sense of accomplishment every time I work on the story.
Now, some people can't stand working with an outline or scene cards. Novelist Steven King certainly doesn't use an outline. Many novelist don't, but with the ti 90-120 minute time limit of a stage play, I almost think you HAVE to use an outline.
A play is not a novel, but like a novelist, when you work on a story every day, the pages pile up and pretty soon you have something cool to brag about. "Hey--Look what I made!" Milestones make playwrighting fun.

Perhaps it's not a connection you'd naturally make, but while sitting in the audience at the Miss America Pageant last weekend, I couldn't help but notice how well-represented Music Theatre International was! While watching these young women-- some of the finest America has to offer-- I was stunned not only by their intelligence, but by their theatrical talents, as well. Some of my favorite MTI shows were represented, and I'm sure some of yours were, too! Read on to find out who was "so much better" and who refused to "show off no more!"
Miss Kentucky, Mallory Ervin, placed 4th runner-up at the 2010 Miss America Pageant. For her talent, she performed "On My Own" from Les Miserables.
Miss Nebraska, Brittany Jeffers, was a Top Ten finalist at the pageant and performed a jazz dance to "So Much Better" from Legally Blonde.
Miss New Mexico, Nicole Miner, was also a Top Ten finalist and performed "Somewhere" from West Side Story during the talent portion of the competition.
Miss Massachusetts, Amanda Kelly, performed a vocal/musical theatre dance to "Show Off" from one of our favorites, The Drowsy Chaperone.
Miss Alabama, Liz Cochran, did a beautiful lyrical/modern dance to "He Lives in You" from the Disney Broadway classic, The Lion King.
Having the opportunity to see the pageant live and in person was an incredible treat. These are women of style and substance... and their taste in musicals certainly doesn't hurt! For more on the pageant, visit missamerica.org.
(A special "thank you" to Julius Tolentino, a volunteer for the Miss Virginia Organization, for his beautiful photography.)

Well I have officially finished my "Magic to Do" contest entry. It didn't turn out as good as i had envisioned but I'm still proud of it regardless. You can check it out here.
Opening night for wizard of oz went pretty well. The show has been getting really good reviews. Tomorrow we perform during school for the intermediate school kids. Thursday night starts the second weekend of shows. The Tommy Tune judges also come that weekend. We are still adding and working on things. In fact, I've got to head off to rehearsals!
Until later!

Welcome back to another week at Guys & Dolls.
This week is our schools Choir trip to Disney for a music performance(Band, orchestra, and Choir). So, we're taking a hiatus for the weekend.
The girls have rehearsal this week, between a vocal rehearsal, a spitzprobe with the orchestra, and then a blocking rehearsal in MINK. So the girls have a short week.
Meanwhile, the guys have off. Lets see how many of the freshman boys either A) Loose their scripts B) Forget their dance moves or C) Disapear into a black hole.
We'd love for C to happen.
In other news, our school has had its 7th or 8th (I stopped counting after 3) bomb scare. Our principal has said that school activities will be cancled.
We hope that our New York adventure will not be cancled.
The cast members going to Disney will be having a rehearsal in the Magic Kingdom (RANDOM DANCING!)
Updates after the Disney trip and on a fun rehearsal process when we return!

So tomorrow is opening night for our schools 3rd musical production, THE WIZARD OF OZ. It will be our second entry into the Tommy Tune awards. Everyone is going crazy! The show is really coming along but there are a lot of little things that still need to get done before we open.
Personally, I'm most worried about my quick change at the end coming from Scarecrow to Hunk. We cut quite a bit of the music for the cyclone scene so I REALLY have to hurry. We even made a chart so that the costume is removed in a certain order.
Opening night is always crazy for every show I've been in but this one takes the cake. I'm also going to be filming an opening night blog video to enter into the MAGIC TO DO video contest.
Well wish my [sluck]!

I believe that one way to make more money as a playwright, is to write more plays. I also believe that acting workshops and playwriting classes soak up fresh material like sponges. So, how to get your plays out of your head FAST?
In my experience, straight plays are a LOT easier to write than musicals. The flip side of that coin is that based on Broadway sales figures, musicals make a LOT more money than straight plays. In general. Either way, you still want to get those ideas out of your head and onto the page efficiently.
My suggestion? Scene cards.
"Scene cards" are 3x5 index cards with a scene location, characters, action and maybe a BIT of dialog.For example:
If you find yourself wishing for 5x8 chard, you are putting too much information on there.
I think scene cards are used more in film writing, but they work great for stage plays as well. Who says you need 75 scenes to tell a good story? Not at all. You need enough scenes to tell the story you need to tell. For my new stage play, "In the House of Many Rooms," I found I could tell the whole story in 20 scenes.
To help me get the story out of my head FAST, I'll write down all the scenes I know, then I'll write any scenes I need to fill in the gaps. Next, I read through the scene cards and see if I can tell a complete story from start to finish--just from my scene cards. When the story is working in my head, and on my scene cards, THEN I'll start writing. It's pretty easy to do a scene every day or two. Even a long, complicated scene shouldn't take more than a week. Then you just keep rolling.
I don't stop to worry about the story, the value, the theme, if I can really set a scene at a waterfall, or how I'll sell the play--I just write it all down quick as I can. Don't stop to dream up the subplot, if you didn't already do that with your scene cards, you can easily do it LATER, after you've finished writing the main story line. Don't second guess your choice of material, or your place in the universe, just write!
I'll do a quick read of yesterdays work, but basically I don't edit till I'm done writing. Then I go back, read and edit and start thinking about what kind of pizza to bring to the table reading.

Kenyan police said on Friday they shot and killed two armed men suspected of planning an attack on a ferry in the port city of Mombasa after one of them tried to hurl a grenade at approaching police.
Mombasa and the coastal region has been struck by a series of attacks that have killed dozens of people in recent months. The worst shootings have been on the north coast, but Mombasa has been hit by several bomb attacks.
Somalia's al Shabaab Islamist group has claimed many attacks, but the government has blamed some of the north coast raids on local political networks, leaving many Kenyans confused about who is responsible and angry at security failures.
Police believe the two killed on Friday might have been planning to attack the busy Likoni ferry that plies the channel that lies between Mombasa and the south coast.
The men were travelling in a public minibus heading towards the ferry around the peak time of 6 p.m. (1500 GMT) when they were approached by police.
"When they sensed police had cornered them, one drew a grenade and tried to detonate it, but he was shot and killed before he could do so. The other had a pistol and was also killed," Mombasa County Commissioner Nelson Marwa said.
"We think they may have been planning to attack passengers on the ferry," he told journalists at the scene.
The Likoni ferry transports thousands of passengers daily from their homes on the south coast to Mombasa for work and back. It is also the main route for tourists heading to and from the airport to hotels on the popular southern beaches.
Several Western nations have warned citizens about travel to some areas of Kenya, including Mombasa. The attacks combined with advisories have hammered the once-vibrant coastal tourist industry.
"Today there would have been a tragedy on this ferry had the police not noticed these suspects and acted quickly. They have saved many lives," Emmanuel Kimoto, a ferry guard, told Reuters.

SALT LAKE CITY — Schools may soon be required to notify parents if a child threatens to commit suicide or is involved with bullying, cyberbullying, harassment, hazing or retaliation.
On Friday, the House passed HB134, which requires that schools notify parents of such behavior and collect a signed statement from parents acknowledging they were notified. The bill, sponsored by Rep. Gage Froerer, R-Huntsville, also allows local school boards to create their own notification process.
The legislation passed with a 66-1 vote and will now head to the Senate.

Remember to allow space around your table saw for working with eight inch sheets of plywood. This means allowing for space in front of and behind the blades, as well as to the left side of the blade. It's usually not necessary to work past the fence so you can use the space to the right of the table for another tool, such as a miter saw.
The miter saw usually cuts long pieces, so it needs clearance from the front and back, just like a table saw.

Why we are all becoming 'Latin lovers'
Last updated at 22:53 27 November 2006
As a new book on Latin has become a surprise Christmas bestseller. It's author shares with us 'Ut amator latinus sis', which means, if you'll forgive the pun, 'How to become a Latin lover':
Being savaged by Monty Don is not too bad, really - a bit like being smothered in the furry arms of a tousle-haired teddy bear. All the same, when the TV gardener attacked me a few days ago for perpetuating a class war by promoting Latin, I thought it was a bit much.
I was on Radio 4 discussing my book about Latin, in which I attempt to explain my love for the language - a book which, to my great surprise, has become a Christmas best-seller.
Monty Don's point was that Latin has been used for centuries as a sneaky way of making the middle classes feel more elite; and of putting down the working classes who couldn't get a decent education.
He's certainly right that some people use Latin to show off: barristers with their actus reus (guilty act); gardeners with their digitalis purpureas (fox gloves). And one should be suspicious of those who call more than one genius genii or refer to the auditoria in the local cinema.
But anyone can be annoying with their knowlby Harry Mount edge, using it for squashing people instead of informing them. That's not the same, though, as saying that Latin was intentionally used to exclude the poor from a proper education, as Monty Don suggested.
Until successive Conservative and Labour governments did their best over the past 40 years to dismantle grammar school education, Latin stood alongside other arts subjects - English, French, History, take your pick - as perfectly normal for bright pupils of any class to learn.
It's only since class war was declared on grammar schools, and since Latin has, as a result, retreated to public schools and a dwindling handful of grammar schools, that the language has become the elite subject attacked by Monty Don - who was himself lucky to benefit from a classical education at £24,000-a-year Malvern College and Cambridge.
In 1960, 60,000 children did Latin O-level. Now, just 10,000 do the more basic replacement, the GCSE. And, of these, in 2004, only 3,468 came from state schools.
That slump is the biggest for 500 years. Until the 1900s, classics had been the staple diet of basic British education for half a millennium.
But just because our philistine government has taken away the opportunity to learn challenging, improving subjects at state-run schools, it doesn't mean that people shouldn't go looking for that improvement themselves.
That's why my new book on Latin has been doing so well, selling over 1,000 copies a week. It fills a small hole in the yawning gap hollowed out in the British education system.
Fifty years ago, my book wouldn't have found a publisher. The basic Latin introduction it provides would have been taught as a matter of course in any grammar school in Britain.
No longer. As last week's Ofsted report showed, more than half of England's schools are failing to provide children with a good standard of education. A third of a million children leave school every year without a basic understanding of maths and English.
This is why there is a boom in self-help books such as mine, and Eats, Shoots And Leaves, Lynne Truss's surprise hit of Christmas 2004, which instructs you about grammar and punctuation and has now sold three million copies. The success of authors like us depends on education's failure.
My book is supposed to appeal to anybody who's interested in Latin - whether they have done a lot of it, a little or none at all.
I've lost count of the number of people who have told me they're buying it for their children because those children aren't getting the education their parents took for granted a generation ago.
I was lucky enough to start learning Latin at the age of nine. Yes, there were a lot of rules and words to learn, but the point about Latin is that they are simple rules and familiar words for a nine-year-old to understand.
The nine-year-old brain is particularly good at absorbing information. Once you know Latin, you remember it for good. It's always there, as a framework to underpin your understanding of English.
As a child, I remember particularly enjoying learning how English words derived from Latin ones.
I loved discovering that dominoes are derived from dominus, meaning 'master'. The hoods worn in 1710 by Italian priests were called dominoes. Black, with holes cut into them for the eyes, their name got passed on to the black rectangular playing blocks with their white dots.
How exciting it was to discover that the word 'candidate' came from candidus, meaning 'white'. The term emerged because Roman candidates for election wore togas covered in white chalk to make them stand out.
And what a pleasure it was when you discovered a word with two Latin ancestors, like ' regicide', from rex or regis, meaning 'king' or 'of the king', and caedo meaning 'I kill'.
The fact is that Latin is the most influential language in the history of civilisation - it's something which shouldn't be restricted to an elite. Know a little Latin and you open up 500 years of English literature (as well as a thousand years of Latin prose and poetry).
Latin not only helps you with simple things like the storylines of English literature, so heavily based on classical stories. It also helps you to understand the classically-schooled minds of those who wrote great English literature - for half a millennium up until the 19th century, Latin was the mark of the educated man.
Knowing Latin is like sticking on a pair of X-ray specs. Suddenly you expose the Roman layer that lies beneath the skin of modern Britain; and not just modern, elite Britain, as Monty Don would have it.
With Latin and its history behind you, you end up seeing more everywhere - not only in English literature, but in the way our buildings are built, the way we talk.
The most obvious legacy the Romans left us after their two invasions (Julius Caesar in 55BC, then Claudius in 43AD) was our language. If you understand Latin you'll never leave a sentence dangling in thin air, without the right verbs, nouns and adjectives in their proper place.
You'll also know how those words have changed since the Romans used them. And, if you know exactly how they've changed, you'll know how to use them better.
The father and son writers Kingsley and Martin Amis once had a good row about the word 'dilapidated'. Kingsley said you should use the word however you wanted. His son insisted on sticking to its exact sense: from lapis, meaning 'stone', dilapidatus means 'having stones removed'.
According to Martin, you should really only use it strictly - in the sense that a part has been taken away from the whole.
So Martin Amis acknowledged that you could say that the Parthenon was dilapidated, because the ancient Greek temple had lost lots of its stones in the last 2,500 years. But he wouldn't call, say, the Royle family's sitting room dilapidated because, although run down, it remains structurally sound.
It's a silly row that demonstrates a serious truth. You drive better if you know how a car works; you handle language better if you know how it's built.
And no one would say that knowing how to handle the English language is a thing that should be restricted to an elite, would they?
