How Limbaugh Engages Women on his Best Day
"I love the women's movement — especially when walking behind it."
– Rush Limbaugh on Fox News' "Fox & Friends," Feb. 3, 2010 (via LAT)
With Limbaugh in the headlines for misogyny, calling a Georgetown law student a slut and a prostitute for defending medical insurance coverage for contraception, I thought: surely Rush can't be that screwed up when it comes to women, can he? For an alternate view, I sought out the best visual evidence I could find illuminating how Rush could subsume himself to, and honor a woman. The photos I'm drawing from come from an twenty photo online photo album on Rush's Facebook site, posted a-year-and-a-half ago, titled: "Rush & Kathryn's Wedding."
Hand-picked for the public, some things seem to come out a little funky, however.
You'd imagine a wedding album — especially a PR-version — would amplify the chemistry of the couple, and above all, allow the bride to shine. It doesn't exactly plays out that way, though, the album feeling as much like a vehicle for Rush, as you see above — or, maybe Rush and Elton, the latter the subject of almost half the photos.
If there isn't one photo in the album that amplifies the chemistry of the couple — one that highlights the betrothed exchanging looks in a knowing moment, for instance, that we can also be privy too — these two are probably most representative of the matrimony.
Rather than celebrating a union, we get Rush (looking off this way while Kathryn, in her own bubble, demurely looks down) signaling that he has scored somehow.
A variation on the last pic (there's getting and and there's getting-got), we see another demonstration to the crowd. In this case, far from reflecting something mutual, Rush emphasizes his submission allowing his bride to win the prize.
Beyond his verbal eruptions, the world has no access to Limbaugh's day-to-day treatment of women. Taking the most favorable "data" available, however, you can see that his engagement with women is a lot less about common ground than about achievement, possession and "excellence in broadcasting."
Update: In an article cutting deeper to the bone, Modo reminds us this is Rush marriage #4.

Apple shrinks battery size even more for smallest iPhone ever
Send this to a friend
- Sarah Drake
- Contributor- Silicon Valley Business Journal
Apple Inc.'s rumored iPhone 6 is now expected to carry an even smaller frame as the company focuses more on slim contours, a move that raises the difficulty level for component makers as they reduce the thickness of battery pack, CNET reported.
The next-generation 5.5-inch smartphone from Apple, which may already be delayed because of issues with the in-cell touch display panel, will now house a battery with a thickness of only 2 millimeters versus the current iPhone 5 battery size of 3 millimeters, according to the article citing a report from Taiwan-based media outlet Digitimes.
The switch to smaller components such as panels, chassis and battery packs for the iPhone 6 is challenging Taiwan-based component makers faced with designing for the thinnest Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL) smartphone to date. Creating a new backlight is also an issue.
Dates floated for the new iPhone's release have fluctuated for months, with the latest report saying the 4.7-inch iPhone 6 will debut in August and the 5.5-inch version will launch in September.
Cupertino, Calif.-based Apple is making a foray into the larger-smartphone market to better compete in China and with rival Samsung, which already sells large-screened phones.

Winnipeg Free Press - PRINT EDITION
Who were the victims?
Lorna Blacksmith
She was a young woman with a future who was "full of surprises" -- and she was cut down in the prime of her life.
That's what a devastated Lita Blacksmith told Justice Rick Saull in a written impact statement filed in court.
"I still believed in my daughter a lot," Lita said.
"She had a future to move on to. I very deeply loved her a lot and we made promises together that our lives will get better," the mother wrote.
Lita described Lorna as a caring young woman, a "beautiful brat" whose tragic death has left her sleepless and empty.
"I always used to tell her to be careful out there in the city, but then she always used to say: 'Mom. I know.' I know I always felt better in the way she said it," wrote Lita.
"I wish that she were still here so I could sleep peacefully with her by my side," the mother wrote. Finding out from police in June 2012 that her missing daughter had died was "the saddest day of my life," Lita wrote.
Carolyn Sinclair
There's no single memory Amanda Sinclair has of her slain sister that stands out above the others.
"There's a lot of memorable moments," Sinclair told the Free Press on Thursday. "She's my only sister and we were always there for each other."
Carolyn Sinclair was a mom of two who was a "very sensitive, loving, caring person," said Amanda.
The Sinclair family grew up in the West End, where they lived their entire lives.
All three kids in the family had a good foundation to build on, said Amanda.
Carolyn kept plugging away at school after giving birth to her first son.
"Sadly she fell into the cracks of another way of life," Amanda said.
"She had a very sensitive side. That's what kind of made her gullible in life," she said.
If there's two things that stood out about Carolyn, Amanda said, it was her smile and her laughter.

No, I mean North Korean.
"In a bizarre twist, the chairman of IAL's corporate parent IAP Group, Park Sang-Kwon, is also the CEO of a car company with production facilities in North Korea. Not only is he an informal spokesman for Kim Jong-Un, but here is with the North Korean leader on "Victory Day" and is (sic) honorary citizen of the DPRK." (from the cite above, links omitted)

A better story, though older, about this contract. The company is linked to a North Korean firm, per the article.
An aside, the views are my own. I used to run one of the vehicle processing centers for the military. If a POV was delayed I took it personally contacting the member and working things out to the maximum extent. Even during contract changes we did not have the problems that are currently reported (though there were some glitches).

With the carrier, in the old days, the cars were carried on a space available basis with the proviso that, in an emergency, the cars would be subject to disposal for flight operations.
There is a story about one such car, a brand new one, where the carrier had to go for flight ops. Cars were jettisoned. The owner of the new car made a last request, could he use the catapult system to jettison the car. Request was approved.

A few facts about the "Retirement Plan":
Mr. Rubio, and many others, are confusing the TSP with the retirement. TSP is the 401 (k) like component of the federal retirement, there is also a traditional pension component which he is NOT talking about. The TSP requires that the employee take a percentage of income (some of which is matched by the government) which is invested in a variety of funds which the employee chooses (L fund, I fund, G fund, F fund, C fund). All have risk, I, C, and L are in stocks, F and G are in bonds. All the literature emphasizes the risks associated with each.
Regarding the comments about using the funds as a slush fund, the funds (currently) can not be used that way, unlike the retirement funds from the old system for federal employees.

The act is called the Jones Act and has been law since 1920. Any shipper who did not know of the law should not be considered reputable and should be investigated for fraud and incompetence, as well as any foreign flag ship which willingly takes on such a charter. Cabotage is well known within the maritime industry worldwide, and is not limited to the United States (although the US is more restrictive since it requires a US built ship or barge). This is not a union thing at all, although unions may support it.
It is also not confined to the maritime industry. When was the last time that you had the opportunity to fly on a Liberian airline when you were flying cross country, airlines must also adhere to cabotage rules. Mexican and Canadian truckers can deliver to US facilities but they can not carry cargo between two US cities, nor can you ride a Canadian bus line between two US cities.
The difference is that you must have a US built ship, but the plane, truck, bus need not be US built.

I remember being stuck in the ice in June of 1979 on Lake Superior, on one of the ore boats. The USCG cutter that was breaking ice for the boats was also stuck, the ice was piled up to some nine feet (not the whole lake, but there were still floes in June).
The picture of the row of boats above brings back memories.

BevMo is a private company which will be penalized (heavily) if they sell to a minor, even one with white hair. It is a crime to sell to a minor and the clerk is subject to prosecution.
If we expand that concept, if an election judge, clerk, or whatever allows a single person to cast an illegal ballot subject that person or persons to the full wrath of the state. Include the use of a phony voter (underage, foreigner, felon, or such), set up one or more judges, and then take them down just like a liquor store clerk.

History lesson:
Back in 1985 or so there was a hijacking of a ship, the Achille Lauro, in the Mediterranean. One American, Leon Klinghoffer, was killed and the hijackers got away (for a time). Knowing what flight they were on Mr. Reagan sent up fighters to (politely) request that the Egyptair plane land at a NATO base in Sicily and give up the hijackers. The Egyptian pilot complied. The hijackers were later tried.

Personally I would haave presumed that the New York State Barge Canal would be the first part considered (may not be wide enough, at 40 feet but elevating it on the barge may allow the added width).
There have been other notable moves to and from Chicago over the years. Manitowoc WI built submarines during WW2 which were sent downriver (to get under some of the bridges they put a good sized list in the boats). Several ore carriers came up the rivers, they cut off the bridge and much of the superstructure so they would fit under the bridges.

Another way the Government is trying to ensure that your tax dollars are used wisely. Here GSA sold this facility of some 2.1 million square feet for $510,000. In the same general area the same government is now LEASING, at $61.5 MILLION a year a facility of comparable size (and from the California public employees' pension service).
"That is what some federal government officials are saying as they move workers into a new $863.1 million manufacturing complex built using a rare lease deal with a private venture.
In the deal, the U.S. General Services Administration agreed to lease five buildings on a new 185-acre campus in Kansas City, Mo., for $61.5 million annually for the next 20 years.
The National Nuclear Security Administration is moving into a new leased complex in Kansas City, Mo.
The property will be used to make nonnuclear weapons parts for the National Nuclear Security Administration, which manages the U.S. nuclear-weapons program. It includes 1.2 million square feet of space where nonnuclear parts and components will be produced as well as 330,000 square feet of office space."

The artificial insemination was actually a side issue. As they taught us in Catholic school having sex (and its consequences) is a sin, as is having a child out of wedlock.
Was there a reason that Ms Dias did not ask what the church teachings were (since the article states that she is not Catholic)?
An yes, it appears that it was the money.

Just wondering what would happen if Issa sent out a tweet right now stating "There is absolutely no proof at this time that David Plouffe is involved in the child pornography ring." Technically, it is as accurate as Mr. Plouffe's statements and just as misleading (I have no knowledge of Mr. Plouffe being involved, by the way).
Remember also that Harry Reid, per reliable sources, has not paid state income taxes for at least the past decade. He has consistently failed to produce his state income tax records to refute the charge.

Kahn, the Bristol-based low-end fiend and member of the Vessel-affiliated Young Echo crew, has announced plans to release two new tunes before the year is through with a forthoming 12" for Mala's Deep Medi label. As is true for virtually every release featured on the imprint, both the a-side "Dread" and the b-side "Late Night Blues" (which features vocals from Rider Shafique) are heavy endeavors. Kahn's two-track record is set to drop on December 5, but before then, you can peep a radio rip of lead cut "Dread" below.

Boyfriend Has HPV
"My New Guy Has HPV"
This week's confession comes from our anonymous Confession Booth group in the TrèsSugar Community. Weigh in with your advice below.
So I am seeing this wonderful guy, and he broke the news last night that he has HPV. He got it from his ex during the end of their relationship, and didn't show symptoms until they had broken up. He has not confronted her. No "thanks for cheating on me and bonus STD you lying b*tch." (My sentiments) He has done nothing. I see her all the time and suppress the urge to tear her a new one, but do I have any rights in calling her out? Do I follow his lead and do nothing? He is shy and clearly still hurt by how the relationship ended, and ashamed of having an STD. I'm not worried about the truthfulness of his story, but I feel like he deserves some answers
There's lots of cool stuff going on in our community — join it, check it out, share your posts or advice in the great groups, and maybe we'll feature it here on TrèsSugar!

Each Province & Territory has the latitude to reference or adopt CSA Z462 in whole or part into law.

Oddsmakers adjusting NCAA tourney faves, longshots
Feb 16, 2012, 3:05 PM EST
March Madness isn't just for teams in search of a title or people hoping to win their NCAA tournament pool.
Vegas also loves it.
Anyone taking note of college basketball odds before the season probably saw Kentucky and North Carolina as the sure bets. (We media types did too.) But as Selection Sunday nears, some oddsmakers have started to adjust their bets accordingly.
Take Sportsbook.com. Not long ago, Kentucky was 4/1. Now it's 2/1. UNC went from 5/1 to 8/1. (If you're a gambling man, those odds are probably a little more enticing, though I fully expect VegasWatch to weigh in with his smart bets weighed against kenpom before long.)
Kansas' odds have improved slightly (now 8/1), while Michigan State's have jumped from 20/1 to 12/1. Word's out on the Spartans.
But the wily fans may want to check out Baylor. Once a 10/1 bet, the Bears are now 25/1. That's same as Louisville, but with a Top 10 team. Hmmm.

Carmelo Anthony to miss Saturday's game vs. Cavaliers
Dec 15, 2012, 4:00 PM EST
UPDATE 7:30 p.m. ET: It's now official — Anthony will be out for Saturday night's game against the Cavaliers, according to multiple reports.
Carmelo Anthony went down hard in the third quarter of his team's blowout win over the Lakers on Thursday, and did not return after suffering a sprained ankle.
The injury is not believed to be serious, but Anthony is expected to miss Saturday night's contest against the Cavaliers to give it some extra rest.
And since we've already seen a similar strategy from Anthony and the Knicks this season, the decision makes some sense.
From Marc Berman of the New York Post:
Carmelo Anthony, nursing a sprained left ankle, is listed as questionable for tonight's game against Cleveland but is not expected to play as he tries to rests up for Monday when Jeremy Lin returns to the Garden.
"He'll be back out here shortly,'' Rasheed Wallace said. "It shows what kind of team we have [winning without him]. We did it before when he went down, with the lacerated finger. It brings us together more to know somewhere in the back of our mind we can't let him down and we can't have a lot of people think we're all Carmelo, all Carmelo.''
Anthony suffered a lacerated finger that kept him from playing in his team's win in Miami over the Heat. He may have been able to go three days later in Chicago, but gave it an extra day to make sure he'd be ready to face his former Denver Nuggets team.
He was, and he crushed them with 34 points, 11 of which he scored in the final period.
There's no doubt Anthony has something similar in store for Jeremy Lin when he returns to MSG on Monday as a member of the Houston rockets.

Kukla's Korner Hockey
Senators Have Some Work To Do

via Bruce Garrioch of the Ottawa Sun,
While the Senators owned the Montreal Canadiens in Round 1, they found out the Penguins are going to offer a whole different challenge and if they don't get their act together quickly the stay in the post-season won't be as long as they like.
"We all know we've got to have a better effort throughout than we did (Tuesday)," said captain Daniel Alfredsson. "There will be analysing going on from everybody and adjust for Game 2.
"I thought we did a pretty good job 5-on-5 but overall I don't think we can be happy with the game. We have a lot to be faster in our decision making for us to be a faster team and we weren't that (in this game)."
The Senators also believe they have to do a better job trying to get in front of goalie Tomas Vokoun.
"We have to be stronger in front of both nets: Keep them out of ours and get some better chances ourselves," said Alfredsson.

TEHRAN, Iran — Iran's President Hassan Rouhani called Western sanctions an "invasion" on Saturday after Washington imposed penalties on 25 businesses, banks and individuals.
"Sanctions are an invasion of the Iranian nation. We should resist the invasion and put the invaders in their place," Rouhani told officials in remarks broadcast by state TV. "We should not allow the continuation and repetition of the invasion."
On Friday the United States imposed existing sanctions on more than 25 businesses, banks and individuals suspected of working to expand Iran's nuclear program, support terrorism and help Iran evade U.S. and international sanctions. The move bars Americans from engaging in transactions with any of the designated parties, freezes their assets and blocks their property under U.S. jurisdiction.
Iran's foreign ministry spokeswoman, Marzieh Afkham, said the new sanctions would jeopardize a final deal between Iran and world powers, who are negotiating over the country's disputed nuclear program, the official IRNA news agency reported on Saturday.
"These actions have a negative and non-constructive impact on the trend of the talks," said Afkham.
"The Islamic Republic of Iran rejects any unilateral and self-serving interpretation of last year's Geneva deal," she said. "Iran strongly believes that the sanctions are against commitments made by the United States under the Geneva deal."
Iran's state TV also said the move violated an interim agreement reached with world powers under which Western nations agreed to ease sanctions in exchange for Iran curbing its nuclear activities. However, Friday's action did not constitute an expansion of the sanctions regime, but rather the enforcement of existing sanctions.
Western nations have long suspected Iran of covertly seeking a nuclear weapons capability alongside its civilian program, charges denied by Tehran, which insists its program is for entirely peaceful purposes, like power generation and the production of medical isotopes.
Iran and the P5+1 group of world powers — the U.S., Britain, France, China and Russia plus Germany — hope to reach a comprehensive nuclear agreement by November that would address Western concerns about the nuclear program and lift crippling international sanctions on Tehran.
Rouhani, a reputed moderate, was elected last year after promising to engage the West diplomatically in order to get the sanctions lifted. But he has faced criticism from hardliners who say he has conceded too much in the nuclear talks.

5 things to know about Florida's sales tax holiday

Retailers might need to drink an extra can of Red Bull to get through this weekend, as the 2013 Florida sales tax holiday kicked off today.
The holiday, which began today at 12:01 a.m. and ends Aug. 4 at 11:59 p.m., brings hoards of customers into shops to save on back-to-school items like clothes, shoes, supplies and, new to the lineup this year, computers.
So, why should you care? Because the holiday doesn't just benefit back-to-school shoppers.
Florida's sales tax holiday has made a positive impact by increasing revenue to the state, according to a Washington Economics Group report.
The increased spending during the three-day period in 2010 generated $115 million more in taxable sales and $293 million more in overall sales, the report showed. That comes to an extra $7 million in revenue to the Sunshine State, the Florida Retail Federation reports.
Want to know more about the sales tax holiday? Check out the slideshow for five quick facts on the popular shopping weekend and click here for the list of all tax-exempt items.

UK Government and tourism industry partner to boost the sector.
Tuesday, 24th June 2014
Source : British Hospitality Association
A partnership between the Government and the tourism and hospitality sector that will focus on improving skills, increasing the quality and quantity of jobs available and boosting enterprise in the industry was announced by the Minister for Tourism Helen Grant.
Speaking at the British Hospitality Association annual summit Grant said that the new Tourism Council an industry-led board of employers and leading players in the sector will share and develop best practice so that tourism in Britain continues to thrive.
The Tourism Council, which will hold its inaugural meeting next month, will be co-Chaired by the Tourism Minister, the Minister for Skills and Enterprise, Matthew Hancock and Simon Vincent, a senior industry representative from Hilton Worldwide.
Minister for Tourism, Helen Grant said
The tourism and hospitality industry helps us sell Britain, helps contribute to economic growth and helps drive investment. The Government is committed to working in partnership with industry to build on the success achieved in continuing to deliver further economic benefits for the UK economy and businesses across the country.
Skills and Enterprise Minister, Matthew Hancock said
Small businesses in towns and villages across the country are the bedrock of our tourism industry and an important part of the wider economy. We must do everything we can to ensure they have the right environment to thrive and grow.
This includes making sure that young people are equipped with the skills to work productively in this sector. Last year, there were over 27,000 apprentices in Tourism, Leisure and Hospitality roles and I am keen for this number to increase. This council will support the development of skills, the sharing of best practices and provide means for tourist businesses to innovate and grow.
The Council will be made up of 22 members representing industries engaged in transportation, hospitality, entertainment, travel, accommodation and services actively marketed to inbound and domestic travellers. Signed up members include VisitBritain, VisitEngland and the British Hospitality Association along with companies such as Whitbread, Easyjet and Expedia.
It will look at increasing the availability and take up of apprenticeships and improve training and development within the sector.
Simon Vincent, President, EMEA, Hilton Worldwide said
This is the first time we have had a cross-Government council looking specifically at tourism. The active involvement of both the Tourism Minister and the Minister for Skills and Enterprise means the council can focus on the key areas of skills and training and quality of service, in the first instance. Taken together, these things are central to helping deliver growth, competitiveness and innovation in our industry.
Ufi Ibrahim, CEO of the British Hospitality Association said
By establishing the Tourism Council, the government is affording the hospitality and tourism industry an equivalent voice to other sectors helping to drive forward the economy. We congratulate Helen Grant MP and Matt Hancock MP for making such a major and important reform, and we commit to working with the Council toward increased job creation and improved skills development.
The Tourism Council will meet every 3-4 months and builds on the work already announced by the Department for Business Innovation and Skills who earlier this year announced tourism and hospitality would be part of the trailblazers programme an initiative designed to develop a clear and concise apprenticeship standards throughout many industries in the UK.

Na Yeon Choi leads LPGA Titleholders tournament | Golf
U.S. Women's Open champion Na Yeon Choi leads entering Sunday's final round of the LPGA Titleholders tournament in Naples, Fla.
NAPLES, Fla. — So Yeon Ryu was rarely so nervous, with so many great players all around her.
She was in high heels, not golf shoes. She was giving a speech as the LPGA rookie of the year, not competing at the Titleholders. Compared with standing before a room full of high-profile players under bright lights, playing golf Saturday while trying to stay close to Na Yeon Choi and Ai Miyazato seemed easy.
"I was pretty nervous to prepare the speech," Ryu said about the Friday-night awards dinner. "After speech, I was so much relieved and I slept so well because I don't have to worry about speech thing. So maybe that's why I'm playing great."
She wasn't alone in that regard.
Choi overcame a careless three-putt on the third hole and was steady the rest of the blustery day at The TwinEagles Club. The U.S. Women's Open champion drilled a hybrid shot to 15 feet for one last birdie on the par-3 17th hole for a 3-under-par 69 that gave her a one-shot lead over Miyazato.
Miyazato (71) took two chips to get onto the green and made double bogey on the par-5 second, and then laid up into a bunker on the par-5 fifth to make a bogey and fall behind. She rallied with four birdies on the back nine to stay in the mix.
Right behind was Ryu, so relieved from the Friday-night stress she ran off four straight birdies on the front nine before she slowed on the back. Maybe there was a reason for that, too. The 22-year-old South Korean said her lower back tightened at the turn, which she said might have been caused by wearing high heels to the dinner.
"I'm not really big high-heel fan," she said. "Yesterday was a special day, so that's why I took a high heel. I think it looks pretty great."
Other tournaments
• Miguel Angel Jimenez of Spain shot a 2-under 68 for a share of the Hong Kong Open lead with Michael Campbell of New Zealand.
Campbell shot a 69 to match the 48-year-old Jimenez, the 2005 and 2008 winner, at 10 under. Italy's Matteo Manassero (64), coming off a playoff victory in the Singapore Open, was a stroke back along with China's Zhang Lian-wei (69).
Top-ranked Rory McIlroy of Northern Ireland missed the cut and said he will have a lighter schedule next year; he has played in 24 tournaments, the Ryder Cup and two exhibition events.
McIlroy said, "I've probably played an extra couple of tournaments too much ... "
• Defending champion Ian Poulter of England shot an 8-under 64 to take a one-stroke lead over Australian Adam Scott (67) after the third round of the Australian Masters in Melbourne.
Poulter was at 13-under 203 at Kingston Heath.
• Henrik Stenson of Sweden closed in on his first European Tour victory in three years, shooting a 3-under 69 to take a three-stroke lead into the final round of the South African Open in Johannesburg.
Stenson was at 16-under 200 at Serengeti Golf & Wildlife Estate. South African George Coetzee (63) and Swede Magnus Carlsson (68) were tied for second place.

I'm a huge Moore fan, but he would never get close. Jones had amazing speed, good power and a sturdy chin. Don't be revisionist. Jones did not have chin issues until Tarver stopped him.

It was probably a lot more to do with becoming unmotivated. Don't forget, he had been dropped and hurt pretty bad before by a guy who was never much more than a half decent contender well before he moved up to fight at heavyweight.
You just need to hit by the right punch. He had been dropped pretty bad before, and it didn't take moving up to heavyweight and back down again to do it. It just took a clean punch he didn't see at all. It wasn't even very hard. If that guy was punching harder and it was earlier in the fight, it could very well have been all over well before he got to the Ruiz fight.
It's not a hard punch. He just doesn't see it. It could have happened at any time in his career. He was very lucky it wasn't against a good fighter and he was very lucky it wasn't against a good finisher.
He's one of those guys that could always have been KO'd at any weight by the right guy. He just never met him early, which was due as much to his skill as to his era. He felt he had achieved everything after his heavyweight paper 'title' win and it would have been due as much as running into the wrong guy at the wrong time along with a decrease in training and determination.
I'm pretty sure that if he and Tarver had fought at any point of their careers three times, Tarver would have knocked him out, knocked him down or hurt him badly at some point in those fights.
It's been shown time and time again that if you meet the right guy, he can knock you down, or out, despite having a great chin.
Anyway, I think probably Jones would win by close UD.

Sadly we'll never know. Jones' chin truly does get overrated by some, who say it was pure iron in his prime, and underrated by many, who say it was glass. He's a funny one like that.

State Seeks To Prevent Falls By Older Ohioans
A state initiative to prevent falls by older Ohioans is aiming to warn shoppers of all ages what to look for and how to avoid falling hazards amid holiday shopping.
Public documents obtained by Ohio voter advocates show a key representative of U.S. House Speaker John Boehner was central in drawing the state's disputed congressional map.
As Ohio writes rules to govern its new casinos, some other states are changing their gambling rules to help increase revenue.
The Obama administration plans to promote gay rights as part of American foreign policy. Should US foreign policy include promotion of gay rights?
The $10 million loan got the unanimous support of the state board.
Many people move to the suburbs for bigger yards, better schools and less crime. But neighborhood developments are not immune to what is often thought as an inner-city problem: heroin. WOSU talks with one family whose teenage daughter is recovering from a heroin addiction.
