The Style Guy: May 2014
From going sockless to correcting someone's pronunciation, Glenn O'Brien has the answers
Bare Ankles Rankle
I get the dress-shoes-with-no-socks thing. And I even think it looks good. But how do you get around the inevitable stink that comes with socklessness?
You get it? I don't. I don't get a guy in a three-piece suit and monkstraps going foot commando. I kind of get it during the summer, because we don't want tan lines halfway up our calves. This is why shorty socks were invented. Once a women's item (my mom called them Peds), shorties have fully crossed over to the world of men. You can buy them without pom-poms on the heels, and they will afford the part of you that's inside the shoe all the protection against blisters, rank odor, and tinea pedis that a full sock offers.
- All suit wearers should don some sort of sock, but for business travelers, it's imperative.

I love reading other bloggers posts just as much as I do writing my own. My problem, however, is trying to find the time and the best system to enable me to do this… (more…)
Here's A Tip: You Take The High Road And I'll Take The Shortcut…
Are you lazy and always looking for a shortcut? If so, read on… (more…)
Snap & Zap: Then & Now…
For each Snap & Zap I will suggest a new theme so take a new photo or use an existing photo and edit it with any software you like, so…
- Create a new post showing the original
- What edits have you made?
- What software/techniques have you used?
- Link back to the current week's page
The theme for this "Snap & Zap…" is Then & Now.
There Is An App For That, It's Rubbish So I'm Creating My Own…
It's true these days that there "is an App for everything" and I've always wanted to create my own but never really had a proper idea – until now…
Get That Mouse Out Your House And Let The Cats In The Window!
"Can I draw?
No, not really but I do like to give it a go and The Indecisive Eejit's Cartoon Craziness Challenge couldn't have came at a more perfect time!
Why? Well, as you can see from the challenge she is challenging us to draw a cartoon cat which on it's own doesn't sound like perfect timing for anything. But, at work, I was challenged with producing and delivering a one hour training session on an introduction to using Windows and Microsoft Office…without using the mouse… (more…)
Why Is The Ribbon Called The Ribbon…?
Love it or hate it, there is no denying that Microsoft Office applications are now common place in almost every business environment.
So, here is a question. Why is the Ribbon called the Ribbon?
Who's On The Blog Box? It's Me…
Don't worry this isn't a post from me saying how great my blog is…
No, I discovered a website that reviews your blog and sends you a video of their comments and feedback – it's pretty awesome!
Try it yourself – go to Peek and give them your blog address and they send you the video feedback really quickly.
Here is my video of feedback…
Total Ellipsis Of The Heart…
I have been reflecting on my blog design over the past few days and it has become very obvious I have developed a particular theme. I don't mean theme as in visual styling of the blog, more the way that I title my posts, write my posts and even the title of my blog itself – "Steve Says…"
It's happened more by accident than by design but I use "…" in almost every single post's title and often within the posts themselves.
Is this grammatically correct? What does it mean? I wanted to find out more…
I call it "dotdotdot" which upon further investigation isn't really that inaccurate. Although, when I hear it inside my head it's more like this which is probably inaccurate on so many levels.
The correct terminology is Ellipsis, plural Elipses (apologies in advance if I get some of the tense wrong – I'm not an English teacher) and refers to a series of dots that usually indicates an intentional omission of a word, sentence, or whole section from a text without altering its original meaning.
That isn't really why I have been using them as I don't remove text, I add text and the dots to me are leading, trying to draw the reader into the rest of my writing.
So, reading that ellipses can also indicate an unfinished thought, a slight pause, and nervous or awkward silence fits more with why I am using them. More so the unfinished thought and slight pause rather than the nervous or awkward silence.
The ellipses can also inspire a feeling of melancholy or longing. I'm not 100% sure what melancholy means but I know it isn't good so I don't want that. Longing? Yes I would love to think that readers are longing to read the rest of my post.
Elipses can be used in the form of Aposiopesis which means you trail off into silence…
Aposiopesis are no use to me as who would want to read silence?
Ellipses were used in 20th-century fiction to denote expletives that would otherwise have been censored but when I use expletives I find it much more fun to use all the f*&$ing symbols I can find on my keyboard. They are also used in writing to build tension. Yes, that's what I'm trying to do – build my post up for readers to click on and then no doubt be disappointed…(that's melancholy with a hint of asposiopesis)
You can use them to say one thing but really imply something totally different without actually saying it. For example when Count Dracula says "I never drink …wine" the implication is that he does drink something else or when Justin Bieber says "I never smoke…cigarettes". I don't use them for that, I'm not a liar, vampire or d*&$ of a pop star.
I then read how ellipses are used in maths, on computer interfaces, in computer language and I got bored. The only thing I was interested about in terms of computers was "is there a keyboard shortcut?" and praise the Lord, there is! On most writing applications such as Microsoft Word if you hold down [CTRL] [ALT] & [.] you magically get the three dots. The fact that it doesn't work in WordPress and it's probably quicker just typing the three dots is irrelevant – it's a keyboard shortcut and I love them all!
That's the punctuation side of ellipses but the internet being the minefield of information that it is I soon went off on another little journey…(I'm leading you, come with me – it's fun I promise)
I came across the term Three Dot Journalism which was coined by Herb Caen – a journalist for the San Francisco Chronicle – to describe his style of writing. I wondered what his style of writing was and this paragraph summed it up best for me:
Herb Caen would talk about politics, then … then a trip to the symphony … then a guy who he ran into at lunch that asked him a question he had to think about until he got back to the office and wrote about it then … then something else entirely. Everything was different, every day was different, but the three dots held it all together. It was the glue that made it a newsworthy column and not just the ramblings of boy from Sacramento who was enthralled with the city of San Francisco.
I thought of my own blog posts and how different one could be from the next and decided that I liked Herb Caen's style of writing and I shall continues to use my Ellipses…now let's finish on a song…
Steve Joins The Stars Offering Their Top 10 Tips…
I read this article on the BBC News website today.
"Last year, some of the art world's biggest names handed out career advice in a series of article for the BBC News website.
Author PD James, designer Emma Bridgewater, Oscar-nominated screenwriter Tony Gilroy and Jason Bell, who photographed the christening of Prince George, all listed their top 10 tips for people hoping to emulate their successes.
They spoke of the benefits of hard work, valuing criticism, leaving your comfort zone and even going to the pub…"
I then thought that I would give this a go and give my top ten tips for why I think I am good at being an IT Productivity Coach…
1. It's not just Doctors that need patience…
I've been told on many occasions by people that they can't believe how patient I am.
They tell me that if they had to try to train someone like themselves then they would be grabbing the computer mouse from under their hands and using it as a weapon until they understood what was they were trying to be shown.
What do I have to say to that? Well firstly violence doesn't get you anywhere and secondly "keep calm and carry on" – you get to the same end result but you will get there easier, quicker and with acceptable blood pressure levels if you just have a little…patience.
2. Share the knowledge not your problems…
I love sharing information with people. Information that will help them and make their life easier that is. They don't really want to know if I'm trying for a baby or if my pet hamster just died. They might pretend that they do but they don't really. Don't treat people like "agony aunts" and just tell them what they need to know and save the rest for down the pub.
3. Empathise…
People may not want to hear my worries and problems but that doesn't mean that they don't to share theirs.
That's fine with me – sometimes people need a "sounding off board" and for someone just to listen, occasionally tilt their head and nod.
If I can make someone feel better just by being quiet while they talk and talk….and talk. Surely that's money for nothing?
4. Treat everyone the same…
From tea boys to the big boys and office secretaries to state secretaries – treat everyone the same.
At the end of the day if they can't use Microsoft Word then they can't use Microsoft Word and it doesn't matter if they are running the country or running to collect the lunch orders.
Everyone is equal in my eyes.
5. I don't want to know everything…
I've got a very small brain and I can't possibly know everything. I also wouldn't particularly want to know everything. If I don't know something then I'll be honest and say "I don't know…but I can find out and let you know". There's no point in pretending you know when you actually don't. If you step in dog s*** people can smell it, if you talk bull s*** people can smell it no matter how much sugar you sprinkle on the top of it.
6. Ask and you will receive…
I've never been the type of person who volunteers information about their life. Some people on the other hand are all "I've done this, I've done that blah blah blah". Yeah? Who cares? If people want to get information about me, from me, then they have to ask. Once they do then it's like a flood gate has opened and they might wish that they hadn't asked but since they have invited out the information then they can't complain when I'm talking about me.
7. Prepare…but don't over prepare…
If you are delivering a presentation or a training session – prepare, prepare, prepare. Know your subject, know what questions people might ask and know that things can and probably will go wrong. On the other hand, there are some things that you simply can't prepare for. You could spend hours trying to prejudge a situation then it turns out to be something different entirely and all that time you spent surmising rather than preparing was wasted time. Look at the Roadrunner cartoons, the Coyote would spend ages preparing something ridiculous without knowing for sure the Roadunner's plans and he pretty much always ended up blowing himself into smithereens. Don't be the Coyote, be the Roadrunner.
8. Sit on the fence…
Never offer an opinion. People might tell you this about that person and that person will tell you this about another person and so on and so on.
You might get a few splinters in your ass or a cold butt, however, it is definitely much safer sitting up on top of that big fence than getting involved in office politics.
9. Laugh at yourself…
Make yourself out to be more stupid than you actually are. In my case that's not really too difficult (see, I just done it without even realising).
Make yourself the butt of the joke.
If someone does something ridiculous, a simple "oh, I do that all the time" puts them at ease and immediately diffuses the situation. Obviously this depends on the stupidity of their actions – even I have my limits.
10. Have fun…
Since we spend most of our day at work then if you don't have fun when you are there then you really need to look for a new job!
I'm Steve And I Am An iTunes-a-holic…Part Two
The title of this post says it all – I am addicted to iTunes.
I am not ashamed of it and I will happily talk for hours about the hours that I spend on iTunes – either listening to my library, organizing it or just looking at how pretty it is.
Grab a glass of wine, put on some music and prepare yourself… (more…)

The Indians yesterday unveiled a Party Deck picnic area in right field and a Champions Suite in left field at the newly named Progressive Field. The Party Deck holds "about 400 people" and can be rented for group outings at $50 per person. The Champions Suite, which costs $10,000 to rent per game, is comprised of four suites converted into one "high-end area, with indoor and outdoor seating for 60" (Cleveland PLAIN DEALER, 3/26).
THE GREAT OUTDOORS: The CFL Toronto Argonauts, who play indoors at the Rogers Centre, "might get the outdoor stadium they've been searching for after all.'' Toronto Mayor David Miller yesterday said that he recently met with Argonauts co-Owner Howard Sokolowski and that it is "possible the team could be accommodated at BMO Field at Exhibition Place." BMO Field is configured for MLS' Toronto FC and "would not accommodate a regulation-sized CFL field," but Sokolowski said that "allowances might be made for a pre-season game." The Argos are entering the fifth year of their rental agreement with the Rogers Centre, which includes two additional five-year options (TORONTO STAR, 3/26).
PARKING PLUS: The Cowboys have added another parking lot for their new $1.1B Arlington stadium. Cowboys Owner Jerry Jones has "purchased more than a dozen parcels within walking distance of the stadium" from Blue Star Development Dir of Stadium Development Jud Heflin. The Tarrant Appraisal District said the land in '07 was valued at about $3.6M (FT. WORTH STAR-TELEGRAM, 3/26).
SHORTCUT: The Univ. of Oregon (UO) "plans to use a month-old rule to bypass the state's typical search process so a private firm can hire the architects and builder" who already have been working on the school's new basketball arena. UO General Counsel Melinda Grier said that hiring the firms without an open competition "would save money and promote continuity in planning and construction" of the $200M on-campus arena (Portland OREGONIAN, 3/22).

Now this is an awesome sub. I like the idea of these, and perhaps there are many in the Hells, though it really does not matter how many of them there are. They are the infernal medics.
And Wulf's comments on these along with curative spells provides an avenue for 'evil' clerics to have healing spells - instead of 'poof, you're healed' you summon one or more of these bad boys and they stitch up the damage. Since they are not enhancing, merely repairing, the impact may be reduced, but they would always scar badly when healed in this manner.

I really like this idea!
Regarding power levels, I would assume that the greater the sound, the greater the power, but I would also consider that the vessel containing the substance would be under stress. Perhaps not of equal intensity, but still increasing with the power level. As a result, truly loud sounds would potentially destroy the vessel, removing the 'filter' effect.

How would it be entertaining except by happen-stance? Did the mages also add a scrying enchantment so they could watch the antics of their victims?
I could see this being somewhat useful, but does not seem to be a terribly efficient means to defeat a mass of enemies. Mess up an individual badly without killing him, sure.

I do thing random items have their place, maybe not in a serious campaign. I've seem some pretty funny episodes come from these types of items (Wand of wonder & Deck of many things).
If there was more to the item then just a list of random effects, I think it would be better received.

I like the idea of bloodforging - is this a D20 specific element?

A former Shelby County Public School payroll clerk has been indicted on embezzlement charges, with a minimum theft of $80,000; the actual amount has not yet been disclosed.
"A Shelby County Grand Jury returned on indictment today," said Shelby County Commonwealth Attorney Laura Donnell Wednesday.
Benita W. Anglin, 54, of Frankfort, is charged with 24 counts in all, including 8 counts of theft by unlawful taking over $10,000 but under $1 million.
A group of about 20 residents of neighborhood on the outskirts of Simpsonville turned out Wednesday to voice loud disapproval of the way traffic control was handled during the first two weeks after the opening of the Outlet Mall of the Bluegrass.
The group has been dissatisfied with the results of recent road construction on Veechdale and Buck Creek roads, and several encountered huge backups trying to get back and forth from their homes during the first two weekends after the mall opened on July 31.
With only two weeks left to gather thousands of signatures needed to hold a wet/dry election for Shelby County, organizers are in dire need of volunteers.
Five thousand signatures are needed by Sept. 5, and organizer Katie Sjothun said that at last count she had just over 1,000.
With that date looming ever near, Sjothun has been stepping up efforts both in trying to circulate the petition and to recruit volunteers to help her do that.
When it comes to creative endeavors such as painting, photography, and being handy with a needle, Shelby County residents shone at the Kentucky State Fair this year.
From Brenda Lee in Waddy (knitting) to Donna Owen (painting china) and Patrice Payton (needlepoint) in Simpsonville, to Karen Collins (knitting) in Shelbyville, all earned several ribbons.
And Linda Sanford of Shelbyville stood above the crowd in the quilting competition.
Chosen from among 1,800 Kentucky Proud Farmers, Brooke Eckmann of Ambrosia Farm in Finchville, has been selected as one of three honorees for the 2014 Local Food Hero.
In its second year, the award recognizes farmers whom not only grow delicious food, but also contribute to their communities by conserving water, soil and wildlife.
"It's really unbelievable to me to be chosen from among the local farmers, let alone across the state, we have great farmers in the area," Eckmann said.
After a long anticipated wait, the Shelbyville City Council will finally take the next, and most important, step in exploring the concept of citywide garbage and recycling collection.
At Thursday's regular meeting, 6:30 p.m. at city hall, 315 Washington Street in Shelbyville, the council will review the final RFPs.
During a council meeting earlier this month, City Attorney Steve Gregory said that he expected to have the RFPs ready by last week. However, Gregory explained that there are some things within the RFP specs that still need to be wrapped up.
Shelbyville native Ruby Lewis is about to wrap up her latest venture, co-starring in the national tour of the Queen musical We Will Rock You, which opened last fall and will close this month.
Next on her horizon, she said – or least one of her next projects, as she is very active in securing roles in film, musical theater and other venues – is involvement in a theater group that she has been with in the past.
Seats were full and tensions were high Thursday night as more than a dozen members from Kentuckians for the Commonwealth and the Fairness Campaign attended the Shelbyville City Council meeting with an agenda of expanding discrimination laws to include members of the lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) community.
However, those supporters again left the council meeting feeling frustrated and left out.
A landmark church and several homes in Waddy escaped major structural damage Saturday when a water tower collapsed, spewing hundreds of thousands of gallons of water into buildings, uprooting trees and tossing large objects around like toys.
Tex Seph, pastor of Waddy Baptist Church on KY 395, said crews have been hard at work cleaning up debris from the church, which had eight inches of water in the basement, windows broken out, and a tree uprooted among other damage caused by the collapse of a 30-year-old water tower on the church grounds.
Tuesday was the last day to file in a few offices for the 2014 General Election – the seats with filing dates this month were school board districts 1 and 4, Simpsonville City Commission, Simpsonville Mayor and four soil conservation seats.
The race for Board of Education seats got the most attention, with Alicia "Ali" Parham and R. Rusty Tipton both filing in District 4, Tuesday and Richard Baltzell in District 1 on Monday.

Hoo Haven Open House Sunday, Nov. 6
Staff Report
Hoo Haven Wildlife and Education Center is holding its annual Open House from 1-4 p.m., Sunday, Nov. 6. The public is invited. There will be free tours and baked goods and popcorn for purchase.
Visitors will see the current improvement project, which is under way — an Aquatic Center for waterfowl and water-loving animals such as otters and beavers. A generous donation by Exelon has made building the Aquatic Center possible. The Aquatic pen will provide a climate-controlled environment with an indoor pool, which will give animals a better living condition while they heal.
Hoo Haven is off Route 75, west of Meridian Road, one-half mile west of the Pecatonica River bridge. The address is 10823 Cleveland Road, Durand. Note that there is road construction on Meridian Road, and it is closed from Route 70 to Cemetery Road.
For those who want to offer support at the Open House, 2012 Hoo Haven calendars will be available for $10 each. The four-color calendars feature photos of animals and birds that reside at Hoo Haven. Visitors may also wish to donate paper towels, 30-gallon garbage bags, dog/cat food, birdseed, nuts or meat (beef, venison, fish or poultry).
Hoo Haven is an all-volunteer organization and has served the northern Illinois area since 1979 by caring for injured, sick or orphaned North American wildlife. Once healthy, the animals and birds are released back into nature.
For more information, to schedule a program or group tour, or to make a donation, call (815) 629-2212 or visit www.hoohaven.org.

Amherst students show off poise, enthusiasm in speaking contest
From left, Kate Boyea, Kate Eastland, Kaitlin Griffin and Sean Corrigan, students at Amherst Middle School, receive awards during the school's annual Wells' Public Speaking Contest recently. (COURTESY)
The finalists from this year's contest were: fifth-grader Kate Boyea with her presentation of "Gingerbread Fred," sixth-grader Kate Eastland with "The Paper Bag Princess," and seventh-grader Kaitlin Griffin, with her personal memory of "The Juice Fiasco."

Students were required to choose a story or picture book that inspired them, memorize it and then perform it for their classroom before taking the stage in front of the entire grade level.
"The performances were exceptional. The students dazzled the audience with enthusiasm, poise and talent," said a release from the school. "It was an outstanding evening of excitement and entertainment, and we look forward to seeing what next year will bring."

› Find signed collectible books: 'Another Tale to Tell: Politics and Narrative in Postmodern Culture (Haymarket)'
Through his work as a fiction writer, critic and activist, Fred Pfeil has sought to extend the progressive possibilities within contemporary American culture. Idiosyncratic and provocative, Another Tale to Tell moves from evaluations of politically engaged texts and practicessuch as Hans Haackes deconstructive artwork, Chester Himes Harlem police thrillers, cyberpunk and the feminist science fiction of Octavia Butlerto considerations of the history, dynamics and potential of postmodern culture.
Pfeils work on postmodernity is distinct from the spate of their works on the subject in its insistence on the social base of postmodern practices within todays professional managerial class, and in his endeavour both to use and to criticize Marxist, feminist, psychoanalytic and poststructuralist thought in order to illuminate our present political impasses and openings.
From his audacious reading of the film Rivers Edge as the terminus of the vexed history of bourgeois narrative, and his analysis of Reaganite oedipality in Back to the Future, to his unsettling meditation on the poststructuralist paradise embodied in contemporary SF, Pfeil sorts through a welter of contemporary cultural texts and practices for the glimmerings of a postmodern narrative and politics that may truly be another tale to tell.

White Guys probes such topics as the rocknroll bodies of Bruce Springsteen, Axl Rose, and the late Kurt Cobain; the male rampage films Die Hard and Lethal Weapon and the films of sensitive transformation that followed in their wake; and the curious yet symptomatic activities of the mens movement whose rituals Pfeil has investigated firsthand.

811 N. Main St.
Santa Ana, CA 92701
Category: Retail
Region: Santa Ana
Vittorio DeSica's 1948 neo-realist classic is one of many in the Italian canon of cinema, offering a bleak look at the post-war working class and its trials and tribulations. We're not gonna sugar-coat this one for you, folks- this film is depressing. But bicyclists and family devotees everywhere can relate to the central conflict in the film: A poor father finally lands a job hanging posters in the city, but in order to keep his position (and be able to feed his family), he must have a bike for transportation. As he's busy hanging a poster, a teenage boy runs off with his bike, so he and his young son must track down the thief. It's DeSica's filmmaking genius that makes this movie powerful even today, and will remain so with every audience it reaches; all are encouraged to bike in to Bicycle Tree for this screening. Bike valet available.

VIDEO: Rand Paul Meets With Black Church Leaders In MemphisSubmitted by telepathic on Sat, 05/10/2014 - 06:24
- Login to post comments
Strategic appearances....fine okay.
But you will never win over black, minority, or working-poor voters until you address the severe income equality in this Country.
You cannot be for unregulated cartels, and lasse-faire capitalism, and also simultaneously be a friend of the working man (and woman). That won't work.
A true fiscal conservative, would deplore Corporate Welfare, and Rich guy Welfare ... while trying to protect the interests of the poor against the enormous power of the Oligarchs, and the Lobbyists.
Without opportunity for all, there is no hope and there is no change.
Please respond with your comments on the following.
1. [The RNC wants] fewer debates with moderators who will focus less on the their differences between them. [and] The RNC intends to punish contenders who break the rules.
2. In response to involvement and support of Cliven Bundy.[no audio of question]
"I have never been supportive of him as an individual or his comments, and particularly once he made started making those comments, there was no part of me that was supportive."
- Rand Paul
3. I felt like this was a hit piece and does not meet the standards of professional journalism. What do you think?
The cheese stands alone. The proof is in the pudding.
there's this
the old boy network is sure starting early. ron paul and his movement scared the bejesus out of them. they had to expose what vile creatures they were on national tv. they will do anything to have their way.
re Bundy: say what you will obama made a pretty good crack about rand doing a 180.
Love TMOT. He's the real deal.
Rand told them he wanted their vote. i don't think i've ever heard ron ask for anyone's vote and he started a world wide revolution, a movement that continues to grow, and from where i'm sitting is going to have no choice but to form a viable 3rd party. maybe 2020 snowden, johnson, swann, kokesh etc
onward and upward!
Reply to davyC
The good ole boys network is definitely part of the election rigging. Voting in an election is about as effective as voting yourself out of handcuffs or slaves voting for their own freedom. From where I'm sitting the only way out of this mess is to not associate with criminals. I don't know what to think of Bundy/Rand, but it doesn't look good from any angle.
TMOT is the real deal. That I 100% agree on 100% of the time.
The cheese stands alone. The proof is in the pudding.
not to mention
the criminal's diebold machines
It just goes to show that even someone who should know better than most that the MSM is not trustworthy, can still get sucked in. Somebody needs to tell Rand he got it wrong.
I trust TMOT before I trust Rand when it comes to judging Mr. Bundy.
Reason Magazine got used, too.
What do you think? http://consequeries.com/
Pandering to special interest
AND THE RNC. lol Anyone listen to the opener, that was better than the rest of the material. They are going to shut down argumentative debaters. lol
DNC Response: "to Memphis of all places"
We really need to get the approved list of places where we can go and reach out to those with whom we need to dialogue, and who would otherwise accuse us of ignoring them.
"Bipartisan: both parties acting in concert to put both of their hands in your pocket."-Rothbard
Pandering to special interest groups I see.
Seriously. When does he speak to brown church leaders, white church leaders, yellow church leaders, red church leaders? Why is it that those who scream about separation so much are the ones who make sure that the lines of separation are kept clear? And why do politicians cater to such notions.
Two words to the Hillary people:
Blue Dress.
No amount of SHOUT will get rid of it.
Agreed. Ron Paul said the same thing.
We are all humans with the same basic needs. Just most can't see that.
Would you
Post a video of Ron Paul speaking at an ALL BLACK conference please and prove it. WE know he never EVER did that. Only his retarded son.
Ron Paul spoke at an all
Ron Paul spoke at an all black high school in DC. imo It was one of his finest. I learned a lot about Ron Paul watching it.
Oh come on!
It's so obvious Republicans exclude non-white people (and it's intentional and unintentional) and what Rand's doing is needed.
A few Repubs simply want the GOP to remain the "white party". Most of the GOP I would say would love to see blacks and hispanics voting with the party, however they don't want to leave their little safe bubble and get their hands dirty to accomplish that vision.
When's the last time you've seen the GOP actively go to black neighborhoods and just listen to them? What about going to Los Angeles and engaging with the hispanic crowd? How many GOP events have you been to? I've been to a handful in the past couple of years. You know what I saw? White people, with the one token black guy some Repub brought along. Every single time.
You may not think that when Rand goes to historically black colleges, or speaks to a group of black ministers, or the NAACP President wanting Rand to speak is a big deal...but guess what? It is. It's a huge deal! You should know better than most that freedom is popular. Freedom isn't just special to white people, liberty is appealing to everybody when it's heard. And how are minorities going to embrace the message of liberty if liberty-lovers aren't going to these people and telling them about it?
BS! THat's a lie by the liberal left to keep you stupid.
And apparently it worked on you.
"It's so obvious Republicans exclude non-white people."
The fact you said that just makes you sound like a liberal shill. That is the same beaten horse that they always drag out. I guess that you will say the same thing about Libertarians since they oppose, supposedly, special treatment of groups.
I can't read past your above statement and find no need too since it pretty much sums up your liberal thinking. "We must cater to liberal special interests to support the Conservative cause." No wonder Conservatism is dead in politics. And no wonder that libertarianism is becoming just another extension of liberalism.
Lol, you can think whatever
Lol, you can think whatever you want of me. I don't care if you think I'm a liberal shill even though my history here proves other wise. But you could at least quote me in full, which I followed by saying most exclude minorities *unintentionally*.
But what GOP events do you go to? I went to the Charlotte the other week when Rand stumpe for Brannon... All white except one.
The Obamacare nullification rally in Columbia, SC ... No blacks. Wait there was one. No, actually they just walked through going to the counter rally on the other side.
SC Repub Party hosted a fundraising dinner that I went to last summer with Rand attending, and there was one black guy.
Like I said, most of the GOP unintentionally exclude minorities by not escaping their little bubble. Repubs must outreach to minorities, it's not the other way around where minorities outreach to Repubs. You may think minority inclusion in the GOP isn't a problem, but it is. I had an extensive conversation with an RLC leader a while back on this issue, and discussed some solutions to it.
No one
Has a problem with a colored GOP except for blacks last time I checked. Nobody forces them to vote. Also no one really cares.
It's that Rand just like all the people he is against, he does their same moves -- like singling out groups of people to talk to. So don't worry I'm sure he has all white meetings too.
How About Whites?
Most whites I know also feel that they have been excluded from the Republican Party.

How Transparency Can Transform School Culture
Leaders who demonstrate a continual desire to learn and connect whenever possible help set a precedence of transparency and innovation in a school's culture.
It's easy to get swept up in Chris Emdin's passion for hip hop, for learning, for science, for the success of each and every one of his students. It's this passion he brings to his work, the work he says can "change the world."

Many managers rely on gut instinct to make important decisions, which often leads to poor results. On the contrary, when managers insist on incorporating logic and evidence, they make better choices, benefiting their communities and the response teams serving them.
Emergency service folklore recounts the practice of firefighters growing long beards to help them breathe in smoke. The thinking was that they would dip the beard in a bucket of water, then clinch the wet beard between their teeth and breathe through their mouth, using the wet beard as a filter.
So far this month, most product changes have been around improving some of our exports, allowing for more flexible CSV exports and more consistent exports for Google Earth. We also added the Degree Minute Decimals coordinate system to our map picker as well as improving the address and reverse address lookups on our map picker.
An important outcome in the enactment of the Oil Spill Pollution Act of 1990 (OPA-90) was the requirement for vessels entering the US waters to have a listed Emergency Responder. OPA -90 was signed into law in August 1990, largely in response to rising public concern following the Exxon Valdez Incident.
Industrial Emergency Responders must be prepared to respond to fires of flammable liquid and compressed gases, hazardous material releases, rescues, security breaches and medical emergencies throughout oil, petro-chemical, pharmaceutical, pipeline, mining and port facilities.
Oil. That three letter word invites a flood of ethical and environmental debates. Behind all these conversations, the oil industry is working in the background to ensure the safety of its facilities, workers and the planet. Mutual aid is an agreement among emergency services to lend assistance across organizations.
A public safety official is most often the first on the scene when utilities are damaged, whether in response to a downed power line due to a collision or a ruptured natural gas pipeline caused by excavation works. Utility providers should also have experienced resources, capabilities, and products to provide a total response when disasters or emergencies strike.
Things change. It is a fact of life that the luster of new equipment is sure to fade over time. The purpose of inspection and maintenance is to identify whether response equipment can be operated, adjusted and maintained safely with any deterioration detected and remedied before it results in a health and safety risk.
Healthcare workers are among those most at risk of catching Ebola. Many healthcare professionals have knowledge of the virus, but very few have had to treat an infected patient. This has led to a knowledge gap on how to manage Personal Protective Equipment(PPE) when dealing with expected Ebola cases.
The exploration of the earths natural resources is a dangerous undertaking. Mining laws in developed countries require trained and equipped mine rescue personnel to be available on mine sites. Mine rescue competitions provide an invaluable opportunity for these teams to test their skills against industry standards.

November 28, 2014
HAWTHORNE, NV - Nevada Highway Patrol (NHP) troopers and the Major Accident Investigation Team (M.A.I.T.) are investigating a fatal rollover in Hawthorne.
The accident happened just after 1:30 am the morning of Friday, May 3rd on Armory Road. Photographs show it happened in front of the baseball diamonds.
NHP officials say early information shows a Ford F350 was going south on Armory when it drifted to the right and off the road. The driver then over-corrected, crossed the road, went off the east side of the road and hit a culvert. That's when the truck flipped and the driver was thrown out of the vehicle.
Emergency workers took the driver, 22-year-old Spencer Allen Hinton, to a hospital, where he died.
Investigators are still looking into the cause of the crash and encourage anyone with more information to call Trooper Chris Kelly at (775) 687-0400 (refer to case # NHP-130502168).

This is my fourth classic mercedes. It is a remarkable vehicle. A 280 hp V8 engine delivers seemingly endless power. Extremely quick from 40-100 mph. An excellent vehicle which is quickly becoming scarce. Build quality is typical MB of this era. Spare no expense teutonic quality. Buy one without ASR traction control if you can.

This car is so fun to drive with the

maintence, battery and set of tires,
this car has been perfect. I used to
own Cadillac's before I purchased the

One cannot possibly do better. Gas mileage identical to 320 except w/ferocious power! Some morons spend $20,000+ on Civic/ Accord, etc. Instead can have a monstrous fast, luxury liner built like a Mac for under $18,000. Extraordinarily reliable, incomparable in any fashion. 500,000+ SAME motor. A claim no other manufacturer can make. & they drive like new no matter miles. No squeaks, hesitation. Buying anything else is stupidity. Comparing them is like comparing a chalk board to a Pentium 4.

Following the off-season, the best in the business have roughly two weeks to hone their game in time for the first Slam of the year, and you can follow their progress live online thanks to these officially licensed live streams.Serbia's Novak Djokovic poses with the winner's trophy. (WILLIAM WEST/AFP/Getty Images)The Australian Open is the first Grand Slam tournament of the year and has a history dating back over 100 years. Since the beginning of the 1970s, the most important tennis tournament in the southern hemisphere has been hosted in Melbourne and since 1988, the "Aussie Open" has been held at its own location at Melbourne Park.It is one of four Grand Slam category tournaments, alongside the French Open, Wimbledon and the U.S Open. The stakes here are as high as they come in professional tennis, and for many this is the most significant event of the season. A number of players will consider stepping on the court at the Rod Laver Arena, effectively the centre court here, as a defining moment in their career.The Australian Open was first played in 1905 but didn't become such a famous international event for some time, due primarily to the geographical remoteness of Australia. The event had been held in a number of locations across Australia and New Zealand until in 1972, when it was decided that the event should be played annually in Melbourne. Victoria Azarenka of Belarus poses with the Daphne Akhurst Memorial Cup. (Lucas Dawson/Getty Images)Former winners of the Australian Open include legends such as Jack Crawford, Roy Emerson, Ken Rosewall and Rod Laver. The list of women's singles victors includes Daphne Akhurst, Joan Hartigan, Nancye Wynne Bolton, Margaret Court and Evonne Goolagong. The women's singles trophy is named after Akhurst, whereas the men's singles trophy is named in honour of Sir Norman Everard Brookes, who won the Australian Open in 1911.In more recent times the title has been won by Mats Wilander, Andre Agassi, Roger Federer, Rafael Nadal, Novak Djokovic, Martina Navratilova, Steffi Graf, Monica Seles, Martina Hingis and Serena Williams. Williams has won the women's singles five times, whilst Federer and Agassi both have four Australian Open singles titles to their name. Wilander's success is also particularly notable. He's the only player to have won the Slam on both hard and grass courts.Serena Williams of the US hits a return against Sloane Stephens. (WILLIAM WEST/AFP/Getty Images)For this tournament 2000 ranking points are on offer for the winner in Melbourne, which for many would be a career changer. To add to this, an Australian Open champion will win over 2 million Australian dollars. The tournament is renowned and followed globally, and is a must-see for any tennis fans. Attendances in Melbourne have gradually risen in recent years, and it's typical for this event to have an overall attendance record in excess of 600,000.Andy Murray of Britain reacts.

Rejecting a panhandler — and explaining it to a child
Advice columnist Carolyn Hax on helping a child develop a sense of charity, and on an uncomfortable encounter with a neighbor.
Syndicated columnist
Dear Carolyn
Adapted from a recent online discussion.
DEAR CAROLYN: Any suggestions for explaining to a 7-year-old why I don't give change to every panhandler who asks for it? I walk her to school through an urban area and have already deflected her questions about this more times than I care to admit.
DEAR D.C.: "I think there are better ways to help people than to give them spare change. For example, I give money to groups that help homeless people." Then do — have her watch you do it.
Even better, encourage her to go through her toys, books and clothing to see if there's anything she has outgrown and can donate. If you can up that to volunteering at a shelter, even better. Just not as a token on a holiday; that creates more problems for shelters than it does solutions.
If she asks more questions — like the obvious one, "Why?" — you can say that spare change might help solve an immediate problem, like an empty stomach, but that a good charity will help solve problems longer-term.
RE: PANHANDLERS: When I lived in New York, I got to know the regular panhandlers along my route to work. Instead of giving money, I made sandwiches and veggie strips. If I ran into one of them, I'd give it to them. If not, then I had veggies to snack on myself. I made peanut butter sandwiches since they lasted a couple of days without affecting taste.
I donate to United Way for the systemic help, but it was hard even as an adult to turn away from a plea for help. This way I didn't give money, but if they were really in need, I was able to feed them a single meal.
— Anonymous
DEAR ANONYMOUS: Very thoughtful idea, thank you. (Some outreach groups suggest sunflower butter due to allergy concerns.)
RE: PANHANDLERS: Since you're in D.C.: Do you ever pass people selling "Street Sense"? When you buy the paper (have the 7-year-old handle the transaction), you can then explain what "Street Sense" is (a newspaper produced and sold by homeless people), and how the person selling the paper is helping him or herself. In nearly every issue there is a Vendor Profile that you can share with her — about how "Street Sense" has helped the vendor get back in the game.
— Anonymous 2
DEAR ANONYMOUS 2: D.C.-specific, but the idea of supporting "get back in the game" programs is widely applicable, thanks.
DEAR CAROLYN: There's a woman who lives in my apartment building who is not just morbidly obese (because who isn't nowadays), but so obese that one almost can't help but at least glance at her when she's nearby. The other day, she caught my eye when I looked in her direction — I honestly didn't mean to stare, I just saw her peripherally and looked over — and the next morning I had a note from her in my mailbox accusing me of cruelty and being insensitive toward her incredible struggle as an overweight person.
Were I to write a letter back (I'm undecided, but considering it), what do you think it should say?
— For the Record, I'm Chubby Too
DEAR FOR THE RECORD, I'M CHUBBY TOO: "Would you like to come over for coffee?" It sounds as if she could use a friend.

The latest in a recent wave of films on past and present troubles in Central Africa, the new documentary King Leopold's Ghostsets itself apart with its historical scope. Based on a book by American journalist Adam Hochschild, King Leopold's Ghost devotes its first half to the era between 1880 and World War I, during which unknown millions of Congolese died as a result of the forced production of rubber. Sleeker and more ambitious than the 2003 BBC-produced Congo: White King, Red Rubber, Black Death, which focused more narrowly on long-suppressed Belgian atrocities of that era, King Leopold's Ghost traces the living legacy of colonialism, pausing to consider the 1961 assassination of Patrice Lumumba and the subsequent Mobutu years (there's a damming video clip of George H.W. Bush introducing the dictator as "one of our most valued friends"), and linking the country's recent civil wars to continuing economic exploitation. Overstuffed with information on everything from the importance of coltan mining to the minutiae of recent U.N. investigations, the last half-hour should be expanded into its own movie.
