The difference between the first and second time West Brunswick and Jacksonville's soccer teams faced off was this time, the match had suspense.
The Lady Cardinals won 4-0 last Wednesday night, with their first two goals scored on beautiful shots and their second two on controversial no-calls. The first time the teams met this season, Jacksonville cruised to an 11-0 victory.
"It was a good game," Jacksonville coach Dave Miller said Wednesday night. "West Brunswick is much improved from the first time we played them."
West Brunswick's tennis team closed out its season Monday falling 9-0 to a traditional powerhouse.
"We played one the strongest teams of the region in New Hanover, and they played up to their capabilities against us," West coach Bob Bell said. "They are a very polished, well-coached team, and we'll probably see both them and Hoggard in the upcoming 4A playoffs. It is a shame that one of those teams may not get in.
Whiteville's Michael Wright had a no-hitter going until South Brunswick's Ryan Morgan doubled in the seventh inning. Still, Whiteville held on for a 1-0 win last Wednesday.
The loss puts South Brunswick and Whiteville in a tie for first place in the Waccamaw Conference standings as each has two losses.
"We pitched well enough to win—our bats just went cold," South coach Lee Shelton said. "Whiteville's pitcher did a good job."
Brunswick County resident Martin Cooke has been nominated to fill the county commissioners seat left vacant by the death of long-time commissioner David Sandifer.
Cooke was nominated for the District 2 post Thursday night by the Brunswick County Republican Party.
County commissioners now have the task of appointing Cooke to the seat. If appointed, Cooke will fill the role until December.
WILMINGTON—Four Republican gubernatorial candidates squared off last Thursday night at the Stand Up and Vote Candidates Forum.
But only one Democrat showed up for the event.
Democratic candidates Bev Purdue and Richard Moore were no-shows, despite being invited, forum host Curtis Wright said.
Col. Dennis Nielsen, the lone Democrat, took the stage alone to answer questions from the debate panel and from audience members.
District attorney Rex Gore has found no "inappropriate conduct" by two detention officers related to the death of inmate Senaca Marrell Vaught.
Vaught, 32, died while in custody at the Brunswick County Detention Center on Jan. 23 after a brief struggle with detention officers Karl Scoggins and Dustin Riddle.
Vaught was pronounced dead at 10:14 p.m. Jan. 23.
Around 9:30 p.m., Scoggins and Riddle responded to Vaught's solitary observation cell because he was kicking the door. When the two officers responded, Vaught charged at them.
April is National Child Abuse Prevention Month, and although agencies like Brunswick County Smart Start are working to ensure people know what to do to prevent abuse, the numbers of reported cases are rising each year.
Before the month began, Smart Start employees placed blue ribbons on trees planted on the Brunswick County Courthouse grounds in 2004 in memory of children in North Carolina who died as a result of abuse in 2002.
Brunswick County's business and economic development leaders learned at last week's entrepreneurial conference that nurturing small business owners is a key to a vital economy.
So what can they do to encourage business start-ups as well as support existing businesses?
"Entrepreneurs are like fish: If you box them in, they won't grow. They need support," said Leslie Scott of the Rural Economic Development Center at the conference.
The 30-day clock to appoint a new sheriff began ticking last Tuesday when former sheriff Ronald Hewett resigned.
Members of the Brunswick County Democratic Party Executive Committee are set to cast their ballots May 10 for the county's next sheriff.
The group will meet at 10 a.m. at the party headquarters, Old Ocean Highway, between Supply and Bolivia.
County commissioners will then appoint the Democrat's nominee as sheriff.
Since Hewett's suspension March 27, county coroner Greg White has been serving as sheriff, per state law.
Your TV will not become obsolete on Feb. 17, 2009, and you don't have to buy a high-definition TV set to replace it.
But those are some of the misconceptions ATMC staffers have been hearing from their customers since the Federal Communications Commission announced its plans to prohibit TV stations from sending out analog signals in 2009.
On Feb. 17, 2009, all local stations that transmit analog signals will be required to start sending digital signals, according to the FCC regulations.

text: Greenpeace Drops Co-Founder Over Inconvenient Truths Print article Send a Tip by Andre Walker 5 Mar 2014 post a comment The environmental campaign group Greenpeace is attempting to quietly re-write its history, particularly surrounding its co-founder Patrick Moore. Moore has been a thorn in Greenpeace's side for many years, and recently stated that any changes in earth's climate were "minor" – and that there was no evidence of human involvement. Mr Moore, 67, told a U.S. Senate Committee: "There is no scientific proof that human emissions of carbon dioxide (CO2) are the dominant cause of the minor warming of the Earth's atmosphere over the past 100 years." "Today, we live in an unusually cold period in the history of life on Earth and there is no reason to believe that a warmer climate would be anything but beneficial for humans and the majority of other species." He also commented specifically on attempts to side-line his involvement in the establishment of Greenpeace in 1969: "I describe the climate change movement as a combination of an extreme political ideology and a religious cult all rolled into one. It's a very, very dangerous social phenomenon. It causes them to think they have the right to dictate what we do." In a statement on Greenpeace's website said: "While it is true that Patrick Moore was a member of Greenpeace in the 1970s, in 1986 he abruptly turned his back on the very issues he once passionately defended. He claims he 'saw the light' but what Moore really saw was an opportunity for financial gain."

"With this personalized medicine we can identify subgroups of patients that can get better effects from certain drugs," he said. "In some cases there is a potential for a cure. Right now the cure rate for advanced lung cancer is two to three percent at best. This is a huge improvement but everything is based on the selection criteria."
The CU School of Medicine is a prominent leader in lung cancer research. D. Ross Camidge, MD, Ph.D., clinical director of the Thoracic Oncology Program at the University of Colorado Hospital and a Cancer Center investigator, has helped develop effective drug treatments for patients with the ALK gene rearrangement, an abnormality that occurs in three to five percent of lung cancer patients.
Hirsch is currently leading a clinical trial with colleagues in the Southwest Oncology Group that is similar to the European study. He hopes it will further validate the predictive value of the test in relation to using cetuximab in patients with advanced lung cancer. The study (SWOG 0819) has 550 participants and expects 1,500 total.
Hirsch's research laboratory specializes in identifying biomarkers which can predict benefits from new cancer drugs and place the right patients with the right therapy.

Session one: 6 - 24 of July 2015
Each summer we offer a varied selection of university level courses under the following headings: Arts, Literature & Culture, Business & Management, Health & Society, Latin & Ancient Greek, Law and Politics and Social Sciences. All courses are offered at first and second year university level so are open to students of any academic background.
We also offer week-long pre-sessional English courses for students who wish to refresh their English language knowledge before taking a course.
"What I have taken from my intensive daily summer classes was an education that has prepared me to become a stronger critical thinker, the increased confidence to engage with academics in discussing matters I am most passionate about, which further has prepared me for future graduate level classes in my chosen profession. As a recent undergraduate and beginning professional in the health sector I look forward to utilising my new skills and perspectives'. Agata Stanielewicz, Summer School 2014
'In addition to gaining a wealth of knowledge in these three weeks, I have gained the ability to learn and operate in an environment that is completely different from the one I'm used to, and had the opportunity to work with people from different cultures and backgrounds. It has been incredibly rewarding, particularly in the people I have met. I have made friends from different countries all over the world; it has been so much fun and I have greatly expanded my world knowledge. I will always remember how my time here impacted my life in an immensely positive way'. Audrey Fiudo, Rockhurst University, USA, Summer School 2014

@The incident led to questions as to whether or not SpongeBob is a homosexual character. In 2002, when SpongeBob's popularity with gay men grew, Hillenburg denied that SpongeBob was gay.

We might as well discuss Sponge Bob. It's already agreed upon that Jorge gives Marquez head. After all, a guy named "Schwantz" broke the news so it MUST be true. Or at least "almost" true. And for some, almost is good enough.
Or we could just call each other silly names. Like Nostril Da Moose. Must be a cousin to Bullwinkle. (No offense there mate.) Just don't call me late for dinner.

Green is the New Black Eco Fashion Show is Back for 2014!
Posted by cmc467 in Awards, Earth Week, Events, Student Opportuniites, Sustainability, Sustainable Living, Uncategorized on January 30, 2014
Do you have dreams of being a clothing designer or working in fashion? Does thrift shopping strike your fancy? If so, apply to be a designer or stylist for the second annual Eco Fashion Show!
Green is the New Black, the Eco Fashion Show sponsored by Housing and Residence Life, will once again kick off NAU's Earth Week events. One of the things that make this event so special is that the designers and stylists create their runway looks completely out of reused materials. These materials can be anything from repurposed plastic bags to creating head to toe outfits via thrift store shopping. The purpose of the Eco Fashion Show is to help provide people with inspiration to think outside the box for what their wardrobe could look like and to show new and fun ways to keep unnecessary objects out of landfills. It is sure to make you look at clothing in a new way!
Learn more about the guidelines and award categories and submit an application to www.nau.edu/ecofashion by February 13th at 5pm to participate as a designer or stylist. We are looking for both men's and women's wear looks. Any member of the NAU community may participate. Prizes will include having the winning designs on display at the Communication School.
More of an armchair fashionista? The fashion show will be on April 21st 2014 at 7pm in the Dubois Center Ballroom. All are welcome and encouraged to attend to help celebrate Earth Week and enjoy the beautiful and creative designs.
April seems far away, go to our Facebook page to see pictures and videos from last year's show.
Here are a couple of teasers to enjoy!

Slash the Trash Waste Audit Results
The Slash the Trash event at the Skydome on homecoming weekend was a huge success. We had over 20 volunteers come out to sort through waste generated by the Homecoming game and tailgating activities. Here is what we found:
Cardboard: 423 lbs.
Landfill: 1285 lbs.
Food Waste: 340 lbs.
Recycling: 433 lbs.
Pepsi Cups: 133 lbs.
Glass: 133 lbs.
Bathroom: 50 lbs.
Liquid: 278 lbs.
All the waste adds up to 3,072 total pounds! Here are the percentages:
13.77% Carboard
41.83% Landfill
11.07% Food Waste
14.10% Recycling
4.33% Pepsi Cups
4.23% Glass
1.63% Bathroom
9.05% Liquid
In total, we diverted 986 pounds from the landfill into recycling! That's 32.1%!
All of this information will serve as our baseline for future waste reduction at football games. Check out photos from the event on the Green NAU facebook page.
Help Slash the Trash at the Skydome
NAU is performing a waste audit of the homecoming game waste stream at 10am on Sunday, October 20, to determine how to reduce our impact on campus and we need volunteers! All volunteers who commit to a 3 hour shift will be rewarded with Dining Dollars.
To volunteer email us at email@example.com.

November 27, 2014
TOKYO (AP) - An environmental group says that Japan's hunts of smaller whales, dolphins and porpoises threaten some species with extinction, while consumers are at risk from toxins in their meat.
The London-based Environmental Investigation Agency, an independent conservation group, says Japan's catch quotas are based on data collected as much as 20 years ago.
The report issued Thursday says some species have been overhunted beyond the point of recovery, while the lucrative market in live catches for aquariums, especially in China, pose another risk.
Japan set its catch limit for the small cetaceans at 16,655 in 2013, far below the 30,000 caught annually before limits were set in 1993. It defends its coastal whaling as a longstanding tradition, source of livelihood and as necessary for scientific research.

What are the must tries at Han Dynasty?
The Dan Dan noodles are already on my list. Although I'm going to have to request a bit less heat as they're listed as an 8 on their site.
What are some other dishes that I must try?
There will be 2 of us dining tonight so suggestions on good sharing dishes would be great!
Spicy Crispy Cucumbers
Cold Sesame Noodles
Cumin-style Lamb (though they sometimes overdo it with the cumin)
Some other favorites:
Dry Fry style Pork
Mapo Tofu
Dumplings in Chili Oil
The Dan Dan noodles, and basically everything else on the menu, seem to vary widely in heat level from visit to visit. Sometimes the Dan Dan noodles are the hottest thing on the table, sometimes the weakest.
+1 to buckethead's favorites
- Three Cup Chicken is not spicy at all- i would omit these and go with the pea leaves myself, but others love this dish so i always end up getting it
- dry cooked fish
- Pea Leaves w/ Garlic - also not spicy and good if you want some greens
I agree with all of Buckethead's recs. Just a note, since you say there will be two of you--the portions are quite large. I have gone for lunch with one other person, split the cucumbers and dan dan noodles, and been quite full, and I don't have a small appetite. If you want to sample a lot of different things, be prepared to bring home leftovers.
+1 for three cup chicken(boneless) (one cup sesame oil, one cup rice wine vinegar and one cup soy sauce) and dumplings in Chili Oil
I also like the double fried beef and the chicken with hot peppers. Both are very spicy. The wontons in chicken broth is also great!
re: mookleknuck
Thanks for the suggestions, and we tried them tonight at the Exton location. Some were not recognized when we called in for takeout, but more to the point: The ones we did get were spoiled by a way, way, way too much salt (or MSG). We all remember the good days of HD, but Exton is still not back.
We had a great meal last night! I was worried about the heat and sloppy service (reviews on yelp!) but neither turned out to be a problem. We started with the spicy crispy cucumbers with the spice turned down a bit - loved them!! Both my friend and I could not stop eating the Dan Dan Noodles. What is in that dish that makes it so addictive!! The table next to us had ordered the scallion dish (no heat) and it looked appealing so we decided to add the beef dish to our order.
I was happy to see their beer/wine selection has been expanded past what they have listed on their site. I'm not typically a cider drinker but with the heat outside yesterday and the fear of heat in the dishes I opted for one. Worked perfect with our meal. Can't wait to return to try more dishes and turn up the heat!
re: jl0328
What heat level did you have for each dish? When I ordered the Dan Dan noodles, the server asked me what heat level and when I asked for the "usual" she paused in a way that made me reconsider. I downgraded to a "5" and found that was enough heat for me.
re: Philly Ray
We did 3 for the cucumbers and 4 for the noodles. We both agreed that we could have probably bumped up the heat a bit...next time!
The menu online lists the noodles as an 8 but the real menu has them as a 6. So I was confused as to how they're actually measuring the heat.
re: Chinon00
I enjoy the Taiwanese sausage dish as well.
I would suggest the best way to experience Han is at one fo the banquets. I know the seats used to be difficult to get in Old City but they may be easier now. I have been to one in Royersford, and the food was spot on, and you got enjoy a myriad of dishes, ranging from the spine tingling spicy ones to the more subtle dishes.
I also continuously hear about inconsistency at all of the HD locatoins, and I believe Han was even quoted as saying he is aware of it, and is endavoring to fix it, not by bringing over new chefs from Sichuan, but rather by training US based chefs.
And a small complaint about the service. At the West Philly location there was a server who was constantly filling water glasses, removing dishes from the tables, asking us if we needed anything, etc in a hurried manner. I'm not saying he was wrong but I don't need that type of service at Han Dynasty. I was talking more to him than to my family.

There are just certain words that make me move on to the next item, and it is probably my loss. "Tendon" is one of them
re: Abner Kravitz
I had them as part of one of the banquets at Royersford. They are good.. very spicy. Very authentic... not my first choice. I usually do not get tendon in Pho either.
This post is not regarding the food but the service. Was there last night and ordered two apps while looking at the menu as we were slightly pressured to do so by our waiter immediately upon sitting down. This was at 6:45 and the place was 2/3 empty.
Apps came and were fine but the waiter when they were delivered asked about our main courses. Told him we were not ready and would let him know when we were. In the next 20 minutes he came to the table not less than 6 times to get an order. Finally out of desperation we ordered a main, planning to get a second in a bit. After he came three more times and we said we were not ready, he then left the check. Total time in resto was 48 minutes, and never was the place over 1/2 full.

Poetry for the Moment
we cannot see them,we can hardly hear
our man's words:
"He makes me lie down in green pastures;
he leads me beside still waters.
He restores. . . ."
Like hungry animals,
the engines snarl,growl and snort
in crescendo.
On and on.
We wait.
There must be hundreds
on this Sunday jaunt.
The wild cacophony wanes.
The bikes are headed to
their Jerusalem,
the perfume of spring
their rod,
their passion their staff.

LEE COUNTY, Fla. - A possible change in Florida law could put repeat drunk drivers back behind the wheel.
It's part of a larger highway safety bill that won unanimous support in Tallahassee, but also picked up backing from state leaders with Mothers Against Drunk Driving.
Right now in Florida, after four DUI convictions, the offender's license is gone forever. The changes in House Bill 971 would give those repeat offenders a chance to petition for the right to drive again after 10 years (starting this fall) and as little as five years beginning in 2011.
"Driving is a privilege, and I think you lost it after four DUIs," said one opponent to the law change.
DUI attorney Joe Viacava says the plan appropriately provides several restrictions, like completing DUI programs, being drug-free and keeping a clean criminal record.
"The bill doesn't say that you automatically get your license back, its on case-by-case basis, where certain evidence gets presented why the person should or should not have their license," Viacava said.
Under the plan, the first year's return to the wheel would only be allowed for commuting to work.
"We have personally seen a lot of hardships that this would be very fair for," Viacava said.
State leaders with Florida's MADD organization have surprised some by supporting the change, saying thousands of dui convicts drive without a license anyway. They argue the new law would give the state more control, by also requiring a breathlyzer to be connected to the offender's car that can keep it from starting if the driver has been drinking.
Several other groups in the state are upset with MADD's support, started petitions of their own asking the governor to veto the DUI changes.
"By four DUIs I think you should have learned your lesson by now," said an opponent to the change.
The bill approved by the legislature has yet to arrive on Governor Crist's desk for his decision on a signature or veto.

Indian, other foreigners rate Australia as tops for student safety.
Melbourne, Oct 13 (ANI): Foreign students, including Indians rate Australia as
- Australia A may refer to:
- The Australia A cricket team
- The Australia A rugby union team
IDP Education, one of Australia's biggest international student recruitment companies, conducted the survey of more than 6000 students from eight countries from September 12 to October 6. Of those surveyed, 1130 were Indian students.
According to according to
1. As stated or indicated by; on the authority of: according to historians.
2. In keeping with: according to instructions.
3. a global survey, notwithstanding the violent attacks on Indian students in Australia, nearly 40 per cent of respondents ticked Australia as the safest place when asked to choose from a list comprising Australia, the US, Britain, New Zealand New Zealand (zē`lənd), island country (2005 est. pop. 4,035,000), 104,454 sq mi (270,534 sq km), in the S Pacific Ocean, over 1,000 mi (1,600 km) SE of Australia. The capital is Wellington; the largest city and leading port is Auckland. and Canada.
The US ranked last for safety, with 4.3 per cent.
Students, however, did not believe Australia offered the most prestigious education system.
On this measure, the US rated most highly (42 per cent), followed by Britain (28 per cent) and Australia (15 per cent).

Not only does "SUR" relate to the Mexican-American inhabitants of southern California, or Surenos, it also can be an accronym for "Soldier Under Restriction". A "Soldier Under Restriction" is usually a gangmember, or ex gangmember, that has been arrested and incarcerated. Tatoos of "SUR" are commanly found on these individuals.

leadership is about compromising and working with others
not a trait that has been demonstrated once
so of course the status quo becomes accepted as a triumph
That 3.3 million number is a farce. Why don't you point out that there has been stonewalling from HHS about how many re-enrolled in Medicaid and how many haven't even paid their premiums?
"Triumphs?" LOL – he will meet with anyone and do anything to distract from the economy and Obamacare.
"Muted Triumphs"? How much does the White House pay you to write this drivel?
Don't worry Mr President, the RNC and it's bots will be right there with you, sabotaging everything you try to do. The fringe has become the taliban of American politics.
This is very poor reporting. Obama had nothing to do with the debt limit being raised. Republicans decided. More reporting is needed on how Obama is violating the US Constitution and how many of the 3.3 million subscribers will actually pay. An what about the cost of Obama care vs. the orignially projected budget surplusess it would create? Very biased reporting. Should be an editorial.
Muted "triumphs"?!?!?! Really? I guess his side would consider destroying the economy and fundamentally changing our country into a welfare state to be a triumph.
I get the distinct feeling that the author is trying to write something positive about a serial failure. Obama has been a racist and self centered failure since his brilliant quote "the cop was stupid for taking that man into custody" after the cop stopped the guy from breaking into a house. After the fact it was learned that it was his house and the suspect was the head of the "black studies program at Harvard.
"The administration announced that some 3.3 million people signed up for health-care coverage under the new law as of January." — 1) How many have actually paid? The NY Times this morning was reporting maybe 20% to 30% have not paid. 2) How many of those 3.3 million LOST Insurance because of O'care and are now just replacing it. 3) Does anyone see a problem with a program that is designed to insure all Americans, yet, in ten years, we will have 31 million uninsured compared to todays, well, 31 million (CBO estimate). Why the WSJ interprets this as good news is beyond me. Just because Jay Carney says so? Ditch the stenography and ask some questions.
1) The 3.3 million figure dies not include re-enrollees, those who lost cover because of O-care.
2) How many off those 3.3 million have actually paid? NYT this morning is reporting only to 70% to 80%.
3) At the end of ten years we'll have just as many uninsured as we do today. "Muted success?" Well, muted, for sure.
I don't know but, it seems the author of this "muted triumphs" piece may have gone to an elementary school with no red pens, and no letter grades….
This sort of education seems to get in the way of seeing truth, and saying the word "failure." Calling it something nicer doesn't get people jobs, help students dig out from the $1,000,000,000,000 of student loan debt, help the tens of million of people who have magically fallen out of the unemployment number get any sort of life back, or, even any kind of fair "recognition" in the public eye…
Triumphs at home?
It's been one epic fail after another for Barry.
yeah obama has destroyed the economy so bad that corporate profits are higher than ever. what a socialist!
Muted? Triumphs? Has the dictionary changed?
I wish I could write off my leisure time of golf, or perhaps dinner in Paris, if I had an alleged "meeting" with somebody. Living high on the taxpayers dime while b1eeting 'stick it to the 1% – but don't look at what I'm doing"
There was no "brinkmanship" this time around, but notice that the outcome was the same. The problem has not been solved, and in fact is worse. I guess that compromise isn't all it's cracked up to be.
The only thing worse than Obama's domestic policy is his foreign policy. Good luck with that!
This is really, for WSJ, a very positive article about President Obama, since WSJ tries hard to "mute" any of his accomplishments. Oh yes, the nay-sayers will, for example, point to every turn of the road with the ACA as evidence that it's failing, instead of a normal spinning-out of a new process, and the armchair Presidents below fail to take account of the Iran deal (they'll probably call it a "cave-in" instead of a possible new accomplishment).
Granted, there is much more to do — and if some of the representatives these poster support would think about this country rather than simply bringing Obama down (which they won't), a lot more could get done. And if the posters would write to their representatives in addition to posting, that would have an effect, too.
At home he should be known as Obama the Deceiver or Obama the Usurper if you prefer. As for his foreign policy, Obama the Failure comes to mind.
destroying the economy and fundamentally changing our country wrote:
"yeah obama has destroyed the economy so bad that corporate profits are higher than ever. what a socialist!
What you fail to recognize is that those corporate profits are primarily driven by overseas markets and not by the economy of the United States. You also fail to recognize that the other major driver of corporate profits have been cuts in employment and benefits here in the United States and the artificially cheap money supply put in place by the Fed. In short, Obama's policies have little if anything to do with the current state of the economy except to the extent they've held it back through higher taxation and more burdensome regulation.
If you are used to the mediocre, the current White House leadership becomes pretty good. So much for "Mr. Change".
Every President wants Middle East Peace, but it has eluded most all of them. Call it the Presidential Holy Grail. One exception, former President Jimmy Carter and his famous Camp David Retreat Vacation spent with the P.M of Israel (Began) and the late President Anwar Sadat of Egypt. There is nothing really to do at Camp David, so they were forced to talk about peace. An agreement was reached which established Israel's security and resulted a long 30-year period of relative peace in the Middle East. All the leaders of that era are now out of power or dead. The Middle East is now much more dangerous, politically unstable, and we have many more growing conflicts and potential wars in the region today, certainly not peace. It is clearly unattainable now, just a dream.
Obama the Usurper's "triumphs" at home have been a disaster for the nation.
Triumphs? Ha!
He will be playing golf in Palm Springs with 89 degree weather today. I wonder how many folks had to risk their lives on the streets of Washington D.C. to make sure his plane could fly-out in time. The KING has spoken. He's the most disgusting man on the plant Earth.
Yes, it's been one muted triumph after another since the last inauguration. A few more and he'll be irrelevant.
Now, now. This is a very appropriate article about a president on President's Day weekend. Gives those of us in the private sector something to reflect on when we go to work Monday to help pay for the day off that all government pukes will be enjoying on that same day.
Did Jay Carney write this piece? Or is Carol Lee looking to join the ranks as a member of the punditocracy as a "Democratic Strategist?"
I guess the author of this piece wanted to send the POTUS a valentine. Next year I would prefer he do it on his time, not mine.
The Washington Wire perspective is just that–inside the beltway myopia. What happens and is thought to be critically important in DC bears only a passing resemblance to the events and thoughts in a great deal of the rest of the country. Inside the beltway, the President is still seen as a "cool thought leader." Outside the beltway, he is seen as a bumbling embarrassment at home and abroad. Even tweeners know it's not cool to ham it up taking selfies at a funeral. Now, even working millennials, faced with paying their student loans, shouldering their high tax load and stunned by their skyrocketing share of Obamacare costs, have faced up to the reality of the Great Prevaricator.
"After Muted Triumphs at Home, Obama Seeks Progress Abroad"
Like his "success' of his "Good War" in Afghanistan?
It's amazing to me how little the American public understands when it comes to foreign policy. EVERYTHING is "foreign policy." In a world that is becoming increasingly iterconnected through the process of Globalization, you have to understand that the real action concerning Globalism lies within the realm of "foreign policy." FP is were the action is…Domestic policy only serves to pull us further apart.
On Foreign Policy he acts like Senator – all talk no action
On Domestic Polcy he acts like a mayor – Knit together various interest groups whose leaders you pay off for delivering votes, carrot and stick the top business folks and unleash devasting results to everyone else.
yeah obamas policies have nothing to do with the current state of the economy … er, wait. no his policies are destroying the economy … er, wait. the only reason our economy has recovered from the financial collapse is because republicans have blocked all of obamas policies …. er, wait.
as long as we're making things up … the moon is made of green cheese
major driver of corporate profits have been cuts in employment and benefits wrote:
as long as we're making things up … the moon is made of green cheese
I stand by my statement that it is cuts that are one of the drivers of corporate profits and not expanding business in the United States. Not made up at all, but you're entitled to your opinion.
Triumphs of healthcare and debt ceiling?
Separating millions from their doctors and insurance and obtaining a one year pass to continuing to be a debt mongering socialists is a Triumph" only a NY Times plagiarizer could be proud of.
Shame on you WSJ.
@ Obama's policies— Note; Republicans did not block Obama's signature achievement "CASH FOR CLUNKERS". The communist party gets full credit for that grand plan.
The fact that corporate profits are not due to expanding operations in the US is easily verified, as are the facts that corporate profits are due to expanding operations overseas, and cost-cutting here in the US.
Only low info Barry sycophants are not aware of these facts.
The Obama Dream: I tell you what to do and what you can keep while I party like a king. I eat caviar, you can have bread and beans, if I choose to let you have it.
This morning for Valentine's day my wife told me "If you love your wife, you can keep your wife". Should I be worried?
Just goes to show that a success for Obama is a failure for the US. Funny thing about that.
People posting here have better understanding of facts than author of Washington Wire.
As little respect Barry has here at home, he has even less overseas, where things like his NSA spying, Syria red line, disastrous war in Libya have totally destroyed his credibility.
thats not moving the goal posts
yeah facts like obamas destruction of the economy and death panel benghazi obamaphones. duh liberaltard wall st journal!
einstein over here. perhaps you can name a time period when cuts arent one of the drivers of corporate profits
lol. i thought obama was a weak appeaser for making a deal with Iran. which is it you clueless tea bagger?
More people have lost their insurance than have bought an ObamaCare policy. I hardly call that a victory. The thing is, when this guy 'wins', Americans lose.
Muted Triumphs? More like Charlie Foxtrots.
Wow, if that's a winning week, then the Little Big Horn was a triumph; Pearl Harbor was a masterful win and Denver won the Super Bowl.
"That's in part why the president is spending Valentine's Day on a sprawling Palm Springs, Calif., resort with plans for multiple rounds of golf and some quality time with…the king of Jordan." What? California is in the midst of historic drought, and he's playing golf in the middle of the desert on courses that soak up who knows how much scarce water? And flying there on a CO2 belching mega-jet? What would Al Gore say.
I blame republicans.
"Muted triumphs"? What planet are you on? How about "Abysmal failures"?
You have got to be kidding me.
Who can blame Obama for wanting to get as far as possible from the Tea Party Republicans in the House, and from the grumpy old men, who comment on the WSJ site, and hate him with every fiber of their being?
…all he has to do is resign and he can go back to Kenya!
Boo-hoo-hoo! They're criticizing my president!
WSJ has finally succumbed to the "Dear Leader" propaganda.
The triumphs are so muted no ones heard of them.
The economy hasn't tanked under Obama's policies.
Victory and Triumph!
It was about ready to collapse completely but he saved it!
Have you seen Barry's approval ratings? If he wants to get away from people who hate him, he'll have to leave the country…of course, everyone overseas hates him too. He better book a flight to outer space!
…and I approved this bull sh__ article.
Muted Triumphs? He can only dare to hope to triumph the total success of the ARAB SPRING and backing down Putin in that " The whole world drew a line in the sand" moment.
"Muted Triumphs" at home? I can't think of any.
I would hate to be you people who comment here. How lousy your lives must be to even take the time to say such unoriginal, uninteresting and unkind remarks.
Not one of you haters are worthwhile.
Geez, you get a chance to contribute to the world and you just sling crap.
The president has kept us out of wars. There is a finesse and nuance to how he operates, a welcome distinction from the war mongerers who proceeded him. He gets very little credit for that. Refinement and subtlety and sharpness are something I desire in foreign policy.
The only solace President Obama will find abroad is travel and vacations. He can visit other places and "discuss" issues. The truth is, its a way to bide your time until your term is over. Then you can go home. If I was stalemated or bored, that is probably what I would also be doing. Lame Duckness is primarily a domestic condition. In contrast, a fresh face abroad (President) is still new to many.
The Democratic Party is the one who most traditionally avoids entering wars and if they have to get involved, are the last to fight ( WWI and WWII in Europe). The Democratic Party strategy has been to let others die and spill their blood first, while conserving American lives. President Obama is following right down the same path that countless former Democratic Presidents such as FDR followed. Its certainly not a skill or an original approach to foreign policy. Spinning it into a skill and strategy is giving credit where credit is not necessarily due here.
What can be easily discerned by so many of these knee-jerk negative remarks is their theatrical nature.
So shallow and attention-seeking –as in who can outdo the next guy with evidence-free quick little reactions as they pop their next beer….
