A friend of mine recommended that I try this Libido supplement. I was pleasantly surprised by the results of this product. Initially, I was extremely skeptical, but much to my surprise it definitely had a positive effect. Using this product for only 10 days, I was able to realize increased intimate performance, stronger and enhanced durations and good stamina. The fact that this product does not have any harmful chemicals and that they are all herbs, makes it unique in my opinion. The product also claims GMO Free and Vegan, which is a bonus (I guess). I like it and will continue using it.
I was pleasantly surprised by the results of this product. Initially, I was extremely skeptical, but much to my surprise it definitely had a positive effect. Using this product for only a few weeks time, I was able to realize increased intimate performance, stronger and enhanced durations, and a noticeable greater volume of orgasmic release. Both you and your partner will enjoy the benefits of using this product….I certainly did.
Although I've remained physically active and I have tried to follow a healthy lifestyle, I have noticed the effects that come along with middle age starting to affect me. My libido has not been what it ised to be prior to hitting 40 years of age, and it has been frustrating for not only me, but my wife as well. I have tried a number of over-the-counter remedies that were meant to kick start my performance in the bedroom, but all of these products left me feeling disappointed. They all were either caffeine and/or ephedra based products that did nothing more than make me feel jittery, and they caused my heart to beat rapidly.
Vgor Hrx is a great product that I now recommend to all of my friends.

Christian concert for a public school?
I was listening to the radio on my way to the airport this morning, mainly to have some noise on to keep me awake. I was vaguely listening to some commercial about a benefit concert being held at West Lafayette High School, when a clip from the musical group was played:
"Jesus, help me see the morning light..."
Then I started paying a lot more attention.
Apparently the concert was to raise money for Haiti and for local student athletes in the Lafayette area. They would also be presenting an award to the student who was named athlete of the year.
...Am I the only person that finds this a bit inappropriate?
I think some schools have special rules where outside groups can rent their space, religious or not (correct me if I'm wrong). If this was just some outside group having a concert, it wouldn't bug me. But it seems like the public school system itself is sponsoring and organizing this. It's not just a band that happens to be Christian - they also chose to publicize it using a blatantly religious gospel soundbite.
What about the non-Christian students and student athletes? I was a student athlete - Captain of our golf team - and I would have felt extremely awkward if our award ceremony had been full of gospel music. It's simply inappropriate for a public school.
Am I overreacting? Was I just especially cranky at 6:30 in the morning? Should we not care since it's for a good cause, or should the high school had found a more appropriate, secular band?
Edit: Finally got some real Internet, and it turns out it's for Purdue students. False alarm. Thank you stupid uninformative commercial.

I think you're right. Also having been a non-Christian athlete would have been feeling the same.ReplyDelete
When I was in middle and high school, we sang religious music in our chorus concerts. I don't think they were trying to send a message of religion, but music is still music, regardless of whether it is religious or not. Should the public schools ban the singing of all religious music or music that mentions god/jesus just to keep things perfectly secular? I don't think so, otherwise you'd be cutting out alot of really awesome pieces (many of the composers in the Baroque and Classical periods were commissioned by the churches, so obviously their music will be religious in title or - if a choral piece - in the lyrics). Should they never sing a Requiem again? What about state universities? We sang a requiem every year when I was in university, and many of the other pieces were religious in nature (of course, they also performed very non-religious pieces, such as Carmina Burana). It certainly wasn't because the director was trying to push a religious message - she was a liberal woman, a lesbian, and the director of a gay man's choir. Of course, I'm sure she was also trying to garner support within the community so more people would attend (I live in the Bible Belt), but I think her main concern was to make good music, as was, I believe, the goal of the music directors when I was in middle and high school.ReplyDelete
I'm glad it was a false alarm, but that's kind of a thorny issue, and for the most part I don't know that there's a problem, legally speaking, with a public school sponsoring a Christian band at a charity event. I say that only because every band brings with it their own ideological views, be they sociocultural, political, or religious. I'd only be concerned if the school was funneling the money to explicitly Christian organizations or refusing to sponsor secular bands as well. I think you'd have to be able to demonstrate some unambiguous favoritism.ReplyDelete
But yeah. False alarm and stuff.
- VanessaFebruary 21, 2010 at 6:38 PM
Personally, I'm a bit more concerned about what they're doing with the money: "Concert proceeds will help build a house in Haiti and provide scholarships for high school football players." Isn't that an odd combination? Why not just give it all to Haiti?ReplyDelete
Good point Crystal, but all musical groups that sing gospel do it with the purpose of spreading Christianity, this is an inappropriate group for a public school function. And, If they're impartially studying gospel music as part of a music class they should also have Hindu and Islamic hymns in the curriculum. This is a secular gevernment and public schools should have nothing to do with any form of religious proselitizing no matter what the religion is.ReplyDelete
The problem is that there may not be many non-judeo christian songs available for SATB middle and high school choirs. There is a greater array of foreign language pieces, which are adapted from animist traditions, but those can be very difficult to sing. And when middle/high school singing groups go caroling to senior citizen luncheons/retirement communities, they create positive publicity, which can often show schools and communities why these music programs need to continue. There was one choir teacher that did have students sing at Zondervan, but she was replaced the following year.ReplyDelete
>all musical groups that sing gospel do it with the purpose of spreading ChristianityReplyDelete
This is false, and if necessary I'll construct a counterexample.

How many silk screen impressions does it take?
Posted on | December 10, 2008 | No Comments
"How many licks does it take to get to the Tootsie Roll center of a Tootsie Pop?" You might remember that burning question as a kid from the famous 1970 commercial. A similar question might be asked about handprinted wallpaper; "How many print impressions does it take to complete?" Lets look, for example, at our "Raspberry Bramble" in Aesthetic Green (410).
First, you need to know that each silk screen pattern is printed one color at a time, one (screen) repeat at a time. Notice in the photo below our veteran printer Julian "Jules" Valdez is laying down the cream-colored ink for the blossoms in this pattern. Each screen repeat of Raspberry is approximately 17 inches, and each of our four large tables average 90 feet in length. So that amounts to 63.5 impressions per table, 254 total for the four tables. Now that completes only one color! Since this is a seven-colored pattern, to print all seven over the four tables means 1778 hand-screened impressions!!
So here's one for those of you who loved story problems in math class… how many impressions would it take to print this pattern all the way to the moon?

You can tell a lot about an artist's point of view by how
they draw people. It sounds simple but in fact the diversity of vision and
execution is pretty vast. There are contemporary artists out there practicing
in a traditional vein dating back to the Old Masters. There are also
established artists who are a little more unconventional in their approach, and
then there are emerging artists who work waaaaaaay outside the box in terms of
narrative. Here are three skilled artists who not only know how to draw people
realistically, they also put their indelible stamp on the work they do, marking
it unmistakably as their own.
Jacob Collins
The sense of classical tradition with which Jacob Collins imbues
his work is unmistakable. I look at his work and see clear references to Greek
and Roman sculpture, Renaissance masters, as well as the Beaux-Art tradition of
the 1800s--rightly so, as these are the influences that shape the curriculum of
Collins' Grand Central Academy in New York. There is a certain amount of stasis
in Collins' work, a stillness that likely comes from drawing people in such a
heavily referential and established tradition, but there is also a loveliness
and facile beauty in that stillness that is undeniable.
Abby Sangiamo
As a chair for four departments at the Maryland Institute
College of Art during his 40+ years there, Abby Sangiamo definitely made an
impact on the students, graduates, and professors he came into contact with.
Drawing people, however, is where he stands alone as an example of how portrait
drawing can bear the stamp of the unconventional. His frontal portrait series
includes dozens of drawings that have strange narrative undertones--figures
emoting everything from banality and blankness to sexual forwardness and threatening
demeanors--but physical application of the marks are what interest me most. There
is so much visual landscape to go over in any one of his drawings, and he works
so differently, making marks that seem breathed so lightly and delicately onto
the page to strokes that seem carved into the paper.
Jason Yarmosky
A young artist out of the School of Visual Arts, Yarmosky is
currently drawing people in peculiar ways--images of elderly figures dressed in
costumes but left isolated on an otherwise blank page,
with no sense of activity or environment to anchor them. The works, skillfully
drawn, tend to polarize viewers. Some take the works as lighthearted and
liberating--older personages in youthful, playful roles. Others find the vulnerability
of the figures uncomfortable and question if the portrayals are mocking, making
their participation in the viewing of the works all the more disturbing.
What unites all three of these artists, as unlikely as it
seems, is that they are drawing people their way. And that is what is exciting
to me. Furthering my understanding of just how many ways of drawing people
there are is a big step toward figuring out where I would want my work to land
along that continuum of the traditional to bizarre. Drawing the Figure: Lessons from Modern Masters and Top Instructors gives
me even more food for thought and allows me to hone my skills along the way.
I am glad that some have the patience and desire to paint or draw realistic figures.
My hat is off to them and their abilities.
To me, realistic painting was a necessity before the camera when it was the main method of reproducing the likeness of a human form. Today Kodak does a fine job of reproduction and frees many of us up to just paint by imagination without the confines of expectations of perfection.
I love and appreciate the versatility of Artists of the last decades and really respect that artists like Sangiamo dared to do it their way without hanging onto tradition.
Just my humble opinion.

SallyŌĆÖs Barber Shop will be for the guys
Written by Marjorie Preston Tuesday, May 01, 2012 09:10 am
|< Prev
|Next >
ŌĆ£ItŌĆÖs not too often stores open up along here, and I knew I wanted to be in Court House, on Route 9 among all the other businesspeople,ŌĆØ said Laffey. ŌĆ£I know them all from being born and raised here.ŌĆØ
On Tuesday, May 8, Laffey will open SallyŌĆÖs Barber Shop, following decades behind the chair at Sam RepiciŌĆÖs Barber Shop on
ŌĆ£I was there for 27 years ŌĆō it was my first job after I graduated high school,ŌĆØ Laffey said. ŌĆ£But when this store became available, I thought, I need to take the opportunity.ŌĆØ
Unlike unisex salons, SallyŌĆÖs Barber Shop is strictly for the guys. ItŌĆÖs been designed to look like a basketball court, complete with a scoreboard, a countdown clock and three styling stations that will resemble gym lockers. A flat-screen TV will be tuned to all sports, all the time. And local high school athletes will be featured in photos and news clips on the wall each week.
LaffeyŌĆÖs husband, Mike, parks director of the Cape May County Park & Zoo, worked to complete the shopŌĆÖs interior last weekend.
ŌĆ£This is my vacation,ŌĆØ he joked. ŌĆ£WeŌĆÖve been doing it all in our spare time ŌĆō my son, my father-in-law and me.ŌĆØ
Mike Laffey is confident that his wife will succeed in her new location. ŌĆ£She has a great following, thatŌĆÖs really important. SallyŌĆÖs very well-known in town.ŌĆØ
Laffey began her career in the mid-1980s, when the state required barbers to serve an apprenticeship before becoming licensed.
ThatŌĆÖs all changed.
These days, students must attend cosmetology school and learn not only hair styling, but manicures, pedicures, facials ŌĆō the works. Laffey said the change is unfortunate in one sense, in that ŌĆ£there are really no more barbers. EveryoneŌĆÖs license nowadays says hair stylist and cosmetologist. I am a licensed barber; thatŌĆÖs where my expertise is, cutting menŌĆÖs hair.ŌĆØ
But sheŌĆÖs pleased that her son, also named Mike, will soon be working toward a cosmetology license. Afterward, heŌĆÖll join her in the new family business as a second-generation barber and stylist. At that point, Laffey hopes to introduce menŌĆÖs facials and even bring back the art of the shave, complete with hot towels.
The new shop joins a number of salons in town, but Laffey believes thereŌĆÖs plenty of work to go around. She said business will grow as long as hair continues to grow.
ŌĆ£In Court House there are eight salons and IŌĆÖll be the third barber shop,ŌĆØ she said. ŌĆ£But everybody needs a haircut.ŌĆØ

I had been looking for a travel bag to take my buggy overseas for a couple of months but couldn't find anything suitable. Then my friend showed me her universal travel bag from Phil & Teds. I tried my buggy in it and it was the perfect fit, with plenty of room to pack some other bits and pieces too. I immediately ordered one online and have been thrilled with it. It's easy to handle which was perfect on the train to the airport and I've used in several times since.
Travel made easy!

I took my new universal travel bag on my recent trip to Sydney to visit family. I was a little worried as it would be my first flight with our 15 month old daughter and no husband!
I was able to pack up our Navigator buggy, my daughters clothes, nappies, and a few toys plus I still had room for my stuff! Along with a small backpack and pulling the travel bag behind me on its durable wheels - I still had an entire hand free to hold my little one tightly, so important in a busy airport!

Elsa's I Do is the new four-track EP from this Toronto crew, touching on dream pop, shoe gaze and more along the way. The lead single is "I Do," a gorgeous reverb-heavy track that recalls the ethereal qualities of Lush and the first time you heard Smashing Pumpkins's "1979." Meaning, you could pretty much put this on repeat to infinity. Check out the video for "In Two" above and order yours here.

T-SPLOST reasons shifting a lot lately
One simple reason not to vote for the T-SPLOST is the fact that paid lobbyist are desperately trying to dupe the public, including letters in The Citizen, on the benefits. T-SPLOST is supposed to be the greatest thing since sliced bread, but it takes an $8 million ad campaign and paid lobbyist to get the point across?
Every poll conducted in metro Atlanta shows T-SPLOST going down in defeat, that's with Republicans and Democrats. This has truly tuned into a bipartisan effort to defeat special interest dishonesty.
AJC columnist Kyle Wingfield did an excellent job ("Taking a look at some T-SPLOST claims," July 13, 2012) looking at the facts of T-SPLOST. Wingfield points out traffic "congestion adds relatively little to the average commute: up to 10 minutes of the hour a typical commuter spends in the car every day. Sheer distance between home and work accounts for the rest of the time."
Wingfield concluded, "If congestion were to fall by 24 percent, then, the average commute would shrink by less than 2.5 minutes a day — only about a minute each way."
That's right ladies and gentlemen, that is $8 billion to save two minutes per day!
The referendum calls for spending $3.2 billion on mass transit projects that are only partially funded. The irony is we are not using 70 percent of the capacity of MARTA now.
MARTA's General Manager Beverly Scott said, "We have a $6 billion investment operating at 30 percent of its design capacity," (April 30, 2012, http://saportareport.com/blog/2012/04/metro-atlanta-needs-to-learn-from-...).
Ridership is declining, debt stacking up in the billions of dollars and expanding mass transit is their answer to our problems. Stop this insanity in the voting booth on July 31, please.
The traffic relief claims have been so thoroughly disproven that the pro-T-SPLOST people swapped the "congestion relief" sales pitch to one of "economic stimulus program."
The political action committees for the T-SPLOST forgot to file their disclosure form on the due date so that we can see the special interests funding behind it all. Those are the ones who get the T-SPLOST cash.
One of the news stations called me asking for a comment on Governor Deal doing away with Ga. Highway 400 tolls by the end of 2013, thinking it would help the T-SPLOST effort.
I replied that it simply proved our governor lied to us twice. When campaigning, he said he would remove the tolls and did not. He later said certain state obligations prevented him from removing the tolls. Last week he showed us he could, in fact, remove the tolls. That certainly does not restore my trust in government.
How would we pay for the billions of dollars, year over year, for operating and maintenance of an expanded transit system? Todd Long at GDOT, House Speaker David Ralston, Gov. Nathan Deal and Beverly Scott of MARTA have no idea how to pay those bills.
So they want us to run headlong into a system that does not relieve traffic congestion, will do little for the economy and there is no idea how we sustain the billions of dollars of mass transit costs.
Ladies and gentlemen, run as fast as you can to your polling place on July 31 and vote the T-SPLOST into extinction. Tell the special interest lobbyists to get the heck out of our transportation plans and force our government to develop a genuine plan that truly relieves traffic.
I recommend you look at www.TrafficTruth.net and go to the "Untie Atlanta Regional Taxes" page on Facebook.com if you want to get the truth on T-SPLOST.

Fayette Commissioner, Post 4
Transportation Leader Coalition member
Peachtree City, Ga.
The weekend version of the Today in Peachtree City has an article entitled, "Newspapers, readers scammed by political ad." Hofrichter, a local attorney in Fayetteville, is now trying to distance himself from the brutally harsh political ads. Hofrichter's friend Dean Howard, whose name also appears on bottom of the ad as the funding source, implied there were other people involved in paying for the ad as well, but no other names were listed.
Now questions of illegal activity are being raised with the possibility of the undisclosed funding sources not being listed on the ads and a political action committee not being formed in accordance with Georgia law.
According to Today in Peachtree City, Howard "refused to divulge the names [of the others involved]." Howard claimed, "I'm not at liberty to give that information."
Of course, Dean Howard's non-response to the question and the lack of an official filing with the state for any political organization related to either Howard or Hofrichter, is leading to the concern that it could be the Horgan, Hearn and Smith campaigns who are actually funding the inaccurate and divisive political ads in the newspaper.
You know the one where oh doom this is a citizens vote to vote NO to Tolls and Gas taxes and VOTE YES for well... a TAX.
Of course they don't call it that but....
Three votes cast last week in my household voted NO!
Marta's been in business since 1971 and still losing money, Pour management plain and simple, and I'm not willing help them!
...and reports I've seen are predicting 35% 'Yes' and 55% 'No'. People are just tired of taxes at this time, I believe.
I have lived in this town over 20 years, we are not going to ever see anything that make a difference in traffic. This is just another attempt to rifle thru your pockets. Funny, the don't call it a tax, it's a transportation initiative? If you buy a new car and shell out another 300 dollars, will you still say, it's just a penny? Marta fails, need to pump more cash into it, let's get Fayette, Coweta and all the other non Marta counties to funnel their money into our failed system. It's a scam people.
a 105 Driver?
No, not a pilot but a fan of the plane.
I did however work for this hometown airline. Got the lyrics confused from AC/DC, Dirty deeds and their done dirt cheap. Thought they were singing Dirty Deeds and the Thunderchief. People laughed and started calling me Thunderchief. Pun was not related to the aircraft 105 but at my error.
A "Thud" driver on this board. What are the odds???
Odds would be pretty high--as you can see, he wasn't--just a fan. Considering my background,I liked the Wild Weasel version! 105D also great on low-level penetration & bomb delivery, but they lost a lot of them! Personally, I preferred to watch an AC-130 work out!
The last "Thud" I seen was at the Wright Patterson museum.
Come to think of it, one of the aircraft types that I used to own is on display at the Pima Air Museum:
You know that you're getting old when stuff you used to own is a museums piece someplace!!!!!
We need to start thinking about another coffee get together.
10-4--maybe sometime after the election, we can meet and celebrate or drown sorrows!
invite EFDrake?? Although he will probably want something stronger than coffee after the election or, Saints Forfend, maybe we would be the ones needing something stronger if Elfie wins out in the election. But then, he would be too busy counting out all that money he will be getting with all those roads being built--he could then afford to buy his own ocean rather than having to sit on a measly little dock by a measly little lake.
C'mon--you know we have never attempted to limit attendance--period!
need to consider where we will meet--after all he does have the big bucks--lol
become "regardless of outcome"? Are you distorting my position again?!?
our turn. Besides, you are the good sport, we are the poor lil residents of PTC who can only afford coffee--you are Mr. Big Bucks, so it won't hurt you to splurge this once.
Willing to bury the hatchet in victory or defeat.
Looks like we'll be meeting at Krystal then because I don't think the TSPLOST will win. If it does, you got to come off the hip with some of that concrete money and we'll go to Pascal's or Broadway Diner :)
Next to Pascal's
After all the grief he has given us on this site I think the least he can do is reach in those deep pockets regardless of the winner---because after all--isn't he always a winner? (think he'll fall for that?) Either Pascal's or Broadway Diner sounds good to me.
Hey, Elfie, look at all the people you will meet there who will think you are such a great guy that you may be able to make some converts for the next T-SPLOST.
Who knows, if by some chance this does pass, I may at least be willing to splurge on some adult refreshments.
Gene, it's

May or may not be taking new patients--he didn't tell me. I'm an 'old' patient! Hope it works out for you.
It was a pleasure to meet you this morning.
can't make one last impassioned plea trying to win us over to the dark side? Or are you busy cashing a big check to pay for those delicious adult refreshments you will owe us? Can't wait......
Mike Lukovich in the AJC this morning nailed many of the opponents of T-SPLOST who just say no to everything and always will.
Mike Lukovich and Cynthia Tucker both continue to save me $220 per year. I never got around to thanking them publicly, until now.
Don't you remember all the lane closures and barrels from past "improvements" to I-285, which was originally built with two lanes in each direction and later widened? Don't you remember the road construction mess around the airport, which lasted for years?
The first immediate result from a Yes vote will be the tax and increased cost-of-living. The second result will be, for many years, lane closures, construction barrels, and more traffic congestion and delays, not less. The final result, much later, will be a slight improvement in traffic, but at a disproportionately high cost, and meanwhile a lot of changes will have taken place in our population size, where people live, where they work, and how they work, with possibly a large increase in tele-commuting and much less need "to go downtown." (Look at how much less we depend on the postal service, with email, and bill-paying through the internet. Most sports events now come to us through television, and we hardly need to go to them. Here in Fayette County we now have our own hospital and no longer need to go to Atlanta for medical services. Times are a-changing.)
If you're at the point where you'll be retired within ten years, then vote "no" on the T-SPLOST. By the time they get the projects going, you'll be retired rather than commuting.
One issue overlooked in the arguments against T-SPLOST is opportunity cost to the county citizens. A penny sales tax for regional mass transit and roads is one less penny sales tax that can be be sold to and absorbed by taxpayers in the future to improve local schools, improve county roads, expand public safety, or, even, reduce property taxes! This transportation penny sales tax will block new sales taxes on local projects with greater returns for at least ten years. Vote "NO."
I thought I had heard every convoluted justification for and against TSPLOST, but this one is pretty original - basically Woody is saying by voting the transportation tax down we are reserving the taxpayers capacity to absorb that one cent tax for something more noble - one of which is to improve local schools. I think that means a bailout for the school system because the BOE mismanaged their way into the deep waters of excessive staffing and excessive spending..
Whew! Well I have already voted against the TSPLOST and I sure hope others do as well, but any thought that the taxpayers of this county will vote themselves another one cent tax to bail out the school board is fanciful at best. They might vote to drown the school board, but a bailout? Never.
Now, Woody's other idea is a sales tax that reduces property taxes. I like that a lot. That should be explored because we have a couple of shopping magnets and employment centers that draw people from the adjacent counties and they spend money when they are here. And we would get it all - no redistribution through the sticky fingers of ARC or DOT - 100% comes to Fayette County. Then the redistribution is to property owners - even bypassing the free-spending Fayette County Commission. I'd have to see the math, but that seems more logical than anything I have heard all year.
"They might vote to drown the school board, but a bailout? Never."
Robert, I think you are right, about two of them anyway. ha ha
You lobbyist keep trying ...
The voters are learning the real facts ...
A penny sales tax for regional mass transit and roads is one less penny sales tax that can be be sold to and absorbed by taxpayers in the future to improve local schools, improve county roads, expand public safety, or, even, reduce property taxes!
I won't speak to all of that but the TSPLOST will return the following funds for local transportation projects:
- Peachtree City - $10,462,000
- Fayetteville - $5,033,000
- Tyrone - $2,981,000
- Brooks - $543,000
- Woolsey - $105,000
- Unicorporated - $26,482,000
That's a lot of local road maintenance and expanded capacity.
Necessary projects, like the I-85 & GA 74 interchange were going to be done anyway! The rest is waste.
The T-SPLOST construction list reminds me of all the Obama stimulus projects up and down Fayette County -- handicapped cross-walks with painted lines, signs with countdowns, ramps, etc. at every intersection, even though most of those intersections had absolutely no pedestrian access. They are crosswalks to nowhere!
How can I be excited about a transportation list that includes a very expensive Atlanta Beltline walking trail to nowhere? That's really going to cut down on traffic congestions. (Sarcasm)
I recommend you call State Planning Director Toby Carr, ask him when the 74/85 interchange is planned if the TSPLOST fails and report back to us. I assure you it isn't any time soon.
I recommend you call State Planning Director Toby Carr, ask him when the 74/85 interchange is planned if the TSPLOST fails and report back to us. I assure you it isn't any time soon.
Under TSPLOST plans this project would not be started until the 2016-2019 time-frame. You're saying that if we don't approve this bill it'll take even longer? LOL I'd better go see if I can change my vote to Yes!!! (sarcasm off)
I suggest that it will be *at least* eight years before the 74/85 interchange is completed with T-SPLOST. There is not going to be one -- not one -- project done under budget and on time if this thing passes. I have more faith in Obamacare cost projections than I do with these prepared by politicians and their cronies.
Like the old Goldwater theme -- "Deep in your heart, you know I'm right."
I get your position Woody. Government bad, bad, bad. But for those that realize transportation infrastructure is a legitimate function of government and that legitimate functions of government have to be paid for, here's a factual counter to Woody's opinion that all projects will be late and over budget. It is a National Cooperative Highway Research Program study that shows for the last decade, GDOT has been number one in the nation at delivering projects under budget and number two in the nation at delivering them on time.
Consider facts over emotion and vote YES for transportation.
The main problem is the we have a rotten project list. It was created by the special interest for the special interests.
You are cited who rubber stamped it, yes.
Look at all the entities benefiting from the TSPLOST forking out the big bucks to get the thing passed. Just saying.
More BS, Stevie. It was created by the county commission chairman and one mayor from each of the 10 counties plus the mayor of Atlanta to represent the particular needs of their communities and the region. Just because you hate our representatives on the committee, doesn't make it special interest.
What do county commissioners and mayors know about effective transportation solutions? They know politics and lack training or expertise in transit and highway planning. The wrong guys made the list. It would have been better if a professional study by engineers had been performed to determine the best ways to reduce commuting time rather than enhance politicians.
- The system was flawed from the beginning and the tax should be rejected
Woody - The politicians weren't operating in a bubble. The ARC, GDOT and GRTA were there the whole way to provide guidance and direction.
I suspect that 90% of the politicians making the list didn't consult technical research, plus I don't trust any of those sources you listed to be qualified and objective. Otherwise, how is it, after ten years and billions and billions of dollars (as Carl Sagan would say), that commuting time is estimated to be reduced by a staggering(!) 2 - 3%? We couldn't have a worse return with monkees throwing darts at a list of proposals.
The meetings were open to the public (I attended them) so you don't have to suspect anything, you could just ask. ARC, GDOT and GRTA were in the meetings and engaged the whole time. However, if you just don't trust any function of government, then vote no.
Gene, other than people with vested interests, who has time to attend all open state and county meetings and then have a chance for questioning and input? You're living in a dream world if you think my presence would have influenced anything or that I would have been impressed with the process. I've been to meetings like that before.
I've actually seen hot dogs made, and that's clean compared to watching politicians divvying up $8 billion in pork.
You vote "yes" because you have a vested interest in looting the public. I'll vote "no," because it's an honest reaction for responsible transportation planning rather than what is offered. We'll keep our dollars for better uses.

Please note: This is NOT an endorsement of the transportation SPLOST, and I understand that conservatives in general –and the Tea Party in particular – consider most taxes anathema owing to profoundly ingrained distrust in the government's ability to handle money efficiently.
That said, the moral outcry and thousands of words devoted to the indications and contraindications of this issue on The Citizen website seem colossally disproportionate to its potential impact on the pocketbooks of our residents in this, the 2nd richest (per capita) county in Georgia. Politifact estimates the tax to average about $132 a YEAR per resident. With a median household income in Fayette of $76,633, that means that you and your husband will be taxed an additional 0.34% of your annual income should the referendum pass. Many of us contribute $132 a MONTH for homeowners' association dues for the "good" of our little neighborhoods.
So feel free to vote it up or down and stand on your pro- or anti-government principles, but don't confuse this with anything resembling a budget breaker for Fayette residents. At most, it is a tiny nuisance.
There are many here who do not make that much. Even if we do, we would rather pay taxes directly in the coffers of Fayette that have them go into that big pot that will have no bottom. As much as we are tired of being taxed we are even more tired of our tax dollars being squandered. There are too many unanswered questions and/or too may pat answers that just seem too 'pie in the sky' for the majority of us.
That is quite understandable, mytmite. I assume that you will vote against the measure as is your right. My point is that this is not a great financial burden to many in our county, yet the rhetoric denotes cataclysmic consequences should the measure pass. I only ask for perspective instead of apocalyptic pronouncements about government take over of our lives.

It's OFFICIAL! Mariah Carey Has Joined "American Idol" As A Judge!
It's official: Mariah Carey is the latest successful pop diva to join American Idol!
The 42-year-old will join the judges table for season 12. Her salary is expected to be somewhere north of $12 million — the sum paid Jennifer Lopez during her first year on the show — and possibly as high as $17 million.
Wowza! Go Mimi!
"It's the biggest recording artist than any of these [singing competition] shows have ever had," Fox entertainment president Kevin Reilly told critics at their press tour in Beverly Hills on Monday. "It's an artist many of these contestants have tried to emulate."
The addition of Mimi comes on the heels of Steven Tyler quitting the show, and Fox being unable to convince Jennifer Lopez to sign on for a third round. Lopez was holding out for a raise beyond her $15 million second-year salary.
As of now, Randy Jackson (who is also Carey's manager) is now expected to stay on board, though nothing has yet been announced.
Either way, Fox is expected to now focus on its search for another male judge. According to reports, former American Idol contestant Adam Lambert is being considered.
What do you think of Mariah joining the show? Will she improve Idol's ratings?Read More

VIDEO: Adam Lambert Premieres "Better Than I Know Myself" Music Video!
Adam Lambert really brings the drama in his new music video for "Better Than I Know Myself."
In the music video, there are two versions of the former American Idol: a calm and charming guy with gorgeous baby blue eyes and then an unbalanced, pomegranate-ripping, leather-wearing Adam, whose heavily made-up eyes flash dangerously as he sets the whole place on fire.
The video could be about a former lover — but we think it has more to do with coming to terms and understanding his own personality.
