Speech carries various anxieties. Fear of asserting what is false should count as the most serious--inadvertent falsehood, as opposed to plain lying. The philosophical skeptic taps into this fear, making assertion seem perilous. In the 20th century fear of meaningless utterance became acute: it was all too easy to confuse the grammatical with the meaningful and end up spouting nonsense (the positivists tapped into this fear). This is more disturbing than the skeptical insinuation, because while truth is not transparent we feel that meaningfulness should be. Another linguistic fear, though, is the fear of cliche, of saying the hackneyed and over-used. I've always had a dread of this form of linguistic calamity and will go to almost any verbal lengths to avoid cliche--and yet the fear of it still dogs me. How can anyone still permit themselves to utter the phrases "emotional roller-coaster", "voracious reader", "like a deer caught in the headlights", etc? I wouldn't be caught dead with that stuff coming out of my mouth. What other linguistic fears are there? It would be interesting to compile a list and then impose a taxonomy. Speech is always an arena of anxiety, is it not?
The other day I was on the tennis court alone, practicing my serve. From nowhere I heard a sudden loud noise, like an explosive. I couldn't make out the source but then I noticed a flattened can on the other side of the court, about fifteen feet way. I went over to investigate and found a squashed can of corn beef hash, full, heavy. It had evidently been dropped from above the court, at least twenty floors up (the building has 44 floors and faces the tennis court). The act of dropping it had clearly been intentional and the purpose was presumably to scare me. If it had hit me on the head, it would certainly have killed me, such was the power of the impact. Reflecting on the incident later, it occurred to me that this was a minor act of terrorism: the purpose was to infuse an ordinary, peaceful activity--playing tennis--with fear and anxiety. And it worked: since that day I am always looking up and the calm of my tennis has been replaced with a kind of dread. Terrorists have made even the quotidian and tranquil into a zone of fear. Boy, would I like catch the person who did it. There is something nauseatingly sinister about the terrorist intention: to remove peace of mind.
How well understood is motion, really? Physics is supposed to be the science that predicts and explains all motions of matter; it describes the laws that govern the forces that move things. But there are some big gaps. The motions of particles are notoriously unpredictable and inexplicable at the quantum level, but at the cosmic level we have the problem of explaining galaxy acceleration--the universe is expanding more slowly than the calculated amount of matter in it would make us expect, given the accepted rules of gravity. Physicists have taken to speaking of "dark matter" a what accounts for the extra pull, but there is absolutely no evidence for the existence of such a thing--and isn't the idea of intrinsically invisible matter an oxymoron? It's just sheer handwaving. So we don't know why the cosmos is movingas it is. Do we know why animal bodies move as they do? Doesn't the mind play a role in "determining" these movements? But physics has nothing to say about the forces that govern the mind and its capacity to induce motion. I sometimes wonder if any motion has really been explained.
I recall reading somewhere that Keynes criticized Russell for saying that the problem with the world is that people are irrational and that the solution is that they should become rational. It seems a fair comment on Russell--but why is it a criticism? Because Russell's observation is a datum not an explanation: we want to know why people are irrational and how to improve their rationality. It's obvious what the problem is and also what the solution would be--but we need to know what causes irrationality and what we can do to fix it. Freud had a kind of theory of this but nowadays it looks pretty wacky. There seems to be a big theoretical gap here, urgently needing to be filled. (Of course, we won't recognize it if we start doubting that rationality is a robust matter.) I don't have a theory myself--human irrationality can seem the oddest and least adaptive trait of the species--but I do think we need to work on it. Why do people go around believing silly things and acting idiotically?
The New York Times (as well as AOL) today ran a picture of a lesbian couple getting married in California: Del Martin, 87, Phyllis Lyon, 84. They are holding hands and looking into each other's eyes, lined and grey and not long for this world; they have been together for 50 years. Doesn't it make you feel embarrassed that discrimination and prejudice have prevented them by law from getting married all these years? Doesn't it seem just utterly ridiculous? All this stuff about marriage being between a man and a woman: it's just complete whooey. I really wonder what all those anti-gay-marriage twits out there think and feel when they see a picture like that. Do they feel their own marriages under threat because these two old ladies are finally able to tie the knot? I think we owe them an apology myself.
Despite my many misgivings about our prized political system, it did manage to elect Barack Obama to be the Democratic nominee. I'm pleasantly surpised at my fellow man. It's not just his color, but also his calm, measured style, and obvious moral quality. But his color is, of course, highly significant. I can hardly think of a better thing for this country, and the world, than that he should be elected president. Political and moral progress is possible. Many blacks reported tears in their eyes when the announcement of his nomination was made; mine were damp too. This is a Big One. There's nothing quite so gratifying as seeing a horrible prejudice smashed to pieces.
I am struck by this passage from Tocqueville: "I have previously stated that the principle of the sovereignty of the people hovers over the whole political system of the Anglo-Americans. Every page of this book will reflect certain fresh instances of this doctrine. In nations were it exists, every individual takes an equal share in sovereign power and participates equally in the government of the state. Thus he is considered as enlightened, virtuous, strong as any of his fellow men." Toqueville's point is that democracy presupposes that each person is as competent and virtuous as any other. But of course this is false: people differ widely in intelligence and virtue. Note that he says "considered" not "really". So democracy rests on a lie. How, then, to defend democracy? Well, if truth, reason, virtue, etc are not objective qualities that people exemplify to varying degrees, but are rather relative to each person, we have a way out: everyone is as smart and good as anyone else to himself. Then democracy rests on no lie, since everyone really is cognitively and morally equal. Relativism steps in to save democracy from its noble lie. Thus relativism finds a foothold. But relativism is rubbish; so where does that leave democracy?
I watch how tennis players serve with great concentration. They all do it pretty much in the same way. And this way is quite different from the way amateur players serve, even quite decent amateur players. Claudio taught me the finer points of serving a few months ago (now, alas, he is back in Germany). High toss, long reach, bring the feet together, use a throwing action, backhand grip, snap the wrist down, plenty of side and top spin. It was incredibly awkward for me at first (backhand grip?!), but I took to practicing it almost every day for several months--not just on the court with a hopper of balls but also in my living room (no ball, just air). Gradually, the pieces came together, with some striking breakthroughs. Now what seemed alien feels natural. I can't serve any other way. It feels good to hit it just the way the pros do. There's a moral here--but I think it's too obvious for me to want to spell it out. Main point is: instead of fearing to serve, now I love to serve. Indeed, I can't wait to get down to the court and hit some serves.
My son Bruno told me yesterday that he'd just been watching a video of me on Youtube. Eventually it became clear what this video was of: a discussion I participated in a few years ago at the Philoctetes Centre in New York about evolution, consciousness, and the meaning of it all. I hadn't even remembered that it was being filmed, but it's a mark of our digital times that it has now shown up on the internet to be accessed by my son 3000 miles away. But that's not the point I'm most interested in making here; because Bruno observed that the scientists present were generally disagreeable and closed-minded (he actually used a much stronger word to describe them). And he's a scientist himself--a doctor (ENT). This prompted me to ponder who is more deplorable among us: the superstitious zealots who limit their knowledge to what the Bible tells them or the scientists who are unable or unwilling to take any question seriously which has no scientific answer--which includes most of the questions I as a philosopher spend my time on. Specifically, several of those present hated my bringing up the point that we have no good scientific theory of how consciousness evolved in the first place (or how it arises in the brain of every human being at some point or another--and not just human brains). Why are people so incapable of stepping outside the narrow world-view of their specific range of expertise--either the Bible or their particular scientific discipline? Is it fear, narcissism, laziness, bloody-mindedness?
Just when you think that, just conceivably, you might be overdoing the anti-religious diatribes, you read something like the article I came across last Saturday in the New York Times, about a chap called Specialist Jeremy Hall who was systematically persecuted by his army superiors and fellow soldiers for his atheist views. Particularly odious was the pressure to pray with others when he declared his lack of belief (not to mention the physical threats he endured). Such, apparently, is the military mind (excuse the oxymoron). We know they are a conformist lot, but I had no idea that religious conformity is rigorously enforced, though not officially. Anyway, it made me think of yet another reason to deny God's existence: surely if he did exist he'd come forward to denounce the actions performed in his name. I would, wouldn't you? At least he'd send some sort of emissary, if not his son then at least some high-ranking celestial colleague or other--the angel Gabriel doesn't seem to have been up to much for a while, lolling away up there. Send someone important to earth, put people straight about right and wrong, about what God really wants from us. But oh no, God just lets it all happen--even atrocities on a vast scale. A few words from him, convincingly stated, and we would know what's what, but apparently he just can't be bothered. More likely, the lack of divine corrective indicates a lack of divine existence. Specialist Hall, I'm with you.
As the Obama/Clinton wars drag on, I think of the malign effects of elections. We don't have a pure participatory democracy, such as once obtained in Athens, no doubt for good reasons of practicality. We have a so-called representative democracy, which requires that we elect our leaders by something like popular vote. This requires those things dignified by the word "election": money-driven, ad hominem, gotcha-loving, manipulative, mindfucking, demeaning, grotesque, corrupt, vicious, boring, fake, and so on. The candidates have to persuade the electorate to vote for them, and from this simple fact all the evils flow (combined with a full-blown capitalist-media complex). Imagine having to make yourself popular with everyone in order to be promoted in your job! I would never have got anywhere. I rather despise popularity, seeing it as the sure mark of a lack of integrity. Democracy is bad enough, but to combine it with the hunger for mass popularity is ten times worse. Down with elections!
The pope came and went. Two aspects of his proclamations stood out: on the one hand, his call for more authority and obedience, especially when it comes to the demands of the Catholic church; on the other hand, his condemnation of the sexual abuse inflicted by his priests. Did he not notice a tension between these two sentiments? He's supposed to be logically astute, but it's pretty obvious that the latter thing followed quite smoothly from the former: unquestioning obedience to the authority of the representatives of the church, i.e. priests, is what made possible the sexual abuse they so easily and revoltingly practiced on their "parishioners". You would have thought the pope's message might have been "Don't blindly do what priests tell you!". But then contradictions have never been much of an impediment to the skilled theologian (problem of evil and all that).
In order for democracy to be acceptable, it needs to be combined with legal protections for the rights of minorities (gays, atheists, et al), or else there will be a tyranny of majority rule. But these protections cannot be made subject to the will of the majority or they lose their point and force. So, they must stay in place even if the majority opposes them--which is undemocratic. Therefore, democarcy is acceptable only if it is not absolute. A tolerable form of democracy cannot be consistently democratic. The problem is that democracy and individual rights are at odds with each other.
Now that really is a taboo word. You must never call anyone stupid! But aren't some people just plain stupid? And isn't stupidity the source of much of the world's misery? I'd like to see a "Stupidity Science" movement in which the phenomenon is studied and taxonomized and explained--and remedied. I am certainly not a relativist about stupidity; I think stupidity is an objective trait. Maybe we all all stupid sometimes--but some people are stupid a lot of the time. Stupidity, as I mean it here, refers especially to the opinions and utterances of people who should know better. As the old saying goes: "It would only take a minute's thought...but thought is a difficult thing and a minute is a long time." In the end, of course, stupidity is about character, not IQ.
I was surprised the other day to discover that the "Founding Fathers" (silly phrase), especially John Adams, were quite opposed to democratic government, deeming it mob rule. The Constitution was mainly designed to protect individual rights from any form of tyranny, including majority rule. The reason was the stupidity and selfishness of the average person. This set me to wondering how much of the present state of politics and culture in the USA is the result of misguided democracy. Successful democracy depends upon an adequately educated electorate, unprejudiced and altruistic: but these conditions are not always satisfied by the voters out there. In fact, there is no requirement in the US political system for a president to have even a minimum of education, or even to be able to read and write. Maybe if recognized experts, unelected, were given some political power, the current ills might be mitigated.
What I really think about religion is that the less said about it the better. I'd rather discuss almost any other topic. Debating it always leaves me feeling faintly nauseated. However, religious belief does connect with a topic that does interest me: psychological manipulation. As it happens, I have a new book (very short) coming out on it next month, called--wait for it--Mindfucking. In it I analyze this concept, just as we analytic philosophers are supposed to. People I mention it to think I must be being funny or provocative, but it is actually quite a serious work, with many a ponderous formulation. I'm interested in how our minds can be manipulated--by other people, the media, governments, whole disciplines. Perhaps one's main intellectual responsibility is to ensure that one's mind has not been fucked by outside forces intent on manipulation and control. Let me invite my esteemed commentators here to enter their thoughts on the topic of mindfucking--a healthier subject than the one lately occupying this digital location.
Another breath of fresh air emanates from my recent tennis life. I now have two coaches, David and Claudio. David often counsels me to "hit the ball with love" and he can't stand sloppy footwork. Claudio advocates "more power" and works with me on precise details of the stroke. David is Latin American, Claudio is German. Both are fine tennis players, and superb coaches (and very nice guys). Under their joint, and complementary, influence, my game has been improving dramatically--especially my backhand topspin. This is an example of human cooperation at its best. I've also been employing a new method of practicing: in bed at night I go through my strokes in my imagination, dwelling on the details, trying to install the technique in my mind and body. And it works. For anyone wanting to learn to play properly, here's a bit of advice: work on the stroke with someone who knows how to play without even hitting a ball, in your front room or back yard. Get it right before you venture onto a court; then you won't have laods of bad habits you need to eradicate.
I well remember that sunny morning a few years ago when Jonathan Miller came to my apartment in New York to discuss the non-existence of God. We had been friends for a number of years, and had discussed a great many topics, but we had never, except glancingly, ever spoken about religion. We knew about our shared atheism, but the subject didn't seem to warrant much attention; in the Miller-McGinn world it was a non-existent topic. So our conversation that morning, which went on for a good two hours, was fresh material. It was a smooth and easy conversation, with much humor and mutual understanding. And yet we were attacking the foundations of what billions of people find essential to living happily (or that's what they think). In earlier centuries, or in other places, we would have been gruesomely executed for having such a congenial chat.
It is often forgotten that atheism of the kind shared by Jonathan and me (and Dawkins and Hitchens et al) has an ethical motive. Or rather two ethical motives: one is ethical repugnance at the cruelty, tyranny and oppression of organized religion over the course of human history; the other concerns the ethics of rational belief—how we are obliged to form our beliefs about the world. The first motive is familiar and needs no commentary from me. The second is less widely appreciated, but for some of us it is crucial to the whole discussion. We believe, as an ethical principle, that beliefs about what reality contains should always be formed on the basis of evidence or rational argument—so that "faith" is inherently an unethical way to form your beliefs. To believe "on faith" is to believe that the world is a certain way (contains a god etc) without the support of either empirical or logical justification. This violates the ethics of belief—how you ought to arrive at your convictions. That, for us, is the original sin of theism; and from this sin the other sorts of sin arise—religious intolerance, persecution, violence.
In the Atheism Tapes you will see this ethical perspective amply displayed. Atheists through the ages have been moved by a moral imperative: to uphold the rationality of belief. Wishes can never replace justification as a ground of conviction. Contrary to the popular myth, atheists are not people who have abandoned the idea of the moral good; they are people with a particularly clear sense of what moral goodness requires. From our point of view, the typical theist has already done something morally wrong simply in being a theist.
I just wrote a review of Against Happiness by Eric G. Wilson for the Wall Street Journal. It's an interesting and provocative book, arguing that American culture is far too obsessed with happiness and not respectful enough of misery. The author admits to his melancholic tendencies, but celebrates them, rather than lamenting them. The general point is that gloom produces insight, creativity and depth, while happiness is bland and static. It raises the question in my mind of whether utilitarianism might have neglected the fact that melancholy can sometimes be a good thing--both instrumentally and intrinsically. Instrumentally, because it can lead to wisdom, creativity etc; but also intrinsically, in that a certain sort of melancholy might be good in itself. What do people think?
Let "weak ethical egoism" be the doctrine that it is wrong to count other people's interests as having more weight than your own like interests, i.e. acting like a "martyr". Let "strong ethical egoism" be the doctrine that it is wrong to count other people's interests as having ANY weight in a case of conflict with your own like interests. Weak EE proceeds from a principle of impartiality in which your interests are not subordinated to the (like) interests of others, and it looks like plain common sense. But strong EE violates such an impartiality principle, and thus is plainly immoral.

What happened to the "balance" in the San Miguel County Oil and Gas Task Force?
The staff and students of Legion Park Elementary School would like to thank Hacienda and Gamble's for their generous loan of a combined 200 brown-paper shopping bags. In celebration of upcoming Earth Day, the students colored each bag with a picture of what they love most about our planet (and, on some, a heartfelt message to us adults to save it for them). These bags have been given back to each store for distribution during the month of April.
An enjoyable aspect of writing a column is talking to and learning from people. Often, as I once did with the term "church key," I ask people younger than I (and that includes the masses) what certain words mean to them.
Alta Vista Regional Hospital, which has an eight-member advisory board of area residents, won't allow the San Miguel County Commission to have a seat at the table.
Recently, the county requested to have a representative on the board. But hospital CEO Richard Grogan wrote back that the board considered the request and decided against it.
We don't know who is on the board, and Alta Vista is not eager to tell us. Its spokesman didn't reply to a request for that information last week.
These days, just about everyone agrees that we need to develop clean energy alternatives. Over the long haul, the future cannot run on fossil fuels; instead, renewable energy sources must determine our economic and environmental destiny. So it's imperative that we move toward solar, wind and other energy-producing alternatives.
On Thursday, conservatives from across the country rallied against big government and taxes at so-called tea parties. They even held a demonstration in ultra-liberal Santa Fe.
The tea party's message — combined with a hatred of President Obama — is simple. Sure, we can all agree that we don't want a huge, overbearing government. And everyone likes lower taxes.
But these tea party activists don't give many specifics about what they would do.
The 16th annual Fiesta de la Hispanidad took place in March in Ilfeld Auditorium and was, as every other year, a huge success thanks to the participation of our community members, both those performing and in the audience.
My mother is Pat Harris and was talking to you about writing a letter thanking your city. She was thanking your city for the safe return of her grandson Nicholas Gage Kolb which is my son. (The letter ran May 22, 2009.)
He made a stupid decision and ran away from home. We live in Louisiana. I am currently having the typical teenage problems out of him and I decided to put the article in his baby book for if he ever grows up he can have. I just found the article dated May 2009. This is the first time I had seen it. I just wanted to thank you again.

Revolutionary Thinking
Apr 16, 2009 by Howard Baker | 0 Comments
But if the Spirit of Him who raised Jesus from the dead dwells in you, He who raised Christ Jesus from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies through His Spirit who dwells in you. (Romans 8:11)
Until the love of God that knows no boundary, limit, or breaking point is internalized through personal decision; until the furious longing of God seizes the imagination; until the heart is conjoined to the mind through sheer grace, nothing happens. The idolatry of ideas has left me puffed up, narrow-minded, and intolerant of any idea that does not coincide with mine.
The wild, unrestricted love of God is not simply an inspiring idea. When it imposes itself on mind and heart with the stark reality of ontological truth, it determines why and at what time you get up in the morning, how you pass your evenings, how you spend your weekends, what you read, and who you hang with; it affects what breaks your heart, what amazes you, and what makes you happy.
The revolutionary thinking that God loves me as I am and not as I should be requires radical rethinking and profound emotional readjustment.
--Brennan Manning, The Furious Longing of God, p.75

MEDFORD, Ore. — Two charter schools in the area are being renewed after a near-unanimous vote of approval by the Medford School Board. The vote Monday extended the charter of Logos school for three years, and Madrone Trail School by five years.
The two schools have combined to add roughly 900 students to the district's total enrollment. Dr. Phil long, Superintendent of Medford Public Schools, says the decision to extend their charters is good for the district.
They've reconnected people to our public schools and they've added to our enrollment as a district. They've brought resources to our region because of that, because funding follows the kids. And that has been one of the stabilizing things in our community, for our district in particular," Superintendent Dr. Phil Long.
Long also says that the vote is a good sign of the schools' performance, as charter schools typically face a good deal of scrutiny.

Bill Regan, Regancrest Holsteins, loads his drill. His dairy, which will host the Farm Progress Hay Expo, June 19-20, lost just more than 6 acres of alfalfa to winterkill.
As Upper Midwestern forage growers realize the extent of winterkill damage in their fields, Extension service specialists have put together resources offering advice.
The University of Minnesota devoted a Web page to winter injury damage, called "Alfalfa weather damage and emergency forages – 2013." The page has advice on stand assessment, replanting forages and small grains, and it answers questions on autotoxicity in alfalfa.
It also offers livestock producers suggestions on short- and long-term inventory needs as well as how to get the most from damaged crops.
Another information-packed item from the U of M: a story called "Maximizing forage in winter injured and killed stands, Spring 2013."
The University of Wisconsin Extension Cooperative Service, as part of its drought resources, offers a page called Alfalfa Winterkill. It provides information on alternative crops for forage and making a feed inventory. Additional information can be found in the items, "Nitrogen Credits Following Winterkilled Alfalfa," and "Alfalfa Removal in Spring."
In northeastern Iowa, updates are offered in Iowa State University's (ISU) Crop Notes, by Brian Lang, ISU Extension agronomist.

Spent the weekend here. It was a 6 hour bus ride from Kunming. Once here, it was like paradise. There are many pools of mineral springs of different temperature. One of the pool was 88 degrees C. and people had boiled their eggs in there. My favourite pool was the one with the little fish in it. You would dip... More

Hall brace denies Gills
Southend winger Ryan Hall twice came to the rescue to earn Southend a 2-2 draw against fellow promotion hopefuls Gillingham at Roots Hall.The visitors took the lead in the seventh minute when Curtis Weston passed inside to the onrushing Cody McDonald, who scored with a low right-footed effort into the bottom corner for his 18th goal of the season.But Blues equalised in the 15th minute when Hall curled a 30-yard free-kick around a five-man Gills wall and past Alan Julian.However, two minutes later and the away side were back in front. Blair Sturrock's foul on McDonald resulted in a penalty, and Adebayo Akinfenwa made no mistake from 12 yards as he fired low into the corner beyond the dive of Rhys Evans.Yet eight minutes after the restart Hall levelled again when he was teed up by Sturrock and blasted home into the top left corner from just inside the box.Both teams hit the woodwork while Julian and Evans made some fine saves, before Chris Barker's late goal-line clearance denied the Kent visitors victory.

Quincy Jones: We were in the heart of the ghetto in Chicago during the Depression, and every block -- it was probably the biggest black ghetto in America -- every block -- it also is the spawning ground probably for every gangster, black and white, in America too. So, we were around all of that. We saw that every day. There was a policeman named Two Gun Pete, a black policeman, who used to shoot teenagers in the back every weekend and everything happened there all the time. A gang on every street: the Vagabonds, the Giles HC, the Scorpions, and just on and on. In each gang they had the dukes and duchesses, junior and senior, which accommodated everybody in the neighborhood. That was the whole idea, for unity, really. Our biggest struggle every day was we were either running from gangs or with gangs. And it was just getting to school and back home. Because if your parents aren't home all day, you know, it's a notorious trek. I still have the medals here from the switchblade through my hand, pinned to a tree. I had an ice pick here in the temple one time. But, when you're young, nothing harms you, nothing scares you or anything. You don't know any better. And in the summertime -- the schools were the roughest schools probably in America. I saw teachers getting hurt and maimed and everything every day, and it was everyday stuff.

I wanted to get out of that house. I didn't want to be there. Eight kids and a stepmother, and I just wanted to be out of there. So, when I got a scholarship from Boston to the Schillinger House, which is now the Berklee School of Music, I couldn't wait to get out of there. And my aunt sent me a ticket by train to go there. I stopped in Chicago and I went into Boston at night -- the most terrifying thing I've ever seen in my life. Because it was pitch black and you get there and you've got your trumpet and this little bag, your bag of clothes, not much, no place to stay but I had a scholarship and that was sort of a blanket, a security blanket I could hold on to. And, one thing led to another. I walked around the neighborhood to try to find out where I could stay. I got a place for $10.

Then we hit the road and we'd get to places like Texas. This is when every place had "white" and "colored" to wait in the bus stations and the water fountains, all over America. You couldn't stay in a white hotel anywhere. We played dances in New Orleans and they'd have chairs straight down the middle of the thing with chairs to go both ways, white on this side and that side. Then the places in North Carolina and South Carolina, they'd have $2.50 and $3.50 general admission for the black people, white spectators $1.50. I still have the signs, you know. And they'd sit upstairs and drink and watch the black people dance, you know. It was unbelievable. We played juke joints and people would get shot and we'd go through Texas. We always had a white bus driver because we couldn't stop in the restaurants. And sometimes we'd see effigies -- like black dummies -- hanging by nooses from church steeples in Texas. That's pretty heavy, on the church steeple, and they've got a black dummy, which means "Don't stop. Don't even think about coming here," and the bus kept moving. And then they'd finally get to places where we'd get the driver -- the white driver would go in and get food for the band. And sometimes in Newport News we slept -- I remember Jimmy Scott and I slept in a funeral parlor where the bodies were. There was no hotel so this guy said, "I've got a place. You can stay here these two days." We got $17 a night. You're not thinking about some suite at the Waldorf.

We got a last-minute call one time from the White House to go immediately from Istanbul to Athens, Greece because the Cypriot students were stoning the embassy. Whenever that happened we got called immediately to go in there, and play for these same kids. That was pretty scary because you could feel the energy and the hostility against whatever policy was going wrong at that time, whether it was Beirut and Israel, or the Cypriots and the Greeks. And after that concert, they rushed the stage -- the kids -- and we thought we were in trouble. Instead, they put Dizzy Gillespie on their shoulders and they were just running around the auditorium singing to him and everything else. It was great!

I look back on that summer and I think, as a mom, I was literally getting out of bed every day going, "Oh, my God, I don't know what I'm doing. I feel ill-equipped. I don't know how to handle these kids. I've just done the best I can from moment to moment, living a paycheck away from the streets." I got tired of being on welfare, so I put myself in college. And trying to give Ashley what she so needed and deserved as far as stability, and trying to give Wynonna something to get us through the day.

But the biggie really was when I was told I had a couple of years. That will get your attention in a major way, especially when it's a sticky wicket because you're an RN and you're a member of the medical community and you see the writing on the wall. You can look at the pathology report laying there on the doctor's desk, and he doesn't even have to open his mouth, and you go "Uh oh!" And once again, I had to step out in total faith, but it was one of the greatest lessons of my life, because I began a voyage of self discovery and what actually became a journey to wholeness for me.

Former President of Afghanistan
By the first of October of 2001, just a month and a few days after 9/11, I was one day sitting with four of my colleagues and I told them that Afghanistan cannot have any more of this. Let's move in and the world community might help us. They said, "No, the world will not help us." I said, "They will." They said, "You have been telling us for five or six years. Nobody has helped." I said, "This is a different time. Think of New York. Think of what happened there. The world has woken up. Let's move into Afghanistan. Let's move into the heart of Taliban." View Interview with Hamid KarzaiView Biography of Hamid KarzaiView Profile of Hamid KarzaiView Photo Gallery of Hamid Karzai
In the morning before we moved into Afghanistan, I told my colleagues, I said, "Listen, friends, we are moving into Afghanistan. It's taken over by terrorists. It's taken over by Taliban. It's taken over by all sorts of foreign people that have come to Afghanistan that are ruining life for us and for the rest of the world. We might be captured the moment we enter Afghanistan and be killed. Are you willing to face that?" I also said, "We have 60 percent chance of death and 40 percent chance to live and survive." Winning was no consideration. I mean we could not even think of that. They said, "All right, let's do it." We got on two motorbikes. We drove into Afghanistan, straight from the Pakistani border.

The man came to me, woke me up at about 4:30 in the morning and I was in a tent that was made out of a parachute of the things that came from the sky and he said that, "They are coming." I said, "Who?" He said, "What do you mean 'who?' The Taliban!" This villager is here and he said, "They are coming." I said, "All right. Let's go and stop them." I went back to sleep. Imagine. I never imagined that they would dare come to us 11 hours away and walk all that long. After another half an hour he came by. He said, "I have two prisoners." I said, "What do you mean two prisoners?" He said, "The Taliban. Two Afghans have come and surrendered and they told him that 400 are on their way. They are mostly Arabs and Pakistanis. They are after you. They will kill you, you can be sure." View Interview with Hamid KarzaiView Biography of Hamid KarzaiView Profile of Hamid KarzaiView Photo Gallery of Hamid Karzai
We decided to take him (my father) to Afghanistan, to Kandahar. The Taliban were in charge there. And lots of people came to me and said, "Don't do that. You will go into Afghanistan and the Taliban will arrest you." I said, "No. I want to go, and if they have the guts, let them arrest me." So I just went on the -- together with the procession. We were about --I don't know -- a hundred cars or something, and we took my father's body to Kandahar and buried him there and then left Kandahar. People felt at that time that that was a silly move.

A relief pitcher is credited with a hold any time he enters a game in a save situation, records at least one out and leaves the game never having relinquished the lead. A pitcher cannot finish the game and receive credit for a hold, nor can he earn a hold and a save in the same game.

Current Time
Chicago , Illinois
Tel: 312 222 1525
Concierge.com's insider take:
The classic Saturday Night Live skit where native Chicagoan John Belushi played a harried Greek line cook—shouting, "Cheezborger, cheezborger, cheezborger. No Pepsi. Coke!"—brought this Chicago institution (which the skit was based on) to national fame in the late '70's. But it's been a local landmark since its original owner, William Sianis, was forbidden by the Chicago Cubs management from bringing his house goat—yes, a real live goat—to Wrigley Field during a 1945 World Series game. Located across the street, and practically beneath, the stately Tribune Tower on a gloomy stretch of Lower Michigan Avenue, the place is immensely popular with tourists. Even so, it's still a haunt for local reporters and advertising execs, and it still serves good, greasy cheeseburgers on fluffy buns. Take time to peruse the yellowed newspaper clippings and Hall of Fame photos that decorate the walls—they're a crash course in Chicago history.
Open Mondays through Fridays 6 am to 2 am, Saturdays 10 am to 3 am, Sundays 11 am to 2 am.

i love using this smudged in the inner corners of my eyes under simething shimmery like mac vanilla pigment. fascinating is also fabulous for people with small eyes to use on their waterline for the appearance of larger, wider eyes.

This is by far the best white eyeliner I have tried! it goes on creamy, smooth, pigmented without smudging on your waterline. My eyeliner collection mostly consists of NYX, all the colors I have tried all stay on my waterline and go on perfectly- however the white eyeliner was awful, and others I tried by other brands also where not good (Rimmel, Annabelle etc....) I was happy to receive this in a swap :) the color is perfect and is wonderful for when you really want to make your eyes stand out, its the perfect white eyeliner! maybe not the cheapest, but this is one eyeliner I would spend $16 on....maybe not the other colors, since NYX gets my love for that- but this color, no question.
2 out of 2 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
This has to be the best white eyeliner out there. It is insanely creamy, it glides on very easily on the water line. I don't really use it as much. It is great to brighten up your eyes.
This is the best matte white khol eyeliner I've tried so far in terms of pigmentation and staying power. I use this on my waterline and its still there and intact after 8 hours of work. Make sure to apply with a light hand else the color is too strong and looks unnatural and the pencil flakes and little clumps of white crap get smudged all over your eyes.
A great matte white eyeliner, i love this. It has great staying power and blends wonderfully. No complaints yet!

This is my first MAC product and I like it. It makes my eyes look frosty which is nice but I am not sure it looks natural on me. It comes off a bit during the day. I think I prefer to line my eyes with light eyeshadows.
a matte white kohl with decent staying power power.its not as creamy and smooth as the other kohl liners, and the pigment is just ok. nothing great about it.
-Smooth and goes on easily (True to Kohl label/name)
-True white.
-Glides on waterline fine, and actually SAFE for waterline.
-Fades on me throughout the day (varies person to person)
-Price for a white eyeliner.. Hum.
-MAC Kohls in general smudge on me.

Social Security Disability SSI and Medical Evidence Filing for Disability Benefits Eligibility for Disability Benefits SSDRC authored by Tim Moore Ask a question, get an answer |
Filing for Social Security Disability or SSI with Multiple Sclerosis MSIt is estimated that roughly 300,000 Americans have a diagnosis of multiple sclerosis with an additional 200 newly diagnosed cases each week. Multiple Sclerosis is an extremely debilitating disease that can cause significant disorganization of an individual's motor function (i.e. walking, standing, gripping, holding, etc.), visual disturbances, extreme fatigue, and even mental impairment. Unfortunately, multiple sclerosis is a progressive neurological disease for which there is no known cure. Social Security recognizes the potential debilitating effects of multiple sclerosis. In fact, the Social Security disability handbook has a specific neurological impairment listing for MS. Listing 11.09 provides the specific disability criteria needed to meet Social Security disability and SSI disability severity requirements. To meet or equal this impairment listing, an individual must, of course, first have a diagnosis of MS. All disability applicants need objective medical evidence from acceptable medical treatment sources (licensed or certified medical professionals) that documents their diagnosis. Individuals with MS should be able to provide a medical history that might include but is not limited to: A. Clinical notes B. Imaging techniques, i.e. MRI testing of the brain or spine or neuroimaging techniques (imaging techniques that directly or indirectly image the function and/or structure of the brain such as CT scans, x-rays, diffuse optical imaging, etc) C. A diagnosis, prognosis, response to treatment, and a description of symptoms and limitations. Once a diagnosis of MS has been established an individual's symptoms must include one of the following: 1. Constant significant disorganization of function in two of their extremities that results in persistent disturbance of their gross and dexterous movements, or station and gait as described in neurological impairment listing 11.04 B; or 2. Visual impairment that causes a loss of visual acuity that leaves the vision in the better eye after correction (glasses or contacts) at 20/200 or less as described in visual impairment listing 2.02; or a severe contraction of their visual field as described in the vision impairment listing 2.03 A, B, and C; or a visual efficiency in the better eye of twenty percent or less as determined by kinetic perimetry as described in vision impairment listing 2.04. 3. Mental impairment that causes a disorientation as to time or place, impairment of short, intermediate, or long term memory, thinking or perceptual disturbance such as delusions or hallucinations, personality changes, mood disorders, emotional lability (i.e. explosive temper outbursts or sudden crying spells, etc.); Or a loss of measured intellectual functioning from premorbid levels documented by neuropsychological testing that results in: significant restriction of daily activities, social functioning, maintaining concentration, persistence, or pace, repeated long lasting episodes of decompenstation; Or, a documented history of MS of at least two years that has caused more than minimal limitation of their ability to do basic work activities with symptoms relieved by medication or psychosocial support along with one of the following: a) residual disease process that has caused a marginal adjustment in which even a small increase in mental demands or change in environment would be predicted to cause the individual to decompensate, b) or repeated long lasting episodes of decompensation, c) or a current medical history of one or more years of an inability to function outside of a highly supportive living arrangement along with a continued need for this type of living arrangement as described in mental impairment listing 12.02 Organic Brain Disorders. 4. Lastly, substantial reproducible fatigue of motor function with significant muscle weakness upon repetitive activity--documented by a physical examination--caused by neurological dysfunction in areas of the central nervous system acknowledged to be pathologically involved in the MS disease process. If an individual meets or equals the criteria described in the above impairment listing, they may receive disability benefits provided they meet the non-medical requirements of Social Security disability or SSI (non-disability requirements refer to proof of income, identity, place and date of birth, etc). Many individuals affected by multiple sclerosis do not meet or equal the impairment listing criteria because this criteria is very specific. However, they still may qualify for disability with Social Security if their MS symptoms have caused significant restriction to their functional abilities. Social Security disability is not based upon having specific impairments but, instead, on how those impairments limit an individual's ability to perform substantial gainful activity, or SGA as it is more commonly known (see current SGA monthly earnings limit). The Social Security definition of disability contends that a condition is disabling if it is a medically determinable impairment (in other words, can be proven through medical evidence) that has prevented an individual from performing SGA-level work activity for twelve months, or is expected to prevent and individual from performing SGA for twelve continuous months, or may result in death. Because of this definition of disability, individuals who do not necessarily meet or equal an impairment listing may be able to qualify for disability benefits based upon a medical vocational allowance. Medical vocational allowance decisions are based upon several factors. Disability examiners consider an individual's age, education, residual functional capacity (the functional abilities that are left to them despite their condition), past work, the transferability of their work skills and their ability to perform other types of work (considering their limitations) when making a medical vocational determination. If multiple sclerosis has caused an individual's residual functional capacity to be so restrictive that the individual is no longer capable of engaging in substantial and gainful work activity, they may be approved for disability benefit even if they do not meet or equal the requirements of the multiple sclerosis impairment listing.

And if there's one way for the Young Mr. Weidman to avoid this fate? Robinson's got the answer and it rhymes with "legacy." Actually, the word was "legacy" so we kind of screwed THAT up.

Genuine Parts - Air Filters
Clean Air for Your Car
The air filter plays an integral role in ensuring your engine receives the exact amount of clean and contaminant-free air. A genuine Jaguar air filter is guaranteed to meet two key standards: calibration and filtration.
Every Jaguar is developed with the optimal level of calibration and tuning. This high level of precise calibration is maintained and prolonged by genuine Jaguar air filters, which are designed to work with a specific vehicle and engine. Genuine Jaguar air filters also have a specific structure and layout to form the perfect air flow needed by the engine system and its sensors. If a filter with an inferior structure is used, there is a risk that this air flow can be disrupted, leading to issues with sensor readings. In the worst case, these issues can hinder engine performance and fuel economy, even notably increase tailpipe emissions.
The air drawn into an engine contains harmful particles such as dirt or dust. An air filter with poor levels of filtration may let enough air flow into the engine system, but may not provide sufficient protection against these particles. Poor protection would lead to these harmful particles damaging the engine system and compromising power, emissions, and fuel economy levels. Jaguar air filters provide a micron level of filtration against any harmful particles. Our Air filters are also designed to minimise the restriction of air flow, and maintain a controlled flow of clean air needed by the engine system. The end result is a filter that excels in performance and protection.

There were NO boats around and NO seals around. It was near low and the water was calm on this inlet. Long story short, Gary gets hit!! So I keep an eye on him, rod is bending pretty damn good and his reel is like tick, tick, tick...szzzzzzzzzzz! He is now walking toward the water with this thing pulling line and him faster and harder than anything I have ever seen. He had a shimano stratic with a 8 ft st. croix. Kid never touched the drag which by the way didn't much engage with any of his earlier action. So it pulled line of like a freakin rocket he was walking toward the water and then the drag speed up even faster tipp POP! Gary feel on his ass with a broken line. I was freaked out Like what the blank was that??? Anyone get spooled? Anyone have a clue to what that was. No it wan't a boat or a seal.

Draven Dylan Herringbone Shoe 2 2
Comfortable I never take this shoes off . I liked them so much I bought 2 pairs. May 7, 2014
Used shoes, seriously? I've been shopping with buckle for years. Luckily this is the first time this has happened but it still happened. I ordered these shoes and even paid overnight shipping for them. Only to open the box and see they were not new but used. Scuff marks all over, lint all over inside, yellow stains on the sides and the white stitch was already brown/black from being worn.This is ridiculous and embarrassing in my opinion. I am a manager and to even think this would be okay to send to a customer is apauling. Now lets see how well they're managed when I return these shoes for NEW ones. August 7, 2013

Poor Rob! The 'Twilight' star reportedly hasn't 'dropped' K-Stew yet and is still totally hung up on her! Read on for more details!
Robert Pattinson's heart is aching. And even though his girlfriend of four years, Kristen Stewart, did the unthinkable and cheated on him – he's still not totally ready to move on from her.
"Even though Rob is very angry with Kristen, he's still in love with her," a friend tells Life & Style magazine. "He has a soft spot for her. He's seen her suffer; she has apologized a hundred times to him — she's a wreck. His friends are all worried that he'll crumble and take her back. They don't want him to go back to her — they want him to move on — but he has not dropped her yet."
Rob, 26, reportedly had his eye on Kristen, 22, before they met on the Twilight set — four years ago. We can't imagine how devastated Rob feels right now, so we don' blame him for not moving on just yet.
What do YOU think, HollywoodLifers? Should Rob take Kristen back? Read on for more details!

Come on Rob you have to get back together with Kristen. She has been through hell. And if you are seriously seeing Katy Perry she is the trampyre. Kristen is so in love with you and is gorgeous and you make a great couple. Katy Perry has probably slept with everyone she can get her hands . You and Kristen deserve to be together. Don't let your friends tell you who you can see and who not to see. If you don't get back with Kristen and go with that slut Katy Perry she will hurt you like no other. She is just using you to prove to Kristen that you can date someone else. I will never watch anything of yours if you don't take Kristen. When you two are together there is so much love between you too. Right now I have to go because seriously this has left me ill and depressed. And shoud you choose not to stick by Kristen and get back together. I will let my family send you my obituary notice. I am a Kristen Fan. God said that we have to forgive before he forgive us. So come on and get back with Kristen or I will put a gun to my head, seriously.

I have said this so many times, it's not your friends place to tell you who you should love or not love, your friends Tom and his girlfriend has done bad things to, they have no right to tell you what to do or say for that matter, Rob this is the woman you love, who made a big mistake, and she has paid highly for what she's done, people call her names, say bad things about her, even you own friends have turned against her, why is it so? why is it they won't give her another chance too?? why is it so important for you to move on, it's not there life, it's yours and she loves you, she is paying for it in more ways then you, She is all alone, she's afraid, she's lonely without you and empty inside, she's punching herself everyday for what she did, she lost jobs, she can't even go outside, what more does she have to do.
If you love her then you will work it out and find out together why this happened, stop listening to everyone else and start listening to your heart and I'm sure Bear would love to have her back to, think of all the good times and stop doing what everyone else whats you to do, be a man and stand up to these people who want to run your life. I have been with you two from the beginning, I've watched you both and I've see so much love when you looked at each other, it's still there if you look hard enough.
Love Is Patient Poem
Love is patient, love is kind.
It does not envy, it does not boast,
it is not proud. It is not rude,
it is not self-seeking,
it is not easily angered,
it keeps no record of wrongs.
Love does not delight in evil
but rejoices with the truth.
It always protects, always trusts,
always hopes, always perseveres.
Love never fails. . . .
And now these three remain:
faith, hope and love.
But the greatest of these is love.

It is my opinion that Kristen should contact her attorney with regards to Sanderscum advances on her all during filming and then the after affects. She looks so uncomfortable in some of those shots of her with him. AND Rob, For years before and the 4 you have now, you wanted Kristen Stewart. She made a mistake, so what do you do…Run and HIde instead of facing the problem and solving it. The girl loves you and you her. I can understand why you need time, but for gosh sakes don't leave the country. You both need some time to make sure you want one another, You are the first people I have ever seen that I would call "soul mates"…How fortunate. Reconciliation is possible and hopefully probable. Make sure you stay in touch with one another frequently. I will be praying for you both. This whole thing will only make you stronger. Listen to your heart. NOT the dear family and no it all friends who know what is best for you…..There are times PRIDE should take a back seat………….Love you both

Many ppl do thingsthat are very wrong, but sometimeswhen we truely love someone we consider that maybe that love is strong enoughto bring to ppl back together. I agree rob wat happened is wrong but let the healing being between you and kristen. Your friend need to support you not say get rid of her. Follow your heart and head, goto counseling if need be. Good luck doris from wisconsin

God pls make everything all right for them, it hurts to see them like that… If not just stop ppl calling her all sorts of names, she been punish enough. It seems that Rupert not punish at all, because he's a man??? It's not fair, it's takes two to claps hand. Why only Kristen takes the blame?? How about Robert? To take a woman to cheat there must have some problem with him too… Behind close door. Hope they work it out sooner or later. If there's still love in them, pls help them….. Don't give up so easily pls.

God I wish they would just get back together and work this out, I know she cheated but can't you see how hurt she is, look how they call her all kinds of bad names, she loves you, she make a big mistake but I think she has paid for what she's done. If you listen to your friends your just stupid, you should listen to your heart and see that she's in so much pain for you. She has lost a lot more then you have, movies, friends, and herself, also her pride to. I'm about sick of this whole thing, you know you still love her, but you just let those so called Friends tell you what to do, I feel sorry for you, you could be going to counseling and finding out why this happened and you might just have a happy life.
